SCFR Online – Opinion: In the war between Iran and the United States, the main battlefield was not defined solely in the military domain; rather, the battle of narratives in cyberspace—particularly through memes—reached a decisive level.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Only one month after the beginning of the Ramadan War, maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz decreased dramatically, with Bloomberg announcing a reduction of 103 vessels; Brent oil prices rose by more than 50 percent, and gasoline prices in the United States increased by 31.4 percent. Additionally, benchmark gas prices in Europe showed a 73.4 percent increase.
SCFR Online – Note: After approximately five months of political deadlock and institutional confusion, Ali al-Zaydi has finally been selected as Iraq’s Prime Minister. Al-Zaydi’s selection as Prime Minister represents a positive sign of the completion of the government formation process and the beginning of a new phase in Iraqi politics and governance. The emergence of a young, technocratic figure from the third generation of politicians—in a context where the country has been administered by traditional figures for decades—revives hope that Iraq may perhaps distance itself from the repetitive cycle of crises and experience a new path of stability, efficiency, and regional convergence.
SCFR Online – Note: Europe’s refusal to align with the United States in the war against Iran is not a temporary tactic, but rather a sign of strategic divergence and a move toward forced autonomy.
SCFR Online – Note: The militarization of artificial intelligence has eroded the boundaries of ethics and responsibility in warfare, transforming contemporary conflicts into arenas where human decision-making has become increasingly marginalized.
SCFR Online – Note: Over recent decades, support for the Zionist regime has been one of the few issues commanding bipartisan consensus in US foreign policy. Since the Cold War era, Republicans and Democrats have generally agreed on the necessity of preserving the security and survival of the Zionist regime as Washington’s most strategic ally in West Asia—and indeed, globally. However, developments in recent years—particularly the Gaza war, escalating regional conflicts, the expansion of tensions into Lebanon, and this regime’s recent warmongering against Iran—have caused this traditional consensus, especially within the Democratic Party, to face significant fractures.
SCFR Online – Note: Following the resumption of the US and Israeli regime’s war against Iran on February 28, certain divisions have emerged within the United States regarding this issue, both among the public and among political factions.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The internal situation of the Israeli regime during the 40-day war can be analyzed from several perspectives. The popularity levels of Benjamin Netanyahu, the Likud Party, and the ruling coalition led by Netanyahu until February 28, 2026, remained approximately the same as during the preceding year. The most recent factor that had somewhat increased Netanyahu’s popularity was the advancement of the 2024 war with Hezbollah Lebanon. Subsequently, his popularity temporarily increased during the 12-day war with Iran, but after the war, it returned to its previous state.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An international lawyer said legal capacities cannot be exploited without political and diplomatic resolve and action; therefore, regional and international cooperation “around the axis of the recent advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict should be placed on the agenda of the diplomatic apparatus of the new government.
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: The “Majdal Shams” incident has very clear dimensions and does not need any discussion or research to discover its cause or causes. In addition, the attack on Majdal Shams, whose residents are mainly Syrians and supporters of the Syrian political system and axis of the resistance, has no benefit or achievement for Hezbollah and the Palestinian resistance.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asian issues said: The Zionist regime, which has been in a war of attrition with the Palestinian Resistance for nearly ten months, is simultaneously under pressure from other fronts of the war.
Strategic Council Online – Since the start of the military aggression of the Zionist regime in Gaza, the Yemeni Islamic resistance, by drawing new lines of its foreign policy, has practically become one of the “effective actors” in the field developments related to the war in Gaza.
Strategic Council Online – Guest Opinion: After the start of Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, the Palestinian Resistance groups tried to present a new tactic in line with the interests of the Resistance, which resulted in the longest war against the Zionist regime since the beginning of the announcement of the existence of this regime. One of the major actors of the Resistance front, which has become a security concern in the past decades against the national security doctrine of the Israeli regime, is undoubtedly Lebanon’s Hezbollah.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on international issues said that the Security Council, General Assembly Human Rights Council, and other UN bodies from now on, even if they don’t want to, will have to include the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice in their future statements and resolutions. Calling the Israeli regime “occupier” and referring to its illegal actions in the Occupied Territories against the Palestinians is a political and legal failure for this regime and its supporters.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: The former ambassador of Iran in Jordan emphasized that the possibility of the Zionist regime’s army attacking Lebanon is high and said it is unlikely the ceasefire negotiations and the release of prisoners will play a deterrent role in preventing the war between this regime and the Hezbollah, the consequences of which cannot be avoided.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The clashes between Hezbollah and the Zionist regime started the day after the October 7 operation and have continued until today. These conflicts have had an upward trend, both in terms of the type and quality of military equipment used and the extent of the conflict zone.
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: Recently, Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime, announced the dissolution of its war cabinet. To examine the dissolution of the Israeli war cabinet, we must examine the conditions before its formation.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Following Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, the Zionist regime has been involved in three important fronts, namely the Gaza Strip, the West Bank of the Jordan River, and the north of Occupied Palestine, among which the developments in the northern front have inflicted the most significant damage and pressure in the battlefield and psychologically on the Zionist regime.

