BREAKING: South Korea is now making concrete preparations to deploy military assets and troops to the Strait of Hormuz, including P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft, Navy UDT EOD teams, and naval logistics support ships, per a high-ranking Ministry of National Defense official to SBS. The South Korean government, which previously maintained the position that it would only pursue Hormuz deployment after the US-Iran war ended, has now completely changed its policy and begun preparations for deployment despite the ongoing conflict. Consultations regarding ports of call and operational bases with neighboring countries are also underway.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
South Korean presidential office says reports of considering troop deployment to Hormuz differ from facts and no details decided, despite SBS citing anonymous official on preparations. en.yna.co.kr/view/AEN202609… koreajoongangdaily.com/korea/korea-we… news.sbs.co.kr/english/articl… news.sbs.co.kr/news/endPage.d…

I love how “hope all is well” is basically saying “I don’t really care how you are but I don’t want to seem impolite.”

After the 1848 revolutions, the nobility created the concept of communism as a psy-op to generate class warfare within the bourgeoisie, middle class, and workers in their efforts to promote liberalism, democracy, and socialism.

After Solomon's death, Israel splits in half with the north being Israel and the south being Judah. Assyria destroys Israel, Babylon destroys Judah. Judahite elites are exiled. Persia conquers Babylon 47 years later and returns the elite to Judah (now a Persian province).

At this point they are referred to as Jews (from Judah). Eventually, Persia gets conquered by Greece and everything is okay until the Seleucid Empire when the religion is interfered with leading to the Maccabean Revolt. Then, things get worse when the Romans take over.

The Seleucid Empire were Macedonian Greeks. They made a sacrifice to Zeus in the temple angering the Jews.

Cyrus the Great is considered the greatest leader in history because of his ability to unite the people of multiple empires and create a federation where all could benefit.

Steppe people (modern day southern Russia/eastern Ukraine) -> modern day Uzbekistan/Afghanistan/Turkmenistan (Oxus/BMAC). After merging, one group moves west and another group moves further south. The former end up as the Indo-Iranians and the latter end up as the Indo-Aryans.

This is where Zoroastrianism comes from. Proto-Indo-Iranians merge their religion (syncretization) with the local IVC religion creating Hinduism. The IVC pushes further south creating Buddhism.

Jews: Messiah returns, Jews return to Israel, Solomon's Temple is rebuilt, war of Gog + Magog led by the Antichrist (world unites against Israel), God intervenes and ensures Israel wins -> Messianic Age (Pax Judaica)

Christian Zionists: Jewish Messiah is the Antichrist, he establishes a world govt that ushers in the mark of the beast, people rebel against Israel -> war of Gog + Magog, Jesus returns and takes the Christians to heaven (rapture), kills 1/3 of Jews. 1/3 of Jews convert.

Frankists: Messiah is already here, accelerate the Messianic Age by sinning (defying Satan's rules and accelerating the collapse which will force God to intervene), Messianic Age will be material pleasure

For Homer, imagination is the animating force of the universe, whereas with Virgil, imagination is the destructive force of the universe.

Excess in wealth leads to a rat utopia where the old people with status don’t die thus halting social mobility for the young. This causes internal dissent which is what happened in Athens.

Only through destruction can innovation happen. Without the Bronze Age collapse, we wouldn't have had the polis, the alphabet, and Homer.

Individuality prevents us from working with and loving others, and that makes us slaves to ourselves which allows "the powers that be" to better control us. Christianity was designed to make us all into slaves. Modern art was a CIA op to counter the collectivism in communism.

They say that each person feels free in the presence of God, that is, in the presence of absolute emptiness.

We, ourselves, must choose to kill the cult of self.
