I was here first - I'm a flesh and blood human not the Twitter/X silicon chip AI entity chatbot. That's spelt with a K. Learn the difference.








The more I read and learn about the 23.6 million barrels that Canada is contributing to support global oil demand (as part of the IEA's emergency release amid the Middle East disruptions), the less I understand where that specific number actually comes from. It truly seems like they just came up with a figure and are now trying to piece together a cohesive story around it, but nothing here makes any real sense. 🫣🪒

🚨🇮🇱🇱🇧 INTERVIEW: IDF SPOKESPERSON ON LEBANON INVASION & IRAN WAR I sit down with Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani as Israel prepares what seems an imminent invasion of Lebanon What is the goal the invasion? For how long? I confront him about the ‘Greater Israel’ theory, which many in Lebanon (including Hezbollah critics) fear We also discuss Iran: Is the Supreme Leader alive? Why did Israel strike the oil depots? How far will this war drag on? Nadav claims they have destroyed over 70% of Iran’s missile launchers, leaving Iranian forces struggling to carry out attacks. But then how is Israel still able to strike Israel and the Gulf? And what about the thousands of drones, what’s the solution for that?
