A concerned citizen of the world rambles about this crazy point in space and time.
Joined January 2017
I’m not sure what the bigger issue is. The fact that seizing territory by force is being normalized, or that people who should know better think that this time around will be different.
JD Vance: I think the Russians really want territorial control of the Donetsk. Ukraine privately acknowledges they'll probably lose Donetsk, you know, eventually. That territorial concession is a significant hold-up in negotiations

The continuation of the castigation campaign against Israel by bad actors is ongoing after the bulk of hostilities have ended because the end objective is to try to eventually justify military action, Bosnia/Iraq style, against the Israelis. It’s all about the objectives of

I firmly believe that the Turks having any presence in Gaza by way of troop contributions to the ISF is the most dangerous possible development on the horizon for the stability of the Middle East. If it happens, it will unlock a very difficult timeline.
Translation: Fidan is close to being fired as FM and all countries present at the Miami meeting reiterated their unified objection to Turkish troops in Gaza. Turkish officials went home sad.

There are people wealthier than Elon. That information just isn't publicly accessible.
Elon is now the richest person in human history, surpassing John D. Rockefeller’s historical fortune which was valued at 1.5% of US GDP at peak Elon’s net worth: $749 billion U.S. GDP: $30.6 trillion Elon Musk’s share: 749/30,600 = 2.45%

If Greek and Turkish forces are both a part of the international peacekeeping force there’s not going to be a whole lot of peacekeeping going on
Greece considers sending engineering troops to Gaza peacekeeping force, N12 News reports. Israel encourages Greek role, as both countries aim to block Turkish influence.

Friendly reminder that Steve is hands down the best reporter in Russia, that he's been reporting since the start of the war, and that he commands so much respect that even the authorities let him stay to ask questions like this when anyone else would probably be thrown in prison

One of the Australian leaders of the Gang of 40 anti-Israel Wikipedia editors agitated against calling the Bondi Beach massacre a “terror attack.” The editor, Zero0000, is an admin.
I have tracked Islamist activity on and offline for nearly two decades. As you see below, I covered the presence of Hamas' "armed wing"—i.e. its terrorism apparatus—on Twitter as early as 2012. (No one cared.) I've watched Hamas grow, advance its position, develop into a global

“They only want to use uranium for civilian purposes.” Get a grip.
First Read: Iran attempted to develop a “fourth-generation” nuclear warhead, technology long deemed impossible. Israeli intelligence picked up troubling signs during the war- signals not tied to uranium enrichment, and not to a classic bomb. Something stranger, more ambitious:
