These two major events in the Middle East shook the whole world

There are many major events in the Middle East, but these two major events have undoubtedly shook the whole world.

The first thing, as everyone knows, Iranian President Raisi unfortunately died in a plane crash.

In the Middle East, in the world, Iran is a big country anyway. The president of a big country, the helicopter crashed, rare, quite rare.

My first feeling, sad Iran, will be even more sad.

People cannot be resurrected from the dead, and Iran's power map is reorganized. The presidency, temporarily deputized by the vice president, will be reconvened next month.

But the president of a country said that it was gone, very suddenly, and the impact was many.

1. President Raisi, who is considered the most likely successor to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has a sudden change of successor, will it have little impact on Iran?

2. As the second-in-command, Raisi is specifically in charge of domestic and foreign affairs, and with a new president, there may not be major changes, but the adjustment of domestic and foreign affairs is obviously inevitable.

3, especially in the Middle East, the most critical role behind Hamas, the Houthis, and Allah is Iran. Raisi's tragic death will also have a subtle impact on the relationship between these groups and Iran, and thus the situation in the Middle East.

Alas, a historic tragedy in Iran.

In recent years, there has been some good news for Iran, but more than that, it has been one bad news after another.

Terrorist attacks, earthquake disasters, Israel's "bombing of the embassy", the United States imposed maximum sanctions, and now, the Iranian president and foreign minister have been killed in an American-made helicopter.

Looking at the pictures and videos, the Iranians praying for Raisi in the streets, crying loudly; In an emergency meeting of the Iranian cabinet, President Raisi sat on a black cloth diagonally.

What a sad word!

The second major event, which could have a more far-reaching impact, is the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The charges are war crimes and crimes against humanity.

It was not only the Israeli prime minister who was arrested, but also Israeli Defense Minister Gallant, as well as three Hamas leaders.

Now the procedure is still going through, the prosecutor has applied for an arrest warrant, most likely, and the next step is the judge of the International Criminal Court, signing the international arrest warrant.

The consequences are very serious.

1. Netanyahu and Gallant will hardly be able to go abroad, because they will be arrested if they go to more than 100 countries that are parties to the Rome Statute (including Britain, France, Germany, Italy, etc. in Europe).

2. The world finally no longer shy away from Israel's killing in Gaza, guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity. Even if the United States tried to prevent it, it did not work.

3. I think the most far-reaching thing is the world's attitude towards the Jews. The Nazi Holocaust made the world full of sympathy and regret for the Jews, and directly gave birth to the country of Israel. But Israel's endless reprisals and killings in Gaza are, really, exhausting the world's sympathy for Jews.

Israel and the United States have been furious about the ICC's move.

Netanyahu denounced this as a "political atrocity" against Israel; The United States has publicly threatened to impose sanctions on the International Criminal Court.

But this can't stop the mouth of the world.

After all, more than 35,000 people have been killed in Gaza, 70 per cent of them women and children. And if the killings in Gaza are not war crimes? The International Criminal Court really has no point in existing.

In this matter, we must also give a big thumbs up to the International Criminal Court.

No matter how controversial previous verdicts were, this time, it wasn't easy, very hard.

The judges and prosecutors of the International Criminal Court are certainly under tremendous pressure and aware of the seriousness of the consequences.

The consequence is not Israel's scolding, but the extreme sanctions of the United States, which will sanction this institution, but also sanction themselves and their families, they will have their visas revoked to the United States, and they will even be banned from using US dollars, and it is not excluded that no bank will dare to handle their business - because all banks are afraid of the long-arm jurisdiction of the United States.

But they still acted bravely, because they saw the truth, they saw the atrocities, and they couldn't stand up for it.

Their actions have even exposed the hypocrisy and double standards of the United States. It is worth mentioning that the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, who initiated the case, is also a British.

The two major events in the Middle East seem to be isolated, but there are also some subtle connections.

Don't forget, Iran and Israel are old enemies in the Middle East. Just a month ago, the two countries were on the verge of war.

Israel suddenly bombed the Iranian embassy in Syria. The embassy is an extension of a country's territory, and the "bombing of the embassy" incident is, undoubtedly, a great provocation and violation of Iran.

Enraged, Iran then launched an unprecedented large-scale air strike on targets inside Israel. Although 95% of Iranian drones and missiles were eventually intercepted by the United States and Israel, Iran is the only one in the Middle East today who dares to attack Israel itself in this way.

President Raisi died in a plane crash, and Iranian officials may conclude that it was due to a mechanical failure or weather causes. But for many ordinary Iranians, the first thing that comes to mind is the black hand of Israel and the United States.

Quite simply, in the past few years, the US and Israeli military intelligence services, especially the Israeli Mossad, have engaged in many assassinations and sabotage in Iran. How many important Iranian officials, including nuclear scientists, have suddenly died!

Iran, which is sad, will be even more sad; Angry Israel, will be even more angry.

Ironically, just a few decades ago, Iran and Israel were each other's best friends in the Middle East; Historically, the Persians were also the saviors of the Jews; But the reality is that these two ancient peoples are now enemies of each other.

When is the time for retribution?

But the tiger and wolf in the Middle East, the road to peace is long, and the eyes are full of blood.
