I. Backwards Thinking: Triggering A Fight-Or-Flight Stress Response From Toxic Dark Chocolate To Feel Better - Joachim Bartoll
The article criticizes T-Nation and Chris Shugart for promoting dark chocolate and supplements, labeling their tactics as "snakeoil". This time they’re promoting unhealthy dark chocolate and their similar supplement to feed unnatural gut bacteria to produce something we normally produce ourselves.
The author claims to not have felt sadness, helplessness, hopelessness, or irritability since transitioning to a hyper-carnivore diet in early 2018. If you’re fully nourished, your body and mind will work as intended.
The author asserts that feeling down does not require a quick fix but rather nourishment and limiting toxic load. This means removing anything plant-based and processed from the diet and consuming only animal-based food, which is what human physiology is made for.
Cacao pods are described as botanically berry-like fruits that are extremely toxic when yellow/orange, and their seeds (cacao beans) are the most toxic part of any plant. These seeds are high in antinutrients and defense chemicals, which, if chewed and eaten, would cause extreme damage to an animal, yet humans consume them.
The processing of cacao beans, including fermentation, drying, roasting, and grinding, causes oxidation of fatty acids and makes antinutrients and defense chemicals more available and harmful upon consumption. In other words, you end up with a cacao mass where all the fatty acids have been oxidized and are even more harmful while all the antinutrients and defense chemicals are much more readily available and will do even greater harm.
The improved mood from dark chocolate is attributed to a fight-or-flight stress response triggered by toxic defense chemicals like polyphenols and rancid fats. This response includes the release of epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine, increasing heart rate, elevating blood pressure, and redirecting blood flow to major muscles, making one feel more energetic and focused.
The author dismisses the relevance of gut flora adaptation, stating it simply assists in breaking down nutrients or toxins. The more crap you eat, the more “diverse” the gut flora, which actually is a bad thing as it shows how much of a retard you are — consuming sh*t that is not species-appropriate.
Butyrate, an important energy metabolite, is naturally produced in perfect amounts when following a species-appropriate carnivore diet and being in ketosis. Relying on bacteria like Blautia obeum to produce butyrate by breaking down fiber and other toxic compounds from plant-matter is described as a survival mechanism in the absence of animal-based foods, not the intended way to obtain it.
The author vehemently condemns Chris Shugart's recommendation to consume dark chocolate daily for mood improvement, calling it poisoning oneself with polyphenols and antinutrients. This practice inflicts a stress response that wears and tears on the body, reducing lifespan, while a healthy mental state can be permanently fixed by changing the diet to fit human physiology.
Consuming anything plant-based, including carbohydrates, seed/vegetable oils, defense chemicals, and antinutrients, inflicts a physiological stress response due to their toxic nature. This stress damages soft tissues and organs, blocks nutrient absorption, and can cause toxic buildup and tumors.
To alleviate feelings of being down, drained, or lacking energy and motivation, the author advises adding more animal-based foods, especially fatty ruminant meat and egg yolks, and progressively removing carbohydrates and all plant-based foods. Enormous changes in how one feels and performs are expected once an animal-based diet is approached.
II. Bombs, Markets and Mortality: What the U.S Airstrikes on Iran Mean For You? - Grace Shepherdon
On June 22, 2025, U.S. B-2 bombers "obliterated" Iran’s Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear facilities, escalating recent events with human and financial consequences. This marked the first American military strike in Iran in decades, with President Trump declaring it a "very successful attack" aimed at restricting Iran's nuclear capabilities and avoiding further warfare.
Following the attacks, oil prices rose modestly by approximately 1%, indicating investor caution amid fears of escalation, particularly concerning the Strait of Hormuz. The Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint off Iran’s coast, through which over 20 million barrels (approximately 20% of the world’s oil supply) pass daily, making it perilously close to causing global disruption.
A compromise of the Strait of Hormuz would inevitably lead to a jump in oil prices, affecting transportation, shipping, manufacturing, plastics, packaging, fertilizer, and agriculture costs. This could result in slowing economic growth, higher consumer prices, tighter central bank policies, more expensive fuel, volatile pensions, higher inflation, delayed interest rate cuts, and higher mortgage prices for the average person.
The conflict carries significant moral and emotional undercurrents, impacting real people beyond geopolitics. While Western audiences may feel a sense of emotional detachment watching events unfold through digital media, it is crucial to remember that this war is "material, human, and real" with lives disrupted, displaced, or ended.
To cope with the news without "doomscrolling," individuals are advised to stay updated but limit emotional overload, review pension/ISA allocations for exposure to vulnerable sectors, and track oil prices and interest rates that will influence household bills. From a global awareness perspective, it is also important to consider who benefits from escalating the war and whether continuous warfare is becoming a business model.
The article concludes that the conflict is not merely about missiles but about the economic, political, and social dominoes they trigger. Markets profit from volatility, civilians have no say, and the world appears to be approaching a critical point of potentially worldwide warfare.
III. Bullseye On Israel - Mike Whitney
The author asserts that Trump and Netanyahu "knowingly manufactured" the war with Iran through "fake negotiations" to provide Israel with a pretext for launching the conflict, which Trump officially joined later. This contradicts the idea that Trump was "dragged into" the war.
Trump's "pinprick attacks" on Iran reportedly inflicted "no substantial damage" to their nuclear facilities, as enriched uranium had already been moved to safe locations "several days before" the bombing. Military analyst Will Schryver indicates that the "fake 'bunker buster' attack" failed to "obliterate" Iran's nuclear facilities and will likely lead to Iran withdrawing from the non-proliferation treaty.
