    The mention of the Persian-Greek war in the narration seems apt, but in addition one ought to remember Salamis. (“The Battle of Salamis: The Naval Encounter that Saved Greece — and Western Civilization” Strauss)  The details of the defeat are instructive…intrigue, treasons, deception… the Persian (superior) navy was induced to row all night in futile search for the weaker Greek fleet, while the Greeks ate and slept well ashore… and knowing the nature of the local seas and weather, while the Persians did not…and knowing how to swim ashore to helping friends, while the Persians did not swim, and the few that made it to shore were slaughtered… The Persian fleet was essential to the logistic support of the Persian Army… and in the hard afternoon breeze that navy was destroyed as the Great King watched from his portable throne, perched on the overlooking hill… It’s not a perfect repeat, true, but the similarities are sobering… We ought to keep the Persian subs in mind too… and the alliances which have vital interests in the outcome. It’s for the aggressor a stupid action, everything to lose and little to gain… Naturally Fatboy’s never even heard of the battle…

    There may be an error…”720 miles” puts the pirate fleet not in the Persian Gulf, but in the Arabian Sea…https://www.google.com/maps/@20.3514752,61.7739272,6z?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDEyNS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA2N0gBUAM%3D

    If narration is accepted that Bibi doanwanna war right now, and fatboy insists, then maybe his coy plan (or simple whim) is to get Iran to eliminate the zionazi parasite that’s blackmailing him… neh, maybe…  If he gets a buncha corn fed lads kilt in the process, would that bother him?

    Ahem wonderin’ if the gang’s been buying put options on the oil…they always try to make more loot…

    An we may ask if the helpful Pakis have sent a few “special munitions”…

    New Iranian rocket, target zone includes CONUS… far out!

    We’ll see who keeps their promises…

    “Naval Blockade” is not necessarily equivalent to seizing ships. A general definition: “an operation by a belligerent State to prevent vessels and/or aircraft of all States, enemy as well as neutral, from entering or exiting specified ports, airfields, or coastal areas belonging to, occupied by, or under the
    control of an enemy belligerent State”

    wiki say> According to modern international law, blockades are an act of war. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockade

    a learned paper on the subject> https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326991862_Naval_Blockade

    Forces attempting to blockade are liable to be destroyed. The goal may be “optical”, in that the dark attacking “blockading” force “leadership” desires that Iran “be seen to have struck the first blow” – which iirc is a quote from Roosevelt with respect to the Japanese actions at Pearl Harbor…

    The statement from zone trump does not address the statement from Fico, and is deflective. We may assume that the Fico observation is confirmed by zone trump, since it is not denied. Besides, it’s obvious that great orange is in elderly decline.

    Interesting…we have wondered what the gang called ICE properly ought to be compared to in nazi lingo… the brownshirts didn’t quite fit, the SA didn’t get paid by the Reich, so that wasn’t it…an’ they’re not really “police”…’cause police are local – and they’re not sheriffs, no way! Big quandry!   But now it seems it’s properly the SS… no chit…. here’s our Southern Speaker Lady…with the news about JD and and his goodfellas an the bigbigplan…Schutzstaffel = ‘Protection Squadron’ … no more secret service for the anointed fellas… (secret service was “unreliable” in the rodeo at Dallas…this is not forgotten!) Here’s the wiki on the good ol’ boys…https://en.wikipedia[dot]org/wiki/Schutzstaffel

    and about slaves…an’ ghunz!

    and then we’ve our freckled gal in Portland…

    Trump just said, “You can’t have guns.”  (this was inevitable)

    ……………..

    I am very sorry that it’s going this way. Ordinary decent people don’t use guns on other people without experiencing bigtime trauma… Contrawise, there are psychopaths that lust for it… They say the Panthers and the various other social clubs are having certain thoughts about self-defense. What awful times lie in offing.

    The claimed reason for the ICE goons is inconsistent with their use and their actions. Carlton Meyer at G2mil noticed this and wrote:

    Jan 14, 2026 – Militarized ICE

    There is no need to send federal storm troopers onto city streets to arrest illegals. Just have some in each city who can respond to local police when they arrest someone who is likely illegal. ICE can show up and take them into custody. They did this with the Oklahoma Highway patrol at checkpoints and it worked great. They would find people with no license and no record so ICE was there to take them away, and they were violating a law and threatened public safety.

