“Regulation that’s defined entirely in terms of the technology it regulates, as opposed to in terms of the effects it has on society or imposing boundaries and limits on the technology itself, is a core component of the technopolistic political and legislative environment.”

“Getting beat by a cash-starved, under-resourced, extremist state struggling to quell internal unrest is not something that happens to global superpowers.”

“How War Changed Iran’s National Consciousnes”

“The reality emerging inside the country today is not one of ideological uniformity. Iran remains socially diverse, politically contested and culturally dynamic. But the war appears to have accelerated the emergence of a broader national consensus around one central idea: that Iran’s future should be determined internally rather than imposed externally”

How War Reshaped Iran’s National Consciousness: External Pressure Failed to Fracture Society and Instead Deepened a Sense of Sovereignty

War and sanctions failed to fracture Iran, instead strengthening national identity, strategic awareness and support for sovereignty across society.

“‘Little Sparta’: Why The UAE Attacked Iran for Israel’s Sake – Analysis”

“In reality, the UAE not only provided a launching pad for the illegal US-Israeli attack on Iran, but had even fully integrated its air defense systems with Israel following their normalisation agreement. They were providing the Israelis with information used to help them combat Iranian retaliatory strikes on their territory, while the Emirati-owned Wing Loong II UAVs were used to monitor Iranian airspace in support of the US-Israeli aggression”

@John
I wasn’t making a a comment either way. Whether the author is right or wrong wasn’t in my mind when I tooted this. It is important to be informed of the #Chinese perspective in a world that is being thrashed by a demented #POTUS. Time will tell how close he is to the unfolding events.

My personal opinion (yet to be tested, torn down and rebuilt) is that #China is not ready for #Hegemony yet, and certainly cannot get to that #Geopolitical position without a worthy adversary. Given the identifying Chinese virtue that is patience, I would not put it past #Xi to work #POTUS like #Putin has and set the #US on a course to it’s downfall (post #tRump) while helping China to take over the throne. Thus shifting from the #PRC #MultiPolarWorldOrder to a #MonopoleWorldOrder in the future. This would be a long term strategy likely to be taken by the Chinese.

I’d better brush up on my ZhongWen (Chinese), eh…

“Hormuz: The beginning of the end of dominance”

By Mohammad Ibrahim in Al Mayadeen English

“The clearest lesson from history remains constant: decline does not begin with defeat, but with a moment of doubt. In that moment, power does not collapse immediately, but begins to shift from a source of confidence to a subject of question. Hence, the Strait of Hormuz may become a pivotal point in reshaping the international system, where the decisive factor is no longer who is strongest, but who is perceived as likely to remain so”
