🚨🇮🇷 THE GULF WAR NARRATIVE IS COLLAPSING Despite official statements claiming Iran would stop attacking its neighbors, the reality on the ground tells a different story with continued strikes on Dubai and Bahrain. As Glenn Diesen explains, these mixed signals suggest a dangerous disconnect between Tehran’s political rhetoric and its military actions. The "apology" to Gulf states may have been a calculated move to prevent regional fighters from joining the U.S. and Israeli side. Glenn Diesen

🚨🇮🇷🇺🇸THE PATH TO WORLD WAR III: THE NUCLEAR ARMS RACE We are currently in a more dangerous position than the world was before the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. In a chilling warning, Mehdi Hasan explains how the invasion of non-nuclear Iran is signaling to Turkey and Saudi Arabia that they MUST acquire nukes to survive. The era of non-proliferation is dead as regional powers realize that only nuclear deterrence can prevent a U.S.-backed regime change. The "elephants" are fighting, and the entire global order is being trampled in the process. Mehdi Hasan

🚨🇺🇸 🇮🇷 STRATEGIC RETALIATION: WHY IRAN IS STRIKING BACK While Western policymakers celebrate the death of the previous Supreme Leader, they ignore the reality that the new leadership is even more hardline. As noted by Glenn Diesen, Iran’s decision to strike U.S. bases and regional allies is a calculated strategic move to show that standing with the U.S. comes at a heavy cost. The doubling down by U.S. politicians ignores the fact that the mission has clearly backfired. The U.S. position in the region has been weakened, and the repercussions of this miscalculation will be immense. Glenn Diesen

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 THE FRAGILE SHIELD: ARE U.S. ALLIES BECOMING DISPOSABLE? A crisis of trust is brewing among U.S. partners. As air defenses are stripped from frontline states to protect Israel, allies are beginning to question their "disposable" status. The U.S. presence in the Gulf and East Asia is supposed to provide security, but it is increasingly making these nations targets. When air defenses are moved from South Korea to the Middle East, it forces a massive rethink of global alliances and the reliability of American protection. Are U.S. bases a security guarantee or a liability? Glenn Diesen argues that the struggle for "hearts and minds" is being lost as priorities shift away from regional partners. Glenn Diesen

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The ceasefire is on the line and both sides are still climbing the escalation ladder. Glenn Diesen warns that skipping negotiations over the blockade is a dangerous gamble, but so is letting aggression go unanswered. "It's dangerous to throw away the whole prospect of a peace negotiation. On the other hand, it's also dangerous to throw away your deterrence." Someone has to blink. The question is who breaks first. Glenn Diesen

🚨🇺🇸 THE DECLINE OF HEGEMONY: A NEW WORLD ORDER The era of relying solely on U.S. security is rapidly coming to an end as the "declining hegemon" lashes out. According to Glenn Diesen, we are witnessing a global shift where betting your security on Washington no longer makes sense for rising regional powers. From the Gulf states to South Korea, nations are realizing that U.S. presence now brings more insecurity than protection. The monopoly on global security has been broken, and the Middle East will never look the same again. Glenn Diesen

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 Burning the Middle East to the ground might actually be on the table. Analyst Glenn Diesen breaks down the cold logic: if the U.S. is losing the region anyway, wrecking Iran starves China of energy and hands Washington control of the Strait of Hormuz. "If the U.S. thinks it's not going to be able to stay in the Middle East anyways, why not burn the whole thing to the ground?" Some people are already thinking exactly that. Glenn Diesen

🇺🇸🇨🇳 China is officially breaking its silence, legally instructing its companies to ignore American sanctions for the first time in history. Glenn Diesel views this as a massive display of statecraft ahead of the Trump-Xi summit, signaling that Beijing will no longer tolerate the "self-harm" caused by Washington’s trade wars. Glenn observes that as the UAE doubles down on its U.S. partnership, China is positioning itself as the ultimate shield for Iran, ensuring the standoff in the Strait of Hormuz drags on. Glenn Diesen

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The people warning about nuclear escalation are increasingly treated like the dangerous ones. Diplomacy itself has become politically toxic across much of the West, where even talking to adversaries is framed as weakness or surrender. Geopolitical analyst Glenn Diesen says that mindset is exactly what makes catastrophic escalation more likely. “If they say Iran is an existential threat, it's not that far-fetched. They might see this as an existential threat, and they would use a nuclear weapon. It's not unthinkable.” Glenn Diesen

