It seems that what was once a clandestine operation, the presence of two Israeli outposts deep within the Iraqi desert, has now come to light, ending months of secrecy. The initial discovery, apparently, wasn’t made by intelligence agencies, but by chance, by a local shepherd named Awad al-Shammari. His accidental stumble upon these hidden bases, while on a simple errand, tragically led to his death and injured others when Israeli forces reportedly opened fire on investigating Iraqi troops. This incident, which has not been widely reported until now, paints a disturbing picture of the lengths taken to maintain secrecy, and the potential cost to innocent lives.… Continue reading

The agency’s involvement has escalated, ranging from intelligence sharing to direct participation in lethal operations, a significant expansion of its previous willingness to act within the country. While the CIA declined to comment, a spokesperson characterized the reporting as false and potentially damaging.

The Russian cargo ship Ursa Major, reportedly carrying two nuclear reactors, sank mysteriously off the coast of Spain after suffering explosions. Recent military activity around the wreckage, including the presence of US “sniffer” aircraft, has fueled speculation about the ship’s cargo and the circumstances of its sinking. The Spanish investigation suggests the ship may have been struck by a specialized torpedo and later additional explosions occurred after a Russian spy ship arrived on the scene. This extraordinary event may represent a covert Western operation to prevent nuclear technology from reaching North Korea, a key Russian ally.

The Wall Street Journal has reported that the United Arab Emirates has been secretly conducting attacks against Iran, a revelation that has sparked considerable discussion. It’s worth noting that this alleged covert campaign wasn’t entirely unknown, with some suggesting that the use of Mirage fighter jets, a type operated by few in the region, made it far from a complete secret. The report also hints that these actions were a direct response to prior Iranian attacks on the UAE, which in turn had provoked further retaliatory strikes from Iran.
The notion that the UAE has been subject to numerous Iranian provocations, reportedly in the hundreds, is often cited as a justification for a stronger defensive posture.… Continue reading

According to family members and Syrian officials, a U.S. raid in October intended to capture an Islamic State group official resulted in the death of Khaled al-Masoud, an undercover operative gathering intelligence on extremists. Al-Masoud had been working for insurgents and later for the interim Syrian government in their fight against IS. The incident highlights the complex political landscape as the United States begins to cooperate with the interim Syrian government, with neither side commenting on al-Masoud’s death. The lack of coordination between the U.S.-led coalition and the Syrian government could have contributed to the tragic outcome, underscoring the need for improved communication to prevent such mistakes in the ongoing efforts to combat IS.

Exclusive: US to launch new phase of Venezuela operations, sources say, and the news is… well, let’s just say it’s generating a lot of buzz. My initial thought is, this is happening, right? It seems pretty clear, given the chatter. The idea of a new phase, a renewed push, is definitely in the air.
This whole thing feels a little… familiar. The “war on drugs” excuse, the talk of national security, it’s all been done before. And frankly, the optics are terrible, especially when you consider some of the things that have been happening alongside it. There’s the whole issue of pardoning people who are actually involved in drug trafficking, the very thing they’re supposedly fighting.… Continue reading
President Donald Trump has confirmed he authorized the CIA to conduct covert operations within Venezuela, citing concerns over drug trafficking and the release of prisoners into the U.S. This acknowledgment follows recent U.S. military strikes in the Caribbean against alleged drug smuggling boats, some originating from Venezuela. The administration is also considering potential land operations and has declared drug cartels to be unlawful combatants. This has drawn criticism, with Venezuela condemning the actions and some U.S. lawmakers raising concerns about the administration’s escalation without Congressional authorization.

Meanwhile, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, whose legitimacy is disputed, has appealed for peace and condemned CIA-orchestrated coups. The exact nature and objectives of the CIA’s operations remain unclear, fueling fears in Caracas of potential US intervention.
