    Isn’t it amazing that only Iran is going to suffer damage to its wells due to (supposedly) not being able to ship oil through the strait. All those other wells in all the other countries that are (actually) unable to ship anything out through hormuz are all perfectly fine. Magic!

    Alastair Crooke : US War Losses Caused by US Ignorance” Judge Napolitano – Judging Freedom•66K

    Can’t tell life from death, bombing from not bombing. What “Ignorance”, sir? You promised me Iran would be installing our new Muslim President by now, after every ship was sunk. Trump nuked Tehran, and still landed a million soldiers, we’ve been there for 10 years, and are all dead.

    I’m sorry: I get exhausted. There are no many lies they’ve promised I can’t even remember them all, and another new one daily. But don’t you see how by landing no men and winning in 30 days, with essentially no military action for three weeks, that’s a “Forever War” we’re bogged down in? While “there is no reason” for it at all, it “makes no sense” “I can’t understand” except that the U.S. is getting rich?

    What’s Crookes’ argument: we fought a nuclear nation of 90M people and took 5k losses and that’s way too many? Do better next time?

    I don’t want to sound triumphal here. That’s not my point; this is very serious business. But I have to point out and quote them all as literal what the heck??? These are probably greater odds with fewer proportional losses than the “300” at Thermopylae. I guess if a SINGLE soldier dies, then it’s too dangerous then. Private Pyle fell off the back of the Deuce during training and now we have to disband the military. Too dangerous! We just have to let the Zetas and Tren dAugua get nuclear weapons. Only fair or someone might get hurt.

    60k men are killed each year from poverty and opioid deaths alone, probably 10x that for all causes “deaths of despair”, but losing 5k this year to save 600k EVERY year with an increased U.S. economy is unconscionable deal. …But only if you’re stopping Iran from having atomic bombs they can send to Denmark, Malacca and Diego Garcia. The REST of the time Europe kills millions, it’s a GOOD killing. UK for instance oversees deaths in Africa, with Covid vaccines, runs drug money worldwide, enforced bases in FStan for heroin and human trafficking, runs all the world’s crime money through their offshore, runs rape camps at home…but that’s all GOOD. It’s STOPPING it all that’s bad, you see. Never, never stop more nuclear bombs, he says. Side of the angels. Everyone MUST have at least one, and I have mine out in the shed! Joe my annoying neighbor will never see it coming! That’ll teach him!

    “Chaos, Black Rain, Evacuations: Tuapse [Russian] Oil Facility Struck For Third Time This Month …at least four tanks seen burning…

    When UK and Ukraine stop international oil, it’s the GOOD kind of blowing things up. Go about your business, nevermind over here. Prediction: Not a peep. In fact, UK will probably brag about it, and when they search the dronefield it will all be UK parts.

    Russian and Iranian parts in drones = Evil and bad. British parts in drones = noble and good.

    “The Latest Calls for Jimmy Kimmel’s Firing Are Nonsensical: “This isn’t a free speech issue — it’s a context issue.” The Hollywood Reporter

    Ah, Context! THAT’S when it’s alright to kill people! You might not know this, but I have some AMAZING jokes about the shootings of Pretti and Goode. As a Late Night host it’s only funny and fair to joke about murdering AOC and Pelosi – adding their home addresses, and lament that Kavanaugh was the wrong target when you can “Deport” Sotomayor. No? Not really that funny you say?

    Surely if Kimmel’s joke are funny, then joking about Trump bombing Iran is exactly 165 times funnier, right? It was tested on target audiences, girls 11-17.

    Gen. Keane: This seems PRETTY OBVIOUS…” Fox Business•469K•23h ago

    Or not so obvious, since everyone is reporting every POSSIBLE contradictory outcome, but mostly the extreme ones that are the LEAST happening.

    Also no one panicked, it is not happening, there is no chaos, it did not change everything, and these are not local housewives.

    “The IMF Just Admitted that Dollar Dominance Is Ending
    And Hank Paulson sez. That’s because the IMF and Paulson attacked and are trying to sink us. Look at the numbers. Slow steady rotation into other assets, which Powell said he was in favor of. Might be decades.

    “Iran War Backfires: Gulf Elites Flee, Dump Treasuries, and Blow Up the Petrodollar  SA”

    As you can tell by no change in dollar useage, no problems in Treasuries, USDX at .99 and gold and BTC sharply DOWN.

