{{quotebox-float|The networked supra-national stratum that long has pursued its global ‘'[[History_of_NATO#Origins_and_mission_creep|Grand Design]]’ through manufacturing public consent for wars of imposed compliance has, at last, run up against the limits to power. We are, indeed, at an ‘emperor has no clothes’ moment. All can see it.

 +
Its traditional tools — the [[US]] [[military]], the [[dollar]] system, the credit trap, the [[Bretton Woods]] structures, shock [[economic]] therapy and [[currency]] [[war]]s — are failing to preserve the [[US]] [[elitism|élite]] ''weltanschauung'' wherein it would be ‘unimaginable’ that the US having won the [[Cold War]] were it to face a world in which the US did not continue to dictate the blueprint

“In the golden light of an [[Athens]] evening, with the [[Acropolis]] over his shoulder”, [[US Secretary of State Marco Rubio]], on 7 October, openly praised [[colonialism]]; he engaged in egregious erasures of [[history]], and demanded a return to [[Western]] domination of the world. Rubio asserted that [[the West]] must use [[military]] force to “maintain its place at the head of the world”; [[the West]] is “the greatest [[civilization]] in the world”, he declared, emphasizing that it is a “civilization that we must fight to defend today with the same passion as our forefathers did”.
 +
 
 +
But now, those traditional tools to preserve its place at the head of the world are proving less effective against states that possess alternatives — [[China]], [[Russia]] and [[Iran]] are clear pointers to the trend that [[economic]], [[financial]] and even [[kinetic]] [[war]]s are failing to produce quick results. Quick victories for the Matrix are no longer so readily available.

To suggest, on the other hand, that [[civilisational state]]s could stand up to the [[US]] more forcefully ignores everything about the deep nature of this conflict.

{{quotebox-float|Given the gush of vitriol and condemnation since Oct. 9, when [[Donald Trump]] announced his deal to import 5 million metric tons of [[Russian]] [[diesel]], roughly 37 million barrels, one would think the president had surrendered the [[United States]]’ [[sovereignty]] to the [[Kremlin]], or handed over the [[Ukrainian]]s to the [[Russian army]], or rankly betrayed the [[European]]s or altogether renounced what we picturesquely call [[Western civilization]].

===Strategic Summary Late October 2026===
 +
The [[Persian Gulf]] is Closed on [[Tehran]]’s Terms: With three more tankers burning and US unmanned reconnaissance systematically downed, [[Western]] [[naval]] presence has failed to reopen the [[Strait of Hormuz]] to hostile commerce.
 +
 
 +
[[Economic sanctions]] have failed: The 10-fold increase in [[China]]-[[Iran]] rail freight traffic proves that continental integration across the [[Eurasian]] landmass provides a resilient alternative to [[Western]]-controlled sea lanes.
 +
 
 +
The multi-front [[reality]] is locked: From the [[Black Sea]] to the [[Gulf of Oman]], [[asymmetric warfare|asymmetric maritime]] and aerial strike systems have rewritten the rules of [[naval]] engagement, leaving [[capital]] fleets vulnerable to low-cost attrition.
 +
 
 +
The [[delusion]] that the [[United States]] can launch a localized, painless strike against [[Iran]] to reassert authority is collapsing before the operation even begins.
 +
 
 +
If [[Washington, D.C.|Washington]] launches its planned post-[[Midterm election|midterm]] assault, it will not trigger [[Iranian]] submission. It will detonate a multi-trillion-dollar regional conflagration that shuts down the global [[energy]] [[supply]], breaks the remaining [[naval]] architecture of the [[Middle East]], and delivers a fatal blow to the [[economic]] foundation of the late [[Western]] [[empire]].

 +
The use of tactical missiles and direct attacks against a regional power like [[Iran]] would redefine traditional concepts of [[state]] [[sovereignty]], respect for [[border]]s, and, above all, the [[logic]] of global [[nuclear deterrence]].
 +
 
 +
In [[international law]] and [[International relations|relations between states]], territorial [[sovereignty]] is the fundamental pillar. A direct attack with tactical missiles would transform that dynamic and bring an end to traditional red lines. It would demonstrate that possessing a robust conventional army or a vast territory no longer prevents invasion or direct bombardment by [[technological]]ly superior forces.
 +
 
 +
This would consolidate the idea that states can violate the [[sovereignty]] of others on the basis of anticipated threats, a precedent we already live with, but one that would reach another level with [[nuclear weapon]]s.
 +
 
 +
The most dangerous shift would occur in how countries view [[nuclear weapon]]s. [[Historical]]ly, [[deterrence]] works on the premise that the cost of attacking a country is too high. If Iran, a country on the threshold of nuclear development, is attacked in a conventional and tactical manner, the [[geopolitical]] message would first and foremost be one of encouragement to [[proliferate]].

 +
👉 In a chilling account, Yevgenia Kirichenko, a resident of Konstantinovka in the [[Donetsk People's Republic]], described (https://t.me/SputnikInt/109003) a harrowing evacuation during which a [[Ukrainian]] [[drone]] stalked her family.

📍The family survived only by diving under a tree as the explosive detonated inches away, raining shrapnel from above

👉 The targeted nature of these strikes was further evidenced by a [[high-tech]] assault on residential [[infrastructure]] in Sevastopol, which Russian authorities have condemned as an intentional act of urban [[terrorism]]

📍 The drones were loaded with metal ball bearings - a classic anti-personnel modification designed to maximize [[human]] injury over structural damage

Nonetheless, the residential building was heavily damaged, over a dozen vehicles were destroyed, and the blast wave caused extensive damage to the [[children]]’s facilities.

Two [[civilian]]s were wounded, including an elderly [[woman]] reportedly suffering a closed head injury and a [[man]] struck by shrapnel.

4. It's a Russian [[government]] scheme to get everybody to switch to cash so they can massively [[inflation|inflate]] the currency.
+
If the deal does little for the [[diesel]] shortage, it does a great deal for [[Russia]]. The volumes that are trivial against a 3 million barrel-a-day gap are not trivial as [[cash]], because diesel is now one of the most valuable commodities on earth. US diesel futures settled at about $4.80 a gallon in September, roughly $200 a barrel....Actual realized prices will depend on discounts, freight and delivery terms, and the revenue is earned first by Russian companies, reaching the state through taxes.
  
−
Given [[pragmatic]] analysis and editorial judgment, do we have enough understanding of the [[fact]]s and what happened to [[spam]] this [[CIA]] [[bullcrap]] to [[conservative]] readers and the public?
+
That money arrives when [[Moscow]] needs it. Russia’s budget was built on $59 [[Urals crude]]; in early 2026 Urals was selling in the mid-$40s to mid-$50s at deep discounts imposed by [[economic sanctions|sanctions]], and [[Bloomberg News|Bloomberg]] reported that, at those prices, the shortfall in oil and gas revenue would push the [[deficit]] to almost 2.2 trillion rubles, about $29 billion. On my numbers, the full diesel package alone would cover roughly a fifth to a quarter of that gap.

=== Russia's and China's war on food. Culinary inquisitions! ===

The sanctions relief is worth more than the announced tonnage. [[US Treasury|Treasury’s]] general license is not limited to [[fuel]] bound for the [[United States]]. It allows Russian diesel to be sold on the global market, and any cargo loaded while the license is in force is exempt from US sanctions until April 2027. That means:

Every exportable barrel benefits, not just the announced tranches. Once Russia lifts its own export ban, all of its diesel can be sold openly for six months, not just the volumes in [[Trump]]’s post. If Russia exported even 0.5 million barrels a day over that period, a figure I use only for illustration, it would earn roughly $14 billion to $18 billion at the same prices.

Smaller discounts. Sanctioned Russian crude sold at a discount of about $26.50 a barrel to Brent in February.

{{quotebox-float|So you know it is a question mark and this major conflict with [[Aramco]] [the world's largest [[corporation]] - being slowly dismantled. [[Saudi Arabia]] not having [[income]]. It's not just the [[war]] in terms of kinetic war but it is the [[economic]] war. The Saudis pay for their [[import]]s by selling [[oil]]. 82% I think or something like that 80% of their [[revenue]]s go to imports, cost of imports. At the moment they don't sell oil. So what happens? Well, you've got two choices really. Either you devalue the [[currency]], your currency, because otherwise the [[trade deficit]] will be huge and Saudi Arabia already has about $520 billion of [[debt]]. It has $420 billion of foreign exchange reserves. But I mean if you have a big [[trade deficit]] because you haven't got [[revenue]] to pay for your [[import]]s, yet your people want imports because it is, you know, a very [[consumer]]ist [[society]] and they're used to that. So if you can't do that, then you have to devalue the [[currency]]. But that means breaking the peg [with the [[dollar]] ] and what would be the consequence on other [[Gulf states]] that are on a [[dollar]] peg and would that start around on that. Secondly, you start try to sell your foreign exchange reserves but think what happened with [[Japan]]. Japan started to sell its foreign exchange reserves, but far less. It was about $89 billion or something like that off the top of my head, but far less and Saudi would have to spend to keep up the level of [[import]]s with no [[revenue]]. So, um far less. So, what would that do to the [[American]] [[bond market]]? that would you know cuz the Japanese brought about a major [[crisis]]. This could bring about an even greater uh crisis in the American bond market and I doubt the president would allow it. So, you know, it seems that [[Saudi Arabia]] is really in an economic trap as well as a trap of the destruction of its [[infrastructure]] and of its lack of anyone willing to come or able to help it. And the final dilemma of course [[Muhammad bin Salman]] is not willing really to capitulate to the [[Houthis]] in their demands because their demands are couched in terms of a complete end to the [[war]] - port for port - airport for airport - all of that has to be resuscitated. What they don't mention and isn't part of their demands as far as I know at this point is the three provinces that Saudi Arabia expropriated, I think 1934 at that time anyway..."}}

