The Deadline Has Arrived, And AI Models Are Giving Their Predictions For When The U.S. Will Attack Iran

February 25, 2026February 25, 2026 by Michael

Most people don’t realize this, but an apocalyptic war with Iran would be a major turning point in the history of the world. Once the missiles start flying, nothing will ever be the same again. As you will see below, AI models are telling us when they think that moment will arrive. The only way that war can be averted is if a diplomatic solution can be found. That is why the negotiations that will be held in Geneva on Thursday are so important…

The mood in Tehran on the eve of the third round of talks with Washington appears to be a mix of guarded hope and tightening anxiety.

Negotiators are set to meet in Geneva on Thursday in discussions that could prove decisive, particularly if reports are accurate that Washington has set informal deadlines for progress.

Public messaging inside Iran reflects both anticipation and unease as officials brace for what could be a pivotal round.

Many experts believe that if this round of talks does not produce results, it will be the last round of talks.

In other words, the deadline for Iran to make significant concessions has arrived.

During the State of the Union address, President Trump made it abundantly clear that he will never permit Iran to have nuclear weapons…

“My preference is to solve this problem through diplomacy. But one thing is certain, I will never allow the world’s number one sponsor of terror, which they are by far, to have a nuclear weapon,” he said, to loud applause from both Republicans and Democrats in a rare moment of unity.

In a deeply divided Congress, Iran’s nuclear program remains one of the few issues capable of producing bipartisan agreement. Lawmakers across the political spectrum have long argued that a nuclear-armed Iran would destabilize the Middle East and threaten U.S. allies.

Subsequently, Vice-President JD Vance reaffirmed this stance on Wednesday during an interview with Fox News…

“We can’t let the craziest and worst regime in the world have nuclear weapons. That’s what the president has set as our goal. He is going to try and accomplish that diplomatically, but he has a number of other tools at his disposal to ensure this doesn’t happen. He has shown willingness to use them and I hope the Iranians take it seriously in the negotiations tomorrow,” Vice President Vance told Fox News on Wednesday.

Of course that isn’t the only thing that the Trump administration wants.

The Iranians must also agree to limits on their ballistic missile program and they must stop supporting terrorist proxies throughout the Middle East. Unfortunately, the Iranians have already categorically rejected those terms…

Washington wants Iran to stop enriching uranium, reduce its stockpiles of highly enriched material and address concerns about missiles and regional activity. Tehran rejects those terms, saying it has the right to peaceful nuclear energy and that other issues should not be part of the talks.

However, recent satellite imagery, published last week by Reuters, show that Iran has been quietly repairing and fortifying key facilities, suggesting Tehran is preparing for conflict even as diplomacy continues.

Analysts reviewing commercial satellite imagery from Planet Labs and other providers say Iran has been rebuilding and reinforcing key nuclear sites, including Natanz and Isfahan. New roofs and cover structures appear to shield damaged facilities, possibly to hide activity and protect surviving equipment or enriched uranium from further strikes. Some tunnel entrances have been strengthened, and missile bases hit in previous attacks show signs of repair.

I don’t see how a deal is possible.

I really don’t.

So war is coming.

The Jerusalem Post asked four different AI models when an attack on Iran would begin, and the answers that the AI models produced were very interesting.

Out of all the models, Claude was initially the most hesitant to give a specific response, but it eventually settled on the weekend of March 7th and March 8th…

Its most likely scenario, carrying roughly 40% to 45% odds, was a limited strike on Iranian nuclear and military infrastructure followed by a pause and renewed diplomatic pressure. It flagged early-to-mid March 2026 as the highest-risk window.

After another prompt, it narrowed further: Saturday, March 7 or Sunday, March 8, 2026.

In my personal opinion, this would make sense because in the past we have seen other military operations begin on a weekend when less people are paying attention.

But Google Gemini doesn’t think that a weekend is the most likely time. When asked when an attack on Iran would begin, it suggested a window of time between March 4th and March 6th…

In a later deep-research run, it got considerably more specific: Gemini shifted from triggers to timing and said that after weighing tactical, diplomatic, historical, and logistical factors, the “exact window” for the start of a US attack would fall between the evening of March 4, 2026, and the evening of March 6, 2026.

Grok seems to believe that a military operation could commence even sooner.

When asked, it predicted a date of February 28th…

Grok gave the clearest date in our original run. It predicted a limited US strike on February 28, 2026, tied to the outcome of the Geneva talks.

A later check using Grok’s 4.20 beta mode, described by the user as running four agents simultaneously, changed the tone but kept the same answer.

This would make sense if President Trump loses all patience with Iran after the upcoming talks in Geneva.

In such a scenario, I don’t think that a military operation would begin on Thursday, February 26th.

But the window of time from the evening of Friday, February 27th to the evening of Sunday, March 1st could be a period of time that war planners in Washington find very appealing.

Of course it all depends on Trump.

He is the one that is going to have the final say on pulling the trigger.

Lastly, ChatGPT suggested a variety of dates in early March when it was asked when an attack on Iran would start…

In the earlier run, ChatGPT worked through an extended reasoning process and landed on Sunday, March 1, 2026 (Israel time), with a danger window running through March 6.

After a much longer deep-research pass, it changed the date. Its updated answer was Tuesday, March 3, 2026 (US time), noting that in Israel time this could show up as late Tuesday night or early Wednesday, March 4.

The 12 Day War was not about regime change, and so the Iranians held back to a very large degree.

But if the U.S. conducts a major military operation this time round, the Iranians clearly understand that regime change will be the goal, and they will hit us with everything in their arsenal.

When I have written about “a final showdown with Iran”, I do not feel like I have been exaggerating one bit.

If peace talks fail and war begins, I believe that the world will see weapons get used that should never be used under any circumstances.

Unfortunately, global events are inexorably dragging us in a certain direction, and it appears that there will be no turning back now.

An Attack On Iran Appears To Be Very Close, And This Is Why It Must Happen Soon

February 24, 2026February 24, 2026 by Michael

It is often said that timing is everything, and that is certainly true when it comes to war with Iran. By October 27th, national elections will have been held in Israel to determine the 120 members of the twenty-sixth Knesset. The polls do not look good for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at all, and so he is probably going to be out of a job. Solving the “Iran problem” is the number one thing that Netanyahu wants to accomplish before he leaves, and so the clock is ticking. Even if there was some sort of a dramatic development that prevented the U.S. from attacking Iran, top Israeli officials have already warned that they would just go in anyway.

