…and so we have a ceasefire.
Maybe.
Sort of.
Like every other aspect of the war we’ve seen play out – from the reason it started, to what is actually happening, to which side is winning – the the ceasefire is clouded in ambiguity.
The exact terms terms have yet to be released, or rather both sides have claimed contradictory terms…

…and even who brokered it is a matter of contention, with officials from the Us crediting Pakistan and others citing China’s influence.
The US – through Secretary of War Pete Hegseth – is claiming total victory. They say Iran “begged” for the ceasefire.
Contrariwise, those cheering for #TeamIran are calling it the greatest US military humiliation since Vietnam, and that Trump has been ritually embarrassed. In the Daily Mail, Dan Hodges says Trump just lost the war, and he’s far from alone in that sentiment.
Israel, for their part, were apparently not involved in the process at all – and, indeed, has yet to cease firing at anyone or anything. A decision which is already supposedly endangering the agreement.
Iran is still firing too, according the Gulf states, allegedly striking various sites across the region earlier today.
Trump says Lebanon wasn’t included. Iran seems to think it was.
And the Strait of Hormuz isn’t open yet.
Or it was, briefly, but then Iran closed it again twenty minutes ago because of Israel striking Lebanon, which wasn’t included but might have been.
Either way, Iran was still planning on firing on any ships that pass through without permission. But the US Navy may be helping to escort ships through, if they pay the fee to Iran in Chinese Yuan and/or crypto.
Except Oman says there will be no fees at all because that would be illegal.
Maybe.
To sum up…
- The ceasefire has yet to result in the cessation of firing.
- It may or may not have been brokered by Pakistan and/or China.
- It may or may not include Lebanon.
- The Strait of Hormuz is open again, as long as you pay the fees which may or may not exist in either Yuan or Crypto.
- Except it’s also closed again already.
- And both sides won, but also lost.
So what can we conclude from all this?

Lets not forget Rutte refers to Trump as Daddy, I’d imagine he gave Rutte – ( a grovelling little shit), a right mouthful worse than he gave to the Neo-Nazi dictator Zelensky – no doubt Rutte replied : Oh Daddy’s upset.
“US President Donald Trump unleashed a “tirade of insults” at NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte during their meeting at the White House on Wednesday, Politico has reported, citing European officials.
Rutte’s trip to Washington followed weeks of Trump’s criticism of NATO over its reluctance to join the US-Israeli war against Iran and warnings about possible American withdrawal from the bloc.
The US president used the talks, which happened behind closed doors, to vent his frustration with European NATO members, Politico said in an article on Thursday.
“It went sh*t,” one European official told the outlet, adding that Trump had badmouthed Rutte and “apparently threatened to do just about anything.””
Here’s a question, why is all media and talking heads playing up Iran’s so-called “hypersonic” missile capability and at the same time playing down the US hypersonic missile capability?
I think I know.
It’s not looking good.
“Reports of the Iranian delegation arriving in Islamabad are false, and negotiations are suspended until Israel agrees to a ceasefire in Lebanon” – Tasnim news reports”
And.
“Kamal Kharazi, head of the Iranian Strategic Council for Foreign Relations, has died from injuries sustained in an Israeli airstrike during the war. He was heading negotiations with U.S. through Pakistan — IRNA”
What airstrike was this? On what? How much damage was sustained? How many other casualties?
There’s something weird about how many leaders are supposed to be dead on the Iranian side, with in most cases no details of what infrastructure they were in or how damaged they are. And all the street scenes in Tehran look relatively normal, certainly not carpet bombed, which was what everyone was calling it a few weeks ago.
I am wondering if they’re not really dead and it’s a story to get the Iranian people more on side, or if the elites are using the cover of war to get rid of inconvenient people who are rivals or don’t want to play whatever games are being played.
I always thought old Sulemeini’s murder could of been an agreement between the US and his opponents in Iran. For sure their “revenge” was a bit bloody pathetic.
Yes rumours says so too. Its an agreed internal purge. They want some special groups out for a longer term gain.
It looks like they want gay Liberals in everywhere.
Money talks. That is the advantage of long-term hostility and embargos to keep the majority in the enemy nation poor. Even effective Russian generals were murdered in Moscow. It is also why the Rabid Empire finds China to be an existential threat.
Interesting point of view on it, I’ll keep and open mind on that.
My oh my but I got a shock rocking up here this morning to see a veritable infestation of “brave new world of multipolarity” talking points festooning the comments. A couple of yez have been very busy. We’ve got everything from “funny” Trump videos spontaneously crafted by those lovely 99%-supporting Iranian good guy elites, to handy lists of the mainstream talking points about why US losing the war is both totally organic and not suss at all.
It’s like reading the Guardian or a really backwards Reddit sub.
Come on fellas tone it down a bit fer godsake.
Baby Trump takes Melania on a Date
Jaysus Penelope, are you a one-woman lowest common denominator mainstream propaganda feed? I expect better trolling on an OffG thread! I’ll be asking for my money back.
IMO THE WAR’S OVER.
I’ve been listening attentively to retired military describe the exact limitations of US forces and weapons technology. Not only is it impossible for the US military to achieve any one of its objectives; but it is so OBVIOUSLY impossible that there’s nothing US can gain.
Next escalation by US wd have made Trump and possibly his military accomplices war criminals. And Iran’s promised response wd have crippled the global economy. I think TPTB have decided that the results of THAT are a little too unpredictable for them. My personal fear was that they intended to produce that worldwide hardship.
