What we mentally reject

That is where I am at. People who know me have known that I have always ben on the side of the UAE and I am ready to reject the premise that the Deutsche Welle gives us, but it is not that simple. They give us ‘Iran war turns Dubai into a Ghost city’ and I hate to admit it, but Iran has thrown the hatchet down to the UAE. I would still stand with the UAE and I did by handing the UAE my military IP free of charge (as well as Saudi Arabia) it is yet another example that eradication of Iran is becoming an essential thing. I do not fault them for attacking in retaliation to the US and Israel, these are legitimate targets because of the events that took place, as ‘my’ bible educates me to turn the other cheek, I see that as a legitimate reason to destroy Irans refineries, their harbours and their manufacturing options. Seems merely fair play. However, we can see that the terror vision of Iran is making an impact, that is beside the Bitcoin bitches that ran for their life on day one shouting that their lives were in danger. There is a solution, because these 10 images are direct, but could be made in several ways. To counter one is to create YouTube videos, almost everywhere. Like they did months ago. This time, it could be the UAE population giving us the views in the malls, the sites and the walkthroughs of places, beaches, entertainment sections, malls, Dubai has a population of 4,807,185. These people got somewhere? Why not film these events and make sure that Dubai remains on the video map. In 2024 Abu Dhabi had a population of 4,135,985. Same thing applies here. Last year the tourists were making videos of great places and theme parks. So why aren’t the locals doing that? And the numbers are out there “As of 10 May 2026, the UAE has intercepted and destroyed 551 ballistic missiles, 2,265 drone attacks and 29 cruise missiles fired from Iran” but the important numbers were missing, you see as far as I know less then 1% made is through and only 1% of 1% hit something substantial, which implies that my ‘criminal’ act of jay walking has a better odds of creating a self inflicted issue. I have no real numbers, but the statistics of getting hit in such a way is seemingly a lot less than getting hit by an attack in the UAE from Iran. As such these films should bare out that the UAE (particularly Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah) should be a lot safer that the images make them out to be. Don’t get me wrong, I am all for destroying the infrastructure of Iran, but it seems to be that with a ‘presented’ damage of $600 million a day, it seems to me that doing something about that takes priority. OI reckon that ‘flooding’ YouTube with videos of how sweet life in these places are and optionally setting the same videos to Instagram, TikTok and Rednote (sometimes called Redbook) as such, as we see the ‘statistics’ for TikTok (which is 1.36 billion to 2 billion monthly active users worldwide) and Youtube gives us an approximate of 2.58 billion monthly active users globally. It seems to me that these two alone gives us half the planet. As such there is a reason for Emirati’s to take their camera to the streets. And it seems more ‘pacifistic’ to embrace peace, but I feel a righteous anger to inflict massive damage on the harbours and railways of Iran. The UAE government might even address the knowledge levels of the Emirati’s by making sure that they have the skills to edit and Ill bet you dollars for doughnuts (an American expression I actually love) that the local population might love showing the people on this planet just how lovely theses places are. The idea of teach a population the options of creating excellent video’s on your Android Mobile (yes, I know Apple has its own system, but I am an android person). We can accept the news in Deutsche Welle (which might be absolutely accurate at https://www.dw.com/en/iran-war-turns-dubai-into-a-ghost-city/g-76454537) but we could see these images in another light.

  1. A man sitting sad outside his shop.
  2. Someone browsing the news in a fashion shop.
  3. An empty street at the back of a building. For all I know it was taken behind a building on Al Marabea’ St.
  4. A shot of an empty beach, the UAE which could have been taken at 06:00 (when most people are emulating saw machines, aka snoring)

I am not saying that this is what happening, but it could be. These images might harm tourism as well, but the alternative is to go to the United States, an option much less appealing. I still have great hope that I could spend a few hours floating on a tube down the Al Raha River (it is a very nice idea). I think it is important to counter the article in the Deutsche Welle and I am not saying that the article is a lie, but at present there isn’t anything showing us detailed views of what is happening and when the tourists stay away, we will not see a lot of videos on the locations and subjects. As such I think it is a good idea to show food courts, foods, like the options in AlBaik Dubai Mall (also on my bucket list) If there is nothing, people start speculating in every direction. When we see a mall filled with people (with 4,807,185, at least 1% goes to the Dubai mall, meaning that there are at least 48000 people in the Dubai mall in a day. So why aren’t we shown that? And I say that these videos would trump the millions that Iran is throwing away, we can still deal with their infrastructure on a video break, as the expression would go.

And as idea go, I don’t think it is the worst idea to have.

I reckon I am giving the Emirati’s something to this about today and as it is just past 5PM, plenty of Emirati’s are likely out and about to have tea, coffee, ice creams and other snacks (I apologise for not knowing what times mosques are to be attended).

Have a great day today.

Off topic

There was an advertisement I saw (I think it was in LinkedIn) and it grabbed me to some extent. It was an advertisement to get a job at Claude walking of kids shows. It was an idea that has merit and more over, the implications. Could be a lot further than a kid show (but you have to start somewhere) Now I have said over and over aging that ll AI is fake. But most of these graphical fake AI are working on the premise of DML (Deeper Machine Learning) and at times in conjunction with LLM (Large Language Models) it does not make it AI (or even Fake AI) but it becomes a tool with applications and a growing setting of traction. I softly spoke of it in ‘Fat of the meat’ two days ago (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/11/02/fat-of-the-meat/) moreover, I thought it might give my scripts a new life as such it goes beyond kids shows. And the application could go towards Saudi Arabia and the UAE as these productions could be made in local languages. Or with subtitles. Another setting that could spell life for some scripts. At present I have two ready and the working setting to two more. As such I would contemplate this (if it could work on a MAC) a whole range of traction that Claude could gain. They seem to be heading in that direction anyway and when these scripts are absent of a lot of production costs, the setting increases, because when a production has a lack of overhead, there are a lot more people easily swayed to give it a chance. I am not hijacking away actors, not special effects as they script was at first rejected. But I also see that there are thousands of rejected scripts. Some might be actually good and now a new terrain (optionally with Oscars) is created. As such, why am I (likely the only one) considering this? Perhaps the makers of Claude are already on that page, they merely lack the settings to make it work.

