A U.S. War With Iran Would Be a Catastrophe

[Free guest essay at the NYT]
The United States is alarmingly close to getting dragged into yet another military entanglement in the Middle East, this time by Israel — which is looking less and less like a true friend.
Israel’s surprise attack on Iran on Friday has almost certainly blown up any chance of reaching the nuclear deal the United States was pursuing for months. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel has also recklessly endangered the 40,000 U.S. troops deployed in the region, putting them at immediate risk of Iranian retaliation, which could draw America into a war with Iran.
However Iran interprets our role in the attacks, Israel appears to have acted without giving the United States enough warning to take adequate precautions. Though President Trump acknowledged on Thursday that an Israeli attack might be imminent, the United States only began voluntary evacuations of military families and nonessential embassy personnel on Wednesday afternoon, while the State Department began drawing up plans for mass evacuation of U.S. citizens mere hours before the attack.
Mr. Trump, and all Americans, should be furious. Now Mr. Netanyahu and hawkish voices in the United States will almost certainly put pressure on Mr. Trump to assist Israel in destroying Iran’s nuclear enrichment sites, something that will be difficult for the Israeli military to do on its own and that even the U.S. military might be unable to accomplish. It would be the worst mistake of Mr. Trump’s presidency.
A war with Iran would be a catastrophe, the culminating failure of decades of regional overreach by the United States and exactly the sort of policy that Mr. Trump has long railed against. The United States would gain nothing from fighting a weak country halfway around the globe that causes problems in its region but does not pose a critical security threat to us. And the United States would lose much: most tragically, the lives of U.S. service members, along with any chance of escaping our tortured past in the region.

The Silver Lining in the Dark War Cloud Over Iran
by Larry C. Johnson / June13
https://sonar21.com/the-silver-lining-in-the-dark-war-cloud-over-iran/
Israel’s unjustified and unprovoked attack on Iran early Friday morning, marks the full-on start of a war that is likely to change the face of the region. I mince no words… this is war. But there is a silver lining of sorts — with Israel having to use its air squadrons to launch repeated attacks on Iran and to scramble fighters into the air to try to stop Iranian drones and missiles, the Palestinians in Gaza will get a respite from daily bombings.
So, what is happening? Israel’s initial strike included the use of trailer-truck drones — the same tactic that “Ukraine” used on June 1 against Russia’s strategic air assets. Israel appears to have had more success than the Ukrainians because the Zionist drones carried out some successful assassinations of senior Iranian military leaders and some prominent nuclear scientists. If you think that Israel came up with this idea on its own, you are deluding yourself.
We still do not have a clear picture of how much damage the Israeli bombs/air-launched missiles inflicted across Iran, but the attack was significant in its scale and scope. That said, it did not cripple Iran’s ability to strike back, which it did late on Friday and early Saturday Jerusalem time. Iran also did some significant damage to Israel, reportedly striking Israel’s military headquarters building in Tel Aviv and successfully hitting three Israeli military airfields.
In the world of the so-called international rules-based order, Israel is guilty of an unprovoked attack and Iran, in accordance with Chapter VII, Article 51 of the UN Charter, is retaliating appropriately. Yet, the West is condemning Iran and gaslighting the public regarding Israel’s claim that this was an act of self-defense. Bollocks!
I believe that Israel’s attack was part of a planned international intelligence and military operation, which included the participation and support of the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany. We got the first clue on May 31, when a UN watchdog issued two reports designed to create a narrative that Iran is a rogue nuclear state:

"The issue with Discord's invite mechanism is that it allows attackers to hijack expired or deleted invite links and secretly redirect unsuspecting users to malicious servers under their control. This also means that a Discord invite link that was once trusted and shared on forums or social media platforms could unwittingly lead users to malicious sites."
Interesting attack vector. Trusting 3rd party platforms with communication is a risky business. Reading their terms of service, any provider really, will likely give you nightmares when you see what they can "legally" do with the data they collect. But this is the price society is willing to pay just to communicate.
From a privacy perspective this trust is misguided, its naive. Because there is technology that is forever old that would help us stay more private even if we still chose to use these platforms. GPG.
If we want a society that isnt surveilled we have to take steps to protect our data, our lives, our daily communication where trust in a platform, company, or anything else is necessary.
If you want to get started using GPG for your own end 2 end encrypted communication, check out their Documentation https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/