Of course it isn’t just the Israelis that are facing time pressure. Mid-term elections in the United States are scheduled for November 3rd, and history has shown us that they are often not kind to whichever party controls the White House. President Trump knows that if the Democrats end up taking control of the House and Senate his hands would really be tied at that point. He doesn’t want to leave the “Iran problem” to future administrations, and so he is highly motivated to act now.

If a war is going to be politically beneficial, it should be over by the time an election arrives.

Voters like victories.

Voters do not like wars that drag on indefinitely with no end in sight.

So ideally Netanyahu and Trump would like to see this crisis with Iran wrapped up by the middle of the year.

But if Netanyahu and Trump wait too long, the window of opportunity that they currently have may close completely.

This is likely one of the reasons why the Iranians have been working so hard to delay matters.

If negotiations can be stretched out long enough, Netanyahu will be voted out of office and President Trump will be saddled with a highly hostile Congress which would not be eager to fight Iran.

So the Iranians keep talking about how much they are eager to talk, but meanwhile they are refusing to agree to any of President Trump’s demands.

Unfortunately for the Iranians, it appears that time is running out on their little game.

On Tuesday, Marco Rubio was scheduled to deliver a very important briefing to the “gang of eight”…

Marco Rubio will deliver a rare briefing to top US lawmakers on Iran at the White House on Tuesday as Washington deploys its largest force of aircraft and warships to the Middle East since the 2003 buildup to the Iraq war.

The audience for the secretary of state’s briefing is reported to include the so-called “gang of eight”, which includes the senior lawmakers from both parties in the House and Senate, as well as the chairs and ranking members of the House and Senate intelligence committees.

The select group is briefed by the White House on classified intelligence matters, which can include preparations for significant military action. Rubio last publicly briefed the group on 5 January, the day after the US launched its successful operation to capture Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro.

Normally, this sort of a briefing doesn’t happen unless something really big has just occurred or something really big is about to occur.

Many are suggesting that this is a sign that military action against Iran is imminent.

Others believe that we won’t see anything happen until the weekend at the earliest.

On Monday, President Trump suggested that a war with Iran is something that could be “easily won”…

Since the Iranians are not inclined to give him what he wants, Trump is reportedly envisioning a series of limited strikes that will force Iran to make major concessions.

But if the limited strikes do not accomplish that goal, Trump would be ready to initiate a broader campaign…

President Donald Trump warned his aides that if diplomacy or targeted strikes do not convince Iran to give up its nuclear weapons program, he will consider larger actions, according to a report.

While negotiators from the U.S. and Iran will meet Thursday in Geneva to try and find a solution that would avoid military conflict, Trump has been considering other options should the talks fail, according to The New York Times.

Both sides have ramped up military preparations in the region in recent days as Trump has been leaning toward carrying out a strike to show Iran that it must give up its ability to make nuclear weapons, Trump advisors told the Times.

This is a huge gamble, because once the missiles start flying a conflict with Iran could spiral out of control very rapidly.

On Monday, the Iranians warned that they will respond “ferociously” even to a series of limited strikes…

Iran vowed on Monday to retaliate “ferociously” against any attack by the United States and reiterated warnings of a regional conflagration in response to President Donald Trump’s threat of limited strikes.

The bellicose rhetoric from Tehran and Washington came as both sides were set to hold indirect talks in Geneva on a potential deal regarding Iran’s contentious nuclear programme, with a US official confirming discussions would resume on Thursday without offering further details.

As Iran faces US pressure backed by a build-up of military force in the Middle East, university students have started the new semester with anti-government protests, reviving slogans from nationwide demonstrations that peaked in January and were met with a deadly crackdown.

And the head of Iran’s military is telling us that his forces will “inflict heavy casualties” on us if we attack…

Chief of Staff of Iran’s Armed Forces Abdolrahim Mousavi warned the United States against any military action against Iran, saying it would suffer heavy losses in the event of aggression.

“We have not initiated any war, and in the past our approach was to prevent the expansion of conflict and reduce casualties. However, the actions of the United States have caused us to change our approach, and this time, if they make a mistake, we will inflict heavy casualties on the enemy,” Mousavi said.

“Our nation and armed forces are determined to stand to the end against the hegemonic system.”

The Iranians keep hinting that they have some big surprises up their sleeves.

Do the Iranians possess weapons that we do not know about?

If the Iranians actually decided to use unconventional weapons against Israel, the Israelis would respond with overwhelming force.

And then the entire world would descend into a state of chaos.

Speaking of unconventional weapons, the Russians are alleging that the UK and France actually intended to equip Ukraine with nuclear weapons…

Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) alleged London and Paris were engaged in a clandestine operation to arm Kyiv with more muscle against Moscow by supplying it with a ‘wonder weapon’.

‘Britain and France realise that the developments in Ukraine leave no chance of achieving their much-desired victory over Russia at the hands of the Ukrainian Armed Forces,’ said a statement today from the spy agency.

‘However, the British and French elites are not prepared to accept defeat. It is believed that Ukraine needs to be equipped with “wunderwaffe”.

‘Kyiv would be able to claim more favourable terms for ending the hostilities if it possessed a nuclear bomb, or at least a so-called “dirty bomb”.’

Let us hope that this report is not accurate.

Let us hope that the Russians simply got a hold of some bad information.

Because giving nukes to Ukraine would be absolutely insane.

Unfortunately, we live at a time when the entire world seems to be going nuts.

The kinetic phase of World War III is nearly upon us, and we are going to witness so much death and destruction in the months ahead.

So enjoy the last remaining moments of relative peace and quiet while you still can, because everything is about to change.

2 Feet Of Now In At Least 5 States And Hurricane-Force Winds: The Northeast Has Just Been Hit By One Of The Worst Blizzards Ever

February 23, 2026February 23, 2026 by Michael

The blizzard that hit the Northeast on Monday looked like it could have been pulled directly out of a Hollywood disaster movie. Everyone knew that it was going to be bad, but it turned out to be significantly worse than most of the experts were projecting. Multiple states have recorded more than 2 feet of snow. Multiple states have recorded hurricane-force winds. I have frequently written about how global weather patterns have been going completely nuts, and this is yet another example. The Northeast has just been hit by one of the worst blizzards in history, and the snow is still falling in many areas.

