Iran has attacked Amazon’s servers

News agencies report that Amazon servers were attacked today. Drone strikes hit facilities in Bahrain (Hamala region) and, according to some reports, in the UAE. The attack caused power outages, damage to data centers and disruptions to services, banking and booking systems in the region.

My suggestion to the employees, use your sick leave.  Call in.

This is tit for tat because Trump just hit Iran hard, and Iran gave fair warning that they would retaliate against US companies.

How many people will Trumpolini starve?  He might out kill Hitler, Stalin, Mao & Pol Pot put together!

It comes down to if the narcissistic trapped animal will use a nuke.  But perhaps I should type 'when' instead of 'if' Trump uses a nuke.  At this point I'd bet on it.  After all, the motherfucker wants to go down in history as a big big man, and the heartless cretin will smoke people in a heartbeat.  He has shown that already.

Given the choice of knowing that a lot of Americans are about to die Trump will nuke.  He won't be doing it to save American lives, don't misunderstand.  Trump will do it to prevent the blowback from mass casualties and he thinks using a nuke will save his ass.

Exactly how far is it from Iran can't have nukes to I'm using my nuke.  Somebody get me a map.

We are now living in the time of a trapped animal, unfortunately this animal in not powerless in a bunker as his enemies close in.  He is a demented fool who will play god.

What Americans think about Donald Trump’s Iran strategy ahead of his White House address

Roughly two-thirds of Americans disapprove of the US taking military action in Iran.

Trump announced his address a day ago, so the lips will be moving with content decided a day ago.  Prepare to be played, the bullshit will be 100%.  Trump will announce victories and demand Iran surrender.  That is my prediction, the con man speaks.  The mad king has you paying for his war, dying for his war, and Trump still makes bank.  Trump will not admit he was a fool, and the consequences for America will be very bad.

Trumpo will be talking about bombing Iran into the stone age.  Trump is evil, and without humanity.  The pain and misery Trump inflicts on others makes him feel like he is 6'3".

I'll conclude my forecast predicting a tornado of stupidity with a 50/50 chance of an attempt to blame things on Biden.

Ex-Trump Attorney Questions President’s Mental Fitness for Office, Cites 25th Amendment

A former Trump insider escalates criticism, calling for constitutional action (invoke the 25th Amendment) amid intensifying rhetoric.

Trumps speech was a declaration of war.  The American people know Trump has cuked America even if congress pretends he has not.  I would call it a Gleiwitz speech, but the Nazis actually created a real fake incident to justify their shit.  Trump does not bother with that, and he uses incidents years and decades old which are also stained with multitudes of perspectives and interpretations of many different colors.  Trump is a very lazy tyrant.  But whatever, much of America will simply want to know what interpretation everybody is supposed to believe.  Find out which interpretation is popular in the confusion, they will adopt it.  So Trump being lazy won't matter.

‘Beyond what we could imagine’: Europe’s coming energy crunch

BRUSSELS — With the war in Iran threatening to choke off energy flows for the foreseeable future, Europe is facing a supply shock that promises to cripple manufacturing, ground airlines, hike up the price of food, spike borrowing costs and send inflation spiraling back to crisis levels.

And even if the war were to end today, it would take a year before the economy was back on track, IEA boss Birol told the same meeting of finance ministers. The longer the conflict continues, the worse it'll get.

It's not ending 2day or 2moro.  Far as semi "normal" traffic thru the Straight with 150 tankers/day transiting?  BEST CASE scenario on that would be MAYBE 3 months.  First the Iranians would have to give up their Toll Booth idea, 2nd some sort of convoy system needs to be organized, 3rd insurance companies have to offer insurance, finally they have to test it a few ships at a time gradually ramping up.  1 ship gets hit, back to square 1.

So what's the over under for the global economy in 6 months?

Hegseth’s broker looked to buy defense fund before Iran attack

A broker for US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth attempted to make a big investment in major defense companies in the weeks leading up to the US-Israeli attack on Iran.

Being defense secretary must not pay so good

* As of October 2024, the Secretary of Defense's annual salary clocked in at $246,400 – a massive payout for most Americans, but pennies compared to what Hegseth has become used to seeing in his pocket.

The great orange satan totally rearranged the internal politics of Iran the minute the first cuk bomb fell.  So the following article is out of date regarding the current reality.  But what went on exactly.

I'd not be posting this if Trump's claim of 45,000 protesters killed had any credibility.

Trump's exaggeration is so flagrant that all western claims of what happened must be discounted.  Dirty tricks were going on.  Stories made to order.  It seems the protests were professionally organized, and not an organic reaction of the Iranian people.

ALJAZEERA.COM • 2026-01-12

What we know about the protests sweeping Iran

The crackdown on protests in Iran has resulted in multiple deaths and an internet blackout.

Multiple deaths is not the same as 45,000.  By any stretch.


And the United States did the same thing to kick off the War in Ukraine.  Same revolution, different color.

