*IRAN NOW FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE OF BRICS AND THE GLOBAL SOUTH*

●●● Key points from Pepe Escobar’s piece :

■ Key infrastructures nodes in Tel Aviv and Haifa have been destroyed.

■ Compound the cries of joy all across the lands of Islam to the massive psychological trauma inflicted on Israel.

■ The myth of Israeli invincibility has been definitely shattered.

■ Persian pride and trust in their own capabilities rules that they consider to have all the necessary resources to outlast the Zionist axis.

■ The real war is against BRICS+

■ Moscow may well supply more badly needed S-400s to Tehran

■ Beijing is already supplying material to Tehran for missiles production.

■ From Nigeria to Indonesia to Vietnam — BRICS members and BRICS partners — there’s a growing consensus that Iran must not be allowed to fall. The spell of unrestricted Western diktat has finally been broken. It takes a – failed – shock’n awe to break the camel’s back.

Even as top civilizational states are doing somersaults to outlast the Empire of Chaos and its masters’ drive to unleash World War III, there is no illusions in Moscow and Beijing that to confront this scenario, it’s imperative to act asymmetrically — with supreme cunning, instead of merely responding to provocations (which has been the predominant Russian playbook in the proxy war in Ukraine).
