Iran - Mass Protest and Foreign Pressure

It seems that Iranian mass protest has been weakened, both, by elementary fear of the protesters facing a bloody crackdown of the regime and by increasing opposition against foreign influence deciding over Iran's future.

There are voices from the region confirming the participation of armed rioters in the protests, described as foreign mercenaries serving as 'agents provocateurs' for Israel's Mossad and decided to create chaos in a volatile situation.

An Iranian observer, referring to official sources, said that 3.000 armed rioters should have been arrested in the past days. And there should have been some 'foreign intelligence officers' among them, according to another source from inside Iran.

US president Trump's special interest in saving the lives of just these guys might have been the true reason for his declaration that any killing of prisoners would have immediate military consequences in order to 'protect the people of Iran'.

Iran's response that no killings were intended, in addition to diplomatic pressure from Saudi Arabia, Turkey and other countries might have eased the tensions for now. And a simultaneous temporary closure of Iran's airspace has already been abandoned by the regime, thus restoring civil air traffic again.

The internet, however, has been down today for the seventh day.

While Elon Musk's Starlink initiative could be successfully blocked by the regime, now France is allegedly trying to smuggle Eutelsat into Iran, the European version of Starlink. in order to ensure communication.

The USA, now, are moving a carrier strike group from the South China Sea to the Middle East, being aware that, this time, the Islamic Republic will fight for its survival with everything they have, including their naval rocket force.

There is even a direct threat against Trump, shown
on Iranian TV and published by a US news center:

The Persian warning is a reminder of an earlier rifle assault on Trump
that wounded his ear: "This time there will be no error ..."
اين بار خطانمى رود
The situation remains as it is. Two enemies are confronting each other: The Islamic Republic in a precarious economic and political situation, due to international sanctions and internal oppression on one side, and the military power of Trump's USA and its satellite Israel on the other side, appearing like an outdated dinosaur with small brains and big feet on the ground and the intention to trample on just another country in the Middle East, like Afghanistan and Iraq before.

Anyway, war could start within 24 hours !

Trump's U.S.A. Facing China in Latin America

My blog is widely known to concentrate on the dissemination of important news from various reliable sources. Thereby, I usually refrain from adding personal comments in order to avoid being suspected of manipulating my readers. However, I cannot help developing an own opinion about this or that subject.

Here now, is a remarkable external comment on late US policies regarding Latin America that I deem worth being noticed by our political leadership in the Western hemisphere:

The US Can’t Kick China Out of Latin America Anymore

Why Trump’s New Monroe Doctrine Is Already Too Late

When Trump talks about “taking back” Latin America, about restoring the Monroe Doctrine, around dragging Venezuela, Panama, Brazil, and the rest of the continent back under Washington’s exclusive jurisdiction, many people still interpret this as strength.

It isn’t.

It is exposure.

Only someone who has run out of cards flips the table.
Only a gambler close to bankruptcy reaches for robbery.

If U.S. sanctions still worked, if dollar hegemony were still intact, if political pressure, financial warfare, and diplomatic isolation still delivered results, Washington would not need to personally step into the mud — threatening kidnappings, floating regime-change fantasies, or openly talking about seizing resources as collateral.

This is not muscle-flexing. This is imperial afterglow.

And the key misunderstanding in Washington is this: the outcome of this struggle does not hinge on whether Maduro survives, or whether a government falls. It hinges on something much more banal, much more material.

When the U.S. looks down at what it still calls its “backyard,” it no longer sees American soil.

It sees Chinese soybeans growing in the fields. Chinese cranes loading containers in the ports. Chinese power grids, telecom systems, roads, and railways quietly humming underneath daily life.

This is more powerful than ideology. That is infrastructure, the backbone of economy.

And infrastructure does not disappear on command. Removing China from Latin America is removing the infrastructure and collapsing the fragile economies.

The Real Endgame: Resources, Collateral, and a Dollar Under Pressure.

Trump’s Venezuela obsession is not about democracy, human rights, or even oil in the traditional sense. It is about collateral.

The United States is cornered by its own balance sheet.

