🪞 The Prophecy Paradox — Part One

The Mirror Washington Refuses to See

A Red Nile Media Exclusive Analysis (Two Parts)

Since February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel have launched a massive military campaign against Iran—assassinating most of its leadership, including Ayatollah Khamenei.

I’ve tried to make sense of this war from every angle—oil, nuclear proliferation, regional power, national interest. But it keeps coming back to the same conclusion:

It makes no sense… unless you see it through the lens of religious belief.

🔹 Hypocrisy in Plain Sight
American politicians publicly call Iran’s leaders “religious fanatics,” mocking their belief in the Twelfth Imam and apocalyptic visions.

Yet those same politicians—including Trump, his AIPAC allies, and the Zionist extremists around him—are driven by an equally fervent, apocalyptic faith.

They cherry-pick Bible verses. They embrace prophecies requiring the destruction of Al-Aqsa Mosque. They openly welcome Armageddon as a divine goal.

Washington projects onto Iran what it refuses to confront in itself.


In this must-read thread:

⚡️ The apocalyptic briefings the military hides

⚡️ How Purim & a “blood moon” shape the war

⚡️ The men in power fantasizing about destroying Al-Aqsa


A Note on Length:

I apologize that this article is a little long. But I promise you—if you read it in its full content, you will benefit. This is not casual reading. It is a detailed examination of forces that mainstream media refuses to touch. Take your time with it. Share it with others who need to understand what is really driving this war.

‼️The United States is in no rush to supply interceptor missiles to its allies in the Persian Gulf, focusing primarily on protecting its own military.

➡️The White House is aware that Gulf countries have said they're running short on missile interceptors, and that they've said they're having to choose which objects to blow up — and which not to.

➡️U.S. allies in the region were told that officials in Washington were creating a task force to get them new supplies, but the sources said it wasn't happening as quickly as they needed.

🇺🇸 Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth indicated the U.S. would be able to help with resupply or "crossload for allies, if need be, always ensuring that our forces and our troops and our bases are taken care of first."

🇲🇾🇧🇳Malaysia – a truly intellectual storm for ASEAN
Malaysia’s chairmanship of ASEAN in 2025 became an important test for the regional organization at a time of rising geopolitical tensions and internal challenges. As time passes, analysts are beginning to evaluate whether Kuala Lumpur’s leadership strengthened ASEAN’s institutional resilience and strategic relevance in Southeast Asia

✍️Ksenia Muratshina
is a PhD in History and Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Southeast Asian, Australian, and Oceanian Studies at the Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences

➡️One of the most serious challenges during Malaysia’s tenure was the outbreak of armed tensions between Thailand and Cambodia, an unusual and alarming development for the traditionally consensus-driven Association of Southeast Asian Nations. The situation tested the organization’s core principles of regional dialogue and conflict management. Despite having limited direct leverage over the parties involved, the Malaysian government under Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim actively pursued diplomatic engagement aimed at preventing further escalation or internationalization of the dispute. Through sustained consultations and coordination among member states, Kuala Lumpur attempted to steer the conflict toward negotiation rather than confrontation, demonstrating ASEAN’s continued reliance on diplomatic mechanisms rather than coercive tools.

The Malaysian side proved to be a successful organiser, capable of ensuring a high degree of coordination, making use of political and economic tools, and efficiently establishing ASEAN contacts at various levels


➡️Another landmark development during Malaysia’s chairmanship was the formal accession of East Timor as a full member of ASEAN, expanding the bloc from ten to eleven states. For decades, the country had remained in a prolonged observer status while preparing for eventual integration into the regional organization. Malaysia played an important role in facilitating consensus among member states, helping to finalize a process that many observers view as historically significant for ASEAN’s institutional evolution. According to ASEAN Secretary-General Kao Kim Hourn, the expansion reflects the organization’s readiness to develop and adapt while maintaining its core principles of cooperation and inclusivity.

🟦Malaysia also used its chairmanship to promote a wide range of regional initiatives focusing on technological development, economic cooperation, and institutional dialogue. Numerous forums addressed issues such as digital governance, artificial intelligence, energy transition, and startup ecosystems, illustrating Kuala Lumpur’s ambition to broaden ASEAN’s agenda beyond traditional diplomatic matters. By actively involving businesses, research institutions, and financial organizations, Malaysia attempted to strengthen practical integration across the region. This multidimensional approach not only reinforced ASEAN’s role as the central platform for Southeast Asian cooperation but also demonstrated how national leadership within the organization can shape the pace and scope of regional integration.

