New: Why Should We Care if the Illicit Iran-China Oil Trade Goes Through Malaysia? Roughly $4 billion a month. That is what Iran’s sanctioned oil trade with China was worth when it ran normally, according to Charlie Brown @supbrow, and the revenue goes directly to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. Brown, a former U.S. Navy officer who heads the Iran Tanker Tracking Program at United Against a Nuclear Iran, joins @GordianKnotRay and Jim Carouso from Singapore to explain how Iranian crude reaches China’s teapot refineries by way of an anchorage 80 nautical miles from Singapore, often relabeled “Malaysian blended crude.” He calls Malaysia’s Eastern Outer Port Limits “parking on the side of a superhighway.” The location is within Malaysia’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), shallow enough to anchor and close enough to Singapore for resupply. Ships go there, he says, “precisely because they won’t be disrupted.” None anchor in Indonesian waters, where Jakarta’s enforcement is stronger across its full maritime zone, having once seized the Iranian-flagged Arman 114. Malaysian fines run just five figures against cargoes worth $100 million, which Charlie calls a slap on the wrist. This past January, Malaysian authorities detained two false-flagged tankers conducting a transfer off Penang, then released them with a minimal fine, which changed nothing at the Johor anchorage. Malaysia updated its EEZ Act in June 2026 to cover illegal anchoring and unpermitted cargo transfers across its maritime zone, but Brown says nothing has really changed. Also in this episode: what the U.S. blockade has and has not stopped, why 26 Iranian-flagged tankers sailed within days of the MoU signing, and Brown’s argument that roughly a third of these ships are now stateless and can be seized by any nation on the high seas.

This month @UANI chartered a supply vessel and went undercover to track #Iran’s ghost fleet, 100 nautical miles from Malaysia's coast. In today’s @WSJ, @JebBush and I detail what we saw with this 200+ vessel operation—and call for Malaysia to be held accountable. Read our full op-ed: wsj.com/opinion/malaysia-is-…

As we've seen for the last 47 years, it's Groundhog Day. Pezeshkian as the notional President has no power and there's a mafia-like IRGC that wants and seeks conflict. My full remarks on @FoxNews foxnews.com/video/6405522049…

It’s always been about “whether we can do it.” The IRGC’s been intent on acquiring a nuclear weapon, but its efforts have always fallen short—not least due to external setbacks. Despite taqiyya re “fatwa,” a nuclear bomb is consistent with IRGC ideological and religious doctrine.
Replying to @AlexVatanka
The debate about the bomb in Iran, @HamidRezaAz said, is largely now “whether we can do it rather than whether we should do it.” -3-

UANI made a surreptitious visit to the Malaysian Exclusive Economic Zone to expose how the country provides a lifeline for the Iranian regime.

Today the Iranian regime hosted its annual UNGA meeting for think tanks and media in New York. One #Iran specialist who was previously invited told the WSJ earlier in the week, "no one wants to be seen going." But some showed up.

“Since the conflict has spread from the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz to the Red Sea, it is possible that, in response to more war, the front will expand even further, reaching the Indian Ocean and perhaps beyond,” says Yahya Rahim Safavi in a video released by #Iran’s Fars news agency. timesofisrael.com/liveblog_e…

Today #Iran's regime's President Pezeshkian is borrowing a page from Raisi in 2022 in holding up a photo of the late Ali Khamenei who addressed this very UNGA audience in 1987. The Ayatollah's men, Raisi, Soleimani, and the Ayatollah are now all dead. And Pezeshkian survived a strike during the war.