In the coming year alone, Washington needs to roll over and issue roughly five trillion dollars in new Treasury debt just to service maturing obligations. But fewer and fewer countries are willing to absorb U.S. debt at scale. Commodity trade is slowly de-dollarizing. If the U.S. is forced to monetize its own debt by printing money to buy Treasuries, inflation becomes uncontrollable.

That path cannot be allowed.

So the theory emerging in Washington is simple: secure massive pools of real assets — oil, gas, rare earths, minerals — re-peg them to the dollar, and restore confidence through material backing.

Venezuela. Greenland. Latin America.

On paper, Venezuelan oil reserves are worth tens of trillions. In reality, Venezuelan oil can't be monetized so easily.

Venezuela’s Oil Trap: Why China Cannot Be Replaced.

Venezuelan crude is among the most difficult on Earth to monetize. It is extra-heavy, buried deep, and requires extremely sophisticated extraction, upgrading, and transport infrastructure.

Only two countries on Earth have the technical and industrial depth to build and operate such systems at scale: China and the United States.

China already did it.

China buys roughly 70% of Venezuela’s oil. China financed, built, and operates much of the infrastructure that makes that oil usable and exportable.

If China is pushed out, who replaces it?

American oil majors — Chevron, ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips (COP) — have no incentive to sink one hundred billion dollars over five years into facilities that could be expropriated the moment political winds shift again. The risk profile is suicidal.

And even if U.S. companies did step in, who would they sell to?

China is the only buyer large enough, patient enough, and technically compatible with this type of crude. If China is expropriated and sanctioned out of Venezuela, retaliation is inevitable. Supply chains will be disrupted. Markets will close. Sanctions will travel both ways.

Washington’s Venezuela fantasy collapses under its own economic logic.

Jerome Powell, are intended to end the independent status of the US Notebank.

Iranian Protests - Suspicion of Foreign Ivolvement

Important UPDATE on January 13-15 included !

Anti-government protesters have again flooded the streets of Iran, despite the authorities resorting to lethal force against them. Human-rights groups are reporting hundreds of deaths in nationwide protests. The Islamic regime has ordered counter-rallies in an attempt to regain the initiative. And the government is warning the US not to intervene in the biggest challenge to its rule in years. Niloofar Gholami from DW's Farsi Service provides analysis. [DW on January 12]

Jakarta - Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi accused the United States and Israel of participating in bloody demonstrations that erupted in 92 Iranian cities, killing hundreds.

Araghchi said Iranian authorities had evidence that the United States and Israel were involved in several days of anti-government demonstrations, killing 544 people.

“We have a lot of documents proving that the United States and Israel have been involved in terrorist activities in Iran in recent days, ” he said in a statement to foreign diplomats in Tehran on Monday, January 12.

The senior Iranian diplomat added that former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also admitted that [Israeli intelligence agency] Mossad agents guided the terrorist movement within the mob.

“we will investigate this issue, but those statements that contributed to the increase in deaths are responsible for this development", ”Araghchi continued.

“Western countries condemn our police as worse than terrorists. They (the West) failed to condemn the genocide of more than 70,000 people in the Gaza Strip and the deaths of more than 1,000 Iranians in the hands of the United States and Israel. "Today, they support Iran's terrorists", he said.

The demonstration began with a traders protest in Tehran on 29 December 2025. They protested the sharp depreciation of the Iranian Rial [currency].

On December 30, student crowds participated in demonstrations leading to riots in many cities in Iran.

The peak of the riots occurred on the evening of Thursday, January 8, when at least 13 civilians, including a three-year-old child, were killed in the mob's attack. Authorities also announced the deaths of 38 law enforcement officers

Tehran Mayor Alireza Zakani said the mob burned 25 mosques and damaged 26 banks, three medical centers and 10 government buildings, as well as more than 100 fire trucks, buses and ambulances.

The Iranian authorities designated the rioters as terrorists and accused Israel and the United States of being involved in the arrangements for peaceful demonstrations, leading to the riots.

Citing Sky News, the U.S.-based Human Rights Activist News Agency reported that 544 people were killed in bloody demonstrations in Iran.

The American media also stated that more than 10,681 people had been arrested and transferred to prison.

The semi-official Tasnim news agency reported on Sunday, January 12, that as many as 109 Iranian security personnel were killed during bloody demonstrations.