    That is, by every objective measure, everything in that headline is FALSE. If so then ALSO the Iran war did not backfire, since nothing happened. “We Make S—t Up” No one will discredit the liars, so why not?

    “Squeeze is on as Bessent simultaneously declares US seeks to inflict permanent damage to Iran’s oil infrastructure.”

    No. If we WANTED to do that, we would just do it because Iran is down to 9mm sidearms. We would level Kharg and approve when Israel hits Pars. We are doing the #Opposite. We are asking them by every means to negotiate BEFORE their wells (not infrastructure) is harmed. We very, very, very, very specifically did the opposite because Iran will need revenue to be normal after. But Bombing = Not Bombing to everyone now.

    We should try that at your house: on odd or even days I will either bomb or not bomb your “Infrastructure”; your electic, gas lines, driveway, and we’ll see if you can tell which days are which. I expect you can. Because “Not Bombing Kharg” kind of stands out.

    “The same people who call for Trump’s murder daily are now saying the event was “staged”…

    Worse, it’s both staged if that is poopy-pants, but ALSO disappointed he didn’t shoot him.
    Because…as…Trump’s idea, that would have been…??? Nevermind there is no logic, no actual construction of a “Theater” narrative, no chasing of facts, no assembly of timelines and data. Whatever I say this minute that I want to be true…

    So it’s a real thing everybody wanted, that’s completely true,
    AND nobody is calling for assassination that’s ridiculous
    AND you’re overreacting because Kimmel x100 people DID call for it, this very week
    AND it’s totally NOT a thing, because nobody wanted it and Trump made it up,
    All at the same time.
    AND He made it up using a real Democrat with real manifestos, real CNN/NPR talking points, and remains alive to be questioned at length. That’s how we can be sure it’s fake.

    These people. Are. Insane.

    I think it was all the “No Kings” rallies that popped up because Charles is here that was distracting them. What’s that? It was a “Pro Kings” Rally instead?

    Also Charles looked really relaxed n’ stuff. I’m not much for tea leaves, but seemed like they’re on the same team. What does that mean for Starmer, MI6 and the Derp State? As some have said, the monarchy is mostly a captured pawn for 400 years by bankers? Not entirely, but more than we thought.

    “IRAN IS COLLAPSING, the regime has informed President Trump”

    Did they though? I mean, this is Trump talking. Also nothing happened, so…

    (I suspect this is true. And the deal is Trump has changed PHYSICAL reality, shut off the lights and is shaking them by the next after they threw everything they had to no effect. –that is, change of behavior of Gulf States, world, etc– So they – and Fox News, MI6 – but I repeat myself – all writers are looking at their belly buttons talking about their “Feelz” and how “Mean” it is. Trump is talking about how their won’t be a country after they damage the well May 5 and IDGAF which you choose. (Perhaps 22 days,)

    As I’ve been saying, one is a SYMBOLIC reality, online. Mental space, completely unreal at this point. The other is: YOU HAVE NO FOOD AND WATER. PICK which reality you care more about. None of the writers can seem to grasp the concept of being hungry and out of bullets. Iran can’t either, no one has ‘called their bluff’ for 50 years and said, ‘give us your best shot. The whole world is larger than you are.” So they continue to spin, saying, “But I said the magic wordy-words that make you give me things! Why isn’t it working???” Because: REALITY. We’ve got millions more bombs and aircraft, but we already ran out of targets in 19 days.

    As you can see, the problem is NOTHING can break a reality-denial bubble. NOTHING. And we have this problem throughout PMC America and especially Congress, etc.)

    “You know who the bad guys are, because they’re the ones who want censorship of free speech.”

    This is by definition. Why? A king or the worst dictator will tell you “Sit down, shut up and work.” Okay, that’s honest enough. The MODERN types are 1,000x worse: they say “I don’t even WANT your behavior, that’s far too easy. Like Winston and the rats, I want your MIND, I want your SOUL. I want to torture you and have you LOVE me, not to obey, but to be ERASED, and THINK, to BECOME me.” Narcissistic EGO. Even that will not be enough, because the victim will eventually vary – however slightly – and invoke the joy of being able to attack and kill and oppress again.

    That’s the impulse against Free Speech. That you can’t think, discuss, come to your own conclusions (even agreement), which is only tangentially attached to obedience. They want you to cease to exist as souls and living beings.