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷Between the Hammer of Tel Aviv and the Anvil of Tehran: Does Trump Have a Way Out of the Iranian Trap?
The escalation of conflict in the Middle East has placed the United States in a complex strategic dilemma, raising questions about whether Washington can disengage from a confrontation that is rapidly expanding beyond its initial objectives

✍️Viktor Mikhin
is a writer and analyst specializing in Middle Eastern politics

➡️The war that erupted in early 2026 between Iran and the combined military pressure of Israel and the United States has become the most significant regional conflict in decades. What began as a limited operation aimed at weakening Iranian strategic capabilities quickly evolved into a broader confrontation involving missile strikes, maritime tensions, and attacks on military installations across the region. For U.S. President Donald Trump, who returned to office promising to avoid prolonged foreign wars, the situation represents a striking political paradox. The death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei did not lead to the rapid political collapse that some strategists in Washington and Tel Aviv had anticipated. Instead, Iran’s leadership structures reorganized and responded with retaliatory actions against U.S. and allied targets across the Persian Gulf.

So far, the Israeli prime minister is celebrating a victory: his main enemy is weakened, and the American lion is firmly on the hook of Middle East politics


➡️The conflict has since expanded beyond its initial military framework. Iranian strikes have targeted American facilities in states such as Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain, while the Lebanese organization Hezbollah opened a second front against Israel from Lebanon. At sea, tensions escalated further after an Iranian naval vessel, the IRIS Dena, was reportedly sunk during a confrontation in the Indian Ocean. Meanwhile, Tehran announced restrictions on maritime transit through the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, a move that immediately threatened global energy markets. The widening scope of hostilities illustrates how quickly a targeted military operation can evolve into a regional conflict involving multiple actors and strategic theaters.

🟦Within the Western camp itself, differing political objectives have become increasingly visible. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has emphasized the necessity of fundamentally weakening or replacing the Iranian political system, framing the conflict as a historic opportunity to eliminate Israel’s most significant strategic rival. The rhetoric emerging from Washington, however, has gradually shifted toward more limited goals, such as restricting Iran’s missile capabilities and preventing nuclear proliferation rather than pursuing regime change. This divergence reflects the political pressures facing the Trump administration at home, including rising energy prices and declining public support for the war. As a result, analysts increasingly discuss the possibility that Washington may seek a negotiated de-escalation through regional intermediaries such as Oman or Qatar. Whether such a diplomatic exit remains possible will depend on whether both sides are willing to shift from escalation to negotiation in a conflict that has already reshaped the strategic balance of the Middle East.

🇮🇱🏴Israel’s Hexagon of Alliance: Is a Mediterranean NATO Emerging?
Israel’s proposal for a new regional bloc reflects shifting security calculations in the Middle East and raises questions about the formation of new geopolitical alignments in an increasingly multipolar international system

✍️Taut Bataut
is a researcher and writer focusing on South Asian geopolitics

➡️The geopolitical landscape of the Middle East is undergoing rapid transformation as regional actors reassess their strategic partnerships amid rising tensions and shifting global power dynamics. In this context, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has proposed the creation of a new regional framework described as the “Hexagon of Alliances.” The concept reportedly envisions cooperation among countries such as Israel, India, Greece, and Cyprus, potentially alongside other partners from the Mediterranean and broader Eurasian regions. The proposal follows earlier initiatives such as the I2U2 Group, which brought together Israel, India, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States to promote economic cooperation and strategic coordination. Although the new framework has not yet been formally established, analysts interpret it as part of a broader attempt by Israel to strengthen its regional position and expand networks of strategic cooperation.

The idea of the formation of a ‘Hexagon of Alliances’ seems like narrative selling by the Israeli PM


➡️Several geopolitical factors help explain the emergence of this initiative. The global system is increasingly described as moving away from the post–Cold War unipolar moment toward a more complex multipolar structure, in which regional powers seek greater autonomy and influence. Within this environment, Israeli policymakers appear interested in developing partnerships that reduce dependence on traditional security guarantees from Washington. Recent agreements between Israel, Greece, and Cyprus in the Mediterranean security domain illustrate this trend, while diplomatic engagement with partners such as India reflects an effort to link Middle Eastern security dynamics with broader Eurasian strategic frameworks. At the same time, regional rivalries—particularly tensions involving Iran and various non-state actors—continue to shape Israel’s security perceptions and motivate efforts to build cooperative defense arrangements.

