Bushra Shaikh: Israel could not sustain a prolonged...
Israel could not sustain a prolonged war with Iran on its own. It would lose. For Donald Trump, choosing this prolonged, costly war for Israel, will inevitably result in presidency suicide. Not only is this war unpopular with Americans, so is he.
Pouria Zeraati: From this moment on, every time the Islamic Republic...
Important/ Trump: 'From this moment on, every time the Islamic Republic fires at a ship in the Strait of Hormuz, whether with a missile, rocket, drone, or any other weapon, America will respond by bombing and destroying a bridge or power plant; even bridges and power plants located near Tehran or inside the capital itself.'
Andrew Bridgen: Russia appears to be isolating...
Russia appears to be isolating Odesa before a major offensive. Moscow refuses another call for a ceasefire in place from EU powers. NATO’s plan was always to use the proxy war in Ukraine to weaken Russia and its economy, it has actually weakened NATO and the European economies.
Felix Rex: Was Trump right to attack Iran...
Was Trump right to attack Iran because of what they might do if we attacked them? Consider the fact, that Iran refuses to be curb stomped by the the US/Israel and in turn this not only humiliates Trump daily, but is contesting far more than Washington’s control over the Strait of Hormuz: it is challenging the architecture of American power across the Middle East.Bushra Shaikh: Marco Rubio is signaling diplomacy...
Marco Rubio is signaling diplomacy only after nine consecutive nights of attacks on Iran failed to move the needle. Even military escalation couldn't produce the outcome Washington was seeking. This can be seen as a strategic success for Iran.
Craig Murray: So the UK continues to be an active part...
So the UK continues to be an active part of the illegal war of aggression against Iran. No surprises there. Labour Friends of Israel still rule.
Bushra Shaikh: I'm back from Iran...
I'm back from Iran and one thing was unmistakable: I didnt meet a single Iranian who supported U.S. attacks on their country. Any dissenting voices have turned against Donald Trump. Bombing their country and murdering their school children was the red line.Pouria Zeraati: Israeli sources...
Important/ Israeli sources: The United States has informed Israel that it intends to intensify military operations against the regime in the coming days. Israel will carry out a preemptive strike if it concludes that the regime intends to extend its attacks here as well.Craig Murray: American attacks on Iran...
American attacks on Iran are back to full intensity. Israel burns children to death in tents in Gaza every night. Israeli settlers lynch farmers in the West Bank every day. Genocide continues apace in South Lebanon. But it seems the world got bored and moved on.Alex Wickham: Trump sets himself up for a week...
Trump sets himself up for a week one row with Andy Burnham by overhyping his coming North Sea announcement (likely limited to tiebacks and a positive steer on projects like Jackdaw). And Burnham has still yet to announce his position on UK bases for US Iran strikes.Bushra Shaikh: Donald Trump may be the only U.S. president...
Donald Trump may be the only U.S. president to strengthen the argument for nuclear weapons by bombing a country that wasn't building them.Pouria Zeraati: While it's been reported in the news...
While it's been reported in the news that Trump has asked Bibi that the Israelis must evacuate southern Lebanon and Syria, today it was reported that the Israeli army entered the village of "al-Samadaniyah al-Sharqiyah" in the Quneitra province in southern Syria and set up a temporary checkpoint. Israel doesn't mess around with the security of its borders with America either :)
David Icke: Head-shaker...
Head-shaker. Trump is owned by the same Global Cult that owns China. You are watching Cult theatre believing it to be real. Not at the inner core it isn't. Are we really still claiming that Trump is against the 'Globalists' when he is giving them everything they want - not least dismantling America and the war with Iran?David Icke: And who is giving the billionaire...
And who is giving the billionaire tech oligarchs all that they want and thus driving this very AI control agenda blueprinted by China? Donald Trump - your mentally-dismantling 'anti-globalist'.
Pouria Zeraati: The IRGC has claimed that two...
Important/ The IRGC has claimed that two commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz collided with mines that the regime had planted and caught fire.