So, I welcome the Strait of Iran.
Be sure to see the Iranian lego video lampooning Trump

That makes no sense. One minute the US is carpet-bombing poor defenceless Iran and destroying its navy in a day, the next it can’t hope to win because of “limitations of US forces and weapons technology”.
This is some prime bollocks. US has some of the best weapons technology in the world. About the only nation that could equal it is Russia. There is literally no way in the world the US would not be physically capable of defeating Iran, if it really wanted to.
Whatever that retired military was saying was just techno-babble rubbish to cover the fact the US is intentionally throwing it, just like Russia has been doing in Ukraine.
It’s a bunch of different retired military w different specialties.
Did you hear about the latest failure? It was presented as “successfully rescuing a downed pilot.” It wasn’t. ‘Pears it was an attempt to enter an airshaft to one of the enriched uranium sites & blow it up. They lost at least 2 planes and 2 small helicopters in that one, it was a complete failure, and likely there were casualties.
Military technology has progressed, but ours hasn’t. There’s no evidence that the US is intentionally blowing it– except I don’t understand why the bases weren’t defended– cuz not having them as forward bases did a lot towards crippling US capabilities.
There’s only one person who says we can take the Strait of Iran– and that man appears to be crazy. Did you hear about the long email diatribe that he gave against 4 media personalities?
His threat to wipe an entire country off the map is FINALLY getting real talk about the 25th amendment.
I don’t care how many paid talking heads go on the boob tube to talk bollocks, it’s still bollocks.
Anyone with military training or common sense knows you can’t close a narrow sea strait with coastal defences unless you also have air power and a NAVY. And if you don’t control the sky you’re bollocked.
Everyone is telling us Iran doesn’t have an air force worth spit and they’re also telling us it has lost most of its big war ships.
The US has state of the art supersonic and hypersonic guided missiles and jets that could inhibit and probably take out most of the coastal defences which absent a navy and air power would leave the strait wide open.
The bollocks being talked in the media is just cover for why they aren’t doing that. End of.
Why is it suddenly the “strait of Iran” and not Hormuz, which has been its name for about 700 years? Iran doesn’t even control both sides of it. One side is controlled by Oman. Hormuz is an ancient name with MEANING. That renaming sounds like more insensitive regionally tone deaf “multipolar” positioning language to me.
Let’s not talk sacrilege like evil Communists. The imperial dept. of defence or war won’t be shut down just because it failed every audit (about 10 years ago, the sum missing was ~$25 trillion). The defence/war contractors needs all the support available to turn a profit from duds, even with lobbyists, covert contracts, rising prices, diplomats doing sales work, field testing by US military and long lists of failed specs.
Some people are obsessed with gold. Similarly, enriched uranium would be “taking candy from a baby” to Trump’s high-IQ leadership. I doubt they would blow it up. And how did all the previous tries with vaunted bunker-buster bombs go?
And here’s Pete Hegseth’s lampooning– direct from Iran.
This doesn’t exactly help negotiations, but some guy in Iran knows all the dirt on Hegseth.
This is pretty nasty actually– but next to KILLING people. . . .
It appears to me that everyone is making up their own set of facts, and nobody is acting like an honest broker. Where is the published ceasefire agreement with the signatures of the people that are empowered to enter into such an agreement? Until I see one, I consider it all prime time TV drama designed to do one simple thing: polarize people into diametrically opposed camps so that they are focused on the ‘bad guys’ and don’t look behind the curtain.
You nailed it. It’s unbelievable how easy it is to get people to suspend judgement and just believe anything you tell them even if it totally contradicts what you told them yesterday!
Have people just forgotten what the real world used to look like? When ceasefires would be announced officially by negotiators and the details published? When world leaders didn’t tweet stupid insults at each other like a couple of celebrities trying to get on the cover of Hello magazine.
It’s not real! It’s a dumbed down performance for our benefit while all the real back and forth goes on behind closed doors and we never hear about it.
God knows what the real plan is. I can believe it’s about Agenda 2030 and all the rest, but I’m not an expert. I do know about war though, and nothing about the wars post-covid makes any sense. Like I said before I think they are 10% action and 90% made up news stories to make them seem a lot bigger than they are.
And if US generals are saying the US can’t win they’re just lying to cover the fact the US is throwing it for some reason.
Name a war since WWII that we’ve won.
Well they (I’m a Brit) wiped out most of Iraq twice and then occupied it. They toasted Libya too and could have taken Syria if the Russians hadn’t warned them off.
Vietnam and Afghanistan are different because they were guerrilla land wars against an entire population that are hard to win even with hardware superiority. We tried to subdue Afghanistan in the 19th century and the Soviets tried in the 80’s. No one ever succeeded.
Can’t compare that with what’s going on in Iran though. It’s not a guerrilla war, it’s not a boots on ground war, and it’s not about taking territory atm, it’s a straight up hardware battle, and the US has the superior kit.
They could disable or contain the coastal defences, they already control the sky and have superiority at sea. Keeping the strait open would be relatively easy – IF they really wanted to do it.
But that’s not the script is it. Just like Russia taking Kiev in three days wasn’t the script, so Putin turned his army round and sent them home. These are 90% phony wars that follow planned stories not military logic. Only thing that makes sense at this juncture.
