[IsraelTimes] Prosecutors reveal Nikolas Cruz wrote ’Nazi party will rise again,’ looked up swastika tattoos, and dispute that mother’s drinking during pregnancy caused mental health problems
Prosecutors in the trial of Florida school shooter Nikolas Cruz
...pre-attack diagnoses of autism, anxiety, depression and significant psychological problems, described as a troubled kid obsessed with guns — the police came to the family home frequently to deal with him. Mr. Cruz was adopted at birth, then his adoptive father died when he was young, followed into the grave by his adoptive mother a few months before he ran amok. So really he was a classic school shooter. Interestingly, his biological sister Danielle Woodard, a decade older, is classified as a habitual violent offender...
began their rebuttal of the defense case Tuesday by questioning whether his birth mother drank as heavily during pregnancy as some witnesses portrayed.

So the Parkland shooter was a pro-National Socialist and against GOD.
His far left leanings and Anti-GOD practices would fit right in with the LSD's then.
One @#$%-up mess. eg. 02-21-2018 FoxNews article: "Woman who cared for Florida gunman reportedly wants to control his inheritance" Roxanne Deschamps also had Zachary Cruz, the brother of shooting suspect Nikolas Cruz, involuntarily committed to a mental facility shortly after the massacre..."

[BenarNews] A new island has appeared near Tonga in the southwestern Pacific Ocean as an undersea volcano ejects lava, gas and ash. Scientists say the speck of land could quickly disappear.
The island appeared above sea level just hours after the volcano began erupting on Sept. 10, according to Tonga Geological Services and NASA Earth Observatory. Between Sept. 13 and Sept. 19 its area grew from about 4,000 square meters (43,000 square foot) to nearly 35,000 square meters. It rises some 15 meters above sea level.
Known as Home Reef, the submarine volcano has given birth to ephemeral islands in 2006, 1984 and twice in the 1850s, NASA Earth Observatory said. It’s part of an undersea ridge dotted with volcanoes that stretches from Tonga to New Zealand.
"Islands created by submarine volcanoes are often short-lived, though they occasionally persist for years," NASA Earth Observatory said.
Tonga’s geological service, in daily updates on its Facebook page, has said Home Reef currently poses a low risk to airplanes and the nearby Tongan island groups of Vava’u and Ha’apai. It has warned vessels to stay four kilometers away.
The eruption is a reminder of Pacific Island nations’ vulnerability to natural disasters. Ash fall and a tsunami caused by the eruption of the Hunga-Tonga Hunga Ha’apai volcano in January caused several deaths in Tonga and destroyed homes and crops.
[SAHARAREPORTERS] The protests were against economic hardship and a perceived failure by the government to cushion the impact of rising prices.
Fatima Bio, the wife of Sierra Leone’s president, Julius Maada Bio, on Tuesday said nobody can overthrow her husband, noting that he holds a PhD degree in staging coups.
No fewer than six coppers and at least 21 non-combatants were killed in August as hundreds erupted into the streets of Sierra Leone in frustration.
The protests were against economic hardship and a perceived failure by the government to cushion the impact of rising prices.
The protests were staged in opposition strongholds.
The president blamed the protests on the opposition, alleging that they were part of a plot to overthrow him, leading to the dismissal of the top three in the army, BBC News reports.
However, there's no worse danger than telling a mother her baby is ugly... speaking over the weekend at a fundraising event in the US, the first lady accused unnamed people of wanting to overthrow her husband.
In a video shared on Facebook, she said "Maada Bio has a PhD in coup d’état, can you remove him?" adding, "the man has a PhD in staging coups, how can you remove someone who teaches people how to stage a coup?"
Mrs Bio was making an apparent reference to the fact that her husband first came to power in April 1992 as part of a group of young military officers who overthrew the civilian government of Joseph Saidu Momoh of the All People’s Congress, the party he defeated at the polls in 2018 and whom he accused of being behind the August protests.
The opposition party vehemently denied the allegations. No, no! Certainly not! According to the report, many have condemned the statement with some of the moderate elements within her Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP) condemning it.
Mrs Bio, a user of Facebook and TikTok, who has been known to make controversial comments, has not responded to the reactions following her coup comments, nor has anyone in the presidency.

