Iran Plunges Into Chaos After Khamenei’s Death
Iran erupted into unprecedented chaos after Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed during targeted strikes on Feb. 28. Streets in Tehran filled with protesters, while retaliatory attacks hit U.S. bases in the Persian Gulf and the U.S. Embassy in Kuwait. Analysts warn that the violence could escalate into a wider regional crisis.

The Middle East is once again facing a dangerous moment. Military strikes, political warnings, and angry responses have raised fears of a bigger conflict.

WAR HAS BEGUN Israel And The United States Launch Coordinated Attack On Iran!
The idea of Iran being brought to its knees is a viable and necessary outcome. Again, President Trump did a good thing, but it doesn’t mean he’s a good person. Far from it. Just like when he launched a campaign against Iran last summer, this is just another notch for him to claim his nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize. (Peace through strength?)

Labour Minister: We Are Back to The Future.
I have often thought that Russia being bogged down in Ukraine making incremental gains against a stubborn Ukraine defence is similar to when Japan was bogged down in China before the Second World War fighting the Chinese Nationalist forces for little gain. Yes, the Japanese like Russia now made some gains in captured territory. But at a huge cost to both sides like Russia and Ukraine now. In that respect history is repeating itself where another country invades and expects a victory to be in the enemy capital very soon, much like how US forces captured Baghdad in 2003. However, for Japan in China then and for Russia in Ukraine now that didn't/hasn't happened. Both Japan in China then and Russia in Ukraine now ended up in a slog fest with total victory out of sight.

Trump Touts Third Term.
Trump must be one of the most boastful men on Earth. In his dreams, he probably sees himself as Superman, not unlike that Spitting Image puppet of Ronald Reagan in the 80s, a Genesis video "Land of Confusion" where Reagan rides a Triceratops putting everything right. In the video, Reagan is dressed as Superman and a cowboy. He wakes up next to his wife Nancy and realises it was all an illusional dream. Strange irony, really, as Trump has a picture of Ronald Reagan in the Oval Office. And we know while Trump doesn't literally think he is Reagan come again (although that wouldn't surprise me!), he is certainly an admirer of Reagan.
