Quote from: Solar on Today at 01:34:43 AMWhen your enemy calls you little Satan and Great Satan, and tells you they want to destroy you, you believe them.
No one wants war, and Iran was given the option to stop producing nuclear weapons.
Iran refused and left Israel with no other option but to destroy Iran's ability to hold any kind of war.

So far, it looks like Ayatollah Ali Khamenei survived, so far.

I have not followed this in detail. I think that Iran was open to limiting enrichment to 3.7 % and inspections.  Israel demands removing all enrichment equipment, and stopping all support for enemies of Israel in the region. Maybe removing their ballistic missiles?  There are civilian uses for the 3.7% uranium

IMO Israel wants war on Iran and wants the US to do this. Israel may call out for US help after Iran retaliates.

Israel smuggled in small drones ahead of time and used them to take out the Iranian air defense.

Some analysis on judge Nap. These guys were not anti Trump at the time of his election win.

Alex is a good daily news aggregator. He seems  depressed over Trump not being anti war. He says this Israel attack was mostly a decapitation attack.

Wonder if China is paying attention to the world stage right about now? There is one hell of a demonstration of what American fire power, the best of what the American fire power can do. And this demonstration does not include the vast navy.


I bet by Monday we will hear Wi has left the building.   

Quote from: patentlymn on June 12, 2025, 06:23:39 PMAs I understand it, Iran is wiling to limit enrichment to under 4 % and allow inspections but IMO Israel wants war. Judge Nap should be great Friday.

I have no idea what you're going on about...

Former CIA Ray McGovern says CIA Dulles hoped to "mousetrap"  JFK at the Bay of Pigs.  I.e. the Cuban exiles ere trapped on the beach so the US would have to enter the fight. JFK refused.  Israel may want the same thing if Iran clobbers Israel with rockets but Iran has been very measured so far.

—❗️🇮🇱/🇮🇷 BREAKING: Israel is NOW striking Iran's nuclear site of Natanz

JUST IN - Netanyahu says Israel's military is attacking the nuclear program of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

"We are at a decisive moment in Israel's history. The strikes will last until the threat is removed," Netanyahu vows.

I asked Grok about Garland Nixon. His to do list was a list of evil things to do

November 2022 Permanent Suspension:
Reason Cited by Twitter: Nixon's suspension notice cited "hateful conduct" for a satirical "to-do" list targeting U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken. The tweet was reported by a pro-Ukrainian group known as NAFO (North Atlantic Fella Organization), which claimed credit for flagging it.


February 2023 Satirical Tweet on Taiwan:
Reason: Nixon posted a satirical tweet on February 16, 2023, claiming "White House insiders leak" that President Biden had a plan for the "destruction of Taiwan." The tweet was misinterpreted by some, including a former Taiwanese legislator, as serious, leading to accusations of disinformation. Nixon later confirmed it was a joke, but it contributed to another suspension.



August 2023 Permanent Ban:
Reason Cited by Twitter/X: According to X user @nick_brana
, Twitter claimed it could no longer verify Nixon's account ownership, despite Nixon reportedly providing "mountains of evidence" to prove his identity. This was perceived as a pretext for a politically motivated ban.

Since I mentioned The Grayzone above.
They have their biases and opinions but when they recite facts they can back them up. I can stand people who have different opinions from me.
Many on the left hate them because they did not fall for Russiagate and do not support many leftist causes.

Max asked some aggressive questions at some AI conference and was escorted out.
He can be a drama queen and was here. IMO he wanted to be thrown out. 
Not worth watching IMO.

QuotePalantir-sponsored war tech summit ejects @MaxBlumenthal


Watch our report from the Special Competitive Studies Project AI Expo, where the leaders of the US war and spying state gathered for three days – and called the cops on any reporter who questioned them too critically

Their book launch for the Management of Savagery was forced out of the proposed bookstore Politics and Prose under immense pressure from the powerful in DC.

If you want a somewhat funny intro to Max Blumenthal watch the book launch below. BUT it is long.
Did you know that The Blind Sheikh was on the CIA payroll while planning the first WTC bombing?
The father of the Ariana grande bomber worked for UK MI6 and went to Libya to fight Ghadaffi?
John Kerry approved of ISIS advancing on Damascus on audio?

Quote from: Solar on June 12, 2025, 02:26:28 PMGrok Is Using a Far-Left "Fact Check" website to Smear and Censor Conservative Outlets on X with 'Low Credibility' Label – But Lists Far-Left and Liberal Mainstream Outlets as 'High Credibility'

X Is No Longer Trustworthy!

Recently, Grok and X have apparently turned to a new source to determine which media outlets are blocked and censored and which outlets get the green light.

What we found was very disturbing.

Grok and X are now working with the far-left "fact check" website Media Bias-Fact Check website to determine what outlets are trustworthy versus those that have "low credibility."

This is just astonishing!



https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/06/very-sad-grok-is-using-far-left-fact/

Years go a lib relative used such sources to smear The Duran. She believes these fact checkers.

I followed TGP on X and did not see any such X opinions on their posts.

I asked Grok directly about The Grayzone, The Duran and Garland Nixon. It gave plusses and minuses for all but as outside opinions not facts. . Grayzone and Nixon ID as left or progressive. I find Grayzone fact based. Nixon is folksy and long winded. Duran says they are reality based. Grayzone is used to being attacked by left and right so they try to back up everything.