The Iran Cease-Fire is the doing of the liberal traitors, probably cryptos, who wish the defeat and destruction of Iran. The people or Iran, the real people, oppose cease-fires categorically, demonstrating–under fire–for the utter destruction of Israel. So I guess one faction of the Iran government is in the famous cahoots. I don’t think the IRGC is, though, at least not all of it, and they are ready to fight to the death.
ANTI-WAR
–Turkish convoy condemns ‘lawless aggression’ of the US and IsraelHundreds of vehicles have driven through Istanbul to condemn the ‘lawless aggression’ of the US and Israel. The convoy, carrying Palestinian and Turkish flags, is calling for international accountability in light of relentless attacks on Lebanon, Iran and Gaza.
–Democrats trying to rejuvenate a War Powers vote.
The Turkish government will ignore them.
How about the power-mad, hypocritical, ruthless and dangerous (to neighbouring nations) Erdogan stepping down?
Couple bits of War news:
–Pepe says he can’t confirm it, but the story is 3 Chinese Cargo planes went to Iran last night to resupply vital war materiel.
–Another element to both wars– Iran & Ukraine– is both locales are sites of elements of belt-road infrastructure. US is a maritime power & lord of the seas. Goods that are transported by land are less to be lorded over.
–Iran’s ambassador to Pakistan, Reza Amiri Moghadam, said in a post on X on Thursday that a “delegation arrives tonight in Islamabad for serious talks based on 10 points proposed by Iran”. However, he later deleted the post. Emblematic!
Talks are bad. The only hope for Iran is war until the utter destruction of its enemies.
Iran doesn’t have missiles to reach the US– and we ARE the ones attacking it.
Off-Guardian is out front on this topic as they always are.They get it , bur man
so many people in the comments are so far behind the pace of events they don’t even seem to understand what OG is saying.
All this obsessing over personalities and Trump this and Bibi that and evil Israel and the empire’s dying.
No, man, no. It’s all performance.
Bibi is being cast as the villain right now and he comes on stage shaking his fist and murdering kids for no reason so 99% of the world hate his guts. Trump is the toxic clown we laugh at and also are disgusted by. Putin & Xi are the wise grown ups we’re supposed to admire. Iran is the tragic victim of the two villains.
It’s a play is all. And the evidence for it is right in front of our eyes, but people don’t want to see it.They want to stick with the ideas they’re familiar with. But while people are stuck in this fake reality they’re not able to defend themselves against what’s coming our way.
Sounds like you need to learn a bit more about zionism and who Nutandyahoo really is. And who the fuck is saying Putin and Xi are the wise grownups we’re supposed to admire?
I am among those who says both Putin and Xi are better alternative personalities than the gay garbage we have in West: https://www.helleniscope.com/2024/08/19/putin-russia-will-be-a-safe-haven-for-those-who-escape-western-values/
I actually saw almost those exact words said about Xi in some mainstream paper a while back. Might have been the NYT
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is like your typical christian.
I would say he is more like a fanatical evangelical christian – also unqualified for his job and mentally unhinged, and problems with alcohol. Apparently he thinks women should not have the vote, but it should be one vote for each household headed by a man.
Need I say more?
Hegseth pretend he is Christian to get praise among the large crowd of religious nut jobs in US. Shoeonhead presents them here in the last half part of her video.

No he isn’t. He is a typical sociopathic tattooed kid. Like all of them with their skateboards and backwards baseball hats.

‘A ceasefire’ is a face-saving exit for the US and its puppet state Israel. There was a similar tactic with Ukraine. Probably the Saudis told the US to desist, hence the meeting with Starmer today.
No it isn’t. It is a trick. Iran should refuse as it has been. Iran should not negotiate with terrorists.
OPERATION EPIC STUPIDITY
I think the Trump Administration, a “savage being”, has been allowed, without any provocation, unconstitutionally and unlawfully, to obliterate Iran civilian infrastructure and murder residents, committing an endless list of war crimes and immoral, unconscionable acts that turn Iran into a permanent enemy and a country that rightly deserves reparations from the US to pay for restoration of damage and compensate families of the dead. The Congress and US government, as a whole, is responsible for allowing this psychotic madman and his Administration to act without Congressional and Public Approval before bombing. The day prior to attack, Iran had agreed many conditions in joint peace negotiations. This violent attack forced Iran to fight back the only way it could by attacking it’s allies’ capitalist infrastructure. The US has 800 bases with worldwide reach to aggress anyone on Earth. Iran is uniquely geographically positioned to assert control over the Hormuz Strait and strangle Western global capitalism in response, now threatening the fluid operation of global commerce, affecting the well being of humanity. The UN, a global world body supposedly for the purpose of global well being, has no collectively agreed ability to stop unprovoked aggression by a member state. If “globalism” is of any value, the first act of the UN would be to assure a non-violent, world peace compliance, with crushing punishment for violator states. The UN and world elite are also responsible for this one-way WAR. All the elite worldwide are complicit.
Both the US government functionality and the UN governing agreed upon functionality are totally dysfunctional, giving any act by members or their officials, operate under plausible deniability, an ambiguous state where no one can be found guilty and subject to punishment. Both systems need radical redesign. All foreign military bases, by any country, must be banned.
This IRAN WAR ACTION now creates a permanent plausibly deniable enemy of the US who can be identified as the cause of anything desired by US elite. Like 911-2. Or heaven knows what else. The US is the world’s worst terrorist state with Israel a close second.