Strategic Council Online—Opinion: The “Majdal Shams” incident has very clear dimensions and does not need any discussion or research to discover its cause or causes. In addition, the attack on Majdal Shams, whose residents are mainly Syrians and supporters of the Syrian political system and axis of the resistance, has no benefit or achievement for Hezbollah and the Palestinian resistance.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asian issues said: The Zionist regime, which has been in a war of attrition with the Palestinian Resistance for nearly ten months, is simultaneously under pressure from other fronts of the war.
Strategic Council Online – Since the start of the military aggression of the Zionist regime in Gaza, the Yemeni Islamic resistance, by drawing new lines of its foreign policy, has practically become one of the “effective actors” in the field developments related to the war in Gaza.
Strategic Council Online – Guest Opinion: After the start of Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, the Palestinian Resistance groups tried to present a new tactic in line with the interests of the Resistance, which resulted in the longest war against the Zionist regime since the beginning of the announcement of the existence of this regime. One of the major actors of the Resistance front, which has become a security concern in the past decades against the national security doctrine of the Israeli regime, is undoubtedly Lebanon’s Hezbollah.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on international issues said that the Security Council, General Assembly Human Rights Council, and other UN bodies from now on, even if they don’t want to, will have to include the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice in their future statements and resolutions. Calling the Israeli regime “occupier” and referring to its illegal actions in the Occupied Territories against the Palestinians is a political and legal failure for this regime and its supporters.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: The former ambassador of Iran in Jordan emphasized that the possibility of the Zionist regime’s army attacking Lebanon is high and said it is unlikely the ceasefire negotiations and the release of prisoners will play a deterrent role in preventing the war between this regime and the Hezbollah, the consequences of which cannot be avoided.

Strategic Council Online—Opinion: Recently, Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime, announced the dissolution of its war cabinet. To examine the dissolution of the Israeli war cabinet, we must examine the conditions before its formation.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Following Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, the Zionist regime has been involved in three important fronts, namely the Gaza Strip, the West Bank of the Jordan River, and the north of Occupied Palestine, among which the developments in the northern front have inflicted the most significant damage and pressure in the battlefield and psychologically on the Zionist regime.
SCFR Online – Opinion: In the war between Iran and the United States, the main battlefield was not defined solely in the military domain; rather, the battle of narratives in cyberspace—particularly through memes—reached a decisive level.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Only one month after the beginning of the Ramadan War, maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz decreased dramatically, with Bloomberg announcing a reduction of 103 vessels; Brent oil prices rose by more than 50 percent, and gasoline prices in the United States increased by 31.4 percent. Additionally, benchmark gas prices in Europe showed a 73.4 percent increase.
SCFR Online – Note: After approximately five months of political deadlock and institutional confusion, Ali al-Zaydi has finally been selected as Iraq’s Prime Minister. Al-Zaydi’s selection as Prime Minister represents a positive sign of the completion of the government formation process and the beginning of a new phase in Iraqi politics and governance. The emergence of a young, technocratic figure from the third generation of politicians—in a context where the country has been administered by traditional figures for decades—revives hope that Iraq may perhaps distance itself from the repetitive cycle of crises and experience a new path of stability, efficiency, and regional convergence.
SCFR Online – Note: Europe’s refusal to align with the United States in the war against Iran is not a temporary tactic, but rather a sign of strategic divergence and a move toward forced autonomy.

SCFR Online – Note: Over recent decades, support for the Zionist regime has been one of the few issues commanding bipartisan consensus in US foreign policy. Since the Cold War era, Republicans and Democrats have generally agreed on the necessity of preserving the security and survival of the Zionist regime as Washington’s most strategic ally in West Asia—and indeed, globally. However, developments in recent years—particularly the Gaza war, escalating regional conflicts, the expansion of tensions into Lebanon, and this regime’s recent warmongering against Iran—have caused this traditional consensus, especially within the Democratic Party, to face significant fractures.
SCFR Online – Note: Following the resumption of the US and Israeli regime’s war against Iran on February 28, certain divisions have emerged within the United States regarding this issue, both among the public and among political factions.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The internal situation of the Israeli regime during the 40-day war can be analyzed from several perspectives. The popularity levels of Benjamin Netanyahu, the Likud Party, and the ruling coalition led by Netanyahu until February 28, 2026, remained approximately the same as during the preceding year. The most recent factor that had somewhat increased Netanyahu’s popularity was the advancement of the 2024 war with Hezbollah Lebanon. Subsequently, his popularity temporarily increased during the 12-day war with Iran, but after the war, it returned to its previous state.
