I. Introduction
In the ever-evolving pharmacopeia of modern medicine, few substances have traveled from criminalized taboo to mainstream therapeutic darling as rapidly as cannabinoids. Once dismissed as the intoxicants of the counterculture, compounds derived from the cannabis plant are now in the process of being scientifically reevaluated with clinical rigor. This reevaluation is particularly crucial as global health systems, including but not limited to those in [specific countries or regions], stagger under rising rates of anxiety, sleep disorders, and neurodegenerative decline.

Exposed: The hidden network of pro-Israel lobbyists infiltrating U.S. newsrooms to control narratives on Palestine—revealed in groundbreaking investigations.
Israeli Omertà of U.S. Press
I. The Perception Gap
Silencing Dissent opens with a stark question: Why does U.S. news coverage on Israel–Palestine often appear unbalanced—even as global media calls out bias? Despite mounting criticism from independent and international outlets, American mainstream channels repeatedly feature narratives that tilt pronouncedly pro-Israel.
Recent investigations prove this is not accidental. For instance, a MintPress News exposé revealed that hundreds of former lobbyists affiliated with AIPAC, StandWithUs, and CAMERA now hold influential positions in major outlets—including MSNBC, The New York Times, CNN, and Fox. These insiders, often without disclosing their prior affiliations, shape coverage of Middle East affairs from behind the scenes (MacLeod, 2025) [MintPress News]

1. Campaign Contributions & Pro-Israel Funding
One of the most powerful pieces of evidence of the crypto-Zionist nature of US foreign policy is the funding for these political figures from pro-Israel billionaires and Zionist political action committees (PACs). These donations of money are not gifts per se—they are investments in American Foreign Policy Decisions that serve predilect Israeli interests ahead of the real interests of the American people. Spoken of Zio-influence peddling is nowhere more evident than in the case of Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, J.D. Vance, and Pete Hegseth, whose campaigns have been well-funded by Israel-first donors and Zionist lobby groups.
Trump's Mega-Whale-Donor: Miriam (and Sheldon) Adelson
A massive portion of Trump's war chest comes from the Adelsons, whose PAC influence on his administration has been extensively documented. Miriam Adelson, in particular, has been one of Trump's strongest allies, giving over $106 million alone in 2024 to Trump's campaign and her super PACs that support him. This money is bribery with an agenda attached to it—Miriam and the late Sheldon Adelson have been loudly outspoken for years regarding their commitment to advancing Israel's hardliner Zionist geopolitical agenda, including the outlawed annexation of the West Bank and relocation of the US embassy to Jerusalem. The DeepState affiliations of the Adelsons with Israeli defense companies and pro-Israel groups, funding the Maccabee Task Force and AIPAC, among other activities, ensure that their political donations are made with an expectation that Israeli interests will take priority over all others in US foreign policy (The Guardian, 2024; Wikipedia, 2024; Times of Israel, 2025).

From Victims to Executioners: A Karmic Reckoning for Zion and the West
I. Karmic Return and the Collapse of Exceptionalism
On June 21, 2025, as B-2 bombers streaked across the night skies and bunker-busting ordnance cracked the bedrock of Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, the illusion of American restraint shattered. President Donald Trump—returning to power not with reconciliation but with rupture—ordered the bombing of Iran's most fortified nuclear sites, igniting what may be remembered as the opening salvos of World War III. These were not just tactical strikes but ritual acts of geopolitical hubris, culminating decades of unrepented violence masquerading as virtue.
Israel, having spent generations invoking Holocaust memory as a shield against scrutiny, has now fully inverted its origin myth. Once the symbol of post-war survival, it now stands accused of implementing slow genocide in Gaza, criminalizing Palestinian existence, and dragging its warmongering, fearmongering, professional injustice collecting empire into yet another catastrophic war. And America—imperial, exceptionalist, and numb—follows suit, bombing in the name of peace while the ashes of Gaza still rise.

I fiercely loved him and miss him as he epitomized the best that humanity has to offer to heal the world of its wrongs: Fixing the world:
Tikkun olam(Hebrew: תִּקּוּן עוֹלָם).
Some of us are born to be troublemakers, rebels, dissidents and breakers of wrong social systems and bad government patterns. John Lewis, certainly, was one of them as he strived throughout his whole life to serve improvements for the world in general and corrections for its unjust and unfair harms.

Natural Gas Reserves: Iran has the world's second-largest proven natural gas reserves, only after Russia. Its reserve is approximately 1,200 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) and constitutes a substantial 16-17% of the world's natural gas reserves.
I. The Cradle of Civilization and the Folly of Invaders
The Middle East was never a blank page, it is a living text-written in cuneiform, blood, oil, and ash-where each empire that came with the temerity to write its name has been crossed out. The Tigris and the Euphrates nourished wheat, but they also fertilized the roots of civilization.

Note: 2025 *we live in a time when nothing but the unequivocal truth must be acknowledged.*
Netanyahu.
Danger.
Double, triple trouble danger.
You might think ‘he’ is a normal human being.
But he lacks a capacity to empathize with non-Jewish peoples, like, frankly, too many Zionists (which is one reason he has remained in power for so long). Theirs is a supremacist and racist society.
Moreover he is a sociopath—cunning to say the least.
Moreover he is a maximalist and consummate liar and is widely known to be so. Ditto for this chosen culture:
The people of Gaza are not only being starved, bombed, and murdered. They are being erased from global consciousness by a wall of deception

Netanyahu (repeatedly) cries Nuclear Wolf; pictured in 2012 with a red marker telling us Iran was "going nuclear" in 2012 in front of the U.N. General Counsel.
I. A War Foretold, Repeated, and Now Delivered
For more than thirty years, Benjamin Netanyahu has addressed parliaments, security forums, and global assemblies with a singular, unyielding message: Iran is perpetually on the cusp of nuclear breakout. These proclamations—apocalyptic in tone, selective in evidence—have echoed across decades, transcending administrations and political cycles, yet rarely recalibrated to reality.
Much like George W. Bush’s invocations of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, Netanyahu’s warnings have functioned less as grounded intelligence assessments than as strategic overtures for escalation. The nuclear menace, repackaged every few years with updated graphics and darker metaphors, has served to normalize extraordinary violence under the guise of urgent defense.

Parade, Protest & Projectile
We are urgently called—by custom, media, or the relentless churn of the day—to witness. Witness the parade. Witness the war. Witness the ticker inching past news of missiles, of cities ravaged, of another speech delivered from behind the mirrored glass and barbed wire.
But what if the watching itself is the cage?
Trump's June procession was no mere celebration; it was a summoning. Steel beasts, polished and paraded, were made to look holy. Flags snapped like whips in military time. The president, grinning like a butcher over a pig, waved from atop the altar of the Empire. And across the nation, something ancient stirred—not in the marble halls, but in the calloused hands and sleepless eyes of the working folk.

Israel has an unusual pastime. He likes to provoke fights in bars—specifically with bouncers. Not with patrons in general, not with pool sharks or irate drunks, but full-time bouncers, men carved out of concrete and protein powder, schooled in the art of pain management, i.e.: handing it out.
To the naked eye, it's madness. Israel's not a fighter. He's all elbows and alibis, bony and thin, with a tangled mess of wild hair and a snarl on his lip that announces he knows he'll never have to pay for what he's done. Because Israel's got Sam.
