Lt Col. Daniel Davis: Iran’s Trap Is Already Set… And the U.S. Is Moving In

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 21:15:06 GMT

Analysis of US-Iran escalation questions military claims and strategy. Despite assertions of historic victory, Iran retains missile, drone, and naval capabilities; the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, impacting global oil markets.

Matthew Hoh: The Iran War Narrative Is Falling Apart

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 03:42:01 GMT

Analysis of the US-Iran conflict reveals contradictory messaging from Washington and unclear war objectives. Various forces—Israel, military-industrial complex, fossil fuel interests—pushed for war, finding a malleable leadership willing to act. Unlike predecessors who resisted escalation, current administration lacks institutional loyalty or strategic vision. Iran continues oil exports through the Strait of Hormuz at premium prices, demonstrating resilience and regional initiative. Gulf states, Europe, Japan, and South Korea face severe economic repercussions, prompting questions about their continued alignment with US policy. The discussion highlights administration incompetence, overextended US military capacity, and Iran's decentralized governance built to withstand such conflicts. With no achievable political goals and tactical focus overshadowing strategy, the war risks becoming a prolonged engagement. Resolution may only come when global market pressures or elite economic interests force consensus. This conflict could catalyze a transformative shift in global power dynamics—or deepen crisis leading to wider instability. A critical examination of imperial overreach, failed intelligence, and the human cost of war waged without clear purpose or exit strategy.

Prof. Theodore Postol: Iran War Is HERE — U.S. & Israel ATTACK & Iran’s Devastating Counterattack

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 03:47:49 GMT

Expert analysis of the US-Israel-Iran conflict reveals stark military realities. Initial airstrikes damage Iran, but Tehran's ballistic missiles enable sustained retaliation against Israel's small, urbanized territory. Air defenses on both sides show limited effectiveness against ballistic threats. Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz threatens global oil flows—Japan relies on it for 90% of crude. With thousands of mines and midget submarines, Iran can keep the strait closed long-term. US munitions production is critically constrained: ~50 Patriot interceptors/month, 8 THAAD, 1 SM-3, while Iran reportedly makes 250-300 ballistic missiles monthly in underground facilities. Visual analysis suggests interceptor success rates are far below official claims. Economic strain, rising fuel costs, and domestic political pressures may limit Western war sustainability. China provides satellite intelligence support to Iran.

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 02:40:48 GMT

Examines US-Israel military actions against Iran and strategic fallout. The Supreme Leader's assassination is analyzed as counterproductive, creating a martyr that unified Iranians behind their government rather than collapsing the regime.

Mohammad Marandi, Stanislav Krapivnik & Ray McGovern: US & Israel Strike Iran, Iran Fires Back

Sat, 28 Feb 2026 22:26:43 GMT

Experts analyze US-Israeli strikes on Iran, including a civilian school attack in Minab killing children. Parallels drawn to 2003 Iraq war false WMD narratives. Iran, prepared after 25 years of anticipation, responds with missiles and drones targeting US bases across the Persian Gulf and Israeli facilities, strategically using older munitions first to exhaust enemy defenses.

Paul Craig Roberts: Nobody Voted For This America… So How Did It Happen?

Tue, 17 Feb 2026 04:32:00 GMT

Examining US-Iran tensions: Israeli influence may be derailing nuclear talks by demanding Iran abandon its missile program—a condition Tehran cannot accept. With US military assets deployed and rhetoric escalating, risks include attacks on American forces, regional destabilization, and potential nuclear escalation. The Strait of Hormuz threatens global energy supplies. Will Russia/China provide material support to Iran or issue deterrent ultimatums? The analysis suggests the absence of an Eastern mutual defense framework enabled this crisis, while ideological agendas may override strategic realism. As negotiations reach a critical point, the central question remains: will Washington resist pressure for war, or has the path to conflict become unavoidable? A sobering look at the high-stakes geopolitics shaping the future of West Asia and global security.

Col. Jacques Baud: Iran Goes All In -This Could Be the EU’s Biggest Blunder Yet

Tue, 17 Feb 2026 02:45:34 GMT

This interview addresses EU sanctions described as extrajudicial measures restricting financial access and raising rule of law concerns. Discussion shifts to West Asia tensions: US military buildup near Iran, Geneva negotiations, and risks of unclear strategic objectives leading to regional chaos. Europe's diminished diplomatic influence is examined—fragmented foreign policy, internal divisions, and challenges developing coherent defense beyond NATO's nuclear framework. The dialogue emphasizes diplomacy over confrontation, rational engagement with global powers, and the need for unified European strategy. Concerns about erratic decision-making destabilizing global security are raised, alongside calls for peaceful resolution through dialogue and mutual cooperation rather than coercion.

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 04:54:02 GMT

Analysis of Ukraine conflict following New START treaty expiration, with Russia advancing militarily while seeking U.S.-guaranteed European security architecture as NATO weakens. Discussion of European military incapacity and divergent hawkish/dovish voices. Examination of Iran-U.S. negotiations in Oman and Geneva amid Israeli pressure, with assessment that war with Iran would trigger catastrophic economic consequences (Strait of Hormuz closure) and military retaliation—making diplomacy the likely path forward ahead of U.S. midterms.

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 02:07:10 GMT

Analysis of escalating Middle East tensions and Iran's growing ballistic missile threat to Israel. Discussion of Israel's strategic error in attacking urban targets, justifying Iranian retaliation against cities. Simulations show how improved missile accuracy (500m CEP) combined with increased numbers could cripple Tel Aviv, Haifa and other Israeli urban centers—shutting down civil society without nuclear weapons. Critique of ineffective missile defense systems (Patriot) and examination of broader geopolitical risks: Ukraine war futility, NATO's invented Russian threat narrative, and dangerous miscalculations by political leaderships prioritizing ideology over realistic security assessments. Warning that time is not on Israel's side as Iran's capabilities grow with potential Russian/Chinese technical assistance.

Larry C. Johnson & Col. Larry Wilkerson: Russia + Iran + China: War Shield That Changes the World

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 04:10:52 GMT

Experts analyze escalating Middle East tensions as US military buildup against Iran faces serious limitations: F-35s lack range to strike Tehran from safe distances, carrier groups vulnerable to Iranian missiles and drones. Despite Trump's talk of negotiations, Netanyahu pressures for military action—with alarming risk of nuclear escalation. Iran possesses extensive missile capabilities and underground facilities Western intelligence likely underestimates, as evidenced by significant damage during the 12-day conflict with Israel. Meanwhile, Russia has abandoned hopes for US negotiations in Ukraine, accelerating military operations after failed diplomacy. Europe faces fragmentation as Germany struggles to chart an independent course amid NATO's decline. Analysis suggests US foreign policy remains driven by entrenched interests rather than presidential direction, pushing toward conflicts the military isn't positioned to win—echoing historical miscalculations like Bull Run.

Amb. Chas Freeman: The Policies Quietly HURTING America… Just Went LOUD

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 03:51:42 GMT

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions amid Epstein files scandal distracting from foreign policy. Examines Israel's push for regime change in Iran under nuclear pretext, while Tehran seeks only to prove peaceful nuclear intentions. Trump administration's unprofessional negotiation tactics contrast with Iran's firm stance against discussing missiles or regional allies. Regional dynamics shifted: China and Russia now bolster Iran's defenses; Gulf states refuse US base access for attacks; Europe sidelined. Military buildup in Azerbaijan/Armenia and Indian Ocean signals heightened war risk. If attacked, Iran vows regional response targeting Israel and US forces. Warns continued "maximum pressure" could drive Iran toward nuclear weapons capability, accelerating global proliferation amid collapsing arms control frameworks.

Analysis of escalating US-Israel-Iran tensions, with Israel pressuring Washington for military action despite US strategic limitations. Examines Iran's robust air defenses, missile capabilities, and readiness to fight—contrasted with America's depleted arsenal and inability to sustain large-scale operations. Discusses Russia-Iran military cooperation (SU-35s, Mi-28s), joint naval exercises with China, and the irreversible decline of Western industrial-military capacity. Highlights Russia's decisive edge in hypersonic weapons and strategic delivery systems after US abandonment of arms control treaties. Warns that any US attack on Iran would trigger catastrophic consequences, including potential Hormuz Strait closure. The West's geopolitical collapse accelerates as multipolar powers reshape global security architecture.

Richard D. Wolff & Michael Hudson: Is Trump Killing American Capitalism? The 2026 Economic Breakdown

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 04:00:26 GMT

Trump's second-term economic policies backfire: dollar decline fails to boost exports (US mainly ships raw materials), manufacturing jobs drop 70,000 despite tariffs, and foreign investment flees to more stable economies like China. Tariffs on steel/aluminum ironically raise production costs, making US factories uncompetitive. As Western empires decline amid rising BRICS competition, elites respond not by taxing themselves but by cutting social welfare, escalating military spending, and using divisive rhetoric to fragment the working class—while preparing repressive capacity for coming social unrest over austerity. The interview exposes how "populist" rhetoric masks policies enriching the 1% amid capitalism's deepening crisis of inequality.

Alex Krainer: Iran Vows to Open The Gates Of Hell Going On ‘OFFENSIVE AIR DEFENSE’

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 03:22:18 GMT

Analysis of escalating Middle East tensions following Trump-Netanyahu talks. Despite intense pressure from pro-Israel factions, evidence suggests Trump seeks to avoid war with Iran while negotiations continue. Israel faces growing regional isolation as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and other powers strengthen ties with Tehran—Saudi Arabia recently pledged $800B in Iranian investments. American public sentiment is shifting sharply against unconditional Israel support due to Gaza's humanitarian crisis and Epstein revelations. The US confronts a strategic choice: back a isolated Israel or align with resource-rich regional powers representing over a billion people. Meanwhile, Europe's political establishment faces imminent collapse as unsustainable policies unravel. The coming months may determine whether diplomacy prevails or Israel—potentially acting alone—triggers a catastrophic regional conflict.

Matthew Hoh: Is Netanyahu Pushing the US Into War With Iran?

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 06:38:20 GMT

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions and the likelihood of military conflict. Despite trillion-dollar defense spending, US military limitations reveal inability to simultaneously threaten multiple regions. Iranians show diminished fear of war after surviving Israel's 12-day assault. Experts argue the root issue isn't Iran's nuclear program but unresolved Palestine conflict—solution lies in Gaza, not Tehran. Discussion covers dangerous Israeli ambitions for regional dominance beyond mere deterrence, unrealistic regime change fantasies (Shah's son), weapons industry profiteering prolonging Ukraine war, and European leaders ignoring economic realities while pushing militarism. Warnings about long-term consequences: oil shocks, dollar devaluation, and accelerating global abandonment of US financial hegemony.

Russia won't relinquish territories and sees no middle ground until Kyiv's desperation forces surrender. Discussion of civilizational states—Russia's emerging identity built on traditional values, sovereignty, and non-interference versus the West's top-down liberal ideology. BRICS offers alternative model based on mutual respect and economic cooperation rather than regime change. Europe faces demographic collapse, unassimilated mass immigration, and elite detachment—heading toward inevitable internal conflict.

Scott Ritter: Trump in MAJOR Trouble — China & Russia Arm Iran With Deadly Weapons!

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 05:18:44 GMT

Analysis of escalating Middle East tensions as Netanyahu pressures Washington for military action against Iran. Experts warn any US-led attack would trigger catastrophic regional war—with Iran likely destroying Israel through ballistic missiles, potentially prompting nuclear escalation. The Trump administration shows dangerous disarray, with sycophantic advisors unwilling to challenge reckless decisions. Iran has spent years preparing for this confrontation, building missile capabilities and regional alliances with Russia and China. Diplomats from Oman and Qatar desperately seek de-escalation, recognizing no side can win this conflict. Discussion connects Gaza's humanitarian crisis to broader regional instability, while China advances plans to replace dollar dominance with renminbi. Ukraine negotiations similarly falter under incompetent US diplomacy. A "march to folly" scenario looms—leaders marching toward disaster with open eyes but no strategic foresight, risking global conflagration.

Mohammad Marandi & Larry C. Johnson: U.S. & Iran on the Brink as Critical Negotiations Unfold LIVE

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 05:05:32 GMT

Iran's strategic posture after the 12-day war: shifting from defense to offense while pursuing diplomacy in Oman. Officials warn that any U.S. or Israeli attack would trigger immediate regional retaliation—targeting oil infrastructure, Gulf bases, and Israel—collapsing global energy markets and the world economy. Despite Western pressure, Iran refuses to abandon sovereignty or regional allies. Military capabilities have expanded with Russian/Chinese cooperation: advanced air defense systems, underground missile bases, and drone networks. Public opinion in Iran increasingly supports nuclear deterrence after repeated aggression. Analysts stress that U.S. military limitations—evident in Afghanistan, Iraq, and against Houthis—make victory impossible. Iran's strategy: negotiate reasonably to expose Western intransigence while preparing for existential defense. War would devastate American interests far more than Iran's, potentially triggering domestic U.S. instability. The West's economic hegemony is already unraveling—a conflict would accelerate its collapse.

John Helmer: Shadow Fleet Showdown: U.S. Seizes Russian Tankers as Global Power Deals Unravel

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 03:51:05 GMT

Analysis of the "Anchorage formula" dispute revealing deep factional splits in Moscow: Lavrov declares the U.S. violated any Anchorage understanding through escalating tanker seizures and sanctions, while Kremlin business factions (Dmitriev) believe deals with Trump envoys can restore economic relations. The U.S. wages unprecedented naval warfare—intercepting vessels from Scotland to the Indian Ocean—aiming to strangle Russian energy exports and fracture Russia-China-India-Iran cooperation. Moscow debates whether to convoy-flagged tankers with naval escorts, risking direct U.S. confrontation. Meanwhile, European leaders show political weakness, prioritizing domestic survival over collective resistance to American pressure. The core dilemma: negotiate under duress or resist knowing escalation could trigger wider conflict. Naval brinkmanship intensifies as global trade routes become contested battlegrounds.

Larry C. Johnson & Col. Larry Wilkerson: The New Axis? Russia, Iran War Shield & China’s WARNING

Sat, 07 Feb 2026 03:54:39 GMT

Analysis of stalled US-Iran negotiations reveals deep mutual distrust following last year's failed talks. Discussion of the limited US naval presence in the region—just one carrier and three destroyers—suggests military action would be disastrous given Iran's defensive capabilities and potential Russian-Chinese response. Assessment that economic warfare, not diplomacy, drives US policy: deliberate creation of dollar shortages triggered bank collapses and currency freefall to provoke unrest. Broader context includes China-Russia coordination on alternative financial systems (CIPS) challenging dollar dominance, and Europe's self-destructive energy policies. Critical examination of US hypocrisy: Iran has killed virtually no Americans since 1979 while US actions (including enabling Saddam's chemical weapons use) contributed to hundreds of thousands of Iranian deaths. The nuclear issue masks regime change objectives

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions under Trump administration. Ambassador discusses incoherent policy lacking strategy, with Kushner/Witkoff-led Oman negotiations facing Iran's non-negotiable positions on enrichment, missiles, and regional alliances. Gulf Arab states and Turkey actively oppose war, viewing Israel—not Iran—as the region's primary instability source. China and Russia offer limited support but won't militarily defend Tehran. US interests in West Asia have sharply declined except for Israel alliance and transit routes, with Washington increasingly serving Israeli hegemonic aims. No Congressional debate on potential conflict despite military buildup. Iran maintains credible deterrent posture while facing domestic economic pressures. A lose-lose scenario looms with no clear exit strategy for Washington.

Andrei Martyanov: IT’S OVER: Iran & Russia Just Made Their Boldest Move Yet

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 03:54:56 GMT

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions under Trump, examining military realities: US lacks capacity for successful invasion of Iran due to nightmarish terrain, robust Iranian air defenses, and risk of devastating asymmetric retaliation against regional bases and Israel. Iran's doctrine has shifted offensive after demonstrating resilience in recent conflicts. Discussion covers Turkey's precarious multi-vector diplomacy, Arab states' vulnerability, and Israel's dependence on US support for any strike capability. On Ukraine, Russia maintains firm political objectives—achievable diplomatically or militarily—with US remaining a co-belligerent despite Trump's attempted exit. New START treaty expiration heightens nuclear risks, though deterrence prevents direct confrontation. The world is undergoing volatile transition toward multipolarity, with BRICS and SCO forming the nucleus of a new global order as Western hegemony decays. Nuclear weapons paradoxically provide stability amid great power realignment.

Discussion covers illegal pressure on Iran (currency manipulation, sanctions), extrajudicial killings of Latin American fishermen, and violations of international law. Europe faces impossible choices: pay U.S. "tribute," gut social welfare to fund militarization, or break from NATO. Trump's tariffs failed—U.S. manufacturing jobs fell 70,000 while Chinese exports to the rest of the world hit record highs. Energy shortages (copper, electricity) threaten both AI ambitions and military capacity. The West's desperation contrasts with BRICS expansion and shifting global trade toward China.

Alex Krainer: Iran Says “No” — Trump’s Strategy Crumbles

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 02:53:42 GMT

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions reveals military buildup as strategic theater rather than prelude to war. Trump administration appears committed to negotiating directly with Tehran while rejecting regime change agendas pushed by globalist interests. Shift from British free-trade system toward Hamiltonian economic model explains Washington's recalibration. Europe increasingly sidelined as US-Iran talks advance in Oman—echoing JCPOA's collapse where Europeans benefited while America enforced sanctions. Iran positioned as West Asia's security anchor alongside Russia and China. Epstein file revelations trigger political fallout in UK establishment. Ukraine negotiations progressing trilaterally; Europe's future role hinges on domestic political shifts toward sovereignty movements rather than current leadership hostile to Moscow. Truth emerging from classified files may accelerate institutional erosion of the old global order.

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 01:53:18 GMT

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions following Rubio's demand that Iran limit ballistic missiles—a non-starter since missiles deter Israeli attacks. Discussion covers how domestic US politics (midterms, Trump's vulnerability) prevent military action despite bluster. Iran maintains dual-track approach: negotiating on nuclear issues while refusing missile concessions, knowing they're existential for regime survival. Regional dynamics shifting as Turkey pivots toward Iran, Arab states fear regional war's economic devastation, and Iran deepens military-technical cooperation with Russia after Western hostility pushed it East. Ukraine talks examined as tools to pressure Kyiv toward capitulation, not genuine peace. New START treaty expiration at midnight triggers new nuclear arms race. Europe awakening to US—not Russia or China—as primary threat after Greenland incident exposes Washington's unreliability.

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 01:28:05 GMT

Analysis of Ukraine's deteriorating battlefield position as offensives shrink yearly due to manpower/equipment shortages. Zaporozhye identified as critical weak point where Ukrainian defenses may collapse. Western involvement deeper than acknowledged—Americans/Europeans directly operating HIMARS, Patriots and other systems. Russian military transformed into world's most combat-experienced force with effective rotation systems and volunteer recruitment, while Ukraine faces mass desertions. Economically, Russia functions as self-sufficient manufacturing power while Europe cut itself off from critical supply chains it cannot replace. On Iran: US/Israel lack capacity to destroy Iran militarily despite regional buildup; Iranian defenses bolstered by Russian S-300/400 systems and Chinese support. Strait of Hormuz closure would trigger global supply shock—not price spike—potentially collapsing European economies entirely.

Col. Larry Wilkerson: Trump Caves Under Pressure — Iran’s Capabilities Now Bigger Than Ever

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 02:42:45 GMT

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions amid military buildup in the Persian Gulf. Despite drone incidents and warships deployed, assessment suggests Trump is bluffing—not preparing for actual conflict—as no "quick decisive strike" option exists without triggering wider regional war. Netanyahu and Israel identified as primary obstacle to diplomacy, demanding unrealistic concessions like zero enrichment and missile disarmament that would leave Iran defenseless. Discussion covers Iran's legitimate security concerns, risks of accidental escalation, and how sanctions fuel instability. Russia-Iran ties strengthening while Putin remains constrained by Ukraine war. Broader critique: US foreign policy increasingly serves Israeli interests over American national security, draining Ukrainian lives to tie down Russia while ignoring opportunities for JCPOA-style diplomacy. Warning that miscalculation could trigger oil market collapse ($300/barrel) and global economic shock. Domestic US political pressures further complicate prospects for de-escalation.

Patrick Henningsen: Is a US-Iran War Really Inevitable? Iran Could Devastate the Attacks!

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 01:29:35 GMT

Analysis of escalating US-Israel-Iran tensions reveals a fragile "tactical pause" rather than genuine de-escalation. Israel demands regime change and Iran's partition, while Washington faces massive risks with minimal short-term gains from military action. Iran has achieved maximum deterrence—its missile capabilities could overwhelm Israeli defenses in sustained conflict, potentially fracturing Israeli society. The situation involves six to seven regional actors, not just three parties. Meanwhile, Russia-Iran-China alignment is rapidly deepening through economic corridors and energy ties, making Iran increasingly "sanction-proof." Arab Gulf states fear devastation from regional war and resist enabling US-Israel aggression. Critically, the US envoy lacks credibility after deceiving Tehran before Israel's June attack. With Trump's transactional approach prioritizing Israel over US interests, and Pentagon planners warning of a prolonged attrition war—not a quick victory—the path to conflict remains dangerously open despite mounting political costs at home.

John Helmer: Trump’s Reckless Strategy Hits a Wall

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 00:36:09 GMT

Analysis of current Middle East tensions reveals US retreat from confrontation with Iran due to economic pressures (falling oil prices), domestic political constraints ahead of elections, and Iran's capacity for protracted defense. Arab states remain too divided to form a unified regional position, while Turkey's mediation role is viewed with deep skepticism. Recent shifts in US-India relations reflect Washington's broader strategic retreat, though India maintains its strategic autonomy with Russia. Negotiations face complications as intermediaries lack credibility following past deceptions. Russia has significantly enhanced Iran's air and missile defense capabilities, while China's military projection remains limited despite rhetorical support. Joint naval exercises by Russia, China and Iran in the Sea of Oman demonstrate growing deterrence cooperation. The region is experiencing profound realignment beneath the surface, with traditional alliances fracturing amid Pakistan's instability and Gulf state rivalries.

Mohammad Marandi & Larry C. Johnson: If War Starts… Iran’s Retaliation Could Be DEVASTATING

Tue, 03 Feb 2026 01:09:17 GMT

Analysis of escalating US-Iran tensions reveals attack unlikely due to Iran's decades-long military preparations: vast drone/missile arsenals, underground facilities, and regional allies (Iraq, Yemen, Hezbollah) ready for all-out war—not limited retaliation. Any strike would trigger Strait of Hormuz closure, collapsing global oil markets and economies worldwide. Recent Western-backed riots in Iran failed spectacularly, exposing pre-planned destabilization attempts. While indirect negotiations have begun, deep trust deficits persist after JCPOA betrayal and ongoing Gaza slaughter. Core obstacle remains Zionist influence over US foreign policy—without Israel, US-Iran relations would normalize rapidly. Shifting multipolar world (BRICS, Russia-China-Iran axis) now constrains US unilateral action, making war economically catastrophic and militarily unwinnable for Washington. Peace remains Iran's goal, but survival demands uncompromising deterrence.

