US allies in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East are increasingly becoming collateral damage in all of this. In the Middle East, critical infrastructure is being bombed, while elsewhere oil and gas prices are surging.

@Glenn_Diesen International law does rely on reciprocity, but every state tries to justify its own actions legally, and that’s exactly where the debate is.

There is something surreal about our government-appointed “experts” speaking about the threat to freedom of navigation. The U.S. attacks boats off the coast of Venezuela and imposes a blockade on both Venezuela and Cuba. NATO countries are currently engaged in a campaign of piracy and attacks on Russian ships. Iranian tankers have been hijacked for years. International law is essentially a set of agreements based on mutual constraints, where predictability depends on reciprocity. You cannot exempt yourself from the rules and then expect compliance from the other side. The West has for years acted like rogue states, and they that sow the wind shall reap the whirlwind.

🇧🇪🇪🇺🇷🇺 "So we must continue: 100% support for Ukraine, 100% pressure on Russia—but also negotiations" — Belgian PM Bart De Wever "We must have a strategy to negotiate. It cannot be the intention to continue this war for years, to sacrifice many Ukrainian lives, and then in the end negotiate anyway"

@WarMonitors You don’t start a war and then figure out the budget afterward. Rapid cost escalation usually means the initial assumptions were wrong.

The Economist: War with Iran Makes Trump Weaker and Angrier 🔹The magazine The Economist, in its new issue with a special cover, writes about Trump's blind warmongering approach, stating that the war against Iran makes the American president weaker and angrier. 🔹This magazine writes: With the disappearance of the main political forces in America, his war against Iran makes him even more dangerous.

Kallas stated that the US war with Iran violates international law and EU countries will not join it. 'We don't know what the goals of this war are. And there is also no legal basis within international law. When it comes to the use of force, there are two cases: self-defense or a mandate from the UN Security Council. At the moment, there is neither of these. Member states have no intention of joining this war.' - SK

Oh and why did you think Russia gave Belarus tactical nuclear weapons? Once again, deterrence. Clearly many still have no idea how close the world came to a major conflict over North Korea which was narrowly avoided. Hence why Pyongyang immediately got nuclear weapons after that.
The Sirius Report@thesiriusreport

Ask yourself why the US barely mentions North Korea these days?Never threatens to go to war with it or threatens to invade it? Quite simply, it has nuclear weapons. Iran was offered many things by Russia and it turned them down. Granted that's their choice. If Iran had possessed nuclear weapons itself the US and Israel would never have started this war. Precisely why as said earlier, North Korea is left alone. What is being missed by many commenting on the post below is there is a world of difference if Russia offered Article 5 protection against DIRECT US and Israeli attacks, precisely because they are nuclear powers. That changes the rules of engagement totally. What changes the entire dynamic is when two nations in a DIRECT conflict BOTH have nuclear weapons or are protected by nuclear weapons. Whilst we are at pains to state that Iran has every right to defend itself and sadly unless we state the blindingly obvious, there are going to be people who infer we are suggesting otherwise. There is something that needs to be said. It would have been better for Iran if this war never happened. Because what is largely overlooked is not only how does this war end but how will there be lasting peace? Who seriously imagines an agreement signed by the US and Israel is going to end this conflict once and for all? By telling them to be good boys and leave Iran alone. Don't be ridiculous. Rather like Russia is now finding, ending the war in Ukraine and finding a lasting settlement which will endure is extremely difficult to achieve. People seem to think that war is the answer to achieve lasting peace. It is far better to never have a war starting in the first place. The only language the US understands is a nuclear deterrent. Just ask North Korea. To those who constantly cite Ukraine as though that contradicts what is stated above you are clearly not paying attention to what has actually gone on there for the last 4 years. Ask yourself why there is a back channel open with Washington constantly doing everything to avoid escalation with Moscow. If you think the INDIRECT role the US has played in Ukraine warrants a nuclear exchange between the US and Russia you don't understand real world geopolitics nor the actual role the US has played in the Ukraine war. Never has the US remotely posed an existential threat to Russia in the last 4 years. That is critical and poorly understood. China has demonstrated that you can end an hegemonic power without firing a single shot. Nations still don't grasp that true deterrence is the only answer. Wars solve nothing. In fact they do the exact opposite. Instead of focussing on why Iran has every right to defend itself, focus on what should have been done to prevent the US and Israel attacking Iran in the first place. Hence why Iran did indeed make a big mistake as stated below.