As I see it, it is also a setting that takes Hollywood away from that equation, and as such studios in Canada, the EU, the Commonwealth and the Arabian peninsula could seek such a solution. There is a field and it is (as far as I can tell) rejected in favor of short term ideas. The idea is however a field that has a larger implementation in TV, Shows and all kinds of directions, from Music Clips and short term videos. All directions that could benefit from those direction. And that is even before we get to the adult entertainment, because there are options there too. All directions that could bring a possibility of revenue, and isn’t that the golden standard in any business? And from there we get the added benefit that it could be remade in any other language almost instantly. And make no mistake, I am talking into my own directions. Because some might ‘worry’ of a script that scares the Jiminy Cricket out of Anne Keast-Butler (GCHQ), John Ratcliffe (CIA) and General Joshua M. Rudd (NSA) but these ‘actors’ are in the clear when they are made with Claude. It opens up a whole range of ideas and ‘shortcuts’ And there is a benefit. As the library of locations are added, the end cost goes down and we could get the three ‘leaders’ digitized and change some facial features that they do not look alike (whilst everyone knows who we are talking about) and as far as I can tell there is a lot more surfacing soon enough. There was my script on ‘How to assassinate a politician’ it has the secondary title ‘Essay’ which played in Dammam (Saudi Arabia), Amsterdam and the Hague (Netherlands) now consider these costs of that series and if Claude could manage it ‘lifelike’ enough, how much costs will it be then? And that is how new studios are created in new ways, because several corporations just dumped thousands of IT people, all ready to learn new skills. Then there is ‘Information Overload’, a simple attempt to give the ‘rulers’ of the CIA, NSA, GCHQ and the DGSE a new for of nightmare (you can’t blame me for that) but that gives us two stories that have merit towards that setting and I reckon that Hollywood have thousands of scripts that never saw the daylight, but now there is a new revenue stream and as too many people respect money above ethics, I think that we have a new playing field and those who enter first have the best chance to make a decent penny (read: Dollar, Pound, or Euro) I reckon that there is a lot of Swedish appeal to make a new Pippi Longstocking, in Swedish no less and if that appeals several other languages would come forward.

So think of this as Off Topic, because the midterms in the USA are too boring, not for the Democrats, but this was the only outcome that would have made sense and for now they will need over a decade to clean up the mess that was left behind and they are doing it without allies, that part was taken care of by the present administration. So, I look at other ways to set revenue towards nicer shores and this administration of the United States that any shore is nicer than the shores of the United States and as I see it, there are options for Canadian movie makers as well.

So have a great day and consider where you might find another path to revenue.

What was that word?

There is a word that is usually ‘connected’ to shortcomings. Or perhaps more ‘clinical’ is the explanation “the amount by which something is less than what is required, expected, or earned” and it can take many forms. In humor (the kind that Jimmy Carr uses), “I aided my partner in assisted suicide. I threw her in a wood chipper, she was too scared to do that herself”, and depending on that nations laws, assisted suicide is accepted. Then we get less than was expected “That pinky thingy is nothing like the  nine inches you promised me”, which can have all kinds of reasons and there is less then earned which we get from Money.CA (at https://money.ca/news/economy/us-tourism-deficit-canada-travel-bill) where we see ‘First U.S. tourism deficit since 1999 hits nearly US$14B — and Trump’s trade representative now backs a bill to entice Canadians back’,  US bill to entice Canadians back? This I have to see. Even the Baron Munchausen couldn’t weave a story that enticing and that man has experience weaving stories. So as we are given “The U.S. travel sector ran a trade deficit of nearly US$14 billion last year as millions of Canadian travelers took their vacations elsewhere. It was the sector’s first deficit since data collection began in 1999, according to a report from Democrats on Congress’s Joint Economic Committee cited by Nevada Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto.” You see over a year ago in ‘Honey and ladders’ (https://lawlordtobe.com/2025/07/05/honey-and-ladders/) I gave the world (the world that reads why blog) ““Amid the president’s immigration crackdown, travel bans and sweeping global tariffs, the U.S. is expected to be the only one out of 184 countries to see foreign visitor spending fall in 2025, according to the World Travel and Tourism Council.” With the addition of “The study suggests that the U.S. economy is on track to lose $12.5 billion in international spending this year alone – but the actual shortfall might be much greater.”” So I gave that over a year ago and now we see that the first tourism deficit hits nearly $14B, I think I called that rather neat over a year ago and I reckon that until deep into 2035 that is not change, the deficits will come and come and come. So now we get “Now, Washington D.C. is trying to lure those travelers back. Last July, U.S. Trade Rep. Jamieson Greer told a Senate committee he’d fully support a bipartisan bill aimed at boosting travel with Canada and Mexico. He agreed the decline in tourism is problematic and would support the proposal “100%,” according to the Las Vegas Sun.” Apart from the fact that I personally see Jamieson Greer to be part of the problem and not of any solution, but that might be my shortsighted part in this. So whilst we get that “A travel trade deficit means Americans spent more on trips abroad than international visitors spent in the U.S. The U.S. ran a travel surplus in 2024, but in 2025 it flipped to a multibillion-dollar deficit. Canadians were a major part of that decline. In 2025, Canadian-resident return trips from the U.S. fell 25.4%, according to Statistics Canada (StatCan). That capped an 11-month streak of year-over-year declines the agency calls the deepest and most sustained on record outside the pandemic. Leisure visits to the U.S. dropped 21.5%, or 3.2 million visits, and Canadians’ spending on U.S. trips fell by CA$3.3 billion to CA$18.8 billion.” I think that the main reasons comes much closer to home. That person labelled the Clown of the United States (no idea who they are talking about) comes with 51st state mentions, calling Canadian exploiters, all whilst the trouble is south of the Canadian borders and Mexicans agree, in summer, Canada is a friendly place (in winter too, but they find solid water weird and hinkey. To each their own I say and I get that Mexico do not appreciate clothing they can only wear on vacation. Luckily for me I never have to because even as a hockey fan our water tends to be fluidic at best (more a Summer Mcintosh than a Brooke Mcintosh element) but that is the limitation we work with and to be honest even as a non-swimmer I could (hopefully) best Brooke Mcintosh in water with her skates on. And lastly we see “There are practical hurdles too: Canadians who stay in the U.S. longer than 30 days must now register with the U.S. government.” I wonder if it is just Canadians or all visitors, because in the age of data centers the bulk of the people in the Commonwealth, EU and for that matter Asian and the gulf states as well, are not to fond of handing their data to the United States, especially if they are merely on vacation. Then there is the Bond issue Consular officers determine the required bond amount—$10,000, $15,000, or $20,000—at the time of the visa interview and we can do so much with that money, like buy a complete Mac Pro in the UAE (as it is a zero tax country) for that matter and their visas are around $75 for 30 days. And as tourism is becoming a killer aspect, any trip to the United States should score ultra low on anyones agenda, especially as the quality of fun of a trip to Abu Dhabi and Dubai could outdo whatever the United States hands you. In the entire article, I merely have one setting that I do not agree with “Canadians continue to have a strong appetite for travel, but they’re being thoughtful about where they go and how they spend their money,” she said. “The United States remains an important destination for winter getaways, cruises and visits with family and friends.” The element visit family and friends remain, the rest is doubtful. Europe has plenty of winter getaways and some say (I have never been on any winter vacation) that the French Alps are to be experienced to be believed. Which is fine, but two years ago, most of those fields were a little absent of snow. There are those who think that Canada is the exquisite experience but there I must be cautious, because he queues around mount Whistler (somewhere north of Vancouver) are a little bit of a downer and then there is China who has its snow fields, it has several and I merely mention one of them “Chongli (Hebei Province), The co-host zone for the winter games near Beijing, featuring major infrastructure at resorts like Wanlong Ski Resort, Genting, and Thaiwoo” (source: skiresort.info) as said, I have never been on a winter vacation although I have been sort of Skiing in Switzerland and Sweden (but I keep to ‘sort of’) because my knowledge on these contraptions could be measured with a thimble.