Col. Jacques Baud: Why the EU Is Failing on Every Front

Tue, 03 Feb 2026 00:17:38 GMT

EU sanctions freeze an analyst's accounts in Brussels—no court trial, no due process—leaving him unable to buy food or travel. He critiques the EU's erosion of rule of law, where political decisions bypass legal safeguards, setting dangerous precedents for citizens' rights.

The EU's foreign policy is in disarray: no unified strategy among 27 members with divergent interests, over-fixation on weakening Russia while neglecting Ukraine's future, and failure as a mediator in Palestine, Iran, and Syria. Rather than independent diplomacy, Brussels acts as a US vassal—silent on humanitarian crises, unable to counter American moves in Greenland or Venezuela.

With leadership focused solely on sustaining the Ukraine conflict to keep Washington engaged, Europe lacks coherent objectives, strategy, or credibility on the global stage—revealing a structural crisis at the heart of the Union.

Alastair Crooke: Davos Turns Awkward as Trump Corners EU Leaders

Sun, 25 Jan 2026 19:00:00 GMT

In this interview, recorded on January 25, 2026, the recent unrest in Iran is analyzed as a coordinated foreign-backed operation involving trained rioters, MEK, and Kurdish groups, aiming to destabilize the country through economic sabotage, violent riots, and false narratives. The discussion reveals how Iran’s swift internet and Starlink shutdowns disrupted external command structures, leading to the failure of the insurrection. Contrary to Western media portrayals, no significant internal fractures or elite defections occurred. The conversation also covers Trump’s renewed interest in acquiring Greenland, Europe’s strategic dependence on the U.S., and the fragility of American geopolitics amid economic pressures and midterm anxieties. Finally, the so-called “Board of Peace” is critiqued as a transactional, Trump-centered alternative to multilateral institutions, reflecting a shift away from the rules-based international order.

The discussion also covers Trump’s erratic foreign policy, Zionist influence, resource-driven motives in Venezuela and Greenland, and the broader decline of U.S. global hegemony amid rising Chinese economic power. Critiques extend to NATO’s irrelevance, Europe’s subservience, and the dangerous illusion that military force can reverse geopolitical shifts.

He critiques U.S. foreign policy as driven by domestic politics and incompetence, highlights Iran’s strengthened position amid regional tensions, and explains why Ukraine’s statehood is nearing total collapse. Topics include Trump’s Greenland ambitions, failed Western interventions in Latin America, and the irrelevance of institutions like the UN compared to BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

Richard Wolff & Michael Hudson: This Could Break NATO: Trump, Rutte, and Europe’s Last Stand

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 01:49:49 GMT

At Davos 2026, analysts dissect how U.S. geopolitical moves—like targeting Greenland and pushing a “rules-based order”—mask a deeper economic agenda: preserving dollar hegemony and blocking Eurasian integration. Trump’s “peace” rhetoric is seen as a pretext for military-economic control, while Europe grapples with subordination or resistance. The real global shift lies in the rise of China’s state-capitalist model, outpacing Western economies in key sectors like EVs. Meanwhile, grassroots movements—from Minneapolis to France—signal growing domestic unrest and rejection of neoliberal orthodoxy. The discussion underscores a tectonic realignment: anti-colonial sentiment, labor revolts, and the failure of U.S.-led unipolarity.

The conversation explores the symbolic power of political figures, the crumbling Western narrative of dominance, and internal crises—from Epstein fallout to immigration and economic decline—that undermine Europe’s stability. A potential peace emerges not from detailed plans, but from a tacit understanding between two leaders who see beyond conventional diplomacy. The old order is fracturing, and a new world is quietly taking shape.

Laith Marouf: Resistance Locked & Loaded for the Next Big Clash

Wed, 20 Aug 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Syria’s new de facto authorities have reportedly engaged in direct talks with Israel—a historic shift, as previous regimes never recognized Israel. Critics view this as a betrayal, aligning with long-standing warnings about extremist factions undermining Arab and Muslim resistance. Meanwhile, in Lebanon, growing opposition from Sunni, Shia, Druze, and other groups challenges government moves against Hezbollah. A broad coalition, including nationalist and religious parties, rejects disarmament of the resistance, warning of consequences. Iran has reportedly issued a clear stance: no attacks on neighbors, but any attempt to disarm Hezbollah will face serious repercussions. The Lebanese government faces collapse if it continues its current path, with ministers boycotting sessions. Despite regional pressures, internal unity against foreign interference appears to be strengthening across communities in Lebanon.

The discussion highlights a fundamental disconnect: one leader pushes a land swap proposal, showing no grasp of the other’s core security concerns, especially NATO expansion and U.S. missile deployments near Russian borders.

A candid, hard-hitting discussion on U.S. foreign policy, Israel’s actions in Gaza, and growing public disillusionment. The conversation covers Hezbollah’s role in Lebanon, the failure of U.S. interventions in the Middle East, and internal breakdowns within the Israeli military leading up to October 7. Critics challenge Israel’s claims of humanitarian efforts, citing evidence of widespread civilian casualties and starvation. The interview highlights shifting media narratives, with figures like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens influencing public opinion. AIPAC faces criticism for lobbying influence, while the UN’s potential to intervene under Chapter VII remains unfulfilled. The speakers warn of domestic instability, a broken FBI, and elite-driven technocracy. With rising global tensions, the U.S. risks overreach—militarizing drug wars, alienating allies, and ignoring war crimes. The bottom line: the current path is unsustainable, and the American people are increasingly skeptical of endless wars and official narratives. Truth, accountability, and moral clarity are urgently needed.

Patrik Baab: Trump’s Clock Is Ticking… EU Doubles Down, Russia Unmoved

Sat, 09 Aug 2025 01:00:00 GMT

A stark warning from a German journalist on the Ukraine war’s devastating trajectory. He argues the conflict is a U.S.-led proxy war against Russia, with Europe—especially Germany—acting as a compliant vessel. The German leadership, he claims, is "transatlantically corrupted," sacrificing national interests and public will to serve U.S. geopolitical and economic goals, including deindustrializing Germany and reviving its military-industrial complex. Propaganda dominates mainstream media, while the public remains misinformed and apathetic. The war, he says, is already lost by NATO’s standards, yet leaders refuse to negotiate, ignoring Russia’s clear demands: Ukrainian neutrality, recognition of annexed territories, and regime change in Kiev. With trust destroyed and talks superficial, escalation—possibly involving NATO—is likely. The speaker sees Germany sleepwalking into a catastrophic war, with no real political opposition and rising nuclear danger. He also condemns European complicity in the Gaza genocide, warning of global moral collapse. Without mass public resistance, he foresees a Third World War, urging awareness and action before it's too late.

While details remain tightly guarded, Russian officials indicate the U.S. presented an offer they find "acceptable," paving the way for possible direct talks. The battlefield momentum favors Russian forces, who are advancing in key regions. NATO is portrayed as a "paper tiger," with Western military capabilities described as severely degraded. The discussion highlights desperation in Washington and European disarray, as strategic failures and broken alliances weaken their position.

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Economic and geopolitical analysis reveals how aggressive U.S. trade policies, including tariffs and sanctions, are backfiring, pushing countries to reorient trade away from America. The discussion highlights a global shift as nations resist U.S. pressure, seek economic independence, and build alternative systems. China’s export surge despite tariffs contrasts with rising U.S. inflation and stagnation, signaling a deflationary global trend. The weaponization of trade and finance, along with failed diplomatic coercion, is accelerating the decline of U.S. influence. Countries are responding with non-tariff protections, domestic investment, and new alliances, while American isolation deepens. The video also touches on media censorship of these systemic issues and the psychological denial within U.S. political culture, drawing parallels with Israel’s self-destructive policies. A new international consciousness is emerging—one focused on sovereignty, multipolarity, and resistance to economic imperialism.

Dmitry Orlov: Trump’s Threat to Russia? USELESS! Here’s Why Russia Doesn’t Care

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 01:00:00 GMT

In this candid interview, a geopolitical analyst breaks down the realities behind U.S. foreign policy, Trump’s approach to Russia, and the Ukraine conflict. He argues that ultimatums and sanctions are ineffective, as Russia won’t respond to pressure and key U.S. allies like India and China won’t comply with demands to isolate Moscow. The discussion highlights the disconnect in Washington, where leaders lack accurate intelligence and fail to grasp Russia’s strategic position. The analyst dismisses recent diplomatic talks as meaningless without substantive change, emphasizing that the U.S. is stuck in a cycle of denial, driven more by domestic politics and military-industrial interests than genuine diplomacy. He also touches on the broader decline of Western economies, contrasting them with the resilience of Russia and China. Ultimately, the conversation suggests that without a fundamental shift in understanding and policy, no breakthrough in Ukraine or global relations is possible. The interview ends with technical difficulties cutting the connection.

Laith Marouf: RESISTANCE STRIKES BACK! Israel Fails to Disarm the Unbreakable Force!

Thu, 07 Aug 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Lebanon is under intense pressure as foreign envoys demand Hezbollah's disarmament, sparking nationwide protests and political tension. A recent ultimatum threatens war if Hezbollah doesn’t surrender weapons in phases within 15 and 60 days. Hezbollah refuses, vowing to resist until Lebanon can defend itself. The Lebanese army, weak and under-equipped, lacks capacity to confront either Israel or internal threats, having previously collapsed against ISIS and HTS invasions. Public opinion overwhelmingly supports resistance, with even traditional opponents acknowledging the need for Hezbollah’s arms against existential threats. Meanwhile, Syria’s new regime controls little beyond major cities, while Israel occupies the south, the U.S. loots oil via Kurdish proxies, and Turkey profits from selling Azerbaijani energy to Syria. In Gaza, genocide continues with Western arms and complicity, fueling global outrage. Veterans and civilians alike are turning against their governments’ support for Israel, signaling a breaking point in the social contract. Western promises to recognize Palestine are dismissed as hollow distractions. The message is clear: disarmament leads to destruction, and resistance remains the only deterrent against aggression.

Sanctions and military threats backfire, pushing BRICS nations closer together and boosting Iran’s oil exports and regional influence. The failed Israeli attack on Iran only increased its confidence and capabilities, while exposing Western miscalculations. Europe’s declining relevance, driven by subservience to U.S. policy, contrasts with rising global skepticism toward Western narratives—especially on Palestine, where awareness of the Gaza genocide is shifting public opinion worldwide.

John Helmer: No Way Out, Trump's Ultimatum FORCES Russia, China, Iran and India to FIGHT!

Wed, 06 Aug 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Escalating tensions between the U.S. and Russia take center stage as nuclear threats and geopolitical maneuvers intensify. Following inflammatory remarks from Russian officials, a U.S. response involving nuclear submarine deployments raises alarms, interpreted as a performative escalation rather than strategic deterrence. With new hypersonic missile deployments by Russia and looming secondary sanctions, diplomatic efforts appear stalled. The discussion examines failed negotiation attempts, U.S. pressure on India and China over energy ties with Russia, and growing multi-front conflicts encompassing Ukraine, Iran, and the Indo-Pacific. Europe’s role in escalating military tensions is critiqued, highlighting a dangerous disconnect between government policies and public opinion. The analysis reveals a shift from strategic "sequencing" to simultaneous confrontations, increasing global instability. Efforts to weaponize trade, disrupt energy supplies, and leverage regional allies like Pakistan signal a broader, more aggressive U.S. strategy under Trump. Meanwhile, China and India face mounting pressure to choose sides, threatening global economic and security balances. The interview underscores the fragility of diplomacy in an era of capricious leadership, where deals are discarded for shifting priorities, and the risk of miscalculation grows ever higher.

Amid rising U.S.-Russia tensions, nuclear escalation fears grow as submarines and missiles are deployed near Russia. Critics condemn the move as reckless, undermining peace efforts. Despite claims of wanting to end the Ukraine war, U.S. actions signal continued confrontation, driven by deep-state interests and a doctrine of American hegemony. Europe, unprepared and politically compromised, faces existential risk. The absence of a coherent peace strategy, combined with propaganda and inflated casualty figures, reveals a dangerous path toward potential global conflict. Meanwhile, Israel’s influence on U.S. foreign policy is questioned, with allegations of blackmail through operations like Epstein’s network shaping decisions in the Middle East. The discussion warns of a looming catastrophe, fueled by hubris, blunders, and a ruling elite disconnected from reality—echoing the diplomatic failures that led to World War II. With mutual security ignored and leaders unwilling to confront systemic power structures, the world edges closer to a war that could be terminal. Time, the guest warns, is running out.

A candid, critical discussion on global geopolitics, focusing on U.S. foreign policy under Trump, nuclear tensions with Russia, and the weaponization of diplomacy. The interview highlights the dangers of misinformation, media manipulation, and the erosion of rational discourse. It examines the U.S. response to Medvedev’s remarks, the myth of diplomatic engagement with Iran and Russia, and the strategic pushback by BRICS nations, especially Brazil’s stance on dedollarization. The conversation underscores how American actions—driven by military-industrial interests and a "settler mentality"—are accelerating global fragmentation rather than fostering cooperation. With sharp insights into Europe’s complicity in the Gaza conflict, the futility of NATO’s anti-Russia posture, and the looming threat of false-flag operations, the dialogue paints a grim picture of a world where diplomacy is dead. Yet, it finds hope in sovereign nations resisting coercion and building alternative systems. Recorded near the sea, the setting contrasts with the urgency of the message: despite the chaos, we must keep fighting for truth and justice.

Larry C. Johnson: Trump Goes NUCLEAR on Russia - Iran Mobilizes Supreme DEFENSE Council!

Tue, 05 Aug 2025 01:00:00 GMT

A stark look at global tensions in 2025: Trump's erratic behavior, fueled by possible dementia and confabulation, escalates nuclear rhetoric with Russia, while ignoring facts on Ukraine’s casualties. The Gaza genocide continues, enabled by U.S. complicity and Israeli blackmail tactics, with 550 former Israeli security chiefs warning it’s destroying Israel.

Andrei Martyanov: Trump Left Hanging - Russia's Cold Silence Sends a Message

Mon, 04 Aug 2025 11:00:00 GMT

A scathing critique of U.S. foreign policy, military overreach, and political decay. The discussion covers the myth of American military superiority, exposed by Israel’s failures against Iran and the hollow narrative around Ukraine. The speaker argues NATO is being systematically demilitarized, U.S. elites are ideologically driven and incompetent, and Western institutions are collapsing. Trump’s push for a ceasefire is dismissed as irrelevant, as Russia continues its mission. The moral bankruptcy of U.S. support for Israel’s actions in Gaza is condemned as complicity in genocide. Europe is deemed finished, ruled by degenerate elites, while Russia, resilient and resource-rich, no longer fears Western threats. The era of U.S. global dominance is over.

Ray McGovern & Graham E. Fuller: Trump Feeding Lies or Swallowed by Them

Mon, 04 Aug 2025 01:00:00 GMT

A candid discussion on global tensions, focusing on shifting Western attitudes toward Russia, the Ukraine war’s trajectory, and NATO’s future. The guests analyze political dynamics in Europe, leadership changes, and how sanctions and military policies are reshaping alliances. They explore Russia’s strategic patience, the myth of its expansionist threats, and growing European disillusionment with U.S.-led foreign policy. The conversation touches on potential flashpoints in the Caucasus, Iran’s regional role, and Turkey’s balancing act. A key theme is the erosion of trust in Western narratives, with observations on Zelensky’s declining image, Ukraine’s internal challenges, and possible leadership transitions. The interview also examines Trump’s unpredictable rhetoric, its impact on diplomacy, and whether it serves as a negotiation tactic or reflects deeper instability. Ultimately, the discussion highlights a world order in flux, where old alliances are fraying, new power centers are emerging, and the risk of miscalculation grows as Europe faces economic and strategic reckoning.

John Helmer: Iran Beefing Up Defense System S-400, Zelensky Faces Total Meltdown

Sun, 03 Aug 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Amid escalating tensions, reports suggest Iran may have received and tested a Russian S-400 air defense system near Isfahan, signaling a major shift in regional military dynamics. This potential deployment could deter U.S. and Israeli airstrikes by putting their aircraft within range. The recent high-level call between Moscow and Tel Aviv, marked by unusual silence and delayed public response, hints at a strategic warning: Russian-backed defenses may now actively protect Iranian territory. Meanwhile, Ukraine's internal political struggles and Western pressure reveal deeper fractures, as peace efforts stall. With the U.S. rejecting negotiations and demanding capitulation, Russia appears to have abandoned hopes of diplomatic engagement, focusing instead on military advancement and securing its strategic borders. The global order is shifting—diplomacy gives way to deterrence, and the risk of broader conflict grows.

Col. Larry Wilkerson: Defeated Once, Israel Faces a Collapse It May Not Survive

Sun, 03 Aug 2025 11:00:00 GMT

A powerful and emotional discussion on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, highlighting mass starvation, civilian suffering, and the use of food as a weapon of war. The interview condemns Israeli actions under Netanyahu, drawing stark comparisons to historical atrocities and criticizing U.S. complicity. Eyewitness accounts from military veterans and medical personnel reveal horrific conditions and deliberate violence against civilians. The conversation also addresses global political inaction, while spotlighting voices like Brazil’s Lula challenging the narrative. It warns of a shifting world order, U.S. imperial decline, and the dangers of escalating conflict with Iran. With deep moral outrage, the speaker calls for accountability, justice, and a reevaluation of global alliances, stressing that silence and complicity are no longer tenable.

Scott Ritter: Russia Just DEFIED the U.S., We'll End the War on OUR Terms!

Sun, 03 Aug 2025 01:00:00 GMT

A stark assessment of global tensions, highlighting how U.S. foreign policy—driven by militarism and intelligence operations—has pushed the world toward nuclear brinkmanship. The discussion critiques blind support for Ukraine, exposing how Western actions alienate Russia and drain American military resources. It argues that figures promoting endless conflict serve corporate and political interests, not national security. Europe’s subservience to U.S. policy is condemned, while the reality of limited military stockpiles and failed diplomacy is laid bare. The war in Ukraine is deemed unsustainable, with no path to victory, only escalation. The true goal, according to the analysis, is not peace but regime change and strategic encirclement of Russia. Meanwhile, Armenia’s geopolitical gamble is warned as suicidal, with Russia as its only real ally. The narrative calls for a reset—normalizing relations, ending Russophobia, and rejecting warmongering elites. Without course correction, collapse is inevitable. The message: sovereignty matters, trust is broken, and the current path leads only to ruin.

Mohammad Marandi: No More Cover-Ups!, Iran Issues Final Warning to Trump

Sat, 02 Aug 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Iran asserts its victory in the recent 12-day conflict with Israel, exposing Israeli and U.S. military overreach and depletion of defense systems. Iranian officials warn of a stronger response if attacked again, while dismissing Trump’s threats as erratic and disrespectful. Iran continues advancing its nuclear and defense programs, unphased by Western pressure. The interview highlights U.S. complicity in Israel’s actions in Gaza, calls European support for Israel hypocritical, and dismisses the two-state solution as a deceptive facade. Iran strengthens ties with Russia and China, rejects foreign interference in Armenia’s sovereignty, and warns against any threat to the Zangezur corridor. Erdogan and Azerbaijan’s alignment with Israel is criticized as short-sighted, with predictions of regional realignment as U.S. influence wanes. The West’s moral credibility is eroding, while Iran positions itself as a resilient counterforce in a shifting global order.

Amb. Chas Freeman: Gaza's Silent Hell, Genocide and Starvation in Real Time

Sat, 02 Aug 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Ambassador, how do you respond to Colonel Aguilar’s testimony about Amir, the child killed by IDF after showing profound respect to aid workers, and the broader reality of Gaza’s humanitarian sites being designed as death traps?
Given the growing number of European countries and Canada considering recognition of Palestine, do you see this as genuine support for Palestinian self-determination or merely a symbolic slap at Israel?
With Steve Witkoff engaging in talks with Netanyahu and touring Gaza’s aid sites, do you believe these are sincere diplomatic efforts or orchestrated propaganda that undermine real peace?
How do you assess the potential for renewed conflict between Iran and Israel, especially in light of Iran’s likely response if attacked again, and does Witkoff have any credibility in de-escalating tensions?
Considering the erratic and coercive nature of U.S. foreign policy under Trump—tariffs, secondary sanctions, and bullying tactics—when do you think a counter-revolution against such self-destructive policies might emerge?

Ambassador Chas Freeman:

Colonel Aguilar exposed a horrifying truth: the so-called humanitarian aid sites in Gaza are death traps, deliberately designed like cattle chutes leading to slaughter. Amir’s story—his dignity, desperation, and murder—is emblematic of a system where the U.S. and Israel jointly orchestrate a genocide under the guise of aid. The IDF shoots civilians leaving the sites, and American contractors mimic this behavior, showing a complete lack of discipline and humanity. This is un-American and immoral.
Recognition of Palestine by Western nations is too little, too late. It’s politically dishonest—meant more as a rebuke to Israel than a real step toward Palestinian self-determination. The land has been largely seized, Gaza is being ethnically cleansed, and no symbolic gesture can undo that. It reflects Western hypocrisy: lofty rhetoric with no meaningful action, continuing a tradition of empty words in West Asia.
Steve Witkoff’s efforts are a charade. His tour of Gaza with an evangelical ambassador was political theater, contradicting the reality exposed by Colonel Aguilar. Witkoff has no credibility—he misled Iran, enabling an Israeli attack, and acts as Netanyahu’s mouthpiece. Demanding Hamas’s surrender is not negotiation; it’s a demand for national suicide. Real diplomacy requires talking to your opponents, not demonizing them.
Iran is unlikely to show restraint in a future conflict. After suffering civilian casualties, they will target Israeli population centers, not just military sites. The current U.S. approach, pushing maximalist demands disguised as American policy but rooted in Israeli interests, ensures escalation. Iran doesn’t seek Israel’s destruction; they’ve shown willingness to coexist, as history with Cyrus and Esther shows. But Israel refuses to recognize its neighbors’ rights, making peace impossible.
Trump’s foreign policy is an extortion racket—arbitrary tariffs, secondary sanctions, and economic bullying that harm the U.S. more than others. It alienates allies, destroys trust, and undermines American industry. Policies like taxing steel but not orange juice reveal a shallow understanding of economics. This self-destructive approach may eventually trigger a counter-revolution, but for now, it reflects a deeper crisis of American leadership and morality.

