It seems that such rulers are trying to satisfy the great powers and historical and religious beliefs due to the lack of internal legitimacy ... Strike a balance between their intentions and the field of action in the form of this obvious conflict. To recognize International and moral religious responsibilities, popular movements and... It can minimize such conflicting policies to some extent. http://www.remess.ir/article_226042.html The United States, as a key player and founding entity of the Internet infrastructure, has consistently sought to expand its dominance over various aspects of the Internet and lead the global economy and security. However, with the emergence of new cyber actors like Iran and Russia, and the development of cyber retaliatory attacks against the U.S. (such as the 2012 attack on California’s water and electricity infrastructure, known as the "Cyber Pearl Harbor"), alongside the expansion of Chinese technology in the economic sphere, American officials have come to face the reality that the U.S. and its allies are not the sole powers in the cyber domain. The aim of this research, employing a trend analysis method based on the theory of cyber regimes with a focus on deterrence and the Rimland theory with an emphasis on economic conflict, is to examine the evolution of U.S. cyber policymaking. In this context, the research answers the question: What transformative path has U.S. cyber strategy followed in the security and economic realms between 1996 and 2020? Furthermore, what new political-economic blocs have emerged in the cyber age? The results indicate that U.S. cyber policymaking has been shaped by two main approaches—security and economics. The Trump administration marks the beginning of a shift towards economic conflict, with the U.S. using economic warfare tactics, such as tariffs, forming regional and global alliances, and seeking to reduce the influence of China and the Huawei company in the European Union and the ASEAN region. http://www.remess.ir/article_226043.html The political myth of Judaism from ancient times onwards has been established around subjects like "diaspora", "exile to Babylon" and "Resh Galuta" etc. Judaic political successes owe to these very notions. The question is whether this political structure has affected Iranian intellectual's thoughts. Yes. In Qajar period, Mirza Malkom Khan's Thoughts like "religious reforms", "the law idea" and "materialistic approach towards religion" resemble the structure of Talmudian Judaism. Having an important role in the formation of ancientism of Pahlavi regime and promotion of masonary in Iran, Foroughi's thoughts have many affinities with Judaic notions like "incarnation of Judaic souls" and "racism". Javad Tabatabayi digged a deep cleavage between modern and old political thoughts and criticized unfairly the Iranian political thoughts. This emulates Judaism's narcissism, Judaic acute nostalgia about "David's kingdom" and "their pretence to be victim" in institutions such as Sanhedrin. The result is that in all three periods of contemporary history of Iran, a great part of intellectual spheres has a lot of similarities with Talmudian Judaism and inflicted a destructive and irretrievable effect on the Iranian culture and politics. http://www.remess.ir/article_226044.html Over the past decade, Israel has emerged as one of the global hubs of innovation in advanced technologies, particularly in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Israel’s startup ecosystem—fueled by substantial investments, strong government support, and close ties with military and security institutions—has enabled the country to play a strategic role in the development and application of AI. This phenomenon has implications that go beyond the technological realm, influencing geopolitical dynamics as well.players (the government, private sector, military, and academia), and explain the geopolitical consequences stemming from the advancement of these technologies both regionally and globally.What factors have contributed to Israel becoming one of the global centers for AI startups?The central hypothesis of this research is that the development of Israel’s AI startup ecosystem is not only the result of governmental support and domestic technological capabilities, but also serves as a new geopolitical tool that enables Israel to maintain and expand its security and intelligence superiority in the region.Analyses indicate that Israel, by leveraging a coordinated network of innovative companies, military-intelligence agencies, and international investors, has managed to secure a prominent position in both civilian and military applications of AI. These advancements have increased Israel’s political bargaining power on the international stage and deepened the technological divide in the region.Thus, Israel’s AI ecosystem is not only a successful economic model but also a strategic instrument in the evolving landscape of geopolitical relations. http://www.remess.ir/article_226045.html The foreign policy of the United States has historically evolved within the framework of competing schools of thought, notably Wilsonianism, Hamiltonianism, and Jacksonianism. With the election of Donald Trump and his two presidential terms (2017-2021 and 2025–present), U.S. foreign policy underwent significant transformations characterized by nationalist, isolationist, and populist tendencies. This study aims to identify the ideological orientation of Trump's foreign policy by analyzing it through the lens of traditional American foreign policy schools. This is a qualitative, descriptive-analytical study that employs critical discourse analysis and qualitative content analysis. The data corpus includes presidential speeches, official policy documents, and foreign policy actions taken during both terms of Trump’s presidency. These data are analyzed across five key policy domains and compared with the core features of the Wilsonian, Hamiltonian, and Jacksonian schools. Findings indicate that Trump’s foreign policy aligns most closely with the Jacksonian tradition, particularly in a revised form referred to as “populist Jacksonianism.” Characterized by anti-elitism, aggressive nationalism, hostility toward international institutions, discursive enemy construction, and a highly personalized and media-driven style, Trump’s foreign policy diverges significantly from both Wilsonian liberal internationalism and Hamiltonian institutional economic engagement. This ideological orientation not only shaped the core of Trump’s first term but has continued and even intensified during his second term in office, potentially reshaping the future trajectory of American foreign policy. http://www.remess.ir/article_226047.html Abstract:After World War II, Britain, despite its direct influence in the Middle East, used the establishment of Israel as a key tool to counter regional threats. This article examines British policies from 1948 to 1950, analyzing how Israel’s immigration programs—including the criteria used in the Israeli ambassador’s letters on the selection of immigrants—and its reliance on the country as a defensive base were part of Britain’s strategic plan to advance its interests and undermine the convergence of the Arab and Muslim worlds. This research examines the historical context of the Holocaust and its profound impact on