In an instant, everything has changed.

For most of history, weapons have been top-down. Rulers tried to monopolize new technologies of violence, giving themselves an advantage over external forces that didn’t have them and their own subjugated populations. Nuclear bombs are emblematic of this historical pattern. Drones are transforming warfare from the bottom up, and will transform the relationship between the rulers and the ruled.

In three years, the Ukraine-Russia war has introduced a dramatic and dynamic new type of war, one that makes much of which has preceded it obsolete.

The numbers are difficult to pin down exactly, but we can make broad guesses based on media reports. Russia and Ukraine each fielded about 100 thousand drones in 2023; ten times that number, or 1 million, in 2024; and intends to field five times that number this year – – 5 million each. Ten million new drones in 2025!

The irrationality of the West with respect to Iran is illustrated by the following facts:

📌 Iran:

Does not possess nuclear weapons.

Is a party to the NPT (Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons).
-Allows IAEA inspections.
-Reports on the movement of enriched uranium.
-Under constant international pressure and sanctions.
-Declared a threat – only for the potential possibility of creating nuclear weapons.

📌 Israel:

De facto possesses a nuclear arsenal (estimates: ~80-200 warheads).Did not sign the NPT.
Does not allow international inspectors.
Completely classifies the nuclear program.
Receives support and military assistance from the West.

Declared a “stronghold of democracy” and allegedly a victim.

In other words, Iran, the one country that does not have a nuke and is abiding by international law governing nuclear weapons, is the villain, while Israel, who is flouting those laws, is being treated as the victim. Yeah, that makes sense.

As a child in grade school, I recall the fire alarm going off and rather than leaving the building in a fire drill, we were required to ‘duck and cover’ under our desks. Like this was supposed to save us if under nuclear attack. I’ve read several speculations over the past few years that nuclear weapons don’t actually exist; that Hiroshima and Nagasaki were fire bombed and there were/are no actual nuclear weapons. The lie that we do is speculated to have been intended to put fear in the hearts of the Soviets. Sound far fetched? OK. What about the moon landing that never happened? Did that not contribute to the space race that the Soviets lost and that bankrupted them in the process?

Perhaps nuclear weapons are real, perhaps not, but Vox Day makes a good logical point.

From Vox Day:

Let me get this straight. Atomic/Nuclear weaponry has supposedly been around since 1945. It’s very old, very basic technology that has been acquired by countries as underdeveloped as India, Pakistan, South Africa, and Israel.

Hypersonic missiles are so technologically advanced and difficult to manufacture that only four countries in the world have deployed them: China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran. The USA hasn’t successfully developed one yet, neither have Japan, France, or the UK.

And yet, we’re supposed to believe that Iran doesn’t already possess nuclear warheads to install on those hypersonic delivery systems?

I don’t buy it. If nuclear weaponry actually exists – and there is very good reason to doubt that it does – then Iran has it. If Iran doesn’t have it, then no one does because it doesn’t actually exist. The fact that nuclear weapons have been held over humanity’s collective heads for generations and used to justify globalist organizations for decades is sufficient reason for them to have been among the foremost myths perpetrated by Clown World.

  “Which war?” I hear you ask. Don’t play coy. You know very well which war. Many Gentle Readers have written me, asking for my “opinion” about it. The emails have been many and various in their approbations and condemnations, but all have urged me to state a position.

     Israel is doing what it must, and here are the reasons.

     A nation that possesses weapons of mass destruction and delivery systems that can wield them at long range acquires responsibilities along with those things. One of those responsibilities pertains to its rhetoric. Its rulers’ statements must be taken with full seriousness, especially their threats. Nation X must regard a threat from nation Y as equivalent to an actual attack. This was a component of American strategic doctrine for many decades.
