  1. Vasli Nasr (JohnHopkinsU) suggests the Tangerine Tyrant may have allowed Iran to commence a strategic asymmetric war to their own ends:

    'Iran’s leaders entered this war with the goal of ensuring it will be the last one. Either it breaks them or radically changes the country’s circumstances. They are betting on surviving long enough & squeezing the global economy hard enough to realise that goal' securing a ceasefire agreement safeguarding their sovereignty & future.

  6. John Quiggin ‘s blog is a sad read indeed. It reaks of pessimism about Australia’s political landscape. Not without cause to be sure, and the faint hope of redemption laid on a stagnating #Greens penetration of the electorate isn’t giving me much hope. Nevertheless, I agree that #Labor is just about a lost cause and any move to put #ADF boots on the ground in support of the #MadKingDonald ‘s campaign in the #MiddelEast will be the final nail in the coffin afaiac. That will be the trigger for me to cancel my party m’ship to be sure.

  21. #US SecDef #Austin tried to refocus attention on #China threat in #AsiaPacific, seeking to alleviate concerns that conflicts in #Ukraine & #Gaza have distracted from #America's security commitments in the region

    Since #Hamas #Oct7 attacks just 7 mo after China-brokered #rapprochement between mortal enemies #Iran & #SaudiArabia that derailed #ArabIsraeli peace process at the time, it’s been increasingly clear that #MiddelEast conflict was triggered by Chinese meddling
