MAGA man looking to call ICE at the airport—on Iraqi soccer fans traveling for the World Cup. He runs into crowd and tears up the homemade banner that fans were holding—written in Arabic and Spanish. "You're in America!" he yells. "You don't come to America and do that!" Traveling to support Iraq in a World Cup 2026 qualifier playoff match vs. Bolivia in Monterrey, Mexico. The incident occurred near Gate D12 in the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.

The older I get, the more convinced I am that anxiety and depression are just natural responses to a deeply unjust society.

MAGA went from “the war is great!” to “it’s Obama’s fault” because of how unpopular it is LMAOOOO

Absolute economic devastation. Half of Thailand's entire fishing fleet is literally shut down because fuel prices have doubled. The global food supply chain is breaking apart because the Trump administration and Israel decided to bomb the Middle East.

Terrible flooding is currently affecting parts of Pul-e-Khumri in Baghlan Province, Afghanistan and the situation is critical.

Nothing Will Be the Same for a Long Time The world we knew has changed and will remain different for years to come. We were still recovering from the effects of the pandemic and the war in Ukraine when the new war, started by the United States and Israel, struck hard at the infrastructure of Iran, the Persian Gulf countries, Israel itself, and Oman. These bombings were not just military actions, they delivered a deep blow to the global economy. Oil, natural gas, fertilizers, semiconductors, chemicals, metals, and even helium saw their supply drastically reduced. Recovery will be slow and painful. The Price of Destruction The damage to the region’s metallurgical infrastructure was massive and concentrated on strategically vital points. In Iran, the Mobarakeh Steel Company complex suffered the collapse of blast furnace structures and critical cooling systems in its direct reduction units and electric arc furnaces. Reconstruction costs are estimated at US$ 6 billion, with a recovery timeline of 2 to 3 years. In Bahrain, the impact focused on Aluminium Bahrain, where the attack severely damaged reduction lines and logistics, causing structural losses of US$ 2.5 billion. In the United Arab Emirates, strikes against Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) facilities in Abu Dhabi and Dubai resulted in estimated structural damage of US$ 4.2 billion. This coordinated destruction in the three countries created a major gap in the global supply of primary metals, sharply raising operational costs and commodity prices worldwide. In the oil and gas sector, the destruction was even more brutal. The Kharg Island Terminal, Iran’s main crude oil export point, lost docking berths, pipelines, and giant storage tanks. Estimated cost: US$ 12 billion. The Asaluyeh and South Pars complex, the heart of gas and condensate processing, had fractionation towers, heat exchangers, and control systems incinerated, another US$ 10 billion in losses. The Abadan and Isfahan refineries, essential for gasoline and diesel production, were also badly damaged. When pipelines, gas lines, and pumping stations are added, the total cost for Iran’s energy sector alone reaches US$ 30.5 billion. The biggest problem is not just the money. It’s logistics. Iran needs to import turbines, special valves, and compressors that have long global production queues. Without easy access to Western suppliers, returning to pre-war levels could take 3 to 4 years. Israel also paid a heavy price. Its technology and chemical centers were hit. Semiconductor plants, such as Intel’s facility in Kiryat Gat, lost clean rooms and precision equipment. Chemical complexes in Haifa and desalination plants suffered significant damage. The total estimated cost is US$ 10 billion, with recovery times ranging from 6 months to 3 years. In Iraq, the already fragile electricity and port infrastructure lost high-voltage substations, cranes at Umm Qasr port, and grain silos. Approximate cost: US$ 5 billion. Recovery is expected to take 1 to 2 years. In the United Arab Emirates, attacks hit the Fujairah Industrial Zone, fuel tanks, the port that bypasses the Strait of Hormuz, and key gas fields and refineries such as Ruwais, Habshan, and Shah. Physical infrastructure costs exceed US$ 10 billion, with timelines from 6 months to 2 years. Kuwait and Bahrain faced direct impacts on ships and refineries. Kuwait lost a large tanker and saw its facilities operating at minimum capacity. Estimated losses: US$ 3 billion. Bahrain had its Sitra refinery damaged and pipelines affected, with repair costs around US$ 800 million and a timeline of 9 to 14 months. Oman was also hit, although on a smaller scale than its neighbors. Drone and missile strikes targeted key ports, damaging oil storage tanks and silos at Salalah, Duqm, and Sohar. Salalah, a major container and fuel hub outside the Strait of Hormuz, suffered fires in storage tanks and limited damage to cranes. Read More in my Substack: open.substack.com/pub/global21/p…

🇦🇷 🇵🇸 Argentina detains Gaza aid activist Thiago Ávila at airport Brazilian humanitarian activist Thiago Ávila was detained at Buenos Aires’ Aeroparque airport, according to online reports, with claims he was separated from his wife and child.

🇸🇸 Gunmen kill more than 70 at South Sudan gold mine Unidentified gunmen killed more than 70 people and wounded many others at a gold mining site at Jebel Iraq in South Sudan’s Central Equatoria State, on the outskirts of Juba, the Associated Press reports. The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement/Army–In Opposition (SPLM/A-IO) blamed government forces, saying that “full responsibility for the massacre rests” with the government. Gold mining in South Sudan is largely unregulated, with state governments operating their own sectors without the involvement of the national government, and Jebel Iraq has previously been the site of violent clashes involving illegal gold miners. 🎥 Aweil News Agency

🕵️ New: U.S. embassies to coordinate with Pentagon psy-ops unit and Elon Musk: 🔹Secretary of State Marco Rubio signed a cable Monday ordering all U.S. embassies and consulates worldwide to run coordinated campaigns against what it calls foreign “anti-American propaganda,” according to The Guardian. 🔹Embassies are instructed to recruit local influencers, academics, and community leaders to spread messaging that appears locally driven rather than directed by Washington. The cable also promotes X’s “Community Notes” feature as a crowdsourced way to counter anti-American narratives “without compromising free speech or privacy.” 🔹The directive tells diplomats to work with the U.S. military’s psychological operations unit and use X—owned by Elon Musk—as a key tool, describing it as an “innovative” way to counter disinformation.