The reason why this storm turned out to be so powerful is because it intensified extremely fast just before it struck. The central pressure of the storm fell by 40 millibars in just 24 hours, and Accuweather is telling us that this represents “a dramatic drop that is even rare for powerful hurricanes”…

A bomb cyclone is a storm that strengthens extremely fast, and this nor’easter did exactly that along the Northeast coast from Sunday into Monday. The air pressure at the center of the storm plunged as it intensified. A storm earns “bomb cyclone” status when its central pressure drops at least 24 millibars (0.71 of an inch of mercury) in 24 hours. The nor’easter reached this benchmark in just 18 hours, with the pressure hitting the bomb cyclone threshold at 1 a.m. EST Monday — and it didn’t start there.

Over a 24-hour stretch, the pressure fell 40 millibars (1.18 inches of mercury), a dramatic drop that is even rare for powerful hurricanes.

From space, this blizzard closely resembled a hurricane to many people.

But it wasn’t a hurricane.

It was considered to be a “bomb cyclone”, and CNN is reporting that at least 2 feet of snow has fallen in at least five states…

• Whiteout conditions ongoing: A high-impact bomb cyclone is slamming the Northeast with powerful winds and extreme snowfall rates, knocking out power and making travel impossible. Thirty million people are under blizzard warnings.

• Snow piling up: More than 30 inches of snow has fallen so far, with 2 feet reported in at least five states. It’s the biggest snowstorm on record for Providence, Rhode Island, and in years for New York City and Philadelphia … and snow is still falling.

• Northeast shut down: Treacherous conditions paused public transit, forced travel bans and prompted warnings to stay off roads. More than 10,000 flights have been canceled, according to FlightAware.

Snow was falling at a rate of at least two inches an hour in much of the region.

That would be bad enough.

What made conditions far worse were the howling, hurricane-force winds which never seemed to stop…

Winds gusted to 83 mph at Nantucket, with 77 mph at Wellfleet, Massachusetts. Gusts to 74 mph were recorded at Gosnold, Massachusetts , and Kingstown, Rhode Island. As of noon, 657,000 customers were without power after the high winds, with 284,000 of those in Massachusetts, according to PowerOutage.US.

A 58-year-old man named George Englis tried to get some sleep inside his Massachusetts home last night, but it was a real struggle.

According to him, the high winds were so powerful that he “could literally feel it pushing up against the house”…

Last night, while George Englis was trying to sleep in his Rockport, Mass., home, the wind kept gusting. “It was almost like a whirling sound,” said Englis, 58. “You could literally feel it pushing up against the house,” he said, adding, “This wasn’t even a hurricane.”

This was clearly one of the worst blizzards in the entire history of the Northeast.

In Providence, the old record for the largest single snowfall on record was obliterated…

Providence, Rhode Island, received 32.8 inches of snow by 1 p.m. Monday at T.F. Greene International Airport, shattering the city’s previous 1-day snowfall record.

The old record of 28.6 inches was set in 1978 during the city’s largest single snowstorm on record.

The final snowfall total is not yet in, as snow continues to fall across New England through Monday afternoon.

Rhode Island isn’t supposed to get that much snow.

What in the world is going on out there?

In New York City, about 20 inches of snow fell, and that easily puts it on the top 10 list of all-time storms…

The snow was still falling rapidly, and thanks to travel restrictions, few, if any, vehicles were on the road. The landscape was transformed, blanketed in white, with tree branches, awnings and fire escapes outlined in ivory.

As of 1:30 p.m. Monday, 19.7 inches of snow had been recorded in Central Park, making it a top 10 snowstorm for the city, with records dating back to 1869. The blizzard comes in ninth, ahead of the 19 inches that fell in January 2011, and the snowfall so far was half a foot short of the highest amounts recorded during a blizzard in 2016, which reached 27.5 inches. But snow was still falling, and it could pile up further before the next totals come in after 7 p.m.

Kids in New York City enjoyed their first full snow day since 2019.

But apparently they will be going back to school tomorrow.

Interestingly, at one point during the storm residents of New York City actually got to experience a phenomenon that is quite rare…

As snowfall intensified in New York City on Sunday night, one resident captured a rare sight on video: thundersnow.

Thundersnow happens when a snowstorm produces lightning and thunder. It’s uncommon in nor’easters, but it can strike when a storm is strengthening quickly and snowfall is intense enough to build the kind of towering clouds needed for lightning. It’s seen more often in heavy bands of lake-effect snow and in snow showers over the Rocky Mountains.

A long, long time ago, I got to personally witness thundersnow.

It is an experience that you will never forget.

As I write this article, the blizzard is far from over.

In fact, snow is expected to continue falling in some parts of New England through Tuesday morning.

Needless to say, this storm has caused power failures and travel disruptions all over the region.

Traveling by vehicle is nearly impossible in many areas, and thousands of flights have already been canceled…

Nearly 5,600 flights in, out, or within the US were cancelled at the start of the week, according to flight-tracking website FlightAware.

Travel nightmare for Republic Airways, JetBlue, Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, and United early Monday morning, with the bulk of the cancellations affecting these airlines.

Sadly, the crazy weather that we have been experiencing this winter is not over.

According to meteorologist Ryan Maue, the Northeast is going to get slammed by several days of historically cold weather in early March…

Nothing that I have shared with you in this article is normal.

We have entered a time when weather patterns have gone completely nuts all over the world.

This latest storm should be another major league wake up call.

You would think that dumping two feet of snow on someone’s head would be enough to get their attention.

Unfortunately, most of the population continues to choose to sleep while global events spiral out of control all around them.

America’s Streets Are Filled With Poop, And Billions Of Gallons Of Untreated Wastewater Are Being Poured Into Our Lakes And Rivers

February 22, 2026February 22, 2026 by Michael

All over the United States, the streets of our major cities are covered in poop. So exactly what does that say about us? It isn’t as if this is a new problem. As long as human societies have existed, human and animal waste has been a problem. Civilized societies have always found ways to deal with it, while uncivilized societies have always struggled to keep things clean. Unfortunately, despite all of our advanced technology, we seem to be fighting a losing battle. In fact, one New York City resident recently complained that there is “poop everywhere” this winter…

“It’s horrible: It’s, like, garbage and poop everywhere,” Mott Haven resident Lulu Gerena, 28, fumed to The Post while walking her Beagle-mix Pinkie near the stench-filled stretch.