{{quotebox-float|Most of the semi-official explanations for [[Ratcliffe]]’s unannounced—until it was in process—flight to Moscow in a huge heavy lift military transport (a [[C-17]]) have failed to convince observers and analysts. By “semi-official” I mean the accounts presented in [[mainstream media]] outlets like the [[NYT]], the [[WaPo]], and [[WSJ]]—media outlets which are generally assumed to have access to official regime sources and even to serve as outlets for [[narrative]]s that the regime wishes to propagate. The unsatisfactory nature of these accounts, often centering around Ratcliffe’s use of a huge military transport (which could not make the flight without refueling) rather than his official jet—a long range Gulfstream V that could easily make the flight from [[DC]] to [[Moscow]] non-stop. The transport of a motorcade for Ratcliffe isn’t sufficient reason for the use of a C-17, since those huge transports can accommodate a motorcade and still have room for returning the remains of US service personnel who died in the [[US]] [[war]] on [[Russia]]....Today we’re seeing renewed speculation which I find plausible. It centers around the supposition that the Trump regime didn’t simply contact the [[Kremlin]] and say, ‘Hey, how’s about our boy John comes over to talk to you guys?’ The supposition, instead, is that the Russian side requested [[Ratcliffe]]’s presence in Moscow for a presentation provided by Russian officials.

'''Why the Number Was So Low'''
  
−
:Netanyahu just opened the gates of hell with that remark.
+
• High Infant Mortality: A massive driver of this low average was childhood death. Roughly 10% to 43% of children died before reaching age five due to poor sanitation and infectious diseases like smallpox, dysentery, and malaria.
 +
• Not Everyone Died Young: If a person managed to survive childhood and reach adulthood in colonial America, their outlook changed completely. Adults frequently lived well into their 60s and 70s, much like people do today.
 +
most people in the late 1700s worked until they died or were physically unable to continue. In early America, the concept of a modern "retirement" did not exist.
 +
Several cultural and economic realities shaped this lifelong labor model:
  
−
:By speaking in the tone of a foreign occupier toward the MAGA base, he has ensured they will hate Israel more than (almost) any other country going forward.
+
'''1. An Agrarian, Household Economy'''
  
−
:Trump may put up with this bullschiff for the next three years, but in 2028 the gloves are coming off.
+
In the late 1700s, the vast majority of Americans lived and worked on family farms or in family-run artisanal shops. Because work was deeply integrated into household survival, there was no institutional concept of "leaving" a job.
  
−
:Vance may not have what it takes to give Israel the retribution it deserves, and Rubio definitely doesn't.
+
• Shifting Roles: As people grew old, they didn't stop working; instead, they transitioned to less physically demanding tasks. An aging farmer might hand the heavy plowing over to his children but continue tending to livestock, repairing tools, or managing household affairs.
  
−
:In that case, the MAGA base will push forward a third candidate who would do it.

• Family Dependency: If an elderly person became completely incapacitated, they relied entirely on their children or extended family for care.
 +
• The "Poor House": For those without family or property, the options were grim. They often had to rely on local community charity or ended up in local poorhouses.
  
−
:::At this point, the MAGA base needs to start recruiting hardcore ideologues who stay true to the agenda, and primary out the fakes who want participation trophies for talking the talk.

When workers transitioned from family farms to urban factories, older individuals could no longer keep up with the grueling speed of assembly lines. This shift forced companies and the government to invent pensions and retirement ages to transition older generations out of the industrial workforce.

<blockquote>Netanyahu: There’s been a lot of foreign influence over the last two decades. There have been NGOs [non-governmental organizations] from various corners, … primarily from Europe, but also from from Qatar. That is, you know, spent billions on American universities, vilifying, vilifying Israel, vilifying Jews, and also, frankly, vilifying the United States. Because if you open Al Jazeera in Arabic, not in English, and you just track it over the years, it’s been horrible. It’s been antisemitic, anti Israeli, anti American, and all that was left to accumulate primarily in academia, you know, and from there, it sort of distributes itself elsewhere.

But I can tell you this: look, the Jewish people have had this problem of vilification for for thousands of years, and we were accused of everything. In the Middle Ages, we were accused of killing Christian children and using their blood, okay? I mean, and these lies, these, these horrible blood libels always preceded massacres. They spread from one country to the other, and there was very little we could do about it. We were vilified, and then we were massacred, until this culminated in the worst massacre of them all — the Holocaust. The Nazis said we were spreading vermin — you know, just like in the Middle Ages. What has changed since the rise of Israel is not this vilification and not these cycles of latent antisemitism that burst forth from time to time, as it’s happening now. What has changed is that it’s not followed by massacre[s], because when they try, as they did on October 7, Hamas tried, we’re able to fend them off, defend ourselves and defeat our enemies. That’s the change that Israel has brought. But I think we have the continuous battle for truth, and I appreciate the opportunity that you have given me to tell the truth.

Enten told CNN News Central‘s John Berman that, in an average of a CNN/SSRS poll and a Reuters/Ipsos poll, 76 percent of Republicans approved of the U.S.’ intervention, a walloping defeat for Carlson’s isolationist side of the MAGA civil war. Only about 18 percent of Republicans disapproved, Enten said.

'''85% of US Republicans back strikes on Iran — poll.'''

On the morning of the US midterm elections, US President Donald Trump made a startling claim in an interview with Fox & Friends: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu himself initiated a plan to end nearly $4 billion in annual American assistance to Israel.
−
25 June 2025.
 
  
−
{{Cquote|A large majority of US Republicans — 85% — back the US strikes against Iran, according to a CBS News poll.

The hosts repeatedly pressed Trump to clarify whether he meant military aid, cash, or weapons deliveries. The president insisted that the arrangement would end by December, while Israel would remain free to purchase American weapons.
  
−
A majority of 87% of Democrats and 64% of Independents disapprove of the strikes, the poll says.
+
Trump also explained the political calculation behind the move: taking away one of the Democrats’ most effective arguments against Republicans, particularly in Michigan, where Israel has become a central issue in the fiercely contested Senate race. But his announcement raises a major question: What happens to the existing US-Israel military assistance agreement, which runs through 2028?

Overall, 56% of respondents disapprove and 44% approve.

US President Donald Trump made a potentially consequential political and diplomatic announcement on Tuesday morning, as Americans headed to the polls for the midterm elections, claiming that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had personally proposed ending the approximately $4 billion in annual American assistance to Israel.

War news

Comment: It's too late now to go back to 2014, or even 2022 with so many dead.
Comment: As one commentator suggested, American foreign policy is not like New York real estate, where you don't pay contractors, forcing them to sue and settle for less.
Ukraine is a US and NATO proxy setup to conduct unprovoked full-scale war against Russia, initially by attacking Russian people in Donbass and Lugansk and Odessa.

In 2022 NATO had equipped Ukrainian armies creating the largest military force in Europe at the time for a “final solution” to kill or drive out Russian speaking Ukrainians in southern and eastern Ukraine, an effort which had begun in 2014 when the neo-Nazis overthrew the legally and democratically elected government of Ukraine.

The Russians call this war a "Special Military Operation" because it is not a war against Ukraine but rather a defensive operation against the Russophobic nations of Europe and the Anglosphere. Now of course the Americans are pretending that the war is Ukraine’s, despite providing intelligence and targeting information to Ukraine as well as weapons to US allies in Europe who provide those same weapons to Kyiv, although they get blown up on arrival for the most part.

The hypocrisy is obvious. But this is the American way of war since Vietnam...

"Please read that last paragraph again. The idea that the US can launch a new major campaign against Iran without diesel or jet fuel—or with limited supplies—is absurd. Remember, if Trump runs supplies down to zero, Russia still has what it needs.
The networked supra-national stratum that long has pursued its global ‘'Grand Design’ through manufacturing public consent for wars of imposed compliance has, at last, run up against the limits to power. We are, indeed, at an ‘emperor has no clothes’ moment. All can see it.

Its traditional tools — the US military, the dollar system, the credit trap, the Bretton Woods structures, shock economic therapy and currency wars — are failing to preserve the US élite weltanschauung wherein it would be ‘unimaginable’ that the US having won the Cold War were it to face a world in which the US did not continue to dictate the blueprint

“In the golden light of an Athens evening, with the Acropolis over his shoulder”, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, on 7 October, openly praised colonialism; he engaged in egregious erasures of history, and demanded a return to Western domination of the world. Rubio asserted that the West must use military force to “maintain its place at the head of the world”; the West is “the greatest civilization in the world”, he declared, emphasizing that it is a “civilization that we must fight to defend today with the same passion as our forefathers did”.

But now, those traditional tools to preserve its place at the head of the world are proving less effective against states that possess alternatives — China, Russia and Iran are clear pointers to the trend that economic, financial and even kinetic wars are failing to produce quick results. Quick victories for the Matrix are no longer so readily available.

To suggest, on the other hand, that civilisational states could stand up to the US more forcefully ignores everything about the deep nature of this conflict. The ‘One Global Government Grand Design’, is a war to eliminate those Civilisational States that offer a different consciousness through which to view and understand the world.

Given the gush of vitriol and condemnation since Oct. 9, when Donald Trump announced his deal to import 5 million metric tons of Russian diesel, roughly 37 million barrels, one would think the president had surrendered the United States’ sovereignty to the Kremlin, or handed over the Ukrainians to the Russian army, or rankly betrayed the Europeans or altogether renounced what we picturesquely call Western civilization.

