RIGHT-WING WOKE TAKES DAVOS
Argentinian President, Javier Milei kissing the ring at Davos unfolded like a Shakespearean comedy, where his supporters characterized his groveling presence among his economic masters as “fighting Davos elites.” The courageous “libertarian” praised Davos as “social benefactors” and “heroes.” “Let no one tell you that your ambition is immoral,” he told the room of woke and rapacious oligarchs. In the end, he looked nothing like a modern maverick, but more like a confused Don Quixote, trying to fight something he doesn’t remotely understand.

Iraqi security sources are warning of an ISIS revival in the country, which coincides all too neatly with the spike in Iraqi resistance operations against US bases in Iraq and Syria, and with widening regional instability caused by Israel’s military assault on Gaza.

Is there a US footprint in the current escalation between Iran & Pakistan?

With all eyes on the current crisis in relations between Iran and Pakistan, geopolitical expert S.L. Kanthan suggests that since Pakistan is a strategic country for the US, it can be used by Washington in the current conflict to:

Encircle and attack Iran from one side;

Disrupt China’s Belt and Road Initiative;

Harass India if the latter exhibits too much autonomy in the future;

Establish influence over Afghanistan.
The pundit considers the current escalation between the two nations as a US proxy war on Iran.
