An inevitable war with Iran?

Letters from O'Brien #62

Dear Mr Smith,

Usually, I wouldn’t write a follow up letter to a topic so quickly, but after writing about the Olympics and false flags I realised that the situation in Iran is rather pressing and thus my swift follow up. It seems war is inevitable, and it looks like Westerners will have to bear the burden of dealing with such a conflict.

THE SITUATION

You’ve probably seen media about the strike in the Golan Heights, in which 12 Syrian Druze people were killed while playing soccer. This rather strange ‘strike’ has been questioned by both sides; some suggest Iranian proxies, while others suggest that an Israeli air defence system malfunction resulted in the deadly incident. Regardless, this was quickly leveraged as one of many pretexts to launch strikes into Iranian and Lebanese territory.

Israel undertook operations in two convenient locations; targets were destroyed by the IAF outside of Beirut, whilst assassins took out a Hamas leader in Tehran. The Hamas leader in question was the one pushing for a peace deal with Israel. With him out of the way, the likelihood of peace any time soon in Gaza seems rather slim. The strikes also push both Lebanon and Iran into a retaliatory position; they have been attacked on their own soil, and politically this naturally warrants a response. And maybe that’s the point; these strikes were designed be deliberately provocative - to force a response.

It may seem strange that a smaller nation like this would seek to escalate conflict, but it shouldn’t. Biden recently confirmed with Netanyahu that the US will back Israel if any retaliatory strikes are taken by Iran or Lebanon. Iran has already told the US Security Council that they are preparing for a self-defence situation militarily, suggesting something is on the horizon. Israel has also announced it is preparing for a major retaliatory strike.

Biden has announced that 12 US warships are already in the region, ready to engage Iran if necessary. Israel needs this guarantee to undertake any serious conflict with Iran. Now that they have it, chances are a conflict will ensue in which Israel uses a retaliatory strike as justification to escalate.

AMERICAN MEDIA

What I found interesting following these strikes was the response. Mixed signals went out across the world. But only in the west was the rhetoric so clearly propaganda. The US in particular has a fascination with defending the Israeli-Zionist elites at all costs. Even the Israeli media apparatus is questioning the narrative; The Times of Israel has been reporting on the strange happenings, suggesting that Netanyahu’s party is seeking to escalate the regional conflict to hold onto power and achieve different goals.

The pro-war stance is essentially only held by major western media publications. This case of blind allegiance was evident both before and after the Netanyahu visit to congress. Now, following these strikes into Lebanon and Iran, conservative US media - namely Fox News - is pushing for further escalation. Ex-CIA operative Sean Hannity recently said that it was a disgrace that ‘Biden and Harris have pressured Israel to show restrain’ and that “the message should have been ‘go defeat the radical Islamic terrorists that killed the equivalent of 40,000 Americans in a day’”. He even had the audacity to say to the Israeli leadership “go win your war, we support you”. What can I say?  The entire US media apparatus essentially seems to be controlled by Zionists — something unique to America (even considering Israel itself).

RETALIATORY RESPONSE

With everything now in place, the most likely occurrence after a retaliatory strike will be a move towards Lebanon. The IDF leadership has already been briefed on moving into southern Lebanon to push out Hezbollah, whilst US bases in Iraq and Syria intercept any threats from Iran. The elite in Israel know that they must knock out Hezbollah’s ability to strike before any serious move can be made against Iran. Hezbollah’s ground-to-ground capabilities are far more powerful than anything that was wielded by Hamas. If Israel went directly for Iran, then Hezbollah would launch major strikes into Israel, overwhelming their defence systems. The US cannot shield from such a close attack undertaken using small missiles and munitions.

If Israel can neutralise Hezbollah’s threat in Southern Lebanon, then a war with Iran will be imminent. Chances are that a US intervention in the region will be deemed ‘necessary’ given the Iranian militaries size and technical ability to rival Israel.

Israel will sell this war to their citizens under the false pretence of ‘self-defence’ and of overcoming a ‘regional threat’. The facts suggest that this is clearly not true; the war thus far has been based on false pretences since the beginning, and these lies have been used to justify serious damage inflicted upon the civilian population. The original attack was quickly returned into a propaganda operation, but as time has shown most of the shock factor was forged; there were no ’40 beheaded babies’, there was no burning of victims, there was no mass use of RPGs to destroy houses. There was the use of Apache gunships to blow up hundreds of civilians in their cars and houses, there was reports of the Hannibal directive being given to soldiers, resulting in civilians (supposedly ‘Hamas hostages’) being killed by their own defence forces. Now in this recent series of events, provocative action is being taken to escalate the conflict into a full-blown regional war.

It seems clear that all of this is by design. The ruling party seeks to drag out the conflict to hold onto power and use this war to achieve insane religious goals in the region, namely the establishment of ‘Greater Israel’ stretching from the Mediterranean to the Euphrates in southern Iraq.

This has been obvious since the 1980s, when prime minister Oded Yanon said that Israel must reposition itself geopolitically and militarily and aim to turn all of its neighbours into smouldering piles of rubble. Then in the 1990s we got the ‘Clean Break’ report, where this doctrine was made even more evident, and that the US military would be key in achieving these regional war ambitions. In 2001 we got 9/11, and from then everything has conveniently fallen into place. Today it is no different.

Even the Israeli media is questioning the current situation; after all, they will be the first ones sent to the front lines or wiped out in a nuclear final option. America and the west are so blindly inundated with propaganda on this issue that it is disturbing to even consider. The ridiculousness was encapsulated by Hannity scorning Harris for suggesting that Netanyahu restrains himself and saying that America should support a war in the region. This is insane.

Iranian and Israeli civilians will pay a high price given the technological advancement of both nation’s militaries. It will likely be the largest war in the Middle East since World War 2, and the casualties will likely be similar as well. Given the context, America will be forced to respond, and before long western soldiers will be fighting and dying in the Middle East once again, all for this corrupt regime’s ridiculous war goals. The lies will be sold, and America will be forced to intervene, just like in 2003, just like in 2001, and just like in 1990. It never ends, but it should; it is obvious what is going on.

Sincerely yours

O’Brien