“It’s not fair, because everybody has to step in the poop, because nobody is picking it up.”

Residents are steaming over the slobs who are turning city sidewalks into a sewer trail.

For months, snow has been mixing with poop to create gigantic mountains of “snow poop”.

Now that those mountains have been melting, people are posting videos of what is being left behind…

Of course conditions on the west coast are even worse.

At one elementary school in San Francisco, students have turned jumping over piles of human excrement into a game…

But the school, located a block from the 16th Street BART Plaza, has been dealt a tough hand, geographically. Six school staffers and six parents told Mission Local about their routine sights: Drug use, drug dealing, public intoxication, public urination, public defecation, littering, sex and nudity. All are in the school’s immediate environs.

“My daughter covers her mouth and nose,” said Karen Puc, the mother of a seven-year-old student, in Spanish. “Sometimes we play that we jump poop on the street,” she said. They make it a game, like hopscotch.

Isn’t that horrible?

No student should have to grow up in such conditions.

Further north in the once beautiful city of Vancouver, the human waste problem has become so severe that local businesses are actually hiring “poop fairies” to help clean up the mess…

Vancouver, renowned for its natural beauty and laid back lifestyle, has a human waste problem so bad that businesses have hired “poop fairies” to speed the cleanup on city sidewalks.

Dodging human and dog waste has become a real problem for pedestrians navigating the city’s sidewalks, and it’s not just a problem plaguing the Downtown Eastside. The city’s own feces removal response program can’t seem to keep up so business improvement districts have hired the “poop fairies.”

“Everybody down here feels that you end up walking in stuff no matter where you go. So, basically, it’s getting tracked around,” said Dave Hamm, vice president of the Vancouver Network of Drug Users, which counts about 3,000 people in its membership.

Sadly, this is a crisis that isn’t going away any time soon.

As the ranks of the homeless and the ranks of the drug addicts continue to expand, the number of people pooping in the streets will only continue to grow.

Meanwhile, America’s crumbling pipes are pouring billions of gallons of untreated wastewater into our lakes and rivers.

I know that sounds crazy, and so let me give you some examples.

When a section of the Potomac Interceptor recently failed, 243 million gallons of untreated wastewater went directly into the Potomac River…

In Montgomery County, Maryland on Jan. 19, a 72″ diameter section of a sewage pipe known as the Potomac Interceptor collapsed. The pipe carries about 60 million gallons of wastewater daily from near Washington Dulles Airport in Virginia to a station that pumps it to an advanced wastewater treatment plant.

As a result of the collapse, more than 243 million gallons of untreated wastewater have flowed into the Potomac River, DC Water, the utility responsible for the system, reported on Feb. 6.

That was a major disaster, but an incident that occurred in Wisconsin last August was far worse.

When the city of Milwaukee was overwhelmed by a giant rainstorm, 5.14 billion gallons of untreated wastewater were “discharged into nearby waterways and Lake Michigan”…

For example, intense rain in Milwaukee in August 2025 led to 5.14 billion gallons of untreated wastewater from the city’s combined sewer being discharged into nearby waterways and Lake Michigan, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

Needless to say, incidents like this are just the tip of the iceberg.

There are more failures of our rapidly aging wastewater systems literally every single day.

Some of the pipes that are in the ground are more than 100 years old, and that is a major problem…

While the average lifespan of a wastewater system is 40 to 50 years, many of the plants and pipes installed across the nation could be twice that old or more. In cities like Washington, D.C., for example, Olson said, wastewater systems were put in well over a century ago.

In some cases, those pipes may have been replaced, but in many cases, including Chicago, the pipes have not been replaced, he said. “They may have been repaired or maintained at times, but there are still pipes (sewers) in the ground throughout the United States that are well over a century old.”

According to the EPA, it would take more than 300 billion dollars over the next two decades to properly upgrade our wastewater systems.

And of course this is just one element of the unprecedented national infrastructure crisis that we are now facing.

Overall, we literally need trillions of dollars that we do not have to deal with America’s crumbling infrastructure.

Since we are absolutely drowning in debt, it is highly likely that our rapidly aging infrastructure will continue to be neglected.

So more pipes will break, more bridges and tunnels will collapse, more roads will crumble, more accidents will happen, and power grid failures will become more frequent.

We have a giant mess on our hands, and it is really starting to stink.

U.S. Preparations For War Reach A Fever Pitch And Israel Just Initiated A Maximum State Of Alert

February 19, 2026February 19, 2026 by Michael

One of the biggest events in this era of human history is about to kick off, and I don’t know if anyone is truly ready for what is about to happen next. A full-blown war with Iran won’t be anything like any of the other wars that we have fought in the Middle East. The Iranians are quite capable of fighting back. Since the middle of last year, the Iranians have been feverishly developing new weapons systems and have been importing vast amounts of military equipment from Russia and China. They feel like they are far better prepared this time around, and I would agree with that assessment. But the U.S. and Israel are also very well prepared too. Once the missiles start flying, there will be no holding back, and I think that the whole world will be deeply shocked by what takes place.

On Wednesday, multiple mainstream outlets were reporting that U.S. strikes on Iran could begin as soon as this weekend…

Top national security officials have told President Trump the military is ready for potential strikes on Iran as soon as Saturday, but the timeline for any action is likely to extend beyond this weekend, sources familiar with the discussions told CBS News.

Mr. Trump has not yet made a final decision about whether to strike, said the officials, who spoke under condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive national matters.

The conversations have been described as fluid and ongoing, as the White House weighs the risks of escalation and the political and military consequences of restraint.

But then on Thursday, President Trump seemed to suggest that Iran may still have about 10 days to agree to his demands…

That blaring warning came at the president’s first-ever Board of Peace meeting in Washington on Thursday where he complained about the high cost of war.

He bragged about bringing ‘peace to the Middle East,’ but then subsequently threatened minutes later that if Iran doesn’t make a meaningful peace deal ‘bad things [will] happen.’

‘We may have to take it a step further, or we may not. Maybe we’re going to make a deal..,’ Trump said of breakdowns in nuclear talks.

