Lies Born in Moscow: How the USSR Created Anti-Israel Narratives That Live On to This Day
Anti-Israel rhetoric of the 21st century largely relies on constructs formed during the Soviet period. It is not about spontaneous slogans or a spontaneous street agenda, but about a systematic information campaign developed by the USSR’s special services and embedded in international institutions, academia, and media. Key concepts — “apartheid”, “colonialism”, “liberation movement” — acquired […]
Turkey called Al-Aqsa ‘one of our holy sites’: what 14 Muslim countries decided in Amman and how Israel responded
Turkey did not “declare” Al-Aqsa its property, but Hakan Fidan included it among the “shrines affecting the values of the Turkish people.” A joint statement by 14 states went much further, declaring all 144 dunams of the Temple Mount “a place of worship exclusively for Muslims.” On August 5, 2026, a special ministerial meeting on […]
Ukraine struck at the artery of Russia and Iran: wars in Europe and the Middle East merge into one global confrontation

Ukraine struck Russian-Iranian military logistics in the Caspian Sea: Tehran reported the death of a sailor and spoke of a response
Ukrainian long-range strikes have for the first time so clearly linked Russia’s war against Ukraine with the confrontation around Iran and American military facilities in the Middle East.

On the night of July 23, 2026, the Middle Eastern conflict escalated to a new level.

Israel lost the price of normalization: Saudi Arabia gained a path to the F-35 and uranium enrichment
American security guarantees, a civilian nuclear program, and advanced weapons were initially supposed to be the price for establishing relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel. Now Riyadh is receiving a significant part of this package without normalization — and this radically changes the strategic balance in the Middle East. U.S. President Donald Trump approved a […]
In “memory of children – victims of the war in Donbass”: in Bethlehem, white balloons, candles, and paper cranes – how the “Russian House” covers Russian propaganda with “memory of children”
In the “Russian House in Bethlehem,” they folded paper cranes, watched a Russian film, and released white balloons in memory of the children of Donbas. Behind the touching picture lies the state propaganda of the country that brought war to Ukraine in 2014 and then turned the deceased children into a tool of its own […]
Israel began transferring areas of Southern Lebanon: how will the ‘pilot zones’ work without Hezbollah’s weapons
On July 21, 2026, the Lebanese army began deployment in the settlement of Zuwtar al-Gharbiya in the Nabatieh district after the withdrawal of Israeli units from the transferred area. This became the first practical test of the American plan, according to which Israel must gradually change the location of its forces and transfer certain territories […]
Trump chooses between a truce and a big war: The US and Israel prepare for decisive days of conflict with Iran
US President Donald Trump faced a choice that could determine the further course of the war with Iran and change the situation throughout the Middle East.