    “A former senior advisor to Anthony Fauci has been INDICTED for his role in the COVID-19 coverup”

    About F-ing time. And the “remove subpoenas” apparently are from air-dropping that legacy prosecutor in on Brennan, and he wanted to re-strategize the case. Could be the previous prosecutor was spiking it with lousy plan, or could be they just weren’t good enough. From what I understand, the Brennan delay is good though.

    “I personally think we should resolve the leadership question in Iran by bombing the rest of the genocidal regime’s leadership into oblivion;”

    Of course you do. Hey here’s a rifle and a parachute, you land 0600 tomorrow. Still feel the same, tough guy? Nope. Because that’s “Work”, not “Shooting your mouth off.”

    ““I, as a soldier, am fighting in the realm of negotiations,” he smirked”
    Smirked? You’re fired twice then. He SAID.

    This goes with Kimmel and Kirk, etc. “Free Speech” they say, not believing in the Constitution at all, it’s just a magic wand they wave to make YOU jump. But if there is a fire somewhere, is it okay for Kimmel to dump a truck of gas on it? Because that’s what he’s doing. How about just 5 gallons. What would the police and fire department say if there was a smolder somewhere and you popped up with a 5 gallon can? Okay then, what if it’s just one cup? Is that okay to dump on an an accelerant to the blaze? That’s what this reporter is doing: “Hey, let’s go bomb everyone” he says, encouraging violence he has no risk or participation in. Ok, I’m strapping the gas tank to you and you can go in first.

    “the Trump administration must beware of taqiyya, the Islamic principle of lying to political opponents”

    Newsflash: that’s not just Islam, buddy. There’s no negotiation in NY or anywhere in the West won’t do the same thing. Look at Altman.

    “• Carney Claims All Nations Tell Him They Regret Making Deals with Trump (CTH)

    Of course. They were all f—king us before and now they’re not. Of course they don’t like that. Even if it were good (it is) these are enormous systems that are costly to re-position and re-work. No one wants to pay transition costs, so nations mostly choke out in our positions, are cowards and refuse to change anything. We were also screwing them by printing empty dollars and making them take them for real goods. Both need to change, and no one likes it.

    Carney as top Globalist Manager, of course wants the Globalist Empire to continue. We want it to stop before we finish dying. Carney WANTS Canada to die: look at his every action.

    “Did you hear the conspiracy theory about President Donald Trump staging his own attempted assassination? It’s in the news.”

    I don’t see why not, so okay, pitch me: how? Oh you have no coherent theories at all? Yeahhhhhh, about that…

    “blamed President Trump for “poisoning the rhetoric” in America”

    Trump is shooting HIMSELF. Again!

    “. many seem unsure whether we represent something beyond the totality of our wealth or power. We were much more than that”

    This is the Spiritual, or if you like, the Narrative aspect. That we are a people, have a mission, the mission is good and right. Only “Principles” can bring us back because all other Humanism decays into Utilitarian POWER. “Each man does what is good in his own eyes”, “This be the Whole of the Law: Do what thou Wilt.” Going back, this is also why they killed Charle Kirk. Same as Bibi killed all Palestinian moderates but invented Hamas and pays them $300M/mo. So is having only extremists and war the side of the angels, or that of the Morningstar? Americans will need to embrace self-control and order. Internally. It appears Zoomers are, esp men.

    ““America’s 15 minutes in the sun are over.”

    • Trump Is Putting Americans into Digital Prison (Paul Craig Roberts)

    Not really: where are you going? China? UAE? Africa? Germany? The U.S. can’t end Empire since up to now it wasn’t our empire, it was just us being ruled by Britain like Wormtongue. A U.S. Empire of U.S. character would be remarkably different, although we are so morally decayed now that remains to be seen. However, all Americans are constantly, universally against it, which is why they have to have #OppositeLand Media and rig every election by millions: because they can’t MAKE normal Americans want this madness. Not after 100 years, not after killing millions of us with despair. The won’t crack and it drives them crazy.

    Anyway, a much MORE likely outcome is, the GLOBALISTS are all killed instead, locked up in maximum-security Europe where they kill each other like “Escape from NY”. Then the REST of us are merely competitors who are normal and go to Mars. There is no war, and no “empire” at all, so to speak. We all do “Work”. That is way, way, way more likely at this point.

