Clearly, the platform tries very hard to prevent the escalation of tensions, however, there is a real possibility that there will be a huge war. The platform should be prepared for this possibility.
The aim of the platform is to use economic and entrepreneurial leverages to stop wars and authoritarianism. If Lebanon’s tensions turn into a war, the platform should provide an example of how this aim can be achieved in real situations.
In the past, I wrote about organizing anti-war communities in different parts of the world. One of the best ways to achieve that can be to form communities around cryptocurrencies built for this purpose. I explained different ideas previously, but they can be combined into one idea. The region affected by the war will be divided into different zones. A wallet will be assigned to each zone (wallets are controlled by the UN). Coins will be distributed among those wallets, and people around the world will work to increase the value of those coins as briefly explained yesterday. So social anti-war protests will turn into economic activities around the world.
UPDATE 1:
I sent an email to a researcher at the UN and discussed the idea.
A bazaar (called Madani) in a southern city in Iran was burnt today. The plan of the other side is to make me angry (in any way they can) and disrupt the project. That’s their main technique. In negotiations for example they try to disrupt things. Netanyahu’s camp kept adding new conditions and did other things to disrupt the negotiations. They’ve done it in the past and they do it now. You can disrupt a negotiation using specific techniques but you can’t stop a platform.
UPDATE 2:
Iran’s regime’s policies about Israel are the same as those of the Paidari people. So it can’t tell who is who because everyone says the same thing and supports the same policy. The difference is that Paidari wants to take down the regime and the entire region with it. So in a critical time such as this one, it’s wise for Iran’s regime to keep a distance from those who want to undermine it.
Khamenei said the Lebanon and Gaza war will be similar to the Iran-Iraq war. which means he probably expects a very long war that will weaken Israel and will push Israelis to migrate to other countries. The issue is that Iran’s social situation is already so unstable (worker’s uprising can be ignited at any time). Years of involvement in an erosive war will extremely destabilize an already destabilised society.
UPDATE 3:
The Iran-Iraq war saved the regime from collapse. However, this won’t be another stabilizing war for Iran.
On the other hand, Netanyahu’s camp persists in its old plan as if nothing has changed, although everything has changed.
The platform meanwhile will keep going forward. It will take advantage of the huge mistakes of the sides.
