Amazing clip of Elon Musk shutting down a journalist who uses the term 'Far-Right'
"If you go back 10 or 15 years these were completely normal policies"
Secure borders
Safe cities
Sensible spending
"These are not far right, these are normal people"
I’m no fan of the Iranian Regime. They messed with me plenty when I lived there years ago. I saw the dark side of how they control the population with my own eyes. NOT a fan.
However, the facts are the facts:
To those in Dubai DMing me who are concerned, relax, yes this is an escalation - and whilst it is very ‘headline worthy’ it is in fact highly unlikely to impact day to day personnel security / safety levels for you and your family here.
I recommend that you:
Firstly and most importantly - monitor official channels like UAE Ministry of Interior, National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA), Dubai Police, WAM (Emirates News Agency) via their websites or X pages, for official security / safety advice.
Keep in mind western mainstream media makes money from clicks - not from truth or giving balanced assessments - they use fear to get attention and hence advertiser revenue. Much better to rely on official channels for balanced updates.
Postpone any travel plans until the situation stabilises.
Avoid military facilities of any type.
Contact family outside of the country to reassure them that you are fine, they are likely concerned due to western media fear mongering.

I’ve assessed conflicts and geopolitical risk in the region for decades, yes this is an escalation but no, there is no need for concern or leaving the country.
As a career security professional - with near 20 years working across the Middle East and an MSc in Risk - I’m still MUCH more comfortable having my family living in Dubai than in most major western cities.
I have said this before and I’ll say it again:
I fucking admire the unvaccinated! 💪
You’re the most courageous group of individuals. You held the line against a $1 trillion propaganda machine, and you told your family, your boss, and the government to fuck off! 🖕
Be proud my friend, you stood your ground like a fucking warrior🥇
Don’t ever let those brain-dead people downplay your efforts with “I was forced, not everyone has a choice.” 🤦♂️
NO ONE WAS FORCED! WE ALL HAD A HARD CHOICE TO MAKE! ⚖️
Some chose to comply, and some stood firm! 🛡️
I don’t give a flying fuck if you took the vaccine to avoid arguments with family, societal pressure, to keep your job, or for a donut, you sold your soul. 🤷♂️
You had a price tag, and you sold yourself for that price! 💸
The unvaccinated lost everything, but we kept our values, principles, and integrity. 🛡️
This is precisely why I don’t trust the vaccinated, because if history repeats itself again, and we all know it will, the vaccinated would throw me under the bus at any given moment if they were instructed by the government. 🚌
If your price is not death, you’re for sale. ☠️
"Be prepared, it's coming."
Remember when CNN technical director Charlie Chester, in a secret Project Veritas recording from April 2021, divulged that as soon as the public are no longer scared of "Covid", "climate change" will take centre stage as the new imaginary boogeyman to terrify everyone into submission with?
"They've already announced in our office that once the public is open to it, we're going to start focusing mainly on climate… There's a definitive ending to the pandemic. It'll taper off to a point that it's not a problem anymore. The climate thing is gonna take years, so they'll probably be able to milk that for quite a bit."
Amount of people saying “Stay & fight”, like this is some war movie. You cant fight. You cant even protest without being called racist.
& Fight who? How? The whole country is fucked, the water companies robbed us & dumped shit in the water, you can’t swim anywhere you’ll get ill & die. The country is literally a shit hole.
The councils are bankrupt & cant even fix a pot hole & charge you council tax for the privilege of doing fuck all while robbing you.
Moneys taxed, cars taxed, petrols taxed, booze, food EVERYTHING is taxed, then if you manage to save enough money after its been taxed to buy a house you get taxed on that, then if you die and pass it to your kids that gets taxed. They literally want everything from the working man while they hide their money. Its a con, we are being conned.
& We are about to get taxed even more.
NHS is fucked. Cost of living fucked. Interest rates are fucked, & we got years of it getting worse before it gets better.
Londons a hell hole & unsafe after dark. I hate it.
The men think they are women, kids are encouraged to think about their sexuality & gender.
Our soldiers are getting stabbed.
Our police are pussies & the ones that aint get fired.
& that aint even getting started on illegal immigration, thats getting worse.
If my country ever needed me to actually fight id be there, 100%, but i ain’t gambling the lifes of my three daughters in the mean time, & even if they did survive growing up here for what? To live in a shit hole full of fucking wierdo’s. No thanks.
Where would i go? Somewhere with a backbone, a bit of sun & with less risk of your kids getting murderd, like Australia, Russia or fucking North Korea.
I whole heartedly encourage anyone with young kids that have the ability to leave to do so. Todays events in Southport have rocked me to the core, im sat here looking at my daughters feeling sad.
You can still work on trying to get your voice heard while your kids are safe.
I want my kids to live not survive.
What kind of country are we if a Muslim being kicked in the head causes more outrage than a native solider in uniform at his army barracks being butchered & stabbed 70 times in front of his wife by an immigrant?
I don’t wanna hear a Prem player or manager moan about recovery or tiredness again!! Try doing extra time and pens last night and getting up for work at 5 on a few hours sleep!! Up the non league!!
I grew up on a Council Estate and never once questioned my parents income, it was never a discussion.
We didn’t eat a lot of fast food because it was considered a treat, not a food group.
We ate homemade meals consisting of meat, potatoes and vegetables - (which were not an optional choice). No vegetables, no dessert!!!
We grew up during a time when we mowed lawns, pulled weeds, babysat, helped neighbours with chores to be able to earn our own money.
We by no means were given everything we wanted.
We went outside a lot to play, ride bikes, run with friends, play hide and seek, or went swimming.
We rarely just sat inside.
Bottled water was unheard of.
If we had a coke, it was in a glass bottle and we didn’t break the bottle when finished.
We saved it and cashed it back in at the shops for a sweet.
After school, we came home and did homework and chores, before going outside or having friends over.
We would ride our bikes for hours.
We had to tell our parents where we were going, who we were going with and be home when the street lights came on!
You LEARNED from your parents instead of disrespecting them and treating them as if they knew absolutely nothing.
What they said was LAW and you did not question it and you had better know it!
We watched what we said around our elders because we knew if we DISRESPECTED any grown-up, we would get a real telling off, it wasn’t called abuse, it was called discipline!
We held doors, carried the shopping and gave up our seat for an older person without being asked.
You didn’t hear swear words on the radio in songs or TV.
“Please and Thank you”, were part of our daily vocabulary! 💯
The world we live in now is just so full of people who hate and disrespect others.
Consider Re-posting if you’re thankful for your childhood.
I will never forget where I came from and only wish children nowadays had half the chance at the fun and respect for real life we grew up with!
And we were never ever ever ever bored 💯
