🚨🇮🇷🇫🇷 Every war creates winners nobody expected. Meet the Gorgé family.

Their Paris-based company Exail Technologies builds mine-hunting sea drones. One full system costs €500 million and takes 18 months to build.

Since Iran started to mine the Strait of Hormuz, their phone hasn't stopped ringing.

Exail's shares are up 60% this year. Profits up 40%. Order intake up 87%. The CEO says if he had 12 systems ready off the shelf he could sell them all tomorrow.

The post-WWI plan for Europe wasn’t made in Berlin or Paris but on Wall Street, with a wink from London.

During WWI, J.P. Morgan Jr. gave $500 million to Britain and France. After the war, they couldn’t pay it back, so they made Germany pay instead. That crushed Germany’s economy. Then the U.S. showed up with a “rescue plan” and gave more loans this time to Germany.

Classic move:
Make the mess ⏭️ act like the savior ⏭️ take control.

Meanwhile, Morgan Guaranty took charge of handling Germany’s reparation payments.

By the 1920s, they had become one of the most powerful banks in the world and Germany’s top lender. And while Roosevelt was launching the New Deal, Morgan was also helping Mussolini secure a $100 million loan, before WWII even began.

At the same time, Montagu Norman, head of the Bank of England, was best buddies with Hitler’s top banker, Hjalmar Schacht. They co-founded the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) which kept financial ties alive across borders, even as the world inched toward war.

Norman was even the godfather of Schacht’s grandchild. They stayed close, used backdoor banking channels, and made sure the money kept flowing, even while Hitler was rising.

Imagine telling the Crusaders that one day the heirs of Saladin would own half of London.

“No days unalert.”

Nothing should catch you by surprise because you are constantly imagining problems before they arise.

Instead of spending your time dreaming of your plan’s happy ending, you must work on calculating every possible permutation and pitfall that might emerge in it.

The further you see, the more steps ahead you plan, the more powerful you become.

We’ll be uncovering more dealings of the Deep state in Nigeria & the war against Dangote refinery. We might get into sensitive areas due to the factions involved. However, we’re undeterred.
Get a seat nd enjoy the dark side of Nigeria history.

The real problem with letting GMOs into African agric supply chains has nothing to do with whether they're healthy or not.

The actual issue is that these variants, developed using proprietary technology by their American patent holders, can mix with local crop variants around the world and become dominant. The patent owner has the right to stop you from planting his GMO seeds, and to dictate how much of it you can buy.

These GMOs are also engineered not to reproduce the normal way, so that instead of just planting part of the old harvest, farmers must buy seeds every planting season.

A time will come when the local variants will disappear, and farmers will need to buy seeds from the American GMO patent holders like @SyngentaUS every planting season - which means that a country's ability to grow FOOD will be directly dependent on its relationship with the Yanks.

I'll leave you to think about the implications of this.

The US military has embraced AI to locate targets they’ve gone on to strike — a confirmation that demonstrates AI warfare is already here.

Do you know Anambra doesn't have any of Uber, Taxify or Bolt?

Peter Obi @PeterObi started one ANIDS Taxi Scheme; will I say he used that vehicles as bonanza for family and friends, twice!!!

The taxis stop existing immediately he left office. I know people cruising with the taxi, as personal car, my lecturer at Uli, my parish council chairman at St. Anthony's Nkpor, to count but a few.

Biko, we need taxi hailing companies in Anambra.

Tinubu's legal team presented a letter from the US embassy confirming his lack of criminal record in the US, which Justice Tsammani cited as evidence.

According to the Nigerian constitution, a certificate from US authorities is not required to enforce a foreign court's judgement.

THIS WILL MAKE YOUR STOMACH TURN

Report:

The EU is set to launch a new mission in West Africa in the fall, a German newspaper has reported. The combined military-civilian operation will aim to prevent instability triggered by jihadi groups.

European Union member states have agreed to begin a mission in the Gulf of Guinea in West Africa, with police and soldiers deployed to Ghana, Togo, Benin and Ivory Coast, German newspaper Die Welt am Sonntag reported on Sunday, citing diplomats.

According to the paper, the mission will aim to train and advise local security forces, help prepare for anti-terror operations, give technical support and implement confidence-building measures in the security sector.

The mission is to be launched after formal approval is given by EU foreign ministers at a meeting in October in Luxembourg.

The reason behind the planned mission is the EU's concern that Islamist groups "could extend their activities in West Africa from the Sahel zone toward the southern coastal countries on the Gulf of Guinea, leading to even more widespread instability in the region," Welt am Sonntag reported.
Militant activity from extremist groups linked to "Islamic State" and al-Qaidahave rocked countries such as Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso in recent years.
The EU also wants to counter Russian influence in the region which has been spread through Wagner mercenaries who have supported military regimes in the Sahel. 

The situation was further complicated for the EU after Mali kicked out French and German forces that had been training Malian soldiers and police.

Benin and Ghana had already officially invited the EU to deploy the mission on their territories, according to the paper.
The report comes as several countries in the region have fallen under military governments following coups, the latest being on July 26 in Niger. Military juntas have also taken power in Mali and Burkina Faso.

The fall of Niger to junta control has been especially concerning as it had been a key ally to Western powers operating throughout the region.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

- They’re deploying “Police and soldiers” on African soil!???

- Mission will be launched after formal approval is given by EU foreign ministers!

- Benin Republic and Ghana had already officially invited the EU to deploy the mission on their territories???

Wait! What??? Okay, if you have followed my reporting long enough, you must have heard me say it over and over again, that AFRICA is the new Ukraine for them. One of the first reports I published over the Niger crisis detailed what you’re now reading in this exclusive report. I made it clear that this is all about the battle between RUSSIA and the west and the fact that RUSSIA has chosen to throw its weight behind Africans in their quest to break lose from colonial enslavement. The battlefield has shifted and if you ever doubted that, there you have it.

The effrontery to send Police and Soldiers to our continent when we are not living in slavery era is enough to help you see what an incredibly historic time we live in, as AFRICANS. It’s a generational TURNING POINT. The west is losing big. Everywhere you turn, they’re losing. Even their own world bank just reported that Russia’s GDP has surpassed that of Europe amidst sanctions! And now they’re also losing AFRICA, which has been their sole provider. It’s fight to finish and God will not forgive any one on the continent who makes it easy for colonizers to continue to entrench themselves on the continent of AFRICA.

Africans! Let’s wake up en masse and be vigilant. This has got to STOP! If we were treated so well, there would be no Russian Wagner on the continent of AFRICA. To beat Africans for generations and tell them not to cry is the height of maniacal arrogance. My confidence is that THIS IS OUR TIME and no force on earth can defeat an IDEA whose time has come. Africans will resist this with everything in them.

Viva Africa!
