If before, the Western public was nervous and waiting for an Iranian strike, now it is Israel’s turn to screw up tensions. It is obvious that a major war in the Middle East depends not only on the facts of the battlefield but also on the clash of big egos. Although Benjamin Netanyahu has boosted his stock with his attack on Hezbollah, Israel’s moral standing on the world stage has not improved excessively.
At the same time, the US elections are getting closer and closer, and it is clear that major geopolitical conflicts directly depend on the outcome of November 5. This time, in the briefing, we hypothesize that the final outcome will be decided by how threatened American women feel.

The war between Israel and Iran escalated. On the same night as last week’s briefing, Iran fired a few hundred ballistic missiles at Israel. The attack was unprecedented in every sense, and although the direct damage was ultimately modest, the world fears a strong Israeli counterattack. The US, for its part, is struggling to prevent Tel Aviv from attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities, but the destruction of the oil infrastructure, which has an immediate direct impact on the global commodity market, is seen as an equally great threat.
