“The U.S. House of Representatives warned of a serious threat to national security. This information was also confirmed by U.S. President’s National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, writes Jeff Seldin, a Voice of America correspondent.” (msn.com)
Is this the threat to national security? Is this true or false news? Who knows!
“Russia is planning on launching a nuclear weapon into orbit, where it will threaten US national security by either being used to strike the US within a matter of moments or be used to knock out US satellite grids in a single explosion. The US is convening national security meetings to find a way to stop this launch from happening.” (lifeboat.com)
you’re worried about russia!!!???
I see you have yet to figure things out.
What @GadSaad admitted seems to be a simple explication for 7 July 2005 London bombings.
There was a official checking of security at exactly the stations where it happened.
How is that not a window under the left circle, and natural lighting (in the tunnel)?
There is a possible false flag impending this weekend. Mossad is openly recruiting people offering payment to infiltrate pro-Palestinian protests while dressed to appear Muslim. Twitter/X is blocking my tweets exposing it.
https://x.com/Kathysadr1967/status/1757913401098154277
War is escalating between nations. War is being fought using weapons made possible by rapid advances in key sciences and technologies. At the top of the list is artificial intelligence. It thinks much faster than humans do, yet humans believe they can use it and even control it. Some even believe that it is the savior of humanity. One day those who believe this will find out how wrong they are!
Not “worried about Russia” Dogismyth, just relaying the information being shown via this medium.
“Explosion Reported At Russian Space Agency’s Rocket Engine Plant In Siberia.” – Newsweek
Hard for Russia to launch rockets without rocket engines.