Larry C. Johnson & Col. Larry Wilkerson: Iran WARNS, Yemen Rewrites the Rules, Russia SNUBS Trump

Sat, 02 Aug 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the reality behind the humanitarian aid being delivered in Gaza, and who is actually controlling it?
How can the U.S. justify its support for Israel given the allegations of war crimes and the destruction of aid infrastructure in Gaza?
Why are European leaders delaying recognition of a Palestinian state until September, and what real impact will it have?
What are the implications of Russia’s military actions and strategic gains, particularly in relation to NATO and U.S. military credibility?
How is the shifting global order—especially the rise of BRICS and declining Western leverage—affecting U.S. foreign policy and economic threats like sanctions?

Col. Larry Wilkerson:

Humanitarian aid in Gaza is largely controlled by the IDF; only four distribution centers remain, all in active combat zones, effectively weaponizing aid access.
The U.S. is complicit in war crimes by enabling Israel’s actions; military and political support continues despite clear violations of the Geneva Conventions.
Delaying Palestinian statehood recognition is a political excuse; real pressure on Netanyahu won’t come from symbolic UN gestures but from cutting military aid.
The U.S. military is overstretched and declining in capability, while Russia has shown pragmatic strength, exposing American strategic weakness and naval fecklessness.
Sanctions on Russia are ineffective because Russia doesn’t need the West; meanwhile, the U.S. relies on Russian fertilizer, showing economic interdependence and policy hypocrisy.

Larry Johnson:

Aid operations in Gaza are facade—IDF controls all access points, and contractors like Safe Reach Solutions take direct orders from the Israeli military.
The U.S. intelligence on Ukraine comes from Ukrainian sources, not human intelligence in Russia, making it unreliable and potentially biased.
Netanyahu uses war to survive politically; he will provoke conflict with Iran to distract from domestic crises and maintain power.
Trump’s foreign policy is incoherent—he talks tough on Russia but ignores that trade is minimal, and his focus on deals ignores structural global shifts.
Countries like India and China are circumventing U.S. sanctions through black markets, proving that Western economic pressure is no longer effective.

Dmitry Orlov: Israel's WORST Defeat Yet - Putin Stuns Trump with Bombshell

Fri, 01 Aug 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Several countries, including Spain, the UK, France, and Canada, are moving to recognize Palestine. How do you see this shift affecting Israel globally, especially given U.S. military limitations revealed during the Iran-Israel conflict?
Given Israel’s reliance on U.S. support and the reported use of 25% of THAAD missiles in just 12 days of conflict, do you believe the U.S. recognizes its own limitations in sustaining Israel militarily?
If Netanyahu were replaced, could Israeli society shift its mindset, especially after the realities exposed in Gaza, Syria, and the Iran conflict?
Do key U.S. supporters of Israel understand the changing geopolitical reality, or are they clinging to outdated allegiances?
With Trump attacking BRICS nations through tariffs—50% on Brazil, 25% on India—could this be part of a broader strategy to pressure Russia and undermine BRICS?

Dimitri Orlov:

European recognition of Palestine is symbolic and irrelevant. Israel and the U.S. have ignored global consensus for decades. The real issue is Israel’s inability to defend itself, as shown during the Iran strikes, and its dependence on NATO and U.S. missile defense, which is unsustainable.
The U.S. is in terminal decline as an energy and military power. Shale oil production is collapsing, and it cannot replace Russian or Iranian energy. Trump’s claims about “turning up the spigot” show he doesn’t understand energy markets or production limits.
Replacing Netanyahu won’t change Israel. The country’s survival depends on U.S. money and weapons. Internal politics are driven by zealots, but the real lever is American funding. Once that stops, Israel changes overnight.
Trump’s support base includes aging pro-Israel oligarchs who won’t change their stance. Public opinion turning against Israel means nothing because the U.S. isn’t a democracy—money and lobbying decide policy, not polls.
Trump’s tariffs don’t harm BRICS; they tax American consumers. Countries like India and China easily bypass sanctions—buying Russian oil via third countries. The U.S. can’t control global trade anymore, and its military is too weak to confront peer powers like Russia or China.

Alex Krainer: Russia & U.S. Lock Horns, The Fight Just Got Personal

Fri, 01 Aug 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Given the current geopolitical stalemate in Ukraine and the Middle East, do you believe the United States can realistically afford to pursue peace under a Trump administration?
Despite Trump’s past intentions to withdraw from global conflicts, why does he continue policies like arming Ukraine and imposing sanctions, which seem to align with the deep state?
Why is Trump engaging in public confrontations with figures like Medvedev, and isn’t this counterproductive to diplomacy, especially when Medvedev represents Russian policy?
How can Europe afford massive defense and energy deals with the U.S., and isn’t it clear that both sides lack the capacity to fulfill these agreements?
Considering repeated failures—like the Ukraine war and the Iran-Israel tensions—why does the U.S. leadership seem unable to adapt, and where is the learning curve?

Alex Krainer:

Trump’s actions are likely strategic deception rather than genuine alignment with the old imperial order. His rhetoric may mask a long-term goal of placing the U.S. in a dominant position within a multipolar world, not returning to Biden-era policies.
Trump’s first-term intentions to withdraw from Afghanistan, Syria, and Europe were sabotaged by the deep state, and Russiagate was a British-led operation designed to undermine him and preserve U.S. imperial engagement.
The public feud with Medvedev is performative—noise meant for domestic and deep state consumption. It distracts from behind-the-scenes efforts to position the U.S. favorably with rising powers like Russia and China.
The EU deal is less about economics and more about exposing the EU’s weakness. By forcing von der Leyen into an unfulfillable agreement, Trump has undermined the bloc’s legitimacy, potentially accelerating its fragmentation.
Trump’s tariffs on BRICS nations are not truly about punishment, but about protecting U.S. industry and reindustrializing America under the guise of geopolitical conflict, using global tensions as a pretext for domestic economic transformation.

Paul Craig Roberts: Does the U.S. Want Peace Or Endless Conflict

Tue, 29 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Do you think European efforts to satisfy Donald Trump are primarily aimed at prolonging U.S. involvement in the Ukraine war?
Trump has reset his deadline for Russia—what kind of progress is he actually seeking, and what might happen after this new deadline?
Why does Europe seem to be increasing its dependence on the United States despite Trump’s clear pivot to Asia and lack of strategic inclusion of Europe?
Given the UK’s role in Ukraine and its intelligence activities—such as the attack on Russian bombers—is Britain now acting independently or still as a U.S. proxy?
What does Trump actually want from Hamas, and why has he been unable to achieve any breakthrough in negotiations?

Paul Craig Roberts:

Trump views foreign policy like a businessman: he’s shifting the financial burden of European defense and Ukraine’s war onto NATO/EU while eliminating trade imbalances. Europeans comply because they fear being abandoned and want to stay tied to U.S. security, despite growing authoritarian tendencies in their own free speech policies.
Trump isn’t seriously pursuing peace. The war in Ukraine is an American proxy conflict, and Zelensky can’t end it. Putin has repeatedly stated the root cause is U.S. military encirclement and demands a mutual security agreement—but Trump ignores this, making his deadlines meaningless posturing.
Europe long ago surrendered real sovereignty, associating national independence with the trauma of WWII. The EU functions as an unelected, authoritarian structure, and countries like Germany and France are economically and politically dependent on the U.S., making true strategic autonomy impossible.
The UK is not acting independently—it’s operating as a proxy for Washington. The drone attack on Russian strategic bombers was likely orchestrated by British intelligence but only with U.S. approval. This allows Trump to maintain plausible deniability while keeping pressure on Russia.
Hamas has nothing left to negotiate. Israel has declared all of Palestine as its own, leaving no room for a Palestinian state. Any surrender would mean execution. Trump and U.S. allies like Lindsey Graham are calling to “finish the job,” meaning the complete destruction of Gaza—starvation, bombing, and extermination—under the guise of military necessity.

Larry C. Johnson & Pepe Escobar: Trump's Pressure Backfires, Russia Ignites Unstoppable BRICS Unity

Tue, 29 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your take on the changing or escalating dynamics between Russia and the United States, especially after Trump’s new deadline for Russia?
Why does Donald Trump seem to benefit more from continuing the Ukraine conflict rather than ending it?
How do you explain Europe’s ability to convince neutral countries like Switzerland and Austria to abandon neutrality, despite their leaders appearing disconnected from public opinion?
Do you think Russia still hopes for a major geopolitical agreement with the U.S. and China, like a “Yalta 2.0,” especially under Trump?
What do you anticipate will happen next in Gaza, especially after Lindsey Graham urged Netanyahu to “finish the job”?

Pepe Escobar:

Trump’s deadlines are meaningless theatrics. He doesn’t understand the Ukraine war’s roots as a U.S.-led proxy conflict, and even if explained, he’d never admit its failure. His statements are toxic noise dominating global discourse.
Trump is powerless to end the war. He can’t deploy troops or supply sufficient weapons. His threats are empty, and Putin likely sees him as a dangerous buffoon, not a serious negotiator.
European leaders like von der Leyen represent old money elites who control Brussels and national policies. Their power is protected by interlocking financial and political networks, making them untouchable despite public discontent.
Russia initially hoped for a “Yalta 2.0” with Trump and Xi, but Trump’s erratic behavior has destroyed any trust. He’s incapable of serious geopolitical negotiation and only pursues self-aggrandizing “deals.”
The West’s narrative of “Russian aggression” is a manufactured lie. In reality, the U.S. has provoked Russia for decades, and Europe is now suffering the consequences of its own subservience and delusion.

Larry Johnson:

Trump is impotent in foreign policy. He can’t end the war or change reality. His deadlines are performative nonsense, and no one—especially Putin—takes him seriously anymore.
Europe’s leaders are weak, delusional, and militarily incapable. Countries like the UK have tiny armies and lack the industrial base or logistics to sustain real combat, yet they provoke Russia recklessly.
Leaders like Macron were engineered by financial elites (e.g., Rothschild Bank). The French political system is a closed, incestuous circle protected by media and wealth, disconnected from the people.
The U.S. acts like a global arsonist, creating chaos in places like Southeast Asia to destabilize rivals. The Thai-Cambodian conflict, for example, likely has American fingerprints behind it.
Israel is heading for self-destruction. It’s overextended, losing soldiers to trauma and suicide, and internally divided. Like the Soviet Union, it may collapse under its own moral and strategic bankruptcy, not from external invasion.

Col. Jacques Baud: Can Israel Survive Its Own Actions - The EU's Silent War Strategy

Mon, 28 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the current status of the Gaza situation after Steve Witkoff’s failed negotiations with Hamas?
Why do Western powers continue to use the term "terrorist" as a barrier to negotiation, and how does this hinder conflict resolution?
How do you explain the lack of legitimacy of the Israeli state, especially in light of its security policies and actions against civilians?
Given Israel’s actions in Gaza—such as targeting civilians with heavy bombardments and at food distribution points—how is it that Israel is not universally labeled a terrorist state?
Why do Western nations refuse to recognize Palestine, despite its UN recognition, and how does this prevent progress toward a two-state solution?

Col. Jacques Baud:

The word "terrorist" is often misused as a political tool rather than an accurate descriptor; it prevents dialogue by dehumanizing resistance movements, even though many, like historical liberation fighters, are fighting occupation. Labeling groups as terrorists without context ignores the root causes of resistance.
Israel is not a true democracy nor a state ruled by law—its policies are based on confrontation, not cooperation, and apply laws selectively. The use of mass destruction weapons, targeting of civilians, and systematic violence align more with state terrorism than legitimate military action.
Resistance arises from occupation; no occupation means no resistance. Hamas has repeatedly shown willingness to negotiate and compromise, but the West refuses to engage, instead demanding unilateral disarmament, which is neither realistic nor fair under international law.
The West, especially Europe, lacks strategic vision and is trapped in ideological narratives. It avoids conflict resolution with Palestine, Iran, and Russia not due to lack of solutions, but due to fear of antagonizing Israel and the US, despite viable paths like diplomacy and neutrality.
Current Western leadership is intellectually weak and driven by emotion rather than rational analysis. Decision-making is based on feelings, not intelligence or facts, leading to failed policies. This decline in strategic competence worsens global crises and undermines the role of neutral actors like Switzerland.

Amb. Chas Freeman & Trita Parsi: How the Iran-Israel War Changed EVERYTHING Overnight

Sat, 26 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Why did the latest talks between Steve Witkoff and Hamas fail, and why does the U.S. seem unwilling to accept Hamas’s requests for humanitarian aid in Gaza?
Given Donald Trump’s statement that Hamas “wants to die,” do you see this as a genuine assessment or a justification for imposing surrender terms?
Emmanuel Macron has announced intentions to recognize Palestine—do you believe this is a sincere move, and why delay it to September?
Keir Starmer named Iran as a threat to the UK—do you understand why Iran would be considered a direct threat to Britain?
With reports of an Israeli plan targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, was the real objective regime change, and what might a new attack aim to achieve?

Trita Parsi:

The U.S. and Israel aren’t negotiating peace but imposing surrender terms. Hamas asked for food and medicine, which Israel rejected as part of a strategy to starve Gaza—Witkoff, aligned with Israel, walked out.
Trump’s narrative mirrors Biden’s: blaming Hamas while ignoring that Israel often rejects deals. This reflects donor influence—like Miriam Adelson—and ideological Zionism within the administration.
Macron’s recognition is symbolic. The real effort was a June conference delayed after Israel bombed Iran. France may be acting now due to rising Gaza starvation and domestic pressure to escape complicity.
Iran is not a military threat to the UK. European views shifted due to Iran’s support for Russia in Ukraine, but direct threat claims are exaggerated—unless mismanagement pushes Iran toward nuclear weapons.
The goal isn’t regime change but regime collapse—decapitation without responsibility. Israel wants to fragment Iran, create internal chaos, and achieve air dominance, similar to its strategies in Lebanon and Syria.

Ambassador Chas Freeman:

The U.S. negotiates with Israel about Palestinians, not with Palestinians themselves. The current approach is about imposing Israeli terms, not peace.
Israel’s actions—starving Gaza, denying medical care—are part of a deliberate strategy. Their denials are fabrications, increasingly disbelieved globally.
Recognition of Palestine is symbolic. Without Israeli consent, it changes nothing. By September, there may be few Palestinians left in Gaza to recognize.
The idea that Iran threatens the UK is laughable. Britain overestimates its relevance. The real danger is that U.S.-Israeli actions are pushing Iran toward nuclear weapons for self-deterrence.
Israel seeks not regime change but regime removal—chaos and fragmentation. They failed to decapitate Iran’s leadership, but will likely try again. Iran is resilient and will respond hard, risking a far worse conflict.

Larry C. Johnson & Col. Larry Wilkerson: Trump Sinks in Endless Mistakes - Russia & Iran Redraw Map

Sat, 26 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of Donald Trump’s statements about NATO expansion and U.S. foreign policy, particularly regarding Russia and Ukraine?
Do you believe the U.S. military-industrial complex benefits in the long term from ongoing conflicts like the war in Ukraine?
How do you view the Trump administration’s approach to disarming Hezbollah in Lebanon, and is this strategy addressing the root causes of regional instability?
Given the recent fatwa issued by an Iranian cleric calling for the assassination of Trump and you, how do you assess the current escalation and credibility of such threats?
What is your reaction to Israel’s foreign minister condemning Russian attacks on civilians in Ukraine, while Israel conducts a similar campaign in Gaza?

Larry C. Johnson:

NATO expansion is the root cause of the current conflict with Russia. Since the Clinton era, the U.S. has provoked Russia by pushing NATO to its borders, ignoring Russian security concerns, leading to the current de facto war.
The military-industrial complex benefits financially—defense contractors receive more government funding and deliver high-priced, often ineffective weapons—but the strategic outcome is flawed, as seen in Ukraine with expensive systems like Patriot missiles being used inefficiently.
Hezbollah is not the cause but a symptom of the failure to achieve Palestinian self-determination. The West misrepresents the group as religious fanatics, ignoring their fight for freedom and political rights.
Yes, a fatwa was issued days ago by Iran’s top cleric calling for the assassination of Trump and me. Hezbollah also targeted our home with a drone attack—this is serious, not fiction.
Israel’s condemnation of Russia’s actions in Ukraine is pure hypocrisy. They are committing the same atrocities in Gaza—starving children, killing civilians—mirroring Nazi crimes, yet wrap it in religious justification.

Col. Larry Wilkerson:

The idea that NATO will increase defense spending to 5% is unrealistic—it would require massive cuts to social programs, which European populations won’t accept. It’s a political fantasy.
The U.S. arms industry produces over-engineered, expensive weapons that don’t perform well in real combat. Compare this to simpler, effective systems like the T-34 tank or Iranian drones.
The war in Gaza is causing a humanitarian catastrophe—children are starving, images resemble Nazi concentration camps. This is a deliberate policy, and the world is finally waking up.
Netanyahu’s claim of a “12-day war” with Iran was delusional. Iran responded with a highly effective missile and drone attack, exposing Israel’s vulnerability and damaging its military prestige.
Many Israelis support Netanyahu’s actions in Gaza despite opposing his domestic policies. This reflects deep-seated hostility toward Palestinians, encouraged by leaders like Bibi and enabled by allies like the U.S.

Dmitry Orlov: Is a MAJOR War Brewing Between the EU and Russia

Fri, 25 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What were the outcomes of the latest round of negotiations between Russia and Ukraine?
How should we interpret the recent protests in Ukraine, and what implications do they have for Russia?
Does the West, particularly the US and Europe, care about who governs Ukraine after a settlement, and how do their differing approaches affect the situation?
What is the significance of the Zangazur corridor, and could the US play a role in managing it, impacting Russia and Iran?
How can we understand Turkey’s complex and often contradictory behavior in the region, especially regarding Armenia, Azerbaijan, and the Middle East?

Dmitry Orlov:

The talks occurred but achieved little—both sides remain too far apart for substantive negotiations. Russia proposed short humanitarian ceasefires to recover the dead and wounded, which Ukraine said they would consider. The Ukrainian delegation no longer follows Zelensky’s demands, signaling a shift toward more realistic, albeit limited, engagement.
The protests in Ukraine are not organic but orchestrated "AstroTurf" events, funded and organized by political rivals like Poroshenko and Klitschko to challenge Zelensky. Participants are mostly young, paid individuals; older men avoid protests due to fear of conscription. This reflects Ukraine’s political instability and lack of genuine democratic process.
Europe and the US have divergent interests: Europe takes an ideological stance, while Trump focuses on economic leverage. Trump pressured Europe to fund Ukraine’s war effort after the US withdrew support, exposing Europe’s inability or unwillingness to pay. This shift allows the US to blame Europe if Ukraine collapses, marking a strategic win for Trump and a diplomatic loss for Europe.
The idea that the US will manage the Zangazur corridor is baseless "fake news." The corridor is strategically important for Iran as a cultural and recreational outlet, and for Azerbaijan as a land link to Turkey. However, merging Azerbaijan with Turkey risks destabilizing both due to deep ethnic and regional divisions within Azerbaijan, making such integration problematic.
Turkey’s behavior stems from its fractured identity—balancing secular Ataturk-era nationalism with Islamist influences like the Muslim Brotherhood. Historically prone to internal betrayal, Turkey is now less controllable by the US, especially since Putin helped Erdogan survive a coup attempt. Russia manages Turkey as an untrustworthy neighbor, expecting betrayal but avoiding overreaction.

Martin A. Armstrong: NATO Plans MASSIVE Troop Surge into Ukraine

Fri, 25 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

You believe NATO is escalating by planning to send 250,000 troops to Ukraine—what is the main reason you feel this way?
Do you think the Trump administration or Donald Trump himself was influenced by European or U.S. establishment forces to continue the conflict?
Given Germany’s economic decline, why is its government focusing on increasing military spending instead of fixing its domestic economy?
Is the same dynamic happening within NATO, and what is the real necessity behind military pacts like the UK-Germany alliance?
With Trump’s 50-day ultimatum toward Russia, do you see any realistic path to peace, or is this just escalating tensions further?

Martin A. Armstrong:

Ukraine is losing, and the West started this conflict—from Maidan to installing an unelected government, provoking civil war. The Minsk Agreement was a sham; Merkel admitted they never intended to honor it, only to build Ukraine’s army. Now, NATO seeks escalation because Europe is collapsing economically and needs an external enemy to distract from internal failures.
Yes, it appears Trump has been influenced. I’m disappointed—he was supposed to end endless wars, but Europe has sabotaged every peace effort. The EU is falling apart due to its flawed structure, disastrous policies (COVID, climate, sanctions), and now uses war to maintain control and divert public anger from collapsing economies and pension systems.
Germany is acting like any failing government—blaming an external enemy. Sanctions on Russia backfired, destroying German industry and causing record bankruptcies. Instead of fixing the economy, they’re pushing military spending and ideology, ignoring reality. This is centralization gone wrong—like Stalin, they prioritize control over people’s lives.
NATO should have been disbanded after the Cold War. It survives by manufacturing threats—keeping Putin as the enemy to justify its existence and funding. The UK-Germany pact and others aren’t about defense; they’re about provoking war. They don’t want diplomacy—no one has even called Putin to negotiate. Their goal is conquest, fueled by delusions of reviving European dominance.
The 50-day deadline is meaningless bravado. Trump likely thinks he can scare Putin, but after Minsk, why would Putin trust any deal? NATO and Europe have no credibility. This isn’t about Ukraine—it’s about NATO vs. Russia. The real goal is to provoke a response, trigger Article 5, and drag the U.S. into war. There is no peaceful solution in sight—only escalation.

Richard Wolff & Michael Hudson: BRICS Earthquake, Dollar Tumbles as China Walks Away from US Debt

Fri, 25 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your take on Donald Trump’s claim that BRICS is fading and his threat to impose 10% tariffs on member nations?
How do current U.S. policies, especially under Trump, affect the global standing and value of the dollar?
Can you explain the significance of the Financial Times article showing declining foreign holdings of U.S. Treasuries, especially by China?
What explains the sharp rise in U.S. Treasury holdings reported by the Cayman Islands?
How are global political shifts, such as rising nationalism in Japan and Europe, influenced by U.S. economic and trade policies?

Michael Hudson:

Trump’s policies—tariffs, inflation, monopoly tolerance—are driving foreign investors out of dollar assets, accelerating the dollar’s decline despite higher interest rates.
The dollar is falling because investors see U.S. policy as destabilizing; they’re moving into gold, Bitcoin, and other safe assets, not because of economic strength but fear of loss.
The Cayman Islands’ rising Treasury holdings reflect offshore financial flows, often from illicit sources like tax evasion, dictators, or crypto scams funneled through U.S. bank branches.
U.S. weapon systems are being exposed as ineffective in Ukraine and the Middle East, undermining the arms export economy that was meant to sustain global dollar demand.
The post-WWII Bretton Woods system is unraveling; just as the U.S. replaced the British pound, emerging powers are now building alternatives to dollar dominance, which U.S. threats can’t stop.

