the unbalanced evolution of homo sapiens

globinfo freexchange   Recent statements by the Iranian leadership concerning the ability of Iran to hit US military bases, should not be taken lightly. It is not just the missile capability and - in some cases - even superiority of Iran in the broader region. That alone, would not be enough for Washington to take Tehran's threats seriously.    It has to do also with a strategic move by Iran in the geopolitical battlefield that changes the balance decisively in the war field too. As Pakistan Today reported back in July 2025:   In two recent wars that nearly tipped the world into a full-scale global conflict— one between Pakistan and India, and the other between Iran and Israel— a new determinant of military dominance emerged. In both cases, countries under pressure, Pakistan and Iran, not only stood their ground but struck deep into enemy territory with astonishing precision and devastating impact.  ... in a 12-day war with Israel, Iran destroyed numerous h...

Danny Haiphong   The truth is coming out on Trump's decision to hold off on US strikes against Iran, and it's devastating for the empire's declining global dominance says geopolitical analyst Ben Norton. In this video, Haiphong and  Norton break down why Trump's war has failed, the risk for another escalation, and the untold secret behind Iran's missile and military power that has Washington in shock.

Reason2Resist with Dimitri Lascaris  Dimitri Lascaris speaks with Professor Mohammad Marandi of the University of Tehran about the rioting in Iran, the likelihood of another U.S. attack on the country, and the newly appointed members of Trump's so-called "Board of Peace".

Li Jingjing 李菁菁   Track records of Western interventions tell us we need to be skeptical and cautious whenever some Western politicians and pundits claim they want to liberate people in another country and bring them democracy. Seyed Mohammad Marandi is a professor at the University of Tehran in Iran. In this episode, he told Li Jingjing what happened during the protests in Iran and how Western sanctions hurt the lives of ordinary Iranians.

Geopolitical Economy Report   The US government is openly backing the protests in Iran. An Israeli media outlet admitted foreign powers are arming Iranian rioters with weapons to try to overthrow the government. Ben Norton explains the geopolitical context and why the USA has sought regime change ever since the 1979 Iranian Revolution.   

The Jimmy Dore Show    As protests in Iran have heated up, western media has actively exaggerated and selectively framed the violence by using casualty figures from U.S.- and Israel-funded NGOs — all in order to build public support for another regime-change war. Former CIA officer John Kiriakou and guest Scott Ritter claim protests were infiltrated by foreign intelligence networks and that Israel and the U.S. are using “human rights” narratives similarly to the way they were used in Iraq and Syria.   Dore and Ritter contend that Iran’s government responded to armed unrest rather than peaceful protest, while mainstream outlets ignore attacks on police and public infrastructure. They warn that propaganda, sanctions, and media coordination are laying the groundwork for a wider U.S.–Israel conflict with Iran. 

Breaking Points   Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti discuss the rampant propaganda on Iran protests.   

Danny Haiphong   Iran is ready for war, and its hypersonic ballistic missile system could destroy Israel & US military presence forever says Scott Ritter who joined the show to break down the consequences of Trump's march to war with Iran. The former UN Weapons Inspector does a deep dive into Iran's readiness and why it should terrify Trump & Israel together. 

Middle East Eye   David Hearst, editor-in-chief of Middle East Eye , explains why, by standing up to Abu Dhabi, Riyadh is reshaping the Middle East. Abu Dhabi’s policy of strengthening the Southern Transitional Council (STC) in Yemen to the point where it could declare itself an independent state that recognised Israel was close to becoming a reality. All the STC needed was to take control of two sparsely populated but geographically vast provinces in the east of the country: al-Mahra and Hadhramaut, which together account for nearly half of Yemen’s territory. Hadhramaut shares a border with Saudi Arabia, and the appearance of the STC in the provincial capital, Mukalla, marked the wake-up call Riyadh needed.