If it had been 45,000 we would have seen them from space.

Dimitri is in Crete.  He reveals his personal feelings about the mess we are in.

• EXCLUSIVE: Dimmitri Lceras on Iran War Reporting, Western Media Blackout, Souda Bay Base, and the Coming Economic Collapse
  Reporter: Dimmitri Lceras (self-reporting) | Outlet: Reason to Resist (YouTube channel)
  Date of Recording: April 3, 2026 | Location: Kanya (Chania), Crete, Greece
  
  1. INTRODUCTION & CONTEXT
  Reporter Dimmitri Lceras has just arrived in Kanya, Crete after an 11-day reporting trip inside Iran. He traveled from Bandar Abbas (Strait of Hormuz) to Tehran by 22-hour train, then by bus to the Turkish border (12 hours), then a taxi to Van, Turkey. He describes the journey as grueling, averaging about 3 hours of sleep per night. He states the war against Iran is "the most consequential war of our lifetime."
  
  Key Facts:
  
  • Reporter: Dimmitri Lceras, former Canadian securities class actions lawyer (2006-2016), former Green Party of Canada leadership candidate (2020), now independent journalist for "Reason to Resist"
    
  • Location of this report: Kanya (Chania), Crete, Greece (near Souda Bay US naval base)
    
  • Reporting period in Iran: 11 days prior to April 3, 2026
    
  • Travel route: Bandar Abbas (Iran) → Tehran (22-hour train) → Turkish border (12-hour bus) → Van, Turkey (1-hour taxi) → Athens → Kanya, Crete
    
  • Purpose in Crete: Investigate US naval base at Souda Bay, which he calls a "critically important" role in the war on Iran
    
  2. REPORT FROM IRAN: PUBLIC SENTIMENT AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
  Lceras reports that he spoke with approximately 200 Iranians during his 11 days. He claims he personally heard no criticism of the Iranian government from those he interacted with, only "unmitigated contempt" for the US and Israel and derision towards Reza Pahlavi (son of the former Shah). He acknowledges this may not be statistically representative but reports what he saw.
  
  Key Observations in Iran
  
  • Iranians expressed "universal" hostility to negotiating with the US government
  • One young woman in a Tehran mall criticized the government for imposing religious views but adamantly opposed US/Israeli attacks
  • Reporter witnessed 15-20 demonstrations across various Iranian cities supporting the government and condemning the US/Israel
  • Iranians approached him on streets, trains, and in restaurants after recognizing him from Iranian national television
  • A 64-year-old man who fought in the Iran-Iraq war told Lceras he is ready to take up arms again to resist invasion
  • Iranians repeatedly asked him to "tell the people in the West that we are prepared to die for our country"
  
  Hospital Visit to Bombing Victim
  
  • Visited a 3-year-old girl in an Isfahan hospital whose entire family was killed in a US-Israeli bombing raid
  • The girl was on a ventilator, face scarred, unconscious and unaware of her family's death
  • Lceras broke down in tears; an Iranian journalist filmed him
  • The video was broadcast on Iranian national television
  • Iranian-Canadians contacted him saying his tears caused them to shed tears
  • Following this, Iranian media constantly requested interviews; Lceras lost count of how many he gave
  
  3. MILITARY SITUATION ASSESSMENT AND SIGNS OF WESTERN DEFEAT
  Lceras claims multiple indicators suggest the US and Israel are facing defeat in the war against Iran.
  
  Reported Military Developments
  
  • A US war plane was reportedly shot down over Iran; pilots ejected; US sent helicopters and refueling aircraft for recovery efforts
  • Israeli military told Israeli media they do not think it is possible to disarm Hezbollah, leaving it to the Lebanese government (which Lceras calls a "pipe dream")
  • Lceras states Hezbollah "appears now to be stronger than it has been at any time during the genocide in Gaza"
  • An Israeli soldier (face masked) reportedly told Israeli media the Israeli military is "on the verge of collapse"
  • Time magazine reported that Trump advisers presented polling showing US voters becoming "even more opposed and by a wide margin" to the war, urging Trump to find a way out
  • Secretary of War Pete Hegseth was reportedly "taken aback" by the expansive Iranian response and did not think Iran would attack other US bases in the Persian Gulf or seriously threaten to close the Strait of Hormuz
  
  4. STRATEGIC ANALYSIS: THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ AND ECONOMIC CATASTROPHE
  Lceras argues there is no military solution to closing the Strait of Hormuz. He predicts the war will end only with humiliating US concessions, but only after the US economy is "screaming in pain."
  
