Europe’s quiet role in the war on Iran

 

As European leaders call for restraint and diplomacy; their actions tell another story. From military infrastructure to political alignment, Europe is not standing apart from the war on Iran; it is entangled in it, exposing a deeper pattern of dependence on the United States and strategic decline.

European leaders have responded to the war on Iran with a familiar language: calls for restraint, appeals to diplomacy, and renewed commitments to international law. From Brussels to Berlin, the language has been measured, even cautious. Yet the gap between what Europe says and what it does has rarely been so stark.

While European governments publicly distance themselves from escalation, their infrastructure, alliances, and policies continue to sustain the very war effort they claim to oppose. Military bases, logistical networks, and intelligence frameworks tied to NATO remain fully operational.

Arms flows continue. Political backing, though often indirect, is unmistakable.

This contradiction is not simply a matter of hypocrisy. It reveals something deeper about Europe’s position in the global order, one defined less by autonomy than by structural dependence on the United States. The war on Iran is not creating this reality; it is exposing it.

At the core of Europe’s constrained position lies its long-standing transatlantic alliance membership. NATO has, for decades, provided the framework for European security. But it has also shaped Europe’s foreign policy, narrowing the space for independent action.

For Vijay Prashad, historian and executive director of the Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research this  relationship explains the apparent contradiction between Europe’s rhetoric and its behavior.

“Well, that contradiction is at the heart of the arrangement across the Atlantic, where European countries have, in a sense, surrendered their foreign policy to the United States through their attachment to NATO. In a sense, NATO shapes the foreign policy of Europe for the most part, and Europe doesn’t really have much independence to chart its own foreign policy direction.”  (more...)

William Branham And The Race-War Ideas Behind Jonestown

 

John and Charles trace how apocalyptic prophecy, race-war ideology, and fear-based teaching shaped lives inside William Branham's movement and influenced later groups such as Jim Jones and People's Temple. They examine how these teachings affected ordinary believers, distorted decision-making, and helped normalize extreme expectations about an imminent American collapse.

The discussion also explores links between Latter Rain, Christian Identity-style themes, and the psychological power of doomsday belief. Along the way, John and Charles show how failed prophecy can still leave lasting damage, even when the predicted events never happen.

Iran Release Proof Israel Planning 'Worse Than 9/11' False Flag on U.S. to Destroy Trump's Ceasefire

 

Explosive files hacked directly from Mossad headquarters reveal Israel's plan for a wave of devastating false flag attacks on the United States designed to shatter the American public into a state of "total psychological disintegration."

Their goal is ice-cold and ruthless: mass death, chaos, and the elimination of the president they now see as a traitor for daring to seek peace with Iran.

Trump administration ‘weaponizing Christianity’ as Israel acts with impunity – activist

 

The US president’s rhetoric is unbecoming of a world leader while the West continues to turn a blind eye to Israeli crimes in Gaza and beyond, Tadhg Hickey has said

The administration of US President Donald Trump is “weaponizing Christianity” to justify its actions in the Middle East, while Israel continues to act with impunity as much of the West turns a blind eye, Irish activist and satirist Tadhg Hickey has said.

Appearing on RT’s East Meets West show, hosted by Tara Reade and Olga Bataman, Hickey described it as ironic that Trump and other officials in his administration have invoked biblical messaging in their public statements on the war against Iran, when in reality their actions are “going further and further away from what Christ’s teachings were.”

“It’s a weaponizing of Christianity that I find really appalling. It’s really vulgar this idea that Jesus is this kind of agent of war for these people, and there’s nothing Christian about their values or their behavior,” Hickey said.

He described Israel as acting with total impunity in Gaza and elsewhere, and attempting to “get away with as much as they can” while Trump is in the White House, safe in the knowledge that they will face no resistance from Washington or the broader West.

Hickey also described “Christian Zionism” in the US as “the most voracious aspect” supporting Israel’s actions, while the Jewish state has been adept at creating a “Trump 2.0 monster” and ensuring complicity from Washington.

Hickey also discussed his experience of being detained in Israel after attempting to deliver aid to Gaza as part of the Freedom Flotilla in 2025.

“We were abducted in international waters, brought to a terrorist prison… put into prisoner garb, denied medical attention, no access to lawyers, no yard time. There was a 75-year-old Irish guy, he was denied access to his insulin… it was a miracle he survived. I don’t think they actually would have tried to kill one of us, but if one of us had died in one their cells, that would have been a big bonus [for them], because it would have been a deterrent for people going again,” the activist said.  (more...)

When the Zionist Army’s Chief Was Under Handala’s Watch! General Herzi Halevi Hacked

 

For years, Handala has silently and invisibly been right inside the system of General Herzi Halevi, the former Chief of Staff of the Zionist Army, a place no one ever imagined possible.

During all this time, more than 19,000 confidential images and videos from the most secret meetings of the Zionist military’s Chief of Staff have been extracted and archived—material your top generals never dreamed would see the light of day.

An army that now nervously pixelates every public image never realized that its own Chief of Staff’s files and photos have been fully accessible and uncensored to Handala, every moment, for years.

Every face, every commander, every criminal pilot, clear and unblurred, are in our hands, and will be revealed one by one when the time is right.

All your top-secret facilities, crisis rooms, maps, and even the tiniest details of your command centers have long been like an open book to us.

Even now, Handala has access to all your senior commanders. Every moment, every decision, every conversation is being watched, only the time to expose them has not yet arrived.

And for the sake of irony: as one of our videos shows, this very so-called “general” was once caught hiding under a table, trying to scare his wife—and failed even at that!

Are these the same criminal commanders who think they can intimidate the lion cubs of Haidar al-Karrar or the warriors of Hezbollah?

What a delusion!

Remember:

We are the shadow in the heart of your command;

And everything you have will one day be exposed for all the world to see.  (more...)