    “Trump’s plan leaves Americans completely unprotected against government just as the American colonists were unprotected against the British government”

    Meh. They’re not all that. The LIES is what made it all work before. Media had everyone believing our Soviet was the “Richest, strongest” nation, blah blah, when we clearly weren’t. Now that Truth is being force-fed like a peking duck, the people are resisting everything because they know it exists and who the enemy is. Good. Like all Boomers he thinks if the Government says something, it happens. No. They have all kinds of plans, none of which ever worked. All Americans or the world has to say is, “No, GFY. MAKE ME.” That’s it. And they will. And we will. Then they will lose.

    “The US Constitution has been destroyed piece by piece for a long time.”

    Yes, but the Constitution is an IDEA, which is un-killable. The hardships we have are demonstrating WHY we have it, it’s vital to human survival. I watched everyone take it for granted all my life because “It was hard”. Ah, well, don’t let me make you have to do any “work” to “Save your life” or nothin’ then, Mr. Patriot Act. Fine. But now when people see there is no alternative and no easy way out, there’s nothing left but to die fighting for it. So it can’t BE erased. It’s being slowly re-enacted as we speak. Like 25 states are Constitutional Carry now? That’s a slow crawl back. We are ‘ending’ gerrymandering. That’s a long crawl back.

    “• House Judiciary Expands Probe Into Biden Admin Spying On GOP Congressmen (JTN)

    That’s why the FBI exists. Since 1920. Patriot Act. Screamed at the time, this exact thing would happen. They told me to shut up and de-friended me. Now you see how my yelling “Fire” in a theater that was “on fire” was me trying to save their lives.

    Zelensky + “25,000 Ground Robots In Battlefield Planned By Ukraine For Frontline Logistics

    This is what they, Europe, was really trying to cause. …If the American refused to commit suicide on command as we have refused to do. So now it is entire European industrial base like NoKo vs Russia’s relatively smaller, younger base. It’s quite likely Europe would win. Except there is no energy. America is also not going to give it to them, esp for this.

    But you see the outlook of the Dr. Evil plans. Ze only exists to keep the war going, and have those Ukrainians in Germany to ship back home. Russia knows.

    “It’s made to drive itself from day one. Under $30K. Can’t be ignored.”

    I expect us all to die then. By several means, the main one being things like: “You’re broke bc you lost your job and can’t afford it” and “There is a hurricane/light snow and it won’t drive you to safety.” So if there’s a wildfire that takes out the power and you’re feeling crispy, go ahead.
    These work only in cities. And only where cities are working.

    “”Smartphones will not have Apps in the future – You will get everything through AI.”
    O God. We’re definitely going to die then.

    “The most detailed image of human cell”

    Except it’s completely made up. Cells don’t look like this, this is an informational, metaphorical construction. Now it MAY be correct, in a sense, if the mental model that created it is correct. But this is different from putting chemical film in a camera. This is a digital photo, taken out, edited, cropped, improved, made to motion. This is the same as the stars, or Mars. There is no “Color” in a digital camera. They just CHOOSE a CYM shade to correspond to that digit. Mars could be blue, or Violet, although I’m not saying it is. I’m just making the point here. Like the “Horseshoe Nebula” and other amazing pics, they add in Xrays, UV, whatever they feel like if it makes the photo cooler. You can’t actually see them, so it literally “Doesn’t look like that”. It may BE like that – or it may definitively NOT – but your eyes would not see what they’re pretending they would.

    Same with the cell. It may “Actually” be biophotons glowing like Kirilian photography and their dead watchmaker representation of tiny parts is off-base.

    You have to understand this “Picture of a cell” is what it is. It’s a thing to fit in your BRAIN, not reality at all.

    “only Iran is going to suffer damage to its wells”

    Great question but I’ve never heard anyone say that. You made it up just now.

    Saudi, for example, has pipelines to the Red Sea and just like all other Iranian allies, the Houthis are abandoning them and not shutting the Red Sea. Kuwait, Iran may be able to reduce flows critically and leak the remainder out of West-facing pipelines. No doubt some of their wells ARE damaged, and it’s just too late, so why bother?

    Why don’t you do a research project on this important question and get back to us?

    • Iran Already Scrambling for Oil Storage After Two Weeks of US Blockade (ZH)

    There’s something I’ve been finding curious.

    “Iran scrambling for oil storage.” (And all the many problems that come downstream from shutting down oil wells).

