2-March-2026. 📸: Pictorial representing the ongoing wars between U.S / Israel 🆚️ Iran. They told you wars in poor countries are “tribal.” They told you it’s “religion.” They told you it’s “politics.” That’s the story for the public. The real story… is profit. Oil. Gold. Diamonds. Cobalt. Uranium. Lithium. Rare earth minerals. The things your phone needs. The things missiles need. The things empires are built on. --- THE DIRTY SECRET OF MODERN WAR First-world powers rarely fight each other directly anymore. They fight through weaker nations. They fund rebels. They arm governments. They install leaders. They remove leaders. They create instability… then sell “solutions.” War becomes an investment. Chaos becomes a market. Bodies become collateral. --- HOW IT WORKS Step one: Identify a resource-rich poor country. Step two: Destabilize it politically or economically. Step three: Fund opposing sides. Step four: Let the country bleed. Step five: Move in with “peacekeeping,” “con...

Khamenei, one of the most evil people in History, is dead. This is not only Justice for the people of Iran, but for all Great Americans, and those people from many Countries throughout the World, that have been killed or mutilated by Khamenei and his gang of bloodthirsty THUGS. He was unable to avoid our Intelligence and Highly Sophisticated Tracking Systems and, working closely with Israel, there was not a thing he, or the other leaders that have been killed along with him, could do. This is the single greatest chance for the Iranian people to take back their Country. We are hearing that many of their IRGC, Military, and other Security and Police Forces, no longer want to fight, and are looking for Immunity from us. As I said last night, “Now they can have Immunity, later they ...

Men, listen carefully. School won’t teach you this. Society won’t warn you. Your boys won’t tell you the truth because they’re trapped too. That big nyash you keep chasing? It’s not pleasure it’s poison. It’s not love it’s lust. It’s not manhood it’s weakness disguised as excitement. Here’s the brutal truth every man must swallow: 1️⃣ BIG NYASH HAS DESTROYED MORE MEN THAN POVERTY Bank accounts emptied marriages shattered reputations ruined destiny delayed. All for thirty seconds of impulse. Ask the men who lost everything — they’ll tell you that nyash was the most expensive mistake of their lives. 2️⃣ BIG NYASH IS NOT A QUALIFICATION Curves don’t mean character. A small waist doesn’t mean a big heart. A nice body can entertain you but only a woman with values can sustain you. 3️⃣ BIG NYASH STEALS YOUR FOCUS While your brothers are building empires learning skills stacking money you’re scrolling drooling and wasting your destiny on Instagram distractions. Your future is begg...

The death of the 53-year-old, who was once widely seen as his father's heir apparent, was confirmed by the head of his political team on Tuesday, according to the Libyan News Agency. His lawyer told the AFP news agency a "four-man commando" unit carried out an assassination at his home in the city of Zintan, though it was not clear who may have been behind the attack.

📸: The prison officer.

By Brian Adams / 2 February 2026 : 09:55 ” No dish on the roof. No technician waiting somewhere between 8 a.m. and “maybe this afternoon”. Just… bars of signal where there shouldn’t be any. Outside, fields blurred past the window. Everyone was doing that same little ritual: tilt the phone, stretch the arm, curse the dead zone. One guy across the aisle muttered something about needing to send a file “before the tunnel kills me again”. Two minutes later, his video call came back to life like nothing had happened. Starlink’s new mobile satellite service doesn’t ask you to change your phone, or drill a single hole in your wall. It quietly hijacks a habit we already have, and flips the rules of coverage on their head.

That’s the spirit of Starlink’s mobile satellite launch. The company is ...

Surgeons have been banned from practicing plastic surgery after a billionaire patient died during a penis enlargement procedure. Belgian-Israeli diamond dealer Ehud Arye Laniado, 65, died of a heart attack during the procedure to enlarge his penis at the Saint-Honore-Ponthieu aesthetic clinic in Paris.

A Paris court on Wednesday suspended Guy H's licence and sentenced him to 15 months behind bars. His surgeon, who had been...
