    Although I expect both Hormuz and Bab el Mandeb to be closed…this is the first claim that it has been or is closed. First I’ve seen… Take it with salt.

    The CIA’s Nazis, Blackmail Parties & Worldwide Terror [Pizzagate Part 12]

    A truely skilled method superior to the crass nazi bribery and blackmail of today is described by Tacitus…Tacitus: Agricola: Book 1 [20] | Internet Sacred Text Archive https://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/tac/ag01020.htm There, Tacitus writes:  The following winter passed without disturbance, and was employed in salutary measures. For, to accustom to rest and repose through the charms of luxury a population scattered and barbarous and therefore inclined to war, Agricola gave private encouragement and public aid to the building of temples, courts of justice and dwelling-houses, praising the energetic, and reproving the indolent. Thus an honourable rivalry took the place of compulsion. He likewise provided a liberal education for the sons of the chiefs, and showed such a preference for the natural powers of the Britons over the industry of the Gauls that they who lately disdained the tongue of Rome now coveted its eloquence. Hence, too, a liking sprang up for our style of dress, and the “toga” became fashionable. Step by step they were led to things which dispose to vice, the lounge, the bath, the elegant banquet. All this in their ignorance, they called civilization, when it was but a part of their servitude.

    (my bold) You will note that the modern methods are the same, but that Tacitus is selective about the cruelty, the raping of slaves (‘the bath’) and violence, the Agricola is History, but it is the canonical polite version…this is to say it’s propaganda of the light grey variety.

    The entire series is worth reading...The CIA’s Nazis, Blackmail Parties & Worldwide Terror [Pizzagate Part 12]

    https://x.com/ibrahimtmajed/status/2027721872096280957?s=20 The IRGC announced the destruction of the American FP-132 radar in Qatar, a long-range early-warning system capable of detecting ballistic missile launches up to 5,000 km away. This radar is a core node in the U.S. regional missile defense architecture, feeding tracking data into systems such as THAAD and supporting allied networks, including Israel’s layered shield built around Arrow 3, David’s Sling, and Iron Dome. If truly disabled, the impact would not translate into a fixed interception percentage, but it would reduce early-warning time, weaken redundancy, and increase pressure on remaining sensors. Missile defense effectiveness depends on trajectory, saturation, decoys, and interceptor coordination, and fewer long-range sensors narrow the reaction window. Israel also hosts another high-powered early-warning radar as part of U.S.–Israeli cooperation, making such assets central to any escalation calculus. Targeting early-warning infrastructure is not symbolic, it challenges the backbone of regional missile defense and significantly raises the strategic stakes.

     

    https://x.com/rybar_en/status/2027694557802971215   Amid Iranian strikes on Israel, a group takeoff of US KC-46 Pegasus tankers from Ben Gurion Airport has been observed heading south. While part of this may be related to dispersing aircraft away from potential Iranian attacks, the flight path points toward Ovda Airbase. Before the current escalation, Ovda hosted US F-22 Raptors. The tankers are likely escorting these fighters toward Iranian airspace to support ongoing or new strike missions.

    Dubai Airports suspended all operations indefinitely due to Iranian ballistic missile activity. * Regional carriers like Emirates and Etihad grounded all flights following the airspace closure. * International airlines including Air India and Turkish Airlines suspended Middle East services. * The closure disrupts the primary global transit hub connecting Asia, Europe, and Africa. * Rerouted flights face increased costs from longer routes and $100 per barrel oil. * Debris from the missile strikes caused one civilian death in Abu Dhabi. * The disruption halts the UAE economic model based on trade, tourism, and logistics.

    Ahemtink 100 sambuck/brl is a very optimistic forecast. Stumpy suggested 250…but he’d been smoking something…

    I thought that the “negotiations” were a fraud. Now it’s indisputable.  But now there are negotiations, as, after all, the goal of war is political – just like the non-violent negotiation, but more sincere.

    Nicely put. As you say, “normal negotiations”. In this example it’s my view that the function of this, a mutually fraudulent posture of “negotiation”, was getting ready for the kinetic “negotiation”…each party making preparations for the fight that, as Berletic put it “continuity of agenda” essentially guarantees.  I’d put it more bluntly, the irrepressible nazi drang for world conquest, in opposition to the irrepressible necessity of sovereignty. In such a series of meetings, I admit, that there may be naive people who are sincere, but they only matter if they accept the ultimatum and lies. I think that “lost” is most appropriate though…because now people will die, treasure will be destroyed. Possibly the fight will be postponed again…but absent a celestial intervention….it’s essentially sure to take place.

