Ghost, tell us how you really feel!! "sniveling rodents, mental patients back into the asylum". Your usual humor is a great way to start the day. (BTW, I know you mean it, but its still funny how you put it!)

What an amazing show that we are not simply watching but actually living through... WOW, God is Good!

The whack a mole is an excellent analogy of Trump 2.0 mastery of the Narrative, his whole team has a PhD in Trump-A_Mania.

What will we see today, what a time to be alive!

God Wins!

God Bless!!!

Seems very likely to me that israel launched that tomahawk that killed those girls. Yes i know the media says that israel has no tomahawks. who do you suppose the media represents? israel is behind most false flags

Gary's avatar

The evidence is quite strong that the missile in question was not a Tomahawk but one of Iran's ground-launched Soumar Kh-55 derivatives. The attack angle strongly implies that it had a failed secondary motor (the jet engine that takes over once a booster rocket gets the missile off the ground) causing it to plummet not far from the launch point. The school is just across a fence from an Iranian military base, presumably using the school as a human shield and of course now as a propaganda set piece.

Interesting that the warhead appears to have been armed already at this point in the launch. Normally warheads are armed autonomously, further into the flight profile, to prevent exactly this sort of tragedy (friendly-fire casualties resulting from a launch failure causing the vehicle to hit nearby friendly territory).

Summaries I've seen on Brave seem to indicate that a Tomahawk was indeed the likely culprit, though it must have failed and gone off-course (after the warhead was armed) and hit the school. US forces would not have intentionally targeted a civilian target such as this, and Israel does not (officially) have Tomahawks. Though they do not officially have the ~200 nukes most everyone knows they have, either...

Anna's avatar

My money is on covert Israelis behind the strike/failure.

Wild Bill's avatar

You don't trust them at all, do you? 😎

Yeah... I don't blame you. Especially when eyewitnesses described three separate explosions in close succession -- that would not be something caused by a propulsion failure. Fool me once, shame on me... but three times evidences clear intent.

"President Trump appears to be playing a trick on these goons, and they are too drunk on hubris to see it. He has fooled them into thinking that he is a cocksure cavalier who leaps before he looks, and can be led into a forever war with enough ego-stroking and pragmatic salesmanship."

It is fascinating how many people just do not accept how Trump works. Just mind-boggling. Lady Lindsey should just be quiet and go home. "Better to say nothing and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."

I pray that the voting investigations will result in some actuals - arrests, real changes to the election process, honesty (?) in voter rolls, etc.

I am not sure why Iran, (are there others?) is poking Turkey, but they are. Turkey feels like the unknown wild card. Just a gut feeling.

Stay tuned for the next exciting episode!!

My jury is still out on who is poking whom. Good comment, though!

Forbidden News with Susak Kokinda, Gen. Blaine Holt and Tom Luongo -- all A-listers -- some of what they say will surprise the living sh!t out of you. Very interesting observations and predictions, scary good if true. Takes about a half hour at 1.5x. Rarely do I watch these videos because of the time they consume, this one is worth it.

I have never seen Sen. Graham more excited about going to War that I have when I watched Maria Bartiromo's "Sunday Morning Futures,"

Washington DC is beginning to resemble the moral and storyline of the old 1970s protest song called Alice's Restaurant" (Arlo Guthrie) with all the over-exaggerated claims and punishments.

This show is becoming very entertaining.

Wild Bill's avatar

For those who haven't heard the song (it's usually played on the radio on Thanksgiving weekend), or those who have and would like to re-visit the lyrics, which are quite extensive, they are here: https://genius.com/Arlo-guthrie-alices-restaurant-massacree-lyrics

The song is from 1967 and well captures the anti-war sentiment of the times. My favorite line:

"[Verse 23: Spoken] (this is in the Army draft office)

I went over to the sergeant, said, "Sergeant, you got a lotta damn gall to ask me if I've rehabilitated myself. I mean—I mean—I mean—that just— I'm sittin' here on the bench— I mean I'm sittin' here, on the Group W bench, 'cause you want to know if I'm moral enough to join the army, burn women, kids, houses and villages...after being a litterbug."

Ashe, have you tried to get the Omega4America man, Jay Valentine, to come on and talk about vote fraud. He knows more about The Fraud than those who are committing it.