[Voice of Indonesia on January 12]

The accusation of Iran's Foreign Minister Araghchi have been distributed, as well, by semi-official media on Mainland China.

伊朗外长阿拉格齐11日表示，有明确证据表明伊朗近期发生的骚乱和打砸公共设施等行为与以色列情报和特勤局（摩萨德）有关。

前美国国务卿蓬佩奥11日在社交媒体中提到摩萨德特工在伊朗街头活动。阿拉格齐表示，伊朗警方正遭到“恐怖分子”的袭击，而这一切都是蓬佩奥公开认定的以色列特工指使的。

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi stated on the 11th that there is clear evidence linking the recent riots and vandalism in Iran to the Israeli intelligence and secret service (Mossad).

Former US Secretary of State Pompeo mentioned Mossad agents operating on the streets of Iran on social media on the 11th. Araqchi stated that Iranian police are being attacked by "terrorists," and that all of this is being orchestrated by Israeli agents, as publicly identified by Pompeo.

[央广网 CNR， China Mainland, January 12]

Iran's Foreign Ministry summons Western Ambassadors to show them
videos of violent protesters. If that's true, the diplomats should know.

The above X-post came from an Iranian woman who seems to be a supporter of the regime.
She posted the British travel document of an exiled Iranian youth whom she named a 'Mossad mercenary'. That guy in his 20ies should have succeeded to flee from a crackdown of Iranian security on a group of Mossad agents. He was allegedly transferred to Erbil in Iraqui Kurdistan, where he might have tried to get a new document at the British Consulate General. It is unclear, if this was the reason for the Iranian government to summon the British ambassador for a second time these days as was reported elsewhere. Anyway, this travel document, granted by the British Home Office, seems to have been misused as it expressly excluded its use on any visit to Iran.
==> Listen, as well, to a related comment from Al-Jazeera. Professor Hamid Dabashi from Columbia University (NY) argues Israel has infiltrated otherwise legitimate anti-government protests in Iran to instigate chaos.

Another X-post came from an 'Iraqui writer and politician' referring to Iranian sources. Thereafter Mossad agents, who had been captured in a crackdown of Iranian security forces on armed rioters in the city of Kermanshah, were using SIM cards from the Iraqui Kurdish provider ASIACELL in the border region where network coverage is extending into Iranian territory. Such SIM cards were allegedly used by Mossad terrorists during the Iranian internet blackout to communicate with their partners in Israel (named the 'Zionist entity').

The Times of India reported a threatening development:

Allied governments warning its expatriates to immediately leave Iran.



Iran has escalated its nationwide internet blackout by deploying military jammers to disrupt Starlink satellite connectivity, cutting off a vital lifeline for protesters and activists. Monitoring groups report more than eighty per cent disruption to satellite traffic, while GPS interference has created near-total blackouts in key areas. Experts warn this marks a new era of digital repression. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump says he will speak to Elon Musk about sending Starlink access to Iranian protesters, raising fears of further geopolitical escalation.
[Editor: Such Starlink access is being seen as illegal by Iranian authorities]

Warships from China, Russia, and Iran have arrived in South Africa for BRICS+ naval exercises, stirring tensions with the United States under President Donald Trump. The week-long drills, dubbed “Will for Peace,” focus on maritime safety, joint operations, and protecting shipping lanes. Critics question why an economic bloc holds military exercises, especially with internal political tensions. Ukrainian expats protested Russia’s involvement, while South African activists condemned U.S. operations in Venezuela, demanding Maduro’s release. Analysts warn Pretoria risks being caught between U.S. pressures and Global South alliances. Economically and geopolitically, South Africa faces a delicate balancing act amid growing international scrutiny.

Somalia - China Competing with Israel

Somaliland is an autonomous region in northern Somalia that has sought independence since the 1990's. Declaring its own secession from Somalia, yet without being recognized by international organisations like the United Nations.

Recently, Israel recognized Somaliland as an independent and sovereign country and established diplomatic relations on December 26, 2025. However, this move was widely condemned by the international community (such as China, the Arab League, the African Union, and the United Kingdom), reiterating its support for Somalia's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and emphasizing that any status change requires dialogue. Therefore, international mainstream views still regard Somaliland as part of Somalia, not as an independent and sovereign country.