This is, indeed, what we read daily in the corporate press these days and what we are supposed to think. It is 2016 redux, it seems. Another round of Russiagate may not be far off, given 16 House Democrats have introduced a Prohibit Corrupt Russia Oil Deals Act and 12 senators now attack the diesel accord as “a gift to our adversary.”

If there is one thing essential to recall about those dreary years it is that the wobbly-from-the-first Russiagate edifice, the whole of it, was made of mis– and disinformation, hyperbole, innuendo, extravagant abuses of office and propaganda incessantly disseminated in corporate media.

It was, in short, the Deep State’s attempt to scuttle any effort to advance beyond the poisonous Russophobia it had spent a decade cultivating (taking my date from Vladimir Putin’s era-defining speech to the Munich Security Conference in 2007).

It is the same again as Trump tries once more to end the war in Ukraine and refashion East–West relations, a project the old “MICIMATT”— the military-industrial, congressional, intelligence, media, academic and think tank blob — simply cannot abide.

User:Conservative's argument that a lack of flush toilets in the frozen north justifies war under Thomas Aquinas' Just War Theory fails the morality test. It also fails the common sense and sanity test.
Take out a pencil, draw a line down the center of the page and on the left hand-column write out every individual, nation, organization, institution and political movement that is aligned with, and advanced the global warming/climate change agenda.

Then, on the right-hand column, write out every individual, nation, organization, institution and political movement that is aligned with, advances the interests of, and support for Ukraine.

Notice something in the commonality?

They are a perfect match.

25+ years of Global Warming, Climate Change, Net Zero, Carbon Trading, Carbon Taxing, Build Back Better etc. advocacy, revolves around the singularity of one issue, energy production.

From that baseline the western nemesis of a multi-trillion investment and banking system, built around the destruction of the coal, oil and gas carbon-based energy sector is Russia.

Additionally, over the past 10 years as western interests have stopped building oil refining capacity, Russia has expanded oil refining capacity.

All ‘modern’ opposition to Russia in the last 25 years, is now culminating…. But the root is something everyone misses. The root commonality of interests is Energy Production.

The advocates for the system of dependencies created by the “climate change/net zero” energy processes are the same advocates supporting Ukraine and specifically supporting the targeting of Russian energy production vis-a-vis Russian oil refineries.

Strategic Summary Late October 2026

The Persian Gulf is Closed on Tehran’s Terms: With three more tankers burning and US unmanned reconnaissance systematically downed, Western naval presence has failed to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to hostile commerce.

Economic sanctions have failed: The 10-fold increase in China-Iran rail freight traffic proves that continental integration across the Eurasian landmass provides a resilient alternative to Western-controlled sea lanes.

The multi-front reality is locked: From the Black Sea to the Gulf of Oman, asymmetric maritime and aerial strike systems have rewritten the rules of naval engagement, leaving capital fleets vulnerable to low-cost attrition.

The delusion that the United States can launch a localized, painless strike against Iran to reassert authority is collapsing before the operation even begins.

If Washington launches its planned post-midterm assault, it will not trigger Iranian submission. It will detonate a multi-trillion-dollar regional conflagration that shuts down the global energy supply, breaks the remaining naval architecture of the Middle East, and delivers a fatal blow to the economic foundation of the late Western empire.

The nuclear option breaks down into two separately related but slightly different bombs: the B61-11 and B61-12. Their differences are crucial in understanding the potential options against Iran.

The use of tactical missiles and direct attacks against a regional power like Iran would redefine traditional concepts of state sovereignty, respect for borders, and, above all, the logic of global nuclear deterrence.

In international law and relations between states, territorial sovereignty is the fundamental pillar. A direct attack with tactical missiles would transform that dynamic and bring an end to traditional red lines. It would demonstrate that possessing a robust conventional army or a vast territory no longer prevents invasion or direct bombardment by technologically superior forces.

This would consolidate the idea that states can violate the sovereignty of others on the basis of anticipated threats, a precedent we already live with, but one that would reach another level with nuclear weapons.

The most dangerous shift would occur in how countries view nuclear weapons. Historically, deterrence works on the premise that the cost of attacking a country is too high. If Iran, a country on the threshold of nuclear development, is attacked in a conventional and tactical manner, the geopolitical message would first and foremost be one of encouragement to proliferate.

Europe

Poland’s ruling liberals plotting major escalation against Russia. [4] Fico warns: 'The West wants to provoke NATO-Russia war' - Lavrov warns of devastating response. [5] Donald Tusk: Ukraine losing 27,000 men per month. [6]

It's pretty obvious what this is all about: Now that the West has fought Russia "to the last Ukrainian", it's time to send in the German & Polish proxies. NATO was banking on a Ukraine win, although that was never a realistic hope. It did serve to exterminate much of the male Slavic population and advance the cause of weaning us off fossil fuels, however.

The mass riots in France, which started as protests over underfunded schools, are a shocking example.

But the phenomenon has been building for years, with the perceived failure of liberal democracy to make good on its promises of a better future, especially for the young and the salaried working class.

There is a growing perception among many Europeans that traditional parties of the center-left and center-right do not offer real alternatives and are led by an educated elite that has lost its connection to the poor, the workers and the young.

Facing rising deficits, expenses and interest rates, governments feel constrained in what they can do to respond.

Russian leadership has made it clear that once the remaining 10% of Donetsk Oblast is cleared, the diplomatic focus will not center on border adjustments, but on the complete demilitarization of the Ukrainian state and a legally binding revision of the European security architecture. Late October 2026 marks the point where operational realities are overtaking Western political narratives,
  • Off Cape Kaliakra in Bulgaria’s Exclusive Economic Zone, an Israeli-owned, Liberian-flagged container vessel—the K-Ship Jet—was disabled by three unmanned subsurface vessels (UUVs). The attack confirms that stand-off maritime interdiction is no longer confined to the Persian Gulf or Red Sea, but actively targets Israeli-linked commercial shipping across NATO waters in the Black Sea.
The operation occurred 20 nautical miles off the coast of a NATO member state, demonstrating that Western naval alliances cannot guarantee maritime security within their own declared economic zones.
The deployment of low-cost unmanned submersibles capable of mission-killing large commercial container ships exposes the obsolescence of capital-intensive naval planning. While Washington allocates hundreds of billions of dollars toward heavy surface combatants and nuclear-powered destroyers, the operational environment is dominated by autonomous, low-observable maritime drones costing a fraction of a single missile interceptor.
With Iran, Russia, and regional resistance axes deploying these capabilities, traditional sea lines of communication are contested across multiple theaters simultaneously.
Won't do much to quell riots. In fact, they'll only increase,


Ukraine

Of course. Unlike the Russians, Ukrainians don't have access to the ballot box. So they take sides and shoot it out in the street.
 
Zelensky has done it since the beginning in 2022. Only now, Putin, like Netanyahu, has taken the gloves off against terrorists who use human shields.
“ Some of the warehouse facilities in Myla that detonated following the Russian strike — an attack that claimed the lives of 34 residents of a senior care home — were being used by the SBU’s Alpha unit, then commanded by the current Defense Minister, Yevhen Khmara. Let that sink in: Ukraine’s Security Service — the very institution supposedly tasked with protecting people — placed ammunition stockpiles next to civilian residential facilities, exposing civilians to mortal danger. In doing so, it knowingly committed a war crime. And now the very same Khmara serves as Defense Minister, parades across the media, and lectures the public about how Ukraine supposedly “values every life.” This is a criminal regime that puts its own people in the line of fire, gets them killed, and then carries on as though no one bears the slightest responsibility. ”
How Ukraine weaponizes drones to terrorize civilians

Ukraine’s military continues to embrace a sinister and systematic pattern of warfare explicitly targeting the defenseless.

Fresh testimonies and official reports from Russian regions paint a damning picture of how drones and artificial intelligence are used by the Ukraine regime to hunt civilians, punish evacuees, and terrorize urban populations.

👉 In a chilling account, Yevgenia Kirichenko, a resident of Konstantinovka in the Donetsk People's Republic, described (https://t.me/SputnikInt/109003) a harrowing evacuation during which a Ukrainian drone stalked her family.

📍 The woman signaled to the drone operator that they were carrying an infant, yet the drone attacked

📍The family survived only by diving under a tree as the explosive detonated inches away, raining shrapnel from above

👉 The targeted nature of these strikes was further evidenced by a high-tech assault on residential infrastructure in Sevastopol, which Russian authorities have condemned as an intentional act of urban terrorism

📍 UAVs struck a five-story apartment building and two separate kindergarten facilities in the city

📍 Casualties were miraculously avoided, yet the intent was clearly lethal, Governor Mikhail Razvozhayev confirmed

📍 The drones were loaded with metal ball bearings - a classic anti-personnel modification designed to maximize human injury over structural damage

Nonetheless, the residential building was heavily damaged, over a dozen vehicles were destroyed, and the blast wave caused extensive damage to the children’s facilities.

Two civilians were wounded, including an elderly woman reportedly suffering a closed head injury and a man struck by shrapnel.

👉 AI algorithms are being deliberately integrated into this campaign of atrocity, specifically programmed to identify and destroy civilian transport.

📍 Ukrainian military programmers are coding AI to specifically target passenger buses, says Russia’s Foreign Ministry Ambassador-at-Large Rodion Miroshnik

📍Since the beginning of the year, nearly 170 passenger buses have come under fire in Russian regions

📍This calculated strategy has resulted in the deaths of 43 people, including three children, and has left 329 individuals wounded, 17 of whom are minors, Miroshnik said.

