Pour comprendre le contexte des événements en Iran aujourd'hui, nous devons revenir sur ce que disait le commentateur américain et biographe de Trump, Michael Wolff, que j'avais cité en juillet dernier, à propos de la pensée de Trump en relation avec les attaques imminentes contre les installations d'enrichissement iraniennes de Fordow, Natanz et Ispahan :

« Ce qui se déroule à Gaza après le cessez-le-feu ne peut être lu comme une phase de « calme » ou comme une reconstruction traditionnelle. Il s'agit plutôt d'un passage de la logique de la guerre directe à celle d'une gestion de crise à long terme.

Over the weekend, as a US carrier strike group made its way toward Iran, President Trump told Politico, "It's time to look for new leadership in Iran." This pro "regime change" statement came just days after the US and Israel-led covert operation to overthrow the Iranian government was finally defeated by Iranian authorities.
The US President is making it clear he is not giving up on "regime change" for Iran.

The most disturbing lesson from the 2014 Maidan Revolution in Ukraine that has been well-learned by the various intelligence agencies in this business is that the application of extreme violence - especially aimed at law enforcement, other state authorities, and civilians - provides an effective template upon which to further the regime change narrative.

Finnian Cunningham, Jeremy Kuzmarov, Daniel Kovalik, KJ Now, and Ron Ridenour have published a useful compendium of some of Washington's regime changes and public deceptions since World War II. The information they have collected is well known and largely correct. The authors use the information to reach the reasonable conclusion that by its own actions the US government over time has discredited the belief that the US government is a well-meaning one holding out hope to the world.

A lot has happened since I last wrote, most of it relating to an enormous wintry island called Greenland, which was first settled by the Norse in the Middle Ages and which has been a part of the Danish kingdom since the eighteenth century.
The first such thing that happened, was that Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen met with U.S.

Ever since 1986, when Austria had an even lower life-expectancy than the U.S. did, there has been NO EU or other U.S.-allied country that has had as low a life-expectancy as the U.S. had, and the size of this difference has been steadily increasing year-after-year, so that what had been a small difference between the U.S. and its peers in 1982 (just six tenths of a year) is now, as-of the latest year, 2023, 4.1 years.

A couple of weeks ago, in my post headlined What Would Smedley Butler Say about Venezuela?, I expressed my intuition that the Trump administration had probably figured out a way to persuade or incentivize the Venezuelan military and security forces to stand down when the U.S. launched its raid to abduct President Maduro. Apart from Maduro's largely Cuban praetorian guard, little resistance was mounted against the Delta Force team and supporting U.S.

The consolidation of Turkish influence over Syria strengthens the regional position of the military bloc that's forming within the Ummah and thus aids the rise of a new pole at the crossroads of Afro-Eurasia if its prospective members formalize their ties.
The "Syrian Democratic Forces" (SDF), the US-backed umbrella group dominated by armed Syrian Kurds from the YPG who are connected to Turkish-designated PKK terrorists, rapidly collapsed over the weekend due to the coordinated defection of their Arab tribal junior partners.

It is well known that people argue vociferously over U.S. politics. They have always argued, but we are now so deep into maniacal disagreements that something significant has changed. People scream at each other or refuse to speak.

So far, so good. Iran hasn't yet been attacked by the United States on behalf of the Israel uber alles lobby. It's good, so far - because such an attack would not be in the interests of Americans - or even Israel, for that matter. The attack was probably called off - for now - because of a dawning realization that the Iranians have the capability to inflict the kind of damage on Israel - and America - that punching-bag states such as Iran have previously not had.

Cela ressemble à une pochade. Une farce, même. Et de très mauvaise qualité.
Certains pays européens envoient des troupes au Groenland, après la volonté manifeste de Trump d'annexer cette île glaciale aux États-Unis.
Des troupes de quatre ou cinq pays européens, en mission sous le nom de «Artic Endurance». En réalité, une poignée d'hommes.