Thanks to you all for The Badlands Brief. Y'all are smokin' out dead-tree media.

Wild Bill's avatar

I second the recommendation of Jay Valentine.

War is the Racket for the globalists, starting with those behind Lloyds of London. The British 'empire' has used our boys and girls in the quest for the 'Empire' for 200 years now and it needs to end. They have used 'global tensions' for far too long. Trump is ending this, most recently The Marshall Plan.

Anna's avatar

At first glance I read British 'empire' as British vampire. Backtracking, I wonder if indeed, the City isn't filled with vampires? Rumor has it King Charlie loves vampires 🧛‍♂️

"For the second time in a week, NATO forces intercept an Iranian missile entering Turkey airspace"

I wonder HOW [NATO] article 5 clause would be activated if some Patriot interceptor were to miss or fully fail ??

HOW would [They] react in such a case ?

Could it be possible some actor had got delivery of Tomahawks which could have become rogue ??

I agree with Ashe's statement, accelerate. We need to accelerate through this exposure phase, which has been going on since President Trump took office in 2017. Who's ready for the deposing and justice phase to take center stage?

Burning Bright's avatar

The real question is, does continuing to just blindly vote in our elections as they currently exist accelerate or deccelerate said exposure?

Wild Bill's avatar

Everyone here is ready. The normies, well, coming along slowly... Trump has their attention and perhaps they are ready to know about the British Cabal, City of London, etc. Trump is no longer speaking of them in code words -- he makes his disdain for their system clear.

ALtab's avatar

—-‘This is the essence of the of public private partnerships in elections — plausible deniability via ever-moving goal posts.’ Not just elections though, Ashe! It’s the essence of all public private partnerships and was planned as such. ‘…elusive transparency is now the substance of a federal investigation.’ Finally it begins! BTW: What happened to Kari Lake?

—-Ghost is absolutely correct! ‘We all owe a deep debt of gratitude to President Trump for exposing—beyond all reasonable doubt—the traitors in the GOP who have sold out our country to Israel.’ ‘They’ll tell me things our own government won’t tell me.’ Really, Lindsey? 👀. Warmongering is (almost) his favorite thing, apparently. For a price?

—-BB very likely has the assessment correct on the move from nuclear weapons to nuclear power. It’s a great short term strategy. BTW: The US has enough gas. The profit-generating narrative continues.

—-‘…incentive structures…’ appear to be the key to building and maintaining peace in the Middle East as it’s important to have common ground in differing cultures. I’m not surprised Ghost addressed this. MBS is one of the uniquely gifted leaders in this century and what was considered impossible is now possible. Make the Middle East great again!

—-Great question, Ashe! ‘How do you roll up a racket?’

—-Jonathan Turley is the master of reminding, from a great legal mind.

—-Recommend reading (or rereading) Sun Tzu’s Art of War.

👍I keep meaning to purchase The Art of War…just put it in my cart on amazon

I’ve long enjoyed the gems in Morihei Ueshiba’s The Art of Peace

“Foster and polish

The warrior spirit

While serving in the world;

Illuminate the Path

According to your inner light.

“THE ART OF PEACE does not rely on weapons or brute force to succeed; instead, we put ourselves in tune with the universe, maintain peace in our own realms, nurture life, and prevent death and destruction. The true meaning of the term samurai is one who serves and adheres to the power of love.”

The Art of War is necessary in our times. And God Bless Trump, a leader who inherited endless wars but holds a vision of Peace for all

Speaking as someone who has purchased multiple copies of the "Art of War" please know that the translator and editor makes all the difference in the content. Check reviews to ensure you get one that has been found beneficial - I own two that look nice but are almost indiscernible!

ALtab's avatar

We listened to the audiobook a couple of years ago and just got the 2025 Complete Edition, new modern English translation, translated and annotated by Nathan Cole and Joseph-Marie Amoit.

It explains the period words and context of the time that helps (much like your original source words in the Bible) and includes analysis of each chapter at the end. So far, I like the additional depth it brings.

ALtab's avatar

I actually see it as demonstrating how to get to peace, only using kinetic force when absolutely necessary and only when planned for the shortest time with the least destruction of the land and civilization. I need to look at your book, will look it up!

