🇯🇵 Japan just pulled off a world-first: fired a ship-mounted electromagnetic railgun from the JS Asuka and nailed a target vessel at sea. The gun uses massive electricity to hurl projectiles at nearly 7 times the speed of sound, insane kinetic punch with no explosives needed. The US spent...

💥🔫📐 Happy Rail Gun Proves Flat Earth Friday! As a former EM2 Nuclear Electrician’s Mate in the Navy (2010-2014), I know a thing or two and that this math 🧮 proves the globe false. 6,668 feet of missing curvature over 100 miles! 🤯It is clearly mathematically impossible on a globe for these hypersonic projections to hit targets low to the ground over 100 miles away! This absolutely destroys the fake globe and proves you have been duped by NASA lies and the Rockefeller globe brainwashing education system since the 40’s-50’s when they reached the firmament dome in Antarctica and began this Truman Show deception under 33rd US Pres. Truman. Wake up globers and stop fighting the obvious fact that we aren’t on a moving or curved ball! ⚓️💯🚢The US Navy rail gun has officially crossed from false globe theory to flat earth reality. The United States has announced its long discussed railgun concept and has entered military deployment phase. This weapon uses no gunpowder and creates no explosion. Instead it relies on electromagnetic force to launch solid metal projectiles at several times the speed of sound when fired. The projectiles rips through the air purely through kinetic energy and the most unsettling part isn’t the speed -it’s the cost. A traditional missile can cost millions of dollars per shot. A railgun round requires only electricity and a simple metal slug. That single difference rewrites the logic of modern warfare saturation. Attacks are no longer limited by missile stockpiles but by how much electrical power a nation can generate. This also creates a nightmare for defense systems. Hypersonic projectiles leave almost no time to detect, track, or intercept. There may be no warning and response window. US Department of Defense calls the railgun a defensive breakthrough. This one shifts war from who has the most missiles to who has the most energy.

🇯🇵 Japan was absolutely unstoppable in the 1980s Walkmans, VHS players, Sony TVs, and Honda cars were everywhere. Japan had become the world’s factory. The US was in panic mode — smashing Japanese cars, slapping tariffs, and starting trade wars. Sound familiar? Here’s the full story. After WWII, America deliberately flooded Japan with technology and patents to create a strong ally against communism. Japan didn’t just copy it — they refined and improved everything. Soon their products were cheaper, higher quality, and dominating global markets. By the mid-80s, Japanese carmakers were eating into Detroit’s lunch. Reagan was furious. Even Trump was publicly complaining that Japan wasn’t buying enough American goods. Then came the Plaza Accord of 1985. The US, Europe, and Japan agreed to weaken the dollar and strengthen the yen. It worked — but too well. Japanese exports suddenly became expensive. Money poured into Japan, inflating a massive bubble in stocks and real estate. Japan started buying Hollywood studios and flaunting its wealth. Then the bubble burst. What followed was decades of stagnation. “Zombie companies” were kept alive on cheap government credit. Innovation dried up. Apple, Microsoft, and Samsung rose while Japan faded. China watched closely, copied the model — but made sure to keep control of its currency. History doesn’t repeat, but it sure rhymes.

🚨America Just Changed the Economics of War… With Light For years Iran built a strategy around one brutal equation. Launch thousands of cheap drones. Force the defender to burn through million-dollar interceptors. Bleed the defense dry. It was simple math. A Shahed drone costs roughly $30,000. Stopping it with traditional missile defenses can cost hundreds of thousands… sometimes over a million dollars per intercept. Repeat that attack a thousand times and suddenly the defender is spending billions just to stay alive. Iran understood this. They designed an entire doctrine around it. Flood the sky with cheap weapons. Overwhelm air defenses. Make defense more expensive than offense. But something just changed. The United States Navy has now deployed HELIOS, a directed-energy weapon mounted on an American destroyer operating near Iran. HELIOS is not a missile. It is a laser. And it runs on something every warship already produces… Electricity. No missile to reload. No magazine to empty. No resupply ship needed. As long as the ship’s generators are producing power, the weapon keeps firing. That means the cost of stopping a drone is no longer measured in missiles. It is measured in electricity. In practical terms… Destroying a $30,000 drone can now cost less than the power bill of a large apartment building. That single change breaks the entire economic foundation of drone saturation warfare. For years Iran invested in the strategy that made Shahed drones valuable. Cheap. Numerous. Disposable. But if directed-energy weapons like HELIOS can burn drones out of the sky at near-zero cost… The math flips. Suddenly the attacker is spending money… while the defender spends almost nothing. CENTCOM has already released footage showing HELIOS mounted on a U.S. Navy destroyer in waters near Iran. Earlier tests confirmed the system successfully destroyed multiple drones during live trials. Now the system is deployed where hundreds of Iranian drones and missiles have been passing through the same airspace. This is not a laboratory experiment anymore. This is a real battlefield. And the world is about to find out whether the future of missile defense is not another interceptor… But a beam of light. Because when America decides to change the physics of war… It usually succeeds. #SilentMajoritySpeaks #AStoneGroove