Israeli immigration policies, as well as the relationship between Israel and Britain and its role in global developments.The aim of this article is to shed light on the hidden dimensions of England's strategic decisions and their effects on the social and economic structure of Israel and the region.Keywords: Immigration policies, regional conflicts, Balfour Declaration, Muslim powers, Western interests, Ambassador's letter, Holocaust http://www.remess.ir/article_219540.html The Islamic Republic of Iran system has maintained its foreign policy approaches for more than four decades. The main question of this article is to examine the challenges in Iran's foreign policy towards the international and regional system in the next decade. Reading the foreign policy of the Islamic Republic from the point of view of tensions and contradictions in policy-making with a look at the five tensions of revolutionary governments from Fred Halliday's point of view, emphasizes the need to change from this repeated approach. Halliday enumerates several stages for the foreign policy of revolutionary governments and considers the final successful transition from them, through a fundamental revision of the policies. In this research, we have investigated the upcoming crises in Iran's foreign policy in the future by using the library method and referring to the opinions of experts. The initial drawing of the structure of the international system and the regional system of West Asia by expressing the security and non-security priorities of friendly, rival or hostile actors as an upcoming reality, shapes the preliminary discussion. Then, by presenting the principles and policies of the Islamic Republic, we will discuss the future challenges. In the end, we will address the point that in order to be successful in foreign policy based on national interests, one should give in to important changes in a wise way. http://www.remess.ir/article_231428.html 'Mechanistic notion of the world', 'capitalism', 'humanism', 'sexual freedom', 'materialism' and 'racism' are the articulation of the dominance system of the west. Using the method of phenomenology presented by Heidegger, this article investigates the relation of these notions in their grounds with some similar notions arising from Judaism. In kabbalah, in the theory of creation in Talmud and in Gersonides' thoughts, there are mechanistic ideas of the world. For the first time, Fetishism and material approach toward god appeared in Judaism. Deism and materialism are two schools of thought imitating the Talmud in this regard. Judaism has a lot of effects on the advent of capitalism and capitalism needed subjective and objective backgrounds emerging from Judaism. Judaism, especially in its Zionistic form, is an orthodox racism and has paved the way for social Darwinism. This article is going to show the affinities between Judaism and the discourse of the dominance of the west. http://www.remess.ir/article_231429.html The Islamic Revolution demonstrated its most significant global impact through Islamization and making it central to struggles. One of the major cultural and social challenges between Iran and the U.S. is their differing religious beliefs. Visualizing these challenges over the next decade helps policymakers adjust their plans and resources to address future opportunities and threats.This study, using qualitative and quantitative content analysis and examining 27 sources, identified 12 cultural and 12 social challenges. Among these are the export of Islamic revolutionary ideology, Iran’s expanding regional influence, efforts toward Islamic awakening, and the promotion of an Islamic-Iranian lifestyle—key reasons behind U.S. hostility toward Iran. Additionally, America’s cultural offensive against Iran will intensify in the coming decade. Conversely, Iran challenges U.S. culture and social issues, prompting the U.S. to target Iran’s culture of resistance and social dynamics in response.The study concludes that the mental and psychological frameworks of the two countries' leaders are rooted in cultural and social confrontation, which will perpetuate tensions in bilateral relations. http://www.remess.ir/article_238279.html The Zionist regime has faced numerous internal and external challenges since its establishment in 1948. These challenges have not only affected the regime's internal and external policies, but also its existence. The present study examines ethnic, religious, political, economic, and social differences and their impact on the existence of this regime using a descriptive-analytical method and using documentary-library sources. According to the findings of the study, the fake and unnatural foundations of the Zionist regime have made it susceptible to numerous political, social, and security crises since its establishment, and on a macro level, a fragile entity. The regime has faced structural problems in the processes of nation-building and state-building from the beginning, and the reason for this is the lack of natural prerequisites for the formation of a state, such as a specific geography, a homogeneous population, and legitimate governance. Although it has tried to bring these elements together by force and pressure, which has led to various crises and so far Israel has continued to exist with foreign support, now ethnic differences between Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews, religious tensions between Orthodox and secular Jews, political crises resulting from the multi-party system, economic inequalities and social gaps and challenges such as discrimination against Israeli Arabs, gender inequality and the housing crisis, cultural, identity and immigration challenges have led to increased dissatisfaction and protests that have put the existence of the Zionist regime in danger of destruction. http://www.remess.ir/article_238280.html Iranian Jews, as a minority group, have a long and complex history; in particular, immigration to Israel in the contemporary era has had a special impact on their fate. After the victory of the Islamic Revolution and the change in the nature of relations between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Israel from long-standing friendship to deep enmity, it has always been important for both sides to know and be aware of each other's political and social developments. This research uses the "pull and push theory" to examine the context and reasons for the immigration of Iranian Jews to Israel and why a significant portion of them prefer to immigrate to America and Europe within a framework different from the classical Zionist narratives. The pull and push theory examines the political, economic, social, and cultural factors that have caused this minority's desire or reluctance to immigrate to Israel. The research method is a case study and focuses on the analysis of historical and documentary data. The findings of this research show that the choice of immigration destination for Iranian Jews is influenced by cultural, political, and economic factors rather than being purely ideological. In addition to the efforts of Zionist institutions to attract Iranian Jews, the secular and apolitical attitude of Iranian Jews, the political-economic conditions, and better opportunities in America and Europe have played an important role in choosing a destination for immigration.