Wild Bill's avatar

Si vis pacem, para bellum — "If you want peace, prepare for war" — is a Latin adage attributed to Roman military writer Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus in his 4th-century AD treatise De Re Militari. -- Brave

In his first term, Trump rebuilt the US MIL to be the strongest in the world.

In his second (cabbage) term, Trump allowed the players to show themselves for who they truly are.

In his current (third) term, he is disassembling the British imperial system that has controlled the world for many centuries now. Both Israel and Iran are Cabal puppets; Trump intends to cut the strings.

Featherjourney's avatar

Nice!

I can see that the more prepared you are for war, the calmer and more certain you are if you must engage.

Yes. And the less likely you are to need to engage.

Ghost... Lindsey Graham seems like this year's John Bolton. Remember how President Trump put Bolton out there because he was a crazy loose cannon that always wanted war? Made people nervous. Graham seems like Bolton 2.0 here.

Wild Bill's avatar

There exists in DC an entire cadre of war-hawks. Bolton and Lady Lindsey are two of the ringleaders. There are quite a few others.

Featherjourney's avatar

While I appreciate with much respect all the Badlands contributors M-F on this substack, I will say that today I especially love Ghost’s piece on Iran and “the moron” Lindsey Graham who hasn’t got a clue what Military planning at it finest is all about as we end the “endless wars.”

Ghost,; “These Christian Dispensationalists in Congress are taking to X/formerly-Twitter to call for the societal revulsion against all Muslims. Their underlying logic appears to be that Muslims desire to exterminate all non-Muslims, so we better exterminate them first.”

For an enlightening background on “radical Islam” vs spiritual Muslims devoted to peace… explains the British Empire’s hand in distorting Islam into its radical terrorist faction known as Wahhabism! Interesting how China has dealt with the radical vs non violent religion of Islam

The element that doesn't come up enough--as in, not enough to peel back all the layers and confidently find the truth--is the extent to which the theocratic regime in Iran is linked to British interests and banking. We know at the highest levels the regime is banked in London and owns expensive property there, however just about every two-bit despot around the world is banked in London since it serves as the center of global money-laundering. No surprise. We will see if the regime is de-banked like Russia has been, however. If not, then it is not a true enemy of London.

Further, the regime came to power JUST as the former Shah was squirming free of British contractual control of Iran's oil (> 50%), had signed up with OPEC, and was planning oil and gas links to Germany and France (who had invested in Iranian nuclear technology chains). The revolution ended the threat of Iran's assistance to the Continent right when Israel was on-track to have no major antagonists (only the PLO). Peace was breaking out with Egypt, and others wanted done with the Israeli wars now that the US had been thoroughly leashed as its supply engine; the USG has paid Israel the Dane-geld annually and at every crisis since 1973 to ensure the Jericho rockets stay in their silos with the nuclear genie. An "evil Ayatollah regime" in Iran was perfect to cement the goodguy-badguy duopoly for the next generations, while throttling Iranian industrial breakout of the colonial model.

It's important to acknowledge that from the perspective of any Iranians who wanted a pluralistic, modern Muslim Iran, what they got was in fact an "evil Ayatollah regime". Air-quotes are not necessary, real people have been real dead, and real money has gone to other parties who were as willing to keep the conflicts alive as Netanyahu and his billions for Hamas. What we forget is that Iran has a two-track administration: the Islamic head atop an IRGC body only cojoined with a secular head and the rest of the Iranian body politic. While the President can say whatever he wants, the IRGC will follow its plans with its own resources and people.

But now the apocalyptic Israeli sects are running out of time, and London could use a good, protracted war-shock to finally wreck the US economy, drag the US into a forever war, and sabotage the Arab finance centers that have fully taken off in recent decades. False-flag strikes on desalination plants and oil infrastructure push the Gulf states toward production shut-ins and responses that WILL level infrastructure, while a few missiles and drones lobbed at neighbors could draw them into a broader fight. I strongly suspect that the missiles (plural) that flattened the school were not accidental, and were handed to the US military by the CIA, which got them from Mossad, who as we know had the assassination division of labor.

