Current Trends, What You Need to KNow

 

                                                    Current Trends, What You Need to Know

                                                              Junious Ricardo Stanton


 

            Every day highly paid script/copy readers, shills, propagandists and sycophants proport to tell us the “news” however, what they are really doing is gaslighting and lying to us. Sure, some of the events they “report” are factual especially the local occurrences: fires, accidents, community events etc. but overall, the news is intentionally designed and presented from the perspective of the owner and managerial classes who need to keep us ignorant of their misconduct, objectives, agenda and how they are taking advantage of us; big time.

            For example, we are told inflation is on the rise which is true, but they are not telling us the actual causes of inflation or what inflation really is. We think inflation is rising costs for consumer goods and services which is true but that is not the cause. Inflation is a result of actions the ruling class do not want us to know about. Why? Because once we found out and we were in our right minds we would hold them accountable for their dastardly deeds and crimes against humanity.

            The truth is, inflation is caused by a rise not in prices but in the amount of money in circulation; which in a fiat system like America has, directly impacts the value of the money in circulation since it is not backed by anything tangible like gold. Western economists use what I call mumbo gumbo speak to obfuscate the reality the US economy which is based upon money, is manipulated by the central banksters. Their machinations have a direct influence on the supply of money in circulation at any given time.

 “Central banks can influence M2 supply by either issuing more money into the economy or by incentivising people to spend less. Quantitative easing is one way that a central bank can increase money supply and stimulate the economy. To reduce the supply of M2 in an economy, a central bank might issue bonds or other government-backed securities which lenders can buy; in doing so, they loan the government money. This means that a central bank’s money reserves increase at the expense of the money available in the economy. Central banks can also increase or decrease interest rates to influence M2. If interest rates are lower, borrowing will likely become more popular, which will increase the supply of money. Conversely, if interest rates rise, then the cost of borrowing will also go up which will deter people from taking out loans. This will decrease the M2 money supply in an economy.” M2 Money Supply Definition https://www.ig.com/uk/glossary-trading-terms/m2-money-supply-definition (Emphasis is mine.)

            This is why Trump was applying so much pressure on the former US central bank chair Jerome Powell; Trump wanted Powell to reduce interest rates meaning the cost of borrowing money. In effect Trump wanted to make it easier for people to get deeper in debt! `But what also was/is in play was the actual increase in the US money supply (M2) over the past few years. In fact, this increase has been humongous in the trillions of dollars.

Since 2009, the TMS money supply is now up by more than 206 percent. (M2 has grown by more than 160 percent in that period.) Out of the current money supply of $20.4 trillion, nearly 30 percent of that has been created since January 2020. Since 2009, in the wake of the global financial crisis, more than $14 trillion of the current money supply has been created. In other words, more than two-thirds of the total existing money supply have been created since the Great Recession.” Money Supply Growth in 2026 Rises to Multi Year High as the Fed Pumps New QE https://mises.org/mises-wire/money-supply-growth-2026-rises-multi-year-high-fed-pumps-new-qe (Emphasis is mine.)

            The constant rise in M2 is making existing money worth less and less; which means you need more dollars to purchase goods and services. Trump’s foolish tariffs, his misuse of tariffs and his insane war on behalf of Israel against Iran, are causing massive repercussions which negatively impact US and global economies. The loss of global trade, numerous supply chain disruptions, US dollar debasement as the central banksters print more and more dollars are making life miserable for ordinary Americans while overvalued stocks are making the ownership and managerial classes richer every day!

            Suffice it to say inflation is not going to stop or go down. Due to the wars in Iran and Ukraine there will be food, oil, chemical and petroleum-based product shortages which will affect our pocketbooks and wallets. And this is merely the tip of the spear!

 Trump has already said he is not concerned about how this affects Americans! In an earlier post I predicted the Iran war will continue and it has. Now we are looking at a perfect storm of devastating consequences that will not only smack the American Empire but the whole world; which by the way is why this is being manipulated by the powers who shouldn’t be!

