The Gulf Co-operation Council has always done better as a travel-and-trade zone than a political bloc. The war in Iran exposed this lack of unity—and may heighten it
🚨DEARBORN HAS BEEN CONQUERED BY AN ISLAMIC ARMY - WITHOUT FIRING A SINGLE SHOT.
For the 13th consecutive year, the March for Justice flooded the streets of Dearborn (Rashida Tlaib’s district) to honor Imam Hussain (AS).
Not one American flag in sight.
Instead, Shi’ite religious flags flew high, including from a helicopter in prior years, as a blatant show of power and foreign allegiance in the heart of America.
🚨Jihadi Mayor Abdullah H. Hammoud proudly welcomed the crowd:
“Welcome to Dearborn’s annual March for Justice. This march commemorates Imam Hussain’s unwavering commitment to justice and the stand that he took over 1400 years ago, standing against oppression, and it’s a commitment that we renew each and every single day, each and every single year in this march for justice that we’re so proud to host in the city of Dearborn.”
What does “justice” actually mean here?
It does not mean the American concept of liberty, equality under the Constitution, or freedom for all.
In this context, “justice” means everyone living under Sharia, Islamic supremacist law, where non-Muslims submit, women are second-class, free speech is replaced by blasphemy laws, and criticism of Islam is forbidden.
This is the same ideology that has conquered Dearborn demographically and culturally.
This is the same mayor……
who last year viciously attacked a Christian resident at a City Council meeting. He called the man a “bigot,” “racist,” and “Islamophobe” and declared:
“You are not welcome here.”
All because the Christian questioned honoring a terrorist.
The same mayor now celebrates a march that rejects American symbols and renews commitment to a foreign religious-political system....
U.S. media stayed silent on the raw display of power
Dearborn facts the media won’t highlight
Arab capital of North America with the highest concentration of Muslims per capita in the U.S. (majority Shiite).
Home to America’s largest mosque.
Restaurants and businesses display signs in Arabic.
All meat in Dearborn public schools is halal, a textbook example of using minority demands to impose Sharia elements on the non-Muslim majority.
This is not integration.
This is seizure of control by an ideological army that advances through birth rates, immigration, politics, and cultural dominance.
Dearborn is just the latest Western city Islamic supremacists have taken over without a shot fired.
They march openly now, renewing their oath to “justice” that ultimately means Sharia for everyone.
America, this is your future if you stay silent.
The army has already planted its flags.

Rescue teams raced to find more survivors of the two powerful earthquakes that struck Venezuela this week, with signs of life bringing occasional relief to a grim quest to whittle down a list of tens of thousands missing.

Jeff Bezos' ex-wife MacKenzie Scott has given over $26 Billion to charity, mainly to progressive radical left groups like Planned Parenthood, lgbtq orgs, and open border advocates who are destroying our country.
But Democrats and the media told me
@elonmusk is evil because he could solve world hunger with just a few billion dollars and hasn’t done it…
Why aren’t they saying the same of MacKenzie Scott??
It’s almost as if it’s not actually about solving world hunger or giving charity and it’s just about attacking political opponents and making sure the Democrats’ non profit/NGO money laundering ring is being funded so they and their friends can continue to get richer…

Japan's Prime Minister briefed her country with wet hair last night. Beijing would have detained the citizen who filmed it.
At 10:29 p.m. on Friday, a magnitude 5.6 earthquake struck Japan's Yamanashi Prefecture, registering a maximum seismic intensity of lower 6 in the town of Fujikawaguchiko at the foot of Mount Fuji. By 11:15 p.m. — forty-six minutes later — Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi was standing at the Prime Minister's Office briefing the nation. Crisis management center activated. Director-general-level emergency gathering team convened. Human life first. Information to the public, promptly and accurately.
She was also visibly straight out of the bath.
Hair still wet. No makeup. Takaichi posted on her own X account a short time later, in plain language: she had come directly from the bath without time to dry her hair or apply makeup, and apologized for her appearance. She did not have to volunteer that detail. She chose to.
That choice is the story.
Because somewhere about 1,700 miles to the west, operating under the same physics but a very different political philosophy, the first hour after a magnitude 5.6 earthquake would have looked nothing like this. It would not have been spent activating a crisis center, dispatching emergency teams, and putting the head of government in front of cameras to admit she had rushed straight out of the shower. It would have been spent deciding what to tell the public, what to delete, and which citizen with a camera to detain.
We know because we have watched it happen.
In Wuhan in early 2020, the doctors who tried to warn the world about a novel coronavirus were summoned by police and forced to sign confessions for "spreading rumors." The citizen journalists who filmed the morgues and the sealed apartment doors — Chen Qiushi, Fang Bin, Li Zehua — were disappeared by the state. Fang Bin would later be sentenced to three years in prison; he was held for the duration.
In Zhengzhou in July 2021, passengers drowned trapped in a flooded subway tunnel while state propaganda ran headlines about heroic rescue. When BBC correspondent Robin Brant asked the local government how a metro system less than a decade old could leave passengers to die on a platform, the Henan branch of the Communist Youth League posted his whereabouts to its 1.6 million followers and called for people to track him down. Death threats followed within hours.
In Hebei in August 2023, when the floodwaters from Typhoon Doksuri had to go somewhere, authorities diverted them away from Beijing and into Zhuozhou — and the Hebei provincial Party Secretary, Ni Yuefeng, publicly declared the province would "serve as a moat for the capital." Videos of the submerged villages disappeared from Chinese social media within hours.
And in Sichuan in 2008, after a magnitude 8.0 earthquake killed at least 5,335 schoolchildren in school buildings that collapsed while government offices nearby remained standing — what citizens named "tofu-dreg schoolhouses" — the writer Tan Zuoren tried to compile a list of the dead. He was sentenced to five years in prison. Huang Qi, the activist who tried to help the parents, got three years; in 2019, the Party gave him twelve more on state-secrets charges. He is still inside.
The pattern is not a series of accidents. It is a system. In the People's Republic of China, the function of the state in a disaster is not to serve the public. It is to protect the Party from the public.
Compare and contrast.
In Tokyo on Friday night, the head of government decided that telling the country what she knew, forty-six minutes after the ground stopped shaking, mattered more than how her hair looked. In Beijing under any equivalent scenario, the head of government would not be at a podium for hours, or days. The citizens with cameras would already be on a list.
Wet hair is not the real headline. Wet hair is the headline because of what it accidentally exposes: a democracy is a system that runs toward its citizens in the dark. A dictatorship is a system that hides from them.
Sanae Takaichi did not need to apologize for her hair. The Chinese Communist Party owes apologies it will never make, to families whose dead it never named.