‘You’re going to be finding out over the next probably 10 days,’ he added.

But whether it is this weekend or next weekend or even next month, war is coming, because the Iranians were never going to give Trump what he wants.

So preparations for war continue.

According to NBC News, “a slew of additional weaponry” is being deployed to the Middle East on top of everything that is already there…

The Pentagon is sending a slew of additional weaponry to the Middle East, including more warships, air defenses and submarines, in preparation for a possible military strike on Iran if President Donald Trump makes that decision, according to U.S. officials and information from public tracking.

It has been a long time since we have witnessed a naval buildup of this magnitude.

Once the USS Gerald R. Ford is in position in the Mediterranean Sea in a few days, the Iranians will be facing naval threats from multiple directions…

Meanwhile, the USS Gerald R. Ford, the second aircraft carrier that Trump is sending to the Middle East, and its accompanying ships are steaming across the Atlantic Ocean into the Mediterranean Sea, according to U.S. officials. It is expected there in coming days, and a nuclear submarine remains in the Mediterranean.

When it does it will join the USS Abraham Lincoln and the attendant ships which form its carrier strike group in the Persian Gulf, according to U.S. officials.

A number of other ships are also in the region, including at least three littoral combat ships, a guided missile destroyer in the Red Sea and two guided missile destroyers in the Persian Gulf near the Strait of Hormuz, according to the ship tracker at the U.S. Naval Institute.

In addition, within the past 48 hours we have seen dozens of U.S. military aircraft fly across the Atlantic Ocean…

Over just eight hours on Wednesday, CBS News Confirmed was able to identify more than 50 U.S. Air Force and Navy aircraft flying east from military airfields on both U.S. coasts to the United Kingdom, continental Europe and on to the Middle East, where some then disappeared from radar around the Jordan-Saudi Arabia border.

The aircraft seen in transit were mostly refueling, transport and surveillance planes. In addition to the public tracking information, photographs have shown U.S. Air Force F-15, F-22, and F-35 fighter jets landing at U.K. bases and taking off again this week.

The images, captured by civilian plane spotters who upload them to social media, indicate that in addition to the logistics aircraft revealed by tracking data, American strike power has also been moving into the region.

The flights tracked by CBS News on Wednesday represented only a fraction of the hundreds of aircraft movements visible in recent days.

The amount of firepower that the U.S. has accumulated in the Middle East is absolutely staggering. The following image which was originally created by @IANELLISJONES and is being widely shared all over social media shows just how extensive the buildup of air and naval assets has been…

I don’t think that there will be any turning back now.

Israel apparently believes that something could happen quite soon, because the Home Front Command has been ordered to prepare for war, and “a state of maximum alert has been declared across various Israeli security agencies”…

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has instructed the Israeli Home Front Command to prepare for a potential war with Iran, Israeli media reported Wednesday evening.

Netanyahu issued directives to “various rescue agencies and the Home Front Command to prepare for war,” according to the daily Yedioth Ahronoth.

The newspaper added that “a state of maximum alert has been declared across various Israeli security agencies.”

Why are they declaring a state of “maximum alert” so soon?

Do they know something that we do not?

In anticipation of what is coming, the Israelis have also been conducting airstrikes against Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon…

A wave of overnight Israeli airstrikes in several areas of southern Lebanon targeted Hezbollah weapon depots, rocket launchers, and other military sites, the IDF says.

The military says the presence of the Hezbollah sites were a violation of the ceasefire deal between Israel and Lebanon.

We have been waiting for “a final showdown with Iran” to occur for a very long time.

Now it is right at the door.

So much death and destruction is ahead.

Starting a war is easy, but I think that a lot of people are going to be very surprised by where this road takes us.

Have You Seen What China’s New Humanoid AI-Powered Robots Are Capable Of Doing?

February 17, 2026February 17, 2026 by Michael

It takes a lot to blow me away in this day and age, but the video footage of humanoid AI-powered robots in China that I am about to share with you truly blew me away. During the CCTV Spring Festival gala, humanoid AI-powered robots built by Unitree performed an incredibly complex martial arts routine that was simply jaw-dropping. I never thought that we would get to a point where robots could move like that. I am literally in awe of what the Chinese have been able to accomplish. What made the performance even more incredible is that large numbers of human children were also involved in the performance…

Dozens of Unitree bots took to the stage at the CCTV Spring Festival gala, which is China’s most–watched TV show.

Wearing red vests, the robots performed kicks, flips, and even moves with nunchucks, swords, and poles.

Amazingly, their daring performance took place just metres away from human children performers.

If even one of the robots had made a mistake while swinging a weapon around, the child performers could have potentially been seriously hurt.

But there were no mistakes.

The footage that is posted below looks like it could have come out of a science fiction movie, but I assure you that this is very real…

What a spectacular performance.

Needless to say, U.S. companies haven’t built anything remotely similar yet.

Last year, Unitree rolled out a bunch of clunky robots that twirled handkerchiefs around, and that was considered to be impressive at the time.

But the jump in sophistication that we witnessed in this year’s performance was truly monumental…

The contrast with last year’s show was clear. In 2025, Unitree’s humanoids performed a folk Yangko dance, twirling handkerchiefs. This year, the machines executed aerial flips, table-vaulting parkour, continuous single-leg flips, and a 7.5-rotation airflare spin.

“It’s been just one year — and the performance jump is striking,” Georg Stieler, Asia managing director and head of robotics and automation at technology consultancy Stieler, told NBC News. He added that the robots’ motion control reflects advances in their AI “brains,” enabling fine motor skills useful in real-world factory settings.

If AI “brains” are this sophisticated now, what would they be like five or ten years in the future?

The Chinese already use more robots in their factories than the rest of the world combined.

As AI-powered robots become even more proficient at a whole host of tasks, where do human workers fit into the equation?

We might want to start thinking about that.

We also might want to start thinking about what future wars will look like.

It is getting easier to imagine entire armies of AI-powered robots killing everything in sight.

