Obviously this little freak could go volunteer to fight the war himself, but of course he won’t. He’s got no interest in making any kind of personal sacrifice. None of them do. Israel’s finance minister bragged the other day that having American soldiers fight Netanyahu’s wars “is the best for us.” Smotrich doesn’t want to die for Israel. Neither does Ben Shapiro. Dying for Israel is your job. You’ve got to wonder how people like this — liars without honor, wisdom or loyalty to the United States — wound up in positions of such profound influence throughout our society. How did Mark Levin get the president’s cell phone number? Why is Adm. Brad Cooper, the man in charge of the Iran war, secretly taking strategic advice from crazed Israel shill Mark Dubowitz? It’s all so nuts, and ultimately suicidal. Future generations will struggle to understand it. In the meantime, Trump will likely obey Ben Shapiro, as he has consistently for months. We can predict the results, because every neocon “victory” is identical: huge numbers of innocent people killed, disproportionately Christians, economic destruction, famine, mass migration and deepening authoritarianism at home. That’s what they’re demanding because that’s what they want. What can we do to stop it? Apparently not much. But we can remember what happened and why, so that history records the truth. Otherwise, when the war ends in disaster, as it inevitably will, Ben Shapiro will be able to blame you for it.
Ben Shapiro urges Trump to wage total war on Iran: "No one in America wants American casualties… We do understand that war does come along with casualties … we're willing to undergo those casualties in pursuit of an end and for a victory."
He says Americans would be fine with Trump blowing up Kharg Island and frames the destruction of Kharg and South Pars as a cheat code to instant victory.
Iran has said they'll respond to such an attack on Kharg by blowing up "all oil and gas infrastructure in the region in which the U.S. and its allies have interests" and plunging the world into a global depression.

One thing about adulthood that way too many people learn way too late (and have no choice but to learn the hard way): you have to be deliberate/proactive about everything. For the first time in your life, you can't be passive participant in anything.

