An American tech company allegedly helped a foreign country plan a terrorist attack on a U.S.-allied nation, injuring nearly 4,000 people and killing children. The UN condemned the attack as a war crime. That company, Palantir, receives over half its funding from U.S. government contracts and holds $10 billion in U.S. Army contracts. In a just society, executives involved in such actions would face prison—not continued taxpayer funding. Who will hold them accountable?
Every time there’s a terrorist attack, politicians use it to cut back civil liberties. We saw it with the Patriot Act, which is still in place decades later. Tragedies are repeatedly used to justify permanent expansions of state power.
Second, normalize sexual pleasure as the central analogy for divine encounter. If the deepest human experience of unity is orgasm, then that becomes the template for mystical union. The body scan with “no part of the skin insensitive” is the formation of a particular way of inhabiting the body, where spiritual attention deliberately passes through explicitly erogenous zones.

UK government vows to ‘ramp up’ use of facial recognition, biometrics in policing - "Live facial recognition could be the end of privacy as we know it" and lead to an "authoritarian surveillance state," director Silkie Carlo warned.
Police will be better equipped to track down dangerous criminals as the government launches a consultation on how forces should use facial recognition and biometrics, in what could be ‘the biggest breakthrough since DNA matching’. Facial recognition is used to locate wanted suspects in public places, find vulnerable missing people and identify offenders more quickly through footage obtained from CCTV and doorbell cameras. In the last two years, the Metropolitan Police made 1,300 arrests using facial recognition including rapists, domestic abusers and violent criminals and found more than 100 registered sex offenders breaching their license conditions. The consultation will pave the way for new laws so all police forces can use this new technology with greater confidence and more often. Crime and Policing Minister, Sarah Jones, said: Facial recognition is the biggest breakthrough for catching criminals since DNA matching. It has already helped take thousands of dangerous criminals off …

Obama went to a kindergarten yesterday and was reading woke books to youngsters. How scandalous, and the Church keeps her silence because Obama is one of her apostles.
Absolutely brutal… The EU Commissioner of Industry: "Last month, I was supposed to go to Brazil to discuss a rare earth mine. 3 days before, we were told that the Americans had already come, put money on the table, and bought all production until 2030."

World, Europe Kremlin says US national security strategy document ‘largely consistent' with Russia's vision Spokesman Peskov says Moscow hopes this could be 'modest guarantee' that they'll be able to continue joint constructive work on finding settlement in Ukraine The Kremlin said that the US administration’s new national security strategy document is “largely consistent” with Russia’s vision. “The adjustments we're seeing, I'd say, are largely consistent with our vision,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Russian journalist Pavel Zarubin in an interview, a fragment of which was shared on his Telegram on Sunday. Peskov expressed Moscow’s hope that this could be a “modest guarantee” that they will be able to continue joint constructive work on finding a settlement in Ukraine. He further argued that US President Donald Trump's domestic political position is strong, which allows him to adjust the country's national security strategy to suit his vision. Peskov also said that Russia …
A Vatican commission set up by Pope Francis in 2020 concluded that the Catholic Church should not move forward with ordaining women as deacons, based on historical and theological findings that rule out admitting women to the sacramental diaconate. However, the commission emphasized that its conclusion is not a final or definitive judgment.
The Vatican on Thursday published the conclusions of its study commission on women deacons. The Commission rules out admitting women to the diaconate understood as a degree of the sacrament of Holy Orders, but without issuing a definitive judgment at this time. The report stresses repeatedly that the negative assessment is “strong” yet “does not permit formulating a definitive judgment,” unlike the case of priestly ordination. Submission of the Report to Pope Leo XIV On 18 September, Cardinal Giuseppe Petrocchi, President of the Study Commission on the Female Diaconate, submitted to Pope Leo XIV a detailed synthesis of the Commission’s work. The report reflects several years of historical, theological, and pastoral investigation. Historical Findings: A Non-Sacramental Ancient Practice The Commission revisited the findings of two earlier Vatican commissions. Historical research confirms that, in the early Church, the title deaconess appeared in different regions and periods, but with …More

Bob Woodward also wrote a "biography" on John Belushi that was so defamatory that you had to question his [Woodward's] integrity for so characterizing such a likable and talented character as Belushi was.
And, sadly, this anti-Christian belief has come to the West by invitation and free government services. Thanks to the tax payers. It's nothing short of suicidal. Try to enter an Islamic nation and build even one Christian church or pray in public.
Pope Leo XIV has laid a wreath at the tomb of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk — the leader whose regime completed the destruction of Anatolia’s ancient Christian communities after the Armenian, Greek, and Assyrian genocides. Foreign dignitaries usually perform this ritual, but a Pope?
