    “Talking about doing oneself in, Iran takes the cake. Reminds me of Putin. Putin kept Russia sitting on its passive butt for eight years self-deceiving himself with his “Minsk Agreement,” while Washington built and equipped a large Ukrainian army.”

    Or just maybe he was also building up his arsenal?

    Wes yeah I know common sense has nothing to do intelligence, or does it? It would seem the more letters after the name the harder it is to find any reasonable amount of it. Most seem to believe that perpetual growth in a finite space is a reasonable assumption. Common sense is incorrectly named, it ain’t so common. Perhaps uncommonly sensible would be better.

    His only job for the Dipshit State was getting the US at war with Iran.

    He DOES NOT CARE about the economy or America First.

    Five hundred years of blood thirsty savagery, rape, pillage and amorality have conditioned the western Europeans and their bastard children to believe they are invincible.

    a culture and a people that continously lies to themself has no option but to place liars in places of authority

    an ongoing genocide in view of the entire world and we are worried about the price of gasoline

    BLOOD THIRSTY ABERRANT ANIMALS

    Want to talk about a lying SOB? say the name Bessant. Will someone please tell the deranged liar a bird in the hand is worth a flock in the bush.

    no outside force destroyed the family in the United States, we worked overtime and when that was not sufficient demanded two payroll families and placed our children in the hands of the least competent low wage workers we could find. Then we trusted their education to self serving pension protecting fools. Those who can do, those who can’t teach.

    Yeah, yeah , yeah, IT’S THEIR FAULT

    USSA “medical” training

    What a joke

    Paint by numbers “doctors”

    What a sick country

    Memorized by rote, no analytical problem solving skill whatsoever.

    The whole mess will be done with an AI in the not to distant future, no need for “doctors”

    “We must teach students not just to memorize protocols, but to question them. Not just to see symptoms, but to see people. Not just to apply science, but to practice wisdom.

    The health of our patients and the future of the profession depend on doctors who treat humans, not checklists.”

    Extending the idea of leveling all the nations down to some tolerable point – like take Saudi for example, they’re middle large and influential, how can they pitch behind an idea of having states all around them that will cause trouble? No: they would have to agitate and make MORE trouble, to reduce and keep them occupied in that case, which is bad for everyone.

    Luongo adds another detail: we’re reducing the Middle East AS nations, how about reducing the factions IN the nations? We know the only possible answer is to reduce and remove the warhawks in Israel. But what about similar warhawks in Iran? You planning on leaving them intact with a bomb? So then THEY become the new Israel, behaving the same way, and the same problem goes on and on. Perfect. The villains win then in “Three World Wars” where we all just fight. And fight. And fight. To moral, physical, and spiritual exhaustion.

    Right now, BOTH these majors have halved themselves. AND their leaders are all kicked. AND the people would like to unseat them. Right?

    Okay, next thought: so Trump double crossed us, all the idiots, and is going to war on behalf of Israel. Oh really? THEN WHO’S STOPPING THINGS? I said this before about the White Hats: if everything’s lost, everybody’s gone, there are no good guys, then who’s restraining the bad guys right now? SpongeBob? CLEARLY Israel wants us totally in.

    So why aren’t we? Geniuses?

    No. Something is restraining, and because we don’t like the LEVEL of restraining, the line that was chosen for “no farther”, we claim there are no borders or limits at all. If that were true, the entire U.S. Military would be there, and always would have. There’d be the draft Aspnaz says already exists, and a P.R. Blitz to get us there, a million men would be mustering. No, no, and no. None of that is happening, and WASN’T happening even the first 120 days.

    What DID happen? When we did this, Lindsay moved the Budget out of committee and onto the floor. Powell did NOT lower rates and keeps steady choke-out on Europe and K-Pop.

    What’s happened? Really? Nothing. The balance, etc hasn’t changed yet. Same elements, same routes of interaction as last October, all the way back to 1979. This is the balance, the old order, that need to break, the entire Post WWII Mythos, the story “we” tell ourselves. Blah blah blah. TALKING is happening. A light skirmish.

