A Few Evening Notes


I was in Oklahoma today - for a day trip.  So here are a few notes from some of the more hardline sites that I view each day. 

I.  


Yemeni Ansarullah Leader Warns of Possible Collapse of Ceasefire in the Region

Houthi:

🔹️ We Will Not Be Neutral Against Any Aggression Against Iran

🔹The current ceasefire is coming to an end, this ceasefire is very fragile, and the possibility of increasing tensions is very high.

🔹 Our position is clear and public, and we are not neutral against the American-Israeli aggression targeting the Islamic Republic of Iran.

🔹 We are facing the Israeli enemy and its American partner; if the enemy returns to war, our path will also be to enter war.

🔹 Even if the ceasefire remains stable, further rounds of conflict are inevitable because this ceasefire is only a pause in an ongoing battle.

II.

The US has decided to stop all its economic aid and security cooperation with Iraq. They have also stopped providing dollars to the Iraqi Central Bank.

Since the US had threatened that Nouri al-Maliki should not be elected for Iraq, a new candidate was selected with the visit of Sardar Qaani to Iraq, and with the support of Nouri al-Maliki, the new candidate, al-Badri, was introduced for the post of prime minister.

The US does not want someone close to Iran to become prime minister, and this process and the result of the election of the prime minister will completely affect the issue of whether Iraq will be a direct target in the event of a new US and Israeli attack or will only be used as a base area.

The US, especially by collecting and distributing Iraq's oil revenues through itself, has made Iraq economically dependent and can easily direct it, and Iraq has not yet been able to get out of this cycle of economic death and is even in a state of severe economic weakness militarily.

In total, Iran carried out 8,695 missile and drone strikes on eight regional countries during the forty-day war.

Charlie Kirk Marcus Aurelius "Meditations" would not exist if he had been assassinated for his thoughts at age thirty-one. I would have never read Alexander Solzhenitsyn's "Gulag Archipelago" if he had been assassinated for his political thoughts at thirty-one years of age. Winston Churchill would have never written "Hinge of Fate" (one of my favorite selections) had he been assassinated at thirty-one years of age. Ernest Hemingway was fifty-three years old when "The Old Man and the Sea" was published. Leon Uris was thirty-four years old when his novel "Exodus" was published. The average age of the delegates at the 1787 Constitutional Convention was forty-two.  Benjamin Franklin was 81 years of age at this time. The famous Persian poet Ferdowsi began writing "Shahnameh" when he was 37 years old and did not complete it until he was about seventy years of age.  This would be a tremendous loss not to have access to his though...

Mohamed Elhassan He is powerful, made up of imperceptible layers.  He was only in his mid-teens when he first heeded the call to political action traveling to the Republic Palace of President Jafar Nimeiri seeking justice for his family. He is a well-respected Sufi.  In June,  he was awarded a Masters Degree in Islamic Studies from Hamad Bin Khalifa University (Qatar).  A recognized leader of the Kwahla tribe - with 16 million members.   Fast forward to 2010 and 2015 when he ran for President of the Sudan.  In 2015, it was my privilege to serve in a minor advisory role.  In recent years, he has given an enviable one hundred interviews with Al Jazeera Mobasha (life).   His name is Mohamed Elhassan.  I merely call him "friend". Mohamed Elhassan is president of the Sudanese Gathering Accord.  He is a man who knows his business, takes care of his business, and more importantly, takes care of his people. Less than a month ago he tra...

State of the Union:  Live Blogging Tammy and Blackfoot will begin live blogging shortly.  Grab your favorite drink and your BINGO cards and get ready to settle in for two hours of our POTUS speaking at SOTU.  We hope to keep this fun! https://opinionbytammy.blogspot.com/2026/02/state-of-union-bingo-cards.html __________________ Here we go, gang! "Gang" in the friendly family way, not in the Tren de Aragua way. President Trump and Mrs. Trump have left the White House and are on their way to the Capitol. I'm sure these past few days have been chock full of leafing through journals and diaries, and holding meetings with the inner circle for messaging strategies. Regardless of how much input his team gives him, we can always rely on our POTUS to not mince words, to lay the facts on the table and give us straight talk. Recently saw Newsom talking about Trump being an actor, and that he's a different person in different situations. Once again, Gavin is projecting his weakne...
