In 2021, North Carolina deputies seized a real Glock 19 painted to look like a Nerf toy and fitted with a 50-round drum magazine.
Police also found around 20 firearms, drugs and roughly $2,300 in cash during the raid. 😳🚔
🇮🇶🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia decided not to retaliate for the attacks on its main pipeline.
After drone attacks, the East-West pipeline was shut down, closing the only substantial oil export route besides the Strait of Hormuz (blocked by Iran).
🗣️ The Saudi government clarified: “The Kingdom clarifies that, following a request from the prime minister of Iraq to give the brotherly Iraqi government the opportunity to take the necessary measures to prevent attacks launched from Iraqi territory against Saudi Arabia and neighboring countries, the Kingdom has opted not to respond at this stage and to support the efforts of the Iraqi government.”
The attacks were carried out not by the Houthis, as many expected, but by rebel groups from Iraq aligned with Iran.
Saudis are squeezed from all sides. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz; Iran’s rebel groups in Iran shut down their East-West pipeline (temporarily at least). Meanwhile the Houthis are pushing out Saudi proxies in Yemen, seizing the Red Sea coast and taking control of a major global shipping route.
This is unsustainable for the Saudis, they are calling Trump now and ask for intervention. Donald will have to do something, he can’t just abandon the Saudis … but what?
Iranian Professor Marandi:
“You've messed with the wrong country.”
“Your propaganda doesn't work anymore.”
“What you have done to the Palestinian people, to the Iraqi people, to the Cuban people, to the Venezuelan people — you cannot do to the Iranian people.”

هذا الفيديو المؤلم من التبت، حيث أُجبرت الفتاة على الزواج من أربعة إخوة وفقًا للعادات والتقاليد…
في التبت ونيبال وشمال الهند، وكذلك في بعض ثقافات وسط أفريقيا، يُقبَل في مناطق معينة تعدُّد الأزواج بوصفه ممارسة اجتماعية. ما يحدث في هذا العالم فظيع! 😱.
☄️🆘 🇮🇱🇱🇧🇮🇷 Izrael földrengésszerűen semmisítette meg Libanonban a 2km hosszú Al el-Taher alagútrendszert, mely a legnagyobb iráni bázis volt Iránon kívül!

ℹ️ Az Al el-Taher alagútrendszere legnagyobb iráni bázis volt Iránon kívül. Izrael most úgy semmisítette meg, mintha soha nem lett volna.
Az Ali al-Taher-gerinc Dél-Libanonban, Nabatieh közelében, nagyjából 15 kilométerre az izraeli határtól fekszik. Körülbelül 600 méteres magasságával nagy területet lehet róla ellenőrizni, és stratégiai összeköttetést biztosít a dél-libanoni Hezbollah-állások és az Iqlim al-Tuffah térsége között.
Izrael már a 2026 márciusában kezdődő háború során elfoglalta a környező magaslatok egy részét, köztük a Beaufort-várat és júniusban már kifejezetten az egyik elsődleges hadműveleti célpontjaként jelölte meg Ali al-Tahert.
Akkoriban írtam erről nektek a napi geopolitikai összefoglalókban.
A Hezbollah korábban visszautasította a libanoni kormány kompromisszumos javaslatát miszerint a terrorszervezet a kormánycsapatoknak adná át a bázist.
🇮🇱 Izrael megoldotta, hogy akkor egyiké sem lesz! 💥💣
Az izraeli hadsereg közlése szerint több mint 1100 tonna robbanóanyagot használtak az infrastruktúra megsemmisítésére.
❗️🇮🇷 A helyzet most azért lehet veszélyes, mert Irán korábban már jelezte, hogy Ali al-Taher teljes izraeli elfoglalását vörös vonalnak tekintheti.

