the situation in the middle east is explosive, we need to be prepared for any scenario. this was discussed in an exclusive interview with our tv channel. in bangladesh, after the dissolution of parliament and the transfer of power into the hands of the military, a head of the interim government. he is the nobel peace prize laureate, economist and banker muhammad yunus. the situation in the country is still far from stabilizing; according to media reports, 29 members of the former prime minister's party were killed in one night by protesters. there are also reports of mass murders and arson of hindu homes. even cars were subjected to pogroms. experts suggest that one of the goals of this raid was to destroy the gas metering station in the city of sudzhi to stop russian gas exports. in the russian the mitataku was called another terrorist act directed against the civilian population. the facts of the attack will be investigated by the investigative committee of russia. emergency in western germany in the settlement of kröv a hotel collapsed, the supports of one of the floo

we want peace. further more, we need a peaceful middle east so we can pivot to east asia, right? from american point of view, the most serious threat on the planet is china, the united states has to contain china, we have to pivot to asia, we can't pivot to asia because we're pin down in... traine and now we're pin down in the middle east. this is not good. we want for sure to settle this right, to have a situation like the one that existed before october 7th. remember jake sullamon said few weeks before october 7th, we haven't seen the middle east this peaceful for a long time and he was very happy about that and it made perfect sense from an american point of view. but that went away very quickly on october 7th, so we want peace. second point is we also care greatly about having friendly relations with as many states in the middle east as possible. why is that the case? the russians are already there, number one, and two, the chinese are beginning to move in. for all the older dogs, i noticed there a number of older dogs. in the audience, we all remember back in the day, right,

well, we have a map of the middle east before our eyes. we are talking about whether the threat has passed. war, how would you answer this question? well, i think that in general the situation, unfortunately, is now in the middle east, which historically already, yes , one can say that historically, is characterized by increased conflict potential, has a tendency to escalate, unfortunately, we see multiple conflicts that remain in the region, and, what is very important, their mutual dependence, mutual influence is growing. well, take for example the israeli-palestinian conflict, a long-standing one, yes, at the same time the confrontation between the west and the yemeni houthis allied with oran, this is actually a military-political the confrontation between israel and iran, yes, well, for now it fits into the mainstream of the paradigm of strategic patience on the part of tehran , which in general in fact means a proxy war using paramilitary formations allied to itself in the zone of the so-called shiite crescent, yes, but this term was

we meet here at the critical moment for the middle east. we are extremely concerned that the region is closer than ever to a large-scale conflict that will be difficult to contain. the events of the past few days which have led to this meeting today have shown how fragile the situation is. japan strongly condemns the rocket attack on july 27 that killed 12 children and youth and wounded many others in the golan heights. the targeting of innocent civilians is absolutely unacceptable. we are aware of the announcement by the government of israel about the air strikes in beirut yesterday and the killing of hamas leader ismail haniyeh. japan is closely following the event with great concern and strongly urges all parties to de-escalate the situation. we fear the region is at the brink of all-out war. the international community should make all diplomatic efforts to avert this and japan , stands ready to do so in cooperation. let us not forget that the conflict began with the heinous october 7 attack on israel, and taking of hostages by hamas and

uh, first of all, it's in our interest to have peace in the middle east. first of all, we've been fighting so many wars, the american public is just sick of all these wars. the last thing we want are more wars in the middle east, oh my god, a war against iran. this is the last thing people want, right? we want peace. furthermore, we need a peaceful middle east so we can pivot to east asia, right? from the american point of view, the most serious threat on the planet is china. the united states has to contain china, we have to pivot to asia. we can't pivot to asia, because we're pin down in ukraine and now we're pin down in the middle east. this is not good. we want for sure to settle this one, right, to have a... situation like the one that existed before october 7th, remember jake sullivan said few weeks before october 7th, we haven't seen the middle east this peaceful for a long time, and he was very happy about that, and it made perfect sense from an american point of view, but that went away very quickly on october 7th, so we want peace. second point i

