Pas vraiment d'accord avec le postulat de l'introduction. L'Iran des mollahs /pasdarans, par un opportunisme évident, a régulièrement récupéré le passé perse, y compris pré-islamique, jusqu'à produire des propagandes mettant en avant des légendes en rien liées à l'islam... 1/
Un exemple tout bête ?
La mise en avant régulière par le régime de Ferdowsi et son magnifique Livre des rois, véritable manifeste de la langue perse et véritable pilier du nationalisme du pays. L'ouvrage raconte l'histoire de la Perse jusqu'à l'arrivée de l'islam... 2/

Je n'utiliserai que des exemples récents. Ainsi, après les frappes israéliennes puis américaines de juin 2025, le régime a repris le mythique et légendaire archer Arash Kamangir...

3 interesting findings:
1. 88% of college students say they pretended to be more progressive than they are to succeed academically or socially. 80% of students say they submitted class work misrepresenting their real views to conform to the progressive views of the professor.

2. Intelligence is inversely correlated with pathological attitudes toward celebrities. In other words, people with lower IQ scores believe that if they meet their favorite celebrities, these celebrities would enjoy speaking with them, and that they'd have deep hidden connections
3. Women who self-identify as “feminists” exhibit much stronger preferences for premium beauty products as compared with non-feminist women. The practical purpose and effect of these investments is to help elite women stand out relative to female rivals.

Den Krieg im Nahen Osten als Horror-Szenario nutzend, war sein Narrativ:
Regierung, Konzerne und die Boomer würden die Jugend belügen.
Motto:
Ihr sollt nicht unser Land verteidigen, sondern die Gewinne multinationaler Konzerne durch koloniale Eroberungskriege steigern.

My proposal for re-establishing US deterrence in the Strait of Hormuz.
1. Iran’s tanker fleet is below, including 38 VLCCs which they depend on for their crude oil exports.
Issue an ultimatum to Iran: Every time you attack a merchant vessel, we torpedo one of your vessels.

2. They will attack a vessel anyway, because they won’t believe you’ll go through with it.
Immediately destroy one of their VLCCs.
Get nice footage.
Repeat.
After the first 5 VLCCs, they will begin to realize that they are going to run out of tankers to ship their oil.

3. After this, Iran will become increasingly dependent on 3rd parties to ship their oil.
US Treasury can exert pressure on these 3rd parties, and <cough> dissuade them from coming to the rescue.
If they don’t listen, seize a couple of vessels.
They’ll stop ballasting in.

1/ A Russian army officer who briefed Vladimir Putin yesterday on the evils of Telegram has been exposed as being a premium Telegram user who doesn't even have an account on the state-approved messenger MAX. Russian warbloggers have erupted in outrage. ⬇️
2/ During the briefing, Lt Col Irina Godunova, a Russian army communications specialist, told Putin that Telegram was "considered a hostile means of communication" and that work was ongoing to "refine MAX" so that "everything will work well on the front line".
3/ Telegram plays a crucial part in frontline Russian military communications, as the thread below highlights. Russian warbloggers, many of them soldiers serving in Ukraine, have vociferously protested the Russian government's apparent plan to block it.

I've read a lot of batshit crazy court transcripts in my day but I just received the transcript of the March 3 contempt hearing before Biden appointee Judge Jeffrey Bryan in Minneapolis. Bryan is desperate to hold Trump officials in contempt for...wait for it...not "immediately" returning personal items to illegal immigrants detained by ICE but then (of course) ordered released by Minneapolis judges.
Before I get to the details and parts of the transcript--important to note that Judge Bryan is married to Liz Kramer. She is the solicitor general of the state of Minnesota, appointed to that role by MN AG Keith Ellison. She is a party in numerous lawsuits against the Trump administration including related to immigration/ICE, which should automatically disqualify her husband from handling lawsuits of a similar nature.
But alas...
Not only does Liz Kramer work for Ellison, MN Gov Tim Walz just appointed Kramer to a plum position.
NOTHING TO SEE HERE.

