Three women. Their only “crime”? Being Imran Khan’s sisters. Their detention has been extended by another 30 days. Collective punishment is a violation of basic human dignity. The world must demand their immediate release & an end to political persecution. @BowesChay @SRjudgeslawyers @boganintel @vonderleyen @AreebaFatimaa @Kasim_Khan_1999
🇵🇰 Imran Khan’s 3 sisters have already spent OVER A MONTH behind bars, and Pakistan just found a way to keep them there until at least November 26. Punjab’s government has EXTENDED the detention of Aleema Khan, Uzma Khan and Noreen Niazi by ANOTHER 30 days, under a public order law normally aimed at people seen as threats to public peace. Their family asked a court to free them, but the judge threw the case out over a paperwork issue. Meanwhile, a terrorism court has pushed back its verdict against Aleema yet again, to November 26, the same day her detention ends. Whether that timing is a coincidence is anyone’s guess, but there are fears Aleema could be arrested again in the terrorism case as soon as her detention ends. 3 sisters with no political roles, held under one law until another can take over. Is this how justice works in Pakistan now? Sources: @WaqasAwan666, @writetofahim / Writer: Julie

Watch this.
This Machine Literally Prints Railway Tracks China's track-laying rig feeds out 500-meter rails — each 30 tonnes — while automatically dropping 1,600 concrete sleepers every kilometer. That's why China has 50,000 km of high-speed rail: more than every other country on Earth combined. And they're still adding thousands more every year.

Lula vs. Bolsonaro: I was held in solitary confinement for 1,901 days for revealing the truth about the U.S. government's killings and espionage, including against Brazil and its industries. Out of power, Lula fought for my freedom. In power, Lula discussed my persecution with Pope Francis, who decided to meet with my family and offer help. After my release, Lula and I met in Rome to mourn the Holy Father's passing. Lula was kind to my children and asked for nothing in return. In contrast, Jair and Flávio Bolsonaro did nothing and said nothing. Yet without the ability to say no to Washington and Tel Aviv, there can be no domestic policy, only foreign instructions. Those orders are always the same: "Expand our theft of resources and wages, and keep your mouths shut about us murdering children." Sellouts will surrender everything in exchange for a cut, even their own tongues.

“Search and rescue” Yeah, right.
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks. By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time. Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

Evangelical pastors are offering up their congregations to be Noahide adherents loyal to Israel and extreme Jewish messianic end-times prophesies.
Pastor John Hagee's "Night to Honor Israel" kicked off by having the venue transition from singing the US national anthem to the Israeli national anthem. Controversial Zionist federal Judge Roy Altman can be seen at Hagee's side proudly singing both anthems.

Schofield Christianity, a Zionist invention from the 20th century, is a political vehicle to further its interests around the world. This is not Christianity.
Flávio Bolsonaro won 155 of Brazil’s 200 most evangelical municipalities. His father won 130 in 2022. The Christian Zionist political machine is expanding. British imperial policy in the 1840s promoted Protestant institutions and Jewish restoration in Palestine. John Nelson Darby’s dispensationalism helped shape the prophetic worldview that later influenced Anglo-American Christian Zionism. Since 1977, Likud’s Revisionist Zionists made a strategic priority of partnering with Christian fundamentalists. The theology came first. The political alliance came later. That theology has been turned against the Sermon on the Mount. Love of neighbor has been replaced with hatred of Muslims, and reason with prophecy. Flávio’s promise to move Brazil’s embassy to Jerusalem and align the country with Israel against Iran gives that mobilization a geopolitical direction. The pastors mobilize the faithful. The Chicago Boys write the policy. Wall Street and Washington collect the resources. Lula won today. The machine lost the election, but not its personnel, its funding, or its plan. The pastors still have their congregations, and the congregations are still clamouring for the rapture and speaking in tongues.

