🚨 Former President Hassan Rouhani admits that elements within the Islamic Republic want a wider, more destructive war to hasten the Mahdi's appearance.

Rouhani said some within the regime believe war must be escalated to hasten the Mahdi's appearance—a reflection of an apocalyptic strain of Mahdist ideology that views chaos and war as prerequisites for the Mahdi's return.

He also recalled a 2004 meeting with Ali Khamenei, who told him that an individual had proposed building a massive platform in Tehran for the Mahdi to deliver a speech upon his return, complete with a sound system powerful enough for the entire city to hear him.

The remarks provide a rare public acknowledgment that apocalyptic beliefs have influenced thinking within parts of the Islamic Republic's establishment.

J.D. Vance on Israel: Netanyahu and I didn't have a confrontational relationship. We had frank, yet friendly, conversations.


As I have said many times, Israel is a very good partner for us and one of the United States' allies, just like France, Britain, or other US allies. It is natural that there are sometimes disagreements between allies.

I think American media are overly focused on this issue. The reality is that my job is to advance the interests of no country other than the United States of America. Therefore, wherever our interests align with Israel, we talk about how to achieve common goals. And when my views differ from the Prime Minister of Israel, we talk about it frankly and openly.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan:

The Israeli government's goal is to sabotage peace efforts and separate Palestinians from Gaza, and this goal has not changed.

If possible, this government is trying to turn Gaza into a place where Palestinians are not present, a place where they cannot live.

However, Netanyahu will not succeed in this policy; the people of Gaza will continue to live in Gaza and shape their future there.
