"Great timing after the Jews just had their arses handed to them on a plate by Iran."
KernowDamo: The Jews have launched an attack on Iran again, barely a day after a ceasefire came into force...but it's a little different.
Right, so when most people think of the clash between Israel and Iran, especially if you’re a regular viewer of this channel you might think of missile trails lighting up the night sky, Mossad performing nefarious deeds as they infiltrate Iran or cyberattacks to fry digital infrastructure—not a dusty legal document declaring a bank a terrorist. But in the latest twist of geopolitical theatre, Israel has swapped bombs for bureaucracy and declared war by spreadsheet.
In a move as surreal as it is pathetic, Israel has now designated the Central Bank of Iran—along with two other banks and an oil company—as terrorist organizations. Yeah, an entire national financial system is now being treated like a militant cell. Defence Minister Israel Katz has signed the order apparently at the behest of Mossad and something called the National Bureau for Economic Warfare—because of course Israel has an office for weaponizing the economy, in order to seemingly ramp up tensions with iran all over again. It’s lawfare over warfare. It’s symbolic chest-thumping disguised as counterterrorism. And it’s a worrying precedent that has implications not just for Iran, but for activists, dissidents, and even protest groups in the UK and beyond. Because if Israel can label a bank a terrorist, and UK politicians are eyeing protest groups like Palestine Action with the same logic, where does this end? Instead of missiles, Israel is now using legal tactics, such as designating a bank as a terrorist, to wage war on Iran. This shift in tactics is surprising, as the *news* usually focuses on military actions, but it highlights the complicated *politics* between the two countries. Stay informed on *world news* to understand how this affects *finance* and international relations.
