ISREAL’S FATAL WAR OF FEAR

ISRAEL IS WRONG... because of Benjamin Netanyahu’s war rhetoric.

Believe me, since the past 5 years I have done over 16 academic papers on International Relations, geo-political risk, International Humanitarian Law, Genocide, War and MAD - Mutually Assured Destruction, for different individual scholars. 

That the U.S. has distanced itself from the current attack on Iran, prioritising the protection of its personnel isn't enough frankly. Israel has gone too rogue with MOSSAD's bossy latitude. There is no end to the Israeli obnoxious gasconade. 

We all should agree that anticipatory self-defense which refers to striking before an attack happens is more than controversial as well as illegal. 

The Caroline Test, a customary international law principle, states that preemptive strikes are justified only if the threat is instant, overwhelming, and leaves no choice of means or moment for deliberation.

Which threat does Iran present to Israel now? 

When Israel argue that Iran’s nuclear program posed an imminent existential threat, it does not justify its unilateral action.

Iran had not yet launched an attack, making Israel’s strike a preventive war rather than self-defense, which is generally not recognized under international law. This is proxy war to prevent a Nuclear War, while benefiting America, NATO and West. It is as good as saying that the U.S. sanctioned the attack by not lifting a finger on Israel. 

While Iran has tried today to respond  with multiple drone attacks and onslaught, this would potentially lead to a regional conflict. It appears that Iran has not developed solid Air Defence Systems to subvert Israel's Fire Power. 

Already, oil prices have surged, reflecting uncertainty in global markets. 

Today's Oil Prices (June 13, 2025)

Brent Crude: $73.96 per barrel (up 6.63%)

West Texas Intermediate (WTI): $73.03 per barrel (up 7.33%)

Murban Crude: $75.70 per barrel

Yesterday's Brent Crude was $66.72 per barrel. 

West Texas Intermediate (WTI): $64.85 per barrel

Murban Crude: $66.75 per barrel. 

Analysts predict that if tensions escalate further, oil prices could exceed $80 per barrel in the coming day. 

Would that ever reflect on Nigeria's Petroleum Price System? 

Israel’s action sets a dangerous precedent for unilateral military strikes based on perceived threats. Whether this qualifies as legitimate self-defense or an act of aggression will likely be debated in international courts and diplomatic circles. The world now watches to see how Iran, Israel, and global powers respond.
