Not from the Onion : Today, at recommendation from Israel, the U.S. Department of the Treasury designated Lebanon-based Green Without Borders NGO and its leader on the sanctions list.

The NGO takes care of natural reserves in south Lebanon, in addition to planting trees and fighting deforestation.

Planting trees in south of Lebanon is against Israel's right to defend itself.

Twitter is once again a shit storm of bots, fake accounts and useful idiots posting and RT laughable stories and images.

The idiots and all those liking and Rating these posts think everyone else is blind and completely stupid, not knowing that Russian S-400 air defense systems are famous for their mobility and ability to move from their location in a pretty short time before reloading and targeting the incoming missiles and planes.

Sadly lot of people seems to be repeating the same BS on other social networks as well.

Religious stupidity has no limit!

Arbain (40th in Arabic) is one of the major events in Sia Islam.

Arbaeen (Arabic: الأربعين, romanized: al-Arba‘īn, lit. 'fortieth'), Chehellom (Persian: چهلم, "the fortieth day") is a Shia religious observance that occurs forty days after the Day of Ashura. It commemorates the martyrdom of Al-Husayn ibn Ali, the grandson of Muhammad, who was martyred on the 10th day of the month of Muharram. Imam Hussain ibn Ali and 71 of his companions were martyred by Ubayd Allah ibn Ziyad's army under the governance of Yazid I in the Battle of Karbala in 61 AH (680 CE).

The lunacy of religious fanatics and even ordinary Shia muslims become a show of madness, self mutilation and self harm in "respect" to the 4th imam of Shia and the son of prophet Muhammad who died (supposedly) with 72 of his supporters in the city of Karbala by the forces of Sunni leadership of Islamic Caliphate who saw themselves as legitimate leaders of the Muslim world and The Shia as the Persian influenced infidels who wanted to put royalty I to Islam in the name of blood based leadership of Shia Imamas.

Ever since I was a kid. I had a love, hate relationship with these events, love because it was an excellent moment to run around and get free food, candy, rose water juice and lemonade while watching the adults hit themselves bloody and cry like toddlers for a man who died over 1300 years ago. A man who probably hated Iran and Iranians as much as the rest of those barbarian Arab invaders and wouldn't have hesitated to slaughter Iranians ISIS style in the name of spreading their religion of peace.

This year, over 600k Iranians have signed up to visit Karbala, with over 100k bellow the age of 18. Each of them going to spend a significant amount of money for travel and food among other things while millions in Iran living bellow the line of poverty, young boys and girls live on the streets, being physically and sexually abused by older men (many of them true believers) and drug addiction is at astronomical level in the country.

On top of everything, Iran is seeing a new form of desperation, dumping the older family members, the sick and mentally ill in the parks, under bridges and in some cases even murder. Something that was unheard of (or extremely rare) in the days before the revolution that promised us to create a classless and just Islamic government where fuel, electricity and rent would be free and each citizen would receive a portion of the sale of oil and natural gas.

Instead over 8 million Iranians are in exile, some 30 millions can't afford 3xneala a day and 1000a commit suicide every month where they no longer can live under such conditions and even worse, the number of murder suicide has increased to a level that the IRI media is no longer reporting them.

The political circus in US is turning into a bizarre dark comedy.

But in reality, all the actors play their role as if it is a serious and truthful position

The right wing media, via Minds.com, TruthSocia, Gab and various Telegram channel, keep pushing for the line that the attack of Jan 6th was an inside job and the work of AntiFa and FBI!

It's really entertaining to watch some of them!

US Navy & Marine Corps Announce "Large Scale Exercise 2023" for Aug 9-18 with 6 Carriers & 25,000 Personnel

The exercise will simulate a global conflict (WW3 type exercise). 7 fleets & 22 time zones.

LSE 2023 is the second iteration of this exercise.

LSE 2023 brings together the combined firepower of the Navy and Marine Corps team across six maritime component commands, seven numbered fleets, and 22 time zones. The exercise is scheduled to run from Aug 9-18.

“The ability to command and control our operations across 22 time zones is how we will fight and win in a global environment against our competitors,” said Caudle. “To do so, we have to globally synchronize precision and timing in order to conduct high-end modern warfare.”

LSE 2023 merges real-world operations with virtually constructed scenarios to create a realistic training environment that allows our Sailors and Marines to train the way we fight, regardless of geographic boundaries.

LSE was designed to reinforce the Chief of Naval Operations’ effort to set the stage for advancing naval doctrine and tactics by globally integrating fleet operations with emerging technologies to refine and validate Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO) capabilities.

