Disinformation is often discussed in theory. This is a real case.
One event, one place, real people, real consequences. The point here is not who is right politically, but how people can be pushed into acting against their own material interests.

Near Podgorica, residents blocked the construction of a wastewater treatment plant in Botun.
Police intervened. Arrests followed. Politicians reacted. At first glance, this looks like a familiar local conflict over infrastructure.

These kinds of disputes happen everywhere. Roads, power lines, factories, treatment plants.
They are usually messy, emotional, and local. Nothing about the situation itself is unusual.

The Sahaba Do Istigatha [Malik Al-Dar] 🧵 + authenticating of the story.
Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us, on the authority of al-A'mash, on the authority of Abu Salih, on the authority of Malik al-Dar, who said: He was the treasurer of Umar was eating.
He said: A drought struck the people during Umar's time. A man came to the Prophet's grave (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of God! Pray for rain for your nation, for they are perishing." The man was visited in a dream and told: "You are Umar, so convey my greetings to him and tell him that you will be given rain. Tell him: Be diligent! Be diligent!" So he went to Umar and told him, and Umar wept and said: "O Lord, I will not fail except in what I am incapable of."
Commentary: we will prove the authenticity of this narration and respond to Wahhabi objections bismillah. 🧵

To compensate for their failed disinformation operation about Ukraine's alleged attack on Putin's residence, the Russians are likely planning a new false-flag operation to derail US-mediated "peace talks", according to the Ukrainian Foreign Intelligence (SZR). 1/3
The SZR assesses a high risk of a shift from manipulation to armed provocation by Russian special services, likely on the eve of or during Russian Orthodox Christmas (7 January), possibly targeting a religious or other highly symbolic site in Russia or occupied Ukraine. 2/3
To fabricate "Ukrainian responsibility" for the attack, Russian security services may plant fragments of Western-made strike drones delivered from the frontlines. 3/3
🧵 My PSX Investing Journey (2021–2025) From newbie to conviction:
From PSX rookie to a 312% gains since 2022 powered by dividends, patience, and business-quality.

Phase 1: The Spark (Jun–Dec 2021)
Opened my PSX account mid-2021 after Tadawul experience (first buy: Saudi Aramco IPO in 2019). Read annual reports, watched the index, and traded actively. Beginner’s luck felt great… until it didn’t. Early mistakes: chasing hot tips, ignoring

fundamentals, over-trading.
Phase 2: The Wake-Up Call (late 2021)
Fatigue set in. Gains weren’t meaningful. Turned to global investing greats and realized: equity investing is a long-term game that rewards patience and discipline. New pillars: Margin of Safety, Owner Mindset,

The problem with Ayn Rand?
- ...Some might [...] say she gave us the mirror [individualist] version of communism...(And therefore not the true alternative, but the artificial mirror alternative)...

it's a better critique than "she had bad hair"!
Did Rand include all of biolology in her biology grounded philosophy?

1/9 Putin’s Russia has no plan in Ukraine.
After nearly 4 years of full-scale war, Russia is strategically losing but cannot afford to stop because stopping locks in defeat.
Fake stories about “strikes on Putin’s residence” show how desperate Moscow is

2/9 Russia launched this war to “demilitarize and denazify” Ukraine.
In plain terms that means regime change, a puppet government, a new constitution, and Russian troops turning Ukraine into a satellite state.
Today Russia is further from that goal than in 2022. How pathetic!

3/9 In March 2022 Russia occupied nearly 30% of Ukraine and fought near Kyiv.
Today after 4 years, over a million casualties, mobilization, and help from allies including North Korean troops, Russia holds about 20%.
That is a miserable failure.

Accused J6 pipebomber Brian Cole is claiming that he is entitled to release due to govt’s failure to obtain within the allotted time period either a proper grand jury indictment or a judge’s probable cause finding after a “preliminary hearing.” Odd situation. ...

Under Federal Rules, absent defense consent or “extraordinary circumstances,” you can’t detain someone > 14 days without a finding of probable cause, either by indictment or public preliminary hearing. Prosecutors prefer indictments because they’re secret. ...

Cole has been in custody since 12/4 on a criminal complaint. His initial appearance was 12/5. The mag judge set a detention hearing for 12/15, but didn’t mention a preliminary hearing. Seems like everyone assumed the govt would indict Cole by 12/15—but it didn’t. ...
