The Strait of Hormuz is just another example of an old familiar tactic. Familiar, that is, to those who study it. Do not forget the ways the Muslims used the tactic of Anti-Access and Area Denial on March 18, 1915.
"The great Turkish Naval Victory in the Dardanelles 111 years ago is one of the most striking examples of this. During the First World War, the Turks, who collapsed economically, had a weak navy and were militarily backward. They won a great victory against the Royal Navy Mediterranean Expeditionary Force, the most powerful navy in the world at the time, by using the advantage of mines, coastal artillery and geography.
"This fight was not only a military success but also a triumph of strategic thinking. The Dardanelles naval battle is therefore considered one of the most historically powerful examples of the A2/AD doctrine. This event is not merely the result of a war; it is also a major turning point that affects the course of the world war and international political balances. Today, 111 years later, the lessons learned from Çanakkale are still of great importance for modern naval strategy.
"A weak state was able to stop the world’s most powerful navy with the right defense system. The biggest weakness of imperialism is not only its arrogance, but also its mistaking its technological superiority for strategic superiority. On March 18, 1915, this mistake collapsed in the face of the brotherhood of mines and barrels. In the 2026 Gulf War, the same mistake is being tested again in the face of the brotherhood of UAVs and ballistic missiles. Yesterday, the aggressive British-French joint navy could not cross the strait in Çanakkale. Six proud high-tech warships were destroyed by the primitive Muslims with nets and mines. The British then tried to attack by land and lost 58,000 men in just a few months. The result? Disaster. Total defeat, embarrassment, and the collapse of the ruling government in Britain.
"History reminds us once again that brute force is not always decisive in a narrow geography, under determined defense and in the face of a common order of fire. Sometimes it’s not the size of the largest navy that changes history; It is a defensive architecture established in the right place at the right time. Trump recently decided to send the 31st Marine Expeditionary Task Group, (MEU) which carries 2500 marines stationed in Japan, to the Persian Gulf. If history repeats itself with an interval of 111 years and this incoming MEU attempts to invade the Strait region we can already say that most of the marines may be lost with great defeat for US military."
US military planners Trump, Hegseth, and the Joint Chiefs should read the memoirs of Churchill, who was the Minister of the Navy in the First World War during the Gallipoli Disaster. (Winston Churchill World in Crisis- 6 volumes)

We don’t know. Are plans being made for a magnificent sarcophagus? Something like the huge, elaborate one he imagined for Charlie Kirk? Not that I know of. When will be the day of his death? I don’t know, but his Creator has already appointed the day and the hour.
Will his funeral be meaningful, theologically? With Christian theology? I don’t know that either.
But I have been impressed with the funeral of one great nobleman who died 25 years ago at age 99, buried in Austria. His final resting place was not elaborate, but significant. It was in the crypt of a Capuchin church, the place where his royal ancestors, monarchs of a vast, 600-year-old empire, had been entombed for centuries. The crypt was locked and guarded by Capuchin friars.
Prince Otto von Habsburg, born in 1912, would have been the next in line as king of that empire, but Hitler invaded Austria and ordered the arrest and murder of the prince, who escaped into Europe and played a leading role in world affairs for ...
First, ivermectin appears to target cancer stem cells—the small, highly resistant population of cells that drive recurrence and metastasis. Most conventional therapies fail to eliminate these cells. You can shrink a tumor, but if the stem cells remain, the cancer often comes back. Laboratory data suggest ivermectin disrupts this root system.
Second, mebendazole interferes with microtubule formation, which is essential for cell division. When you disrupt microtubules, cancer cells lose their ability to replicate effectively. This creates a direct anti-proliferative effect.
Third, mebendazole also impacts tumor metabolism, particularly glucose utilization. Cancer cells are heavily dependent on glucose to fuel rapid growth. Limiting that pathway places them under significant metabolic stress.

In about ten hours the polls in Hungary open. Then, over the next 13 hours Hungarians will decide if they want a culture of life or a culture of death and slavery. Those stakes affect not just one nation, and not just one continent but the entire Western world.
If elected again, the current government of Viktor Orban will continue boldly down the path which will honor Christian Hungary’s thousand-year legacy of fighting for freedom. Orban will continue unashamedly to champion the case for a painstaking return to a European Christendom. He is setting the example of how that can be done, even in a land oppressed by decades by communism.
The alternative candidate is a feckless puppet of the popular globalist agenda, which will then sweep over Hungary like a storm, destroying Hungary’s progress, sovereignty, economy, freedom of speech and courageous governmental reforms. But most threatening of all is the plan to invalidate and annihilate all of Orban’s efforts to remind Hungary of ...
