In a precise and urgent military operation, Israel has successfully neutralized the most sensitive military nuclear facilities and the accelerated long-range ballistic missile production centers of the Iranian regime, deeply buried underground.

The fanatical Iranian regime has never abandoned its strategy to annihilate Israel. It has continued advancing its nuclear weapons development, accelerated long-range ballistic missile production, and financed and armed its terror proxies across the region.

Why the action was essential and urgent

Recently, the Iranian regime began installing its military nuclear facilities and accelerating ballistic missile production deep underground in fortified bunkers, precisely to make them impossible to neutralize. It was therefore critical to act urgently before the regime could complete this diabolical scheme.

The Iranian regime: a machine of death and destruction

1. The Iranian regime is a machine of death and destruction, both at home and abroad. It has squandered and devastated Iran’s resources and infrastructure to fuel its destructive global agenda.
2. Its unprovoked attacks on Arab neighbors have once again proven that this is a regime that massacres its own people, attacks its neighbors in the Middle East, serves as the primary source of wars and terror in the region, and poses a danger to the entire world.
3. Hezbollah, Iran’s proxy in Lebanon, is attacking Israeli civilian communities with missiles and drones. Israel will do everything possible to neutralize all threats to its citizens on every front.
4. The Iranian regime already possesses missiles capable of reaching targets across the Middle East and Europe, and continues developing capabilities to strike the United States.
5. This operation is a gateway to peace, not an endless war. Working together against the Iranian regime will bring stability to the region and enable the expansion of the Abraham Accords.
6. The Iranian regime intentionally murders civilians, while Israel neutralizes the mass murderers.

Highlights for Europe:

7. Attacks on European targets prove that Europe is not immune. The fanatical Iranian regime developed long-range ballistic missiles capable of reaching Europe for a clear reason.
8. This operation severely damages the Iranian military industry’s production capabilities and disrupts the supply of weapons, drones, and missiles to Russia for its war against Ukraine.

This operation creates the conditions under which the Iranian people can finally take their future into their own hands and free themselves from the murderous regime that has oppressed and butchered them for 47 years.

Israel did not choose war — the Iranian regime imposed it. By precisely striking the regime’s infrastructure of death, Israel is defending not only its own existence but offering the entire region a historic opportunity for stability, security, and lasting peace.

🚨🔥 IRAN NOW OR NEVER 🔥🚨

THIS IS THE EXISTENTIAL WAR FOR THE VERY EXISTENCE OF ISRAEL & THE UNITED STATES.

The fanatical Iranian death cult was rushing nuclear weapons + long-range missiles DEEP UNDERGROUND to annihilate Israel… then strike Europe and America.

As of March 3, 2026, Iranian state media and officials are screaming “war crime” at the top of their lungs. A girls’ elementary school in the southern port town of Minab, Hormozgan province, was allegedly hit during the first day of U.S.-Israeli strikes on February 28. The Shajareh Tayyebeh school — a bright-colored building packed with 7- to 12-year-old girls — supposedly took three missiles. Death toll according to Tehran: started at ~40, ballooned to 85, then 115, 150, 165, and now 175–180 “mostly children.” Graphic videos of rubble, scattered backpacks, schoolbooks, and wailing mothers flooded global media within hours. UNESCO condemned it as a “grave violation of humanitarian law.” Malala Yousafzai called it heartbreaking. The regime demands the world stop the strikes and punish the “Zionist-American aggressors.”

Sound familiar? It should. This is the exact same script the Iranian regime and its Islamist predecessors have run for nearly 50 years whenever civilian bodies pile up — especially kids — and they need a propaganda win.

Exhibit A: Cinema Rex, Abadan, August 19, 1978

A packed movie theater showing The Deer. Doors chained shut from the outside. Gasoline poured. 377 to 470 people burned alive or suffocated — the deadliest arson attack in history at the time.

Immediate narrative from Khomeini’s revolutionaries and their Western useful idiots: “SAVAK false-flag! The Shah’s secret police did it to discredit us pious Muslims!” Flyers, mosque sermons, opposition radio from exile hammered it. The lie spread like wildfire. It turned public opinion decisively against the monarchy, helped ignite the 1979 Islamic Revolution, and became holy writ in regime textbooks.

