THIS IS NOT A DRILL: What every American needs to understand right now is that:

1) Trump just announced that any country buying oil from Iran will be completely banished from conducting any trade with America.

2) China is the No. 1 purchaser of oil from Iran. Therefore, China is, as of today, banished from all trade with America.

3) Trump specifically said, "They will not be allowed to do business with the United States of America in any way, shape, or form." Unless his words no longer mean anything, this is a policy announcement of a complete economic embargo against China.

4) It was a U.S. naval embargo against Japan in 1941 that provoked Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor and engineered American support for joining the escalating war in the Pacific. Now, Trump is repeating a similar tactic for China.

5) It's clear to me that Trump hopes China will lash out like Japan did in WWII, so that Trump's team of warmonger neocons can have a justification to launch a whole new war with China.

6) Trump is desperately trying to end the war with Russia so that he can "sequence" the three conflicts (China, Iran, Russia) and fight only one of them at a time. China is Trump's real target, as it poses by far the greatest threat to the USA in terms of AI dominance, robotics dominance, rare earths dominance, naval shipyard dominance, materials science, engineering, etc.

🇸🇾 How HTS' ground strategy intersected with America, 'Israel's' project in Syria | Al Mayadeen

...As the so-called "Syrian opposition" was pumped with funding and logistical support - directly by #Turkey and thus, secondarily by the US, #UK, and “Israel", the Syrian army was withered down, in need of serious rehabilitation and support. Syrian Army members reportedly received only $40 a month, thanks to years of #US sanctions and the adverse effects of hybrid warfare.

In 2018, #Russia advised #Syria that its army needed bottom-up rehabilitation, and Damascus was faced with the challenge of needing to shore up $200 billion in reconstruction nationally. As Syria struggled with these reconstructive challenges, #Assad resorted to reconciliations and negotiations that put a defensive approach in the backseat - but the foundation enabling an easy collapse, mutiny, and takeover had been set, 6 years before #HTS’ late November 2024 invasion...

US President Donald Trump shared an AI-generated image of himself depicting him as the pope, wearing a white papal robes on the Truth platform.

This comes days after he jokingly discussed his expectations for the new pope following the announcement of Pope Francis’ death last week: “I would like to become the pope, that would be my first choice.”

Pope Francis, aged 88, passed away last month at his residence in Casa Santa Marta at the Vatican, after calling for a ceasefire in Gaza in his final Easter address.

Trump's Suez Canal Power Play Could Push Egypt to War | Mint Press

Back in March, U.S. Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff warned that Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi’s government was on the verge of economic collapse. This admission underscores that Washington is aware of Egypt’s dire financial situation. Yet leaked details of a call between Trump and Sissi indicate the U.S. is now pressuring Cairo to take military action in Yemen and to open the Suez Canal to American shipping free of charge.

Egypt is the second-largest recipient of U.S. aid—behind only Israel—receiving about $1.5 billion annually. This aid arrangement began after Egypt agreed to normalize relations with Israel in 1979. These annual handouts have kept Cairo within Washington’s sphere of influence, incentivizing the purchase of Western weapons systems and ongoing collaboration with Israel on a range of regional issues.
