    💠 @Yemen | Bab-el-Mandeb:
    ⭕ ‼️
    Leave the Zionists for now, set the devil aside…
    For worse than the devil are the Arab rulers!
    They are the sin that has lasted too long, the shame that cannot be washed away,
    They are the recurring pain of the nation, and the cancer that spreads through its veins.

    Oh, woe…
    Jerusalem has been humiliated while they are immersed in their palaces, indulging in their pleasures,
    The blood of Yemen, Syria, Iraq, and Palestine has been shed,
    And they shake hands with the murderer, smiling at the executioner,
    Feasting on the corpses of children, adorning their thrones with the ashes of burned cities.

    Worse than the Zionists? Yes…
    Because the Zionist is an open enemy, while these are a dagger in the flank,
    Because the enemy fights us with his face, and they stab us in the back while wearing the cloak of Arabism and Islam.

    They boast in conferences, and excel in the art of condemnation,
    But they are the first to open the gates of their homelands to invaders,
    And the first to extinguish the flame of resistance when it ignites,
    And the first to betray when the banner of truth rises.

    Oh, woe…
    Shame has become faces broadcast on screens,
    And applauded by the horns of humiliation in the capitals of impotence,
    And flags are raised for them, although they are worth less than a rag to cover their extended disgrace.

    If betrayal had a throne, they would be its kings.
    If treachery had a religion, they would be its imams.
    If shame had a lineage, every coward who sold Jerusalem for a pittance would be related to them.

    So, may God’s curse be upon the Zionists? Yes.
    But a thousand curses upon those who betrayed God and the Messenger, and let down an entire nation,
    And who rest on pillows of shame while their people scream:
    Oh, woe…!!
    The world is experiencing a state of tension similar to that which preceded the First and Second World Wars. Our region lies at the heart of this tension
    ⭕ 🔴 Turkey is setting up air defenses in Syria, while Qatar is participating in a military exercise with Israel. And the Arabs of Turkey and Qatar are asking: Where is Iran regarding Gaza? By God, Iran is diligently trying to find a safe path for its missiles to Israel, from countries filled with traitors and cowards.
    ⭕ Breaking News – The total losses for the American devil due to the downing of MQ-9 drones so far, after the Yemeni defenses shot down the luxurious American drone number 21, amount to 630 million US dollars, according to Fox News.
    [Catching up, this is from 5-6 days ago]
    ⭕ Breaking News – To the hordes of settlers, open the toilet lids to hide.
    ⭕ Breaking News – The Bab al-Mandab channel in Yemen has received information from private sources indicating that a Yemeni missile targeted a warship in the Red Sea and hit its mark with high precision. The sources confirm that the ship is ablaze.
    ⭕ The description of God’s trial of Pharaoh for Prophet Moses and his people is characterized by “the great anguish.” Yet, He provided relief for them with just a “staff”…

    Trust in God and do not worry about how relief will come…
    ⭕ “The first promise has passed,
    And today is the promise of the Hereafter.
    Take lessons from what has gone by,
    O people with mocking faces.”

    “The record has closed,
    O slaves of passion,
    The people of stances have come, carrying the banner.”

    “The rope of God, the strong rope
    With it, we seek refuge and assistance
    No matter what happens, no matter what occurs
    We are confident in His support.”

    “We break its oars, revealing its falsehood,
    And we do not care about Washington and its classification.
    We break its oars, revealing its falsehood,
    And we do not care about Washington and its classification.”

    America or Terrorism
    Oh, the legitimacy of the jungle
    With us is the strength of God, the Quran, and the door

    We will not leave Palestine
    The place of the eye’s delight
    The stance of a people, a belief in faith and religion

    We are the support, we are the aid
    And we are for her, a father and a grandfather
    We do not bend without her
    Even if none of us remains

    In the heart of her house
    We bear her burdens
    A nation that brings her enemies upon her free people

    Oh, my master Abdul Malik
    The free people of our nation are with you
    Strike us wherever you wish
    Your soldiers obey you and follow you

    Naval power, oh axiomatic verses
    In the depths of the sea, the tyrant will drown

    I wait for the omen
    And reality changes
    Glory be to the One who ascended with the flocks of movement

    And ascended with the missiles
    Record this, oh history
    For the tyrant is a sign, and the apostate is a reprimand

    “And He gave a secret to the secrets
    Of young men who protect the home
    Whoever betrays the country falls by the hands of the fierce eagles.”
    ⭕ Leader of Ansar Allah, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, addressing Arab governments and neighboring countries:

    “If you engage in any collaboration with the Americans, whether by allowing them to attack us from your bases, or through financial support, logistical assistance, or intelligence sharing, it amounts to support and endorsement of the Israeli enemy.”