At least the suiciders are saving the money to do it.
I’d guess that since the US isn’t in a formal alliance with Israel its quite possible for the US and Iran to agree a ceasefire leaving Israel to figure out what it wants to do. Obviously this may not happen in real life because its been clear for years that Israel is controlling US policy but its also possible that US lawmakers might notice that there’s been a sea change in the public’s attitude to Israel since it went openly Full Genocide so they might be able to threaten to throw Israel under the bus, if not actually do so.
The only snag is that we’ve rather indulgently let Israel have its own way for so long that its now an openly racist, nuclear armed state with a Messianic complex — they’re God’s Chosen People and so they can do anything (and likely will if not watched — as a society they seem to have completely lost their moral compass). We have to exert extreme pressure on them not just to prevent them from blowing up the world — or at least attempting to — but for their own sake.There’s a reason why Israel’s history is peppered with instances of the state being destroyed and the people scattered and I’d guess that if their current behavior is typical its quite obviously been done just so the neighbors can get some peace and quiet. (On the negative side we’ve got US lawmakers openly espousing this conflict as Armageddon or the Second Coming or something — they obviously believe in this and obviously believe they’re on the right side — it would be so wonderful if it was the End Times and they found out that they actually were on the side of Evil!)
I believe that there has been substantial Rothschild investment into major civic buildings located Tel Aviv in the past. Can anyone provide information as to how they have fared against the reported Iranian blitz?
I see this as some sort of litmus test and would be grateful for any information. They’ve been leveled to the ground / they’re the only buildings unmarked in a neighborhood? Or maybe nothing so red flag like. Please tell 🙂
Beirut currently seems higher on the list of priorities for future real estate redevelopment. Tel Aviv relatively unscathed afaik. The Iron Dome working well.
There is apparently evidence that most of the buildings leveled in Tel Aviv during the 12 Day war last year were either scheduled for demolition or were the subject of lengthy legal battles to evict tenants so the sites could be redeveloped. If true that is a very strange coincidence. Were the Iranians agreeing targets with Bibi and co?
Thanks for that response HI. Good to see my query followed up by someone that actually gets the point. What you describe sounds more like a real estate operation than a coincidence to me. And yes, I believe “frenemies” agreeing targets has been a thing in the past and if that’s been happening once again it’s a significant flapping flag.
For one, it lends credence to Kit Knightly’s take on events, which I’ve been somewhat skeptical of (after all Iran was the last of 7?). Even if Rothschild Boulevard, the Supreme Court building etc are not significant military targets, striking them would be a very powerful symbolic blow.
Any one else able to contribute details about the state of Tel Aviv and its prestigious building? I don’t take George Galloway without a pinch of salt, but he has claimed Tel Aviv resembles Gaza.
Not Iran, however – it will surely affect some Americans.
” Trump orders the dismantling of the US Forest Service.
All regional offices are being shut down and the research program destroyed”
I worked for the USFS, at a regional office (Portland, OR) for 25 years. While I don’t oppose moving HQ operations out of D.C., I’ve hated the D.C. bureaucracy for decades, this is disgusting considering what they want to do (and won’t do) with DOD (Department of War). But as with most everything else, this is not Trump, he doesn’t have a clue about this.

Republic — I agree with you. Israel and specifically Satanyahu is in control of Trump and Washington. Trump has appointed almost all hard core Zionists or Christian Zionists to his administration they believe that this war will bring about Armageddon and the return of the Christian messiah to the earth. The Israeli Zionists believe it will bring their messiah to the earth.
On top of that insane messianic cults, Billionaire Zionist donors control Trump and the republican party. They will not let this war go. It has been their goal for decades.
But you are right; this way will end Israel’s vicious domination of all of the middle east. Israel has already lost this war and is not just killing everyone it can for the sake of killing. Satanyahu’s vision is to make all of Lebanon, Syria, and Iran look just like Gaza. In that, he will make Israel look like Gaza.
It’s not about Israel controling the US, it’s about the supranational elites controling ALL the so-called nation states and writing scripts for them to perform for our benefit, so we’ll be distracted with wars and crises and elections and just won’t notice our freedoms being slowly eroded.
It’s both.
Of course. Trump is being blackmailed by by the people who have automatic citizenship in Israel using Epstein material to fight a completely ruinous War For The People Who Have Automatic Citizenship in Israel.
There were two operations from the outset.’Operation Roaring Lion’ and ‘Operation Epic Fury’. Two peoples. Two agendas
The Strait of Hormuz is ‘fully’ open. At least for 15 ships a day (no more)
Weaponised language is an attack on communication.
Discerning the truth – as is relevant and resonant to the seeking of a grounded reference or balance point – cannot simply run on language—name or phrase and association or suggestions – used as a manipulative deceit, cover story or self-justifying masking narrative.
Understanding this calls for the relinquishment of such ab-use of language and of the mind.
Not all errors are intentional lies. Usage abbreviates to shortcuts. The shortcuts pertain to an original but become substituted for the original and assigned meanings that are out of kilter with the original. This is to say that the mind can and does become identified in and defined by its own constructs as emotionally invested stake in a conflict of illusions, given priority or power over a self-honesty, not least by reaction-habits that set the mind in false beliefs, conflicts and solutions. This is to say that the mind becomes possessed by its own believed possessions or abilities and cannot of itself release them.
