This is the first informed, intelligent assessment of this conflict.
All the US leadership had to do was to act on something no one else was willing do.
Trump, Hormuz and the End of the Free Ride
For half a century, Western strategists have known that the Strait of Hormuz is the acute point where energy, sea power and political will intersect. That knowledge is not in dispute. What is new in this war with Iran is that the United States, under Donald Trump, has chosen not to rush to “solve” the problem. In Hegelian terms, he is refusing an easy synthesis in order to force the underlying contradiction to the surface.
The old thesis was simple: the US guarantees open sea lanes in the Gulf, and everyone else structures their economies and politics around that free insurance. Europe and the UK embraced ambitious green policies, ran down hard‑power capabilities and lectured Washington on multilateral virtue, secure in the assumption that American carriers would always appear off Hormuz. The political class behaved as if the American security guarantee were a law of nature, not a contingent choice. Their conduct today is closer to Chamberlain than Churchill: temporising, issuing statements, hoping the storm will pass without a fundamental reordering of their responsibilities.
Trump’s antithesis is to withhold the automatic guarantee at the moment of maximum stress. Militarily, the US can break Iran’s residual ability to contest the Strait; that is not the binding constraint. The point is to delay that act. By allowing a closure or semi‑closure to bite, Trump ensures that the immediate pain is concentrated in exactly the jurisdictions that have most conspicuously free‑ridden on US power: the EU and the UK. Their industries, consumers and energy‑transition assumptions are exposed. Continue reading Trump, Hormuz & the End of the Free Ride
Nicolas Sarkozy announced plans to pursue a vigorous policy of diversity and métissage. Concretely, this means giving preference to minorities (Mohammedans) in job hiring and prosecuting those who do not comply. In other words, affirmative action as a government policy from which none are exempt.
In his message Sarkozy insisted that the French people must change, that there will be dire consequences if they don’t, and that not to intermarry racially is bad for the survival of the country. Thus he amalgamated the concepts of preference for minorities in job hiring with that of the need for the French to intermarry racially.
The ongoing Western social engineers’ jihad to deracinate the white race by herding European women into the warm embrace of Third World migrants has not, so far, gone as swimmingly as the architects of globo-homo race communism had hoped.
Indeed, the majority of the migrant-native sexual relations in Europe appear to be the non-consensual type.
Enter the crack social scientists of EU-funded academia to figure out what went wrong so as to expedite the mongrelization.
Cuckold extraordinaire Rolf Degen, with funding from the European Research Council (ERC), explains that, while the male “refugees” are “highly open” to coitus with native German women, the women themselves exhibit “much lower openness” via Journal of Family Studies:
“This study examines partnership preferences of male refugees from Afghanistan and Syria who arrived in Germany between 2014 and 2016 and female residents of similar age…
Conflicts and political unrest in numerous Middle Eastern and North African countries have triggered a substantial migration of refugees to Western Europe in the last decade (OECD, Citation2017). Germany, in particular, received over 1,4 million refugees between 2014 and 2016, predominantly from Muslim-majority countries such as Syria and Afghanistan. The majority of these arrivals consisted of young, single men within prime marriageable age brackets* (BAMF, Citation2018; Sauer & Kraus, Citation2024). Facing a host-country partner market with a scarcity of co-ethnic individuals and restrictive policies on transnational marriages (Kraus, Citation2024; Rüdel & Joly, Citation2024), many of these refugees may consider forming partnerships with members of the host population (Nauck, Citation2008). The extent to which the German resident population is receptive to such partnerships remains a topic of ongoing public and academic discussion (Dancygier et al., Citation2019; Kogan et al., Citation2023; Kuhlemann et al., Citation2025)…
Overall, these results show a general high openness among male refugees towards partnering with a woman from the resident German population…
In contrast, comparable analyses for the resident female population show a much lower openness towards partnering with an Afghan or Syrian refugee (see figure 2b). Both women with and without a migration background clearly prefer a partner born in Germany over a Syrian or Afghan refugee.”
*How curious that all of the “refugees” from Syria and Afghanistan just happen to be military-age single men — a fact which, when “white supremacists” observe it, is a “conspiracy theory”!
Of all the war-torn “refugees” fleeing oppression, they all just happen to be horny men who arrive on European soil with no women of their own to fornicate with.
What are the odds the demographic migrant cookie crumbles like that — serendipity for the social engineers who aim to force blonde women into the arms of brown carpetbaggers!
Israeli forces carried out a series of attacks against Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) infrastructure in Iran’s capital yesterday, the military says.
Iran fires more missiles at Israel after United States President Donald Trump threatens to bomb Iran back to “the Stone Ages”. During his address to the nation on Wednesday, Trump said that Washington is close to achieving its war objectives.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson says Tehran will continue to fight back for as long as US-Israeli strikes continue. Esmaeil Baghaei adds Tehran “will not tolerate this vicious cycle of war, negotiations, ceasefire”.
Trump lashed out in an interview published on Wednesday in The Telegraph newspaper, saying he was strongly considering pulling out of NATO.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio gives a complete outline of why the Trump administration finally took action against Iran. Delivering the full explanation in under two minutes, Secretary Rubio directly and succinctly states why U.S. military action was needed, and what the ultimate end game is for that action. WATCH:
Trump says he is considering a NATO exit as allies resist cooperation in US-Israel war on Iran. Here are the fractures emerging within the alliance.

“I always knew they were a paper tiger,” Trump lashed out in an interview published on Wednesday in The Telegraph newspaper, saying he was strongly considering pulling out of NATO.
The same sense of disdain towards the allies was echoed a day earlier by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who told Al Jazeera that if the transatlantic alliance was “just about defending Europe” but not the other way around, that’s “not a very good arrangement”. That, Rubio said, is going “to have to be re-examined”.

Prime Minister Viktor Orbán of Hungary has repeatedly stressed that migration is not a complex puzzle that needs compromise, but a simple legal issue: those who enter unlawfully should not be allowed into the country and must be denied legal status if they do. Orbán has insisted that “there is a simple rule: you have to be able to protect your own borders,” and that Hungary’s experience — with only a handful of asylum applications accepted when strict enforcement is in place — proves that firm border control works if political will exists.

Trump: “Well, I think it’ll [Hormuz] automatically open, but my attitude is, I’ve obliterated the country.”

President Trump has posted on social media this morning, clearly signaling he is further down the road towards an off-ramp:
.
All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us.Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil! President DJT
The reaction was a drop in the price of oil…

American mainstream media and Europe’s left manipulate statistics to support claims that illegal aliens and migrants do not increase crime and that they benefit the economy. The data tell a different story. Immigrants are disproportionately represented in arrests, convictions, prison populations, and on welfare rolls across EU countries.
In Germany, foreigners represent roughly 17% of the population but accounted for 41.8% of all criminal suspects in 2024 and approximately 39% of all convictions in 2023, a new high. In France, foreigners make up about 7.8% of the population by citizenship, yet account for 17% of all criminal suspects, more than twice their population share, rising to 40% of suspects for vehicle theft, 38% for burglary, and 31% for unarmed robbery.
In Italy, foreigners are approximately 8.9% of the population but are implicated in 28% of murders and attempted murders, 33% of assaults, and 41% of rapes, and make up 31% of the prison population as of mid-2022. In Spain, foreigners represent 13% to 14% of the population, account for 28% of criminal convictions, and make up 31% of the national prison population, rising to 49% in Catalonia. Belgium presents the most extreme disparity: foreigners are 13% of the population but constitute 43% of the prison population, with roughly 30% of those foreign inmates holding no valid residence permit.
