🚨🇦🇪🇺🇸 Prominent UAE billionaire Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor just published an open letter to Trump. It's brutal.
"Who gave you the authority to drag our region into a war with Iran? Who gave you permission to turn our region into a battlefield?"
Al Habtoor's a major figure: billionaire, former diplomat, outspoken political voice in the Gulf. When he talks, UAE leadership's listening.
His questions:
* Was this your decision or Netanyahu's pressure?
* Did you calculate collateral damage before firing?
* You placed GCC countries at the heart of danger they didn't choose
* Your "Board of Peace" initiatives were funded by Gulf states. Now we're getting attacked. Where did that money go?
* You promised no wars. You've conducted operations in 7 countries: Somalia, Iraq, Yemen, Nigeria, Syria, Iran, Venezuela
* 658 airstrikes in your first year back = Biden's entire term (which you criticized)
* War costs $40-65 billion for operations, possibly $210 billion total
* Your approval rating's down 9% in 400 days
* Americans were promised peace. They're getting war funded by their taxes
The sharpest line: "Before the ink has dried on your Board of Peace initiative, we find ourselves facing military escalation that endangers the entire region. So where did those initiatives go?"
Al Habtoor's not some random critic. He's establishment. Connected. When UAE elites start publicly questioning Trump's decision-making, that's America's closest Arab allies saying "we didn't sign up for this."
The letter ends: "True leadership is not measured by war decisions, but by wisdom, respect for others, and pushing toward achieving peace."

Eight years ago I was interning at LINE Corporation.
There was an older woman who sold banana cue outside our office building every afternoon. I used to buy from her almost every day. One time she noticed my ID and asked, “Ms, you work for LINE?”
I nodded.
She pulled out this old Android phone with a cracked screen and said, “Can you help me sign up? My neighbor said if I’m on GoFood more people will order. My son tried but we don’t understand the forms.”
So there we were, sitting on tiny plastic stools by the sidewalk, uploading photos of her banana cue, setting prices, explaining delivery radius while motorcycles zoomed past us.
Two months later she stopped me again.
Not to ask for help, but to show me her phone.
“Look,” she said, smiling. “I get orders even when it rains now.”

JAY B found loopholes in JYPe contracts and used a law that no idol had ever used... 4 years is not EASY and had to pay for JB STAGE NAME, GOT7, JJ Project, Jus2 ALL royalties! JAY B own lawyer said "company was obligated because JAY B studied laws rights"
I just love how Hyun Bin respects Son Yejin, not only as his wife and the mother of their child, but as an actress who truly loves and lives for acting. Even before they met, he already knows how significant her name is and how much weight it carries in their industry. 💟