    6 Shawwal 1446 AH
    ⭕ Leader of Ansar Allah, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi – 6 Shawwal 1446 AH:

    – “Thanks to God, there is a great state of steadfastness at the popular level, with high morale, and no attention is being paid to the voices of the pessimists, discouragers, and those who seek to weaken our resolve.”

    – “We are in an advanced position on the maritime front, and the aircraft carrier Truman is constantly fleeing, while the pursuit continues.”
    ⭕ Yemen is standing up against Washington and “Tel Aviv,” warning their allies in the region against becoming involved in targeting the country and providing logistical support to them. This message carries an implicit threat of action.
    Yemen is fighting back with the strength given to it by God.
    It is not true that it has nothing to lose; in fact, it has a great deal to lose.
    Despite this, it continues to take action, categorizing its losses as part of its sacrifices, which they indeed are.
    This Yemeni stance is rooted in pure faith.
    ⭕ 📹⭐️ The wicked terrorist Trump posted footage of the airstrike that targeted dozens of Houthis in Yemen, claiming that “these Houthis were gathering to receive instructions for launching an attack.”

    The Bab al-Mandab Yemen channel on Telegram clarifies to its followers that they were a group of civilians, including children, gathered to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, with all of them being martyred.
    ⭕ Breaking News – Yemen sends a message of good tidings and reveals major surprises that will change the face of the region..🔥💯 Stay tuned!
    ⭕ 🔴 From this platform, Bab al-Mandab Yemen on Telegram, we address the peoples of the world in their language: O nations, I am a son of Yemen. We are free individuals, and we are children of the free; we were born free, we will live free, and we will die free. Therefore, we hope you understand our feelings of love for our homeland and pride in our identity. We would like to inform you, without apology, that Palestine is our destination and its liberation is our goal…!! Peace.
    ⭕ 🔴 All predictions and analyses regarding the American rhetoric that issues threats in every direction—East, West, North, and South—suggesting a U.S. war against China, Iran, or Russia are misplaced. The U.S. is focused on a war against the Arabs in favor of “Israel,” striking in Lebanon, occupying Syria, maintaining military bases in Iraq, conducting attacks in Yemen, exterminating Palestinians, and punishing and besieging various Arab states. It sows discord, war, chaos, and conflict throughout the Arab world to fragment and weaken it, targeting its armies and national states to impose a new Middle East plan under Israeli control on behalf of the U.S. The goal is to establish a “Greater Israel” stretching from the Euphrates in Syria to the Nile in Egypt and everywhere in between.

    Moreover, all the talk about wars against China, Russia, Iran, Korea, or even a World War is premature and may never materialize. The media noise surrounding these topics serves to distract from the true U.S. objectives in the Middle East, which occupies the heart of the world. By consolidating control through its agent, Israel, the U.S. is setting the stage for future wars against China, Russia, Iran, or even a global conflict.

    The harsh reality is that we are facing a new and aggressive colonial and settlement phase led by America to eliminate the Arab national identity, particularly centered on Palestine, and replace it with a new political geography titled the Zionist Greater Middle East, orbiting around American interests and its allies. The question remains: Do Arab leaders recognize this reality and prepare to face it before they and their countries are consumed?
    ⭕ The Yemeni people and tribes alone possess an estimated sixty million pieces of arms, ranging from light to medium to heavy.

    As for the Yemeni armed forces, they have a stockpile and arsenal of weapons that is beyond imagination.

    They manufacture weapons themselves, relying on the expertise of Yemeni specialists. The Yemeni armed forces stated in 2019 that they are self-sufficient in their arms stockpile, enough for a continuous war lasting fifty years.

    They have expressed their readiness to support Arab and Islamic countries that liberate themselves from American domination and oppose the Zionist agenda.
    ⭕ 🔴 A member of the Supreme Political Council, Mohammed Ali Al-Houthi, stated:

    “The video clip published by Trump and the condition of the visitors demonstrates the falsehood of his claims. The video he shared is, in fact, an attack on a social and festive gathering.”