Subsidizing Our Own Enslavement and Ecocide

 

                                     Subsidizing Our Own Enslavement and Ecocide

                                                            Junious Ricardo Stanton

           

There is a growing protest and resistance movement against the approval and construction of Data Centers occurring in America today. Yet for the most part the legacy and compromised social media are not reporting it or talking about it because those pushing this agenda, don’t want us to know what is going on; or how these massive data centers will negatively impact us and our immediate environment.

            The push and hype for Artificial Intelligence is self-serving, disingenuous marketing; stories about how AI is inevitable, it is so beneficial for humanity, how it is so necessary, that it will make life better for us in every way. This is really a sophisticated sales pitch for what I call our Accepted Incarceration because this is exactly what it is, us acquiescing to our own imprisonment in an all seeing technologically induced servitude.

 What do I mean by this you ask? I mean, AI is the tool the global elites will use to introduce worldwide surveillance, monitoring, intrusive spying, and a conformist infrastructure that makes George Orwell’s Big Brother seem benign and tame. Big Brother, AI and the data centers, being erected around the country’ go hand in hand together. They are part and parcel of a social control grid which will eventually allow the powers who shouldn’t be to gain complete control over our lives if you call what they have planned for us living.

The data centers will be the hubs and repositories for all the information being amassed and sent to them by hundreds of Star Link satellites, hundreds of thousands of CCTV cameras, license plate readers, facial recognition cameras, human-digital interface technology implants, drones and digitized transaction monitors aka Central Bank Digital Currency.

In other words, these data centers will be the places where all the information Big Brother is gathering about us in real time 24/7/365 will be sent, monitored, analyzed, stored and accessed by the powers who shouldn’t be to keep us under constant surveillance, in line, under control within a global technological panopticon infrastructure.

            Aside from totally eviscerating what remains of our personal privacy, these data centers will also grab thousands of acres of land, use massive amounts of electricity and energy which we will pay for (not the data center owners) as well as divert millions of gallons of fresh water to cool the servers and other AI technology which will destroy the pristine natural environment and prioritize these centers over the needs of nature and humans! 

This process will place an inordinate strain on communities’ water resources and because of the heat generated by these servers in the centers, will actually raise the temperature of the surrounding areas and neighborhoods from 3.6 degrees to as much as 16.4 degrees Fahrenheit within a six-mile radius!

            The full confinement network has not yet been established or placed Online yet but many communities are up in arms because of the huge increases in their utility bills and the disruption and environmental devastation the construction is causing. This is just the beginning. Keep in mind this is merely the early stage of their agenda.

The powers who shouldn’t be are also planning massive reductions in the global population and these centers will enable them to surveil, monitor and connect to those who survive their wars, induced famines and food shortages, ecocide, vaccines, disruptive economic fluctuations and social disintegration who are tethered to their digital interface system. It’s all part of the Great Reset/New World Order they are assiduously pushing.

Resist, fight back!

Trump's Trip to China, Debunking the Spin

 

                                  Trump’s Trip to China, Debunking the Spin

                                                      Junious Ricardo Stanton



        

Donald Trump and an entourage of prominent business titans visited China last week from May 13-15.  Of course, Trump touted the trip as an extremely successful event, claiming great progress was made establishing greater partnerships between the US and China. But did that really happen, is Trump telling the truth and what if anything come out of his visit to China?

What we know is true is Donald Trump,  US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, US Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent and US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth with a retinue of tech, finance and business people such as  Elon Mush (Tesla, SpaceX) Tim Cook CEO of Apple, Jensen Huang CEO of Nvidia, Larry Fink CEO Blackrock, Kelly Orterg CEO of Boeing, David Solomon CEO of Goldman Sachs, Sanja Mehrotra CEO of Micron, Jane Fraser CEO of CITI, Ryan McInerney CEO of VISA, Michael Micbach CEO of Mastercard, Dina Powell McCormick President of META his son Eric Trump and several others accompanied Trump anticipating making progress in accomplishing several key goals and objectives

Their aims were to: 1) resolve the issue of rare earth minerals. China maintains a virtual global monopoly on these minerals which are crucial to modern life providing the main components for smart devices, military and high-tech items. Unless there were some super-secret meetings and negotiations of the Deep State kind going on behind the scenes, there was no mention of rare earth agreements or MOUs following the two-day meetings. It was almost as if they went to China and came away empty handed, unless of course there were secret meetings going on behind the scenes, (wink wink). 2) Open China to additional foreign investment, gain access to China for US banking, finance and tech markets and partnerships.  Open dialogue about Chinses electric vehicles, come to an agreement on fentanyl and its components,  3)Secure help from Xi Jinping to resolve the Strait of Hormuz impasse and assistance for some type of settlement of the Iran War.