The truth? Four radical Islamists tied directly to Khomeini’s faction planned and executed it. One confessed in 1979 (before being executed to shut him up). Iranian newspaper Sobhe Emrooz spelled it out in 2001: Islamist perpetrators. The regime immediately suppressed the story and kept the “SAVAK did it” myth alive for domestic consumption. Perfect false-flag reversal: commit the atrocity, blame the enemy, harvest the rage.

Exhibit B: Ukraine International Airlines Flight PS752, January 8, 2020

IRGC Tor-M1 missiles blew a civilian Boeing 737 out of the sky minutes after takeoff from Tehran. All 176 dead — Iranians, Canadians, Ukrainians, Swedes, Brits.

Day 1–3: Total denial. “Technical failure, engine fire, Boeing’s fault, CIA disinformation.” Crash site bulldozed. Black boxes hidden. Journalists threatened.

Once videos of the missiles went viral and Western governments produced radar proof: pivot to “human error… caused by U.S. adventurism and tensions after Soleimani’s killing.” Foreign Minister Zarif literally tweeted that America created the “atmosphere” that forced the “mistake.” Leaked internal IRGC documents later proved they knew within hours it was their missiles. The cover-up was deliberate, coordinated at the highest levels. Protests erupted inside Iran — “IRGC murderers!” — met with live gunfire.

Same pattern: they did it, lied for days, blamed the Great Satan, used the bodies to deflect blame and rally the base.

The 2022–2023 School Poisonings (Mini-Version of the Playbook)

Hundreds of girls’ schools hit with suspected chemical agents. Students collapsing, vomiting, hospitalized. Regime: “Mass psychogenic illness… or Zionist/CIA chemical attacks on our innocent daughters!” Arrested “foreign agents,” daily horror stories on state TV. Reality (per dissidents, UN reports, leaked evidence): hardline elements inside the regime or Basij-linked groups, designed to terrorize families and justify more repression. Again, externalize the blame.

Now Enter Minab, February 28, 2026

Exact same neighborhood playbook, upgraded for wartime.

•  The school sits 600 meters from an IRGC naval base/barracks that had been publicly identified as a legitimate military target for years.

•  U.S. and Israeli strikes that day hammered IRGC command nodes, missile sites, and naval facilities across southern Iran — part of the campaign that killed Supreme Leader Khamenei and top brass.

•  Iranian state media: “Three missiles deliberately targeted the school while classes were in session.” Death toll inflated hourly. Emotional imagery everywhere.

•  U.S. State Department / CENTCOM: “We do not deliberately target schools.” “Looking into reports.”

•  Israel: “Not aware of any strike on that specific location” or outright “the regime itself killed them.”

•  Independent analysts and Iranian dissident channels (already active on X and Telegram): Schools were ordered closed that morning by the regime itself. Videos show Iranian SAMs malfunctioning and falling back over nearby Bandar Abbas. The school was literally built/expanded right next to the military base — classic human-shield doctrine the IRGC has used for decades (see: Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza).

•  No independent journalists or forensic teams allowed in. No black-box equivalent. No satellite imagery released by Iran showing pre-strike school occupancy. Just regime footage and rapidly escalating body counts.

The Questions No One in Tehran Wants Answered

1.  Why was a girls’ elementary school operating at full capacity on the first day of a massive, publicly announced U.S.-Israeli air campaign?

2.  Why place children’s classrooms 600 meters from an active IRGC naval missile base? Coincidence, or deliberate human shielding?

3.  How does the death toll climb from “dozens” to 180+ in 48 hours with zero independent verification? (Compare to real collateral events where numbers stabilize or drop after forensics.)

4.  Why the immediate, coordinated global media blitz with identical wording (“deliberate massacre of schoolgirls”) before any crater analysis or munition fragments are shown?

5.  If it was a precision U.S./Israeli strike on the adjacent military target, why not show the miss distance, the type of weapon, or the secondary explosions from IRGC ordnance that could have caused the school damage?

This is not skepticism for its own sake. It is pattern recognition based on 48 years of documented Iranian regime behavior.