Here is one in case you are unaware what that is.

Well, so whilst we see (some with humour) that the United States is going in deficit more and more, as such it will teach them to call my Canadian brethren part of the 51st state and a few less appealing things. And as a premium effort, let me introduce Canadians to the options of the UAE, in particular Abu Dhabi and Dubai, which could both be seen as they are a mere hour away from one another. I would advice to stay in Abu Dhabi with all its parks and entertainment and take the train 2-3 times because Dubai is a place to see for yourself. Feel free to doubt me, but there are loads of videos on both places on YouTube, so see for yourself. Never believe any source without looking at the evidence and a vacation wherever you go is still capturing your fee time, as such you should see what you are in for. And for Canadians there is a bonus. It is Visa-Free Entry for Canadians. You receive a 90-day visa on arrival free of charge, which can be used within a 180-day period (either continuously or across multiple visits), that beats US travels on an expensive bond any day of the week and that is how the United States priced themselves out of a tourism race. Its like watching a Chevrolet Chevette Diesel going up against that dinkey toy that Lewis Hamilton drives (I think it is a Ferrari Rocher) but I think my point comes across nicely. I thought the American version was too Crass (entering a gunfight with a blackjack) So you have a great day all and in good taste like all Commonwealthians say “Lets add to the deficit of the United States” they earned it.

Have a great day today, as it is Halloween.

Not the 7 dwarves

So, Mining (dot com dot AU) give us a few hours ago that ‘Canada-UAE pact broadens critical minerals access’, as such that is good news for Canada and optionally making the employment  lines reasonably shorter. But the working together between Canada and the UAE also means that (according to France Pinzon) “The Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), signed on 27 October, will eliminate or reduce tariffs on more than 99% of current Canadian exports to the UAE. It is also intended to address non-tariff barriers and establish more predictable trade and investment conditions. The agreement is expected to enter into force in 2027, subject to the countries completing their respective approval processes” it is just another setting where the world is giving a clear signal that in these matters the United States is no longer a party of interest to them and Canada is playing right not these settings for the people of Canada (aka Canadians) but it goes deeper. Canada has its ire minerals and the UAE just got a real deal whilst ‘some’ (we will not go into who) has its own tariff tables and Canada is giving the UAE a deal where Canadian are mostly nullified and in some cases severely reduced. This opens up all kinds of investments for the UAE. And in that trend we see that “The UAE has also committed to invest up to US$50 billion ($71 billion) in Canada across industries including mining, energy, and AI, according to Reuters. The agreement forms part of Canada’s broader push to expand its critical-minerals relationships in the Middle East. In July, Canada and Saudi Arabia announced more than C$1 billion ($1.08 billion) in commercial agreements spanning mining and other sectors, as reported by Mining.com.au.” As such, the message is clear. No matter how some are advertising their place as a big beautiful country, others see this differently and seek deals elsewhere, which was the only thing that PM Mark Carney needed to hear and this is a near fact now (and the ink of the agreement is still drying). And as we are being told “The UAE agreement builds on an investment protection pact that entered into force in May and an earlier commitment to pursue cooperation across responsible critical-minerals value chains”, which, as I see it makes perfect sense and in light of the projects that the UAE is developing (an example is Abu Dhabi where it is developing a $1.4 billion lithium-processing facility and driving demand for high-performance materials like neodymium oxide and dysprosium oxide to support aerospace, electric mobility, and clean energy under Operation 300bn.) so there would be space for Canadian miners and engineers to be deployed in the near future, as such (as noted by the BBC) “Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s economic platform focuses on reducing reliance on U.S. trade, fast-tracking major infrastructure projects, and reforming domestic industries”, so whilst we were given 9 hours ago ‘Building Canada Strong for the Next Ten Years’, it seems that Prime Minister Carney didn’t waste a second on that and this setting alone could be the start of the aforementioned “The UAE has also committed to invest up to US$50 billion ($71 billion) in Canada across industries including mining, energy, and AI, according to Reuters.”

