The Iran War is entering a new phase.
The first phase was the kinetic war itself.
This ended in a comprehensive defeat for the US and Donald Trump's acceptance of Iran's 10-point plan (which included, per @WSJ, "Continuation of Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz," the "Acceptance that Iran can enrich uranium for its nuclear program" and "Compensation payment to Iran for war damage" among other goodies) as the basis of negotiations.
The second phase was the uneasy ceasefire, which @policytensor referred to as 'armed bargaining', where the US attempted to gain via negotiations and a blockade what it had failed to achieve by armed force.
It appears we are on the brink of a third phase in which the US attempts to overturn the post-bellum status quo. Iran, on the other hand, is signaling the unacceptability of this through its strikes on US bases in Kuwait and Bahrain: it is demonstrating its escalation dominance and attempting to reestablish deterrence.
It is unlikely that the US will succeed: it has been revealed to have no solution for Iran's ability to fire missiles or drones, and until it can suppress them, it cannot reopen the Strait for traffic or protect its allies in the region. It is unlikely to have developed such a solution in the last few weeks.
Therefore, the same military-strategic realities will reimpose themselves during a renewed exchange of fire. In the meantime, the US continues to run down its magazine and the world inches closer to economic catastrophe.
The problem is that Iran's bottom line (and certainly the 10-point plan that Trump already accepted as the basis of negotiations) is politically unacceptable in Washington. Thus, it might take more economic pain, and the final realisation that an armed solution is unavailable, to force it down. That economic pain will be global, and will likely be felt by the US only AFTER it is felt in Europe and in Asia ex-China (which has significant protections).
We will cover this in greater depth in next week's Multipolarity Brief. Link next post.
Israel killed his mother and father.
Because of Israel, his leg was amputated.
Because of Israel, his left hand is now also at risk of amputation.
Don’t stop talking about Gaza.
Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir said:
"We will not allow a single gram of aid into the Gaza Strip until its people kneel and beg. Gaza must be leveled to the ground. There is no such thing as innocent people."
Netanyahu: "Did the Nazis politely ask Jews to leave? Did they say 'Please go'? 'Step out so we can move in'? Of course not."
By saying this, he confessed with his own mouth — he is the Nazi now. 🔥🇮🇱🎙️💀
Perfect projection. 😈🎭
There has never been a war in history where 80% of the country has been destroyed, 100% of the population displaced, and 50% of the deaths children.
Call it what it is: GENOCIDE.
The Jews own the porn business.
The Jews push the LGBTQ shit.
The Jews are ALL in the Epstein files.
The Jews “holy” book allows pedophilia.
The Jews suck infant penises.
HOW ARE WE STILL DEBATING WHO THE FUCKING PERVERTS ARE THAT ARE DEMORALIZING OUR WORLD?!?!?!
HOLY CRAP 🚨
Hidden camera in London catches senior rabbi telling abuse victims to stay silent and never call the police.

🚨Iranian media expose the hidden truth:
'ISIS slaughtered every country in the Middle East... but it never touched a hair on Israel. Why?'
Because ISIS is an Israeli-made product par excellence. Their dirty weapon to strike resistance and tarnish the image of Islam. 🇮🇷☠️🔥
Same mentality. Same goals. Same rhetoric. The only difference is the flags.
Israel creates monsters... then cries that it is the only one that understands the Middle East. 💀🇮🇱"
British woman on BBC:
"The oppression didn't start on October 7."
"You say 'Israel has the right to defend itself' — but what about Palestine, whose land was taken? Didn't it have the right to defend itself?"
"You speak of hostages. What about the Palestinian children under rubble — or in prisons? They are hostages too." 🇬🇧🎙️🔥🇮🇱🇵🇸💔
American citizens who criticize Jews or Israel will now be monitored by the FBI.
"We will monitor social media and check your bank accounts. I have 40 analysts working 24/7, 7 days a week"
⚡️BREAKING
Iran's Supreme Leader's Top Military Advisor to CNN:
"If the War continues and the Naval Blockade is not lifted we will drag the war to the Indian Ocean, the Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Mediterranean Sea
We will give another dimension to the war by attacking these other American bases that we have been attacking so far"
🔥🇮🇷 “The ball is in Trump’s court” — Iran demands frozen $24 billion BACK, slams door on meeting
In a rare interview, Mohsen Rezaei, top military adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, told CNN the brutal reality for the US: return the stolen money, back down, or face a much wider war.
💬 “The negotiations are at a deadlock and Trump must break this deadlock… This is our own money, not America's money.”
Rezaei framed it as a "test of trust" for a US president who famously torched the 2015 nuclear agreement and is now desperately trying to save face.
Trump recently pulled a 180 on his comments about the Supreme Leader, telling reporters he would be "honored" to meet Khamenei. Rezaei shut that delusional fantasy down instantly.
💬 “This will not happen.”
And if the US decides to resume its failed aggression?
Rezaei warned Iran will drag the war far beyond the Persian Gulf — expanding strikes to US bases in the Indian Ocean, the Bab al-Mandab Strait, the Red Sea, and the Mediterranean.
Iran calls this its first true victory in 47 years. Demented Don just calls it "the Art of the Deal."
I don’t think many Kenyans have fully realized it yet, but we are living through one of the darkest periods in our nation's history. A time that arguably rivals only the British colonial era.