    I have seen this pointed out over and over again on the internet, and how therefore there is some kind of “hard” deadline fast approaching.

    But not once have I seen this same point applied to other Persian Gulf producers: Iraq, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, and even Saudi Arabia.

    I know that some of these countries do have pipelines that allow SOME of their oil to bypass the Strait of Hormuz. But my understanding is that the MAJORITY of their oil did ship through the Strait.

    Why does the filled-storage issue seem only to apply to Iran, according to the internet? Aren’t all Persian Gulf producers in the same blockaded boat? What am I missing?

    The heavily promoted and incessantly repeated notion that Iran’s oil field infrastructure, systems and the wells themselves are about to self-destruct because they have nowhere left to store the stuff is just utter and complete BULLSHIT.

    The idiot assholes who are spewing such alarming lies have their usual criminal motives for telling those absurd lies, and the idiot assholes who believe such a crock of shit no doubt have their own sad motives for believing them, but neither of those things changes the fact that it’s FALSE.

    Surplus can be stored in open ponds, surrounded by earthen berms. The technology for doing precisely that is a fully mature technology that has been used many times in practically every place in the world where oil is pumped. There are downsides, of course, and financial losses, of course, but nothing prohibitive and the costs are recaptured in the same way that ALL costs are recaptured: by raising the price of the oil.

    Do your homework, Illargi. I am dismayed by the fact that you’re helping to spread the lie. I would expect better of you….. but of course you have your motives as well, as do we all…… but no one of is actually well served by false information that is so easily refuted.

    Do you remember “the smell of Bengay”

    The generic names of Bengay ointment are menthol, methyl salicylate, camphor, and triethanolamine salicylate, depending on the specific product formulation.
    Bengay is a topical analgesic used to relieve minor muscle and joint pain from arthritis, backaches, sprains, strains, and bruises
    Its pain-relieving effect comes from counterirritants, which create a cooling or warming sensation on the skin to distract from deeper pain.

    It should be obvious (but of course it isn’t) to any interested party with two brain cells to rub together, that Iran will be keeping both its oil AND it’s Plutonium (valued at over $2 Billion).

    The only ones getting nervous about deadlines is Trump and Company, who just indirectly told the world that if they can’t steal the oil and the plutonium within the next couple of weeks then Trump and Company will get fired and some new bastards will be brought in to take another crack at world domination.

    the earliest compounds of Bengay contained oil of wintergreen and the aroma is different today

    the band of gray between troves of information is at the narrowest in the sixty five years i have been paying attention.

    “but no one of is actually well served by false information that is so easily refuted” – BULLSHIT!

    the entire edifice of western culture is built on false information.

    The Enlightenment occured during the Inquisition. Where have you ever had that pointed out as an anomaly? Every bit of information that did not fit the agenda was labled as false, myth or fairy tale. Today in the twenty first century find someone critical of the enlightenment in the west.
    Western propaganda became earnest in 1054, and was taught under penalty of excommunication.
    Just like the dichotomy of Left / Right today.

    Might Makes Right. True or false?
    How is Pizzaro portryed in western historical perspective?
    Creative Destruction?

    One does have to admit that Trump has been the PERFECT man for the job that he’s doing.

    I’ll leave it do y’all to describe in greater detail what that job is, but hey, somebody had to bring down the slavering ZioAmerican beast before no possession was left unstolen, and every last child in the world was raped while the rest of us were slaughtered or sold into slavery.

    What better chump than Trump? Not only does he epitomize all that is wrong with the world, but giving him the means to realize his dreams is the very thing that is finally bringing it all down at last.

    @charles
    I don’t understand what you mean by the observation, “Too bad you had to Aspnaz them”. How do I Aspnaz something? (just in case I need or want to Aspnaz something else in the future.)

    “but no one of is actually well served by false information that is so easily refuted” – BULLSHIT!

    In the statement that,”… no one is actually well served…” the keyword is well.

    Interests can be served by falsehoods, copiously so (just look at the news or the average college course) but that is a far cry from being well served. To be well served one must experience actual benefit, not mere acquisition of material gain in the form of wealth, power or prestige.

    Trump, for example (why waste time looking for some other example when the perfect example is already on the table?) has “served” himself to the maximum holding capacity of his metastatic ego, but I don’t see any true benefit at all. All he got out of it was a rich crime family, a world that hates his guts, and a long stretch in Hell. I don’t call that “well” served. I call it reaping what is sown.