. _ middle east? it's certainly possible, and _ middle east?re were reports earlier today that supposedly russia might be transferring advanced weaponry to iran. those reports are very vague and they were in advance can be lots of different things, but the fact of the matter is the bigger story here is that one way or the other, russia's strategic convergence with iran is going to continue, along with russia continuing to empower iranian proxies in the region. the continuing to empower iranian proxies in the region. the west will be watching — proxies in the region. the west will be watching this _ proxies in the region. the west will be watching this very _ proxies in the region. the west will be watching this very closely - proxies in the region. the west will be watching this very closely and i i be watching this very closely and i just wonder what you think their strategy might be if they are looking at countering the influence of moscow this time when it comes to the middle east. how will they go about that? the the middle east. how will t

it is possibility here of a broader war in the middle east?— the middle east?eal. the middle east? it is absolutely very real. this _ the middle east? it is absolutely very real. this is, _ the middle east? it is absolutely very real. this is, again, - the middle east? it is absolutely| very real. this is, again, another point of why it is so important to come to closure now. the iranians certainly would argue that it is their right and responsibility to respond to an assassination on their land, a guest, as it were, the political leader of hamas, you know, it was embarrassing and they have said that they won't respond if a ceasefire is reached. so this delay we have seen over this last week or week—and—a—half is again trying to give space for a ceasefire. there is every reason to hope, if not expect that, if the ceasefire is reached, that, if the ceasefire is reached, that many of the conflict points that many of the conflict points that are currently raging and endangering the entire region could have the temperature lowered. right. former us ambassador _ hav

well, we have a map of the middle east before our eyes. israel and iran, yes, well, so far it fits into the mainstream of the paradigm of strategic patience on the part of tehran, which in general in fact actually means a proxy war using militarized. allied to itself in the zone of the so-called shiite crescent, yes, but this term was introduced into circulation by the arabs in their time, this is actually, yes, countries such as iran itself, then iraq, syria, lebanon with access to the border with israel, so all these conflicts they have a tendency not just to escalate, yes, but to an increase in interdependence, plus there are also extra-regional conflicts, in general. connected yes, so here, unfortunately, we cannot say that there are no risks of a major conflict, a major war. igor aleksandrovich, i would also like to discuss with you the new leader of iran, the new president of iran, masoud, we have prepared a small reference, let's look at it and then discuss it in more detail. masoud pesishkian, the president of iran, who won the ear

has the threat of a major war in the middle east passed in the near future? karina aleksandrovna, how would you answer this question? you see, i would not take on such a thankless task as predicting such moments, because even if international mediators or the forces representing the parties agree on something, an excess of the performers is possible, the situation goes into a tailspin, therefore this risk remains from my point of view. that the threat remains a high degree of uncertainty, the whole point is that the human factor can intervene, well, and political contingency, we see that benjamin netanyahu wants to drag the united states of america into this conflict in every possible way, and very often he acts not only against the interests of the rest of the world, but also against the interests of the united states, it may well turn out that the states may be dragged into this conflict against their will. nikolai petrovich, can we say with certainty that the threat has passed? i think, unfortunately, we can say with certainty that the threat has not passe

wars, the last thing we want are more wars in the middle east, oh my god, a war against iran, this isthing people want, we want peace, further more, we need a peaceful middle east so we can pivot east asia, right, from american point of view, the most serious threat on the planet is china, the united states has to contain china. we have to pivot to asia, we can't pivot to asia cuz we're pin down in ukraine and now we're pin down in the middle east, this is not good, we want for sure to settle this one, right, to have a situation like the one that existed before october 7th, remember jake sullivan said few weeks before october 7th, we haven't seen the middle east this peaceful for a long time and he was... very happy about that, and it made perfect sense from an american point of view, but that went away very quickly on october 7th, so we want peace. second point is, we also care greatly about having friendly relations with as many states in the middle east as possible. why is that the case? the russians are already there, number one, and two, the chinese are beginning. to move in for

