Iran's ultimate goal is to undermine the petrodollar by destroying America's allies in the Gulf, including Saudi Arabia. It can do this by destroying their water desalination plants.
Urgent Warning: To neighboring countries, Iran's restraint is over
BREAKING: Iran has directly targeted another Kuwaiti power generation and water desalination plant, triggering a massive fire, in response to a U.S. strike that destroyed Iran's Jask desalination plant and cut off drinking water to around 20 villages, according to Al Jazeera.
This marks the second tit-for-tat exchange targeting power generation and water desalination infrastructure in the past 24 hours.
Desalination plants are a high-value vulnerability due to the region's extreme dependence on them for drinking water (e.g., ~70% in Saudi Arabia, 90%+ in Kuwait/Bahrain, varying in UAE/Qatar/Oman). Many plants are coastal, near Iran, and often co-located with power facilities

"We will target the infrastructure belonging to the American-Zionist enemy--the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and its partners--in a way that will deprive America and its allies of the region's oil and gas for years."
In addition to the billions in federal aid, every US state is required to pay a kosher tax.
"Iran Plays the Stranglehold Game".. How Did It Halt Funding for the American War and Turn the Tables on the Gulf?
In a shrewd reading of the conflict's nature, Iran realized that striking America directly is futile as long as there are countries footing the bill for the war on its behalf. Therefore, it focused its strategy on cutting off the serpent's head, namely drying up the Gulf's funding sources.
The Mechanism of Iran's Game:
1. Preventing the Gulf from exporting oil, thereby depriving America of the financial backer for the war.
2. Targeting nearby American bases to capitalize on the geographical position.
3. The golden card of the Strait of Hormuz to subdue the Gulf states and force them to recalculate their positions.
-It's now a full-scale WORLD ENERGY WAR...among the world powers who are either pursuing world domination or trying to avoid economic collapse.
It's only a matter of time until a U.S. Navy warship is struck by an Iranian missile and sunk. In comparative historical terms, it's 1914, on the eve of world war. In 2026, the current Energy World War may exploded into a Kinetic World War.
Do Trump and our other national leaders understand that they are juggling flaming torches in a gunpowder factory on roller skates? Do they understand the global downside risk of escalating this war of choice?

DARK RITES Jewish Ritual Murder
"The essential message of the video "Dark Rites: Jewish Ritual Murder" is that accusations of Jewish ritual murder (often called "blood libel") are not baseless antisemitic myths or libels, but reflect a real, recurring historical pattern of Jews committing ritualistic murders of non-Jews (especially Christians/children) for religious or magical purposes, tied to holidays like Passover and Purim, and involving blood use, torture, and mockery of Christian symbols like the crucifixion."
Hamdy Mig- "Brother Henry, my sister and I live thanks to your contributions and donations. We have no source of income here, and we cannot buy food because it is completely unavailable and extremely expensive due to the blockade. We live solely on what you spend on us, and this is only enough for our daily food. We sometimes have to go for long periods without food to save money so we don't starve to death. If you stop your contributions, my remaining sister and I will die of hunger, as happens every day here, where we lose dozens to severe famine. Please help us and do not be complicit in the war against us. I beg you to understand my situation and help me."

Former hedge fund manager David Rogers Webb describes the goal of "The Great Taking"
"it's much darker than [they] just want to control people... It is about destroying populations... It's that they intend that you will not exist"
"It's not that they need your stuff. They can create unlimited amounts of money"
"It's not that they need your stuff or your money. It's that they do not want you to have have your stuff and your money"
"It is about subjugation of populations"
"It's even worse than being about control. Because they have control now. They have total control now"
"So what is happening now is beyond having total control. It is about destroying populations"
"So it's much darker than that [they] just want to control people"
"First people think it's that they want to make money. No, it's much worse than that. [Then they think] it's that they want control--no, it's much worse than that. It's that they intend that you will not exist"

UK: Conservative Politician Bludgeoned to Death in Her Home - Police Claimed It's Not Political
Conservative politician Ann Widdecombe was beaten to death in her home on July 11, 2026. She was 78 years old at the time of her death. She opposed mass migration, was a free speech advocate, and supported Brexit and Nigel Farage's Reform party.
Christine said (July 18, 2026):
Google AI: "In the Zohar (the primary book of Jewish mysticism) and related kabbalistic texts, Persia (modern-day Iran) is heavily linked to the turmoil of the "End of Days".
The King of Persia and Global WarsThe Zohar (especially in Parashat Va'era and Shelach-Lecha) prophecies that descendants of Ishmael will spark massive global wars prior to the coming of the Messiah.
Texts often describe a time when the leader of Persia attacks a foreign nation. This conflict is prophesied to bring widespread fear, panic, and chaos to the entire world, including the people of Israel.
The Birth Pangs of Redemption
When things seem darkest and the Persian regime unleashes immense devastation, the Zohar and associated Midrashic teachings state that God will tell the Jewish people: "Do not be afraid, the time of your redemption has arrived!"
This period of intense global chaos is seen as the final "birth pangs" (known as Ikvei HaMashiach) that clear the path for the arrival of the Messiah."
