I'm proud of him for refusing to kill his Orthodox brothers for jewlensky and the talmudic tribe.

Just to be clear, Iran is saying what some analysts speculated earlier - the US used the "Hannibal Directive" on its own soldiers and equipment.⤵️

BREAKING:IRGC issues statement on the failed US rescue operation:

"Following the desperate attempts of the American terrorist army to rescue the pilot of their downed fighter jet, a number of enemy aircraft entered Iran in the early hours of April 5th."

Confirmed struck and forced into emergency landings south of Isfahan:
🔸 2 C-130 military transport planes
🔸 2 Black Hawk helicopters

"After Iran's fighters completed the encirclement — the contemptible enemy, in order to prevent the disgrace of Trump and preserve the hollow prestige of their army, was forced to heavily bomb their own downed aircraft, equipment, commanders, and soldiers."

Iran is now explicitly stating the US bombed its own trapped personnel to prevent capture.

"The disgrace of the trapped president and the defeated American army cannot be repaired by rhetoric, media warfare, or psychological operations."

Iran is famous for hunting Iraqis down for decades after the Iran-Iraq war ended. You can look it up.

I am the Director of Professional Signal Intelligence at LinkedIn.

Every time you log in, we search your computer.

Not metaphorically.

We run code that scans your installed software.

Every browser extension.

Every application.

We catalog it.

We transmit it to our servers.

We share it with a third-party cybersecurity firm you've never heard of.

The tracking pixel is zero pixels wide.

We hid it off-screen.

You never consented.

We never asked.

Our privacy policy doesn't mention it.

That's networking.

We call the program Project Handshake internally.

The Slack channel is handshake-telem.

In 2024 we scanned for 461 products.

By February this year we scan for over 6,000.

I don't know what all of them are.

Nobody does.

Someone on my team added categories for browser extensions that identify practicing Muslims.

Someone added extensions for neurodivergent users.

Someone added 509 job search tools.

That last one is my favorite.

We can tell which of our one billion users are secretly looking for new jobs.

On the platform where their current boss checks their profile.

That's networking.

We scan for 200 products that compete with LinkedIn's sales tools.

Apollo. Lusha. ZoomInfo.

We know each user's real name, employer, and job title.

We mapped exactly which companies use which competitor products.

We extracted their customer lists from their users' browsers.

Without anyone knowing.

Then we sent legal threats to the users we caught.

The EU told us to open our platform to third-party tools.

We published two restricted APIs.

They handle 0.07 calls per second.

Our internal API, Voyager, handles 163,000 calls per second.

In Microsoft's 249-page compliance report, the word "Voyager" appears zero times.

That's networking.

I presented our Software Disclosure Rate metrics at a leadership summit last quarter.

The conference room is called The Fishbowl.

Glass walls.

Appropriate.

There's a plaque on the wall.

Q3 Competitive Landscape Award.

I won it for the extension scanning initiative.

Someone asked if users had a way to opt out.

I said they can close their browser.

The room laughed.

I wasn't sure why.

I browse LinkedIn on a Chromebook with no extensions.

Most of the team does.

The platform that helps you get hired searches your computer every time you visit.

We know your name.

We know your employer.

We know your religion.

Your disabilities.

Your politics.

Whether you're looking to leave.

That's networking.

The system works exactly as designed.

I designed it.

Let's check in on the prots

Let's see where this goes

Starting 20 APR, 2026; the U.S Army will instate the following changes for recruitment/enlistment.
• Maximum age cap being raised from 34 to 42 years of age for all NON-PRIOR & PRIOR service personnel.
• Revised medical, and physical standards.
• Eliminating the need of a waiver (aka ‘looking the other way) for any and all single-convictions for possession of marijuana or drug paraphernalia for recruit/enlistees.

Several other changes go into effect, and are related to rewording/revisioning of the UCMJ (Uniformed Code of Military Justice) along with various grooming standards, and a rewording of things for mental health, and mental health-related services.

The U.S Selective Services, something that males HAVE to sign up for in the U.S at the age of 18 (they have from their 18th birthday to 6 months from that date to sign up), is used for a draft lottery system; the Draft Lottery has an age cap of 25 years of age, and will be raised to 32 years of age for the draft lottery.

Jewish settlers set fire to the 1600 year old Byzantine-era Church of Saint George in Taybeh, northeast of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.

The Church of Saint George in Taybeh is a 5th-century Byzantine site located on the eastern outskirts of the only fully Christian village in Palestine, featuring ruins of a structure originally built in the 4th century and later rebuilt by the Crusaders in the 12th century. The site includes a cruciform baptistery with a well-preserved font, a nave, two side chapels, and a nearby 4th-century mosaic depicting birds and flowers that is protected by a modern chapel.

BREAKING: President Trump has posted that the Iranian deadline is now Tuesday at 8:00 p.m. EST.

The original deadline was Monday at 8:00 p.m., but it has been moved to Tuesday.

I wish Iran would nuke that demonic sand pit. Let the chips fall where they may.

>Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins confirmed publicly that roughly 25% of American farmers have not yet secured their fertilizer for this spring.

>Fertilizer prices have surged 40-50% since the war escalated, threatening crop yields and raising grocery costs amid spring planting deadlines.

This is not good.

This appears to be the sequence of events:

➡️The Trump administration drafted the statement released by the Pakistani prime minister regarding the ceasefire (evidenced by a leftover header in the document).

➡️The statement included Lebanon as part of the ceasefire agreement.

➡️Netanyahu called Trump after the agreement was made public.

➡️Israel then bombed Lebanon, killing nearly 100 people and injuring around 700.