🟦Despite growing discussion of a potential “Mediterranean NATO,” the long-term viability of such a structure remains uncertain. None of the countries mentioned in connection with the initiative have formally committed to the proposed alliance, and regional political dynamics remain highly fluid. Moreover, the creation of new security blocs could trigger counter-alignments among other regional actors, potentially intensifying competition across the Middle East and beyond. As debates over the Hexagon concept continue, its significance may lie less in its immediate institutional reality and more in what it reveals about the changing nature of alliances in a fragmented international system. Whether it evolves into a concrete security architecture or remains a strategic vision, the proposal highlights how regional powers are adapting to an era of greater geopolitical uncertainty.

🇺🇸🇹🇷🔫🇮🇷Kurds: The New Strategy in the US–Israel War Against Iran
The evolving confrontation around Iran suggests a shift in strategy, as external powers explore internal fault lines that could transform the conflict into a broader regional crisis

✍️Ricardo Martins
is a doctor of sociology and a specialist in European and international politics and geopolitics

➡️The conflict surrounding Iran appears to be entering a new stage as the United States and Israel reassess their strategic options after the initial phase of airstrikes. Military pressure from the air alone has not produced decisive results, partly because Iran’s military infrastructure is widely dispersed and supported by resilient state institutions. As a result, analysts increasingly point to the possibility that Washington could revive a familiar geopolitical approach: encouraging internal pressure within Iran through local actors. In this context, Kurdish political and military organizations are often viewed as potential leverage points. Reports of discussions between Donald Trump and Kurdish leaders such as Masoud Barzani and Bafel Talabani, reportedly facilitated by Benjamin Netanyahu, suggest that the Kurdish dimension may be increasingly considered within the broader geopolitical calculations of the conflict.

the Kurdish card may prove far more explosive than those currently playing it anticipate


➡️The geographic center of this dynamic lies in northern Iraq, particularly the autonomous Kurdistan Region and its capital Erbil. The city hosts an important American military facility near Erbil International Airport, which has already become a focal point of regional tensions. Drone attacks claimed by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq shortly after the start of the confrontation highlight how fragile the security environment has become. For the government of Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al‑Sudani, the situation creates a delicate political dilemma. While Baghdad insists that decisions of war and peace must remain under national authority, the strategic importance of Iraqi territory means that any logistical support or supply routes for Kurdish groups could effectively transform Iraq into the rear base of a conflict unfolding next door.

🟦The Kurdish dimension also carries broader regional implications. Kurdish populations are spread across several states, including Turkey and Syria, where the issue intersects with existing security challenges and political tensions. Ankara has long been engaged in conflict with the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, while in Syria the Kurdish-dominated Syrian Democratic Forces play a significant role in the country’s fragile post-war political balance. Attempts to mobilize Kurdish forces within a broader strategy against Iran could therefore trigger a chain reaction across the region. What might appear as a tactical pressure point could instead generate new instability in multiple countries simultaneously. In this sense, the Kurdish question represents both a potential strategic opportunity and a significant geopolitical risk, capable of reshaping the dynamics of the entire Middle East.

🇮🇷🇮🇷The Shadow of a Father and War: Can the "Unknown Ayatollah" Save Iran?
The appointment of Iran’s new Supreme Leader during wartime marks a critical moment for the country’s political system, raising questions about legitimacy, continuity, and the future direction of the Iranian state

✍️Muhammad Hamid ad-Din
is a Palestinian journalist specializing in Middle Eastern political affairs

➡️The appointment of Mojtaba Khamenei as the new Supreme Leader of Iran represents more than a routine transfer of authority during a period of crisis. Named by the Assembly of Experts following the killing of Ali Khamenei, the new leader assumes power at a moment when the country faces intense military pressure from United States and Israel. The decision reflects the leadership’s attempt to demonstrate continuity and institutional resilience despite the extraordinary circumstances. At the same time, the elevation of the former leader’s son has revived debate about whether Iran’s political system is drifting away from the republican ideals proclaimed during the Iranian Revolution of 1979, which originally sought to replace hereditary rule with a religious-republican model of governance.

