📖 🇮🇶 🇮🇶 Explained: What is Kataib Hezbollah, the group targeted by US
🔶️ Kataib Hezbollah, also known as the Hezbollah Brigades, is an Iran-backed Iraqi militia accused of launching the drone strike in Jordan. Established in 2007 by Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, a close associate of Iran’s top general Qasem Soleimani, the group operates within the Popular Mobilisation Forces (PMF), an umbrella organisation of mostly Shia armed groups. Both al-Muhandis and Soleimani were killed in a US drone strike in 2020, escalating tensions between the US and Iran.
🔶️ The group adheres to the ideology of Wilayat al-Faqih, granting Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei ultimate authority over Shia Muslims. Designated a foreign terrorist organisation by the US since 2009, Kataib Hezbollah has denied involvement in some attacks, accusing the US of violating Iraq’s sovereignty.
🔶️ Led by Abu Fadak al-Mohammadawi, Kataib Hezbollah’s size and structure remain unclear, but it is estimated to have thousands of fighters with access to various weapons. The group has engaged in attacks against US forces, as well as against perceived enemies in Iraq and the region, and has deployed fighters to support Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad against rebels. In 2021, the group participated in Iraq’s elections, winning seats in parliament.

🇲🇽- Mexican Cartel Drone Operator seen stalking a Mexican Marine Convoy in Mazatlán.
This isn’t much of a surprise, Cartel members have reportedly been joining the Ukrainian Foreign Legions en masse to hone drone operation and close quarters combat skills.
Since many of them are starting to return home, and now training other members of their cartels, i wouldn’t be shocked to see a new level of militarization in these organizations.
📝 🇪🇺 🇫🇷 Mario Nawfal on X: Europe's riots are just the beginning. The real economic shock hasn't even arrived yet.
I spoke with economist Philip Pilkington about the unrest spreading across France, Italy and Albania.
He thinks we're watching the early stages of something much bigger.
One statistic really caught my attention.
According to Pilkington, France's inflation-adjusted household food consumption has fallen roughly 6.4% since 2022. He suspects the poorest households have suffered far steeper cuts.
Now add another surge in energy prices.
Pilkington pointed to rice futures rising 70% this year, wheat and sugar climbing 40%, and fertilizer shortages threatening next year's harvest.
His prediction is that the worst food inflation could arrive this winter or next spring.
And there's a political problem sitting right on top of it.
Governments across Europe are already deeply unpopular. People are struggling to afford basic necessities, and another prolonged energy ...
🇨🇦🇨🇦🗳 Alberta votes on leaving Canada; separatist movement likely to outlast expected defeat
Alberta holds a nonbinding referendum on Monday on whether the western province should secede from Canada, a debate many believe will not be settled by what is widely expected to be a defeat for the separatist cause.
Polls have consistently shown that a majority of Alberta voters oppose splitting from Canada. Economic grievances have fueled the independence campaign in the province, which is home to 5 million people and slightly smaller than Texas despite having one-sixth the population.
The Alberta separatist movement adds to the pressures on Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who has made defending Canada's sovereignty a central mission as he confronts US tariffs and President Donald Trump's repeated calls for Canada to become the 51st state.
Many Alberta separatists believe the Liberal Party-led federal government in Ottawa has constrained the Conservative-governed ...
My jaw literally dropped listening to this
There is a Muslim pilot who works for United Airlines that regularly makes pro-terrorist organizations posts on his social media
The Muslims name is Ibrahim Mossallam. He works on the Board of CAIR New York, which is linked to the Muslim Brotherhood
He made an October 7, 2023 Facebook post calling the Hamas attacks “resistance by a brave people.” United suspended him with pay while investigating but the Pilots Union got him his job back and he went back to flying planes in America
Since then the pilot has been temporarily resuspended for flying because of his extreme religious beliefs and posts but he is 100% still employed. He is still getting paid on suspension
I looked into this guy and he is VERY involved in Muslim organizations
