Qorshaha sirdoonka CIA ee lagu hubaynayo Kurdiyiinta Iiraan waa mindi laba af leh oo beddeli karta khariidadda Bariga Dhexe. The CIA’s mission to mobilize Kurdish forces like the KDPI is designed to distract the IRGC from the frontline, but it risks a total diplomatic collapse with Turkey. Halka Washington ay u aragto fursad lagu daciifiyo Tehraan, Ankara waxay u aragtaa riyo xun oo khatar ku ah amnigooda. This "DIY regime change" approach by the Trump administration echoes t

In this analysis, Dr. Lawrence A. Franklin explores how potential naval and air facilities on Somaliland’s coast could allow Israel and the United States to project power directly across the Gulf of Aden. While the African Union and Mogadishu express concerns over secessionist precedents, pr