Israel might have its reasons for that, possibly hoping to increase its military presence in a region which is strategically important to ensure Israeli ship traffic in the southern Red Sea, namely in the Strait of Hormuz where Israel's enemy Yemen is quite near.

On its 2nd page for December 30, 2025, China's official paper "People's Daily", overseas edition, expressed concern and opposition to Israel's step to establish diplomatic relations with Somaliland, a step that simultaneously raised the suspicion of other regional players.

This comes shortly before China's foreign envoyee Wang Yi is starting his traditional visit to African states at the beginning of the year, this time first visiting Somalia's capital Mogadishu. China's interest for Africa makes part of a global initiative to extend its economic and political ties.

Declaration of China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian
at the ministry's regular press conference on Dec. 29, 2025:
外交部发言人—中方坚决反对以色列承认索马里兰
China firmly opposes Israel's recognition of Somaliland.

Quotation:
Dr. Amani al-Taweel, the Director of the African Program at Al-Ahram Center for Studies, believes that the step reflects an Israeli insistence on pursuing policies that ignore the African and regional contexts, even if it leads to a clash with countries with direct interests in the region.

She considered that this was taking place under American cover. She adds that the most dangerous thing is a transformation of the 'Normalization with Israel' into a tool that grants political legitimacy to separatist entities, which may encourage similar movements at the Horn of Africa and Sudan.

وترى مديرة البرنامج الأفريقي بمركز الأهرام للدراسات، الدكتورة أماني الطويل، أن الخطوة تعكس إصرارا إسرائيليا على انتهاج سياسات تتجاهل السياقين الأفريقي والإقليمي، حتى لو أدت إلى صدام مع دول ذات مصالح مباشرة في المنطقة

واعتبرت أن ذلك يجري في ظل غطاء أميركي. وتضيف أن الأخطر هو تحوّل التطبيع مع إسرائيل إلى أداة تمنح شرعية سياسية لكيانات انفصالية، بما قد يشجع حركات مماثلة في القرن الأفريقي والسودان

Further News of the Day:

While searching the Arabic networks for additional material on Israel's approach of Somaliland, I stumbled over the Latest Trump Cheese. It is about his announcement to fight Mexican drug gangs on the ground. Same goes with Colombia. And Cuba isn't even worth dealing with. All Trump could do to Cuba, so he said, is to seize or destroy it. If my readers argue the above quoted paper stems from Yemen, I can assure you that the same information is just being disseminated by serious Western media like Deutsche Welle DW.
Trump is simply going on a rampage, and he seemingly doesn't need any drugs for that.

US Navy Seized Russian Flagged TankerSuspected of Carrying Venezuelan Oil

Footage posted by US Southern Command and Homeland Security secretary, Kristi Noem, appears to show the US military intercepting a Venezuela-linked tanker in the Caribbean Sea on Wednesday, January 7. It was released on the same day US forces also intercepted and seized the Russian-flagged Marinera in the north Atlantic.

The Marinera, also known as M/V Bella 1 should have been accompanied for a certain time by other Russian ships and observed by a Russian submarine in the North-Eastern Atlantik. Moscow protested the seizure.

BREAKING Trump ordered Kidnapping ofVenezuela's President Nicolas Maduro

Maduro arrives at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on Jan. 4, 05:00 CET

International media are reporting the kidnapping of Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro and his wife in the frame of a nightly attack on Venezuela's capital Caracas. US Delta forces should have carried out the operation on behalf of US president Donald Trump who intends to put him to trial "for his crimes" before a NY court. At the moment, Maduro and his wife are being held aboard US warship "Iwo Jima" but nobody knows for sure. Even Maduro's vice-president didn't know their whereabouts during the first hours.

This comes even before a probably planned attack on Iran discussed earlier today on my last blogspot.

And who will be next ? Maybe the Canadian Prime Minister to enforce a US-Canadian unification, or the Queen of Denmark because of raw materials and a cold-resistant Inuit workforce expected on Greenland ?

