Bombing Iran: From the Libya Model to the North Korea Model

Before the U.S. struck Iran’s civilian nuclear facilities in an unprovoked and illegal bombing, a diplomatic settlement to the nuclear standoff was on the table. Retired ambassador and former Iranian nuclear negotiator Seyed Hossein Mousavian says that he has been told by an informed Iranian source that “the key elements of the deal between [Trump’s special envoy] Witkoff and [Iran’s foreign minister] Araghchi were agreed upon.”

“Iran would accept maximum nuclear inspections and transparency,” including implementing the International Atomic Energy Agency Additional Protocol. They would either convert or export their stockpile of 60% enriched uranium, cease high-level enrichment and cap their enrichment at the 3.67% needed for a civilian energy program. Finally, Iran would fully cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in resolving any outstanding technical ambiguities. In return, Iran would be permitted to have its civilian nuclear program, and the U.S. would lift all nuclear-related sanctions.

Such a deal would satisfy Iran’s demand to exercise its “inalienable right to a civilian [nuclear] program” and America’s demand to ensure that Iran’s program never become weaponized. But before it could be signed, U.S. President Donald Trump succumbed to pressure and undermined the talks by demanding the Libya model. That demand killed any hope for a diplomatic resolution.

The Libya model is code for zero enrichment and the complete abandonment of Iran’s civilian nuclear program: a demand that Iran will never agree to.

Iranian fatwa crowdfunding effort claims to have raised $40M for bounty on President Trump’s head

A crowdfunding effort that claims to have raised a $40 million bounty for the assassination of President Trump has been linked to a former employee of Iran’s primary propaganda network.

The campaign, organized by a group known as the “Blood Covenant,” comes after multiple radical Iranian clerics issued fatwas, or death warrants, against Trump – denouncing him as an “enemy of Allah” after the US military bombed three of Tehran’s nuclear facilities last month. 

“We pledge to award the prize to whoever can bring the militants and those who threaten the life of the Deputy of Imam Mahdi (may our souls be sacrificed for him) to justice for their actions,” the Blood Covenant wrote on its website. 

The unhinged message also included a Trump image in crosshairs. 

Blood Covenant operates “under the aegis of the Iranian regime,” according to the US-based Middle East Media Research Institute think tank.

Tower of Babel: Nearly Two Million Non-Native English Speaking Students in England Schools

A report has found that almost two million students do not speak English as their native language in England as a result of the mass migration agenda imposed upon the country by the Westminster establishment.

Freedom of Information requests from the Daily Mail have revealed that in 2,039 schools in England, English is not the first language for the majority of students.

In total, the report found that 1.8 million students are non-native English speakers, or around one in five pupils in the country.

Zeroing in, at the Kobi Nazrul primary school in the Tower Hamlets borough of London, 92 per cent of students speak Bengali as their native tongue, while none were recorded as speaking English at home as their first language.

Another example highlighted was the Pentland Infant Kirklees school in Dewsbury, where the vast majority of students had an Indian language as their mother tongue, with 36 per cent speaking Gujarati and 45 per cent speaking Panjabi.

The number of students without English as their first language has increased significantly over the past decade, during which successive governments have undertaken record levels of immigration.

According to the report, there are now 700,000 more non-native English speaking students compared to ten years ago.

Macron’s Globalist Economic Betrayal: Poverty Levels Rise to Unprecedented Levels in France

Under Emmanuel Macron’s leadership, France is grappling with a poverty crisis not seen in three decades. Instead of fostering self-reliance and growth as promised during his presidential campaign, his policies have fueled dependency on temporary government handouts, leaving millions in dire straits as those crutches are withdrawn.

According to the latest data from INSEE, France’s national statistics agency, poverty shattered records in 2023. A staggering 9.8 million people—roughly 15% of the population—fell below the monetary poverty line, defined as monthly income under 60% of the median (about €1,288 for a single individual). That’s an alarming increase of 650,000 people in just one year.

