Per IDF data, ~6,000 Gazans crossed on Oct 7 (3,800 Nukhba fighters + 2,200 others). Of the ~5,000 identified as terrorists in the attack or hostage-holding, ~1,200 were killed in Israel that day. By mid-2026, over 2,700–2,800 total had been eliminated (plus ~300 captured), with the Nili unit continuing the effort.
🚨 Vice President JD Vance has reportedly made an unplanned return to Washington as President Trump convenes his full national security team for an Iran meeting.
Trump is also expected to speak with several Arab leaders after reports of a “breakthrough” call on Iran. Sec. Hegseth and Gen. Dan Caine have reportedly arrived at the White House as well.
Something major appears to be developing.👀

Elon Musk was asked how he’d manufacture satellites at scale.
He described building a factory on the moon.
And almost nobody caught what he was laying out.
Musk: “The lunar soil is like 20% silicon. So you can mine the silicon on the moon, refine it, and create the solar cells and the radiators on the moon.”
He’s not talking about going to the moon.
He’s talking about turning it into a production line.
Mining silicon from lunar soil. Refining it on the surface.
Building solar cells from materials already in the ground. Building radiators from aluminum buried in the dust.
No supply ships. No trillion-dollar cargo drops. Extract, refine, build. On site.
Musk: “You can make the radiators out of aluminum. There’s plenty of silicon and aluminum on the moon.”
The physics backs every word.
Lunar regolith is loaded with silicon and aluminum oxide. One-sixth gravity means launching finished products into orbit costs a fraction of the energy.
No atmosphere means zero drag, zero weather, zero corrosion.
For manufacturing, the moon isn’t just viable.
It’s superior to Earth.
Musk: “The chips you could send from Earth, ‘cause they’re pretty light.”
That’s a complete off-world supply chain in twelve words.
Heavy components sourced from lunar materials. Lightweight chips shipped from Earth at minimal cost.
The full framework for off-planet manufacturing, solved in a single sentence.
This isn’t a theorist speculating.
This is the man who already lands orbital rockets on ocean barges. Running supply chain math out loud in real time.
And nobody is sitting with what comes next.
If the moon becomes a manufacturing base, Earth doesn’t stay at the center of anything.
Earth becomes a chip supplier. The planet that invented writing, built every empire, launched the Enlightenment.
Reduced to a parts vendor for a lunar factory.
Every civilization in history was built on the same bet. Control land, resources, and trade routes on this planet.
Every war. Every treaty. Every border.
All fought over the same thin crust of rock and water.
Musk is the first person engineering around that entire system.
The most strategic territory in the solar system won’t be on this planet.
It’ll be a quarter million miles above it.
Whoever controls lunar manufacturing controls orbital infrastructure. Energy systems. Communication networks. Satellite constellations that blanket the planet below.
Not through military force.
Through supply chain.
The nation that builds factories on the moon doesn’t need to win wars down here.
They already hold the highest ground that’s ever existed.
And right now, one man’s company is the only operation on Earth with the launch infrastructure to make any of this real.
Built over twenty years while the rest of the industry called reusable rocketry impossible.
He didn’t build a rocket company.
He built the only road off this planet that works.
We looked at the moon for ten thousand years and saw something sacred.
One man looked up and saw a supply chain.
The poets had the moon for millennia.
The engineers just took it.
Mayor of Charlotte, NC asks that we not post about this lady murdered on a Charlotte train by a repeat offender with 14 prior arrests
I say in Iryna’s memory please share and make this go viral! A repeat offender with 14 prior arrests should not be roaming the streets of ANY city! They should be locked up!! Epic failure in the justice system..
We will never forgot her ever
New York deserves what it gets. It's a rotten city, with perverted youth population. Congratulations! A guy with no experience was able to run the wave. This city is doomed.....
It can only get worse until it gets better
