Israel's raison d'être is territorial expansion under the pretext of an existential threat.
If we include Israeli airstrikes, covert operations, operations against non-state actors in neighboring countries, raids in occupied territories, artillery exchanges, or actions by proxy forces, *almost every Israeli prime minister's tenure* has involved some (or a lot of) use of force beyond Israel's borders.
The reality is, Israel is a U.S. protectorate, and almost all of its 'foreign' excursions happen with the full knowledge of the U.S. Blaming solely Israel for its battles and wars takes the blame away from the superpower—the U.S.—that could guide Israel's behavior using its diplomatic, financial, and military aid but chooses to use these means to achieve its own hegemonic designs in the region.
Israel's and the U.S.'s narrative-setting rhetoric aside, Israel will continue to be the source of regional instability and will continue to drag the U.S. along with it. Alternatively viewed, the U.S. will continue to use Israel to maintain its status in the region.
Netanyahu can’t stop the wars because the Israel that he created is a momentum entity where Zionism is a fanatically aggressive ideology like Bolshevism or Nazism that needs to keep attacking and expanding in all directions to keep from imploding internally.
At the same time the IDF cannot fight without U.S. intelligence, arms, and logistical support so if that is somehow severed in Lebanon to maintain a deal with Iran I expect Israel will pivot to attacking Syria or attempting to finish the genocide and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians.

"If the KMT can regain power in 2028, it will fully restart exchanges with mainland China in all fields." This promise, made by KMT legislator Cheng Li-wen during her June 2026 US tour, has triggered a diplomatic disaster in Washington.
What was meant to reassure American allies quickly devolved into a high-profile failure. Alarmed by her overtly pro-Beijing rhetoric, the US National Security Council abruptly canceled a scheduled meeting with Cheng on short notice. Relegated to lower-level staff at the AIT Washington headquarters instead of the White House, Cheng faced a brutal diplomatic snub rarely seen for visiting Taiwanese officials.
The fallout goes much deeper than bad optics; US officials are deeply unsettled by Cheng’s defense of the KMT’s recent legislative maneuvers. The KMT recently used its majority to slash Taiwan's vital NT$1.25 trillion special defense budget. Adding fuel to the fire, Cheng publicly criticized US arms sales as a corruption-prone "blank check" and dismissed the strategic importance of the First Island Chain as a mere "Cold War mentality." Coming just months after her April 2026 meeting with Xi Jinping, these remarks have sparked intense backlash at home, with critics accusing the KMT of being completely absorbed by Beijing's influence.
While the KMT frames the trip as a pragmatic push for peace via the 1992 Consensus, Washington clearly sees a dangerous gamble. By trading Taiwan's defensive resolve for Beijing’s favor, the opposition has alienated its most critical international ally. This diplomatic fracture leaves a sobering reminder that Taipei's fierce internal political divides may now be its greatest national security vulnerability.

KMT Chair Cheng Li-wun just faced a brutal reality check in the US when Chinese protesters completely swarmed her for trying to play nice with the Chinese Communist Party. In a viral video, a furious crowd of Chinese citizens surrounded the Taiwanese politician outside a restaurant, screaming "traitor" and accusing her of collaborating with communists. They slammed her for selling out the Republic of China, fiercely chanting that the ROC is the only legitimate China and utterly rejecting any compromise with Beijing.
This public confrontation exposes the exploding anger over the KMT's cross-strait appeasement, proving that even anti-CCP Chinese nationals reject Beijing's political proxies. After leading a controversial delegation to Beijing to meet Xi Jinping, Cheng framed her US trip as a peace mission, but critics see it as a spineless capitulation that erodes Taiwan's democracy.

Who knew you could open Keeta Personel online (A Crypto Native OnChain Bank Account - Yes Real Bank Account).
And then import that bank account into a new RWA dex on that crypto chain and just invest when you get paid via direct deposit. Skip the exchanges.
Ownership!! I love this.

🤔 Pregunta para los que ganáis dinero con referidos, promociones de bancos, brokers, exchanges y apps.
Cuanto más leo, más dudas tengo.
Hay gente que dice que estos ingresos se declaran como:
➡️ Ganancias patrimoniales.
➡️ Rendimientos del capital.
➡️ Actividad económica.
➡️ Incluso algunos hablan de que podrías tener que darte de alta como autónomo si existe cierta continuidad.
Imaginad un caso típico:
• Compartes enlaces de referidos en X, Telegram o WhatsApp.
• Recomiendas bancos, brokers o apps que usas.
• Un año ganas unos cientos de euros y otro varios miles.
📢 ¿Cuál creéis que es la forma correcta de declararlo legalmente?
Y la pregunta que más dudas me genera:
¿A partir de qué punto Hacienda o la Seguridad Social podrían considerar que ya existe una actividad económica habitual?
Si alguien lo ha consultado con un gestor o ha tenido una experiencia real, sería interesante leerlo.
Os leo 👇

Man, this actually hits different for me. I’ve been trading perps on offshore exchanges for 3 years, always stressed about VPN drops, random KYC locks, or waking up to my account frozen. Felt like such a sketchy workaround as an American just trying to trade. Finally getting real global liquidity on Coinbase legally is agame changer. Feels like the industry is actually starting to work for us instead of against us. Thanks for grinding on this @brian_armstrong 🙏

Something that got missed in the noise last week: Coinbase got approved to offer true global crypto perps in the US. This took many years of work, and we're the first to offer this global liquidity to US users.
Backstory: For many years crypto trading has been moving offshore because the US didn't have clear rules, and perpetual futures were a superior product that traders wanted but it wasn't allowed in the US.
If we're being honest, probably ~half of all perpetual futures volume was Americans using offshore products via VPN with loose KYC controls (an open secret in the industry). Penalties for this were rarely, if ever, enforced, which as you can imagine, was frustrating for us as an American company following the rules. Others set up offshore entities and found ways around it.
After dozens of personal visits to DC, and many more from our policy team, I'm really proud we finally got approval to give US users access to true, global perpetual futures. This is important because we'll now see pooled global liquidity in perpetual futures, with the US and international markets being connected instead of fragmented.
Coinbase is strongest in the US, and the US is the largest market for trading, so there is now a chance to build a global network effect around liquidity. And US traders can now use these products in a compliant way with a US company, which hopefully provides greater customer protection.
Major credit to Chair Selig and Atkins on recognizing the importance of this for US capital markets. And we will keep working to update the system in a compliant way, and to be the best place you can trade.

Many exchanges see MENA as a high-value market, and for good reason.
A few observations:
• Users tend to have higher average capital compared to SEA and South Asia
• Trust and regulation matter more than referral incentives
• UAE remains the regional gateway, but growth is increasingly spreading across Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and other Gulf markets
• Stablecoins are becoming a real financial tool, not just a trading asset
• Local communities are smaller than SEA, but often more engaged and higher quality
Winning MENA isn't about generating traffic. It's about building trust, local relevance, and attracting users who actually fund their accounts.
No surprise nearly every major exchange is investing in the region.