Richard Wolff:

Trump’s belief that devaluing the dollar boosts exports ignores that the U.S. has deindustrialized—there’s little left to export, making the policy self-defeating.
Harsh U.S. immigration and ICE policies are deterring tourism and foreign real estate investment, reducing demand for dollars and contributing to its decline.
Countries like Japan and Canada are using non-tariff barriers—cultural and political resistance—to reject U.S. goods, despite trade deals, showing limits of American leverage.
The U.S. is alienating allies with tariffs and erratic policies, pushing them toward BRICS and new economic alignments as a defense against American economic instability.
The decline of American empire is clear in military weakness (e.g., inability to sustain long wars) and loss of ideological influence, mirrored in the rise of left and right nationalist movements abroad.

Prof. Ted Postol: The War That Solves Nothing, Why Attacking Iran Is a Losing Game

Thu, 24 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

While the U.S. was negotiating with Iran, Israel launched an attack. Donald Trump claimed he knew about it in advance. What was the outcome of that attack, and how has it affected Iran’s trust in negotiations?
Given the attack during negotiations, what message does this send to other countries considering diplomatic engagement with the U.S. or Israel?
The attack was said to target Iran’s nuclear program. What was its actual strategic outcome—did it hinder Iran’s ability to build nuclear weapons?
How should we interpret Iran’s current nuclear capabilities in light of the attack and its aftermath?
You mentioned that Iran may now be considered an undeclared nuclear weapons state. Can you explain the evidence behind this assessment?

Prof. Ted Postol:

The attack severely damaged Iran’s enrichment facilities, but it failed in its core objective: preventing Iran from building nuclear weapons. In fact, Iran now has the capability to produce enough weapons-grade uranium for approximately 10 atomic bombs.
Any country in a tense relationship with Western powers must now question the credibility of diplomatic negotiations, given repeated instances—like Minsk II and the Iran talks—where agreements were undermined or abandoned unilaterally.
Iran has produced around 400+ kilograms of 60% enriched uranium and over 13,000 centrifuges. Even if only a small fraction are hidden, they could quickly enrich uranium to weapons-grade levels, making Iran a de facto undeclared nuclear weapons state—similar to Israel.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) found uranium enriched to 83.7%, which is functionally equivalent to 90% weapons-grade material. This indicates Iran has likely tested its final enrichment steps, confirming its technical readiness to build bombs.
Iran doesn’t need a large or visible facility to produce a bomb. A small cascade of centrifuges (e.g., 174 units) in a 60-square-meter space, powered by something as small as a Prius generator, could complete final enrichment in weeks—making detection nearly impossible and deterrence a reality.

Ray McGovern & Graham E. Fuller: Ukraine Burns, Middle East Erupts

Thu, 24 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the Istanbul talks between Ukraine and Russia, and what do each side want?
Are the protests in Ukraine primarily about opposition to Zelenskyy, or are they signaling a desire for new leadership?
Do you see signs that Germany is beginning to understand the realities of the war in Ukraine, especially in public opinion and media?
Is there evidence that British intelligence is preparing Zaluzhny to replace Zelenskyy as president of Ukraine?
What is your view on the situation in Gaza, particularly regarding Israel’s humanitarian claims in Ukraine while conducting a military campaign in Gaza?

Ray McGovern:

The Ukrainian delegation likely attended the Istanbul talks under U.S. pressure, as Zelenskyy is in deep trouble politically and financially. Trump reportedly warned him it was his “last chance” to negotiate before U.S. support ends, suggesting a shift toward Europe.
The protests in Ukraine may reflect a desire for new leadership, possibly someone from the hard-right Azov faction, which ironically aligns with Russia’s stated goal of “denazification.” This puts Ukraine in a difficult position.
German public opinion is heavily brainwashed on Ukraine. Even suggesting understanding Putin’s perspective is taboo—Angela Merkel was attacked for advocating it. The destruction of Nord Stream has hurt Germany’s economy, but awareness of U.S. role in this is still limited.
Zaluzhny is reportedly close to the Azov movement, which makes him problematic. While the British may be backing him, the succession plan is unclear. Zelenskyy may be kept temporarily to accept an unpopular peace deal to shield a new leader from blame.
The hypocrisy of Israel condemning Russian actions in Ukraine while committing atrocities in Gaza is staggering. The U.S. remains the key enabler, and moral authority is absent. Younger generations, including Jewish Americans, are increasingly rejecting this double standard.

Graham E. Fuller:

The Istanbul talks reflect a moment of truth. Western narratives of Ukrainian victory are collapsing. The U.S. and Europe must now manage a retreat from their own propaganda, and Zelenskyy may lose his position as a result.
The real issue behind the protests is the collapse of Western promises. Zelenskyy may be used as a “fall guy” to accept a humiliating peace, sparing a successor from the political cost of surrender.
Germany’s current government is weak, but rising populist, anti-war, and anti-NATO movements may force a political shift. Economic hardship could eventually push Germany to reassess its foreign policy dependence on the U.S.
The British have historically influenced U.S. foreign policy and are likely playing a key role in shaping Ukraine’s leadership transition. Boris Johnson previously sabotaged peace talks, indicating deep British involvement in prolonging the conflict.
Israel’s actions in Gaza are indefensible, especially given its public stance on Ukraine. While some European institutions and media are beginning to speak more honestly, real change will require U.S. congressional action—which is blocked by massive pro-Israel lobbying. The situation is morally bankrupt but politically entrenched.

Andrei Martyanov: Has Zelensky's Final Hour Arrived, Shocking Shifts in Ukraine's War Game

Thu, 24 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is happening in Ukraine with the recent protests against corruption, and why are we seeing public dissent now after years of silence during the war?
How do you explain the mainstream media coverage of protests in Ukraine by outlets like Bloomberg, Financial Times, and Al Jazeera? Are they trying to build a narrative to remove Zelensky from power?
What is the significance of the peace negotiations in Istanbul, and what are Russia’s true objectives in these talks?
Why does Europe seem more engaged and connected with Ukraine compared to the United States, which appears less involved under Trump?
Donald Trump claims the U.S. is producing more missiles and ammunition than any country in history—how accurate is this, and what does it say about U.S. military capabilities compared to Russia?

Andrei Martyanov:

The protests in Ukraine are not genuine mass movements but orchestrated, paid events funded by Western organizations like Soros and anti-corruption NGOs. They are theatrical, reminiscent of the Maidan, and designed to create a false narrative. There is no real popular uprising because the population only acts when paid. The Zelensky regime is corrupt, and Ukrainian leadership has historically focused only on stealing resources, not governing.
The media narrative is shifting because Washington and London are looking to replace Zelensky with another figure, like Zaluzhny, thinking a personality change will serve their goals. But this is superficial. The strategic aim remains the same: to use Ukraine as a future bridgehead against Russia. These Western actors don’t understand real policy or strategy—they only shuffle individuals, not change objectives. Russians see this clearly and are not fooled.
The Istanbul negotiations are mostly for show and PR. Russia’s demands haven’t changed since 2021: NATO must roll back to 1997 borders, Ukraine must be demilitarized and neutral, and territorial realities on the ground must be recognized. Talks focus on humanitarian issues like POW exchanges. Real negotiations require dealing with serious actors, not puppets like Zelensky. A Putin-Trump summit may happen, but only after significant groundwork—and even then, Trump is not trusted.
Europe is deeply brainwashed and driven by a Russia-hating frenzy. Its elites, losing power, are inciting war sentiment. Countries like Germany, despite weak militaries, are pushing for confrontation. This is dangerous and delusional. Russian officials, like Maria Zakharova, have warned Germany it could be wiped out. Much of Europe, especially the West, is culturally conformist and easily manipulated, while only a small minority (10–15%) truly understand the danger.
Trump’s claims about missile production are childish and false—typical narcissistic boasting from someone disconnected from reality. The U.S. military-industrial complex is weak, especially in artillery and missile production. Russia produces high-precision weapons at an order of magnitude greater than all of NATO combined. U.S. systems like ATACMS are outdated and easily shot down. Russia’s air defense (S-400, S-500) and hypersonic missiles (Kinzhal, Zircon, Kh-BD) far surpass anything the U.S. has. Trump lives in an alternate universe, and his statements are a national embarrassment.

John Helmer: Russia's Single MOVE! Is Russia Scrambling to Understand Trump's Next Move

Wed, 23 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the main goal of the Russians in the upcoming third round of negotiations in Istanbul?
Do you think Ukraine will have a presidential election soon, and could that facilitate negotiations?
Is General Zaluzhny a viable candidate to replace Zelensky, and would he be more open to negotiation?
How do the Russians view the issue of "denazification" in Ukraine, and can it be achieved without removing the current leadership?
How do the Russians perceive Donald Trump, and do they believe he has a coherent strategy, or are they confused by his actions?

John Helmer:

The Russian goal in Istanbul may be a surprise maneuver—offering a ceasefire tied to a delay in Western arms deliveries and pushing for regime change in Kyiv, possibly aligning with a potential Trump-Putin meeting in Beijing around September 3rd.
Ukrainian elections are unlikely soon; Zelensky is actively consolidating power and suppressing anti-corruption protests, which are likely Western-manipulated. Regime change is a key Russian priority, but internal Ukrainian politics remain opaque.
While Zaluzhny is favored by the British as a potential replacement, he is unlikely to win an election as a peacemaker. Russia’s military leadership believes true regime change requires the complete destruction of Ukraine’s military capacity, not just a leadership swap.
Russians see "denazification" as impossible without changing the underlying interests driving hostility. Military victory is seen as necessary to dismantle the ideological base, potentially leaving Western Ukraine (e.g., Lvov) isolated in a demilitarized zone, while eastern and southern cities are integrated into Russia.
Russian views on Trump are mixed: while he’s seen as preferable to Biden, his erratic behavior is noted. However, Moscow is no longer seeking American approval—the war has revealed deep hostility from the U.S. and NATO, ending any illusion of coexistence.

Col. Larry Wilkerson: Israel SURVIVES a new WAR with Iran, Yemen Push Israel's Economy to the Brink!

Wed, 23 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

How do you assess Iran’s behavior following the foreign minister’s interview on Fox News, especially regarding its nuclear program and desire for negotiations with the U.S.?
Do you believe the main objective behind Israeli and U.S. actions toward Iran is regime change?
Given Israel’s struggles in defending against Houthi attacks, how credible is their threat or plan to launch a major offensive against Iran?
Why is the UK, despite strong verbal condemnation, not taking significant action to pressure Israel over Gaza?
What role is Israel playing in exploiting divisions within the Druze community in Syria, and what are their broader strategic goals in the region?

Colonel Larry Wilkerson:

The Fox News question about Iran’s underground nuclear facilities was absurd—of course they’re underground, given Israel’s history of assassinating scientists and attacking infrastructure. It’s basic self-defense, not proof of malign intent. Iran is trying to negotiate, but I suspect they’re being naive, trusting Trump will deal in good faith, which he won’t.
Yes, regime change is the official U.S. policy toward Iran, as codified by Congress. But the idea that the Iranian people would rise up and install a pro-Western government is delusional. Any new government in Tehran would still face the same threats—especially from Israel—and would likely pursue the same strategic deterrents, including nuclear weapons.
Israel cannot realistically defeat Iran, but Netanyahu, like a dictator drunk on his own rhetoric, believes he can—especially with U.S. backing. He’s suicidal in his ambitions. Iran is not the weak state of 1953; it has learned from past conflicts and built a resilient, asymmetric defense. Any war would be catastrophic and unwinnable for Israel and the U.S.
The UK talks tough but does nothing meaningful because it’s still aligned with U.S. and Israeli interests. Real pressure—like cutting arms sales or imposing sanctions—is absent. Meanwhile, what’s happening in Gaza—using aid distribution sites as killing zones—is a genocide live-streamed, worse than Dachau in visibility and cruelty. The world sees it but hesitates to act.
Israel is bribing and manipulating Druze leaders in Syria to gain local support, not out of goodwill, but to clear its rear flank as it advances. Netanyahu’s ultimate goal is regional domination—Greater Israel—encompassing Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and beyond. But he’s overreaching; he’ll drag the U.S. into a war with Iran that neither can win, potentially triggering a wider conflict, even nuclear escalation.

Scott Ritter: The East Fights Back; Iran, Russia & China Unleash Countermeasures!

Wed, 23 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

The U.S. is considering sanctions on Brazil, China, and India to pressure Russia over Ukraine. Senator Lindsey Graham is pushing for 500% tariffs. What’s your take on this strategy?
Germany seems tied to Ukraine policy as a way to manage its own internal crises—collapsing economy, energy issues, political division. Is this a sustainable or rational strategy?
There are reports Poland is asking its citizens to leave Russia—could this signal a coming internal collapse in Ukraine or broader regional instability?
J.D. Vance appears skeptical of NATO and European engagement. Could a future U.S. administration under Trump or Vance lead to NATO’s effective end?
Iran’s foreign minister recently appeared on Fox News offering dialogue. Is this a genuine opening, or are they mimicking Putin’s tactic of talking while fighting continues?

Scott Ritter:

Lindsey Graham’s threats are empty posturing. He doesn’t understand Russia, and the idea that the U.S. can dictate terms through sanctions on neutral countries shows delusion. Russia isn’t bound by timelines or Western pressure—it’s focused on winning.
Germany’s economy is de-industrializing, politically fragile, and dependent on U.S. narratives. Merz’s strong support for Ukraine is less about principle and more about political survival. His government is weak and could collapse under pressure.
Poland’s actions suggest they know something—possibly a coming shift in Ukraine, like Zelensky being forced out. But Poland can’t intervene militarily; they’d run out of ammunition in 14 days. It’s a sign of fear, not capability.
Without U.S. leadership, NATO fractures. The British, French, and Germans want to lead, but Eastern states want war with Russia while Western Europe wants defense. Without “daddy” (the U.S.), it’s just bickering children. NATO is unsustainable as it is.
Iran is copying Putin: talk peace, continue war. Their Supreme Leader has centralized control after internal splits, so any message from Iran now is unified. They’re signaling openness but won’t change battlefield actions. It’s a trick, not a transition.

Mohammad Marandi: Iran Is Ready for the WORST-CASE scenario-Yemen HITS Ben Gurion Airport

Tue, 22 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the main objective behind Iran’s approach to negotiations with the United States?
Why has Iran increased uranium enrichment beyond the 5% limit set by the JCPOA, and why is this difficult for the U.S. to understand?
Do you think the Iranian foreign minister’s message on Fox News was understandable to the American public, especially those advocating military action against Iran?
Given the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, do you see growing international pressure that could force a change in policy?
What is really happening in Syria, and who truly represents the diverse ethnic and religious groups within the country?

Mohammad Marandi:

Iran engages in negotiations not because it expects peace with the U.S., but to demonstrate to the global south, BRICS nations, and allies like China and Russia that Iran is not the obstacle. The indirect format—such as using Oman as a mediator—allows Iran to show willingness while denying the U.S. the political win of direct talks. This strategy exposes U.S. bad faith when it shifts positions or resorts to aggression.
Iran enriched to 60% as a response to Western actions and broken commitments. Technically, reaching 60% is the major hurdle; moving to 90% is relatively simple. The key achievement now is strategic ambiguity—no one knows exactly what Iran can do, especially after expelling the IAEA. The knowledge and industrial capacity to enrich remain intact, regardless of attacks on facilities.
The U.S. elite only understands force, not diplomacy. However, Iran uses limited soft power to speak directly to the American people—not the government—to counter Western narratives. The goal is to make war politically costly for Washington by revealing that Iran is not the enemy portrayed in mainstream media.
The longer the genocide in Gaza continues, the more it erodes the legitimacy of the West globally. While regimes like Turkey, Egypt, and Gulf states continue cooperating with Israel, public disgust is growing. Like Ukraine’s eventual collapse, the downfall of Western moral authority may be sudden once tipping points are reached, even if timing is unpredictable.
The conflict in Syria is the result of a deliberate plan since 2012 to empower extremist groups like Al-Qaeda and ISIS—backed by Turkey, Qatar, Israel, and the U.S.—to destroy Syria’s unity. Jolani’s rule has led to sectarian violence against Alawites, Christians, Druze, and others, proving Hezbollah’s warnings correct. Now, regional populations are waking up to this reality, realizing that these extremists were tools of foreign powers, not liberators.

Paul Craig Roberts: Subservience to Israel Precludes Greatness-Trump & BRICS

Tue, 22 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your take on Matt Gaetz’s criticism of Israel’s treatment of American Christians and Arab Americans, and the broader erosion of Israel’s global goodwill?
Given the U.S. ambassador Mike Huckabee’s visit to the West Bank, what do you see as the current situation for Palestinians under Israeli occupation?
Are there any recent U.S. presidents besides George H.W. Bush and Reagan who have shown willingness to challenge Israel’s demands?
How sustainable is Israel’s current aggressive posture in the Middle East, especially with attacks on Eilat and Ben-Gurion Airport disrupting its economy?
What do you make of Lindsey Graham’s threats against countries like China, India, and Brazil for buying Russian oil—do such statements reflect effective foreign policy?

Paul Craig Roberts:

The situation in Palestine is a U.S.-supported genocide. Matt Gaetz is rare in speaking out, but his words are ineffective because no sitting official can criticize Israel and survive politically. Only two House members, like Marjorie Taylor Greene, oppose aid to Israel, but they’re outliers in a system controlled by pro-Israel lobbies.
The U.S. has zero foreign policy independence from Israel. Since the Cold War, American actions in the Middle East have aligned entirely with Israeli interests—destroying Iraq, Libya, Syria, and now pushing toward Iran. The U.S. is effectively a colony, led by Netanyahu through diplomatic, financial, and blackmail control.
Eisenhower was the last president truly independent of Israel, forcing them out of Egypt in 1956. Even LBJ kowtowed after the USS Liberty attack. Reagan had some independence because Epstein-era blackmail didn’t exist yet. Post-Epstein, U.S. leaders are compromised; Netanyahu holds leverage over decades of honey-trap operations involving underage individuals used to entrap American elites.
Israel cannot survive without total U.S. support—military, financial, and diplomatic. Its economy and security depend on American backing. Recent attacks from Yemen show vulnerability, but Israel doubles down on dependence, using blackmail and lobbying to maintain U.S. aid rather than seeking self-reliance.
Lindsey Graham is a fool. Threatening major powers like China, India, and Brazil over cheap Russian oil is counterproductive and diplomatically absurd. It alienates allies, reveals U.S. weakness, and avoids the real solution: negotiating a mutual security agreement with Russia, which Trump refuses to pursue, letting the military-industrial complex prolong conflict for profit.

Larry C. Johnson: Iran Gets Tough, Russia Hammers Its Strategy to Confront the U.S.!

Tue, 22 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

How do you assess Europe’s move toward snapback sanctions under the JCPOA, and is it acting independently or primarily to serve Israel’s interests?
What is your take on Iran’s recent coordination with Russia and China regarding its nuclear program, and how does this shift the geopolitical balance?
Given past military cooperation since 2018, what strategic message does the upcoming CASIEX 2025 exercise in the Caspian Sea send to the West?
Can the Trump administration realistically broker a grand security deal involving Ukraine and the Middle East, given current power dynamics?
How effective are threats like economic coercion against countries such as China, India, and Brazil over their purchase of Russian oil?

Larry C. Johnson:

Europe appears reluctant to enforce snapback sanctions despite deadlines, suggesting it lacks real commitment—likely due to not wanting to escalate tensions or break from broader diplomatic channels.
Iran’s open coordination with Russia and China reflects a strategic pivot toward multipolarity; it no longer seeks to act alone and is securing powerful allies for political and military backing.
The joint military exercises signal a growing defense alignment among non-Western powers, emphasizing deterrence and showcasing advanced capabilities to counter Western pressure.
No, the Trump administration has no leverage over Russia or Iran; Trump’s foreign policy relies on bluster rather than substance, and key players no longer fear U.S. threats.
Threats to “crush” economies over Russian oil purchases are hollow; nations like China and India see these as imperialist tactics and are actively building alternative financial systems to resist U.S. pressure.

Pepe Escobar: Trump Targets BRICS, But BRICS Is Locked and Loaded!

Mon, 21 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Are Indian policymakers aware of the risks of not acting in their own interests within BRICS?
Could BRICS members see closer military collaboration beyond current agreements?
How should Iran approach its foreign policy after recent attacks by the U.S. and Israel?
What impact will the Zangezur Corridor have on Iran and Russia’s regional strategies?
Is the current Iranian administration capable of effective strategic decision-making?

Pepe Escobar:

India’s internal contradictions and hesitations may cost them influence in BRICS if they don’t act decisively.
Military collaboration could expand, especially if geopolitical pressure increases, though it’s not yet formalized.
Iran is strengthening defense ties with China and Russia, acquiring advanced jets and preparing for long-term deterrence.
If the corridor isolates Iran, both Iran and Russia may act together, but this risks escalation with Turkey, Azerbaijan, and Israel.
The current administration seems hesitant and lacks clarity, possibly due to internal divisions and misplaced optimism about the U.S.

Col. Larry Wilkerson & Chas Freeman: WW3 IMMINENT, Shocking Signs, We're on the Brink of Global War!

Sat, 19 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is happening between the Houthis and Israel?
Why are the Yemenis so difficult to deal with militarily?
How is the situation in Syria being interpreted differently by the US and Israel?
Why is Turkey unable to communicate its difficulties in Syria with the US?
What are the implications of the recent military pact between the UK and Germany?

Amb. Chas Freeman:

The Houthis have shut down the port of Eilat and occasionally attack Ben-Gurion Airport, taking concrete actions under the Genocide Convention.
The Yemenis are resilient and adept at differentiating between commercial ships, causing significant damage and economic impact.
The US and Israel have different interpretations of the Syrian situation, with Israel occupying territory and Turkey upset by Israeli actions.
Turkey's leverage with the US is limited, especially under the current administration, leading to uncertainty and fear internationally.
The UK-Germany pact reflects historic tensions and could lead to an escalation similar to pre-WWI alliances.

Col. Larry Wilkerson:

The Houthis have taken actions against Israeli ports, impacting economic stability, and are considered indomitable.
Yemenis are resilient and have a history of courteous banditry, making them tough adversaries despite limited military power.
The situation in Syria involves Israeli occupation and internal disputes, with the Syrian army attempting to mediate.
The US's unpredictable foreign policy and military behavior cause concern among international leaders.
The military pact between the UK and Germany highlights strategic threats and historical parallels, raising concerns about potential conflicts.

Dmitry Orlov: RUSSIA JUST DROPPED THE HAMMER Warning the West

Fri, 18 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Can you summarize the key points of Dimitri Orlov’s recent article “How Donald Went to War”?
What is Orlov’s perspective on Trump’s ability to influence the outcome of the Ukraine conflict?
How does Orlov view the MAGA movement and its impact on U.S. foreign policy?
What challenges does Orlov identify in revitalizing U.S. industry, especially regarding gender roles and drug use?
How does Orlov foresee Russia handling the future of Ukraine, particularly the Western region?