It is widely believed that Donald Trump is controlled by powerful Zionist billionaires and the influential Jewish lobby, which dictates US foreign policy. The attack on Iran demonstrates that Trump is not acting in the interests of the United States but rather to advance the Israeli agenda by eliminating Israel’s main rival in the region.
Iran has unleashed its "20th wave of retaliatory missile strikes" called Operation True Promise 3, which destroyed a biological research center, alternative command and control centers, and large parts of Ben Gurion Airport in Israel. Iran also caused vast destruction in a residential neighborhood in Tel Aviv using its latest hypersonic ballistic missile, which struck its target without triggering sirens.
Dmitry Medvedev, former Russian president, analyzed the US strikes on Iran as having gained "nothing and much was lost," stating that critical nuclear infrastructure was unaffected and nuclear material enrichment will continue. He also noted that Israel is under attack with people panicking, the US is entangled in a new conflict, and Iran's political regime has likely "come out even stronger" with people rallying around its leadership.
A senior Iranian lawmaker, Esmaeil Kowsari, announced that the Iranian parliament has voted to close the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz in response to American aggression and international silence. This move could send equities markets into freefall and bring the global economy to a standstill.
The author previously wrote in November 2024 that the "deep state" needs Donald Trump to "boost recruitment and spearhead the rush to war" because of his charisma and credibility with young men who fight wars. Trump's "unwavering loyalty to Israel" is seen as a critical factor in the deep state's approach to the 2024 presidential elections.
Iran now faces a "fight to the death" with two powerful adversaries aiming to topple its government and erase its civilization, compelling Iran to "accept this challenge and lead the struggle against aggression, starvation, ethnic cleansing and genocide". The author hopes Iran prevails, stating it "stands on the side of humanity, decency and peace".
IV. Entrepreneurship Can’t Be Taught in a College Classroom - Douglas French
Ludwig von Mises states that an entrepreneur cannot be trained, but rather becomes one by seizing an opportunity and filling a gap, requiring no special education. Despite this, over 2,000 colleges and universities in the US offered entrepreneurship courses in 2016, with 150 entrepreneurship programs available in 2023, including at prestigious universities.
Many highly successful entrepreneurs such as Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk, either did not attend college or dropped out, and none were schooled in entrepreneurship. Similarly, Ted Turner, Kirk Kerkorian, and Sheldon Adelson did not earn college degrees or take courses like "Business Model Development" or "Social Entrepreneurship in Action".
The author critiques Dina Dwyer-Owens's approach to teaching entrepreneurship, where she discusses the importance of values and attracting like-minded team members, which the author describes as sounding like "political correctness" rather than entrepreneurship. Dwyer-Owens's claim that students can learn to identify and establish a strategic planning process for a future business through coursework is labeled an "utterly laughable statement".
Ludwig von Mises defines the successful entrepreneur as someone who is not guided by what was and is, but rather arranges affairs based on their opinion about the future, judging the future differently from others. Conversely, a college degree certifies learning "what was and is," requiring memorization of professors' opinions rather than future foresight.
Frank Knight distinguished entrepreneurs by their "willingness to act in the face of uncertainty," where they often don't know if their product will work, how it will be manufactured, or who their customers will be. Spending four or more years on a college degree is deemed "dithering" in this context.
Israel Kirzner's view of an entrepreneur is a person who is "alert to the existence of the money and leaps to grab it" when seeing an opportunity. However, the author notes that merely acting is insufficient; entrepreneurs must also convince and motivate others.
Successful entrepreneurs, like Steve Jobs, possess a "reality distortion field" and the ability to "convince anyone of practically anything," blending charismatic rhetoric with an indomitable will to bend facts to fit their purpose. This involves persuading investors, lenders, and employees to suspend disbelief and "see the opportunity the entrepreneur sees: a world that could be but is not now".
Entrepreneurs must have an "enormous appetite for risk" and often "bend the truth" or "lie with conviction" to persuade others, believing their lies themselves. This is due to the "asymmetric information problem," where the entrepreneur possesses unique information and can exaggerate or distort facts to suit their needs.
Gary Hirshberg, founder of Stonyfield Farm, rationalized his untruths as "lying... for the common good" as long as he "ultimately do[es] deliver". He saw himself as championing employees' jobs and friends' investments, believing "anything goes, as long as you’re not injuring anybody".
Murray Rothbard and Hans-Herrman Hoppe agree that economic forecasting for entrepreneurs is a "systematically unteachable art" rather than an exact science, constrained by a priori knowledge about actions. For the entrepreneur, "the long run means little to nothing" as they face immediate pressures like raising money, paying rent, and meeting payrolls, potentially going bankrupt while waiting to be right.
The modern financial system, characterized by fiat money and increased regulation, creates more uncertainty for entrepreneurs than the gold standard era. Peter Klein notes that industry regulation, deregulation, or re-regulation makes economic calculation more difficult and hampers entrepreneurial activity, leading to poor long-term performance.
The author points out that two highly celebrated young entrepreneurs of the past decade, Elizabeth Holmes and Sam Bankman-Fried, are both serving prison time, highlighting the difficulty for young entrepreneurs to blossom in the current heavily-regulated and fragile financial environment. Some, like Elon Musk, are seen less as entrepreneurs and more as "rent seekers," building fortunes on government subsidies and tax breaks.
Despite entrepreneurship being unteachable, demand for entrepreneurship education rose significantly during the covid recession, with students perceiving new business creation as a catalyst for overcoming challenges and finding opportunities. However, these programs are criticized for focusing on "political correctness" like saving the environment and solving societal ills, rather than risk-taking or forecasting, and are likely to produce failures.
V. Guess What Israel Is Going To Do if Trump Doesn’t Give The Green Light for U.S. Air Strikes In Iran? - Michael Snyder
President Donald Trump stated he would decide "within the next two weeks" whether diplomacy would keep America out of the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict, a decision he prefers to make "one second before it’s due". Trump remained hesitant to commit to a prolonged foreign conflict, which he has long vowed to avoid.
