Likely that arms suppliers and other corporate shadowmasters run the world secretly and every few years, they decide which country should be bombed so they can make profits. Political reasons and international relations are just a facade for the world to keep busy.

I’ve never written a more “conspiracy theory” comment, but in my gut this Monday night, I feel this is true!

It is more of Israel - Iran conflict, given Israel’s constant announcements - from 1990s at least - that Iran is weeks away from building the bomb. decades passed. Israel’s leaders want to fulfill Their “Greater Israel” project and hence this frequent mayhem across Palestine, Yemen, Syria, Lebanon, iraq,iran, libya… They have few more countries in their list. And in most of these countries, the militant groups have been groomed/funded by them only, to keep things volatile. Israel never acknowledged about the nuclear weapons they have. The definition of hypocrisy has been buried long ago. It’s only human statistics now.

The Iran–Israel conflict is very real. Two countries are at the center of it, with several militant groups around them. Israel is geographically small; so even a single nuclear weapon could cause catastrophic damage. That fear is not imaginary.

But question is: why does the United States involve itself so deeply in the region?

The Middle East has long been a geopolitical crossroads. If global tensions between major powers like Russia, China, and the United States were ever to escalate, the Middle East would likely become one of the strategic theaters. From that perspective, Washington does not see the region as something it can simply step away from.

In reality, it is the logic of power politics.

Sometimes war is not just about enemies; it is about the structure of power itself.
