War news

"The post-war western approach (especially in the Cold War context) relied on the ability to outspend any military adversary through the acquisition of high-end, over-engineered and costly manned aircraft and munitions. Dominance of airspace and heavy reliance on aerial bombardment, i.e. air-war, was the doctrinal end. The expenditure overmatch (as well as an imputed technical innovation) was viewed as the crucial element in the confrontation with the USSR. Similarly, the impulse in naval warfare was toward investment in ever bigger carriers and their associated tiers of naval support vessels. In ground warfare, the weighting in the Iraq War’s ‘Desert Storm’ was on tanks ‘punching’ and thrusting through the adversaries’ defence lines -- though this approach was dropped by the West in Ukraine following the turn to 21st century drone-led ‘trench warfare’ on the front line. The high-end outspend-approach both favoured the US’ Military Industrial Complex, and together with US dollar hegemony, provided America with the unique advantage of allowing the US effectively to ‘print’ those high-end overmatch supplementary expenses. Then came the Iran war of 2026, whose asymmetric model upended conventional doctrines...."

Iran


Stone Age Iran.
"Trump’s former national security advisor John Bolton recently tweeted that other administration officials had warned the president to dismiss Bolton’s urging to attack Iran because of the easily foreseeable consequences of that war, saying “In 2018–2019, I made the case for regime change in Iran as often as I could. Voices in Trump’s orbit often cited Iran’s capacity to close the Strait of Hormuz as a reason against regime change. Trump has been fully aware this is a possibility, and yet did not prepare.”
"During his Wednesday night speech, Donald Trump made the following claim about Iran’s air defenses: "They have no anti-aircraft equipment, their radar’s 100% annihilated, we are unstoppable as a military force." It appears that President Trump was a bit premature. The US Air Force had a difficult day on Friday:
➡️F-15E (48th Fighter Wing) — Shot down in southwestern Iran. Pilot rescued; WSO still missing.
➡️A-10C Thunderbolt II "Warthog" — Shot down and crashed into the Persian Gulf. Pilot reportedly recovered.
➡️2X HH-60G Pave Hawk — Hit during CSAR mission, one crash-landed across the border in Iraq. All crew reportedly rescued.
➡️KC-135R Stratotanker — Emergency squawk 7700 around 10:00 UTC near Tel Aviv.
➡️F-16CJ “Wild Weasel” (F-16C Block 50/52, SEAD configuration) — Emergency squawk 7700 over Saudi Arabia near the Iraqi border around 15:00 UTC; later disappeared from FlightRadar.
➡️KC-135R Stratotanker — Emergency squawk 7700 around 19:00 UTC near Tel Aviv.

  • "A U.S.-made Guardian Laser Transmitter Assembly (GLTA) of the AN/AAQ-24(V) LAIRCM (Large Aircraft Infrared Countermeasures) system has been recovered in Iran, possibly from a destroyed U.S. Air Force HC-130J Combat King II. Developed by Northrop Grumman, the AN/AAQ-24(V) is an advanced, autonomous defensive suite designed to protect large rotary-and fixed-wing aircraft from infrared-guided threats, particularly man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADS)." [6]
"In the Situation Room on Feb. 11, Mr. Netanyahu made a hard sell, suggesting that Iran was ripe for regime change and expressing the belief that a joint U.S.-Israeli mission could finally bring an end to the Islamic Republic....Mr. Netanyahu’s presentations — and Mr. Trump’s positive response to them — created an urgent task for the U.S. intelligence community. Overnight, analysts worked to assess the viability of what the Israeli team had told the president....The U.S. officials assessed that the first two objectives were achievable with American intelligence and military power. They assessed that the third and fourth parts of Mr. Netanyahu’s pitch, which included the possibility of the Kurds mounting a ground invasion of Iran, were detached from reality. When Mr. Trump joined the meeting, Mr. Ratcliffe briefed him on the assessment. The C.I.A. director used one word to describe the Israeli prime minister’s regime change scenarios: “farcical”. At that point, Mr. Rubio cut in. “In other words, it’s bullsh*t”, he said."
"Yet the US reality is stark (Schryver):
“The US has lost its naval presence and military bases in the Persian Gulf region; its entire inventory of stand-off munitions has been nearly exhausted, along with its air defences, which have been proven woefully ineffective”.
“This is what decisive strategic defeat looks like”.
"As Ben Rhodes, former US Deputy National Security Advisor, put it:
“It’s hard to lose a war this short: this comprehensively”.
"What took Trump from a Tuesday night posting that “a whole civilization will die tonight”, to acquiesce a few hours later to negotiations on the basis of Iran’s 10-point plan, is for conjecture. But perhaps the juxtaposed images of the crashed helicopter from President Carter’s ill-fated attempt to rescue US hostages from Iran in 1980, together with the wreckage of US aircraft near Isfahan from the abandoned Saturday (4 April) attempt to seize enriched uranium from a tunnel at Isfahan, tells its story.
"As one commentator notes, the only thing missing from the later 1980 scene is the presence of the assassinated Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei.
"President Carter, of course, became the political casualty from that event.
"Let us recall too, that this current war was launched by a snap strike to kill the Supreme Leader, Ali Khamanei – and was expected to be a short war of days’ duration only. The NY Times report of the 11 February 2026 meeting at which Netanyahu persuaded Trump to join with an assault on Iran confirms that “the President appeared to think it would be a very quick war … (and) at no point during the deliberations did the Chairman [General Caine] directly tell the President that war with Iran was a terrible idea … [General Caine] would constantly ask, “And then what? But Mr. Trump would often seem to hear only what he wanted to hear”.
"And what Trump chose to hear at the 11 February briefing dovetailed closely with Netanyahu’s own deep longings: “Iran stood apart” for Trump, as for Netanyahu. “He [Trump] regarded Iran as a uniquely dangerous adversary and was willing to take great risks to [fulfil] his desire to dismantle the Iranian theocracy”, the NY Times reported.
"It is no surprise then, that Trump should now be desperately seeking an exit from the Israeli débacle that was set for him. Like Carter, he is on the rocks politically, as well as militarily. But any meaningful off-ramp will require of him to make major concessions — concessions that will grate painfully with his rancorous feelings toward Iran and Iranians.
"Neither Trump nor Netanyahu — despite the three-hour official briefing on 11 February — at all anticipated the strong Iranian response of immediate attacks on US bases in the Gulf that swiftly ensued upon the killing of the Supreme Leader, though this prospect had been clearly prefigured in earlier Iranian warnings.
"The entire 11 February strike plan that was green-lighted in the White House Situation Room meeting hinged on decapitation strikes, stand-off air bombardment, and a visceral (rather than evidence-based) conviction that an internal uprising surely would follow — one that would topple the state.
"It seems likely that if negotiations do proceed, they will not produce an agreement. Iran is engaged in exploding a 70 year-old paradigm through forcing — by threat of economic and market pain — a US acquiesce to Iran’s ‘release’ from the panopticon of US and Israeli repression. Will this involve more pain and death (more war), or less? That is the question."
"William Schryver is one of the few analysts I pay much attention to. The Duran, Ritter, Larry Johnson & “Friends”, Simplicius and others are commentators, each interesting in a different way. But none of them do the kind of analysis that Schryver does. His analyses and predictions are consistently right."

