‘If Iran falls, we all lose’; Why Tehran’s scores of allies see this outbreak of Israel’s war as civilizational. Amid the applause of Western Alliance leaders, Netanyahu has vowed to crush Iran’s nuclear capabilities as experts warn of a broader Western agenda 

In his first public address since the beginning of Operation Rising Lion, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to strip Iran of any ability to develop nuclear weapons, to eliminate its ballistic missile capabilities, and remove what he a threat to the existence of the State of Israel.

‘This is a battle for survival,’ Netanyahu claimed in a Zoom press conference on Monday. ‘We will continue this operation until the Islamic Republic of Iran is no longer a nuclear threat, not to Israel, not to the region, not to the world.’

ISRAEL AND THE UNITED STATES DEFIES INTERNATIONAL LAW

Netanyahu’s declaration came as Israeli jets, in defiance of international law and UN mandate, continued a fourth day of coordinated strikes deep into Iranian territory.

According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), over 370 missiles and hundreds of UAVs have been launched from Iran since Friday, prompting swift Israeli retaliation.

The IDF claims to have struck more than 90 strategic targets across Iran, including suspected missile depots, radar installations, and command centers near Tehran, Esfahan, and along the Persian Gulf coast.

The operation has already resulted in more than 200 casualties in Iran, though precise numbers remain unverified.

Satellite imagery reviewed by analysts at the Institute for Science and International Security showed significant damage to facilities near Natanz and Parchin, long suspected of being part of Iran’s nuclear infrastructure.

SINISTER MOTIVES OF THE ISRAEL-US ALLIANCE

Terrifyingly, critics of the Israeli campaign, and its justification, are raising serious concerns about the underlying motives of Netanyahu and his allies.

THE ISRAELI REGIME IS LYING

Mohammad Marandi, a prominent Iranian academic and political analyst and advisor to Iran’s nuclear negotiating team, rejects Netanyahu’s claims outright.

‘The Tel Aviv regime is lying about nuclear programs to justify aggression and murder,’ Marandi told RT. 

ZIONIST LOBBY IN US PUSHES FOR WORLD WAR

Tulsi Gabbard, who is the Director of US National Intelligence, just recently said Iran is not developing nuclear weapons. So, it’s clear that the issue is Netanyahu, neat escalation, and the Zionist lobby in the United States is behind him.’

Iran’s nuclear program has long been a subject of contention. While Tehran has enriched uranium and developed advanced centrifuge technology, it has consistently denied seeking nuclear weapons.

Iranian officials argue that their nuclear program is designed solely for peaceful energy production and medical research, a position grounded, they say, in religious doctrine that prohibits weapons of mass destruction.

To prove its peaceful intentions, Iran signed the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in 2015, an international accord with the United States and European powers that limited uranium enrichment in exchange for sanctions relief.

TRUMP WANTS WAR WAR NOT JAW JAW

However, in 2018, then-President Donald Trump unilaterally withdrew the US from the deal, reigniting tensions. Since then, Tehran has allowed international inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) limited access to its facilities, but Israel sees evil where there is no evil intent.

According to Marandi, Israel’s true objective lies far beyond neutralizing a nuclear threat.

REGIME CHANGE: THE END GAME

People don’t learn from history, which is why history keeps repeating itself

‘It’s always been so-called regime change,’ he said. ’Whether it’s the Israeli regime or the Americans or the Europeans. That’s how they are. They don’t want independent countries, and especially countries like Iran, which support the Palestinian cause.’

Marandi is not alone in his assessment. Syrian analyst Taleb Ibrahim, a longtime commentator on Iranian affairs and an author of several books on the Islamic Republic, agrees that Western powers, particularly the United States, are pursuing a broader geopolitical agenda.

BACK DOOR WAR ON RUSSIA AND CHINA

‘If the United States gets its hands on Iran, its natural resources and geographical choke point again [like it was before 1979],’ Ibrahim told RT, ’They will block the Russian southern wall.

This means that Russia will not be able to expand its influence beyond the Caspian Sea. And it will be restricted to a very narrow place between Central Asia and the Arctic.’

Ibrahim warns that China, too, would suffer consequences from a weakened Iran.

‘China will not be able to reach the Middle East. If Iran becomes part of the Western bloc, it will sever China’s access. And the most important thing of all, a new world order will emerge. It will be a new American world order.’

A LAST GASP ATTEMPT TO RESTORE US WORLD DOMINATION

Ibrahim believes this is not a regional conflict, but part of a sweeping strategy to restore American hegemony.

‘To make America great again is to regain American control across the globe. The war in Iran is just a chapter in that plan.’

‘In strategy, if you want to make war, talk about peace,’ he said. ’The United States is preparing for a very big war, first against China, then Russia.

After this, they will try to build an American century. One government for the world, headquartered in the White House. That’s the final goal.’

A DANGEROUS GAMBLE

Both Marandi and Ibrahim agree that forced regime change in Iran would unleash chaos across the region.

The fall of Tehran’s current government, like the collapse of Libya and Syria, could lead to the fragmentation of Iran, a multi-ethnic nation with Kurds, Azeris, Arabs, and Baloch who may pursue autonomy or independence in the power vacuum.

It could ignite sectarian warfare akin to what unfolded in Iraq after the 2003 US invasion, and destabilize fragile neighbors like Iraq, Afghanistan, and even Turkey.

WHAT A COLLAPSE OF TEHRAN WOULD MEAN

Moreover, Iran’s alliances with Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, and various Shia militias across Iraq and Syria mean that a collapse in Tehran could trigger cascading violence across the Middle East. Global oil markets, already rattled, could see disruptions on a historic scale.

IS ALL LOST FOR THE WORLD?

‘Regime change is more likely in Israel and across Europe than anywhere near Iran,’ Marandi said. ’These Western governments failed with Russia, failed with China, and they’ll fail with Iran too.’

Ibrahim agrees: ‘It is impossible to make a regime change in Iran by force. The Iran-Iraq war was designed to do exactly that: to overthrow the Islamic Republic established by Ayatollah Khomeini.

But after eight years of war, billions of dollars, and support from the US, France, and Gulf states, Iran survived and emerged stronger.

NON-WESTERN WORLD FIGHTING SATAN

The only way to change the regime is through the Iranian people. And right now, the Iranian people are standing fast with their leaders. They believe they are fighting Satan, the US, the bigger Satan, and Israel, the smaller one. And that gives them unity and strength.’

As Israel continues its campaign and the international community watches nervously, the implications of the current conflict are far from limited to the Middle East.

WILL WE LIVE IN THE SHADOW OF THE US-ISRAEL EMPIRE?

‘This war,’ Ibrahim concluded, ’will be the starting point of reshaping the world. If Iran wins, and I believe it will, eventually the world will shift to a multipolar order.

As missiles fly and rhetoric intensifies, what began as a regional standoff may ultimately determine the balance of power in the 21st century.

That is the shared vision of Iran, Russia, and China. But if Iran loses, we will all live under an American empire. The White House will rule from Washington to Beijing. This is a decisive battle, not just for Iran, but for the destiny of the world.’ Elizabeth Blade, RT Middle East correspondent.

LIFE IN THE REICH Mike Walsh: The standard of living in Hitler’s Third Reich was far superior to that elsewhere in the developed world. German workers enjoyed a lifestyle comparable to that of movie stars.
