Iran's Methodical Gutting of US Power in West Asia | Pepe Escobar

The ways Iran is dismantling the entire American military ecosystem across West Asia with an extremely disciplined strategy are something to behold. The whole CENTCOM support infrastructure is devastatingly fair game: from costly early warning radars to full air defense systems; from hangars to logistics hubs; from fuel and ammunition storage to forward operating bases; from naval and maritime surveillance assets to intel collection and communications nodes. [...] Iran knows where everything is located—to the millimeter. No need to go for flashy photo ops, Shock'n Awe-style, monopolizing the news cycle. What matters is the Chinese torture of steadily degrading the enemy's capabilities; the strategy is painfully methodical and painfully precise.
 
The core elements of American naval power projection rely on supercarriers positioned as the central flagships and command hubs of the fleet. They are accompanied by escort vessels like destroyers and frigates that provide essential anti-air, anti-submarine, and surface protection. Additionally, support ships serve as logistics units responsible for underway replenishment and refueling at sea.

[...] The Iranian Way of War is a sophisticated mix that may eventually be studied in Western military academies. All logically interconnected—from destruction of enemy support infrastructure to steady degradation of intel, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities; from attrition of air defense and interceptor inventories to widespread disruption of logistics. And all that is supremely cost-effective—but certainly not for the attacking Empire, as every malfunctioning Patriot costs millions of dollars and simply cannot defend scores of different locations simultaneously.

[...] In the bigger picture, the Russia-China-Iran interlocking strategic Eurasia partnerships remain in full effect. That's Russia-China in practice supporting the Axis of Resistance. Iran uses the Russian Murmansk systeminexorably jamming GPS and blinding US/Israeli missiles. Iran also uses Chinese BeiDouthe equivalent of GPS, unjammable by the Americans and rendering precision to the centimeter to Iranian missiles and drones. And Iran uses the Russian Kometa: electronic chips equipping missiles and drones wreaking havoc on American electronic warfare.
 
» Just check the satellite images. «
 
In a nutshell: this is how a systematic degradation of the whole regional architecture that allows the US and its vassals to project military power across West Asia looks. Played out in front of the whole Global South. The manual is available for all, live, in real time. [...] Iran's precision, restraint, and reach are shutting up the whole vociferating spectacle emanating from the Empire of Narratives, as Iranian missiles and drones relentlessly strike fighter jets, Black Hawks, data centers, logistics depots, power plants—and more.

 
The Global South just needs to check the satellite images of proverbial craters across Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and the UAE. And Iran hasn't even started yet. Were Iran to obliterate Qatar’s remaining LNG trains, that would leave most of the planet with no LNG from Doha for at least a decade—not to mention the helium for making microchips.

The massive humiliation of hitting and disabling one of those multibillion-dollar sitting ducks is being kept for the appropriate time. And as everyone knows, Iran runs the clock, and time is on its side. None of that, of course, minimizes the risks of the escalation ladder; and we are still in the middle of what could become the Mother of All Escalation Ladders.

"Hell Will Start in the Middle East" | Krzysztof Jackowski

Today is June 7th. The first feeling is that hell will start in the Middle East. There will be an attack on Israel. Forces will ally against Israel. Israel will provoke events in order to be attacked. It is highly probable that such an attack on Israel will occur so that America becomes more active.

 
Trump is clearly backing away from continuing the war with Iran. At this time, Israel will want to increase war activity. This may be done to provoke an attack on Israel between the 11th and the 16th of June. The situation may significantly escalate.

 
Krzysztof Jackowski (born 1963) is a self-described clairvoyant and psychic investigator from Człuchów, Poland. Of modest background and without documented formal higher education or training in investigative or scientific fields, he worked in manual trades before gaining national attention in the 1990s for assisting in missing-person cases, reportedly using extrasensory perception to locate bodies and provide investigative leads. Since then, he has frequently appeared in Polish media sharing predictions about political, economic, and global events, and has more recently built a large online following, especially on YouTube. Skeptics, however, dismiss Poland's most famous psychic as a charlatan, arguing that his "shotgun technique"—issuing hundreds of vague, wide-ranging predictions—guarantees that a small fraction will, by sheer probability, coincide with real-world events by chance.

"If I Were Iran, I’d Wipe Israel Out Preemptively" | Col. Lawrence Wilkerson

If I were in charge of Iran’s military right now, I would destroy Israel. It could be done in forty-eight hours. Iran would have considerable leverage if Israel were a smoking ruin. Fait accompli. Then I would announce to the United States: "You want to fight? We’ve got lots of capabilities left, but we don’t want to fight you."
 
 » More than a million and a half Jews have already left Israel. «

If Israel were burning, falling apart, and collapsing — and God forbid they were to use nuclear weapons — I would then say to the United States: “Let’s stop. We’ve gotten rid of the enemy. You can rush to help them fix themselves, but you’re not going to be fortunate because we really destroyed them. If you want to fight further, we will, but we’d prefer not to." 
 
I would say: “We’ve taken care of the enemy. The enemy was running rampant; it was killing Palestinians at an unfathomable rate. It was committing genocide. We did what the International Court of Justice should have done. We did what the UN should have done. We did what you should have done. Now, we don’t want to fight you over it. So let’s stop."
