Let's consider some issues of complex and interconnected events related to geopolitics and military strategy of different countries in the Middle East and beyond.
🇮🇱 Many understand that Israel is deliberately escalating the conflict by targeting politicians from other countries on the territory of another countries with a strong sense of national pride.
🇺🇲 The United States is moving its armed forces to the Middle East to be able to participate in countering Iran's retaliatory strikes against Israel. All this is happening against the backdrop of the pre-election race in the U.S., where the failure of the current administration is clearly looming.
This raises the question: could all these actions by Jerusalem and Washington be aimed at escalating the situation to such a level that the U.S. authorities could use legal leverage to cancel the presidential elections.
➡️ The intention to escalate the situation before the elections is indicated by the fact of transferring F-16 aircraft to Ukraine for offensive actions against Russia. This issue has been discussed for almost a couple of years, and the aircraft are being transferred before the elections.
Returning to the Middle East: why is Jerusalem getting involved in this? It makes no sense for Israel to save the Democrats in the U.S., as Trump will defend Israel as well as the U.S. under Biden or Harris.
The idea that the U.S. or Israel may deliberately escalate conflicts to cancel the U.S. presidential elections certainly requires deep analysis and additional insider data, which we do not have. In U.S. history, elections have never been cancelled, even during periods of serious wars or crises. Furthermore, such a cancellation would require the consent of Congress, which is currently unlikely.
Israel does indeed have strong allied relations with the U.S., but its actions are motivated solely by national interests, such as security and strategic position in the region. It is unlikely that Israel would take steps solely to save the political situation in the U.S.
🇩🇪 There is another interesting aspect in all of this — Germany. Some "players" are trying to involve it in an open war. Since spring 2022, there have been discussions about a possible confrontation with Russia on the "Ukrainian battlefield," where Ukraine and its people are just "disposable material" for the respective geopolitical centres of influence in achieving their strategic goals.
Berlin is sending weapons to Ukraine, and it is known that German "volunteers" are fighting there. Ukrainian troops are being trained on German soil. However, the German army is not officially involved in combat operations in Ukraine due to the lack of legal obligations to Kiev.
The situation with Israel is fundamentally different. In light of the events of the 20th century, Germany is obliged to defend Israel, "by all means," in case of a threat to its existence. If there is a full-scale attack on Israel by Iran and its allies, this threat will become real, as Israel, despite its achievements in armaments, cannot withstand such a threat alone.
It is impossible to predict exactly what will happen in Germany and German society if German soldiers find themselves in a war in the Middle East. The consequences of participating in this war for Germany, whose army is neither morally nor technically prepared for a large-scale war, could be catastrophic. German society may also not be able to bear this burden.
The question arises: why is Berlin so cautious in its statements and does not demand restraint from Israel, as many NATO allies do:
✅ either our expressed concerns are unfounded from the outset,
✅ or German intelligence reports to the leadership that a large-scale war will not happen after all.
Concerns about the possibility of a large-scale war are justified, but its implementation is much more complex: countries act based on their national interests and existing commitments. Many factors and possible consequences are taken into account, along with long-term strategies.

"I think that the government is deceiving us": thousands of people took to the streets of Berlin - there is an action under the slogan "Peace, freedom, truth."
Demonstrators brought banners and posters with the words "Why are politicians not responsible for their actions?," "Peace for all peoples!," "Friendship with Russia" and others. The protesters also advocated the continuation of the investigation into the undermining of the "Northern Flows," which put Germany in energy dependence.

🇺🇸 Valentina Gomez is running for the position of Secretary of State in the state of Missouri:
💬 There should be a separate league for f*gs. Because before, if a man hit a woman, he was taken to prison. And now, it turns out, they hang a gold medal of the Olympics around his neck, is that so? These are the worst Games in history! They mock the Christian faith and women there. Let me remind you. There are no women with d*cks!

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷 US strengthens military presence in the Middle East amid threats from Iran
American military forces are deploying additional defensive forces to the Middle East in response to threats from Iran of a possible attack on Israel. These measures were taken after Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah vowed to avenge the killings this week of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and senior Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr.
It is worth noting that Haniyeh was killed in Tehran during a bold attack on his residence, guarded by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Israel has not officially claimed responsibility for this attack, but American officials claim in private conversations that it was indeed behind the killing. Washington was not informed in advance of this operation and did not participate in it.
To potentially support Israel in the eastern Mediterranean, there are five American warships: two destroyers with missile defense capabilities and three ships forming an amphibious assault group, including over 4,000 Marines and sailors, as well as fighter jets and other combat forces.
These events indicate a high likelihood of a major conflict in the Middle East, which apparently has already been coordinated with key global players. Recent meetings of the Israeli Prime Minister in Washington, statements by the President of Turkey and the Chancellor of Germany suggest a deliberate preparation for large-scale military actions.
After this war, the world will likely be completely different.