But there were no announcements about China opening up its internal markets to US banking, financial or tech companies nor was anything mentioned about Chinese companies partnering with any of these CEOs on joint ventures, collaborations or strategic partnerships! Nothing whatsoever. Trump did say China promised to invest several billions of dollars into US projects and ventures but the Chinese were strangely silent on this matter. Trump said the Chinese promised to purchase more US soybeans and agricultural products as well as two hundred US Boeing commercial aircraft. Yet no formal agreements or contracts were signed!

I hate to be a Debbie Downer but, the US is no longer China’s main supplier of soybeans. China went elsewhere after Trump imposed outrageous tariffs on China during his first administration. China refusing to be intimidated or browbeat went to Brazil and Argentina instead, for their soybeans. This forced Trump to regroup, rethink his trade and currency policies and beg the Chinese to start buying US soybeans again!

None of this is new news. All of this information is on the public record in the public domain. Nothing was announced about President Xi Jinping agreeing to help Trump settle the Strait of Hormuz deadlock nor resolving the fallout from the US/Israel aggression against Iran. So, what if anything came out of this trip? It appears Xi Jinping is not about to interrupt Trump or bail him out while he is shooting himself in the foot.

What Xi Jinping did do was remind Trump about the Thucydides Trap which was a not-so-subtle rebuke. In effect Xi Jinping was telling Trump China is a rising power on par with the US which is a declining power; as the world clearly sees following Trump’s disastrous war of choice against Iran. Jinping also warned Trump not to interfere or publicly reference China’s internal politics and Xi was adamant about China’s red line against US interference with Taiwan reunification.  Trump got spanked in front of the whole world! But both men did agree to meet later in the year in the US.

In a face-saving spin, Trump claimed China agreed to purchase more US crude oil but again, no formal agreements were signed! But even if this was true, what most Westerners don’t know is, China has diversified its energy sources, China uses more coal, it has a massive oil reserve and it is building numerous nuclear-powered plants.

China is never going to allow itself to be dependent upon any other nation especially not a Western one! As far as trade goes, China wants to trade with the whole world not just the West. Here’s the kicker, the US only accounts for about 8.8% of China’s total global trade, that’s less than 10% and Trump’s foolish tariffs and trade wars have jeopardized that! The Southeast Asian Nations block accounts for 16.5% and the EU totals 13.1% both are larger portions of China’s trading partnerships although not in total dollars compared to the US.

Trump’s trip unless there were substantive secret meetings on the side was a nothing burger. In the final analysis it was more spin (BS) than substance.

Here We Go Again

 

                                                                Here We Go Again

                                                              Junious Ricardo Stanton



            For the past few weeks, we’ve been bombarded by the mainstream media about a supposedly “new” lethal virus in tones that actually contradict themselves. One part of the message says it is a deadly virus, another one says, not so. The corporate media is doing their best Chicken Little act to ramp up fear and anxiety about what they are calling the Andes strain of the Hantavirus which infected several people on the cruise ship the MV Hondius. Three people have died; three out of a total passenger manifest of 150, three! All life is precious but we mustn’t allow the media to hype us for no real reason. Three people is just two percent of the passengers on the ship! It’s less when you consider 34 other passengers disembarked the ship in the Atlantic Islands prior to arriving at the Canary Islands.

            Didn’t we learn anything from the COVID hysteria? It’s almost as if history is repeating itself! In addition to the three confirmed dead there were eight other passengers who were either suspected or confirmed. Then the World Health Organization got involved. They held a press conference and just like 2019 they started messaging about the Andes Hantavirus. But this time there was no panic, no rush to judgment no announcement of a global health crisis. This time, the message was don’t panic this is not COVID. 

But my question is if this is true, why all the hype, why all the coverage, why mention a handful of passengers being taken off the ship and put into secure quarantined facilities? There are nine billion people on this planet, why is the media focusing on and talking about a virus that impacted a dozen or so people out of billions?! Are the powers who shouldn’t be playing mind games with us? I think so.