    Speaking of, I think I finally understand Kanye and this Hilter thing. He’s in this, this is his day job, his career, and really deep. What’s he doing seems retarded to me, but is still going over. As usual. But it was said WHAT is he doing? In his mind? A: He’s killing the last sacred god. Hitler. The avatar we project all our evil onto. He’s Pop! Deflating it, ending it. …Which would be a public service, maybe we could talk about him as a real, actual historical figure again, instead of a hysterical one.

    Nation nuking people is Israel” — Ambassador.

    Yes. And of course like JB, get pretty sick of it. Every criterion, maybe if they say so in every paragraph, it can finally get some traction. Because, as also said daily WHICH of these nations is the one bombing every neighbor every day? And which has a safe Jewish population?

    But what changed overnight? Not Bibi. He’s the same now, weeks, years, 30 years ago. So something DID change.

    ““Iran has been fulfilling all of its obligations under the nuclear deal.” — Putin So if you don’t trust Trump, trust Putin. What’s Russia been doing? Why is everyone looking only at the Unites States? Are you stupid? No other nation exists again? Jesus Christ. I don’t want the U.S. to be Empire, they’re nobodies, and I’m going to make that happen by giving all my attention to them, and only react to their lead.

    “• Ayatollah Tells Trump “We Will Never Surrender” In Televised Speech (ZH)

    So Russia “Regime change” Iran like he did Syria, and accepts the Ayatollah like he did Assad? Okay, we know why: to change things for real. To take out the crazies and put in moderates, dealmakers that create prosperity. Trump did the tour to baseline the business deals 100 days ago. He has a list of what everybody wants and needs.

    “• Only 16% Of Americans, 19% Of Trump Voters Want US To Join War On Iran (ZH)

    Same WWII holocaust mythos of the Olds, that Kanye is breaking in the Youngs. These things are like “The Master Narrative”. And like other Narratives, constructed basically out of thin air to get you to buy soap.

    “Israel’s war with Iran is “premised on the fact that the US will join at some point”

    If we hold, they lose.

    “He also compared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Adolf Hitler.”

    Yes, but tbf, everybody is Hitler now. Even Kanye. That’s the point. O death, where is thy sting.

    “• Is the Trump Project Unravelling? (Alastair Crooke)

    1) We have an open, serious discussion. In the party and out. 2) Trump goes, “Golly gee, I really thought I could get this, I did everything I could, but you know how politics are. …Sorry!” But they have to live it out, play it out, act it out, draw it out, for REAL.

    “Tiesler said that to manage the shortage, the BBK plans to convert cellars, underground garages, and metro stations into a system of bomb shelters”

    Are you high? Not that this shouldn’t be done: it should. But do you have any idea the level, size, depth, and complication of shelters to protect anything? This isn’t 1939 folks. Some corregated tin in the verge isn’t going to save you.
    And only NOW, 30 years after they dismantled them against every advice. Same as the electric and data grids, entirely, completely exposed, while billions are spent that could have hardened them. Yeah, um, YOU’RE TRYING TO KILL EVERYONE. We noticed.
    • Brussels Makes EU ‘As Uncompetitive As Possible’ – Putin Envoy (RT)

NYT (?) article “But muh bad Trump, raided and removed a whole packing plant of migrants!!!” …And? “And didn’t arrest the CEO’s” …You’re singing my tune, we should arrest them too (but probably have hiring agent/deniability) And? …And the whole lobby is full of Americans applying for those jobs. At higher wages. Who’s gonna pick dat cotton? A: We Are. That’s called “Work”. When working pressure sets wages, that’s called “Capitalism.” We know you’re violently against it. Always the party of slavery.

    That Americans were applying for and receiving those jobs was a horror and catastrophe for the NYT. Unthinkable to “Work”. White People working? No so long as we’re on the job!

    “Israel vows to hold Iran’s leader accountable for “war crimes” after Iranian missile slams into hospital

    Mehr News Agency –
    Israel admits security center targeted near Soroka hospital. Al Mayadeen, citing an Israeli emergency body, reported that a critical biological research center located near the Soroka hospital was targeted by Iran. The center is considered as one of the most critical security centers in occupied Palestine because the Tel Aviv regime decided to locate it near a hospital to use the hospital as a cover. The Israeli media is trying to convey that the hospital was the target of the Iranian retaliatory strikes.

