“Our country is not participating in any way, nor does it intend to become part of any military operation” – President of Cyprus – Nikos Christodoulides (02.03.2026).
“We did not start this war. But under President Trump, we are ending it” – U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth (02.03.2026)
The ones living in oblivion and are deluded will believe the words of Hegseth or anyone else spewing that sort of propaganda. In this regard, as the bombs, missiles and usage of force are continuing in the Middle East as a response to the Israeli American attack on Iran. Iran retaliated and did so in defence after the Trump and Netanyahu went to war.
There is reports that US and Israel didn’t build up stockpiles or the needed military supply to continue a prolonged war. They were busy thinking a few strikes and assassinations then everything would go back to normal. Like the Iranians wouldn’t have the capabilities or the ability to keep up a prolonged conflict. Alas, there is where the axis of Washington and Tel Aviv mistakenly wrong. As they bombed a nation which was in the middle of negotiations and dialogue but got bombed instead by the other party.
That’s why I lack sympathy for Israel or U.S., as this was what they ordered and what they wanted. The Iranian forces are going after the allies, the nations who trusted the U.S. and Israel. This being Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Saudi Arabia. Jordan, Iraq or anyone else really. All of the Middle East has spiralled into the conflict and it’s everywhere. Everyone is touched and there is earth shattering missiles hitting military installations and vital infrastructure that was used by intelligence community or buildings in associated with that. Therefore, Iran isn’t shredding tears but coming with a powerful message that they won’t be muffled around and accept their fate of just being another target of Trump or another Republican for that matter. No, they will retaliate and respond to the ones going against them.
The nations who have the bases feels left behind by their ally. They accepted the strings and sought a defensive partnership by having these bases on their territories. That’s why they had the navy at the ports and the military bases with airports too. Just so the Americans could use it for whatever it saw fit. That’s why they accepted it… and now it is costing them. These nations are in the crossfire and are getting touched or touched by Iran. Iran is doing this to show the nations who attacked them or worked with their enemies aren’t shielded. This is being done after Israel and U.S. gone rouge with intent of “regime change” which isn’t happening. Yes, the Ayatollah was assassinated, but the leadership is just changing faces. So, this isn’t helping the cause at all.
“No stupid rules of engagement, no nation-building quagmire, no democracy-building exercise. No politically correct wars. We fight to win, and we don’t waste time or lives” – U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth (02.03.2026)
This here doesn’t look like victory at all. The U.S. allies of the Middle East is feeling the pinch and left alone. The ones who allowed the U.S. army building infrastructure and military bases are now being burned at both ends. They are losing both wealth, power and whatever else that brought prosperity to these nations. That’s why they are calling foul and feels the U.S. didn’t honour their agreements or the reasonable prospects of having them on their soil. However, Trump didn’t consider it or even think this could be the implication of launching this war.
Meanwhile Tel Aviv is going into Lebanon and continuing the warfare there. So, for Israel it isn’t enough to just target Iran. They aren’t only lost in the waves of the attacks from Teheran. They are doing this to Beirut too and doing this to be the biggest warlord of the region. That’s why this war just launching into new levels and new enemies are created.
Pentagon is reported to go crazy, and they lack clear strategy ahead. They went into it like headless chickens and without a prior assessment of how things could play out. They just thought they could play wargames and that there wouldn’t be ramifications of it. Neither that the Iranians wouldn’t strike back or have the capabilities to do this. Like Teheran couldn’t plan or think of stockpiling the necessary weaponry to be a danger to the ones striking at it.
This here is just day three and there isn’t anything positive happening in the Middle East. Industries are hit. Petroleum is in danger. LNG or Gas are ceased operation too. Vessels are hit outside of Oman and the Strait of Hormuz. Planes are falling from the sky in Kuwait. Therefore, this day is a reckoning.
This isn’t a theatre or a play; no this is real life. People’s lives are in danger. Energy markets hit across the world. War is dangerous and treasonous territory, which we don’t know how it moves. That’s why every day is different and the strikes are hitting new places, which has new consequences. This is all the fault of Israel and the United States who launched this war. They are responsible for the retaliations of Iran. Therefore, they cannot act like they are on the defensive or the ones who did it in self-defence. No, they are the aggressor and the ones who acted with malice. Peace.
