Attacks on Iran's oil facilities could trigger global economic shock

On October 1, Iran launched nearly 200 ballistic missiles targeting Israel; according to Israeli statements, almost all missiles, except for one or two, were destroyed in the air. Meanwhile, Iran claims that 90 per cent of their missiles successfully hit their targets. There is some truth to Iran's statement; otherwise, Israel would not have been adding the US's most advanced missile defense system, Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD), to its defenses. Israel's air defense system, Iron Dome, was considered impenetrable against enemy-fired missiles, rockets, or warplanes. In addition to Iron Dome, Israel has long been using the US Patriot missile system, but this was deemed insufficient, leading to the addition of THAAD.

Biden Netanyahu Relations and Its impact in Gaza war

It is so complicated to describe the relations between US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu. On 20 May, US President criticized the decision of ICC prosecutor to seek arrest warrants for top Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu, on war-crime charges while he was speaking at a Jews heritage event in the Rose Garden at the White House. “Let me be clear, we reject the ICC’s application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders,” Biden said. “There is no equivalence between Israel and Hamas,” Biden added. He also declared that the Isreal’s military action in Gaza is not genocide. Does it mean, however, that President Biden supporting Netanyahu and his coalition government? Not at all. President Biden is just following the US principle to safe and support the nation Israel at any cost she needed. On the other part of the coin, Biden threatened to withhold arms supplies if Israel entered Rafah in southern Gaza, what Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu clearly ignored.

Joe Biden's electoral challenges and Donald Lu's visit to Dhaka

Joe Biden is currently facing a significant challenge: preventing a debacle in the upcoming election. In the past four decades, no U.S. president has been as unpopular during their tenure as Biden. His predecessor, Donald Trump, lost popularity while in office, but Biden has apparently become even more unpopular than Trump. Biden has lost considerable popularity not only globally but also among U.S. citizens, with protests erupting in various parts of the country as evidence.