The illusion of Gulf state autonomy is the biggest trick the Zionist empire ever pulled.
This is an incredible video. Deep down, we’ve always known this. Qatari officials ADMITTED that America forces the Arab nations to spend their money on useless projects and lavish sports tournaments. Arab money is held in US banks, and the Arabs have to ask permission from the Americans whenever they wish to withdraw and spend their own money. They’re like a 16-year-old kid asking their Dad for permission to use his credit card. If an Arab ruler wanted to spend his billions on new factories, shipyards, and new strategic industrial projects, America would refuse to give him permission. But if the Arab ruler wanted to spend his billions on new music concerts, tennis tournaments, and luxurious hotels, then America would give him permission to spend the money. America doesn’t want you to be strategically independent of them, because they would lose their leverage and control over you. They want these small, divided, and weak Arab states to be dependent on the US forever. America uses modern industry and comfort to hold you hostage. These golden handcuffs ensure that you will never defy the Americans. Your electrical grid, antibiotics, refrigerators, and machinery are all dependent on US supply chains. If you dare defy America, they will shut off your imports and your people will starve. It’s not like the people in Riyadh and Doha know how to farm. They live in skyscrapers and they buy their food from local grocery stores which rely on modern equipment and global imports. Breaking this cycle of dependence relies on breaking the very supply chains which keep millions of people fed and housed. In a perverse way, being developed makes you more dependent. That’s why nations like Afghanistan and Yemen are more able to defy America, simply because they’re less developed and less reliant on imports. @anasaltikriti was being interviewed by @DillyHussain88 on this issue.

Nation building. We should try it some time. We could go to China with a fraction of an AUKUS budget and begin. Instead we prepare for war. We don't deserve a small minded militaristic class in Canberra.
The Americans spent 20 years and 3 trillion Dollars replacing the Taliban with the Taliban in Afghanistan. The Chinese have just delivered their first freight worth 8 million yuan to Afghanistan. Billions more to come. Where the US made war, They make business.

This is what really needs reporting: the people beating the tech for the first time in a decade or so. This cannot be put back in the box. Has the Zionist tech panopticon lost its power to shape our minds?
Replying to @caitoz
Iam brazilian, and live in São Paulo: it was the people who won. We did the impossible, defeating META, the USA empire, the sionism, everything! Lula was on the front line, but the people united in a way never seen in any election, and won! This will go down in history!

British leaders have been social engineering this scenario for weeks. Preparing the population for some nondescript catastrophe. What are the leaders up to?

As of the past few weeks, Elon has bailed on Mars and AI. Make of that what you will.
Replying to @chamath
Pretty much. As of the past few weeks, debt markets have almost entirely shut off access to money for any company that doesn’t have substantial revenue independent of AI data centers. SpaceX closed $40B of debt for GPUs, but we’re investment grade and have Starlink & launch revenue. That means the 200+ neoclouds are going to see guppy-level death and consolidation. Some will make it through, but not many.

Israeli military brass refusing Netanyahus election war against Iran.
אני מגבה באופן מוחלט את הרמטכ״ל על עמידתו על חובתו המקצועית. אסור לאפשר שום מהלך צבאי שאין מאחוריו צורך ביטחוני ברור, תכלית אסטרטגית ותוכנית פעולה אחראית. כשאזרחי ישראל ילכו אל הקלפי ביום שלישי הקרוב עליהם לזכור זאת: נתניהו מהווה איום ביטחוני על ישראל. הוא אינו מהסס להקריב את חיי ילדינו לשם הישרדותו ערב בחירות - את זה צה״ל מנסה לבלום. ביטחון ישראל נתון בידיו של דרג מדיני מושחת, אנשים בלתי כשירים ומטורפים שלא מהססים להקריב את ביטחון ישראל כדי לשמור על הכיסא. אנחנו ננצח. ואנחנו נחליף אותם ונחזיר את ישראל לדרך הביטחון והאחריות.

The capture and jailing of Khan, as recommended by the Epstein network, is a major event that paved the way for the reality we see in West Asia today.
Imran Khan (July 2019): "I’m not sure whether all the countries realize the gravity of the situation if there’s a conflict with Iran. People don’t understand, you know, this is not going to be the same as Iraq. This could be much, much, much worse." Speaking at the US Institute of Peace in Washington DC, the then-Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan warned directly against a military conflict with Iran. Key excerpts from his address: • "...the Shia element in Islam is very cohesive. They have a much greater sense of martyrdom..." • "The battle might be quite short...bombing airfields and so on... But the consequences after that... not many people fully understand it." • "I would strongly urge that there should not be... another military situation... The last thing we want is another conflict on our borders." This should help the world understand why Imran Khan is in jail today. He stands with the oppressed, stands for sovereignty, and leads the Movement for Justice in Pakistan.
