US plan: ‘Make Iran Texas again’
Senator Cruz wants to bring Texas-style weaponization to Iran, openly stating that Washington must arm terrorists
TEHRAN – Ted Cruz, the U.S. senator from Texas, has a reputation for rhetoric that often outpaces his grasp of its consequences. He was a central figure whose remarks fuelled the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, and he remains infamous among his constituents for fleeing to Cancun during a deadly winter storm that crippled the state’s power grid. On the world stage, he is a reliable advocate for American military intervention, from West Asia to South America.

The West’s double standards on police violence
TEHRAN- In the West, police pursue opposition figures all the way to hospital beds and call it “law enforcement.” In Iran, police restraint is labeled a “bloody crackdown.” This deliberate double standard is not a media mistake; it is the organized censorship of truth and a core component of the narrative war against Iran.

The hidden strategic toll of confronting Tehran
MADRID - In Washington, there remains a persistent temptation to treat a confrontation with Iran as a modular option. Limited strikes, punitive operations, calibrated actions aimed at restoring deterrence without altering the broader strategic balance. That logic has proven effective in other contexts, but with Iran, it is increasingly less so. A US attack on Iranian territory would not be interpreted as a discrete operation or as another episode in a long-standing rivalry. It would be read as a strategic rupture: the moment when the accumulated power of the United States in the Middle East begins generating adverse effects that reinforce one another.

MADRID - There is an art, almost a science, to the construction of a journalistic narrative that, under the appearance of balance and rigor, guides the reader toward a predetermined conclusion.
