Confirms the thesis that war is not won on battle strategies or military tactics; but on logistics
It is more fun criticizing
The analysis is a masterpiece of critical thinking of the first principle, ie breaking down the weapons in its component. Those are Pentagon did a masterful thinking on this campaign - destroy the capability to produce the weapon that can swarm, and the asssymeteric warfare is gone.
Peace to be here back soon.
Congrats to US. But the real purpose of the war is not that venerable, is it? (Smokescreen for the domestic problems and conflicts and the loss of Petro dollars, Japan currency fiasco)
US bombed everything on Kharg Island except the $53b oil infrastructures
It is more fun criticizing
The US destroyed the military infrasturctures at Kharg Island: bunkers airports etc but not the oil facilities. It is where most of the oil exports of Iran come from. It has to be an island so that deep sea ports without the massive engineering can be economically be built.

Will this warship, USS Tripoli bring peace and security to the Gulf of Hormuz and finally stabilize oil prices?
It is more fun criticizing
Despite the pronouncement that USA has decapitated the leadership of Iranian govt, and that 90% of the military force of the country has been decimated, the fear of mines, fast attack boat, shore ot ship missile strike still spooks the shipping industry.
While KSA has a pipeline flowing through to the Red Sea, the rest still has to pass the dangerous Strait of Hormuz, only 22 miles at narrowest point.
The author of the video says that peace will finally be brought by this warship, and probably normalcy in trade and price of oil. This is neither an aircraft carrier nor amphibious landing craft, but it carries troops, aircraft and more.

US Navy will escort and insure ships passing through gulf of Hormuz, effectively outwitting Lloyds and UK; war is all about dominating global business
It is more fun criticizing
There were tremors in the oil market, spoofing the oil markets, and it was projected that gas in the PHL will rise by P10.00 to P15.00 per liter triggering massive price increases in transport and daily necessities and spiking inflation. This was due to the withdrawing of insurance by Lloyds of London UK
However, we note:
1. The leadership of Iran is gone,
2. Navy ships gone, Air force gone (However the missiles could still be a threat)
Ground war;
3. Trump promised to have US navy escort the ship through the gulf of Hormuz and insure the same thru the US International Development Finance Corporation.
US may be spending a lot for this war, probably now in billions of $ But its all about control of oil, energy, insurance money. And by projecting power to UAE, petro dollars will not vanish after all. Petro dollars will be here to stay. (No severe backlash for US, no domestic inflation) Trump wins.

18 Fmr marines holds press conference prior to EDSA rev, revelealing recipients of basura (money in maletas) could be damning
It is more fun criticizing
For most of Filipinos this revelation is damning. The 18 others corroborates the Guteza testimony and points to the smoking gun of corruption towards the head.
Now the administation and its sub alterns will do everything to protect the chief, shield him from prosecution (DOJ, NBI, Ombudsman) and even the investigating bodies. These will be trashed. The admin will try to sweep to these under the rug so that people will forget. Then we hope that divine justice takes over. The justice we hope here does not seem to exist
Most of the alleged recipients have failed to comment or respond, and for those who respond will only deny, Using the 11th commandment of "nahuli na"
The expose failed to mobilize a people power revolution, IN our minds the indictment is compelte. Mangoes do not bear apples and vice versa; the sin of the olders goes down to the son. Enough

Illegal reclamation projects at Laguna Lake
It is more fun criticizing
A lot is being published regarding alleged illegal reclamation projects at Laguna Lake. This is pervasive at Taguig and even in our town where hectares of the lake are being reclaimed. They say that LLDA will not allow any construction beyond the 12.5 mllc elevation But it is not. They allege that LLDA law prohibits reclamation projects (I tried to look for such authority under the law that created LLDA This post can not find clearcut rules on reclamation.)
The GM of the agency appeared to be surprised and may be his monitoring team are napping?
Now its flood control projects being masqueraded but in reality are reclamation projects. (One of them a siomai Lord turned billionaire, alleged not to have been rich due to the product but because of something else)
Will there be more with the coastal road projects?
Really these activities must be controlled becasue of frequent floodings, pollution and its possible effect on the use of Laguna Lake as reservoir for Manila Water and Maynilad. It is possible that the water storage capacity of the lake could be affected with the decrease in volume due to reclamation

Will demonetization of P500 and P1000 bills deter the plunder of Philippine Treasury by the flood control tibs?
It is more fun criticizing
Some proposals are being forwarded so as to nullify the hoard of cash that were delivered allegedly to house so top govt officials. It would be costly to CB (and also erase their income. CB makes a lot on bills printing) and bad for the majority of Filipinos and limited withdrawals instead.
But how would the crooks hide the money. They need to transfer them abroad and launder them and they will ge caught. It will be caught by local banks if deposited locally. There has to be other way of laundering this. (Hmmm so that is why many are looking for business plans for of acquaintances)

The other group says that the ICC is above all the courts in the Philippines and that the former membership at Rome Statute. gives ICC jurisdiction