The projection and perception of an evil power onto a world of fear, threat and struggle for power can not be altogether separated from self-hatred. Terror, shame and guilt conflicts are intolerable. The mind can temporarily dissociate from an experience of overwhelm by which it is shaped to block, evade or project out to diversionary displacement. Masking and distancing from the fear of reliving terror and thus locking down and lockstepping in countermeasures.
What I describe is automatic recoil from pain and not a result of ‘thinking about’. The capacity to ‘think about’ develops as a masked distance from the ‘object’ of attention.
The development of defences or ‘solutions’ to conflict is a progressive tooling of an environment, both within -as thought- and without as the hand or action of a technologism that would change the ‘world’ to conform to the demands of the ‘inner-conflicted’ masking defence system.
The setting up of divisions is not simply a means to set rule over, but to set rules that polarised factions both follow – such as the restructuring from peace to war, and thus funding and function as the war dictates.
Globalism or unchecked private systemic control is a masked agenda even when stating its cause openly – for its ‘operating system’ is shaping the basis of our thought, definitions, values and enforced standards – that output as permission to live, move and express being. Pay to play.
Regardless the technologism in progress, the pattern is already active as a socially masked order of penalty and sacrifice relative to permitted credits or limited freedoms.
The pattern is in and of its starting place as a reiteration of the trauma by which a sense of self-differentiation from love offered a basis for limiting and limited hate or denial.
Covid and its mythic backstory didn’t have to be real to serve as a basis for resetting the mask of fear, hate and denial, but they had to be perceived real enough to trigger defences that then effectively encapsulate the trauma in the ‘solutions’ that its stakeholders invest in as the path of masking self-interest.
The masking defence is not made weaker by attacking it or showing it to be evil, mad or heretical but by choosing not to use it, accept its offer or engage in its terms.
Consider the consolidation of funding symbolically, how much is invested in ‘defence’ – which needs take in defences against feared or projected risk – and therefore the business of defining, modelling and projecting risk as a means to predict, control or pre-emptively shape according to modelling math framed in arbitrary parameters by insider-dealing of perceived self-interest.
AI-Bio-tech systems is an extension of Financialisation of life. The same complex instruments of repackaging risk to sacrifice by means of ratcheting and consolidating control over life, apply to ‘thescience’ – not just the mass media projection of memes, but the underlying theoretical modelling aligned to insider elitism.
Those who seek to understand the mind as a basis to manipulate it develop modes of thought that are of an ingenuity running loveless – regardless any ‘good intentions’ or moral justifications. The result is demonic – for it mimics the living but cannot see or know the living – excepting only to absorb and reflect the forms its ‘sees’ as a deeper development of manipulative control.
The lie and the father of the lie is of the wish truth be different (than it is) given intensity by which to override or over-mask a living honesty by a Call to War. And thus to a self set and shaped by war as the function of life. We all have a part in this. It is easy to observe – except when its Call demands and gains your total attention.
The larger framework of our world script does not negate or define the gift you choose to share in. The struggles of our human life may be set in partial or false vision but the love that we give and receive is real. I use the word ‘love’ because it holds the quality of unconflicted and unconditional embrace. Polarised factions ’embrace’ hate in the name of lost, denied, rejected or betrayed love. But not in the nature of love.
Real love:
“For God so loved the [real, physical, actual, not-entirely-abstract, created] world that He gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

War or no war, the Empire is going down the shit chute:
https://scheerpost.com/2026/04/09/a-new-homelessness-strategy-is-sweeping-california/
What we can conclude is that we cannot conclude anything about Iran. And in doing so, we can probably conclude that WE are the victims, being caught on the right while looking to the left?
So someone says to Trump: Trump, go make some real noise, then we can implement our measures for the camps in that Europe. That way, the technocrats (devils) can do their work in the shadows and build the hardware from which people can never escape again. They (Rome) want revenge. Still.
As the empire goes down it shows itself to be in the grips of delusional insanity. Even the massed ranks of the pro-Trump, pro-Israel crowd are fazed by this. Meanwhile the dollar is already being dumped like never before and the military power to maintain its reign is no ;longer there: this is a massive military defeat. The good news is that nukes have not been used and if that continues to be the case we emerge with all to fight for- starting will the bringing of the Epstein circle

That’s Saturdays’s entertainment. Don’t skip ahead
Off-topic. Why isn’t your comment censored?
How real is this conflict, There have been video;s of tens of thousands (or hundreds thousands depending on reporting) of Iran population in the street supposedly in support of there leaders including children while bombs are going off in the distance. We are told during the blitz in the UK radar would detect the incoming bombers air raid sirens would warn people. People would take shelter some in tube stations or shelters they had prepared in the garden.Then sirens would give the all clear when the bombers had passed. Why would you risk the lives of your family including your children by gathering in huge groups in the street to support your leaders. Something does not add up it is called the theatre of war for a reason
Weren’t they also in human chains around energy plants? Anyway, zero political risk in marching in favour of the Khameni dynasty/the IRGC. I’m sure they still do still take cover when the sirens sound though..
Despite the new supreme leader still being in a coma, by all accounts
They are not marching for the supreme leader. They are marching for the sovereign state of Iran to crush Israel.
The people in the street are not “supporting their leaders.” They are supporting the war. They are supporting the Iranian missiles raining down on Tel Aviv and Haifa and destroying Israel’s ability to defend itself. They are defending a beautiful dream. They don’t want no stinking cease-fires.
