United States Begins Military Preparation against Iran. by MadeInTokyo(op):
United States has began moving military assets across the world towards the middle east for a major military operation against Iran .

Currently Iran has been under nationwide protests for over a week now , with citizens demanding an end to the Islamic style government of Ayatollah Khameni and demanding a return to the Persian style of government similar to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Joradan, and Kuwait who still practice Monarchial style of government .

Several US military planes have started arriving various US bases in Europe where they will be rerouted to the middle east in the coming days.

China and Russia will as usual only issue condemnation and press statements, they will do nothing to confront the United States military face to face despite them signing defense/military treaty with Iran, syria and Venezuela.
Russia and China are the most useless military allies the world has ever seen.

🚨🇺🇸🇨🇳🇻🇪 WHY VENEZUELA MATTERS: TRUMP’S MOVE MAY HAVE SHAKEN CHINA’S GLOBAL STRATEGY

Trump’s action in Venezuela is not regional politics, it directly targets China’s most critical vulnerability: energy dependence.

China buys 60-90% of Venezuelan oil and 85-90% of Iranian crude, together accounting for roughly 30-35% of its total oil imports.

Another 35% of China’s oil comes from Middle Eastern suppliers vulnerable to U.S. pressure, giving Washington potential influence over up to 70% of China’s energy supply
.

Under those conditions, Beijing’s ability to launch a high-risk operation against Taiwan becomes severely constrained.

This weakens China’s military planning in the Indo-Pacific and disrupts its long-term strategy to project power beyond Asia.

It also forces China to squeeze Russia harder on oil prices, increasing the economic strain on Moscow’s war effort.

The U.S. gains strategic breathing room globally, strengthening its ability to meet commitments in Europe and elsewhere.

Meanwhile, China suffers a major setback in Latin America, a loss of leverage abroad, and a blow to Xi’s image of control and inevitability.

A post-Maduro Venezuela could open access to years’ worth of information on corruption networks, covert financing, sanctions evasion, and foreign influence operations, not just regionally, but globally.

That intelligence windfall may reshape how power is understood, exercised, and constrained in the years ahead.

In short, Venezuela is not a side story.

It is a pressure point in a global system defined by energy, leverage, and timing.

If Trump’s move achieves even part of its strategic promise, historians may one day view it not as a regional intervention, but as a pivotal moment in the great power competition of the 21st century.

1.) Nicholas Maduro - Venezuela

2.) Ayatollah Ali Khamenei - Iran

3.) Vladimir Putin - Russia

4.) Nigeria


These four countries need urgent US intervention to bring peace, progress and stability as soon as possible.

Tulumbu supported Kamala Harris and even made financial donations for her election.

Tulumbu rushed and finalised the joining of BRICS

Let Trump finish dealing with the big fishes, he is just a small fry.
