Το ανακαινισμένο Παλάτι των Δεσποτών στην Καστροπολιτεία του Μυστρά, με την μεγάλη Αίθουσα του Θρόνου στο ανώγειο του κτιρίου Καντακουζηνού. Σπάνια εκθέματα και ψηφιακές αναπαραστάσεις βοηθούν στην κατανόηση της λειτουργίας του βυζαντινού διοικητικού κέντρου του Μοριά. #byzantine

Οι πτήσεις αμερικανικών μεταγωγικών αεροσκαφών από τις ΗΠΑ προς τη Μ. Ανατολή είναι εξαιρετικά αυξημένες από χθες: συγκρίνονται μόνο με αυτές που προηγήθηκαν της επίθεσης στο Ιράν, στα τέλη Φεβρουαρίου.
Το συμπέρασμα που προκύπτει, είναι ότι η αμερικανική πολιτική ηγεσία κλίνει προς την απόφαση έναρξης χερσαίων επιχειρήσεων κατά του Ιράν. Δεν είναι πάντως βέβαιο ότι η απόφαση θα ληφθεί τελικά, καθώς θα ήταν ριψοκίνδυνη και με βαριές επιπτώσεις.

BREAKING: Donald Trump just posted the most revealing statement of the war. Not because of what it says about Iran. Because of what it says about the country that started it.

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT.”

Read the architecture of that sentence. The United States launched strikes that killed Khamenei and closed a strait that was open on February 27. The closure created a jet fuel crisis across Europe. And now the President is telling the countries suffering from the crisis his war created to either buy American fuel or send their own navies to reopen the waterway his campaign shut down. He started the fire. He is now selling the water. And he is mocking the neighbours for not helping him light the match.

“Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil!”

The hard part is done. But the strait is still closed. The IRGC still operates the toll booth. Nine vessels transit per day versus 138. A Kuwaiti supertanker burned off Dubai this morning. Ghalibaf, Iran’s parliament speaker, said it best from the other side: “The enemy that claimed it had destroyed our air force, navy and missile forces has now set its operational ambition to opening the Strait of Hormuz, a strait that was open before the Ramadan War began.” Trump and Ghalibaf are describing the same paradox from opposite ends of the same burning strait.

And now look at what “buy from the U.S., we have plenty” actually means. In January, the United States overthrew Maduro and seized operational control of Venezuelan oil exports. Nine hundred thousand barrels per day, redirected from China to American and European refiners under General License 52, with proceeds flowing to a US Treasury account. The US created alternative supply BEFORE launching the strikes that destroyed the existing supply route. It is now offering to sell that alternative supply to the allies whose energy it disrupted. The arsonist is the fire department. The toll booth operator is the rescue service.

The United Kingdom is in COBRA meetings today because of this. Petrol has risen to 152 pence per litre. Diesel is at 181 pence. Jet fuel prices have doubled. Household energy bills are forecast to rise £300 by July. The OECD has downgraded UK growth to 0.7 percent, the largest cut among G20 economies. Ten-year gilt yields have hit levels not seen since 2008. The Bank of England is frozen at 3.75 percent, unable to cut into an energy-driven inflation rebound. Starmer says he “won’t buckle” and will not send warships. Trump says the UK has “delayed courage.” The special relationship is now a transaction where one side sets the terms and the other absorbs the cost.

“The U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us.”

This is not a statement about Iran. This is a statement about the post-war order. The United States is explicitly telling its closest ally that the era of guaranteed security is over, that Hormuz is someone else’s problem, and that American fuel is available for purchase at market rates. The country that spent 80 years guaranteeing freedom of navigation through the world’s most important chokepoint is now telling its allies to buy their way out of the crisis or fight their own way through it.

The strait was open before the war. It is closed now. And the country that closed it is selling jet fuel to the countries that cannot get any.

That is the 2026 world order in one Truth Social post.

@h_doukas Μία αναζήτηση πχ να κάνετε με "from:h_doukas since:2023-10-06  until:2023-10-22".

Αλλά τότε είχατε προεκλογικό αγώνα μάλλον, με επιλεκτική ευαισθησία.