The defining public myth of Donald J. Trump has always been that of the unyielding, dominant sovereign—the master of the boardroom who barks orders, dictates terms, bends foreign leaders to his will, and answers to no one.

On Sunday, beside the golf links of Doonbeg in western Ireland, that myth was permanently dismantled.

Confronted with nationwide U.S. diesel prices breaking historical records at $6.20 a gallon—threatening to trigger freight paralysis, spike food inflation, and obliterate the Republican Party in the November midterms—Trump stepped before television cameras and delivered a public petition to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky:

“ “Mr. Zelensky has to do one thing. He has to stop knocking out diesel fuel in Russia. Let him go after targets, but not diesel fuel, because he’s causing a shortage of diesel fuel... There are plenty of other targets. Don’t hit diesel fuel, because that’s hurting the world.” ”

The spectacle was as pathetic as it was revealing.

The commander-in-chief of the most heavily armed empire in human history—the nation underwriting over 70% of Ukraine’s budget and providing 100% of the satellite targeting telemetry and intelligence that enables deep drone strikes—did not issue a presidential directive. He did not pull the plug on the targeting feeds. He did not condition the delivery of weapons.

Instead, he publicly begged his own client state for mercy...

  • After the failure of Zelensky's 40 drone campaign which resulted in the sacking of his defense minister, top military commander, and Putin escalating from his war of attrition strategy to a more aggressive approach, Zelensky announces another 40-day campaign of provocations and squandering Western aid.
In 2014, Ukrainian nationalists came to the conclusion that elections could no longer be trusted to deliver their monist vision of Ukraine in which the language, culture, and religion of the country’s ethnic Russian citizens had to be erased. So, for the first time in Ukraine’s history, they reversed an election with a coup. The central goal of that coup was to end Ukraine’s multivector foreign policy that balanced relations with Europe and Russia.
“ I think that what Donald Trump has discovered to his disappointment is that we are not what we were in 1991 militarily by any stretch of the imagination. And I think his assumption without really understanding military power and the position of the United States in the world was from the outset of his administration that we were the all powerful force that no one could resist and that anybody who resisted us would be rapidly beaten into submission. Now some people say, 'well this is Donald Trump's god complex'. I mean, the other day, I guess he spoke and told someone that the Houthis were behaving badly, which somebody said, "Who does this man think he is? God?" I'm not sure he even knows who the Houthis really are. And I don't think he has much appreciation for what the population in Yemen has been through over the last decade or two, having been either starved or bombed into submission several times by the Saudis. But at any rate, I think he truly believes that he and the American state is at the center of the universe and that we are still all powerful, which is why I think you're going to see another round of fighting with Iran. He cannot accept the fact that our military supremacy is no longer the case and neither is our economic supremacy and for that matter neither is our financial credibility. We're not even a AAA creditor in the world anymore. It's all bound up together, but he seems to be determined that he's going to return us to the unipolar moment, whether the world wants it or needs it, they're going to get it. ”
The plan is quite simple and there is nothing that hasn’t been raised before.

Ukraine’s military neutrality

Ukraine to pursue membership of the EU as a neutral state, much like Austria and Ireland

An armistice line to be drawn along the line of contact

NATO to commit to no further eastward expansion

Clearly - or at least to me - this is an edited version of the plan that the Trump White House has been pursuing.

The biggest blockages are:

getting Zelensky, the EU and Britain to commit to implementation of a plan that is based around this template, having refused to negotiate with Russia in a substantive way thus far;

getting European States to commit to a plan that would finally end the folly of Ukraine’s pursuit of NATO membership;

getting the EU finally to face up to the enormous challenge of admitting Ukraine to membership in some form, recognising the huge financial challenges this will pose to the project;

getting the EU and Britain to commit to sanctions removal from Russia, having taken steps to make them permanent. This will include the issue of the mobilisation of Russia’s frozen assets.

The list is longer than that, but the key point is that landing a deal, the shape and substance of which Ukraine and Europe have been resisting since the war started, represents a massive hurdle.

Why?

Because, at the very least, taking NATO off the table and making Ukraine a neutral state will represent an enormous strategic defeat of the west, that political leaders will have to account for to their publics, following years of open-ended and exorbitant financial commitments, during which time Europe has grown demonstrably poorer because of its war policy.

So the biggest blockage to this plan is political. But the political facts on the ground in Europe, characterised by what is happening in France right now, are bringing the final political reckoning with defeat ever closer, while making the pill more bitter.

Prof. Sachs: Europe is burning because it's in economic crisis and the political leaders in Europe don't respond to the basic interests and needs of the citizens. By the way, politically the situation is the same in the United States. Thank God the US is not burning right now, but the government is extremely unpopular in the United States because it's engaged in war rather than addressing the needs of American working families. So the situation is similar, but Europe is really suffering from its response to this mess in Ukraine. It has put on more than 20 rounds of sanctions. But what that has meant for Europe is to cut itself off from the low-cost energy that was core to Europe's competitiveness and its industrial base which, since 2022, is therefore been shrinking with jobs being lost, with living standards going down, and all the European politicians, especially in the big countries, Germany with Chancellor Merz or France with President Macron. They speak of more war. And the public doesn't want more war. The public wants peace. It doesn't want to put hundreds of billions of dollars or euros into the Ukraine war. It doesn't want to pay six times the cost of Russian natural gas by buying American liquefied natural gas shipped across the Atlantic. So the public is disgusted and the European politicians are absolutely bizarre in my view. They have been failed politicians for years.

But as the unhappiness has increased, as the approval ratings for Macron dipped below 20% and then below 15% and then reaching about 10% approval, and that means 70 or 80% disapproval. There was no reaction of the government to the unhappiness in the public, and now a spark and explosion and it's just a disaster. Of course, the economic fallout of what's happening in France is profound. Interest rates are soaring. French public debt is already very large. Now will pay a compound penalty interest rate on top of this. This will exacerbate the economic stagnation and decline being felt throughout Europe. Next door in Germany, the unpopularity of the Chancellor and his party are equivalent. This is the situation. It's a continent that is engaged in an extraordinarily unpopular war with Russia that could be ended as I am emphasizing through a sensible negotiated outcome. But the European leaders are choosing the drums of war rather than the negotiating table.

American foreign policy. We went to war to exterminate people who do not use flush toilets, and it turns out our "allies" are our worst enemy.

Russia

The real winner: Moscow

If the deal does little for the diesel shortage, it does a great deal for Russia. The volumes that are trivial against a 3 million barrel-a-day gap are not trivial as cash, because diesel is now one of the most valuable commodities on earth. US diesel futures settled at about $4.80 a gallon in September, roughly $200 a barrel....Actual realized prices will depend on discounts, freight and delivery terms, and the revenue is earned first by Russian companies, reaching the state through taxes.

That money arrives when Moscow needs it. Russia’s budget was built on $59 Urals crude; in early 2026 Urals was selling in the mid-$40s to mid-$50s at deep discounts imposed by sanctions, and Bloomberg reported that, at those prices, the shortfall in oil and gas revenue would push the deficit to almost 2.2 trillion rubles, about $29 billion. On my numbers, the full diesel package alone would cover roughly a fifth to a quarter of that gap.

The sanctions relief is worth more than the announced tonnage. Treasury’s general license is not limited to fuel bound for the United States. It allows Russian diesel to be sold on the global market, and any cargo loaded while the license is in force is exempt from US sanctions until April 2027. That means:

Every exportable barrel benefits, not just the announced tranches. Once Russia lifts its own export ban, all of its diesel can be sold openly for six months, not just the volumes in Trump’s post. If Russia exported even 0.5 million barrels a day over that period, a figure I use only for illustration, it would earn roughly $14 billion to $18 billion at the same prices.

Smaller discounts. Sanctioned Russian crude sold at a discount of about $26.50 a barrel to Brent in February. Diesel sold legally to mainstream buyers, with conventional shipping and insurance, does not need to be discounted the same way. Each dollar of discount removed is a dollar more for Moscow.

A crack in the sanctions wall. This is the first diesel license longer than the standard 30 days since the war began, and it comes weeks after Trump signed a law calling for tariffs of up to 100% on the biggest buyers of Russian oil and gas. Moscow and its customers will draw the obvious conclusion: US sanctions are negotiable, and enforcement of the new law is now in doubt. [bold added]

[ Johnson's ] assessment

This deal is politics, not supply. It gives the White House a talking point before the midterms and gives Moscow billions of dollars in hard currency plus a six-month sanctions reprieve it has sought since the war began, but it does not move the needle on the global diesel shortage. At best it offsets two weeks of a deficit that, on Miller’s assessment, will persist for years while the Gulf rebuilds. Lower pump prices, if they come, will come from demand destruction, stock draws or a reopened Strait of Hormuz, not from 35 million barrels of Russian diesel trickling in over the winter.

The larger cost is strategic. Easing sanctions for a volume this small hands Russia a financial lifeline for its war budget and trades away leverage over Moscow, and strains relations with Kyiv and Brussels, for a benefit that disappears in the noise of a 3 million barrel-a-day hole.

"SOME PARTIES HAVE MORE MAIL IN BALLOTS IN 2026 THAN DURING COVID LOCKDOWNS"
"If CDU wants to keep AfD from power, it will have to form a coalition with ALL other parties, including far-left communists.

It will now be even more obvious to everyone that there is only one real choice: remigration or replacement.

Centre-RW parties (like CDU) are now forced to show everyone they are in the replacement camp together with the globalists and communists.

To us, this was obvious all along, but never underestimate the depth to which the masses have been indoctrinated and blinded. For many of them, this will be an eye-opener.

