Two events illustrate the new, secretive relations between Turkey and Iran, which are being conducted on Israel's back; one is a report in the American media that the American military attacked Iran in response to an Iranian attack on a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz; on the other hand, Turkey's Anadolu news agency does not know the identity of the tanker attackers and only says "a tanker was hit by an unidentified projectile." The second event is President Trump's attempt to transfer the war on Hezbollah from Israel to Syria, without knowing that President Erdogan has forbidden al-Shara from attacking Hezbollah (see our exclusive report on this in another publication today in the diary); The Turkish president forbade this as part of Turkey's alliance with Iran, and also because Turkey is arming Hezbollah (see our original reports in the newspaper's archive about Turkish assistance in arming Hezbollah). An event that sheds light on Iran-UK relations emerges from a phone call between the foreign ministers of the two countries yesterday (Saturday, June 27), just hours after Iran attacked a tanker in Hormuz and the US attacked Iran in response; the parties spoke to "discuss the implementation of the latest memorandum of understanding between Iran and the US, regional developments, and bilateral cooperation." This conversation does not prove that England is behind a plot with the US to transfer the Middle East to the Turkish-Iranian axis so that it can guard Western assets in the region on their behalf, but it does make it clear that England and Iran have an open line, and Anglo-US relations with the Turkish-Iranian axis require an open line that apparently no one is eavesdropping on. In our assessment, immediately after the end of the war, the Islamic Axis countries will work to determine the achievements of the war on the ground, and to exercise their new control over the Middle East and the heart of the global energy hub in the Straits of Hormuz, by imposing tax restrictions on those using the Straits. Control over the Straits and all the way to the ocean will bring the Axis into control of the global energy crises, for which, in our assessment, they will blame Israel in order to bring it to an end; to this end, the Axis countries need Hezbollah to spill Israeli blood and provoke decisive Israeli responses; in our assessment, the Axis will also work for expanded Turkish control of the Mediterranean Sea, in order to create an axis of control for the new center of power from the east in the Straits of Hormuz to the west on the shores of the Mediterranean, alongside its control north and south of the Middle East, towards Russia and China. What brought Israel to the current low point in which its fate and the fate of the Middle East are determined by powers, headed by America, our great friend, above its head? The failures of the fanatic government from January 2023 to October 7, and then the extension of the war in Gaza beyond January 2024, a destructive extension that established the American British conspiracy, and the Turkish Iranian axis.
