    Israel's Strikes on Iran Signal a New Global Conflict Against BRICS

    With Every Intention of getting the Oil and Gas

    BRICS is an intergovernmental organization comprising ten countries – Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates. BRICS is an intergovernmental organization comprising ten countries – Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates.


    June 13th, 2025, changed everything. While mainstream media focused on nuclear facilities and security threats, they missed the real story unfolding behind the headlines. Is Israel the new sheriff? The West's proxy move against BRICS.

    Most people believe the recent Israeli strikes on Iran were about preventing nuclear weapons development. But what if I told you these attacks were actually a calculated assault on the world's fastest-growing economic alliance, one that threatens to end Western financial dominance forever?

    Today, we'll prove this wasn't about nuclear security at all. We'll show you how Iran became the energy backbone of BRICS, why that terrifies Western powers, and how Israel just fired the opening shot in a new kind of global war. By the end of this video, you'll understand why these strikes represent the most significant geopolitical shift since the Cold War ended.

    But before diving into the analysis, let me share something personal with you.

    A Personal Note from Think BRICS

    Dear friends of Think BRICS, we should have been in Tehran these days. We were supposed to report on the event "deBlock - The Future of BRICS Through Blockchain." We are media partners. We had our bags packed and ready. But on Friday morning, we got terrible news: Israel bombed Iranian territory, and our trip, along with the event itself, was canceled.

    We wish we were talking about progress and cooperation instead of conflict. But we cannot ignore what is happening in the world today. Our sadness about not visiting a historic place like Iran is nothing compared to what the Iranian people are going through right now.

    Iran's Crucial Role in BRICS

    Back to it

    Here's what makes Iran invaluable to BRICS. Iran's energy resources are crucial for the alliance amid Western sanctions. Iran holds the world's fourth-largest oil reserves.  That's 163 billion barrels, or 9.5% of global deposits. But it gets better. Iran also controls 12% of the world's natural gas reserves, ranking among the top three holders globally.

    Despite crushing Western sanctions, Iran increased oil production by 60% over the past two years. Think about that for a moment. While the West tried to strangle Iran's economy, Tehran found new markets and doubled down on energy exports. Who's buying? China, Venezuela, and until the coup d'état Syria.  All BRICS partners or allies. Notably, Venezuela imports Iranian oil despite its own substantial reserves due to quality differences, international sanctions, and refining capacity challenges.


    BRICS Membership Shifts Global Oil Dynamics

    When Iran joined BRICS officially on January 1st, 2024, everything changed.

    A year and a half ago.

    The expanded BRICS group now includes three of the world's largest oil exporters. Together, they control 42% of global oil supply. This isn't just about energy numbers.

    It's about breaking the petrodollar system that has anchored Western financial dominance for fifty years.

    Iran explicitly joined BRICS to "counterbalance Western powers" and "bolster economic transactions in non-dollar currencies." Beijing and Moscow welcomed Iran with open arms because they share this vision.

    When countries representing more than half of the global population start trading outside the dollar system, Washington's sanctions become worthless paper.

    The last gasps of an Imperial Empire amid bullshit end-time rhetoric.

    The June 13th Attack: What Really Happened?

    Now, let's examine what really happened on June 13th. Israel struck Iran's Natanz Fuel Enrichment Plant, destroying the above-ground facility producing 60% enriched uranium. The electrical infrastructure was completely demolished—substations, power supplies, backup generators. Fordow and Isfahan facilities were also hit.

    But here's the smoking gun most media ignored. Journalist Pepe Escobar revealed:

    The "devastating attack on Iran was coordinated in detail with President Donald Trump." Trump's own statements provided the roadmap. He demanded a "deal" while threatening "something much worse than anything they know." He gloated about "hardliners" being "DEAD now" and warned of "more brutal" planned attacks.

    This fits perfectly with Israel's "decapitation strategy".  Systematically eliminating Iran's military and diplomatic leadership.

    Remember former President Raisi and Foreign Minister Abdollahian's mysterious deaths? Remember Trump's assassination of General Soleimani? This is pattern recognition, not coincidence.

