Elektriği devlet üretiyor, dağıtım altyapısı devletin, bu şirketler sadece tahsilat yapıyor neredeyse ama ödenen her 4 liranın 3'ü bunların cebine gidiyor... Soygun mu evet, AKP'nin icraat diye pazarladığı her başlık gibi soygun... Özelleştirme denilen soygun sürecinin en vahşi hali...

JUST IN: Prime Minister Netanyahu just issued his first statement since the ceasefire. Three sentences that rearrange every assumption about what was agreed. First: Israel supports President Trump’s decision to suspend strikes against Iran for two weeks. Second: Israel supports the US effort to ensure that Iran no longer poses a nuclear, missile, and terror threat. Third: the two-week ceasefire does not include Lebanon. Pakistan’s Prime Minister Sharif, who brokered the deal, announced twelve hours earlier that both sides agreed to an immediate ceasefire everywhere, including Lebanon and elsewhere. Trump made no mention of Lebanon in his statement. The two mediating parties to the same agreement are now broadcasting contradictory terms to the world. In Lebanon, displaced families who heard Sharif’s announcement began packing their belongings and moving south, believing the war over their homes had stopped. Lebanon’s Crisis Management Unit immediately urged them not to travel. The IDF has not paused. It continued striking Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon throughout the night. Over 1,500 people have been killed and more than one million displaced in Israeli operations since March 2. The Lebanon exclusion is not a footnote. It is the structural fault line in the entire agreement. Iran’s 10-point counter-proposal explicitly demands cessation of war on all fronts, including against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Netanyahu’s statement explicitly excludes Lebanon. These positions are not separated by a negotiating gap. They are separated by a logical contradiction. Iran signed a ceasefire that its chief ally says includes Lebanon. Israel signed the same ceasefire and says it does not. Both are correct about what they agreed to, because they agreed to different things. This is possible because the ceasefire was brokered through Pakistan as intermediary, not through direct US-Iran-Israel trilateral negotiation. Each party received the framework through a different channel and interpreted it through different strategic needs. Iran needed Lebanon included to protect Hezbollah. Israel needed Lebanon excluded to continue degrading Hezbollah. Pakistan needed both to say yes, so the framework was drafted with sufficient ambiguity that both could. The ambiguity is not a bug. It is how the deal got done. And it is why the deal will be tested within days. Trump told AFP today that Iran’s uranium will be “perfectly taken care of” and declared a “total and complete victory.” Netanyahu’s statement echoes this: the US told Israel it is committed to achieving shared goals in upcoming negotiations. The public alignment between Washington and Jerusalem is complete on the Iran track. The divergence is on Lebanon, and the divergence is structural because Iran’s entire proxy architecture runs through Lebanon, and any deal that excludes Lebanon leaves the proxy architecture intact. The molecule crisis absorbs this without modification. The crackers are still rubble regardless of what Lebanon’s status is. The enrichment continues regardless. The yuan toll booth operates regardless. But the ceasefire’s durability depends entirely on whether the Lebanon contradiction can survive contact with reality. If Hezbollah escalates under the belief it is covered by the ceasefire, and Israel responds under the belief it is not, the entire pause collapses from a flank that was never agreed upon. One ceasefire. Two interpretations. A million displaced people caught between them. Full analysis on Substack. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

Orban is the first politician in history to get election interference help from both CIA and SVR. Mindblowing.

@ConflictTR “teknik sorun”

🔴 İngiliz gemisi HMS Dragon, geminin su sistemlerinde küçük bir teknik sorun nedeniyle limana yanaşacak.

Bu resmini gördüğünüz, Çetinkaya mağazasını yakmış, 1’i bebek 12 kişiyi öldürmüş, katil terörist Cetin Arkaş. Nerdeyse tüm DEM milletvekilleri bu adamın ağır hasta olduğun, serbest kalması halinde bile hayatını ancak hastanede sürdürebileceğini açıklamışlardı. İmralı’da bebek katili APO’nun yanındayken, terörsüz Türkiye süreci ile serbest kaldı. O gün bu gün il il gezip terör örgütü ve üyelerini öven, Devlete parmak sallayan konferanslar düzenliyor.

Egypt (lhs) and Turkey (rhs) peg to the Dollar. In this shock, they're behaving differently. Egypt allowed the Pound to fall. Turkey is sticking with a peg at the cost of huge intervention, hoping that the shock will be short. A strategy based on hope... robinjbrooks.substack.com/p/egypt-gets-i…

