America: The Phone Call that Changes Everything It is vitally important that journalists outside of mainstream media provide perspective. Especially when there might be an embargo on information which deeply effects every American citizen. The story keeps changing regarding why we attacked Iran. First - it was for human rights. Then it became about isotopes. Now, according to the White House Press Secretary, "they" have threatened us for 47 years." An assault - is not battery. This is certainly not about the other guy building up courage: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15694673/trump-hormuz-retreat-wall-street.html It might be related to this phone call: https://x.com/projectmeshkat/status/2038533125354016959

Of God and Politics I am not quite sure the Christian faith addresses in direct manner a Doctrine of War. But history is littered with the wars of mankind. Nothing changes - except the actors on the stage. https://www.theguardian.com/world/video/2026/mar/29/pope-says-god-rejects-prayers-of-leaders-who-wage-wars-video The Holy Father has developed an unsteady gait. If the black-and-white of it is that God does not hear the prayers of world leaders who engage wars, then it seems logical that those wearing the cloth of their nation do not stand a chance of having a necessary conversation with the Almighty. And between the black and the white, are the shades of grey. Does God answer the prayers of the keyboard warrior seated at Langley, those engaged in geo-spatial analysis at Space Command, or the prayers of the staff members of NORAD? Does He ignore the prayers of NEST - as they secure and develop contingencies for nuclear disasters whilst being a...
Threat Against our Naval Officers A threat has been issued against two Naval Officers. Their images are posted on Iranian X feeds. https://www.surfpac.navy.mil/Leaders/Biography/Article/4262401/cdr-leigh-r-tate/ https://www.surfpac.navy.mil/Leaders/Biography/Article/4262418/cdr-jeffrey-e-york/ Unfortunately, the threat is not being reported out properly by a handful of foreign media outlets. The threat includes this: "...you must go to their families." این دو جنایتکار را هرگز فراموش نمیکنیم. لی آر. تیت، فرمانده، و جفری ای. یورک، افسر اجرایی ناو یو اس اس اسپرانس، که سه بار دستور شلیک موشکهای به دختربچه های ایرانی که برخی روزه اولی بودند را داد و ۱۶۸ کودک بیگناه را در مدرسهای در میناب با زبان روزه به شهادت رساند. خودشان کافی نیستند باید درس عبرت در تاریخ شوند و باید سراغ خانواده هایشان بروید. Undoubtedly, we are aware of this threat. But I wish to make each of you aware that prayers must be extended not only for the safety of our oath keepers - but ...
47 Meets 47 In a suspension of digital existence reside the active imaginary experiences from the best our Republic has to offer. And no greater blathering about can be found than in what are/our ubiquitous "think tanks". I always refer to them as "thunk tanks" - because they always "thunk that they got it right". The link below is best served with a Pinot Mariafeld, because it is a loosely clustered happy stomp compared to the grapes of wrath which Iran is now offering to the U.S. and her Middle East allies. https://www.hudson.org/foreign-policy/ayatollahs-regime-crumbling-michael-doran 47 has now met 47. Our 47th President of the United States has now discovered the "Class of 47". Because undoubtedly, some of the men in the image taken 47 years ago are now the same men holding senior military leadership positions in the IRGC. The passion is still there. And combined with a seasoned maturity, I am not taking note of a "crumbli...
Damage Report We lost KC-135 Stratotankers and an AWACS at the Prince Sultan Airbase in Saudi Arabia a couple days ago. Today: Civilian infrastructure which supports the U.S. military is now under missile and drone attack in the UAE and Bahrain. The UAE has an aluminum factory with a substantial fire. Missiles have also targeted the Ne'ot Hovav industrial zone in Beersheeba. The first image appears graphically enriched. The Al Araby Television Network headquartered in Lusail City, Qatar has been demolished. I bet they wish that they would have stayed in London. The IRGC released the audio of a Saudi ship being warned to leave the Strait of Hormuz: "This is a serious warning. This is a serious warning. This is a serious warning. Hormuz Strait is closed. And passing through that is forbidden. You are ordered to go back to your departure immediately. If you disobey you will be destroyed. Captain, yo...
Mohamed al-Mosawi It is against my ethical framework as a journalist to post extremely graphic images. But I am making an exception due to the primitive brutality visited on a man by the government of Bahrain. There may have been a legitimate need to arrest him. There is no legitimacy attached to torture. I have always spoken against the barbarity of such practices. I believe these images are valid. Bahrain must be brought to account for unspeakable police and security interrogation actions. https://x.com/s_m_marandi/status/2037512737501163800 https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/down-king-death-bahraini-custody-sparks-angry-dissent
