The US and its allies including Australia don’t give a fig about Iranian or Palestinian lives. If they did, they wouldn’t be starving Iranians with sanctions that block medicine, food and fuel. They wouldn’t be funding insurgents who turn protests violent, ensuring the regime cracks down harder. They wouldn’t be threatening war while pretending to care about “the brave Iranian people”.
Right now, the USS Abraham Lincoln and nine escort warships are sitting in the Persian Gulf like a loaded gun aimed at Iran’s heart. Not one Australian media outlet can independently verify what this means for Australians when the shooting starts. Are we up shit creek with America again?
As we navigate the crises of 2026, a specific machinery of falsification has transformed Iran into a global “whipping boy.” This analysis deconstructs the myths of the nuclear menace and walks through the recent Starlink catastrophe—a digital trap that left thousands vulnerable.
Trump’s two-front bluster—Venezuela in the Caribbean, Iran in the Middle East—is theatre. The real war is quieter: Palantir-style surveillance turning society into an open-air prison.
A drunk’s shopping list on the Resolute Desk: Trump eyes Venezuela oil, Greenland “hard way,” bombs for Bibi. Napoleon’s ghost laughs as the rat-trap snaps shut. Multi-front madness meets manufactured war in the Gulf.
