Sanhedrin makes stunning claim: Persia’s founding prophet was biblical Mordechai
The Sanhedrin issued a formal letter to the Iranian people this week, making a claim that rewrites ancient history: the prophet Zoroaster, founder of Persia’s ancient religion, was none other than Mordechai the Jew— and the Iranian people are being called to remember it. The letter, dated the 17th of Iyar, 5786, is signed “the Elder Brother, the Rabbis of the Mount Zion Sanhedrin Court” and opens with a verse that frames everything that follows: Current events have made the Persian King Cyrus the Great and his Biblical status relevant to regional politics. For Iranians, Cyrus the Great — Koresh in Hebrew — is not merely a historical figure. He is the founding father of Persian civilization,

Trump: Iran badly wants a deal and has agreed not to have nuclear weapons
He pointed out that Iran “had a Navy with 159 ships, and now every ship is blown to pieces and lying at the bottom of the water. They had an Air Force, lots of planes, and they don’t have any planes. They don’t have any anti-aircraft. They don’t have any radar left. Their missiles are mostly decimated. They have some. They have probably 18, 19 percent, but not a lot by comparison to what they had. And their leaders are all dead. So I think we won.” “Now we have to get what we have to get. If we don’t do that, we’ll have to go a big step further.

Among the patients being evacuated is the ship’s doctor who earlier was in “serious condition” but has improved, Spain’s health ministry said.

What is everyone misunderstanding about US intelligence report on Iran nuclear threat? – analysis
Some media outlets are putting this information out in ways that attempt to question whether the wars were worth it. While that question might be more debatable from an American point of view, from an Israeli point of view, both wars were clearly worthwhile. Prior to June 2025, Israel had faced two potential, relatively imminent existential threats from Iran: its nuclear weapons and the growth of its ballistic missile arsenal beyond a volume that Israel could handle on defense.

In webinar with current and former UN staff, anti-Israel coalition admits secret coordination with US-sanctioned group
Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla, executive secretary of the Hague Group, seemed to think that she was speaking confidentially during a webinar last Thursday, during which she said that the “Hague Group and South Africa and Colombia’s co-chairs are advised by a variety of Palestinian organizations,” from “Al Haq to Al-Shabaka, both based in Ramallah, some operating in secret without the names being published elsewhere.” Marco Rubio, U.S. secretary of state, announced American sanctions against Al Haq and two other organizations on Sept. 4 for being “directly engaged in efforts by the International Criminal Court to investigate, arrest, detain or prosecute Israeli nationals, without Israel’s consent.”

Iran Oil Official In Surprise Admission: ‘Fate Of Our Refineries Now At Risk’ As US Blockade Begins To Bite
The blockade has halted Iran’s oil exports, choking off crucial revenues, and the country risks running out of places to store its oil. It is also affecting the import of other goods, forcing Iran to seek alternative routes through neighboring countries and its smaller ports on the Caspian Sea. And the economic pain inside Iran, already dire before the war, is becoming much worse. “The sea blockade is a much more serious threat than even war,

Canadian Prime Minister Is Playing A Very Dangerous Game
Anyone who has ever dealt with a toxic narcissist understands the psychology behind their manipulative language, words and intents. What Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is doing here is very dangerous, particularly for the Canadian people. After a year of increased provocative language intended to confront President Trump for U.S. nationalist policy changes on economics, trade and security, Prime Minister Carney travelled to Europe where he again delivered strong remarks saying that Europe is now the center of the “rules based international order,” the western government control mechanisms that have maintained economic and security relationships for the past one-hundred years. Essentially, Carney, after saying the USA was no longer a reliable or obedient partner,

Scientists Reveal Time Travel Could Work
Researchers have proposed a theoretical approach that could allow messages to be sent into the past using principles from quantum mechanics. Indeed, it could be happening right now already! The concept does not enable physical travel through time but focuses on information transfer through causal loops at the quantum scale. The concept relies on closed time-like curves (CTCs), paths allowed by general relativity where something could theoretically return to its own past.

Hantavirus: Another PsyOp?
In recent days, it’s been all over the news. The discredited World Health Organization is attempting to justify its existence by managing a highly publicized Hantavirus “outbreak” on a cruise ship. The whole debacle is reminiscent of the Diamond Princess in February 2020, shortly before WHO declared the falsified COVID pandemic.