    Israeli Enemy Hits Arak Nuclear Reactor as It Proceeds Aggression on Iran
    Israeli fighter jets struck on Thursday a number of sites across Iran, including the Arak heavy water nuclear reactor, as it went ahead with the aggression on the Islamic Republic.

    The partially built reactor was originally called Arak and is now named Khondab.

    Iranian media reported air defenses were activated in the area of the Khondab nuclear facility and two projectiles hit an area close to it.

    Officials told Iranian state TV that evacuations were made before the strikes and no risk of radiation or casualties was detected. There was no mention of any damage.

    @aspnaz

    Internet interviewees are stating that the Iran war could end the Trump presidency. Absolute bollocks, it will end the MAGA facade – if that ever existed – then he will continue as what he really is, the AIPAC POTUS. Trump is working for AIPAC, he will continue after the mid terms, he will be able to get whatever votes he needs from both houses. Trump doesn’t care about the mid terms, not an issue when you are working for AIPAC.

    Well for once you at least came close to nailing it, with the exception being that although AIPAC are Trump’s main “handlers” they are by no means the only ones that he’s working for. Trump, AIPAC and the United States Empire “Deep State” are not the top of the dung pile. They all work for the owners, and not all of those owners are “Jewish” or even bother with such facades, front groups or other silly labels. Jewish schmooish as the old saying goes. It’s not about what they CALL themselves. It’s about what they DO, and who they work for (and why).

    Furthermore, the only reason that these owners remain invisible to us mere cattle is that they invest an almost incomprehensible amount of time, money and effort in removing from public knowledge any and all traces of their existence. The way they do this is neither fancy nor magical. They do it the old fashioned way, by hiring others to do all the work (which includes stealing the money to pay for it all and simply murdering anyone and everyone who poses any real threat to their little club.

    Most of the people who work for them haven’t got the slightest idea that they actually are working for them. FURTHER furthermore it isn’t necessary to even know who “they” are. It is only necessary to recognize, fully understand, and able to navigate the game they are playing.

    Do so is not easy, but it IS getting easier due to the increased flow of previously obscured information.

    I’ll even tell you what their game is. It is the acquisition of near total monopoly of the technical information which enables small numbers of people to dominate large numbers of people. That technical information (math, science, physics, biology, economics and PSYCHOLOGY) not only enables dominance, but it also engenders a FALSE sense of superiority that leads to arrogance, disdain and cruelty in the hearts, minds and souls of those who use it. In other words, it turns them into monstrously criminal sociopaths.

    The game goes back many many thousands of years, and the cat & mouse game of finding it and hiding it accounts for all of the “woo woo” mysteriousness and bullshit encountered when searching for its origins. Once again, let me say clearly, there is nothing particularly fancy or “woo woo mysterious” about ANY of it. The mysterious, arcane, occult, religious and pseudo-religious aspect is just all part of the lying, bullshit, censorship, gas-lighting and violence which comprise the sophisticated mechanics of how the game is played.

    All that it takes to break the cycle is the discovery and sharing of truth, so please do continue with that. Nevertheless, and having said that, and fully recognizing the blatantly obvious and acknowledged fact that the label “Jew” has been completely captured by these monsters, do NOT, I beg you, be lulled into the ridiculously false notion that removal of the “Jewish problem” will do anything to achieve removal of the monster problem.

    For THAT (removal of the monster problem) you are going to have to discover your own history, stop buying into bullshit just because it puts food on your table and fancier cars in the garages of your McMansions. To regain the sovereignty of your material life you must first regain sovereignty over your mental and spiritual life, and THAT begins with the actual truth of the real history of planet Earth.

    Update from Mehr News Agency in Tehran –

    Israeli regime lies about Iran’s hitting Soroka hospital

    TEHRAN, Jun. 19 (MNA) – The Israeli regime is lying about the Iranian missile launch on an inteligence and command center belonging to the Israeli army, claiming it hit a hospital on Thursday…started a media capaign claiming that the target of Iran’s missiles was Soroka hospital in Ber Sheva.

    The fact of the matter is that Iran targeted and hit the Israeli military’s command and intelligence center known as IDF C4I in a precision attack which was near the Soroka hospital as it could be seen in the map below…The center was in fact a shelter for thousands of the Israeli soldiers and officers. The emiision of the waves of the explosion at the IDF C4I HQ also affected the hospital. The Israeli health ministry also confirmed after the Iran preceision attack that the medicalcenter was running as normal.