  I suggest you read these articles posted at https://www.theburningplatform.com/2026/05/12/the-wrong-virus/#more-408552 and https://brownstone.org/articles/the-hantavirus-panic-machine-when-rare-diseases-become-media-theater/, https://off-guardian.org/2026/05/07/quick-take-hantavirus-cruise-ship-weirdness/  They offer interesting insights, ideas and patterns about the psychological manipulation going on and the ancillary shenanigans misanthropes in the COVID scam like: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, the legacy media and the World Health Organization are currently engaged in.  They provide food for thought explaining how the Hantavirus is not, I repeat not, a major threat to humans at this time.

Hantaviruses are extremely rare. There is an old saying, fool me once shame on you; fool me twice shame on me. Don’t allow the media to dupe you again. Fortunately, thus far, the Hantavirus scare has proven to be a bust, just like the Monkey Pox (which was renamed Mpox) hysteria that fizzled out a few years ago. The Hantavirus may turn out to be just a distraction from all that is going on: inflation, the war, socio engineering etc.  so don’t fall for the okey-doke again.

 Early on and during the COVID scam, I kept trying to get people to think for themselves, to read, research, scrutinize and analyze what we were being told and reflect on the fact there were over eight billion people on this planet at that time, but COVID was only impacting a miniscule number of people globally. Yet the numbers the government and media were spewing were rigged and manipulated in such a way as to reinforce their claims of a global pandemic! COVID was not as threatening as the media and government made out. I suggest you not allow the media to hype a non-existent incident and create an environment of fear and anxiety.

I warned about the false notion a vaccine could be researched, developed, tested and definitively proven effective only in a few months rather than the usual time frame in the US which took ten to fifteen years! Do you remember Operation Warp Speed? It was total BS. The truth is, mRNA vaccines were developed years before SARS-COV-2 the so called “novel Coronavirus” aka COVID-19 appeared on the scene. They were developed as treatments for cancer but they were shelved because the lab animals kept dying in large numbers!

Then along came COVID-19. Despite the fact mRNA vaccines were not adequately tested, they were pushed on us accompanied by a massive fear, propaganda and pressure campaign to make comply and get the shots. This was done despite warnings which were severely censored and suppressed by the government and Big Pharma. Credible scientists, researchers and investigators spoke out saying, there had not been enough study and due diligence on these concoctions; nevertheless, the government rushed the “vaccines’ to market. Oh, by the way Moderna as a company prior to getting the COVID contract had never developed, received approval for a patent or marketed any products in its ten-year existence!  https://sensereceptornews.com/?p=3751 Let that sink in for a moment.

Now the chickens are coming home to roost. Study after study is revealing just how harmful those concoctions are. https://www.science.org/content/article/rare-dangerous-side-effects-some-covid-19-vaccines-explained,  https://www.globalresearch.ca/mrna-vaccines-severe-neurological-damage-genomic-integration-turbo-cancer/5905141, https://dailysceptic.org/2022/05/05/serious-adverse-effects-of-covid-vaccines-40-times-higher-than-recorded-by-government-german-scientist-says/ , https://off-guardian.org/2023/06/01/cool-the-mark-out-how-the-media-minimizes-covid-vaccine-injurieshttps://sensereceptornews.com/?p=18403/ ,

We must learn from our experiences and do better whenever we can. Do not fall for the Andes Hantavirus flim-flam.

The War Will Resume

 

                                                                  The War Will Continue

                                                                   Junious Ricardo Stanton


..

 

            Viewing current events, it appears the ruling elites, the people who really run this country and world, are doing everything in their power to sink the American Empire and reduce it to the hung heap of history. Why do you say this you ask? Because everywhere we look we see chaos, confusion, consternation, distraction, deceit and mind-numbing mis and malfeasance have become the norm. The government and media lie, they tell us the economy is doing well, they expect us to believe Wall Street and Main Street are the same, that Wall Street’s uptick is also happening on Main Street, that inflation is transitory, America is winning the war against Iran and we should be ready to celebrate the two hundred fiftieth anniversary of the founding of this nation in July!