“This marks an unprecedented surge in nearly 30 years,” observed Michel Duée, director of INSEE’s household resources and living conditions division. To find comparable levels, one must look back to the economic turmoil of the early 1970s.

The root cause? The abrupt end to short-term “exceptional aids” like inflation bonuses and back-to-school payouts introduced in 2022 to prop up purchasing power. As these fiscal band-aids expired, reality hit hard.

Hardworking self-employed individuals and micro-entrepreneurs have borne the brunt, their livelihoods eroded by bureaucratic hurdles and economic stagnation. Meanwhile, indicators of hardship are exploding, utility shutoffs for unpaid power and gas bills have skyrocketed and rental evictions are surging at an unprecedented rate.

Most heartbreakingly, single-parent families, predominantly led by dedicated mothers raising children alone, are suffering the worst. Their poverty rate jumped nearly three percentage points from 2022 to 2023, dragging more children under 18 into destitution.

From the eggs to the courts: A clash over animals, eggs and affordability

In an escalating federal-state battle over food policy, the Trump administration this week sued California over its animal welfare laws, alleging they drive sky-high egg prices. The lawsuit, filed July 9 in Los Angeles federal court, argues California’s ballot initiatives—which banned restrictive hen cages and set space requirements for farm animals—violate federal authority. Agriculture Secretary Greg Zoeller called the state standards “bureaucratic red tape” suppressing supply and hiking costs in a market already strained by avian flu outbreaks.

Legal battle over animal welfare standards shelved under the spotlight of price increases

The lawsuit targets two key California laws: Proposition 2 (2008) and Proposition 12 (2018). These measures mandated that egg-laying hens, veal calves and breeding pigs be allowed to stand, lie down and turn freely without cages—a rule applied to all eggs sold in California, including out-of-state imports.

The Justice Department claims these voter-approved requirements conflict with the 1970 Egg Products Inspection Act, which grants federal regulators sole authority to set safety and quality standards. “California has blocked affordable farming practices,” argued Assistant Attorney General Brett Shumate, citing a 20% statewide price hike post-Proposition 2.

Critics, however, frame this as a repackaging of the administration’s prior inflation-fighting rhetoric. “This is another chapter in Trump’s crusade to dismantle humane laws while blaming states,” said Humane Society director Kitty Block. Her organization points to studies linking crowded cage systems to salmonella risks—arguments unresolved in Friday’s filing.

Why I’m Sounding the Alarm on Sprayable Intranasal COVID-19 Vaccine

Last week, Science Advances published a study on the CVXGA1 nasal COVID-19 vaccine Phase 1 trial. I was asked by The Defender to provide my thoughts on this recent development.

Excerpts from the article reveal why I’m sounding the alarm!

Investigative journalist Sonia Elijah noted that CVXGA1, which enters the mucus membranes and lungs through the nose, has the “potential for shedding viral particles through intranasal secretions, which could expose unvaccinated individuals.”

Elijah said the study didn’t examine if shed materials can be spread to others. “This raises significant safety concerns about replication and shedding risks,” she said.

The Defender highlighted my critique:

According to Elijah, the lack of a control group and the small sample size “weakens the trial’s ability to accurately assess safety and immunogenicity,” but these aren’t the only flaws.

Elijah said:

“The study lacks data on RNA detection levels and did not perform infectivity assays to confirm if shed materials can be spread to others.

The lack of specific safety and immunogenicity data for the adolescent group raises concerns about the vaccine’s effects in younger individuals.

The open-label design, where both participants and researchers knew who received the vaccine, introduces potential bias in reporting and assessing outcomes, such as adverse events.”

USDA’s Mass H5N1 Poultry Vaccination Plan Likely to Rely on Leaky Zoetis H5N2 Vaccine

The leading candidate appears to be the Zoetis vaccine targeting H5N2 — even though the dominant strain spreading through U.S. flocks is H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b.

The vaccine uses the N2 neuraminidase subtype deliberately to support DIVA (Differentiating Infected from Vaccinated Animals) surveillance — allowing authorities to detect field infections in vaccinated birds.