    The green light came directly from Washington.

    Why Now? The BRICS Factor

    But why now? Because Iran was becoming too comfortable, too integrated into BRICS. According to sources, "indirect nuclear negotiations in Oman were taken seriously in Tehran, lulling the Iranian leadership to sleep." They fell into the trap.

    The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspections Iran allowed weren't about transparency.  They were intelligence-gathering missions. As one analyst noted, "Iranians were naïve enough to let the IAEA visit their strategic sites, where spies collected all the info needed to facilitate Israeli strikes." Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister confirmed this betrayal, announcing Iran "will not notify the IAEA further about nuclear program activities after Israel's attacks."
    The trust is broken. The cooperation is over.

    Stupid Is as Stupid Does.  - Trump Is as Trump Does.  -  Trump is the Great Divider.

    The Real Target: BRICS Energy Integration

    This brings us to the heart of the matter. These strikes weren't about Iran's nuclear program, they were "above all a pre-emptive attack on the BRICS energy core."

    Iran serves as the crucial link between Russia and China in their Eurasian integration project.

    Their gas tank.

    The International North-South Transportation Corridor connects Russia, Iran, and India. These aren't just trade routes—they're the infrastructure of a new world order. By attacking Iran, the West aims to deliver a "killer blow to increased Eurasia integration."

    The Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which includes Iran as a full member, condemned the strikes as a "gross violation of international law." They declared, "any unlawful actions directed against SCO member states are unacceptable."

    But condemnation isn't deterrence. The BRICS nations face a stark choice:

    Either they develop real military alliance structures to protect members, or they watch the West pick them off one by one. As one analyst put it, "Liquid organizations like BRICS don't serve any purpose without military backing." The only hope is "a network of military alliances like those that bind Western countries."

    The Energy War: Why It Matters

    Now, let's dive deeper into why these energy dynamics matter so much. BRICS countries already account for 36.4% of the world's primary energy supply. By 2040, that figure jumps to 45% of global energy consumption and production. This growing dominance explains Western desperation.

    Ya think!

    Iran's integration into BRICS creates an alternative energy architecture completely outside Western control. Iran and Russia plan to establish a "gas hub on the Makran coast for exporting energy to South and Southeast Asian countries." They're building swap arrangements through Turkmenistan territory. These projects bypass Western financial systems entirely.  No dollars, no Western banks, no Western control.

    The West's Last Stand?

    The current global energy governance system was designed in 1974 by major oil consumers.  The US, Japan, and Europe. It excludes BRICS members despite their status as top energy consumers. BRICS wants to transition from "rule takers" to "rule makers" in global energy governance. The West cannot allow this transformation. Hence the proxy war through Israel.

    Iran holds one final card that terrifies Western planners: the Strait of Hormuz. Iran can "shut down the Strait of Hormuz and collapse the global economy" if pushed too far. Twenty percent of global oil passes through this narrow waterway. One Iranian decision could trigger worldwide economic chaos.

    This is why the stakes are so incredibly high, and why the strategy to destroy the Iranian economy may backfire. Instead of capitulation, Iran seems to choose escalation. The question becomes:

    Will Russia and China allow their BRICS partner to be destroyed? Or is it that Iran doesn't need any help and can manage this war by itself, despite what Western media claims?

    If they intervene, we're looking at World War Three. If they don't, BRICS could easily die as a credible alternative to Western dominance.

    This is very dangerous.

    Conclusion: A New Global Struggle

    The Israeli strikes on Iran represent far more than a regional conflict. They're the opening move in a global struggle between the declining unipolar order and the emerging multipolar world. Iran's energy wealth makes it the crown jewel of BRICS.

    The coordinated Western-Israeli response shows how desperate they are to maintain control.

    But this strategy carries enormous risks. By attacking a BRICS member, the West may have just accelerated the very multipolarity they sought to prevent. What happens next will determine whether we live in a world dominated by one superpower or balanced among many. The stakes couldn't be higher.