Trump is determined to end Iran's nuclear program, either through Iranian agreement or through destruction by the U.S. and Israel. Destroying Iran's underground nuclear facility at Fordow is deemed necessary due to the risk of weapons production in a short period.
Israel cannot destroy Fordow by air because it lacks the capability to deliver 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs, making US involvement necessary. However, some U.S. officials doubt these bombs would be enough, suggesting "only a tactical nuclear weapon could be capable of destroying Fordow because of how deeply it is located".
If President Trump does not authorize US air strikes, Israel has indicated it will send commandos to take out Fordow. Israeli special forces demonstrated such capability in September by destroying an underground missile factory in Syria through planting and detonating explosives.
An Iranian missile recently struck Israel's Soroka Medical Center, causing black smoke and twisted metal shrapnel across the complex. Iranian officials stated the primary target was an Israeli military intelligence site, not the hospital, but Israeli leaders condemned it as a "war crime" and vowed revenge.
The IDF has continued to strike high-value targets inside Iran, including dozens of military targets in Tehran and the Arak heavy water reactor. The strike on the Arak reactor targeted its core seal component to prevent its use for nuclear weapons development, despite Iran's conversion to produce low-grade plutonium.
The conflict continues to escalate, with a third U.S. aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, being moved into the region to join the USS Carl Vinson and USS Nimitz. The author had warned about this "exact scenario" in April and states that "the dogs of war have been unleashed".
VI. Iran Now First Line of Defense for BRICS & The Global South - Pepe Escobar
Israel’s "shock’n’awe" attack on Iran, despite its initial speed, meticulous planning, and element of surprise, "essentially failed" to achieve its objectives. While Iranian electronic communications were hacked and vertical IRGC leadership was targeted, top Iranian technicians quickly restored their grid, and the tide began to turn.
The IRGC announced its enhanced capability to "seriously disrupt Israel’s command and control systems" using "enhanced intelligence," thereby breaching Israel's Iron Dome. Key infrastructure nodes in Tel Aviv and Haifa, including the Rafael weapons complex, a power plant, and an oil refinery, have been destroyed.
The destruction of key Israeli infrastructure, including its sole oil refinery, three ports, and one airport, demonstrates the IRGC's ability to "totally paralyze Israel’s economy". This constitutes a "historic" blow that has "definitely shattered" the myth of Israeli invincibility.
The author claims the US President (POTUS) "fell into a voracious trap" with his MAGA base already deeply fractured, and suggests the POTUS's stunningly infantilist post admitted knowledge of the Israeli attack all along. Diplomatic sources in Tehran believe Washington has de facto entered the Hot War, leading Iran to calibrate its next escalatory steps carefully.
The conflict is framed as part of a "Big Picture War" against BRICS, aimed at regime change in Tehran. This goal seeks to access Iran's immense natural resources, cut off China from energy imports and New Silk Road corridors, and open an "abscess in Russia’s underbelly," striking a "definitive trifecta blow" against three top BRICS nations (Iran, Russia, China) and Eurasia integration.
Russian intelligence has analyzed Israel's "Operation Spiderweb" as mirroring Ukraine's SBU tactics against Russian strategic bombers, leading to "serious questions" about Tel Aviv's direct involvement in sabotaging Moscow. This intel suggests the Trump "ceasefire" is a camouflage to force Russia to back off while NATO prepares a first strike.
The author highlights that the current escalation would be non-existent if Trump had accepted Iran's offer to get rid of highly enriched uranium and sign a new nuclear deal in exchange for lifted sanctions, with Iran enriching uranium only at low levels for civilian use. Tehran had even suggested a joint nuclear enrichment project with US investment plus Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
The Global South is increasingly aware that the "cornered West is an even more dangerous animal day after day, waging Total War under the mask of peace". Tel Aviv burning marks the "beginning of a new era," signaling that there will be "no impunity for a genocidal system anymore".
Discussions about the consequences of the conflict will occur at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum and the BRICS Summit, where there is a growing consensus that "Iran must not be allowed to fall". The author asserts that the "spell of unrestricted Western diktat has finally been broken," and the enraged West has shifted to "Totalen Krieg".
VII. Naming the Sources of Hidden Interference — From Egregores to the Elite... - Madge Waggy
The author characterizes the article as a "spiritual detonation" and a "mythic decoding," pushing back against deception that has ruled Earth for "far too long". It is presented as a "high-concept exposé" that may seem like fiction but could prove "devastatingly accurate tomorrow".
The author categorizes readers into three groups: those who "resonate instantly" and don't need convincing; those who "feel something—but aren’t sure" and are encouraged to research further; and those who "think I’m full of shit," advised to treat it as "spiritual sci-fi briefing". Regardless of category, readers are urged to save and archive the post for future reference.
The central premise is a "clarion call" about "forces working to fracture humanity’s collective soul," which are both "seen and unseen". These forces, referred to as the "Architects of Collapse," are described as a "constellation of parasitic influences coalescing to rewrite Earth’s operating code".
The author emphasizes that this is not paranoia or conspiracy theory fodder, but "spiritual and material warfare" occurring on multiple levels, where "the world is being pulled toward entropy by design". The "architects" aim to keep people confused, isolated, and disempowered through "distraction, deception, and division".
"Egregores" are defined as "autonomous psychic constructs fueled by collective fear, belief, and trauma," which gain power through repeated emotional investment and are often unwittingly worshiped. Signposts of Egregores include repetitive cultural narratives that breed despair or compliance, viral social contagions of fear or frenzy, and secret societies channeling collective energy into control agendas.
