U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints.

One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Shelves of novels by Stephen King

Someone just asked for the Stephen King book about the scary clown but they couldn't remember the name of It.

"Israeli officials.. are looking to do enough damage to Iran's police state from the air that the people can take over on the ground." Degrading state capacity increases likelihood of state failure, not democratic change -Israel fine with chaotic collapse, US/Gulf not.

Seems to me like a real good time to have a think about how happy we are setting half the planet on fire, just so that Israel’s genocidal, expansionist, fascist government can seize, depopulate, bulldoze and settle even more territory from its neighbours, without facing effective resistance.

Hegseth: "We are only four days into this and the results have been incredible."

- Middle East engulfed in regional war
- 11 countries attacked by Iran
- Oil & gas prices skyrocketing
- Strait of Hormuz now a conflict zone
- Terrorism threat raised across the world
- No sign of Iran regime collapse

Wonder why they have partner instead of husband? Also after reading her Wiki page, I think Jimmy Reid must be burling in his grave.

The political effects of X's feed algorithm https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-026-10098-2 Received: 16 December 2024 Accepted: 4 January 2026 Published online: 18 February 2026 Open access • Check for updates Germain Gauthier,5, Roland Hodler?5, Philine Widmer35 & Ekaterina Zhuravskaya3,4,5 m Feed algorithms are widely suspected to influence political attitudes. However, previous evidence from switching off the algorithm on Meta platforms found no political effects'. Here we present results from a 2023 field experiment on Elon Musk's platform X shedding light on this puzzle. We assigned active US-based users randomly to either an algorithmic or a chronological feed for 7 weeks, measuring political attitudes and online behaviour. Switching from a chronological to an algorithmic feed increased engagement and shifted political opinion towards more conservative positions, particularly regarding policy priorities, perceptions of criminal investigations into Donald Trump and views on the war in Ukraine. In contrast, switching from the algorithmic to the chronological feed had no comparable effects. Neither switching the algorithm on nor switching it off significantly affected affective polarization or self-reported partisanship. To investigate the mechanism, we analysed users' feed content and behaviour. We found that the algorithm promotes conservative content and demotes posts by traditional media. Exposure to algorithmic content leads users to follow conservative political activist accounts, which they continue to follow even after switching off the algorithm, helping explain the asymmetry in effects. These results suggest that initial exposure to X's algorithm has persistent effects on users' current political attitudes and account-following behaviour, even in the absence of a detectable effect on partisanship.

A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right.

Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement.

This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.

A few weeks ago, I posted about Hanne Engan a woman with diabetes who almost died of neglect & mistreatment while being wrongly detained in one of Trump's ICE torture concentration camps.

This isn't a one off. Dozens of people have died. People are being tortured, even babies!

Iran signed and ratified the nuclear nonproliferation treaty in 1970. It does not have nuclear weapons and there is no evidence it has nuclear weapons.

Israel refuses to sign the NPT. It has 200 secret nuclear weapons. It bans independent UN inspections.

So to keep the world safe, USA bombs Iran.🤔

I prefer non-lethal distractions from the tRUMPSTEIN Files like renaming the Gulf of Mexico, making Canada the 51st state & buying Greenland. Sure it was hugely offensive to longtime friends & allies, but at least no one died.

This Iranian can see the USA's 'freedom' for what it is.

Mass Murder.

While Americans plan to send their sons and daughters off to fight in an illegal war, this lawless MF’er is living it up with the Epstein class, whose children will never go to war.

US Troops have been told by superiors that the conflict in Iran is part of a biblical plan to bring about the end of the world.

One commander said, "President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran.”

Impeach this clown before he gets everyone killed.

Picture of Hugh Grant, with a quote of his from X: "Dirty Business on Channel 4. Brilliantly made, devastating. Water must be nationalised now. The owners of the private water companies jailed."

Hang it in the The Louvre! *

Hugh Grant is right - the privatisation of water is a scam, and it's a Very English Scandal that no-one has been brought to justice for the destruction of our rivers and seas.

We need public ownership, and oversight, now.

It takes a special kind of hypocrisy to be a gay immigrant who gets incredibly rich off the freedoms of liberal California, only to turn around and bankroll an authoritarian movement.

So Galatasaray supporters banned from Liverpool tie at Anfield due to past trouble. Wonder if Starmer will get his anti semetic hard on about it. Or is it just Israeli fans who must be defended every time by Netanyahu's Labour Cabinet bribes.