stop the bloodshed in gaza and save the middle east from a global war.h hopes are pinned today by the arab media on the meeting of the presidents of russia and palestine, emphasizing the special role of our country. mahmoud abas' visit to russia is of particular importance, given russia's influence and status in the world, since it is a superpower, a permanent member of the un security council and one of the countries with significant political weight on the world stage. let's say. the situation on the lebanese-israeli border is aggravating during the day. the probability of a full-scale war between hezbollah and tel aviv is now as high as never. cypriot authorities say they have already prepared the island for a possible influx of refugees from lebanon and israel, setting up several temporary camps for internally displaced people. and it appears that only diplomacy can now save the region from imminent disaster. a senior iranian official said that iran , along with allies such as hezbollah, would launch a direct attack if negotiations in the sector. so

we'll come back to the middle east in just a minute, but let me take you to washington. do you think joe biden has any idea that any of this is happening or that we can credibly believe that laughing gas harris is in any sense a war leader preparing as commander in chief, acting commander in chief. to command the one-third of the entire american navy which is now in the persian gulf or in the eastern mediterranean uh who's running the show from the american point of view do you think? i think watching the americans uh media and uh intellectual and strategic study centers, i don't think joe biden is aware what... is happening in his room or around him, therefore who is leading the us today, it's the establishment, we have secretary of state, we have secretary of defense and we have team of people who are leading america, this is why we see very weak approach from america toward the middle east and we see very weak approach from america toward china instead of attacking china and provoking china into economic war that can spread and can have different consequences like chi

the two leaders reiterated their call for an immediate cease-fire in the middle east.of other things on the table as well, not least, sir keir starmer's focus on resetting relations with the european union. yesterday, while he was in berlin, he announced plans for a new treaty setting out closer ties with germany. some on the right here have questioned whether he is on picking brexit. in france he said the operative word is reset not reverse. that's been in a good friend of the program suzanne lynch in brussels of the global playbook author and associate editor of politico. nice to see you. thanks for coming on. do you think the french are prepared to go as far as the germans seemed to go yesterday? >> well, i think there was definitely less detail in what we are hearing from parents this evening after the meeting between sir keir starmer and emmanuel macron. we heard a lot about strengthening and broadening the relationship between france and britain. but, not much detail. in germany yesterday we had that a bit more. we had a joint press conference between olaf scholz

monday, super name was also witnessed in asia, australia, the middle east and the americas. but if you missed this one, don't despair. the next system it will be upon us all next month and that's you all up to date, but stay with us up next documentary and looks at nato and had the alliance is ready to defend itself and how to handle. thanks for watching the on the long voyage through the ocean and the how well with the cost for a long time, they had to be a humans on that journey. now the trenches have become very protective of whales until the results of the ocean conservation start september full dw, the nato . the north atlantic treaty organization was formed to 75 years ago.

we'll come back to the middle east and just a minute, but let me take you to washington. do you think joe biden has any idea that any of this is happening or that we can credibly believe that laughing gass harris is in any sense a war? leader preparing uh as commander in chief, acting commander in chief to command the one/third of the entire american navy which is now in the persian gulf or in the eastern mediterranean, who's running the show from the american point of view, do you think? i think watching the americans media and... intellectual and strategic study centers, i don't think joe biden is aware what is happening in his room or around him, therefore who is leading the u.s. today, it's the establishment, we have secretary of state, we have secretary of defense, and we have team of people who are leading america, this is why we see very weak approach from america toward the middle east, and we see very weak approach from america toward china, instead of attacking china and provoking china into economic war that can spread and can have different consequences like c

♪ >> tension in the middle east, following the killing of the political leader of hamas.ng israel. what will his death mean for cease-fire talks? the killing came hours after the idf hit back at has bella -- hezbollah in beirut. concerns are growing of a wider regional conflict. the bbc is shocked by the behavior of hugh edwards. police officers have been given time to continue questioning a 17-year-old boy arrested in the killing of three girls at a summer holiday dance class. police say there will be more arrests. benjamin netanyahu says his country has challenging days ahead but is prepared for all scenarios. he said israel dealt a crushing blow to its enemies. the deaths are driving fears of escalation of conflict. haniyah was in the iranian capital sunday. he was killed when the building he was staying in was struck by a missile around 2 a.m. local time, according to iranian state media. israel claimed responsibility for the death of a senior commander of hezbollah. he was killed in an airstrike in beirut. his body has been recovered. here's what mr. netanyahu said l