"The U.S. has so far lost the war. None of its war aims has been achieved. Its attempts to steal Iran’s enriched Uranium ended with the biggest air force losses since the Vietnam War era. It is not in a position to set any terms:"
"...Hundreds of U.S. personnel have been killed or injured in the region since the U.S. launched a war on Iran just over a month ago...."
  • "Representative of the Iranian Armed Forces, Sardar Sharakchi, made a rather shocking statement. In particular, he officially confirmed that in 30 days of fighting, the United States lost in killed 900 soldiers. As for the wounded, their number has already reached 5,000. It is noteworthy that many independent experts and journalists are voicing similar figures. According to them, since the beginning of Operation Epic Fury, hundreds of dead US soldiers have been transported to the largest American military hospital, Landstuhl Regional Medical Center, located near Ramstein Air Base in Germany. At the same time, it is reported that the number of wounded turned out to be so high that the American command had to send additional supplies of donated blood from the United States to that military hospital for transfusion. Furthermore, the fact that the American 10th Expeditionary Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron had to turn several C-17A Globemaster III military transport planes into "flying hospitals" indicates that the losses among American servicemen are really very high."

  • Professor Robert Pape: "The United States is trying to find some glimmer of victory so they can get out of the escalation trap....we bomb to try to have regime change....this was always likely to fail....The trap is that we can’t accept defeat. Donald Trump cannot accept defeat politically or his presidency--if not completely over--will be damaged in severe ways going into the midterms, and countries as a whole find it hard to accept strategic defeat.... what does Donald Trump want? He wants a clean victory that he can say is not just a victory over Iran, but a victory over Obama. You see, this is about domestic politics as much as it is about international politics....instead of just three days of bombing, we’re now into week seven. And I doubt Iran is going to give him that clean victory. What’s in it for Iran to help bail President Trump out? That’s the fundamental problem here. Trump is desperately looking for that exit ramp, a way to spin this as a political win. I mean, he’s just not finding it at all." [11]
  • US asks for 2-week ceasefire so ships can return to base at Diego Garcia and elsewhere to reload Tomahawks and other missiles remaining in US stockpile (reloading vertical launch missiles at sea is not possible; it can only be done in port or on land.)
  • WSJ: "It was Good Friday afternoon in a nearly empty West Wing soon after the president learned that an American jet had been shot down in Iran, with two airmen missing. Trump screamed at aides for hours. The Europeans aren’t helping, he said repeatedly. Gas prices averaged $4.09. Images of the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis—one of the biggest international policy failures of a presidency in recent times—had been looming large in his mind, people who have spoken to him said. “If you look at what happened with Jimmy Carter…with the helicopters and the hostages, it cost them the election,” Trump had said in March. “What a mess.” Trump demanded that the military go get them immediately. But the U.S. hadn’t been on the ground in Iran since the government overthrow that led to the hostage crisis, and they needed to figure out how to get into treacherous Iranian terrain and avoid Tehran’s own military. Aides kept the president out of the room as they got minute-by-minute updates because they believed his impatience wouldn’t be helpful, instead updating him at meaningful moments, a senior administration official said." [12]
Comment: The reporting is BS, because it implies the pilot extraction operation was the reason for US presence on the ground in Iran, whereas an unprovoked invasion of Iran's sovereign borders to extract uranium "dust" was underway when the aircraft was shot down. The pilot extraction operation was used as cover in war propaganda to explain the failed uranium extraction operation that resulted in the destruction of 8 US aircraft. RobSAbnormal is fine.

"When a student of world politics says the world is unipolar or bipolar, that is a hypothesis about the polarity of the world. The wager of a unipolar world hypothesis is that there is no state in the international system that can put up a fight with the strongest state in the system. If a state does, in fact, put up a real fight with the strongest state in the system, then the hypothesis of a unipolar world has to be rejected...
"Specifically, if the US cannot suppress Iranian attacks across the gulf, if it cannot forcibly reopen the strait of Hormuz, that would constitute a strategic defeat for the United States. It would prove that the world is not unipolar, bipolar or tripolar, but rather multipolar, with Iran as a real pole of the international system. What will be the geopolitical consequences of this stunning turn of events?
"The only way in which the United States can evade outright defeat is by suppressing and degrading Iran’s ability to hold gulf assets at high levels of risk and keep Hormuz closed.1 If the US cannot, through either the direct application of force or indirectly through military coercion, accomplish this strategic objective, the outcome will be indistinguishable from strategic defeat, even if the war ends in a ceasefire, for then Iran would’ve demonstrated for all to see that the United States does not, in fact, have the military means to impose its will on the gulf."
"After threatening to blow up the country and kill all Iran’s leaders, Trump suddenly “extended the ceasefire indefinitely”.
"The United States military has dangerously depleted its stockpiles of critical missiles during the seven week war on Iran...Intense combat operations have exhausted a staggering portion of America’s most advanced weaponry, including at least 45% of its inventory of Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM), nearly 50% of its Patriot air defense interceptors, and over half of its Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missiles."
It could take up to six years for the US to replenish the spent munitions.

"Iran has total disdain for Trump’s Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and views him as both oblivious of diplomatic processes and totally ignorant of technical issues. Kushner is viewed by Iran as Israel’s man at the table. Iran, the senior official said, does not see any reason to deal with these two without a figure like Vice President JD Vance present."
::*Politico: "President DONALD TRUMP hasn’t stopped taking calls from reporters on his cell phone — sometimes several in one day — since the Iran war began. Aides say it’s a way for the president to make his feelings and positions clear — but the velocity of his comments, coming in often contradictory dribs and drabs, has at times generated confusion and deepened skepticism about whether the president has a plan or strategy to end the war. “He thinks he can use these reporters to move the markets or bully Iran, and sometimes it works, at least with the markets,” said one White House ally granted anonymity to speak candidly. “The problem is that he’s always saying different things. Maybe he’s trying to cover up not having a clear strategy or knowing how he’s going to end the war. But because he’s veering all over the place, that eventually becomes the main thing people see.”...Trump told a reporter who’d called the president’s personal cell phone that he was planning to send STEVE WITKOFF and JARED KUSHNER to Islamabad for another round of talks with Iran. Notably absent was any mention of Vice President JD VANCE, who’d led the delegation during an initial round of talks in Pakistan. The senior official said that omission had been unintentional but that “the reporter took him out of context and said, ‘Oh, he didn’t mention Vance, so Vance must be sidelined.’” By the time aides figured out what had happened, the reporting was already sparking speculation about Vance’s role inside the administration. Ultimately, the vice president had been ready to lead the delegation a second time, but Trump, facing his own self-imposed deadline, opted against sending anyone back for more talks and extended the ceasefire indefinitely. “When reporters call him, because he's very short with them on the phone, they might not get the full picture, and then they just run with it,” the senior official continued. So why, given the limitations of such short conversations, does Trump keep picking up the phone? “It's a desire to let people know where he stands and what he's thinking,” the senior official said. If it’s designed to win Americans’ hearts and minds, the strategy isn’t having much success, according to the polls. A Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted Monday showed Trump’s overall approval rating down to 34 percent, a new low for his second term. Support for the Iran war was also at 34 percent, according to the survey."
Comment: Ordinarily, an interested & informed reader could be spared all this MSM claptrap. However, after several years of idiotic trolling by User:Conservative which brought Conservapedia traffic down from 700,000 unique views per month to 80,000, it's necessary to focus less on factual and analytical reporting and more on redundant MSM liberal claptrap, as User:Conservative requested.

"But they won’t disarm Iran. And Iran will then strike back with unprecedented salvos from their substantial stockpiles. The state of affairs for the empire will go from bad to worse."
"Two interesting contradictory pathways are emerging for Trump on Iran, if we are to trust latest MSM reports. On one hand, new reports claim that Trump now sees the twin options of either total withdrawal from Iran or resumption of hostilities as equally bad. The reports claim he therefore prefers to now maintain the blockade indefinitely as the chief operative posture toward the Islamic Republic. But at the same time, Reuters reports the comical news that the Trump admin’s intelligence agencies are “examining” how Iran’s leadership will potentially react to Trump simply declaring a quick “victory” and pulling out of the conflict:
"JUST IN - U.S. intelligence agencies are studying how Iran would respond if Trump were to declare a unilateral victory against Iran, and potentially pull back from the war — Reuters" [15] [Ed note: Gee whiz, I thought we didn't know who Iran's leadership is...]

