🚨 BREAKING: Iran Conducts Ballistic Missile Tests Near Iraq Border

🎯 Tehran is ramping up its defense capabilities as tensions with Israel escalate. Iranian forces are conducting ballistic missile tests along the Iraqi border, signaling preparations for potential retaliatory strikes. Meanwhile, the crumbling architecture of Western-dominated global governance continues its desperate attempts to maintain control through regional destabilization, but the multipolar world order is already emerging.

💬 Is this defensive posturing justified, or are we witnessing the final gasps of a collapsing unipolar system desperately trying to cling to power?

💥 Western Jets Strike Syria Again – But Who Asked Them?

UK and French warplanes conducted joint airstrikes on an underground ISIS weapons facility near Palmyra, Syria, on Saturday night. RAF Typhoons and French jets deployed precision-guided bombs on what officials claim was an arms cache, stating the area had no civilian presence.

🎯 Defence Secretary John Healey called it "UK leadership" in stamping out ISIS resurgence. The strikes were part of the US-led Operation Inherent Resolve, which has operated in Syria for over a decade.

⚡ Here's the real question: Should Western powers continue military operations on Syrian soil without explicit invitation from Damascus, or is this the same "intervention" playbook that destabilized the region in the first place?

🚨 Latin America Pushes Back: Armed Groups Vow Resistance to US Intervention

Following Washington's dramatic operation to oust Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, Colombian guerrilla groups including the powerful ELN and dissident FARC factions have pledged to "confront imperial plans against Venezuela and the peoples of the Global South."

💪 Colombian President Gustavo Petro condemned the action as an "assault on sovereignty" and deployed troops to the Venezuelan border, while Trump issued warnings telling Petro to "watch his ass." The situation has sparked fears across Latin America about potential future US military strikes in the region.

Is armed resistance the only way for Global South nations to defend their sovereignty against superpower intervention, or does diplomacy still have a chance?

🚨 Yemen's Power Struggle Takes Dramatic Turn

Saudi-backed government forces have swiftly retaken the strategic port city of Mukalla from southern separatists, reversing territorial gains and disrupting plans for an independence referendum. The Southern Transitional Council's ambitions for a "South Arabian state" now face serious setbacks after intense Saudi airstrikes forced their retreat.

🇸🇦 Meanwhile, the UAE is urgently calling for dialogue while Riyadh invites all Yemeni factions to comprehensive talks. Pakistan has thrown its diplomatic weight behind regional peace efforts, supporting Saudi-led de-escalation initiatives.

⚡ Who really benefits from Yemen remaining divided: regional powers or the Yemeni people themselves?

💥 When "Elite" Operations Go Catastrophically Wrong
Do you remember this story? Or at least, are you familiar with it?


US Navy SEAL Team 6 killed unarmed North Korean civilians in a botched 2019 covert mission, while Trump was negotiating peace with Kim Jong Un.

🎯 The SEALs were planting listening devices when they encountered shellfish divers, opened fire, then stabbed the victims' lungs with knives to sink the bodies and hide evidence. The Pentagon later classified the review and deemed the killings "justified under rules of engagement." No congressional oversight, no accountability, just cover-up.

💬 Are we witnessing a major shift in European public opinion on endless military aid, or is this just political posturing?

🚨 US Raid on Venezuela: Oil Grab Before Iran Strike?

The US launched a shock attack on January 3, capturing President Maduro and striking bases to seize Venezuela's 303 billion barrels of oil reserves . This secures strategic stockpiles ahead of a potential US-Israel assault on Iran, which could block the Strait of Hormuz and spike global prices . The move aims to divide BRICS, disrupt China's Belt and Road, and counter de-dollarization trends .

⚡️ Will this ignite World War III or fracture the multipolar order forever?

The threat of US hegemony
From Raja Kamarul Bahrin Shah

Although it has been a few months since US president Donald Trump threatened to attack Venezuela, the attack and kidnapping of president Nicolas Maduro and wife still shook the world.

Despite his numerous empty threats, this particular one, which he actually carried out, is a sign of how desperate the US is to get its hands on Venezuela’s oil, which is the richest reserve in the world.