And So It Begins: Leftist Monkey Wrenching Is Leading To Civil War
by Brandon Smith / June 13
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/and-so-it-begins-leftist-monkey-wrenching-leading-civil-war
If you thought that the leftist delusions of grandeur had finally hit their peak you are about to be unpleasantly surprised. There are no limits to the insanity that progressives will embrace in their pursuit of power, and they continue to adhere to the fantasy that they are the “good guys” despite the fact that most of the world has been telling them for the past several years that their ideology is repugnant.
The events in Los Angeles are just the beginning and the path this situation will take is relatively predictable. There is a large enough percentage of the US population (around 25% to 30%) that is inexorably rooted in the ideologies of Marxism and multiculturalism. Many of them might not even understand what they’re supporting, but they’ll still do what they’re told by their gatekeepers.
For decades now the progressives have treated America like an experiment in social engineering; the US has been their personal multicultural playground. What has them enraged today is the fact that they are hitting a wall of opposition. They aren’t used to being told “No” and the only way they know how to respond is by lashing out.
The agenda is simple enough to understand – Open borders, third world replacement of the native population, a complete overhaul of our culture’s fundamental principles and ultimately the utilization of the foreign populace and leftist activists as a weapon to eliminate any resistance.
Interference on a political level is met with mob violence, looting, rioting and eventually terrorist actions and assassinations. This is the classic model of leftist revolutions throughout modern history. They seem to be disjointed and reactionary, yet their efforts end up highly coordinated and conveniently timed. There is nothing “grassroots” about these movements.

And So It Begins
The hollowness of the status quo's self-correcting mechanisms is being revealed, and it's discomforting.
by Charles Hugh Smith / June 13, 2025
https://substack.com/home/post/p-165879990
And so it begins. Call it whatever you wanthow about the Great Unraveling for startersand perhaps it's appropriate to discuss it on Friday the 13th, as old tales and superstitions are part of the mix.
Let's start with two superstitions that are not yet recognized as superstitions.
There are very smart people who will work very hard to keep the status quo glued together. It's unwise to bet against them.
Technology is Progress and Progress is inevitable.
These seem valid until the tide turns. As the sand castles erode and collapse, these are revealed as belief structures, not facts. We like to think smart people, technology and Progress will solve all difficulties without causing us any pain. When the tide is receding, this seems to be the case. See, problems are getting resolved, technologies are making life better, and Progress is advancing everywhere.
But beneath this veneer of confidence, buffers have thinned and long-smoldering conflicts are catching fire. Nuclear ambitions, nuclear threats–these never went away, and now the buffers containing them have eroded.
The buffers of financialization and globalization have thinned to the point that crisis management has been normalized. Rather than rebalance a corrupted economy and ship of state when the second of two credit-assets bubbles burst in 2008, the very smart people who work very hard shoved the throttle to maximum and ran the speedboat right over the reef.

Coomer v Lindell Trial.
Closing arguments are scheduled for today.
Standard for civil suit is that the "preponderance of evidence" supports the assertions made by the plaintiff.
Please remember, that of the 150+ claims made by the plaintiff Eric Coomer, only 1 derogatory statement about Coomer was attributed to Mike Lindell…in a defamation lawsuit.
This lawsuit is not about election integrity, it is a defamation lawsuit, which has ro be shown to have been made with actual malice -that is that Mike Lindell knew it was "false" at the time he made the statement.
Without TheResearcher2020 Actual Malice is nearly impossible to overcome. We shall see in the coming days.
There are 2 additional lawsuits by Coomer still pending where TheResearcher2020 is a pivotal character. Widely believed to be Joey.

CBS News Promotes Merchandise for “No Kings” Protests

When the pretenses drop completely, we see CBS news promoting “Merch” for “No Kings” protesters.
I don’t ever want to hear a word about corporate media pretending to be unbiased and apolitical.
[SOURCE]
This official promotion for the protest groups comes as CBS is still in litigation for a lawsuit from President Trump as an outcome of their fabricating a response for Kamala Harris during a pre-election day interview. Unreal…. well, not really, but sheesh.
(FYI: Walmart policy is to give to them)
And they think we're stupid enough to believe this is a grassroots movement…