Judges are demanding that immigration/DOJ officials IMMEDIATELY return personal items such as "cash, cellphones, jewelry, driver’s licenses, work permits, passports, clothing, and other identification and immigration documents," according to Judge Bryan.
Now keep in mind--many J6ers (and I assume they will post here to back me up) are still awaiting rthe eturn of items stolen out of their homes, cars, garages, offices during FBI raids. In fact, a J6er texted me yesterday asking if I could help get his passport back.
But some judges, including Bryan, are not only unlawfully releasing illegals under claims they are entitled to bond hearings (this was overturned by 5th circuit recently, not binding on MN, but very likely the last word by SCOTUS) but setting unreasonable deadlines for their return to MN, release, status reports, and other demands including return of property.
Bryan kicked off the fireworks by noting the unusual nature of such a hearing. (Rosen and Fuller are prosecutors out of US Atty office in MN).

So much to cover here. US Atty Dan Rosen off the bat confronted Judge Bryan about "smearing" his in an opening comment and noted that Judge Bryan issued 52 ORDERS IN ONE DAY on February 20 related to (mostly I believe) the return of personal belongings.
Bryan quickly jumped the shark and accused Trump officials of "stealing" the items lol

A new PET study in patients with treatment-resistant depression suggests something important - ketamine does not just act generally on glutamate - it appears to reshape AMPA receptor density in specific brain circuits. @DavidJoffe64 🧵
The researchers used [11C]K-2, a tracer that can visualize AMPA receptors in the living human brain.
That matters because AMPA receptors are a key part of glutamatergic signaling.
That matters because AMPA receptors are a key part of glutamatergic signaling.
For years researchers have suspected that ketamine’s rapid antidepressant effects depend on them. This study tries to show that directly in humans, not just in animal models.

Essa é uma breve história de um sacerdote espanhol que dedicou a vida ao trabalho educacional: fundou escolas, incluindo uma associação educacional, realizou missões voltadas à instrução dos pobres e muito mais — um homem santo e ardoroso em tudo que fazia.
Quando estourou a Guerra Civil Espanhola, paramilitares foram investigar a casa do sacerdote Pedro Poveda, e ele não receou em identificar-se, dizendo:
"Sou sacerdote de Cristo"
logo após o brado, foi assassinado, fuzilado por sua fé e pela causa da educação cristã.

1/ תמונת מצב נפט במפרץ לאור סגירת מצר הורמוז. מתחילים:
קודם כל, הסכנה הגדולה מסגירת המצר היא לא רק שהקונים לא יקבלו נפט בגלל תובלה ימית, אלא שהיצרנים עצמם עלולים שלא להיות מסוגלים להמשיך להפיק אותו. ועל פי דו"ח של JPM וכתבות ב-WSJ וב-Reuters, הבעיה הזאת תגיע מהר משחשבתי.
קודם כל, הסכנה הגדולה מסגירת המצר היא לא רק שהקונים לא יקבלו נפט בגלל תובלה ימית, אלא שהיצרנים עצמם עלולים שלא להיות מסוגלים להמשיך להפיק אותו. ועל פי דו"ח של JPM וכתבות ב-WSJ וב-Reuters, הבעיה הזאת תגיע מהר משחשבתי.
2/ הנפט כל הזמן נשאב מהאדמה בקצב ההפקה שלו. כאשר המיכליות מפסיקות להגיע כדי לאסוף אותו, הוא מתחיל להצטבר במכלי האחסון המקומיים. כשמיכלים מתחילים להתמלא, המפיקים צריכים להוריד את קצב ההפקה, כלומר לסגור בארות ושדות. לפי האנליסטים של JPM, מדובר במליוני חביות ביום של תפוקה אבודה.
3/ אבל סגירה של באר היא נזק כלכלי משמעותי, וראינו את זה כבר בקוביד כשנפט הגיע למינוס דולרים. לוקח שעות עד ימים כדי לסגור באר, ואז לוקח ימים עד שבועות כדי להפעיל אותה מחדש. בנוסף, ברגע שסגרתם, יש מצב שלא תצליחו להגיע לאותה רמת תפוקה ברגע שתפתחו שוב.
In 2015, Twitter was "the free speech wing of the free speech party" according to CEO Jack Dorsey, even avoiding collaboration with the NSA (unlike Google, Facebook). By 2019 it was one of the most censored, monitored, and controlled social media networks in the world.
YouTube was the biggest and most monetizable platform, Reddit the most important discussion forum, Amazon needed for authors and websites, and Google Search the only way to surface niche info sources. Twitter mattered as the social network of the intelligentsia.
In 2015, Twitter under Twitter general counsel Vijaya Gadde began reinterpreting their existing rules much more broadly and banned hate speech, to "keep Twitter safe." Chuck Johnson was banned for tweeting that would "take out" (attack digitally, not murder) a BLM activist.
