Why the Israel-Iran Conflict Will Never End — And Who Actually Profits

Image
The Israel-Iran conflict is often portrayed as a clash of ideologies, religion, or nuclear ambition. But this narrative barely scratches the surface. Beneath the speeches, the airstrikes, and the diplomatic noise lies a deeper machinery — one powered not by patriotism, but by profit, control, and ancient designs. The war is not simply between two nations, but among systems, empires, and global forces that thrive on permanent instability. It’s a war engineered to last — not to end. 1.

The Battle of Chosin Reservoir during the Korean War stands as a testament to human endurance, courage, and the indomitable will to survive. Fought between November and December 1950, this brutal engagement pitted the United Nations (UN) forces, primarily comprised of U.S. Marines and Army troops, against the overwhelming numbers of the Chinese People’s Volunteer Army (PVA) and North Korean People’s Army (KPA).

Their survival story is one of tactical brilliance, emotional torment, and unyielding resolve as they fought to hold the line and protect thousands of r...

Battle for Taiwan’s Offshore Islands: Islands of Resistance

Image
The battle for Taiwan’s offshore islands—Kinmen, Matsu, and Penghu—marked one of the most intense and brutal conflicts in modern warfare. As geopolitical tensions between China and Taiwan escalated, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) launched a full-scale invasion, targeting these strategic outposts to establish a foothold for a broader assault on Taiwan. Utilizing cyberwarfare, hypersonic missiles, naval blockades, drone swarms, and relentless artillery bombardments, China sought to overwhelm Taiwan’s defenses. However, the battle was far from one-sided. Taiwanese forces, aided by their allies, mounted a fierce resistance, turning the islands into battlegrounds of urban warfare, tunnel combat, and naval clashes. The struggle for these islands reshaped global conflict lines and highlighted the resilience of Taiwan’s defenders in the face of overwhelming force. 1.