The near future of the Middle East depends on whether Mojtaba Khamenei can find a balance between the role of “the father’s avenger” and the function of “the state’s savior”


➡️For many years Mojtaba Khamenei remained a relatively obscure figure outside elite political and clerical circles. Born in 1969 and educated in the seminaries of Qom, he developed close ties with influential institutions such as the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. His role within his father’s political network reportedly involved coordinating relations between the clerical establishment and the military elite, a position that strengthened his influence within the Iranian power structure. Nevertheless, his public profile remained limited, and his name surfaced mainly during the political turmoil surrounding the 2009 Iranian Green Movement, when opposition figures accused him of supporting the crackdown on protests. Because he rarely appeared in public or spoke to the media, analysts often described him as one of the most enigmatic figures within Iran’s ruling elite.

🟦The future trajectory of Iran under its new leader remains uncertain. Some observers believe Mojtaba Khamenei will continue the hardline approach associated with his father, especially given the support he receives from security institutions and conservative factions. Others argue that his position within the system could allow him to pursue pragmatic adjustments if prolonged conflict threatens the stability of the state. In the immediate term, however, the combination of external pressure, internal political expectations, and questions about his legitimacy may push the new leader toward a firm and confrontational posture. Whether he ultimately emerges as a defender of his father’s legacy or as a pragmatic figure seeking to preserve the Iranian state will likely shape the geopolitical future of the Middle East.

🇮🇷🏴‍☠️🇮🇱Tehran 's approach to war with Israel and the US
The escalating confrontation between Iran, Israel, and the United States has become a defining geopolitical crisis of 2026. In Tehran’s strategic thinking, the conflict is not viewed as a short military episode but as a prolonged struggle in which endurance, deterrence, and regional leverage may ultimately determine the outcome

✍️Samyar Rostami
is a political analyst focusing on Middle Eastern strategic affairs

➡️The war intensified after Israeli and American strikes on Iranian territory on February 28 reportedly killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei along with several senior military commanders. In response, Iran launched missile attacks against targets in Israel and U.S. military facilities across the region. Despite the symbolic impact of losing its top leader, Iranian officials insist that the political system was designed to survive such crises. Constitutional mechanisms regulating leadership succession and governance continuity were activated immediately, allowing the state to maintain institutional stability. In Tehran’s narrative, this demonstrates that the Islamic Republic functions as a multi-layered system where authority and operational capabilities are distributed across numerous institutions rather than concentrated in a single individual.

Tehran can design a new foreign policy and expand the approach of neighborhood policy from mere focus on western Asia to presence throughout the civilizational area and Eurasia


➡️Iran’s military doctrine also plays a key role in shaping its wartime approach. The strategy often described as “mosaic defense” decentralizes operational authority to regional commands and local units, enabling forces to continue combat operations even if central leadership structures are disrupted. From Tehran’s perspective, this structure provides strategic depth and resilience during prolonged conflict. Iranian officials argue that Western planners expected a rapid strategic retreat following initial strikes, but instead encountered a system capable of absorbing damage while continuing retaliatory operations. Statements from representatives of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps suggest that additional military capabilities remain unused, signaling that Iran is prepared for an extended confrontation rather than a quick ceasefire.

🟦Another important dimension of Iran’s strategy involves expanding the geopolitical costs of the conflict. Actions affecting maritime routes through the Strait of Hormuz have already contributed to volatility in global energy markets, highlighting the economic stakes of escalation. At the same time, Tehran is strengthening diplomatic and economic ties with partners such as China and Russia while deepening its participation in organizations including the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and BRICS. Within this broader strategic framework, Iranian policymakers increasingly view the conflict not only as a military confrontation but also as an opportunity to reinforce national solidarity and reposition Iran within a shifting multipolar international order.