"Nephilim" are described as "genetic and spiritual hybrids" linked to "war, domination, and spiritual oppression," with their legacy evident in bloodline aristocracies, occult symbolism in elite rituals and architecture, and military-industrial complexes with shadow agendas. Countermeasures involve bloodline healing, exposure of hidden dynasties, and "sovereign embodiment practices".
"Architects" are presented as "Human or trans-human elites orchestrating societal collapse via technology, finance, and culture," often hidden behind corporate and political facades. Their signposts include overlapping memberships in secretive globalist bodies like WEF and Bilderberg, coordinated media narratives, engineered crises, and accelerated roll-outs of surveillance and social credit systems. Countermeasures against the Architects include public disclosure campaigns, whistleblower amplification, and grassroots rebuilding of resilient, autonomous communities.
VIII. People and organisations in the global network controlling corporations, covid, climate change and food supply - Rhoda Wilson
A 2011 Swiss study on global corporate control found that 147 European companies controlled 40% of the world’s wealth, with concentrated control flowing into a small core of financial institutions. The British financial multinational Barclays was identified as emanating the most concentrated control.
A 2021 German deep dive into the "covid scam" identified a global network with a core of no more than 20 to 30 individuals, including figures like Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus and Prof. Jeremy Farrar. Key organizations detailed in this network include the World Health Organization, World Bank Group, and the World Economic Forum.
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) appears to be near the top or center of the "covid plandemic" network. BMGF is also a major funder of corporate media and extends its network into global food and climate change policy, playing an important role in 'The Great Reset' through its funding of WEF.
Mark Carney, former Governor of the Bank of England and UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance, is identified as a key player in pushing the "globalist climate agenda". His ties to Rothschild and Rockefeller families and organizations like the Group of Thirty suggest a climate agenda beneficial to elites at the expense of the middle class.
Carney led the creation of the UK Financial Stability Board’s ‘Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosure’ (TCFD) in 2015, beginning a "power grab by central banks". The Central Banks and Supervisors Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS), initiated in 2017, included 145 members across over 90 countries by 2025.
In April 2021, the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ) was launched by John Kerry, Janet Yellen, and Mark Carney, with principals including BlackRock’s Larry Fink. All GFANZ member alliances must be accredited by the UN Race to Zero campaign.
Charles III launched his Sustainable Markets Initiative (SMI) and Terra Carta at WEF's annual meeting in Davos in January 2020, asserting that "fundamental rights and values of nature" must be at the core of the global economy. On June 3, 2020, Charles III officially launched 'The Great Reset'.
The ETC Group's 2022 'Food Barons' report revealed that many agrifood sectors are now controlled by just four to six dominant firms, enabling them to "wield enormous influence over markets, agricultural research and policy development". This consolidation undermines food sovereignty and is driven by digitalization, rising Asian Food Barons, and horizontal integration involving asset management companies.
The 2011 study on global corporate control found a "bow-tie structure" in the network of transnational corporations, with a small, densely connected core of 147 transnational corporations holding "significant amount of control". This core is primarily composed of financial institutions like Barclays, Capital Group, AXA, State Street, and Vanguard.
The study's data, from 2007, did not list BlackRock in the top 50 economic actors, but BlackRock significantly rose after the 2008 financial crisis. Governments worldwide called upon BlackRock for its risk capabilities, and by the recession a year later, it became the number one asset manager, purchasing R3 Capital Management and part of Barclays.
IX. The Iran Trap: Everyone Wants Americans To Fight Their Wars For Them - Brandon Smith
Ukraine's strategy against Russia is focused on escalation to convince Western allies of the absolute necessity of their direct intervention, with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky asserting Ukraine is a "guardian at the gate" for Europe. The author states that this claim is absurd, as NATO officials have previously claimed Russia was on the ropes, yet now suggest it can rampage through the EU.
The "domino effect" argument, used to justify American involvement in foreign conflicts, is dismissed as a lie that has "plagued our society for generations". The author contends that "most wars have nothing to do with us," and that Ukraine is already a proxy nation, with the real conflict being between NATO and Russia.
The author previously warned in April 2024 that the war in Gaza would expand into a multi-front conflict including Iran, and that this would benefit Israel by forcing direct US involvement. He predicted that Israel would commit to extensive aerial strikes on Iran in 2024 or early 2025, focusing on Iranian nuclear labs despite a lack of solid evidence for Iran developing nukes, using the "notion of nukes" for public justification.
Israel’s assassination of multiple high-ranking Iranian military leaders, including Mohammad Bagheri and Hossein Salami, is seen as Israel putting "the kibosh on any diplomatic plan" and likely their intention to start a wider war. These actions are described as "guerrilla tactics," not those of a country confident in its ability to win a conventional war, and are part of a long-term strategy to weaken Iranian allies.
Iran's active duty military consists of at least 610,000 troops and 310,000 reservists, along with ample conventional weaponry, hypersonic missiles, and drones, while Israel has only 170,000 active duty personnel. The author states there is "no chance that Israel will be able to fight them on the ground" without US aid, as their technological advantage alone will not suffice against Iran's numerical superiority.
The author emphasizes his primary concern is America and Americans, stating that Israel deeply needs the US involved in any long-term war with Iran. He views people with "overt hatred of Israel" or who "worship Israel" as "politically suspicious" and does not care about "ancient tribal vendettas" in the Middle East.
The "nuclear question" is portrayed as an angle Israel exploits to appeal to Trump, despite the author's claim that there is "no solid evidence that Iran has made much headway in developing nukes". The author compares these claims to "WMDs in Iraq," suggesting they are mere justifications for a wider war rather than limited precision strikes.
