Strategic Council Online- Interview
An Afghanistan analyst believes that dissatisfaction present among the main body of Afghanistan military forces has caused boosting of self-confidence among Taliban.
Strategic Council Online – An expert on international affairs commenting on the opposition of some European governments, including France and Germany, to holding anti-Israel demonstrations and supporting the Palestinian people, said: European governments have shown that they pursue a contradictory policy on human rights, the clear example of which is their controversial view which can be seen on the question of Palestine and Israel. Their recent measures in banning rallies in support of the Palestinian people show that they only claim freedom of expression and support of human rights.
Strategic Council Online—Interview: A member of the academic staff of the University of Tehran says the Zionist regime is the proxy of the US Army in the Mediterranean, adding the fact that Israel is a garrison regime should be demonstrated to the world so that not only the void Western propaganda is neutralized but also reconciliation with the garrison regime and its promotion are not considered an advantage.