The centre-right will now sign its own death warrant by siding with the far left, or it will split apart and be absorbed by the far-right."

Focus on waging war on Russia has destroyed Germany’s economy.
By the way, has anyone considered the irony of Germany’s latest self-destructive folly? The country has accused Russia of major terrorism over the drone “incidents” at German airports, all the while ignoring the actual proven terrorism carried out by Ukraine at the destruction of Nord Stream, which effectively crippled the entire German economy.

Poland

No doubt someone like Polish Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski, husband of Cold War warrior Anne Applebaum, would have no problem sacrificing his countrymen if called to do so by the imperial masters.

Yet we should also place all the big talk out of Warsaw in the context of Polish budgets that keep sending an increasing amount of money abroad to US weapons companies.

The budget for next year includes an absurd 4.8 percent of GDP earmarked for defense while the budget deficit, even after optimistic growth and revenue forecasts, is still slated to be 6.5 percent of GDP.

Note to User:Conservative: You need to be thinking about these things now, not after the proverbial excrement hits the fan. That's the art of true conservative thinking.
Comment: How can Poland's ruling Liberals be thinking about such ruinous policies? Cause they know the Federal Reserve Board will bail them out with the economic theories of the incompetent pedophile John Maynard Keynes by printing more Petrodollars so they can payoff their bills with the US military-industrial complex. The excuse of "Russian imperialism" is just a bunch of hokum. RobSDo heterosexual normies spend 20 yrs obsessing over gay bars, bathhouses and drag queens? 21:52, September 20, 2026 (EDT)
While it would have been better had he said that Ukraine is still seeking to do so just like the ruling liberal coalition is too, his claim at the very least ensures that allied conservative President Nawrocki will closely scrutinize any potential false flag provocation before responding as commander-in-chief.
The issue surrounds a Polish-led NATO false flag attack on Kaliningrad, the Russian trip-wire for nuclear holocaust. Russian doctrine is clear - any Western attack on Kaliningrad will be immediately responded to with nuclear weapons. Perhaps Russian doctrine needs to be updated or clarified: an Oreshnik response on the strategic assets of NATO or the attacking county/countries (Poland, Germany, UK, etc.).
reputable polling suggests that the ruling liberal coalition risks being unseated by a conservative-nationalist one after fall 2027’s next Sejm elections if the current trends hold. Scaring Poles about Russia and then attempting to imbue them with the false confidence that they can “defeat Russia rather quickly” is an extremely manipulative form of electioneering that might ultimately backfire.

It’s intellectually insulting that Poland’s ruling liberals believe that they can pull Poles in these polar opposite directions for what might be the next 12 months in order to rally them behind their coalition. The “Russophrenia” of believing that Russia is about to steamroll through NATO while also believing that NATO can easily steamroll through Russia, to cite Irish journalist Brian McDonald’s famous concept, is difficult to maintain for that long and at scale without inadvertently turning more Poles against them.

The ruling liberals’ superficial response probably won’t boost their standing among voters any more than their recent “Russophrenic” episode that reverberated across Europe over the past half-year.

The Regional Council of Western Ukraine’s Lvov Region, the cradle of its ultra-nationalist movement, voted to commemorate 2027 as the year of the “Ukrainian Insurgent Army” (UPA) and its Commander-in-Chief Roman Shukhevich. He and his organization were among the culprits of the World War II-era Volhynia Genocide that resulted in the slaughter of over 100,000 Poles. Zelensky named an elite commando unit after the UPA earlier this year at the cost of sparking a political crisis with Poland.

While Poland’s ruling liberal coalition repaired ties with Ukraine after conservative President Karol Nawrocki revoked their country’s highest honor from him in response, they briefly hardened their rhetoric towards it for electioneering reasons, and they’re now doing so once more. Prime Minister Donald Tusk condemned the resolution as “suicidal”, Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski banned the official who proposed it, and Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz called the move unacceptable

Caveat: The PBS Anchor introduces the story with the phrase, Russia's "full scale" invasion. Russia invaded with 90,000 combat troops facing 400,000 NATO-trained and equipped troops. Russia still has a force in Ukraine smaller than Ukrainian forces. Russia's invasion was not "full scale" then or now.
How to read propaganda: Any alleged news source that uses the phrase, Russia's "full scale" invasion, should be viewed as a highly questionable source that is trying to make you believe something that is not factual or true.

"They wanted to prompt the ruling coalition to condemn their plans in order to expose the liberals’ hypocrisy after their allied mayor allowed Ukrainians to hold this year’s Independence March in Warsaw despite newfound political and societal tensions with Ukraine over the Volhynia Genocide."
This doesn’t mean that they’ve since become Russian-friendly, let alone pro-Russian, just that they’re no longer exhibiting the knee-jerk reaction of automatically believing every such conspiratorial claim about it after he insultingly told them that they’re protesting against his coup on Putin’s orders.

Liberal Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk claimed during a government meeting that “We observe activity by Russia and pro-Russian politicians —both internationally and within the country, centering around our cause”. He added that “we are witnessing tensions provoked by the Russians…through the fueling of a sense of instability, based on the aggressive behaviour of opposition politicians and the president.”

France

European leaders more concerned about Russia & Putin than their own populations.
When you inquire as to the reasons for the truly nihilistic mobs rampaging across the towns and cities of France, however, you initially get answers that are far too superficial. That is, the current uprisings are blamed on unassimilated immigrants, inherently evil “leftists” and economically dispossessed and culturally deracinated youth.

This may be. But these are symptoms, not causes. The real cause is that crushing taxes, easy welfare and evaporating birth rates among the native population in France—and much of the West as we amplify below—are denuding the French economy of growth and opportunity. At the same time, the socio-economic vacuums are being filled with welfare and segregated populations of largely disadvantaged immigrants.

For years the Gulf monarchies have been told that the path to security runs through Washington and Tel Aviv. Sign the Abraham Accords, buy Israeli defense and surveillance technology, invest in the right American funds, and you will be protected. Then came this war. Refineries in Saudi Arabia, LNG trains in Qatar and energy facilities across the region were hit, and none of those partnerships kept the missiles and drones away....
  • IMF's October 2026 outlook: Kuwait's economy is forecast to shrink 16.7 percent in 2026. Qatar's will shrink 15.6 percent, and Bahrain's 11.3 percent. The UAE, long sold as the region’s safe haven, is now expected to contract 3.9 percent, a seven-point swing from the IMF's April 2026 forecast. Saudi Arabia is forecast to shrink 3.3 percent. The only Persian Gulf economy still growing is Oman, and that is because its ports sit outside the Strait of Hormuz.
Comment: This isn't good for interest rates. Gulf economies used to buy US Treasury debt with oil profits. Now that they are not producing, they won't be financing the US budget deficit any more. In fact, should peace ever arrive, they will need to sell US Treasury debt to finance reconstruction. In the meantime, they will be selling US Treasury debt just to survive.

Washington has a plan for Iran. According to a source close to the White House, the plan is to seize one or more of Iran’s islands in the Persian Gulf. Senator Chris Murphy, who says he has been briefed on what the administration intends to do after Tuesday’s midterms, summed it up this week in four words: “their plan is insane.”
Iranian defense planners have completed targeting packages designating an estimated $2.5 to $3 trillion in regional energy infrastructure, municipal desalination facilities, and underwater fiber-optic trunk cables spanning the Persian Gulf floor. Should the White House authorize the planned post-election air campaign, Tehran’s doctrine of asymmetric mutual escalation guarantees the destruction of the economic foundation of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states.
You take on the intelligence community, they got six ways from Sunday of gettin' back at cha.

Israel

The Israeli establishment has correctly understood that the U.S. is a declining power and that there will come a time when it cannot depend on it. The proposed solution is essentially to become ZISIS (Zionist State of Israel). However, CIA reports warn of civil war and state collapse....
"You’ve lost the Democratic Party, and you’re losing the Republican Party. And it’s all because of foolishness on your part. I want to tell Israelis, ‘Shame on you! Shame on all of you. Your fathers and your grandfathers fought for this place, and you’re losing it because of foolishness. Period.’”

Iran

The US killed multiple civilians in southern Iran using new “precision” missiles with a wide damage radius, conflict monitoring group Airwars has found...In an investigation published on Monday, the London-based watchdog examined three February 28 strikes in the city of Lamerd that killed at least 21 civilians, including seven children...It concluded that the weapons used were likely Lockheed Martin’s Precision Strike Missiles that are designed to explode above the ground, spraying tens of thousands of dense tungsten pellets in all directions rather than relying primarily on the blast itself...
How come this stuff is never publicly discussed before the US stumbles into another stupid war? Or if it is discussed, why are people who raise such questions accused of "anti-Americanism"?

