Donald Trump is set to slash the arsenal of US fighter jets, warships and submarines reserved for NATO allies should a military crisis erupt in Europe.
A military envoy sent by Pete Hegseth blindsided senior NATO officials in a classified Brussels briefing late last week, revealing US firepower committed to defending Europe will significantly decline, Der Spiegel and Reuters reported.
The US fighter jet commitment to NATO is to be slashed by a third, while the Navy will withdraw destroyers from the alliance’s pool.
The cuts will gut the so-called ‘NATO Force Model,’ the alliance framework for defending Europe drawn up in 2022 after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
As the US prepares to eliminate its supply of submarines to NATO, it leaves open a massive military risk for the continent if its not able to fill the gap left behind by Trump.
US submarines are among NATO’s most critical assets in Europe because they are capable of monitoring Russia’s nuclear-armed underwater vessels.
Critical infrastructure for the west, such as undersea cables and oil pipelines, are safeguarded by the submarines.
This appears to be part of a major geopolitical reorganization. This sends a strong signal to Russia that USA is not going to continue NATO’s never-ending encroachment on Russia’s borders. And that means Russia and USA can now form real-world economic ties, beneficial to both nations. ABN
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu clashed with Donald Trump in a furious phone call that left the Israeli leader with his ‘hair on fire’, a source has revealed.
On Tuesday evening, the two leaders held a difficult and lengthy phone call where they disagreed on the way forward in the Iran war.
Netanyahu increasingly doubts further negotiations with Tehran will yield a peace deal and wants to resume military strikes, according to Israel’s Channel 12.
Trump, meanwhile, wants to push harder for an agreement in which Iran abandons its nuclear weapons programme before any return to war.
Trump claimed that Netanyahu ‘will do whatever I want him to do’ on Iran, though adding that they had a good relationship
Looks like a planted story to show Trump controls Netanyahu and not the other way around. Interesting they choose to do this. Or it could be a true story. Whatever the state of the war or the world, it’s impossible to say what is really going on. ABN
The analysis presented in the above video is the best alternative to the notion that Trump has gone crazy and is destroying USA and the world… I dislike making predictions because they turn thoughtful analyses into gambling, so I will not speculate about the future of the world. But if Trump is doing what Kokinda says, which appears to be the case, I hope he succeeds, and it appears he may very well do so. I hope readers of this site will at least listen to the argument above. ABN
So if Trump knows, his apparent demotion of Israel is explained. If he knows, his end-run around Europe and Israel, makes sense. There are many other signs Trump knows the Middle East and Israel and more, and is reorganizing world geopolitics based on pragmatics and USA’s best interests. As a global top hegemon, Trump is doing what he has to do (by KOBK rules). I am speculating. I want the best for USA and the world, in that order. ABN
She is the loudest, most aggressive pro-Israel voice in Donald Trump‘s orbit.
So when Laura Loomer leaned in close to the President two months ago and warned him that the American public was giving up on the Jewish State, his two-word reply landed like a thunderclap, carrying an ominous message for Benjamin Netanyahu.
‘You’re probably going to be the last pro-Israel President we ever have,’ Loomer recounted telling Trump, in an interview with the New York Times.
Trump, she says, replied: ‘You’re right.’
The White House pointedly did not deny the exchange. Spokeswoman Anna Kelly instead offered a boilerplate response that Israel ‘has always been a great ally to the United States’ and that its military was an ‘incredible partner’ in Iran.
Even Loomer, the far-right firebrand who has made it her mission to purge MAGA of anyone who wavers on Israel, concedes there has been a marked shift in public opinion, notably among Republicans.
She went so far as to suggest Israel should accept the elimination of US military aid, currently a $38 billion 10-year package set to expire in 2028.
Facing skeptical questions from MAGA-aligned college students about US support for Israel, JD Vance recently suggested his support for Jerusalem is not unequivocal.
‘Israel, sometimes they have similar interests to the United States, and we’re going to work with them in that case. Sometimes, they don’t have similar interests,’ he said at the University of Mississippi in October.
That this is a top story this morning and that Laura Loomer is a significant part of it is amazing and also a deep sign of the times. She is a bizarre character to be speaking with the president of USA at all and also to be a center-piece of the apparent decline of Israel. All of this provides even more credence to this video and others like it from the Promethean group. ABN
President Trump announces “Project Freedom,” directing the U.S. Navy to escort neutral-country ships through the Strait of Hormuz starting Monday and warning that interference will be attacked, while noting positive U.S.-Iran discussions and framing the move as a test of whether Iran’s negotiators control the IRGC.
The episode argues Trump is using oil and gas to rebuild the U.S. economy and to displace London’s oil-pricing power, citing April 20 Presidential Determinations under the Defense Production Act, a National Energy Dominance Council led by Doug Burgum and Chris Wright, and rising U.S. production (EIA March 2026: ~24 million bpd) driving lower prices, a manufacturing revival, and a shrinking trade deficit.
It contrasts this with post-1971 “petrodollar” strategy, OPEC shocks, “controlled disintegration,” and Iran-related destabilization, and claims modern media propaganda—from Lippmann to Operation Mockingbird to recent censorship networks—drives anti-Trump narratives.
A former top scientist from Harvard University has defected to China – giving the country an edge in the global race to develop the world’s first AI super-soldier.
Charles Lieber, the former chair of Harvard’s chemistry department, has resurfaced as the founding director of Shenzhen’s Institute for Brain Research Advanced Interfaces and Neurotechnologies, also known as i-BRAIN.
Lieber was convicted in 2021 of lying to the feds about his ties to China and retired from Harvard in 2023.
Scientists in the military wing of the Chinese Communist Party have been working on brain-computer interfaces — Lieber is one of the world’s leading researchers in the field — to boost mental agility and situational awareness to engineer super soldiers.
The Ivy League scientist was convicted in 2021 of lying to the feds about his ties to the Thousand Talents Program, a Chinese state scheme to poach foreign researchers. He was promised $750,000 a year to set up a research lab in China while he was at Harvard, and hid funds he received from the Internal Revenue Service.
I have been saying this since the start of the war. It’s Jewish Supremacists who did and are still doing this. Carlson calls them neocons but he must know. If Israel falls, many Israelis will move to Ukraine. ABN
Jews were behind the Armenian Genocide in 1915-1923. (Pictured – Armenian film reenactment of young Christian girls crucified alive in Malatia, as a mockery of Christ)
1.2 million Christian Armenians were sent on death marches to the Syrian Desert in 1915 and 1916. Driven forward by paramilitary escorts of the Ottoman Empire, Under the direction a Judaic/Masonic sect named ‘The Young Turks’. After a successful coup in Turkey, driven by Jewish revolutionaries, ‘The Young Turks’ celebrated their victory by committing Christian genocide and did so as barbarically and as demoralizingly possible.
The ‘Armenian genocide was decided between August, 1910 and October 1911, by a Young Turk committee composed entirely of displaced Balkan Jëws in the form of a syncretist Jèwish-Masonic sect which included Talaat, Enver, Behaeddin Shakir, Jemal, and Nizam posing as Muslims. It met in the Rothschild-funded Grand Orient Lodge/Hotel of Salonika, where the plan of a coup and genocide was planned, a plan that is well documented.

The poster at the link provided clarifies that the execution scene in the photo is a reenactment from an Armenian film of a purported genuine event. ABN