Iran has a nuclear option that it can use at any moment: Hitting Aramco and other Israeli-US puppet Gulf regime oil and gas infrastructure and destroying the regional and world economy. It can begin with just a few strikes, then expand if deterrence is not established and Israel and the US in coordination with their regional Arab colonies continue their war project of collapsing and destroying the Iranian state, nation and people, up until the entire global economy is brought to a halt.
Russia is not coming to save you. China is not coming to save to you. In this world every individual is born and dies alone, and so it is with states and nations: You are born and die alone. You must take all the means that are available to you to protect your nation and people when you are under total war from history's most depraved murderous genocidal death-cult, the Zionist Israeli-US-NATO empire.
And that includes their "Arab puppet" Saudi-Gulf fascist Zionist dictatorships. These are not independent states. They are Zionist colonies. MBS and UAE's MBZ are not rulers of nations and peoples, they are colonial viceroys of Israel and the US. Everything they do is pre-determined by their masters who give them the orders, who set up vast networks of tortures and prison-guards to watch over their slave societies and behead and rape anyone who posts even a slightly critical tweet about their coke-addled porn-obsessed royals who are serial rapists who traffic in children and women: nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/19…
In 2018 the Saudi Israeli-US puppet dictator MBS repeated the Zionist Netanyahu propaganda about Iran and Khamenei being "today's Hitler" who had to be destroyed. This was as the Saudi-UAE Zionist puppet regimes had been waging a genocidal war on Yemen for years, played a key role in the dismantling of Syria as a nation for their Israeli-US masters by funding and arming ISIS-fascist death and rape-squads alongside the CIA and Mossad, and after they also played a key role in the fascist military coup in Egypt overthrowing the first democratically elected government in their history for being opposed to US-Israeli hegemony.
Then in 2019 the Houthis hit an Aramco Saudi oil facility, and they became scared to death. And by "they" I mean their Israeli-US colonial overlords. Now suddenly the global economy was being directly threatened. In 2022 the Saudi-Gulf colonies, again as ordered by their Israeli-US masters, froze the genocidal war on Yemen for now as they went after "the head of the snake", which is how they all see Iran.
The Saudis and MBS, always with their Israeli-US masters, then began a massive project to collapse the Iranian state from within. They set up a propaganda network in the UK under the name of Iran International, bought some of the most well-known and famous Iranian actors, artists, athletes, influencers, public figures, took control of their huge social media platforms, then deployed them to unleash the 2022 hybrid war against Iran, which I exposed in detail in these threads:
nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/15…
nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/15…
nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/15…
nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/16…
The project ultimately failed. The Iranian state, nation and people proved itself to be able to withstand these kinds of hybrid-wars aimed at fomenting civil war to destroy them.
Seeing this attempt fail over the course of 2023, the strategy then changed, especially after October 7. Knowing that Iran has the nuclear option to destroy the regional and global economy by destroying the oil infrastructure of its Saudi-Gulf Zionist puppets, their Israeli and American masters decided to shift the frontlines.
The Saudi-Gulf regimes were ordered to engage in the classic strategy that they always use, as they did with the fake Witkoff negotiations, the fake negotiations with Nasrallah for a ceasefire, the fake Genocide Joe negotiations for a permanent ceasefire to lull Iran into not retaliating with True Promise 2, and the luring of Qasem Soleimani to Baghdad to assassinate him which Trump, the Israelis and the Saudis organized: Weaponizing diplomacy as deception. I detailed that in these threads:
nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/19…
nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/19…
nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/19…
So what did they do? The Saudis and UAE, who for years had called Iran the new Nazis who had to be destroyed as they are the "head of the octopus" of resistance to Zionist Israeli-US-NATO hegemony which includes their Arab colonies, suddenly became doves. Overnight they became friendly.
There was this whole spectacle of a Chinese-coordinated deal. That was all bullshit. It was meaningless. There was no substance behind it, just as there was no substance behind the Hamas-Fatah supposed reconciliation facilitated by China. They just said some words, nothing concrete was committed to, and the Israeli Palgusano puppet Abbas remains a collaborator in good standing with the genocidal Israeli death-cult, jailing, torturing and killing Palestinians for his master. The Chinese tried to facilitate a diplomatic resolution to these conflicts, but that is impossible with the current power dynamics. You cannot have a diplomatic resolution between a genocidal Zionist colony and those that resist it. The masters would never allow it. If those chosen to occupy the current ruling positions in the Saudi regime had actually done that, they would not have existed anymore. They would have been replaced by other compliant viceroy puppets. And they and everyone knows it.
In the past few months they have ratcheted up the propaganda of being peace-loving neighbors who just want to see Iran thrive and do well and definitely don't have anything to do with any war that was going to be imminently launched and which they definitely had no idea about and hadn't been closely coordinating with their masters to ensure would have all the means needed to do.
In November 2024 the Saudis sent the head of their army to Iran for a bilateral meeting, and just two months ago, in April, they sent their Defense Minister to Iran who met with their top military leadership. Look at the video of that meeting.
Virtually all the Iranian military leaders you see there have now been assassinated.
As I noted in this thread: nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/19…, the Saudi-UAE Gulf Zionist colonies are an essential part of the war against the Iranian state, nation and people. They host American bases. They fabricate and spread Zionist propaganda. They are essential in the project of destroying Hezbollah in Lebanon. They are active in Iraq. They destroyed Syria. They have Egypt. And they will shift from this feigned fake passivity into active direct involvement with the genocidal war for Iran's survival once they believe the nuclear option of hitting their oil and gas infrastructure is no longer viable because substantial state and military collapse has already been achieved. They will arm and fund death and rape-squads to roam the streets of Iranian cities. Their media will launder them as brave heroes. And they will gleefully celebrate and rejoice over having finally destroy "the new Hitler and Nazis", as MBS said echoing the words of his Israeli-US Zionist masters.
But the nuclear option is still there now, and there other actions that can be taken alongside it to establish deterrence like closing the Strait of Hormuz: nitter.gq/zei_squirrel/status/19…. And they must be used now. They must be deployed immediately, and then scaled up as needed. Begin with limited strikes, then expand if deterrence is not established, and keep going. If they continue with their project of destroying the Iranian nation and people, then you will all be destroyed. Then all the Zionist colonies in the region will be destroyed.
If we burn, YOU WILL BURN WITH US.
Replying to @zei_squirrel
the immediate steps that already had to be taken right after they launched the war, and that should be taken now, are: Close the Strait of Hormuz, take out top Israeli officials, strike Gulf oil, EQUALIZE THE RATIO OF ELIMINATING THEIR HUMAN SHIELDS TO YOUR CIVILIANS. Explode car bombs. Suicide drones. Activate some of the many planned and ready to go intel operations you have inside Israel right now. Actually establish deterrence.
But they're not doing that. They are not doing that. And I will not participate in the lie that they are by posting videos of missiles hitting buildings and pretending that's enough.
I'm not going to participate in the project of destroying the Iranian state, nation and people.
The genocidal Israeli death-cult and the US-NATO empire are not deterred. They are not afraid. They are only emboldened. They dominate the escalation ladder entirely. Only when they hit oil and gas infrastructure essential to Iran's economy do they start doing the same even though it doesn't have near the same impact on them. It is the same "strategic patience" response that has only led to utter catastrophe, and will only lead to more if it is not changed right now, immediately.
They are going to kill Khamenei soon, and you all helped launder it by saying everything was fine and great and look how fast this rocket is!

