Video: ‘America Not Untouchable’: Big Iran Warning From ‘MAGA Queen’ Leaking Trump’s Nuclear Plan

Video: ‘America Not Untouchable’: Big Iran Warning From ‘MAGA Queen’ Leaking Trump’s Nuclear Plan

Former U.S. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has made a stunning claim, alleging that U.S. officials are discussing the possible use of nuclear weapons against Iran during high-level strategy meetings.

In a lengthy post on X, Greene warned that lowering the nuclear threshold could have catastrophic consequences for the Middle East and the world.

Greene invoked the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, arguing that humanity vowed "never again" after the devastation of 1945.

She also questioned the rationale behind the U.S. military campaign against Iran, challenged President Donald Trump's claims about the conflict, and urged Americans to oppose any move toward nuclear escalation.

The U.S. government has not publicly confirmed Greene's claims regarding internal discussions on the use of nuclear weapons.

Colluding with Violence: Aiding Israeli Settlers in the West Bank. “The Momentum of Annexation”

Colluding with Violence: Aiding Israeli Settlers in the West Bank. “The Momentum of Annexation”

The latest incidents of Israeli settler violence in the villages of Qusra and Kour, located in the northern occupied West Bank, have again caught international attention, reaching the halls of the United Nations with a gravity that, sadly, is unlikely to have much effect. Towards the end of July, the settlers had set their sights on local mosques, which they set on fire. From August 9, three families in Qusra – making up 15 people in all – were confined to their homes in terror, running out of food and necessities. (Settlers had deprived them of access to water and power.) When Palestinian Red Crescent ambulances attempted to deliver food and water to these homes, they were attacked.

Australia to Conduct Largest Wild-Bird Vaccination Experiment Ever Attempted. $30 Million from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation

Australia to Conduct Largest Wild-Bird Vaccination Experiment Ever Attempted.  $30 Million from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation

Australia is preparing to round up 5,000 wild little penguins, inject each of them twice with an avian-influenza vaccine, implant microchips, and release them back into the wild in what amounts to the largest wild-bird vaccination experiment ever attempted. In total, it will involve roughly 10,000 injections and 5,000 implanted microchips across a free-ranging wild population.

The vaccine being supplied for Australia's protected bird program is a Zoetis H5N2 killed-virus vaccine developed for poultry, while the virus now circulating in Australian wildlife is H5N1. The product was developed for chickens, not wild penguins, and Australia has acknowledged that experience using these vaccines in non-poultry species is limited. Yet authorities are now scaling this intervention up to thousands of free-ranging animals.

The plan requires capturing the penguins, restraining them, injecting and microchipping them, releasing them, then finding and capturing them again several weeks later for a second dose. This is an unprecedented pharmaceutical intervention in a wild ecosystem.

 

Anduril: “Hyperscaling” the Worst of America’s Military-Industrial-Complex. War Propaganda and War Profiteering

Anduril: “Hyperscaling” the Worst of America’s Military-Industrial-Complex. War Propaganda and War Profiteering

While Luckey and Anduril have vowed to "hyperscale" production on par with or exceeding Russian and Chinese military industrial production with concepts like "software-defined production"— a process Chinese factories have already incorporated within China's vastly greater industrial base for years — the only thing actually being "hyperscaled" is war propaganda and its resulting war profiteering.

Doing "Better" Than Legacy US Corporations, Falling Short of Russia and China

While it is true Anduril is developing weapons that may be a fraction of the cost of other weapons manufactured by legacy US arms producers, they fall short of the quality, quantity, and cost savings of their Russian counterparts — saying nothing of how far they fall short of China's military industrial capabilities.

And while it can be said an Anduril cruise missile is cheaper than those produced by Raytheon, they fall far short of the range and destruction Raytheon missiles can achieve.

Many of Anduril's broken promises

Operation Barbarossa: Did Stalin Anticipate Hitler’s Attack?

Operation Barbarossa: Did Stalin Anticipate Hitler’s Attack?

[Author's Note: The article below, first published by GR in June 2021, outlines, for instance, brief criticism of Italian leader Benito Mussolini by Otto Skorzeny, an SS commando who among other operations carried out in his career had led the mission during September 1943 to liberate the temporarily ousted Mussolini from captivity in a mountain top prison more than 2,000 meters up, in central Italy, and less than 70 miles from Rome.

Skorzeny wrote in his wartime recollections (My Commando Operations) that the Duce had made the grievous mistake of bringing resource-poor Italy with its shaky economy into the war from 1940; while Skorzeny noted the Italian soldiers from the outset were "poorly equipped, inadequately fed, and badly led" as they "went from one catastrophe to the next" across Europe and Africa.

Skorzeny acknowledged also that, "Hitler made serious mistakes during the war" and "grave errors in his appraisal of the war situation – but primarily because he was badly informed." Skorzeny pointed

Federal Judge Dismisses Trump’s Bogus Anti-Semitism Lawsuit Against Harvard University

Federal Judge Dismisses Trump’s Bogus Anti-Semitism Lawsuit Against Harvard University

President Trump, ever Israel's loyal puppet, instructed the US Department of Justice (sic) to bring a lawsuit against Harvard for anti-semitism. The Trump regime maintains that Harvard engaged in anti-semitism when some students protested against the Israeli genocide of Palestine. 

Somehow free speech, guaranteed by the First Amendment, has become illegal if it results in criticism of Israel. The Trump regime contends, believe it or not, that it constitutes a violation of Jews' civil rights for Harvard students to oppose genocide. Go figure.

Moreover, how is Harvard empowered to censor the free speech of its students? Harvard students are not locked away in dungeons with rags stuffed in their mouths. If Harvard punishes students for exercising First Amendment rights, Harvard will get a bunch of lawsuits for violating the civil rights of the students. Trump's case and the students' case cannot both be true.