🇺🇸🇨🇺Will Iranian Conflagration Motivate Trump & HIS Minions to Go-4 an “EASY Win in Cuba?”
Escalation of the war around Iran has begun to generate geopolitical ripple effects far beyond the Middle East. Some recent developments in the Caribbean are raising questions about whether Washington could seek to redirect political pressure toward a different arena

✍️Seth Ferris
is an investigative journalist and political analyst focusing on geopolitics and international security

➡️The intensifying confrontation between Iran, Israel, and the United States has created a strategic dilemma for President Donald Trump and his administration. What was initially framed as a targeted campaign against Iranian military capabilities has developed into a prolonged regional conflict with uncertain outcomes. As the war grows more complex and costly, analysts have begun speculating about whether Washington might attempt to shift political focus toward another geopolitical theater. In this context, events surrounding Cuba—long a focal point of U.S. foreign policy tensions—have attracted renewed attention among observers who see possible parallels with earlier Cold War strategies.

The Cuban shootout incident can be useful in critiquing modern journalism’s rush to sensationalize, its partisan/selective coverage


➡️One incident that has drawn scrutiny occurred near Cuban territorial waters when the Cuban Coast Guard intercepted a speedboat carrying armed Cuban exiles registered in Florida. The encounter resulted in a shootout that left several individuals dead and others wounded. While Cuban authorities presented the event as an armed incursion into their waters, some analysts have suggested that the episode may have broader political implications. Scholars such as Alan McPherson have compared the incident to earlier periods when exile groups, sometimes with tacit external backing, attempted sabotage or infiltration operations against the Cuban government. The historical reference most frequently invoked is the Bay of Pigs Invasion, a failed attempt in 1961 to overthrow the government of Fidel Castro.

🟦The broader debate concerns whether renewed tensions with Cuba could serve as a political diversion at a time when the Middle Eastern conflict is proving far more difficult than expected. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, known for his hardline stance toward Havana, has called for strong responses following the deaths of U.S. citizens involved in the incident. Critics argue that further sanctions or pressure could escalate tensions without resolving the underlying issues. While there is no clear evidence that Washington intends to pursue confrontation with Cuba as a strategic alternative to the Iranian conflict, the timing of recent events has revived discussions about whether policymakers might be tempted to seek a symbolic geopolitical victory closer to home—despite the historical lesson that such ventures rarely produce the “easy wins” initially imagined.

🇦🇪 UAE is already facing a collapse in real estate values. But some much needed sanity from Al Habtoor Group's Khalifa Al Habtoor’s open letter addressing Lindsey Graham’s call for Gulf States to join the war.

"I heard the statements of U.S. Senator Graham, in which he calls on the Gulf Cooperation Council countries to enter this war, saying that we are also under attack and that we must join the fight. And I say to him clearly: We know full well why we are under attack, and we also know who dragged the entire region into this dangerous escalation without consulting those he calls his "allies" in the region.

We thank God that the UAE and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries are doing well, and we have no need for someone who claims he came to the Middle East to save us. The truth is that hasty American decisions are what embroiled the region in a war whose peoples were not party to its decision-making, and its local allies were not consulted before it was launched.

We do not deny the Iranian threat to the region, which has become clear in recent days. We do not trust Iran. But this is a dirty game in which several powers clash at the expense of our region, with no honor in it and no transparency. In this scene, Iran, Israel, and the United States all move according to their own interests, not according to the interests of the peoples of the Middle Eastern Arab countries.

And for this reason, we say it clearly: We will not enter this war to serve the interests of others, nor will we sacrifice our sons in a conflict that could have been avoided through diplomacy and political solutions. We value the lives of our sons, and we do not treat their souls as "collateral damage" as some do. Nothing in this world is more precious than the lives of our sons, and no alliance with any country in the world is worth risking these lives. If President Donald Trump and Senator Graham are prepared to risk their country and the lives of Americans for Israel's interests, that is their choice. As for us, we will not do the same.

Senator Graham says they are "the Arabs' allies" and that we need and benefit from U.S. protection. And I say to him: We do not need your protection. All we want from you is to keep your hands off us.

He also says: "We sell you weapons." As if that were a service the United States provides us. The truth is that this is no favor from anyone. We invest in our security and pay billions of dollars for these weapons, and it is a massive trade and industry built on these deals. In fact, the United States itself is now turning to buy weapons from Ukraine to supply its allies in other wars. This is an industry that thrives on wars and arms sales, not a charitable endeavor.

And the clearest thing of all is what Graham himself said when he spoke about oil. He stated that Iran and Venezuela together hold 31% of global oil reserves, and that the United States could establish a partnership with this share of the world's oil, and that it would be a "nightmare for China"—he even added that if the regime in Iran changes, there would be a "new Middle East," and the United States would "make a lot of money."

