The geopolitical chessboard’s latest move reeks of recycled scripts and hollow bravado. Democracy’s broken marionettes twitch to the same strings—sanctions, ultimatums, the threat of force masquerading as strategy. Netanyahu’s posturing, Trump’s transactional waffling, Tehran’s defiance… it’s all a propaganda circus where the audience stopped clapping years ago.

And here we are, again, watching centrifuges spin while diplomacy gets buried under bunker-busters and bruised egos. The ”maximum pressure” farce just tightens the noose around rationality. When did statesmanship devolve into a toddler’s tantrum with nukes?
