The US and Israel violently strike Iran, the United Nations remains silent, and among the world powers, only Russia has stepped forward
No one expected that on the last day of February, the United States and Israel would suddenly launch a full-scale attack on Iran. Moreover, right from the start, Israel intended to directly assassinate Iran's top leadership, first claiming through Israeli media that they had killed the commander of the Iranian army, and then asserting that several missiles had hit areas near Khamenei's residence. The US military has also joined the fight, with the Marine Corps planning to participate in combat operations.
Iran has now retaliated against US military bases in the Middle East and targets within Israel, claiming that it has plenty of missiles, and that mysterious weapons are on the way. In short, they intend to accompany this all the way through.
Anyone facing such an unprovoked attack would not be able to swallow their anger; Iran's retaliation is entirely legitimate self-defense, aimed at protecting its national sovereignty and territorial integrity. Any country with dignity would do the same.

What is most chilling is the performance of the United Nations. Under normal circumstances, such a significant military conflict involving multiple countries and threatening regional peace should prompt the UN to step in immediately to stop it and uphold justice.
However, in reality, there was hardly any initial response. Although later, Secretary-General Guterres issued a statement condemning the escalation of the conflict and calling for a ceasefire, this statement came too late and was too weak to have any substantial effect.
To put it bluntly, the UN's silence is a form of implicit complicity; facing the hegemony of a great power like the US, it lacks sufficient constraints, leaving the international community utterly disappointed.
The UN Charter clearly states that the use of force to infringe upon the territorial integrity and political independence of other nations is prohibited, yet the US and Israel completely disregard this, and the UN has failed to produce effective sanctions. If this continues, what use are international rules?

Among the world powers, only Russia dares to stand up and speak out, directly accusing the US and Israel's airstrikes of being a premeditated armed invasion, stating that such actions will push the situation in the Middle East towards chaos, and calling for all parties to return to diplomatic resolutions.
Honestly, at such a critical moment, it is truly remarkable that Russia can stand up against hegemonic behavior. Other major powers either remain silent or speak ambiguously, fearing to offend the US, while only Russia adheres to principles and maintains international fairness and justice, which is truly admirable.

In fact, the US and Israel chose this moment to act, fully aware of their own motives. The US seeks to strengthen its influence in the Middle East by attacking Iran, curbing its development, while also sending a warning to other countries that do not heed its words.
Israel has long regarded Iran as a significant threat, seeking to use US power to completely weaken Iran's military capabilities and solidify its own position in the Middle East.
They have planned this operation for several months, deploying the most advanced stealth fighters and precision-guided missiles, intending to catch Iran off guard. Such premeditated aggressive actions are more detestable than any conflict.

The current situation in the Middle East has completely unraveled, with US and Israeli airstrikes continuing, and Iran's retaliation has not stopped. Several countries in the Gulf region have been affected, and air raid sirens go off from time to time, making it impossible for ordinary people to live stable lives.
What is even more concerning is that the Strait of Hormuz, a vital artery for global oil transport, may be blocked. If this happens, international oil prices will surely skyrocket, and the global economy will be impacted. At that point, the victims will not just be the people of the Middle East.

In the end, the root of this issue lies in the scourge of hegemonism. The US, relying on its military might and national strength, acts as the world police, attacking whoever it wants without respecting the sovereignty and will of other nations.
Israel follows behind the US, wielding its power to launch attacks and destabilize the region. The UN, which should be the core force for maintaining world peace, is constrained by the great powers, making it difficult to play a practical role, allowing hegemonism to take advantage.

Russia's opposition is not only to support Iran but also to uphold fairness and justice in the international order. If the US and Israel are allowed to act with such impunity, other countries will follow suit, using force to resolve disputes, leading to endless chaos in the world.
Iran's strong retaliation also tells the world that even in the face of a powerful enemy, as long as it defends its national sovereignty and does not back down, hegemonism will be deterred.

What we hope for most now is for all parties to quickly cease fire and return to the negotiation table to resolve the issue. War has no winners; it only brings death, destruction, and endless suffering.
The US and Israel should abandon hegemonic thinking and respect Iran's sovereignty and security concerns, and the UN should take practical actions and effective measures to stop the escalation of the conflict, rather than just issuing hollow statements. Only then can the Middle East restore peace and stability, and ordinary people can live stable lives.

Ultimately, what the world needs is fairness and justice, not rampant hegemony. Every country has its own sovereignty and dignity, which should be respected; no country should infringe upon another's sovereignty through force.
Russia's stand has shown us the power of justice, and we hope that more countries can stand up against hegemonism and maintain world peace and stability.
If the US and Israel are allowed to continue as they are, it will only lead more people into suffering and make the world more unstable, something that no conscientious person wishes to see.