middle east, there will be regime change everywhere, there will be war. and revolution everywhere, puppet presidents and corrupt kings will be toppling in front of our eyes and the entire pattern of relationships in the arab middle east will change and change forever, and of course the risk of russia and china entering that all-out war to defend the iran with which... they have a special security agreement, now is very real one, and that turns it from a middle east war into world war ii, and we must hope that even the infebled brain of camela harris and the absent brain of joe biden will try to stop that from happening. alas, that's the end of the show, spread it, it's been a terrific show this evening. please share it with all of your friends and come back next week at the same time in the same place. هذا اتحكم فيه وهو نازل هذا الاع يا محمود. his response to the recent zionist aggression on the lebanese capital, will it spark an all-out war with beirot or remain a series of targeted strikes? we'll examine. zinanis israel's demand for measured response from hezbulah and whether such an ap

this is why we see very weak approach from america toward the middle east. "and we see very weak approach from america toward china, instead of attacking china and provoking china into economic war that can spread and can have different consequences like china in the philippines, for example china today is challenging the americans in the philippine, therefore we see china is not sitting and watching and waiting for the american to surround it. this is where we see joe biden going in. to a different wars without an end, mean to be fair, since the americans went to war to vietnam and to afghanistan and to iraq and to libya and to syria, they failed in all these wars, so even with someone who is clever and intelligent in the white house, is the end game and the result is more or less the same, having someone like joe biden who is not aware all the time of his surrounding, he said not aware of how to lead the the world, this is why camilla harris did not show any political maturity during the ruling of joe biden as his vice president and certainly did not demon

a professor of middle east studies at princeton university. and of course, former us ambassador to egypt and israel daniel karcher. thank you so much for joining us. a my pleasure, steve. good to talk to you. so what's the bottom line? one really has to wonder what the american game plan in the middle east is. if it's just to exit the region in the fog of conflict, blaming with contraction of american power in the world on ungrateful allies and fanatical rivals. well that's one thing. but if the us is actually working to maintain its power and influence to generate long term regional stability in a very complex region, which it says it wants that america is seriously failing. the killing by israel, of more than 40000 palestinians, mostly women and children who are complete innocence. in this conflict, as are most of the men will drive hate and instability for another generation. at least, israel thinks it can make strategic choices for the us. but it's actually whitening and deepening the problem. this conflict as far from over. and it could r

"i'm guessing that they will not, because if there is an all-out war right across the middle east, the losers will not just be israel and the united states, but all of america's key allies in the middle east, there will be regime change everywhere, there will be war and revolution everywhere, puppet presidents and corrupt kings. will be toppling in front of our eyes and the entire pattern of relationships in the arab middle east will change and change forever, and of course the risk of russia and china entering the all-out war to defend the iran with which they have a special security agreement. now is a... very real one, and that turns it from a middle east war into world war ii, and we must hope that even the infebled brain of camela harris and the absent brain of joe biden will try to stop that from happening. alas, that's the end of the show, spread it. it's been a terrific show this evening. please share it with all of your friends and come back next week at the same time. in the same place. يلا وهي يلا هي يلا وهي يلا هي يما وهي يابا هي شبابك يا عدابه هي شباب جدام الانتقام الانتقا

you know, as well as i do, the middle east has been a power cag for a long time. what do these 2 killings at the top of his below and tomas what do they mean for the risk of it all? well wider we're breaking. yeah. well them send you having the i think that the as the describe the thing right to so we owned advantage of uh, severe escalation and even the region of the war i think goes to events of putting us closer and closer as off only those to advance by the sweats coming out from taylor, i'm and tomorrow we're here from the secretary general. first on this run up, talking about that as well. the nice thing is that we are, it's something it won't be contained in a way that maybe some intervene bind to us or the original superpower. and i think that the escalation is almost imminent. and i see that uh, we are close as we have a beam direct last between the east rather because by law and definitely between that is where any one of the places that you've ever been, what needs to happen immediately to pull both sides back from the brink, in your opinion, this assoc

