🇱🇾🇮🇱🇺🇸 A SECRET meeting with Netanyahu, and now a push to reach the heart of Trump’s White House...

Saddam Haftar, son of Libya’s powerful eastern military leader, reportedly met Netanyahu in Abu Dhabi and is now seeking a meeting with JD Vance.

He is also reportedly trying to establish ties with Kimberly Guilfoyle, Trump Jr's ex-fiancée and current U.S. Ambassador to Greece.

The goal appears clear: build powerful connections in Israel and Washington, as Haftar positions himself for a MUCH bigger role in Libya.

The pieces are moving on the geopolitical chessboard, and Haftar is playing for keeps...

🇸🇩 🇦🇪 Anthropic says it disrupted a UAE-directed influence operation aimed at blunting UN scrutiny of the Sudan war

In a threat report published Sept. 10, the AI company said it removed an account running a campaign it links with high confidence to UAE government officials, who its internal files named as the intended recipients. Per Anthropic, the operator used Claude to:

▪️ Run roughly 300 inauthentic influencer accounts, which the operator also funded
▪️ Stand up a front NGO copying a real Swiss organization's identity to publish state-authored human rights reports
▪️ Ghost-write testimony for two UN Human Rights Council speakers, built so neither mentioned the UAE
▪️ Profile 18 members of the European Parliament and prominent journalists
▪️ Compile dossiers on UN Special Rapporteurs who had criticized the UAE's conduct in Sudan
▪️The operator also took the identity of a real Sudanese rights group so the material would reach the UN as local witness testimony, the report said.

🚨 “I WAS A MOSSAD AGENT” – SHADOW WAR AGAINST IRAN

A quiet hotel manager in the Netherlands…
was allegedly a long-running Mossad asset.

According to an exposé by De Telegraaf:
• “Jonathan Mor” (pseudonym) operated 15 years inside covert missions
• Focus: targeting Iran’s nuclear program
• Lived a double life as a family man and hotel manager in the Netherlands

Now, his story is coming out in a new book: “Spy of the Mossad.”

🚨 LARRY SILVERSTEIN JUST BOUGHT THE TALLEST BUILDING ON THE WEST COAST – HISTORY IS ABOUT TO REPEAT ITSELF? 🚨

Lucky Larry is back in the game.

The same man who leased the World Trade Center weeks before 9/11, collected billions in double insurance payouts, and was caught on camera saying "pull it" about Building 7, has now taken ownership of the iconic U.S. Bank Tower in downtown Los Angeles.

633 West 5th Street. 73 stories. One of the most recognizable skyscrapers in California.

He closed the deal back in 2020 for around $430 million, but the alarms are screaming again with fresh lease announcements and people suddenly remembering who owns the keys.

If you work in the U.S. Bank Tower right now...

*RUN. RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN. AND NEVER SET FOOT INSIDE AGAIN.*

You already know the pattern. Don't wait for the official story this time.

Stay sharp. Get out. Spread the word.

BREAKING: Iran just struck Microsoft data centers in the Gulf. Not Amazon. Not a generic cloud provider. Microsoft — whose Azure platform runs the operational backbone of NATO, the US Department of Defense, and every major Western financial institution that has expanded into the Gulf over the last five years.

This is categorically different from the AWS strikes earlier in the war.

Microsoft Azure is not simply a commercial cloud product. It is a defense-grade infrastructure platform operating under FedRAMP High and DoD Impact Level 5 and 6 authorizations, the highest security classifications available to a commercial provider. Azure GovCloud runs classified US government workloads. Azure for Operators runs 5G military communications infrastructure. The Gulf Azure availability zones, built under billions of dollars of sovereign cloud commitments to UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, sit at the intersection of commercial enterprise and military-adjacent operations in a way no other cloud platform does. When Iran fires missiles at Microsoft data centers in the Gulf, it is not attacking a commercial storage facility. It is attacking the digital connective tissue between American defense architecture and Gulf sovereign AI ambitions.

The mechanism Iran is applying across every domain of this war is now operating at the infrastructure layer of the global digital economy. Hormuz for maritime insurance. BAPCO and Ras Tanura for oil infrastructure insurance. Manama hotels for corporate presence insurance. AWS for basic cloud insurability. Microsoft for the tier of cloud infrastructure that carries defense-adjacent and government workloads. Each successive target has moved one layer deeper into the critical infrastructure stack.

