The NATOstan lackeys will remain dazed and confused. So what; lackeys lack strategic depth, they just wallow in the shallow waters of irrelevancy.

Iran’s retaliatory strikes against Israel were not conducted alone. Strategic partners Russia and China have Tehran’s back, and their role in West Asia’s conflict will only grow if the US doesn’t keep Israel in check.

The Russian population has handed to the Kremlin total carte blanche to exercise brutal, maximum punishment — whatever and wherever it takes.

No more shadow play. It’s now in the open. No holds barred.

Washington needs to win its Gazan war against Iran because it failed to win its Ukrainian war against Russia.

As the west’s support for Israel’s Gaza war becomes indefensible, Moscow aligns itself with the Global Majority in defense of Palestine.

The only country that could possibly distract the west from Ukraine is Israel. But the US and its allies are walking into an existential trap if they think a West Asian victory will be more easily won than a European one.

While some Russian heavyweights push to recast Israel as a hostile state, the Kremlin is unlikely to budge. Instead, Moscow will stay “neutral” to maximize its West Asian influence, all while edging closer to the Arab and Muslim worlds.

Like dominos, African states are one by one falling outside the shackles of neocolonialism. Chad, Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, and now Gabon are saying “non” to France’s longtime domination of African financial, political, economic, and security affairs.

Chinese President Xi Jinping defined all the major decisions embedded in the 15^th BRICS summit in South Africa as “historic”. That may be seen as an understatement.
