Our terrorism tips in this country are going who knows where. A couple of people complained to me that when they tried to pass terrorism tips to both DHS and the FBI, they were told to pass them instead to local authorities. When asking local authorities, they said they don’t have the purview to deal with terrorists who have not committed a crime. Obviously those of us in the community know this, so why are everyday Americans told to pass information to their local authorities. So, I tested it myself. I googled "DHS terrorism tip," and went to the See Something, Say Something page which was a top result, and clicked “report a tip”, like Scott noted, I got Tampa's Emergency Management Office when filtered down to my local reporting location. I was dumbfounded. What the heck are they going to do with a terrorism tip!? I used to volunteer for Pinellas County Emergency Management, and I can assure you they don’t moonlight on the weekends as terrorist targeters. So why is our system set up where tips go to improper agencies? It’s time to learn where they are going in your state and your community. Go ask questions. You might hear that no one is getting them, which means no one is working them. The system is currently broken. I discussed this on Ironclad’s Bordland podcast with Vincent Vargas and tips related to border issues face a similar problem: no one knows where to send them or where they go. Vincent drop that clip if you have it handy. How the heck did we get here?! #Terrorism #PublicSafety #HomelandSecurity #EmergencyManagement #Seesomethimgsaysomething #CommunitySafety #BorderSecurity

They don't want a Peace, They don't want a State, All they want is to build an Empire of Hate! We're dealing with a global threat, not just a regional one. If their goal is to convert the world to Islam by global Jihad and establish the Islamic state worldwide, then the West's ethical and moral values are at stake. Israel is their first target but not the last, then New York, London, Paris and many others are next. Hamas is not just about destroying Israel, it's about destroying the West. They're not waiting for their turn to roll the dice, they're already tearing down our flags, our streets all the way on the other side of the world. The Empire of Palestine isn't just a place on a map. It's a symbol of a world turned upside down, where losing is winning, and life is secondary to ideology. The world needs to know that they are next! Keeping Hamas in power brings them closer to your door. Action must be taken NOW! Follow Ari Gottesmann for more insights, and humor, as well as to become part of a movement not afraid to stand up to those spreading hatred across all platforms.

Here’s the text sent by the man (Rhidian Brook) himself after I tweeted him 🥰 Good Morning, I enjoy a good conspiracy theory – lizards taking over our bodies, or a sinister cabal running the world – as long as it’s an entertaining fiction in which I am free to suspend belief. But in recent years a belief in sinister plots that once belonged in the Twilight Zone or Dan Brown novels has been slowly rising and crossing into a more mainstream understanding of reality. Conspiracy theories are now seen as one of the single biggest threats to democracies. And with more countries holding free elections this year than ever, a flood of disinformation is anticipated. Telling the difference between a conspiracy theory and the truth matters – for if enough people belief a bogus theory about, say, Covid or Climate Change it can have dire consequences. As Naomi Klein observed: ‘Alternative theories once deemed too ridiculous to take seriously, have become too serious to be ridiculous.’* When a friend of mine shared a video that endorsed some of these ideas, I felt obliged to go down the rabbit hole, if only to see what was there. Rabbit hole is the right description. It was a dark, confusing, exhausting place - and there are no rabbits. What I did find was a strong sense of grievance. Sometimes legitimate anger at institutions, or powerful individuals; but also a disengagement from trying to solve the actual problems people are facing in favour of focusing on fantastic ones. How quickly these grievances are being exploited. Weaponised by people trying to make money or win votes. ‘Fake news!’ I hear someone cry. If conspiracy theories have a tone, it is one of blame. It is often someone else’s fault. Just never the fault of the one doing the accusing. There seems a total absence of self-examination. When asked what is wrong with the world, GK Chesterton replied ‘I am.’ This seems like a good place to start. It’s certainly where the Gospel starts. When Jesus announced the good news to a rabble of tired and probably fearful people, he didn’t point the finger of blame at others. Nor did he seek to delegitimise the government or the law. He said, ‘Come all who are heavy laden’ and ‘my burden is light.’ He then called them to examine themselves – their actions, their thinking, their hearts – for this was where his kingdom would be established; to bring what was in the dark into the light. Some have described the Kingdom of God as a divine conspiracy. If it is, it’s a conspiracy built on love. To conspire means to breath together. This is impossible if we are gasping for breath out of panic from fear. Perhaps we need a great breathing together, to join a conspiracy of kindness, in which words and actions are not performed in the dark but in the open for all to see and share. *The quote uses a Phillip Roth line from Operation Shylock.

Humanity has always been caught in the paradox of conflict and peace. War, with its devastating impact, has left deep scars on countless societies throughout history. It tears apart families, destroys communities, and leaves lasting trauma on those who experience it. Yet, amidst this turmoil, there is an unyielding desire for peace a universal longing shared by all of humanity. Humanity's true strength lies in its capacity for empathy, compassion, and cooperation. These qualities are the bedrock of peace. They enable us to understand the pain of others, to heal wounds, and to build bridges across divides. Peace is more than the absence of conflict; it is the presence of justice, equity, and mutual respect. It is about creating a world where every person can live with dignity and opportunity. I don't know who needs to hear this but the world need peace, give it a break with all the war and fighting
