🇮🇷🚫🚢 My analysis of the Strait of Hormuz over the last 24 hours.
If the tankers use the Iran route, they are dominantly Iran-related. If the tankers use the Oman route, they are not, and never sanctioned.
I have heard from ship owners that most tankers cannot use the Iran route because the EU has not lifted sanctions on IRGC. Using the Iran route would risk sanctions, making the Oman route the only viable option.
With more conflict going on between IRGC and the US, the visible AIS data on Oman's tanker route is going to go dark again, which means Iran will have to keep escalating in order to completely halt flows.
For the US, the fact that the Oman route might be blocked presents it with a big ultimatum: either the US escalates or gives IRGC control of the Strait of Hormuz. Logic says there's no way that would happen, so escalation will continue.
Given that Trump has made it obvious that he does not want to escalate, I fear that the IRGC would just keep escalating until they gain control.
This issue is far from over.

🇺🇸 A group of students in Lubbock #TX have started punching, kicking, and beating the teachers.. in the middle of the school day. Students can be seen dragging white teachers by the hair. How is anyone supposed to learn in this environment? It's worth investigating.

Most people check the ingredients in their food. But what about the light bulbs in their homes?
As the days shorten, we spend more time under artificial light. Yet most people choose their lighting without considering what it means for their health.
Here I explore the forgotten research on natural and artificial light, why the differences extend far beyond vitamin D, and what deserves a closer look in your own home:

🇺🇸🇳🇱🇦🇿🇦🇪 — A new book alleges that Dutch intelligence hacked the phone of Jared Kushner, U.S. President Trump's son-in-law, and monitored him accessing a Dubai bank account holding hundreds of millions of dollars transferred from a bank in Azerbaijan.
The claim comes from an excerpt of 'Princes and Thieves', a book by investigative journalist Matthew Cole about Kushner and Emirati President Mohamed bin Zayed.
Cole says a source he considered reliable told him in spring 2020 that Kushner appeared to transfer large sums from the account to other individuals, including a warlord, a mercenary, and a former hitman.
The excerpt's headline says the transfers totaled more than $700 million and that the bank accounts linked Kushner and former senior adviser to Israel, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia.