then we'll go to the next topic, we continue to follow the middle east.ran-israel tehran hezbollah promised an inevitable response to the israeli shelling and death of ismail khani. in tel aviv they are talking about the possibility of a preemptive strike on iran. many leaders of the persian gulf countries are discussing israel's actions, although they are calling on iran to exercise restraint. the israeli leadership has declared that it is ready for an attack from iran. so that 's the situation. what's here? how far can it go, given that we have already seen several phases, oleg sergeyevich, well, we need to go to the origins, who started all this, who blew up the middle east, how did it all start, it didn't start today, not yesterday, not the day before yesterday, from the moment when the us, great britain, the west collectively decided that they could rule the middle east, manage its resources, they began to pit shiites, sunnis against each other, who unleashed these wars between shiites and sunnis, allavis, kurds, who promised their own state, who inv

we want peace, further more, we need a peaceful middle east so we can pivot east asia, right? from american point of view, the most serious threat on the planet is china, the united states has to contain china, we have to pivot to asia, we can't pivot to asia buse we're pin down in ukraine and now we're pin down in the middle east, this is not good. want for sure to settle this one, right? to have a situation like the one that existed before october 7th. remember jake sullivan said few weeks before october 7th, we haven't seen the middle east this peaceful for a long time, and he was very happy about that, and it made perfect sense from an american point of view, but that went away very quickly on october 7th, so we want peace. second point is, "we also care greatly about having friendly relations with as many states in the middle east as possible. why is that the case? the russians are already there, number one, and two, the chinese are beginning to move in. for all the older dogs, i noticed there a number of older dogs in the audience. we all remember back in the day, right,

more, we need a peaceful middle east so we can pivot east asia, right, from american point of view, the most serious threat on the planet is china, the united states has to contain china, we have to pivot to asia, we can't... pivot to asia because we're pin down in ukraine and now we're pin down in the middle east. this is not good. we want for sure to settle this one, right? to have a situation like the one that existed before october 7th. remember jake sullivan said few weeks before october 7th, we haven't seen the middle east this peaceful for a long time and he was very happy about that. and it made perfect. sense from an american point of view, but that went away very quickly on october 7th, so we want peace. second point is, we also care greatly about having friendly relations with as many states in the middle east as possible. why is that the case? the russians are already there, number one, and two, the chinese are beginning to move in for all the older dogs. i noticed there a number of older dogs in the audience. we all remember back in the day, right, when the us and the s

i think it represents a colossal failure of us middle east policy.ecall when biden came into power, he wanted to "reduce the american foot print in the middle east". he pulled out of afghanistan, he wanted to focus on china and other more important global challenges, but as a direct result of the failure of us middle east policy, specifically the refusal or inability of the united states to put constraints on israel to rein it in, to establish redlines, it's being dragged back into the middle east and of course it's going to be american troops and perhaps even american citizens that are going to pay the price so this makes no sense from american national security perspective. and so it remains to be seen exactly how this is going to play out but i think the redeployment of forces by the united states into the region is essentially there to protect israel, does not bode well for stated american policy in the region and it recalls other moments — and i'm thinking of course about the iraq war when the united states entered this region hoping that it wou

well, we have a map of the middle east before our eyes. we are talking about whether the threat of a major war has passed. how would you answer this question? well, i think that in general the situation, unfortunately, now in the middle east, which historically has already, yes, we can say that historically, is characterized by increased conflict potential, has a tendency to escalation, unfortunately, we see multiple conflicts that remain in the region, and, what is very important, their mutual conditionality, mutual influence is growing, well, take for example. the conflict between the west and the yemeni usites, allied with iran, this is a long-standing, yes, at the same time, the confrontation , in fact, the military-political confrontation between israel and iran, yes, well, for now it fits into the mainstream of the paradigm of strategic patience on the part of tehran, which in general in fact actually means a proxy war using paramilitary formations allied to themselves in the zone of the so-called shiite crescent, yes, but this term

