Trump’s entanglement and the rot of power in Epstein’s shadow ledger
From Mar-a-Lago whispers to Mossad backchannels, the unsealed trove shatters MAGA illusions and Wall Street facades
TEHRAN – Jeffrey Epstein’s archive release unfolds not as a thunderclap but a slow-motion forensic collapse: more than 20,000 pages unsealed by House Democrats on the Oversight Committee, each a page from corruption’s operating manual.

Fortresses of fear: Israel’s walls and the myth of security
BEIRUT - Since its establishment, the Israeli entity has relied on walls, both physical and ideological, as central pillars of its security doctrine. The project itself emerged from the logic of “preventive isolation”: fortifying settlements against an Arab environment portrayed in Zionist discourse as inherently “hostile.”

Decoding the deception: How Trump’s ceasefire blocks Palestinian statehood
TEHRAN – U.S. President Donald Trump’s 20-point ceasefire plan for Gaza has been promoted as a pathway to Palestinian self-determination and eventual statehood. Yet Israeli officials have made clear that such statehood will never be accepted, exposing the truce plan as a diplomatic pretense designed to advance U.S. and Israeli agendas under the guise of peace.

Power that devours itself
TEHRAN – Power in politics, if it crosses the boundary of balance, turns from a strategic capacity into an internal threat. In the political realm, power is a double-edged sword: an instrument that can create security and influence, yet if used unrestrained and to excess, it gradually erodes its own foundations.

When pressure fails: Assessing Israel’s approach to Iran
By Xavier Villar
MADRID – In West Asia, the illusion of control often proves more compelling than control itself. Policy toward Iran, marked by external pressure and an obsession with “regime change”, has repeatedly shown that simple solutions are, in reality, dangerous mirages.

Iran pursues US at UN after Trump admits he was 'in charge of' June war
TEHRAN – "Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law." That is the warning U.S. police give criminal suspects when they are arrested. Its repetition in American movies and TV has made the notion — that your words can be used against you — familiar to most citizens. Yet some in the U.S. seem to believe words lose their bite when spoken by someone in the position of power.

Ron Dermer’s resignation underscores Israel’s deep failures
TEHRAN – Ron Dermer, Israel’s Strategic Affairs Minister and one of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s closest advisers, has resigned. In his letter, he made a rare admission: the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack was “the darkest day the Jewish people have known since Israel was established.” His words matter because they concede that Israel failed in its most basic duty — protecting the regime. Yet even while acknowledging this failure, Dermer praised Netanyahu’s leadership and tried to frame the government’s response as a success. This is less about accountability and more about shaping a legacy that hides Israel’s deeper failures, especially its ongoing oppression of Palestinians.

Haaretz details Israel’s costly campaign to reverse declining U.S. public support
TEHRAN – U.S. public support for Israel has been declining in recent years, a trend highlighted by a recent Haaretz report. Surveys show that negative views of Israel among Americans rose from 42 percent in 2022 to 53 percent by 2025. This decline spans political lines: even among young Republicans—traditionally reliable supporters—criticism of Israel is growing. Younger Evangelical Christians, who were once among Israel’s most steadfast allies, are increasingly skeptical, no longer offering automatic support.
