Iran publicly hangs 19-year-old Saleh Mohammadi

Iran publicly executes 19-year-old wrestling champion Saleh Mohammadi in open defiance—a direct thumb in the eye of the US and every voice that values basic human decency. His only offence: participating in January’s protests. The regime has just shown it gives zero fucks about international opinion.

Sources: Støre’s unilateral initiative provoked Washington, prompting Rutte to travel to Oslo

The extraordinary meeting of the Council of State at the Royal Palace in Oslo on Wednesday followed a serious misstep by Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, who convened a Nordic summit with Canada’s Mark Carney and signalled that an expanded Nordic region would pursue an independent security policy, emphasising the High North.

EU forces were prepared for combat with the USA in Greenland

Denmark’s war chest is nearly depleted, having already spent more than 500 billion on rearmament, with no sign of slowing. The Danes wish to retain control over Greenland and were prepared to stand up to the USA, while at the same time adopting an aggressively oriented stance towards Russia.

Støre hails Habermas as if his thinking still fit reality

Warnings went unheeded on national preparedness

2026 is the year of total preparedness, yet it seems strange that Norway holds no more than 20 days’ worth of aviation fuel and diesel in reserve. Sweden and Finland have 90 days. That no action was taken following the invasion of Ukraine is, in the view of SEB’s chief commodities analyst, Bjarne Schieldrop, remarkable.

Iran vows to drag the world into the abyss

Iran has resorted to its ultimate threat: bombing Gulf oil facilities. Such a move could send oil prices rocketing out of control, though that moment has not yet arrived. The USS Tripoli carrier strike group, carrying 5,000 battle-ready US Marines, is now heading for the region – prepared to seize and hold the Iranian coastline along the Strait of Hormuz if necessary to keep the world’s most critical shipping lane open.

Iran’s intelligence chief Esmaeil Khatib eliminated

Israel has taken out Iran’s intelligence chief, Esmaeil Khatib, the third member of the senior leadership to be eliminated. The IDF has been authorised to take them out one by one. The regime will be left without leaders. This affects its ability to issue command. The lines are broken.

Iran’s Foreign Minister makes no secret of the fact that Iran’s strategy is chaos, intended to force the world to halt the war. He points out that an increasing number of Western officials want the war to end. The same applies to the media. But in large parts of the world, the regime is not wanted. It has run its course, and it would be madness to allow it to remain in place after the effort to remove it.