    The Trump people have said they are aware of at least two million people who have worked illegally for years in the USA, based on IRS and SSA reports. SSA  just sends employers a letter to correct the info but never follows up. ICE should send a letter telling them to correct the problem and an ICE agent will drop by their office in 30 days to follow up. If the person is still employed, they will be fined. This will open up two million jobs for Americans and encourage two million illegals to return home. But this doesn’t happen since Trump’s business buddies want to keep this cheap labor.” ENDE

    I don’t endorse Meyer’s implications, and I also find fault with some of his logic…what he does not say is what the ICE operations are actually intended to accomplish. I think that’s obvious, and wish he’d said it. Maybe later he will be brave and say it.

    https://youtu.be/v8g9hbDc0WA Just first 55 seconds..Hudson speaks of the delusions

    Recalling crafty Iranians have put to sea with their subs, designed for and practiced in the tricky currents, shoals, tides, and salinity variations of the Gulf and Straits… I am minded of the Greek Victory over Xerxes at Salamis…

    Recalling that the ignorant west gang is under the imperative of liquidating Iranian sovereignty, and in serious trouble in Die Heimat over the reactions to ICE gang murders…and those pictures in the Epstein files…A splendid war with Persia may seem to them like a happy solution…the gods create their delusions…lead them into defeat…which brings us back to Hudson’s opening remarks… “nutty!”  all of ’em, not just the european nitwits.

Amb Freeman near the end speaks to the pending liberation of Taiwan, thus completion of the unfinished Chinese Civil War…and of the possible reasons for the removal of the “corrupt” generals…neh, maybe they didn’t do enough to get ready for the finale… Ahemtink that it’s part of the preparations for the liberation…those general are long in tooth for war… Freeman calles it “invasion”…which is silly, China can’t invade itself...

    His interview with the Sheriff... Sheriff David Hathaway : Power Without Accountability — ICE Under Scrutiny –dovetails nicely………https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPEoRXElty8

    Fragment of significance....Please note that this auto-enforcement principle was destroyed under the tyrant Lincoln…

    Since rights are as personal and natural as our bodily movements, only a jury can take them away after the person from whom the rights were sought has been found to have voluntarily given up those rights by engaging in aggression against the rights of others.

    That is at least the theory of natural rights. They cannot be impaired by legislative command or executive edict; rather, only by a judge and jury after meticulous compliance with due process.

    The idea of conditioning ratification sprang from the view that a state could leave the federal government just as easily as it joined — by a simple act of legislation.

    James Madison, the principal author of the Constitution, argued that the legislature or the highest state court in a state could nullify acts of the federal government that are facially repugnant to the Constitution.

    Jefferson and Madison secretly authored resolutions adopted by the Virginia and Kentucky legislatures that in those states nullified the Alien and Sedition Acts, in which Congress had criminalized speech critical of the government. ENDE

    IIRC from launch zone near Bering Strait much of CONUS including Jim Creek, Submarine Base Bremerton, Beal AFB, and Anoxia, and oh so many more… However we ought to bear in mind that there are suicidal institutions of great influence in CONUS…and thus they are not deterred, but encouraged by Oreshnik et al. They actually believe that when they destroy the world they’re gunna beam up and rule in the Celestial Realm…barking mad!

    Here https://youtu[dot]be/RPEoRXElty8 find Napolitano and a very realistic Sheriff… I remark that in discussion of the Constitution it is generally misunderstood that the document gives rights. Far from it. It gives a very limited set of powers from the States to the central government…all other rights remain with the States or with the people. Their rights are natural – they come from God. The amendments are redundantly provided just to make sure. Read the Federalist Papers. Nearly everything the US Government is doing is inconsistent with the basic law, bluntly, unconstitutional, or actually illegal. Not that I object…that Great American Hero who ran the Northern War of Aggression pretty well trashed, destroyed, the constitution…and matters have simply continued to decline. And we can see that the constitution was probably unrealistic from the beginning…certainly it contained contradictions – lines of fracture.  At best it was a temporary agreement, and even at that, ratification may have been faked…

    I wish Napolitano would interview Garland Nixon…

    Here be the sheriff.

    Thanks! This reply is new to me. I am ashamed that I missed the TNT/O error, but recall that I criticised Postol’s thesis that implied that the nature of a weapon had something, anything, to do with the nature of the reponse to it. A basic error in logic. I missed the chemistry.  I do note that in the equation the “7 CO” fraction of released gas is combustible in air…very often explosives go through a series of secondary reactions in air…for example the fellas add some aluminum – which is heated by the TNT and then forms an air-fuel secondary explosive and lots of heat… but it’s, as said, not (free) O. I’m not a chemist either, but it’s middle school chemistry… Andre is an emotional guy. Postol a good hearted fellow. People do what they do… and everyone is worried about the future.