So unlike that politician in the United States who makes claims (like defeating Iran 60 times), the

Canadian Prime minister is showing results and as I see it, this deal is as important for Canada as it is for the UAE. A real partnership (as I see it), a true Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement. I wonder what will happen next, because this is showing a real promise in the EU, the Commonwealth and China and there is no way these places will let this slide by without giving it the attention it deserves. Because that shows the increased enablement of Abu Dhabi and that will show its economic benefits a few times over. Its like ringing the bell saying, we have a larger ability to work, play and live and that is a very enticing prospect for anyone looking for a job. And personally I wonder why (better state ‘if’) Australia is making gains on a partnership in this with PM Mark Carney, because I am Australian and it would make sense for the Commonwealth to work together on these projects. Not that Canada has any commitment other than the Canadian people. The idea that there is a second tier in this, keeping more away from the United States tends to make sense of this. But the is merely my thoughts on the matter.

No matter what happens, as I see it Canada has this win squarely in its hands and we should cheer for our Canadian brethren (but that might merely be me). Have yourself a wonderful day today.

The preamble to psychosis

There has been a way of thinking induced. It started when I was focusing on two scripts. It wasn’t that I ‘needed’ to write both, more that the setting of a stage was required. This happens. I let my mind wander and waver until something clicks. Then at some point I was considering the reasons for psychosis. I am (apparently) unaware of its settings. Then my mind started to play with combinations psycho sociopath versus a sociopathic psycho. And I went from there. But then an idea came to me. Not for the two scrips, but it might be an idea for one of them, an episode out of these thoughts. Still, the ideas came calling.

In this idea the character was moving and the first thing he encounters is that his computer is stolen, but he sees the thief and from there he goes on a killing spree. His killing game show so to speak. So he goes on a murder bender, killing the thief in a rage and removing the evidence, although the rage seemed real, it was his way to show the world that he was out of control, but it only seemed that way. His methods are too calculating and too precise, which is why the police isn’t focussing on him. Then he sees what was connected and he goes deeper and deeper into that maze. And whilst we see that ‘maze’ we see the elements of jealousy and envy so whilst he is confronted with the want of something that belongs to him and their fear of losing something that already was the main character. In this he continues his killing spree, a spree that frightens the people behind the thief, their envy becomes apparent but their fear is checked by their greed and that drives the point along. And in my mind, the idea is that their fear of death will push them to betray the people that least deserved to be betrayed and that might give a link to (I won’t call them) organized crime (unless they wield a PDA or a Filofax) but this setting is one that drives several options to the surface and hills, I like where this is heading, it is merely one episode in that tale and in the other setting I am not of a clear mind, but the other one needs to go in a different direction, because the ‘American’ way of ‘adjusting’ the same idea in several paths is not the real deal of any storyteller. Perhaps those with the mere focus of making money, but that is where the ‘Hollywood’ strain comes in.

As there are other options Canada, Saudi Arabia, UAE (both Dubai and Abu Dhabi) are the settings for the next generation of storytellers and as storyteller we have to look where the markets are. And even if I struck out with my first script (me looking somewhat sad), I still have arrows in the quiver, or is that a script in my quill? Although my quill has a keyboard and a screen I can till call it whatever I like, it is mine to name it.

But as we name our tools, we tend to limit its potential. Don’t ask me why, it merely is that way. So from parchment with quill we went to ballpoint and paper then a typewriter and paper and from there we went to computers, laptops, tablets and so on, but at every step we lost something along the way as writing went faster, we forced our brains to go faster and I don’t think it always held up to what the writer wanted it to be. As we gained time to ‘write’ faster, we lost time to think and that is where it all happens in these gray cells, that is where our stories started, not on paper or on screen, in our minds. And whilst we consider what we gain in speed, we lost creativity against time and that is the conundrum and even I see this, no matter how fast the idea evolve in my brain. I realise that the time gained is lost into a second or even a third thinking over the idea I had.

And there we see the preamble, an introduction of events that comes before the formally formed writing or even the written action to explain its purpose and optional background. The is the setting and I let set this to a more direct setting. The Iliad is an ancient Greek epic poem containing 15,693 lines divided into 24 books. But how long did it take to write it? I cannot find anything stating that, merely that it was written around 762 BC. The is as good as it gets and compare this to the 28 verified deals across the year (with some industry tallies tracking roughly 19 to 23 core summer/seasonal milestones), but how many scripts were offered? Some say 20000-25000, I honestly have no idea. But in this stage where we see so many scripts making the rounds. How many are honestly originals? I can’t tell if mine is original. I personally think so, but the idea that someone had a similar idea is not out of the realm of possibilities. As such I put parts of my scripts online, it gives a timeline of originality (or so I believe it does). And as I am contemplating more settings (which beats the stories on politics of today) and in some aspects the warmongering I have, because that at least comes with the grounds of originality. And we all admire originality in ourselves and in others. It is the beginning of innovation. And whilst we see the need for innovation, some are merely in it for the money (those numbers with a preceding $) and whilst we can accept that, I have a lessened need for that, this is why I gave the ideas I had on dealing with Iran to both Saudi Arabia and the UAE, they can see if it works for them and as such I will have done my duty as a person.

Perhaps I will gain some out of it, but it is not my goal (still it is nice to get some) and whilst it is not the main setting, the idea is to make it part of my story is still an added part of it. Why matters is that more people are looking into their options to stop players like Iran in ways I never considered. I optionally took out the railway systems, the harbours and a few other settings (like refineries). They are merely optional settings but someone else who could have had chemical degrees (My chemistry knowledge is massively below par) could have found a way to poison the oil. My limited setting is merely set to add yellowcake (no idea how to put my hands on that, or if it would even work) to the oil, irradiating it all and making that mix useless for generations (as well as spending billions in separating the two). There are likely a lot more options (I reckon the members of the Pentagon never earned their stripes), and that is merely a thought coming to mind and optionally the start of another setting for an episode. And I do like to surprise my self, just this day I surprised myself wth a slice of Tiramisu, best surprise ever (they ran out of Black Forest cake).