A $3 trillion heist by a European powerhouse in the Philippines; Philippines would have been a very prosperous country were it not for this?
It is more fun criticizing
It was alleged in this video that a European powerhouse, a top 20 nation in total GDP had $3 trillion heist on the Philippines about 70,000 tons of gold. This was based on records dug by a Philippine historian, Ambeth Ocampo. Like the rest of its conquest Spain found out that Philippines had plenty of gold mines the most famous of which were in Surigao, Benguet, Camarines (the Paracale) and numbering about 200 +. Spain had forced mining activity that brought the gold to Spain using the galleon trade from Manila to Acapulco, and from thereon to Spain. (There is another video that the mountains of gold did more harm than good to Spain. This caused inflation and encouraged lack of productivity among its citizens
Manila was rightfully known as "Queen of the Orient"
There are hints that Spain should repay, render reparation to the Philippines. $3 trillion isi about PHP 180 trillion and would do much erase the Php 17 trillion current debt.
Had there be no such heist, the Philippine infrastructure, health care and education would have been one of the best in the world, and truly Philippines would be the Pearl of the Orient Seas.
Would this post make many Filipinos furious? Before it was foreigners committing heist, now its compatriots.

Leviste on a 6 month leave - presssure from his detractors
It is more fun criticizing
Rep Leandro Leviste is reported to be on a 6 mos leave, probably at the behest of his detractors (administration). He would seem to have buckled from pressure from his opponents due to vulnerability as former businessman and who relies on the govt for his licenses and approval as a power supplier.
He should have not attempted to cross the lines with the Cabral files and his exposes being a former businessman. This is a Machiavellian reality - do not wound (or even attack a king) most especially if the king is all powerful and almighty
2026 will be pivotal in Baba Vangas prediction for 2026
It is more fun criticizing
She was accurate in predicting the rise to power of first Afro American Obama. She made her prediction about Trump long before he became a politician. She was blind and illiterate and her predictions were chronicled by historians, relatives and people around her.
1. America would experience the great divide: conflicts
2 Donald Trump would return to power but he will face a lot of legal obstacles even from people around him (its happening with Republicans who want him out)
3. America would lose its power over its former allies with the demise of dollar as world currency and internal economic crisis (debts, deficits etc)
4. America especially the Western side would experience many catastrphe from sea and volcanic activity.
5. America would face real scarcity not from lack of production but problems in its logistics (happening now in California due to scarcity of fuel, banning of diesel trucks and many more)

California preparing for economic downturn?
It is more fun criticizing
There is a possibility of an economic downturn and critics say this is not hypothetical nor prophetic It is happening right now.
1. California residents are exiting the state because of high prices of homes commodities, gasoline and in general high cost of living. They are joining their companies now exiting the state; estimated number about 800,000.
2. High tech companies those in Fortune 500 have exited the company. Reason: high cost of regulation, fines, high cost of fuel, and not so friendly to business any more regulatory environmnet
3. Exit, transfer of high value individuals (billionaire) due to the yearly tax on wealth (subsequently repealed. The billionaires put up a fund to wage war vs the measure using political and legal means The Gov eventually folded up and ordered the repeal)
4. Regulatory over reach affecting:
1. Fuel supplies
1. Huge fines to refineries. Two refineries accounting for 16% of CA fuel supplies closed down due to huge fines that were imposed;
2. The shortfall is being replenished by imports from Asia: Korea, Singapare and India
resulting in higher prices due to freight cost, which takes a month from the port of
origin.
3. Fuel prices have skyrocketed as result surpassing the projected $8.43 per gallon.
4. This has affected fuel prices in Arizona and Nevada which buys fuel from California

An economic wasteland being produced in California by progressive laws under a progressive governor
It is more fun criticizing
Economic challenges are facing a state that has an economy second only to the United States.
Businesses are transferrring elsewhere and crisis after crisis are expected. TESLA and others are moving to Texas. Silicon Valley techno firms are leaving Silicon Valley - why probably because of policies from Sacramento
Some indicators:
1. Closure of two refineries producing roughly 200,000 barrels of fuel fueled by ambition to shift to EV, non polluting technology --->> will result in higher fuel costs even sidelining airline operations, affecting the fuel of military. Since all things are systemic, the ripple effect even NY and other fuel supplies in nearby states and all of US.
They were forced out due to stiff fines due to non compliance with emission standards.
It was reported that the state subsidized the battery research and EV manufacturers with $18 billion. while just supporing rise to 1% (from 2%) of EV user The refineries were just asking relief for millions of penalty.
2. 70,000 truckers planning to stop operations -->> will affect logistics and prices of goods
Independent truckers family owned are to be treated as employers and owners are to be taxed as owners being treated as employees and employee taxes are to be imposed. Assembly No 5
a. Freedom from employer control
b. There is no negotiation. If you take freight, you are an employee
If you resist, leave the state.
3. Closure of about 400 gasoline stations. They were to be upgrading the tanks and red tape prevented
them from upgrading. Local fuel supplies are compromised
4 Closure of hundreds of retail due to shift on law on shoplifting -->> affect access to daily necessities in rural communities. Theft shoplifitng of less than $950 is misdemeanor. Retailers experience up to 5% shrinkage of inventory have no choice except to close shop
4. Closure of farms due to change on policy on irrigation and fertilizer -->> will result in loss of income of farmers and food security across USA