"The implication here is obviously that Trump is considering doing so because he knows he has no cards and no further real options—a true zugzwang by any definition...."

Comment: It didn't have to be this way, but the obnoxious and sycophantic trolling of User:Conservative has made it difficult for Conservapedia, and what remains of its readership over the past few years, to have any meaningful input on the catastrophe that is overtaking America, the Trump administration, the conservative movement, and the Republican party. So what do we do? Stick with MSM claptrap, as User:Conservative desires, and abandon an independent voice? RobSAbnormal is fine. Stupid isn't. 22:45, April 29, 2026 (EDT)
"Iran carried out at least 5,471 missile and drone attacks targeting US bases and critical sites in seven Arab countries since Feb. 28...According to information compiled from defense ministries and official information centers of the affected countries, the United Arab Emirates was the most impacted. The UAE Defense Ministry said its systems intercepted 414 ballistic missiles, 15 cruise missiles and 1,914 drones since the start of the attacks...."
"Iran has bombed U.S. bases across the Middle East in retaliation for the U.S.-Israeli war, forcing many American troops to relocate...Many of the 13 military bases in the region used by American troops are all but uninhabitable..."
"U.S. bombers, drones and ships have been fueled, armed and launched via bases in the U.K., Germany, Portugal, Italy, France and Greece, officials say. Attack drones are being directed from a sprawling U.S. base at Ramstein in Germany, the nerve center of America’s operations against Iran," making them parties to the war.
"Trump’s chaotic and isolated approach to the Iran War has caused rifts between the U.S. and many of its closest European allies. Topping that list is the Italians. Trump went into the Iran War without consulting allies and determining how they could support, and then turned around and criticized each of those allies for not helping. This put unnecessary strain on long-standing partnerships with the UK, Spain, France, and Italy. And Trump portraying himself as Jesus Christ and arguing with the pope, doesn’t even help with the non-religious crowd in Italy. As leaders like Giorgia Meloni begin withholding logistical and military cooperation, the U.S. will face major challenges in projecting military power abroad.

"It has slowly become increasingly apparent that Ukraine may be utilizing the airspace of NATO countries for its recent spate of strikes against Russia. Specifically, it is the permissive Baltics that appear to be allowing Ukrainian drones to transit toward sensitive Russian sites near the Gulf of Finland and beyond, then blaming Russia when the drones crash on their territory."
"The Russian Defense Ministry has released a new report citing dozens of key facilities in Western nations which are creating a veritable “rear” for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, by manufacturing drones and other armaments for Ukraine. The key part of the official statement reads: 'We view this decision as a deliberate step leading to a sharp escalation of the military-political trend across the entire European continent and the gradual transformation of these countries into Ukraine’s strategic rear.' The full list of the companies and their addresses was then published by the Russian MOD."

And these brigades did not come from other sectors of the front, but from central and southern Russia. General Syrsky claims that the arrival of such powerful enemy units to this sector of the front means that Russia is preparing for offensive actions to capture the city of Orav with subsequent access to the largest city in the region, Syrsky....the Russian army is advancing on the Zaporozhe front from three directions at once, from the southwest, south, and east. At the moment, two Russian groups are operating in the Zaporozhe direction."

Golden Toilet scandal
▪️The Russian Aerospace Forces detected a group of six UAVs in Latvia’s airspace.
▪️At the same time, two French Rafale fighter jets and two F-16 fighter jets were detected in the air.
➖”Around four o’clock in the morning, the tracks of five out of six detected UAVs disappeared in the area of the city of Rezekne in eastern Latvia. The sixth UAV, after entering Russian airspace, was shot down by Russian air defense systems in the area of the settlement of Likhachevo (78 km southeast of Pskov)”, - the message said.
▪️As a result of the examination of the fallen debris, the aerial target attacking from Latvia’s airspace was identified as an An-196 ‘Lutiy’ UAV of Ukrainian production.
  • The drones were reportedly filmed via multiple angles in the Latvian skies, and were identified clearly as Ukrainian drones of the Lyuti variety, the same drone used to hit Perm, Russia just days ago.
  • The Lyuti design and even sound are unmistakable.
  • One fell on an oil depot in Rezekne, and the other on a Riga-Daugavpils train.
  • But what was most interesting about this was that the Latvian authorities—via Brigadier General Egils Lescinskis—stated they refused to shoot down the drones due to the dangers it may pose to civilians:
  • Drones that flew into Latvia were not shot down due to a lack of certainty that this would not harm the civilian population or infrastructure, said the deputy head of the country’s Joint Staff for Operational Matters, Egils Lesčinskis.
  • However, they ultimately caused damage.
  • In other words, Latvia does not shoot down drones, but waves them right through to Russia territory.
  • This happens to be a very convenient excuse for letting Ukrainian drones transit their territory en route to Russia. The problem is, the drone appeared to target and successfully hit a Latvian oil storage tank, for reasons no one can explain.

Europe

"The ideal balance of interests for Trump 2.0 would be to replace Germany with Poland as its top EU ally for fortifying NATO’s Eastern Flank and not oppose the AfD in the hopes that it’ll come to power and then lead Europe’s rejuvenation.
"Trump recently posted on social media that “The United States is studying and reviewing the possible reduction of troops in Germany”. The Pentagon then confirmed that 5,000 will leave within the next year. This came around a week after Under Secretary of War for Policy Elbridge Colby, considered to be Trump 2.0’s military-strategic mastermind, praised Germany on social media for “taking the leading role” in accelerating the transition to “NATO 3.0”. These mixed signals deserve some elaboration.
"On the one hand, as Politico recently reported, it’s indeed true that “Berlin deepens military ties with Washington while Merz-Trump rift grows”. The preceding hyperlinked article importantly reports that “The U.S. military is placing a colonel in the German army’s Operations Division in an unusually close collaboration.” On the other hand, as was just touched upon, Trump and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz are also indeed in a heated feud over the Third Gulf War that likely influenced Trump’s post....
"conservative President Karol Nawrocki and the opposition with which this nominal independent is allied are doing their utmost to keep the US on board. One means to this end is encouraging more US involvement in the “Three Seas Initiative” as explained here. Nawrocki also presented himself as Europe’s conservative champion at this year’s CPAC, which this analysis here assessed to be motivated in part by wanting to assume this role before the AfD does.
"On that topic, the AfD supports a truly sovereign Europe while PiS (Poland’s conservative “Law & Justice” party with which Nawrocki is allied) supports a Europe in de facto junior partnership with the US, which is why the first called for the full withdrawal of US troops while the second wants more US troops. Closer US-German military ties of the sort that Colby recently praised would thus lead to Trump 2.0 opposing the AfD while weaker ties of the sort that Trump threatened could increase sympathy for it.
"The first expectation is self-explanatory while the second is premised on the National Security Strategy’s support for like-minded conservative-nationalists that want to avert Europe’s “civilizational erasure”. Trump 2.0 must thus decide whether it prefers to implement “NATO 3.0” through Europe’s ruling liberal-globalists or accept compromises on this policy in favor of saving Europe from itself by supporting conservative-nationalists who might oppose continued US hegemony over Europe like the AfD does.
"Where Germany goes, so too goes most of Europe, so the choice that the US makes will either help or harm the AfD. The ideal balance of interests for Trump 2.0 would be to replace Germany with Poland as its top EU ally for fortifying NATO’s Eastern Flank and not oppose the AfD in the hopes that it’ll come to power and then lead Europe’s rejuvenation."

Russia & China

Comment: Oh wow. After a million dead at the hands of America & NATO, you think Russia is ready to form an alliance with the US to counter China's stranglehold on rare earth's, and castrating America's bluster about defending Taiwan?
Russia, like China has a future

Last time I talked about how the West (the US) tends to project its own problems onto China, assuming for example, that there are various “crises” in China, just as there are or have been in the American “market”.

