This is only the latest in a series of revelations closely linking Israel to drug cartels, military juntas, and death squads throughout Latin America's history, as well as to the plundering of common resources and to systems of surveillance and repression.

The Left is pushing for identification to use the internet while pushing for no identification to vote. Think about that.

Name one country, any country, that would go along with a MOU or deal preventing or conditioning its ability to defend itself against a massive terrorist force on its border firing missiles and drones into its towns and cities.  Name one.  And it has to get permission to defend itself or not strike too hard in response to imminent or actual terror attacks?  And for what?  A promise by a terrorist regime that funds terror proxies and seeks to annihilate it that it will comply with a paper agreement, for the first time in its existence, to abandon its ideological ambitions?  Even now, if I understand what's in play, we are stating that we can always resort to military action if Iran does not honor its obligations.  If Iran fires missiles at our bases and armed forces in the region, or if we think it will do so, what will we do?  What did we do?  We hammered the regime.  After having been accused falsely and repeatedly of committing genocide in Gaza, despite the repeated reports and now subsequent reports that this was simply not true, today Israel is accused of blowing up buildings in Lebanon and being too aggressive.  Hezbollah, which uses the same tactics as Hamas and the other Iranian regime terror proxies, may literally become a protectorate of sorts?  I sure as hell hope I am misreading and mishearing things.  If there is confusion it is due to the withholding of the MOU and publicly stated comments, not to those of us who can see and hear.

The world's first black pilot: Ottoman Empire Pilot Ahmed Ali Efendi (1916) Ahmed Ali Efendi is often cited as one of the earliest Black military aviators in history and is widely recognized in Turkish sources as the first known Black pilot of the Ottoman Empire. He earned his wings during a period when aviation was still in its infancy, just over a decade after the Wright brothers' first powered flight in 1903. By 1916, the Ottoman Air Force was engaged in World War I operations across multiple fronts, including the Middle East, the Dardanelles, and Mesopotamia. Military aviation at the time was extremely dangerous. Aircraft were typically constructed from wood, wire, and fabric, with limited instrumentation and high accident rates. The Ottoman Empire established its first flight school in 1912, becoming one of the earliest nations to develop a military aviation program. During the war, Ottoman pilots flew reconnaissance missions, artillery spotting operations, and limited aerial combat sorties. When World War I began in 1914, the entire Ottoman Air Force possessed fewer than 20 operational aircraft. By comparison, the major powers would collectively build more than 200,000 military aircraft during the course of the war, demonstrating the rapid evolution of aviation technology between 1914 and 1918. © History Pictures #archaeohistories

#Damascus: Another car bombing in Damascus Salah Al-Saleh, head of the Judicial Palace department in #Babilla, was injured today, June 16, 2026, after an IED detonated in his car in the Daf Al-Shawk neighborhood of Damascus. The blast wounded him and resulted in the amputation of his foot. Al-Saleh is originally from #Idlib and lives in the Daf Al-Shawk neighborhood in Damascus. It is worth noting that two cars were blown up in Damascus last May. So far this June, an IED was placed under a car in the Ghab Plain. Two days ago, another car exploded in the Bab area in the Aleppo countryside in what appears to have been a targeted IED attack against a GS militiant.

Extremists gather in Barzeh, Damascus demanding the expulsion of Alawites. They chant, "Go home/go back/Shabiha are going to die!"

🇺🇸🇮🇱 The U.S. is quietly beginning to pull military assets out of Israel, starting with about 20% of its aerial refueling planes at Ben Gurion Airport. The withdrawal follows a memorandum of understanding between Washington and Tehran. Aerial refueling planes are force multipliers. They extend how far and how long combat aircraft can operate. Their partial withdrawal suggests the U.S. no longer needs maximum strike capability positioned in Israel. Source: n12 / Writer: Monica