So time to think of a few other settings and hopefully Final Draft works out their copy/paste problem, so I can set at least a few more options to ‘actual script’ Have a great day.

Old IP

This happens at times. I go over old IP I created and see what I might have missed, or something that could be added. So as I went over the ‘turmoil’ the real estate find itself in I Dubai and Abu Dhabi. I decided to look what more could be done. As such in the old days I created this IP and considering that at that time that the Real Estate was great, the impact I could deliver (at a mere 1% addition) is that this would bring an additional Dh680 million to the table and if this is at a mere 1%, the fruits are dangling for all to see. So what was the station?

A repeater gets placed in the house for sale, this repeater has space for a mere USB-C and it could be housing a Lightbox ad (via Google ads). It is a mere container holding pictures, pdf and a map segment, but that is all that is required and from there the house is put up for sale. They can still do the old stuff (newspapers and sorts), this is merely the additional setting and the materials should already be made. So, when the repeater is activated, Google Maps will show this location for sale. 

In Google Maps, the people can look at houses for sale and that house now shows up for sale. What is more, if the person is within 2 km of the place, the icon will allow for the materials to be downloaded. An option for instant sales settings and the pipeline for that place is filled. Now, not all people who download the stuff are buyers, some are mere browsers, but every location comes with a firm that someone could fill out and that could also be automated. As such all the sales talk are optionally obsolete and from meeting to sales might now be mere hours and the repeater works 24/7, so the evenings are autofilled by people who were looking to get into a place easy enough. It shortens the sales trajectory (as people will look when they have time) and from there you get a much quicker route and optionally there is still some things to do, but the is real estate for you. A simple setting that newspapers and websites don’t cover. People went to be in the place they might want to live and that is the setting a newspaper usually cannot deliver. And that is the additional benefit from a place like Google Maps could offer. And when the property is sold, you pick up that repeater to a new location with a new USB-C card and you go on with another portfolio.

And the money is excellent, if a 1% addition comes down to Dh680 million, what do you think 10% will get you? And this is not merely Dubai and/or Abu Dhabi. Consider that these settings are transferable to London, Paris, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, Sydney, Melbourne, Riyadh, Cairo and a whole range of places where international travelers are looking. In the setting I have no idea how this goes over in New Delhi, Calcutta, Beijing, Tokyo and a few other places. But that is the setting I initially saw on January 26th 2025 when I wrote ‘Saturation’ (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2025/01/26/saturation/) and I revisited the idea on April 12th this year when I was watching these Bitcoin bitches panic (at https://lawlordtobe.com/2026/04/12/are-estates-real/) on “the dream is over” and more of this ridiculous stances all whilst they feel empowered in their opinions by adding an image of a line chart (with an arrow on the left) and an image of HRH Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. But there is more to being clever with Adobe’s photoshop. The story needs to make sense and it never did. But not to worry I can always hand the UAE additional revenue and this is one setting none of them thought of and if they can get Google on board by addressing the not to be trivialized Sundar Pichai. That story goes a lot further and by adding London, Paris, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, Sydney, Melbourne, Riyadh, Cairo, New Delhi, Calcutta, Beijing, Tokyo, Monte Carlo it gets a refined international vibe and I should add The Hague and Amsterdam as well, as there is nothing more international than adding Herrings, unions and a helping of cheese to that picture. 

And I reckon that played like Damac always wake up it there are additional percentages to be made, especially if they had not considered these before. And Damac is but one player wen you see the cities you’ll see that real estate could be a massive handle on the entire setting. So, did you consider why I wrote about it in 2025 and in almost 2 years no-one saw this revenue floating around? Just asking.

Have a great day.