The Atlantic Council is identified as a key group attempting to bring Trump into a full-spectrum war in Ukraine and Iran. The council, a "globalist institution," aims for "regime change in Iran" as it views Iran as a primary obstacle to integrating the Middle East into the globalist fold, dismissing claims about nukes or assassination threats as mere justifications.
A wider war would likely make the Strait of Hormuz impassable, obstructing approximately 20% of global oil shipping and causing oil prices to skyrocket. The author notes that "everything Trump says he fears is more likely to come to pass if America gets involved in Israel’s war".
The author warns that Iran will receive ample weaponry and intelligence from Russian sources, prolonging the conflict, and will be compelled to secure nuclear weapons if capable. Chinese energy interests are tied to Iran's oil exports, and Pakistan and other Muslim nations are invested in Iran's survival, raising the potential for the war to spread far beyond the region.
On the political front, a deep divide will emerge between pro-Israel and anti-war conservatives, potentially causing Trump to lose a large percentage of his base if US troops are deployed. The author predicts an "aggressive movement to get rid of warhawks" in future elections and warns of direct consequences for Neo-Con politicians if escalation leads to world war.
The author "can’t help but smell another potential false flag event on the horizon" as a means to convince Americans to rally around another ambiguous Middle East war. He believes the public will not support troop deployments or conscription without a catastrophic attack on a US target blamed on Iran or an Iranian proxy.
X. What I Have Been Told Is Coming in Iran - Seymour Hersh
A report details what is "most likely to happen in Iran, as early as this weekend," involving "heavy American bombing," according to Israeli insiders and American officials. The U.S. government supports Israel's plan to remove any trace of a nuclear weapons program from Iran, while also hoping for the overthrow of the ayatollah-led government.
The White House has approved an "all-out bombing campaign" in Iran, with the ultimate targets being centrifuges buried at least eighty meters below the surface at Fordow. The delay in striking Fordow until the weekend was at Trump's insistence, aiming to diminish the shock of the bombing by the opening of Wall Street trading on Monday.
Fordow houses the majority of Iran’s most advanced centrifuges, which have produced 900 pounds of uranium enriched to 60 percent, "a short step from weapons-grade levels". US bombers carrying bunker bombs capable of penetrating to Fordow's depth will begin attacking the facility this weekend, as previous Israeli attacks made no attempts to destroy these deeply stored centrifuges.
The planned weekend bombing will also include new targets such as the bases of the Republican Guards, which have countered campaigns against the revolutionary leadership, and government offices housing files on suspected dissenters. This is seen by an informed official as "a chance to do away with this regime once and for all".
The Israeli leadership under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hopes the bombings will "provide the means of creating an uprising" against Iran’s current regime. There is also speculation about whether Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei will flee the country, with an unconfirmed report of his personal plane departing Tehran for Oman.
The article notes that only two-thirds of Iran's 90 million population are Persians, with large minority groups including Azeris and Kurds, some of whom have "long-standing covert ties to the Central Intelligence Agency". There is hope in American and Israeli intelligence communities that elements of the Azeri community will join a popular revolt against the ruling regime.
American and Israeli planners have not considered bringing back the Shah’s son, who lives in exile near Washington. Instead, there has been talk within the White House planning group of installing a "moderate religious leader" if Khamenei is deposed, a concept bitterly objected to by Israelis who "demand a political puppet to control".
The massive Israeli and US bombing attack could potentially leave Iran in a "state of permanent failure," similar to what happened after the Western intervention in Libya in 2011. The author concludes that Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu are taking America to "places it has never been" in pursuit of an "international win" for Trump to market.
XI. Zionist Israel as the Assassination Nation - Ron Unz
A sudden Israeli attack inflicted a "terrible, decapitating blow" on Iran's leadership 10 days prior, assassinating top military commanders, chief nuclear weapons negotiator, and prominent nuclear scientists, some killed in their homes with family members. This unprecedented wave of assassinations initiated a conflict that has now drawn America into it.
The author claims Israel and its supporters have "near-total control" over Western global media, allowing them to "easily transform black into white and up into down". This enabled public statements sympathetic to Israel from European and American leaders despite Israel's "unprovoked attack" violating international laws and rules of warfare.
The U.S.S. Liberty incident in 1967, where Israel attacked a US naval vessel killing or wounding over 200 servicemen, is cited as an example of how the US government covered up an attack by Israel due to the "small pro-Israel Jewish minority" deploying "tools of media mind-control". This transformed America into "powerless marionettes, jerked about by invisible strings".
Israel has "certainly now established itself as history’s most prolific and skillful practitioner of assassinations as a technique of statecraft," surpassing the historical Order of Assassins. While Western nations abandoned such methods for centuries as immoral and illegal, this policy dramatically changed after 9/11 due to "War on Terror" and Neocon influence.
A former CIA analyst, Kenneth M. Pollack, noted that the CIA's solid prohibition on assassinations has been "steadily eaten away" over the last quarter-century, with "targeted killings" by drone strike becoming America's "go-to weapon" in the war on terror. Ronen Bergman's 2018 book, Rise and Kill First, provides extensive details on Israel's long history of assassinations and lethal covert activity, suggesting Israel's body-count from foreign assassinations may exceed all other major countries combined.
The author suggests that accumulated evidence, including strikingly parallel incidents described in Bergman's book, points to Israel and its Mossad playing a central role in the assassinations of the Kennedys and the 9/11 terrorist attacks. For instance, Bergman's account of Ariel Sharon's false-flag terrorist bombings in Lebanon, including planting tons of explosives in a stadium, supports the possibility of similar operations in the WTC towers.
Bergman's book, despite its detail, is seen as incomplete and subject to "strict Israeli censorship," omitting important Mossad actions and historical incidents like Zionist assassinations of Lord Moyne and Count Folke Bernadotte, and attempts to kill US President Harry Truman and Winston Churchill. The author notes that early Zionists had a record of political terrorism "almost unmatched in history," pioneering car-bombs and deadly letter-bombs.
Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly stated that Iran's government rejected Russia's proposal for a defensive military partnership, preferring to remain "self-reliant and fully independent of Moscow’s influence". This decision to exclude a "full mutual defense clause" may have had "dire strategic consequences" for Iran.
The suspicious helicopter crash that killed hardline Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi in May 2024 is seen as potentially a Mossad assassination, influencing Iranian foreign policy to avoid closer ties with Russia or China and seek restored relations with the West. This suggests a successful diversion of Iranian foreign policy by Mossad.
Pakistan's surprising military support for Iran is attributed to leading Israelis arguing that after destroying Iran, their next project might be the "similar elimination of Pakistan’s nuclear weapons program". The author recounts the highly suspicious 1988 plane crash that killed Pakistan's military dictator Zia ul-Haq and top leadership, along with the US ambassador and an American general, with former US Ambassador John Gunther Dean believing Mossad was responsible due to Zia's nuclear ambitions and past Israeli attempts to recruit Dean.
The suspicious death of James Forrestal, America’s first Secretary of Defense and a leading opponent of Israel's establishment, is presented with "numerous very serious doubts" about the official suicide verdict. Evidence such as no official autopsy report, broken glass in his room, and a copied Greek verse not in his handwriting, along with his brother's claim that Forrestal planned to reveal suppressed facts about WWII, suggest foul play.
Mossad defector Victor Ostrovsky's books, By Way of Deception and The Other Side of Deception, claim Mossad trained the Chilean secret service in assassination techniques, engaged in internal power struggles leading to assassinations of their own agents and officials, and eliminated German official Uwe Barschel. Ostrovsky also revealed a Mossad plot to assassinate President George H.W. Bush, which the Bush Administration took "very seriously".
The author states that Israeli bombing of south Beirut, using "huge bunker-busters," totally destroyed an "entire city block containing numerous large residential towers," producing devastation resembling the ruins of the World Trade Center after 9/11. This is characterized as an "enormous war-crime" and demonstrates Israel's "total disregard for civilian human life," using heavy ordnance against a densely populated urban center to assassinate a single enemy target.
Israel and its Zionist predecessor organizations have an "unrivaled record of assassinations and international terrorism, often undertaken as false-flag operations". Historical examples include the 1946 King David Hotel bombing by Zionist militants disguised as Arabs, the 1954 Lavon Affair where Israeli agents attacked Western targets intending to blame Arabs, and the 1950 false-flag bombings against Jewish targets in Baghdad to induce emigration to Israel.
Prominent Israeli experts and media outlets are reportedly arguing that after destroying Iran, US military forces should be used to destroy Qatar, Pakistan, and Turkey to eliminate rivals and establish Israeli hegemony. Amir Weitmann, a top Israeli political figure, astonishingly threatened Russia on RT in late 2023 with "severe retribution" after Israel finished with Hamas.
The methods used in the recent drone attacks against Russia's strategic bomber fleet and President Putin's helicopter, described as "advanced drones automatically launched from a nearby location," are "remarkably similar" to Israel's initial strike against Iran. This strong correlation in methods and timing "strongly suggest[s] that the Israelis had been heavily involved in the attack against Russia".
The "Samson Option," Israel's doctrine of using its nuclear arsenal if collapsing, included targeting the Soviet Union in the 1980s with nuclear and thermonuclear weapons, despite the USSR possessing the world's largest nuclear arsenal. Israel also worked to develop miniaturized nuclear weapons that could be smuggled in suitcases into any hostile country.
The author concludes that Israel's "total impunity" stems from its control over American society and elites through money, media mind-control, blackmail, and occasional murder. This control is "highly-leveraged and perhaps ultimately fragile," and if it slips, could lead to a broad coalition of outraged victims attacking and destroying Israel, potentially with the near-total extermination of its Jewish population.
The author posits that the "religious and ideological roots" of Israel's population, particularly the belief that Jews have "divine souls" while "goyim" (non-Jews) are "merely beasts in the shape of men" whose primary purpose is to serve Jews, explain Israel's behavior. This ideology has "obvious policy implications," such as a prominent Israeli rabbi stating it would be "perfectly fine and indeed obligatory to kill an innocent Gentile and take his" liver if a Jew needed one.
The author details "horrific atrocities" committed by Israelis against Gazan civilians, including blocking food trucks causing famine, shooting over 100 starving Gazans in the "Flour Massacre," and videos of dead Palestinian children eaten by dogs or prisoners crushed by tanks. UN officials reported finding mass graves with victims bound, stripped, and shot execution-style, leading the author to describe Israeli behavior as "cartoonishly evil".
This news publication, "Coffee & Covid 2025", presents a collection of articles focusing on current events with a critical and often skeptical commentary. Topics include geopolitical developments, such as the war in the Middle East and a newly brokered peace treaty in Africa, presented with the author's unique theories regarding hidden negotiations and overlooked diplomatic achievements. The source also examines cultural shifts, analyzing the commercial failure of a recent Pixar film as a symptom of "woke" ideology and exploring a perceived conservative resurgence among young women, which the author links to a broader spiritual awakening. Finally, the articles question the official narrative surrounding the "Minnesota Murders," highlighting inconsistencies and omissions in mainstream media reporting and suggesting a deeper, more organized conspiracy.
I. ☕️ THE BOURNE COINCYDINK ☙ Monday, June 23, 2025 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠 AND Jeff Childers
War Update Focus: The current conflict narrative is designed to keep public attention fixated on specific headlines.
"Saturday’s strikes hijacked the headlines and now occupy every major outlet’s front page".