Whenever the Islamic Republic (or the revolutionaries who birthed it) causes, enables, or stands next to mass civilian death — especially involving schools or children — the response is identical:

1.  Inflate numbers aggressively.

2.  Flood with emotional props (backpacks in rubble, chained cinema doors, body bags).

3.  Blame the eternal external enemy (SAVAK → U.S. → “Zionist entity” → CIA/Mossad).

4.  Use the dead as human shields in the information war to stop military pressure, extract concessions, or rally domestic support.

The Minab amplification is already working exactly as designed. International bodies are condemning based solely on Iranian-sourced figures. Western media is running the regime’s graphics. Dissidents warning “Cinema Rex 2.0” on February 27 were proven right within 24 hours.

Until an independent, on-the-ground investigation with access to the site, autopsies, munition fragments, and unedited flight data or radar logs is allowed — which the regime will never permit — the only rational response is extreme skepticism. History has taught us the lesson in blood and lies: when Tehran points the finger at outsiders over dead Iranian children, check who actually had the motive, the proximity, and the track record of weaponizing corpses.

The pattern is not a conspiracy theory. It is a 50-year operating manual.

And Minab is just the latest chapter.

Why Has France Been Neither Forewarned Nor Involved in the Greatest Liberating Epic of the Twenty-First Century?

On 28 February 2026, the United States of America and the State of Israel, in a concert of implacable resolve, unleashed the operation that sealed the fate of the mullahs’ regime. Massive, surgical, inexorable strikes on Tehran, Natanz, Fordow, the missile arsenals, the headquarters of Hezbollah and the Houthis: within a few hours, Trump and Netanyahu accomplished what a pusillanimous West had deferred for twenty years. They struck at the very heart of the terrorist theocracy that, for decades, has been irrigating global jihad with its venom. It is the greatest liberating epic since the fall of the Berlin Wall. And France? “Neither forewarned nor involved.” Thus it was declared.

Semantic Analysis: Macron, Offended, Reproves… and Borrows the Semantics of Objective Responsibility “Involved”

The formula that Emmanuel Macron let fall on 28 February, at the opening of the Defence and National Security Council, remains a jewel of presidential language, at once icy and charged with contained rage:

“France has been neither forewarned nor involved, just as, moreover, the whole of the countries of the region and our allies.”

The neither… nor… constitutes a double absolute negation, almost childish in its spite, which betrays the president stung to the quick, like a child whom one would have excluded from the table of the great. Not “we were not fully informed,” but indeed: zero information, zero participation. It is the cry from the heart of one who knows himself relegated.

“Forewarned”: the diplomatic verb par excellence, which implies with palpable bitterness: “Trump and Bibi did not even deign to grant me a simple courtesy telephone call.” Supreme humiliation for one who still dreamed of himself as “European leader”.

“Involved”: here resides the stroke of involuntary genius. Macron knowingly borrows the legal semantics of objective responsibility in civil law: one is responsible for the damage by the mere fact of being “involved” in the causal chain, even without intentional fault. He does not say “we did not actively participate.” He asserts: we bear no implication whatsoever, be it passive, logistical, of intelligence or of mere complaisance. It is the absolute denial. He thus covers himself juridically and penally: “If Iran wishes to take revenge, let it not turn toward us.”

In a single period, Macron passes from personal vexation to moral reprobation (“this is dangerous, diplomacy is needed”), while washing his hands in the manner of Pontius Pilate. Classic Macronian: posture of proclaimed grandeur, flight from responsibilities, and victimhood erected into an art.

Why Is No One Informing Macron Anymore? Because Macronism Is Saadé, Hezbollah and Business… and Because CMA CGM + MSC Are the Golden Exit Planned for the Post-Élysée Macron Inner Circle

The true reason, which the great organs of the press take good care not to state clearly, nevertheless stares one in the face for years.

Rodolphe Saadé, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CMA CGM, the world’s third-largest shipping company, Franco-Lebanese by birth, a long-standing intimate of Emmanuel Macron, was elevated to Officer of the Legion of Honour by the President himself on 26 February 2026 – the very eve of the strikes – during an intimate ceremony at the Élysée Palace, in the presence of one hundred and seventy-five carefully selected guests, without any official photograph being authorised. The synchronism is perfect.