TradeDelicious

Yes, a difficult word and not one I understand all the time, that blissful feeling that oozes over me comes with a shortage and it is shared by all with a weak understanding of economy (not something that happens to people like Mark Carney), but I (the one and only) an at times blissfully ignorant of the economic condition. As such, at times, I fear that ‘weakness’, but I do not fear being weak on this, as such I try to keep awake (as like, not sleeping) on the economic condition. And I was ‘made’ aware of an article in TradingView by the headline ‘Michael Burry Warns Microsoft, Amazon and Oracle Could Face AI Write-Off Shock’ where we see “Burry said net capital investment by S&P 500 companies reached 2.07% of GDP at June 30, a level he described as the highest in nearly four decades outside the period following the 2000 Nasdaq peak. He estimated that Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOG) (GOOGL), Meta (META) and Oracle (ORCL) have about $3 trillion in commitments and other exposures linked to AI infrastructure, including leases, construction projects and purchase obligations.” So, whilst we also see that these are the firms that ‘eloquently’ dismiss staff members all over the globe, the idea that 5 firms have over 3000 billion invested on fake AI settings (my personal view) is a little too shaky to consider and that needs to be taken into consideration. You see, I don’t care about Microsoft, they did this to their self, but I am concerned about Google and Oracle. They are the massive backbone of larger IT. And they are firms where I would have liked to have been part of and part of me still are. I deliver support and customer care and as such I believe that these two firms are part of what most of us really like. But I also see that if support and customer care diminish in these two parts of IT, customer care will really falter on a near global foundation and as such places like TradingView are making me aware of hardship coming our way and don’t take the words of Satya Nadella as some kind of gospel. A little less than 15 hours ago he basically proclaimed “Nadella thinks the AI industry is too self-obsessed to explain why anyone else should care. “I think we are way too self-obsessed as an industry about, look at us, how glorious we are,” he tells me. His prescription is to let the people using AI speak to its benefits and demonstrate that it creates economic opportunity for workers and the communities hosting data centers. More pronouncements from tech CEOs won’t do it: “Any amount that I say or any one of us say is not good enough anymore, I feel.””, I say that anyone claiming that a fake setting is glorious, I have said so again and again. And the ‘doubt’ (brought like a second hand car salesman in a championship voice) will not cut it and the people are figuring this out, right now, the world is figuring out that that AI is a sliding scale whilst more and more are realizing that this is over a decade away, so that issue with Trust is a hidden trap. He, in the near past stated that he “envisions a future where enterprises manage millions of AI agents working alongside human staff”, really? Microsoft cut more than 15,000 jobs across two major rounds in 2025 to reallocate resources toward massive artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure investments and 4800 jobs in 2026. That is massive and the claim that “An autonomous “always-on” digital teammate running on cloud servers that can work 24/7 without waiting for a prompt. Users assign it a name, role, and goal to track project decisions, watch channels, remind colleagues, and manage multi-step workflows” I reckon he got that ‘Always on’ from Don Mattrick and you know what happened there. It basically costed him the entire gaming branch Microsoft ones had and now that is basically gone. And then for the longest time he ‘proclaimed’ that “Microsoft and industry research project that more than 1.3 billion AI agents will be in operation across global business systems by 2028” and whilst we can see that 1.3 million (a 0.1% part is coming true, the idea that the 99.9% comes within the next 14 months is laughable to say the least. It is predictive speculation (which is nothing like predictive analytics) and he better adjust his point of view and I saw that even before he made that claim. I speculatively am considering that he has been sniffing the Microsoft glue too much. So as we all take notice of this, we also see that people Like Oracle have been footing the hardware and software bill and the makes sense, because no matter how I see things, even in predictive analytics, whomever holds the hardware and software will become undisputed rules of that field and that is where I see Oracle going, as such “Oracle has cut approximately 21,000 jobs globally (about 13% of its workforce) over the past year as part of a major corporate restructuring to fund massive investments in artificial intelligence (AI) and data center infrastructure” (source: BBC) makes little sense. In all earnest, if people are to embrace the data centre vibe, Oracle needs more, not less people. Because all these dim witted  IT population out there needs to come massively aware of the shortcomings of data centres and with that the people who are learning that trinary beats binary in that field will take massive undertaking and even as Oracle is one of two players to be aware of that (Snowflake will be the other one) we can see that the world will undergo changes and massive ones. As such I felt that my ‘expertise’ in training, tech support and customer care would be my asset when all this hit and that current population of ‘yay’ sayers will undo itself in a haze of confusion when the world gets the setting that they had been betting on the wrong horses all along. It basically would set me up for a better job in the currently near future in Canada, the UAE, EU or other commonwealth places. Because the truth is that when people are figuring this out, the people they fired at Oracle will be worth their weight in gold and I feel that I would be on the ‘good’ stack of people discarded a little too soon and the was making me happy. 

So to see the View of TradingView where we also see “Burry expects investment to keep rising and said write-downs could emerge around 2028 or 2029 if AI capacity exceeds demand. He compared the current spending cycle with the late-1990s telecom buildout, when heavy investment was followed by excess capacity, weaker returns and substantial depreciation. He also questioned Oracle’s treatment of customer prepayments and cited rising financing concerns surrounding its large data-center projects.” But consider that he states that “when heavy investment was followed by excess capacity, weaker returns and substantial depreciation” comes with shortage of staff and the ‘figment’ setting of 1.3 billion AI agents. The pure waters will require tens of thousands of support staff, because when that part goes, the global customer care and customer support stations will be empty of people and anyone not ready there will be requiring that group of people to be fought over and quite hard. And in all this, no one is looking at the requirement of IBM at that setting and it will acquire as many ex-Oracle staff as they can for the mere need of support for its IBM Bob (basically the IBM Watson AI branch) coding agents and that shortage needs to be filled up fast, because as we are given “IBM Bob Powers Faster Innovation, Higher Productivity & Modern App Development. IBM Bob Accelerates Development by Automating Complex, Time‑Consuming Works. Earlier Risk Detection. 100K+ visits in past month” Yes, there is a market for those who are putting in the time and the hours and that is where (at present) IBM will surpass all others and whilst I hate to see that Oracle is to be surpassed, they did this to themselves. But as I see it, the market is ruled by those who steered firm and clear past the ‘AI BS’ that the world is drowning in and IBM is one of the few who seemingly did this. So whilst Oracle, Amazon and Google will require strong readjustments before 2027 cones to an end, they will feel the heartache (preceding their own upcoming coronary) and I felt that as I took all settings of training, customer care and technical support in strides, feel that I am in a really kosher place. Whether this is in Mississauga, Abu Dhabi, Sydney or Stockholm. I felt that I would end OK is a pretty cool feeling and as I see it, Oracle and IBM are pretty good bosses to end up with. So I saw that other who saw this too, because they were actively hiring the fired Oracle staff members and that is fine with me. There is a whole world that will scream “Who can we hire?” And I am merely listening to the sound web for the right signals. And that is more than all he wrote. And the ‘end’ quote on “The remarks center on future capital intensity, with the impact depending on how quickly AI demand develops relative to new capacity.” Sounds right, but it is not. Well, perhaps for Michael Burry it either is or might be, but the larger setting is that whoever have the stuff to guide whatever the larger population of IT sweeps need, the stronger that firm will be and I reckon that Snowflake is in a decent place and IBM soon will be and after that I hope that Oracle reattaches the needs it has, but the others? They will become canon fodder and consider that someone (not saying who ;-)) claimed that someone claimed that 1.3billion AI agents are doing the work in 2028 and then fires over 20,000 people and leave someone to rehires and retrains them was a little of his game. But when you rely on your own marketing to tell you the story, that is where you are heading. But that is merely my own (and optionally wrong setting). So whilst I am ‘considered’ the false prophet and I have been stating the same thing for over 5 years, all whilst the ‘adjusting impressionable’ influencers adjusted their own story each and every wave and I am still in the setting that this AI (or super intelligence) is still over a decade away, all whilst my setting of advocated predictive analytics is now shown to be a correct view is now accepted by the IT community at large is the stage you should be considering and Michael Burry is seeing a different part, but this adjustment of over 3 trillion is coming and whoever is caught in that wake will face serious considerations and whilst I am still dreaming of a nice apartment in Mississauga or Toronto is seeing where the power will soon reside, is showing a massive setting that might come with hard work, but I reckon that these places will prefer a person who saw this in the first place instead of a YAY sayer who is adjusting their view for the umpteenth time is feeling like the proper boss to work for. 