The difference is really between economies that are financialized so success is measured in numbers, increased value of stocks and bonds and economies where success is understood in productivity and improvement of public life.

Such projection is a sad mistake in the case of China. The US falls behind year by year— despite what Google says.

We can also see something similar in the case of Western assessments of the Russian economy. The West simply doesn’t learn.

First, sanctions were supposed to cut Russia off at the ankles.

That failed, as you know.

Then, came the argument that Russia’s was a “war economy” and would collapse under the weight of massive expenditures

But the economy grew. It was the economies of the West that came under pressure. Ukraine was a blackhole sucking cash into an alternate universe.

Then, this year Western analysts leaped for joy to see what looked like a “cooling” of the Russian economy, : “See, we were right”.

No, wrong again.

They would have been right, if Russia were the US of A. Or if their economic predictions were not just wishful thinking.

Russia’s current economic “downturn” as it repetitively called — actually reflects progress: it is what you would expect in an economy that is shifting its orientation, adapting, evolving and developing in new directions.

The Russian government, specifically top officials like Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak and President Vladimir Putin, frame the country’s mild deceleration—where GDP growth projections fell to 0.4%—not as a failure, but as a deliberate, progressive milestone.

How could that be?

Normalization and “Cyclical Correction” Natural Post-Boom Reset:

The slowdown is healthy stabilization after a boom period which has been accompanies by rapid change, the lessons of which must be absorbed. ..

Soft Landing and directed development:

This slowdown is deliberate and controlled, starting with central bank monetary tightening to curb inflation and rein in raw growth in favor of stable and directed development in specific areas, some of which are new and require new goals.

Economic dynamics are cyclical in market economies. After high growth, there is always a correction. Boom and bust would be normal for a Western economy. In Russia, there had been a boom, but the country avoided a “bust”.

Rather. Russia entered a recovery period after intense activity, rather like an athlete needs rest after training hard. This is a normal stage for the economy. It’s like training for sports. After intense training, you need a change of pace, before returning stronger and better.

No good will come from forcing yourself until you drop.

Structural Transformation: The slowdown is categorized as a necessary friction period while shifting the entire economic architecture, transitioning to a “supply-side” economic model, strengthening the social and industrial base.

Domestic Supply: Russia is successfully building an autonomous “supply-side economy.” The cooling phase allows resources to be reallocated to new, internal manufacturing chains.

Import substitution: Russia is no longer dependent on Western sources for many products to support its industry. A good example is the MC21 aircraft which uses no foreign components and has avoided the problems afflicting tits Chinese equivalent, the COMAC C919 which is hobbled by supply chain issues as a result of its reliance on foreign components.

Deliberate Redistribution of Wealth The collapse of the USSR led to massive redistribution of wealth into the hands of nomenklatura who became the “infamous” oligarchs. Putin was able to purge some of them and bring the rest to heel, more or less, since they were necessary to keep the economy functioning.

But the SVO offers opportunities to weed the garden and promote meritocracy.

Labor Structural Shifts: That so-called “downturn” allows a shift in how GDP is apportioned. .

In 2022, corporate profits surged, but today’s economy features a higher share of labor compensation, which amounts to progressive redistribution empowering ordinary workers and offering improvements domestic income.

This has been accompanied by aggressive prosecution of corruption at all levels and in all areas.

Strategic Budget Consolidation Conservative Risk Planning: The downward adjustments in growth forecasts are based on conservative assumptions, such as pricing baseline oil budgets at just $50–59 per barrel. – a fiscal restraint which safeguards state funds – and is not in any way a symptom of an organic economic “crisis”, as some Western analysts suggest.

Pivot to New Global Alliances Geoeconomic Sovereignty: The slowdown as a foundation for long-term, sanctions-proof growth.

It also reflects Russia’s commitment to the BRICS alliance, with a focus on Africa, and Asia, insulating Russia to some degree from the effects of turmoil in Western markets.

Developmental goals Rather than rely on foreign capital as the US does, leveraging the dollar as a reserve currency to get corporations around the world to buy US treasuries and invest in Wall Street, the Russian state injects capital into civilian and domestic infrastructure, rather than dead-weight military consumption.

Military budgets are carefully structured to yield spinoff benefits for the rest of the economy in terms of new technologies—automation, AI, robotics, new materials.

Putting aside the military, the development of Russia’s industrial and infrastructural base is multi-faceted.

Multiple use logistics Immense capital has been diverted to build the “International North–South Transport Corridor” (INSTC) and expand the Eastern Range (Baikal-Amur Mainline and Trans-Siberian Railway).

Long-term economic benefits: This represents a permanent pivot to Asia and the Middle East. While it temporarily cools liquid economic growth, it builds long-term commercial capacity.

Civilian / Military overlap: deep-water ports, and highways expansion will lower domestic business costs for decades, besides providing military supply.

De-centralization and Regional Development Subsidizing the Hinterlands: Russia’s far-flung regional economies benefit from massive budget transfers away from Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Industrial Reshoring: Funding regional factories, specialized economic zones, and local connectivity reduces regional inequality and stimulates domestic competition and growth.

Long-term balance: Short-term economic downturn is natural enough with the state forcibly shifting wealth from financial services to domestic manufacturing hubs, which temporarily reduces short-term output but builds a more balanced internal economy.

Human and Social Capital Demographic Stabilization: Resources are being redirected to human and social capital and . These include education, multi-child family subsidies, low-interest mortgage programs, and veteran pension frameworks. The aim is reverse demographic decline and encourage productivity at the community level.

Labor Retention: Increasing funding for health, welfare, and education preserves and upgrade the domestic workforce, improving productivity, workplace creativity and innovation.

Technological Leadership and Import Substitution National Projects The Russian state funds “Technological Leadership Projects” in fields like domestic IT, AI, new materials, digitaliztion, civil aviation, medicine, and precision engineering.

Long-Term ROI heavy capital expenditure hurts a nation’s wallet in the short term and GDP growth rates. However, it generates an immense return on investment (ROI) once the results begin to bear fruit, which often takes some time, as was the case with FDR’s development programs, whose benefits took more than a decade to be realized.

FDR was able to leverage WWII to achieve maximum results. Putin is leveraging the SVO and the hybrid war with the West.

That said, you will find that the MSM contradicts almost everything I have said. They continue to insist Russia is failing.

The Defense Minister was killed and the intelligence chief critically injured... the Malian Armed Forces (FAMA) continued to resist the insurgents....His other comments saw him accuse Ukraine and unnamed countries, likely a reference to the US, France, and Algeria, of providing logistical support to insurgents...."
Comment: The advantage for the US, Ukraine, France, et al in providing logistical support to terrorist groups (ISIS, Azov Battalion, MEK, etc) is that terrorist proxies are not bound to the "humane rules of war" in an asymmetrical, hybrid war.

Yep. America is on its way to being "the leading power in the world for the foreseeable future" - especially with Trump's impeachment and the Democrats in control.

Netanyahu's optimistic speech

Under President Trump's visionary leadership, America and Israel are acting together in Iran with great determination and unprecedented strength. Operation Rising Line is designed to remove the existential threats posed by the Ayatollah regime, the regime that has waged war against America and Israel and the people of Iran for 47 years. It chants death to America, death to Israel, and it delivers death to its own people. Our goals are three. One, removing the nuclear threat. Second, removing the ballistic missile threat and removing both of these threats before they're buried deep underground and become immune from aerial attack. And third, this means creating the conditions for the Iranian people to grasp their freedom, to control their destiny. Today, the Ayattollah regime is not only attacking America, not only attacking Israel, not only attacking the Iranian people, it is attacking, it is attacking the entire Middle East and beyond. They've attacked civilians and Americans and American assets in Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Oman, and they've even even attacked through their proxies Cyprus in Europe.

