Quote:At least seven people have been killed after Pakistan pounded Iranian "terrorist hideouts" in a wave of revenge missile strikes The airstrikes on the Sistan and Baluchestan province on Thursday morning come days after an Iranian drone strike left two children dead Pakistan's Foreign Ministry described their attack on Iran as a "series of highly coordinated and specifically targeted precision military strikes" "The action was taken in light of credible intelligence of impending large scale terrorist activities" "This is a manifestation of Pakistan's unflinching resolve to protect and defend its national security against all threats." The latest strikes add to exploding tensions in the Middle East as the Israel and Hamas war rages on and Iran-backed Houthi rebels cause chaos in the Red Sea.

Quote:The unprecedented breakdown in ties between Pakistan and Iran have raised an alarm in a region which is already under turmoil. Though Islamabad and Tehran weren't the best of friends, they did maintain significant economic and security ties. But from Iran being the first country to recognise Pakistan in 1947 to now the 2 countries striking in each others' territory, why exactly did ties deteriorate so much?

Surveillance since J6 has been ramped up by the unconstitutional idiots presently in charge directing their evil minions to spy on citizens.

I see it in chat as well. I was going to post this a few days ago but it wasn't "mainstream" yet. 

The Chinese are still performing massive Gain Of Function "research" on coronaviruses. Now they have managed to tinker with one that has a possible 100% mortality rate in "Humanized Mice".

The mice have Human traits, genetically modified to have human Ace2 receptors in order to closely mimic what it will do to a human host.

I haven't seen it in written stories but the traits of this mutant virus from the information given is Asymptomatic spread with the infected not knowing that they are carriers for a couple of days and infecting others. This appears to last for 2-3 days before you know you are sick, after which, massive invasion of lung and trachea tissue, the eyes and finally destroying the brain within about 7-10 days.

Don't worry though, it will never escape the lab.......

So, let's speculate, what month are we getting our new Pandemic to trigger mail in voting or are they just going to start WW3 instead?

Fired up my Fire TV a few days ago and saw an offer for a 3-month free trial of Apple TV+ and thought that was nuts it was so long so hit the start trial button immediately. I'm so glad I did!

It was hard to know where to start with so many things I had heard or read about and so much sci-fi type stuff to choose from.

First I binged Monarch - Legacy of Monsters because Godzilla, of course! It place takes place in two eras, current day and in post war 1940s with Kurt Russel playing the modern day character and his son, Wyatt Russel playing the earlier character and it worked very well. I thoroughly enjoyed the story.



I tossed a coin on what to watch next and landed on Invasion. Centering around an alien invasion of earth, the story is told from the perspective of 4 groups of people in different parts of the world like the UK, Japan, America, Afghanistan and South America with their stories converging in the second season. I binged all of it with my only disappointment being the last episode as I thought there should have been one more to wrap everything up.



Continued next message because only 2 videos are allowed per post. Can we change that?

New TSM vid: "In the background of everything, global fertility is actually falling. Wonder why we're seeing so much immigration right now? The population is about to level and fall too. We aren't replacing ourselves, and hardly anyone is talking about it." Don't miss the ending 5 minutes.

Quick thread - good laugh at least. I'm picturing him complaining about the tennis balls in Planet Earth Voice 

Why are tennis balls yellow?

Each morning I meet with my Management Team for a daily metric review, and I always start with a "fun fact" or weird historical story. This was today.

Quote:It was only until David Attenborough noticed while working for the BBC that it was difficult to see a yellow or white ball in colour television that change occurred.

The legendary nature presenter told Radio Times: 'I was controller of BBC2 in 1967 and had the job of introducing colour.

Opportunity knocks ? Once the population stops being afraid of dying the dictators days are numbered; at least I hope that rule holds true. I would like to see sniper groups armed and popping CCP heads of state. Stupid to go head to head with the PLA yet Mao was supplied (Russia) and toppled the National government after they were decimated fighting off the Japanese.

The largest margin ever recorded. Now if he can live until the final presidential election or stay out of jail and away from the corrupt DOJ.

I have been to many of the places shown and I will say without the bugs and the heat they are beautiful !

Good speech
