IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir said that he approved attack plans for Iran and Lebanon. The statement was made in the middle of a two-week ceasefire.  On Wednesday, Zamir said he “approved plans for the continuation [of the war] – both in Lebanon and in Iran.” Israel, the US, and Iran are currently in an uneasy truce as Washington and Tehran attempt to broker a deal to end the conflict.  The ceasefire, which came into effect last week, was intended to cover all warring parties in the Middle East, including Lebanon. However, after agreeing to the truce, Washington and…

Photograph by Nathaniel St. Clair As the recently announced truce between the U.S.-Israel and Iran hobbles along, one must wonder if the two-week cease-fire will hold, let alone lead to a genuine, long-term peace agreement. Among the numerous initial stumbling blocks is Iran’s claim that the ceasefire agreement covers Lebanon, while the U.S. and Israel insist it does not cover Lebanon. According to a report from The Hill,“Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who helped negotiate the ceasefire, on Wednesday called for ‘an immediate ceasefire everywhere, including Lebanon and other regions, effective immediately.’” Sadly, the U.S-Israel war against Iran is but the latest round…

President Donald Trump, in between blockading the Strait of Hormuz and posting blasphemous AI images of himself as Jesus, claims he still wants to strike a deal with Iran’s government to end the current conflict, reopen the Strait, and curtail the country’s nuclear program. Read Full Article ⟶ Source link

On July 26, 1956, Egypt’s President Gamal Abdel Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal Company, a British/French-controlled entity managing the operation of the Suez Canal, a critical chokepoint in international maritime commerce since its opening in the later 1800s. Nasser acted in order to fund the Aswan High Dam after promised financing  by the World Bank was rescinded by Western leaders—principally Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and Prime Minister Antony Eden—who were frustrated by Nasser’s Cold War policies. Nasser’s unprecedented action precipitated the secret Israeli-French-British Sevres Protocol and the subsequent “Tripartite Aggression”—the invasion by Britain, France, and Israel to topple Nasser,…

Photograph by Nathaniel St. Clair Over the weekend, vice president J.D. Vance sojourned to Islamabad to negotiate an end to the Iran War. Given that the U.S. and Israel sabotaged the two previous negotiations with the Persian nation, Iran had good reason to be skeptical. It was correct. The U.S. diplomatic amateurs utterly failed to understand who has the upper hand in this imbroglio, namely Iran, and thus made shockingly unrealistic demands. Now we’ll see whether Tehran’s diplomats survive the usually fatal process of negotiating with Trump’s team of jokers. After Vance called it quits and despite Trump’s threats to…

A two-week ceasefire to the Iran War entered its eighth day on Wednesday one day after President Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox News that he believes the war is “very close to over.” “We’re not finished,” Trump added. “We’ll see what happens.” The Washington Post reported on Wednesday that the U.S. will send thousands of additional troops into the Middle East in the coming weeks. The forces include 6,000 troops aboard the aircraft carrier USS George H.W. Bush and several warships escorting it, as well as 4,200 other servicemembers. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told the…
