@Reuters While Spain's action might be called righteous from their view, the result has been a convergence with the anti-Western and anti-Israel narratives utilized by the IRGC. China has indeed a firm grip of Narrative forming within Spain. Did the Spamouflage not end?

Spain ramps up criticism of Israel, US, defying Trump threats reut.rs/4eb3T1K reut.rs/4eb3T1K

What we are seeing today is that the world recognises parts of Lebanon and Yemen as part of the IRGC territory by following the IRGC demands. Short Term Peace to satisfy some in exchange for a prolong suffering... and so the 'wheel of Jihad' keeps spinning. How will you disarm Hezbollah? Similar to Hamas? During the war against ISIS this was only possible after throwing close to 50 000 ISIS Member into prison.

#Lebanon | France condemns in the strongest terms the massive strikes carried out on 8 April by Israel on Lebanon, including many districts of Beirut. ➡️ fdip.fr/du9vbsyk

@IDFSpokesperson Israel should find a way with Lebanon together to disarm Hezbollah. This most likely will not happen in a peaceful manner, but gives you more public strategic opportunity. If the Lebanese government wants to negotiate you should take that up. Most Lebanese are not your enemy.

@ThomasPitt44325 @ischinger Thanks for this well-founded criticism. Since you haven’t even been able to sleep in the last few months, I can certainly understand your concerns. However, if you’re using a VPN with a U.S. location from Asia, you shouldn’t make that obvious. "Engagement Bots auf die 1"

@ParDPie @ischinger Ja klar, hätte Europa mitgemacht bei operation epic failure, wäre alles gut geworden..

Vorläufiges bitteres Fazit: - Durchbruch weder bei Regimechange noch bei Nuklear noch bei US Kontrolle über iran.Öl - USA bleibt in Nahost gebunden (u damit abhängig u. a. v Ramstein) - Pyrrhus Sieg Israel? - 1:0 China/US? - EU nicht existent - keine Schadenfreude bitte!

@ischinger One thing holds truth: The IRGC dominates the European Information Space.

@ischinger Das Ziel der Türkei und Pakistan ist es eine Situation zu schaffen in der Israel weiterhin gegen den Iran und seiner externen Zellen kämpft.

@ischinger ...The price - if not handled now - will be far higher in the future. If no one can show another path not some mere words an paper...everything can stop.

@ischinger The choice of words might be a bit over the top. Yet, some systems do not reform until they encounter limits they cannot absorb. Thus it becomes a battle against an integrated threat system that can only be broken by changing the nature of the region itself...

Not sure threatening to bomb the country “ into the stone age” is the true and tried recipe to motivate the people of Iran to get rid of their regime. In diplomacy 101 we learn about the Wagenburg effect -people closing ranks with repressive leadership against foreign aggression

@sikorskiradek ..between Syria Lebanon and Israel. There is a clear lack of reality within that statement. Hezbollah's role and the fact that Hezbollah will never disarm. The same as for Hamas. Anyone who does not realise that the IRGC started this war lacks clear strategic understanding

@sikorskiradek Dear @sikorskiradek it is just a statement to appease themself. Neither will any country listed here help disarm Hezbollah nor will any country make UNIFIL useful. The Lebanese actors know they can't disarm Hezbollah so they let the IDF do the dirty job. There is already talks..

It’s getting worse since then. diplomatie.belgium.be/en/news/joint-…

@RapidResponse47 @SecWar @SecRubio @VP Q: Is the US power still capable of defending its interest when the sea itself becomes an arena of challenge? Or will the moment of Hormuz and Bab al-Mandab mark the beginning of retreat from the heart of the domain on which the American empire was founded?

.@SecRubio (March 30): This “is about very specific objectives. The President laid them out on the first night of the operation… Here they are — you should write them down. Number one, the destruction of their air force. Number two, the destruction of their navy. Number three, the severe diminishing of their missile launching capability. And number four, the destruction of their factories so they can’t make more missiles and more drones to threaten us in the future. All of this so that they can never hide behind it to acquire a nuclear weapon. That was our objective from the beginning; that remains our objective now.”