Trump's idea that Jews alone are entitled to protection from criticism shows what a complete puppet

Drug Cartels, Cocaine, Forged Documents: The Kushner-Trump Sazan Albania Island Deal Frozen

Drug Cartels, Cocaine, Forged Documents: The Kushner-Trump Sazan Albania Island Deal Frozen

The Jared Kushner-Ivanka Trump Albania island purchase has taken a sinister turn as the deed transferring the property from Artur Shehu to the Kushner pair is revealed to be a forgery.

The case files accuse Shehu and associates of trafficking South American cocaine into European ports, and laundering the funds by using them to establish a ‌real estate empire, including with falsified land-ownership documents. Shehu is a resident of Miami.

Albania organized crime syndicates have been well-known with the Cela Copja Clan regarded as the most powerful in Albania.

Led by Frank Copja and Elvis Cela, the group allegedly has smuggled tens of tonnes of cocaine into Europe, laundering billions in cash through "luxury real estate and five-star resorts." The same styled resort Kushner and Ivanka sought to build on the remote island, Sazan. There are no coincidences.

The cocaine is trafficked from Colombia into European ports and laundered

Women with Kidney Disease Are Undertreated and Left Behind by Decades of Male-Dominated Research

Women with Kidney Disease Are Undertreated and Left Behind by Decades of Male-Dominated Research

Chronic kidney disease affects 844 million people worldwide, yet women are less likely than men to be tested, diagnosed, referred to specialists, or receive treatments that have been adequately studied in female patients

Up to 30% to 50% of chronic kidney disease cases go undiagnosed in high-income countries, and women are up to twice as likely as white men to remain undiagnosed even when kidney damage is present

Women account for about 55% of the global chronic kidney disease population but represented only 45.4% of participants in kidney disease clinical trials, creating major gaps in knowledge about how treatments affect women

Social and economic factors, including caregiving responsibilities, financial barriers, and delayed access to specialist care, contribute to poorer kidney disease outcomes for many women as the condition progresses

Protecting kidney health includes addressing contributing factors, such as high blood pressure, poor mineral balance, vitamin D deficiency, physical inactivity, and ultraprocessed

US Senate Sanctions Russia. Towards an Aggressive RussiaGate 2.0?

US Senate Sanctions Russia. Towards an Aggressive RussiaGate 2.0?

Recently Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu directly warned Moscow against delivering S-400 systems to Turkey as Russian President Vladimir Putin fired back:

"Russia does not bow to threats, and no one dictates who we cooperate with."

Russia remains the largest country in the world covering 11% of the world's landmass with rich deposits in natural gas, crude oil and coal fueling a competitiveness because of its massive size that certain European countries, insecure about their own place in the world, feel vulnerable to Russia's leadership status on the planet. 

Despite the fact that it was Russia who broke the German military to end WW II, there is a more than subtle enmity toward Russia on the part of many of those same western nations rescued by Russia including the EU and the American Congress.  

With antiquated leadership class, some of whom raise an irrational fear of an imminent

People Killed Defending Nature in Lebanon

People Killed Defending Nature in Lebanon

"Hey! We found the eggs!" Cheers erupted on the public beach of Jbeil, north of Beirut, on one of the last mornings of June. Amid abandoned jet skis and plastic beach loungers, a small group of volunteers knelt in the white sand. 

Less than an hour after starting their search, they uncovered a clutch of sea turtle eggs.

The discovery was remarkable. During the night, a female loggerhead turtle had crawled ashore to lay her eggs. By daybreak, the same stretch of sand was already bustling with swimmers, surfers, and holiday-makers.

Nesting

"When I arrived that morning, I saw a large hole in the sand and first thought someone had fallen", recalls lifeguard Michel Koury, who spotted the nest. "Then I checked the security camera footage and saw the turtle."

The 18 years old lifeguard immediately contacted surfers who knew Lebanese reptile conservationist Rami Khashab, one of the country's best-known wildlife

Brazil’s Election: Lula, Bolsonaro, and the Battle for the Future

Brazil’s Election: Lula, Bolsonaro, and the Battle for the Future

This week marks the beginning of Brazil's presidential campaign, with the two front-runners—current President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro—officially launching their campaigns. After visiting Brazil and talking with politicians, activists, journalists, and ordinary citizens, I came away with the conviction that this is one of the most consequential presidential elections in Brazil's recent history. The outcome on October 4 will shape not only Brazil's future but also the political direction of Latin America.

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, now 80 years old, is seeking a fourth presidential term. Brazil's Constitution allows presidents to serve only two consecutive terms, but they may run again after sitting out at least one term. That is how Lula returned to office in 2023 after governing from 2003 to 2010. 

Following the four-year presidency of the far-right Jair Bolsonaro, Lula's supporters say he has rebuilt many of the institutions and policies weakened under Bolsonaro. His government has reduced hunger, expanded social programs, strengthened

How the US Plays the Nuclear Wild Card to Extract Maximum Concessions

How the US Plays the Nuclear Wild Card to Extract Maximum Concessions

The contemporary global strategic landscape is increasingly defined by a deliberate perception cultivated by the United States, one that casts it as a state fundamentally unmoored from the established tenets of Mutually Assured Destruction, and by extension, as a power for whom traditional nuclear fears are anachronistic constraints rather than guiding principles.

This is not merely a failure of strategic communication or a passive evolution of policy, but rather an active, albeit often unspoken, strategic posture that serves to systematically reshape the diplomatic and security calculations of other major international actors, engineering a situation where those other powers are left as the sole custodians of nuclear rationality while the United States sheds all equivalent responsibility for itself.