    He emphasized that the American targeting of festive gatherings indicates America’s terrorism and constitutes a heinous terrorist crime that only brings disgrace and shame to the criminal Trump. Trump’s publication of the scene of the attack is an attempt to evade responsibility for the crime by preemptively releasing information that distorts the description of the incident, as well as promoting a narrative to confront Pentagon officials and others who question or downplay the success of the American aggression against Yemen.

    What America is doing through bombing and targeting civilian sites and others in Yemen is a condemned crime against humanity and an unjustifiable act of terrorism.

    The American aggression against Yemen is criminal support for Israeli crimes aimed at the annihilation of Gaza, which underscores the similarity in their hearts; their unlawful actions have become alike.
    ⭕ Breaking News – We have confirmed information indicating that preparations are underway for a ground operation against Yemen along the coast, which may also include coordinated naval support from Saudi and American forces, aimed at recapturing the strategic Port of Hodeidah.

    Therefore, we say from the platform of Bab al-Mandab Yemen on Telegram to those who threaten us in the ground battle: if you are true sons of your fathers, you should fulfill your threats and come, as we are eager to meet you.
    ⭕ Breaking News – Specialized aviation tracking sites have reported the return of the American refueling aircraft “KC-135R” to Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, after participating in carrying out aggressive strikes on Yemen.
    The Unyielding Spirit of Yemen

    In the heart of the Arabian Peninsula lies Yemen, a land steeped in history, resilience, and an indomitable spirit that echoes through the ages. We are Yemenis by birth, by ancestry, and we stand proud, not as a diaspora or a mere footnote in someone else’s narrative, but as a nation with a rich heritage and unwavering resolve.

    While we cherish our friendships with our Iranian allies, let it be clear: we are not a pawn in anyone’s game. We know how to respond when the tides turn against us, and we are prepared to defend our sovereignty against any adversary. The alliances of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar shall not overshadow the truth: that they are playing a dangerous game, one crafted by the hands of those who wish us harm.

    The puppeteers of America and Israel, driven by their own agendas, shall find that Yemen is not to be underestimated. Our history has taught us to be patient, but make no mistake — our accounts are long, and we shall settle them in due time. The world will soon witness the strength of our resolve and the unity of our people.

    In the face of adversity, we stand tall, and we will show the world how to confront terrorism with courage and determination. Our voices will not be silenced, and our story will be told through every act of defiance and resilience.

    Join us in celebrating the spirit of Yemen on our Telegram channel, Bab Al-Mandab, where we share our triumphs, our struggles, and the unwavering pride that defines us. Together, we will inspire the world with our courage and solidarity.

    Yemen, a beacon of strength, will rise again. Let the world hear our roar!

    💠 @Dmitry_Medvedev: 
    ⭕ Fifteen years ago in Prague, I signed the New START Treaty with President Obama.

    Unfortunately, it did not reduce the risk of nuclear war. This failure can be attributed to the US and its allies’ approach. At some point, they decided they could maintain technical nuclear parity with Russia while simultaneously waging an undeclared war, first through unlimited sanctions and then by providing their weapons and personnel. This brought the world to the brink of World War III. All the while, senile Biden’s administration insisted there was no threat of nuclear conflict. This was a cynical lie: the threat had reached its peak.

    The Trump administration acknowledges this, at least in word (though they’ve proposed spending a record $1 trillion on defense). The European dimwits do not. On the contrary, they’ve begun rattling their puny strategic arsenals again.

    As things are, even if the conflict around so-called “Ukraine” ends completely, nuclear disarmament will be impossible for decades to come. The world will create new, more destructive weapons, and more countries will acquire nuclear arsenals.

    We all know how this ends.

    LOL. Did anyone inform the Saudis they were being suicided, whether in narrative and/or in fact?


    what will the Marine orifice of Thug Life Inc. do when he realizes it is his side with the buttered buns and that the entire region waits to pounce?? And that after “Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin” it was Persia that crashed the degenerate party?