"This morning’s Wall Street Journal’s top war story was headlined, “A Cornered Iran Gives Few Clues on Response to Bombings”".
Panic Engines Overdrive: Usual panic engines are amplified, leading to fixation on worst-case scenarios regarding Iran.
"All day yesterday, the usual panic engines were enriched to nuclear levels: social media, cable chatterboxes, end-times podcasts, Indian smoke signals, and prophetic chemtrails—everyone gloomily fixating on worst-case scenarios".
"Iran’s closing the Strait of Hormuz! Russia’s handing over nukes! The Ayatollah just declared himself a non-binary camel!".
Trump's Trolling on War: President Trump used social media to muse about regime change and further strikes, seemingly enjoying the situation.
"President Trump rolled out one trolling tweet after another, musing about regime change, more strikes".
He was "essentially wondering what sort of royal robe he should wear to the State of the Union address next January".
Iran's Social Media Diplomacy: Iran's Supreme Leader used X (formerly Twitter) to make his first comments since the U.S. attack, focusing on Israel.
"”Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei,” the Journal reported, “in what appeared to be his first comments since the U.S. attack, didn’t mention the U.S. and instead focused on Israel in a post on X ”".
"Even Iran’s 106-year-old Supreme Leader is tweeting his foreign policy now".
War Propaganda Fog: Much of the reported war details are unreliable and subject to rapid change, making them not worth focusing on.
"If my updates seem suspiciously light on “10 buildings flattened” or “F-35s scrambled from Cyprus,” that’s because we’re floating in a fogbank of war propaganda".
"Very little of what we’re told survives the 48-hour news cycle. Almost everything is subject to change without notice or apology".
Iran's Intact Uranium Stockpile: Despite strikes, Iran's enriched uranium stockpile remains intact and under its control.
"Iran’s nuclear ambitions weren’t totally obliterated".
"As the Journal casually noted, “Vice President JD Vance signaled Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium is still intact and in Iranian control”".
Strategic Uranium Movement: Iran's enriched uranium was not at the bombed sites and might have been moved beforehand, suggesting advance notice.
"the enriched uranium apparently wasn’t at the three bombed sites".
"The stockpile was believed to have been mainly at Isfahan,” the Journal reported. “But it could have been moved.” Iran moved it beforehand —confirming advance notice— but leaving something to negotiate over".
Negotiations Over Fuel: VP Vance indicated upcoming conversations with Iranians about the future of their enriched uranium.
VP Vance stated on ABC’s This Week: “We are going to work in the coming weeks to ensure that we do something with that fuel, and that’s one of the things we’re going to have conversations with the Iranians about”.
"Vance pointed out that, following the strikes, Iran no longer has the ability to rapidly weaponize the fuel".
Theory of Backroom Agreement: The strikes might be part of a pre-arranged agreement where Iran consented to the bombing of sites after moving its fuel.
"What if this is all going according to a backroom agreement?".
"Suppose Iran agreed to permanently shut down the three enrichment sites. “Okay,” the U.S. negotiators say, “but we need to bomb them.” Then, “fine,” say the mullahs, “just give us a couple days to rent some U-Hauls and pack up the centrifuges”".
Russian Custody of Uranium: It's speculated that Russia might take custody of Iran's enriched uranium, a role they've offered before.
"Yesterday, Iran’s foreign minister arrived in Moscow to meet with Vladimir Putin".
"It’s possible they are discussing terms for Russian custody of Iran’s enriched uranium— a job the Russians have previously volunteered for".
Pixar's "Elio" Box Office Bomb: Pixar's movie "Elio" suffered its worst box office opening ever, indicating a cultural decoupling.
"The UK Daily Mail served up more Hollywood hot garbage yesterday, running a story headlined, “Pixar suffers worst box office opening ever as $150M movie Elio bombs”".
"A cultural decoupling is in overnight delivery".
"Elio"'s Woke Themes: The movie "Elio" promotes themes of emotional fragility and identity affirmation rather than traditional heroic narratives.
It "features a racially ambiguous, emotionally fragile boy whose friendship with a space squid affirms his tender identity and teaches him that being different is okay".
"Elio doesn’t learn to stop crying and fight back. He learns it’s okay to cry. That’s the arc".
"Elio"'s Anti-Traditional Messaging: The female lead, Aunt Olga, embodies a strong, independent woman who doesn't need a man, implying boys don't need fathers.
"The female lead, Elio’s aunt Olga, is a hard-charging marine who aspires to be an astronaut".
"The message is clear: a strong woman doesn’t need a man— just a government job and an adopted child to emotionally co-regulate".
Financial Failure of "Elio": Despite a large budget, "Elio" is unlikely to turn a profit due to abysmal worldwide earnings.
"the film earned only $14 million in overseas markets, for an abysmal worldwide total of only $35 million".
"With a $150 million budget, barring some kind of box office miracle, it seems unlikely the movie could turn a profit".
Speculated Government Influence on "Elio": The narrative of "Elio" resembles language found in government grant-writing for social programs.
"One is tempted to speculate about how much USAID NGO money used to prop up this kind of malarkey".
It’s "the kind of narrative that wouldn’t look out of place in a USAID funding report, right between anti-extremism puppet theater and climate resilience TikTok influencers in Micronesia".
NYT Accidental Redpilling: The New York Times inadvertently promoted the conservative counterrevolution among young women with a recent article.
"Over the weekend, the New York Times accidentally wrote a love letter to the conservative counterrevolution".
"Headlined “‘Less Prozac, More Protein’: How Conservatives Are Winning Young Women,” the article meant to sound an alarm but instead read like a recruitment brochure".
Conservative Women's Summit Growth: The Young Women’s Leadership Summit, a conservative event, is rapidly growing in size annually.
