I Will Not Subject You to This Took a look at this for fun:  https://buymeacoffee.com/privacy-policy Unfortunately, using digital communication devices means the devices own us.  A bit like an early conditioning for  666. Years ago, I queried an analyst:   "Where is (redacted)? "He is with his phone." It was the humorous response. He later queried me: "Where is (redacted) individual? His phone has gone silent." The journalist made one visit to a man who made one call. "He is just now boarding a flight from point A to point B. Your confidentiality - what little you now retain - is of vast importance to me.  This includes an aggregate of information as to the timepiece you wear, the brand of dental floss preferred, and choice of wine with dinner.   Oh wait!  If you used a credit card, it is all there. About to travel the Strait of Messina and hope to avoid the Fata Morgana.  For steady readership, this is your signal that I am about to ent...

Tehran Tells America and Israel to Eat Crow Iran floated this picture and stated this is the missile base which President Trump stated he had destroyed,  which was used to attack Israel.  The Israeli flag is a nice touch. sigh   Here is the blather from the Victory Lap: طبق اطلاعاتی که وجود دارد، ایران حداقل حدود ۲۰ موشک بالستیک به‌ سمت اسرائیل شلیک کرده است. در شمال حیفا، در منطقه ناهاریا، موشک ها به برخی پایگاه‌های موقت اسرائیل در مناطق روستایی و به پایگاه هوایی رامات داوید اصابت‌های قطعی رخ داد. نکته بسیار جالب اینجاست که نه شاهد شلیک‌های گنبد آهنین بودیم نه سایر پدافند های آمریکایی در منطقه فعال نشدند. هرچند که برخی رسانه ها مدعی هستند آمریکا با شلیک‌های تاد تلاش کرد جلوی موشک ها را بگیرد اما چون موفق نبود کلا ماجرا تقابل پدافندی را انکار کرد . همانطور که می‌بینید ایران در پاسخ به حمله اسرائیل به بیروت، واکنشی بسیار سریع نشان داد و به وعده خود عمل کرد و به دشمن آسیب رساند. همه می‌دانند که ایران هشدار داده که اگر مورد حمله دشمن قرار گیرد، اینبار نه فقط اسرائیل بلکه زیر...

Republican Dan Sullivan:  Sociopath The corruption, the lies, and public service as a means to acquire a robust wealth portfolio are a well-understood triad of evil.  We get it.  But we are helpless to stop it.  We are the peasants beyond the moat. https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-15874629/dan-sullivan-campaign-funds-lavish-spending-alaska.html Powerbroker:  noun   A person who is important by virtue of the people or votes they control Definition by Tammy: An unscrupulous person who is lacking virtue, but important because of the people or the votes which they control. It seems an abuse of power to request ordinary citizens in Alaska for "gas money" when the price per gallon in the state is $4.17.   Ten percent of Alaskans live below the poverty line.  The Kulsivak Census area has the highest rate of poverty at 31-36% of the general population.  The Nome area is 21-22%. Republican Dan Sullivan is a sociopath.  These indiv...

Damage to Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait Satellite images show damage following Iran's strike on Ali Al Salem Air Base.  The facilities are linked to the operation of America's drones.  These missile and drone attacks were in response to U.S. attacks on Qeshm Island and the Sirik region.   
EU Migration Plan Tightens the Screws with "Solidarity" * I support orderly, carefully considered, incremental and metric-oriented migration. What does this specific individual have to offer a nation regarding work ethic, skill set, and mutual benefit? And what is their willingness to sacrifice in no different manner than my own grandparents sacrificed for the privilege of being native born Americans?  This is never about racism. It is about policies which protect and safeguard the hopes and dreams of the hosting nation's generational-native-born. Migration which impoverishes citizens and reduces them to second-class foreigners in their own streets remains disastrous policy. https://www.infomigrants.net/en/post/68679/hungary-reiterates-refusal-to-take-part-in-eu-migration-solidarity-plan There are the the usual tools, "Who... what... when... where... why now... and who benefits".  But when reading a narrative, an accurate report out, or seeking to skip my own sm...
Europe: Disastrous Consequences when Governments Fetishize Migrants We all remember Germany during the summer of 2015.  The Germans were the poster child for generosity.  And as we say in Texas, "God bless 'em." Prime Minister Angela Merkel went about hugging asylum seekers and assuring Germans that "we can manage this....".  She practically sounded like Mother Theresa.  But she was not introducing a small footprint where dying lepers could be bathed and receive food and last rites. She was accepting of a calamity.  Because for hosting nations to survive, the acceptance of migrants must be orderly, and slowly paced; in small increments and with the ability for the taxpayers to temporarily provide relief for those arriving.  Citizens must not be displaced from their neighborhoods to accommodate migrants, housing shortages must not ensue, and schools and medical resources must not be overwhelmed.  Entrance must also be granted for those best able to cont...

News You Might Have Missed " The Dutch Ministry of Defense announced that it wants to phase out the use of Palantir equipment within the next two years. Although the American company Palantir is used only in what the Dutch Ministry of Defense describes as "exceptional cases," the State Secretary has still informed parliament members that they want to replace it "as quickly as possible." A Dutch official stated that a "complete replacement" for the software of this data-collection giant, which is directly supported by the CIA (and of course Mossad), must be put in place within two years.   I recall that one of the areas where the Dutch Ministry of Defense had used Palantir's artificial intelligence was in NATO's communications sector to facilitate faster communication between weapons platforms from member countries.   Additionally, American data analysis technology has been employed by the Netherlands' Special Operations Command (NLD SOCO...