    💠@ejmalrai:
    This information is incorrect. Iraqi militias won’t disarm unless the US ends its presence in Iraq and the ISIS menace ends. Furthermore, the instability in Syria can’t be disregarded,

    “Iran-backed militias in Iraq ready to disarm to avert Trump wrath” |link|
    [there is just so much crap out there. A Tsunami of Effluvia. I saw this yesterday, recognized the sheer delusion, and didn’t share it. It is like sounding off on plans to “reinvade Yemen with already defeated Saudis.” Or claiming Hezbollah and Hamas have been defeated. Or claiming Iranian radars and air defenses were overcome last year by the pitiful zionazi aggression that aborted early. What do all this nonsense have in common?? It imputes weakness on Iran and its “proxies”, bolsters the desperate international zionazi, and thereby ensures the USUK-Persian Murder-Suicide takes place. It is all about getting the corn-fed lads over the line to commit to their group suicide, by lying to the nazis about the real score. (what were the other buncha nazis fed, prior to being inserted into Kursk to die??) The reality is the region is poised on hair trigger, waiting for the lunatics to wade in, to finish the bastards off, just as happened to them in Kursk. And it shall happen. i recall somewhere on one of the occult channels during corona about Orange Gang being the second coming of the Assyrians?? Some of that bloodline was preserved, maybe via Magyars/Scythians. Anyway, at the End, much of old players at the Beginning return, like the demons released from the Pit too.

    🔻 Seyed Mohammad Marandi: “Nuclear threshold state” has no definition in the NPT or IAEA agreements. It’s a political concept. The NPT and IAEA only consider a country in violation if it diverts nuclear materials to weapons or breaches safeguards. Latent capability alone does not constitute a violation.

    🔻 Brian Crowell: @RealScottRitter Your batting average is down to .100. Back to Triple AAA baseball. SMH .
    🔻 Elijah J. Magnier 🇪🇺: The NPT divides states into nuclear-weapon states and non-nuclear-weapon states. It does not recognize a legal category for threshold states. The IAEA monitors enrichment but does not define or use the term “nuclear threshold state” in any legal or binding context.

    Speaking to VRT television, De Wever dismissed the arrest decision, emphasizing that practical considerations outweigh ethical concerns in international diplomacy. He explained, “There is such a thing as realpolitik. Within that framework, practical considerations prevail over ethical ones.” He further added, “I don’t think there is a single European country that would arrest Mr Netanyahu if he went there.

    🔻 AM: How they’ll initiate it precisely is anyone’s guess, but the packaging will be terror, Yemen, Islam, and Israel. Tried and tested. ‘We were patient and tried diplomacy for a long time, but they wouldn’t come to the table’.

    There is no serious negotiation between the US and Iran. It is nonsense. The US is pretending to negotiate in order to be able to amass forces for the attack without interruption.

    They are going to make a false proposal and attack when the Iranians discuss it – just like they did with Hezbollah.

    It will do them no good, though, as Iran is much better prepared for trickery, can counter at a minute’s notice and has appx 50 times the firepower of the US in the Middle East. It’s a gap that can’t be closed. The US is following Netanyahu into the abyss
    🔻 M Ramy: I saw the pictures of both of them on various newspapers, it just seems Trump is so grumpy next to him. Trump looks so serious and uncomfortable. The difference in body language is so obvious.
    🔻 AM: Yes he hates and fears him
    🔻 In Other Words: Trump is the ultimate Manchurian President, dutifully representing Zionist interests.
    🔻 Simon Jester: Yep. Iran knows it’s the last free country on Wesley Clark’s “Countries the Evil Empire will destroy” list. And they have friends.
    ⭕🔻 Scott Ritter:
    For weeks I have been advocating for a negotiated settlement to the crisis that has brought the US and Iran on the brink of war.
    I have assiduously detailed the nature of the threat perceived by the US that, if unresolved, would necessitate military action, as exclusively revolving around Iran’s nuclear program and, more specifically, that capacity that is excess to its declared peaceful program and, as such, conducive to a nuclear weapons program Iran has admitted is on the threshold of being actualized.
    In short, I have argued, the most realistic path forward regarding conflict avoidance would be for Iran to negotiate in good faith regarding the verifiable disposition of its excess nuclear enrichment capability.
    Even when Trump alienated Iran with his “maximum pressure” tactics, including an insulting letter to the Supreme Leader that all but eliminated the possibility of direct negotiations between the US and Iran, my stance remained unchanged: this crisis could only be resolved through negotiation, and that if Trump took direct negotiations off the table, then Russia and/or China would have to step up and nail down a settlement through third party talks.
    For opting to promote a reality-based process that provided the only viable path toward peace, I was viciously attacked and ridiculed by both the digital mob, comprised of new age philosophers, self-styled “peace activists”, and a troll class that opposes anything and everything it doesn’t understand (which is most factually-grounded argument), as well as people I had viewed as fellow travelers on a larger journey of conflict avoidance—podcasters, experts and pundits who did more than simply disagree with me (which is, of course, their right and duty as independent thinkers), traversing into the realm of insults and attacks against my intelligence, integrity and character.
    Today we see the following:
    Trump has softened his stance on Iran, narrowing his focus to exclusively nuclear issues—as I had predicted.
    Iran has agreed to third party negotiations—as I predicted, and both Russia and China will be meeting with Iran in the coming days to discuss its nuclear program—as I predicted.
    The Director-General of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, has announced he may be heading to Iran shortly to discuss Iran’s nuclear program—as I predicted.
    The US-Iran crisis is grounded in the complexities, niceties and formalities of international law as set forth in the nuclear nonproliferation treaty (NPT), which Iran signed in 1970 as a non-nuclear weapons state.
    The NPT will be at the center of any negotiated settlement.
    Those who dismissed the NPT and belittled the role of international law simply underscored their ignorance of the reality that surrounds Iran’s nuclear program.
    While Israel may have exaggerated Iran’s nuclear capabilities over the years, and goaded the US to attack Iran because of the alleged threat posed by its nuclear program, the fact remains that this crisis has been triggered by the very capabilities Iran admits to having—stocks of 60% enriched uranium with no link to Iran’s declared peaceful program, and excessive advanced centrifuge-based enrichment capability which leaves Iran days away from possessing sufficient weapons grade high enriched uranium to produce 3-5 nuclear weapons.
    This crisis isn’t about Israel or Israel’s own undeclared nuclear weapons capability.
    It is about Iran’s self-declared status as a threshold nuclear weapons state, something prohibited by the NPT.
    This is what the negotiations will focus on.
    And hopefully these negotiations will permit the verifiable dismantling of those aspects of its nuclear program the US (and Israel) find to present an existential threat.
    Peace is not guaranteed.
    But war is unless common sense and fact-based logic wins out over the self-important ignorance of the digital mob and their facilitators.

