BREAKING: UN-linked diplomat Mohamad Safa resigns, claiming he’s ‘giving his my diplomatic career to leak’ that the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use against Iran.

He warns of a ‘crime against humanity’ and ‘nuclear winter,’ urging global protests to stop it.

Trump will stop at nothing to save his ego!

Safan writes:

“I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran.

“This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war.

“Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons.

“I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late.

“Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.”

Marine Expeditionary Units (MEU): Two MEUs are on the move towards the theater, including the 31st and 11th MEUs, potentially providing several thousand troops for amphibious or air assault support.
Army & Special Forces: The video highlights significant transport plane activity (C-17s) from bases across the US, transporting elements of the 82nd Airborne Division, 75th Ranger Regiment, and 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment
Force Estimates: While total figures are speculative, the US could be massing between 5,000 and 10,000 troops capable of air assault insertion
Potential Missions & Targets:

Island Seizure: A primary objective could be taking control of strategic islands in the Persian Gulf, such as Car Island, Abu Musa, and the Tun Islands
Strait of Hormuz Security: Operations might focus on securing islands near the strait to facilitate safer transit for commercial shipping and naval vessels
Risk Factors: The video notes the difficulty of operating near the Iranian mainland, particularly with Qeshm Island It also addresses the risk of Iranian drone and missile counterattacks
Timeline & Strategy:

Combat operations could potentially begin as early as mid-April, depending on the arrival of the second MEU
The strategy appears to favor air-mobile operations to pressure Iran by disrupting oil exports or securing vital maritime chokepoints

China profits from gas price surge, while Putin ends up with nothing

China is reselling record amounts of Russian LNG amid rising prices, Reuters reports.

Reselling has increased due to the decline in domestic demand in China, making exports more profitable.

Main buyers include South Korea, Thailand, Japan, India, and the Philippines.

Russian gas costs China $250 per 1,000 cubic meters, while the spot market price in Asia is $830.

China is reselling gas at a profit that could be three times higher than the purchase price. One shipment could bring up to $40 million.

After the war between the U.S. and Israel with Iran, LNG prices in Asia rose by 85% due to disrupted supply through the Strait of Hormuz.

BREAKING: Britain has fewer than 50 Storm Shadow cruise missiles left. The stockpile that once exceeded 200 was drained over two years of transfers to Ukraine to help Kyiv strike Russian targets deep behind the front line. The missiles worked. They hit command posts and ammunition depots and naval headquarters across occupied Ukraine and Crimea. They helped Ukraine survive. And now Britain has almost none left for itself, during a war being launched from its own airfields against a country that just hit a British oil facility with drones.

Brimstone anti-armour missiles sit at 25 to 35 percent of pre-war stocks. Paveway IV precision-guided bombs, the same weapon the RAF used over Libya and Syria, are at 30 to 40 percent. The National Audit Office estimates that Britain can sustain high-intensity combat operations for three to six weeks before requiring American resupply. Three to six weeks. The Iran war is already in its fifth week. If Britain were fighting it rather than hosting it, the cupboard would already be empty.

The Army is 10,000 soldiers below target. Type 45 destroyers suffer chronic propulsion failures requiring six to twelve months of repair. The F-35 and Typhoon fleet operates at 60 to 70 percent availability. The industrial base that would replenish stocks runs on rare-earth magnets manufactured in China, the same China that controls 90 percent of the permanent magnets in every guided missile Britain would need to fire and is currently being asked to broker the peace.

Any direct involvement beyond basing would require 8 to 15 billion pounds in emergency supplemental spending. National debt exceeds 100 percent of GDP. There is no majority in Parliament for funding a war the Prime Minister says is not Britain’s, fought with weapons Britain does not have, replenished by supply chains controlled by a country Britain needs to broker the ceasefire.

This is why Starmer says “not our war.” Not because of principle. Not because of legality, although his own advisors have told him the strikes are legally questionable. Not because of Iraq, although the ghost of Blair hangs over every press conference. Because of arithmetic. Britain gave its missiles to Ukraine. It gave its bases to America. It gave its diplomatic capital to a 35-nation meeting about reopening Hormuz “after the fighting stops.” And it has nothing left to give except words, which cost nothing and accomplish less.

Trump knows this. He mocked the Royal Navy in the Telegraph interview. He dismissed Starmer’s windmills. He called NATO a “paper tiger” because the paper is literal: Britain’s defence capability exists on paper. On the tarmac and in the magazines and in the recruitment offices, the numbers tell a different story. The story says that one of the six largest economies on earth, the country that once ruled a quarter of the planet, cannot sustain a shooting war for longer than six weeks without calling Washington for resupply.

The bases are full. The aircraft are American. The missiles are gone. The debt is real. And the Prime Minister stands at the podium and says this is not our war while the war takes off from our runways carrying weapons we could not replace if we tried.

Britain is not refusing to fight. Britain cannot fight. The doctrine is not a choice. It is an inventory report. And the inventory says zero.
