It's a new Iron Curtain. Six German men and two German women, citizens on paper, tried to leave their homeland for a congress of European minds, the “Remigration Summit” in Italy, a gathering meant to discuss the restoration of harmony between land and lineage.
But they were stopped at a German airport, interrogated for hours, and then banned from going anywhere internationally for two days. By bureaucrats with badges.
The official reason? “They might damage Germany’s international reputation” if they happened to say anything in Italy about what was really going on back home in Germany.
Writes Constantine Von Hoffmeister:
"Free speech, that ancient contract between citizen and state, has become conditional. You may speak but only if your words wear velvet gloves. You may think but only if your thoughts arrive sterilized. You may question but only inside the margins drawn by Davos. And if you dare to assemble across jurisdictional lines with others who refuse the narrative, the exit point becomes a trap. To leave becomes subversion. To travel becomes threat. This is Germany now — a land once torn by a wall of concrete, now ruled by walls made of ideology and algorithm. The surveillance is softer, the chains more invisible, yet the prison more complete. How many minds will wither in silence because they fear that even thinking wrong will mark them?"

Will a closed Strait hurt Iran? In terms of international oil sales, yes, but in terms of daily life, no. Iran pumps 3.5 million barrels of crude oil per day. The situation at this hour:
