    Strategic Leverage: U.S., Iran, and the Battle for Global Chokepoints
    Mar 26 2026

  • The Hidden Strategy of the Iran War: Energy and Global Power

    The Hidden Strategy of the Iran War: Energy and Global Power
    Mar 19 2026
    While headlines focus on strikes and leadership eliminations, a far bigger story is unfolding beneath the surface. From the Strait of Hormuz to China’s energy dependence, from Iran’s terror network to shifting global power, this conflict is not just about the Middle East, it’s about the future of the world. Why did a senior U.S. counterterror official resign and blame Israel? What does the deployment of the USS Tripoli really signal? And how do oil choke points, global supply chains, and China’s ambitions all connect to this moment? IDF Spokesman (Res.) Doron Spielman unpacks the hidden strategy, the misinformation, and the next phase of a war that is rapidly escalating beyond what most people realize.
