the Taliban is creating a large-scale camera surveillance network for Afghan cities that could involve repurposing a plan crafted by the Americans before their 2021 pullout.
I see that the Taliban is taking notes from it’s Western occupiers. London has more security cameras per capita than Beijing and Los Angeles isn’t far behind. Kabul is slacking.
Who’s consuming? China, the single biggest driver of increasing oil consumption for the past few decades, is predicted to hit peak oil this year and their oil demand is collapsing due to the massive market share of EVs in the Chinese market.
The Gulf Stream plays a significant role in maintaining the climate of the US East Coast and Western Europe. “We conclude with a high degree of confidence that Gulf Stream transport has indeed slowed by about 4% in the past 40 years.” The full study is Here
Not clarifying the curbs is the entire point. Biden wants to reduce US investment into China in aggregate and doesn’t care where that happens. The “totally tight and totally limited” curbs are just a cover that Biden is using to justify his policy.

It’s fair to be critical of Hersh’s use of anonymous sources, but it was those same anonymous sources that enabled him to cover the so-called “weapons of mass destruction” and “nuclear materials” used to justify the invasion of Iraq. It’s not like this article is coming from a journalistic non-entity. Hersh has a pretty stellar record as far as journalism uncovering government corruption.
No detectable amount of tritium has been found in fish samples taken from waters near the crippled Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant, where the discharge of treated radioactive water into the sea began a month ago, the government said Monday....
People have been far more concerned about the efficacy of the ALPS system at extracting other contaminants than they are about tritium contamination. The ALPS system is unproven and the wastewater they’re releasing would be pretty toxic as far as other radioactive isotopes is concerned if the ALPS system isn’t doing it’s job perfectly.
All Ukraine said is that Russia deployed 15000 men to Bakhmut and that Ukraine fighting in Bakhmut keeps them from being redeployed to the Zaporizhzhia front… Sensationalist titles, much?