    Later, sources in Israeli regime said that te center that was targeted was a center for biological research which was next to the hospital.

    Iran is going to take Israel apart like a cheap suit with hypersonic missiles.

    Iran has A LOT of them

    Israel and it’s vassel the USSA can’t do swat about it.

    Only a couple of paths left.

    USSA attacks Iran, has their military bases vaporize, Strait of Hormuz closed, world economy collapses.
    Haifi as a functioning port is OVER.

    Mossad infrastructure is being hunted down piece by piece.

    No commercial airports open.

    F-16 Israeli Air Force bases bombed to bits, they have to relocate planes to British Base on Cyprus

    (The Russians should send Hazelnuts to that British base and exterminate it as payback)

    Bibi and his Buttboy cabinet have a price on their heads whether or not it has been officially declared by Iran.

    From a better written article from Tehran Times –

    Soroka Hospital is located between two major Israeli military sites: the IDF’s main intelligence headquarters and a central command facility, both of which are situated in the Gav-Yam Technology Park.

    These installations reportedly serve as critical hubs for Israel’s cyber operations, digital command systems, and military intelligence infrastructure (including IDF C4I and C4ISR systems).

    While the hospital sustained shockwave damage from nearby blasts, it was not directly hit, Iranian reports emphasize…

    However, in recent days, Israeli strikes targeted two civilian hospitals in Iran — one in Tehran and another in Kermanshah — an action they say has drawn little international condemnation.

    BREAKING — Iranian Missiles Strike Israeli Stock Exchange

    Iranian missiles have struck the Israeli stock exchange building in Ramat Gan this morning. The strike follows Israeli-linked cyberattacks that crippled Iran’s banking system and destroyed tens of millions in digital assets.

    ➤ Missile Strike on Ramat Gan
    One of the missiles earlier this morning hit the Israeli stock exchange in Ramat Gan’s Diamond District, causing structural damage and prompting emergency response efforts in the Tel Aviv suburb.

    ➤ Cyberattacks on Iranian Banks
    The hacker group Predatory Sparrow—widely believed to be linked to Israeli intelligence—claimed responsibility for a major breach of Bank Sepah on June 17, wiping internal data and knocking ATMs, online banking, and branch services offline.
    But disruptions didn’t stop there:

    ▪️ Ansar Bank & Kosar Bank: Customers across Iran reported debit card failures and account-access issues—likely secondary effects of the same cyber campaign.

    ▪️ Bank Melli: Iran’s largest bank was also taken offline, with ATM and online services going dark around June 17. It remains unclear if this was part of Predatory Sparrow’s operation, but its outage added to the nationwide financial paralysis.

    Healthcare, pension disbursements, fuel transactions, and everyday spending were heavily disrupted. IRGC Cyber Command imposed tight restrictions on officials’ use of internet-connected devices due to security fears.

    ➤ $90M Crypto Burn
    On June 18, the same group targeted Nobitex, Iran’s largest crypto exchange. Over $90 million in assets were permanently “burned” by sending them to inaccessible wallets. Blockchain analysis confirmed the intent was to damage IRGC-linked funding channels—not for financial gain.

    Professor Ugo Bardi provides context: The End of the Consumer Society and the Militarization of the Economy: For everything that happens, there is a reason for it to happen.
    In the consumer economy, resources are turned into consumer goods by the industry, and then into waste by consumers. In the military economy, the industry turns resources into military equipment, then the enemy takes care of turning it into waste. Apart from a small difference in the role of the agents, the mechanism is the same. https://senecaeffect.substack.com/p/the-end-of-the-consumer-society-and

    Iran has no Rothschild central bank. No IMF loans. The region’s deepest oil reserves. It supplies 87% of China’s crude, controls the Strait of Hormuz through which $1.2 trillion flows annually and trades outside the U.S. dollar. That’s why they want it broken. https://x.com/MoneroMoney/status/1935263976721629467

    Iran has no IMF debt, has easy to pump oil that supplies China, just finished a rail line from Tehran, deep into China as part of the Belt and Road initiative, has not lost its air defenses, but has moved them deeper in to securely protect Iranian airspace from overflights. Israel has reportedly lost 4-5 F-35s, and otherwise uses stand-off missiles from outside Iran’s borders, and various drone attacks. Israel/US can’t sustain this burn rate. Iran can. That is the urgency for the empire of western finance. Will the US risk B-2 bombers over Iran? To what end? By what justification?

