Trump-linked oil firm to begin drilling in Greenland without official permission: Report | The Cradle
#Nuuk states that the landing of the drilling equipment was never authorized, even as the energy company plans to begin drilling in October
Greenland Energy, a US oil company established last year with ties to President Donald Trump, recently unloaded drilling equipment on Greenland's eastern coast without securing permission from local authorities.
Greenland's Department of Industry and Minerals issued a “strong warning” that it had authorized neither the shipment nor its arrival on shore, stating that every logistical step tied to the project must be cleared in advance by the mineral resources authority.
Residents of the thinly populated Jameson Land region had watched a tug haul a barge toward the coast and offload roughly a dozen containers. The equipment was brought in for planned oil exploration drilling at Nunap Qeqqa, according to the government statement

Books or Bombs? France’s Student Revolt vs. NATO’s Spending Push | MintPress
For the third week in a row, high school students across France are taking to the streets demanding more investment in their education. They want more teachers, smaller classes, decent school buildings and a public education system that works for poor and working-class students.
But their struggle comes at a moment when France faces mounting pressure to cut public spending while dramatically increasing its military budget. The question at the heart of this uprising goes far beyond education: Will France invest in its young people—or in missiles, weapons and war? Books or bombs?

The government’s response has only deepened the anger. Instead of addressing students’ demands, authorities have unleashed riot police, tear gas, grenades and mass arrests. More than 7,500 people have reportedly been arrested since the protests began, most of them minors.

For the First Time Ever, Putin Said 'THIS' About the Internet. | The Russian Dude
Vladimir Putin has finally revealed what his government is planning for the future of Russia, and the consequences could be far more serious than millions of Russians realize. As internet restrictions, mobile network disruptions, VPN crackdowns, and censorship continue spreading across the country, Putin has publicly defended these measures in the name of national security.
But what does this tell us about the Kremlin's long-term strategy, and why is the Russian government increasingly willing to sacrifice economic development, technological freedom, and public satisfaction to maintain political control?

From 2015-2022, the Saudi-led coalition conducted 25k+ air raids over Yemen, with hundreds more carried out since the July 2026 escalation.
Saudi Arabia possesses 900+ military aircraft, including 150+ F-15 and 72 Eurofighter Typhoon jets, plus AWACS, SIGINT and aerial refuelling support and US intel assistance. On paper, it’s the most powerful air force in the region after Israel’s.
But despite near-total conventional superiority, Riyadh and its allies have not been able to defeat Ansar Allah, which has no air force, nor stop the targeting of its infrastructure (such attacks have only intensified).
Just as the US and Israel discovered in Iran, their Saudi counterparts are finding out that air superiority means nothing if you can’t find, target and destroy the enemy’s hard points.
Emerging from the mountainous highlands of Saada, Ansar Allah’s home province provides fighters extensive natural and manmade cover. The region’s jagged limestone and volcanic rock formations are perfect for carving, and extremely dense and durable.
When the Saudis began their air campaign in 2015, the Houthis started engineering large-scale bases and workshops in the mountains, fitting them with thick concrete ceilings, industrial vents, blast doors and safety systems.
Yemen’s experience with fortress building goes back to the 70s, when President Saleh ordered the creation of extensive network of underground strategic command centers and Scud missile bases with East German, Soviet and North Korean engineering help.
When coalition strikes hit these sites, they temporarily block entrances, damage ventilation or cause cosmetic damage, but the bases’ inhabitants and their contents are left unharmed.
The only conceivable way Riyadh could hope to seriously degrade Houthi capabilities in this area would be to use US GBU-57 munitions. But these are only carried by B-2 bombers, and the US has as few as 6 left in its inventory after using 14 in last year’s Iran strikes.

🇺🇸 On US Elections and the Absurdity of "Pausing" of Ending US Wars Because of Them
It is incredible at this point it needs to be explained that US elections are meaningless esp. regarding foreign policy which hasn't and will not change before or after.
The idea a US war set up under Democratic presidents and a Democratic-controlled Congress and now fought under a Republican administration will somehow "pause" for midterms is so absurd, I can't even fathom the thought process taking place by those proposing this.
In fact, the Iran war technically started under the Biden administration when US-backed Israeli strikes were carried out against Iranian diplomatic missions in Syria, then on Iran itself - followed by the US-overthrow of Syria with direct war on Iran following only shortly after.
All of this has continued, uninterrupted after Trump took office (as does war on Russia and preparations for war with China), and will continue no matter which of Wall Street's representatives take office this year.

It was this exact flawed thinking that led millions of Americans and many commentators to enthusiastically anticipate the Trump administration ending multiple US wars, proxy wars and worldwide interference that has only - very predictably - expanded instead.
Understanding a problem is paramount to solving it.
If one thinks US policy is determined by electoral outcomes instead of by unelected corporate interests, focus will be placed on influencing otherwise meaningless elections only ensuring the problem persists.
This is by design to prevent corporate interests from being the focal point of public attention instead of endless election cycles and an endless supply of disposable politicians.
Western-style "democracy" is a system of control, not one of self-determination.
While electoral cycles are designed to move us emotionally - empirically they are an exercise in manipulating, not empowering us.

A Polish soldier was arrested for speaking the truth—that the Polish military is not prepared for war with Russia and that politicians should set an example for the nation by sending their own children to the front. Then law enforcement arrested him live on stream.
