US Pauses War on Iran (Again) - Countdown to Next Round Begins
US pauses its attacks on Iran once again to begin rearming, reorganizing and eventually restarting hostilities again at a time of its own choosing;
The pause also cools off energy markets the US is deliberately disrupting and dismantling to its benefit - but in a way that doesn't trigger a united front against US disruptions;
The war on Iran is part of a wider war on multipolarism the US continues to wage - if the war on multipolarism continues, so will the war on Iran;
US foreign policy is driven by unelected corporate-financier interests - not politicians - thus any analysis or solution based on the notion "politicians" instead of the largest corporations in the US are making decisions is destined to fail;