We've warned for decades that their ballistic missile program would be used to attack these targets far and wide. And if they're not stopped, that's just the beginning.

The death cult in Iran is trying to blackmail the world by closing a key international maritime route, the straits of Homuz. It won't work. Israel is helping in its own way and intel and other means the American effort to open the straits of Hormuz.

But I want to ask you to imagine how the Ayatollah regime would be able to blackmail the entire world if they had ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads. Just imagine what they would do. Look at what they're doing now and imagine what they would do if they had ballistic missiles, international range ballistic missiles, and nuclear tipped warheads. Just imagine what a great threat that would be.

So today, Israel and the United States are protecting America, Israel, the entire Middle East. But I venture to say the entire world. Despite the fake news that is unfortunately being spread since the start of the war 20 days ago, we are winning and Iran is being decimated.

Iran's missile and drone arsenal is being massively degraded and will be destroyed. Hundreds of their launchers have been destroyed. Their stockpiles of missiles are being hit hard and so are the industries that produce them. That's important. In Rising Lion, we destroyed missiles and we destroyed a lot of the nuclear infrastructure. But what we're destroying now are the factories that produce the components to make these missiles and to make the nuclear weapons that they're trying to produce. We're wiping out their industrial race in a way that we didn't do before. Iran's air defenses have been rendered useless. Their navy is lying at the bottom of the sea. Today, we hit the other part of their navy in the Caspian Sea. Their air force is nearly destroyed. Iran's command and control structure is in utter chaos. And I can tell you that there's still more work to do, and we're going to do it.

And I want to close these opening remarks with one other fake news. And that is that Israel somehow dragged the US into a conflict with Iran. Does anyone really think that someone can tell President Trump what to do? Come on. President Trump always makes his decisions on what he thinks is good for America. And may I add, I think what is also good for future generations. In this case, those interests are absolutely clear and so is the clarity of our achievements.

Together in close coordination with President Trump, the close coordination between America and Israel, our militaries, our intelligence services, we're achieving goals in lightning speed.

But I want to say another word. It's been said that for 40 years I've been saying that Iran is a danger to Israel and a danger to the world. That is true. You know who else said that? President Trump. 47 years ago when the Iranian thugs took over the American embassy. He said how dangerous this regime is. In his first term in office, he didn't need any convincing. He said the Iranian nuclear deal was the worst deal that he'd ever seen and he walked out of it.

Right before his second term before he was reelected, I went to see him in Mar-a-Lago. The first thing he said to me was, "Bibi, we've got to make sure that Iran doesn't have nuclear weapons." He said that to me. I didn't say it to him. He didn't need any convincing there either. Now, why did he say that? Because for more than four decades, this regime, as I said in the beginning of my remarks, is chanting 'Death to Israel, Death to America.' But they say Israel is only the small Satan[sic] standing in their way. The great Satan[sic] is the United States of America.

And these ideological fanatics, these lunatics define their own destruction.

Their reason for being is wiping out Western civilization and America that leads it. They have claimed the lives. They've maimed and wounded thousands of Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan. They killed the American Marines in Beirut. They bombed your embassies. They tried to assassinate the American president, Donald Trump, not once, but twice.

Now they blackmail for oil.

Just imagine what they would do, what they're capable of doing if these lunatics had nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them to every American city and every European city and everywhere around the globe. This is a danger for the entire world. It's certainly a danger for Israel. It's certainly a danger for America. We see eye to eye on that. President Trump and I, Israel and America. But I think if people are honest, if leaders are honest, they would understand that we're not only fighting their our fight, we're fighting their fight. I speak to dozens of world leaders. Dozens. They all know that. And privately, they all say that. They say that privately, but I say it publicly.

The world owes a debt of deep indebtedness. deep indebtedness to President Trump for leading this effort to safeguard our future.

Here is what the best prediction market for geopolitics Metaculus.com says:

Putting it all together: Metaculus’ implied timeline Based on the questions you pasted, the forecasting community is signaling:

🟥 War ends in early 2026 → Very unlikely (12.5% ceasefire probability)

🟧 War ends in late 2026 → Possible but not favored (Conflict intensity + US posture suggests longer)

🟨 War ends in 2027 → Most likely window (Regime stability forecasts + nuclear deal timeline)

🟩 War ends in 2028 → Also plausible (If negotiations drag)

🟦 War continues into 2029 → Low probability (Nuclear deal forecast implies resolution before then) Conservative (talk) 18:30, March 19, 2026 (EDT)

Terrorist Designation of the Sudanese Muslim Brotherhood. Press Statement. Marco Rubio, Secretary of State. March 9, 2026


Today, the Department of State is designating the Sudanese Muslim Brotherhood as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist and intends to designate the group as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, effective March 16, 2026.

The Sudanese Muslim Brotherhood uses unrestrained violence against civilians to undermine efforts to resolve the conflict in Sudan and advance its violent Islamist ideology. Its fighters, many receiving training and other support from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), have conducted mass executions of civilians. The Sudanese Muslim Brotherhood’s al-Baraa Bin Malik Brigade was designated pursuant to E.O. 14098 in September 2025 for its role in Sudan’s brutal war.

As the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, the Iranian regime has financed and directed malign activities globally through its IRGC. The United States will use all available tools to deprive the Iranian regime and Muslim Brotherhood chapters of the resources to engage in or support terrorism.

“The Sudanese Muslim Brotherhood uses unrestrained violence against civilians to undermine efforts to resolve the conflict in Sudan and advance its violent Islamist ideology ,” he said.

‘20,000 Fighters, mass executions’.

According to an accompanying statement by the US State Department, the SMB comprising the Sudanese Islamic Movement and its armed wing, the El Baraa Ibn Malik Brigade (BBMB), has deployed more than 20,000 fighters in the war, many trained and supported by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

The State Department added that BBMB fighters have conducted mass executions of civilians in captured areas, targeting people on the basis of race ethnicity, or suspected opposition links. Washington had previously sanctioned the brigade in September 2025. ‘Sanctions and Iranian involvement’...

Dems. Anti-Trump leads to anti-Bibi - (Face the Nation 4.19.26)

TDS???

Transcript: Amos Hochstein on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan," April 19, 2026

MARGARET BRENNAN: I want to ask you, as a Democrat, there was this extraordinary vote this past week in the Senate. Forty Senate Democrats tried to block a U.S. weapons sale to Israel, and that adds to this growing rift we have seen between your party and Benjamin Netanyahu. Do you think Democrats are going to come to regret this break in the alliance?

HOCHSTEIN: So I hope that it's not a break in the alliance. I think this, what it really demonstrates is for the last several years, Prime Minister Netanyahu has sacrificed Israel's interest in the United States. The most important asset the Israel has is not its military or its intelligence. It's the relation, it's the special relationship with the United States that has been bipartisan for so many decades. He has destroyed that because he has decided to become not just part of the Republican Party, but he's decided to become just an appendage of Donald Trump. And so every Democrat now sees, if you want to be Trump, great, if we're anti-Trump, then by de facto, we are against you. I think this is a lot to do with Bibi Netanyahu and his extremist right-wing government, and not to do with Israel. Look, you have half of Israel is voting against Bibi. So I think this- Democrats should be aligning with Israel, not with Bibi.

TUCKER BAILS, LATINOS BOLT — AND A BIDEN INSIDER ADMITS HE’D HAVE BOMBED IRAN FOR BIBI TOO.

Amos Hochstein, a senior energy adviser in the Biden State Department, revealed that the Biden administration had already modeled the very same kinds of strikes now being carried out. These were the same types of actions the UN had previously condemned as a “dangerous escalation.” Hochstein went further, admitting the administration may have “had” to carry them out—even though last summer’s war was launched by Israel and did not involve the U.S. at that stage.

