Germany Energy Minister Katherina Reiche: The phase-out of nuclear power was a huge mistake — a huge mistake. We now miss that energy. So, the only way to secure supply is gas.

Above St. Petersburg stretches a 230-kilometer band of thick black smoke, visible from space — the largest oil transshipment terminal on the Baltic is burning. A year and a half of a complete ban on fuel and diesel exports. Across the border, it’s a world of its own. Vendors are sharing Wi-Fi from their phones so people in line can pay for sausage, while in Moscow there’s no network even to access a paid restroom. Planes circle above Moscow for three days and above St. Petersburg for two because the “Carpet” emergency plan is constantly active. Dear Russians have shut down YouTube and Telegram for themselves. Either you install their clumsy military messenger “Max,” or you go into assault units. And assault troops last exactly five days — not my words, but something openly lamented even by pro-war supporters. In Siberia, a dangerous epidemic is spreading — a disease contagious to humans and hard to treat. Livestock is being quietly slaughtered to save the skins and profits of large agricultural holdings, while trying not to explain anything to the population. In response, people traditionally fall to their knees at monuments to their grandfathers and howl, “Putin, help.” But Putin won’t help — he wants to live to 150. The Chinese squint slyly, wink kindly, and say, “Of course you will, grandpa.” Meanwhile, in the historic center of Lviv, a drone strike lands — and people in Kharkiv ask melancholically: “What do you mean? Only one?” In Kramatorsk they reasonably note that as soon as Iran started getting hit, there were suddenly far fewer “Shahed” drones in the sky. At the same time, one corps of Russian troops is being wiped out irreversibly, and another is being ground down to zero for the sake of 7–10 kilometers. It’s pure Passchendaele — in color. Globally, the world feels completely warped. Trump wants a Nobel Prize, Greenland, and Cuba, and seriously claims that the regime in Iran has already been removed because everyone there has supposedly died — and the police chief apparently died twice. In Middle Eastern countries, several of our groups are shooting down UAVs — the count is in the dozens — and princes are offering thoroughbred stallions as payment if the technology is set up for them. The war has fully entered cyberpunk. Drones deliver hot pizza to positions, take prisoners, evacuate the wounded under a hail of drops, and toss anti-tank mines onto the roofs of enemy bunkers. Copters supply isolated infantry positions for months, essentially under full encirclement, while in our artillery brigades crews are already hauling shells in exoskeletons. A storm of glide bombs, pilots exhausted by months of fighting while also acting as gunners, cavalry-style assaults under waves of FPV drones, and people spending three months straight on positions. A fierce, terrifying, bloody grind. Oh mighty Lord of mighty men — why did you cast us as extras in William Keith’s “The Forever War” of combat robots?

US Potential Land Operations Into Iran Options: Option Number 1- Freeze Iranian Economy and force capitulation in negotiations, via controlling the Kharg Island responsible for 90 percent of oil exports, likely via a paratrooper landing as the strait would be highly contested and hard to get amphibious landing ships in. Option number 2- Seizure of key Islands immediately around the strait of Hormuz, and also coastal positions close to the strait, potential creation of several kilometre buffer zone. Potentially could be in coordination with Option 1. This would involve the Seizure of key islands, Qeshm Island Abu Musa & the Tunbs Islands which immediately surround the strait and the seizure of key port areas Bandar Abbas coastline and Jask coastal zone to prevent retaliatory anti ship of naval drone fires at tankers. This operation could likely be done with a coordination of Marine naval landings and heavy AirPower support. Option number 3-Special forces raid into Northern Iran targeted at neutralising and capturing key nuclear components and enrichment materials to several degrade programme. This would be done likely via a helicopter raid and small special forces deployments, potentially backed by a quick reaction paratrooper force. Nuclear sites that would be targets include Natanz, Fordow, Isfahan, Parchin-Taleghan 2. Due to many of these facilities being underground this would likely be a highly dangerous and unlikely operation. Troops potentially available: 7500 marines from 31st 11th expeditionary and 11 boxer amphibious group, 3000 paratroopers from 82nd airborne unknown deployments from 75th delta rangers and 160th SOAR Seals:

In 1480 viel een Ottomaans leger (18.000 man, onder Gedik Ahmed Pasha) de Zuid-Italiaanse stad Otranto aan. Na 15 dagen beleg werd de stad ingenomen. De overlevende mannen (boven de 15) kregen een ultimatum: bekeren tot de islam of sterven. Ongeveer 800 weigerden. Ze werden naar de heuvel buiten de stad gevoerd (nu de Heuvel der Martelaren). Daar werden ze één voor één onthoofd. De eerste was kleermaker Antonio Primaldo, die riep: “Nu is het tijd om voor onze zielen te vechten voor de Heer.” De aartsbisschop werd voor het altaar van de kathedraal onthoofd. Andere priesters werden doormidden gezaagd. Vrouwen en kinderen werden als slaven verkocht of vermoord. Totaal: tienduizenden doden en duizenden in slavernij. Dit was geen “normale” oorlog maar een religieus gemotiveerde slachting van weerloze christenen die weigerden hun geloof af te zweren. Na de herovering in 1481 werden de lichamen (die maandenlang onbegraven op de heuvel hadden gelegen) verzameld en naar de kathedraal gebracht. In de Cappella dei Martiri staan vandaag de dag glazen vitrines vol met hun echte schedels – rij na rij, honderden stuks. Een stukje geschiedenis dat zelden in de schoolboeken staat… Anno 2026? Kerken organiseren vrijwillig iftars wereldwijd.. Hebben die 800 martelaren hiervoor geleden? Voor kerken die nu vrijwillig weggeven wat zij met hun bloed verdedigden?
