CIRCUS MAXIMUS Circus Ringmaster brags he's called a summit with Putin in Hungary. Orban appoints a committee to organize everything. Then Ringmaster cancels it - "doesn't feel right" because he will never get a sham "ceasefire". And he has less than nothing to offer Moscow. Look who's by his side: stale herring Tutti-Frutti al Rutti. Nothing has changed. Well, a bit. It's NATO/Circus Ringmaster's war. And there's NO way Circus Maximus can manage NATOstan's strategic defeat.

NATO is "seriously" preparing for a war with Russia. "They are not hiding this fact". On the frontline there will be those dog-sled conductors they sent to future US state Greenland.

EU-Mercosur deal. Not much of a big deal. Winners: mostly ultra-powerful lobbies in Brussels. And as exporters, mostly Germany and Italy. For Mercosur, not much of a change. Top exporters to the EU are China (20%) and the US 13%). Brazil has only 1.8% and Argentina 0.3%. Lots of subsidies, quotas and exceptions will be in place. Parmigiano Reggiano and French champagne will continue to be protected, while Brazil will not allow an invasion of European cars.

For Moscow and Beijing, one thing is non-negotiable: IRAN MUST NOT FALL. Whatever it takes. That line is already drawn. If regime change looked real, they’d step in directly. But here’s the twist - Iran isn’t even asking for help. They keep it independent. Controlled. Calculated. And from Moscow the message is clear: if you need us, we’re ready.

The U.S. didn’t just bomb Iran, they hit the MAP. Ports. Tehran. Military bases. And even a Chinese-built railway inside Iran. That’s not a strike: that’s a message to Eurasia. And yet Iran isn’t isolated anymore - it’s tied to China, Russia, India. And that system is moving FAST. [unfortunately I had no time to get into details, especially India betraying Iran]. The real question goes beyond Iran. It’s how far you may push before the whole [BRICS] bloc reacts.

The message from the U.S. and Israel was clear: a ritualistic sacrifice, to intimidate the Iranian population. Bomb a school. Kill the girls first - then strike again. A second Tomahawk killing the parents and teachers who rushed to help. A brutal two-tap strike, justified by faulty intelligence and framed as an indirect attack on the IRGC.

Prepare for $200 oil. Right now prices hover around $100. But they could hit $200 within days. Goldman Sachs warned years ago it could even reach $500 if the Strait of Hormuz stays blocked for weeks. The global economy may be COLLAPSING in real time in front of all of us.

China will NEVER abandon Iran. For several reasons. For China, Iran is a matter of NATIONAL SECURITY. It’s a key energy supplier and a central corridor of the Belt and Road (BRI) linking China with West Asia and Europe. Beijing and Tehran signed a $450 billion infrastructure-for-energy strategic partnership. And there is something Washington’s barbarians never understand: civilization and culture. Persia and Chinese dynasties have had strong ties throughout history.

ISIS/Daesh hits the Kremlin. After being normalized in Washington and Brussels. Realpolitik may take precedence, but the optics are dreadful.

I asked Prof. Marandi whether Tehran is being carpet-bombed day and night — and are Iran’s air defenses performing adequately? He says air defenses are NOT DISABLED. But the scale of the US and Israeli air forces is enormous, and Iranian systems are working constantly. Many strikes come from missiles launched by jets outside Iranian airspace — over the Gulf, Kuwait or Saudi Arabia.

Funeral of the girls killed by the Epstein Syndicate in an elementary school in Minab, Iran. 165 dead - mostly girls, as well as several parents and teachers. NOT A WORD of comdemnation by NATOstan ghouls.

Oreshnik systems are already in combat — and deployed to Belarus. Anyone in NATO with an IQ above 10 can do the math. It takes twenty launches to eviscerate Europe’s top NATO bases. From Germany to Poland to Sicily — in minutes, not hours. Brussels simply cannot admit it.

Almost all trade corridors across Eurasia now run through IRAN. China just finished the China-Iran railway - the backbone of the East-West connectivity corridor. From Xinjiang to Central Asia to Iran and straight to the Persian Gulf. Add the North-South corridor: Russia-Iran-India. Beyond geography: this is the NEW GLOBAL MAP.

Scenario: what if Russia and China lured Trump into a trap? That’s quite possible. Russia and China think geopolitics several chess moves ahead. They share converging interests in Venezuela and work in parallel. A megalomaniac narcissist can’t escape a trap without losing face. And without doing anything, they may have pushed the U.S. president into a major geopolitical mistake.

Forget the fake numbers coming from the Pentagon. This war is not about body counts. Or 'decapitation strikes'. That’s how the US and Israel fight. Iran thinks differently — strategically, long-term, systemically. Their key objective is simple: remove all US military bases from West Asia. Everything else follows from that. As in the petroyuan. Unlike BRICS, which talks, talks, talks, Iran with ONE move established an alternative payment system in the Strait of Hormuz.

Massive plot twist right inside the venerable Umayyad mosque in Damascus. The NATO/Israeli-Turk Head-Chopping Army are now promising the Palestinians they are coming to liberate Gaza and Jerusalem. Yet until Sunday it was "We luuurv Israel". The MC of this P.R. op (right at the end of the video) is the Caliph of al-Sham himself, Jolani.

Trump already tried TACO through FOUR key actors. Oman (twice), Turkey, Qatar, and Russia. In fact, Trump called Putin - not the other way around. Putin hinted that Russia could be a mediator. Only if Washington makes a serious offer to Iran. The ball is in the US court.

Let me be clear. A blockade isn’t pressure. It’s an ACT OF AGGRESSION under UN law. That’s not opinion. That’s Resolution 3314. And that’s exactly why Iran refused to go to 'Islamabad II'. You don’t negotiate while your ships are being attacked and your ports blocked. At that point talks are over before they even begin.

China isn’t declaring a new world reserve currency. It’s doing something much quieter. Step by step, Beijing is expanding the yuan in trade. It's all about payment systems. Countries buying from China are encouraged to settle in yuan through CIPS instead of the dollar network. No dramatic announcement. Just a slow, steady shift in how the world actually pays for goods. FULL EPISODE ON THE CRADLE:

Every second the Strait of Hormuz stays closed, the Russian budget grows - without lifting a finger. At the same time, Moscow has quietly been HELPING Iran. Russia shared the U.S. battle plan with the IRGC a WEEK BEFORE the first strike. That's one more element explaining why Iran’s first counterstrike came just 30 minutes later.

Iran keeps constantly re-tweaking its Decentralized Mosaic strategy. One wave - more missiles. Next wave - more drones. Always different. This isn’t random. They were taught how to do it by Russian specialists, based on their experience in Ukraine. Add to that Chinese real-time satellite intel. That's why Iranian strikes became highly precise.