“I was supportive of President Trump joining in, in June, to take the strikes that we had thought internally in the Biden administration we may have to take if there was a second term,” Hochstein said.

Read that again.

It doesn’t matter who sits in the Oval Office — empire does what empire does. If anything, Trump at least has the temerity to be openly cruel, instead of gaslighting the public the way Joe Biden and his handpicked clown Kamala Harris did with their impassioned speeches about how “terrible” Israel was being and how “offensive” it all was. That’s why the concept of the “evil of two lessers” matters. I’ve written before about whether Kamala was really the lesser evil — but of course, that’s the point. They’re both part of the same machine, and the machine itself is the problem.

One thing is clear: this is about empire....

On the 619,000 Syrians dead 2013-2024, are you denying the contributing factor main rivalry in Islam, Shiite (Assad Alewite stream of Shiite allied with Iran/Hezbollah all killers in Syria) Sunni?

“

...and I had this little debate at my kitchen table with my husband this week, and I was saying Trump is historically unpopular. And my husband actually pointed out and was accurate in the fact that he's historically unpopular for this point in his second term, but presidents have been more unpopular. George W. Bush, Harry Truman, Nixon, George HW Bush, all got into the 20s. Trump's at about 37... So on the one hand, I think the argument that the MAGA base is fleeing in droves is a little overstated. But on the flip side, 37% is not winning you anything.

After whacking the Ayatollah, Iran has no choice but to build a nuclear bomb for deterrence sake.

LOL Even anti-Trump TheView slam 'racist' Tucker after "apology" He's all about money and clicks

Also reminding his promotion of N. Fuentes and D. Cooper.

From TheView today:

Whoopi Goldberg:

This will come as interesting surprise to everyone. Do you know who just lost one of his biggest supporters over the ongoing war in Iran? Far-right commentator Tucker Carlson says he regrets ever helping to put you-know-who in the White House.

Take a look. You and I and everyone else who supported him, you wrote speeches for him, I campaigned for him. I mean, we're implicated in this, for sure.

Yes. It's not enough to say, well, I changed my mind, or like, oh, this is bad, I'm out. It's like in very small ways, but in real ways, you and me and millions of people like us are the reason this is happening right now.

Yes. So I do think it's like a moment to wrestle with our own consciences. You know, we'll be tormented by it for a long time.

I will be. And I want to say I'm sorry for misleading people. It was not intentional.

Oh. please. Whatever.

S. Hostin:

I don't believe him. He's not getting a bear hug from me. I don't think, you know, the world's on fire, and you can't just say, oopsies.

And the reason that I don't believe him is that remember when Fox News parted ways with him because of a $787 million settlement over Dominion, over those voting machines? Remember that whole scandal? Well, during that litigation in 2021, he texted someone and said that he hated Trump passionately.

And then, two years later, he said, I'm voting for Trump. And then, in 2024, he endorsed him for president. So now, all of a sudden, 2021, you hated him, and now all of a sudden, you want me to forgive you for this situation?

No thank you, Tucker Carlson.

J. Behar:

You know Sonny, no thank you. know, again, you have to cut him some slack.

He has what they call liar's remorse. And also, the January 6th attack- He's a little tired today, y'all. You know the January, remember the January 6th attack?

He called them tourists. Yes he did. And he described them as meek and orderly.

They were violent, if you remember it. was not a Buddhist monk convention, okay? Right.

They were not meek and orderly. So he has lied about everything. Consistently.

He needs to just make a whole list of all the things that he got wrong and not just he's, sorry. I wanna hear every single thing he said.

S. Haines:

Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly will say anything they have to, any point in the day for clicks and money and it does not matter what they're saying.

Literally, Tucker recently hosted white nationalist Nick Fuentes and pushed back like zero times almost on really problematic views. He also interviewed Russian President Putin, let him spread propaganda and did not push back. He interviewed podcaster Darryl Cooper, allowing claims that Nazis lacked intent in the Holocaust. Tucker Carlson will literally do say anything for money, for clicks, for power.

That man just needs to disappear.

  • Applause*

A. Farah:

Yep. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Listen, there's genuine, I learned something, some remorse. I wanna kind of figure out what I was misled by. I put Marjorie Taylor Greene in that category, even though I still have a lot of questions for her.

Tucker Carlson, who I kind of knew back in the day when he once wanted to be more like a George Will, like a thinking man's conservative, he then turned into something that I would say is vile. I would say that it's dangerous. He traffics in antisemitism, in open racism.

If you listen to clips, conspiracy theories left and right, and I don't think this is a true about face. He's like, wow, I really made a mistake on Donald Trump. No way. People, by the way, who have criticized Trump and learned and realized I shouldn't have been with him. I think it's about clicks and money. Unlike the mainstream media where are certain levels of standards, there's legal, there's facts. He couldn't hack it the mainstream media. He goes where the clicks go.


Others:

Yeah, he goes where the clicks go.

A. Farah:

And by the way, he is extraordinarily powerful. A lot of people listen to him. That doesn't mean he's right or[in] what he says.

But this pathological need for relevancy is like a psychological disorder that they get off the stage and they can't be in the world. They're often escorted off the stage. But they can't be in the world like a regular person.

And by the way, this comes on the heels, sorry, I just wanna say. That's all right, baby. Of Donald Trump attacking him.

So just earlier, just a few earlier this month, he basically said, like, I don't care about Tucker, I don't like him, I'm not bringing him back to the White House, I'm paraphrasing, and then he turns on him.

W. Goldberg:

Yeah. Well, you know, look, and anybody, who can't explain what they mean, I wanted him to explain the great replacement theory.

Yeah, that would have been good. Because I wanted to understand, so you're living next to your white neighbors, right? And you've had, you know, you're barbecuing, you're hanging out, you're doing stuff.

You go bed, you say goodnight, you say goodnight. You wake up the next day and there's black people living next door saying they are the people who were your neighbors. Is that how that works?

Yeah, I don't know. Because how, if so many people were being replaced, how come nobody knew? Yeah, I don't know.

Why didn't anybody report it? White folks missing. A lot of that, a lot of that.

what, and so.

S. Hostin: Did Tucker Carlson, was he part of this, putting out the Great Replacement period? Yes, he was.

W. Goldberg: Yes, he was. Well, and a lot of that hinges on this notion that's not based in fact, that there's this extremely widespread voter fraud that's being committed. That's usually what it goes back to.

Well, then there's that too, but you keep it. Again, facts matter. Yeah, facts do matter.

And it clicks on the internet shouldn't be what matters. And so stuff like that, you know, once he started with that, I couldn't talk to him because he couldn't explain it. you can't explain it to me, I'm not listening to your ass.

Islamic fascist Republic of Iran was at "peace" with US since 1979?

Iran began its anti-US war when taking hostages. They never ceased anti US activities. Since 1979, the Iranian regime and its proxies have been responsible for the deaths of well over 1,000 American soldiers and civilians, according to estimates cited in 2026.

While some figures focus strictly on military combat fatalities, others include citizens killed in terrorist attacks or kidnapped by Iranian-backed groups. Major Incidents & High-Fatality Events (1979–2026).

Iraq War (2003–2011): The U.S. Department of Defense has identified at least 603 U.S. service member deaths in Iraq attributable to Iran-backed militant groups. These deaths resulted from explosively formed penetrators (EFPs), improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and rocket attacks.

Beirut Barracks Bombing (1983): Hezbollah, a Lebanese group backed by Iran, bombed the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut, Lebanon, killing 241 American personnel.

Khobar Towers Bombing (1996): Iran-backed Hezbollah Al-Hijaz carried out a truck bombing in Saudi Arabia, killing 19 U.S. Airmen.

October 7 Attacks (2023): Iran-backed Hamas terrorists killed 46 American citizens, according to reports.