            The gaslighting and lies are at tsunami strength and energy levels; if we don’t think for ourselves, we will be permanently bamboozled and lobotomized into falling for their Bizzaro World okey-doke. For example, take the war in Iran, Trump is telling us the US is winning, the US and Israel have obliterated Iran’s war making capacities and crippled its ability to fight back. But the reality on the ground is, prior to the ceasefire, Iran was pounding Israel relentlessly, hitting Gulf state allies who host military bases in the region with devastating accuracy and inflicting massive infrastructural damage on all of them. 

Trump and Netanyahu, in their arrogance and hubris, thought their sneak attacks and decapitations would render Iran fully discombobulated, in total disarray, that their attempted color revolution would topple the regime and they could install compliant compradors as their vassals.  The warmongers thought their initial attacks would be so devastating, Iran would collapse, crumble and capitulate.

Alas, they thought wrong! Iran circumvented the CIA and Mossad’s color revolution by disconnecting the country’s Internet and blocking the Starlink satellite signals the CIA and Mossad were sending to their provocateurs inside Iran. The protests immediately fell apart and fizzled. This enabled Iran to track, locate, arrest and neutralize them as they needed to do to preserve their national security and sovereignty.

Iran has ingeniously changed the rules of engagement and innovated modern warfare against a superior arrogant military force. By designing and manufacturing thousands of low-cost military drones and highly accurate supersonic missiles Iran has successfully neutralized the advantages the US and Israel presupposed they had! Iran has destroyed the GCC’s early detection radar and defense systems provided by the US; thus, rendering them defenseless against Iran’s blistering attacks!

Now the US can’t protect the GCC and they see Israel is America’s top priority which will not bode well for the US as this war rages on or when it finally ends. The Iranians have rendered US aircraft carriers totally ineffective due to their fear of Iranian missiles and drones! If Iran destroyed a US aircraft carrier in the region, it would be a devastating psychological blow to the US Empire. The US hypes their aircraft carriers as their invincible global projection of military force; if one or several were destroyed that would be catastrophic for the American Empire’s image.

 Trump is so desperate to extricate himself from this fiasco, he had to press for a ceasefire because of the immense pressure Iran has put on the global oil, LNG, petrochemical trade supply chains! The economic aspect has proven to be Iran’s trump card and they are playing it to the hilt! Iran has Trump over the proverbial barrel with his pants down around his ankles. Trump’s options are limited so in his frustration don’t be surprised if he resumes military action.

The fact Iran survived the massive assaults on its leadership, civilian infrastructure and Iran has fought back so valiantly totally surprised the Israeli and American aggressors who thought this war would be a wham- bam type operation. Iran’s lethal military and economic strategies have shaken Trump to his core. He is unable to rally NATO, Europe, Japan or any of his erstwhile allies to come to his aid. (One reason is his trade wars and tariffs against them have come back to bite him) This has also devasted his narcissistic psyche.

 The economic shock coupled with Iran’s uncompromising resilience have taken the bully’s heart. Now Trump is trying to find a way to extricate himself from his war of choice.  But Israel will not allow it! Israel is seething, the ceasefire is a major setback for them, even though they are being pounded relentlessly (and rightly so) by Iran, Hezbollah and the Houthis.

Nevertheless, Netanyahu is itching to resume the bombing. He is livid Trump demanded Israel stop bombing Lebanon even though Hezbollah is enjoying a high success rate against the IDF and putting up a courageous fight against the IDF interlopers.

Israel, the US Neocons and US Christian Zionists are eager to resume the conflict! So don’t be surprised if and when Israel violates the Lebanon ceasefire or conducts a false flag operation to make folks think Iran did it to get their war started again in earnest. The Israeli warmongers have an insatiable bloodlust as their history has demonstrated. But Trump is also liable to do something stupid to resume hostilities.

 I would love to be incorrect about this issue but based upon America and Israel’s histories, I believe it’s only a matter of time before this war restarts. Time will tell.