Western critics who know little about China have claimed that supposedly it's doing nothing to help Iran, amid the US-Israeli war of aggression. That's not true. China prefers to maintain a low profile in such conflicts, to avoid provoking the US empire, but it has been quietly supporting Iran in several key ways. This article notes that China has served as a crucial lifeline for Iran, as Beijing has ignored the US' illegal unilateral sanctions. China has been buying 80-90% of Iran's oil, providing the government with hard currency and consistent revenue. China has provided banking and financial services for sanctioned Iranian institutions. According to the Wall Street Journal, China has sold "motors that have been used in Iran’s Shahed drones, chemicals for rocket fuels and electronics for an array of weapons", as well as crucial missile fuel ingredients. China has also provided Iran's military with satellite services. This article doesn't mention it specifically, but it is almost certain that Iran is using China's version of GPS, the BeiDou system, to target the US and its proxies in West Asia. China has also supported Iran diplomatically and politically. It facilitated Iran's integration into BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. Moreover, unlike Washington, which has intentionally fostered hostility and conflict between Iran and its neighbors in the Persian Gulf, Beijing was trying to facilitate peace and rapprochment -- although Trump has now blown that up. Obviously China is not going to directly intervene militarily; it doesn’t do that. It has a non-interventionist foreign policy, and has not fought a war since 1979. Also think about how crazy it is to expect Beijing to intervene militarily: that would mean China would be at war with the US; that would be World War III. China is instead working quietly behind the scenes to defend peace, sovereignty, and international law -- while the US empire is setting the world on fire.

🇺🇸 Are the goals of Israel aligned with the goals of the US? Tulsi Gabbard: "The objectives that have been laid out by the president are different from the objectives that have been laid out by the Israeli government. We can see through the operations that the Israeli government has been focused on disabling the Iranian leadership."

At the center of the controversy lies an inevitable question: the role of Israel in the conflict. For critics within the MAGA circle, Mark Rubio’s acknowledgment that the administration acted partly because Israel was preparing for an attack on Iran confirmed their worst fears: that “America First” is turning into something closer to “Allies First.” The question is not just whether Trump will pay a political price. The question is whether the “America First” movement itself can survive this moment without redefining its identity.🔚 eagleeyeexplore.com/the-iran-war-a…

The disaster in Iraq, the chaos in Libya, and the stalemate in Afghanistan convinced millions of Americans that the bipartisan foreign policy establishment in Washington had squandered American lives and wealth on objectives with little connection to the national interest. Trump understood that anger and promised a new doctrine: America First. Today, that promise faces a serious trial.⤵️

➡️The Iran War and Infighting Within the MAGA Movement: Has Trump Become What He Once Opposed? For the MAGA movement, built on national realism and skepticism toward foreign interventions, a war with Iran represents a serious test. If this foundational promise is broken, could the political consequences extend far beyond a single war in the Middle East?⤵️ eagleeyeexplore.com/the-iran-war-a…

У средишту контроверзе налази се неизбежно питање: улога Израела у сукобу. За критичаре унутар MAGA круга признање Маркa Рубиja да је администрација деловала делимично зато што се Израел припремао за напад на Иран потврдило је њихове најгоре страхове: да се „Америка на првом месту“ претвара у нешто ближе „савезници на првом месту“. Питање није само да ли ће Трамп платити политичку цену. Питање је да ли сам покрет „Америка на првом месту“ може преживети овај тренутак без редефинисања свог идентитета.🔚 eagleeyeexplore.com/sr/the-iran-wa…

Катастрофа у Ираку, хаос у Либији и пат позиција у Авганистану уверили су милионе Американаца да је двостраначки спољнополитички естаблишмент у Вашингтону расипао америчке животе и богатство за циљеве који су имали мало везе са националним интересом. Трамп је тај гнев разумео и обећавао нову доктрину: Америка на првом месту. Данас је то обећање под озбиљним искушењем.⤵️

➡️Ирански рат и обрачун унутар MAGA покрета: Да ли је Трамп постао управо оно чему се некада противио? За MAGA покрет изграђен на националном реализму и скепси према страним интервенцијама, рат са Ираном представља озбиљан тест. Ако је темељно обећање прекршено, да ли би се политичке последице могле проширити далеко изван једног рата на Блиском истоку?⤵️ eagleeyeexplore.com/sr/the-iran-wa…

Two nuclear powers, the UK and France, literally want US security guarantees for their own armies that they could potentially send to Ukraine in case of an attack on them by Russia. Why would anyone expect them to send their naval assets to the Strait of Hormuz? NATO=USA.

Hungary's Foreign Minister warns that Brussels and Kiev are continuing the energy war against Hungary and Slovakia
Péter Szijjártó@FM_Szijjarto

Good morning, Ursula von der Leyen! After nearly 50 days, the @EU_Commission has noticed that two member states are under an oil blockade by Ukraine, now promising to resolve the situation. Don’t be fooled. This is a political game. Every step was coordinated between Kyiv and Brussels. Let’s not pretend that @vonderleyen is solving a problem she was previously unaware of. We call on @ZelenskyyUa and @vonderleyen to stop this political theatre. The oil blockade against Hungary must be lifted immediately!