“Conducting these operations in a live, virtual, and constructive manner is key,” said Cavanaugh. “From the tactical end where we have the Sailors and Marines doing operations on the ground or at sea, all the way up to the command and control aspect, our ability to synchronize and conduct those operations are critical.”

LSE 2023 is the second iteration of this exercise and builds on lessons learned from LSE 2021 and warfighting concepts refined through Fleet Battle Problems.

Gen. Michael A. Minihan has ordered the 110,000 troops under his command to prepare for war with China possibly two years from now.

Minihan’s combustible rhetoric, including a directive for personnel to sharpen their marksmanship skills and “aim for the head,” is red meat for the China hawks in Congress who fear the United States is woefully underprepared should a conflict erupt in that part of the world. It has disturbed some in the Pentagon, however, as the general’s assertiveness has felt startlingly at odds with the Biden administration’s carefully calibrated attempt to reset relations with Beijing. Senior officials nonetheless have stuck by him — and he has pressed forward with an ambitious plan to “explode” into the Pacific in the event of a war.

At his headquarters in Illinois, Minihan said he “wasn’t being cutesy” with his bellicose memo but stressed that it was meant for an internal Air Force audience, not public consumption.

“There can be no ambiguity on what my expectations are,” Minihan said. “I’m not trying to be somebody that I’m not, nor am I trying to use theater or a pedestal. I’m simply trying to make sure that my command is ready to win if called upon.”

WTF is wrong with these people?

I am not religious, far from it, but I am just sick of watching islamophobic posts like this becoming the norm.

I freaking hate all religions equally but it doesn't mean I support such disgusting action.

And the moderators of that site seems to be ok with that.

It is "free speech".

I thought it's a joke but it's not : Europe’s Risky Plan to Avert a Winter Energy Crisis: Stash Gas in Ukraine.

Tucked between farm fields and forests, the Bilche-Volytsko-Uherske storage facility can stockpile more than four times as much natural gas as the largest site in Germany and connects easily to the bloc’s grids, thanks to Ukraine’s decades-long role as a transit route for Russian energy.

European officials are now contemplating whether to support links to Bilche-Volytsko-Uherske and other facilities scattered across Ukraine — home to the continent’s biggest network of underground caverns that can hold gas for when demand and prices spike in the winter. With EU sites already edging close to capacity — currently more than 70% full — storing the fuel in Ukraine could prevent a glut in the coming months.

To make storing gas in Ukraine viable, prices will need to fall low enough to justify the costs. The #EU will also likely need to step in to provide a backstop against potential losses related to the conflict.

The evolving initiative is part of efforts to avoid the panic that led to record prices and state intervention last year. To shield companies and consumers, EU governments rolled out €646 billion ($694 billion) in aid, according to think tank Bruegel, and they can ill afford a repeat.
(How many Geran2 drones does it take to wipe this whole thing off?)

So sending satellite into orbit is now a crime too? : US calls for UN meeting on North Korea's attempted satellite launch

— The United States has called for a U.N. Security Council meeting on Friday to discuss North Korea's attempted satellite launch this week, the spokesperson for the U.S. mission to the United Nations said.

The launch on Wednesday was an attempt by North Korea to put its first spy satellite into space, but it ended in failure, with the booster and payload plunging into the sea.

Washington condemned the launch, saying it used ballistic missile technology in violation of multiple U.N. Security Council resolutions and risked destabilizing the security situation in the region and beyond."

Another day, another Swedish Democrat (neo-nazi in costume) party leader caught by the police, this time for possession of child pornography.

half a century ago, the Iranian poet Hafez said "Preachers who act in such a way on the podium, they do the opposite when no one is watching"!

The neo-Nazi party of poor blood and accountability who blame all muslims to be pedophiles because their prophet married a young girl 1400 years ago, have been (again and again) exposed as people who watch, share and collect child pornography and some were even involved in such despicable acts.

It would be one thing is one member was caught in such acts, but the second largest party of Sweden is the most criminal one and almost half of their leadership have criminal record. About more than half of them have been involved in economical crime, cheated on their taxes, used government funded funds for private use and their friends, collected stipend while living in their own home and in one of the worst case, murder and cutting the head of someone.

All of these, don't even cover their domestic abuse cases, sexual harassment cases and libel and spreading hateful messages using anonymous accounts online.

And yet, more than 20% of the population who participated in the last election, voted for them. And there is a big risk that they may get even larger portion of the votes in the next election.