To close this ramble, its worth noting that China is NOT monolithic, and has a similar dichotomy in the form of its "red families" that have exercised immense independent power throughout political and military structures. It is this parallel state that Xi began attacking when he came to power with his anti-corruption campaign, and it is THAT campaign that turned the Globalists (and the US) from treating China like the next inevitable empire to the next existential threat. While it seems the Globalists intended to replace the West with China for the next home of their Moloch-worshiping clans, Xi disagrees. Watch the timing, therefore, of events like Carney's agreements with China followed Xi's purges. Now that oil energy is being attacked, what do we see? More anti-corruption military purges, which means more attacks on remaining ties to Western money that could drag China back toward London.

That is to say, a Putin response to orient oil and gas east, where it pays, or for Chinese ships to still transit the Gulf, as they do, represent a lifeline to Xi contrary to Globalist chaos impulses. Similarly, Trump leashing Venezuelan oil means it is available (albeit at low initial flows) to the US, freeing the States from long-term oil shocks while setting Europe up for prolonged strangulation.

Anna's avatar

Excellent analysis! Your first part describing the dynamics of Iran, the Shah, the revolution, is pretty much how I remember it being played out in 78-79. The people generally in favor of a revolution, just not the one forced onto them.

The rest of your piece resonates with me, too.

The girls' school strike reminds me of the movie theater disaster in 78 (was it in Ahwaz or Abadan) where the theater was set fire by Savak and the exits closed, leaving the inhabitants inside to burn to death.

Thanks for your take!

I'm still learning, but if it smells right, then maybe we're closer to understanding the terrible mess the world's been subjected to for decades? We'll see. Other writing recently highlighted how Khomeini on exile in the '60s ended up in the hands of Turkish intelligence, which is to say CIA, which is to say MI6.... Setting him up as an incindiary scholar and then shipping him back as revolutionary would be *exactly* on-brand for London, considering that was precisely Lenin's trajectory (and Russia nearly died until Stalin kicked the Trotskyists out).

All that aside, intuition says the girls were effectively a human sacrifice to the molochian powers of the West, for their successful endeavor. God forbid!

Anna's avatar

Human sacrifice for sure! Tragic! Yes. God forbid! God protect us from this evil!

Featherjourney's avatar

Great comment!

But I see this current game board as freeing Russian oil for fair market value (denied by the sanctions), benefiting Russia instead of selling cheap oil through back channels. Same with Iran - sanctions enabling China to buy cheap oil (like with Venezuela!) now means China will soon have to play fair on the global oil market - which will curb China’s climb to superpower status.

Edit:

Of course the British Imperial Empire’s control doesn’t come up enough because MSM isn’t going to educate the public on the true identity of the Global Mafia.

Most of us now follow Promethean Action are the “enemy” is coming into clear focus

Remember when Trump said "Look for the oranges..."

The media mocked him for not knowing the word 'origins...' but the joke was on them because Trump knew exactly who he was talking about... the House of Orange. The royal families of olde Europe -- all tied together by intermarriage to the point their DNA is a real mess. Lots of them born with abnormalities that they don't want to talk about.

[They] are the ones who control CAI, MI6, Israel, Shah then Ayatollahs, much of US pre-Trump. City of London. British Cabal. Lots of names, lots of shady dealing... all ties back to the same evil roots.

I am encouraged that so many folks are now starting to understand this evil. You can't fight something that you can't see, and the Cabal has managed to stay under the radar for the most part. Trump knows... and he is leading the USA away from [their] clutches. And they are not happy about it...

On BB's emergent macro narrative: It is amazing how strategic Trump's "Drill BabyDrill" policy and his Tariff policy have positioned the US to be the major player in Bitcoin mining and AI, along with fueling continued industrial growth, even with trillions in capital investments in new production capability. All this while the globalist countries find themselves powerless and face lack. It was just dumb luck!!

Regarding the point about the fact it is all war narratives lately made me think of the scene early in Gone With The Wind. Scarlett I'Hara is flirting with the twins and says "War, war, war. This war talk's spoiling all the fun at every party this spring. I get so bored I could scream. Besides, there isn't going to be any war."

Obviously in the movie there is a war. But this could be an interesting meme to play with...

Wild Bill's avatar

There will be many fewer wars once Trump takes down the City of London and the British Cabal.