Dmitry Orlov:

The article critiques U.S. involvement in Ukraine as misguided, predicting inevitable Russian victory and NATO defeat. It also highlights Trump’s inability to change the trajectory of the conflict.
Trump cannot significantly alter the Ukraine situation because he lacks leverage over Ukraine or Russia, and U.S. support for Ukraine is depleting resources needed elsewhere, like in Israel.
MAGA has failed both domestically and internationally; Trump’s policies were unrealistic, and his administration has largely abandoned fiscal conservatism while failing to reduce U.S. global entanglements.
U.S. industrial decline is tied to cultural shifts favoring women and soft skills, along with widespread drug use, making it difficult to rebuild a disciplined workforce necessary for manufacturing.
Russia will likely demilitarize and denazify eastern Ukraine, while the western part may become depopulated and lawless, eventually resettled by Russia if left unclaimed by the West.

Andrei Martyanov: It's OVER, Russia Plans to End It All on the Battlefield!

Fri, 18 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the current geopolitical tensions involving Ukraine and Russia, particularly regarding cross-border military actions?
How do you evaluate the technological and military capabilities of Western nations compared to Russia and other global powers?
What are the implications of U.S. involvement in Ukraine for global strategic balances and international relations?
How do you perceive the leadership qualities of key political figures like Donald Trump and their impact on foreign policy decisions?
What is your view on the potential for broader military conflicts, such as a possible World War III, given current global tensions?

Andrei Martyanov:

The situation involving Ukraine and Russia is marked by significant military escalation, with deep strikes into Russian territory raising concerns about further conflict expansion. However, these actions are not new, as Ukraine has been conducting such operations for some time.
Western nations, particularly the U.S., still possess significant technological capabilities, especially in space and unmanned systems, but their military-industrial capacity is declining. European countries, like Germany, lack the ability to produce advanced military systems, and even France, despite having a credible nuclear deterrent, has limited capacity compared to global powers like Russia and China.
U.S. involvement in Ukraine has strained its military and political credibility. The U.S. is seen as being driven by a flawed strategic understanding and is increasingly viewed as being incapable of sustaining large-scale military operations. This has weakened its global influence and exposed internal weaknesses.
Figures like Donald Trump are often criticized for lacking genuine strategic understanding and being influenced by personal interests and external manipulation. There is skepticism about the competence of Western leaders, with many being seen as products of a failing system.
While there is concern about the potential for larger conflicts, particularly with nuclear-armed powers, the likelihood of a full-scale World War III remains low. Russia, for instance, has shown restraint despite provocations, and the global balance of power makes such a conflict unlikely, though regional confrontations remain a risk.

Richard Wolff & Michael Hudson: America's FINAL Days, China Takes the Lead in Global Power Shift!

Fri, 18 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the impact of Trump's policies on universities and public opinion regarding Netanyahu's administration?
How does the situation in Israel with Netanyahu's leadership affect Jewish populations globally?
What is the implication of European countries' military spending on their economies?
How does Trump's approach to Ukraine influence American foreign policy?
In what ways does the U.S. competition with China affect the automotive industry?

Michael Hudson:

Trump's policies attempt to stifle criticism of Netanyahu by influencing academic freedom and public discourse.

Alex Krainer: IRAN Turning Into an AIR DEFENSE BEAST - China & Russia Just Changed the Game FOREVER!

Thu, 17 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the current situation in Syria, and what role are external powers playing?
How is the U.S. relationship with Israel impacting regional stability?
What is the significance of the British role in the Middle East?
How are Iran-Russia-China relations evolving amid geopolitical tensions?
What are the implications of Western actions in Ukraine for global stability?

Alex Krainer:

The situation in Syria is worsening, with regional rivalries and external interference, particularly from the UK, fueling instability.
U.S. support for Israel is increasingly seen as a liability, with some questioning its strategic value amid shifting alliances.
The UK is actively involved in stirring conflict, including in Syria, as part of broader efforts to destabilize the region and counter rival powers.
Russia, China, and Iran are strengthening cooperation, viewing the West's actions as existential threats, making their alliance more resilient.
The war in Ukraine is being prolonged by Western support for Kyiv, with dangerous escalations, including potential nuclear risks, on the horizon.

John Helmer: Russia's Oreshnik Moment comes CLOSER

Thu, 17 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the significance of Trump’s reported discussions with Zelensky about attacking Moscow?
How does Trump’s approach to Ukraine differ from previous administrations?
What role do European allies play in escalating the conflict with Russia?
What are the implications of secondary sanctions on countries like China and India?
How does Azerbaijan factor into the broader geopolitical conflict involving Russia and Iran?

John Helmer:

Trump’s reported discussions with Zelensky indicate a potential escalation, but his inconsistent statements and mental capacity raise doubts about U.S. strategy.
Trump’s approach mirrors Biden’s in arming Ukraine but adds unpredictability, with threats of direct attacks on Russia and transactional diplomacy.
European allies, particularly Germany, are being pressured to fund and supply weapons, effectively acting as intermediaries for U.S. military support to Ukraine.
Secondary sanctions on China and India aim to cut off Russia’s oil revenue, but these measures are unlikely to succeed due to strong economic ties.
Azerbaijan’s strategic location and tensions with Russia and Iran make it a focal point for external powers like Israel, Turkey, and the U.S., threatening regional stability.

Laith Marouf: Syria BURNS in Chaos-The Resistance Won't Die, Rising from Ashes

Thu, 17 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is happening in Syria, particularly in the region of Sweda?
What role do Turkey and Qatar play in the current situation in Syria?
How does the Druze population in the Golan Heights interact with events in Syria?
What does Israel aim to achieve in the region, especially regarding Syria?
What is the significance of Netanyahu’s recent visit to the United States?

Laith Marouf:

In Syria, particularly in Sweda, there is ongoing conflict involving attacks by HTS and other groups, with Israel appearing to film some events. The Druze population in the region remains resilient and refuses to collaborate with Israel.
Turkey and Qatar, through Al Jazeera, appear to be portraying the Druze population in a negative light and are indirectly supporting HTS, which collaborates with Israel despite previous claims of opposing it.
The Druze in the Golan Heights, though under Israeli control, maintain strong Syrian identity and have actively resisted Israeli influence, with some even entering Syria to support their kin in Sweda.
Israel aims to destabilize Syria by exploiting sectarian divisions and creating excuses for intervention. The Druze resistance in Sweda is seen as a threat to these plans.
Netanyahu’s visit to the U.S. focused on securing support, particularly regarding the Epstein investigation and potential military actions. However, the U.S. has limited options without risking global conflict, so Israel may resort to more sectarian and terrorist tactics in the region.

Col. Larry Wilkerson: TRUMP DROPS ULTIMATUM, RUSSIA & IRAN'S NEXT MOVE WILL BLOW YOUR MIND!

Wed, 16 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your perspective on the recent developments in U.S.-Russia relations following Trump's ultimatum?
How do you interpret the internal divisions within MAGA and their implications for Trump's foreign policy?
Can you analyze the potential consequences of Germany acquiring long-range missiles for the Ukraine conflict?
How might the ongoing conflict in Gaza affect regional stability and international diplomacy?
What are your thoughts on the recent polls indicating increased support for the Iranian government despite external pressures?

Col. Larry Wilkerson:

The recent developments in U.S.-Russia relations reflect a complex interplay of domestic politics and international strategy, with Trump's ultimatum likely aimed at appeasing his base rather than achieving concrete diplomatic outcomes.
The internal divisions within MAGA highlight the challenges Trump faces in maintaining cohesion among his supporters, especially as key figures like Tucker Carlson challenge the narrative, which could undermine his foreign policy initiatives.
Germany acquiring long-range missiles could escalate tensions in the Ukraine conflict, potentially provoking a stronger response from Russia and complicating diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the situation.
The ongoing conflict in Gaza risks further destabilizing the region, exacerbating humanitarian crises, and straining international relations, particularly as global public opinion increasingly turns against Israel's actions.
The recent polls suggesting increased support for the Iranian government may reflect a rally-around-the-flag effect in response to external pressures, but they may not fully capture the complexities of internal dissent and economic challenges faced by the regime.

Mohammad Marandi: How Iran & Yemen DEFY All Odds, How Iran & Russia getting CLOSER!

Wed, 16 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the current public sentiment in Iran following the Israeli attack, and how has it affected national unity?
How did Netanyahu’s visit to the U.S. impact his domestic political position amid growing challenges?
What are your thoughts on Trump’s handling of Ukraine aid and its implications for regional stability?
Do you think mainstream Western media is successfully creating divisions between Iran and Russia?
How prepared is Iran’s military to respond to potential future attacks from Israel?

Mohammad Marandi:

Iranian public sentiment has shifted dramatically toward national unity, pride, religiosity, and support for the government and armed forces after the Israeli attack. Polls show a significant rise in internal cohesion and belief in victory.
Netanyahu is facing serious domestic issues after losing the war against Iran. His prolonged stay in the U.S. reflects desperation, especially with rising global condemnation and internal instability in Israel.
Trump’s administration continues to fund wars in Ukraine and for Israel, but resources are not infinite. The intensification of these conflicts weakens the West and strengthens alliances like Iran-Russia-China.
Western media attempts to divide Iran and Russia by spreading false reports, but both countries reject such narratives. These efforts aim to weaken BRICS and anti-imperialist alliances.
Iran is preparing for future threats by strengthening its air defense systems and improving offensive capabilities. It knows Israel’s tactics and will strike harder if attacked again.

Scott Ritter: Trump DARES Russia, China STEPS IN! Putin Ready for the WORST

Wed, 16 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of Trump’s ultimatum to Russia and its implications?
How do you interpret Germany’s push for long-range Typhoon missiles and its impact on Russia?
What are your thoughts on Zelensky's role in the Ukraine conflict and his refusal to negotiate?
How do you evaluate reports about Trump urging Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory?
What is your view on Tim Weiner’s narrative regarding CIA involvement in Ukraine?

Scott Ritter:

Trump’s ultimatum is meaningless posturing; Russia has dismissed it outright, showing Trump lacks geopolitical leverage.
Germany’s pursuit of Typhoon missiles is reckless and dangerous; Russia will respond decisively if threatened.
Zelensky is a puppet controlled by external forces; he lacks legitimacy and autonomy in decision-making.
Reports of Trump urging strikes on Russia are likely fabricated; such actions would provoke catastrophic consequences.
Tim Weiner’s account is propaganda favoring the CIA; his narrative is biased and untrustworthy.

Lasha Kasradze: AZERBAIJAN, The Next Chess Piece Against Iran & Russia

Tue, 15 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Is Azerbaijan on the path of becoming like Georgia or something different?
How does Azerbaijan connect to regional geopolitics through the north-south corridor between Iran and Russia?
What role is China playing in shaping the region, particularly involving Azerbaijan?
Why has Azerbaijan suddenly become more prominent in regional discussions?
What are the implications of recent military interactions, such as the conflict between Iran and Israel using Azerbaijani territory?

Lasha Kasradze:

It's not necessarily Azerbaijan but Armenia that may end up in a position similar to Georgia in 2008 due to geopolitical shifts.
Azerbaijan plays a key role in the north-south corridor connecting Iran and Russia, enhancing its geoeconomic importance.
China watches carefully and supports Russia indirectly, avoiding direct confrontation while pursuing its own regional interests.
Azerbaijan has gained prominence due to its victory over Armenia in Nagorno-Karabakh and strengthened alliances with Turkey and the West.
Recent military actions highlight Azerbaijan’s growing strategic value to external powers, though it still avoids directly challenging Russia.

Larry C. Johnson: Trump threatens 100 secondary tariffs! Russia SMASHES Ukraine! Yemen's RETURN

Tue, 15 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What was the significance of Donald Trump’s recent announcement regarding Ukraine and Europe?
How do you interpret Trump’s claim that European countries, especially Germany, are enthusiastic about supporting Ukraine?
Do you believe European nations are genuinely committed to funding weapons for Ukraine, or is there a hidden agenda?
Could Trump’s policies on Ukraine potentially harm his support base in the U.S., particularly among MAGA supporters?
Is Europe preparing for escalation in the Ukraine conflict, and how effective will their military buildup be against Russia?

Larry Johnson:

Trump’s announcement is largely symbolic and lacks substance—referred to as a “nothing burger.” It seems aimed at political posturing rather than real policy change.
The idea that European leaders are genuinely enthusiastic is questionable. Larry suggests they may not be able to afford these commitments and might rely on frozen Russian assets to fund them.
European commitments are likely verbal and lack financial viability. There may be behind-the-scenes strategies to use seized Russian funds, but actual payments remain unlikely.
Trump has already damaged his credibility, especially with MAGA supporters, due to issues like the Epstein case and inconsistent foreign policy messaging.
Europe’s military buildup is unrealistic and driven more by political motives than strategic planning. Russia currently holds a clear military advantage in several key areas.

Paul Craig Roberts: Trump's Biggest Mistake-The Epstein Saga

Tue, 15 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your interpretation of Trump’s stance on U.S. involvement in the Ukraine war?
How do you see the impact of Trump’s proposed 100% tariffs on global trade dynamics?
What role do you think Netanyahu played during his meetings with Trump?
How credible do you find the idea that Trump might be influenced by powerful interest groups?
What are your thoughts on the potential consequences of withholding the Epstein client list?

Paul Craig Roberts:

Trump is not ending the war but shifting financial responsibility to Europe, ensuring military profits continue.
Tariffs have no real impact on Russia but will anger other nations and accelerate de-dollarization.
Netanyahu may have pressured Trump to suppress Epstein-related files that could expose high-level connections.
The "deep state" and corporate interests clearly constrain Trump, neutralizing many of his promises within months.
Withholding the Epstein files protects powerful elites, undermines trust in government, and reveals systemic corruption.

Col. Jacques Baud: EU on the BRINK of War

Mon, 14 Jul 2025 15:31:44 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the current U.S. policy toward Ukraine, particularly regarding military aid and reimbursement by European countries?
How do you interpret Lindsey Graham’s statement about a turning point in U.S. relations with Russia, especially concerning arms sales to Europe?
Do you believe Macron’s push to double France's defense budget is justified, and where should the funding come from?
Is there a realistic possibility of Russia targeting France, as claimed by French military leadership?
What are the long-term implications of NATO's increased defense spending on European populations?

Col. Jacques Baud:

The U.S. policy under Trump shifts conflict into business by selling military equipment to Europe and Ukraine, making them reimburse costs. This contrasts sharply with Biden’s approach.
Graham highlights a shift in U.S. strategy toward arming allies heavily against Russia, funded by European nations rather than the U.S., signaling strategic realignment.
Macron's call to increase defense budgets is not new but raises concerns about diverting funds from social programs, which may negatively impact European societies.
Claims that France is a primary Russian target lack logic or clear justification, suggesting such narratives aim to justify increased military spending rather than reflect reality.
NATO’s push for higher defense spending will strain economies already facing debt and social issues, especially in Western Europe, leading to potential unrest and resource reallocation.

Mark Sleboda: US DROPS THE HAMMER! Russia & Iran FIRE BACK, Yemen STRIKES Israeli Ships

Sat, 12 Jul 2025 21:22:26 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid

What is your take on the Axios report about Putin urging Iran to accept a zero-enrichment deal with the U.S.?
How do you assess the recent 12-day conflict between Iran and Israel, particularly Netanyahu’s goal of regime change?
Do you think Netanyahu’s visit to the U.S. is related to Trump’s domestic issues like the Epstein file revelations?
How do you interpret the political dynamics in Washington regarding sanctions against Russia, especially Lindsey Graham’s push for “bone-crushing” measures?
What is your view on the implications of Trump sending limited military aid to Ukraine and how it affects the war's trajectory?

Mark Sleboda:

The Axios story lacks credible sources and fits a pattern of Western disinformation aimed at destabilizing Iran-Russia relations.
The 12-day war was an attempted decapitation strike by Israel but failed due to Iranian resilience and resulted in rallying public support around the government.
While Trump faces internal pressures, Netanyahu’s visit is more about leveraging U.S. support for further military action against Iran rather than covering up scandals.
U.S. lawmakers like Graham are pushing unrealistic sanctions that target global trade partners of Russia, showing ignorance of global market realities and likely to fail.
The U.S. is constrained militarily, especially in air defense capabilities, making any significant shift in Ukraine unlikely; sending minimal weapons is largely symbolic and ineffective.

Amb. Chas Freeman: WAR ZONES, Can China Ukraine, Gaza & Iran EVER Achieve Peace

Sat, 12 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What are the crucial issues in the current U.S.-China relationship?
How do Chinese officials perceive the differences between the U.S. and China?
What is Europe’s stance on the Ukraine conflict, and how effective is it?
How do you view Trump’s foreign policy decisions regarding Brazil and Japan?
What is Iran’s position toward potential negotiations with the U.S.?

Amb. Chas Freeman:

The U.S. has chosen China as an adversary due to internal dissatisfaction, not global realities, with both political parties aligned against China despite its economic rise.
Chinese leaders see U.S. actions as irrational and driven by pride over losing dominance, misunderstanding China’s governance model and policies.
Europe is divided and lacks a coherent strategy in Ukraine, continuing ineffective support while ignoring greater humanitarian crises elsewhere.
Trump’s erratic behavior alienates allies like Brazil and Japan, undermining diplomacy and damaging long-standing international relationships.
Iran wants dialogue but sees no sincerity or guarantees from the U.S., which remains under Israeli influence, blocking meaningful engagement.

Larry C. Johnson: Russia Advances! - Yemen DESTROYS Israeli Ships, Israel's Iran Strike SUICIDE

Sat, 12 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the current situation in Ukraine, and why is Russia advancing?
How effective is Western support for Ukraine, especially regarding military aid?
Is Europe capable of standing up to Russia militarily?
What are the implications of Trump's policies toward Ukraine and Russia?
Is there a realistic path to ending the war in Ukraine?

Larry C. Johnson:

Russia is making significant advances in Ukraine due to superior military pressure, particularly in Zaporizhia and other regions, while Ukraine’s air defenses are overwhelmed.
Western support, including limited aid like 10 Patriot missiles, is insufficient against Russia’s scale of attacks and ineffective in halting its progress.
Europe is described as incapable of matching Russia militarily and appears increasingly divided or ineffective in responding to the crisis.
Trump’s erratic behavior and lack of coherent strategy raise concerns, with his actions seen as potentially worsening the conflict and global instability.
A military defeat of Ukraine seems likely unless there is a major shift, as Russia intensifies operations and aims to consolidate territorial gains.

Graham E. Fuller: Can the U.S. Escape Its Strategic DISASTERS, A NEW REVOLUTION Begins

Fri, 11 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Why does Donald Trump praise Putin during their conversations, despite feeling let down by Russia's actions?
Is there confusion in Washington about who is making key decisions, such as halting ammunition shipments to Ukraine?
How much does Trump truly understand about the complexities of the Ukraine conflict and foreign policy in general?
Who might be influencing Trump’s foreign policy behind the scenes, and why has Steve Witkoff seemingly lost influence?
Given Israel’s strong influence over U.S. policy, do you believe Trump could engage in direct talks with Iran despite Israeli objections?

Graham E. Fuller:

Trump likely praises Putin instinctively but grows frustrated as he realizes Putin’s demands are unreasonable and non-negotiable.
There appears to be internal confusion and lack of clarity in the Trump administration, especially on major foreign policy decisions like military aid to Ukraine.
Trump receives intelligence reports, but his erratic nature and reliance on personal instincts mean his understanding is inconsistent and unpredictable.
Steve Witkoff had significant influence due to his diplomatic approach, but others like Rubio may now be sidelining him, possibly with backing from pro-Israel factions.
Despite Israeli pressure, Trump may still consider negotiations with Iran if he believes a hardline approach could lead to future diplomatic gains or regional stability.

Richard Wolff & Michael Hudson: The US is BLIND to BRICS, And It's Crushing America's Future!

Fri, 11 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the significance of the BRICS summit in Brazil, particularly regarding global economic dynamics?
How do tariffs imposed by the U.S., such as those on Brazil, affect international trade and relations?
Why are the BRICS countries struggling to create a unified alternative to the Western economic system?
What role does the U.S. play in dividing and weakening the BRICS alliance through economic policies?
How does the concept of "grabization" explain the current economic behavior of the U.S. and its allies?

Michael Hudson:

The BRICS summit highlights the shift from U.S.-dominated globalization to a multipolar world where countries seek independence from Western financial systems.
Tariffs like those imposed on Brazil aim to bully nations into submission, but they also push BRICS countries to strengthen internal trade and reduce reliance on the U.S.
BRICS lacks a clear blueprint for breaking away from neoliberalism, with members more reactive than proactive in forming new economic institutions.
The U.S. exploits divisions within BRICS—especially using India and Brazil—to prevent a united front against American economic dominance.
“Grabization” refers to elites stripping resources for short-term gain, mirroring the Soviet Union’s collapse and currently seen in U.S. policies.

Richard Wolff:

The BRICS’ achievements, like $1 trillion in internal trade, show progress despite differences, partly driven by Trump’s tariffs pushing them together.
Tariffs primarily hurt American consumers, not foreign exporters, creating inflationary pressures that could undermine U.S. competitiveness.
BRICS remains divided due to geopolitical maneuvering, similar to how European distrust hampers unity among nations.
Lula’s stance on globalization emphasizes that the issue isn’t globalization itself, but U.S. imperialism using it for domination.
BRICS must redefine economic development beyond capitalism, embracing cooperative models that prioritize community over profit-driven monopolies.

The administration struggles with global perception due to erratic messaging and unclear strategic goals.

How significant is the transformation within BRICS, especially with countries like Indonesia joining?
What is your view on Donald Trump's inconsistent foreign policy statements, particularly regarding Ukraine?
How do you assess Germany’s militarization efforts and their implications for Russia?

Andrei Martyanov:

The U.S. has degenerated into an empire due to financial capitalism and imperial overreach, mirroring the British Empire but lacking sustainable economic foundations.
The U.S. lacks real industrial capacity and operational military experience, rendering its forces ineffective against modern adversaries like Russia.
BRICS represents a major shift toward a multipolar world order, challenging Western-dominated institutions and moving toward independent financial systems.
Trump operates from a delusional worldview, driven by narcissism and ignorance of geopolitics, making his policies erratic and untrustworthy.

Is Trump’s approach to foreign policy driven by domestic political considerations?
What role does NATO play in the ongoing conflict in Ukraine?
How might the current geopolitical tensions impact global stability?

Trump’s shifting stance reflects internal pressures within Washington and his administration's lack of a coherent strategy.

Yes, Trump is likely adjusting his foreign policy to appeal to his political base and boost his re-election prospects.

How effective was BRICS in addressing the Gaza conflict, especially with India’s involvement?
Do you think the situation in Syria could lead to a regime change due to external pressures?
What is your view on the West's involvement in Lebanon and Syria and its impact on regional stability?
How do you assess Hezbollah's current strength and preparedness after recent setbacks?
What are your thoughts on Netanyahu's visit to the U.S. and its implications for the Middle East?

