Nous sommes peut-être sur le point d'entrer dans l'ère post-américaine au Moyen-Orient.
Dix heures. C'est le temps qu'il a fallu à l'Iran pour :
assiéger l'Empire du Chaos, du Pillage et des Frappes permanentes dans tout le Golfe.
bombarder sans relâche 27 bases militaires américaines majeures, causant des dégâts considérables.
déterminer que tous les agents des États-Unis et israéliens au Moyen-Orient sont des cibles légitimes pour des représailles.

We all know that free trade is good and tariffs are bad. As the great Murray Rothbard has said "Political boundaries of nations may be important for other reasons, but they have no economic meaning whatever. Suppose, for example, that each state of the United States were a separate nation. Then we would hear a lot of protectionist bellyaching that we are now fortunately spared.

Bibi Netanyahu has again salvaged his prime ministership, and the hapless Donald Trump hopes the markets won't move too badly this week. After all, his advisors and partners told him this would be easy, and good for his presidency. A cakewalk, if you will. Israel will do the heavy lifting, they said.
Saturday's attack on Iran was posed as a decapitation strike; it also decapitated several dozen schoolgirls in southern Iran within the first few hours, but thats just war, right ? Trump told Americans that the latest unconstitutional mayhem was based on five facetious factors: 1) No nuclear weapons or nuclear enrichment for Iranians, 2) no long range ballistics missiles for Iranians, 3) no Ayatollah for the Iranians, 4) no Iranian support for anti-Israel forces like Hezbollah or Hamas, and 5) liberation of the Iranian people, first of their weapons.

The recent controversy over the Israeli incursion into the Gaza strip has revealed some deep fissures within the Conservative Movement. For despite the massive support in the United States for the initial Israeli invasion after October 7, there have been cautionary voices raised on the Right, in particular, by widely-viewed podcast journalists such as Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly concerning the apparently open-ended American support for the policies of the Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu and how such support melds (or not) with the Trump administration's vaunted America First agenda.

"If I have an hour to solve a problem, I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about the solution," Albert Einstein is reported to have said. The importance of identifying the relevant question applies equally to political discourse. Many political interventions depend entirely on how the problem is framed in the first place.

So now the die is cast and the United States has joined Israel in an unprovoked attack on a non-threatening Iran to destroy its military capabilities and to bring about regime change. This is a major mis-step that could easily turn out very badly as it is a pointless war of choice that could easily escalate to neighboring states and become nuclear if a reckless Israel decides it needs to "defend" itself against an Iranian response.
Since the French Revolution, most violent regime changes have resulted in terrible, unforeseen consequences, including years of war and civil war that achieve nothing.

The four most expensive words in the English language are "this time it's different."
―Sir John Templeton
In her 1983 novel, Sudden Death, Rita Mae Brown-reflecting on the nature of addiction- wrote that "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results." The quotation is frequently misattributed to Albert Einstein.
He seeks future peace through present strength.

Ever since Iran's "Islamic Revolution" succeeded in erecting a theocratic regime whose leaders condemn America as the "Great Satan," call for "death to America," and kill American soldiers, a question has hung in the air: How many years would the United States tolerate an Islamic dictatorship that murders American citizens, threatens America's economic interests, and annually celebrates having held fifty-two Americans hostage for four hundred and forty-four days by burning American flags ? The answer might be forty-seven.

The Islamic Republic either survives the latest onslaught, Iran goes the Venezuelan route, or "Balkanization" begins.
The joint US-Israeli campaign against Iran officially aims to demilitarize the country and overthrow its government. The conflict has only just begun, but Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has already been killed along with several high-ranking military officials.

The failure of Putin and Xi to stand up for their countries in the face of Washington's aggression has convinced Trump that he can act with impunity anywhere in the world. Remember, Trump said words to the effect that he can do whatever he wants. Trumps words reminded me of Lenin when he declared that "the scientific concept of dictatorship means neither more nor less than unlimited power, resting directly on force, not limited by anything, not restricted by any laws, nor any absolute rules.

The World Economic Forum (WEF) - the "Davos Emperor" - has just suffered a further downfall. Its President and CEO, Børge Brende, who less than two years ago in May 2024, transitioned into full WEF leadership after Klaus Schwab's resignation, due to scandals linked to financial irregularities and sexual harassment by Schwab and senior WEF management.

The government recently hired a firm called Gryphon Scientific to analyze how well the stockpile could respond to a range of health disaster scenarios.
The warehouse Greenfieldboyce visited contains 130 shipping containers, but who will be on the receiving end of these shipping containers during an actual emergency?
"While they do have plans for emergencies, and lists of volunteers, they're volunteers," said Paul Petersen, director of emergency preparedness for Tennessee.

Attaque planifiée depuis des mois
Le 28 février, les États-Unis et Israël ont lancé une série conjointe de bombardements sur des villes et des objectifs militaires en Iran. De plus, l'ancien président Mahmoud Ahmadinejad et le plus haut chef spirituel, l'ayatollah Ali Khamenei, ont perdu la vie. C'est précisément Khamenei qui, dans le passé, avait émis une fatwa (interdiction) sur le développement et l'utilisation des armes nucléaires.

youtube cite, sur Fréquence populaire media, le livre de Philip K. Dick, L'avant dernière vérité, en référence au mensonge de la menace russe, qu'il qualifie de science- fiction, brandie par les élites occidentales pour terroriser leurs populations et se maintenir au pouvoir. Il mentionne notamment les dernières déclarations du chancelier allemand, Friedrich Merz, qui annonce une guerre éternelle contre la Russie, dont il fustige "l'état de très profonde barbarie", dans la plus pure tradition des nazis qui ont tué plus de 25 millions de Russes pendant la seconde guerre mondiale.

Des manifestants se rassemblent dans le centre-ville de Bassora, en Irak, le 1er mars 2026, suite à l'annonce de la mort du guide suprême iranien, l'ayatollah Ali Khamenei, lors des attaques américano-israéliennes.
De nombreux rassemblements ont eu lieu ce 1er mars à travers le monde chiite à la suite de l'annonce de la mort du guide suprême de la révolution islamique, tué dans l'attaque lancée par les États-Unis et Israël contre l'Iran.

Le régime a poussé très fort l'éducation, parce qu'un Etat sous sanctions a besoin d'ingénieurs, de médecins, de scientifiques pour survivre. Résultat : taux d'alphabétisation élevé, explosion des inscriptions universitaires après les années 80, et une proportion massive de femmes à l'université. Contrôle moral d'un côté, formation scientifique de l'autre.