It should be noted that anti-Maduro protesters from Venezuela took to the streets, as well, in order to celebrate the Maduro kidnapping, but that depends much on the place of their exile in neighbouring countries. In Bogotá, Colombia, they succeeded in blocking the local traffic and, thus, triggered a regional traffic warning from the authorities. Some time later, that manifestation allegedly should have been dissolved by its participants. In Buenos Aires, Argentine, Venezuelan refugees are celebrating the Maduro kidnapping. Yet, there are Argentinian protesters, as well, opposing the US incursion and further Trump plans "to run Venezuela". No wonder, this is the country of "chainsaw president" Milei.

On the contrary, Mexico came about with a clear stance of Mexico's President Sheinbaum against the US kidnapping.

Iranian Protests - US Pretext for Military StrikesAre Trump & Netanyahu Planning Joint Action ?

Beginning on 28 December 2025, mass demonstrations erupted across multiple cities in Iran amid a deepening economic crisis and widespread dissatisfaction with the government. While initially sparked by frustration over skyrocketing inflation, rising food prices, and the severe depreciation of the Iranian Rial, the protests quickly evolved into a broader movement demanding an end to the Islamic Republic's rule.

Beginning with shopkeepers and bazaar merchants in Tehran, the demonstrations soon spread to universities, drawing in large numbers of students from across the country.

US president Trump immediately reacted on his own platform Truth Social and announced "military help for the protesters" to achieve their goals. As severe economic problems in Iran can be related not only to administrative problems of the regime, but for an essential part, as well, to the sanctions imposed on the country in the frame of an alleged development of nuclear weapons, Trump's interference could therefore be seen as a pretext to continue bombing further nuclear facilities.

Trump Warns of Possible Airstrikes Against Iran - Russia Urges Restraint

The Kremlin on Tuesday (December 30) called on all parties to avoid escalating tensions over Iran, after US President Trump stated that Washington would support another large-scale airstrike against Iran.

Reuters reported that the US military joined Israel in a 12-day military operation against Tehran in June, attacking three major Iranian nuclear facilities. Trump stated at the time that the operation had "destroyed" Iranian nuclear facilities, but later US assessments found that the attack primarily damaged one of the facilities, named Fordow.

Trump held a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Monday, December 29. He stated that Tehran might be trying to restart its weapons program after the US airstrikes in June. Iran denies possessing a nuclear weapons program.

Trump said, "I've seen reports that they're expanding weapons facilities, etc., and if that's the case, they're probably using somewhere else, not the facilities we destroyed."

Pezeshkian: Iran Will Respond Strongly to Any Attack.
The Associated Press (AP) reported that Iranian President Pezeshkian said on Tuesday that Iran would respond strongly to any attack. This appears to be a response to Trump's warnings about Iran resuming its nuclear program.

Pezeshkian wrote on the social media platform X, "The Islamic Republic of Iran's response to any brutal aggression will be severe and deterrent." However, he did not elaborate further.

Russia, however, called for de-escalation. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the media, "We believe it is necessary to avoid any actions that could escalate regional tensions, and first and foremost, dialogue with Iran is essential."

He stated that Russia will continue to deepen its close relationship with Iran.

Taiwan - China Ready for War in 2027

Update on 1st January 2026 added further down:
Support of One-China stance by 'Friendly Nations'

A draft Pentagon report reviewed by Reuters last week argued that China expects to have the ability to launch a war and win against Taiwan by the end of 2027 at the latest, a point that coincides with the centenary of the founding of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. 2027 has been seen as the point at which an invasion may occur.

Some analysts said that this time is not an established goal, and it should perhaps be understood as a starting point, that is, military operations will be feasible from 2027, and the use of force is Beijing's last choice. In order to avoid Taiwan's resistance, as well as direct confrontation with the United States, Beijing certainly hopes to allow Taiwan to make concessions and compromises in advance as much as possible without using force, such as imposing a blockade and opening negotiations with Taiwan. A Taiwanese security official pointed out: “China is trying to gradually advance control of the entire archipelago through various forms of ‘extreme pressure’ means.” He added that Beijing intends to reshape the international order in accordance with its own goals.

