Former SpaceX astronaut Garrett Reisman reveals the single prism Elon Musk runs every major decision through "He measures pretty much every major decision by whether or not it brings the day when we have a self-sustainable colony on Mars sooner or later" "That's the prism by which he makes every single decision he makes" "He's got an idea and he'll keep pushing, and he gives us aggressive timelines that we have to work to" "We work really hard to try to meet them. It's hard when you're doing stuff that's this complicated to predict exactly how long it's going to take" "We end up falling a little bit behind, but we do our best"

“The negotiations are proceeding in an orderly and constructive manner, and I have informed my representatives not to rush into a deal in that time is on our side… Both sides must take their time and get it right. There can be no mistakes!” - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸

[ For Tulsi, Ivanka, and for the sake of the descendants of the Middle East ] If Iran officially declares that it will not acquire nuclear weapons, that would be in the U.S.’s interest. From Iran’s perspective, generating additional revenue through the Strait of Hormuz is of practical importance, while—to put it bluntly—whether Iran collects money through the Strait or not is not an immediate concern for the U.S. That would only deal a fatal blow to Europe and Asia. However, Arab nations, Middle Eastern countries, and anti-war activists are under a major misconception. Neither now nor in the past has Iran’s offensive capability or aggressiveness been sufficient to immediately attack the U.S. mainland. The problem lies with the countries of the Middle East. If Iran succeeds in these negotiations as things stand, it will hold a powerful card regarding how to threaten—and how it can threaten—Middle Eastern nations. In other words, this aligns with the past neoconservative strategy of the U.S. to maintain the region as a conflict zone. JD Vance has just arrived in Washington, so he doesn’t fully understand. This is a massive industry and a cancerous tumor. It’s not good for the U.S. either. The moral satisfaction and seemingly righteous justifications that are right in front of our eyes are the Deep State’s biggest bait. And everyone gets used by this. Tulsi is no exception. What is the essence of this devil’s whisper? No one is willing to shoulder the heavy burden, and everyone falls into the trap because of the superficial, plausible facade. They are seeking only a momentary sense of satisfaction. This is the principle by which a chess player who can only see 100 to 200 moves ahead cannot defeat the Deep State. You cannot win without sacrificing the queen, nor can you protect the king. If Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, and the UAE make a bold decision, they could occupy Iran and establish an Arab Federation to control the region. If they successfully establish this, they could enjoy the great prosperity of the Middle East for at least 300 to 500 years, or even 1,000 years. There is no reason they cannot get along with Israel either. To be honest, Palestinians and Israelis are the same people. Since the dawn of time, they have not been Arabs. The return of Israel—which had perished in that very location after countless changes of rulers and empires—was Europe’s intention and a creation of Europe. This is something that the foolish “parents” of the Middle East (the region’s past political leaders) effectively agreed to at the UN. This, too, is a way of planting the seeds of conflict—a time bomb that could explode at any moment. That is why the Middle East is designed to wage war every 10, 15, 20, or 30 years. You simply do not realize this. It is because you are blinded by immediate gains, or have become all too accustomed to the sweet taste of blood money from yet another war and conflict 10 or 20 years down the line. However, when looking further ahead from a long-term perspective, it is very clear which approach results in fewer deaths and brings about peace and prosperity in the long run. The backlash is fleeting, and the condemnation or criticism of a single generation won’t last even 20 years. Human life spans barely 100 years at most. However, if the Middle East’s dream and ambition is to become a superpower like the United States or China and to bring true peace and prosperity to Arab citizens, then it is certainly better to deal with Iran now. Think about it. What benefit?- Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, and Pakistan gain by allowing Iran to harbor scattered bandit groups and terrorist organizations that survive by constantly stirring up conflicts, strife, and discord of all sizes? The Middle East remains shackled by short-sighted thinking and complacency