Laith Marouf:

BRICS managed to issue a strong statement calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, despite India’s previous alignment with Israel. Economic ties within BRICS likely influenced India’s stance.
The Syrian government led by HTS is unstable and unlikely to last long due to internal weaknesses and external conflicts among its backers.
Western involvement in Lebanon and Syria aims to destabilize the region, but their contradictory strategies are counterproductive and strengthening resistance movements.
Hezbollah has restructured into smaller cells and is rearming rapidly, preparing for potential conflicts with both Wahhabi groups and Israel.
Netanyahu’s visit to the U.S. reflects efforts to secure further support, but Israel's aggressive policies are increasingly isolated globally.

Why do you think Donald Trump has shifted his stance on foreign policy since entering office?
Do you believe the U.S. government is under significant influence from external actors like Israel?
What are your thoughts on the potential viability of a third political party in the United States?

Paul Craig Roberts:

BRICS represents a move toward sovereignty and independence from Western control, which is a positive development for global diversity.
Tariffs can be legitimate tools for trade protection, but when used aggressively, they become similar to sanctions and reflect bullying tactics.
Trump faces internal pressures and powerful interest groups that limit his ability to fulfill campaign promises.
Yes, the U.S. appears to prioritize Israeli interests in its foreign policy, especially in the Middle East.
A third party could offer an alternative, but it would face immense financial and media challenges to gain traction.

How effective is the U.S. strategy of using tariffs and sanctions as tools of economic diplomacy?
What implications does the expansion of BRICS have for global economic governance?
How might the use of national currencies in international trade impact dollar dominance?
What role does predictability play in international economic relations, particularly concerning U.S. foreign policy?

Scott Ritter:

The establishment of a BRICS bank aims to provide an alternative to Western-dominated financial institutions, though it's still far from matching their influence.
U.S. tariffs and sanctions often lack effectiveness due to global economic interdependence and can provoke retaliatory measures rather than compliance.
BRICS expansion signifies a shift towards multipolarity, challenging existing power structures but requiring greater institutional coherence.
Moving away from dollar dependency involves significant logistical and geopolitical challenges, yet regional powers are increasingly exploring alternatives.
Predictability in policy fosters stable international relations; erratic shifts in U.S. policy can undermine trust and hinder long-term cooperation with other nations.

What was Iran’s main goal at the BRICS summit, and did it achieve what it wanted?
Do you think BRICS should take on responsibilities similar to the UN in global affairs?
Can Donald Trump push Netanyahu toward a ceasefire in Gaza?
Is the mainstream media legitimizing genocide in Gaza by changing its narrative?
Why is it so hard for the West to understand that Iran does not intend to attack the U.S. directly?

Mohammad Marandi:

Iran's goal at BRICS was to build alliances but relies mainly on self-reliance; the summit declaration was sufficient but not assertive enough.
BRICS could move in that direction, but internal divisions and political changes may affect its path.
Unlikely; images of Trump praising Netanyahu suggest poor prospects for Gaza, and real change will come from battlefield realities.
Western media is controlled by elites and has abandoned truth, openly justifying atrocities in Gaza without accountability.
The West fabricates narratives against Iran; these are tools of propaganda to justify aggression and regime change.

What is your opinion on the economic consequences of Trump’s tariffs?

Larry C. Johnson:

The U.S.-Iran relationship remains strained due to geopolitical rivalry and sanctions, with limited prospects for near-term improvement.
Western intelligence operations often exacerbate regional tensions, driven by strategic interests rather than neutrality.
Recent tensions between Azerbaijan and Iran reflect broader geopolitical manipulation, particularly involving external actors like Turkey and Israel.
NATO's expansion has heightened global instability by provoking Russia and undermining diplomatic efforts in Eastern Europe.
Trump’s tariffs have disrupted trade, hurt small businesses, and contributed to economic uncertainty without clear long-term benefits.

Dmitry Orlov: Ukraine Caught Off Guard, Russia Launches Devastating Attack!!

Fri, 04 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Can you summarize the key points of Dimitri Orlov’s recent article “How Donald Went to War”?
What is Orlov’s perspective on Trump’s ability to influence the outcome of the Ukraine conflict?
How does Orlov view the MAGA movement and its impact on U.S. foreign policy?
What challenges does Orlov identify in revitalizing U.S. industry, especially regarding gender roles and drug use?
How does Orlov foresee Russia handling the future of Ukraine, particularly the Western region?

Dmitry Orlov:

The article critiques U.S. involvement in Ukraine as misguided, predicting inevitable Russian victory and NATO defeat. It also highlights Trump’s inability to change the trajectory of the conflict.
Trump cannot significantly alter the Ukraine situation because he lacks leverage over Ukraine or Russia, and U.S. support for Ukraine is depleting resources needed elsewhere, like in Israel.
MAGA has failed both domestically and internationally; Trump’s policies were unrealistic, and his administration has largely abandoned fiscal conservatism while failing to reduce U.S. global entanglements.
U.S. industrial decline is tied to cultural shifts favoring women and soft skills, along with widespread drug use, making it difficult to rebuild a disciplined workforce necessary for manufacturing.
Russia will likely demilitarize and denazify eastern Ukraine, while the western part may become depopulated and lawless, eventually resettled by Russia if left unclaimed by the West.

Fri, 04 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of Donald Trump's decision to halt sending more weapons to Ukraine and its potential impact on the conflict?
How do you interpret Macron’s recent outreach to Putin, and does it signal a shift in European policy toward seeking a diplomatic resolution?
Given the West’s attempts to draw divisions between Iran, Russia, and China, how solid is the current alignment among these countries?
What is your perspective on the situation involving Azerbaijan, especially regarding reports of Israeli and Turkish influence and its implications for regional stability?
Considering Western reliance on indirect strategies and proxy conflicts, do you foresee new tensions emerging in regions beyond Ukraine and the Middle East?

Andrei Martianov:

Trump’s decision reflects U.S. military-industrial limitations rather than goodwill. The U.S. is running out of resources and cannot sustain arms deliveries.
Macron’s call to Putin stems from fear, not diplomacy. Europe is panicking as it realizes the war is unwinnable and energy vulnerabilities are critical.
The West’s narrative attempting to divide Iran, Russia, and China is false. These nations are closely aligned, especially after recent events like the Iranian-Israeli conflict.
Azerbaijan’s actions are influenced by Turkey and Israel. However, Russia and Iran have leverage and will act decisively if provoked, given their strategic interests.
Yes, the West will continue using destabilization tactics elsewhere, particularly in Central Asia and through radical Islamist groups, due to its military and industrial impotence.

Richard Wolff & Michael Hudson: Trump's The Big Beautiful And The Ugly

Fri, 04 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the significance of Trump's budget deficit bill in relation to dollar hegemony?
How does Trump's tariff policy impact the U.S. economy and global trade dynamics?
Why are foreign investors beginning to move away from the U.S. dollar and Treasury bonds?
What role does income inequality play in destabilizing the U.S. economy?
How might the BRICS nations reshape global economic power structures?

Michael Hudson:

Trump’s bill, combined with his tariff policies, threatens dollar hegemony by increasing budget deficits and lowering the dollar’s value, making it less attractive to foreign investors.
Tariffs raise import prices and harm consumers while failing to revive U.S. manufacturing due to high domestic production costs.
Foreign investors are moving away from the dollar due to declining exchange rates, rising inflation, and fears of further devaluation.
Income inequality is worsening as tax cuts favor the wealthy while social programs for the poor are cut, creating social instability.
The BRICS nations are building an alternative financial system outside Western control, reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar and institutions like the IMF.

Richard Wolff:

The decline in the dollar reflects a loss of confidence in U.S. economic policy and its long-term stability, accelerating capital flight.
Tariff-driven protectionism disrupts global supply chains and fails to bring back manufacturing because U.S. production costs remain too high.
China’s economic model focuses on state-led development and infrastructure investment rather than speculative finance, offering a viable alternative to Western capitalism.
BRICS growth signals a shift toward a multipolar world where countries can trade and develop without depending on the United States or Europe.
The U.S. response—military spending and sanctions—reflects declining economic influence and a desperate attempt to maintain global dominance.

Alex Krainer: The Collapse Is Accelerating, Ukraine and Israel Out of Moves

Thu, 03 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your reaction to the U.S. decision to hold back weapons from Ukraine, and how does this align with NATO's stance?
How do you interpret Donald Trump’s support for Netanyahu despite Israel’s weakened position internationally?
What are the implications of Iran cutting ties with the IAEA, especially in terms of global nuclear oversight?
Do you believe the tensions between Azerbaijan and Russia/Iran are being manipulated by external forces like the UK?
What do you think is France’s main objective in reaching out to Putin after years of silence?

Alex Krainer:

The U.S. decision reflects an "America First" policy, prioritizing domestic defense needs and signaling a shift away from globalist military engagements.
Trump supports Netanyahu because a weakened but still-powerful Netanyahu may be more inclined to negotiate peace, whereas an unknown successor could be more radical.
Iran’s withdrawal from IAEA cooperation shows distrust in international institutions that have been weaponized against them, and it may lead to demands for equal scrutiny on countries like Israel.
Yes, the UK appears to be stirring tensions between Azerbaijan, Russia, and Iran as part of a broader geopolitical strategy to destabilize Eurasia.
France likely wants to negotiate with Russia to prevent further advances in Ukraine and preserve Western control over strategic areas like Odessa and the Black Sea coast.

Mohammad Marandi: CRUSHING Defeat Awaits Israel if It Strikes Iran Again!

Thu, 03 Jul 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the current situation regarding potential Israeli attacks on Iran, and how are Iranians perceiving this threat?
How do you interpret Trump's recent statements about Netanyahu and the judiciary in Israel?
Is there a possibility of the U.S. being able to control Netanyahu’s actions in the current crisis?
How effective were the Israeli strikes on Iran, and what strategic assets remain intact?
What is Iran’s stance toward countries like Azerbaijan that allowed Israeli use of their airspace?

Mohammad Marandi:

The Israeli regime is likely preparing for another attack, but Iran is now more prepared and will respond much harder if attacked again.
Trump may want Netanyahu to feel more secure to avoid escalation, not out of goodwill, but because he understands the danger of another round of fighting.
The U.S. cannot win a war against Iran; any large-scale conflict would be devastating for the U.S. and the world, and Iran is in a commanding position globally.
Israeli strikes had limited success; most key Iranian military assets, especially underground facilities, remain intact and operational.
Iran respects Azerbaijan’s sovereignty but expects the same in return; however, Aliyev’s alignment with Israel has angered many Azeris in Iran and weakened his position.

Ray McGovern & John Helmer: Why Are So Many Countries Turning Their Backs on America

Thu, 03 Jul 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

How do you assess the current dynamics between Iran and Israel, and who holds the strategic advantage?
Do you believe the U.S. involvement in the Middle East has weakened its global military and economic position?
How are internal factions in Iran responding to increased pressure from Western powers?
What impact does the weakening of pro-Western factions have on Iran’s foreign policy direction?
Could recent events lead Iran to reconsider its stance on nuclear weapons development?

John Helmer:

In the short term, both sides inflicted damage, but in the long run, Iran holds the advantage due to resilience and geographic compactness.
Yes, the U.S. is facing logistical, financial, and technological constraints due to simultaneous conflicts and aid distribution limits.
Pro-Western factions in Iran are losing influence as sanctions and military failures expose their weaknesses.
The failure of pro-Western groups has shifted Iran’s policy toward self-reliance and closer ties with non-Western allies like Russia and China.
While Iran may not rush to build a nuclear weapon, it could reconsider its stance if pressured further or if regional security demands it.

Ray McGowan:

Iran has proven it can withstand Israeli attacks, which boosts its regional standing and weakens Israel’s deterrence.
The U.S. is overextended and unable to sustain multiple fronts, especially with dwindling resources and public support.
Pro-Western elites in Iran are under pressure, but internal politics remain complex and resistant to quick shifts.
Sanctions have not crippled Russia but have fractured its elite class, leading to a more anti-Western economic and political alignment.
Iran may seek advanced defense technology from Russia and China rather than escalate immediately, preferring strategic patience.

Laith Marouf: THE RESISTANCE IS BACK And This Time, It's UNSTOPPABLE!

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the push to disarm Hezbollah in Lebanon?
How do you view the reality of disarming Hezbollah amidst rising tensions?
What are your thoughts on Iran's role in confronting Israel and the U.S.?
Is there any possibility of Israel launching another attack on Iran?
How do you evaluate the West’s narrative collapsing in the Middle East?

Leith Maruf:

The idea of disarming Hezbollah is unrealistic; the population is arming itself, and no one trusts Wahhabi death squads.
The Lebanese people are hardened against disarmament; sleeper cells and chaos are more likely than peaceful resolution.
Iran’s retaliation uplifted regional morale and proved its military capability against Western technologies.
Israel won’t launch a full-scale attack soon; instead, they may rely on terrorism and sleeper cells due to recent defeats.
The West’s dominance is crumbling; global consciousness has shifted, exposing their hypocrisy and accelerating their decline.

Scott Ritter: Everything Has Changed, Trump Now Faces a New World with Iran and Russia!

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 14:02:36 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What's your assessment of the current tensions between Iran and Israel, and are we heading towards new attacks?
Do you believe that Donald Trump would understand the potential for a prolonged conflict with Iran?
How effective do you think Israeli intelligence is in influencing U.S. policy towards Iran?
Considering past conflicts, how does Iran's resilience compare to that of Iraq and Syria?
What are your thoughts on the role of democracy within Iran's political system?

Scott Ritter:

The tensions are part of a broader U.S.-Israel strategy aimed at regime change in Iran, using the nuclear program as a pretext. Yes, we may see more attacks designed to destabilize Iran.
There's little understanding within the Trump administration about the complexities of Iran; they lack genuine knowledge, making informed decisions unlikely.
Israeli intelligence has significantly influenced U.S. policy, reverting to flawed models like the Nasrallah model, which assumes decapitation leads to collapse—this won't work in Iran.
Iran is more resilient than Iraq and Syria due to its historical unity and national identity, which hasn't been defeated or fragmented.
Iran's political system includes democratic elements with elected officials, though it's guided by a supreme leader; this structure provides stability despite external pressures.

Larry C. Johnson: Shockwave in Israel, Iran's Missiles Break All Expectations!

Mon, 30 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of Trump’s current policy toward Iran, and do you expect further attacks?
How do you interpret the recent military activity involving planes heading to Israel, and could it signal a new attack on Iran?
Do you believe negotiations with the U.S. under Trump are viable, or has trust been irreparably damaged?
What role does Israel play in escalating tensions, and how likely is it that they will drag the U.S. into direct conflict?
How do you view the geopolitical alignment between Iran, Russia, and China, and what does it mean for future stability?

Larry C. Johnson:

Trump is not finished with Iran; he will look for excuses to escalate, and Iran must remain vigilant and prepared for more aggression.
The increased flights to Israel suggest preparations for another strike, but Iran has shown resilience and strategic restraint in past responses.
Negotiations under Trump are pointless—there’s no trust, and the U.S. has consistently broken agreements and pursued regime change.
Israel is pushing for escalation, possibly through false-flag operations, and Trump may be manipulated into deeper involvement despite public fatigue.
Iran’s alliance with Russia and China is strategic and necessary; these relationships provide critical support against Western pressure and help balance global power.

Col. Jacques Baud: Israel's Ego Wrote a War Check, But Iran's Cashing It!

Mon, 30 Jun 2025 15:05:04 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What were Israel’s main objectives in attacking Iran, and did they achieve them?
How did the U.S. involvement in the conflict align with Israeli goals?
Did the conflict lead to greater unity within Iranian society?
How has the international community responded to the attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities?
What does this conflict reveal about Israel’s national security strategy?

Col. Jacques Baud:

Israel aimed to destabilize Iran politically, involve the U.S. militarily, and damage Iran’s nuclear program, but none of these objectives were fully achieved.
The U.S. provided minimal support, reluctant to be deeply involved, suggesting a limited alignment with Israeli interests.
Despite internal divisions, the conflict strengthened national unity in Iran, even among minority groups like the Jewish community.
International institutions like the IAEA failed to respond effectively, highlighting a collapse in global legal and ethical order.
Israel’s strategy remains overly militaristic and disconnected from regional realities, making long-term stability unlikely.

Alex Krainer: Israel's Worst Defeat Yet-Iran Just Turned the Tables!

Sat, 28 Jun 2025 17:14:59 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your perspective on the recent conflict between Iran and Israel, and how do you interpret the U.S.'s involvement?
How do you assess the idea that the attacks were choreographed rather than genuine military actions?
What are your thoughts on Trump’s role in managing the conflict and his broader foreign policy approach?
Do you believe the outcome of this conflict benefits Iran, and if so, why?
How do you view the potential long-term consequences of this conflict for regional stability and international relations?

Alex Krainer:

The conflict seems staged or exaggerated to serve political goals, with minimal real damage inflicted by either side.
Intelligence and precision displayed by Iran’s missile program indicate a strong deterrent capability without needing nuclear weapons.
Trump appears to be pursuing a strategy of reducing U.S. global entanglements, favoring deals over prolonged conflicts.
Iran emerges stronger diplomatically, while Israel appears weakened economically and militarily from the conflict.
The future may involve a shift toward multipolar diplomacy, with the U.S. engaging more with Russia, China, and Iran for global stability.

Andrei Martyanov; Israel Backs Off, Russia Doubles Down, What's Coming Next.

Thu, 26 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your understanding of the recent developments between Iran and Israel, especially regarding the involvement of ISIS and the lack of a real ceasefire?
Why did Iran choose not to use cruise missiles in its attack on Israel despite possessing them?
How effective are the Patriot missile systems, as claimed by Trump, against modern ballistic missiles?
Do you believe Netanyahu's initial plan was regime change in Iran, and if so, why did it fail?
Is there confusion among global powers like Russia, China, and Iran about Trump’s erratic behavior and rhetoric?

Andrei Martianov:

The conflict shows that Israel relied heavily on U.S. support but failed to anticipate Iran’s military capabilities, leading to significant damage and no real ceasefire.
Iran likely avoided using subsonic cruise missiles because they are easier to intercept and less effective compared to their advanced ballistic missiles.
Patriot systems are obsolete and ineffective against modern ballistic missiles; Trump's claims are exaggerated and misleading.
Netanyahu and Trump underestimated Iran, believing in quick victories and Western military superiority, which led to strategic failure.
No, countries like Russia understand Trump well—they see him as impulsive, narcissistic, and unreliable, which undermines U.S. credibility globally.

Ray McGovern & Johhn Helmer: Russia's Summer Blitz vs Ukraine-Iran, Israel Halt Fire

Thu, 26 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the significance of Trump's involvement in the Iran-Israel conflict?
Did the U.S. and Israel succeed in crippling Iran’s nuclear program?
How credible are claims that Iran has been deterred from pursuing nuclear weapons?
Is the ceasefire between Iran and Israel sustainable, or just a pause in hostilities?
What are the implications of Trump’s actions on global diplomacy and regional stability?

Ray McGovern:

Trump’s involvement in the Iran-Israel conflict is driven by domestic politics and personal ambition, not strategic clarity. His unpredictability undermines long-term stability.
The U.S. and Israel did not obliterate Iran’s nuclear facilities—intelligence assessments indicate limited damage. Highly enriched uranium was likely moved beforehand.
Claims about deterring Iran from nuclear weapons ignore intelligence consensus: Iran isn’t pursuing a bomb, but Trump uses fear to justify aggression.
The ceasefire is temporary—a respite for both sides to regroup and rearm. Escalation remains likely as neither side has achieved strategic dominance.
Trump’s actions weaken international trust in U.S. leadership, embolden allies like Israel, and destabilize diplomatic efforts globally.

John Helmer:

Trump’s role in the Middle East reflects his transactional view of diplomacy—prioritizing short-term political wins over lasting peace.
The attacks on Iran caused tactical damage but failed to achieve strategic goals. Iran retains significant retaliatory capability.
Focusing on uranium enrichment misses the point—what matters is whether Iran is developing nuclear weapons, which it is not.
Ceasefires serve as pauses in ongoing conflicts, allowing both sides to rearm and reassess strategy. This one is no different.
Trump’s foreign policy lacks coherence, creating uncertainty for allies and adversaries alike, with serious consequences for global security.

Alastair Crooke: Iran, Israel Ceasefire, Inside the 12 Day War & Trump's Peace Deal

Wed, 25 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What led to the decision by Israel and the U.S. to go to war with Iran?
How did the AI system Mosaic influence the escalation between Iran and Israel?
Why didn’t the initial Israeli attack on Iran lead to the expected collapse of the Iranian state?
What role did the IAEA play in the events leading up to the conflict?
What were the key outcomes of the 12-day war between Iran and Israel?

Alastair Crooke:

The decision was based on a long-term plan involving deception, including fake negotiations and using AI-generated intelligence to justify military action.
Mosaic, an AI system used by the IAEA, falsely suggested Iran was accelerating its nuclear program, creating a pretext for the attack.
Iran quickly restored its air defenses, replaced military leadership, and remained unified, countering the expectation of internal collapse.
The IAEA provided misleading intelligence that supported Western narratives, which Iran and others viewed as a betrayal and manipulation.
The war exposed Israel’s vulnerabilities, damaged its infrastructure, and failed to destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities, leading to a pause but not a lasting resolution.

Laith Marouf: THE RESISTANCE RISES, Stronger Than EVER Before!

Wed, 25 Jun 2025 15:45:13 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What triggered the recent ceasefire between Iran and Israel after 12 days of conflict?
How do you assess Iran’s decision to halt hostilities, especially in light of regional and international reactions?
Can we expect a lasting ceasefire, or is this merely a temporary pause in ongoing tensions?
What strategic advantages did Iran gain from its military actions against Israel and U.S. bases?
How might these developments influence the broader regional balance of power and Arab states' positions?

Leith Marouf:

The ceasefire came after Iran inflicted significant damage on Israel and the U.S. realized it couldn’t defeat Iran without risking nuclear escalation.
Iran’s decision was strategic—to avoid triggering a nuclear response while continuing to weaken Israel economically and psychologically over time.
There is no formal ceasefire; hostilities have paused temporarily but will likely continue for at least another year.
Iran demonstrated its military capability, damaged Israel’s infrastructure, and exposed U.S. vulnerability, forcing a shift in Western calculations.
Arab regimes remain subservient to the West and Israel, but they may be pressured to distance themselves as Israel weakens and global opposition grows.

Amb. Chas Freeman: Turning Point in Global Power Iran Attacked Russia Reacts

Wed, 25 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the current situation in the Middle East after Donald Trump's ceasefire announcement between Iran and Israel?
Why did Israel attack Iran, and why did Netanyahu agree to stop the attacks?
How has the Western media portrayed the conflict between Iran and Israel?
What are the implications of this conflict on Iran's nuclear program and its relationship with the IAEA?
How might this conflict reshape international relations, particularly with Russia, China, and Gulf Arab states?

