The reason why the United States “cooperated” with Saddam Hussein; with the CIA playing an indirect but significant role in his rise to power – is because there was a certain personality type needed to control the Middle East.
The United States since then removed the type of personality needed in the Middle East, at the behest of democracy? Now we are complaining that Iran is in control of factions in Iraq. Yet we knew all along that Iran sponsors terror all throughout the Middle East, no surprise.
Once again, the United States is demanding Iraq change her ways. Had we had not killed Saddam Hussein – Iraq and Iran would probably still be at war. We basically removed a brick from the foundation which we helped to build. Saddam was simply boastful, to project a position of strength because he was at war with his neighbor. We started seeing WMD. We did Iran a favor. And Bush Jr defended his daddy because Hussein proposed a hit on him (more boasting).
Now Trump is talking tough again. No doubt we will soon be bombing somebody.
Again, this points to a lack of intelligence on behalf of the human race.
Notice as you read the article, there is nothing that points to our previous involvement in Iraq. Puppets and parrots…. Pete and Re-Pete. Sheer ignorance.
Marseille France is lawless. Her citizens trapped in a tightly woven web of drugs and murder. Parents losing generation after generation to meaningless wanton violence. All without proper redress by any officials.
France has a cancer. It is currently being spread to other parts of the body. There is no cure for cancer. How will the government respond. The government shall hold more talks.
Government Response So Far:
President Macron convened Élysée crisis talks with ministers, police, and magistrates to intensify anti‑trafficking measures.
Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez and Justice Minister Gérald Darmanin were dispatched to Marseille to oversee operations.
Reinforcements of specialized police units have already been deployed.
The problems they face in Marseille are monumental. Things did not get this bad for no reason. The country of France is under attack. Suppose the criminal element in Marseille decided to take full control of the city, right today.
Weapons do not work against cancer. And you left the treatment, way too late. What now – boyz-2-men? Your constitution is not credible enough to allow for actual force. (WA)
I will ask that you reconsider what happened in Myanmar. Before the military took complete control, they practiced on the Rohingya because nobody cares about the Rohingya Muslims. China abuses the Rohingya, as well. Aung San and his daughter are Bamar. She was only concerned for her people and had no regard for the Rohingya. Then once the military perfected their methods on the people who did not matter, they took full control.
President Trump is using a similar strategy. Once the network is in place for the people nobody cares about. A simple false flag incident, and the rules now apply to all Americans. You have to factor in that our legislators are weak. They will not stop him.
My understanding is that this process is now in the public comment phase;
“How would a member of the public respond to Trumps proposal during the comment phase, if it is allowed?”
Great question — during the Federal Register comment phase, any member of the public (U.S. citizen, resident, or even foreign national affected by the rule) can submit a formal response. Here’s how that typically works and what a response might look like:
📝 How the Public Can Respond
Method: Comments are submitted electronically via Regulations.gov, or by mail to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Timing: The proposal is open for 60 days after publication in the Federal Register.
Format: Responses can be short statements or detailed legal/technical arguments. They become part of the public record.
Impact: Agencies are required to review and address substantive comments before finalizing the rule. Strong, well‑reasoned objections can delay, modify, or even block implementation.
📣 Example of a Public Comment (Opposition)
A member of the public might write something like:
Code
I oppose the proposed requirement for visa waiver travelers to disclose five years of social media history.
This rule would:
1. Violate privacy rights by forcing disclosure of personal communications unrelated to security.
2. Chill free expression, as travelers may self‑censor online activity to avoid misinterpretation.
3. Harm U.S. tourism and business, especially ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, by discouraging visitors from allied nations.
4. Provide little proven security benefit, as malicious actors can easily create new or false accounts.
I urge DHS to withdraw this proposal and instead pursue targeted, evidence‑based vetting measures.
📣 Example of a Public Comment (Support)
Alternatively, a supporter might write:
Code
I support the proposed requirement for visa waiver travelers to disclose social media history.
This rule:
1. Enhances national security by allowing DHS to identify potential extremist affiliations.
2. Aligns with existing vetting practices for visa applicants, ensuring consistency across entry programs.
3. Provides transparency and accountability in the screening process.
I encourage DHS to adopt this proposal to strengthen border security and protect U.S. citizens.
