Massive wildfires are tearing through Patagonia, displacing communities and destroying protected land. As the fires spread, local residents have begun reporting something unsettling: foreign individuals caught allegedly setting fires, with multiple reports pointing to Israelis.
Authorities say investigations are ongoing.
Patagonia is not just wilderness, it is one of the most resource-rich, sparsely populated regions on Earth:
• Freshwater reserves
• Fertile land
• Strategic geography
• Low population density
It is also a region that has long attracted foreign interest, legal and otherwise. This brings up a term many Argentines know well: Plan Andinia.
Plan Andinia refers to a mid-20th-century geopolitical concept, discussed in Argentine military and intelligence circles, proposing the establishment of a Jewish state or autonomous zone inPatagonia under certain conditions.
Whether speculative or strategic, it was real enough to be studied, debated, and feared. Plan Andinia was never implemented. But ideas do not need to be implemented to shape behavior. They need only to justify long-term positioning.
Land acquisition, NGO influence, tourism corridors, dual citizenship flows, security cooperation these are far more common tools than tanks.
Argentina’s south has seen:
• Large-scale foreign land purchases
• Restricted-access estates
• Private conservation zones with opaque governance
• Foreign security personnel operating under civilian cover
Wildfires introduce a new variable that Israelis will love…. forced displacement. Throughout history, environmental destruction has often preceded land reorganization.
Not because fires prove intent but because chaos creates opportunity:
• Emergency powers
• Property transfers
• International “assistance”
• Reframing of sovereignty as “management”
There are credible reports of Israelis caught setting fires on the hiking trails of Patagonia. In 2011, an Israeli was caught setting a fire that burned 17,000 acres of Chilean Patagonia.
When communities feel their land is being taken, reshaped, or destabilized without consent, they remember history.
Argentina has its own history with foreign interference, IMF restructuring, and externally imposed “solutions.” In that context, Patagonia is not peripheral. It is strategic. And Plan Andinia persists not as a plan, but as a symbol of vulnerability.
Wildfires should unite a country in defense of its land, not silence discussion.
History doesn’t repeat verbatim but it rhymes, especially when land is burning.
I have read that The land in question is legally protected and cannot be sold unless it is burned in a wildfire; then it can be sold and Milei is apparently doing just that. ABN

Protests in Iran continue for a second consecutive night on 10 January 2026, despite a nationwide internet blackout and escalating government crackdowns, with demonstrators defying threats of severe punishment The unrest, which began on 28 December 2025 over a currency crisis and soaring inflation, has now spread to at least 190 cities and entered its third week, marking one of the most significant challenges to the Islamic Republic in decades
Iranian authorities have imposed a near-total internet shutdown since 8 January, confirmed by NetBlocks, in an effort to suppress information and disrupt protest coordination—a move described by experts as a “digital kill switch”
Security forces have used live ammunition against protesters, with human rights groups reporting at least 48 deaths, while the US-based Human Rights Activists News Agency claims 116 killed, including seven under 18, and over 2,600 arrested
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei dismissed protesters as “vandals” and vowed the regime “will not back down,” while also warning U.S. President Donald Trump that he would be “brought down” for interfering
Trump has repeatedly threatened Iran, stating the U.S. would “start shooting” if protesters are killed and declaring “Make Iran Great Again,” signaling strong support for the demonstrators
The UN-mandated fact-finding mission on Iran has urged the government to halt violence and restore internet access, expressing alarm over reports of unrestrained crackdowns
Exiled opposition figure Reza Pahlavi has called for continued protests and nationwide strikes by energy and transport workers, amplifying pressure on the regime
International condemnation has grown, with the leaders of the UK, Germany, and France condemning the killings, and UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper praising the protesters’ courage
Erika Kirk was reported to Child Protective Services (CPS) for child neglect and abandonment, according to multiple sources. The report allegedly originated from her nanny, who raised concerns about the children’s well-being and Erica’s prioritization of her public image over her parental responsibilities. This led to a CPS investigation, which uncovered significant concerns about the children’s emotional state and the lack of consistent parental presence. The court subsequently ordered immediate state-approved therapy for both children, indicating the severity of the situation. Despite viral claims on social media suggesting that custody had been transferred to Charlie Kirk’s parents, a fact-check from January 9, 2026, confirmed there is no verified source supporting the claim that Erika Kirk has lost custody of her children. However, a custody dispute is ongoing, with reports indicating that Charlie’s parents are involved and concerned about the children’s welfare. The situation has sparked widespread public scrutiny, with critics questioning Erica’s motives and parenting, particularly given her rapid return to public life and fundraising efforts following her husband’s death.

Falsified history, envy, inferiority complex, and White historical success all contribute to many non-Whites hating White people. Add to that actual sh*tty White behavior and many decades of anti-White mind-control coming from many angles, and the talk above rings very true to me. Whites have contributed enormous time and wealth to the intended well-being of others with good results in some areas but with the overall result that far too many non-Whites believe they deserve even better treatment and nothing is going to overcome their antagonism.

Iran is experiencing one of the most serious challenges to its theocratic rule since the 1979 revolution, with widespread protests and economic collapse placing the regime under unprecedented pressure The unrest, which began in late December 2025 with a merchants’ strike in Tehran’s Grand Bazaar over soaring prices and currency devaluation, has evolved into a nationwide political revolt spanning over 145 cities across 28 of Iran’s 31 provinces The Iranian rial has plummeted to around 1.4 million per US dollar, inflation has exceeded 50%, and food prices have surged more than 70% year-on-year, eroding public trust in the government’s ability to manage the economy
Protesters are no longer demanding reforms but are explicitly calling for regime change, chanting “Death to the dictator” and “This is the year of blood – Khamenei will be overthrown” The regime has responded with live fire, internet blackouts in major cities, and mass arrests, resulting in at least 30 deaths, mostly of young people, and hundreds injured Despite this, the intensity of the protests has not diminished, and demonstrations have spread to previously quiet towns and religious centers like Qom, signaling deepening societal unrest
The regime’s ideological foundation is also crumbling. The narrative that sacrifices in the form of economic hardship and military spending were necessary to challenge Israel and the West has been undermined by Israel’s decisive 12-day war in June 2025, which severely damaged Iran’s nuclear and missile programs and exposed its military weakness This has led to a crisis of legitimacy, with even President Masoud Pezeshkian admitting that failure to address economic grievances could lead the country “to hell”
A critical factor in the regime’s survival has been the loyalty of the military, particularly the regular armed forces (Artesh), which have historically refrained from political involvement while the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) handled internal repression However, there are growing signs that the Artesh may no longer remain neutral. Officers, many of whom come from families suffering under the economic crisis, may begin to question their allegiance, especially if they perceive the regime as doomed Historical precedents, such as Romania in 1989 and Egypt in 2011, show that regime collapse often occurs when the military withdraws support
Analysts warn that while regime collapse is possible, it is not guaranteed The opposition remains fragmented and lacks centralized leadership, which could prevent a coordinated transition The regime still possesses coercive power, and hardliners may resist any move toward negotiation However, the combination of economic collapse, loss of ideological legitimacy, and potential military defection suggests that Iran may be approaching a tipping point
International rhetoric, including U.S. President Donald Trump’s statement that the United States is “locked and loaded” to protect Iranian protesters, may further influence the calculations of Iranian military leaders, signaling potential external support for a break with the regime While such statements do not guarantee intervention, they contribute to the perception that the current regime is increasingly isolated and vulnerable
In sum, while the Iranian regime has not yet fallen, it is facing its most precarious moment in decades, with structural weaknesses, mass unrest, and potential fractures within the security establishment making collapse a real possibility
