"Operation Eternal Darkness." It is like Israel said, fuck it, yeah, we are the children of Satan.

‼️🚨🇮🇱 Feodor Dostoevsky WARNED all of us about the Talmudic globalist conspiracy in 1877: “Yes, Europe stands on the threshold of a terrible catastrophe… All these Bismarcks, Beaconsfields*, Gambettas**, and others - they are all mere shadows to me… Their master, the ruler of everything without exception, of all of Europe, is the Jew and his bank… Judaism and the banks now govern everything and everyone, both Europe and socialism, for through it, Judaism will uproot Christianity and destroy Christian culture. And even if nothing but anarchy remains, it too will be controlled by the Jew. For although he preaches socialism, he and his fellow Jews remain outside of socialism. So when all the wealth of Europe is depleted, the only thing left will be the Jewish bank. (…) The Jewish revolution must begin with atheism, for the Jews must overthrow that faith, that religion, from which emerged the moral foundations that made Russia both holy and great!” -Feodor Dostoevsky’s ‘Diary of a Writer’, March 1877 ☦️🇷🇺 *’Beaconsfields’ refers to the Earl of Beaconsfield, Benjamin Disraeli - the first Jewish Prime Minister of the British Empire (1874 - 1880). **Léon Gambetta was a French liberal politician, freemason and advocated for the ‘separation of church & state’ In late 1800s France. His political opponents sometimes referred to him as ‘Jewish’ (an Italian Jew) which he most likely was due to this vehement anti-Conservative views.

Reformists are low on the rungs of the ladder of investment in the theory I've explained in Please Bomb My Country. This means as opposed to having a sense of protectiveness and importance for community, nation, and universal ideals, they are more "Social-Dominance Orientation" (Sidanius, Pratto) individuals focused on their own self-interest and immediate circle's well-being. This is essentially the type discussed by Jalal Al-e Ahmad in Weststruckness, the blank bourgeois professional/careerist that appears during industrialization and urbanization, and is a portable, slick individual that knows how to survive, self-promote, and navigate politics. Essentially, Vilfredo Pareto's "fox" character. In short, urbanization and the policies first created by Reza Shah and taken to their zenith by the Islamic Republic actually created contradictions which threaten to collapse the Islamic Republic; by creating a large class of bourgeois type "bigheyratis" or foxes, they ensured that liberalism will always have an entry point into Iranian society and people willing to midwife it (Zarif, Rouhani, Khatami). This leads, as I explain in Please Bomb My Country to two outcomes- fox dominance, where the system as a whole becomes weak, susceptible to subversion and sovereignty is constantly traded for ruling class self-interest (Qajar dynasty level at its extreme), or a recalcitrant reassertion of gheyrati power, i.e. "North Koreafication" where system fragility occurs after the gheyratis or in Pareto's terminology, the "lions" crack down, consolidate power, and use ruthless force to limit the foxes.

🚨 BREAKING: Spain’s Prime Minister is calling on the European Union to suspend its trade and diplomatic agreement with Israel — after Israeli strikes hit Lebanon’s capital today. Europe is moving.

#SPX My 2 cents The likely path after rally exhausts itself is new lows into end the of April beginning of May for $SPX. 1) Global economic growth was rolling pre war and credit cycle ending via private credit was evident before war. Oil shock only hastens it. AI bubble deflating, housing headwinds and China economic woes in process. 2)Fed is on pause due to price shock until the damage is right in from of them. Holding rates into declining global liquidity is de-facto tightening. 3) Odds of ceasefire lasting very uncertain at this point.

