SCFR Online – Opinion: The dissolution of the SDF, although considered an achievement for Turkey’s security, does not put an end to the challenges arising from the Israeli regime’s aggression and expansionism, refugees, and Syria’s fragility.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Concurrent with the official commencement of the United States’ economic war against our country, focusing on sanctions instruments, isolation, and economic pressure, what has now become increasingly important is the lack of alignment of other major global powers, especially China, with this policy.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The new US sanctions against Iran, despite extensive propaganda, face serious obstacles to success due to the ineffectiveness of sanctions tools and opposition from some of Tehran’s trading partners.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Following military failure, Trump has announced the implementation of sanctions and old economic pressures under the new label of “unprecedented economic operation” against Iran; however, Tehran can neutralize this blockade through four specific strategies.

Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asia affairs commenting on the unexpected resignation of a senior member of the Zionist regime’s Prime Minister Naftali Bennett’s party from the ruling coalition said: Bennett’s government is in a fragile position and one more resignation could end up in the government’s collapse.

Strategic Council Online – Netanyahu’s ouster should be seen as an important “turning point” in the developments of recent years in the occupied territories. During the past 12 years, Netanyahu made great efforts to advance anti-Palestinian plans. He is stepping down despite the fact that, contrary to his criminal objectives and actions, Palestine and the resistance groups not only have not been weakened but have achieved important dimensions of power and strategic balance in the occupied territories. At the end of Netanyahu’s 12-year presidency, the “myth of Israel’s invincibility” was shattered.

Strategic Council Online: If Trump is defeated and Joe Biden wins in US presidential race, the next government in the Zionist regime will be transferred to the Leader of the Blue and White Party Benny Gantz after 18 months, and this is considered a political game within the Zionist regime; but if Trump remains in power it is likely to extend Netanyahu’s term on the pretext of unfinished projects.
Hassan Hanizadeh – Middle East affairs expert
Strategic Council Online: Former Director General for Middle East Affairs at the IRI Ministry of Foreign Affairs, outlining the Zionist regime’s options to exit the current impasse, said: “Given the situation, the Tel Aviv government has suffered a meltdown and is unlikely to resolve it easily.” Qasem Mohebali said Netanyahu’s fall from power is still uncertain, noting that neither Netanyahu nor his rival Benny Gantz, the leader of the Blue and White center-right party, have won enough seats in parliament to form a government. Even if they form a coalition they cannot win more than half of the Knesset with 120 seats, he noted.
