(πŸ“’) ALERT: See images. Mike is Director of the Center on Conscience and War.

Coupled with other signals I've been writing aboutβ€”and a Post report suggesting a possible attack on Kharg Islandβ€”this is...bad.

On Sunday I'll publish a full book linking the Trump-Epstein Scandal to the Second Iran War.

ICYMI: The attack Hegseth wanted us to believe was on Cyprus has also now been explained. The strike was specifically on the US sector of a UK base in Cyprusβ€”not on Cypriot soil or on UK assets.

I am continuing to try to figure out what was behind the drone strike on Azerbaijan.

Want to listen to one of the cult leaders? This grifting delusional contemptible PoS is the SPIRITUAL ADVISER to Trump, telling him that we are in a religious war against Islam that the Second Iran War is the culmination of. These lunatics will cause WW3.

Friends, it’s a cult. MAGA is a cult. Pleaseβ€”for God’s sake, after a decadeβ€”accept this.

Accept it, internalize it, and then decide what you think America should do.

And as you think about that, think about all the other cults you’re aware of, what they did, and how they ended.

My view is that we're in Year 12 of the Russia-Ukraine War and the superpowers haven't fired directly on one anotherβ€”so WW3 is a stretch

But *48 hours* into the Second Iran War the Kremlin began targeting our troops and became the "but for" cause of our losses

That looks *more* like a possible WW3

People online have been (in my view foolishly) suggesting that this is WWIII, or the *beginning stages* of WWIII, and my response has been, no, there is no possibility of that unless and until another major nuclear power intervβ€”

DONALD TRUMP KILLED 170 CHILDREN IN MINAB, IRAN AND THEN POSTED A SIZZLE REEL DECLARING "FLAWLESS VICTORY"

We are the bad guys.

We are the rogue nation we grew up being taught to fear and despise.

CNN’s first look inside Iran | CNN CNN’S Frederik Pleitgen encounters more checkpoints than usual and armed personnel on the road to the capital, but sees no signs of panic. Shops are open and stocked, and gas appears readily available...

Not really what the regimeβ€”the American oneβ€”has been telling us, what with Trump screeching on Truth Social about "unconditional surrender" and Iran being at the point of collapse.

OpenAI Had Banned Military Use. The Pentagon Tested Its Models Through Microsoft Anyway Sources allege the Defense Department experimented with Microsoft’s version of OpenAI technology before the ChatGPT-maker lifted its prohibition on military applications.

In 2023, OpenAI’s usage policy explicitly banned the military from accessing its AI models. But some OpenAI employees discovered the Pentagon had already started experimenting with Azure OpenAI, a version of OpenAI’s models offered by Microsoft, sources say.