    If and when the false flag attack happens, maybe on the Carrier USS Nimitz, Trump can retaliate militarily under the War Powers Act.
    Who might Trump say did it? He has a choice. He will know. What if China & Russia tattle on Israel? FALSE FLAG ~ THE BAIT IS ON ITS WAY
    As missiles light up the skies between Israel and Iran, the USS Nimitz, a 50-year-old relic from the Cold War, is now en route to the Middle East.
    Officially, it’s to ‘maintain stability.’ Unofficially? It’s starting to look a lot like bait.
    This ageing aircraft carrier, lumbering toward a modern missile battlefield, is due for retirement next year. This is its last mission. Its nuclear reactors are becoming unreliable, and its strategic value, in a world of hypersonic weapons and drone swarms, is questionable. https://michaelwalshwriter.com/2025/06/16/false-flag-the-bait-is-on-its-way/

    LBJ really “wanted that son of a bitch at the bottom of the ocean” with no survivors, so he could use nuclear weapons on Egypt.
    There were surviving US Navy witnesses…
    The USS Liberty was repeatedly attacked while in international waters by Israeli air and naval forces on June 8, 1967. The horrific result of this unprovoked attack by the Jewish state was that 34 Americans were murdered, and 174 were wounded. Then there was a complete cover-up of this premeditated mass murder, and for the first time in our history, there wasn’t any retaliation against Israel for committing this act of war. https://earthnewspaper.com/mark-r-elsis/uss-liberty-by-mark-r-elsis/

    Following multiple rounds of Iranian missile barrages that have proven far more effective than many “experts” anticipated, the Israeli Defense Forces are already running low on defensive Arrow interceptor missiles, making Israel all the more desperate for the United States to join the war Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government initiated on Friday the 13th.

    Freudian slip or intentional statement? “We?” Who is “We?” TRUMP: “Unconditional Surrender”

    “We” have total control? Who is “we?”

    Israel is expecting the US to join its ongoing unprecedented attacks on Iran, Israeli media has reported.
    A senior unnamed Israeli official said assessments in Tel Aviv indicate that US President Donald Trump is expected to approve the involvement of American forces in the strikes on Iran, said Israeli public broadcaster KAN.
    “Trump would want to be remembered as someone who took part, not someone who stood by,” he added.
    The official said that “without the US, we can only inflict limited damage on the Fordow nuclear facility.”

    Only the B-2 bomber carries these. There’s a nuclear version, too. What to Know About Bunker-Buster Bombs and Iran’s Fordo Nuclear Facility
    What is the bunker-buster bomb? “Bunker buster” is a broad term used to describe bombs that are designed to penetrate deep below the surface before exploding. In this case, it refers to the latest GBU-57 A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator bomb in the American arsenal. The roughly 30,000 pound (13,600 kilogram) precision-guided bomb is designed to attack deeply buried and hardened bunkers and tunnels, according to the US Air Force.
    It’s believed to be able to penetrate about 200 feet (61 meters) below the surface before exploding, and the bombs can be dropped one after another, effectively drilling deeper and deeper with each successive blast.
    The bomb carries a conventional warhead, but the International Atomic Energy Agency has confirmed that Iran is producing highly enriched uranium at Fordo, raising the possibility that nuclear material could be released into the area if the GBU-57 A/B were used to hit the facility.

    Charles Hugh Smith, How Housing Bubble #2 Bursts – Corporate / private equity / STVR investors are all fair-weather owners of housing.
    Here’s how Housing Bubble #2 bursts: buyers of overvalued, money-losing properties vanish, those who waited too long sink underwater (sales prices are lower than what they paid), marginal investors default, owner-occupants who lose their jobs sell or default, private equity realizes their losses will only increase the longer they hold off selling, and the momentum of sellers far outnumbering buyers cascades. Greed is replaced by fear, and then by the realization it’s too late to exit without losses. This is how bubbles burst. https://charleshughsmith.substack.com/p/how-housing-bubble-2-bursts
