“TACTICAL ALLIES”
Who, why and from where
did the attacks in Iran come?
By Sir Charlattam
As we had predicted a few months earlier, the US was seeking to expand its theatre of operations against Russia by using its allies in the Middle East, Israel and Saudi Arabia.
The drone incursions
between 28 and the night of 29 January over Iranian skies in an attempt to
destroy several defence installations bear witness to this prediction. In
Esfahan, a massive explosion was recorded at a military factory, apparently by
a Drone armed with suicide explosives. Other drones targeting similar buildings
were shot down before reaching their targets. According to the Western media
and reports in the Gulf Arab media (especially Emirati), the attacks wreaked
havoc in depots and factories of drones supplied to Russia, suggesting with
incisive intent that it was Israel that carried out these actions, but was it
really an Israeli action?
For Tehran this attack
(in violation of Chapter VII of the UN Charter) was not Israeli. That does not
mean that Israel did not have the capability or at least the intention to do
so, but the targets targeted are certainly not in its interest. Whatever
explanations Iranian officials gave to support this conclusion, it was the
words coming out of the Pentagon and the State Department that confirmed it. An
anonymous US official pointed to Israeli involvement in the affair and this was
picked up by the less than credible “The Wall Street Journal” but it is clear
that this rumour may be a smokescreen.
From the wreckage of
the drones that the Iranians were able to recover in the vicinity, they were
small quadcopters that operate over short distances, which means that the
attackers were operating them remotely inside Iranian territory.
First, it is noted that
the Western media have tried to magnify these attacks as if they had degraded
Iranian capabilities by hitting sites of high strategic value, but in reality
this has not been the case. Iranian officials have claimed that the damage was
insignificant compared to Western media exaggerations, including that the
production lines of the “SHAHED-136” drone, used by Russia with destructive
precision, were not affected. This was clearly a psychological action aimed at
creating confusion and panic, especially in Russia.
But if this was not the
case, who would have carried out the attack and how? To begin with, we should
not rule out Israeli involvement, which is not the same as them being the sole
perpetrators. The relationship between Israel and the US is symbiotic and that
is why their involvement cannot be ruled out. Nevertheless, Tel Aviv would not
carry out such an attack without Washington's authorisation. It is well known
that member governments of the self-styled "free world" (a term that
comes from the Cold War), can break the law and commit all sorts of crimes on
other people's soil. The CIA and their British colleagues in MI6, not to
mention the Israeli Mossad (in the case of the Baruch Ben-Yosef assassination),
can blow up buildings and kill with impunity in other countries and not be
declared as acts of terrorism.
If we are in the midst
of a struggle for a truly multipolar world that respects international law (not
US unilateral rules), these acts should be prosecuted in international criminal
courts as the crimes they have always been.
Moving on, let's look
at who would benefit from cutting off the production of these attack drones.
The first of these is undoubtedly the regime in Kiev, although that does not
mean that a cell of the SBU has mounted this operation. But it is known that
this intelligence agency is currently under the complete control of the CIA and
British MI6 who have already been caught mounting terrorist attacks inside
Russia and Belarus. But how decisive and crucial is the role of these drones
for Washington to risk opening a war front in the Persian Gulf? If we look at
it from an economic angle, Russia causes more damage with this cheap vector
(20,000 US$ per unit) than the US can protect with a Patriot battery.
In addition, the
Ukrainians and their NATO backers have been constantly frustrated to see the
Russians use the “SHAHED” with enviable accuracy to destroy -in addition to
electrical installations- tons of material intended to enter by train from
Poland and Romania.
Those who carried out
these attacks, and according to the details of the drones they used, would not
have been launched from another country but from within Iranian territory
itself, controlled from a laptop or even a mobile phone. As we have seen in
other cases, the easy access to this type of drones for civilian use or even
the use of homemade drones makes it possible for an attack team equipped with
software and moving in the vicinity of the targets with a vehicle, allowing for
a surprise that is very difficult to anticipate.
In conclusion, it can
be intuited that those who actually carried out these attacks were cells of
CIA-directed assets with Israeli cooperation operating from within (Al Ahwaz or
MAK extremists) that could well have started from Iraqi Kurdistan where the
Americans and Mossad have bases of operations. If so, this is a clear expansion
of the theatre of operations of the war in Ukraine that could quickly spread to
other countries.
Ultimately, what is
becoming clear is who is who in this war and that beyond the supposed
underlying ideological contradictions, geopolitical interests and opportunism
matter more.