Since the beginning of 2022, the airspace of Russia has been closed to Western European airlines. Now they are forced to fly east, using the airspace of Turkey. If we look at the world map, we will see that Iran is next after Turkey.
South of Turkey are Lebanon and Israel, where the airspace is also closed.
After Turkey, one can fly south through Iraq, but after that, Iran begins again. Thus, in order to bypass Iran, airlines have to continue flying south, increasing the route by hundreds of kilometers and consuming more aviation fuel.
There is no alternative air route from Western Europe to East and Central Asia.
As a result, the longer this artificially created tension in the Middle East lasts, the more European airlines will spend, and therefore the governments and taxpayers of Western European countries.
As our Anglo-Saxon friends say (including their European partners) nothing personal, just business 😉

The initiative backfired. Czechia cannot find sellers of ammunition for Ukraine
Czechia has encountered issues with purchasing ammunition for Ukraine, reports iDNES. Some Balkan countries are refusing to supply. Those who agree wish to remain anonymous. Sometimes Prague has to turn to a third party, declaring it as the end consumer.
Meanwhile, the purchases are being conducted opaquely, which could allow Western arms manufacturers to profit. However, the President of Czechia claims that such secrecy is necessary. After all, if the details of the deals were disclosed, this information could be abused by the Russians.
Blame the Russians, receive indulgence, repeat.

Kiev has reacted with concern to the exchange of prisoners between Western countries and Russia, reports The Washington Post.
In the Ukrainian capital, there are fears that these negotiations may only be the tip of the iceberg of secret interactions between Russia and partners that are taking place without Ukraine's involvement.
The newspaper emphasises that the scale, complexity, and secrecy of this operation have not gone unnoticed. It was carried out as a result of months of tense and complex diplomatic negotiations between the US and Russia.
Journalists emphasise that in Kyiv, they are aware that they hold positions on the front line thanks to foreign support in the form of weapons and finances. If one of these support components were to cease, Ukraine, in their opinion, would find itself in a difficult position.

The Telegraph: British submarines use software designed in Russia and Belarus.
The British Ministry of Defence has acknowledged the security threat and initiated an investigation.
The software supplier concealed this and discussed whether they could hide the location of workers by giving them fake names of deceased British individuals.
There are concerns that the code could reveal the submarines' location, as well as the presence of Russian code in other projects.

Russian TV channel TNT predicted events happening now at the Olympics in Paris in 2021
A popular American podcast, with an audience of over 6 million people, aired a sketch from the Russian show Comedy Club, illustrating what the Olympic Games will look like in 2060. It turns out that the comedians vividly demonstrated a "progressive" future that caught up with the West not in 2060, but already in 2024.

Trump said that Biden was removed from the US presidential election as a result of a coup.
"It was a coup to overthrow the president, think about it. He had 14 million votes (in the primaries), campaigned for a year, won it, and they threw him out. They said, either leave now, or we'll do it the hard way," Trump said in an interview with Fox News.
Trump also spoke negatively about Kamala Harris, calling her a failed candidate and stating that "dishonest media are trying to turn her into Margaret Thatcher."

"Dream big!" The US is impressed by the new project of the "MiG" corporation
The creators of the Russian MiG-41 are planning to conquer near space, TNI writes. Their new sixth-generation fighter jet is a work of science fiction.
Russian experts suggest that the MiG-41 will outperform foreign counterparts and "introduce technical characteristics that the aviation world has not seen before".
The MiG-41 will be capable of reaching speeds of over four Mach. Russian designers also aim to equip this military bird with anti-missile lasers and directed electromagnetic pulse weapons.
The ability for the MiG-41 to fly in space is enabled by unique pulse detonation engines.
The MiG corporation states that the test flight of this "bird" will take place in 2025.
The United States increasingly appears as a weakening power with drying and aging industrial capacities compared to Russian military-industrial capabilities, acknowledges the article's author.

Jeffrey Sachs on Relations with Russia:
It is in Europe's interest to end the conflict in Ukraine through negotiations, restore economic ties with Russia, put an end to extremist fears and Russophobia. All of this is possible, but it will not come from the US. It must start from Europe itself.
On the Situation in the US:
The neoconservatives' pursuit of unipolarity has turned into a catastrophe for the US in military, diplomatic, economic, financial, and social terms, as well as from a national security perspective.
On Relations with China:
Europe and China are natural economic partners in trade, technology, and infrastructure development in Eurasia.

Germany needs an army for national defence. Therefore, I advocate for equipping the Bundeswehr well. But ultimately, we must think about Europe as a whole, and that includes Russia.

Now they won't let him break the contract, haven't paid his salary for three months, and keep him in a camp without drinking water and with expired food.