So as I see it, my time of cakes, putting and a nice warm living room is about to see the light of near luxury. And it merely took my smarts, which is what any Uni graduate will like from the get go. Have a great day all.

Where the dogs sleep

That is a setting that might be true to the stage and to the setting, but are the settings pointing this out? That is the stage as I see it, but am I right? If you think you are a critical thinker, that should be a top-of-mind situation. So whilst we see ‘Saudi Arabia intercepts wave of Houthi missiles as oil climbs to one-week high’ and we are given “The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen said the missiles were aimed at Taif and the Yanbu area on the Red Sea, the main alternative route for Saudi oil” we need to see that this comes at the same time as “Oil prices climbed about 3%, but trade was volatile and prices came off session highs after reports the US and Iran discussed reopening the strait of Hormuz.” And it gives me a thought. Are the Houthis nothing more than the cheap harlots of Iran? The second thought that is coming to me is “How are the Houthis supplied?” And yes we might point the finger at Hezbollah, but that would be too easy. Iran will do what it can to lessen stress on their own smugglers, but at the same time we take notice of “While claiming that their blockade only applies to Saudi shipping and there remains no threat to commercial shipping on the Red Sea, the Houthis have also warned other nations not to get involved.” A clear signal to the UK to not get involved. And I have had it with these terrorists. A signal needs to be given and I believe that a union between China and the EU might be essential for this, with a clear setting. Iran can sell its oil to China (at a discount) but if they do not seize their actions the hint for the three terrorist organisations (Houthi, Hezbollah and Hamas) will open in earnest and we will give any intelligence to stomp these terrorists down with the help of Mossad. And the second thing we do is to utterly destroy 10 refineries in Iran so they are left with one exploit, selling their raw oil to China and if they are left with this one option, Iran doesn’t get to set the price, China does. I feel perfectly fine testing my new IP on Bandar Abbas, its harbours and the railroads. This is what true horror looks like, not some orange person threatening, but a nameless civil person actually destroying what they hold dear. That is what true horror implies. It is not the one boasting, it is the silent person in a corner taking out whatever you desire. 

So, is that a clear message?
As I see it, too much media is holding out for that scrappy bit of paper, holding out for revenue, but news is not revenue, it is in part art in part deciding the best way to bring the new, not bring it in a setting that makes the most money and it is like that in gaming. The BI people in gaming do what THEY see as the most profitable setting and then they get influencers to state that hoping they can get enough gamers around to THEIR way of thinking, but gamers are like inventors, we see a niche and we use that to set a new chart, a new course and we go with this and I am in support of Saudi Arabia, I do what will solve their issues, not the issues of a broke United States, a needy Houthi Terrorist or a desperate Iran (and its IRGC). And as we see “Riyadh’s foreign ministry said on Friday that Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan would hold an urgent meeting of their chiefs of staff ‌to ‌discuss ways to ‌support repel the Houthi attacks under their joint ‌defence agreement. Under the defence pact, all three countries agreed that an armed attack on any one of them would be treated as an attack on all three. Officials in Pakistan are said to be deeply worried about being dragged into the never-ending war unfolding across the Middle East.” As I see it Pakistan hopped for some free publicity not seeing what Iran was up to and there is no never-ending war, just destroy Iran and the others fall back into place, they fear doing this alone and the hardware from Iran has been helping them, take that away and their lust for need and greed falls away quite fast. In that setting the United States could have helped by destroying any Iranian ships hading into the Gulf of Aden and searching every other vessel on that course. I reckon that an observation post on Socotra might assist in this. It would also fuel the setting if Eritrea is as innocent as it proclaims because there is still the thought that Houthis might pay top dollar on anything coming from the Sudan and whilst some players might divert 20% from the Sudan to pay for the 80% heading there, it is in my eyes simple presumption and I react to evidence, not to speculative thoughts. And wasn’t it Gibbs (NCIS) that told us ‘Trust but verify’, I knew this decades before that series launched, but it is never a bad thing to reassess early thoughts there might have been in the mix.

So whilst the international community might react to “Yemen’s internationally recognised government pressed world leaders on Thursday for help defeating the militants, saying that their new perch along one of the world’s busiest waterways presents an international economic risk.” But as I see it 95% of the pain that Yemen is experiencing comes from Iran and whilst we are ‘given’ “Iran is currently facing severe, compounding internal pressures driven by an acute economic collapse, historic political transitions, and escalating public unrest. Following the massive disruptions of the 2026 military conflict with the U.S. and Israel, including the assassination of long-time Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the ruling establishment is struggling to maintain domestic control amid an unprecedented erosion of its legitimacy” and there is another option there. China could influence that setting by installing a China based Iranian government. The world will see a decrease in escalations, the Gulf States will allow for this as the attack on them will seize (Qatar might not like this), but the rest will and whilst China gets the oil there it will look better for China in a whole range of ways. In this setting China gets an optional voice n OPEC (and OPEC plus) all whilst the attack stop on Saudi Arabia and the UAE, so they are likely happy and with Houthi no longer getting supplies from Iran there is another release of pressures on Saudi Arabia. As I see it the population of Iran might like this too, as the old political powerpoint are removed, the people of Iran could actually work on THEIR future. 

I tend to see only upsides in this and whilst there are likely negative sides, they might not be seen as significant as the other pressure points fall away. 

Look at me, I created a viable solution toward overthrowing the current Iranian government. I am feeling kinda proud of that. 

