State collapse is inevitable when a society’s leaders are insulated from the negative consequences of their bad decisions.

It does appear that Iran has made Trump looking like a beggar asking for the help from other nations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. And he is being turned down. So much for NATO. This kinetic action will go down as surpassing the Bay of Pigs for lack of planning and downright stupidity.
Israel will pay a very high price for their hegemony. We shall see the destruction already unleashed on Israel by Iran in the near future. It must be bad if Israel is putting people in prison for releasing pictures or video of the carnage.
The people in the United States have been betrayed by Trump and by Congress. Imagine if we could pass and enforce a law that stated any elected official who took money from a foreign nation would be charged with treason?
From Grok:
The post reports a rare full halt in trading across all London Metal Exchange (LME) contracts, including copper, aluminum, zinc, and tin, starting around 2:40 PM GMT on March 16, 2026, due to an unspecified technical issue preventing order placements and price updates.
This disruption echoes past LME incidents, such as the 2022 nickel market chaos from extreme volatility and systems errors, but current reports indicate no prior price swings, suggesting a routine glitch rather than fundamental market stress.
Traders are shifting to alternative venues like the Shanghai Futures Exchange for hedging, potentially causing short-term liquidity strains and volatility upon resumption, though physical metal supplies remain unaffected.

A valid offer but it seems to good to be true. I have to ask why?
The financial outlook is dire. Debt, high interest rates, AI job losses, inflation and a loss of faith in the US government coupled with Epstein Fury have come home to roost.
Update:
The post details a verified spike in Chinese military activity around Taiwan on March 14, 2026—26 warplanes and 7 ships—following a 16-day lull, timed with U.S. Marine deployments to the Middle East against Iran, per Reuters and ISW reports. (Grok)

Islam Is Destroying America. We Have Very Little Time Left.
As I wrote previously, Iran’s Muslim population is 40% or less of the people. Christianity is rapidly growing and people are returning to Persia’s original religion of Zoroastrianism. The world looks to Iran and sees Islamic terrorists. Few people know that Iran means Aryan in Farsi. So do we vilify and attack a nation because they are led by Muslims who view our government as evil?
I would point out that the US would be a good analogy if we were looking at it from the outside. The majority of the people have no say in the operation of the nation’s government. Most people in the US disagree with governmental policy, programs, censorship, foreign relations and its justice system. In fact, many Christian people believe the country is being led by evil.
If we look at the instability around the world, most can be attributed to the US policy of color revolutions to overthrow foreign (and our domestic) governments for “democracy”. Trump celebrates the overthrow of Venezuela (if that is what happened), the collapse of Cuba, the bombing in Ecuador and the attacks in Mexico. He used tariffs to blackmail other countries to do his (Israel’s) bidding. He finally snapped and attacked Iran based on the unsupported reasoning that they were going to attack Israel first. I wonder where they got that idea since the Omani moderator said that was not true?
There is a long list of transgressions by the government against the American people but the short list would be the Epstein files, the SAVE Act betrayal, economic malfaisance and the plandemic. Iran has stated that they do not hold the people of the US responsible for this war, only our leaders. Rather than beat a dead camel, I just want people to consider the correlation of an Islamic minority leading a nation compared to the US government protecting pedophiles, homosexual and other sexual perversions, financing an engineered pandemic for profit at the expense of millions of lives and supporting large corporate profits for personal wealth and power.
I will point out one fact: Iranians are smarter than our government leaders. Time is on their side:
It should be apparent that the longer the war drags on, the greater the chances are of a larger and longer WWIII encompassing most of the world. Tomorrow’s stock market will foreshadow our immediate future. Oil prices and shortages will be coupled with the banking collapse that will be unveiled shortly.
If you want peace in your soul, look to the Lord and pray for His forgiveness.