There’s only one conclusion that makes sense – this is a Wag the Dog war made up of 90% media stories and 10% physical action.
That’s why there’s only one piece of footage for every ten news stories of “devastating” bombing. And why so much of that footage is the same type of minimal damage to what looks like old apartment buildings.
Same as in Ukraine. 2million young Ukrainian men are supposed to have died in a war no one can film happening. You only get mortality numbers like that in prolonged pitched battles like in Ypres or the Somme. Battles like that leave scars on the landscape you can still see 80 or more years later. They destroy whole towns and villages. They are very easy to locate.
110 years ago they had photographers and film cameras at the Somme that captured the devastation. We know exactly where it was happening. We know the battle sites named after the towns that were destroyed.
Why isn’t the same true now in Ukraine? 2 million soldiers dead – that’s an entire generation gone from a country with Ukraine’s population. An entire generation of sons, fathers, brothers.
Why don’t we know any but a few names? Why is there no record of where these battles happened? Why is there no video of these massive engagements and all the churned up wrecked countryside ffs?
There’s more film of WW1 than there is of the 2022-2026 Ukraine “war”.
2 million combatants allegedly dead on ONE side and all we have as a record is the same videos of damaged apartment buildings and those alleged cemeteries full of dead young men whose families never speak up, never complain about the insane senseless loss of life.
The only explanation that works for me after years of looking into it is that the “war” is only about 10% the size it’s claimed to be and the rest is filled in with news stories and rumours.
I think the Ukraine war was kicked off as a distraction when the covid psyop was getting questioned too much, and both sides agreed to limit engagements and damage and fill in the gaps with big stories.
I think something similar is going on in Iran, but I haven’t studied that one as much. The loony claims and contradictions make it look that way, and the way it fits right in to Agenda 2030.
Covid was fake. Artemis is fake. Post-covid wars are 90% fake. Imho.
Indeed. Everything’s fake. No physical event ever actually happens. We all should simply go back to sleep. Let big boys and girls deal with the real world.
“And the big brown bear came lolloping over the hills…”

The inevitable: another attempt to get a version of UBI-rationing off the ground:
https://dumptheguardian.com/business/2026/apr/09/give-all-uk-households-a-set-amount-of-subsidised-energy-says-thinktank
Once they get their foot in the door of deciding how much energy people can use and at what price, it’s never going away.
The narrative circulating around (open source) B1 bombers had been loaded with tactical nukes. (now if nukes are real or not I will not dwell on it ) China via Pakistan. Iran is being carpet bombed similar to what was done to North Korea in the 50/s. Iran control the straits Ipso facto. This does not mean Iran is winning. Iran only has to survive this bellicose moment. Us does not need the oil. Ipso facto. Europe and asia does. Globalization has forced supply chain economics to the whole world Ipso Facto. Us special forces got close to the nuclear plants in Iran Ipso facto. USD is stronger Ipso facto.Us trade deficit is above 100 percent IPso facto . I remind every one that this is all open source information. Macron and Starmer and Merz all goldman sachs guys in the past and French Rothschild, Starmer known anglo zionist ( attacked Red Roney ex Mayor of city of London when he had the audacity to show German Zionist and National socialist Nazi germany had an agreement to transfer people of Jewish faith to Palestine in the thirties.Ipso facto. Remember everything is narrative control. IDF airforce bombed all the bridges and railways out of Tehran Ipso facto. Just within minutes of the Pakistan Chinese brokered cease fire. Lebanon in the last 24 hours has had the largest bomb ordinance dropped in southern Lebanon and 299 civilians murdered in southern Beirut. Ipso facto. WTI and Brent went from 96 to 99 dollars in the last 24 hours.
POST SCRIPTUM Iran is in the World Cup Football finals, It is un the USA Mexico and Canada. Money advertisement. The war will end before the world Cup. It is my humble opinion. Iran and Russia are making circa 300 million dollars in USD per day since the Israel Us Iran war. Follow the money The old Us Wasp catholic wealth are fighting it out with London and Rome.
Docius In Fondo : Follow the value of Doctor copper and the USD both have been indicators of economic growth. Food security will be the nugget that will be the kabals down fall.
If journalism were actually a thing in this alternative media arena, then they would have done a basic – I mean, basic-search, maybe read a book before printing whatever comes into the limited hangout mind.
WAR UPDATE : Day 42 is the same concept they used with the Vietnam War, which turned into a cliché ” forever war ,” which was the same terminology they used for Afghanistan and Iraq. Even the Brexit leave EU vote had the day counter, which is based on the Doomsday Clock . Then, with each 2-week or 1/2/3-month extension, they would build up some imaginary meeting or agreement or ”ceasefire”.
Maybe subscribe to some old journals and type in ” war ,” then learn the type of lingo they used back then. Maybe you will be able to see they haven’t changed their modus operandi.
Unfortunately , this new breed of limited research in alt media can’t go beyond what the newspaper of the day tells them to say , and that is the scope of their research.
Day 42: and you’ve yet to call it fake.
Confusion is a very strong tactic. Confusion makes weak.
In simple terms: The imperial budget for war (not defence) is ~$1.2 trillion, and will soon rise to $1.5 trillion. This excludes further wars launched, nukes, satellites, etc. To spend that, it needs to instigate war.
Actually quite a bit will have to be spent on replenishing all the weaponry used in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran. US has spent tens of billions emptying out its missile inventory. Much of its anti-missile technology has been bombed to a pulp.