    The Sudanese government called on the UK to reconsider its policy and engage in constructive dialogue.

    I saw similar yesterday. It appears a psyop. Absolute lunacy. The same parties already tried it several times several years ago – and were humiliated. Ansarullah today is vastly stronger. And has more missiles and drones which can end Saudis modern life, returning them to the camel life and raiding desert caravans. And lead to regime change inside KSA. So it is not gonna be retried under current circumstances. Iran first…..

    Israel’s intensified strikes in recent weeks have destroyed eight schools, more than 100 mosques and 85 percent of the city’s sewage system in Rafah , creating conditions ripe for disease outbreaks. Rafah accounts for about 16 percent of Gaza’s total area and is home to 300,000 people.

    ⭕ There is a particularly vicious intent behind the defeating silence and complicity of Western culture and media: it is meant to inflict upon Palestinians the most extreme and brutal form of othering:

    People who don’t matter when they’re alive.
    People who don’t matter when they die.
    People who don’t matter when they get thrashed and tortured in the most satanic and barbaric way.
    People who don’t matter when they are babies and little children left to die alone in a tent of a hospital floor with no relatives and no one to recognize them.
    People who don’t matter when they are beheaded babied and toddlers
    People who don’t matter when they are the bodies of a mother and child, or two siblings, holding each other in one last hug of horror
    People who do not matter and will not matter, no matter what is done to them dead at the center of humanity’s field of vision for 18 months – – for 140 years of Zionism, which has always, always, been vile, scheming and anti-human – always, from the first minute it was conceived in the mind of the first soulless, psychopathic European.

    There is a particularly vicious intent behind this deliberate, mass-produced, and mass-orchestrated silence, and we must not mistake it for simple indifference. We must recognize the burning, murderous, genocidal desire behind it.

    The culture and media of the West are not simply silent about the genocide: they are fierce contributors to it; it is their greatest joy and delight in life, to have white cultures eradicate brown and black cultures. it is their fantasy, their wish, their kink, their fetish, their god and mission in life.

    It is not indifference; it is calculated, fully committed, enthusiastically given assistance to mass murder.

    We must not and will not allow this truth to be muddled, nor let anyone get away with it.

    We may not have the armies and firepower to stop it, but we own humanity’s collective conscience and consciousness.

    We will not let them other the Palestinians as their sick cultural heritage instructs them to compulsively do every day.

    We can insist, must insist, will insist, on saying it loud and clear every minute of every day:

    The Palestinians are our people. They are us.
    The babies are our babies. The parents are our parents. The families are our families. The mosques and schools are our mosques and schools.

