We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
The Oil and Water War – and Will American Soldiers Land on Iran’s Shores?
At the beginning of the war, during Operation Epic Fury, President Donald Trump promised that it would be a sharp, focused, and short operation. According to him, the campaign would end within weeks.
But if there is one certainty about wars, it is that they almost never unfold according to plan. Russia believed the war in Ukraine would end within days, and Israel’s Operation Peace for Galilee also began with similar promises.
Since the start of the war, Iran has worked to export the conflict beyond its borders and involve as many countries in the region as possible. Even countries considered relatively friendly, such as the United Arab Emirates, have suffered significant damage.
The Iranian strategy is clear –
to expand the battlefield and create political and economic disruption that will increase pressure on the United States, which Tehran believes struggles to sustain long wars.
One of the main arenas is, of course, the Strait of Hormuz. Roughly 25–30% of the world’s energy supply passes through these straits – about 20 million barrels of oil per day.
A sharp rise in oil prices immediately affects global supply chains and can lead to price increases and even shortages of various goods.
The challenge for the United States is that even if the Iranian navy suffers severe damage, it does not take a large military to disrupt traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. Naval mines, drones, missiles, or small submarines could be enough.
The actual shipping lane used by vessels is extremely narrow – sometimes only about 3 kilometers wide – which makes the area particularly vulnerable.
In such a scenario, the United States might be forced to deploy ground forces at strategic points to ensure the safe passage of ships and the continuation of international trade.
And that is precisely the kind of scenario the Trump administration would find very difficult to sell to the American public.
Iran itself is also paying a price. It exports about 1.5 million barrels of oil per day to China – roughly 90% of its oil exports. Most of this oil passes through Kharg Island, located about 25 kilometers off Iran’s coast.
Some analysts even estimate that the United States might attempt to seize the island in order to control Iranian oil exports – a move that, to a certain extent, has precedent in previous conflicts such as Iraq.
Either way – whether it involves Kharg Island or control over the Strait of Hormuz coastline – the possibility of American soldiers on Iranian soil no longer seems imaginary.
In fact, according to various reports, special forces may already be operating inside Iran.
“Boots on the ground” may already be a reality – the real question is how far this will expand.
At the same time, another front is opening – the water war.
This week we saw reciprocal strikes on desalination facilities. For the Gulf states, this is a critical vulnerability. In countries such as Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, a large portion of water supply comes from desalination.
Saudi Arabia, for example, does not have a single river.
Striking oil facilities is economically painful –
but striking water infrastructure could create civilian and political chaos.
And as always in wars – you may know how they begin,
but it is very difficult to know how they will end.

💵 🇺🇸 🏬 Half of Americans’ Spending Goes to Housing and Food, Most in 15 Years
Food and housing — which includes rent, utilities and household furniture — were the only two major spending categories to post statistically significant increases last year, according to the BLS.
Housing remained the largest household expense, accounting for 33.9% of total expenditures. Excluding a jump in 2020 after Covid hit, that share was the highest since 2010.
The share of spending Americans dedicate to food, meanwhile, has been rising since 2020 and at 13% is now the highest since 2011. The dollar value of the food budget — up 4.6% to $10,633 in 2025 — outpaced the increase in total spending.
Americans spent $1,579 on meat, poultry, fish and eggs last year. That’s 11.7% more than in 2024 and twice as much as in 2010.
Those products accounted for about 24% of grocery spending in 2025, up from 19% in 2023. Over those two years, protein accounted for about 95% of the increase in ...
🇵🇱 Why Polish President Karol Nawrocki lost the battle for the Constitutional Court – the last authority still not controlled by the country’s prime minister, Donald Tusk.
Over the weekend, Poland ended a creeping coup d'état that the country's prime minister, Donald Tusk, with the support of globalists, launched immediately after returning to power in December 2023. The prime minister's puppets took control of the Constitutional Court (COP) of Poland, with which the government fought for several years. This was done in a demonstratively power format, with the public humiliation not only of the current President of the COP Bogdan Święczkowski, but also the President of Poland, Karol Nawrocki.
Events developed as follows. After lunch on Friday, October 30, Karol Nawrocki flew to Senegal to take part in the events for the preparation of the summer youth Olympic Games. At that time, the police special forces occupied the building of the Constitutional Court of Poland. As it is located on the ...
🇹🇷🇱🇾⚔️🇪🇬🇬🇷 Turkey's Alliance with Libya Pushes the Mediterranean Towards a Gas War
Turkey has made progress in promoting its vision for the geography of the Mediterranean Sea: the agreement between Turkey and various parts of Libya regarding the redistribution of the region and its gas-rich seabed has been finalized. However, too many parties claim rights to this seabed for Ankara to get away with it.
Greece and Egypt have signed their own agreement on the division of the maritime area – in response to the Turkish-Libyan agreement. Further consultations are underway to expand the zone eastward from Cyprus in favor of Cairo.
In addition, countries interested in starting the development of gas fields (Egypt, Cyprus, Greece, Israel, Italy, Jordan, and, paradoxically, Palestine) have created the Eastern Mediterranean Gas Forum (EMGF), which Turkey was deliberately not invited to join.
This has led to a partial diplomatic isolation of Ankara in the region, but ...