  Strait of Hormuz Analysis
  
  • Iran does not need to cut off the strait completely; drastically reducing traffic is sufficient to tank the global economy
    
  • Iran can achieve this by blowing up a ship "now and then" using drones, missiles, mines, or fast boats with anti-ship missiles
    
  • Oil tankers and LNG tankers are "sitting ducks" — huge, slow-moving, highly combustible
    
  • Occasional attacks would put fear into the global insurance and shipping industries
    
  • Conclusion: "There's no military solution to that conundrum"
    
  Iranian Demands for Ending the War
  
  • Reparations: Iran is entitled to reparations under international law because the US attack was a "criminal war of aggression"; the bill grows daily as pharmaceutical institutions, medical institutions, bridges, and power structures are destroyed
    
  • Removal of US bases from Persian Gulf: Lceras argues bases have proven "completely indefensible" and US Arab vassals may evict them regardless
    
  • Ironclad guarantees: That neither Israel nor the US will attack Iran again; Lceras calls this difficult due to destroyed US/Israeli credibility
    
  Economic Prediction
  
  • Trump is "congenally incapable" of making the required concessions
    
  • The only way Trump will concede is if the US economy is "screaming in pain" and Americans pour into the streets in Vietnam War-scale protests
    
  • Prediction: Between now and summer 2026, the global economic situation will become "considerably worse than the financial crisis of 2008 and 2009"
    
  • Alternative: Republicans could be eviscerated in the midterms, but by then the global economy "will lie in smoking ruins"
    
  5. CRITIQUE OF CANADIAN CORPORATE MEDIA
  Lceras expresses outrage that no Canadian corporate media outlet contacted him for interviews during his time in Iran, despite his previous prominence as the "most quoted practicing lawyer in Canada" from 2006-2016.
  
  Background and Alleged Blacklisting
  
  • From 2006-2016, Lceras prosecuted securities class actions against major Canadian companies including Research in Motion (Blackberry)
  • He was "almost certainly the most quoted practicing lawyer in Canada in the corporate media by a wide margin"
  • In 2016, as a member of the Green Party shadow cabinet, he brought a resolution supporting BDS (boycott, divestment, sanctions) against Israel
  • The Green Party became the first Canadian party with parliamentary seats to adopt such a resolution, over the objections of leaders Elizabeth May
  • From that moment, he says he became "a leper" to Canadian corporate media
  
  Media Silence During Iran Trip
  
  • A colleague sent a press release to 230 Canadian reporters; no response
  • A former Canadian civil servant (respected by corporate media) emailed six to seven leading CBC personalities urging them to interview Lceras; no response
  • Lceras offered to report for free, only wanting broader communication of what he was seeing
  • "Not a single Canadian media outlet from the corporate world contacted me"
  • By contrast, he has been interviewed by a major Japanese media outlet (1.5 hours), a major Indian media outlet, Greek television, and multiple Arab and Muslim world media outlets
  • His video evidence of a war crime was published by the New York Times and the Washington Post
  • He calls the Canadian corporate media a "disgusting, putrid cabal of prostitutes" and says he is "embarrassed to be a Canadian"
  
  6. COMMENTS ON CANADIAN POLITICS AND NDP LEADER AVI LEWIS
  Lceras addresses the recent election of Avi Lewis as leader of the New Democratic Party (NDP) of Canada.
  
  Lceras's Position
  
  • Lceras allowed his Green Party membership to lapse months ago due to its support for "the war machine" and Elizabeth May's "constant compromises"
  • He joined the NDP to vote for Avi Lewis, whom he knows personally
  • He calls Lewis "the best hope we have in Canadian politics"
  • However, he states the "acid test" will be whether Lewis comes out strongly and unequivocally against NATO, NATO proxy wars (including Ukraine), the military-industrial complex, and the war on Iran
  • Lceras argues one cannot oppose what is happening in Palestine without opposing all of these
  • Warning: If Lewis "sells out" like every NDP leader in Lceras's lifetime, Lceras will call him out on it
  • Message to Lewis: "Be true to your principles and stand against the war machine"
  
  7. PLANNED INVESTIGATIVE WORK IN CRETE
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Lceras explains his original plan and why it changed.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Souda Bay Naval Base Investigation
  
  • He believes the US naval base at Souda Bay (few kilometers from his location) plays a "critically important role" in the war on Iran
  • He accuses Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis of rendering Greece complicit in the war and all Israeli wars in the region
  • He states Mitsotakis has "the blood of Palestinian children on his hands" and should be tried for war crimes at The Hague and for treason in Greece
  • Original plan: Get as close as possible to the base and document activities
  • A contact (an anti-imperialist "legend" who was reportedly tortured by the Papadopoulos dictatorship in the 1960s, installed by the CIA) warned him he would likely be arrested for espionage, especially given his recent return from Iran
  • Lceras decided not to risk arrest on "bogus charges"
  • New plan: Interview local people involved in the struggle against the US military presence on the island and report what he learns from them
  
  8. FINAL REPORTING SCHEDULE
  
  • One more report from Iran to be published: severe damage to historical cultural sites in Tehran (expected April 4, 2026)
  • After that, full attention to US military activities in the Eastern Mediterranean