    And you – all the heads of the murder machine – are the sickest members of the human family, with brains infected by rabies and hearts canceled by psychopathy.

    We will tell the story straight, from now till forever.

    No one will escape judgment. No individual and no institution.

    The absolute othering of Palestinians will fail. Humanity will only remember you – the murderers and their abettors – as an alien breed of monsters. Because this is all white Western colonizers have ever been and will ever be.

    The human body will reject you like a virus, you fucking sickness

    🗣 “A move that underscores mounting fiscal pressures at the Pentagon and a broader shift in military strategy away from Europe and counterterrorism,” an American portal reported, citing unnamed military officials.

    It’s unclear whether the reforms will affect Reserve or National Guard personnel; however, discussions of reducing the US Army from its current 450,000 troops are still underway.

    As the portal explains, military strategists intend to turn the US ground forces into a “more agile, specialized instrument better suited for future conflicts.”

    Earlier, US media reported that the Pentagon was exploring significant cuts at the top level of the US military command, as well as merging US European Command with Africa Command and combining US Northern Command and US Southern Command into one entity.

    ‘Forgive me, mother. This is the path I chose—to help people.’

    These were the last words of Rifaat Radwan, who filmed his own murder in Rafah. He was part of a Red Crescent convoy aiding wounded civilians. The convoy—clearly marked, unarmed, with flashing lights—was attacked on March 23, 2025.

    For five days, the UN and Red Crescent were denied access to search for the missing rescue workers. When granted entry, they found 15 rescuers buried in a mass grave. The UN and Red Cross have called it the deadliest assault on their workers since 2017.

    On April 2, the IDF stated that on March 23, ‘several vehicles were identified advancing suspiciously toward IDF troops without headlights or emergency signals,’ and their movement wasn’t coordinated in advance, prompting troops to open fire on these ‘suspected vehicles.’

    However, the paramedic’s video, recovered from his body and verified by The New York Times, shows the convoy’s emergency lights were on, contradicting the IDF’s claim and proving their account of the attack was a lie.

    What this is really meant to say is that Netanyahu and his international Zionist zealots everywhere are establishing a police force that will have greater authority than the respective police forces of every country.

    This is the beginning of the overt Jewish-Zionist policing of Western societies. And I have said some pretty shocking things before; they turned out to be true. So you better believe this as well. I have been speaking about Israel’s ‘final solution’ approach for over a year.

    With every instance of zero resistance on the part of Western governments, the Zionist brazenness goes up a notch. So, there you have it. The international Jewish-Zioniat police force, designed to destabilize and demoralize opposition in the West. They start with Jews as a deception: all of you are next.

    In the West, Ukraine is not seen as a subject, but as a territory with price tags on its assets. Poland’s Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Michał Kołodziejczak, is proposing to lease or purchase the port of Odessa for 50 years, along with 500,000 hectares of land for livestock farming, according to TV channel Polsat.

    The motive is simple: the Poles want their own grain port to profit from wheat exports to African countries, which means Warsaw needs direct access to the Black Sea.

    Kołodziejczak also proposed banning Ukrainian agricultural companies from investing in Poland for ten years if Ukraine joins the European Union.

    He added that the idea was his own, but it strongly resembles Trump’s “resources in exchange for aid” approach.

    The American public has changed political parties too often and yet ended up with the same continuity of agenda, because the root cause is that WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MONEY SUPPLY OF A STATE, CONTROL THE ENTIRE NATION AND WRITES THE LAWS OF ITS SOCIETY.

    This is not a novel revelation. James A. Garfield, the 20th President of the United States, famously remarked, “He who controls the money supply of a nation controls the nation” (when he was a congressman in 1866). Mayer Amschel Rothschild, who founded the Rothschild banking dynasty in Frankfurt, Germany, in the 1760s, and whose sons expanded it across European cities, including London (Britain, 1811), Paris (France, 1817), Vienna (Austria, 1820), and Naples (Italy, 1821), famously said: “Give me control of a nation’s money, and I care not who makes its laws.”

    🔻 Armchair Warlord: Unless the Iran sent them a ton of advanced air defense systems recently, in which case it makes perfect sense… and Iran just pantsed us because we’re now having to use Major League equipment on a AA-ball team.