US has at least 4 “interceptor” types. I have not come across any believable evaluation of their performance, except one that deemed the Patriot abysmal over 25 years or more. In the aggression, the concept has been exposed as a joke. US refused to what its peers have been trying out: a swarm of cheap drones followed by missiles. The multi-warhead missiles may also carry decoys, IIRC. Plus US and Israel fire at least 2 interceptors each time. Plus all the very expensive radar/satellite-link installations in the area have been blown up.
The warning signs were flashing from the time of the Afghanistan aggression, but were ignored as they were not dollar signs.
SURPRISINGLY GULF SIRENS LAST NIGHT & TODAY WERE IRANIAN ATTACKS
The sirens that sounded across the Gulf at about the time of expiration of the ultimatum I dismissed as precautionary but no longer necessary due to the ceasefire. Could’ve just been elements of IRGC who didn’t get the news, right? It also continued all day today, Wednesday.
Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE: desalination, oil infrastructure, etc. Maybe it was to negotiate from a position of strength
arabtimesonline.com
Kuwait:”No interruption in services, all function as normal since the outbreak of the war“.
(Although some utilities were damaged) It doesnt look a lot of war to me.
Dunno, Erik. Maybe arabtimesonline.com isn’t reliable??
Could be. But if the truth was completely opposite that many were smashed and not functional, it would look quite strange to issue a newspaper with these remarks.. It says their Civil emergency and defence system took over and do function..
In Donbass I still read reclamations over their water supply do not function.
So my conclusion was this war “just another day in office”.
I guess you’ve heard
–A minimum of 650 people killed in Beirut, Lebanon. People were out shopping & they were slaughtered by 100 missiles. (I find it hard to believe the death toll was that high.)
Israelis claim it was military targets.
–Iran responded, striking Israel
–Prof Marandi @ U of Teheran gives an interview most days. Today he says it’s not clear what’s happening but he hears anti-aircraft fire.
–VP JD Vance was sposed to be leader of the negotiating team, altho the villains Kushner
& Witkoff were to be part of it– altho these two lied about the Iranian position when the US /Israel attacked during the negotiations. Those two had told the Iranians, or the intermediaries or whoever that the negotiations wd continue on Monday, but we attacked them instead. NOW, reportedly Trump has said that it “wouldn’t be safe” for Vance to go to Islamabad or negotiations, so his son-in-law Kushner & Witkoff are still going but not Vance!? Bizarre. Don’t know if negotiations are still scheduled anyway.
–I still find it peculiar that the US has had an increasing shortage of missiles since 2022; why/
The last point isn’t as peculiar as decommissioning their minesweepers….
Or the peculiarity of Dissing all our NATO allies., while making verbal claims to Canada, Greenland & Cuba. Ala Greater North America, I guess.
If Witkoff or Kushner came to the UK, hundreds of thousands would cheer if they were murdered in cold blood.
So why they would be safe in the Middle East is anyone’s guess.
Genocidal murderers are unlikely to be safe anywhere outside the USA. And even there, millions would pay to have them bumped off.
Well said, Sir. I guess– if there ARE negotiations– Trumps isn’t sure JD Vance will lie about them, so he wants Vance off the team. ??
Evidently, what can be concluded, according to the tenor of this blog, is that it’s all part of the grand illusion to enact global technocratic totalitarian dystopia on those humans left after the eugenic agenda perpetrated through Big Pharma and the Military Industrial Complex. So, from that POV, it really doesn’t matter if there is or isn’t a ceasefire. It doesn’t matter what Pakistan or China did or didn’t do. Lebanon is just part of the unfortunate consequences of the globalist plan. The Strait of Hormuz is just an excuse to fuck with people and the markets to make the rich even richer further enabling their globalist delusions. And there are no sides because they’re all in it together. The only sides are Us against Them.
And sarcasm aside, that’s the way it is anyway. Us vs them, whatever way you want to slice it. We know who “they” are. We’re still trying to figure out who “we” are. like the old song by the great English band The Who, “Oh, who the fuck are you?” We need to figure that out.
But according to OG, it is known who they are, since they are ” all in it together “, so why continue to publish articles when they already know the answer.
Of course the absence of concrete evidence and ignoring the long long history of the West exploiting Iran, it is all done and dusted.
Well, they’re using the Covid-19 scam and the roll out of technocracy to assert that means they’re all in it together and the war in Iran is actually fake, i.e., not really about that history you’re referring to, or even the zionist quest for Greater Israel and control of the planet as the “Chosen People”, and is being cooperatively waged by ALL to enact that global technocratic agenda. That’s as near as I can tell, and I can only say I disagree. I think it gives other humans, i.e., the supposed controllers, more credit than they deserve. I really don’t know where or what that gets us.
doesnt work in reality.
cancel culture like banning the wireless festival shows the power israeli lobbists.
Well, when you have a country whose leadership is blackmailed by Israel with Epstein material, then your country is in it together with Israel whether it wants to be or not.
Who controls the strait of Hormuz? Iran.
Who won? Iran.
I like to keep it simple cause I’m stupid LOL.
K.I.S,S, Usually the best way.
Just hopium for the masses, they won’t be stopping this charade any time soon as they are getting everything they want from it
It makes no sense … If paying the fees makes Iran let you go through, why would you need the US Navy to escort?
Why not Iran? Crazy making.