Let us examine what Trump’s buddy, whom he helped get reelected is about to do to us (President Javier Milei – Argentina)
“I would like a summary on how Argentina reducing export fees could impact markets in America”.
Direct Answer: Argentina’s decision to reduce or suspend export fees on grains—especially soybeans—will make Argentine products cheaper on the global market, increasing competition for U.S. farmers. This could push down American commodity prices, reduce export demand, and shift trade flows toward Argentina, particularly from major buyers like China.
🌎 Key Impacts on U.S. Markets
Soybean & Grain Competition:
Argentina has temporarily suspended export taxes on soybeans and grains until October 31, 2025.
This gives Argentine farmers a cost advantage during the U.S. harvest season, when American producers traditionally secure strong export sales.
U.S. soybean prices already fell to their lowest levels in over a month after the announcement.
China’s Role:
China imports 100–105 million metric tons of soybeans annually.
With U.S. exports already restricted by trade tensions, China has leaned heavily on Brazil. Now Argentina’s tax cuts make it an even more attractive supplier.
This could further isolate U.S. farmers from one of their largest markets.
Broader Agricultural Pressure:
Argentina previously cut soybean export taxes from 33% to 26%, soymeal/oil from 31% to 24.5%, and corn/sorghum from 12% to 9.5%.
The full suspension amplifies these cuts, making Argentine exports highly competitive against U.S. crops.
American farmers face risks of price declines, reduced export demand, and shrinking margins.
Trade Negotiations Context:
Argentina is also negotiating tariff reductions with the U.S. to ease reciprocal trade tensions.
If successful, this could open U.S. markets to Argentine goods while lowering barriers for U.S. exports, but the immediate effect is stronger Argentine competition abroad.
📊 Comparison Table
Factor
Argentina’s Policy
Impact on U.S. Markets

Market Reaction
U.S. soybean prices fell after announcement
Lower farm revenues, tighter margins
⚖️ Summary
Argentina’s export fee reductions intensify global competition in agriculture, especially soybeans, at a time when U.S. farmers are vulnerable. The move benefits Argentina by boosting foreign currency inflows, but for America it means lower commodity prices, reduced export opportunities, and heightened pressure from Brazil and Argentina in global markets.
This can be added to the pile of evidence demonstrating how President Trump is out to intentionally do long term damage to the United States. Why was it so important for President Trump to get Milei reelected? Demonstrably, it was not good for America. If I remember correctly, he made threats for what would happen if Milei did not win. Even if the logic is to counter this effect by agreements from China, it is a long bet that did not need to be made. Trump does not honor agreements. There is no counter move.
I have been harboring an idea for well over 20 years that I still believe could be successful. If not in America then elsewhere.
The biggest obstacle to a parent in need of government support is childcare. The solution is self-help, as are all my solutions.
The establishment of federal childcare centers is my point. This would automatically come with a specified level of care. There will be no abuse in these centers. The centers would be staffed by the parents needing assistance. They will have a full shift of childcare available, everyday. They will have 5 days a week available to work a job referred by the Labor Departments jobs center. Two days a week they will work a shift in the childcare center. Working 7 days a week is nothing compared to what they are doing now. And their evenings would still be free, depending on the job they chose. We are talking about jobs that lead to careers.
Monetary payments to needy parents would be adjusted accordingly.
Problem solved.
(In America there will be no political willpower. this would be a lasting solution like SSA. we do not do that anymore. we now live for renewal fights. bearing in mind what is taking place, this could fall under the Social Security Administration – with matching budgeting)
Mamdani is coming with true criminal justice reform. As in the creation of the “Department of Community Safety”.
The critics are far and wide. The one thing we all can agree on, is that what NYC has right now is not working. This man is not proposing “stop and frisk” type solutions.
Trump is going to be pissed. If he had any actual power, he would turn back the hands of time, recreate slavery. As hard as he fights, Children of the Light -push back.
