Ask why there’s been so much violence in the middle east these last three years and you’ll be told it’s because of October 7.
Ask why October 7 happened and you’ll be called an antisemite.
Ask what specifically transpired on that day and you’ll be called a conspiracy theorist.
Washington is currently conducting destructive airstrikes deep inside the very heart of Tehran.
Right now, there is no rational reason to believe the situation will escalate into a full-scale war, primarily because America currently does not possess the raw material resources and the industrial supply chains required to engage in a prolonged, full-scale war with a nation like Iran.
But these persistent ceasefire violations in Lebanon, these continuous pirating of Iranian flagged vessels in the Persian Gulf, and these sudden airstrikes deep inside sovereign Iranian territory tell us one undeniable truth: America has absolutely zero intention of giving up on its ultimate, non-negotiable material objective in the Middle East, which is the total, unconditional capitulation of the Iranian state.
The heavily hyped reconstruction funds may still officially flow to Tehran, their crude oil may still be allowed to flow into the global market to temporarily stabilize Western fuel prices, and highly publicized diplomatic handshakes may still take place. All of these performative gestures can easily happen, but none of it means that America is abandoning its core, imperial objectives regarding Iran.
For context: America is actively signing massive, multi-billion-dollar trade deals with China while simultaneously launching aggressive proxy warfare, naval provocations, and intelligence operations against Beijing via Taiwan, the Philippines, and Indonesia. Any talk of diplomatic normalization, detente, or temporary peace talks is strictly there to serve as a convenient money-laundering mechanism for the financial-industrial complex and the Wall Street banking cartels in Washington.
So despite the Memorandum of Understanding, the predatory and expansionist core objectives of this global empire are still very much alive, kicking, and breathing.
PSA: It's not the poor, powerless foreigners you should be worries about. It's the rich ones who want to buy entire swathes of your national territory and turn them into literal colonies that aren't subject to your country's laws - those are your real nightmares.
Militarily, Iran was not disarmed. Its ballistic missiles remain intact. Its drone capacity remains intact. Its strategic deterrent remains intact. A defeated country is usually forced to destroy its weapons. Iran was not.
I am determined to make $100,000 trading by the end of this year.
Started with a loss, learned my discipline.
I will post profit and loss at the end of every day below. When I hit $100,000 I will give $10,000 to my followers, comment your $KAS or $SOL wallet below.
Pinned.
It's a war on the human conscience. Sentencing anti-genocide activists as terrorists. Working to deport Trita Parsi for criticizing the war on Iran. They're actually punishing people for not acting like sociopaths.
It's the same war on the conscience that saw the empire persecute Julian Assange, crush pro-Palestine demonstrations on university campuses, investigate peace activists for bringing aid to Cuba, and dramatically ramp up the suppression of free speech to silence criticism of Israel.
In a healthy society, a person of conscience would thrive while a sociopath would be shunned and marginalized. In western society it's the exact opposite: people of conscience are sent to prison, and sociopaths are made president of the United States.
That's what you get when you live under an empire established on and driven by sociopathic values. The agenda to dominate and control the entire human population is evil, because it can only be accomplished through nonstop war, militarism, propaganda, deception, and tyranny.
That's why the truth-tellers are branded traitors, the anti-genocide demonstrators are branded anti-semites, and the peace activists are branded terrorists. We live in a backward dystopia with backward values, so the good are beaten down while the wicked rule the world.
PHARMACIST: GMO WILL RUIN AFRICAN COCOA
The Swiss Platform for Sustainable Cocoa reports that Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana produce 46 per cent of the world’s cocoa. However, how will crop yields fare with the Ghanaian government allowing CRISPR generated cocoa trees to enter its farmlands? US pharmacist Layne Kilpatrick raises the question.
So tell us: Is it a good idea to introduce genetically modified organisms (GMOs) to African countries? Let us know in the comments.

The self-annointed global standard bearers of "journalism" who always want to throw money at African journalists to "teach them journalism" are in reality so useless that they're using ChatGPT to write their stories.
I'll let you sit with that.
