☢️Former Israeli Acting President: ‘Israel should STOP DENYING it has nuclear weapons. It’s SO STUPID…

The only way to calm down this threat in the region is to have a Middle East where no country has nuclear weapons. NEITHER ISRAEL, NOR IRAN.’

-Former Speaker of the Israeli Knesset and former Acting President of Israel Avraham Burg on the latest episode of Going Underground

Noam Chomsky explains why the US🇺🇸 government, Israel, and the media never acknowledge Israel’s nukes:

If the US were to recognise Israel as a state with nuclear weapons, US aid to Israel would be ILLEGAL since they were developed outside of international legal frameworks.

The absurd assumption behind the US’ negotiating position is that Iran would somehow just willingly give up its nuclear program and missile program…

Meaning it would have no deterrent against an Israel that is armed with nuclear weapons, that launched two wars against it in a single year.

While the US demands Iran has no deterrent, according to Washington, Israel is allowed to keep its nuclear Sword of Damocles hanging over Iran and the entire region.

☢️Trump will WALK AWAY from Iran War…but can Middle East nuclear proliferation be STOPPED?

Afshin Rattansi: ‘How can the world disarm Israel of nuclear weapons then?’

Former Israeli Acting President Abraham Burg: ‘It’s not about disarming Israel, it’s about the entire region.’

Afshin: ‘Well, no one else has nuclear weapons, it’s just Israel that has them in this region. How can the world disarm them?’

Burg: ‘What started now does not end with this two-week ceasefire. There are so many genies out of the bottle now.

And the motivation for nuclear power without America, because America under Trump will walk away like it ran away from so many other conflicts around the world in the last 20-some years, people will be motivated to have nuclear weapons.

So there should be both a regional setting and global pressure to disable anybody who has nuclear capability, war nuclear capability, not to have it.

Whatever guarantees are given to Iran, to the Saudis, to the Israelis, those guarantees should be very, very solid, very, very strong.

But with one bottom line: the Middle East clean and clear of weapons of mass destruction. Can we have nuclear capabilities and nuclear reactors for energy? Yes.

Should these nuclear energy centres be run together by Israelis and Saudis and Iranians and Egyptians and Emiratis? The answer is yes.

The more cooperation we have on peacetime nuclear capability, the less threat we have with the warheads.’

Benjamin Netanyahu says US🇺🇸 Vice President J.D. Vance personally told him about the details of negotiations with Iran in Islamabad:

"He reported to me in detail, as members of this administration do every day."

Every day, more evidence comes out that Israel has an unparalleled influence over Washington’s foreign policy, so much so, that a US Vice President personally reports to him on the details of negotiations to end a war.

In fact, the Israeli Prime Minister has Trump Administration officials reporting to him on a daily basis.

The US government is captured by Israel, and the evidence is clear as day for the world to see.

“I think blocking the Strait of Hormuz is fine…if no oil ever goes to China again, and their economy is destroyed, that would be a really wonderful day for me."

-Senator Rick Scott

The US’ playbook as a responsible hegemon promoting global stability is to try and destroy the second largest economy in the world, China🇨🇳, to unleash a global economic depression…

If there has ever been a clearer indication for the need for a multipolar world, it’s this.

Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: ‘The US🇺🇸 is in a deeply neurotic funk. The cause is China🇨🇳.

China didn’t beat up its neighbours either. For 1000 years, China did not attack Japan. The US can’t even take a year off from attacking other countries.’

China’s🇨🇳 Xi Jinping to Spain’s🇪🇸 Pedro Sánchez:

‘China and Spain are both PRINCIPLED and REASONABLE countries. We are willing to stand on the right side of history.

We should oppose the LAW OF THE JUNGLE and together maintain true multilateralism.’

While Europe flounders in trembling cowardice at US hegemonic power and perpetual ineptitude, Spain seems to be the only outlier.

UK🇬🇧 Chancellor Rachel Reeves SLAMS Trump’s war on Iran:

"This is a war that we did not start. It was a war that we did not want. I feel very frustrated and angry that the US went into this war without a clear exit plan, without a clear idea of what they were trying to achieve…as a result the Strait of Hormuz is now blocked.”

The conclusion from the war on Iran should be that the US is a rogue state, lashing out dangerously and chaotically as its hegemony declines.

The ‘Special Relationship™️’ is nothing but an abusive relationship where the UK is either expected to uncritically support or be dragged into one disastrous war after another, thereby increasing anti-British sentiment around the world.

But the British political class and foreign policy establishment has so far been to unimaginative and weak to deepen their strategic ties with the rising powers of the world, and is still seen by the rest of the world as a protesting US vassal, that in due time, will recommit to once again being a totally obedient vassal.

They of course can change course, whether there is enough will or courage is another question entirely.

ICYMI: Cuba’s🇨🇺 President responds to Donald Trump’s threats against him and Cuba:

"I have no fear. I am willing to give my life for the Revolution.”

What Donald Trump can’t grasp is that for revolutionary leaders, principles are more important than money or deals of servitude to remain in power.

In Trump’s world, profit and power are the be-all and end-all. For true revolutionaries, dying fighting for principles, even in the face of oblivion, is a better fate than bending the knee.

Former CIA Officer Philip Agee explains why the US🇺🇸 has been waging economic warfare on Cuba🇨🇺 for decades and trying to overthrow the socialist system:

‘They know that if the Cubans are successful of their example in being able to provide, as a poor country, the best medical care in the third world…it’s a very bad example for the United States.

There is a large mass of people in the US who can look to Cuba and say ‘wow if they can do it on a per capita income of $2K-2.5K, where ours is $22,500 a year, what’s wrong with our system? Maybe we ought to consider an alternative.’ That’s why Sandinista Nicaragua had to be destroyed, that’s why Grenada had to be destroyed.

Because any movement that comes to power with the idea of providing for all the people and escaping the control of the US and its economy, that is bad news for the United States and among the upper circles of power and influence.’

🇺🇸 U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright:

💬 'The Arabian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz have been important my whole lifetime. The President knew going into this that if you disrupt the flow of energy through that, in the short term, you’re going to push up energy prices.'

Washington knew the risks to global energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz and chose escalation regardless. The fallout is now dismissed as “short-term pain,” even as markets react.

Hegemonic policy in action. Control over energy routes is turned into leverage, while the costs are pushed outward. Prices surge, markets tighten, and distant economies absorb the shock.

Strategic arrogance over caution. The risks were known, the consequences foreseeable, yet the burden is shifted onto the rest of the world. 📉