So, you can think what you want (and be massively against my ideas), but look at the price of fuel, what caused this? (Disregarding the orange peril to the world) and it might also fuel the solutions in Hamas and Hezbollah, because when they no longer get access to weapons and funds, they will be on their last moments of existence. You see, you might think that you know where the dogs sleep, but the danger isn’t that, it is what happens when eve one wakes up. Its ‘yap’ wakes up the others and that is where the problems start.  A simple setting that von Clausewitz gave us (I tend to prefer Sun Tzu in most matters) “Non-state militant groups do not engage in violence for random chaos or pure financial gain; rather, they use fear, intimidation, and coercion to pursue distinct political, social, or religious goals. In a grim Clausewitzian sense, their violence is an instrument of policy aimed at compelling an opponent to submit to their will” as I see it, Iran is the instigator relying on fear, intimidation, and coercion to pursue its desperation. Take that away and the rest falls into place. And it is my believe that Iranians under China might get a lot better then what it is now and that could spell internet support for that new setting as well.  Feel free to call me a stupid optimist, but I tend to look at these settings creatively and there is nothing creative about Iran, so we introduce it and at the same time we remove the pillars of support the Houthi’s are currently getting. Have a great day all.

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.

Oil in the family

That is a lying, a music title and a requirement for some. You see, the Middle East Monitor gave us yesterday ‘Saudi Aramco cancels October crude allocations to European refiners: Report’ where we see (at https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20260919-saudi-aramco-cancels-october-crude-allocations-to-european-refiners-report/) “Saudi Aramco informed at least two European refining customers that they will receive no crude oil in October following an attack on the kingdom’s key pipeline to the Red Sea, Bloomberg reported Friday. The decision applies to all European buyers, said the report, citing those familiar with the matter who requested anonymity because the information is not public.” As I personally see it, this is the consequence of making political dances with the Iranian terrorist state and its vessels the Houthi terrorists. This is the outcome of extremism in the Middle East. I feel happy that I at least gave my military IP to Saudi Arabia. It might result in some positivity, or it might not. But when we see “The suspension of the Saudi route prompted some European refiners to seek alternative supplies. Polish refiner Orlen has issued more than 10 tenders since Friday as it moves to secure replacement barrels, said the report. European members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development imported an average of 577,000 barrels per day of Saudi crude in June, according to an International Energy Agency’s latest Oil Market Report.” There is a larger consideration, first is that Canada has a new client in the EU for whatever oil they can deliver and the EU could deliver arms for oil to Saudi Arabia and as I see it, they need a lot more arms and they need to keep Houthi terrorists out of Saudi Arabia. I personally think that something needs to be done about the Iranian likes to Eritrea and deal with these smugglers, but that is merely my limited view. I am still in favour or eradicating Houthi and Iranians and the fact that Iran send drones to Mecca, gives the indications that a lot of muslims will see it my way at present. 

No matter how I see things, it is safe to say that the entire business equation is about to die in 9 days and I reckon that plenty of places will see this setting as ‘disastrous’ and on the upside, with the power dwindles that plants of places are going to see, the entire data center setting is about to be stopped nice and clearly, because with power limitations come all kinds of excess power needs that needs to be dialed down and the power requirements of any data center needs to be set to zero (I refrain from saying absolute zero) but until over a dozen nuclear power plants are complete (which will not happen before 2037, power will be a massive commodity all over Europe. And there is no real indication whether this is a ploy from Saudi Arabia to create a more powerful setting of becoming a Saudi ally, or whatever the need is, but there is a larger setting that is in play and I personally believe that this is about creating a better situation for Saudi Arabia and taking Houthi terrorists and their masters Iran out the equation. I think it is clear that they cannot rely on the United States, those people make claims that Iran was defeated over 30 times and we saw where that was headed from the get go. So as the United States were not willing to put boots on the ground in Yemen, the use of the United States is pretty obsolete and redundant. I cannot see into the power structures of Saudi Arabia, but it seems clear that they have had enough of fake friends. And this its about to get worse, if Pakistan honors the treaty (which requires me to know the text of the treaty, which I do not) there is every chance that Pakistan will come to the military aid of Saudi Arabia. 

The part that is currently unknown is whether this is merely one month delivery, or if it is the start of a lot more. And I remember the oil crises of 1973, when there were no cars on the road on Sunday, only first responders and medical people (on route) were allowed to drive on a Sunday. We could return to this setting, but it might not be enough. I feel for the people of Europe, but Saudi Arabia must do what is best for Saudi Arabia and its people. If this includes stopping oil deliveries to Europe, then that is what must happen. I am not a violent person but eradicating Iranians and Houthis is OK with me. They had their chances and as if they are unwilling to learn, that is on them. 

So, what happens next? I have no idea and likely a lot of people have no idea, but this all started with President Trump starting bombing Iran on February 28th 2026. And I see it as a first priority to ascertain the facts of the drone attack on September 10th 2026. It might be a moot conversation, but as I see it, Houthis (and Yemen in general) lack drone skills as in the fabrication of them, as such as we are given that “No group officially claimed responsibility”, I reckon that they figured on the wrath of hell coming their way, so they aren’t volunteering to paint a target on them. And the setting we are also given “investigations by the Iraqi government indicated that the drones were launched from Iraqi territory (specifically Maysan province), pointing toward a regional armed resistance or splinter group backed by or aligned with regional networks” (source: Al Jazeera) and I am suspecting that Iran backed these terrorists. They have done so before and there will be no denying it. Their word is not to be taken in earnest or even seriously. It strengthens the need for eradication of Iran and there is only so much we can forgive. And this is not about the oil. Iran has been out of control for a long time and that is not on the United States. As we are given “Sparked by severe economic collapse, inflation, and a crash of the Iranian rial, protests spread across all 31 provinces. The state unleashed a militarized crackdown on January 8–9, 2026, marking what UN and human rights organizations reported as the deadliest protest suppression since 1979, with thousands unlawfully killed by security forces” (source: UN Human rights center) and the setting that they attacked Saudi Arabia and the UAE under false premises is a passing of a red line so wide that we need to consider any option to stop Iran and it puts eradication on the table.

You might think me inhumane, but Iran did this to themselves and a response is now needed and if it is inhumane, so mote it be. So is it me, or are we entering a much worse situation in the Middle East? There is no way I can tell, because I am not even close to an expert on Middle Eastern matters. I have other abilities, so no regrets on that side. 

As matters are about to get worse, make sure you see your strengths and cash in on this. Have a great day today.
