The massive tsunami took place at 5:26 a.m. local time on Aug. 10 in the Tracy Arm Fjord, a popular cruise destination about 50 miles south of the state’s capital, Juneau.

UN Climate Panel Quietly Admits Its Doomsday Climate Scenarios Were ‘Implausible’
The IPCC has published a new generation of climate scenarios – and buried in the fine print is a remarkable concession: the extreme warming pathways that dominated climate research, policy, and media coverage for decades were never actually plausible. It took a while to notice because almost no one in mainstream media bothered to report it. “The IPCC and broader research community has now admitted that the scenarios that have dominated climate research, assessment and policy during the past two cycles of the IPCC assessment process are implausible. They describe impossible futures.”

The Democratic Party Is Dead, Long Live The Jacobins!
For the past century, the agendas of the Democratic Party were predictable. They professed concern for working Americans and supported blue-collar unions. Unemployment insurance, a 40-hour work week, disability insurance, and Social Security were their trademarks—often rapidly achieved by growing government bureaucracies and continually raising taxes. Still, many Democrats were socially conservative. All that is now passé. The only vestigial Democrat left in Congress is Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman, himself roundly despised by Democrat leaders. Forty years ago, any Democrat with a Nazi tattoo was political toast; today, he can become the party’s nominee for the Maine Senate race.

Israel was never meant to be a safe haven. It was meant to be a light unto the nations.
When Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu launched Operation Sha’agat HaAri, “The Lion’s Roar”, against Iran, he broke with every standard script Israel has used to explain itself to the world for the past seventy years. He did not merely promise to eliminate the nuclear threat hanging over Israeli cities. He declared, before a watching world: “We will create conditions that will allow the brave Iranian people to throw off the yoke of this murderous regime.” Then he added four words that reverberated far beyond any military briefing room: “This is a campaign for humanity.”

US Legal Group Says Georgetown University Acting as Foreign Agent of Qatar, Calls on Trump Admin to Investigate
A leading Jewish advocacy organization on Thursday implored the US Justice Department to investigate Georgetown University following a bombshell report which exposed a secret contract with Qatar, arguing the school is acting as a foreign agent of the Qatari monarchy. The Washington Free Beacon first reported this week that, based on documents provided by the US House Education Committee, Georgetown in 2024 inked a $630,000 deal with Qatar which guaranteed the monarchy’s support of an initiative to promote awareness of “Islamophobia.

Israel said the attack killed the commander of the Iran-backed terrorist group’s elite Radwan force. Hezbollah, which controls Beirut‘s southern suburbs, has yet to issue any statement on the strike or the commander’s status. “He likely read in the press that he had immunity in Beirut. Well, he read it and it is no longer the case,” Netanyahu said in a statement.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Humanity’s Future: War, Famine, Pestilence, and Great Earthquakes

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.
