Canada's forest is the size of Europe, with 70% of it with no roads, no people. Dig, dig, dig isn't helping.

Iran neither wants nor needs nuclear weapons. It can beat the United States without them, by letting the United States beat itself.

You know what scarier than the biggest military force on earth? The biggest military force leads by someone who knows no bonds of shame, moral nor international laws.

The rhetoric is familiar, but these kinds of escalations always ripple far beyond the US and Iran. Having seen how instability in the Gulf disrupts trade and security across Asia and Europe, I wonder if military deterrence actually works here or if it just pushes Tehran further into a corner. Al Jazeera always provides a necessary global perspective on these tensions.
