I am glad that Trump - once again - backed off from his threats of massive escalation. There's little to suggest that the threats were genuine; rather, he is trying to bluff his way out of this conflict.
While we should be happy he isn't acting on his apocalyptic bluffs, knowing very well that Iran's counterescalation would be devastating for the US, the region, and the global economy, reality is that there likely won't be a diplomatic breakthrough UNTIL Trump retires this tiresome reliance on bullying and threats.
If Iran is behind these cyberattacks on US water systems, the message is clear.
It's a warning: If the US strikes critical infrastructure in Iran, including desalination plants and power grids, Iran will respond in kind through cyberattacks against critical infrastructure in the US.
Essentially, Iran will bring the war to the US itself using cyber.
The strategic mistake of starting - and restarting - this war is only becoming more enormous.

If Trump attacks tonight, Iran's overwhelming response will begin immediately. All people should prepare to leave the criminal family dictatorships in the Persian Gulf at once.

Protests in Ukraine!
Crowds block the city center chanting: “Zelensky, come out to the people!”
In 2014 these exact slogans started the revolution that toppled the government.
Is this the beginning?..
Did you know the “Star of David” (occult Baal symbol) used to be on the flag of Morocco, before modern Israel existed? May want to look into the history of the Alawite dynasty.
We discussed this in my Becoming Brigitte series. Pedophiles (like Emmanuel Macron’s favorite author Andre Gide ) would regularly go to Morocco with the express purpose of raping Muslim boys. Occult worshippers always harm children.
Spain— stay strong. The world knows what is happening and exactly who is behind it. 🇪🇸
Potemkin Party's official media outlets - Ethiopian News Agency (ENA), EBC, and FANA among others - are yet again on overdrive mode this week to churn out, particularly in their domestic broadcasts, fallacious and incendiary vitriol against Eritrea on a daily basis.
The stale and obsolete themes, the inflammatory and provocative packaging, remain the same; i.e.
1. Denigration and denial of Eritrea's hard-won independence that was achieved through precious sacrifices in Africa's longest liberation struggle when its right to decolonization was suppressed in the 1940s on the altar of "overarching" geopolitical interests of some global powers;
2. Repeated and bellicose pronouncements, accompanied by incessant saber-rattling, on the Potemkin Party's inexorable quest for "sovereign access to the sea... through negotiations if possible and force if necessary";
3. Rationalization of a "wider war that would expand to Eritrea's Dahlak Islands for reasons of strategic depth", in order to project and guarantee, in its convoluted views, "viable maritime power";
4. Banal and spurious "economic arguments" for rationalizing war and invasion in order to avoid exorbitant "port fees"; etc.
These are red lines and political blasphemies that should not be countenanced by any normal country.
The sad fact is these are normative for a callous and reckless Potemkin Party that seems to specialize in incubating endless conflicts both at home and in the wider Horn of Africa region (illicit MoU with Somaliland; active and surrogate role in the exacerbation of the conflict in Sudan etc.).

It is incredible how the RSF received more foreign support than any other insurgent group in decades and is still losing this war.
The UAE poured billions into this war, recruited three neighboring countries for the cause, yet the RSF is still losing https://t.co/zDYPB3Tdtf
Why do we stand with @AbdulElSayed?
Because he’s a fighter for:
Higher wages
Stronger unions
Lower bills
and expanded Medicare
…FOR ALL!
That’s why lobbyists are spending against him - and why your support makes all the difference.

Being angry at Fauci or being angry at Israel isn’t productive anymore. The anger is justified, but without real accountability it’s just wasted energy—unless it’s directed effectively into a pursuit for positive change.
Trump won in 2024 because most Americans understood that wars in the Middle East are bad for the U.S. & that COVID was a crime against humanity. He built a historic coalition that promised, with conviction, that voting for Trump meant we’d get accountability, no more foolish wars, & an administration that would actually put America first.
Instead, we have a new war in the Middle East and Trump announcing he’ll honor Fauci’s pardon.
This is all infuriating, but don’t let it demoralize you—because it’s also clarifying.
We can declassify documents, stage hearings, and post talking points on the internet all day. But none of it matters when we have a justice system that refuses to deliver genuine, bipartisan accountability, impartial to political influence from any direction.
Right now, Trump has the ultimate power to pursue that accountability, and he’s choosing not to. That tells you everything you need to know.
We know who will hide behind performative outrage about Fauci, Iran, or the Deep State while taking no real action in efforts to shield their political careers—and we know who will actually stand up, fight, & tell the truth, no matter how uncomfortable the consequences may be.
The problem isn’t the War Machine, foreign interests trying to push us into war, or the Deep State & their pathetic apparatchiks like Fauci seeking to control us.
The problem is putting our faith in leaders, again and again, who lack the courage to fight them.
