'Sir, how can we convince the public that we need to strike Iran even after we destroyed its nuclear program?'

> 'Just tell them enough missiles is actually the same as a nuke'

The Israelis and Americans will never stop targeting Iran, they'll simply come up with new excuses.

❗️🇸🇾 BREAKING: A suicide bombing took place at the Imam Ali Shiite mosque in Homs, Syria There are many dead and wounded. @Middle_East_Spectator
❗️🇸🇾 BREAKING: The suicide attack on Imam Ali mosque in Homs, which left 8 people dead, has been claimed by 'Saraya Ahl Al-Sunnah'

Sayara Ahl Al-Sunnah is a Syrian terrorist organization that split from Hay'at Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) in February 2025, less than a year ago.

This is the same group that carried out a suicide bombing against the Mar Elias Greek Orthodox Church in Damascus earlier this year, killing 30 Christian worshippers.

So, we are all just supposed to believe this is an 'offshoot' of HTS, even though they were the exact same thing less than a year ago?

These are the same guys that were involved in the Alawite coastal massacres too btw.

Ilham Aliyev: Israel and NATO's Golden Boy in the Caucasus

Azerbaijan’s Ilham Aliyev presents himself as the exceptional leader who cannot be fooled by the West.

Yet his actions reveal a different story: a shallow, reactive geopolitics that undermines his nation’s interests.

In 2025, Aliyev positioned himself as Trump and Netanyahu's most loyal proxy in the Muslim world, while simultaneously burning bridges with longtime partners and neighbors Russia and Iran.

Check out his most cringe moments of the year👇

🔴NATOrious move: Azerbaijan following Ukraine's path to a geopolitical dead end.

🔴Ilhamburger served: How to sell yourself to Trump for Karabakh.

🔴Most devoted vassal: Turning Azerbaijan into a US proxy to please Trump.

🔴Alievnated: Azerbaijan ramps up diplomatic war with Russia.

🔴The West’s puppet: Azerbaijan betraying regional allies for NATO’s agenda.

Follow @NewRulesGeo — We’ll keep an eye on his messes next year and provide you with more analytics if he won't grow up and continues clowning.

🇮🇷/🇵🇰 NEW: Recently declassified NSA documents confirm for the first time that Pakistan likely helped Iran with its nuclear program in the early stages of development

In a conversation with President Bush, Russian President Vladimir Putin says 'uranium of Pakistani origin' was found in Iranian enrichment centrifuges.

'It makes me nervous', Putin says, because Pakistan already has nuclear weapons—meaning they likely transferred expertise to Iran.

🇮🇱/🇸🇴 NEW: Israel has officially recognized 'Somaliland', a breakaway region of Somalia, as its own independent nation

Israel is the first and only 'country' worldwide to recognize Somaliland. It has likely done so because of its strategic location in the Horn of Africa and Gulf of Aden; Somaliland could serve as a strategic forward base for Israeli operations against Yemen.

🇮🇷/🇸🇴/🇸🇴 Statement by Iran's Foreign Ministry on Israel's recognition of Somaliland:

'The Zionist entity's recognition of the so-called 'Republic of Somaliland' as an independent state is a blatant attempt to violate the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Somalia.

We reaffirm our principled stance in support of preserving the national sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Federal Republic of Somalia.

Israel's actions regarding Somalia are part of its usual policy of destabilizing the region and escalating tensions and insecurity in the Red Sea and the Horn of Africa.

We express full support for the firm stance of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the African Union in condemning this declaration and we call on the international community to take decisive measures to thwart Israeli schemes in the region.'