The Gaslighting Is So Intense, It's Getting Hard to Keep Up

 

                                     The Gaslighting Is So Intense, It’s Hard to Keep Up

                                                           Junious Ricardo Stanton



           

Several years ago, the term gaslighting became a fixture in our popular vocabulary, it’s an older term which dates back to a 1938 stage play called Angel Street and a 1944 motion picture based upon the play named Gaslight. The play and film’s plot were a husband’s attempts to drive his wife crazy, to make her doubt herself, to thoroughly confuse her so he could put her in an insane asylum and steal her fortune.

 Gaslight and gaslighting became popular terms in the mid 2000’s. “Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse where a person causes someone to question their sanity, memories, or perception of reality. People who experience gaslighting may feel confused, anxious, or unable to trust themselves…Gaslighting is a method of gaining control over someone else. It works by breaking down a person’s trust in themselves while increasing how much they trust or depend on the abusive person.” https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/gaslighting

            We are being subjected to a massive gaslighting campaign on a daily basis, non-stop every day 24/7/365 by the media, the government, corporations and their flunkies; who lie to us, manipulate our perceptions, attempt to construct an alternative reality and constantly foist it upon us. It is a devious form of mind control. In mind control the perpetrators attempt to manipulate the targets’ perceptions, they want to influence our ideation so we think the ideas and images they bombard us with are our own and they want to redirect our thinking and behaviors in ways that benefit them to the detriment of the targets; which is us.

            In 2026 the gaslighting campaign is rapid fire, it comes at us so thick and intensive it is hard to keep up; it’s a literal barrage a tsunami of BS all the time. We have not only been conditioned to tolerate and accept it, unfortunately we are actively engaged in facilitating our own craziness by consuming the BS, buying the gadgets and gizmos and becoming addicted to the content and programming the powers who shouldn’t be use to gaslight us!

            For example, Israel is currently conducting a campaign of genocide in Gaza which they tell the world is “defense,” that they are responding to attacks upon them by Hamas on October 7, 2023. For decades prior to October 7, Israel claimed Hamas was a terrorist organization but the fact of the matter is Israel helped create and fund Hamas to serve as a counterweight to the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO)!  https://www.analystnews.org/posts/how-israel-helped-prop-up-hamas-for-decades.

 The other fact we are programmed to ignore is Gaza is one of the most heavily surveilled, monitored and guarded locations on the planet. It is a virtual open-air panopticon environment! The Israeli spy apparatus can detect a rat pissing on cotton! Yet the Israelis gaslight us to believe Hamas launched a “surprise attack” on them on October 7, 2023!? In a Freudian slip they even said it was their 9-11.

 The Israelis claim any criticism of their genocidal campaign against the Palestinians and Gaza is Anti-Semitism. This is gaslighting pure and simple! The repetitive gaslighting has many people questioning their interpretation of the images coming out of Gaza showing the obvious destruction and murder of countless innocent men, women and children who have nothing to do with Hamas. This is collective punishment which is a war crime!

Meanwhile here at home the Trump Administration is constantly gaslighting us. Trump tells us inflation is under control, that his tariffs and trade wars are benefitting America when in fact, they are clearly backfiring and causing major harm, stress and strain to American households. Plus, the US Supreme Court ruled them unconstitutional!

Trump tells us he is winning the war in Iran a war he and Israel launched despite the irrefutable fact Iran posed no threat to either the US or Israel and the attacks were launched during active negotiations between the US and Iran designed to resolve long standing issues. Trump’s perfidy compounded the fact he launched an unprovoked attack on a nation which posed no threat to the US nor had not attacked America or its allies!

But that changed immediately after Israel and Trump attacked Iran. Iran retaliated immediately by hitting Israel and the Gulf States who hosted US military bases and installations hard with devastating accuracy, severely damaging or destroying the radar, communications structures, air fields and assorted infrastructural targets. Iran kept up the barrages even after suffering serve damage and attacks on its own facilities. For Iran this is an existential struggle, a fight to the death against The Great Satan and its lackies.

Yet the US Congress quibbles over the fact Trump didn’t consult them before he launched this unprovoked attack on Iran. There is no mention of the wrongfulness of the attacks nor the immorality of the assaults especially during active negotiations or the fact Trump is currently engaged in acts of piracy in international waters against Venezuela and now Iran! Where is the Congressional outrage, the moral indignation? Instead, we get more calls to resume the war, to obliterate Iran.