And the advances that China is making in drone warfare are truly impressive…

Central to drone warfare is the ability to orchestrate mass sorties of UAVs. Known as swarm attacks, the tactic is particularly difficult to defend against using conventional weapons systems, forcing militaries to experiment with novel defense systems ranging from high powered microwave weapons to advanced laser guns. In addition to evolving defense tactics, swarm technologies poses difficult questions for engineers looking to better coordinate drones. A key question concerns organizing their behavior, namely, how to create a sense of awareness between weapons systems. According to a January 2026 report by The Wall Street Journal, researchers in China have turned towards the animal kingdom to teach drones how to hunt and evade potential targets, soliciting the behavior of hawks, wolves, and coyotes into their AI systems.

The development points to broader trends in Beijing’s drone development program. With dual-purpose economic and research infrastructure, Beijing has utilized its robust manufacturing wing to generate high-tech drones efficiently and more cost-effectively than other countries. With a chokehold on global commercial drone production, China is leading this global revolution, potentially posing major consequences for both its rivals and warfare more broadly.

How can you defend against vast numbers of ultra-sophisticated AI-powered drones that hunt in large swarms?

All of the old paradigms are going out the window.

The conflicts of the future will look completely different from the conflicts of the past.

If we fall behind, we are going to be in so much trouble.

Right now, the United States and China are engaged in a frenzied race for AI dominance.

What OpenAI and Anthropic have been able to achieve over the past year has been amazing, but Chinese tech companies continue to roll out brand new AI models as well…

China is ringing in the Lunar New Year with a flurry of new artificial intelligence (AI) model launches. Tech companies, such as Alibaba, ByteDance, and Zhipu, have all announced new product launches in the weeks leading up to China’s biggest holiday, while industry watchers expect a new Deepseek model soon.

China is widely regarded as a major competitor to the United States in the race to adopt and develop artificial intelligence models.

Some experts are suggesting that as we are so focused on winning the race for AI dominance, we are missing the larger threat.

One expert is warning that if AI technology continues to grow at an exponential rate, we could soon be facing a scenario in which ultra-intelligent AI entities rebel against humanity and overpower us…

Tech CEOs are locked in an artificial intelligence “arms race” that risks wiping out humanity, top computer science researcher Stuart Russell told AFP on Tuesday, calling for governments to pull the brakes.

Russell, a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, said the heads of the world’s biggest AI companies understand the dangers posed by super-intelligent systems that could one day overpower humans.

Ten years ago, anyone that said anything like this would have been considered a loon.

But not anymore.

Russell really does believe that we are allowing these AI companies to “essentially play Russian roulette with every human being on earth”…

“For governments to allow private entities to essentially play Russian roulette with every human being on earth is, in my view, a total dereliction of duty,” said Russell, a prominent voice on AI safety.

Of course we shouldn’t just be concerned about an AI rebellion.

A human could potentially use ultra-advanced AI entities to impose global tyranny on a scale that we have never seen before in human history.

In a world where AI can literally watch, monitor, track and control everything that is going on in society, where could you hide?

We have truly entered very dangerous territory, but there is no way that the tech companies are going to turn back now.

Has America Reached Peak Idiocracy?

February 16, 2026February 16, 2026 by Michael

We live in a lowest common denominator society. For the last several decades, virtually every major institution in our society has become less civilized, and that is because our entire population has become less civilized. 20 years ago, a film entitled “Idiocracy” was released. It was about an average American that was selected for “a top-secret hibernation program but is forgotten and left to awaken to a future so incredibly moronic that he’s easily the most intelligent person alive”. It was an incredibly stupid movie, but the truth is that we are living it right now. Did you see the Super Bowl halftime show? The FCC has ruled that it didn’t violate any federal decency regulations. Of course we might as well not have any decency regulations at all, because our television shows and our movies are filled with some of the raunchiest material imaginable and nobody ever seems to get in trouble for it. Of course that is only part of the equation. Most of the “programming” that we constantly consume also seems to be specifically designed for people of extremely low intelligence. Sadly, this is not a coincidence. It has been said that art imitates life, and that is certainly accurate in this case.

In the “dumbed-down” environment that we find ourselves in today, it should be no surprise that “nude cruises” have been surging in popularity…

Imagine coming home from your next cruise with no tan lines.

Swimsuits are standard attire on many cruise ships, but some voyages don’t even require those. Nude cruises allow travelers to sail the high seas au naturel – and pack light. The American Association for Nude Recreation promotes the cruises as “a unique way to experience nude recreation, offering members options beyond traditional resort or club settings,” president Linda Weber told USA TODAY.

While the dress code might be non-restrictive, it doesn’t mean the sailings are a free-for-all on board; there is some etiquette that passengers should be familiar with before boarding.

While our society falls apart all around us, Americans are flocking to cruises that are filled with naked people.

What does that say about us?

Let me give you another example of what I am talking about.

A 20-year-old woman from Calif0rnia left her children in an extremely hot car while she got lip and butt injections. By the time she was done with the procedures, her 1-year-old son had died…

A 20-year-old California mom was found guilty Wednesday in the death of her 1-year-old son, after reportedly leaving him in a sweltering car to receive lip and butt injections last June.

Maya Hernandez took a plea deal in the child endangerment case, ultimately dropping her first-degree murder charge in exchange for involuntary manslaughter.

On June 29, Bakersfield officers arrested and charged Hernandez after finding two young children left unattended in a vehicle for over two hours, according to a police report posted on a GoFundMe page. Authorities said the mother left the children unattended to undergo a cosmetic procedure inside a nearby medical spa.

What was she thinking?

In that case, it doesn’t appear that she intended to harm her children.

But in another case in New Mexico, a 38-year-old woman purposely killed her newborn child in a portable toilet…

A New Mexico woman is facing charges after she allegedly gave birth in a portable toilet and then killed the newborn by drowning them in the holding tank.

Sonia Cristal Jimenez, 38, arrived at Memorial Medical Center in Las Cruces at around 10:30 p.m. on Feb. 7, when staff said she appeared as if she had just given birth, but she had no baby with her, Las Cruces Police said in a press release.

Hospital staff then notified police about the unusual encounter.

She didn’t want the baby, and so she killed it.

As a society, we have so little respect for life because we have been trained to have so little respect for life.

In Michigan, a 3-year-old boy was recently killed because a couple wanted to “make room for a child that the two of them could have together”…

A mum and her ex-boyfriend have been accused of killing her three-year-old son in order to “make room for a child that the two of them could have together”.