"The piece covered the 2025 Young Women’s Leadership Summit in Dallas, Texas, hosted by Turning Point USA, where roughly 3,000 sundress-clad twenty-somethings packed into a ballroom".
"This was the largest conservative women’s event in the country — and according to the Times, it’s doubling in size every year".
Shift Away from Feminism: Young women at the summit are actively rejecting feminism and traditional careerism for more traditional roles and values.
They’re "cutting birth control, cutting processed foods, and cutting ties with feminism".
"They’re trading antidepressants for raw milk, and TED Talks for Titus 2".
Empowerment Through Traditionalism: These women are leading their own shift rightward, finding fulfillment in traditional feminine roles.
"According to the Times, these women aren’t being dragged rightward by their boyfriends or pastors. They’re empowered, and are leading the charge themselves".
"One college student told the Times she was “so relieved” to finally hear someone say what she’d long felt but couldn’t say out loud: that careerism and hookup culture weren’t fulfilling, and maybe — just maybe — she wanted something older, slower, and saner".
Impact of MAHA Movement: The "MAHA movement" is identified as a key factor in young women's shift towards conservatism.
Rhaelynn Zito explained, “What dipped my toe into all of this,”... “was the MAHA movement”.
Alex Clark agreed, “Based on MAHA, they’re getting redpilled and now they’re showing up at the largest conservative women’s event in the country,” she said.
Disillusionment with Modern Life: Young women are finding feminism and career ambition unfulfilling, rather than blaming general modern life stresses.
"young women said it was a relief to hear a message that they had privately embraced but felt uncomfortable sharing widely: that it was feminism and career ambition making them unhappy, not the broader stress of puzzle-piecing together the responsibilities of modern life".
Callie Shaw said, “Women like me are realizing climbing this corporate ladder doesn’t fulfill you. They realize ‘Oh my gosh, I’ve been taking birth control, now I want to start a family, but I’ve put it off’”.
Spiritual Undercurrent: The movement among young women has a strong, underplayed spiritual component, mirroring a similar trend among young men.
"The Times soft-pedaled the spiritual undercurrent like it was trying not to spill its soy latte".
"Bible studies forming, scriptures quoted, drinking habits dropping, casual sex ending, and a growing hunger for meaning over materialism".
Covid's Role in Rupture: The pandemic is seen as a "moment of rupture" that shattered previous conceptions about culture, democracy, and freedom.
"Finally, the Times mentioned, but also underplayed, covid’s role".
"The pandemic shattered our conception of culture, of democracy and freedom, of checks-and-balances".
Trump Ends Rwanda-DRC Conflict: President Trump brokered a historic peace agreement ending Africa's "World War" between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
"two days ago, Business Insider Africa ran a story headlined, “Trump declares end to Rwanda–DRC conflict with historic peace agreement”".
"According to Business Insider, Trump brokered the historic peace treaty between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda".
Media Neglect of Trump's Peace Deal: Corporate media largely ignored the significant peace treaty due to it not fitting their narrative.
"Still, corporate media largely ignored the massive story".
"It doesn’t fit the narrative, especially not this week, with the Pentagon dropping missiles into Iranian ventilation shafts like a rogue Jedi attacking the Death Star".
Post-Globalist Foreign Policy: The African peace deal represents a new U.S. foreign policy focused on strategic resolution and access to critical resources rather than endless conflict management.
"The deal included troop withdrawals, disarmament of militias like M23, repatriation of refugees, and —here’s the real kicker— a minerals-for-security framework giving the U.S. access to strategic resources like cobalt and lithium".
"Buried in the story is the birth of something altogether new: a post-globalist foreign policy that trades endless conflict management for strategic resolution — and always with a keen eye on critical resources and a good deal for the U.S.".
UN's Ineffectiveness in Congo: The United Nations' peacekeeping mission (MONUSCO) in Congo achieved nothing substantial over 20 years.
"The MONUSCO mission, once the largest and most expensive peacekeeping operation on earth, achieved precisely nothing except giving warlords convenient targets and diplomats a reason to expense bottled water in Goma and fund numberless NGOs".
"And now, a real peace is finally brokered — not by blue helmets, but by the man the Western media calls a warmonger".
Minnesota Murders Suspect's Claims: Vance Boelter, the suspect in the Minnesota Murders, claimed Governor Tim Walz asked him to assassinate Senator Amy Klobuchar.
"Vance Boelter,... claimed in a letter addressed to the FBI —to Kash Patel— that Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) asked him to assassinate Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN)".
"Boelter claimed he had been secretly trained by the U.S. Military and was asked to perform the killing so that Walz could run for Klobuchar’s Senate seat".
Media's Lack of Curiosity in Minnesota Murders: Mainstream media is notably incurious about potentially explosive details surrounding the Minnesota Murders.
"Despite Boelter’s explicit, written allegation that Governor Tim Walz ordered a political hit on a sitting U.S. Senator, the media coverage has been painfully incurious".
"No mainstream outlet appears to be investigating any contacts or overlap between Walz and Boelter; tracing campaign donations, email records, or social media interactions".
Suspicious Details and Omissions: The FBI affidavit and other details reveal many unanswered questions and suspicious elements about Boelter and the murders that media ignores.
"This high-functioning ‘lone lunatic’ somehow bought a million-dollar estate, his wife was caught flush with $10,000 in cash, he had multiple vehicles, dodged capture for days, used high-end silicone disguises, rapidly replaced his unmarked transportation, and had access to weapons, intel, and logistics well beyond what an unmedicated fantasist should possess".
"The affidavit said that, after the shootings, Boelter went to the bank and emptied his accounts. Then— 'A third party identified as REDACTED then drove Boelter from the bank in an automobile.'".