It seems to me that President Zelenskyy and Ukraine refusing to cede any land, scrambling to work on a peace deal. They seem to be operating under the impression that Russia will give back captured lands, as a part of any plan. Can we all agree that is not the case?
This war is being fought as if time does not matter. It is Wintertime. Does that matter?
There is a massive build-up to a war that is being lost, daily. The territory Ukraine is losing is lost forever.
It is my sincere belief that as things stand right now Putin will accept no less than full surrender.

📦 Procurement & Deployment Notes
Rapid procurement: UK shortened delivery times drastically (e.g., anti-aircraft systems delivered in weeks instead of years).
Funding sources: Recent £2.26B agreement funded by immobilized Russian assets, with two-thirds allocated to weapons and ammunition.
Industrial cooperation: UK is transferring missile technology (e.g., LMM) for local production in Ukraine, strengthening its defense industry.
Operational secrecy: Specific system involved in the accident has not been disclosed, but given the timing, it may have been RAVEN or LMM, both undergoing active deployment and testing in 2024–2025.
In summary:The UK accident likely involved newly delivered short-range air defense systems such as RAVEN or LMM, both part of Britain’s accelerated procurement program. These systems—alongside Stormer/Starstreak vehicles, Storm Shadow missiles, and massive drone deliveries—form the backbone of UK military aid to Ukraine.
📅 Timeline of UK Systems in Ukraine
2022
NLAW (Next Generation Light Anti-Tank Weapon)
First major UK delivery, rushed in early 2022.
Used extensively in the defense of Kyiv.
Starstreak MANPADS (man-portable air defense system)
Shoulder-fired, laser-guided missiles against aircraft/drones.
Training provided in UK and Poland.
Stormer HVM vehicles
Armored vehicles equipped with Starstreak launchers.
Delivered mid-2022 (six units confirmed).
2023
Storm Shadow cruise missiles
Long-range precision strike missiles for Ukrainian Su-24 aircraft.
First deliveries in May 2023.
ASRAAM repurposed (RAVEN system)
Ground-based short-range air defense using repurposed ASRAAM missiles on Supacat HMT vehicles.
First deliveries late 2023.
Artillery ammunition & vehicles
Continuous deliveries of shells, armored vehicles, and logistics support.
2024
Lightweight Multirole Missile (LMM)
£162M contract for 650 missiles, announced in 2024.
First deliveries late 2024.
Drone packages
UK committed £350M for drones, scaling deliveries from 10,000 in 2024 to 100,000 in 2025.
Air defense expansion
Additional RAVEN and Stormer units supplied.
2025
Mass drone deployment
Nearly 50,000 drones delivered in the first half of 2025.
Artillery shells & long-range missiles
£700M allocated for artillery shells, anti-aircraft, and long-range strike systems.
Industrial cooperation
UK transferring missile technology (LMM) for local Ukrainian production.
⚖️ Likely Systems Involved in the Accident (Dec 2025)
Given the timing:
LMM (Lightweight Multirole Missile) — just entering service late 2024 into 2025.
RAVEN (ASRAAM-based) — undergoing active deployment and testing in 2024–2025.
Drone countermeasures — large-scale drone deliveries in 2025, with testing of counter-drone systems.
These are the most probable systems being tested when the UK serviceman died, since Stormer/Starstreak and Storm Shadow were already operational earlier.
The little known aspect of the equation is that the UK has quietly confiscated 2.26 billion of Russian assets already. The accident occurred during training of assets purchased with Russian money, therefore attributable to Putin as a war crime.
This might help to understand why Putin is poking his nose in Europe, and off British shores. The United Kingdom, and America are heavily vested in winning this war.
We see through the aforementioned that the UK is transferring missile technology to Ukraine. Then we have this:
Direct Answer: The main countries transferring drone technology to Ukraine are Turkey, the United States, the United Kingdom, Poland, and (indirectly) China. Each plays a different role: Turkey and the UK are building production partnerships inside Ukraine, the US supplies advanced loitering and reconnaissance drones, Poland provides strike and surveillance UAVs, and Chinese DJI drones are widely used commercially despite official non-support.
Anybody who can say with a straight face that this is not a world war is a court jester. Putin has access to this same information.