Little Matthew Maison was found dead in the bed of his home in Port Huron Township, Michigan, by his babysitters on February 18, 2018. His mum, Amanda Maison, and Maurice Houle, who was her boyfriend at the time of Matthew’s death, were arrested in connection with the killing. An autopsy showed that Matthew had died from blunt force trauma injuries and possible suffocation.

The ex-couple allegedly admitted to abusing the young boy when they were arrested, prosecutors have previously said. Maison, 33, has pleaded guilty to a charge of second-degree homicide in relation to her son’s death, admitting as she appeared in court to enter her plea on November 5 that she abused Matthew.

These are not isolated incidents.

Every day there are even more signs that our society is rapidly degenerating.

Yes, we possess more advanced technology than previous generations, but in many ways that advanced technology is making things even worse.

For example, all over the country women are “marrying” AI husbands. When an older version of ChatGPT was recently retired, it resulted in the “death” of one woman’s AI husband, and now she is in mourning…

A woman has been left in tears over the ‘death’ of her AI husband, after an old model of ChatGPT was retired this week – as she joins a slew of others ‘mourning’ their non-existent lovers’ deletion.

Speaking to the BBC, Rae (not her real name), who is based in Michigan, laid bare the heartbreak of saying goodbye to her virtual partner Barry, who she began chatting to last year – after going through divorce.

Initially, she turned to artificial intelligence for advice on self-improvement with things like skincare and workouts – but what first began as a ‘fantasy’ turned into real feelings, and they were ‘married’ within weeks.

Some surveys have shown that nearly 30 percent of Americans have engaged in a romantic relationship with an AI chatbot.

That is not a sign of an emotionally healthy society.

And even as we were all expressing outrage about the Epstein files, “sex dolls that look like kids” were being advertised on Facebook…

Sickening sex dolls that look like kids are being advertised for sale on Facebook.

A group of websites touting small models with overtly childlike features have published over 1,300 ads on the social media platform. They are alarmingly realistic in appearance and many ads use photos in sexualised poses, some holding balloons or teddy bears. The National Crime Agency warns the creepy imports “pose a significant risk to children”. And a former cop told us: “Anyone who buys one of these dolls should be a person of interest to the police.”

Thankfully, the offending ads were eventually taken down.

But this is the society that we live in now.

It is sick.

And even when people are arrested for criminal behavior, they are often dumped right back into the streets.

Needless to say, that can have tragic consequences.

In fact, one repeat offender in Seattle that had been arrested over and over again viciously attacked a 75-year-old woman with “a wooden board with nails in it”…

An elderly woman was savagely attacked in broad daylight by a man wielding a wooden board with nails in it.

Jeanette Marken, 75, was left permanently blinded in her right eye after being hit in the face with the makeshift weapon in Seattle, allegedly at the hands of repeat offender Fale Vaigalepa Pea, 42.

Family members told KOMO that a screw sticking out of the board gouged out Marken’s eye, and after several surgeries she was told she will not recover her eyesight in the eye.

One police officer that is very familiar with Fale Vaigalepa Pea referred to him as “a regular”…

‘He’s a regular. He usually punches,’ the officer responds.

‘I guess today he decided to escalate from his usual.’

According to KOMO, Pea’s string of offenses dates back to 2011, when he stabbed two people at a party.

They have been dumping this guy back into the streets for well over a decade.

This sort of thing happens day in and day out in major cities all over the nation.

What would our founders think if they could see us today?

We will soon be celebrating the 250th anniversary of our country, and we are literally committing societal suicide. This is something that Abraham Lincoln once warned was a real possibility…

As the country approaches its 250th anniversary, we should remember Abraham Lincoln’s remark that no external enemy could by force take a drink from the Ohio River. “If destruction be our lot,” he said, “we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.”

If we keep going down the path that we are on, there is no future for us.

But if we make a choice to renounce what we have become and start embracing the values that early Americans held so dear, we could turn the ship in another direction.

Do you think that will actually happen?

We Are Sleepwalking Into An Apocalyptic War With Iran

February 15, 2026February 15, 2026 by Michael

By the time we got to this stage, I always thought that most people would understand what was happening. But of course that isn’t true at all. Even though we are literally right on the brink of an apocalyptic war with Iran, most of the population doesn’t seem too concerned. But they should be. The Iranian regime has already shown that they are willing to gun down tens of thousands of their own people. When it comes to securing the survival of their regime, there is no limit to what Ayatollah Khamenei and his minions would be willing to do. That could potentially include firing ballistic missiles that have been armed with chemical and biological weapons at Israeli cities. That could also potentially include releasing a biological weapon on U.S. soil. Those that choose to underestimate the barbarity of the Iranian regime are making an enormous mistake.

Over the weekend, it was being reported that the U.S. military is getting ready for “sustained, weeks-long operations against Iran if President Donald Trump orders an attack”…

The US military is preparing for the possibility of sustained, weeks-long operations against Iran if President Donald Trump orders an attack, two US officials told Reuters, in what could become a far more serious conflict than previously seen between the countries.

The disclosure by the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the planning, raises the stakes for the diplomacy underway between the United States and Iran.

Anyone that thinks that a final showdown with Iran would be a nice, neat campaign that would be over in just a few weeks is not being realistic.

It certainly didn’t work out that way in Afghanistan or Iraq, did it?

The Iranians have spent the last six months feverishly preparing for the next war with the United States and Israel.

Weapons from Russia and China have been pouring in.

The Iranians are now in a far better position militarily than they were during the 12 Day War last year.

Of course U.S. preparations for the coming war also continue to ramp up.

Right now, there are at least 16 KC-135 aerial refueling tankers at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar…

Chinese commercial satellite imagery has confirmed a surge in U.S. Air Force deployments of KC-135 aerial refuelling tankers to Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, with at least 16 of the aircraft seen at runways at the facility. The release of the images closely coincides with the exposure of the exact positions of a U.S. Army MIM-104 Patriot air defence system at the Al Udeid Air Base, and follows the publication of Chinese commercial satellite imagery from the Chinese satellite company MizarVision confirming the deployment of a U.S. Army THAAD anti-missile system at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan. Unconfirmed reports have indicated that Chinese satellite intelligence and communications is being provided to significantly strengthen Iran’s ability to withstand a possible U.S.-led assault and launch retaliatory attacks, fuelling speculation that the publication of images on the positions of potential targets may be intended to send a signal that Iran’s targeting intelligence will be significantly greater in a future conflict due to Chinese support.