➡️Trump subsequently stated that Lebanon was not part of the agreement.

They used US tax dollars for the pilot, plane, bombs, fuel, etc. to destroy the pistachio industry in Iran so a couple of jews could dominate it.

Best Community Note ever

Ships are returning to the Strait of Hormuz, entering and exiting it through the toll booth established by Iran through the Qeshm and Larak islands.

The price — at least $2 million/ship.

Iran set that price for passage, and shipping companies appear to have agreed and are paying.

We've now reached the point where Trump has his henchmen threaten the Pope⤵️

The Pentagon Threatened Pope Leo XIV’s Ambassador With the Avignon Papacy

In January, behind closed doors at the Pentagon, Under Secretary of War for Policy Elbridge Colby summoned Cardinal Christophe Pierre — Pope Leo XIV’s then-ambassador to the United States — and delivered a lecture.

America, Colby and his colleagues told the cardinal, has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side.

As tempers rose, one U.S. official reached for a fourteenth-century weapon and invoked the Avignon Papacy, the period when the French Crown used military force to bend the bishop of Rome to its will.

There is no public record of any Vatican official ever taking a meeting at the Pentagon, and certainly none of a senior U.S. official threatening the Vicar of Christ on Earth with the prospect of an American Babylonian Captivity.

The reporting also confirms — with fresh sources and new color — what I first reported in February: that the Vatican declined the Trump-Vance White House’s invitation to host Pope Leo XIV for America’s 250th anniversary in 2026.

Ferraresi obtained accounts from Vatican and U.S. officials briefed on the Pentagon meeting. According to his sources, Colby’s team picked apart the pope’s January state-of-the-world address line by line and read it as a hostile message aimed directly at the administration.

What enraged them most was Leo’s declaration that “a diplomacy that promotes dialogue and seeks consensus among all parties is being replaced by a diplomacy based on force.”

The Pentagon read that sentence as a frontal challenge to the so-called “Donroe Doctrine” — Trump’s update of Monroe, asserting unchallenged American dominion over the Western Hemisphere.

The cardinal sat through the lecture in silence. The Holy See has not, since that day, given an inch.

Ferraresi’s reporting also adds vital color to the collapse of the 250th anniversary visit. JD Vance personally extended the invitation in May 2025, just two weeks after Leo’s election in the conclave.

According to a senior Vatican official quoted in the piece, the Holy See initially considered the request, then postponed it indefinitely because of foreign policy disagreements, the rising opposition of American bishops to the Trump-Vance mass deportation regime, and a refusal to become a partisan trophy in the 2026 midterms.

The nitrogen trap just closed. Three locks snapped shut simultaneously. The planting window is closing behind them. And the food the world eats next year is now being decided by molecules that cannot reach the soil in time.

Lock one: the Strait of Hormuz. The IRGC permissioned corridor allows oil tankers from friendly nations to pay $2 million in yuan and pass. It does not allow fertiliser vessels to pass at any price. Zero approved fertiliser transits in 24 days. The Gulf supplies 49 percent of the world’s exported urea and roughly 30 percent of traded ammonia. That supply is not delayed. It is denied. The gate opens for molecules that fund the gatekeeper. It stays closed for molecules that feed the planet.

Lock two: Russia. The world’s largest exporter of ammonium nitrate just halted all AN exports until after April 21. Three to four million tonnes per year, gone from global markets at the exact moment the Northern Hemisphere needs it most. The official reason is “domestic priority.” The strategic effect is leverage. Russia earns windfall revenue from the oil price spike its ally’s war created, then removes the fertiliser that farmers need to plant through the crisis. The disease and the cure, again, from the same address.

Lock three: China. Beijing has banned exports of nitrogen-potassium blends and phosphate fertilisers through August 2026. China is the world’s largest phosphate producer and a major nitrogen supplier. The ban removes the last alternative source that could have compensated for Hormuz and Russia. Three locks. Three countries. Three deliberate decisions timed to the same biological calendar.

The biological calendar does not negotiate. Corn requires nitrogen at the V6 to VT growth stage or kernel set is permanently reduced. Wheat requires it at tillering and jointing or grain fill collapses. Rice requires it at transplanting or yield drops 20 to 40 percent in low-input systems. These are not economic models. They are cellular processes. The plant either receives nitrogen during the window or it does not. If it does not, no subsequent application, no price increase, no policy reversal can recover what was lost. The damage is written into the biology of the seed.

The US Corn Belt window closes mid-April. European top-dressing is happening now. Indian Kharif preparation begins in May. Bangladeshi Boro rice transplanting is underway this week. Every one of these windows is closing while the three largest sources of nitrogen on Earth are simultaneously locked: Hormuz by military blockade, Russia by export decree, China by trade ban.

The USDA Prospective Plantings report arrives March 31. The FAO Food Price Index publishes April 3. These will quantify what the molecules already know: the nitrogen did not arrive. The yield loss is locked in. The 5 to 10 percent global drag will concentrate where the buffers are thinnest: subsistence farms in Bangladesh, Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, where a 20 percent shortfall does not mean lower profits. It means hunger.

Sri Lanka banned synthetic fertiliser in 2021. Rice yields collapsed 40 percent. The government fell. In 2008, fertiliser and oil spiked simultaneously and food riots erupted across 30 countries. In 2026, the strait blocks fertiliser while Russia and China withdraw the alternatives, and the planting windows close on a planet with nowhere else to turn.

The war is fought with missiles. The famine is fought with molecules. The molecules are trapped behind three locks on three continents, timed to the one calendar that cannot be paused, extended, or negotiated: the calendar written into the DNA of every seed in the soil.