    The Narco clip seems to show that the little fascist is nervous. Well, that’s very understandable.

    fwiw the F-35 has an official one-way range of 1,200 NM. Maybe slightly greater if the avionics are shut down. It is claimed, however, that the “Israelis” have improved the range. Experts claim a “25%” improvement is probably possible. Personally I am sure the airplane is not so great, but the imperialist nazi believe in it and use it.  And a one way flight that, like the Doolittle raid on Tokyo, terminates in landing out of fuel in contested lands, might not be out of the question… I also think that the nazis are going to get their azzes handed to them in pretty rough shape.

    Peter Dale Scott uses, and explains, the term “negative template” to refer to what truths can be found in a large study of propaganda and outright lies. BBC and NPR contribute to the template. One starts with the assumption, or in the specific example the knowledge, that they’re lying. What’s not said, what is the implied intent of the lies…and so forth. Cops use something similar in crime interviews… Garland Nixon did a nice job of explaining this. https://youtu.be/uil-CaX5_N8 as it pertains to the affair of C. Kirk…

    I can well imagine that close personal association with a “true believer” (Eric Hoffer’s term, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_True_Believer ) in NPR etc would create disagreeable conflict! My sympathies, Friend!

    In the moment the semantic value of “negotiate” is “mutual deception” . both sides know the other is insincere – that a deal under threat is not a deal – that the war is for the world…the deception is useful – both sides are in a secret war for advantage…the 5th column stuff…subversion, discovering targets, setting up murders and sabotage…very useful is the period of skirmish for advantage.

    An honest and sincere presentation by Comrade Berletic…”US Using “Diplomacy” as Pretext not to Prevent its War of Aggression Against Iran” – https://youtu.be/ywcwoTh6E3s Perhaps the best feature being the lack of appeal to emotion and the thorough bibliography that supports his analysis. I tend in one particular to disagree though…Brian says: “…this will continue regardless. Doesn’t doesn’t really care whether you believe it’s leading somewhere pleasant. It isn’t and it will continue being unpleasant until we ourselves change the outcome, the trajectory of all of this….[sic]” One may ask “who’s “we” and who has agency? Probably some might say that the “we” is China and Russia – and the Red Armies and economies… Ordinary ignorant and poorly educated nazi zone people have no agency and are in perpetual thrall – under surveillance and a delusional spell of very effective propaganda. They’re neither innocent nor especially guilty…just chumps.

    Comrade Berletic has, also, an essay that is worthwhile. Notably his conclusion differs from that expressed in the video, which was that “we” can change things. Instead, in his essay, he’s realistic and blunt: “Moreover, Washington’s primary geopolitical objective must be understood clearly — it seeks primacy over all nations of the world. There is no negotiating with a party whose ultimate objective is the subordination and even elimination of those who seek to negotiate with it.

    {Berletic continues} “Only through building up the military, economic, political, and social power required to defend against, deter, and eventually disarm the US of its global aggression can the conflict in Ukraine — and conflicts everywhere else — be brought to a just and permanent end.”

    (my bold)

    No chit. I overheard a fella say much the same to the bus driver more than a year ago…he didn’t realize that he was aligned with Mao…

    In our zone “NPR” retransmitts BBC “News” on radio. It’s an effort, and painful, to track the implications of their lies in audio, and a transcript would be more comfortable, alas! Anyway my “take” from their lengthy “interview” with “president” Zelensky this morning is that UK intends to give the doped-up dwarf and his nazi stooges whatever will keep the war going. They’ll stop at nothing. Another implication is that the UK will continue to fabricate an illusionary 404 in the mind of the public…many re-enforcements of foundational lies. Really expert propaganda, though there were flaws in the form of contradictions…pretty slick….BBC being an expert in slick.. I have written of the old PWE under Selfton Delmer….here, for the curious, a bit about that jolly fella…https://youtu.be/rt7B2LkFB6o  17 minutes and there is a transcript. Keep critical, there may be misdirections and even actual lies… Keep in mind that some obvious avenues of propaganda, and audiences, go un-mentioned...oh golly, why is that?
