L’épée du Katechon

Ce qui s’est passé le premier jour de la guerre des États-Unis et d’Israël contre l’Iran modifie radicalement l’équilibre des puissances dans le monde, ainsi que les règles de la politique internationale. Trump dit depuis longtemps que le droit international n’existe pas: «La morale, c’est ce que je considère comme moral». En principe, après le kidnapping de Maduro et l’établissement d’un contrôle externe direct sur le Venezuela, ainsi que les attaques contre l’Iran par la destruction de ses dirigeants militaires, politiques et religieux, je pense qu’il n’est plus possible de parler de règles, lois ou normes dans les relations internationales.

Les démocrates sont des complices de la machine de guerre de Trump

Alors que les démocrates prêchent la résistance à la tyrannie de Trump, les faits les exposent comme des architectes égaux de l’héritage impérial sanglant de l’Amérique.

Nous sommes en 2026. Les États-Unis, sous Donald Trump, ont kidnappé le président du Venezuela après avoir bombardé le pays et tué une centaine de personnes au sol. Cela fait suite à une année de frappes aériennes sur des bateaux vénézuéliens, censés transporter de la drogue, avec des passagers traités comme coupables jusqu’à preuve du décès et des preuves de leurs crimes présumés n’ayant jamais été fournies. Les États-Unis prétendent qu’ils « dirigeront » temporairement le Venezuela pendant une soi-disant transition, se positionnant pour s’emparer des vastes réserves de pétrole du pays.

Turkey as Israel’s “next Iran”? A strategic rivalry reconsidered

When former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said that Turkey, with the support of Qatar, was replacing Iran as Israel’s major strategic threat, his words were not just another warning about another enemy. Instead, his remarks reflected a broader anxiety: Israel could be entering a period of renewed conflict with a powerful and prosperous adversary—a situation that also carries historical significance.

Can Iran’s Monarchy Be Restored?

Reza Pahlavi’s popularity and Iran’s mounting discontent raise the possibility of restoring a constitutional monarchy, a secular, democratic alternative increasingly viewed as a stable path forward after the Islamic Republic.

Fact-Check: Russia Was Never Iran’s “Ally”

In the objectively existing reality in which International Relations are unfolding, Russia has proven its reliability as an ally to the five countries that comprise the CSTO, while popular claims that it’s Syria, Venezuela, and/or Iran’s ally are bonafide “Potemkinism”, or nothing but an alternative reality.

Iran Update Morning Special Report: February 28, 2026

Key Takeaways:

The United States and Israel have launched a strike campaign into Iran in order to topple the Islamic Republic, among other objectives. US President Donald Trump announced the launch of combat operations in a video statement and called on the Iranian people to rise up against their regime.
Israel has launched decapitation strikes against Iranian leaders. Israeli officials told Axios that Israel is targeting the “entire Iranian leadership,” including current and former officials. Israel conducted numerous airstrikes targeting Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, according to Israeli and US officials speaking to Axios. Khamenei’s condition remains unclear at the time of this writing. Israeli officials assess that the IDF killed Defense Council Secretary Ali Shamkhani, Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Commander Major General Mohammad Pakpour, Defense Minister Brigadier General Aziz Nasir Zadeh, and the Iranian “intelligence chief.”

Ethiopia Prepares for War: Africa File Special Edition

Key Takeaway: The Ethiopian federal government will likely launch an offensive against the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) within the next month to neutralize the TPLF and its role in an emerging, loose anti-Ethiopian federal government coalition consisting of Eritrea, the TPLF, and other Amhara and Oromo ethno-nationalist militias. A conflict in Tigray would likely increase ongoing proxy competition between the Ethiopian federal government and the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and heighten the risk of a broader Ethiopia-Eritrea conflict, which would likely draw in Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Israel, and potentially Saudi Arabia.