Microsoft has not yet confirmed the extent of damage or the impact on service continuity. That silence is itself data. When AWS facilities were struck earlier in the war, the company posted status updates within hours. The Microsoft situation is being handled with a different communication posture, which is consistent with facilities that carry sovereign and defense-adjacent contractual obligations that restrict what can be publicly disclosed about operational status.

The Gulf was supposed to be the proving ground for the sovereign AI thesis. Every major hyperscaler made the bet simultaneously: Gulf governments want their data onshore, under their own regulatory frameworks, close to their own populations, contributing to their own AI capability development. Microsoft, Google, AWS, Oracle, all committed multi-billion dollar buildouts to that thesis in the last three years. The thesis assumed physical security. The thesis assumed the Gulf was a stable operating environment for long-term digital infrastructure. That assumption was always geopolitically contingent. It is now empirically falsified.

Every CTO and every procurement officer running a sovereign cloud negotiation anywhere in the world is looking at the Microsoft strike footage right now and running the same calculation: if the Gulf is a ballistic missile target range, where does the sovereign AI buildout go instead?

Iran cannot win this war militarily. But it is methodically repricing every assumption the American-aligned economic order made about the Gulf as a safe jurisdiction for permanent infrastructure.

The missiles hitting Microsoft data centers today are not attacking cloud storage. They are attacking the confidence interval on a decade of digital infrastructure investment.

L’article dont personne ne s’est méfié.
Comme souvent dans les très grosses négociations, une clause de dernière minute suffit à tout faire exploser.

Israël prétend désormais ne pas pouvoir honorer les termes du cessez-le-feu… parce que les Palestiniens ne restituent pas les corps des otages ensevelis sous les décombres qu’Israël lui-même a provoqués.

Ironie macabre : Tel-Aviv interdit dans le même temps l’entrée du carburant et des bulldozers nécessaires pour fouiller les ruines.
Autrement dit : ils exigent l’impossible — puis accusent l’autre camp de ne pas l’accomplir.

C’est le piège parfait : la négociation devient prétexte, la paix devient alibi, et la mort, une condition de signature.

Two years of killing, slaughter, displacement, and uprooting — two whole years of genocide during which I preserved all my books. I managed to rescue three libraries that the Israeli occupation army burned. I’m trying to save what remains of the books, knowledge, and heritage as much as I can. No matter how much they try to uproot us, each of us will continue the struggle in our own way.

I’m the writer Omar Hamad is from the town of Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza and is now displaced in the city of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza.

I write as former Head of Maritime Section of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office
and Alternate Head of UK Delegation to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea Prepcom.

1) The flotilla is on the High Seas and not in Israel's 12 mile territorial sea. Israel has no jurisdiction.

2) The Israeli maritime blockade has been in place for 17 years and is an intrinsic part of the long term occupation found illegal in the ICJ advisory opinion

3) It is therefore not a short term measure in time of armed conflict as specified in the San Remo manual

4) In any event the San Remo rules explicitly state that humanitarian supplies may not be blockaded

5) The UN Commission of Inquiry has already determined that Israel is committing genocide. The blockade is plainly a part of the machinery of such genocide.

For reasons 1 to 5 the Israeli attack on the flotilla is plainly illegal.

6) On the High Seas, the law applying on each ship is the law of its flag state. An attack by a state military warship on a vessel on the High Seas is an attack on the flag state of the vessel attacked.

7) Acts of illegal possession of vessels or abduction of crew on the High Seas should be pursued by each flag state as crimes within their domestic jurisdiction, not only in international law.

8) So the Metropolitan Police and DPP have an obligation to investigate and act over the abduction of persons from UK flagged vessels on the High Seas.
This applies to each flag state mutatis mutandi.

I hope you find this helpful.

So Hamas can have no future in Gaza but the state of Israel can.

And the tiny number of Israeli hostages must be released but the vast majority tens of thousands of Palestinian ones stay in detention to be tortured.

Israel is the most rogue entity in the region by a distance.

At the UN security council the Algerian ambassador brings up the killing Palestinian Dr Alaa al-Najjar's 9 children. He names each of them

As he says "The eldest was 12yrs old. The youngest was 6mths old" the camera pans to the Israeli ambassador, who is playing with his phone.
