Where they stand
A short read of where Stanislav Krapivnik lands on each front we follow, drawn from their recent appearances and refreshed whenever they turn up in a debrief.
Iran
Mountain bunkers 500 m down cannot be destroyed even by nukes; a renewed US strike would only hit grids and reactors and trigger Iranian retaliation that collapses Gulf states
as of 2026-10-18
Ukraine & Russia
US is not abandoning Project Ukraine, only possibly Zelensky; Russian Geran-5 cruise missiles at 40-to-1 cost ratio beat Patriot interceptors; Trump peace moves may be a ruse
as of 2026-10-18
Israel
Israel seeks a greater Israel and a broken-up Iran; hosting US tankers makes it a war participant that could be devastated
as of 2026-11-01
East Asia
Zelensky's handover of North Korean POWs to Seoul hands Pyongyang a casus belli, and South Korea would lose a war
as of 2026-10-26
American power
Israel lobby owns Congress ('Knesset West'); US elites are sacrificing Europe (Nord Stream, IRA, BlackRock) while empire weakens
as of 2026-10-18
The global economy
No fuel shortages in Russia despite Western claims; Ukraine's cut of the Druzhba pipeline hurt its own diesel supply
as of 2026-11-04