Amb. Chas Freeman:

There is no formal ceasefire; instead, Iran offered a conditional halt to retaliation if Israel stopped attacking. Trump pressured Israel to accept it.
Israel attacked Iran because it saw an opportunity to weaken Iran’s nuclear program and regional influence. Netanyahu agreed to stop due to mounting Israeli casualties and military strain.
Western media has been pro-Israel, downplaying Israeli losses while exaggerating Iranian damage, distorting the true balance of harm.
Iran’s nuclear program was not destroyed—it dispersed its enriched uranium and retains scientific knowledge. Iran may now reject IAEA inspections due to distrust.
The war may push Iran closer to Russia and China for defense support. Gulf Arabs may align more with Iran against Israel, shifting regional alliances.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your analysis of the recent ceasefire between Israel and Iran?
How do you assess the impact of U.S. involvement in the Middle East, particularly under Donald Trump?
What are your thoughts on the role of misinformation and propaganda in shaping perceptions of Iran?
How can international relations with Iran be improved, especially regarding nuclear agreements?
What is your perspective on the internal dynamics within Iran, such as public sentiment and governance?

Scott Ritter:

The ceasefire seems fragile; both sides agreed due to mutual exhaustion rather than resolution of core issues.
U.S. involvement has been costly without clear strategic gains, highlighting the need for a new approach.
Misinformation fuels hostility; direct engagement with Iranians could counteract this bias effectively.
A compromise is necessary, but zero-enrichment demands may no longer be feasible or practical.
Despite challenges, the Iranian government has maintained resilience, though it faces criticism and calls for reform.

Did the Israeli attack on Iran achieve its objective of regime change?
How did the U.S. involvement impact the conflict?
What effect has the war had on Iran's relationship with the West?
What are the implications of this conflict for Israel and Netanyahu?

Mohammad Marandi:

There is a cessation of hostilities, but no formal agreement; Iran continues to hold the upper hand.
The Israeli objective of regime change failed, as the Iranian government remains strong and unified.
The U.S. strike on Iran was deceitful during negotiations, damaging Western credibility and strengthening Iran’s resolve.
Mistrust toward the West has deepened, pushing Iran closer to the Global South and BRICS nations.
Netanyahu has been weakened, and Israel’s image as invincible has been shattered, leading to internal instability.

Paul Craig Roberts: Iran Strikes the US Al-Udeid Base in Qatar

Tue, 24 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima R. Alkhorshid:

What is your take on the U.S. attack on Iran and its aftermath?
How do you assess the Trump administration’s claims about destroying Iran's nuclear sites?
What is your view on the Iranian response to the U.S. attack, particularly the strike on Qatar?
Do you believe the U.S. can truly dismantle Iran’s nuclear program?
How do you see the ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel escalating or de-escalating?

Paul C. Roberts:

The U.S. attack likely caused no real damage; experts suggest Iran had already moved critical assets.
The administration’s claims are exaggerated; there’s little independent evidence supporting their narrative.
The Iranian retaliation seems symbolic, with no significant impact reported so far.
Dismantling Iran’s nuclear knowledge is nearly impossible; it would require eliminating all expertise.
Escalation depends on missile capabilities—Israel may soon face overwhelming pressure, drawing the U.S. into direct conflict.

Larry C. Johnson: U.S. Attacks Iran And Triggers MASSIVE RESPONSE!

Mon, 23 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the recent American attack on Iran’s nuclear sites?
How do you view the relationship and communication between Iran, Russia, and China following the attacks?
Do you think the U.S. and Israel are managing escalation effectively in their attacks on Iran?
What is your take on the possibility of Iran blocking the Strait of Hormuz?
How do you see the impact of the ongoing conflict on Israeli society and its policymakers?

Larry C. Johnson:

The U.S. claims of destroying Iran's nuclear sites are exaggerated; overhead imagery shows minimal damage, and Iran likely had advanced warning.
Iran may now seek Russian and Chinese help for air defense systems like S-400s, after previously refusing them, to counter Israeli and U.S. missile threats.
Israel is struggling with missile defense and economic sustainability under Iranian strikes; attrition will build political pressure to end the war.
Blocking Hormuz is unlikely due to Iran’s reliance on trade with Asian countries, though selective targeting of European-bound ships is possible.
The war is causing growing suffering in Israel, which could lead to internal political shifts and potentially remove Netanyahu from power.

What is your assessment of the recent U.S. attack on Iran and its strategic implications?
How do you evaluate the role of international institutions like the IAEA in addressing such conflicts?
Do you believe the West’s approach toward Iran undermines international law?
How significant is the growing alignment between Iran, Russia, and China in response to Western pressure?
What are the broader consequences of irrational decision-making in global politics?

Col. Jacques Baud:

The U.S. attack on Iran appears to be more symbolic than effective, lacking clear strategic objectives and likely driven by political pressures rather than military necessity.
International institutions like the IAEA are being misused or sidelined, weakening their credibility and undermining the global nuclear monitoring system.
Yes, the West’s selective enforcement of international law, especially regarding nuclear rights, reveals a systemic bias that erodes trust in the global order.
The alignment between Iran, Russia, and China reflects a shared opposition to Western hegemony and could reshape geopolitical dynamics in the long term.
Irrational decision-making, often based on ideology or misinformation, destabilizes governance, fuels conflict, and weakens accountability in international relations.

Pepe Escobar: Iran Fires Back We Will Not Back Down Redlines Are Set!

Mon, 23 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Mideast tensions rise amid U.S.-Iran moves, Russia ties, and BRICS media push.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the current situation in the Middle East, and why is it becoming more dangerous?
How do you interpret the U.S. military buildup near Iran and the possibility of an attack?
What role is Russia playing regarding Iran, especially after Putin's statements in St. Petersburg?
Can BRICS play a significant role in addressing global misinformation and creating alternative media platforms?
How is the conflict between Iran and Israel affecting regional stability, and what are the global implications?

Pepe Escobar:

The Middle East is increasingly fragile due to rising tensions, U.S. military posturing, and Israeli aggression against Iran. The risk of escalation is high, with Washington using deception tactics to keep Tehran off balance.
The U.S. is moving fighter jets and bombers close to Iran, signaling possible aggression. However, there’s also behind-the-scenes diplomacy, such as Putin securing assurances from Trump and Netanyahu not to attack the Bushehr nuclear plant.
Russia is discreetly supporting Iran, particularly in its civilian nuclear program. Putin has publicly dismissed claims that Russia isn’t doing enough for Iran, labeling such narratives as provocations.
BRICS is exploring ways to combat fake news by creating its own media ecosystem, including platforms like BRICSnet or BRICS Tube, to counter Western tech dominance and propaganda.
The conflict is having a unifying effect inside Iran while exposing the desperation of U.S. foreign policy. Any attempt at regime change through military action would likely backfire, triggering broader regional instability and retaliation from Iran and its allies.

Does Iran believe European countries can play a meaningful role in easing tensions with the U.S.?
If the U.S. attacks Iran and Saudi Arabia supports the U.S., how would Iran respond?
How do recent Israeli military actions and Western support impact the region?

Mohammad Marandi:

The talks were firm, with Iran emphasizing enrichment as a red line and rejecting external interference.
Iran is using strategic, unpredictable strikes to deplete Israeli defenses and prepare for future actions.
Europe isn’t seen as important; Iran focuses more on the broader international community for diplomatic support.
Any complicit Gulf states would be targeted, and their alliances with the U.S. would not protect them.
An attack on Iran would lead to severe regional and global consequences, including economic shocks and loss of U.S. influence.

Mohammad Marandi & Pepe Escobar: U.S. STRIKES IRAN And Iran's Response Is Pure DESTRUCTION

Sun, 22 Jun 2025 21:10:47 GMT

U.S. attack failed strategically, hurt credibility, and boosted Iran's global stance.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the outcome of the American attack on Iran, and how credible are U.S. claims about damaging Iran’s nuclear program?
Did Donald Trump achieve his intended goals with the attacks, or is this primarily a PR stunt?
How has the United States' credibility been affected internationally by this attack, especially in the Global South?
How do Russia and China view the U.S. attack on Iran, and what support might they provide to Iran?
How should Iran strategically respond to the U.S. attack, particularly regarding the Strait of Hormuz and Israel?

Pepe Escobar:

The U.S. claims cannot be taken at face value; they likely did not damage underground facilities, and Iran's nuclear program can continue elsewhere.
This was more of a domestic PR stunt than an actual strategic success for Trump, as it failed to deliver meaningful results.
The U.S. has severely damaged its global credibility, especially among the Global South, where it is now seen as dishonest and destructive.
Russia and China have condemned the attack and may offer diplomatic or even material support, including potential nuclear cooperation if needed.
A selective blockade of the Strait of Hormuz could be effective, but Iran seems focused on hitting Israel hard rather than directly attacking U.S. bases.

Mohammad Marandi:

The U.S. attack will not stop Iran’s nuclear program and has exposed Washington as untrustworthy, strengthening Iran’s position globally.
Trump’s actions were not strategic successes and reflect desperation, not strength, undermining U.S. influence further.
Internationally, the U.S. is increasingly viewed as a rogue state, which weakens alliances and damages Western-dominated institutions.
Russia and China have made clear their support for Iran’s civilian nuclear program, and they may increase assistance if tensions escalate.
Iran should focus on economic warfare against Israel and selectively target Western interests without fully closing the Strait of Hormuz for now.

How effective has Western-backed Israel been in achieving its objectives, and what are the implications for regional stability?

Trita Parsi:

Trump initially pursued diplomacy with Iran but shifted to align with Israel’s demands for zero enrichment, derailing negotiations and leading to conflict.
There is no significant internal uprising in Iran; instead, there is a strong rallying around the flag, especially against foreign aggression.
The mainstream media is promoting a false narrative that Israel is winning, which supports warmongering policies and undermines diplomatic efforts.

Ambassador Chas Freeman:

Israel seeks not just nuclear disarmament but the complete subjugation of Iran to ensure regional dominance.
Both Iran and Israel face credibility issues, but Israel's actions—backed by the U.S.—are the primary source of regional instability.
A potential solution lies in a shared regional enrichment program, but meaningful talks can only happen once hostilities begin to wind down.

Colonel Wilkerson:

The real threat to global stability is the U.S.-Israel alliance, driven by a group of elites aiming to counter China and Russia.
Iran is effectively resisting Israel, causing significant strain on Israeli military resources and morale.
Escalating this conflict could lead to broader regional or even global war, especially if the U.S. directly intervenes militarily.

Graham E. Fuller: From Bad to DISASTER Is Trump the Real Problem

Sun, 22 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Israel under Trump's leadership, amid rising regional tensions.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

How do you interpret the recent Israeli attack on Iran and its implications?
What role did intelligence collaboration play in the attack?
How does this attack compare to previous escalations, like the Russia-Ukraine conflict?
How might Russia and China respond if the U.S. escalates the conflict?
What are your thoughts on Trump’s potential involvement in the war?

Graham E. Fuller:

The attack reflects a dangerous shift toward assassination-based foreign policy and regime change goals by Israel.
Intelligence suggests long-term collaboration with inside actors in Iran over more than a decade to prepare for the strike.
Unlike Ukraine, this attack combines multiple regional tensions, including Lebanon and Russia, raising broader escalation risks.
Both Russia and China want to avoid direct involvement; however, they may push for diplomatic solutions to prevent nuclear proliferation.
Trump is unpredictable, but pressure from pro-Israel advisors likely influenced his stance, though he may avoid full escalation depending on how events unfold.

Larry C. Johnson: Iran PUNCHES Through Israel's Defenses U.S. on WAR FOOTING!

Sun, 22 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

China backs Iran; Israel struggles; U.S. attack risks global conflict.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the significance of the Chinese ships entering the Persian Gulf?
How does Iran's military capability compare to Israel's in the current conflict?
What role do China and Russia play in supporting Iran amid rising tensions?
Is there a possibility of the U.S. launching a direct attack on Iran, and what could be the consequences?
How effective are Israel’s air defense systems against Iranian missile strikes?

Larry C. Johnson:

The presence of Chinese surveillance ships in the Persian Gulf likely aims to gather intelligence on Israeli and U.S. military activities, signaling China’s strategic interest in protecting its regional allies.
Iran has a larger and more diverse missile arsenal, while Israel struggles with limited defensive capabilities and resupply issues, making it increasingly vulnerable.
China and Russia support Iran economically and militarily, helping it resist Western pressure and reinforcing alternative global trade routes outside U.S. influence.
A U.S. attack on Iran could escalate into a broader regional or even global conflict, especially if Russia and China intervene, and may face strong domestic and international opposition.
Israeli air defenses are overwhelmed by the volume and accuracy of Iranian missiles, often requiring multiple interceptors per target, leading to rapid depletion of supplies.

Dmitry Orlov: U.S. About to ATTACK Iran Military Clash IMMINENT.

Sat, 21 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Israel-Iran clash failed to topple regime; unity rose, diplomacy still key.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What are the implications of recent attacks between Iran and Israel, and how do they compare to previous conflicts?
How does the strategy used in Iran compare to what was seen in Russia at the start of the special military operation?
Is regime change in Iran a realistic goal for Israel and the U.S., given the current circumstances?
Can the U.S. achieve its objectives regarding Iran’s nuclear program through military action or negotiations?
How might the conflict influence the geopolitical strategies of Russia and China?

Dimitri Orlov:

The Israeli attack on Iran failed to destabilize the regime, with Iran quickly retaliating and demonstrating resilience, unlike expectations of regime collapse.
Similar to Russia in 2022, sleeper cells and foreign agents were exposed in Iran, leading to purges and strengthening internal unity against external threats.
Regime change is unlikely; the attack strengthened Iranian patriotism and cohesion rather than causing internal division.
Military action won't stop Iran's nuclear ambitions. Negotiations are undermined by U.S. credibility issues, especially after Trump's actions.
Russia and China prioritize stability in Iran due to economic and strategic interests, and they will support Iran to prevent Western dominance.

Norman Solomon: Déjà Vu, Iraq War Lies Return, Targeting Iran Now.

Sat, 21 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

U.S.-Iran tensions echo Iraq War fears, with regime change and nukes in focus.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

How does the current situation with Iran compare to past conflicts like Iraq?
What is your take on Trump's ambiguous stance regarding potential military action against Iran?
Do you see parallels between the propaganda before the Iraq War and the rhetoric around Iran today?
What are the main issues in the talks between Iran and the U.S.?
Do you think the primary goal of the U.S. and Israel is regime change in Iran or targeting its nuclear program?

Norman Solomon:

We’re witnessing a demagogic approach from Trump, treating global affairs as his plaything, backed by the U.S. military-industrial complex.
There are chilling parallels to the Iraq War—manufactured threats, fearmongering, and dangerous rhetoric about preemptive strikes.
The U.S. demands unrealistic terms like no enrichment, ignoring peaceful civilian uses of nuclear technology in Iran.
Regime change is definitely on the agenda for some, particularly Netanyahu, though it’s irrational and could lead to catastrophic outcomes.
Using nuclear weapons, even tactical ones, would be suicidal and heighten global risks to human survival.

Richard Wolff & Michael Hudson: Iran"s Supreme Leader Fires Back at Trump with Final Warning!

Sat, 21 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

U.S. backs Israel to maintain power, oil control, and stop global de-dollarization.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the broader historical context of U.S. involvement in the Middle East, particularly with Iran and Israel?
Why does the U.S. continue to support Israel despite global criticism?
How do U.S.-Iran tensions relate to the broader geopolitical struggle over de-dollarization and colonialism?
Is a potential U.S. attack on Iran driven by Israeli interests or larger U.S. strategic goals?
What are the implications of escalating tensions between the U.S., Iran, and its allies like Russia and China?

Richard Wolff:

The U.S. involvement in the Middle East is part of the end of centuries-long colonialism, where former colonies are asserting independence, and the West is trying to resist this shift.
Israel survives only because of U.S. backing; without it, it could not withstand regional opposition. It serves as a proxy for U.S. control of oil and regional influence.
Tensions with Iran are tied to U.S. efforts to halt China’s Belt and Road Initiative and maintain financial dominance by blocking alternative economic alliances.
Israel is a junior partner; the U.S. is pulling the strings. The conflict serves American imperial strategy more than Israeli national interest.
Escalation will likely fail, as history shows that empires cannot stop the march of decolonization and multipolarity.

Michael Hudson:

U.S. policy in the Middle East is about maintaining control over oil and preventing countries from escaping the dollar-based financial system.
The U.S. has long sought to divide Iran ethnically to weaken it, similar to strategies used against Russia and China.
Iran is key to U.S. plans to block China’s Silk Road and Russia’s access to southern trade routes, making it central to global power struggles.
While Israel may believe it acts independently, it is ultimately controlled by U.S. interests and used to distract attention from American imperialism.
A war with Iran would be economically self-defeating for the U.S., accelerating global de-dollarization and increasing inflation worldwide.

Alex Krainer: IRAN UNLEASHES HELL on Tel Aviv-U.S. War Countdown

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Israel-Iran clash risks wider war; diplomacy possible but tensions rising fast.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your view on the recent Israeli attack on Iran and its implications?
How do you assess the role of Western intelligence agencies in supporting Israel’s actions?
What are the potential consequences if the U.S. directly intervenes in the conflict between Iran and Israel?
Do you believe there is a possibility for diplomatic resolution between Iran and the West?
How does the current geopolitical tension impact regional stability, especially in the Middle East?

Alex Krainer:

The Israeli attack on Iran was partially successful but strategically risky, given Israel's limited resources and the strong response from Iran.
Western intelligence agencies, including the CIA and MI6, have played a major role in enabling Israel’s operations through extensive support and intelligence sharing.
If the U.S. intervenes, it could lead to a broader regional war, significantly destabilizing the Middle East and damaging Western interests globally.
There is potential for diplomacy, especially if negotiations continue behind the scenes, but the aggressive stance of pro-Israel factions complicates peaceful outcomes.
The tensions are already causing instability, with possible regime changes in allied states, increased resistance movements, and economic disruptions like oil price surges.

David Pyne: Trump's Deranged Drive for WW3 with Iran

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Trump swayed by pro-Israel figures; risks war with Iran; diplomacy eroding.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Do you believe Donald Trump is being influenced by pro-Israel figures in his administration?
Could Trump’s actions lead to a broader conflict with Iran and potentially World War III?
Is Netanyahu gaining any real strategic advantage from attacking Iran?
How significant is the role of international institutions like IAEA being undermined in this conflict?
Can Trump still change course, or is he set on escalating tensions with Iran?

David Pyne:

Yes, Trump is heavily influenced by neoconservatives and pro-Israel figures like Rubio, Waltz, and Ratcliffe.
Yes, Trump’s escalation could provoke Iran, Russia, and China, risking a global conflict.
Netanyahu may gain short-term victories, but long-term consequences will likely be devastating for Israel.
The erosion of institutions like the IAEA undermines global diplomacy and trust in international frameworks.
Trump can still pivot, but only if pressured by allies and supporters who oppose war with Iran.

Andrei Martyanov: This War Could Break America, Iran Won't Be Another Iraq.

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Israeli strike failed; West uses drones pre-talks; IAEA, Trump lack credibility.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the recent attack between Iran and Israel, and how does it relate to the upcoming negotiations between the U.S. and Iran?
How do you view the effectiveness of Israel’s military actions against Iran, particularly in targeting its nuclear program?
Can you compare the similarities between the attacks on Russia and Iran, especially regarding the use of drones and timing before negotiations?
What are your thoughts on the role of international organizations like the IAEA in addressing concerns about Iran's nuclear program?
How do you perceive the involvement of the Trump administration in Middle Eastern affairs, particularly with regard to Iran and Israel?

Andrei Martianov:

The recent Israeli attack on Iran was well-prepared by Mossad and other Western intelligence agencies but ultimately failed to cripple Iran's capabilities or morale. It was likely timed to pressure Iran before negotiations.
Israel and the U.S. are not capable of completely destroying Iran's nuclear program through airstrikes. Their air defense systems are outdated and ineffective against modern missile technology.
Both attacks on Russia and Iran show a similar pattern—covert operations, drone strikes, and confusion. These tactics reflect a one-trick-pony approach by Western intelligence agencies like the CIA, MI6, and Mossad.
The IAEA has been compromised and operates more as an extension of Western interests rather than as an impartial organization. Its leadership lacks technical expertise, undermining its credibility.
The Trump administration is chaotic, influenced heavily by pro-Israeli and Christian Zionist advisors. Trump himself is seen as erratic and unfit for serious diplomacy, surrounding himself with questionable figures who serve foreign interests over American ones.

Ray McGovern & John Helmer: The Death of an Empire, Iran Could Finish What Others Started

Thu, 19 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

US unlikely to strike Iran; nuclear threat overstated; diplomacy limits prevail.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the likelihood of the U.S. launching a direct strike on Iran's nuclear facilities?
How credible are reports that Iran is developing nuclear weapons?
Can Russia effectively mediate between Israel and Iran to de-escalate tensions?
Is the Trump administration likely to prioritize regional stability over regime change in Iran?
How significant is China’s role in countering U.S. influence in the Persian Gulf?

John Helmer:

The U.S. is unlikely to launch a direct strike due to risks of escalation and lack of international support.
Reports about Iran developing nukes are largely unfounded; intelligence confirms no active weapon program since 2003.
Russia could mediate, but its public stance avoids direct confrontation with the U.S., limiting effectiveness.
Trump appears more focused on projecting strength than long-term stability, increasing unpredictability.
China’s role is strategic but limited by reluctance to deploy military force in the region.

Ray McGovern:

Direct strikes remain possible under Trump, but internal and global pushback makes it unlikely.
Claims about Iran’s nuclear ambitions are often exaggerated or politicized to justify aggression.
Russia has mediation potential but must balance ties with both sides without triggering conflict.
Regime change remains a covert priority despite short-term rhetoric favoring diplomacy.
China prefers economic leverage over military action, making its role supportive but not decisive in the Gulf.

Mohammad Marandi: Iran Just Cracked Israel's Iron Dome

Thu, 19 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Iran defiant, Israel strikes civilians, IAEA biased, war looms, Arab role unclear.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the main message of the Iranian Supreme Leader's response to Trump’s threats?
What are the main goals and targets of Israel's attacks in Tehran?
What is happening with the IAEA, and why does it seem inconsistent in its statements about Iran’s nuclear program?
How effective have Israel’s missile defense systems been against Iranian attacks, and will Iran escalate its strikes?
Is there an evaluation within Iran that Arab states might join Israel in attacking Iran?