It is obvious the gaslighting will continue nonstop; we have to prepare ourselves for the onslaught. What can we do? Stop consuming media! Assert yourself, think for yourself, use best judgement, discernment and intuition to shape your opinions and worldview! We are not Zombies or mindless dolts, we have agency, the power to control our own thoughts and minds; don’t relinquish your power for the BS.

Things Are Getting Wackier Every Day

 

                                Things Are Getting Wackier Every Day

                                             Junious Ricardo Stanton


...

            It seems things are getting crazier and wackier by the day. Every day Trump makes a more bizarre statement than the day before, not just about Iran but everything. It’s as if he is playing a game with people’s minds to see just how much more we can take. Trump and Netanyahu launched and unprovoked war against Iran a nation that has not initiated hostile actions against its neighbors since it’s war with Iraq, a war that was fomented by the United States in 1980, yet the US mind control apparatus continues to promote the dastard canard on behalf of the US Empire, US the Military Industrial Complex and Israel Iran is a threat to world peace!

Comparing a map of Israel from 1948 when it was first carved into existence to the present and reflecting on the rogue nation’s hostility and territorial expansions via violence and hubris no sane person believes the Israeli prompted attack on Iran is about security and peace. It was part of a much larger overarching agenda to use the US as its henchman to establish Zionist hegemony within the region. It was never about security it was always about expansion.

 Israel and the notion of peaceful coexistence with its neighbors is an oxymoron, a cognitive incongruity which contradicts reality and the regional history of the last seventy-eight years.  Israel was the prime actor in creating mischief and mayhem in the region and using Uncle Sam to back their aggression by supplying funds, arms and military might to get what Israel wanted, and to also pacify the region for the US Empire.

            Iran knows it is in an existential do or die stand tall or be conquered conflict and like any rational self-respecting nation they have made the decision to do what is in their best interests and execute whatever is necessary the ensure their survival against psychopathic aggressors who want to dominate them, the region and the world! As such they realized they could not fight and head on face-to-face war with Israel and the United States. They prepared for decades and when the US and Israel savagely and ruthlessly attacked them in June of 2025 Iran, even though they were originally caught off guard due to US perfidy and deception, they were ready able and determined to fight back, hard.  So much so that when they penetrated Israel’s vaunted Iron Doom and Israel took heavy losses and damage; to the point Netanyahu pressed Trump to seek a ceasefire, which he did. Iran showed the world they were no pushovers despite having their leaders, scientists and military higher up murdered by the US and Israel.

             Now Trump is in a pickle, as a narcissist he has to try to convince the world he is winning even though it is obvious to everyone he is not. Trump knows the economic damage Iran is causing is coming back to haunt him politically, economically and image wise. He and his acolytes are like city slickers visiting a farm who have stepped into a pile of cow dung and they are trying to shake it off their shoes and get the stink off themselves but to no avail.

            The US military is in a soft revolt; they know Trump doesn’t know what he is doing. The US tried to bum rush the Iranian uranium stockpile in a Special Ops raid, which failed, the US Navy and its vaunted aircraft carriers have been reduced to bystander status and the Strait of Hormuz situation (and the potential Bab al-Mandeb Strait choke) has Trump over the proverbial barrel. The global economy is tittering on the brink of crisis; what is Trump to do? Trump ever the showman initiated his own “blockade” of Hormuz and is desperately resorting to piracy in international waters to make himself look tough. The US Navy recently interdicted a Chinese ship in international waters, how is this going to turn out?

            Meanwhile in Europe thirty countries are now meeting to try to come up with a military solution to the Strait of Hormuz situation. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/uk-france-lead-30-nation-military-push-reopen-strait-hormuz. What happens if Europe sends their militaries into the conflict? What will Iran do? What will Russia and China do?

            The other major issue is the wars in Ukraine and Iran are revolutionizing warfare both Iran and Ukraine have developed effective and efficient low-cost drone weaponry that is making it easier for them to wage war against nations who spend way more on weapons than they do! What will this mean for future wars? Iran has already neutralized the US aircraft carriers, its Tomahawk and defensive missile stockpiles, to the chagrin of Israel and the US GCC allies; this is a huge development! Stay tuned things are getting wackier by the day.
