How does US democracy survive Donald Trump?
People panic. They imagine one man can destroy everything. They talk about collapse as if it stands one election away. However, that view ignores how the system actually works. It ignores structure, it ignores incentives. It ignores history. The system already survived far worse The United States did not face its first crisis under Trump.…

Iran’s leaders: Kill millions, we won’t step down
At the most basic level, leadership carries responsibility. If leaders truly cared about their population, then they would step down when their rule produces suffering, isolation, and death. In other words, this is not an abstract moral idea. Rather, it is a concrete test of responsibility. Therefore, we must ask a direct question. What does…

Does Trump shows how to avert WW3 with military superiority?
Of course, he can also get closer to it. But this article talks about military superiority. The strike on Iran was not just about Iran. It was a message. And the real audience was not Tehran. It was Beijing and Moscow. When Donald Trump authorizes a strike that removes a top Iranian leader within hours,…

Will a New Monroe Doctrine bring peace?
The international system is entering a phase of open instability. Power no longer concentrates in one center, nor does it move predictably through established institutions. Instead, it fragments across regions, alliances, and competing economic blocs. The West still possesses enormous military, financial, and technological advantages, yet its ability to shape outcomes has clearly diminished. At…

WW3: Why Trump’s 50% military increase may prevent escalation

In an age of overlapping wars, collapsing norms, and nuclear escalation, many people want to believe that someone sane sits at the top. Someone restrained, someone…

Reversed roles: A Smart U.S. president and a dumb Israeli one
History sometimes delivers ironies that shape global politics. The United States, the world’s most powerful country, elected a president described by his own top advisor as “as dumb as shit.” Israel, a far smaller state, is led by a man with an IQ estimated above 140, a survivor of decades in office, and a master…

Can Trump become a dictator?
The United States still looks like the world’s strongest democracy. It has elections, courts, and a constitution that limits power. Yet democracies do not collapse overnight. They erode step by step. Leaders test the system, discover weak points, and go further. Donald Trump has already shown the ambition to push boundaries. He questions elections, attacks…

Trump vs the banks? Or just another power grab?
They say Donald Trump broke from the system. That he disrupted the global financial order, clashed with central banks, and terrified the architects of Western capitalism. But the truth may be far less revolutionary and far more calculated: what if he never opposed the system—only wanted to own it? What appears as rebellion might be…

Can the real boss Peter Thiel control Donald Trump?
Peter Thiel is one of the most powerful men alive (if you want to sue me, read this). He does not seek the spotlight like Donald Trump, yet his influence stretches further. He built PayPal, seeded Facebook, and operates in elite financial and technological circles. Unlike Trump, he does not crave attention. He wields power…