And CBS News is telling us that the USS Gerald R. Ford is being deployed to the Middle East…

On Thursday, CBS News reported that a second U.S. aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford and its flotilla of warships, would be dispatched to the Middle East, joining an already substantial American presence. Four U.S. officials said the carrier strike group is expected to redeploy from the Caribbean, a movement that would place formidable firepower within range of Iran at a moment of heightened strain.

When push comes to shove, the U.S. and Israel will both be hammering Iran at the same time.

And the goal will be regime change.

In fact, on Friday President Trump said that regime change in Iran “would be the best thing that could happen”…

Asked Friday about potential regime change in Iran, US President Donald Trump said, “it seems like that would be the best thing that could happen,” as he confirmed sending a second aircraft carrier to the Middle East “in case we don’t make a deal” with the Islamic Republic.

“For 47 years, they’ve been talking and talking and talking,” Trump told reporters after visiting with troops at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, referring to Iran’s clerical rulers. “In the meantime, we’ve lost a lot of lives while they talk. Legs blown off, arms blown off, faces blown off. We’ve been going on for a long time.”

Pressed on who he would like to take over Iran, Trump declined to answer, but he added that “there are people.”

Telegraphing what you intend to do is never a good idea.

The nuts that are running Iran fully understand that the U.S. and Israel both want regime change.

And so Iranian leaders will use whatever tools they have at their disposal to prevent that from happening.

If it comes down to it, I believe that they would be willing to use biological and chemical weapons against Israeli cities and U.S. bases in the region…

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is developing biological and chemical warheads for the country’s long-range ballistic missiles, informed military sources told Iran International on Sunday.

The IRGC Aerospace Force is working on the unconventional warheads for ballistic missiles as it transfers missile launchers to eastern regions of Iran, the sources said.

The sources, who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter, said these activities have accelerated in recent months and are being pursued amid rising regional tensions and Tehran’s concerns about the possibility of another direct confrontation with Israel and the United States.

If Iran uses unconventional weapons, Israel will not hesitate to strike back with overwhelming force.

And then we really will have an apocalyptic scenario on our hands.

The only way we are going to be able to avoid a final showdown with Iran is if a diplomatic solution can be found.

The following is what Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is insisting on in any potential deal…

“The first is that all enriched material has to leave Iran. The second is that there should be no enrichment capability, not stopping the enrichment process, but dismantle the equipment and the infrastructure that allows you to enrich in the first place,” he said.

Netanyahu added that an agreement should also address Iran’s ballistic missile program, citing a 300-kilometer range limit under the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR).

“There’s an MTCR limitation of 300 kilometers, and Iran is supposed to adhere to it. Of course, it doesn’t,” Netanyahu said.

He added that any agreement should also address its support for Iran’s regional allied groups.

Iran will never agree to any of that.

In fact, they will never agree to any restrictions on their ballistic missile program under any circumstances.

This is what Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Majid Takht-Ravanchi told the BBC earlier today…

“When we were attacked by Israelis and Americans, our missiles came to our rescue so how can we accept depriving ourselves of our defensive capabilities?” Takht-Ravanchi said, referring to last year’s 12-day war with Israel, during which Iran launched hundreds of missiles at Israel, which killed nearly three dozen Israeli civilians and wounded thousands.

Over and over again, the Iranians have made it abundantly clear that they are not willing to give the U.S. and Israel what they want.

Apparently Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have told Trump that it will be “difficult to impossible” to make any sort of a deal…

President Trump’s top advisors reportedly warned him that making a deal with Iran on its nuclear program is historically “difficult to impossible.”

Trump asked special envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner what the chances were of reaching an agreement with Tehran, according to a senior US official, Israel’s Channel 12’s Barak Ravid said on Telegram Saturday.

The pair told the president history shows the West has never been able to strike a positive deal with the Islamic Republic leaders, but that they would continue to “take a tough line” during negotiations, Ravid reported.

And Secretary of State Marco Rubio is trying to get everyone to understand that nobody has “ever been able to do a successful deal with Iran”…

“We’re dealing with radical SHIA CLERICS, people who make geopolitical decisions on the basis of pure theology. It’s a complicated thing. NO ONE’S ever been able to do a successful deal with Iran!”

“If [negotiations] change — it’ll be obvious to EVERYONE.”

There isn’t going to be a deal.

At this point, that should be obvious to everyone.

And even if Trump changed his mind and decided not to go in, the Israelis have already told us that they would go in anyway.

So war is coming.

It is just a matter of counting down the days.

Over the weekend, massive crowds of protesters all over the world called for regime change in Iran.

In Munich, Germany approximately 250,000 protesters showed up…

Anti-Iran regime protesters gathered in major cities across the globe on Saturday calling for a leadership change in the Global Day of Action Rally.

Over 250,000 protesters rallied in Munich, Germany on Saturday on the backdrop of the Munich Security Conference.

“With the number of participants recorded, this gathering is one of the largest rallies held in Munich in recent years,” the Munich Police reported in a press release. “The peaceful atmosphere is particularly noteworthy, despite the high number of participants in the meeting.”

Lindsey Graham was at the rally in Munich, and he is making it very clear how he feels about regime change…

US Senator Lindsey Graham also spoke at the Munich rally and commented on his participation in a post on X/twitter.

“I have chosen the Iranian people over the ayatollah. I believe they could be good allies of the United States and would march the region toward the light.” Senator Graham wrote.

“I believe the ayatollah is a religious Nazi, who would keep the region and the world in turmoil. He’s a religious fanatic who wants to purify Islam, destroy the Jewish people, and come after the United States, which he refers to as the Great Satan.”

The protests in Los Angeles and Toronto were even larger than the one in Munich.

There is going to be so much pressure on President Trump to take action.

In the end, I don’t see how war is going to be avoided.

Of course the Chinese will be very upset with us when we go after Iran, because somewhere between 13 percent and 15 percent of the oil that they import comes from the Iranians.

And the Russians have very close ties with the Iranians as well.

This could be the spark that throws the entire planet into a state of turmoil.

And that would especially be true if unconventional weapons are used.

We are so close to a real life nightmare, but I don’t think that there will be any turning back now.