… this kind of ceasefire ?

After reading Big Serge’s post it’s easy to conclude that Trump The Resolute
is The Distraction… And his prime function is to sow confusion…
I agree. But I suspect that Trump may soon be dumped to make way for Mr Vance. Vance was keeping his distance from this latest drama, but suddenly, he is taking a front and very public position. Ask yourself why.
Same agenda, of course, just with a different actor to appease the masses. Before or after the November mid term elections?
Kamela is STILL waiting in the shadows, and some says that Pam Bondi got so pessed so she will try the President job in the midways https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0G0qA6zGjOQ .
That in war there is thick fog.
What shall we conclude from the above? Business as usual. Actually this “deal” is not worth a comment.
So many muddled messages from the media and government spin doctors, who the hell really knows what is going on.
“Keeping them on edge and fearful works well boss”
“Yeah, don’t slow down yet. There’s more money to be made”
Remember President Biden’s Autopen ? President Trump The Resolute
has an X Auto-message poster. Trump often contradicts what is posted
on X in his name… “Sad, Very sad”…
I found this on the internet:
“Is there some goodness here, in that finally the Iranian people will realize that their real enemies are Iranian liberals, and that Iran is fully in charge and will win unless it allows the liberal traitors sell it out to the usual suspects?”
Hush hush, dont hurt the feelings of the liberal multi-billionaires. They see themselves as do-gooders.
Carolyn Leavitt, White House spokesperson half an hour ago: Public reports that strait is closed are false. It is open; there’s an uptick in ships passing thru. [This is a lie; only 2 ships today.] She repeats Lebanon not part of the ceasefire agreement. [Pakistani PMs formal announcement in my post below disagrees.]
Israel just killed another Aljazeera journalist in a prominently painted car indicating he was a journalist.
Hindustan Times is reporting the attack in Lebanon to be the worst in 40 years.

CEASEFIRE VIOLATIONS
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi raised “ceasefire violations” by Israel with Pakistani mediators on Wednesday, an Iranian ministry statement said, as reports citing senior officials warned that Tehran could pull out of the truce over attacks on Lebanon.
Araghchi “discussed the Zionist regime’s violations of the ceasefire in Iran and Lebanon”, referring to Israel, in a call with the powerful Pakistani military leader Field Marshal Asim Munir.
Erdogan of Turkey said in a phone call with US President Donald Trump that no opportunity should be given for the ceasefire process with Iran to be sabotaged.
—newarab.com
Tell that to Israhell.
Trump with his Adelson and Kushner gang will never put up with any demands to Israhell.
It’s a success for US and Israel. Ceasefire is not in Iran’s interest. But a faction of traitorous liberals in the Iranian command structure pushed for it. They should be beheaded. The IRGC was winning. They should keep bombing Israel and American bases until they are rubble.
Depends who you believe. According to Iran they have humiliated Trump and the US, got them to lift all sanctions and agree to a $2million toll for every ship passing through the strait, paid in bitcoin or yuan.
If that’s true it doesn’t sound like much of a success for the US or Israel.
So you also count success from whom get out of it with a money bag.
Ohh boy ohh boy.
Unless they destroy Israel, they have not won.
At least 13 bases are reported to be abandoned.
A successful dis-information campaign is one which results in people
not knowing what to believe…
And President Trump The Resolute is a master at sowing confusion…
I still find it hard to believe they went ahead with the Iran move without even the most perfunctory gesture at some babies-pulled-out-of-incubators horror show. The CGI orgy shoring up this general human rights violation meme is the most blasé gesture of contempt imaginable. You get the feeling they can say what they want now.
But then again, if the whole thing is one big “transverse national” fraud (Eastasia or Eurasia?) then minimal token gesture waffle is all that’s needed.
Any update on the Starship Enterprise voyage? Have they veered off course setting up a switch from Star Trek to Lost in Space yet? How about Moonbase Alpha?
My friendly AI reporter tells me:
Jolly good. So they haven’t met Zurg yet.
Or… wait a minute, it’s coming to me! Wasn’t there one of those creepy old Quatermass epics where somebody came back from a long space journey an brought back … something?
Get ready for Palmer Eldritch!
And if there is an extraterrestrial virus …well!
‘… trouble with the waste management system’ ? The ship has a bellyache ?
Is constipated ? The Universe refuses a gift of hoomin shit ?
So we’re already doing a dump in Space ? Soon the place will be a hooman
garbage dump…
This whole theater is a load of crap. Where are the real photos (not images) of Earth taken from ‘space’? All we see are AI/CGI images of the fake blue marble, globe earth.
Perhaps the globos are worried that flat earth evidence is becoming too convincing. Also, of course, to cover the humiliation of losing yet another war the US needs to be seen ‘winning’ something.
I am also wondering about the woman’s unruly hair in the fake capsule. The men, although they have shorter hair, remains firmly fixed to their heads. You’d think the lack of gravity would have some effect on the men as well as the woman…….unless, of course, it is theater and the wardrobe mistress missed that detail?
The Moon has a corona. Perhaps the actor-naughts will bring that back?
Maybe they’ll bring back mooney-pox?
Ha ha – good one George.
Without the constant pull of gravity hoomin bones brittlise and the body collapses into a blob. The hoomins who return from Moonbase before they’re fully blobbed are lucky as they can be pushed everywhere in wheelchairs. The others develop extreme fears of drains…
They’re called astro-nots.
