DHS: A Nation Insecure There is an assumption that a thorough field investigation also quietly vetted Bryon Noem prior to Kristi Noem receiving her appointment to head the Department of Homeland Security. A spouse actively participating in a porn cross-dressing fetish site presents unique vulnerabilities and opportunities for blackmail. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15695627/Shocked-Trump-reacts-Kristi-Noems-crossdressing-husband-Daily-Mail-blew-lid-national-security-scandal.html And then we have the convoluted story of Katie Zacharia. Corey Lewandowski has been problematic for years. But then again, perhaps he is a polished and proficient political blackmailer - hence his own ability to bounce back from all personal scandals. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15695253/katie-zacharia-quits-dhs-lewandowski.html But Kristi Noem? She needs to go home and she needs to stay home. How can she present the best interests of our R...
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
Strait of Hormuz Toll Project Yesterday's post: "The Strait of Hormuz will re-open with conditions and a new model of business determined by the IRGC." Today: The news below. Approval of Strait of Hormuz Toll Project in Iran's Parliament Security Committee Member of the National Security Committee reveals approval of the Strait of Hormuz Management Project in the committee. Key aspects of the project: Security arrangements for the strait Safety of maritime navigation Environmental issues Financial arrangements and toll system in Iranian Rials Ban on passage of Americans and the Zionist entity Activation of Iran's sovereign role and the armed forces Cooperation with the sisterly Sultanate of Oman within the legal framework Ban on passage of countries participating in the unilateral siege against Iran Strait of Hormuz..

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
Zeus Moiragetes It is a comfortable feeling - that of believing there is a God of Fate - and what occurs, is that which was always meant to be; a world where man is not the arbiter of his own disputes nor the final word on personal outcomes. In the Christian faith, those who hold to the doctrine of Calvinism can have the dimmest view of life. Or if life treats the individual fairly well, the smugness which accompanies self-righteousness prevails. I am a much more simple creature. I embrace free will and free moral agency. But certain choices can restrict our greater freedoms. These choices, become our prison guards. And our choices regarding Iran are now wearing IRGC uniforms. In Islam, the concept of Al Hutamah (Surah al-Mulk 7). It is the living creature of Allah which draws in its breath, sighs, and speaks. It is chemical reactions... tubes of fire with columns stretching outward... bellows which contract and expand. A...
A Rippling War This analyst is showing signs of weariness - but the synopsis is worth consideration. As you know, the US and Israel began to attack Iran's energy infrastructure, and this process was quite clear because there was nothing to continue. Of course, in the least possible confrontation, Iran will also close the Strait of Hormuz, and if the attacks on US and Israeli infrastructure continue, not only will the infrastructure of Israel and the countries of the region be attacked by Iran and its allies in the axis of resistance, but we will also witness a chain of events all over the world. Every day that America remains in the war, the scandal of its army will sound louder, and the rest of the world will realize America's puppet power and take action. Soon, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and the Suez Canal will also be closed, and attacks will be carried out on the energy infrastructure of the Persian Gulf. At the same time, we are witnessing suspicious explosions in oil refin...
Strikes on Iran's Nuclear-Industrial Complex Today - 27 March. Ardekan's Chemical Conversion Facility Heavy water Facility: Arak/Khondab Yazd facility remains operational and the damage is limited. In Khuzestan, Arak, and Isfahan three civilian industrial facilities have been targeted. Does anyone else see a pattern? It is easy to recognize. Really, it is. (and I ended with a linking verb!) The IRGC states they have targeted a port and effectively attacked six U.S. Navy LCU-class combat landing ships. Three in the brink; the remainder afire. * I am unable to confirm the news. But I will be following the blow back as the Iranian military unleashes with their next decisions coming off the quarterdeck. We chose to enter the battlespace during Ramadan. (Not that I personally give a shit.) But neither will the Iranian's be waving palm branches on Sunday morning. Anticipate bullet format, rolling posts if things heat up quickly....
Handala Hack " The website which targeted Patel's emails was registered that same day." https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15685251/FBI-director-Kash-Patel-HACKED-Iran-private-photos-emails-leak-online.html I followed the nonsense of Handala Hack several months ago. Eventually, placed their information in the rubbish bin. It is asymmetrical warfare... psychological ambush... and a waste of brains cells. But they are good at what they do.
Iran: Predictive Analysis Generally speaking, I release predictive analysis after many months of research and measurement of what I call "emotional pulse". These predictions reach far into the future-scape of the actions of our adversaries. The compressed and escalating operational tempo for activities by the United States against Iran and a concurrent politico-intellectual hardening within the Iranian quarterdeck cause me to place a few thoughts on the page tonight in what is a "streaming consciousness" manner. So take it as such. I am writing my thoughts - and listening to music. smile Very quietly, after the assassination of the Grand Ayatollah and a smallish flurry of additional assassinations, the IRGC began to strengthen and interlock their chain of command by placing directly underneath each senior leader 3-7 additional military members to take their places - should they also receive death's calling card. This is important to take n...
Iranian Wedding Rice: II Below, the translation from the prior post - which has made an appearance on three separate platforms now: Today, more than ever, the US and Israel are discussing a ground attack on Iran. This is after the failure of various US plans to pressure Iran with air strikes and create chaos inside, so they have resorted to a ground attack plan to force Iran to accept a ceasefire. This requires a massive military buildup of forces at the IRGC level. Given the increased US military movements to begin the ground attack process, we can assume that they have created this corridor. We need to see where the US forces are moving in this corridor. If the US has succeeded in creating a secure and stable supply corridor along the Saudi Arabia-Jordan axis and deploys an armored unit at the IRGC level with full support capacity along it, then the most logical operational path for advancing would be to move towards Basra and then try to enter Khuzestan and Ahvaz. This axis is ...