In February 2025, the USDA issued a conditional license to Zoetis for its Avian Influenza Vaccine, H5N2 Subtype, Killed Virus, specifically for use in chickens, based on a “reasonable expectation of efficacy based on serology data”. In other words, the approval rests on hope that antibody titers will translate into real-world protection—not on demonstrated effectiveness against infection or transmission.

A conditional license allows the vaccine to be used immediately, but only under specific circumstances—such as during an outbreak or in targeted populations. As of June 2025, Zoetis’s H5N2 vaccine remains the only avian influenza vaccine conditionally approved by the USDA for use in U.S. poultry. No other vaccines are currently authorized or ready for large-scale deployment.

However, according to the USDA, inactivated virus vaccines—such as the Zoetis H5N2 formulation—are non-sterilizing in the field. This means they do not prevent infection, do not eliminate viral shedding, and allow vaccinated birds to silently carry and transmit H5N1, particularly in densely populated commercial flocks.

UFO Whistleblowers Aim Spotlight at White House Secrecy Machine

In a new interview with podcaster Stephen Diener on 8 July 2025, Representative Burlison said that many Special Access Programs (SAPs) relating to Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) “operate directly under the supervision of the White House.”

Sources tell Liberation Times that the drive for secrecy starts inside the White House itself, pushed by career officials who span administrations and work in two offices so sensitive their names cannot be disclosed publicly.

According to those sources, UAP missions are acknowledged at the highest levels of the White House but remain hidden from most Cabinet agencies behind elaborate cover programs. 

If true, the claim suggests UAP missions are far more centralised – and politically sensitive – than previously reported.

One defense source pointed to Dan Sherman’s book ‘Above Black: Project Preserve Destiny’ as a useful primer on how such compartmentalisation works. 

His description of layered secrecy mirrors today’s system, according to the source.

The six layers of secrecy are said to be as follows:

  1. Public layer (Unclassified) – Information released to the public, which may or may not reveal an organisation’s true purpose
  2. Controlled layer (For Official Use Only) – Unclassified data restricted to prevent outsiders from piecing together a sensitive picture
  3. Secret – Material whose unauthorised disclosure could seriously harm national security
  4. Top Secret + code-word compartments – Highly sensitive operations organised under code names
  5. Black missions – Conventional clandestine projects and missions, such as CIA–JSOC efforts to recover foreign hardware. Knowledge is limited to the President and a handful of lawmakers (the “Gang of Eight”)
  6. Programs-within-programs – Genuine UAP activities concealed inside black missions and projects. Even presidents can be kept at arm’s length; probing questions are often deflected with a limited briefing on the outer mission or project.

What has been alleged by whistleblowers, such as former senior intelligence official David Grusch, resembles Sherman’s description.

The Rise Of The Prison State: Trump’s Push For Megaprisons Could Lock Us All Up

“You think we’re arresting people now? You wait till we get the funding to do what we got to do.”—Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar

America is rapidly becoming a nation of prisons.

Having figured out how to parlay presidential authority in foreign affairs in order to sidestep the Constitution, President Trump is using his immigration enforcement powers to lock up—and lock down—the nation.

After all, a police state requires a prison state. And no one is cheering louder than the private prison corporations making money hand over fist from Trump’s expansion of federal detention.

Under the guise of national security and public safety, the Trump administration is engineering the largest federal expansion of incarceration and detention powers in U.S. history.

At the center of this campaign is Alligator Alcatraz, a federal detention facility built in the Florida Everglades and hailed by the White House as a model for the future of federal incarceration. But this is more than a new prison—it is the architectural symbol of a carceral state being quietly constructed in plain sight.

With over $170 billion allocated through Trump’s megabill, we are witnessing the creation of a vast, permanent enforcement infrastructure aimed at turning the American police state into a prison state.

The scope of this expansion is staggering.

The bill allocates $45 billion just to expand immigrant detention—a move that will make ICE the best-funded federal law enforcement agency in American history, with more money than the FBI, the DEA, and the Bureau of Prisons combined.

Yet be warned: what begins with ICE rarely ends with ICE.
