Opinion | The sinister beneficiaries of a US-Israel war with Iran
The US and Israel stand poised to drag the world into another catastrophic conflict, this time with Iran. Beneath the rhetoric of "security" and "defense," a war with Iran would serve the narrow, self-serving interests of powerful elites in both nations, while leaving a trail of devastation across the Middle East and beyond. The beneficiaries of this potential disaster reveal the cynical motives driving this dangerous escalation, exposing a pattern of exploitation, distraction, and imperialist ambition that prioritizes power and profit over human lives.

Opinion | Unveiling imperial ambitions: The 2009 Brookings Report and US-orchestrated aggression against Iran
Options for a New American Strategy toward Iran details nine strategic options aimed at undermining Iran's sovereignty, primarily targeting its nuclear program and regional influence to achieve regime change. Below is an expanded analysis of each option, emphasizing their implications for Iran, their roots in U.S. imperialist motives, and their relevance to the 2025 Israeli strikes, which align with the report's proxy-war framework.

Opinion | National reputation as goodwill: Hong Kong's strategic advantage
National reputation is a vital currency of trust impacting economies and diplomacy. Myanmar's instability and the U.S.'s declining global favorability illustrate reputational damage, while China's rise stems from initiatives like the Belt and Road. For HK, its robust reputation as a global hub underpinned by rule of law and connectivity presents a strategic opportunity. Investing in education, infrastructure, and openness can attract talent and investment, leveraging reputation to secure future prosperity amidst shifting global dynamics.

Opinion | From 'hitting the wall' to 'building bridges': Jimmy O. Yang's cross-cultural journey
As a fan of stand-up comedy, as soon as I opened my RedNote (Xiaohongshu) recently, the big data pushed me several articles about Chinese-American comedian Jimmy O. Yang's stand-up shows at the Hong Kong Coliseum. Tickets for Jimmy's show were hard to come by, with the first pre-sale selling out in less than a minute and tickets originally priced at $780 being scalped to as much as $2,500 a piece. Some fans nostalgically expressed that after so many years, they came back to the Coliseum to watch Jimmy's talk show. Other fans even chartered a bus from Shenzhen to attend the show.

Opinion | When Israel is under pressure, it plays the Iran Card
Facing domestic pressure and international isolation over Gaza, Israeli PM Netanyahu ordered strikes on Iran's nuclear program, reportedly killing key officials. Analysts suggest Netanyahu aims to provoke Iranian retaliation, rallying domestic support and forcing Western backing. Iran, already geopolitically cornered by sanctions, Hezbollah's weakening, and stalled US talks, faces a critical choice. Direct retaliation may be symbolic but ineffective, while inaction risks appearing weak. This escalation significantly heightens Middle East tensions and the risk of war.

Opinion | Why are Israel and Iran at war again? A deep dive into latest Middle East crisis
As global tensions run high—with the Russia-Ukraine war still ongoing, India-Pakistan border clashes, and domestic unrest in the U.S.—a new flashpoint has once again ignited in the Middle East. In the early hours of June 13, Israel launched a preemptive strike on Iran, marking the most serious escalation between the two powers since Iran's direct attack on Israeli territory in April 2024.