What have we learnt so far? What are the surprises? What has been discovered about the shape of the world? Here’s the five most important. 1 — The most important discovery is that Iran is a great power. This is a real discovery that was not known to the Iranians themselves; specifically, they could not be sure in advance that a strategic victory over the US was achievable. It is a fundamental discovery about the polarity of the system: there are now four great powers in the world and this structure will have very important consequences going forward. 2 — The idea that you can secure strategic objectives with the air weapon due to the precision-strike revolution has been debunked. The ‘combined-arms orthodoxy’ has been vindicated and proponents of strategic air war have again been proven wrong. 3 — We have learnt that Warden’s decapitation idea does not work against highly-institutionalized states. This was always the position of the serious scholars, but recent Israeli successes had sown some doubt about the thesis. These doubts have now vanished. 4 — We have learnt that a mature precision-strike regime is defense-dominant. Specifically, we have learnt that a great power can deny a global maritime power access to its near-abroad, curtailing the latter’s ability to project power. 5 — As a corollary of the above, the US command of the global commons is gone. The US is no longer a maritime hegemon that can guarantee access to even the most important chokepoint in the system. This is a development of great significance in the history of capitalism.

There's a 310MW fire at Abqaiq right now - nbd (and before you say gas flares, those run 10-20MW) Nbd...

This is not the Korean, Vietnam, Iraq, or Afghanistan War, where we could spend months and years without major damage to the US or the global economy. This is like a knife fight in a cave between a SCUBA diver with a diminishing air tank and a moray eel. In this war, time is a more unforgiving enemy than Iran. And the civilization which invented chess understands this even if we do not.

BREAKING: NASA FIRMS satellite data shows a massive 310 MW fire at Saudi Aramco's Abqaiq facility, the world's largest crude oil processing site. Routine gas flares at oil facilities are 10-20 MW. Abqaiq handles up to 7 million barrels per day.

@cirnosad Everything we are seeing comes back to this message, everything. We were warned. Larijani warned everyone yet instead of immediate execution for treason, they chose house arrest. Now Larijani and IRGC intelligence are dead. They've completed their coup. x.com/i/status/20412…

IRANIAN PARLIAMENT AND SPOKESPERSON OF THE NATIONAL SECURITY AND FOREIGN POLICY COMMISSION : IN RESPONSE TO THE SAVAGE ZIONIST AGGRESSION AGAINST LEBANON, THE PASSAGE OF SHIPS IN THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ MUST BE HALTED RIGHT NOW, AND WITH A HEAVY AND DECISIVE STRIKE, WE MUST PREVENT THE RABID DOGS AND THE CANCEROUS TUMOR OF THE REGION FROM THEIR SABOTAGE, || THE LEBANESE SACRIFICED THEIR LIVES FOR US, AND WE MUST NOT LEAVE THEM ALONE FOR A MOMENT || CEASEFIRE EITHER ON ALL FRONTS OR ON NO FRONTS.

Now that they've finally arrested Ben Roberts- Smith for war crimes, it's time they investigate Australian citizens in the IDF who return to Australia as if they hadn’t committed genocide. I liked to see these IDF murderers tracked down & arrested too. Who else does?

🚨Israel is calling the bombing of Beirut "Operation Eternal Darkness". Israel is darkness and demons. We are the light.

IRAN SPOKESPERSON FOR NATIONAL SECURITY COMMITTEE RAZAEI: IN RESPONSE TO AGGRESSION AGAINST LEBANON, MOVEMENT OF SHIPS IN HORMUZ MUST BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY; EITHER A CEASEFIRE ON ALL FRONTS OR NO CEASEFIRE ON ANY FRONT t.me/almayadeen/363…

⚠️ Warning: Be Prepared for US to activate Riot/Terror Cells in Iran in the upcoming 2 weeks during the "ceasefire"

خبير روسي: لن تُقبل هذه الشروط. يبدو أن ترامب يحاول ببساطة فتح مضيق هرمز لفترة كافية بينما يقوم بتجميع قوات إضافية.

Wow. Everyone should read this 1983 article by Roald Dahl. Every word of it. It's literally the same fucking shit as now, with the same kind of impunity, only now it's even much worse. He called it. He fucking called it and they just ignored him and called him an antisemite.

x.com/CRUDEOIL231/st… If true, no deal there. The GCC countries, especially Saudi, will never tolerate Iranian control over the SoH. That would be the end of OPEC+, and Iran would become the most powerful swing producer in history. Saudi would lose all its influence and leverage. They can’t just sit back and watch this happen. For Saudi this is an existential threat far greater than any missiles or drones. #oott #iran
