But you have to give it to him, now putting illegal immigrants inside Guantanamo prison, Earths scum those illegal immigrants, worse than terrorists. As we will witness as they get incarnated. Wonder if they will try the same sort of persuasive techniques as with the other inmates? You know, that method that's not torture, drowning them to then resurrect? What ever was it called?

Ah, waterboarding

Then we have EU, backing, and backing some more. Until nothing is left except empty promises. You might wonder why? Simple, we're reacting, not acting. Acting costs a lot more than we are prepared to pay, you included. Reacting is cheaper, up to a limit when we have to act. But by that time we will be deep inside a phase change, a 'tipping' and you won't be able to do sh*. The other reason profits and white washing, hiding facts. All parts of our game.

Expected, I've been right all the way since I first started writing about the middle East and global warming, you can easily check up on my predictions and see for yourself. They're here for you to see. Makes me one of the best soothsayers existing, my predictions, doesn't they? I just need one of those wizardly hats.

That is if you're superstitious, otherwise it's just about human behaviors and using your mind.

How about it SIPRI? 

Now when our clowns forced us into NATO, still 'neutral'?  And where are your prognosis?

Says it all, doesn't it?

" MARCO RUBIO, U.S. SECRETARY OF STATE:

"Tonight, Israel took unilateral action against Iran. We are not involved in strikes against Iran and our top priority is protecting American forces in the region. "Let me be clear: Iran should not target U.S. interests or personnel." "

I just love that sentence "let me be clear". Heard it before, think is was something about smoking but not inhaling, wasn't it?

And that stumbling giant EU backing and backing, on all possible retractions of global methane and other green house gasses. Calling it necessary and a solution. With us nodding wisely, worried about our energy and living standards. And with the US of A  now dismantling climate science, whatever liberty they still think they have, and democracy.

That was another prediction of mine if you remember, home to roost. Socialism the worst danger existing to the American way of life, according to Mr Trump, worse that communism.

Just as socialism, 'indoor farming' can mean so much

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jun/12/research-reveals-24000-megafarms-across-europe

Crops, animals, vegetables and fruits, greenhouses etc. All of it a integral part of our western industrial farming practices. Growing out of all control as global warming kills topsoil's and environments


and you nodding wisely, calling it a solution