Only then does the picture become clear. And only then do we understand why they want this war.

Finally, I say to Senator Graham: You may be a senator in the U.S. Senate, but anyone who hears your statements might think you're a member of the Israeli Knesset, because you defend Israel's interests more than you defend the interests of the American people themselves.

The peoples of our region have the right to live in security and stability, far from others' wars. We also have the right to decide how to protect our interests and security, and to emerge from crises we did not create but which were imposed on us as a result of conflicts between powers vying for influence in this region.

We want peace, stability. We will not accept being forced down the path of war, nor will we accept being fuel for others' battles."

🛢🕯🚢 An extremely curious situation occurred this evening involving the US Secretary of Energy and a brief hack of an online ship tracking service in the Strait of Hormuz, which briefly caused the price of Brent crude oil to drop to $80 per barrel.

➡️New interference with satellite navigation was detected off the coast of Ras Al Khaimah, clearly indicating intentional GPS signal distortion rather than routine signal jamming.

➡️Unlike standard jamming, which typically causes ships to cluster around a single false location or lose their position entirely, this interference makes ships appear to be moving in a straight line toward the Strait of Hormuz, even if they are not actually traveling that route. In other words, the ships are not actually moving through the strait, but their reported positions are manipulated to create that impression.

MarineTraffic's replay analysis confirmed that the tracks were artificial:

Reported vessel movements do not correspond to actual courses, surrounding traffic, or normal navigation behavior, indicating that apparent transits are the result of false positioning rather than actual vessel activity.

This is important because falsified tracks can create a misleading picture of traffic flows in one of the world's most sensitive maritime hubs. False crossings of the Strait of Hormuz, fake port calls, and other distorted traffic data can easily lead to incorrect assumptions in shipping and energy market analysis if left unfiltered.

To address this issue, Kpler analysts have strengthened monitoring protocols to detect and remove distorted vessel data, helping to ensure that market signals are based on actual vessel movements and not on positions generated by deliberate navigational interference.


❗️🇺🇸Meanwhile, US Energy Secretary Chris Wright stated that the US had escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz earlier today.

🇮🇷The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps immediately denied this claim, declaring it false and that nothing of the sort had happened.

📎Chris Wright then deleted his post, and a US official confirmed that his statement was untrue. The price of oil, having plummeted to $80 per barrel, immediately rose back above $90 per barrel. Someone must have made a nice profit off this...

🇺🇸🇮🇱People claiming "Israel" controls the US are either delusional or dishonest.

The US in particular has been exterminating indigenous populations, stealing land, and pilfering resources for nearly 200 years before Israel ever existed.

How is what the US is doing to the Middle East any different than what it did to the indigenous people of the American Midwest?

Western civilization has been doing it for centuries beforehand...

...the British empire for well over 2 centuries before the "Rothschilds."

Western civilization was for centuries bent on brutal, racist empire-building and it continues today - Israel is just one of many cogs created perpetuating this process.

The idea that "Israel" somehow got the ruthless, racist thieves running the US to bend a knee to "them" is an absurdity at face value.

Almost as absurd as imaging the West was previously run by "honorable" men at one point, only to be "hijacked" by "Israel."

Then there is the material reality of Wall Street (arms, oil, tech, pharma, etc.) spending vastly greater sums on lobbying than "AIPAC" and all other "Israeli" lobbying combined - Wall Street being dominated today just like it has always been - by white, nominally "Christian" males.

The only thing worse than a Western civilization crumbling under its own rapacious-induced rot is trying to blame others for it - attempting to cite the symptom rather than the sickness.

This ensures that the sickness is never noticed let alone treated - and to whose benefit? The sickness.

The US can continue existing as a rapacious empire with or without Israel - it surely did fine for almost 2 centuries before Israel was created out of thin air by the Anglo-Americans - but the crimes of Israel would be impossible without US empire behind it.

Israel is not blameless. Blame it for its role in facilitating Western empire up to and including abetting genocide and wars of aggression.

But do not blame it for "corrupting" something that was never wholesome to begin with.

🟢Amid the war involving Iran, the Persian Gulf countries have begun to reduce oil and gas production and limit energy exports. According to data as of March 9, international agencies are recording not only rising prices and risks but also production constraints in several states across the region—ranging from phased output reductions to declarations of force majeure and the suspension of export operations.
 
