The implications of Iran’s nuclear program are not what we think. Tehran renounced the atomic bomb in 1988, but is attempting, with Russia’s cooperation, to discover the secrets of nuclear fusion. If it succeeds, it would help the Southern states decolonize by freeing themselves from oil. As for the implications […]
The confrontation between Israel and Iran does not at all correspond to the image presented by the media. Its roots lie in a period before the Islamic Republic and has no connection with the construction of a nuclear bomb. Its outbreak today is intended to conceal the misdeeds of the […]
The recent ceasefire declared between Iran and the U.S.-Israel axis might appear to be a temporary pause in escalating tensions.

The Israeli strikes on military and nuclear facilities in Iran, followed by the American use of GBU-57A/B bombs on Iranian nuclear facilities, indicate that the status quo that has existed for the past 80 years has been destroyed.