Saudi Arabia

Epstein buddy MBS is in big trouble with Muslims.
From Zerohedge: "Bangladesh is seeking answers on why Saudi Arabia executed two Bangladeshi nationals in the city of Mecca - which is considered holy in Islam - without telling Dhaka."
What this incident illustrates is the Wahhabi tradition does not recognize the Western concept of "nation state". All visitors to Mecca are citizens of Islam, and they shouldn't have to show a passport to fulfill a religious obligation.
So you know it is a question mark and this major conflict with Aramco [the world's largest corporation - being slowly dismantled. Saudi Arabia not having income. It's not just the war in terms of kinetic war but it is the economic war. The Saudis pay for their imports by selling oil. 82% I think or something like that 80% of their revenues go to imports, cost of imports. At the moment they don't sell oil. So what happens? Well, you've got two choices really. Either you devalue the currency, your currency, because otherwise the trade deficit will be huge and Saudi Arabia already has about $520 billion of debt. It has $420 billion of foreign exchange reserves. But I mean if you have a big trade deficit because you haven't got revenue to pay for your imports, yet your people want imports because it is, you know, a very consumerist society and they're used to that. So if you can't do that, then you have to devalue the currency. But that means breaking the peg [with the dollar ] and what would be the consequence on other Gulf states that are on a dollar peg and would that start around on that. Secondly, you start try to sell your foreign exchange reserves but think what happened with Japan. Japan started to sell its foreign exchange reserves, but far less. It was about $89 billion or something like that off the top of my head, but far less and Saudi would have to spend to keep up the level of imports with no revenue. So, um far less. So, what would that do to the American bond market? that would you know cuz the Japanese brought about a major crisis. This could bring about an even greater uh crisis in the American bond market and I doubt the president would allow it. So, you know, it seems that Saudi Arabia is really in an economic trap as well as a trap of the destruction of its infrastructure and of its lack of anyone willing to come or able to help it. And the final dilemma of course Muhammad bin Salman is not willing really to capitulate to the Houthis in their demands because their demands are couched in terms of a complete end to the war - port for port - airport for airport - all of that has to be resuscitated. What they don't mention and isn't part of their demands as far as I know at this point is the three provinces that Saudi Arabia expropriated, I think 1934 at that time anyway..."

Most of the semi-official explanations for Ratcliffe’s unannounced—until it was in process—flight to Moscow in a huge heavy lift military transport (a C-17) have failed to convince observers and analysts. By “semi-official” I mean the accounts presented in mainstream media outlets like the NYT, the WaPo, and WSJ—media outlets which are generally assumed to have access to official regime sources and even to serve as outlets for narratives that the regime wishes to propagate. The unsatisfactory nature of these accounts, often centering around Ratcliffe’s use of a huge military transport (which could not make the flight without refueling) rather than his official jet—a long range Gulfstream V that could easily make the flight from DC to Moscow non-stop. The transport of a motorcade for Ratcliffe isn’t sufficient reason for the use of a C-17, since those huge transports can accommodate a motorcade and still have room for returning the remains of US service personnel who died in the US war on Russia....Today we’re seeing renewed speculation which I find plausible. It centers around the supposition that the Trump regime didn’t simply contact the Kremlin and say, ‘Hey, how’s about our boy John comes over to talk to you guys?’ The supposition, instead, is that the Russian side requested Ratcliffe’s presence in Moscow for a presentation provided by Russian officials. This seems plausible to me because of the rising tensions between Russia and the Anglo-Zionists brought on by increased attacks on Russia from that quarter...
Sources say there was a refrigeration unit onboard the C-17 which adds to the speculation that the mission was to retrieve bodies of dead CIA operatives.
Comment: More and more it appears Russia initiated the request to send Ratcliffe to Moscow rather than the narrative that Ratcliffe was directed by Washington to carry threats or an ultimatum.
Over the last decade, the US federal government has spent $3.1 trillion on foreign wars. Add overall defense spending and you get a grand total of $8.2 trillion. Over half of the Pentagon’s discretionary defense spending —54% —goes to private contractors, compared to almost zero for China. U S private contractors have a minimum profit margin of 10% —some critics say much higher, around 20%

Now, compare to China, which, of course, has spent nothing on foreign wars. China as spent just around $3 trillion on defense over decade, or about or about 35% of the US total.

Only about 10% of US defense spending goes to defense of the homeland. The rest goes to the US’s global reach and offensive capabilities.

95%~98% of China’s defense spending goes to its borders and its Pacific Perimeter to counter the threat from the US and its allies. The US Federal government spent $1.21 trillion on infrastructure over the last 10 years. China spends $2 trillion to $3 trillion annually.

The numbers here are all ballpark figures — they are approximations. But no matter how you fudge them, the result is clear— the US cannot develop while wasting money on foreign wars and attempts at global domination.

  • Sulfur is a byproduct of cleaning sour gas and crude oil. Turned into sulfuric acid, it is the indispensable ingredient in phosphate fertilizer. Without it, phosphate rock stays rock. Sulfur that sold for about $400 a ton before the war now costs more than $1,000. In July, Abu Dhabi’s national oil company set its official price at $1,000 a ton.
  • excerpt of "Email from Florida":
The Mosaic Company here in Florida. Today, October 5th at 9 am we were notified that effective today, the South Fort Meade Mine will cease all operations. Therefore all phosphate mining at that mine will be shut down. ...The reason why they are suspending operations is the high price and lack of sulfur….the main driver. Also affecting our production and operations at the mines are high diesel prices. Couple that with high fertilizer prizes, due to high sulfur and diesel prices, that farmers are no longer able to or willing to pay, high tariffs, and now also Trump removing import bans of Belarusian potash and Russian and Moroccan fertilizer; which are much cheaper than what we can produce at the moment

Why are we in Ukraine or why even do we still maintain 100,000 military personnel in Europe in bases scattered all around the continent?

The answer is, of course, is not to protect our European NATO allies from an invasion by the Rooskies. For crying out loud, whatever Putin’s faults may be, he isn’t stupid.

Just look at the societal basket cases in Europe today—exemplified by the chaos on the streets of France and Italy, the self-imposed unraveling of the German industrial economy and the woke la la land called England. Why in the hell would Putin ever want to invade these socialist economic disasters—even if he had the military and fiscal wherewithal, which he most definitely does not.

The moment Donald J. Trump stated the obvious on Truth Social—that Volodymyr Zelensky never wanted peace and has used Western billions to perpetuate an unviable war while Ukraine lies in shambles—the predictable machinery of the Atlanticist establishment activated.

Within hours, headlines across the British and American corporate press dusted off the scripts of 2017: Trump is once again labeled a traitor, a capitulator, and a covert agent doing the bidding of Vladimir Putin.

Mark Carney was previously the head of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England where De Nederlandsche Bank transferred the gold.

Mark Rutte is from the Netherlands. He previously served as the Prime Minister of the Netherlands before becoming NATO’s General Secretary.

We have all watched Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney proclaim his devotion to the European NATO alliance, and we’ve watched the EU-NATO alliance embrace him as their foil against the geopolitical reset underway by U.S. President Donald Trump.

All of the timing, the events, the moves and statements, the visible appearances and the odd shifts in narrative all seem to align in one direction.

Is it just a coincidence that at the exact time when Carney is feeling the economic heat from Canadian economic outcomes, the central bank from the home country of the NATO head Mark Rutte, De Nederlandsche Bank, shifts gold from Canada to London, and that coincides with just the right amount of value ($1.1 billion) to shift Canadian GDP statistics, and give Carney political breathing room domestically?… [55]

The recent violent unrest in Paris is linked to those 2024 French election results — The election engineered a fractured, deadlocked parliament that Macron hoped to manipulate. This fuelled deepening public anger at the European Ruling élite's refusal to accept accountability for the mistakes that had led to the wider European economic crisis.

Key aspects of France’s crisis — out-of-control immigration, failing public services and growing cost of living pressures — are common to virtually all major liberal economies. In short, though the economic problems associated with western states may appear to each have their unique national characteristics, they all have deeper roots that lie with the financialised western response to the Great Financial Crisis of 2008.

The point now is that these contradictions and tensions are reaching their zenith through the related interlinked conflicts in Ukraine, Iran and Yemen-Saudi that now risk taking the economic crisis to an altogether different level of financial crisis — one that could end in systemic breakdown.

Pushing the crisis to climax arises from the pursuit of two contradictory objectives at the same time — firstly, the maintenance of a costly welfare states, whilst secondly indulging in wars intended to maintain the western place, per Marco Rubio, at the "head of the world". It is these wars that - predictably enough - have caused the soaring costs of living that are breaking the budget of most liberal economic states.

Is the MAGA base, or at least the User:Conservative/Lady Lindsey wing of the MAGA base, really that ignorant and stupid?
As the midterms approach, Trump has been busy insinuating a renewed assault on Iran. During recent rallies, he threatened to “do a number on Iran” the likes of which we’ve never seen.

Nonsensically, after remarking that Iran “cannot and will not have a nuclear weapon”, he then claims that ability is now “buried under thousands of tons of rock.” The logical question which follows is why, then, the need for further attacks? It’s the same old inexplicable contradiction that the gullible MAGA base is meant to swallow like morning porridge.

No one believes that crap or Donald Trump anymore.
Iranian defense planners have completed targeting packages designating an estimated $2.5 to $3 trillion in regional energy infrastructure, municipal desalination facilities, and underwater fiber-optic trunk cables spanning the Persian Gulf floor. Should the White House authorize the planned post-election air campaign, Tehran’s doctrine of asymmetric mutual escalation guarantees the destruction of the economic foundation of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states.

The delusion that the United States can launch a localized, painless strike against Iran to reassert authority is collapsing before the operation even begins. If Washington launches its planned post-midterm assault, it will detonate a multi-trillion-dollar regional conflagration that shuts down the global energy supply, breaks the remaining naval architecture of the Middle East, and delivers a fatal blow to the economic foundation of the late great Western empire.

For more than 50 years, US protection of the Gulf monarchies has helped support global demand for dollars and US government debt. That bargain may now be coming under strain.

The concept is straightforward.

The US provides military protection to countries such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Qatar.

In return, these countries price much of their oil in US dollars and recycle large amounts of their oil revenue into US financial assets, including Treasuries.

If the Gulf monarchies conclude that the US cannot protect their oil infrastructure, shipping lanes, cities, and regimes from Iran, why should they continue upholding their side of the bargain?

That question could reshape the international monetary system.