Tonight, @POTUS will address the nation on Operation Epic Fury. From day one, the objectives have been clear: obliterate Iran’s missiles and production, annihilate its navy, sever its support for terrorist proxies, and ensure it never acquires a nuclear weapon. 🧵

@FranceintheUK @jnbarrot @francediplo_EN @franceenisrael @AmbaFranceLiban @FranceenIran @franceintheus @FranceEnRussie ...Hezbollah is not merely an “ally” of Tehran; it is the embodiment of this hybrid strategy and the IRGC model. That is why they rejected the PNG call.

@FranceintheUK @jnbarrot @francediplo_EN @franceenisrael @AmbaFranceLiban @FranceenIran @franceintheus @FranceEnRussie Dear @jnbarrot, you cannot negotiate a stable equilibrium with a system that thrives on disequilibrium. I can understand the part of bearing internal cost for France - a natural way. Though, I highly doubt that "disarming" will happen peacefully. Lebanon is a laboratory and...

"Since the beginning of this conflict, France has probably been the country in the world that has stood most firmly by Lebanon and the Lebanese people. (…) We’d like Israel to refrain from any continuation of its ground operations," says @jnbarrot. ➡️ uk.diplomatie.gouv.fr/en/wed-israel-…

@ecfr This is basically the IRGC idea of a "smart" war of attrition that stretches across time, economy, and politics together. You are complementing it from a European perspective.

As Trump digs his heels into a war with Iran, he faces a growing list of domestic pressures. Europeans cannot control or even directly affect American domestic politics, but understanding the strains Trump is under can give them an opening to stop the war by pressing on these points to push Washington towards a ceasefire.

@mansouri9000011 I don't believe they will recognize it, thus the price in the future will be much higher, not confined to the surrounding of the Hormuz Strait, but across the MENA and the surroundings.

@mansouri9000011 The question is whether the world and regional actors in particular are willing to recognize the nature of the threat they are confronting. The IRGC is the state-ification of this ideological project.

🖊️العالم بين خيارين .. في منطق التاريخ، لا تعيش الأنظمة التي تعادي النواميس الطبيعية للقوة طويلاً . النظام الإيراني اليوم يقف على حافة التناقض بين مشروع أيديولوجي مغلق ومنطق عالم منفتح على توازن المصالح . لقد استثمر الفوضى كتكتيك ، وابتزّ حركة الاقتصاد العالمي عبر سياسة حافة النار في الممرات البحرية ، لكنه يواجه الآن لحظة الحقيقة : لحظة اصطدام الأيديولوجيا بالفيزياء الجيوسياسية . فالعالم بدأ يدرك أن بقاء هذا النظام ليس مجرد مشكلة إقليمية ، بل اختلال هيكلي في منظومة الأمن الدولي . فهو قرصان بعمامة يهدد خطوط الطاقة ، ويزرع الميليشيات كألغام سياسية في جسد المنطقة ، ويحاول إعادة تعريف معنى السيادة من خلال الوكلاء . المسألة لا تحتمل “الـ احتواءً” ولا “ردعاً محدوداً”، بل إعادة ضبط جذري للمعادلة . إن منطق القوة الحديثة لا يقبل أن يُمسك طرف متآكل بمفاصل الاقتصاد العالمي . وبالتالي، سيكون إسقاط أدوات التهديد الإيراني ، اقتصادياً ، وأمنياً، وعقائدياً ، شرطًا لتوازن المرحلة القادمة . إن تحرير سفينة الاقتصاد العالمي من القرصان المعمم ليس حرباً من أجل الهيمنة ، بل من أجل استعادة النظام الطبيعي للأمن العالمي ، حيث لا تُبتزّ طرق الملاحة باسم المذهب ، ولا يُحتجز المستقبل كرهينة في مضيق .. العالم بين خيارين إما أغراق القرصان المعمم في المضيق ، أو إغراق سفينة أقتصاد العالم بين فكي هرمز .
