Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, this evening:
“A good week to you, my brothers and sisters, citizens of Israel.
This morning, Israel and the United States launched a combined operation to remove the existential threat posed to Israel by the regime of the Ayatollahs in Iran.
“A good week to you, my brothers and sisters, citizens of Israel.
This morning, Israel and the United States launched a combined operation to remove the existential threat posed to Israel by the regime of the Ayatollahs in Iran.
As I told you this morning: This fateful operation will continue as long as necessary, and it requires patience.
I thank my friend, President @realDonaldTrump , for his historic leadership. He is a leader who stands by his word.
I thank my friend, President @realDonaldTrump , for his historic leadership. He is a leader who stands by his word.
I spoke with him again this morning, and I welcome the close cooperation between us, a cooperation that has brought the alliance between Israel and the United States to an all-time high, an alliance for peace and an alliance in war. And this war will lead to peace. A true peace.

A long account to settle.
In 1979 Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and a cadre of Iranian clerics established a terror theocratic regime, one that would bring death, destruction, and destabilization across the Middle East and far beyond its borders.
Within months of the revolution, militants aligned with the new regime stormed the United States Embassy in Tehran.
52 American diplomats and staff were taken hostage and held for 444 days.
In April 1980, a U.S. rescue attempt known as Operation Eagle Claw failed in the Iranian desert when two American aircraft collided, killing eight U.S. servicemen.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps was created to defend the revolution and export it beyond Iran’s borders by building and directing armed proxies, institutionalizing the use of irregular warfare and terrorism as instruments of state power.

I have established that Donald Trump's statement of war against Iran which was broadcast in the wee hours of this morning is an AI deepfake.

Oookay, the Compaq Presario 5528 is back on the desk! I wanted to spend some more time looking at the MPEG-1 decoder card under Windows 95 OSR 2.5. And I have good news! Time for a quick 🧵
As some may recall, here was the next thing I was going to try: copying over the Windows 95A Media Player to Windows 95 OSR2.5. But as it ends up, that wasn't necessary!! I'll explain.
I noticed something on my Win95 OSR 2.5 install. It looks like the Internet Explorer desktop update installed ActiveMovie Control. And it looks like it is using a default Microsoft software decoder. HOWEVER, notice that standard Windows Media Player is also installed!
I have lots of admiration of the journalists that wrote this article, but there are lot of strange elements to it.

No explanation is offered why a person who “holds strong gender critical beliefs” is not suitable to perform Professor George’s role (and without an explanation of what gender critical beliefs are - which would demonstrate whether journos know what they are).
Because it doesn't appear that the journos know what gender critical beliefs are. Gender being “set at birth” is the opposite to a statement of gender critical belief. It doesn’t seem like the journos fully understand this area.
Thread of MAGA influencers who once denounced intervention, supported Trump because he was “anti-war”, but now are fully pro-war today 👍

The Strait of Hormuz situation:
Reuters is now reporting that Iran is notifying vessels that it is CLOSING the Strait of Hormuz.
If officially closed, 20+ MILLION barrels of oil PER DAY will be impacted, or 20% of global supply.
What's next? Let us explain.

The Strait of Hormuz, between Oman and Iran, connects the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea.
This body of water controls ~20% of the world’s petroleum liquids consumption.
In other words, ONE FIFTH of global oil consumption flows through here EVERY DAY.

After US strikes on Iran last night, ships in the Strait of Hormuz are now receiving warnings.
As of 12:30 PM ET, the US has recommended ships avoid the Strait of Hormuz.
In their 2025 analysis, JP Morgan described this as their worst case scenario in an Israel-Iran war.
