BREAKING: Iranian state media says it has now “no choice but to obtain the atomic bomb” to remove “the military option for the occupation and partitioning of Iran” from the table, arguing Iran must “absolutely reach nuclear deterrence” before current negotiations can be conducted “from a correct position,” per Fars.
Iran adds the acquisition is not only driven by negotiation leverage but also by Trump’s two recent nuclear threats against Iran, including his April warning that “a whole civilization will die tonight” and his May threat of “one big glow coming out of Iran.”
This is also among the most direct nuclear weapons advocacy published on Iranian state media to date.
She said he would re-value gold to $20k by July 2026. I don’t see it happening next month, but maybe in the future. Maddog has been following a big trade in the futures/options market out in December @ $15-$20k.
Then you better build your new castle in Venezuela earthquake proof.
Sometimes I forget you have a lot of intelligence inside that adventurous head of yours.
The subject is a ongoing debate with the scientists. Those that argue solar fares don’t pass through the earths crust and that earthquakes will happen despite flares because of the plates and they don’t always move in harmony. Others see some possible relations to them like affecting the ionosphere and more. Etc etc etc etc etc and etc
My next door neighbor let his grass get a little too high. Talking over the fence he tells me he’s gone through three batteries for his electric mower and is still not going to be able to finish. 🙂

Prominent US war hawk John Bolton has pled guilty to violating the Espionage Act after previously demanding execution for whistleblowers Edward Snowden & Chelsea Manning and 176 years in prison for publisher Julian Assange.
As part of a plea agreement, Bolton admitted to unlawfully retaining sensitive national security information. He now faces up to 5 years in prison, up to 3 years of supervised release, a $2.25 million fine, forfeiture of his pension, and is due to be sentenced on 28 October.

Why is diversity only forced on the populations in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe?

Ipso – I’m with you. I guess all condo’s come with a free nightly fireworks show!
Goldie, Overton – today and tomorrow are potentially big days for earthquakes and volcanoes around the world after some massive solar activity in the last few days. We’ll see but the solar activity has been off the charts lately. Birth pangs.
Thanks for the site. Earthquakes or bigger ones seem to be more numerous buy haven’t looked into it. This one around the world not related to each other seemed different.
Have to be in geology or focused on one area. The reason is in some places there’s a balance between thinning and thickening via volcanoes, especially underwater and subduction zones. Other areas might be different. The earth core cooling over time might have something to do with it too but don’t quote me on that.
Watch professors experiment about the earths crust getting thin
About 37 mins in. This show was last year and he called quakes & volcanic eruption getting worse.
Strange for all these quakes in summer. We had a 5.6 in Calif about the same time as Venezuela. I got the alert on my phone but quite a distance away and with building codes generally things fall off shelves. Japan had a 6.9 then Venezuela but none related. Now another one in the mid east.
An earthquake 6.2 magnitude struck Afghanistan on Saturday, according to the National Centre for Seismology (NCS). Tremors were also felt across several parts of north India. The quake occurred at 7.04pm , it struck at a depth of 215 km beneath the surface, the NCS said.

BREAKING: US has launched massive attack, targeting Iranian military surveillance infrastructure, communication systems, air defense sites, drone storage facilities, and minelayer capabilities in response to Iran’s attack on a Panama-flagged tanker carrying more than 2 million barrels of crude oil that was transiting near the Strait of Hormuz this morning, per CENTCOM.
Get out in front of the crowd, where our gold goes a long way and they are forced to use dollars by the inevitable central bank that we’ll install?
It seems eventually we will colonize them for their oil assets if we still exist in a few years. Might be better living conditions for the average Venezuelan, if they don’t mind being slaves like we are.
I can hear Trump now, “about all that earthquake aid, you know it cost us a lot to send our military down there to help you guys out.”
I’d say moving to Iran is still a bit risky, might be a little early. 🙂
The on/off Iran war is still on I guess, and suddenly Russia is being forced to “escalate to de-escalate.”
Although they’ve been changing their numbers when it went in the billions. If Iran is cashing in their gold for dollars they better hope they don’t change the currency on them.
This is Venezuelas
One ounce of gold costs approximately 2,533,558 Venezuelan Bolívar Digital (VED/VES) based on official mid-market exchange rates. [1, 2]
Because Venezuela has historically restructured its currency multiple times to counter hyperinflation, the value looks drastically different depending on which historical version of the bolívar is referenced: [1]
Price by Currency Version
Bolívar Digital (VED / VES): ~2.53 million (The current currency launched in 2021, which cut six zeros from the previous version).
With zero damage .
That includes a 6.8 in Jan. 2024 , with epicenter about 25 miles away .
Concrete is very strong in compression , but weak in tension .
The home I was in has a concrete second floor and a 500 gallon water tank above that.
The rebar reinforced columns support the weight above the concrete first floor ensure maintaining compressive loading continuously , even during the seismic event .
In bending unloaded columns , the momentary outside of the bending column is in tension and cracks form , then a moment later the opposite side becomes tensile . The column fails and the structure collapses . The trick is maintining constant loading from above via gravity .
