After months of Ukrainian strikes on fuel refineries, Russia is currently experiencing an ongoing fuel shortage. Repeated attacks have caused a deficit in the country’s supply of usable gasoline, resulting in long queues at local gas stations as authorities impose strict limits on how much fuel motorists can purchase.

Every interceptor has a price. Every inventory has a bottom: Over two years, Iran spent an estimated $4–6 B firing missiles and drones, while forcing its enemies to spend more than $7 B, or more, defending themselves. It is being acknowledged that Iran has achieved a strategic victory. This is a victory achieved on a spreadsheet, rather than in the air. This article tells you the story of this spreadsheet war.

The war lasted for two years over four phases.

“We face an enemy that is ever growing.”
That’s how Jeff Daniels (“The Newsroom”) as Ronald Reagan opens the trailer for “The Brink of War.” The film is based on true events, when President Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev (played by “Fringe” and “Mad Men” actor Jared Harris) explore a deal that could dismantle their nuclear arsenals or ignite a war.
