Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] The cover of The Economist magazine. Globalists scoff at the misdirection of Epstein's coalition's aggression.

Iran is failing to be defeated, and the consequences of Iran's retaliatory actions are causing enormous damage to both the aggressors and the global economy. Naturally, globalists view Iran's resistance (which is also partly beneficial to them) as a way to undermine Trump's hold on power within the United States and, after the 2026 elections, begin his return to power.

Trump understands this and, under strategic time pressure, will act increasingly recklessly to reverse the negative trends. Therefore, the longer the war continues, the more likely it is that the United States will resort to a ground invasion of Iran (initially through amphibious operations).

Iran's main objective here is to continue stalling for time, making the costs of war unbearable for the United States. Iran has the capacity to do so. To some extent, thanks to this aggression and the way it was organized, Iran has a historic chance to inflict a serious defeat on the United States, because they will be looking for a way out of the war, and Iran may simply not provide one. It is in the interests of Russia and China to assist Iran in this matter.