The facts, long established by Georges Malbrunot in Le Figaro, by Ynet, Enab Baladi and Intelligence Online:

• After the explosion of the port of Beirut in August 2020, Macron went there… accompanied by Saadé. Moreover, the said explosion was due to stocks of dynamite stored there, of which no one was unaware.

• The presumed pact is crystal-clear: France consents to remain silent on the Hezbollah arsenals stored in the port (and on its cardinal role in the trafficking of captagon, arms and drugs that fuel jihad). In return, CMA CGM snaps up the contract for the reconstruction of the port market as well as the operation of the container terminal (2022, for ten years, for hundreds of millions of euros).

• Saadé also operates in Latakia in Syria, a fiefdom of Assad, Hezbollah and Iran, and in Tripoli in northern Lebanon.

• The port of Beirut remains, as everyone knows – Western services, Israeli services, the Lebanese themselves –, an essential logistical hub for Hezbollah.

Immediate consequence in 2026: an open war against Iran means the possible closure of the Strait of Hormuz or the explosion of insurance premiums – an existential catastrophe for CMA CGM and its seven hundred vessels plying the Asia-Europe routes via the Gulf. On the evening of 28 February, the group publishes an unequivocal communiqué: “All our vessels in the Gulf are to take shelter immediately.”

Macron cannot support the liberating epic. Supporting the strikes would amount to torpedoing the interests of his billionaire friend, the very one who provides him with an essential part of his media ecosystem (BFMTV, RMC, La Provence, La Tribune) and of his influence. Saadé is the economic and media backbone of Macronism.

And here we grasp the ultimate, almost testamentary dimension of this maritime stranglehold. For it is by no means fortuitous that this web does not limit itself to CMA CGM alone. MSC, the world’s largest shipping company, controlled by the Aponte family, maintains close and ancient links with the very heart of Macronian power, notably through the intermediary of Alexis Kohler, Secretary-General of the Élysée, whose family and professional networks have always been closely associated with these spheres of international shipping. CMA CGM and MSC thus constitute, in the mind of the Macron inner circle, the exit by the top planned for the post-Élysée: should the European project founder under the weight of its contradictions and accumulated failures, these two oceanic empires would offer the regime’s faithful the most sumptuous sinecures, seats on opulent boards of directors, and gilded retirements sheltered from political storms and alternations. The sea, ultimate refuge of the powerful in peril, would then become the haven where Macronism, once the Élysée is left behind, would continue to reign by proxy. Such is the sublime gateway of Macronism:

To reign over the seas like Neptune by realising the CMA CGM–MSC merger-acquisition.

Trump and Netanyahu know this perfectly well. Why warn a president whose entourage is structurally linked to the Iran-Hezbollah axis through the ports, and whose very future rests upon these same shipowners? Why run the risk of a leak? They have chosen the only rational option: France no longer exists as a reliable ally. It has become a mere compromised Franco-Lebanese-Italian-Swiss shipping subsidiary.

Neither Trustworthy Nor Neutral

Macron’s France has not been forewarned because it is no longer worthy of trust.

It is not involved because its president has chosen, since 2020, the camp of Saadé’s affairs rather than that of civilisation.

“Neither forewarned nor involved” is not a declaration of neutrality.

It is the public admission of a voluntary decline.

It is the phrase of a man who prefers to protect the portfolio of his oligarch linked to Hezbollah rather than participate in the eradication of the Iranian cancer.

While American and Israeli F-35s liberate the Middle East, France looks elsewhere, offended, so as not to ruffle its great maritime carrier.

Such is the “European sovereignty” à la Macron in 2026: to be a spectator of History… and to glory in it.

The greatest liberating epic of the century is accomplished without us.

And that is precisely what Macron deserves – though not France.