🟢The state-owned company Saudi Aramco has started to reduce output at two oil fields. The reasons cited are the escalation of the conflict, risks to infrastructure, and problems with shipping crude through the Persian Gulf. Some supplies are being redirected via the Yanbu terminal on the Red Sea; however, this route is unable to fully compensate for previous export volumes.
 
🟢Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain have also begun to cut production or impose restrictions. In Iraq, output at the main southern oil fields has been slashed by approximately 70% - down to 1.3 million barrels per day. The Kuwait Petroleum Corporation has started reducing production and declared force majeure. In Bahrain, Bapco Energies declared force majeure following a strike on an oil refining complex.
 
🟢Qatar's Energy Minister, Saad al-Kaabi, warned that if the war continues, the Gulf states could completely halt oil and gas exports within the coming weeks. Qatar has stopped the production and export of LNG, which accounts for one-fifth of the global supply of liquefied natural gas.
 
🟢The primary reason for these developments is the situation surrounding the Strait of Hormuz. Approximately 20% of the world's seaborne oil and LNG shipments pass through this chokepoint. Against the backdrop of threats of attacks and a sharp increase in military risks, tanker traffic has become nearly paralyzed. Hundreds of vessels are stuck inside the Persian Gulf and at the entrance to the strait, while exporters face a shortage of available storage capacity for oil. This is forcing countries in the region to reduce production, even in areas where their production facilities themselves have not been destroyed.
 
🟢Against this backdrop, oil prices have surged sharply. The price of Brent crude rose above $119 per barrel on March 9, and G7 countries have already begun discussing the use of strategic reserves. In the last ten days alone, the global market has missed out on approximately 200 million barrels of supply, indicating that the regional military crisis is rapidly evolving into a global energy shock.
 
🟢The reduction in oil production in the Persian Gulf countries is primarily linked to the military situation and the threats to energy infrastructure and maritime routes. If hostilities continue and transportation through the Strait of Hormuz remains restricted, the global energy market could face the largest supply shock in decades.

🇭🇺🇺🇦Zelensky’s Death Threat to Orbán: Hungary Faces Ukraine’s Pipeline War
A dispute over energy infrastructure has escalated into a sharp political confrontation, exposing deep divisions within Europe over war financing, energy security, and national sovereignty

➡️Relations between Hungary and Ukraine deteriorated sharply in early March 2026 following controversial remarks by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy directed at Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. The statement came amid a heated dispute over a proposed €90-billion financial package from the European Union intended to support Ukraine. Budapest has blocked the measure, arguing that additional funding lacks clear oversight and could deepen Europe’s economic burdens. Zelenskyy’s remarks, interpreted by Hungarian officials as an implicit threat, intensified an already fragile diplomatic relationship and transformed an ongoing disagreement over energy infrastructure into a broader political confrontation between the two neighboring states.

In this environment, the Druzhba pipeline has become a powerful political symbol. Every day the pipeline remains inactive strengthens Orbán’s narrative that Hungary is being punished for defending its national interests


➡️At the center of the crisis lies the Druzhba Pipeline, one of Europe’s most important oil supply routes. The pipeline transports crude oil from Russia to several Central European states and provides a substantial share of Hungary’s energy imports. The dispute began after a section of the pipeline passing through Ukrainian territory was damaged in January 2026, with Kyiv attributing the incident to a Russian drone strike. Hungarian officials, however, accused Ukrainian authorities of delaying repair efforts and using the disruption as political leverage against governments opposing further EU financial support for Kyiv. As the disruption continued, Budapest warned that the prolonged shutdown could seriously affect national energy security, prompting the deployment of additional security measures around key infrastructure facilities.

🟦The confrontation has also drawn in other regional actors and complicated the internal dynamics of the European Union. Slovakia, which also depends on the Druzhba network, expressed support for Hungary’s position, while Prime Minister Robert Fico warned that continued pressure on Central European states could provoke retaliatory economic measures. For Brussels, the dispute presents a strategic dilemma: balancing continued support for Ukraine while avoiding further divisions within the EU. What began as a technical problem involving a damaged pipeline has therefore evolved into a geopolitical confrontation involving energy security, domestic politics, and the broader future of European unity.