    (I apologize to my international readers for the baseball analogy)
    🔻 WS: Is it possible JASSMs have simply become the biggest pile left in the warehouse?
    [and likelihood of use in Asia-Pacific recedes by the hour? So why not use it]
    🔻 Cephas: I think both points are possible, very much so and I wouldn’t be suprised if both are true to an extent. However, a third option could be that things that are said on CNN could also be taken with a grain of salt.
    retweet:
    🔻 zerohedge: China has three options:

    1. Concede defeat to whatever terms Trump demands
    2. Devalue the yuan by 20-40%
    3. Unleash biggest fiscal stimulus in its history (talking $2-3 trillion) which will push its debt off the chart
    🔻 Arnaud Bertrand: This is American exceptionalism on steroids, completely disconnected from reality.

    China will do what it always does when faced with U.S. hostile actions: they won’t talk much but trigger policies that will demonstrate in due time that these actions were utterly counter-productive to the U.S.

    In particular, the key objective of Trump here is to “bring manufacturing back home”. And it just so happens that China, as the world’s sole manufacturing superpower today and the world’s largest consumer market, controls a lot of cards when it comes to manufacturing.

    If you just take the pharmaceutical industry for instance: how would you bring the manufacturing of this back home when China dominates the global supply of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and many key chemical precursors essential for drug manufacturing? You’re stuck, you need those to do drug manufacturing.

    Of course you could also try to bring the manufacturing of those back home too but, to do so, you’d need specialized equipment which – guess what – is also largely manufactured in China.

    But sure, you could therefore decide to bring the manufacturing of those specialized equipment back home as well but, to do so, you’d need other critical materials that China currently dominates the processing of globally.

    And so on and so forth. This “turtles all the way down” problem exists across virtually ALL industries worldwide, which means that China – if they decide so – is in effective control of whether Trump achieves his principal objective, or not.

    And if he doesn’t, then he’ll just have made prices for everything the U.S. buys much more expensive for U.S. consumers, as well as shot U.S. companies in the foot with more expensive production costs and losses of critical markets, with very little to show for it in exchange.

    Meanwhile China’s economy doesn’t rely on exports to the U.S., they represent less than 3% of its GDP.

    Sure, as many people rightly point out, a lot of what China sells to other countries – like Vietnam – is in fact U.S.-bound and that will get affected too. But even if one was to take a maximalist number, the hit actually wouldn’t be too important.

    Exports overall are 18% of China’s GDP and the U.S. accounts for roughly 30% of global consumer spending so at most we’re talking about 30% * 18% = 5.4% of China’s GDP getting affected.

    And how much of that 5.4% is genuinely vulnerable? Only the portion where the U.S. can realistically reshore manufacturing – something which again China has numerous tools to impede. So we may be talking a 1 or 2% hit on GDP in the worst case scenario, for a country growing at 5% a year. The effect is marginal.

    Heck, the effect will probably even be overall positive for China. With his trade war, Trump is antagonizing virtually the entire world, pushing countries closer to China as an alternative economic partner. Even Japan – Japan! – is now edging closer to China (link).

    When Trump imposed tariffs in his first term, what happened? The EU, Japan, Canada, and others didn’t join America’s crusade – they accelerated their own trade deals with China. RCEP became the world’s largest trade agreement. Belt and Road Initiative investments expanded. Yuan-denominated trade increased. China’s position as the central hub of Asian manufacturing networks strengthened, not weakened.

    And during Trump’s first term China was largely caught by surprise. This time they knew what to expect and they’re much better positioned for it.

    All in all, think about it, who’s most likely to end up the loser in this struggle:

    1. The U.S., which has to somehow rebuild entire manufacturing ecosystems that took decades to develop in China (and which, as we saw, China has tools to impede), will face higher inflation as import costs rise, and whose companies will lose access to the world’s fastest growing consumer market?

    2. Or China, which has been systematically reducing its U.S. dependence for years, has already established itself as the manufacturing hub for most of the world, and can redirect exports to its own massive domestic market and other international partners?

    The fundamental miscalculation here is viewing global trade as a zero-sum game where America can simply dictate terms through force, rather than acknowledging the complex interdependences at play.

    This isn’t just American exceptionalism – it’s American delusion.
    🔻 Stay Curious: When you account for US multi national corporations trading inside China v Chinese MNCs in the US there is a $65B US surplus not a $282B deficit!
    For example Apple earns around $30 billion annually in gross profit from China, based on its $100+ billion in annual sales there (about 20-25% of its global revenue).
    With over 600,000 vehicles sold in 2024 (about half its global total) Tesla’s China profits are estimated to be $5-7 billion annually.
    Consumer Goods firms (e.g., Nike, Starbucks): report China as a high-growth, high-margin market, with profit margins often exceeding 15-20%.
    Vast profits are flowing from China to the US that America is choosing to ignore in their trade calculations.