David Kurten: Deliberate strikes on civilian...
Deliberate strikes on civilian water supplies in Iran by the USA are a war crime.Pouria Zeraati: America has struck another communication...
Important/ America has struck another communication bridge that the IRGC was using for transferring weapons in the east of Bandar Abbas.Bushra Shaikh: There was no justification...
There was no justification for the U.S. to go to war with Iran. No reason at all. And because Donald Trump cannot admit he got it wrong, his ego is intent on making even more stupid decisions.Pouria Zeraati: Image of the communication route...
Important/ Image of the communication route between Bandar Abbas and Shiraz, which was targeted by US attacks an hour ago: The railway lines of Bandar Abbas, Iranshahr Airport in Sistan and Baluchestan, Ahvaz, Qeshm, and several other points were also targeted.
Cameron Hudson: Sudan has not been forgotten...
"Sudan has not been forgotten so much as politically abandoned." I think many Western officials would argue that this isn't true. I see their statements, warnings, condemnations and even sanctions in response to what is happening daily in Sudan. But, as long as those same countries don't take the political decisions that are available to them, namely using their political and financial relationship with the UAE as essential leverage in bringing about an end to the war, then the accusation of political abandonment will apply.Pouria Zeraati: Don't separate Vance's words...
Fact: Don't separate Vance's words in the Joe Rogan podcast from Trump's policy toward Iran and the regime. This attempt to separate Vance's positions from Trump's is another misleading story; similar to how they said early in the war that Trump's goal was just regime change. Vance's statements are the summary of the sessions in the White House where Trump has the first and last word.
Pat Condell: I don’t think JD Vance is presidential material...
I don’t think JD Vance is presidential material. It would not be good for America or the world if he succeeds Trump. Rubio on the other hand seems more on the ball, and his core beliefs are pretty sound. America could do a lot worse.
Pouria Zeraati: Trump's statements, despite often being misleading...
Trump's statements, despite often being misleading, contain important clues that allow us to somewhat guess what fate awaits Mojtaba and Vahidi and their gang; perhaps even in coordination with Qalibaf himself! 'The first group were devilish people, the second group were a bit better but had bad natures, the third group … some of them are vile. Those who are obstructing the agreement right now.'Pouria Zeraati: The semifinal game is underway...
Important/ The semifinal game is underway, and the U.S. is simultaneously striking regime positions in southern Iran. Ahvaz was hit hard, Sistan and Baluchestan too. The regime has attacked Bahrain.David Icke: Influencers' like Beck, Carlson...
Influencers' like Beck, Carlson, and the rest of the fake 'alternative' media have no idea what is happening. It's a Global Cult war for Cult ends and it will stop when the Cult wants it to stop after the reason for it is achieved. Trump is just a narcissistic gofer with a dismantling mind. Exactly the right person at exactly the right moment to front up the necessary mayhem to trash the old Cult system and replace it with the new designed to take human control into the stratosphere. That's why Trump was installed and why the 'influencers' were marshalled to put him in office - many of whom now say they oppose him after the horse is missing and the stable door swings on its hinges.
Timothy Ash: The remarkable resilience...
The remarkable resilience of the global economy and energy markets in particular during the second Iran war has created false confidence by Trump and hence a willingness to go to war with Iran for a third time. That global resilience looks to be tested again.Pouria Zeraati: The only herd that's one degree...
The only herd that's one degree ahead of the trembling ones is the Houthis. The Saudis struck their airport, and these guys lobbed two rockets toward Saudi and celebrated like this :)))Pouria Zeraati: Important/ US official...
Important/ US official to "ABC News": Tonight's US operation against regime positions in southern Iran began two hours ago and is ongoing. The IRGC attacked Bahrain an hour ago.Cameron Hudson: As Security Deteriorates...
As Security Deteriorates, Sahelian Juntas Further Stifle Civilians. I wonder how the Trump Administration will respond to its War Department telling them that their new best friends in the Sahel aren't such nice guys?Read more