Other Attacks: Numerous other deaths have occurred, including: 2001–2020: Attacks on U.S. forces in Afghanistan, with Iran-backed proxies (including aiding the Taliban) resulting in dozens of deaths. 2019/2023: Deaths of American contractors in Iraq/Syria by Iranian proxies. 2026 Iran War: As of early April 2026, reports indicated at least 13 U.S. service members were killed in hostile actions related to increased conflict with Iran.

Total Estimates. Various analysts and reports have placed the total number of American deaths linked to Iran and its proxies—including service members, civilians, and government personnel—at over 1,000. A report reviewing the history up to early 2026 estimated "over 900 Americans" had been killed in incidents directly linked to Iran, not including all potential victims in Afghanistan or during the 2026 conflict escalation.

Here's where Mike Huckabee and Ted Cruz got it wrong in their Tucker interviews: in the Christian interpretation of the Bible, God's promise to Israel was conditional. And if Israel disobeyed, they would be tossed out of the land. Disobedience is why the Jews lost their sovereignty, and were under Roman occupation at the time of Christ. Jesus' parting words were. "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."
Israel was disbursed among the nations because they broke their end of the covenant with God; while God's offer remains open to the Jews, it means they have to repent & be baptized (i.e. accept Christ as their messiah) to be restored to the covenant. That is the Christian interpretation. Last I heard, Netanyahu, Smotrich and Gvir are not Christians. Hence, they have no claim to the land, per God. RobSAbnormal is fine.

David T. Pyne:
US Gulf allies reacted angrily with both Saudi Arabia and Kuwait suspending US military access to their bases, airspace, and overflight rights in furtherance of ‘Project Freedom’ due to the fact they feared they would incur military retaliation by the new regional hegemon of the Persian Gulf which is the Islamic Republic of Iran. This forced President Trump to suspend ‘Project Freedom’ just one day after it had begun and mere hours after Hegseth and Rubio were pushed out by the administration to hype up its supposed success. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman blocked the US from flying aircraft out of Prince Sultan Airbase or through Saudi airspace, completely grounding the operation. Bin Salman was “furious” after Trump announced Project Freedom on Truth Social without notifying them. Qatar and Oman were also blindsided, with Trump only contacting them after the operation began. A direct call between Trump and the Crown Prince failed to resolve the situation. Trump may have also suspended out of concern that Iran could resume its drone and missile strikes on US Navy destroyers that could cause dozens if not hundreds of casualties to US military personnel.

The loss of the use of our Saudi and Kuwaiti air bases on Tuesday essentially eliminated the US air defense umbrella protecting ships transiting the Strait forcing Trump to cancel Project Freedom after just one day in yet another major humiliation for President Trump and the US. Trump decided to invent the fake news story that he was suspending the operation because the US and Iran were making great progress in negotiations when in fact, we have made no progress in negotiations since Trump abandoned peace talks on April 11th and refused to restart them. Fox News host and Trump sycophant Jesse Watters was caught by surprise starting his show by claiming Project Freedom would bring us victory in Trump’s war over Iran an hour and a half after Trump posted on Truth Social that he had cancelled the operation. Watters then claimed it must have been so successful that it forced Iran to capitulate to US maximalist peace terms after a single day.

Thus, Iran has largely succeeded in their objective to eject the US military from the Gulf region and its likely that its dominance over the US in the region will end up being permanent underscoring the scale of America’s strategic defeat in Trump’s foolish war against Iran. [49]

One Month in NYC. 0 Anti-Muslim Hate Crimes. 30 Anti-Jewish Hate Crimes. Islamophobia is a lie. May 6, 2026. By Daniel Greenfield.

UK elections

There is some question now if anti-globalism can be considered a "conservative win" in Conservapedia after years and years of User:Conservative's pro-globalist trolling, despite the massive loss of British liberals in recent elections. RobSAbnormal is fine. Stupid isn't. 13:37, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

Don't know about term "globalist," in this election but Right-wing Farrage is up, noisy geeenparty has just one seat, in Hackney. LaMarina (talk) 12:05, May 10, 2026 (EDT)
This is a pretty good take on the situation:
If you want to define "right wing" and "conservative" as ignorant and stupid, as certain Conservapedia Administrators do, then you can headline "UK Labour Party loses in rightwing conservative shift".
"So what that leaves England with (Scotland and Wales being somewhat different) is a rotting two and a half party system which does not allow any other broad based party to rise. The result is inevitable – a horrible beast like Reform which can attract disenchanted and low information voters and which doesn’t care if it lets them down. Reform itself is less a far right organisation than an open house for every grifter, crackpot and oddball have a go at getting themselves on the TV (this used to be the job of the Lib Dems). In some respects, England is lucky that it doesn’t have a ‘real’ far right party led by people who know what they are doing, as the situation would be ripe for one to grab control."

Farage: "Labour are being wiped out by Reform in many of their most traditional areas, and what you’re going to see later on today is the Conservative Party being wiped out in their heartlands".
The Federalist: [53]
the election results leave little doubt what polls have consistently shown: Britons are rejecting the establishment parties, Labour and Conservatives, in favor of upstart parties like Reform, the Green Party, Liberal Democrats — as well as a growing number of independent Islamopopulist politicians. Labour is likely facing a wipeout in the 2028 parliamentary elections, and Reform, by far the most popular party in Britain, might well win an outright majority.

It would be easy to look at these results and conclude that they amount to a resounding rebuke of globalist left-wing politics embodied by leaders like Starmer and other fixtures of the European establishment, and that a populist victory by Farage and Reform will rescue Britain and pull her out of what seems to be the impending collapse of civil society.

But that’s the wrong lesson to take away. What’s happening in Britain is the political expression of a loss of social cohesion and the first signs of brewing civil conflict along ethnic nationalist and post-nationalist lines. Broadly speaking, the rejection of the establishment parties by British voters signals a deeper loss of confidence in the political process in Britain and the legitimacy of the British political elite.

On a more granular level, the elections produced major Reform gains in working-class areas of northern Britain and the Midlands. Voters in these places rejected the establishment parties responsible for mass immigration and the demographic and cultural upheaval that forced multiculturalism has brought to Britain in a relatively short period of time. Stated bluntly, disaffected ethnic English voters are turning to Reform as a vehicle for their discontent. This isn’t just happening in rural and suburban areas that once voted Conservative, but also in post-industrial cities that were once Labour strongholds.

Conclusion: A rejection of Leftism that has dominated for 80 years, and that the so-called "right-wing commiserative" parties like the UK Tory party or the American Republican party have upheld and protected for 80 years, is not a "conservative" win.

Trump brokers 3-day ceasefire until May 11.

I think now we know why Putin initiated a 90-minute phone call with Trump. Trump posted on Truth Social that he brokered a 3-day ceasefire extending from May 9 to May 11, confirmed by the Russian newspaper of record TASS. In days prior, things heated up quickly with Zelensky threatening to attack one million civilians marching in the streets of Moscow in the Immortal Regiment, with the Russian Foreign Ministry officially warning all embassies and civilians to evacuate the Kyiv government sector because of an inevitable Oreshnik retaliatory decapitation strike (heck, the Russians could have even staged a false flag drone attack on Moscow and killed a few civilians to justify an instantaneous retaliatory strike). But Putin doesn't want to destroy artifacts of Kievan Rus' in Ukraine, so he spared Zelensky the retaliatory strike. Believe it or not, this is the way things are sometimes done. Putin now owes Trump a favor. RobSAbnormal is fine. Stupid isn't. 19:14, May 9, 2026 (EDT)

An actual "America First" president would've fired Gorka by this point. Or better yet, never hired him in the first place. But it's clear as crystal that Trump has abandoned "America First", assuming ever was that to begin with. Either way, he is really playing with fire by allowing Gorka to go there.--Geopolitician (talk) 15:45, May 14, 2026 (EDT)
On a related note, Daniel L. McAdams, the right-hand man of Ron Paul and someone who apparently knew Gorka while living in Budapest in the '90s, has this to say about him. Gorka is a complete fraud. While commonly identified as a nationalist, a deconstruction of Gorka's positions reveals that at heart he is actually an extreme neocon. In fact, he may be the most extreme neocon in the entire administration, even moreso than Marco Rubio.[1][2] The "Natcon" strain of nationalism/conservatism frequently promoted by Gorka and like-minded Hungarians is also a complete fraud, and Orban getting cozy with those people is one of the reasons he was ousted last month. That decision was a dealbreaker for many people who otherwise would've voted Fidesz, as they do not take kindly to their foreign policy being dictated from the outside by followers of an ideology which isn't even European in origin much less Hungarian.[3]--Geopolitician (talk) 15:45, May 14, 2026 (EDT)

This kind of principled/measured response makes Cory Booker more of a threat to GOP than loca AOC

From Meet the Press , Cory Booker today May 10, 2026.

