The Missing Equilibrium

In your darkest hour, your true friends will show themselves. A Strategic Pause: Iran’s Ceasefire and the Road Ahead If sustained, the current ceasefire offers Iran a critical window to regroup and prepare for the complex geopolitical and security challenges ahead. While none of these challenges are insurmountable, they demand urgent and strategic attention—beginning with internal security. Intelligence and Internal Sabotage: The Immediate Concern One of the most alarming takeaways from the initial hours of the conflict was the intelligence failure. Indications of internal sabotage severely compromised Iran’s ability to deliver an immediate and coordinated response. In many countries, such a breach could have led to a breakdown. Yet, Iran's resilience was unmistakable—its subsequent calibrated response underscored both political composure and military precision, establishing Iran as a decisive actor in this round of escalation. Priority One: Clean House The foremost ...

So the another set of sanctions has been put on Russia, the moment Donald Trump landed back in Washington. Some saw a glimmer of hope of relations improving a pointless but still cordial Putin-Trump summit. Trump described the Summit as a grand success even though the man standing next to him, Putin looked clueless about the agenda of the summit. It was more or less about the handshake and it was all about one man, Donald Trump. It was his way of showing to the World and his supporters that he was still in charge.

There has been a silent build up of tension in the Eastern Ukranian Provinces which fought for independence against the Kiev backed right win forces and security forces. Two summers back it was more or less settled with Eastern Ukranian rebel forces emerging victorious in holding off the Kiev army. But despite that many experts believe there has been a huge build up by Kiev backed forces in restarting the conflict aptly supported or prompted by the Trump administration. We have earlier discussed how Trump could be propping the Kiev for another war with Russia backed rebels ; may be this time directly with Russia.

Vladimir Putin will be remembered always as the architect of the Modern Russia and the True Leader of it's people. From the misery and destruction of the 90s, Russia under Putin has once again re-emerged as the true World Super Power. Despite all his successes, his handling of the relationship with West has been quite naive. It seems Russia especially under Putin has been operating under a lot of assumptions which honestly is based on fantasy rather than realism for most of it's part. We have the likes of Stephen Cohen and Paul Craig Roberts, two renowned Russia matter experts constantly reminding us about this disparity between the wish and reality. May be Paul Craig Roberts may seem a bit more outspoken with his views on 'How America treats Russia and How Russia should respond'! But his basic premise of argument has been constantly proven right as we are seeing in the continuous deterioration of Russia - US relationship.

'A Cornered fool with a Nuclear Button is the Most Dangerous Person in the World'; and that sums up Donald Trump President precisely. His twitter reply to North Korean President shows his arrogance, his lack of understanding of anything and proves once again that he is simply a man who is in love with oneself. The North Korean situation has shown every sign of getting escalated and is just being contained; this could erupt back again and everyone from European Union, Russia, China etc. is dead worried of the same. Let get this straight, if Trump attacks North Korea , Kim will nuke both Japan and South Korea. He has no reason not to do it. And that would be a great prospect from the people of Japan and South Korea.

Catalonia cannot obtain Freedom without destroying Spanish Economy and "Bank Runs" could be the path to Freedom! Catalonia, that's a term which worries the European think tanks at the moment the most. It appears to have subsidized for some time with both the Antagonist and the Protagonist looking totally confused about what to do! But then when fools rule, there won't be any shortage for entertainment. So we are fully ready for another episode of Catalonian Revolt. The situation calls for calmer heads who could lead the country to a negotiated settlement; but those kind of people are no longer there in politics. Instead what we have is leaders who think only about their goals and seldom think about the greater good. In that way, the Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy and Catalonian leader Carles Puigdemont are brothers in arms. They are both short sighted, selfish and foolish to the core.

Many among the alternative media has already called the first round of French Presidential election as a watershed moment in the history of French Politics and to an extent European politics. With Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen making it to the second round, this election has been the one which tore apart the traditional political system that has governed France for years. This result exemplifies how much the main stream political parties have moved away from the common man and it's revolt by the masses against them. Even though the second round is to be held in May 7th, the result seems to be a foregone conclusion. The current opinion polls are in favour of Marcon, who leads by more than 30%. That's too much to make up for Marine Le Pen in a span of two weeks.
