What The Actual Fuck

That was the first thought that I had when US Ambassador Pete Hoekstra opened his mouth again. Then again, his lifetime service ends in 1089 days, so Canada survive his term for another three years? So what brought this about? Well, CBC gives us (at https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/norad-canada-us-f35-9.7059800) ‘NORAD pact would change if Canada pulls back from F-35 order, warns U.S. ambassador’ where we see “and would fly them more often into Canadian airspace to address threats approaching the U.S.” what does that flagrantly inappropriate piece of (whatever he is) think he is by violating Canadian airspace without consent of the Canadian government? A case might be made on Changing NORAD, they are usually too busy tracking Santa Claus with their systems, making these systems active one day a year. But to give Canada the setting that we  are given that “Ambassador Hoekstra describes the current defence relationship as “awesome,” but says such interventions by the U.S. military over Canada would increase if Canada does not increase its purchase of F-35s beyond the 16 currently on order.” And the setting that America has any input in HOW MANY and which airplanes come the Seraglio of the United States (their new nickname) is beyond his seat and beyond his entitlement (as I personally see it). So when I see “U.S. President Donald Trump’s ambassador to Canada is warning of consequences to the continental defence pact if Canada does not move forward with the purchase of 88 F-35 fighter jets.” I feel entitled to loosely lose it. Canada is making his requirement known and it is THEIR opinion that the Saab JAS 39 Gripen can do the job as the choice for Canadian defence, that is up to the people who are empowered (in Canada) to do so, not for the White House, or are the losses that the White House enacted over themselves no longer paying for the electricity bill? You know that stuff that is coming from Canada and now comes with a 100% tariff?

In this light I would personally offer the setting that the 88 F-35’s are an option when it comes with a 63.4% discount, but then it would still be up for Minister Mélanie Joly and Minister David McGuinty to give that go ahead, but in no way is there any acceptance that this is up to American Ambassador Pete Hoekstra, or to even suggest that USA planes fly into Canada (without permission) and take optionally seen as hostile actions. And as NORAD is also in Alaska, there is enough time for the Canadian air force to take positive actions before there is an actual issue on United States soil. 

So even as the article in CBC ends with ““That’s crazy. We’re not a threat,” said Hoekstra.” I would like to add “Not we, you are the threat Ambassador Hoekstra” and you better realise that really soon before you run your mouth again in anti-Canadian outbursts, as the selling through threats of buying airlines to counter invasion tactics, it shows the ‘craft’ level of a lousy second hand car salesman and Canada made its choice when it selected the Saab to do the job at  25% of the cost and perhaps it was partially selected because your boss ran his mouth with those ‘51st state’ remarks. So at present there are concerns that the United States needs to sell at least 105 F-35 airplanes to counter the setting of “US Treasury bonds experienced a significant sell-off, with yields on 10-year notes reaching 4.3% and 30-year yields touching 4.9%. This surge in yields, the highest since September 2025, was driven by concerns over potential trade wars with Europe and geopolitical tensions. Foreign investors hold roughly 31% ($9.4 trillion) of US debt, and some European entities have signaled a re-evaluation of their holdings.” It comes with the unconfirmed information from a source that Goldman Sachs had sold over 800 billion in bonds. I only had one source and no validation of this, not with the SEC (who had over 4200 documents of actions by Goldman Sachs), but it might not be easy to find as 800 billion+ implies that the United States and its dollar are pretty much done for, not something you want to herald to the media. And I was ready to reject it, but in comes Ambassador Pete Hoekstra making demands that Canada takes a 100% of the 88 Lockheed Martin dinky toys (could be corgi toys), now that lose statement of sold bonds seems a little too ‘conveniently’ out there. But there is another setting, since when does any government bully its way to the purchase line with an overpriced drone that requires a pilot? So, are you feeling the animosity yet Ambassador Hoekstra? And I am a mere Australian, but that makes me a Commonwealthian and one that stands with its Canadian brothers (sisters too). You seemingly forgot that you are merely boasting towards Canadians, but as it stands you are offending Australians (aka Aussies), New Zealanders (aka Kiwi’s) and the United Kingdom (aka Britons) as well. As such you might want to pick up your book ‘101 ways for being clever in diplomacy’ up again, you might have looked into that in your first year in addressing negotiation, international relations, and conflict resolution. Optionally books given to you by UNITAR, but that is mere speculation by me. 

And perhaps you want to point pout where you can do such a thing as the 11 principles that govern NORAD include (as 6th principle) “No permanent change of station for forces under NORAD control can occur without national authority approval.” Or even principle 11 which gives us “The agreement includes provisions for review or renewal (originally set for 10 years).” When exactly is that renewal due? I might be foggy on this part. So exactly who is in charge of NORAD? We are given “The Commander and Deputy Commander will not be from the same country; appointments require approval from both nations.” So when did you discuss this matter with General Gregory Guillot of the United States Air Force? Or perhaps his deputy (which I personally doubt) which is General Iain S. Huddleston of the Royal Canadian Air Force. And perhaps you might want to refresh my mind on where it stands what flying materials each player brings to the NORAD table. As I stated, I might be foggy on that part and in this the media is no help at all.

But I reckon you know all this because you opened your mouth and as such you would have reviewed the materials before speaking. It might be an incorrect view on the matter but don’t several diplomacy books tell the diplomat to any table prepared for what is to come? Sun Tzu (not a diplomat) tells us that victory is secured through meticulous preparation and strategic calculation before a battle begins. And as you entered that field speaking, I gathered that you would have been prepared for that and as such you would have familiarised yourself with the doctrine of NORAD. Was I right?

So you all have a great day and as I stood up for my Canadian brethren (sisters too) I feel great and I am now 150 minutes from breakfast, so I feel good. Especially as I feel the urgent urge for coffee at this time.

Thoughts of a different streak

That is what is bothering me. You see I had a weird ‘daydream’ there could be all kinds of reasons to have this dream, but it struck me as weird at the time. You see I was offered a sweet position in the Starlink program in tech support and I was placed in Abu Dhabi, there were two other tech support locations. Toronto and Sydney these three centers give reasons for 24 hours support and I was added to the Abu Dhabi station (from Sydney). It was a nice dream of having a decently paid job, but that was not the part that was bugging me. In the dream The US Department of War had taken control of Starlink (I have no idea why) and its was supposed to be a short term one. But the issue kept nagging on me. Why would they even need it? And these aren’t facts. It was a dream I had, a day dream no less, no nothing factual.

My brain has seemingly connected the fact “Astronomy Disruption: This leakage disrupts radio telescope observations, specifically in the 10.7 to 12.7 GHz range, making it harder for astronomers to observe the universe” as well as “Starlink satellites are emitting unintended, low-level electromagnetic radiation that interferes with radio astronomy” but my brain (not to most obliging element in this universe) is connecting this to an old intrusion solution I devised. It was the Hop+1 solution I thought through when we saw the news on the Sony Intrusion and we now see “refers to the major 2014 cyberattack on Sony Pictures Entertainment (SPE), where hackers (Guardians of Peace) stole massive amounts of sensitive data, leaked unreleased films, and disrupted operations, linked to North Korea due to the film The Interview. There were also significant breaches involving the PlayStation Network (PSN) in 2011 (77 million accounts) and 2014, and a 2023 incident affecting Sony employees via a MOVEit vulnerability. ” I was of the mindset (as North Korea was pointed at) that they lacked the knowledge to do this. I wrote this piece on September 30th 2017 in ‘The Good, the Bad, and North Korea’ (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2017/09/30/the-good-the-bad-and-north-korea/). The article has a few other points, but my mind started to think that this was most likely an inside job, but in other setting how could it be done and with the Defence department and the NSA in mind, I created HOP+1. I make some mention of it in there. The insides were a little too well working (in my mind) to publish it out there, no need to give hackers any more handles. But then mind might have been mulling over, that if there is leakage and disruption, it might be used in other ways too. It might not have the desired initial effect, but as I see it, these satellites will have been set to a reengineered setting of Cisco solutions. And that would make sense and as such HOP+1 would be back in business.

Is it that simple? I have no idea, but my brain is trying to tell me something that I cannot yet see (or I am blatantly ignoring myself) and in part there is a setting that HOP+1 relied on an inside intrusion (or break-in) at a location that in on the hop path, no bunnies required and the outcome is usually successful as I have seen the laziness of IT people all over the lands (Netherlands, UK, Germany, Sweden, USA and Australia) as such I feel that my HOP+1 would work, but in Starlink, these blighters cannot be reached with a normal staircase, so I have no idea, but I think my mind has worked out what could be done with a program approach in the setting from 10.7 to 12.7 GHz range, but I am fishing here (my brain won’t tell me what it has figured out. Perhaps it is making me go through the motions. 

Well that is it for now, perhaps there will be another sequence on this if I figure out what I had figured out. It is almost midnight (70 minutes from now) so have a great day I will turn the Sahara forests into a desert by snoring all the wood away.

Doubt

There are points where there is doubt, and then there are points where doubt does not come in. I for one have no doubt that President Trump is faking a lot, we see the rhetoric “If we don’t take Greenland, China or Russia will.” I don’t think so, but I have no data that sways me from one side to the other. Russia just got bitch slapped by Ukraine and NATO has no problem to do that to Russia a few times more. China has its own rare metals deposits all over China and as I see it, USA is broke, they need it more than the other players, especially as the oil tycoons don’t see an option in Venezuela. The other side is also about war drums. They will cancel every base America has in Europe. That is nice, but Rammstein is one hell of an investment by its soldiers in Kaiserslautern, when that goes the economy from that town gets a left cross, a right cross and an uppercut, straight into the wallet of that place, but perhaps Germany figured on those losses and will persevere. There are several other bases that gets closed down and I’m all for that, they attacked and they are now putting the fire under Greenland (Denmark too). Al Jazeera gives us less then an hour ago ‘Danish FM says Denmark, US still ‘differ’ over Greenland’ They give us that “US President Donald Trump says in a post on Truth Social that the United States control of Greenland is “vital” for his planned Golden Dome air and missile defence system.” Whilst 16 minutes ago the were given “Now, they’re willing to talk about the possibility of expanding US bases. The US has had a base there for many, many years. They have a base there at the moment, it has about 150 personnel there, but the Danes and the Greenlandic government are willing to discuss expanding the US military presence there. But Donald Trump says that unless it’s under US control, then anything less is unacceptable, and he’d like to see the US move into Greenland sooner than later.” And no one raises how broke the USA actually is, that is the crunch of it all and the is why President Trump needs Greenland, not for any other reason, because if national security was the issue there would have been a base expansion. Its really that simple.

ABC gave us 13 hours ago “He also said he would rather “make a deal” for the territory, but added: “One way or the other, we’re going to have Greenland.”” Which is feeding my ‘USA is broke’ setting, but nothing more than that. CNBC gives us a mere 13 minutes ago ‘Trump, Denmark have ‘fundamental disagreement’ over Greenland but will keep talking, officials say’ this makes it sound desperate, Denmark gave their answer and Trump now comes across as the teenager which is silenced by the girl stating ‘If you shut the fuck up, I’ll have sex with you’. Yes it sounds weirdly desperate and for the reason that he is broke, he needs to take that posture, because the moment he starts mining and not expanding the base and other settings they ‘need’ for national security, my point stands and the global media is shown as utterly useless, especially their economic columns. So I reckon that we can point at these media dodo’s at the next Davos in the desert and ask them whatever they aren’t seeing now, they’ll be getting their daily dose of news with a healthy set of sarcasm wherever they turn. Oh, and I insist on a published list of American Stakeholders, they might have done their jobs, but they get in the USA unemploymancy line, because as I see it, they are through in the EU and Commonwealth. But that is a setting for another day. Another setting Al Jazeera is giving us a mere 14 hours ago was ‘Why Greenland and Europe might have to offer Trump concessions’, I get it, it would settle the pressures that the USA is seeing and that would make Wall Street happy, but that still exposes the President Trump setting with a declines credit card. With “Europe might offer a minerals deal and greater US security presence on Greenland. But will that be enough to satiate Trump?” On one side there is the chance that the shorelines of the American east coast could rise 3-5 meters as there would be an enormous ice melt on Greenland, so happy us, on the other hand, what is left of Greenland would throw its lives in all kinds of hardship and that is not good. And I am a sneaky one, as Al Jazeera is giving us “Copenhagen is tooling up. It has announced $4.2bn in extra defence spending for the Arctic. And it is buying 16 more F-35 fighter jets (from, of course, the US). But even so, Denmark would have little chance against the full might of the US military.” There is every chance that those 16 F-35’s will be cancelled and they might buy the Gripen, or perhaps even the Future Combat Air System (FCAS), I think it is not a good idea to buy from the people that are trying to invade your domain, but that might be just me. 

All this whilst RFI gives us 11 minutes ago ‘Macron warns of ‘cascading consequences’ if US seizes Greenland’ here we see ““France is closely monitoring the situation and will act in full solidarity with Denmark and its sovereignty.” Macron’s comments came after US President Donald Trump said American control of Greenland was “vital” for a planned Golden Dome air and missile defence system.” And as I see it, there is some bad blood here too (something about submarines), so as I see it, almost all of Europe is up in arms about this and there might be some consideration that USA could end up getting thrown out of NATO, President Trump doesn’t care about that anyway (several quotes to that effect were given), which will free up all those bases in Europe as well and as Russia is now a mere shadow from what it was (due to the Ukraine) a different setting might be playing out and as that happens, when Russia and China are ‘discussing’ what to do with the USA, the average American will enter a new stage of being a third world citizen. Several mentions have been seen all over the media, but with the thoughts I saw from the data I have had in my possession for over 13 years, the setting sounds right, but I fear that this is where my opinion is not enough. When the infrastructure collapses, the average would be grateful to be a third world citizen, their lives will be worse than the lives the people had in 1932. By then, one of every four workers was unemployed. Banks failed and life savings were lost, leaving many Americans destitute. With no job and no savings, thousands of Americans lost their homes. This time around one in three will be without income, all pensioners are without money and millions will be without a home. And when these banks collapse they will be confiscated by others and picked dry like a vulture goes after the carcass of the banks. That is what I expect to see, but I will admit that my view is beyond gloomy (and highly speculative), the fun I am getting now is that others are hiding behind their AI systems thinking it is not going to be that bad. So they are using training on data that has not existed before, their AI systems are highly unvalidated and none of the remaining data was verified. So when they figure out what that will entail, others will figure out that you cannot train data on setting we have never seen before and that will crush their AI dreams (which never should have existed). And for the Americans wanting to avoid that, Saudi Aramco is giving us 

“We are looking for experienced professionals in a wide range of fields including engineering, geosciences, drilling, R&D, as well as education, finance, law, and other administrative areas. We generally seek candidates who possess a minimum of five to 10 years of applicable experience. Innovation is highly valued here at Saudi Aramco, and thesis work that furthers the industry’s general knowledge of oil and gas exploration and production is of particular interest. Active participation in relevant professional associations is also looked upon favorably.”

So up to 3500 people can escape the hardship that is coming for them. I reckon that I will try a setting with ADNOC, they also need people and I fear that large parts of the Commonwealth will be equally hit. Larger part of the Commonwealth ‘embraced’ the American setting for too long, these firms will implode and the need for data cleaners and data validators will not be in great demand, they are all dependent on firms based in the USA, and when that goes, 4 out of every jobs in that sector will vanish. Not a good thing. So whilst in doubt I say onto you, never believe one source and verify all you can, because you are about to make hardship decisions and that better come through verified sources, because you will be making too dangerous a decision on anything not verified or validated. 

That is life and that is the life you must avoid. And for those people stating that my words are harsh and stated on the way they are, I say “I get that and you are free to consider any option”, but this is how I see it and the fact that Greenland is still playing out is the reason that there is ‘wiggle room’ and if my setting of ‘USA is broke’ is wrong, so is this entire setting. But there have been economists (read: JP Morgan) who made similar claims and they are better at this then I am and when you take that setting with Venezuela my picture looks a lot more precise that anyone should consider wrong and 23 hours ago we were given ‘Venezuela Oil Revival: Years and Billions Needed’, The USA doesn’t have years and the oil tycoons aren’t willing to invest billions in that direction. It comes with the additional quote “According to TotalEnergies CEO Patrick Pouyanne, significant investment and time are required to restore Venezuela’s oil production capacity. TotalEnergies is a global multi-energy company that produces and markets energies on a global scale.” And that was for starters, so I get that President Trump must have Greenland, their 57,000 citizens sound more appealing than the 92,600 soldiers that Canada can set up that way when it tries to invade Canada, simple calculus and with that he is attracting the armies of the entire Commonwealth, he could win, but the losses for America will be great. And before we get to that, the USA banks will have cracked. No, Greenland is as I see it the only option he has at present. 

But there is doubt in a lot I said in here and there is a fair bit of speculation in all this, there is one thing I am decently certain of (no one is ever 100% correct), the USA is broke and it is about to show. Have a great day.

Price of oil now $15

Yup, saw it myself, a gallon of sunflower oil now $15, as such I wonder why President Trump is panicking? Any grocer has it, so why settle for Venezuelan oil? OK, he has the bankrupt stigma over his head, but that is on the administration. And in that regard the BBC piece (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c205dx61x76o) giving us the headline ‘Trump seeks $100bn for Venezuela oil, but Exxon boss says country ‘uninvestable’’ might not help him much. You know, I would have thought he would have investigated that BEFORE he put the lives of American soldiers in jeopardy. So when we are told “US President Donald Trump has asked for at least $100bn (£75bn) in oil industry spending for Venezuela, but received a lukewarm response at the White House as one executive warned the South American country was currently “uninvestable”.

Bosses of the biggest US oil firms who attended the meeting acknowledged that Venezuela, sitting on vast energy reserves, represented an enticing opportunity.” As such what did Chevron had to say? They were the one that were their in the first place. As such I reckon that the peaceful webcam of Nuuk might not be so peaceful for much longer. In that regard, was there really just one executive stating the uninvestable ploy? And one response was “Exxon’s chief executive Darren Woods said: “We have had our assets seized there twice and so you can imagine to re-enter a third time would require some pretty significant changes from what we’ve historically seen and what is currently the state.”” In all this I am a little surprised. I would have had that meeting beforehand. It kinda makes me wonder of the belle at the ball meeting a well hung man stating ‘What am I supposed to do with that?’ That is one of those moments when ‘hoping for the best’ will come across as having a cold shower as the first dish of the ‘entertainment of the evening’ it might come across as a little cold, but that is what it looks like. Everything over the last 2 weeks looks like an exercise of how not to do things in any corporate setting. Especially when you start eyeing 300 billion barrels. In my mind the first question I had was why didn’t Venezuela set that in motion? And for that matter where were these tankers going to? What solutions do they have to process that much oil? Those are the first questions I had two weeks ago, as such that oil meeting was like a marketing cold call. And there is a setting for off shore processing in this case even if America will buy the oil, it is a simple setting to adding a taximeter to that processing plant. As such this entire setting is one of bad preparation. It’s like the man expecting a smooth ride at a brothel asking the question ‘What exactly is herpes?’ Which gets us the comical setting that the lady of the house asks ‘You don’t have herpes, do you? I don’t want to get that again’ You might smile but the reactions that President Trump is invoking with reaction views that the Venezuelan oil industry is looking like a dud more and more at present. 

Then there is the setting that ABC is leaving us with ‘Donald Trump says oil executives will have ‘total safety’ if they invest in Venezuela’ Can they really? As far as I can tell, these places tend to react flammable to any RPG thrown their way and President Maduro has a large following that are still roaming the streets of Caracas. As such ill-prepared and reacting in the stage of ‘total safety’ whilst that would require over 100,000 boots on the ground in Caracas and that is likely to set a different tone to that equation. So as America is heading towards at least two fronts (Greenland and Venezuela), I wonder if he read the papers on Napoleon making the very same mistake in 1814. He should look at the works of Ridley Scott, especially his movie Napoleon (2023), he might learn something. I know it is much better to read ‘1812: Napoleon’s Fatal March on Moscow’ by Adam Zamoyski, but that might be seemingly too dry for him. 

These are a few insights one might need to reassess the insights that President Trump had last week as he was going to ‘fix oil infrastructure’, it seems that this meeting with the oil executives was one he needed to have before he made the claim to ‘fix oil infrastructure’. You know little things like that might fix his viewpoint in a more correct way beforehand. And I feel stupid for having to say this, but, no wait, I don’t have to the American Administration had to do this BEFORE they went in and stated that they were going against drugmakers. So how many drug houses were captured (call it freed) from Venezuela? And the ‘word’ is “Venezuela remains a major transit country for cocaine shipments via aerial, terrestrial, and maritime routes.” You see, in 1974 I learned (at the merchant navy academy) that transit means “conveyance of persons or things from one place to another. usually local transportation especially of people by public conveyance. a system engaged in such transportation.” So for the kiddies in the American administration, it means that merchant A ships goods B through Location C to Customers in location D. As such Venezuela is Location C, so the drugs are optimally only found in some ware house. So how many warehouses were captured with drugs? I failed to see that news. And when we get to the nasty setting that it was always about the oil. And as such that meeting the BBC raves on about should have been had at least 4 weeks ago and in all this the one who was there before (Chevron) is seemingly overlooked by all. What were their observation of Venezuelan oil processing? Little things like that. So are we getting the same failed narrative for Greenland and if it was about national security, what discussion were held over placing a base and a port in Greenland (or enlarge the port of Nuuk for Navy ships and perhaps a airfield for refueling options. So what ‘enlargements’ were planned for Pituffik Space Base? All questions that national security would have in the initial first instance and I see no reporting on that. But I reckon the news would have linked these settings like media coverage (e.g., Defense News), and internal DoD reports, all detailing military posture, strategy, budget, and operations, with the Secretary of Defense reporting to the President and Congress, and various agencies like the DIA and services providing intelligence and status updates. Perhaps the DoD was not entirely forthcoming on that, but they needed to have all the paperwork ready for this and I never saw anything on that. As such I get the feeling that Greenland is a simple resource grab to enlarge their credit portfolio. Nothing more and I reckon the this will anger Denmark, the EU, NATO and optionally Canada too. Most likely not in the order, but these elements are involved. All settings that the media would have been able to ask instead of getting the usual quotes (like) “Canada should become our Cherished 51st State” or my favourite, President Trump apparently said these words a week ago: “One Day, I Realized Nobody Was Coming to Save Me—So I Saved Myself” and it will become my favourite as he utters those words in the International Criminal Court in The Hague when he faces them, because there is 0% chance he will avoid that setting after the coming 1105 days. Whomever takes over the office will have such a mess to clean that they will hand him over in an instant act to relieve some of the pressures that successor faces on the global markets. In 1105 days he either find the correct amount to increase the Credit Card of the United States or Wall Street hands him over to anyone asking for him. This is of course massively speculative, but do you think I am wrong? The numbers don’t lie (they actually do, it is the interpretation that tends to be finicky) “Trump’s term low is 41% approval, which he first reached on Nov. 12. His disapproval also notched up to 56% on Nov. 19, a high for this term per the aggregator. As of Jan. 9, 2026, 43% approve and 55% disapprove, per the Times.” (Source: USA Today) As I see it, Wall Street will giftware him and Warren Buffet is likely to make the bow for the wrapping himself. And in all this he has ignored international law, just like Napoleon did and they gave him a hotel on Elba to relax. I don’t think President Trump is going to get that lucky. Too many are after him now and that list is getting more impressive by the day Venezuela, Greenland, Canada, Netherlands, Belgium (EU HQ, NATO HQ), Germany and a few more. To my knowledge Adolf Hitler was the last person to get this much personal attention of governments, not even Stalin pulled the one off. It might not be academic but it feels correct. 

Does it feel over emotional? No, I have merely attaching optionally non-related issues, because the Trump administration is making knee jerk corrections on something that should have been thought through BEFORE we had to watch the arrant pr President Maduro. Don’t get me wrong, as the details go he was seemingly a bad man, I have no doubt. But at what stage did that warrant America to go in and arrest him on the spot with a fleet of ships? When did America send the army into Iran and arrest Ali Khamenei, Supreme leader of Iran. Or perhaps Gustavo Francisco Petro Urrego, President of Columbia where the drugs seemingly come from. Where is that media snippet of reality? No, Venezuela was about oil and now it seems that it is seemingly as useful as horsepiss. (Quote from King Kong 1976, where the Petrox Corporation went in for oil too). As such it didn’t turn out that way and this example makes me wonder why the Trump Administration wasn’t ready for this. As such my idea for off shore processing and getting all oil tankers to go to an (optional) American location to process that oil might have been a better solution. I have no expertise in the Petrochemical industry, so I am going on a limb here, but to not explore that option on day one seems folly to me. So what shortcomings will we see when Greenland is up for ‘auction’?

Just my 2 cents of the matter and now it is time for brekkie, Have a great day all.

The view of a psychopath

That is in question and it is not on Trump or anyone else. It is the view of me. So as I ‘hide’ behind the numbers that the world shows, Am I the Psychopath? A case could be made that I might be a Psychotic sociopath or even a social Psychopath. All optional settings, but I need to investigate me, because the person who accuses all others from being nuts is mandatory required to investigate themself in that same process. We can go (at times) with everyone is nuts except me, but if you do not cross the t and dot the i you get an unbalanced equation and that equation is important in that setting and as such I investigate myself. 

In the past I have fervently given the setting that America is broke but the weird setting that no one else is saying that. OK, I found one voice, the voice of David Kelly (at JP Morgan) but is that enough? And the setting that the New York Times is giving us (at https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/08/us/politics/trump-interview-power-morality.html) is a nice handle to use. We are given ‘Trump Lays Out a Vision of Power Restrained Only by ‘My Own Morality’’ where we see “President Trump declared on Wednesday evening that his power as commander in chief is constrained only by his “own morality,” brushing aside international law and other checks on his ability to use military might to strike, invade or coerce nations around the world.” Oh, we are given “use military might to strike, invade or coerce nations” and I am considering here that I am the psychopath? And for that matter, what president, king, or emperor is willing to forego international law? In what universe is that acceptable? I get that we get all the Saudi Arabia mentions, but Saudi Arabia is a monarchy and last I checked they are massively driven by Islam, and the Quran is their manifesto. It is a basic setting of morality, the morality of the Quran and I accept that. But for a western leader to say that he is forgoing international law is a stretch too far. So when the New York Times gives us “When asked what was his higher priority, obtaining Greenland or preserving NATO, Mr. Trump declined to answer directly, but acknowledged “it may be a choice.” He made clear that the trans-Atlantic alliance was essentially useless without the United States at its core.” We see an additional element of the setting that America is broke. It is willing to forgo NATO, even start a war with NATO all to get Greenland? Then we are given ‘Trump Considers Payments to Persuade Greenland Residents’ (source: Business Korea, Reuters has a paywall). As such as Greenland has 57,000 people, even at $1,000,000 each it would still be a bargain. But the American stinginess will come cropping up at some point. These are all actions of a broke nation. All in a setting where Wall Street is willing to remain silent so that they can remain in the party. That is at stake and no one seems to be realising this. And insight that I saw this moment come towards us 12 years ago, the fact that ‘at present’ it is arriving slowly is also important. It is important as the infrastructure will have been left to rot for years and that is before this generation get to collect their retirement and in 2030 the get the ‘last payment’ paper. Some will be only 60 years old. They will go through the rest of life owning nothing at all. That is coming and when others are in denial, I can wait. I will recall this message in 2035 and show the world how useless the economic media has been, they will not be allowed to say ‘it was for the good of Wall Street’ it will be the final straw of treason they face.  

So as I am investigating my psychotic setting, I feel that I have passed. As a psychopath I fail because I recognise the need for international law and as a sociopath I understand that other nations (like Saudi Arabia) have values etched in religion, not even my religion and I get that. So I fail twice over. But the New York Times gives us another person with the psyche that must be examined. So draw your own conclusions. And whilst your at it, why Is Canada, Venezuela and Greenland important? Anyone who has hit the limit of their credit card knows. You either have collateral that increases your value, or you find a stash of gold. The stash is found in Venezuela where they have the largest oil reserve in the world. It is not particularly useful, because that oil needs to be gotten and it is different from most oils. It has properties that makes it debatable, but the Guardian reports less than a day ago ‘Trump plans to use Venezuela’s huge crude reserves ‘to cut US oil price to $50 a barrel’’, do you actually think this will happen, or will he sell on and pocket that $10 per barrel for 30 billion barrels giving him the 300 billion to ease interest payments? And that is a simple setting, he might be in there years to vulture Venezuela as carrion eater for all the oil they can get. And that will take time and he is running out of time, so here comes Greenland with all its rare minerals and that gives America the leeway to let it run its creed and a little longer. But in the last setting he want Canada too, all this nations, not because of National Security, but because its credit card is running on empty and Canada is not budging and I for one am willing to aid Canada in its protection (the protection of Greenland too as the Queen of Denmark is originally Australian). So am I the psychopath of does that title fit another person better?

And in all this the economic editors of global news are now in the dock too, because I don’t have an economic degree and they do, so they should have seen this coming a mile away. ‘So whilst we are given ““Ownership is very important,” Mr. Trump said as he discussed, with a real estate mogul’s eye, the landmass of Greenland — three times the size of Texas but with a population of less than 60,000. He seemed to dismiss the value of having Greenland under the control of a close NATO ally. When asked why he needed to possess the territory, he said: “Because that’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success. I think that ownership gives you a thing that you can’t do, whether you’re talking about a lease or a treaty. Ownership gives you things and elements that you can’t get from just signing a document.” The conversation made clear that in Mr. Trump’s view, sovereignty and national borders are less important than the singular role the United States plays as the protector of the West.” He actually ‘hid’ behind “protector of the West” the folly of men behind tariffs, behind the setting of the 51st state mentions, that is the protector of the west? Begging for a Nobel peace price attacked Venezuela in seemingly contraction of International law. I know I am not the most versed person in international law, but I see a few hitches showing up just like that. And now he is ready to go to war with NATO if other means do not work out for him. So how is that sane on any level? Oh and for that matter, where are the United Nations in all this?

As we consider all kinds of options, I also recognise that I am the only one seeing what others cannot see, in the end I am an actual psychopath and I recognize the other psychopath in the game. Perhaps that is a truth, but as I recognized international law and President trump was said to have given the New York Times “his power as commander in chief is constrained only by his “own morality,” brushing aside international law and other checks on his ability to use military might”, so I might be okay, and there was the recognition of the Quran as a guiding principle for some nations. I fear that I failed the psychopath and sociopath test. Too my credit, I also failed the doctor test, I will apparently never be a doctor, so there is that.

Have a great day you all, I feel like the wicked witch of the west. It is 41 degrees in my room and I’m melting.

The accused speaks

Well, I have had an interesting day (so far), I have been accused of being anti-American and a whole range of other things (some of it on lacking evidence), so here goes.

First of all, I am not anti-American, I am heavily pro-Canadian, so there. Then there is the ‘alarmist’ accusation. That is fair, but it comes with certain evidence. In the first I gave you the source the Texas Standard where Matt Smith, lead energy analyst at Kpler gives us “So if we just consider U.S. production and Latin American production in Venezuela specifically, U.S. shale is light sweet crude. It is very high quality. Venezuelan crude is low quality, heavy sour crude. And U.S. gulf coast refineries have been geared towards running this Venezuelan heavy sour crude, Mexican heavy sour crude as well.” As such the few who can process this crude is Chevron for one (they were originally in Venezuela) and then we get Fortune telling us ‘President Trump stands ready to send U.S. Big Oil into Venezuela en masse, but the messy reality of rebuilding a ruined industry takes many years’ with the added “President Donald Trump says American Big Oil “want to go in so badly” into Venezuela and spend billions of dollars, but the reality is U.S. oil producers are hesitant, and it will take many years and many tens of billions of dollars to rebuild Venezuela’s decimated oil sector after the U.S forcibly removed and arrested leader Nicolás Maduro during a string of attacks on Jan. 3.” But as I see it, President Trump only has 1108 days left, so there will not be enough time, apart from Chevron optionally making a massive windfall (they were there first and they would know how to process the crude oil Venezuela has), so how is this an American setting? Because President Trump told us so. 

Then we get about America being broke. There is way too much evidence all around us. The issue is that you have to connect the dots yourself because the media does nothing that hurts their golden eggs. Now some claim I am making the wrong assumptions. That is fair, because I too can fail. And if you are relying on your whatever AI you use, you will fail, because I tend to work in multidimensional viewpoints and there is (as far as I know no AI that can do that), the programmer didn’t program it and as such it fails. One person even accused me of being a “a passionate, alarmist synthesis of 2026 events. It resonates in fringe discussions but lacks rigorous sourcing or nuance.” Really? That might be the case, but the media is actually no help at all and the setting of debt is clearly shown in numerous sources and so is the $1.2 trillion dollar interest bill. So what happens when 24% of the annual budget is taken all whilst America was unable to keep a budget for over 10 years? And now you have two make due with 24% less? That was before President Trump made trade-wars with Canada (aka Tariffs) and the rest of the world. As such Tourism was highly impacted and we are not getting the real numbers, especially when we see the claims of up around $6-$12 billion, all whilst some give us estimates of the total potential shortfall as high as $29 billion. And that was before some other elements are considered I came to up to $80 billion in the widest setting (like air B&B, temporary jobs for students and several other factors) where I saw as California and Florida being the hardest hit and in addition the Canadian winter geese who are at present shunning Florida. All elements that will be added burdens to the lack of revenue for America. And with these facts I came to the speculative conclusion that the Democrats are in on this. Because as I see it, the political field is all about blaming the other side, but now, the democrats remain silent, especially where Greenland is concerned. Why is that?

As it stands Marjorie Taylor Green has been more outspoken against President Trump than Hakeem Jeffries has been, How does that make sense? And I am willing to put that not on them but on the media and what they are not telling us. So what else is going on? Oh yes, I was ‘accused’ to “openness to partnering with China against U.S. “greed,” framing it as a “warlike Commonwealth” response.” What I actually said was “America needs to learn what a warlike Commonwealth can bring to the table. I still think that a partnership with China is preferred, but I get that this is politically a hammer to heavy to wield.” I countered the language of a bully with the response to a bully. Something that an AI is unlikely to decipher. And as Canada is optionally attacked as the 51st State, I find it acceptable to color the Commonwealth in an aggressive response. As I see it, the last time Australians were blood red eyed aggressive was in Gallipoli in 1915, so we (Australians) are due for another exercise, and an exercise to protect Canada is definitely a worthy one. 

So it is fair to see me emotional, but the emotions that president Trump gave is all are massively aggravating. So I feel justified in my emotions. 

So in other news there are the Horizon games (yes I am changing subject). The third Horizon game is seemingly planned for 2027-2028. And might be a launch title for the PS6. Which is claimed, I have no idea when that thing comes to market. But I was thinking as it would be fair to see the PS6 with a 4KHD drive, there might be a case to launch the game with all three games upgraded for PS6. Disc one would be Zero Dawn/Frozen Wilds  and Forbidden West/Burning Shores and disc 2 would hold the third game. As Zero Dawn was released in 2017 it would be a 10th anniversary release. A game that almost every Sony gamer would want and to play them all (likely after the third game) would be one hell of a journey. I reckon that many non Sony gamers will buy the PS6 merely for that option. Just an idea I was having. I am currently replaying Forbidden West and I am still in awe of the entire journey this game offers. As I see it, it might be the best game in the history of gaming and that is saying something. 

And come to think of it, the world of Zero Dawn and Forbidden West might be preferable to the one we face her at present. Just some food for thought.

Have a great day everyone.

Edge of the coin

That is as I realise the setting we are in. And I get it, I sound silly, but I was unaware of the scope of the setting (I will easily blame my lack of an economic education) but three parts came to my mind opening my eyes. The first part is seen on the BBC (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwyg1jg8xkmo) two hours ago ‘US discussing options to acquire Greenland, including use of military, says White House’ all whilst my previous article is 14 hours old. As such America is ready to go to war with NATO itself. And here we are given “US President Donald Trump has been discussing “a range of options” to acquire Greenland, including use of the military, the White House said. The White House told the BBC that acquiring Greenland – a semi-autonomous region of fellow Nato member Denmark – was a “national security priority”.” Which is as I see it a blatant lie, but I wrote about that 14 hours ago. The second part came from Houston (Texas) where (at https://www.texasstandard.org/stories/venezuela-oil-future-texas-development-trump-maduro/) we are given ‘From Caracas to Houston: How Venezuela’s oil future could affect Texas’ the direct takeaway is “President Trump is talking about rebuilding the oil infrastructure there. If you’re in the oil biz in Houston or Irving right now, what do you think this means for the Texas oil industry? Are we looking at the possibility that U.S. companies could rush down into Venezuela as a result of what happened this weekend?

Well, no, so it’s a crude quality thing, right? So if we just consider U.S. production and Latin American production in Venezuela specifically, U.S. shale is light sweet crude. It is very high quality. Venezuelan crude is low quality, heavy sour crude. And U.S. gulf coast refineries have been geared towards running this Venezuelan heavy sour crude, Mexican heavy sour crude as well.

And so it’s not going to impact U.S. production per se because it’s not going to be displacing that crude. The way, if you’re cynical, you can look at this is that the U. S. needs this Venezuelan crude and so that’s what’s driving President Trump’s efforts here.”

You might think that this is ludicrous and to some extent it is, but there is another side. Actually two sides, but I will talk about this in a moment. The thirst side is given to us by the Guardian (at https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jan/06/the-guardian-view-on-trumps-capture-in-caracas-oil-matters-but-its-not-the-whole-story) where we see ‘The Guardian view on Trump’s raid in Caracas: oil matters, but it’s not the whole story’ where we see “US sanctions worsened Venezuela’s slump, but lifting them alone will not restore growth: the industrial base has been hollowed out and skilled labour gone. If US oil majors take a larger share of revenues, Caracas will be more cash-strapped than before. It is hard not to recall Iraq – not because Venezuela is Iraq, but because of how the decision was made. No single rationale was decisive about Caracas. Oil, drugs, ideological fixation and presidential ego all featured. Each was not enough on its own; together they saw Mr Trump make a high‑risk move with no clear endgame.” It didn’t hit me at first, but this kept nagging into the back off my brain. There were two parts that were missing (one actually). You see, we were given “Trump told NBC on Jan. 5 that it could take less than 18 months to revive Venezuelan oil production, with the U.S. potentially reimbursing American oil companies for their investment. “A tremendous amount of money will have to be spent, and the oil companies will spend it, and then they’ll get reimbursed by us, or through revenue,” Trump said. In his Jan. 6 announcement Trump said Venezuelan oil “will be taken by storage ships, and brought directly to unloading docks in the United States.” Energy Secretary Chris Wright is coordinating the effort, Trump added. Wright is meeting with oil executives in Miami this week.” You would like to see that this is more Trump BS but you would be wrong, the timeline does’t match. You see President Trump has almost exactly 1109 days left. Now consider that Chevron or anyone else picks up the baton, there is not enough time to make a decent profit and on the other had, the rather nasty side effect of oil is that a spark sets it off and President Maduro has plenty of allies in Venezuela. So either a massive army comes to Venezuela or there is another setting in place. That’s when it hit me, actually the Greenland setting left me with this. America is ready to go to war with NATO? At present NO DEMOCRAT is speaking up and Hakeem Jeffries leader of the Democrat party has been uncannily silent on these matters. I dawned on me that America elected an idiotic baboon as president because THEY ALL KNOW the party is about to end. They all know the debt they are in is about to spiral out of control and they need Venezuelan oil, Greenland natural wealth and Canadian resources to keep afloat (Canada might almost be out of danger) but America needs Venezuela and Greenland and that is thinly part to keep them afloat. Did Democrats actually think they could go in denial after the fact? 