My latest analysis on Zhang Youxia’s purge, published by @ChinaBriefJT at the @JamestownTweets, identifies the likely core causes of the purge and the timing behind it, based on official reporting over recent years:
Zhang Youxia’s Differences with Xi Jinping over PLA Development Led to His Purge
jamestown.org/zhang-youxias-…
Parts of my assessment were referenced by the @FT and @AP.
FT: ft.com/content/a065b8e9-c246…
AP: apnews.com/article/china-mil…
Executive Summary
(1) What happened:
Official statements point to disagreements with Xi Jinping over PLA development and training—and even instances of open resistance to his directives—as the key reasons behind the downfall of Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli.
(2) How it unfolded:
According to official press releases, Zhang Youxia’s timeline for PLA joint operations training did not align with Xi Jinping’s 2027 deadline for achieving an invasion-capable force against Taiwan. Zhang’s force-building agenda also emphasized a narrower set of priorities and placed less weight than Xi on “military struggle” as a standalone objective, instead integrating it into broader training activities.
(3) Why now:
January 2026 marked the beginning of the final annual training cycle before 2027. At this point, the divide between Zhang Youxia and Xi Jinping shifted from debate and planning to execution and direct noncompliance. This divergence became increasingly visible across the PLA and ultimately posed a serious challenge to Xi’s authority.
My sincere thanks to @Arranjnh for his timely support and editorial help in getting this analysis out.

Setuju, aku pun jg belajar banyak soal mental models. Beberapa diantaranya,
1. First principles thinking
2. Inversion thinking
3. Probabilistic thinking
4. Second-order thinking
5. Dst, masih banyakkkk lagi
Aku sangat merekomendasikan teman2 untuk membaca artikel di website ini ⤵️

Sedikit masukan untuk gen-z & gen alpha yg punya duit terbatas untuk spending.
Dari gen-x yang kebetulan sudah hidup lebih lama dan sempat 23+ tahun terlibat mengelola investasi global ratusan miliar dollar.
Kalo lo merasa perlu beli kelas untuk meningkatkan kemampuan diri, menurut gw skill paling penting yg perlu lebih awal dikuasai tuh how to think.
Pahami mental models penting.
Contoh: first principles.
Terus aplikasikan dalam kehidupan dan karir. Salah satu gunanya agar paham memisahkan antara luck dan skill.
Dengan paham pemisahan itu dgn benar maka bisa paham (contohnya) mana aset yg rationally valuable dan mana yg sekadar becek karena narasi dari cocot influencer.
Berikutnya akan paham mana yg bisa disebut investasi dan mana yg sekedar aksi spekulatif.
Selaraskan dengan ekspektasi.
Selaraskan dengan horizon investasi.
And act accordingly.
Jangan terbalik.
Aset spekulatif dibeli dengan mindset investasi atau sebaliknya.
Kalo udah tau bedanya, ga bakalan kegocek influencer YouTube modal kemampuan videografi dan kata sumpah serapah.

That said, if china actually achieved EUV lasers, it’s impressive, but let’s be honest, this kind of leap doesn’t happen without massive espionage layered on top of R&D.
Ultraviolet lithography machines, especially extreme ultraviolet (EUV) systems, are among the MOST difficult machines humans have ever built.
EUV machines aren’t expensive because they’re rare. They’re rare because they’re brutally hard to build.
You’re dealing with 13.5nm light where normal optics stop working. No lenses, only mirrors polished to atomic precision. Surface errors of a few atoms break everything.
There is no EUV laser. You create the light by firing high-power lasers at microscopic tin droplets to generate plasma hotter than the surface of the sun, tens of thousands of times per second, then capture a tiny fraction of the photons.
The entire system runs in ultra-high vacuum because air absorbs EUV instantly. Meanwhile, you’re moving wafers at high speed with sub-nanometer accuracy inside a machine the size of a bus.
And it’s not enough for this to work once in a lab. It has to run 24/7 for years, with insane yields, inside multi-billion-dollar fabs.
This isn’t a only a budget problem. It’s physics limits, industrial reliability, and 30+ years of accumulated failures and know-how across a hyper-specialized supply chain.
