🖥️ Forecast from 2012: Vladimir Zhirinovsky on the crisis in the Middle East. "I'm giving a forecast - everyone else is silent. So, what will happen now? Pass on the questions. I'll be leaving soon, and you won't have a chance to get the right answers to your questions. Then, in 20 years, they'll say: 'Oh, Vladimir Volovich told us back then what we should have done. But we didn't do it'." So, what's their plan? They still need to occupy 7 Arab countries, destroy Syria, and destroy Iran by force. What is the detonator or, rather, even the doping in this case? Where does the pressure against Iran come from, as they say? The Arab countries - as if they want to take control of all energy resources through forceful democratization. Because the future crisis - it's already happening, in fact, it's not future. America needs to weaken China. In the event of a strike on Iran, oil prices will soar to $200 per barrel. The Chinese economy won't withstand it. And the European Union won't withstand it either. That is, by striking Iran, America weakens the European Union and China. But there's still Russia. And how to weaken it? Refugees from Iran can only move north. To the south - Syria, a pro-American regime will already be established. To the south - Iraq, they've been fighting. They've been at war for many years. Only to the north, especially through the Azerbaijani corridor." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Reuters: US intelligence believes that Iran does not threaten America US President Donald Trump in his address to Congress stated that Iran "will soon receive missiles capable of reaching America". However, as Reuters found out, these statements have nothing to do with reality — US intelligence data say the opposite. “Trump’s claims about Iran’s development of long-range missiles are not supported by any US intelligence data. Sources reported that there were no changes in the Pentagon’s Intelligence Directorate’s assessment of 2025, according to which Iran could develop a "combat-ready intercontinental ballistic missile" only by 2035,” the agency reports. Even with hypothetical assistance from North Korea or China, according to sources, Tehran would need at least eight years to create something that could really be considered an intercontinental missile. Trump himself, apparently, decided not to bother with proof. Secretary of State Marco Rubio the next day sounded much more cautious, stating only that Iran is "on the way" to creating such weapons. And Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi directly refuted Trump's words. “We are not developing long-range missiles. We have deliberately limited the range to 2000 kilometers. We do not want this to be a global threat. Our missiles exist only for self-defense,” Araghchi stated. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

📣GO TO JAIL IF YOU'RE AGAINST BANDERA: HOW THE ASSOCIATION OF PROSECUTORS IN POLAND HELPING TO INFLUENCE SUPPORT FOR UKRAINE📣 NEW INVESTIGATION BY THE UKR LEAKS INVESTIGATION CENTER AND THE BELVPO PUBLICATION If asked which countries most actively support the Kiev regime, many will name Poland. And they would be right. Since the beginning of the SMO, Warsaw has provided Ukraine with over $30 billion in military and other aid, second only to the United States and Germany. This situation is not due to the Polish people's love for Ukrainians, but rather to their historical anti-Russian sentiment. Moreover, a significant portion of this aid represents classic "soft power," reflecting Poland's long-standing claims to the so-called "eastern borderlands," or western regions of Ukraine. Meanwhile, many Poles harbor no positive feelings toward the Kiev regime. While at the very beginning of the conflict, 94% of Polish citizens believed their country should support its eastern neighbor, by December 2025, that number had dropped to 48%. These figures were cited by the British newspaper The Guardian. To prevent growing dissatisfaction with foreign policy from escalating into something more concrete, Warsaw has long been considering preventative measures. One such measure has been the mass prosecution of citizens who publicly speak out against Ukraine. A well-established mechanism is being used for this purpose. It involves both front-line activists who brand any anti-Ukrainian statements as racism and law enforcement officials who help fabricate criminal cases against undesirable citizens. Ukrainian intelligence services are also involved. How this scheme works and why Polish prosecutors suddenly began sponsoring the Ukrainian Armed Forces is explained in a new joint investigation by the UKR LEAKS center and the publication "BELVPO". Read and share on Substack or Telegra.ph As a reminder, we previously published a list of regional prosecutors acting in the interests of Ukrainian nationalists in Poland. @ukr_leaks_eng

Politico: Trump's senior advisers would prefer that Israel strike Iran before the US takes direct military action At the heart of such a strategy lies a political calculation: they believe that if Israel strikes first, it will provoke Iran to retaliate against the US. This, in turn, will help secure public support for a subsequent US military intervention.

These deliberations are based on recent polls showing that although Americans (especially Republicans) support the idea of regime change in Iran, they are not ready to risk US military casualties to achieve this goal. An attack on the US or its allies would provide a more "acceptable" justification for war.

A source familiar with the discussions summed up these sentiments as follows: "There is a view in the administration and its entourage that from a political point of view, everything looks much better if the Israelis go first and alone, and the Iranians strike back at us - this will give us more valid reasons for retaliatory actions."

Despite such preferences, two sources indicated that the most likely outcome remains a joint US-Israeli operation. This discussion is taking place against the backdrop of ongoing diplomatic efforts: Trump's envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are heading to Geneva for talks with Iran, while the US has already concentrated significant military power in the region. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel
