The undecided ones

That is what I see. And there is a real danger here and we will see the end come because some people cannot make decisions. They are too scared to be seen ‘in a bad light’ but the their inactions have more dire consequences than they are willing to admit to, because they are in a setting “we can talk with them”, “we could find a mutual solution” but the direct setting is that they do not want to talk. The want to lead at the expense of everyone and everything. I am of course talking about Iran and now their terrorist branches Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthi. The indecisive actions by the United States is making its mark, because Iran sees the weakness in the United States. The bully president talks and talks, but the weary part of all this is seen, the United States is broke beyond belief and they can no longer boast what they want, well they could, but it is now reaching more and more deaf ears. So whilst we get “Good morning. Donald Trump has used the platform of the UN general assembly in New York to threaten to “annihilate the Islamic republic” of Iran, “and do it quickly”. He called on countries to unite to isolate Tehran and bring down global energy prices.” So how are they doing that exactly? You see, they started their clambake 207 days ago (which amounts to 29 weeks and 4 days) and they weren’t able to stop Iran and others (like the Houthis) are seeing this as a weakness. All that, whilst I gave a much better setting in the last 29 weeks that is better, more complete and it hinders the Iranians to a much larger effect and my ‘plan’ didn’t cost and whilst AP News gave us that this is costing the USA $43.6 billion, my ‘plan’ did it at a fraction of the cost and a lot more complete. This is not a brag, I placed the idea in my blog and I gave it free of charge to the UAE and Saudi Arabia, because when these places are under attack, you are not asking for money (it would still be nice though) but these inventions are untested and they get it for free and can decide how to implement it. I had France WW2 as an example. As such it might merely be a partial innovation (aka iteration) on this. And I am not undecided, I decided to hand Saudi Arabia (the UAE too) whatever I had to counter Iran and its three terrorist organisation and perhaps my way will not work. More able engineers than me can decide on that. I am not undecided. So in the meantime we see the CSIS give us ‘Is the United States Abandoning Saudi Arabia at Its Moment of Need?’ Where we see “By 2022, Saudi Arabia and the Houthis had negotiated a ceasefire. It held imperfectly until July 2026, when Saudi Arabia was attacked again—this time most definitely by the Houthis. The attacks plunged Saudi Arabia into a conflict it had hoped to avoid.

Houthi missiles, mostly intercepted, began targeting Saudi Arabia on July 13. The Houthis announced a naval blockade on July 22 and began targeting oil tankers carrying Saudi crude in the Red Sea. They then began attacking Saudi energy infrastructure, culminating in a strike on an oil refinery in Jazan on August 9. On September 10, an Iranian-backed militia in Iraq—plausibly coordinating with the Houthis—struck the critical East-West Pipeline that had allowed the country to reroute its oil exports from the Strait of Hormuz to the Red Sea. And on September 18, a Houthi ballistic missile targeting Riyadh was intercepted by Saudi air defenses.” As I personally see this, the Iranian puppets are now acting against Saudi Arabia and this requires more than just shrugging. A few weeks ago I gave Saudi Arabia more ideas and put is up to them to distill if my ideas have merit. I believe it does. We need to act in support of allies and I have always regarded that Saudi Arabia and the UAE are allies. As such we need to act. So I am in favour of acting, but we get from the Guardian ‘Trump calls off airstrikes at last minute’ and we can set this to all kinds of reasons, but in the end their ally Saudi Arabia was under attack and they became an undecided party. So what is the right action? As I see it we stand with Saudi Arabia (with the UAE too) and we take Iran and his terrorist organisations to the cleaner. I am too old to fight, but I have a few good ideas and the first one is to destroy the harbour of Mocha and destroy whatever it gets in ships, because that is how the Houthi get their weapons. It seems that their source is Eritrea, but how do they get there? That is where I see it different. The Iranian ships come to the Gulf of Aden and most likely the Iranians have a deal with people around Aden (pure speculation on my side), there I too much with Eritrea I am not accepting, it is almost like the intelligence is set for Saudi Arabia to start unprovoked attacks on Eritrea. And I am driven by evidence (and I am not privy to the evidence that might exist), so basically I am flying blind. But the media knows a lot more and they are absent in the reporting of the Iranian Houthi acts. They basically merely state ‘Iran-backed Houthis’ all whilst it should be ‘the Iranian puppet run Houthi terrorists’ and there is no place for the undecided ones. So whilst they are trying to weasel their ways in a setting where they can shine like the proverbial peace talking people and all whilst they are playing with the lives of others, they are hiding in a setting where they are safe, but their is no longer any safe place. There are no longer talks, President Trump made that impossible when they attacked on February 28th. So either they commit to eradicating Iran, or Iran becomes the biggest terrorist handler the world has ever seen and we are lucky, because this setting would be 100 times larger if Qasem Soleimani was still alive. That is the only luck we currently have and that is why we need to be decisive in all this and unite behind Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I personally feel more like an Emirati, mainly because I am no Muslim and Saudi Arabia is decently conservative Muslim. But that is probably the only reason. I still believe in the defense of Saudi Arabia, which is why I handed them my military IP. 

So when will the world wake up? When the oil stops delivering? When the Houthis decide that they should (with assistance) of Hezbollah turn towards Israel and Egypt? They are then merely one step away from France. So when that becomes a feeding ground towards pushing them all towards Shia Islam, what is stopping them? The undecided ones? It will be too late at that point. We have options at this point and as I see it the United States no longer is one, so we either unite with Saudi Arabia or we see our world come undone. And don’t put too much faith in the selective outrage of Antonio Guterres stating “I have never seen killing and destruction like Gaza”, where we should wonder what he was doing when we saw the fatalities of Ethiopia set to 750,000 to 797,000 people per year, 377,000 total deaths in Yemen, Sudan with 400,000 deaths, and Ukraine with an expected 525,000 fatalities? So, was Antonio Guterres asleep at the wheel? (Im just asking). We need to stop the lackeys of Iran and stop Iran, a two sided battle and there is no prize for the losers and if we remain undecided we will most certainly lose. A lesson that President Trump apparently never learned. Because he boasted to have defeated Iran over 30 times and as I see it Saudi Arabia as well as the UAE had to clean up the mess of this. So when this mess gets cleaned up, we need to see what to do next. I still think that China might be the solution to all this and I reckon that the EU comes around the moment the dangers of Hezbollah, Houthi and Iran becomes real, but that might be too late a setting and I have no idea how the intelligence of DGSE is. But if you are not an intelligence person you might never know and those who are aren’t putting this on their blog (as I am), a simple truth. But the best actions? I actually have no idea, but I see the danger (even if some make claim that there is none) recognising the dangers we are in is important, because that shows you who the undecided ones are and with that we could see where we can find an optional solution.

Have a great day today.

Reverse CandE

That is what I am postulating. The setting of Cause and Effect. It is slightly better than the butterfly effect, which makes no sense in the chaos theory as their flapping wings will not explain the volcano’s on Indonesia or the drowning buffalos in India. But cause and effect, sometimes ‘explained’ away by ‘post hoc ergo propter hoc’, which is nice, but I also support the fallacy in all this that this is assuming a causal link simply based on the order of events in time. Time is never ever a proper setting, even though it is the one part we currently cannot influence at present. But the setting of cause and effect is clear and I have been reversing this for the longest of times, so I took the effects I saw and went back to the cause that caused it. It is a flawed setting, I know that because it depends on how much data I have, just like a fake AI, it can only postulate on data it has and draws a blank when that required data is missing.

So here we get to the Guardian (at https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/sep/17/trump-calls-eu-offer-to-canada-associate-membership-laughable-threatens-tariffs) where we see ‘Trump threatens to stop trading with EU over ‘laughable’ membership offer to Canada’ and some will laugh at his delusions, but I am looking deeper than that, is this another nail in the coffin  called the United States of America? I have supporting evidence all over my blog in the last two years. You see, that president is scared like a little bunny, because he is about to piss of all the members of power in Wall Street and there is no way they will go along with this. The earlier marker which was given to us yesterday by the BBC with ‘Trump hits out at US central bank’s decision to hike interest rates’, is saw this a lot earlier when I mentioned and compared the dangers of the United States with a setting in 1923 called the hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic. You know that time when you paid 50,000 Deutsch Marks for a cup of coffee and the United States is heading in that way (if it was up to this US administration) but the setting we are looking at now is given to us by the Guardian. So when we see “US president responds as Mark Carney seeks to move closer to Europe and diversify defence ties”, so as we see the delusional settings of the United States. We really should be looking at the counter settings. As Europe will also be setting the absurd need for oil (because go the Gulf States and the Iranian/Houthi terrorist settings) Europe and the EU have optionally secured their oil needs for the near future. I reckon that once the gulf states secure the routes they need to have and by law were allowed to have, they will deal with Iran and its terrorist links in not so subtle a way. 

And as President Trump is seen like a one trick pony and his ‘solution’ to everything “The US president said that if the EU moved forward with the plan, Washington could impose “very serious tariffs or stop trading with Europe”. He added: “If it’s a good intention, that’s fine. If it’s a bad intention, we’ll put very heavy tariffs on Europe.”” But here he misjudges things. You see, no one wants to do business with the USA and when you do not deal with the USA and completely shuts it off, there is 0 trade and as such 0 tariff. And the setting for the EU and Canada are clear. Canada secures a lot more trade and perhaps not in all fields, but the oil will make up for a lot and whilst Canada secures additional trades with other Commonwealth parties, Canada will be better off and as such so will the Commonwealth and the EU. 

So then we get to the juicy steak and with “Ursula von der Leyen said: “This is a partnership not against anyone else, but for our common strength. In short, we want to bring the relationship with Canada to the highest level possible.” In response to Trump’s comments, France’s Europe minister Benjamin Haddad said on Thursday that Washington had no power to veto EU decisions.” And with this the second hurdle Is broken, as Washington never ever had powers to veto the decisions of the EU, the view of delusion is clear. So whilst there is every chance that Canada selects the Gripen, and the EU selects Canada, we see in this economy of turmoil that Wall Street will either select a new president, or be washed up. Either way works for me and I worked from the effects we see to the cause that caused it all and it is not a pretty picture, because as I see it, others have seen this too and the population of the United States will face a massively harder time as costs will rise to surpass the amounts these people can afford. As I Personally see it, it will be a lot harder than the settings of the Great Depression (aka Wall Street crash of 1929) and it will be at least twice as bad now. It will be a lot worse because the options of getting something by paying 10% is no longer possible. The banks will be broke, the corporations will be broke and this was enabled by that fake golden age of AI, Consider that the elements that we are given are:

Microsoft has committed to a massive global multi-year CapEx cycle, nearing $190 billion, to build out the data center capacity required for the AI economy. But the reverse is also seen. Data sovereignty in the EU and the commonwealth will shut them out of massive amounts of data and this is already happening, but the ‘investment’ cycle is still held in high esteem. So what happens to a data centre that has no data, or basically much too little? Now Microsoft who is valued at 3.70 trillion will not worry about that 190 billion, but the grease wheels expect return on investment and that is not coming into their books until late 2035, so what happens? Google and IBM are in a much better place, but Amazon and Oracle will shed blood and plenty of that and this will be going on until the late 2030. And all alt the US economy needs to pay poverty a trillion dollars in interest. There is no question about how great the US economy is, it is not and someone has to pay the piper. That is what I saw over two years ago with the little settings that was clear and now Wall Street will need to adjust the sails and they will sail away from President Trump, he is now a clear and present danger to the US economy. Jamie Dimon and David Kelly (the fat cats of JP Morgan) had already raised alarms in October 2025 and matters have only gone from bad to worse. The world at large is shunning the US as an ally and an economic partner. Optionally only Japan remains, but they likely have no choice in that matter.

So what are the causes for the United States? I would say delusional settings. You see, what gave the United States the idea that they could veto whatever the EU decided on? What gave them the idea that Canada would ever be a 51st state and what gave them the idea that the Gulf States would sit by whilst Washington renamed the Strait of Hormuz to the Strait of America? What possessed America to take lead in Danish territory (aka Greenland)? There are all matters that are effects of a case that is simply put that the United States is scraping the bottom of their economic barrel. They are out of funds and now basically out of time too and the midterms are about 8 weeks away and the current president is now too afraid to face the American public and they have had enough of him. The cost of their survival is about to be shown in real numbers and that is what this president fears. No matter how much he promises them for their vote, they are now seeing that he cannot afford anything, so they get nothing. Simple cause and effect.

Have a great day today and consider taking time to enjoy a decent breakfast and a coffee today.

The media orchestra

That is what it sounds like, but what us it? It is a media apparatus all set towards the impending doom of isolation, but is that really the case. We start with ‘US opts not to back Saudi Arabia in Yemen after meeting Houthi leaders’ which comes from the Guardian a mere 6 hours ago. It is here we see “Iran-backed militants have offered Trump administration assurances over safety of Red Sea shipping”, as I see it, the divide and conquer model is still the preferred model for Iran backed dumbo’s. And with the setting of “Officials from the US met Houthi leaders over the weekend at the country’s embassy in Muscat, Oman, it has been confirmed, leading to the US decision not to intervene to help Saudi Arabia drive back a Houthi advance inside Yemen.” And with that I personally see (not everyone agrees) that the US has been made the bitch of Iran, initially by Iran itself and now by a vassal of Iran. That is some serious bad managing allies Washington. I am clearly a no-one (mostly self proclaimed) but when Saudi Arabia was under attack, I gave them my military IP to attack Iran and after that the Houthi terrorists. I feel perfectly fine doing that, in the first we all have a decently sworn duty to counter terrorism where we see it and Houthi’s are terrorists, plain and simple. We then get ‘Saudis pound Yemen as Houthis fire back, further widening Middle East war’, we get this from ABC News 15 hours ago where we see “Iran-backed rebels in Yemen have launched drones and missiles at Saudi cities, as the Kingdom launches hundreds of air strikes against Houthi positions, in a further sign that the conflict is worsening. Houthi strikes on a Saudi pipeline has disrupted up to 4 per cent of global oil shipments, further exacerbating the supply shortage triggered by the Iran war. The US is now issuing new warnings to government employees operating in Saudi Arabia.” As well as “The Houthis, who since last week have swept through Yemeni towns along the Red Sea coast and seized islands in the Bab el-Mandeb strait at its mouth, released battlefield video overnight of fighters seizing armoured vehicles from Saudi-backed forces.” All whilst the other ‘side’ is that we are given that ‘Chris Wright on Energy Abundance’ so whilst we are given “The secretary of energy says that making power more abundant for billions of people around the world will only improve their lives—and bring costs down” he gives a theoretical setting to counter a real political one. A non-ally does that and this all started by the stupid actions of the United States (as well as Israel) but the sentiment is that Israel would never have taken such bold actions if it had not received support from the United States. Israel has real grievances with Iran, so I am keeping them out of all this as much as possible. I saw that the only way to counter Iran was the destruction of their 10 refineries as well as ‘scuttle’ (it was as good a word as any) their infrastructure. I handed the IP of this to both the UAE and Saudi Arabia, because they were both under attack for acts they had no help or dealings in. They ever denied the United States to act against Iran from their soil. But Iran’s setting was destabilization of any means as much as possible. It was my thought (optionally a wrong one) that the United States believed that stabilization was their way of coming out on top in the global economy, all whilst they are losing allies quicker than anything the United States has ever witnessed. Some say that the list of allies the United States has dwindled down to 7. Even as we see “The U.S. has comprehensive bilateral and multilateral free trade agreements with 20 countries (including Australia, Canada, Mexico, South Korea, Singapore, and several Central American and Middle Eastern nations)” and it seems that no one took the tariff settings into account. As such they have very little allies left and in that setting the ‘talks’ with Houthi terrorists is a desperate one. And yesterday we got ‘Saudi Arabia warns it will respond ‘firmly’ to Houthi attacks, as oil prices surge’ (source: SBS) so why is the oil price in this so important? Saudi Arabia is under terrorist attack and where is that so called navy of the United States stopping Iranian smuggle vessels? So as we are given “The Houthis have been engaged in renewed fighting with Saudi-backed government forces since Yemen’s civil war reignited in July, when the group declared a maritime blockade on Riyadh and began targeting its ships in the Red Sea.” But the counter setting is also clear. They are receiving massive help from Iran as Houthi resources are dwindling down and as Yemen has little in all this to produce, how are the Houthi getting these materials? So as some make references towards “Iran provides advanced weaponry—including ballistic missiles and drones—along with training and financial assistance as part of its regional “Axis of Resistance”. While international intelligence and independent bodies document this extensive backing, Tehran officially denies direct military involvement.” So whilst some are ‘focussed’ on the tracks of Eritrea and Houthi’s. The technology of Sudan is equally limited and no one is seemingly ‘too’ interested in stopping that too. Is that the act of an Ally? It seems that the walls are closing in on Saudi Arabia, but for what reason? An ally is that, an ally. But as I see it, the United States is so dependent in debt that they will talk to anyone coming with a bag of coins and for that matter, what was stopping the United States to destroy the 10 refineries Iran had? I even created IP to stop their harbors and trains from working, making progress from Iran almost impossible. And I am a no-one. Why did the Pentagon not see these actions. I know I got the better solutions over DARPA at least 4 times over, but I am not that big a genius. So what was stopping the United States with all its resources from coming up with better solutions? Makes you think doesn’t it. And there is no boasting. I put these solutions (in part) on my blog, as such, there are ways to check that. And the tactical insights are about that of a toddler in a sandbox (perhaps their AI disassembled that sandbox?) But it seems to me that too many media (optionally correctly) is showing the world that Saudi Arabia has less and less real allies left. As I see it we need to stand with Saudi Arabia and send that message clearly, of course the other option is clear too. If China now proclaims Saudi Arabia to be an ally and clearly shows this by showing the extent towards a group like the Houthi terrorists, Beijing gets a golden treatment, oil for a long time (and that reduction comes from the United States pile) the United States comes into one of the final legs of their self made train crash. Because without oil it ends quite fast and quite clear. As such the world will say to Chris Bright you proclaimed that you had the way to that making power more abundant for billions of people around the world will only improve their lives—and bring costs down. But the down side to this is that shale gas comes with dangers. Dangers to environment, climate, and health and all due to hydraulic methodology and the chemicals here could reach underwater water streams optionally poisoning the entire nation. But no one is thinking about that, this beside the point that the Dutch learned the hard way. They now have to deal with earthquakes, a place that almost never had them before now has to deal with them regularly. The Netherlands now has 287.000 places in real danger of earthquakes. That is what the United States await and all because it is no longer an ally of the Saudi Arabia, a harsh price to pay and Saudi Arabia never wanted any of this, but now they must do what is bet to Saudi Arabia and what is best for its citizens and as I personally see it, they might turn to China for that. So less than an hour ago we were given ‘US and Houthi Officials Hold Secret Oman Talks as Yemen Conflict Escalates’ with the text “Reuters, citing regional and diplomatic sources, reported that the meeting took place in Muscat with Omani mediation. The Houthi delegation was reportedly led by chief negotiator Mohammed Abdulsalam, while the United States was represented by officials involved in regional security and maritime diplomacy.” And the parties in this were keeping this a secret? (Tiny giggle escaping my throat) but the setting is now clearing up. China has a rather large opportunity and if that help results in downing or even eradicating Houthi interests in Saudi Arabia, the United States will be on the defense, losing the Gulf states for well over a decade. So where was the upside in that February 28th attack on Iran? Where are the smugglers in Eritrea getting their hardware? Why does a no one like me see this whilst this should be clear all over the Pentagon (aka 7400 Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301) as I see it, some games are being played and that might be on the current political branch and the Pentagon takes order from them. As I personally see it, Saudi Arabia will be forced to adjust its traction and allies, but then I am not a politician and I could be wrong.

Have a great day all.

Life in turmoil

Im not sure where I stand at present. I am seeing all kind of settings. X is now following me (not are if that is real or some scammer) I get unwarranted direct messages, who apparently vanished a little later and I am seeing populist statements on all kinds of social media. Not sure what to make of it. Still getting shafted by LinkedIn/Microsoft they told me I was looked up twice last week, whilst I can see three directly and I know of two others, so 5 (I reckon more) looked me up, but that LinkedIn/Microsoft setting told me two looked me up, So is this an example of fake AI, or is this a sales technique and if it is a sales technique it is a bad one, because as I see it, there is a clear need for a Chinese version of LinkedIn. Apart from that, Google missed the pole by a mile, and whilst at least two called were lost as my phone was apparently in Do Not Disturb, all whist I have never ever used that mode. And what I had last wee I had today again. My new Google Pixel 11 now switches on WiFI all whilst I never invited it to do so (as such Sundar is basically enabling cybercrimes). As such a word of warning to Sundar Pichai (the big boss there) My Google Pixel 11, is now less functional than my Google Pixel 9 ever was. There are a few issues with my Watch 5 as well, but I am not sure if that is an app setting or if it lost functionality against my Watch 2. These guys are so into ‘innovation’ mode that the basics are passed over. I think it is disgraceful and you need to clean up your settings and soon. There is now a decent setting for Huawei to come on in and take over market share. I have been a Google phone fan for a long time (this is my third one) but at this speed I am switching to Huawei the next time around. 

So my life is a little in turmoil, because if it ain’t broke don’t fix it and I need to fix a lot at present and that is never good for my peace of mind. In addition to all this Al Jazeera gives us ‘Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia could activate defence pact, Pakistan says’ as such there is less stability coming our ways and whilst we get the Guardian giving its a few hours ago ‘Houthis seize key Yemeni port of Mocha in drive to take control of Red Sea coast’ there is now an option for Iran to resupply Houthi terrorists, as such I think there is a decent setting that the Mecca defence pact will see activation. I am happy that I gave my harbour solution to Saudi Arabia as well, as such they could shut it down completely (and leave the Iranian smugglers out of options. But the setting isn’t that Houthi terrorists got a harbour. It becomes who else is supplying these Houthi terrorists, because as I see it, the map is all wring, this cannot be a simple Iranian ploy, or at least not only. There is another player in these town aiding these terrorists. 

But what is really happening there? As I see it, there is too little and Iran cannot be in this alone, someone is ‘aiding’ the Houthi terrorists. So as I see it, the defense pact that is in place might be more important than anyone thinks and It is my believe that this pact should aid Saudi Arabia. There is a simple setting to this. The Wall Street Journal gave us ‘Trump’s Top Advisers Confront Possibility That Iran War Lasts Through End of Term’ less than 20 hours ago. And after President Trump has given the world that ‘he’ won that war over 66 times, there is a smallest chance that the Iran war is one the United States might lose and at that point Saudi Arabia and the rest of the gulf states might get the impact of that shown at their borders. As such the pressure needs to be removed between the Yemeni borders in the form of Houthi terrorist and this defense pact might be the solution. As I see it, Saudi Arabia cannot count on anything coming from the United States. At Present we see that President Trump is offering $5000 dollars to anyone if he winds the midterms. That could be up to 200,000,000 time $5000, which boils down to a cool trillion and I am not certain if the coffers of the United States treasury could validate this. This is beside the point whether the would be legal, because as I see it, in the Commonwealth it is illegal as it is illegal in plenty of civil law counties in Europe, but I am not versatile in US Laws, but I reckon it could be illegal there too. So what do you do with a president who advocates optional illegal acts? As such the Mecca defense agreement might be what Saudi Arabia needs to rely on at present. 

As such I am in turmoil, or at least my life is, things go wrong all over the place and the people we rely on are nowhere to be seen. I am partially appalled with the politicians in the United Kingdom and Australia to stay silent in case of the trade war between Canada and the United States. It is me personal believe that these commonwealth nations need to speak out in favour of Canada. And whilst Rolling Stone steps up their game by giving us ‘How Mark Carney became leader of the free world by standing up to Trump’, it seems that Australia and the UK remain largely silent and all along Trump gives us some news on beating up Mark Carney as a Hockey player (all whilst others give us news that unlike PM Carney, Trump cannot hold himself on the ice on skates) and Trump is giving us the entire North America, and Greenland drenched in the US flag. And there is limited news on all of this. That might be the most unsettling side of it all. As I personally see it, Carney is the PM of the entire Commonwealth as I see it and it is my personal believe that PM Carney is due a massive knighthood (Order of the Garter) from Charles III, King of the United Kingdom I reckon that he is worthy of this in the very least. So much turmoil and I am not the only one saying this, there are more that give similar views. But as I see it, the politicians in the Commonwealth remain largely quit. It is embarrassing to say the least. As such it is my delight to wave of some of that stress by slapping Sundar Pichai silly (with words) and it is the smallest of stress settings that I am seeing at present. But tomorrow (which is already now) so a few hours form now, the sun might come up and Google might fix a few things, because I paid good money ahead of schedule (my phone could have survived another year, my Google watch 2 probably not) So as I see it, stress is what we make, with additional help form the surrounding settings we see. 

So even if my life is in turmoil, I wish you all a great day.

Rage against the dying of someone

That is quite frankly what I am feeling. There is an absolute disgrace from what the Journalists tend to give us. And as I see it, it is a lot more then western media, although there is a fair chance that I am incorrectly seeing the stage. I get that, but when Al Jazeera gives us ‘Yemen fighting updates: Battles rage between Houthi and Saudi-backed forces’ there is already a discussion that needs to take place. One is a terrorist organization this would be the Houthi setting, the other is a government trying to keep its citizens safe and those are the Saudi backed forces. Then we see (at https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2026/9/8/yemen-fighting-live-battles-rage) the setting that is clearly (as I personally see it) in connection to Iranian ‘needs’. “Yemen’s Houthis targeted Aramco facilities in the Saudi Arabian cities of Abha, Najran and Jizan, as well as an airbase in Khamis Mushait, with ballistic missiles and drones.” Aramco is targeted because Iran made it so, not because Houthis decided it is. For that matter, can anyone tell me how Houthis got their hands on “ballistic missiles and drones”? As I see it, that small part is a little puzzle to me. The Houthi forces have no infrastructure to get that done. And for that matter as we take notice of “As Yemen experiences its most intense fighting in years, a new wave of child recruitment in the country is taking shape.” As I see it, it is Hamas all over again and for that matter any assistance given to Saudi Arabia is one that is clearly needed. And as I see it, the amputation of Iranian directions in the area of Houthi terrorists need to be dealt with. We can do whatever we want, but until that assistance is amputated from Houthi consideration the hostilities will remain and more than likely intensify. In the meantime, The Guardian (at https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/sep/08/houthi-strike-saudi-arabia-oil-facilities-middle-east-war-iran) gives us ‘Houthis strike Saudi Arabian cities in significant expansion of Middle East war’ where we see “Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis have attacked four cities in Saudi Arabia, wounding more than 70 people and setting oil installations ablaze in what appeared to be a significant expansion of the Middle East war. Saudi Arabia said it would retaliate after the overnight strikes – reportedly involving dozens of drones and missiles – that targeted several oil facilities in the country’s south.” So whilst there are a few sides to consider, I suddenly had a nice insight into a new IP, something that I nigh hand to Saudi Arabia, but I need to do a little more digging and whilst there is a nasty side effect to all this it might be a connected solution. You see, if oil is the issue, why not make Iranian oil worthless? It comes with the added setting that Saudi Arabia might have to sell all its oil to China, but that is a small price to pay and if that happens, Houthi terrorists no longer get Iranian backing and they have to go up against China then. The symmetric balance is yummy. The United States loses its Saudi oil, but they started the attack on Iran and in a massively idiotic sense, but I wrote about that failing several times from March 1st this year. So they get that complication, but it might not be a complication as President Trump stated on several events that they have plenty of oil. So lets test that setting.

And is it malice what I am proposing? No, not really. I am just keeping Saudi civilians safe. Which is a lot more than most non-Saudi’s have done up to now. So I am working with a decently weighed bat (as the expression goes). So what is this ‘super’ solution that no one can find? It is out there. I am proposing to inject the Iranian pipelines with Hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria and a lot of it, The part that I am still uncertain of is how much is needed. You see, if you put 6 injections of 100-500 liter of bacteria in different places of the pipelines will they reproduce? Or is is a mere temporary decrease in oil quality. Both are a damaging to the Iranian oil, but if they can grow in that setting, the larger Iranian oil collection will become inert and useless in a short time. When that happens their economy collapses as as their customers want their cash back and that is where China would need Saudi oil. When that happens Houthi terrorists stop getting any finding from Iran and they made China an optional enemy. I love the clean symmetry of that whilst the United States will claim ‘fowl’ and call themselves victims, they started this and President Trump made a claim of victory at least 66 times (according to sources). I personally never bothered to count these times. But another method that did not require bombing civilians, merely take their economic future away. I am sneaky that way. 

As such, if Iran doesn’t want this to happen, they will need to sever their ties with the Houthi terrorists, so that Saudi Arabia can deal with these terrorists. Look at me go, in one simple swoop I changed the balance of power in the Middle East and I did this on 5 drumsticks and a cup of coffee. I wonder what I could achieve by easting a decent dinner. 

But this are the delusional setting s we all face. What if I had a yummy dinner with Tiramisu and a Bambi burger? Some weird thoughts are with us all, nearly all the time. And I for one wonders why the United States never considered that. Are they now too broke that they need Iranian oil as well? A minus 40 trillion bank balance tends to do that. So whilst (according to Yahoo) we saw “President Trump posting on social media that oil prices will drop “when we WIN the war with Iran”” and that is the second part ofd the equation. What if they lose the war? As present the war has costed the U.S. government roughly $37.5 billion in direct military spending and a total economic and household costs exceeding $115 billion as such there is a decent chance that as Iran does not proclaim a loss against the United States and Israel, we can deuce that the US forces lost this one and as such Saudi Arabia needs a second plan to stop these terrorist actions. I came up with this, it deflates Iran, isolates Houthi terrorists and no physical ‘bombs’ dropped. I should be getting a Nobel peace price in the process.

Have a great day all.

Where the mind boggles

That sounds like quite the assignment, but it isn’t. It merely connects to the sides not looked at. I for one did not consider that the story for the last two days was by itself, but it fits the setting of the TV series Engonos I was creating over the last year. More of a setting towards the end of season one. It bares consideration, even though there are a few hiccups. One of them is the massive neglected way that Final Draft deals with copied text, It is a large headache and I was considering what to do and next is the setting that I might have to re-see the option of upgrading down the line and for now do it all in pages. Personally I think that this makes the matter worse (for now) but that inkling was a hopefully unexpected surprise on the horizon. Still there are options to consider. 

Still at present I am looking at what the world is throwing at me and it is a feeling. Because that is all  have to go with. There are a few reasons I do not trust the numbers that the United States throws at us and I will explain the setting that I have. First there is ‘The US economy added 162,000 jobs in August, more than double expectations’ (source: CNN) it shows that Leisure and hospitality added 62K jobs, in September? The summer is at an end and there might be a reason, but it feels like someone is passing the message that summer in the USA was not wasted, all whilst the international travel numbers have been down. Then we get (from an unnamed source) that ‘Trump Threatens Trade War on Deficit Countries If Fed Refuses to Cut Rates’, which is the bully tactic we expected to see, but a trade war on condition that the Federal reserve doesn’t cut rates? So if my accountant doesn’t hand me more money I am going to bully my clients? That is weird, isn’t it? So as we see: “President Donald Trump issued one of his most sweeping demands yet to the Federal Reserve on Friday, September 4, 2026, calling on the central bank to slash interest rates to the lowest level of any country in the world following a stronger-than-expected August jobs report that added 162,000 jobs and significantly exceeded forecasts, while simultaneously threatening to halt trade with every country the United States runs a trade deficit against if rates are not cut. “Great jobs number just announced, breaking all estimates (except mine!) by double and triple,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Friday, adding: “EMPLOYERS ADDED 162,000 JOBS IN AUGUST. Lower the interest rates because the U.S.A. is a much stronger credit than it was just a short time ago!”” But there was a reason for showing you this. You see, yesterday several sources gave me ‘Trump says will ask Europeans to repay US for aiding Ukraine’ which is something that wildly borders the insane. And as Europe is starting to realise that Russia could be moving towards Europe, there are a few sides to “US President Donald Trump said on Thursday he will ask Europeans to repay the American aid provided to Ukraine under the administration of his predecessor Joe Biden.” And there is the upside that he will be absent at the 9/11 memorial because there is every chance that people will lynch him there, just a thought to consider. You see, all this is making sense when you consider that a $40,000,000,000,000 debt and its pending interest bill is strangling this administration. We all see the bleak words “A nation cannot go bankrupt, it could always print money” but Germany did that in 1923, it was a nightmare slip unlike any German had faced before and 99% of all retirements were wiped out in a day, making their entire retirement less valued that a loaf of bread. The other 1% lost their value the day after. That is the setting that this US administration is heading for, because that is a bleak reality of the setting we see now and whilst there are people calling me crazy and they are ready to call me insane, but watch what happens, this setting is nearing its final battle. All this and the evidence (as given) is accepted by too many people as a “at no cost to the USA” which is already crazy as hell, but the headline ‘The US and Venezuela: a century-old relationship drenched in oil’ given to us by the Guardian with the subtext ‘Trump ally defends Venezuela oil deal amid ‘gunpoint diplomacy’ criticism’ and the additional stage of ’Nobel laureate Machado: ‘Illegitimate’ Venezuela regime has no right to strike US oil deal’ where questions needed to be asked of that Venezuelan regime, because the actions of an illegal act come to mind, but that is optional not on the US side. If the US is able to make a questionable political act there is merely the question if it was illegal and under that guise the UN would have to intervene, because that is what we all signed on for on October 24th 1945 and debt be damed (as some might say), but this setting is one that has grim repercussions for the United States, the question becomes (as the Guardian gives us “Decades later, little appears to have changed. After a brazen night-time kidnapping of the country’s leader earlier this year, Donald Trump announced last week that the US was taking majority control over about a fifth of Venezuela’s oil reserves. That deal, according to the White House, “secures our energy dominance for the next century”. How much it will benefit Venezuelans is yet to be seen. The country’s importance to the US has been proven time and time again over the past century. Home to what are now known to be the world’s largest known oil reserves, Venezuela kept allied planes, ship and tanks well fuelled during the second world war.” There is a sickening realisation that this money grabbing administration is out and about to secure whatever it can, because the funds are drying up, up to $90K per second and that realisation is something that Washington is feeling nervous about and whilst the Federal Reserve is doing its job, it is not to the liking of this administration, because Washington is ready to start additional trade wars if the interest is not lowered. The United States has become this desperate and whilst I noticed the Venezuelan issues 2-3 days ago, it matches the sentiment and all whilst we get to hear “The United States is currently experiencing a widely declared “golden age of AI,” driven by massive private tech spending and federal initiatives like the White House AI Action Plan” which I call a brazen misdirection because a golden age is felt by all, not by 6 tech giants showing money to each other and that setting was illuminated by the three stooges. They wanted to represent the banks in that matter. Isn’t it weird that in 1953 they did the same for AI? (at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pENxsLVR_Xs) I wonder if anyone else saw that nice relationship. So as some are realizing that the Golden age of AI was going to be late (I saw this setting over a year ago) we have to see what is left of the United States when the bills come calling, because whilst the United States is so called “repay the American aid provided to Ukraine” the dangers is that as “U.S. Treasury bonds faced a sharp sell-off and pushed yields to 20-year highs in August 2026, driven by surging oil prices, inflation fears, and a growing national debt” (source: the Guardian) another issue I saw coming and all whilst several nations are now withdrawing their gold reserves from America. And whilst we see (source: Reuters) that the U.S. Treasury announced it would double its long-end debt buyback operations from $2 billion to at least $4 billion per operation and they are already in deficit by 2 trillion dollars, I reckon that a figurative setting of adding $6 trillion to the US debt might be cause for concern. That last bit is my speculation, because I feel certain that the additional 2 trillion isn’t anywhere one the books and I recon the initial 2 trillion was negated and an operational cost that had not been settled in yet. So I might be wrong on the $6 trillion part, but after we see all that transpired, I wonder how wrong I am. 

The question now becomes, what will the United Nations do? It has a firm responsibility towards a nation like Venezuela too and whilst there are mental capacities in play (I for one have never received a free gift of $5 trillion and I would be hesitant to accept such a large amount, because Venezuela might not be liquid enough to hand over that amount of funds) but that is the setting and I do not envy the job of the UN at present, these settings are hitting us all at the same time and whilst I still have issues with some of the numbers handed to us. The setting is that the USA now has power over a fifth of the Venezuelan oil reserves set to over 17 oil fields holding an estimated 65 billion barrels of crude oil (source: the Conversation) this after we got whilst the camping trip to Venezuela was set and I raised it a year ago (December 2025) things were not making sense and after Greenland and Canada, I raised that. As I see it, the puzzle pieces are showing a nation to insolvent to continue and I might be wrong about that, I am no economist, but the numbers are telling me a framed picture whilst everyone else is showing me that the picture is different. I personally wonder who they are showing their colours to and I am unwilling to change my stance, I am no economist, but numbers I know and they are showing a different picture. Am I right, am I wrong? You see we used to rely on the media, but they lost too much credibility. It comes with the clickbait setting and the run to digital dollars.

So, feel free to disagree with me and have a great day today.

If his lips are moving

It was the first thing I considered. You see, I saw an article and it made my blood boil, but a few seconds later I was considering some of the options that this could have been enabled through ruses. So what gives?

The article that pushed me was ‘Trump says Canada wants ‘benefits’ of being US state after trade talks collapse’ (source: BBC) where we see “US President Donald Trump has said Canada wants “the benefits of being a state, without being one” after trade talks between the two countries collapsed late on Friday. The breakdown of negotiations triggered new 50% US tariffs on a range of Canadian goods. Trump also said American farmers had been charged “massive amounts of Tariffs” for years.” What I think happened is that Prime Minister Carney pulled the deal and he could have said “What is even the benefit of being in a partnership without having an actual partner?” Or something to that effect and as we see the Guardian giving us “Carney, whose willingness to stand up to Trump has made him popular in Canada, has said that “America has changed,” and that the two countries would not return to their old relationship. The Canadian public has also been incensed by US policy towards their country, particularly Trump’s comments about turning Canada into the 51st US state. A petition to expel the US ambassador to Canada, Pete Hoekstra, has collected about 248,000 signatures, accusing him of normalising the notion of the US annexing Canada.” As such we now see that a trade war is in effect between our friends in Canada and that place where idiots reside (a place between Canada and Mexico) and it is time that we openly support our brethren (sisters too) in Canada. 

And as the Guardian is also giving us ‘The lesson from Canada’s collapsed trade talks with the US: negotiation may be futile’ where we see “Breakdown shows Washington now prioritises its own interests over any semblance of shared economic ground”, which is weird as I have stated this for some time and the actions of ‘America First’ gives that same notion and the forced attempts of annexing Canada, Greenland, Venezuela and recently the claim ‘Trump says he views strait of Hormuz as ‘American territory’’ (source: the Guardian) almost 3 days ago, I’ll say that the setting of America First has taken a massive turn for the worse. And I say it is time for the leaders of the Commonwealth to come out clearly and loudly saying that they support Prime Minister Carney in every way possible. I saw options to put the screws onto President Trump by all the Commonwealth parties switching from the United States to Canada for delivery for as much as possible and if booze is so under attack through Canada (with almost 35 million people) consider what the Commonwealth could do with 2.7 billion and optional support of the EU, if we all cancel whatever booze contracts we have, the United States loses its alcohol empire, or merely sell it to the United States, which won’t hold up for long at present. And that is merely the beginning because other news (unconfirmed) is that places like Disney is in trouble. There were reports that Disney raised prices on several settings for the second time and people were ‘complaining’ that food is becoming too expensive, there were mentions that the tourists were bringing their own food and Disney had also shedded staff members and we see “Disney is executing multiple waves of layoffs in 2026, cutting hundreds to thousands of roles across major divisions like Marvel, Pixar, ESPN, and Lucasfilm as part of an ongoing cost-containment strategy” (source: Fox 4 Dallas) which implies that as tourism is in danger in the United States, things are considerably worse then I thought. The so called ‘everything is honky dory’ is a little less secure. As such the bullying tactic of President Trump makes a lot more sense now. I made several reports on the United States being almost broke and now I see that this is closer to the mark then even I considered. So when we see the quote in the Guardian “Jamieson Greer, the US trade representative, has said the US was compelled to act after a year of retaliatory measures by Canada. He told Fox & Friends Weekend: “We’ve said enough and so we’ve taken counter-measures. Our interest is in protecting American workers and protecting American supply chains.” Dan Kelly, president of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, estimated that 40% of small Canadian exporters will be directly hit by the US tariffs, and that nearly one-third expect their revenues will drop by 50% or more as a result.” And whilst this dumbo named Greer keeps on making mention of ‘retaliatory measures’ can we please clearly define his BS by repeating that they started calling Canada the 51st state again and again and the Canadians were fed up with this and decided to shun American booze and goods. And as a Commonwealthian I fully support their actions and I believe it is mandatory for all Commonwealthians to come together and support Canada in any way we can, assistance from the EU would be appreciated in this. I think they have had enough of the bully in the White House and as such they might consider the very same settings I have considered. As tourism dies down, the economic impact on the United States goes from bad to worse. Still there is more, Al Jazeera (at https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2026/8/22/iran-war-live-trump-says-tehran-not-ready-to-make-right-deal-to-end-war) gives us ‘Tehran says US sanctions ‘declaration of war’ on all nations’ where we see “US Energy Secretary Chris Wright has hailed the US’s oil and gas production as global energy remains strained due to disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. “American oil and gas workers have driven production to an all-time high, making the US the world’s largest producer of oil and natural gas,” said Wright in a post on X. Earlier, Wright also claimed the US military helped ship more than 15 million barrels of oil and other products out of the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday this week.” Why is this important? Because the United States was reliant on ‘cheap oil from the Middle East to offset the sales and now the United States needs this oil a lot more than ever before, as such the oil revenue is down. This American Administration is all about the good news, not the counter balance of these events and that only strengthens the others to support Canada in these times. And whilst the Irish times (at https://www.irishtimes.com/world/canada/2026/08/23/we-got-attacked-canada-to-retaliate-after-trump-imposes-50-tariffs/) gives us ‘‘We got attacked’: Canada to retaliate after Trump imposes 50% tariffs’ with the text “Canada will impose tariffs on some US goods in retaliation for 50 per cent ‌levies on Canadian products, prime minister Mark Carney said on Saturday, after trade talks collapsed between the two neighbours.

The “dollar for dollar” tariffs on imports of US steel, electronics and other products, to take effect on September 8th, mark a further worsening of relations between the long-time allies and major trading partners. The two countries failed to reach a trade deal late on Friday, with each side blaming the other for derailing three days of intensive negotiations. The breakdown complicates the future of a US-Mexico-Canada free-trade pact.” As well as “Carney is one of the few global leaders to retaliate against US tariffs ‌and has pledged to forge new trade and military alliances, despite Canada’s dependence on the United States for nearly 70 per cent of its exports.

US trade representative Jamieson Greer called the breakdown “a missed opportunity for Canada to partner with the United States,” saying no new talks were planned with Canada.

“We’re moving forward with measures that respond to Canadian retaliation,” Greer told Fox News. “They’ve always had the best deal, and they still would have an even better deal, but they didn’t want that.”” I personally believe that Jamieson Greer is the kind of person we all need to take under a magnifying glass after President Trump loses the midterms and those who went along with this charade (like Ambassador Pete Hoekstra) and in all this, I reckon that the State Department of the United States will have a sweet time getting anyone to trust them in the near future. But all this seems to point towards the biggest default in human history, because when this comes to blows, whomever trusted this president to put money in a debt that is not seeing any resolution will likely lose that money and there is a chance that they had it insured (like the setting they had in 2004) but that implies that insurance firms will lose whatever they had and this also implies that the United States is a very unwelcoming place for a long time. But not to fret, there is still the EU, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Japan and a few other places, so there are options for plenty of people and whilst the United States lose more and more, we could also redirect advertising, because that market is generating over $1 trillion a year, but in that new setting, what were the big winners named Alphabet (Google), Meta, and Amazon capture over half of all global advertising spend is now going to new places. It could still involve them but now from the Commonwealth and the EU, likely taxed to a far degree, as such I saw markets that the United States could lose, in the size setting of $300,000,000 to $450,000,000 per year, as such the United States will amazingly likely not be able to pay next year interest. And should these players allow China to inter their settings, the damage merely increases for the United States. 

So I started this with an expression “If his lips are moving, he is lying” And what gives me that setting? Well, over 100 general assertions that the U.S. defeated Iran, at least 38 claims that a final deal or resolution was imminent, and numerous intermittent assertions that the military phase ended within the initial hours or weeks of the engagement gives me the first right and the press has not been setting that premise correctly, merely sitting on the sidelines, trying to cash in on the digital dollars and that is about to go sideways in a few ways. Still, there is an option where I am wrong, but I don’t think so, the news is getting out more and more and the parties who should have intervened never did, as such there are several sides ‘overlooked’ and that is where I push the buttons, so think of this what you will and feel free to disagree with me, but wasn’t the fact that the US is so set on their booze getting imported into Canada, whilst placing limitations on Canada’s sovereign right to pursue and sign trade agreements with other international countries wasn’t a decent giveaway? When things are that outspoken, there is decent evidence that the United States is broke beyond belief and the last round bell sounded a few days ago. But that is merely my view on the matter. Have a great day and I wish Canadians all the strength that they can muster in these hard times.

Where is the win?

That is where I find myself. Apart from some noise that I am getting that I am an ‘alarmist’, which is fair. People do not see what I see and they are (massively) over the moon that everything will be OK with the US of A. I do not share that vision, but it is fair that they have their views. I get the alarmist setting, yet I feel that I am correct. So when the debts get any bigger, what do you think will happen? The USA has not been able to keep any budget and that was before the interest payments had become this high. On October 4th 2021 I wrote “Utter Insanity” (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2021/10/04/utter-insanity/) where I iterated that the debt was 17 trillion in 2013, America more than doubled that in a decade. It is now 40 trillion, the interest as I see it also doubled and that is the killer in all this. So whilst people think that I am an alarmist regarding the Civil War. What do you think will happen as the interest gnaws on whatever the USA falls in revenue each year. In fiscal year 2025, the U.S. federal government collected $5.26 trillion in total revenue. Now consider that 22% of all that revenue goes to paying the interest of the debt. And they cannot budget at present (or for the last decade), so the debt is only getting worse. So (to be safe) as per October 2026 the budgets will need to be set back by at least 30%, one third less for infrastructure, 30% less for social services and 30% less for whatever payments are going out. It will decrease the USA into a third world nation as I see it. And as I see it, this administration is only making it worse, because as others are rejecting ‘these American values’ (Tariffs for one) there is highly likely an uprising on its way, because Americans don’t have a real luxury sandwich at present and it will get worse. A lot worse. So as I personally see it, it is a civil war in the making and as we see the news on so many issues (the reflecting pool as one example) a setting that gives an estimated $16 million and that is before all the repairs are done. So if people lose 30% of what they were able to collect and these issues keep on coming up, the resentment and animosity are merely increasing. Then we get the price of gas and a few other things, so the people are losing what they had and prices are higher overall. And this is on this administration. So the purview of a incoming civil war in not without foreseen cause. Do I like it? No, I don’t but unlike the media, I merely care about the facts and all this is adding up to a sliding ramp straight down into an abyss. 

And the rejection of other nations on what this administration has done is very real and the entire Iran setting is pushing all the other nations too and they are all looking for a safe way out, because America is no longer a trustworthy partner, especially as North Korea is heralded as whatever they want to call this. So then we see the False AI up to all kinds of settings and we could blame all kinds of people in all this, but the reality is that what is called AI is merely fake AI and there are more and more voices (and a lot higher educated than me) calling what some call as AI as unreal and fake. So this ‘golden age’ will be at least a decade away, but I think it is more like 2 decades. All whilst Microsoft reported that over 80% of Fortune 500 companies use active AI agents and expecting widespread industry adoption to reach 1.3 billion agents globally by 2028. Really? Where will they get the power? At present the USA is facing brownouts. The US statistics reported that over 12 months one in four households faces a brownout. So where is the energy coming from, because these servers require massive amounts of energy. So when you see these elements of revenue, energy and abilities all whilst reduced manpower is required. So as we are given “AI agents are increasingly linked to corporate job cuts, and in a recent viral experiment, an AI agent manager even recommended firing a human worker.” Yet this is not the end of the story, there is also a backlash “Studies show a high rate of employer regret after cutting staff for AI, with many companies lacking ready systems or rehiring humans later under different titles” as such there are several issues from this setting. The costings that these firms had on less costs, is now becoming a more troubled setting because their costs are becoming a lot higher. This implies (I am very driven to imply here) that people are hired at less pay, and I get that this is the setting they face, but that also makes the cost of living a lot higher and a less rewarding life comes from that. How far this implicated life gets to is anyones guess and I reckon that this will change the lifestyle of many people, fueling distrust and discomfort on that setting. As I see it, the USA will face a serious chance in life styles. What was ‘advertised’ in life style magazines in 2023 will no longer be a reality, not for at least a decade for most people and that fuels the resentment and optionally louder shouts towards what I call a ‘civil war’ and there is corroborating evidence to that. “Nearly 46% to 62% of U.S. households (representing roughly 90 million adults) struggle to make ends meet and cover basic expenses like housing, food, and healthcare. This financial strain extends well past traditional poverty definitions, deeply impacting the American middle class” (source: Brookings), so is my view on this impending civil war so far fetched? These 90 million are likely to double when the 30% limits are pressed on nearly everyone, optionally as early as Quarter 2 2027. So as these facts rolled over my eyelids, I saw the puzzles are they became interconnected. Which I described as connected clusters, what some call cliquing, a subset of clusters where every single cluster is directly connected to every other cluster in the collection. There is no real science for this, but anyone in Market Research, Data Analyses and Data Parsing can recognise this effect and issues like gas prices and grocery prices will hit all these clusters at the same time. So when we get that, and we get that tourism goes out of the USA (for reasons will written a few times over) and others are also trying to make ends meet and that resolves around more and more competition and as the debt is strangling the resources this will be making matters worse. 

You merely need to see the different sides on that same stage but for different countries and you see that things are not looking good for the USA. So as I see it, there is no win, not for anyone and whilst the Guardian was giving us “Donald Trump amassed an unprecedented financial windfall during his return to the White House, reporting over $2.2 billion in revenue in 2025 alone, more than triple his earnings from the previous year. The vast majority of these personal financial gains stemmed from cryptocurrency ventures, digital assets, and branded merchandise, drawing severe criticism and ethics concerns from watchdogs and lawmakers regarding conflicts of interest”, so when you see this and the rest of the population minus perhaps 50,000 and they all lose 30% of what they were entitled to and whilst infrastructure will collapse in several places, resentment will grow. How far it will grow is anyones guess. But I feel decently certain that crime statistics will spike soon enough and that will give another resentment, because at 30% less, there will be less police, less first responders as well and as I see it, it will be bad news on top of bad news on top of bad news. So I think I showed here a few part of what I saw all along. But I feel it was essential to do this. I don’t mind being called an alarmist, it might be fair, but I saw data that merely gave me this inkling of a possible reality. 

Time will tell if I was right or wrong, but the larger picture is that the media never got to this point. Why not? Were they not supposed to inform us of the dangers that were coming our way? Because these negative points might impact Americans first, but we are all headed for more stringent settings. The EU and the commonwealth as well. I merely need to find a way out anywhere where I could make a decent penny. Have a great day all and try to enjoy a nice cup of coffee today.

Disaster through media

That is how I see it, it is not that they are wrong because as I see it, it fits directly in the views of a terrorist state and that directly hits towards their target. So what am I talking about? It is the article that the Guardian launched about an hour ago (at https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/aug/07/iran-war-trump-midterm-ballot) where we see ‘Iran plots to deal Trump a blow in midterms by keeping him entangled in war’, so whilst we saw again and again that a deal was coming through soon, which I always doubted, we now see this and with “Tehran has set out a protracted negotiating timetable designed to keep Donald Trump embroiled in the Iran conflict until the midterm elections, in the hope of inflicting the same ruinous blow on his presidency as Jimmy Carter suffered over the 1979-81 US embassy hostage crisis. For many inside Iran, inflicting meaningful revenge on Trump is a legitimate and self-standing war aim, reflected in the mood of those attending the funeral of the supreme leader Ali Khamenei where demands for retribution were ubiquitous.” The move makes perfect sense and I think that this will be the case. But we also saw about hour ago (at https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/8/7/saudi-arabia-pakistan-and-turkiye-sign-defence-deal-amid-regional-turmoil) that Al Jazeera gave us ‘Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkiye sign defence deal amid regional turmoil’ as such Iran is in a bind because these three will attack Iran if any of them is attacked. This leaves me with two thoughts. The first one (of a humorous nature) is that this might be the first time in history where Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Turkey and Israel have the same enemy, as such walking the streets of Tehran might be massively dangerous now. The other thought is that this puts the UAE standing alone and there is every chance that Iran will temper its false rage on the UAE, which is not a good thing. I feel better that I basically gave my military IP away to the UAE as well. Perhaps they can use it to sink the Iranian navy (it was a prototype, so it is not usable instantly). But this setting is now evolving, because the Guardian is also leaving us with “But the focus on the midterms became more obvious this week when the deputy foreign minister, Kazem Gharibabadi, told the official IRNA news agency that after agreeing a route for commercial shipping through the strait of Hormuz, it would take two to four months to reach the second phase of negotiations on Iran’s nuclear programme. The original plan – to commence the nuclear phase of the talks within 30 days of signing June’s memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the US – had been jettisoned by the Trump administration, Gharibabadi said. To get to that second stage, he laid out an obstacle course including the lifting of sanctions, the end of the US blockade of Iranian ports, the unfreezing of Iranian assets and new commitments on non-belligerence in a process that could last well beyond the midterms.” It also came to me yesterday as I wrote “Which beckons the setting for the midterm, because the military has its own share of democrats and when even one comes across with the actual numbers of all the stockpiles then no longer have, it is the opinion of this small, useless, humble blogger that the Midterms are set to the ‘inaccuracies’ surrounding those statements. A political deal done and it started with the actions surrounding February 28th 2026 and it wasn’t even a leap year.” (see previous article) and I wrote that story 10 hours ago, so I got to the setting of the midterms before the Guardian did, being it for different reasons. And all this gives us that either the United States uses what missiles they have to give Iran a one way ticket to the stone age, as such President Trump has a massive problem and if social media is to be believed, the setting of President Trump comes with prison time after he loses the Midterms. I have no clue if that could even be achieved, but that setting might be a disturbing one. Not for me, he has been massively nasty to Canada, so he would be getting what he deserved.

But as I see it the dangers to the UAE remains and I expect that they have no intent being the target of Iran any longer. As such I agree with the Guardian who gives us “From this perspective, the outcome of this war will not be played out on the battlefield, but at the ballot box. The agency suggested the outcome could affect the course of American domestic and foreign policy for years to come.” And we can all agree with that, because no matter how you see it, the worst case scenario is that Democrats start being nice to Iran, something that is globally unacceptable, still I have no interest looking into the mucky waters called American politics. And that reflecting pool will have its own set of disasters bound by time. So when we look at the end of the Guardian Article, we see “The bigger question is what Iran itself wants to achieve. Agreeing to keep the dispute simmering until November is not an answer to that question – one that Iranians are better at debating than resolving. Pezeshkian, working in alliance with Mohammad Ghalibaf, the chief negotiator, repeatedly says he does not want endless war, and insists that almost all the supreme national security council concur. He still has faith in the MoU, saying it should be the cornerstone of Iran’s foreign policy. But the conservative newspaper Kayhan describes the memorandum as worthless since the US always breaks its commitments. “Accordingly, officials should know that the strait of Hormuz is not a bargaining chip and should not be opened as a passage for America,” it said.”“ The only part I see happening is that price of oil will remain high and as I see it, it will not decrease nowhere near the midterms. That is a setting that the ‘speeches’ of President Trump also needs to bring him and I feel decently safe that the teleprompter will fail and President Trump will state that this was all a conspiracy theory (my turn to make a funny, Prime Minister Carney).

But the stage is not resolved, because as I see it (using the Al Jazeera article) where we see “The conflict has imperilled Saudi Arabia’s oil exports and ambitious development plans, and raises big questions about the reliability of its longstanding US security umbrella. While Turkiye and Pakistan have avoided significant direct attacks, both are anxious to calm regional conflicts that threaten their security and economies. The deal, named the “Mecca Joint Defence Agreement”, follows nearly a year of negotiations. Sealing the agreement in Mecca, the holiest site in Islam, adds symbolic heft to a pact that builds on longstanding bilateral military ties.” As such we see the this deal took the better part of a year to set, which means that this started all before the strikes on Iran started and that is good for the nations, but in that same setting it implies that they have had enough of Iran and I wrote about in on the second of June with “which was based on a 2019 idea on stopping Iran. With blocked harbours Iran becomes the isolated party others needed it to be” (in my article ‘Defeated by the timeline’) since then I added a few military IP’s to my arsenal, because we all have to remains creative at times. But it kinda shows that the UAE needs to evolve its military tactics and not always in a diplomatic way. Because the 537 ballistic missiles and 26 cruise missiles are evidence to that setting and there is a decent chance that the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait were all attacked in the near future and as Iran is a cowardly terrorist state, these nations will face more attacks. The “Mecca Joint Defence Agreement” are likely to keep three nations decently safe, the others might not be that lucky and that requires attention as well. And as I see it, they should not face attacks for the next 12 weeks, because Iran will suddenly play the little crying girl when the Trump danger has been settled and I don’t think that being nice to Iran is going to be an option before 2028, but that is merely me thinking and I think that enough gulf states are on the same page I am currently on. Yet this is not all, Al Jazeera raised a decent part with “Al Jazeera’s Osama Bin Javaid, reporting from the Qatari capital, Doha, said the pact “essentially puts three of the largest Muslim populations together”, marking the beginning of a “different security architecture” in the region.” It might make a large difference, but personally I would have liked that the UAE was included in that deal and with that I possibly show my complete unawareness of Muslim politics, but that might be my weakness in all of this as I am not Muslim. So to all a great day and I am (alas) still 300 minutes away from breakfast.

A breath of fresh air 

This is what happens, at times we get refreshed from some issues that add settled in different ways and the Khaleej Times gave me two of those instances. I was happily refreshed. The first one (at https://www.khaleejtimes.com/uae/uae-investigation-publication-false-report-dubai-explosions) gives us ‘UAE authorities summon news agency officials over false Dubai explosion report’ it comes with the interesting byline “The Attorney-General said that the agency’s decision to withdraw the report and publish an apology does not preclude the continuation of the investigation” I still have to see where this goes, but this setting is refreshing. We get too much populist and digital driven headlines all over the planet and I see too many of them. So seeing this is refreshing to say the least. So as we see “The Attorney-General stated the investigation will determine the respective roles of each individual involved in the different stages of the report. It will also determine the extent to which they complied with legal and professional standards governing the verification of information before its publication” as well as “On Thursday, July 16, the Dubai Media Office confirmed that the Reuters report regarding “explosions” in Downtown Dubai is false. Reuters later issued a statement saying it “regrets” the report and that the story had been retracted the same evening. The agency also confirmed it issued a new report highlighting the Dubai Media Office’s denial. The news agency acknowledged that the report did not meet its standards. Reuters “could not immediately determine where the sounds were coming from or their significance, and did not offer that context,” the statement added.” I see a few issues with the part, but that is merely me and there could be an error in reporting there too. As such it is what it is, but the call by the Attorney-General feels like a breath of fresh air. 

After that we see (at https://www.khaleejtimes.com/business/tech/elon-musks-xai-sues-grok-user-over-sexualized-deepfakes) that ‘Elon Musk’s xAI sues Grok user over sexualized ‘deepfakes’‘ and there is a larger setting there, because this could global and those people weaseling away with “the app made me do it” could quite literally lose their house and their equipment over all this. As such, that 34.2 seconds of fame will come at a massively high price. As such we are given ‘The case is one of the first brought by an AI company against one of its users for allegedly using an AI system to generate explicit material’ with the added “xAI alleged in the lawsuit, filed in federal court in Texas on Tuesday, that Terry Harwood violated the company’s terms of service. The case is one of the first brought by an AI company against one of its users for allegedly using an AI system to generate explicit material. Contact information for Harwood, who was arrested in February, was not immediately available. Spokespeople for xAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Wednesday. The company’s lawsuit against Harwood follows intense global scrutiny of xAI over allegations that Grok has allowed users to generate non-consensual sexualized deepfakes, or realistic-looking videos fabricated by AI.” As such I reckon that there will be a sled full of lawyers going for the jugular of this Terry Harwood and if the news given by the Guardian is to be believed, this was done to images of adults and minors. I wonder how the lawyer of Terry Harwood would be spinning that. I reckon that we have to wait for the court case and the submitted evidence. I reckon that all these hormonal teenagers fabricating a slew of images from all kind of actors and actresses will soon face the music of their parents as these parents will likely see their houses going away to other shores. 

I reckon that this is what the victims of these people will go for, the first rule of torts is to go where the money is and that ends up being the real estate of the parents (in case of minors) but that is speculative thinking. What matters is that with the acts of Elon Musk and xAI is the first step of countering the tidal wave of sexualized deepfakes. 

I feel relief, the first time in over a year that something makes sense to me and there is a larger setting for some publications as well. You see they cannot hide behind “given to use by an anonymous source”, when they publish that and the Grok case bears fruit, the victims can now go after these publications as well, because that is the implied trend with torts. Torts goes to where the money is and the value of people like Jeff Bezos, who has approximately $252,000 million and Rupert Murdoch and family who is allegedly the owner of $24,000 million. I wonder how many class cases they will face in this setting. Time will tell.

Have a great day and look towards the sun wearing sunnies. It is a bright day today.
