Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu admits that while there are signs “cracks” appear to be forming in the Iranian Regime, it is possible that the regime will indeed survive the ongoing Iran War.

Most retarded timeline imaginable. Boots on the ground are not capable of defending against Iran’s drones. They’re escalating this into Afghanistan 2.0 Blue wave coming because Trump and Hegseth have learned nothing from history

🔴Thoughts on the Future of Energy Markets🔴 The most severe long-term consequence of escalating trade wars, tariffs, sanctions, disruptions involving Venezuela, Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, and even moves like the Greenland interest isn't just higher prices or short-term supply shocks. It's the irreversible shift where energy becomes fully classified as a core national security issue for every major power and country. Once that mindset takes hold, global energy markets will never return to the old model of open, price-driven, largely commercial trade. Instead, capitalist economies—historically reliant on market efficiency, global supply chains, and comparative advantage—will increasingly mirror the Chinese approach: heavy state direction, strategic stockpiling, vertical integration, subsidies for domestic champions, and prioritization of self-reliance/control over pure cost minimization. The irony? They'll adopt this state-capitalist framework without China's advantages—its unmatched scale in manufacturing, technological edge in key supply chains (batteries, solar, rare earths), massive infrastructure buildout, or centralized political ability to force rapid pivots. The result: higher costs, slower innovation in some areas, fragmented markets, and reduced overall efficiency for Western-style economies, all in the name of "security." Energy stops being just another commodity; it becomes a geopolitical weapon and a domestic fortress.
