Iranian regional control was not based on nuclear deterrence, as other superpowers did during the 20^th century, but in the absence of that technology, it was necessarily based on other elements.

Regional control

The attacks that Iran continues to receive come as no surprise. This is nothing new, but rather the continuous and periodic modus operandi of the collective West, which attacks Islamic and revolutionary Iran because it represents something different from their model, outside their control and, above all, too powerful as a civilization.

Book review of Killing Democracy by Finian Cunningham, Daniel Kovalik, Jeremy Kuzmarov, KJ Noh, and Ron Ridenour

Whose democracy is being killed here ? The great thing about this eye-opening and chilling book is that it shows how, in the process of killing democracy abroad, Western elites have all but killed their own.

In manufacturing consent for ill-advised interventions ranging from Chile (removing an elected government), Palestine (ditto, after Hamas won the national elections in 2005), and Afghanistan (creating mayhem), to Libya (left in chaos), Iraq (spawning ISIS), Syria (removing a secular government and installing Al Qaida) and Ukraine (helping stage a coup then using Ukraine to goad Russia) Western governments with their cheer-leading mainstream media acolytes have ridden roughshod over the wishes of not only local populations but also their own, ignoring or moulding opinion to suit.

Trump's interest in Greenland is not the result of a sudden outburst, mere hubris, or simply hatred of Europe.

Let's be honest: we have no idea how this "soap opera" of tensions between the U.S. and Europe over Greenland will end.

La recente nuova fase di destabilizzazione interna alla quale è stata sottoposta la Repubblica islamica dell'Iran e l'insistenza della propaganda occidentale sull'imminenza della sua caduta (con l'appoggio della stessa all'erede dello Shah Reza Ciro Pahlavi) rendono necessario affrontare il particolare percorso storico del Paese dagli inizi del Novecento fino ai giorni nostri.

Une nouvelle frappe russe de grande envergure, menée hier, a mis Kiev et plusieurs autres grandes villes ukrainiennes au bord du gouffre. Selon des sources ukrainiennes, des missiles Iskander aux missiles hypersoniques Zircon, tout aurait été utilisé. Ces mêmes sources affirment que la quasi-totalité des armes assaillantes ont été «abattues» :

Apparemment, Kiev, la capitale ukrainienne, est au bord de l'effondrement total. Le maire de la ville, Vitaly Klitschko, a récemment demandé aux habitants de quitter immédiatement leurs maisons et de chercher refuge dans les zones environnantes, car il n'est plus en mesure de garantir l'approvisionnement en électricité, en chauffage et en eau pour tous les citoyens.
