The Taiwan crisis nobody is watching
By Bang Xiao

Taipei sits at the physical centre of the global AI economy but remains shut out of the diplomatic rooms where its sovereign rights are negotiated, often by others.

US Sanctions Nobitex Crypto Exchange Over Terrorism Financing Links

The US Treasury has sanctioned Nobitex, Iran's largest crypto exchange, and several top executives, citing its role in supporting the regime and processing over 50% of Iranian digital asset inflows. This move is part of a broader effort to crack down on terrorism financing through cryptocurrency.

This is a very good summary of the causes of the protest that occurred last month in Iran. Basically, every player is evil and a murderer: The Islam Republic, Obama, Biden, Trump, and Israel. The only real truth behind this story is that economic sanctions inflicted against a sovereign nation whose State persistently violates human rights is even more disrespectful of the human rights of the citizens of that country. Why? Because you're consolidating the power of the ruling regime.

"Although, presently, the protests have been forcibly contained once again, the political impasse the Islamic Republic has imposed on an increasingly restive and by now desperate society persists. Addressing this impasse requires a significant political change, of course, something the Islamic Republic adamantly refuses to even consider. Meanwhile, Trump’s crude posturing as Iran’s saviour and bombastic promises of “helping” the protesters has had no tangible effect, except playing into the regime’s hands and bolstering its narrative of tying the protests to foreign machinations. Israel, too, openly boasts of Mossad involvement in the protests, an allegation whose specific validity is hard to gauge but, ironically, is the linchpin of the regime’s official justification of its violence being a defensive strategy against armed foreign agents. It remains the daunting task of the Iranian people and their progressive international allies to figure out the basic contours of a viable roadmap out of the country’s horrible current impasse."