WELKER: You joined a record number of Democrats, 40 senators, who recently voted against sending more arms to Israel. A similar effort only got 15 Democratic votes, for example. Are you now opposed to the United States sending arms to Israel going forward?

BOOKER: Let's be clear. I'm opposed to going into a reckless war that has made the United States and other Arab allies less safe. I will not support arms to the United States and Israel — anything that will endanger our security or Israel. I support our military being the strongest in the world. I support Israel having a military edge and offering deterrence. In the context of this war, I will not support more military armaments to conduct what I think is a disaster that's endangering American lives, Israeli lives, and, as we see in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, our regional allies as well.

WELKER: Just to be very clear, you would approve arms sales to Israel in a future entanglement if you saw that was militarily necessary?

BOOKER I will continue to support that. I will not support this kind of war, and we have a nation now that's looking at our disastrous president, a disastrous leader of Israel, who in this war are hurting our nation, their nation, and that region. I cannot support this war effort.

Eichmann on trial in Israel

The importance of the Eichmann trial can't be overstated. It was probably the first time the details of the Holocaust were presented to a mass audience and younger generation after 17 years by an older generation that wanted to forget about WWII and was busy rehabilitating the Nazis into NATO to combat the Russian boogeyman, which was Hitler's program in the first place.

Is this the REAL reason we're headed for World War III?

This video makes a compelling argument that Adolf Hitler started World War II in 1939 because he had to, not because he wanted to. If things had gone according to plan, Hitler would've waited until around 1942 before starting the war on ideological grounds. But things did not go according to plan. Hitler built his war machine too quickly, and in the process accumulated an amount of (carefully hidden) debt which would've been unsustainable unless he went to war earlier than planned. As by doing so, he could secure the foreign exchange reserves of conquered territories and use those to buy more time for the German economy. The alternative would've economic collapse, followed by regime collapse and probably civil war.

With that in mind, we must consider the possibility that Trump followed this playbook with Venezuela and Iran, and likely will do so again with Cuba. Followed by North Korea, Russia, and China, who along with those three countries were listed as peacetime "Foreign Adversaries" by the Biden regime and remain listed as such to this day. Is that it? Are we really going to war with those countries, for all reasons, to keep the "endless debt" cycle going? The American people be damned, it's Big Government which must be protected? And how long has this been the plan? I seriously doubt Trump was the one who concluded this to be the necessary course of action. This sounds like something which was cooked up by a prior regime, and Trump is going along with it because he sees Big Government being kept alive as a necessary evil to "Make America Great Again." Whatever that means, these days.--Geopolitician (talk) 22:55, May 12, 2026 (EDT)

Actually, 1938 and the Sudeten Crisis was a more optimum time for Germany to go to war - before the UK and others were prepared for war. It was no secret Hitler was intent on tearing up the Versailles Treaty by 1935 with the re-occupation of the Rhineland, and that Hitler felt cheated out of his kinetic war in 1938 with the policy of appeasement. The longer he waited, the weaker Germany became (as the video states) and the more prepared, or "stronger" Britain & the United States became.
As to contemporary parallels, it's no secret Trump and other deep staters have been preparing for a Long War since last year when Trump first proposed a $1.5 Trillion Dept. of War budget. RobSAbnormal is fine. Stupid isn't. 14:07, May 13, 2026 (EDT)

80 years ago: "The oil, with which the Arab countries are endowed, covers a multitude of sins"

"The Arabs of the Middle East" (1945)

[55]

The Jewish Voice Pictorial. vols. 7-10. (1944-7). United States: Cleveland, Ohio, p.8

The Arabs of the Middle East.

(1945).

THE Arabs of the Near East have quite unexpectedly been brought into the foreground by the end of the Second World War in Europe. In contract with the attitude of America, England and others towards the Jews, who threw themselves, body and soul, into the struggle against Hitler's Germany and Mussolini's Italy and contributed so very much towards winning the war in the Near East, is the suddenly manifested great friendship for the Arabs by these countries. England particularly has chosen to forget that the overwhelming majority of the Arabs till almost the last moment of the war befriended the Axis. From Egypt whose sympathies with the fascist regimes of Germany and Italy were no secret, all the way to Persia, the Arabs were all out antagonistic towards the United Nations. "Friendship" of the Arabs of Iraq and Persia was won by the Allied Nations at the point of a gun. Palestinian Arabs were outspokenly in favor of a Hitler victory and in neighboring Syria it was even worse. - Nothwithstanding these facts, which even the Arabs would not venture to deny, the great powers afforded Arab rulers an opportunity to hop on the bandwagon at practically the last moment, to pose as friends of the United Nations by forthwith declaring a paper war on the Axis, thus assuring themselves a place at the Conference of the United Nations in San Francisco, where they were received with open arms and treated with favoritism and flattery bordering on the ridiculous. The oil, with which the Arab countries are endowed, covers a multitude of sins.

Oil appears to nollify for England and America even the stab wounds which were inflicted in the back of the Democracies only yesterday by the Arabs. The oil of Arabia casts into oblivion the tragic Jewish sacrifices on all fronts.. Telling (talk)

It should be remembered Ibn Saud made a verbal agreement with British & American oil interests not to sell oil to Germany, and British control of Gibraltar made it virtually impossible to sell to Germany. RobSAbnormal is fine. Stupid isn't. 01:07, May 13, 2026 (EDT)
Telling, this history is quite telling... To RobS, was that agreement before the June/1939 sending his emissary Alhud to meet Hitler? Dianne3000 (talk) 10:18, May 13, 2026 (EDT)
It was not a formal government-to-government agreement on paper, but rather through the influence of ARAMCO (Arabian American Oil Co) partnership which held the sole concession and pumped the oil, the US limited sales to Germany. That, and the blockade through Suez and Gibraltar made sales to Germany impossible. RobSAbnormal is fine. Stupid isn't. 10:30, May 13, 2026 (EDT)

Another Islamo "socialist" hypocrite

UK Green Party councillor Mohammad Baghdadi Khan posts video of himself cruising around in gas-guzzling Lamborghini. Mohammad Baghdadi Khan responded to criticism online by writing, "Who said councillors can’t drive cars like this?" A newly elected Green councillor in Bolton has posted video footage of himself driving a Lamborghini shortly after winning a seat in last week’s local elections. Mohammad Baghdadi Khan, also known as Baggy Khan, shared the video online following his victory in the Halliwell ward of Bolton, Greater Manchester, reports the Daily Mail. The footage shows Khan behind the wheel of a Lamborghini Huracan Spyder, a model that can cost up to £270,000. The clip also includes scenes from his election win. Reports indicate the Lamborghini footage appears to have been recorded at a 2023 wedding, where several supercars were used to transport guests. [57]LaMarina (talk) 16:55, May 13, 2026 (EDT)
