š®š·ššŗšø Iran Is a Bigger Defeat Than Vietnam | Foreign Policy
At his second inaugural, U.S. President Donald Trump pronounced his hope āthat our recent presidential election will be remembered as the greatest and most consequential election in the history of our country.ā By losing his Gulf war, Trump has achieved that goal. His choice to launch a campaign against Iran was encouraged by others, but fully his own. It has led to a reversal that marks a strategic calamity far greater than the U.S. defeat in the Vietnam War.
Defeat in the Iranian war looks, on the surface, nothing like other U.S. military defeats. The speed of the war and its remoteness have lent an air of unreality to the whole endeavor. The White House has not been burned, as it was in 1814; there have not been protests against a nonexistent draft. The absence of substantial U.S. casualties in this conflict also masks the scale of the U.S. defeat. To be sure, the war has been deadly: Thousands of Iranians, combatants and civilians, have died in the fighting. Americans, however, have endured far fewer deaths: To date, fewer than 20 U.S. soldiers have diedāand many of those in a single strike.
By comparison, the scale of what the Vietnamese call the American War is breathtaking. Millions of people, mostly civilians, died in more than a decade of fighting waged over much of the skies and jungles of Southeast Asia; of those, just under 60,000 were Americans. So bitter was the experience that, for a generation, when Americans mentioned the word āVietnam,ā they did not refer to the actual country or society that bears that nameāabout whom they remained largely ignorant even after years of struggle. In American usage, Vietnam was understood to be primarily a metaphor or a symbol for an American experience.
To many ordinary Americans, it meant personal grief. For some elites, Vietnam was a cautionary tale about the hubris of power; for others, it was an error that hindered proper strategic calculation in the present. There was, however, a national consensus that Vietnam was a stain on the national fabric: A 2014 Chicago Council on Global Affairs poll found 58 percent of Americans described it as a ādark momentā and only 12 percent as something to be proud of.
The most difficult point to grasp about that conflict today may be why the United States fought so hard given how little the conflict turned out to matter to Washington. For all that U.S. policymakers waging war tolerated what would now be almost unimaginable casualties, U.S. failure in the war ultimately mattered little to broader American strategic objectives.
Those observations do not change the fact that, for the United States itself, the consequences of a costly defeat were, in the long run, relatively minor and inward-looking. The United States emerged from the wider Cold War triumphant. Vietnam itself is a power surprisingly friendly to the United States today.
Compare that situation with the aftermath of Trumpās war. The United States is inarguably in a weaker position than when it began this war of choice, with core U.S. strategic objectives harmed.
Contrast how its military performance has seemed during this conflict with the U.S.-led coalitionās war to reverse Iraqi President Saddam Husseinās conquest of Kuwait. In the 1990-91 conflict, the seeming ease with which Iraqās military was dismembered stunned the world.
By contrast, the technically superior performance of U.S. arms in the Iran conflict has been overshadowed by the shallowness of U.S. arsenals, calling into question U.S. preparedness for a conflict with any foe more powerful than the Islamic Republic. The lasting image of high-tech combat from this conflict will be the blood-spattered bags of Iranian schoolgirls killed as the result of an apparent database error. And although U.S. defensive systems have performed well against Iranian missiles and one-way attack drones, Iran was nevertheless able to penetrate those systems to great effect, calling into question how those systems would fare against a more focused enemy or over a longer conflict.
NEW STUDY: Topical vitamin C in DMSO completely ELIMINATED 56% of biopsy-confirmed skin cancers in just 12 weeks.
44% of the squamous cell carcinoma lesions SHRANK by over 85%.
94% of patients were able to AVOID surgery.
The average cancer lesion size dropped 71%.
The treatment was 30% ascorbic acid in a 95% DMSO/5% distilled-water solution, applied twice daily for 12 weeks.
DMSO was used as a skin-penetration enhancer, helping the vitamin C pass through the outer skin barrier and reach the lesion more effectively.

Scientists have now developed a way to genetically engineer lettuce with pig DNA to make plant-based meat taste like meat
The is a new 2026 study that inserted pig myoglobin genes into lettuce chloroplasts, which persisted in the lettuce grown from the harvested seeds. āThis research follows the British company Moolec, which inserts pig DNA into soybeans to create what they call piggy soyā
āSince this is all considered gene editing and not genetic modification, it bypasses most regulation and can be sold with little restrictionsā
I have no words for how depraved the minds of these Christ-hating transhumanist idiots are.

š®š± Israel's New Grand-Strategy;
Excerpts from an article published by the Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), a think tank funded by the Tel Aviv University:
'The United States is a ādeclining powerā and, given its ongoing social and political shifts, will soon abandon Israel in any event.'
'Severing ties with the United States is therefore not only inevitable, but essential to Israelās independence.'
'The stateās Jewish identity takes precedence over its democratic system of government.'
'any arrangement with Arab actors is temporary and deceptive'
'War is necessary, and preventive war is preferable because it secures a significant achievement at the outset.'
'most Arab states are not genuine nation-states ā¦ undermining their stability is viewed as a natural process, one that Israel can manage more effectively than it can contend with strong nation-states, and one that it should even encourage.'
'Defense is established by creating communities and ...
This is something that needs to be spoken about openly, as these sytems grow more insatiable it is going to change for the worse not better. You can clearly see the sites are all either news or pharmacy, this is about worldwide exploitation especially in western society concerning young adults and even, especially, children who have been abused or incarcerated unfairly.
This is typically because their lives have already been deemed unwanted as they have been put into foster care or sex trafficked then risk being put into forced pschiatric facilities for the rest of their lives (where new drugs are tested and experimented on youth) or behavioral labour camps (which make a profit).
The excuse is for learning disabilities or for mental illnesses (which are solely reaction s to their abuse not an illness- ie pysch fraud) is the sickest form of exploitation imaginable and yet it is happening in America and the UK and has been happening for decades solely because everyone is complicit. All programs shown are operative in America and The UK.

š” š«š· š¬ Hundreds of French supermarkets have been hit by a cyber attack that caused their fridges and freezers to heat up, spoiling fresh and frozen food estimated to be worth millions of euros.
Hackers reportedly gained control of the software that regulates the temperatures of the refrigeration units, forcing some to warm to 50C (120F) overnight.
Almost 100 of the chain's stores were targeted, while between 150 and 200 IntermarchƩ supermarkets were affected, according to the AFP news agency.
IntermarchƩ said its fridges had heated up to 50C for six hours overnight into Monday, and the retailer had thrown away all the affected food to avoid health risks, the Reuters news agency reported.
Prosecutors in Paris confirmed the cyber attack and indicated it had prompted fire outbreaks, according to AFP.
š Rushi: "Weāve connected so much of our physical world to the internet that apparently even keeping milk cold is now a cybersecurity problem."