    Not bullshit. Sooth.

    “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” (the most common modern version)

    “If it works, leave it alone.”

    It’s a common proverb meaning that when something is functioning adequately, you shouldn’t interfere with it or try to improve it unnecessarily.

    Do the math
    Value of enriched uranium = $2 Billion
    Estimated Cost of war against Iran = $1 Billion per day, $ 25 Billion.

    https://tass.com/world/2124403

    According to its information, Grossi noted that this is a complex operation requiring political approval, but he did not reveal any further details.

    “What’s going to be important is that that material leaves Iran,” the IAEA chief said, adding that the material could be mixed with other materials to reduce its enrichment level.

    Earlier, in an interview with TASS, Iranian political scientist and international relations expert Ruhollah Modabber emphasized that if Iran decides to transfer enriched uranium to Russia, it will be able to reach a more favorable and sustainable peace agreement with the US.

    Trump:

    I know it might shock the hell some people right out of their skins/minds, but sometimes Trump simply does what is best for the American people!
    Shocking isn’t it!
    Perish the thought!

    Judging by the volume of outrage he creates every day, Trump is doing what is best for American people, more than his enemies would like!

    So long as he continues to break the existing rules based order, then he is up to “some” good.
    Israel is an example, helping while bombing them!
    No other US president would have ever done that!
    Helping Globalists, while handling them more rope!

    Trump pissing the right (left/Globalists) people off, means he is doing his job.
    I am not sure how else to describe what Trump is doing.

    Conservatives:

    The Left/Globalists have spent a long time trying to provoke Conservatives Americans to revert to violence in protest, so they could use government police forces to violently suppress them!

    Instead of using violence like the left do, Conservatives Americans stayed inbounds and use the republics rules to produce Trump!

    As we see daily, the left continues to use violence and corruption, as their preferred method to change the republic, like the spoiled (criminal) brats they are!

    The left are solely responsible for producing Trump!
    If they hadn’t behaved badly, the way they did, there would have been no need for a Trump!

    Biases:

    People like having their existing biases re-confirmed by the MSM.
    It is comforting.

    However, reality is constantly changing.
    The past sows future conquences.

    The pendulum often swings too far in one direction.
    But swing back, it surely does, to correct previous excesses.

    So today, past biases are being corrected, which upsets people used to their past comfortable illusions.
    They don’t like having to change their current biases.
    If they didn’t see the changes coming, It can be very stressful.

    For those who saw change coming, it provides comfort and vindication.

    Wordpress ate my post, so I re-post:

    So the next steps I expect:

    1. The Zionists are hell-bent on destroying Iran. Trump is beholden to them. The war will resume and escalate from here. That’s why Trump asked for the briefing on the nuclear codes.

    2. The Iranians are adopting a strategy of mutually assured destruction. You destroy us, and we destroy all of the oil infrastructure in the Middle East, which destroys the global economy. Neither side is going to blink, and this is what is going to happen.

    3. Iran and the Gulf states will all be destroyed. Israel will be happy.

    4. The destruction of the oil infrastructure will weaken China in the short term. Trump and the neocons will be happy.

    5. The US (along with its Venezuelan colony) and Russia become the major oil producing states. The US makes a fortune selling oil and gas to the UK and EU, who have no other option because they are both blinded by their hatred for Russia.

    6. The global economy collapses into depression, but US has greater control over the global oil supply, and higher prices allow further shale development. On a relative basis, the US comes out ahead, or so the thinking goes.

    7. China finally plays its ace: Collapse the paper gold markets and send the gold:oil ratio over 1000:1. China might not control oil, but it does control gold.

    8. Either we find a new equilibruim or we escalate further into total war.

    @Boogaloo: Sorry WordPress ate you thoughts; glad you tried again.
    This strait-war is a valve on global economy.
    Who is to control the valve and the power it sequesters?
    Not fully decided yet, as the severe consequences that induce desperation are not yet in place.

    Zionist control of USA: The Gerry Ford, which was in the Red Sea, a position to shield “Israel” from Houthi missiles, is leaving the theater. Is this a signal? It has enough other reasons to leave, after all…
    Is it a false-signal?
    Is there any limit to Israeli control of the DC apparatus & Trump?
    Will we ever see such a limit?