Mohammad Marandi:

The Supreme Leader emphasized that Iran will not be intimidated or surrender, warning that any U.S. strike would result in greater harm to America than Iran.
Israel has targeted civilian areas including hospitals, ambulances, and buildings like the Red Crescent, showing no regard for human life and continuing its aggressive policies with Western backing.
The IAEA is politically driven, dominated by Western members who align with U.S. interests, making its reports biased and unreliable.
Iran is strategically exhausting Israeli and American missile defenses while preparing for a potential counterattack that could destabilize the global economy.
While Arab states haven't directly joined Israel, they host U.S. bases and support Western policies; however, Iran assumes Trump will attack regardless, and is prepared for war.

Col. Larry Wilkerson: Is War with Iran the Final Blow to the American Empire.

Thu, 19 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

War with Iran may hasten U.S. decline; risks global conflict; intel dubious.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Do you believe a war with Iran could mark the final decline of the American empire?
How do you assess the credibility of U.S. intelligence claims about Iran’s nuclear capabilities?
What role do you think the IAEA played in enabling an attack on Iran?
Is Israel capable of sustaining a prolonged conflict with Iran without U.S. support?
Could the current tensions in the Middle East escalate into a global conflict?

Col. Larry Wilkerson:

A war with Iran could severely weaken the U.S., especially under current leadership and global dynamics.
Intelligence claims appear inconsistent; historical parallels suggest manipulation to justify conflict.
The IAEA likely provided critical data to Israel, aiding targeted strikes on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.
Israel heavily relies on U.S. backing and would struggle to maintain momentum in a drawn-out conflict.
Escalation is possible, especially with interconnected tensions involving Russia, China, and NATO.

Strikes disrupt nukes, IAEA seen biased, Israel ties risk war, intel key but flawed.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the capability of conventional weapons to destroy deeply buried nuclear facilities in Iran?
How effective do you think targeted military actions are in halting a country's nuclear program, especially considering dispersed equipment and expertise?
Do you believe that the IAEA maintains impartiality in its monitoring of nuclear programs globally?
What risks do you see in aligning U.S. foreign policy closely with Israel’s security concerns?
How significant is the role of intelligence accuracy in shaping decisions about military action against Iran?

Scott Ritter:

Conventional weapons may not be sufficient to destroy deeply buried facilities; even nuclear weapons might fail without precise targeting.
Military strikes can disrupt but not eliminate nuclear programs, as knowledge and infrastructure can be relocated or hidden.
The IAEA is seen as biased, especially when comparing how it handles different countries like Iran and Japan.
Aligning too closely with Israel could lead to dangerous escalations, including potential nuclear conflict involving Pakistan or others.
Intelligence accuracy is crucial, but there are concerns about politicization, especially if the U.S. president relies on unofficial or foreign sources.

Scott Ritter: IRAN HITS HERZLIYA AND TEL AVIV Daylight War Begins!

Wed, 18 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Israel hit Iran to disrupt U.S. talks; Iran struck back, exposing intel failures.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What were the immediate consequences of the Israeli attack on Iran, particularly regarding the negotiations between Iran and the U.S.?
How did Iran respond to the surprise attack by Israel?
Why was Iran seemingly unprepared for the Israeli strike despite high alert protocols?
What role did intelligence services play in the broader context of the Israeli attack on Iran?
Considering the ongoing conflict, how might the situation evolve into a war of attrition?

Scott Ritter:

The Israeli attack was strategically timed to undermine potential agreements between Iran and the U.S., with Trump misleading Iran about the negotiations while collaborating with Israel.
Iran responded decisively, launching retaliatory strikes against Israel, proving its resilience despite initial setbacks.
Iran believed negotiations were genuine and lowered its guard, allowing Israel to exploit this complacency with a surprise strike.
Intelligence collaboration between Israel, the U.S., and possibly other nations played a significant role in planning and executing the attack, including drone operations previously seen in Ukraine.
Israel's military capacity is limited in sustaining prolonged campaigns, while Iran has demonstrated endurance, suggesting Israel may weaken over time unless external support escalates.

Laith Marouf: This Fight Between Iran and Israel Will Reshape the Middle East.

Wed, 18 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Iran struck back effectively; Arab states insincere; Israel overplayed its hand.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your take on how Iran is responding to Israel?
How do you see the behavior of Arab states, Turkey, and others amid this confrontation?
Do you think Israel believed they could end Iran's nuclear program or trigger regime change?
Can Israel sustain a war of attrition with Iran?
What’s happening in Lebanon, and what is the main discussion there now?

Leith Marouf:

Iran was prepared for the attack and has effectively filled gaps in its military structure, executing crucial strikes against Israel.
Statements by Saudi, Qatari, and Emirati leaders condemning Israel are insincere; they actively support attacks on Iran through intelligence, funding, and logistics.
Israel likely overestimated its capabilities, believing their own propaganda, and failed to understand their limitations, leading them to attack Iran recklessly.
Israel cannot sustain a war of attrition; they rely heavily on Western air defense systems, which may only last 15 days under continuous Iranian attacks.
In Lebanon, people are celebrating Iran's retaliation, watching Iranian missiles strike Israeli targets, and the morale across the region is high despite ongoing Israeli aggression.

Paul Craig Roberts: Can Trump Be Trusted

Tue, 17 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

U.S. Mideast policy is contradictory, risky, and losing influence regionally.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your perspective on the U.S. foreign policy contradictions in the Middle East?
How do you interpret Trump’s role in the recent Israeli-Iran tensions?
Do you believe Netanyahu’s statements about Pakistan and Iran indicate a broader agenda?
What are your thoughts on the risks of nuclear conflict due to false flag operations?
How do you assess the effectiveness of U.S. influence in the region, particularly regarding Saudi Arabia and Iran?

Paul Craig Roberts:

U.S. foreign policy seems contradictory, with public denials and behind-the-scenes coordination with Israel, risking unintended escalation.
Trump appears to be playing a duplicitous role, negotiating with Iran while enabling Israeli attacks, possibly under pressure from pro-Israel factions.
Netanyahu’s comments suggest a dangerous expansionist agenda that could destabilize the region further, including potential threats to Pakistan.
The risk of nuclear conflict is growing, especially with false flag operations or miscalculations, as seen in recent unexplained attacks on Russian assets.
U.S. influence is waning; despite efforts to control outcomes, regional actors like Iran and Russia are asserting independence, challenging American dominance.

What is happening between Iran and Israel, and why is it considered unbelievable?
How does Netanyahu's attack on Iran relate to the Iranian nuclear program?
What role did Donald Trump play in the situation involving Iran and Israel?
Why is attacking individuals involved in negotiations seen as problematic?
What are the potential consequences of an unprovoked attack on Iran?

Prof. Ted Postol:

The conflict involves Netanyahu claiming to target Iran’s nuclear program, but his actions seem driven by a desire for war rather than diplomacy.
The attack undermines any possibility of peaceful negotiations, with Netanyahu actively sabotaging diplomatic efforts.
Trump reportedly gave Netanyahu permission to act against Iran, but his domestic and foreign issues limit his ability to control events.
Killing negotiators—like those from Hamas or the U.S.—destroys trust and makes future talks nearly impossible, escalating tensions instead.
The attack could lead to regional or even global escalation, especially with ongoing conflicts like Ukraine, and threatens stability worldwide.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the recent conflict between Iran and Israel?
How do you interpret the role of Western intelligence in targeting Iranian scientists?
What are the implications of the U.S. unilaterally canceling talks with Russia?
Do you believe the IAEA remains a credible organization for nuclear oversight?
How do you see the involvement of global powers like Russia and China shaping the current crisis?

Larry C. Johnson:

The recent conflict exposes vulnerabilities in Iran’s counterintelligence, but also highlights the aggressive tactics used by Israel and its allies.
Western intelligence collaboration with groups like the MEK has been pivotal in targeting key figures, undermining Iran's security.
The cancellation of U.S.-Russia talks reflects Washington’s erratic foreign policy, likely escalating tensions rather than de-escalating them.
The IAEA has lost credibility due to its alignment with Western interests, especially after being used to facilitate attacks on Iranian scientists.
Russia and China are likely to support Iran indirectly, but direct involvement would risk broader global conflict, which they aim to avoid.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the recent Israeli attack on Iran and its implications?
How do you evaluate the initial lack of response from Iran's air defense systems?
Do you believe Israel underestimated Iran’s military capabilities in this conflict?
How significant is the role of Western support for separatist movements inside Iran?
What impact could this conflict have on Israeli society and its political leadership?

Col. Jacques Baud:

The initial hours of the attack suggest a tactical approach by Israel, aiming to identify and target Iranian defenses. However, Iran’s measured response indicates resilience and strategic planning.
There may have been deliberate delays in activating certain defense systems to avoid revealing their full capabilities early in the attack.
Yes, Israel likely overestimated its technological superiority while underestimating Iran’s ability to respond effectively and calibrated its retaliation carefully.
Separatist movements supported by the West pose a potential threat, but they are unlikely to destabilize Iran significantly due to strong national unity during crises.
The societal impact in Israel could be profound as civilians now experience war firsthand, potentially leading to internal pressure for policy changes, though radicalization remains a risk.

Questions for Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Why did Iran appear unprepared for the Israeli attack?
How do you explain the effectiveness of Iran’s response despite initial setbacks?
Are there similarities between the attacks on Iran and those in Russia?

Mohammed Marandi:

Iran was on high alert but faces a large, coordinated coalition involving Israel, the U.S., and regional allies using bases in Iraq, Syria, Jordan, and Turkey. This made defense extremely challenging.
Despite losing senior commanders and initial air defense failures, Iran regrouped quickly, launching retaliatory strikes and strengthening its defenses, showing resilience and capability.
Yes, the same actors planned both attacks. The tactics—such as drone strikes coordinated via social media and cryptocurrency—are nearly identical to those used in Russia.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the recent Israeli attacks on Iran and their strategic implications?
How do you interpret Russia's accusations against the UK and Israel regarding coordination in attacks on Iranian territory?
Do you believe the West’s strategy toward Iran has shifted back to regime change, and if so, why?

Pepe Escobar:

The Israeli attacks were cyber-physical strikes aimed at disrupting Iran’s military infrastructure, but Tehran quickly recovered its defenses and retaliated with resolve.
Russia’s claims about UK-Israeli coordination are credible, given the pattern of Western involvement in regional conflicts, though London denies any participation.
Yes, the U.S., backed by neoconservatives and Israeli interests, is clearly pursuing regime change, as seen in historical plans like the “Clean Break” and the Brookings Institution’s 2009 report advocating destabilizing Iran through pressure and sabotage.

Col. Larry Wilkerson and Chas Freeman: Israel's attack on Iran and Its DEVASTATING Consequences

Sat, 14 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Israel's strike may escalate tensions; U.S. ties, deception, and oil deals noted.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your view on the recent Israeli attack on Iran and its implications?
How do you interpret Trump’s contradictory statements regarding the attack?
Do you believe the attack will lead to a diplomatic resolution or further escalation?

Amb. Chas Freeman:

The attack was likely intended to sabotage peace talks and create pressure on Iran, but it may have the opposite effect.
Trump's message before the attack seems deceptive, aimed at keeping Iran off guard, which is not uncommon in warfare.
This move might push Iran toward pursuing nuclear weapons, which could significantly escalate tensions in the region.

Col. Larry Wilkerson:

The operation shows deep coordination between Israel, the U.S., and intelligence agencies like Mossad and CIA.
There appears to be a quid pro quo involving oil infrastructure, as no Israeli strikes targeted Iranian oil facilities.
The use of drones and covert operations highlights dangerous precedents in international conflict and diplomacy.

Mohammed Marandi & Larry C. Johnson: Israel Strikes Iran, Iran to HIT BACK HARD!

Fri, 13 Jun 2025 19:08:56 GMT

Israel hit Iran; U.S. aided to pressure Iran; Iran plans strong response.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What has happened in Iran, and why did the U.S. support Israel's plan to attack Iran?
Did the Israeli attack achieve its intended goals?
How is Europe responding to the situation, and why are they framing Iran negatively?

Larry C. Johnson:

The U.S. was directly involved in planning the attack—sharing intelligence, supplying weapons, and coordinating with Israel. Trump openly admitted knowing about the attack in advance.
No, the attack did not achieve a decisive victory. Similar to past conflicts, initial claims of success often fade as reality sets in. Iran suffered damage but remains capable of retaliation.
Western media and leaders are engaged in an organized campaign to demonize Iran. They use misinformation, political bias, and historical distortions to justify Israeli actions.

Professor Morandi:

Iran expected attacks on military or nuclear sites but not the targeting of senior officials. This was a major miscalculation. New commanders are now in place, and Iran will respond severely.
No, the full impact is unclear. There’s a lot of fake news and psychological warfare against Iran, including AI-generated content. Some reports are false, while others confirm real damage and casualties.
European statements are misleading and politically motivated. Iran is acting within international law regarding its nuclear program. These countries are complicit in supporting Israel’s actions.

1. What is your view on the Israeli attack on Iran amid U.S. negotiations with Iran?

2. How do you assess Israel’s behavior in the Middle East, especially with recent escalations in Gaza and Iran?

3. What role do you think the United States plays in the Middle East, particularly regarding potential regime change in Iran?

Dmitry Orlov:

1. The U.S. isn’t genuinely negotiating with Iran; Trump’s approach is inconsistent and unreliable. The Israeli attack achieves little and highlights incompetence on both sides.

2. Israel’s actions are driven by domestic political needs rather than strategic success. Its military efforts in Gaza and elsewhere have failed to produce meaningful outcomes beyond destruction.

3.Regime change in Iran through targeted attacks is unrealistic. The U.S. lacks a coherent strategy, and Arab states are unlikely to get deeply involved in what is seen as a regional conflict between Israel and Iran.

Col. Richard Black & Col. Daniel Davis: U.S. Sleepwalking Into War with Iran While Ukraine Burns.

Fri, 13 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

Europe lacks a clear leader; Zelensky has limited control; AI war claims are hype.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Who do you believe is the main leader or driving force behind Europe’s current political and military decisions?
Do you think Zelensky is a puppet of Western powers, or does he have independent influence over European actions?
What is your assessment of recent Ukrainian attacks on Russian military assets, particularly in relation to AI technology?

Col. Daniel Davis:

There is no single leader in Europe; it's more of a collective effort with figures like Macron, Starmer, and von der Leyen occasionally stepping forward.
Zelensky is not clearly controlled by any one group; he has visibility and status but not necessarily dominance in decision-making.
Claims about AI-driven warfare are exaggerated; real combat still depends on manpower, which Ukraine is severely lacking.

Col. Richard Black:

European leadership is fragmented, with different leaders taking turns to push agendas while avoiding unified responsibility.
Zelensky is an unelected leader being used as a tool by NATO without genuine democratic legitimacy.
The war is unsustainable for Ukraine, and reliance on technology like AI is fantasy; Russia continues to gain strength while Ukraine weakens.

Richard Wolff & Michael Hudson: The Next War Could Shatter the U.S. Economy

Fri, 13 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

U.S. hypocrisy, Middle East stalemate, Gaza deadlock, proxy wars, nuclear risks.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Why do you think Tulsi Gabbard's comments on nuclear war are significant given her position?
How would you describe the current state of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East?
What makes the situation in Gaza a key example of global political stalemate?

Richard Wolff:

Tulsi’s speech is hypocritical because the U.S. is the only country to use nuclear weapons and has never apologized.
The Middle East is in a stalemate due to Western interference, rising Arab influence, and shifting global power dynamics.
Gaza shows the stalemate because the world opposes Israel but can’t stop the violence—U.N. votes prove this divide.

Michael Hudson:

U.S. foreign policy revolves around oil control, which drives its alliances and conflicts, including with Iran and Russia.
Democracies avoid large-scale war due to draft resistance; instead, they rely on proxy forces like Israel or militant groups.
Deep state actors like the CIA and MI6 push for confrontation, believing the U.S. can win a nuclear war—a dangerous illusion.

Alex Krainer: Iran Vows to OBLITERATE Israeli Attack War Imminent

Fri, 13 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

U.S.-Iran tension rises; evacuation hints at conflict, policy risks escalation.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is your assessment of the U.S. evacuation of military families from the Middle East?
How do you view the possibility of Iran pursuing nuclear weapons, and what role does U.S. policy play in this?
What are the risks of escalating tensions between the U.S., Israel, and Iran in the current geopolitical climate?

Alex Krainer:

The U.S. evacuation appears to be a precautionary measure, signaling potential conflict but also highlighting American concerns over regional security. Trump's approach seems transactional, aiming to pressure Iran without direct confrontation.
Iran has consistently denied seeking nuclear weapons. The real issue is sovereignty—U.S. demands undermine Iran’s right to peaceful nuclear technology. The hypocrisy lies in ignoring Israel’s nuclear arsenal while targeting Iran.
Escalation could lead to devastating consequences for U.S. and Israeli interests, including economic shocks from soaring oil prices and irreversible regional instability. A military strike on Iran would not dismantle its program and could provoke broader conflict.

Graham E. Fuller: Trump's Mind-Boggling Blunders Clueless or Calculated

Thu, 12 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

The FT piece boosts morale by overstating Ukraine’s strength; UK signals support to rally Europe; Trump’s stance is curbed by internal U.S. pressures.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

Do you believe the Financial Times article on Ukraine’s AI and drone capabilities is more rhetoric than reality?
Is the UK genuinely looking to reduce its involvement in Ukraine, or is it trying to boost European morale?
Why does Donald Trump appear hesitant or weak in his approach toward Ukraine compared to other U.S. leaders?

Graham E. Fuller:

The FT article seems exaggerated, likely aimed at boosting Western morale by portraying Ukraine as self-sufficient and capable of winning without major Western support.
The UK is not ready to withdraw but wants Europe to stay committed, using positive narratives to keep hope alive and counter U.S.-based skepticism.
Trump isn’t necessarily misinformed, but he faces strong internal opposition from hawkish factions in Congress and lobbying groups that limit his ability to push for negotiations.

Ray McGovern & John Helmer: Russia's Offensive SHATTERS Ukraine's Army Frontlines COLLAPSE!

Thu, 12 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

Tulsi Gabbard warns of nuclear war risk; NATO urges pressure on Russia; understanding history is key to resolving tensions effectively.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is Tulsi Gabbard’s main concern regarding nuclear weapons?
How does the NATO Secretary General propose to end the Ukraine war?
Why is understanding history important in dealing with Russia, according to the discussion?

John Helmer:

Tulsi Gabbard warns about the growing risk of nuclear war and stresses the need for global action to prevent it.
The NATO Secretary General suggests targeting Russia’s industrial capacity to force negotiations.
History shapes current tensions and must be understood to effectively engage with Russia.

Ray McGovern:

She highlights the danger of reckless escalation by political elites who may not face the consequences.
Ending the war requires a serious Russian willingness to negotiate, not just repeating past demands.
Ignoring historical context leads to flawed strategies and misunderstandings in international relations.

Laith Marouf: The Resistance Is Regrouping Preparing for All-Out Chaos

Thu, 12 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Talks intensify with Iran involved; Gaza aid blocked amid crisis; Hezbollah quietly arms for possible war, backed by regional allies.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the current status of negotiations between the U.S., Israel, Hamas, and Iran?
How is aid delivery being affected in Gaza amid ongoing violence?
What role does Hezbollah play in Lebanon's political and military landscape?

Laith Marouf:

The negotiations are at a critical point, with Iran now openly involved, signaling a shift from previous mediators like Qatar and Egypt.
Aid delivery remains blocked, with reports of mass starvation, high casualties, and worsening humanitarian conditions, including thousands of miscarriages due to malnutrition.
Hezbollah is preparing for potential war with Israel, staying low-key while rearming and organizing, with possible support from Syrian Shia and Alawi refugees inside Lebanon.

Col. Larry Wilkerson: This ONE Thing Is Destroying the U.S From Within

Wed, 11 Jun 2025 19:00:00 GMT

U.S.-Iran talks hinge on enrichment limits; Netanyahu’s stance aids Trump but adds complexity; nuclear action risks global chaos.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What is the main issue in the negotiations between the U.S. and Iran regarding enrichment?
How does the recent conversation between Netanyahu and Trump affect the negotiation dynamics?
What are the potential global consequences if the U.S. decides to use nuclear weapons against Iran?

Col. Larry Wilkerson:

The core issue revolves around Iran’s enrichment level, which the U.S. sees as a red line due to proliferation concerns.
Netanyahu’s reported approval of low-level enrichment gives Trump more flexibility but complicates the political landscape.
A nuclear strike would trigger severe global economic and political fallout, destabilizing international relations and markets.

Scott Ritter: On the Edge of Chaos NATO & Russia Headed for a Deadly Clash

Wed, 11 Jun 2025 11:00:00 GMT

NATO urges strong Ukraine support; Britain backs covert tactics, long-range strikes target Russian industry to pressure Putin into talks.

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

What did the NATO Secretary General say about ending the war in Ukraine?
Did he mention anything specific about targeting Russian industrial capacity?
How does Britain’s role factor into the strategy of keeping Ukraine “in the fight”?

Scott Ritter:

The NATO Secretary General emphasized that bringing Putin to the negotiating table requires serious intent from Russia and sustained support for Ukraine.
Yes, there was an implied strategy of targeting Russian industrial capacity with long-range strikes, especially supported by Britain and Germany.
Britain is seen as pushing an asymmetrical approach, using covert actions and psychological pressure to weaken Russian resolve without direct large-scale combat.

Paul Craig Roberts: Trump's In DEEP Trouble And It's WAY Worse Than You Think

Wed, 11 Jun 2025 01:00:00 GMT

Nima Rostami Alkhorshid:

How effective has the EU's policy been in trying to lower Russian oil prices during the Ukraine conflict?
Given statements from German intelligence alleging Russia wants to conquer Ukraine and threaten Europe, how should Russia respond to seemingly unreasonable Western leaders?
How much of a challenge is the Ukraine situation for Donald Trump, considering domestic pressures and foreign policy expectations?

Paul Craig Roberts:

The EU can't control global oil prices—only producers like Russia and Saudi Arabia can. European leaders lack competence, and high energy prices result from their own tax policies.
Putin’s soft approach invites greater Western provocation, risking wider war. To stop escalation, he should act decisively—some even suggest dramatic moves like targeting NATO assets.
Trump's bigger issue is domestic: mass illegal immigration, civil unrest, and a hostile Democrat establishment. Foreign policy is secondary to what he faces at home—a coordinated insurrection.

Col. Larry Wilkerson: Israel’s Defeat: Everything Falling Apart - Russia CRUSHING Ukraine’s Army

Sun, 29 Sep 2024 23:20:19 GMT

Col. (ret.) Lawrence Wilkerson's last positions in government were as Secretary of State Colin Powell's Chief of Staff (2002-05), Associate Director of the State Department's Policy Planning staff under the directorship of Ambassador Richard N. Haass, and member of that staff responsible for East Asia and the Pacific, political-military and legislative affairs (2001-02).