Gay bathhouse tourism

Imagine, sitting in front of your computer for 20 years Googling the names and location of gay bars & bathhouses worldwide, square footage and amenities, and popular performers at such. AI, consulting Gay travel guides, is a big help and makes the task much simpler.

With arguments for peace or war, escalation, killing people and Ukraine aid framed by AI like below, it's easy to see why the American people are turning against AI and its potential abuses:

Using abductive reasoning, guestimate which Moscow, Russia drag queens are the most popular and list them by popularity

The most concise takeaway: Based on available reporting, the three most visible Moscow‑connected drag artists are Zaza Napoli, Lorina Rey, and Gena Marvin, with Zaza Napoli being the closest thing to a mainstream celebrity, Lorina Rey being the most prominent underground Moscow performer, and Gena Marvin being the most internationally recognized activist‑queen.

Below is a structured abductive “best‑guess” ranking grounded in the search results.

🏆 Abductive popularity ranking (Moscow‑connected drag queens)

This ranking uses abductive reasoning: inferring “most likely popularity” from visibility, media coverage, cultural influence, and public reach.

1. Zaza Napoli — Mainstream celebrity status

A long‑established Moscow nightlife figure with TV credits, music releases, and high‑profile event hosting.

Referred to as the “Queen of Russian Drag” in community events.

Performs internationally and maintains a broad entertainment presence beyond queer venues.

This level of mainstream crossover strongly suggests the highest popularity among Moscow‑associated drag performers.

2. Lorina Rey — Most visible underground Moscow drag artist

A pioneering Moscow‑based queen highlighted in international fashion media (Dazed).

Known for avant‑garde, boundary‑pushing drag and a strong online presence.

Frequently cited as one of the most visible and outspoken figures in modern Russian drag.

Her prominence in Moscow’s queer scene suggests she is the most popular within the underground/club culture.

3. Gena Marvin — Internationally recognized activist‑queen

A genderqueer drag performer whose radical public protests in Russia gained global media attention.

Has over 137k Instagram followers, indicating significant public reach.

Although now in exile (Paris), her fame originates from Moscow‑centered activism and performances.

High international visibility places her third in Moscow‑connected popularity.

Why these three dominate the abductive ranking

Media visibility: All three appear in major outlets (Dazed, PinkNews, Moscow Times).

Cultural impact: Each has shaped Russian drag in a distinct way—mainstream entertainment, underground artistry, political activism.

Public reach: Zaza Napoli’s TV presence, Lorina Rey’s fashion‑media coverage, and Gena Marvin’s large social following provide measurable indicators.

Kalshi update

👉 US tech companies closely aligned with Donald Trump are reportedly wooing his political opponents ahead of the November midterm elections.

Meta, Palantir and other companies reportedly fear that a possible Democratic takeover of the US Congress could put their financial ties to Trump under scrutiny, exposing them to subpoenas and congressional hearings, according to The Wall Street Journal. Democrats need just four seats in the Senate and three in the House to take control of Congress.

So, to avoid potential investigations, executives are donating heavily to Democrats, hiring former Democratic aides and setting up teams to assess their vulnerabilities.

🔴 The move by exchange & prediction traders Kalshi - which has hired Democrat aides - is especially telling, given that it hired Donald Trump Jr. as its strategic advisor in January 2025. In March, Trump Jr. fought to shield the rapidly expanding industry from scrutiny by state and federal regulators – while rumors of insider trading swirl around the Trump family (https://t.me/geopolitics_prime/73669). Is Kalshi about to turn its back on him?

🔴 At Meta, Palantir, Amazon.com and Chevron, executives are reportedly preparing for potential congressional probes and hearings

🔴 Meta has donated at least $10 million to nonprofit groups aligned with Democratic House and Senate leaders – but it is also hedging its bets with another $10 million to similar groups supporting Republican candidates

🔴 Palantir’s position is less straightforward. In April, The Hill reported that Democrats were rejecting the company’s donations, wary of its growing political toxicity over links to mass civilian deaths in Gaza and immigration raids in the US. Palantir has secured several major deals under Trump’s second term, including a $30 million ICE contract for an “Immigration Lifestyle Operating System”, a $1 billion DHS purchasing agreement, and a $10 billion ten-year contract with the Pentagon (https://t.me/geopolitics_prime/73414)

Probes underway

Donald Trump Jr. and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner (https://t.me/geopolitics_prime/73148) are already under scrutiny:

➡️ In August, US lawmakers opened a probe into 1789 Capital, the venture firm where Trump Jr. sits on the board, questioning its lucrative investments in companies that secured government contracts

➡️ Earlier this year, lawmakers also began scrutinizing Kushner’s overseas business dealings while he participates in US peace efforts

➡️ If Democrats win, they could use subpoena power to compel Trump family members to testify about their controversial financial dealings

Perhaps if Trump had not pursued aggressive immigration crackdowns, pressured Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu to secure peace in Gaza, or launched the humiliating war in Iran, he might have had better odds of holding onto power. Even his efforts to stave off a US financial crisis with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent (https://t.me/geopolitics_prime/73674) and AI giants' (https://t.me/geopolitics_prime/73683) maneuvers may not be enough to save him.

"I am likewise demanding compensation from Iran, for all of the people that they have killed and gravely wounded with their roadside bombs and many conflicts, for which they are famous, as led initially by General Soleimani, including the families of those killed on the USS Cole, and thousands of others killed in combat." [74]

The Sunni Al-Qaeda group, one of Iranian Shia Islam's biggest enemies (ISIS headchoppers targeted Shia Muslims over Christians & Jews) claimed responsibility for the USS Cole bombing. It's why Trump says former ISIS leader and current Syrian President Al-Sharaa would do a better job cleaning up Shia Hezbollah in Lebanon than the IDF.

So is Trump just an uninformed idiot or a deliberate deceptive liar playing on people's prejudices to gin up support for more US-backed bloodshed? You decide.

The propaganda BS is getting too deep. Either Trump's an idiot or he needs better advisors than just "yes men". RobSDo heterosexual normies spend 20 yrs obsessing over gay bars, bathhouses and drag queens? 13:06, August 11, 2026 (EDT)

Trump Approval takes another dump

C'mon User:Conservative, tell us how the "Red Wave" is going to lead us into that bright, conservative future with more warmongering and Keynesian deficit spending you spammed into Conservapedia for the past 5 years.

Andy, This is what happens when you allow an editor free rein to spam his personal animosity against other users in Conservapedia, which you have done since 2011 and my first desysopping.

Disclaimer: This is not a solicitation to buy the BS of their Democrat Uniparty associates who will probably be worse.
Of course, we can always do the tried and accepted mode of hiding out heads in the sand and pretending facts don't exist.
Just checked the latest betting odds. 89.1% chance the Democrats take the House, 61.7% chance the Democrats take the Senate. The picture gets even more dire when you run those numbers through this probability calculator. 95.8% chance the Democrats take at least one House, 55.0% chance they take both Houses. 40.9% chance of a split Congress, and just 4.2% chance of the GOP keeping both Houses. Trump has only himself to blame at this point.--Geopolitician (talk) 17:53, September 21, 2026 (EDT)
  • The Midterm Betrayal: The remark that Iran is merely playing a waiting game until November—followed by his dismissive shrug that the midterms do not matter because his own name isn’t on the ballot—revealed the absolute contempt he harbors for his own party, his populist working-class base, and the American Republic itself.

...Starting in January in the new House investigations against Trump and the people working for him will be launched immediately. In nine to twelve months there will be the first impeachments. From January onward, Trump will be a lame duck.

This outcome is the price President Trump has to pay for diverting from nearly all of his campaign promises. He did not end the war in Ukraine. He has launched a completely unnecessary war against Iran (twice) which led to a significant inflation increase. He has enriched himself through unethical schemes (crypto). The people around him are openly corrupt.

Trump will respond by firing some of his people. To regain some standing, he may try to shut down the two wars – Iran and Ukraine – he is directly involved in.

The first pawn to go will be Secretary of Defense Hegseth. Nobody will lose a tear for him.

The two people behind the war in Iran are Trump’s chief of staff (and Netanyahoo confident) Susie Wiles, as well as Trump’s Mossad handler and son in law Jared Kushner. There are plenty of reasons, including corruption, to fire both.

To end the war in Ukraine will necessitate to get rid of CIA Director Ratcliffe. It is the CIA, not the Pentagon, which is running the show in Kiev. This will be difficult to do as Ratcliffe is a deep-state plant. The Democrats want to continue the war in Ukraine and give him some cover.

The real mess for Trump will only start after the popping AI bubble drags down the markets. The damage to people’s prosperity will be huge and there is little that he can do about it. But there are still a few month until that happens. After that it will be Treasury Secretary Bessent who will be fired.

There is a significant chance that Trump will not survive the next two years.

I have no feeling yet how the first presidency of JD Vance might pan out.

  • [ The Hegemonic Echo]

{{quotebox-float|Donald Trump’s political movement was built upon an explicit promise: to dismantle the globalist consensus that squandered trillions on nation-building, offshored domestic industries, and dragged the United States into endless wars.

Yet an examination of the personalities directing Trump’s foreign policy apparatus reveals that the distinction between the “globalist” and the “neoconservative” is a distinction without a difference:

Both camps start from the premise that the United States has the right to police the planet and determine the internal political structures of sovereign nations.

The globalist demands that Russia submit to the expanding borders of Atlanticist institutions.

The neoconservative insists on inflicting a military and economic defeat to shatter the Russian state outright.

When Trump empowers figures like John Ratcliffe and Marco Rubio, he is not challenging the globalist architecture; he is simply assigning its enforcement to its most aggressive practitioners.