I scanned Bio's Bio. I saw no Klingon connection.
[SAHARAREPORTERS] Former Guinean dictator Moussa Dadis Camara and several co-defendants were sent to prison Tuesday.
This comes a day before their trial opens for the 2009 stadium massacre, their lawyers said.
The prosecutor had "our six clients taken to the central house (prison) where they will apparently be held until the end of the (trial)," Salifou Beavogui, one of the lawyers, told journalists outside the court.
"Very unfortunately, the trial is beginning with the violation of the defendants' rights," he added.
An AFP correspondent reported seeing a minibus — surrounded by several pick-up trucks — speed away from the brand-new court built especially for the trial.
Captain Camara and 10 other former military and government officials are due to appear in court Wednesday at 10:00 am (local and GMT).
A handful of defendants have already been detained for years. Those who were still free were detained Tuesday after being summoned at around midday, RFI reports.
On September 28, 2009, and in the days that followed, security forces loyal to the then-junta leader slaughtered more than 150 people and raped at least 109 women at a political rally in a Conakry stadium, according to a report by a UN-mandated international commission.
The real figures are likely higher.
Tens of thousands of opposition supporters had gathered in the stadium to peacefully demonstrate against a possible election bid by Camara, who had come to power in a December 2008 coup before being sworn in as president.
Numerous testimonies report that the presidential guard's Red Berets, coppers and Death Eaters entered the stadium around noon, cordoned off the exits and opened fire indiscriminately on the peaceful protesters.
The killers attacked unarmed civilians with knives, machetes and bayonets, leaving the stands, corridors and grass strewn with the dead and dying.
They sexually assaulted and then killed many women. Others were trampled to death in the panic.
International Sherlocks found the abuses could qualify as crimes against humanity, noting the brutality went on for several days against sequestered women and male detainees who were tortured.
On the eve of Wednesday's trial, Amnesia Amnesty International released a report calling for better protection for rape victims in Guinea and the "urgent" adoption of a comprehensive law on gender-based violence.
Camara, who had been living in exile in Burkina Faso ...The country in west Africa that they put where Upper Volta used to be. Its capital is Oogadooga, or something like that. Its president is currently Blaise Compaoré, who took office in 1987 and will leave office feet first, one way or the other... , returned to Conakry on Saturday night to stand trial.
According to his relations, he returned to "clear his name".
The international commission has accused him of "personal criminal responsibility and command responsibility".

...Given the way things usually work in that part of the world, they're lucky they weren't executed and then put on trial...

Here’s how the Times reported Mussolini’s victory 100 years ago:
MUSSOLINI, HOPE OF YOUTH, ITALY'S 'MAN OF TOMORROW'
- HARD WORK HIS CREED -
Scholar and Editor, Self Taught, Is Premier at Thirty-Eight
ONCE A SOCIALIST LEADER
Spectre of a Bolshevik Government Led Him to Organize Fascisti and Upset Cabinet.
By Alice Rohe
November 5, 1922
EVERYTHING is possible in Italy. The speaker was Benite [sic] Mussolini, the new Italian Premier; the place was Rome; the time— just the other day. Since then his words have become reality. He has been swept into the seats of the mighty on that overpowering wave of Fascismo. Just as Fascismo is a political phenomenon without parallel in history, so is Mussolini a leader without precedent. He is the political phenomenon of modern Italy, risen like a flame from the ashes of her cumbersome, confusing, parasite-covered bureaucratic régime.
To interview Benito Mussolini is not only to interview Italy’s "Man of the Hour," but Italy’s "Man of Tomorrow." He is that person, to the lack of whom Italy has long attributed her political misfortune—a strong man.
Mussolini has brought into the Italian situation that which it has lacked, and his achievements are proof of which discipline and organization, guided by an indomitable will, personal fearlessness, profound learning, straight thinking, [and] direct action can do.