    🔻 Arnaud Bertrand: Excellent point!
    🔻 Nights in film: What would have been smarter is a long term industrial policy that made headways 5-10 years ago, with the introduction of tariffs after the base was put in place. American hasn’t done that. I suspect this policy won’t last long, and negotiations will be sold as “wins”
    🔻 Arnaud Bertrand: I agree this is probably the most likely outcome. Backtracking spinned as a win.

    I disagree with the ending PoV. Given the lack of serious Syrian support, incomplete western defeat in 404, larger global unawareness of Anglo-Zionist depravity and genocidal mentality, and the correlation of forces with most regional states alligned with Empire – Nasrallah, Persians, and Yemeni political bureaus demonstrated wisdom in slow-walking it. It was not time for full war. And they were honest and said it was a long-term attrition. The military guys may have been correct in their short-term rationalization, but the political cadre had the long-view wiser approach… and have been bourne out since, even with extreme losses to date – all the antagonists of zionism, salifism, and the West are now dead meat in the region. What remains is the manner of removing the dead weight.


    Syria is boiling. He thinks it will soon be the epicenter of overall Resistance. And it is true – at the Second Coming, Damascus will have returned to the Resistance, and be besieged by the Moshiach. Interesting changes of fortune ahead.
    He makes three other excellent points –

    1. as in Russia, Yemen and other martial lands, the Syrian people are highly versed in small and heavy weapons, and have easy access. 90% or so were either in the army or reservists, having a direct border with satanic Legion. As in USA, there are 3x more weaponry than Syrians. So all the bombing of zionazis in last months barely touched the stocks – only the larger and known depots. Each town, village, city and neighborhood has armed men. They will have to clear them one by one, time which they lack given developments overall. Even sending the headchopper Horde to help them will not suffice, as they’re too few and exposed. Syria is a delightful tar pit
    2. Virtually all native Syrians hate zionazis. Even those at odds with former regime. Knives are drawn for the zionazis in every town. Daraa, the closest town, of the Druze, killed a bunch of zionazis a few days ago.
    3. the syrian headchoppers have exposed Salafism, the GCC and Erdogan. They continue to collaborate, whilst being invaded by zionazis! Without even decency to protest the rape. This will awaken the entire comatose sunnis, who now see the compradores for who they are. And that may have the brilliant plan in opening the gates of Damascus to the Horde – it will bring the sunni majority physically into the fight and sideline the demented Salafi branch of Legion. It may be a Big Club, but they’re being taken down one by one

    💠🌎🛡GEOPOL360🕊🌍:
    ⭕🇦🇲🇪🇺🇷🇺 Armenian President Vahagn Khachaturyan signed the law initiating Armenia’s accession process to the European Union.

    The Russian Deputy Prime Minister stated that Moscow views Armenia’s discussions on the EU accession bill as the beginning of the country’s withdrawal from the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU).

    The Armenian Minister of Economy, meanwhile, stated that Yerevan has no intention of withdrawing from the EAEU.
    [note the insistence of the compradore Armenian regime to stay as a trojan within the EAEU. This mirrors the other compradores of the GCC and their role in BRICS. Empire has many ways to spoil the soup. Russia is taking a refreshing approach – “choose us or our existential enemies”]

    💠@Hamas/Tsahal:
    Houthi leader Abdel Malik al-Houthi:

    We are not like those who watch the crimes of the Israeli enemy in Gaza. On the contrary, we assume our responsibility before God and will continue to support the oppressed Palestinian people.

    We will not be intimidated by the United States. We will continue our operations, and what matters to us is that God be pleased with us (…).

    We can still launch missiles and drones at sea and deep into enemy territory.

    💠@Intel Slava Z:
    ⭕ 🇺🇸After the introduction of new tariffs on goods from most countries of the world, more than 7 trillion dollars burned up in the US stock market in just over 2 days.
    The stock market decline was the 4th in recorded history.

    Banks predict the start of a recession in the US as early as this year.

    The Trump administration, meanwhile, claims that these are all temporary fluctuations and that when they all cave in, it will bring hundreds of billions of dollars a year to the budget.

    But judging by China’s response, the consequences will be much more serious than Washington expects.
