In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria. And everyone went to their own town to register. So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to […]

Heads up. Arctic stratospheric warming event, which oddly enough actually means cold. Not guaranteed but if it does hit, it's about 2 weeks out. January. Will start in Midwest, spread to eastern USA, and hit western Europe.

"I had joked that Rebel Moon looked like Warhammer 40K and Star Wars had hate-fucked and made a baby that was raised by Luc Besson.

"What makes this movie so tedious to get through is the utter lack of originality. 

"There isn’t a single scene in this movie that I haven’t seen somewhere else. Hell, past a certain point, I was wondering if Zack Snyder had been replaced by an AI himself.  Had the poor thing been shown nothing in its sad existence but Zack Snyder movies and then was ordered to create one?"

⚡️🇮🇷 Regarding the post of one of my friends about the IRCG converting over 33,000 civilian vessels to be used for military action against naval forces that are hostile towards Iran.

In 2002, the US conducted a wargame by the name of "Millennium Challenge 2002", that ran from July to August of that year, with the US being on one side and the other side being "Iran/Iraq"

All in all, it ended horribly for the U.S in this simulation, to the extent that the Commanding officer of the Red side stated that his superiors bluntly ordered him to disclose his own locations, forces, and not to engage with certain US units (even if he was capable in), the U.S simply lost in that simulation.

Cut forward to 21 years later, the US navy is not what it used to be in 2002, it has shortages of sailors, officers, maintenance issues, the fleets are decaying, and so on.

Overall, this is NOT a fun time for the U.S.

Fantastic, illuminating piece. It also dovetails neatly with my own reading of Revelation. Essentially, the Bad Guys who will start it see themselves as the Good Guys, and the prophecy as a kind of "instruction manual" for them to follow. This view of things is born of a very specific kind of madness that culminated in the Gnostic and Theosophical movements of the 19th century. It also explains the focus on false prophets and messiahs, and how the prophecy could be simultaneously "self-fulfilling" and fated.

🇵🇱🏳️‍🌈 Poland to Fast-Track Gay Marriage?

Poland’s new Europhile government may be poised to fast-track the legalisation of same-sex marriage following a legal diktat from the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).

The Strasbourg-based ECHR issued their verdict on Tuesday, declaring that current Polish statutes, which recognize marriage as between a man and a woman, violate the “right to respect for private and family life” outlined under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights in a six-to-one decision.

The ECHR, which is often accused of being a technocratic body used to impose socially liberal values on European nation-states, made the decision in response to a challenge by five same-sex couples.

This is not the first time the ECHR has been accused of meddling in the affairs of sovereign nations around LGBT issues. In 2010, the Court was instrumental in strongarming the Italian government into recognising same sex partnerships with the similarly worded Oliari v. Italy case.

The ruling on same-sex partnerships heralded by this week’s ECHR decision could be the opening salvo in a range of liberal policies to be enacted under the new Tusk government. The newly installed PM has said LGBT recognition would be a major symbolic victory over the old PiS regime despite Tusk having minimised abortion and other social issues during the campaign trail.

🇺🇸 🇾🇪 💵 A $2M missile vs. a $2,000 drone: Pentagon worried over cost of Houthi attacks

⬛️ “That quickly becomes a problem because the most benefit ... is in their favor,” one expert said.

🔶️ As American warships rack up kills against Houthi drones and missiles in the Red Sea, Pentagon officials are increasingly alarmed not just at the threat to U.S. naval forces and international shipping — but at the growing cost of keeping them safe.

🔶️ U.S. Navy destroyers have shot down 38 drones and multiple missiles in the Red Sea over the past two months, according to a Defense Department official, as the Iran-backed militants have stepped up attacks on commercial vessels moving energy and oil through the world’s most vital shipping lanes. On Saturday alone, the destroyer USS Carney intercepted 14 one-way attack drones.

🔶️ Houthi leaders have said the attacks are a show of support for the Palestinians, and that they won’t stop until Israel halts its operations in Gaza. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Monday announced a new international maritime coalition to safeguard shipping and counter the attacks.

The video shows the process of transferring fire by the gunner from one target to another, but no specific targets are hit.