In 1974, Henry Kissinger brokered a deal with Saudi Arabia: price your oil in dollars, recycle the surplus into US Treasuries, and America guarantees your security. The arrangement was never a formal treaty. It was a handshake backed by aircraft carriers. For fifty years, every barrel of oil sold anywhere on earth created demand for the dollar that financed America’s debt. The system required two things to function: Gulf oil priced in dollars, and an American navy guaranteeing the strait through which that oil flowed. Both conditions held until February 28, 2026. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz. Not physically but operationally, by mining approaches, attacking tankers, and establishing an IRGC toll booth that vets vessels, charges in yuan or stablecoins, and escorts approved ships through the Larak corridor. Traffic collapsed 95 percent. The oil that still flows does not flow in dollars. It flows in yuan, settled through CIPS, paid to an organisation the United States designated as a terrorist group. Iran has exported over 11.7 million barrels to China since the war began, all in the currency of a country that claims neutrality. The petrodollar is not being challenged by a BRICS policy paper. It is being challenged by a toll booth. The United States holds $39 trillion in gross national debt. That debt is serviceable because foreign governments buy Treasuries. Foreign governments buy Treasuries because they accumulate dollars. They accumulate dollars because oil is priced in dollars. If oil stops being priced in dollars, the demand that finances the debt weakens. Saudi Arabia’s Treasury holdings fell to $134.8 billion in January 2026, down $14.7 billion in a single month. The Saudis let the 1974 agreement lapse in June 2024 without renewal. The recycling loop that Kissinger built is loosening at the same moment that the strait through which it operated is controlled by a hostile military collecting tolls in a rival currency. This is what the war is about. Not the nuclear programme, which was the stated justification. Not the missiles, which are the visible weapons. The war is about which currency buys the molecule that powers the global economy, and the answer to that question is being determined at a 34-kilometre chokepoint by an entity that charges admission in yuan. Every American strike on Iranian infrastructure degrades the capability to maintain the toll. Every barrel of Iranian oil sold to China in yuan during the war demonstrates the toll’s viability. The strikes and the sales are running simultaneously. The petrodollar and its replacement are being tested in the same theatre at the same time. Trump’s Tuesday deadline is the enforcement mechanism. “Power Plant Day” is not about punishing Iran for closing the strait. It is about ensuring that when the strait reopens, the oil flows in dollars and the $39 trillion remains financeable. The F-35 sales to the UAE and Saudi Arabia are not arms deals. They are petrodollar anchors, binding Gulf security to American hardware that requires American currency. The rescue proved reach. The strikes prove capability. The F-35 contracts prove commitment. And the toll booth proves that all of it might not be enough. The 1974 handshake held for fifty years. The 2026 toll booth has operated for five weeks. The question the deadline answers tonight is whether fifty years of dollar dominance or five weeks of yuan experimentation determines what comes next. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

Bir hukukçu olarak çok tehlikeli bir gelişmeye dikkat çekme gereği duyuyorum: Anayasa Mahkemesinin dün Resmî Gazete’de yayımlanan ve sessiz sedasız şekilde arada kaynayan kararı, anayasal düzen açısından kritik bir kırılmadır. Mahkeme, “eylemli içtüzük değişikliği” konusundaki en ilerici içtihatlarından birinden vazgeçmiş bulunuyor. Burada teknik ayrıntılarına girmek mümkün değil ama şunu herkes bilmelidir: Dünkü kararla birlikte, Türk anayasa hukuku tarihinde emsali görülmemiş bir denetimsizlik alanına kapı aralanmıştır. Bundan sonra TBMM'deki çoğunluk, adını “parlamento kararı” koyduğu işlemlerle — neredeyse her şeyi — yapabilir. Ve hiçbir mahkeme bu işlemlere dokunamaz. OHÂL KHK'larını adeta anayasa hükmünde kararname kılan bu sorunlu yaklaşım, şimdi olağan zamana teşmil edilmiş bulunuyor. İnanılmaz bir keyfîlik dönemindeyiz. Hukuk camiasının umursamazlığı de en az kararın kendisi kadar ürkütücü.

Bir abim ve dostum aylardır Güney Fransa’nın en kalburüstü yerleşimlerden biri olan Aix-en Provence bölgesinde ikamet ediyor. Michelin ödüllü bir pastane kruvasanı 1.60 €’dan satıyor. Yani 80 lira. İlk fotoğraf Fransa’dan. İkinci fotoğrafı da dün Bağcılar’dan attı. Kruvasanın fiyatı 180 lira! İstanbul’un en mutena semti de değil üstelik. Bizde esnaf geçinen akbabaların %1000’lik fahiş kâr hırsını hiçbir finansal gerçekçeyle açıklayamazsınız. Düpedüz fasit bir ahlaksızlık dairesinde herkesin birbirini dolandırdığı bir memleket abat olamaz!

Well, no, because what most women think is “an intellectual challenge” is just her being annoying & combative and telling me I am always wrong…

Europe has long harboured ambitions to domestically develop medium-altitude long-endurance (MALE) uninhabited aerial vehicles (UAVs). Except for Turkiye, it has so far failed to do so, despite two decades of sporadic effort. The United States remains the default provider for European states looking to acquire off-the-shelf MALE UAVs. Free to download | Read the latest IISS Strategic Dossier: go.iiss.org/4tbOwuo