Portugal, long seen as a stable haven in Southern Europe, has been hit by an unprecedented political crisis since 2023: two consecutive governments have collapsed because of major corruption scandals. The 2025 Corruption Perceptions Index from Transparency International has just confirmed the country’s worst historical score. Behind the numbers lies a darker reality: undue influence in green-transition mega-contracts, opaque ties between politics and business, chronic judicial delays, and anti-corruption reforms that are moving far too slowly. Here is a complete, chronological, fully sourced investigation.

1. The CPI 2025 Alarm: The Worst Score in History

Published on 11 February 2025 by Transparency International, the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) 2025 gives Portugal 56/100 (down from 57 in 2024), ranking it 46th out of 182 countries. This is the lowest score the country has ever received.

• Trend: Steady decline since 2015 (peak of 64 in 2016). While Western Europe’s average is also falling, Portugal is well below the regional average (~64).
• TI Analysis: “Perception of public office being abused for private gain” worsened by recent scandals (lithium, green hydrogen). José Fontão, head of TI Portugal, speaks of “institutional degradation” linked to opaque public tenders and unregulated lobbying.

The government (XXV Constitutional, February 2026) responded on 10 February: “We lost one point and three places, but the ongoing reforms are not yet reflected in the data.” It refers to the June 2024 Anti-Corruption Agenda (42 measures, 17 already implemented).

2. Operation Influencer (2023-2026): The Scandal That Toppled António Costa

On 7 November 2023, the Public Prosecutor’s Office launched Operation Influencer: raids on 42 locations, including the official residence of socialist Prime Minister António Costa. Five arrests, including his chief of staff Vítor Escária (€78,000 in cash found hidden in books and wine boxes).

At stake: Suspicions of active/passive corruption, influence peddling and malfeasance in four massive green-transition contracts:

• Lithium mines in Barroso (Boticas) and Romano (Montalegre) – strategic EU battery mineral.
• Green hydrogen plant H2Sines and Sines 4.0 data centre (investment > €20 billion).

Key figures: António Costa (suspected of direct intervention), João Galamba (formally charged), Vítor Escária, Nuno Mascarenhas, Diogo Lacerda Machado…

The investigation remains active in February 2026.

3. Spinumviva (2024-2025): The Scandal That Toppled Luís Montenegro

Less than one year after taking office (March 2024), the minority right-wing government fell in March 2025 on a motion of no confidence linked to Spinumviva, a consulting company created by Prime Minister Luís Montenegro.

Revelation: Investigations by Expresso and Correio da Manhã showed Spinumviva receiving thousands of euros monthly from clients who secured ≥ €100 million in public contracts.

4. The Historic Landmark Case: Operation Marquês (2014-2026)

Former socialist Prime Minister José Sócrates (2005-2011) is still on trial for corruption, money laundering and tax fraud (€34 million presumed). Risk of prescription in early 2026.

5. International Assessments: Real Reforms, But Clearly Insufficient

GRECO (Council of Europe) – 5th Round Compliance Report, 2 September 2025: 0 recommendations fully implemented, 18 partially. Serious gaps in lobbying regulation and asset declarations.

Full PDF: Download GRECO Report

EU Rule of Law Report 2025 (July 2025): Same warnings.

6. Analysis: Why Does It Persist?

Portuguese corruption is not “widespread” like 1990s Italy, but systemic in big contracts (the green transition = golden opportunity). Justice is slow, lobbying stays in the shadows. The political class is seen as a closed circle (93 % of Portuguese say corruption is “widespread”).

Portugal is NOT the most corrupt country in Europe (Hungary and Bulgaria close the EU ranking with ~40/100).
But it has just recorded its worst historical score: 56/100 in Transparency International’s 2025 Corruption Perceptions Index (drop of 1 point and 3 places, 46th worldwide).

Two consecutive governments have fallen in less than two years over major corruption cases (Operation Influencer – lithium & green hydrogen – and Spinumviva). 93 % of Portuguese people consider corruption “widespread”. Lobbying remains unregulated, asset declarations are opaque, and justice is too slow.

In short: Portugal still sits in the upper half of Western Europe… but it is sliding backwards faster than any of its neighbours. The ecological transition that was supposed to be its proudest achievement has become its biggest source of suspicion. Without much deeper and faster reforms, the scandal → government fall → snap election cycle risks becoming Portugal’s new normal.