east. >> at a time of significant tension in the middle east the united states navy has a significantesence there. is it a strong enough deterrent as iran considers attacking israel? >> the usa be is certainly the strongest navy, the most powerful navy in the world. building a navy that out rivals us that is large or than ours, but we are still an incredibly important deterrent. not just our navy ships it is other navy assets that these regimes know full well we have in the region as well. it is one piece of deterrent. the war with the uzis has not stopped. we have with a weekly basis them shooting sophisticated drones and ballistic missiles at navy strips. we are emptying our tea lamps from our storage facilities in order to hit back to protect u.s. navy ships. the u.s. navy is seeing in the sitcom theater more action. our ships are seeing more action today in the middle east and the u.s. navy has seen since world war ii. we have to understand the scale and precedents of what is happening to our u.s. navy and the middle east right now. >> trying to figure out what vice president harr

you know, senator, i'm watching what's going on in the middle east it.n in the middlmiddle east. israel is surrounded by iranian surrogates and the secretary of state says iran will have the material it needs to build a nuclear weapon. and we are withholding weapons from israel while we are pouring tens of billions of into iran and on and on and on can you please explain to me the other insanity of this administration it comes to an alley like israel? >> the biden/harris policy in the middle east is as explicit without a successful policy it looks like with president trump president trump backed israel at her other allies in the regent to the hilt with no daylight but we sought peace and stability in the middle east. we've had peace agreements abraham accords between israel and several arab nations joe biden and kamala harris for three and half years have appeased iran at every turn tens of billions of dollars in sanctions relief which continue to this day. which has enabled iran to fuel its ring of fire around israel per terrorists groups like hezbollah

but our middle east correspondent, alexander belibov. alexander, hello, what is the situation in the region? yes, colleagues, hello, but the situation in the middle east. remains extremely tense, and forecasts regarding its normalization, at least in the near future, are disappointing, but first of all , the conflict in the gaza strip is flaring up with renewed vigor, and the arson of the cities and social facilities, civilian facilities of the palestinian enclave, which are not distinguished by their selectivity, here is one of such strikes, the most resonant, perhaps, in recent times happened last weekend at the ottabain school in gaza, the israeli air force fired three rockets, as a result, according to the palestinian health service, more than 100 people were killed, most of whom were women and children, more... 60 palestinian civilians were injured, but i will add that this was far from the only strike in the last few days by the israel defense forces on the gaza strip, a number of strikes were also recorded on refugee camps located

the us has not restricted its provocations against china to the middle east, of course. i was talking with some filipino friends just the other day. uh, there's very little doubt, just for your information, i spent the salad days of my life fighting to close the subic naval base, the clark air force base in the philippines, both of which... now reopened uh and filled with the us military personnel. there's no doubt is that that the philippines under marcos, there's a familiar name uh are being uh lined up to be the next uh the the next belligerant on us behalf against china, am i right? i think that that american conduct in the philippines of course has has been pretty pretty horrible for well over a century suppressing the the philippine independence movement in in 1898 to 1907 killing hundreds of thousands of people uh either in combat or in concentration. camps ruling the philippines as a colonial uh possession until after the second world war, and then maintaining this massive military presence there. there was a brief period uh after the fall of of the first marcos

then we move on to the next topic, we continue to monitor the middle east. iran-israel.ran hezbollah promised an inevitable response to the israeli shelling and the death of ismail khaniye. in tel aviv, they are talking about the possibility of a preemptive strike on iran. many leaders of the gulf states are discussing actions of israel, although they call on iran to exercise restraint. the israeli leadership has stated that it is ready for an attack from iran, so that's the situation. what is it here, how far can it go, considering that we have already observed several phases, oleg sergeyevich, well, we need to go to the origins, who started all this, who blew up the middle east, how it all started, it didn't start today, not yesterday, not the day before yesterday, from the moment when the us, great britain, the west collectively decided that they could rule the middle east, to manage their resources, they began to pit shiites, sunnis against each other, who started these wars between shiites and sunnis, allavis, kurds, who... promised the kurds their own state, who in