The neoconservatives do not seek an “America First” withdrawal from foreign cauldrons; they view the United States as an instrument of force to eliminate any [[nation] that stands outside the Western financial orbit.

By allowing the CIA to direct Project Ukraine, Trump has surrendered the execution of his policy to the very institutional forces he pledged to defeat.

2. Langley’s Escalation: John Ratcliffe and the Deep-Strike Machine

The reporting published by The Atlantic—an outlet with historic ties to the Anglo-American intelligence establishment—confirms that the operational core of the war is situated in Langley, Virginia:

The trajectory of this escalation reveals Ratcliffe’s influence:

The Sidelining of Realists: The intelligence apparatus moved early to neutralize internal critics. As hinted in The Atlantic, Ratcliffe played a central role in isolating and pushing out figures like Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, whose public skepticism of foreign entanglements threatened the CIA’s operational monopoly....}}

The problem of User:Conservative leaning too much on his realist hero John Mearsheimer

Andy, I warned you more than two years ago that User:Conservative's editing was creating a split in the MAGA base in advance of the 2026 & 2028 elections. As the Democrats now take over, It can't be business as usual.

Here, for example, is a problem with granting John Mearsheimer the level of credibility User:Conservative has vested in him in Conservapedia: [76]

“ [Trump]'s dead wrong on both World War I and World War II. I won't talk about World War I, but I will talk about World War II where of course he's dead wrong. And also I think he's showing great disrespect to Russia and to the former Soviet Union for the enormous price that they paid in defeating the Wehrmacht in World War II. ”
I warned against spamming too much or making Mearsheimer a credible and authoritive expert into dozens and dozens of Conservapedia Mainspace and talk pages for several years. Now Mearsheimer says President Trump is delusional and his so-called "peace" efforts are doomed to fail. So here we created a problem for ourselves which now has be dealt with for the remainder of Trump's term.
And to argue against Mearsheimer is to place oneself into the warmonger and advocate of perpetual war camp. RobSZelensky Must Go! 01:55, May 11, 2025 (EDT)

User:Conservative logic extrapolated

There are over 300 gay bathhouses in America, and Donald Trump has done nothing to shut them down. RobSWWJD: Would he claim 2 gay bathhouses in Russia compared to 300 in America justifies nuclear war? 10:42, June 11, 2026 (EDT)

[Grok: Does User:Conservative of Conservapedia apparently have an affinity for gay bath houses?]

Yes, User:Conservative, a long-time administrator and prolific editor on Conservapedia since 2007, has demonstrated an apparent affinity for the topic of gay bathhouses through repeated contributions...These fit into a broader pattern where roughly 10–15% of their recent edits (out of hundreds) focus on Russia-related topics, blending geopolitical critique with niche details on LGBTQ+ suppression under Vladimir Putin."

I trust this clarifies matters. RobSWWJD? Would he claim 2 gay bathhouses in Russia compared to 300 in America justifies nuclear war? 21:46, June 15, 2026 (EDT)

User:Conservative is an admitted troll, incapable of intelligent discussion who confesses that the reaction to his harassment of other editors makes him feel "alive".

User:Conservative eschewing the endorsement of his claim to fame by the United States Justice Department in favor of Lewis Black tells a neutral observer everything they need to know.

This is how sick the man's mind is: He thinks by spamming "Russia Russia Russia Gay Gay Gay" for nearly 5 years, anyone who doesn't condemn Russia is promoting the gay agenda. Only he can't even read what AI says -- that User:Conservative has been attacking Vladimir Putin & Russia BECAUSE of Russia's anti-gay laws.

The Founding Fathers never made it an inalienable right that one could retire at 65. In 1776, the average male life expectancy in America was about 35 to 38 years old. Get out of your Lazy Boy chair grandpa!

Note: The Founding Fathers claimed inalienable rights came from God, not man or the Founding Fathers, a fact that seems to escape User:Conservative's logic and mind.

Why the Number Was So Low

• High Infant Mortality: A massive driver of this low average was childhood death. Roughly 10% to 43% of children died before reaching age five due to poor sanitation and infectious diseases like smallpox, dysentery, and malaria. • Not Everyone Died Young: If a person managed to survive childhood and reach adulthood in colonial America, their outlook changed completely. Adults frequently lived well into their 60s and 70s, much like people do today. most people in the late 1700s worked until they died or were physically unable to continue. In early America, the concept of a modern "retirement" did not exist. Several cultural and economic realities shaped this lifelong labor model:

1. An Agrarian, Household Economy

In the late 1700s, the vast majority of Americans lived and worked on family farms or in family-run artisanal shops. Because work was deeply integrated into household survival, there was no institutional concept of "leaving" a job.

• Shifting Roles: As people grew old, they didn't stop working; instead, they transitioned to less physically demanding tasks. An aging farmer might hand the heavy plowing over to his children but continue tending to livestock, repairing tools, or managing household affairs.

2. No Financial Safety Nets

There were no corporate pensions, no Social Security, and no retirement savings accounts in the 18th century.

• Family Dependency: If an elderly person became completely incapacitated, they relied entirely on their children or extended family for care. • The "Poor House": For those without family or property, the options were grim. They often had to rely on local community charity or ended up in local poorhouses.

3. The Shift to Modern Retirement

Retirement as a mass phenomenon only emerged much later with the Industrial Revolution in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. When workers transitioned from family farms to urban factories, older individuals could no longer keep up with the grueling speed of assembly lines. This shift forced companies and the government to invent pensions and retirement ages to transition older generations out of the industrial workforce.

Oligarchs and Elections, the Endgame

24 hours before...

Per Election Betting Odds:

As of 6:00 PM today, exactly 24 hours to the minute before the first polls close on Election Day, the betting market odds are as follows:

HOUSE - 93.9% chance the Democrats take the House.

SENATE - 76.3% chance the Democrats take the Senate. Six Senate seats are projected to flip from Republican to Democrat: Alaska, Kansas, Maine, North Carolina, Ohio, and Texas.

GOVERNORSHIPS - Five governorships are projected to flip from Republican to Democrat: Alaska, Georgia, Iowa, Nevada, and Ohio. Meanwhile, one governorship is projected to flip from Republican to Democrat: Kansas. With a net loss of four governorships for the Republicans, the Democrats would control a majority of them for the first time since 2010.

Such an outcome would mean the following historic events:

1. Alaska elects a a Democrat senator for the first time since 2008, and a Democrat governor for the first time since 1998.
2. Georgia elects a Democrat governor for the first time since 1998.
3. Iowa elects a Democrat governor for the first time since 2006.
4. Kansas elects a Democrat senator for the first time since 1932.
5. Maine elects a Democrat senator for the first time since 1988.
6. North Carolina elects a Democrat senator for the first time since 2008.
7. Ohio elects a Democrat governor for the first time since 2006.
8. Texas elects a Democrat senator for the first time since 1988.

Aid to Arabs will continue VS Bibi suggested to end aid to Israel, Trump agreed & highlights uniqueness of this ally

Donald Trump: Agreed with Benjamin Netanyahu to stop US funding to Israel at the end of 2026 | The Jerusalem Post.

Trump: US will stop funding to Israel after end of 2026, will 'help Israel if they need it'. The president went on to praise Israel as a particularly reliable American ally, contrasting its conduct with that of other US partners.

By Idan Kweller. November 3, 2026.

On the morning of the US midterm elections, US President Donald Trump made a startling claim in an interview with Fox & Friends: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu himself initiated a plan to end nearly $4 billion in annual American assistance to Israel.

The hosts repeatedly pressed Trump to clarify whether he meant military aid, cash, or weapons deliveries. The president insisted that the arrangement would end by December, while Israel would remain free to purchase American weapons.

Trump also explained the political calculation behind the move: taking away one of the Democrats’ most effective arguments against Republicans, particularly in Michigan, where Israel has become a central issue in the fiercely contested Senate race. But his announcement raises a major question: What happens to the existing US-Israel military assistance agreement, which runs through 2028?

US President Donald Trump made a potentially consequential political and diplomatic announcement on Tuesday morning, as Americans headed to the polls for the midterm elections, claiming that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had personally proposed ending the approximately $4 billion in annual American assistance to Israel.

About two-thirds of U.S. midterm voters say Trump's policies have worsened economic conditions in the U.S., while only about 3 in 10 say they've improved things, The AP Voter Poll found. Similarly, about two-thirds of voters said Trump's tariff policies have hurt the national economy.

Max Blumenthal: [https://thegrayzone.substack.com/p/how-iran-defeated-trumps-israel-first How Iran defeated Trump’s Israel First GOP

{{quotebox-float|Trump wrote his own epitaph when he declared, "If people ever got tired of me in the US, I'll move to Israel and become prime minister."

Trump launched a failed war on Iran for Israel last February, as his NSC director and Secretary of State Marco Rubio admitted. Now, the war has come home.

Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz became a vice grip around the neck of Trump and the GOP, especially in the heartland, where diesel prices are 70% higher than a year ago, and farmers have been forced to leave crops in the ground. 74% of Americans told pollsters the failed Iran war was a crucial or major factor in their vote tonight, and over 60% said they were voting against the Republicans because of it.

Democrats won senate races in Kansas and Nebraska, agro producer states where Republicans always roll to victory like a big wheel through a corn field. They also flipped a seat in Iowa, which Trump won by 12 points in 2024, giving them control of the senate.

A Democrat has taken the seat of Lindsey Graham, the late neocon who advised Netanyahu on how to manipulate Trump into the war, resoundingly defeating his sister in South Carolina