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 There is no version of this story where the U.S. comes out looking in control. Glenn Diesen laid out the dilemma Iran faces in signing a deal with the U.S. when peace in Lebanon isn't secured. "If Iran says we won't get baited into a conflict that derails peace. But if they do that, for Israel it is open season on Lebanon." Glenn Diesen

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 A $300 billion reconstruction fund, sanctions relief, and a nuclear deal that hands Iran the win may be required for a peace deal. Glenn Diesen acknowledges that Iran has won the war, but the aggressiveness of their demands makes him pessimistic about the prospect of a straightforward deal landing in the foreseeable future. "My only source of optimism is that a war cannot be won by the U.S. anymore." Glenn Diesen

🚨 🇺🇸 🇮🇷THE POINT OF NO RETURN. TRUMP’S STRATEGIC BOX President Trump may have reached a stage where a clean exit from the Iranian conflict is no longer possible. Glenn Diesen, a leading Professor of Geoeconomics and Russian Foreign Policy, argues that the global economic fallout is now forcing a search for an urgent off ramp. As energy shortages hit Asia and nations declare force majeure, the pressure to end the war is becoming an existential threat to the administration. Glenn Diesen

🚨THE UKRAINE PRECEDENT IN IRAN Just as many predicted a swift three-day collapse in Ukraine, similar miscalculations are being made regarding air power in Iran. Glenn Diesen highlights that without ground troops, bombing campaigns rarely lead to the political submission that military planners expect. We are witnessing a repeat of the same escalatory mistakes... missed peace opportunities and an over-reliance on technology over strategy. Glenn Diesen

🚨🇮🇱🇮🇷 Israel hit Beirut on the day a deal with Iran is meant to be signed. Glenn Diesen explains why Iran may be forced to include Lebanon in its terms of peace. "The Iranians might have to demand it. They are worried about a common strategy by the U.S. That is to take something off the intense fighting and put it on the slow burner. Israelis can just move in more incrementally." Glenn Diesen

🚨🇮🇷 IRAN DOESN’T HAVE TO WIN, IT JUST HAS TO SURVIVE That’s the trap. As long as Tehran keeps fighting, launching drones, and threatening the Strait of Hormuz, the war keeps draining the U.S. And if Washington sinks deeper in, Russia and China may start arming Iran the way NATO armed Ukraine. And suddenly the world is dealing with two grinding proxy wars at once. Ukraine in Europe. Iran in the Middle East. That’s the scenario where global tensions start drifting dangerously close to a third world war.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 IRAN IS RATIONAL; THIS WAR IS NOT Norwegian political scientist Glenn Diesen argues Western assessments of Iran are flawed. "It's often presented as just being a bunch of crazy mullahs who wants to acquire nuclear weapons and just burn the world and kill all Jews.” "Once the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, now they face an existential threat. What else can they do? They go all in.” Glenn Diesen

🚨🇺🇸 🇮🇷 The Strait of Hormuz has turned into a high-stakes testing ground as reports surface of Iranian missiles striking a U.S. Navy warship. Glenn Diesel suggests that Iran is forced to uphold its red lines to prevent Europe from feeling emboldened to join the American escort operations. "It made sense to uphold the red line by striking."

🇮🇱🇺🇸 ISRAEL ESSENTIALLY HAS VETO OVER WHEN U.S. ENDS WAR Norwegian political scientist Glenn Diesen says Israel had role in U.S. getting into war with Iran, and they will have role in when it gets out. But only to a certain extent. “If the core national security of the United States is under threat, it is possible that the U.S. would make a decision and just tell the Israelis that they have to adjust.” Glenn Diesen

🚨🇨🇳 🇷🇺 China and Russia may trust an Iranian toll on the Strait of Hormuz more than they would ever trust American control of it. Geopolitical analyst Glenn Diesen says the assumption that Beijing and Moscow will pressure Iran to back down misreads how they see the bigger picture. While they would prefer no toll at all, both would rather live with an Iranian-controlled strait than watch Iran defeated and the U.S. cemented as the guardian of the waterway. Looking at Venezuela, Cuba, and their own hijacked ships, neither trusts Washington in that role. Glenn does see a genuine opening on the nuclear question, noting that China, Russia, and Iran all claim to oppose an Iranian bomb. If Washington can narrow its demands down to that single goal, a deal becomes far more reachable, though the moment enrichment and the strait re-enter the conversation, the path narrows again.