be studying the middle east, good health, mr.igor, thank you for finding time for us. greetings, mr. mykola, thank you for the invitation. well, i have a question, myself checking, not actually asking you, but checking myself: and i am convinced that there will not be a big... war, and i am convinced, despite all the newspapers that write, that the iran -israeli war is imminent, and already there by air force the eastern mediterranean sailed there, the americans and the rest of the world, everyone is nervous, but i am not, меня терзают смутные субнения, something does not seem to me that iran will dare, because my logic is very simple: iran cannot answer, but and lose even more. can't and that's why i wouldn't want to sit somewhere in tehran near now this chief muslim of theirs and and and and about what i would advise him about, i don't know, i can't advise him not to fight against the jews, if it is written in my constitution that there should be no israel at all, i can't, to say, let's fight, we'll lose , so what's next, and w

you know, senator, i'm watching what's going on in the middle east it.east. israel is surrounded by iranian surrogates and the secretary of state says iran will have the material it needs to build a nuclear weapon. and we are withholding weapons from israel while we are pouring tens of billions of into iran and on and on and on can you please explain to me the other insanity of this administration it comes to an alley like israel? >> the biden/harris policy in the middle east is as explicit without a successful policy it looks like with president trump president trump backed israel at her other allies in the regent to the hilt with no daylight but we sought peace and stability in the middle east. we've had peace agreements abraham accords between israel and several arab nations joe biden and kamala harris for three and half years have appeased iran at every turn tens of billions of dollars in sanctions relief which continue to this day. which has enabled iran to fuel its ring of fire around israel per terrorists groups like hezbollah to the north come ha

east. shoulds wrote that the spiral of violence in the middle east must be broken. now any alternative entails unforeseen risk for the countries in the region, and the people in it contained saying, and my phone call with a rainy and presidents, i urge that everything be done to avoid further military escalation. all righty. i spoke with ben um ben ton of blue from the foundation for the defense of democracies and asked him when he expects iran to retaliate against israel. that really seems to be the question of the hour. really. we see the question of the past 10 to 11 days. there is no doubt in my mind that both these womic republic of iran, which is the patron, as well as some elements. and this proxy network like lebanese, has bullet, are benefiting from the fear in the uncertainty. and the doubts caused by that potential delay or dragging out of this response. but i still do see this as a matter of when and not if, particularly given that on april 13th and april 14th, the regime launched a historic, 1st direct, overt, and kinetic attack mironda in territory aga

and is even spoken of a kind of middle east nato to confront iran. but remember that as netanyahu is engaged in that rhetoric, what we have on the ground is the emergence of the access of resistance, which is iran, onstar ally, the who these in yemen. the islamic resistance in iraq has blah from us palestinian islamic jihad, they have a coordinated operation center. they are essentially the answer to the kind of alliance that 1st trump now by and have tried to push through with netanyahu. and i think it's a recipe for it for extraordinary escalation and violence in war and the region. nothing. yeah. just a month before the october 7th, the tax. in fact that it is just 2 weeks before it was speaking of the un and he held up a map of the middle east and palestine didn't exist on it. and he, so it said, oh, this is the great, he sort of compared it to, you know, this great thruway that was going to connect asia in the middle east with europe. and that israel is the key player. and that at the center of it is an alliance against iran. the us is playing w

east, israel is preparing for a strike from iran and hezbollah in response for the destruction of the head of the hamas political bureau, ismail haniyeh, in tehran. here is a rather alarming information picture on kanoi. hezbollah fired dozens of missiles at northern israel. last night tsahal hezbol. the answer to this is something we can do, of course, this did not happen, and iran does not want to get involved in a full-scale military conflict in the region, everyone understands this, including even the fierce enemies of iran, let’s say, the united states of america, because we see that washington through various, let’s say so, regional players, through regional players and regional actors , are trying to convey information that, let’s not react so harshly, let’s not... and so on, but it’s worth noting that compared to last time iran refused the mediation assistance of qatar and turkey, in addition, it is worth noting that today it was announced that an attack would be prepared in the near future, and for this purpose , allegedly in one of the meetings through its proxy groups and t