10. Következik Irán válasza a “vörös vonal” átlépésére?
Irán vörös vonalat húzott. Izrael átlépte. A Hezbollah elvesztette egy újabb fontos pozícióját és bázisát. Irán egyelőre nem válaszolt, de valamilyen reakcióra bizton számítani lehet. (Írta és szerkesztette: A VilagHelyzete szerkesztője)

The young man in the photo, head bowed with that suitably guilty and chastened look, tried to cross the Ukrainian-Belarusian border alone at night — apparently hoping to escape the flourishing paradise of “freedom and democracy” under Zelensky.
Unfortunately, he got lost in the woods.
According to the official story, he eventually called the border guards himself and asked for rescue. And, as you can see, no rescue operation would be complete without the traditional happy ending: a grateful little video thanking his valiant rescuers.
Now he has joined the ranks of the tens of thousands of men caught at the border while trying to flee the war. Mother Ukraine does not let her sons go — she holds them close in her deadly embrace.
Maybe future generations of Germans will understand the colossal gift their government threw away with disregarding Russian President Vladimir Putin.
A Russian leader who lived in Dresden for years, speaks German, whose daughter was born in Saxony, and who repeatedly offered genuine partnership and friendship to the German people.
Around the turn of the millennium, there was a real chance to combine Russian resources with German engineering and build a powerful, nearly untouchable alliance stretching from Vladivostok to Lisbon.
Instead, short-sighted and corrupt German politicians sabotaged it all, willingly aligning themselves with those in Washington who would rather see Germany and Russia locked in a devastating conflict.
What could have been a historic partnership was tossed aside for political expediency, and the devastating consequences are still unfolding.
Here is the historic speech the Russian president delivered in German to the Bundestag on September 25, 2001.
He directly addressed the German people in their own language.
This was a moment that, had it been seized, would have changed everything....
Morning in Kiev
The "Pakline" logistics hub has been destroyed, Russias relentless destruction of Ukraines logistics is ongoing, even petrol stations in Kiev are now being hit.
Meanwhile, Dictator Zelensky says he needs 120 Patriot missiles (every month) to survive winter
Today Boris Johnson is in my native city of Lviv, presenting his memoir at the BookForum.
He is still hailed here as a “great friend of Ukraine.” Everyone wants a selfie with Boris. Local politicians scurry after him, desperate to catch a few reflected rays of his glory.
All this despite Johnson being a warmonger and neocon who helped derail the 2022 Istanbul peace process with Russia — and despite his later acknowledgment that NATO viewed Ukraine as the battlefield for a proxy war against Russia.
He is one of the Western politicians whose decisions bear responsibility for a war that has cost hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian lives. Yet Ukrainians still thank him, celebrate him, and even name streets after him. Perhaps one day we’ll complete the set with a Boris Johnson Memorial Cemetery.
As long as this mentality persists, Ukraine will remain stuck in the shit: less a sovereign country than a Western colony and proving ground, where a Ukrainian life acquires geopolitical value mainly when it can be spent helping to bleed the Russian bear.
And somehow we’re expected to call this friendship.
You may have heard of a brand called BYD. It's not allowed to be sold in the US.
If they were to let BYD into the US, General Motors and Ford would be bankrupt in 3 years.
The CEO of Honda came back from a trip and said, "We can't compete. There's just no way."
A man breaks down in tears upon finding one of the rarest flowers in the world, which he has been searching for for over 13 years.

🚨 «El objetivo es sacar dinero de las guerras y devolverlo a manos de una élite transnacional (Agenda Gløbalista 20 30)»
⚠️La guerra es un esquema de lavado de dinero basado en impuestos para la élite de seguridad transnacional - Les importa muy poco si es en Afganistán o Ucrania, el verdadero objetivo es el robo del dinero público.
"La meta no es ganar ninguna guerra, sino mantener conflictos permanentes que alimentan ese circuito de poder"
"El Objetivo es una guerra sin fin, no una guerra exitosa"

Go to Mallorca they said. It'll be fun they said.
A freak storm hit Valldemossa on Wednesday, bringing gusts of up to 158 km/h (new record for Mallorca). It downed trees, cut power to 17,000, and caused flash floods.
This is a prime example of how climate change supercharges our weather. Record-breaking Mediterranean sea temperatures acted as fuel, turning a standard storm front into a violent, destructive event.