They all knew and no one reacted, that is your America of today, they are no longer an ally, they have become a clear and present danger of Europe, the EU and the Commonwealth. Because after Greenland how much trust does an American hold? None at all.

I have to be crazy not having seen this before, we got swept up in the media cycles (they are now also an active part towards the enemies destination) there is no way all these Economic boffins didn’t see this happen. I might have an excuse as I have no economic degree, but they do not. And that needs to come out into the light. The global news is so whoring for Digital Dollars, they will side with the wind in whatever direction it goes. That was part 3 and part 4 of this. As I see it a whole America is part of this and I mightn’t have seen it before, but I am on the page now. So as I see it Europe and the Commonwealth have only one course of action. Immediately ban all American goods, ban all American travel, and ban all American services. It is now that simple and when we suddenly now get Democratic voices complain, they are too late. They had the option to voice concerns over three weeks but we got nothing. So as I see it, the Commonwealth needs to stand side by side with Canada as it is the third target of America and we need to do this now. There is no tomorrow. America needs to learn what a warlike Commonwealth can bring to the table. I still think that a partnership with China is preferred, but I get that this is politically a hammer to heavy to wield. So this is the edge of the coin, not Ione side, not the other, but in balance with too many elements. 

So even I get insights into missed corners of data and there will be plenty of people saying I am wrong (as I usually hear) but look at the evidence, the media gave you all the evidence you needed. Have a great day, unless you are American then you can have a terrible day as far as I care.

The rage is real

I saw a message on BBC (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g0zg974v1o) which made me a lot angrier than I am willing to admit to. A mere 8 hours ago we were told ‘‘We need Greenland’: Trump repeats threat to annex Danish territory’ and I get to the rage in a moment. But the media (the pussies they seemingly are) are merely ‘reporting’ on this. We are being told that “the US president said “we need Greenland from the standpoint of national security”.” We are also given “Trump has repeatedly raised the prospect of the semi-autonomous Danish territory becoming an annexed part of the US, citing its strategic location for defence purposes and mineral wealth.” It is the ‘mineral wealth’ that America needs and Wall Street can see the end of their markers, so they are keeping more quiet than a church mouse during service. We see that the Orange Bully Baboon of the Usurping States of Avarice is making his case, but the truth of the matter is, that truth that the reporters are never digging into is that America has a debt of 38 trillion (aka $38,000,000,000,000, I hope I got that part right) as such EVERY YEAR needs to come up with $1.5 trillion dollars (aka $1,500,000,000,000) in interest. That is before the pay off of the debt starts. That is plain ‘profit’ for the banks. So, remind me, what do you do to your child when he spends 90% of his annual allowance on day 1?
It doesn’t end well and now Europe and the Commonwealth have a nasty job, because America is not doing anything.

As I see it, the best setting is to impose isolationism on America. We have better travel destinations (Europe, UAE, Japan) we can impose more tariffs (the Orange Baboon apparently loves those) and we can stop buying all goods ‘made in America’, ask the Canadians how to do that. And we need to do this now, before that idiotic White House comes after Canada again. They think they got away with Venezuela and it is not over yet. As such the need for cash increases in America, as such they are now going after Danish territory. They are running out of time. And my thought are that Europe and the Commonwealth knock on the doors to China trying to make a better solution. When American goods are rejected, places like Huawei will readily open the doors. And don’t come to me with OpenAI and AI is the future. AI doesn’t exist yet and at present OpenAI is losing to Google, so there is that. 

Soon these larger players will have to chose between America and the rest of the world, the simplicity of 340,000,000 consumers versus 7,860,000,000 consumers. I reckon that these players will readily move their HQ to a European or Commonwealth location. And whilst the isolation begins America is now forced to go on an all out war or dwindle into irrelevancy.

That is not a bet I want to make, as such the Commonwealth and the EU need to arrange a setting through BRICS or directly with China to make this happen.

And for those who think I am overreacting, consider that President Trump said “Trump has claimed that making it part of the United States would serve American security interests due to its strategic location and its abundance of minerals critical to high-tech sectors.” And as the King of Denmark married an Australian, Australia is (as I personally see it) ready to go to war in defense of Denmark. And as that setting evolves, the Commonwealth will realise that they are not safe until America is dealt with. And I have no sympathy for America at present. I predicted this evolution in 2013. I will admit that I did not see America stealing its revenue, but that is merely on my own limited creativity. 

The setting is almost too clear, get rid of America or drown in their lack of spending control. I don’t think it is much of an equation to look at and in that second degree the EU and Commonwealth needs to start banning the American media as well. See how that goes when the advertisement money start falling short. I reckon that this might be the most effective of all bans. When the media can no longer get the digital dollars from outside of America, they will have to turn on America and that at present is not a good setting to be in. So whilst some laugh at Kate Miller and her map of Greenland doused in the American flag, some will see the danger of this and I reckon that several parties are already in contact with Beijing at present (phone: +86 10 8562 2709)

So how is that a solution? Well as I see it, there is only China now to stop America and the world needs a safe space and China might solve that problem and this is only needed for about two years. Then Wall Street and the American economy dissolves into nothing and America becomes a place for money vultures. I reckon that places like the Smithsonian will auction off what they have to get by the first year, but after that the new interest invoice is due and there won’t be anything left.  This reminds me of a story about a salesperson wanting to avoid hell, so he promised the devil an annual increase of 100% souls of his monthly quota of 100 souls and the devil agreed. So the salesperson feels happy and he is returning to his old life, but that is where the other side of the coin comes into play. In year two he is due 2400 souls, year three 4800 souls and it goes on, but the devil is a decently patient soul, because the sales person would have to surrender 5 billion souls in 24 years, more than the population of the earth at that point. The moral of the story? Don’t ever make a deal with the devil. There is no way to win.

And as I see it, the banks work in the same way, hence the problem that Wall Street shows itself to be. So what deal was there to be had in that field? Nobody was looking there were they? So the rage is real, I cannot get a decent deal in my life and the bullies get it all, so I wonder what we were doing in the first place. Have a decent day today.

The direction doesn’t matter

That is a weird stage to set things on, but for me in Australia, I am looking to events in the NW (actually WNW to North), Canada looks at it as events in the East (actually ESE) and Europe sees it as events to the South (actually SE), we look at things from a different perspective and in this the ABC (at https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12-31/uae-saudi-arabia-yemen-strikes-port-weapons-shipment/106188568) we get ‘UAE withdraws personnel from Yemen after Saudi Arabia air strikes’ and the headline matters, but this is not the most important part. You see, I partially take offense to “The United Arab Emirates is pulling its personnel out of Yemen after Saudi Arabia’s bombing of an alleged shipment of weapons and vehicles it claimed had been going to a separatist group. The UAE Ministry of Defence said it would withdraw its remaining “counter-terrorism teams” from southern Yemen after Saudi Arabia issued a 24-hour deadline to the Emirates to leave and cease sending weapons and money to any group in the country.” This follows the issue I have with “Both Saudi Arabia and the Emirates intervened in Yemen’s civil war in 2015, as the major players in a coalition fighting the Iran-backed Houthi rebels in the north.” The ABC is wrong here, these aren’t Houthi rebels, they are Houthi Terrorists and they better realise their wrongful setting of the euphemism brush that they use in cases of Yemen events. As I see it,“A terrorist is an individual who uses or threatens violence against non-combatants (such as civilians) to create widespread fear and thereby achieve political, religious, or ideological goals.” And in all this Iran is equally guilty for enabling these terrorist events by delivering hardware and knowledge to the Houthi terrorists. We merely get “On 9 October 2021, Houthi forces launched two suicide drones on King Abdullah Airport in Jizan, Saudi Arabia. The attack left 10 wounded; six Saudi nationals, three Bangladeshi and one Sudanese as well as and minor damage to civilian property.” Yet, if the media took the trouble to question Colonel Turki bin Saleh al-Maliki of the Royal Saudi Air Force, they would get a number a lot higher and more recent of the attacks these terrorists made on Saudi Arabian soil, even though Yemeni hardware could never enabled these actions, neither was it possible to see the attacks on 14 September 2019, where drones were used to attack oil processing facilities. Houthi forces never had the knowhow and precision to follow through in that, making Iran the most likely culprit (I use culprit loosely as I never saw the evidence) and the western media is massively shy the reports on this, because that would enable Saudi Arabia to get the backing from the global population and that is a second setting the world was not ready for. It is all nice if one party is show to be the bad apple, but when too much evidence is showing to be incorrect, the people will ask questions and the media set themselves up for that stage. And there are developing stages here. As ABC gives us “But Dr Kendall said the Saudis and Emiratis supported different factions in southern Yemen, with Saudi Arabia preferring a united Yemen and the Emiratis supporting the separatist STC, which wants to create a new state in the south. That rivalry has intensified, especially after the UAE expanded its influence and military presence across southern Yemen and its islands, while Saudi Arabia responded by bombing the STC in Yemen’s eastern provinces last week. “Clashes have erupted in the past, most notably in 2019, but now is the most serious clash yet. This is a very serious disagreement about how, when and if the south should break away,” Dr Kendall said.” It shows that my knowledge is lacking involving Yemeni events and I blame the media for not keeping us up to date and that is the function of the media. ABC has been properly advising its readers (listeners and watchers too) of these events, but they likely have limiting resources. And as I see it, ABC stands mostly alone, whilst American, British and European news agencies let that chapter slide as (as I personally see it) Yemen isn’t sexy enough for the news. But that also implies that too many hand the bad card to Saudi Arabia whilst that is not the proper thing. As I see it, Iran is a lot more guilty of these bad cards than Saudi Arabia would have ever been entitled to.

We are also given ““The UAE categorically rejects any attempt to implicate the country in tensions among Yemeni parties and strongly denounces allegations that it exerted pressure on, or issued directives to, any Yemeni party to undertake military operations that would undermine the security of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia or target its borders,” the Emirati government said in a statement.” I cannot counter that because the media never gave us the real deal, but I am willing to color both nations in happy green, whilst keeping Iran in evil red (as colours go in my view of things) and that makes coloring the borders a problem, because I have seen close (thought Arabian news sources) to half a dozen attacks on Saudi civilian targets, making the Houthi terrorist the guilty party. So why is the ABC labeling them ‘Houthi rebels’? 

It is a setting that due to one sided and limited exposure a setting of question and whilst we might see the UAE and Saudi Arabia as the noble sides, there is more going on in Yemen and that could give us a setting of doubt and we are able and willing to be in doubt, because as I see it, most of the media isn’t doing their job (as I personally see it).

All whilst ABC gave us this image which is striking. There is a whole range of elements in action, some in the hearts of the Yemeni and the media just won’t give us the real deal. Why is that?

Have a great day and today is the last day of the year here, tomorrow will be another year.

The nightmare of some

I have been ‘playing’ the same routine, whenever I got an idea, I put it on my blog and I am fine with that, because I have four scripts and three need completion, but today I had a brainwave that made me change this. I had an idea and I will keep that under wraps. A thriller/horror story that is not set in myth or supernatural settings, but a horror of governmental making. The idea I had would give nightmares to those in charge of the NSA and GCHQ and it particular for these two people. I don’t think that anyone (outside of the porn realm) made a movie with one person in mind, but I am not one to follow normal patterns. As such when these two don’t sleep, I reckon that sleep can be a foregone imagination with the FBI, CIA, MI5, MI6 and a few other agencies. I reckon that both their counterpart in the FSB and China might get squeamish too, but that is not my concern.

A setting that is not set in anarchy, but in strict settings that enables splinter cells in any government and that is the idea of the script that went in front of my eyes. It started with an idea of renewing IP and then it hit me. Why do that when the reality might be much more frightening. And as such I made the idea a little more real. But before I start the Idea, I will have to brush up on Lowenthal’s from secrets to policy. It might give me a few more ideas on getting Lieutenant General William J. Hartman I little more sleep deprived as well as his counterpart Anne Keast-Butler. I think I need a hobby but that is for later. At this point I have a new doctrine. Setting the stage of reality to new heights and no BS AI in this, such a system can be programmed into irrelevancy. No, this is hardcore low tech by enabling of anarchy through order. That is the premise, because as I thought (some time ago) on downing Microsoft (by executing 280,000 employees), we can forgo the violence and let the chips fall where they may and it occurred to me that 32,000 employees cannot control 348,000,000 Americans and in case of the UK it is 7,200 employees and the population is 69,500,000. These are out of control settings that are merely imaginary, so when people start yanking that equation around, the storm drains get flooded really fast and from there infrastructure goes the way of the Dodo (massively fast), so I need to do some homework and set this to a new premise. I hope that it takes a little over 3 months, so these two individuals better catch up on sleep. The summer of 2026 might be a real sleep depriver for some.

Well, that is it for me and I had not expected to get such a brainwave, so silly me for not expecting the unexpected. As such, IP was over rated, although a film script is also IP, so I stayed true to my vocation. Have a great day, I might forego a little sleep today.