Comment from "blueprinteditor" for the Beginning of a New Global Era in 2026 Today's world is led, either by morally degraded guys like Trump, Netanyahu and their Epstein “friends in spirit“, each of them rotten in an individual way, or by sober strategists like Putin or Xi JinPing, coming together with lots of national leaders who want to ameliorate the fate of their people whatever it costs. But “whatever it costs“ implies in most cases the need to “do like the successful are doing“, and which “naturally“ excludes the presence of some basic morality in daily politics. What we observe is the presence of intelligent actors in a “pro-China alliance of the unwilling“, while the “pro-Trump alliance of the dumb“ is assembling all those mediocre guys and freaks like Robert Kennedy jun or Elon Musk, some of them united in their hate of “stinking academics“, meanwhile seen as the people's good-for-nothings. By the way, the expression “stinking academics“ originally refers to a classification used during China's Cultural Revolution when many Chinese lived on the brink of starvation. An elevated formation, once seen as the entrance into a better and easier personal life experience in the West, has now been replaced by the ideology of “shooting your teacher instead of learning from him“. This, at least, is a trend of thought that has silently swapped from the USA into Western Europe during the last decades and the fatal results of which can already be observed in the country I live in.

Admonition to Self-Examination on the Threshold of a New Year

UPDATE included on December 29 / 30

Here is some morality for the everyday US citizen who would like to look deeper into the Epstein files, yet doesn't know how to read them right. Be careful not to break the rules, like Epstein did in a different way, by "hacking" the redacted files rather than copying them into a better looking text sheet. Furthermore avoid to get your eyes overworked by reading too much. Isn't X-Mas a rare opportunity to search your own heart and abstain from everything your government wants to protect you from ?

=> Properly sealed PDF-file from the US Department of Justice
(DOJ) on a case of human trafficking as reported by an NGO <=

Unredacted segments from NGO report (" Hope for Justice "),
as reported by US based medium The Tennessean (Nashville):

The report included in the release of the Epstein files is dated August 1, 2019, two pages and heavily redacted. The unredacted segments of the report do not name Epstein, nor does it say if the victim who made the report lives in Nashville or had any connection to the city beyond calling the nonprofit office.

An investigator with the nonprofit took a report from a victim who said she'd been sex trafficked twice — when she was about 5 and again at 17, the document says.

The victim "recalled being forced to live under the house in a crawl space and at times were made to live there as well," the report says. When he was around 5 years old she was taken to Florida and reported there were several children there with her.

When she was 17, she was taken to the U.S. Virgin Islands where "she was 'sold' again," the report says. Epstein's private island was in the Virgin Islands.

The victim told investigators she was taken to an area that looked like a horse stall, where she and other young girls were forced to engage in sexual activity.

"She recalled one man in his 30's, with brown hair and wheel chair bound, who gave instructions to the other men as to what they should do to the girls," the report says.

The victim said she couldn't break free until she was 30, and she called Hope for Justice to help other women who were victimized.

The report ended noting the "allegations involving sexual exploitation and sex trafficking should be forwarded to the FBI's New York Field Office" to be included in an investigation file on or about a redacted name.



Epstein's "Lolita Express"

=> US Department of Justice: Ghislaine Maxwell, main
accomplice of Jeffrey Epstein, sentenced to 20 years <=

Epstein probably exposed or corrupted other celebrities
as well, in order to conceal his secret activities.

Author of the above article is a Chinese "creator of military content".

Biographical Data:

- Jeffrey Edward Epstein (*1953 in Brooklyn NY - †2019 Metropolitan Correctional Center NY).
Epstein was born into a Jewish middle-class family. He began his professional career as a teacher at Dalton School. After his dismissal from that school in 1976, he entered the banking and finance sector before starting his own firm. He became a successful American financier & convicted child sex offender. In prison, he committed suicide.

- Ghislaine Maxwell (*1961 near Paris, France).
Maxwell was born into a Jewish family. Her mother engaged in 'holocaust research'. After her father moved to Britain, his daughter was raised near Oxford. She later began her studies at Oxford University. In 1991 she moved to New York City where she met with Jeffrey Epstein and became his lover for some years, simultaneously working as some kind of a 'housekeeper' for him. In 2021, Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison for covering up Epstein's sexual traficking and related crimes.
