Exclusive: Prior to Iran attacks, CIA assessed Khamenei would be replaced by hardline IRGC elements if killed, sources say reut.rs/4l9SCAs

Elected with promises not start wars but stop them, that US shouldn’t be world’s policeman, and bragging he stopped 7 wars, Trump has started largest US war since Iraq war, with no authorization from Congress, no international coalition, to topple regime. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/02...

Iran war throws oil market into biggest crisis in decades reut.rs/4smHIcZ

Iran has reportedly imposed a complete blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, through which about 20% of the world’s oil and oil products pass. Meanwhile, explosions have again been reported in Kuwait and Qatar. #Iran

Personal opinion as always, there is no compelling reason to attack Iran, no sign we have a clear strategic goal and plan for the aftermath, the President failed to lay out a case to the American public, there is no legal authorization from the U.S. Congress and no international law justification

Time is a flat circle

It is not only the equipment. Evidently she was manned with a crew who knew how to use it.

It was the tiny and ancient (1993) Tapper-class patrol boat HMS RAPP that identified and electronically neutralized the Russian drone threat against French carrier CHARLES DE GAULLE a few days ago. This indicates Swedish navy have come quite far in equipping their units for a modern drone threats.

Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is still alive "as far as I know," the country's foreign minister said in an interview with NBC News.

It's not hard to have a correct take on this if you're a Democrat. Thanks, @titus.house.gov.

THIS.

Hvad sker der for at _vi_ ikke har en baguettebagende hangarskibsgruppe?! Danmark er et forsvarskulinarisk Uland.

We obtained the first publicly released satellite image of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's compound in Tehran, after it was struck by Israel/US. There are several destroyed buildings. Current whereabouts of Iran's supreme leader are unknown; compound used as his official residence. 🛰️📸: @airbus.com

Comparison from comrade @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social on Ukraine & Iran. -Russian forces "enter" Ukraine, US & Israel make "illegal attack" -Russia excused cos of NATO. US & Israel are "rogue states" -Russia created a "crisis" & offered diplomacy. US & Israel "endanger us all"

Preliminary map of US strikes on #Iran. Strikes seem to be aimed at government and IRGC facilities. No news on labs or oil filelds yet

Huh. He literally did the speech.

Finland allowed Russian citizens to purchase property. This has enabled the RF to establish a network of covert bases in strategically important locations within NATO territory.Latvia has banned Russian and Belarusian nationals from acquiring property. The EU must enact a law to ban Russians asap!

1/ As of now, the following is known: The US and Israel have launched a large-scale joint military operation against Iran. American officials confirmed the participation of their forces to dismantle the Iranian security apparatus.

“A pro-Russian aide to a far-right German legislator who attempted to scuttle Berlin’s shipment of main battle tanks to Ukraine is an agent of Russian intelligence, The Insider can now reveal. Vladimir Sergienko, 52, is the Ukrainian-born adviser to Eugen Schmidt, a Bundestag deputy with the AfD.“

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

The first US president in history to announce a war while wearing a baseball cap.

Holy holy holy fuck truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

❗️BREAKING: Explosions are heard in the capital of Iran, Tehran.

As many casualties as the US had in WWII. An offensive that's moving slower than WWI. An economy that's now in stagflation. And a wild collapse in geopolitical influence. Call Russia's invasion of Ukraine what it is: the greatest strategic failure we've seen in decades. Me in @kyivindependent.com:

Drone jammed near French aircraft carrier was Russian, Sweden's military confirms www.france24.com/en/europe/20...

Swedish Forces Jam Suspected Russian Drone Near French Carrier Charles De Gaulle — USNI News news.usni.org/2026/02/27/s...

De Zweedse krijgsmacht heeft bevestigd dat de drone die eerder deze week dichtbij het Franse vliegkampschip Charles de Gaulle in Malmö vloog van Russische makelij was en werd gelanceerd vanaf de spionagetrawler Zhigulevsk.

This is amazing. www.getyourfuckingmoneyback.com

No idea on any of this testing, but I'll for as long as I've been around security and military professionals have always said corrupting and faking data in our systems is a bigger fear than adversaries just taking the systems down

I really do wonder how the Saudi position plays out. Pic of 6x E-3s shared by Twitter acct @EGYOSINT related.

Digital Ghosting: OSINT sources confirm #USSGeraldRFord (CVN-78) is arriving off #Haifa, #Israel today, Feb 27. Don’t be fooled by AIS signals showing her North of #Crete; that’s likely a stale or spoofed position. At 25+ knots, the carrier has already crossed the Levantine Basin. #OSINT #USNavy

BREAKING NEWS | The State Department has authorized the departure of some American personnel from Israel amid a buildup of U.S. military forces in the Middle East and languishing negotiations over Iran’s nuclear capabilities. www.stripes.com/theaters/mid...

US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has emailed staff urging those wishing to leave the country to depart "today”. He warns of likely high demand for flights from Ben Gurion Airport and stresses the importance of a rapid exit. NYT has seen the email.

This week's cover @thelancet.com

THE PEACE TALKS SAGA GOES ON…. Ukrainian and American negotiators will meet in early March to discuss technical details and principles around security arrangements post war. Nobody expects much to come out of it. The Americans say much but promise little. They just want a deal Trump can boast about

An overlooked but notable detail in Denmark’s new economic plan: All proceeds from the sale of F-16 fighter jets to Argentina will be donated to Ukraine. That’s 1.8 billion DKK (€241m / $270m) over four years. #Denmark #F16 #Defense #Argentina

the 'restrictions' are worth stating explicitly. Anthropic doesn't want its AI to be used to make decisions about whether to kill someone without some human oversight. Hegseth says he won't accept that restriction.

A Russian drone was intercepted by Swedish armed forces as it approached French carrier Charles De Gaulle, currently docked in south Sweden. Took of from a Russian ship but disappeared after electronic warfare actions were taken. Caveat, media understanding, but seemingly confirmed by MOD =).

L'histoire va se répéter...

THE FRONTLINE MAKES RUSSIAN ARGUMENTS OF INEVITABLE SUCCESS A PROBLEM FOR THE KREMLIN The Russians have taken Pokrovsk, but they have systematically been unable to exploit the gain. Everywhere else where they make tiny advances it’s more opportunistic than synchronised and is more of then than not