As we know, the NYT is a mouthpiece and blind defender for LSD's. The NYT has a long history of supporting a lot of Regimes, Coups, Dictators, Socialists and just general Liberal losers that go on to imprison 10s of 1000s of innocent citizens and/or murder 10s of 1000s+.

[AA] French prosecution has launched an investigation against politician Valerie Pecresse into possible embezzlement of public funds for the financing of her presidential election campaign, local media reported on Tuesday.
The Gay Paree prosecutor's office on Monday opened a preliminary investigation on "embezzlement of public funds" against Pecresse, who contested presidential elections as the candidate of The Republicans party in April, a report in the BFMTV said.
The economic crime brigade (BRDE) will conduct the investigation into the case.
The action follows a complaint by Greens party leader Julien Bayou to the Gay Paree prosecutor's office in April, in which he alleged Pecresse of illegally procuring funds for her electoral campaign. According to Bayou, Pecresse, who is also the president of the regional council of Ile-de-La Belle France (Greater Gay Paree region), allegedly used funds allotted to the region, the report added.
According to BFMTV news, Pecresse denied the allegations. No, no! Certainly not! and said she will soon file a complaint for "slanderous denunciation."

[Rudaw] The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) has repaid over $628 million in ’previous debts’ to oil companies in the past six months, the KRG’s Department of Media and Information (DMI) said on Tuesday.
The DMI added that the KRG had fallen in debt to International Oil Companies due to Baghdad not sending the Region’s share of the federal budget, but as a result of increasing oil prices and decreasing domestic spending, the KRG has been able to repay some of the debts.
In the past six months, the KRG says it repaid the debts of oil companies more than twice as much as it did in the first quarter of the year.
Rudaw understands that the KRG owed between 1.6 to 1.7 billion dollars to the international oil companies operating in the Region in August.
The piled up debts mainly come as many of the contracts with international oil companies signed in the early stages of the KRG’s independent oil sales were signed with prepayment schemes, and the Kurdistan Region owes a large amount of money to those companies. This has made the region unable to pocket over 50 percent of its oil revenues at any point throughout the past eight years.
The KRG published its quarterly report, audited by Deloitte, which includes the government’s oil sales and income for the second quarter of this year.
The government exported 37.6 million barrels of crude oil and sold 237 thousand barrels to local refineries between April 1 to June 30, revealed the report.
The average price of a barrel of the exported oil was $100 while the KRG sold a barrel for $54 to local refineries.
The KRG collected $3.8 billion in the sales, pocketing nearly $1.6 billion net amount after paying the financial entitlements of oil companies and debts as well as transportation and storing fees.
The government made over $1.3 billion in oil sales during the first three months of 2022.
The KRG reported a total net income of over $3.9 billion throughout 2021, having exported over 152 million barrels of oil.
The surge in oil prices in 2022 has helped the KRG to resume paying its civil servants in full and almost on time after years of financial crisis - blamed on the war against the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference.

Question: Since it's a DEFCON 1 Go To War vital weapon, will the engines and parts used be made and kept here in Indianapolis, IN? Or will DC Swamp allow them to farm them out to its 8 ASIAN manufacturing locations?
Also, since Old school, has worked for 50+ years.
I have to question the implementing of a new technology to basically a 60-year-old airframe design that has undergone numerous changes.
WHY?
Having worked as backup IT Tech on the KC-130 Fuel Tanker Simulator @ SJ AFB, NC. I got to look at a lot of Declassified crash data and noticed the B-52 1950-70's models had an unusual number of right wing issues, leaks, detachments etc. causing a number of crashes. Understanding the BUF has had many upgrades over its life span. Will these new engines place a even greater strain on the Wing/Fuel Tank structure?
