Libya Could Supply the Oil the World Needs While Conflict with Iran Seethes, by Christopher Harvin and James Durso

14. April 2026 - 6:00
A defining pillar of President Trump’s America First agenda has been national energy security. Paired with the diplomatic momentum of the Abraham Accords, that strategy has reshaped regional alliances, strengthened U.S. partnerships and reinforced economic stability at home.

Iran: "US Unable to Win Our Trust" — the Diplomatic Culture Behind the Breakdown, by J. Ricardo Martins

14. April 2026 - 6:00
The failed negotiations between the United States and Iran expose more than a disagreement over terms: they reveal Washington’s inability to secure the one currency that matters most in Tehran: trust.

Iran’s Determination to Break Out from the Panopticon of Western 360° Containment, by Alastair Crooke

13. April 2026 - 6:05

What History Teaches Us About the Iran War?, by Hua Bin

13. April 2026 - 6:03
After my last essay in mid-March where I posited the view Iran has already won, I went on a family trip and didn’t spend much time following the day-to-day events in the Persian Gulf. It seems there has been a stream of unhinged rhetorics from Trump, the Mafioso thug with a spray tan. Also some...