🇦🇪🇮🇷 The UAE just released its war numbers and one stands out Since the war started: 357 ballistic missiles, 15 cruise missiles, and 1,815 drones fired at the UAE alone. Three military personnel and six civilians killed, 166 injured. But today's count was 9 drones and zero ballistic missiles. That's a potential shift. Iran may be running low on the short-range ballistic missiles it has been using to target the Emirates. Drones are cheap and easy to produce. Ballistic missiles aren't, and every factory that built them has been bombed for four straight weeks. This matters beyond the Gulf. Those same ballistic missiles, fitted with cluster warheads that split into dozens of bomblets at 23,000 feet, have been one of Iran's most devastating tools against Israel. A single warhead shatters into so many pieces that even Iron Dome and David's Sling can't track them all, which is how Iran caused over 100 casualties in Arad and kept hitting Tel Aviv night after night. If the missile stockpile is genuinely depleting, both the Gulf and Israel could see the pressure ease significantly. Zero ballistic missiles today could be a blip. Or it could be the first sign that four weeks of factory strikes are finally showing results. Source: Open Source Intel AI Telly

Japan's Defense and Technology Japan today has a modern and powerful navy. The Japanese fleet currently has about one-quarter the number of VLS cells compared to the Chinese navy, and this number will increase with the commissioning of additional ASEV destroyers and Mogami-class frigates. I believe that within 6–8 years, the Japanese navy could become the fourth-largest in the world in terms of VLS cell count. However, there are areas where Japan, despite its cutting-edge technology, still needs to improve, specifically two: anti-ship missiles and drones, but also become more independent about naval air defense systems. The Japanese fleet still largely relies on the Type 90 SSM on many ships, which has a range of only 150 km, and on the Type 17 SSM, which is being introduced slowly and has a range of 300–400 km. In the coming years, there is talk of a version with up to 900 km range and the introduction of a ship-launched Type 12. Air defense systems remain heavily dependent on the United States, primarily using the SM-2/SM-6 and SM-3 on the most modern ships. Japan is an island nation and has historically always developed its own naval designs and equipment. It needs partners, but it must also maintain its own indigenous models. Another point is that a country as modern and pioneering in so many fields cannot afford to lack its own drone industry. Today, Japan operates American HALE drones such as the RQ-4 Global Hawk (manufactured by Northrop Grumman) and the MQ-9B SeaGuardian as its primary MALE platform for maritime surveillance. It is also testing Turkish and Israeli drones. This means that in any conflict, Japan could run out of reconnaissance drones in a very short time. The situation is quite different in South Korea, where there is a robust domestic drone industry led by companies such as Korea Aerospace Industries, Korean Air Aerospace Division, Hanwha Aerospace, and the Agency for Defense Development. Although South Korea still relies on foreign suppliers for HALE drones, it already has indigenous MALE models like the KUS-FS, along with other systems under development. In the next 5–10 years, long-range anti-ship missiles (1,000–4,000 km) will become a reality on Japanese ships and submarines. However, I still do not see independent projects in the fields of air defense systems or drones. South Korea obviously has different priorities from Japan, as it faces a much more precarious security situation. But if Japan also wants to establish itself as an exporter, and it is already doing so, it needs to demonstrate greater independence and a truly cutting-edge portfolio. On the current trajectory, if the country resolves the drone issue (as I believe it will), Japan should reach a world-leading level within 10 years or less.

‼️‼️🇯🇵 Japan’s announcement that its Improved Land-Based Type 12 anti-ship missile has completed a series of live tests in the United States marks a notable development in Tokyo’s expanding stand-off strike capabilities. Traditionally designed as a coastal defence weapon with much shorter range, the upgraded Type 12 now reportedly approaches ranges in the 900–1,000 km class, enabling it to threaten naval surface action groups well beyond Japan’s immediate coastlines and into key areas of the East China Sea. This extends Japanese ground forces’ role from static coastal defence to deep strike and sea denial, complicating potential adversary naval maneuvers and contributing to broader regional deterrence. Completed testing also demonstrates the importance of Japan-U.S. interoperability in weapons development, integrating data from multiple trials to validate performance in contested environments. Strategically, this shift aligns with Tokyo’s broader defense posture — propelled by increased defense spending and evolving doctrine to confront complex security challenges, especially from China’s naval expansion and modern missile forces.

Japanese Biggest Mistake in History. On December 7, 1941, Japan launched a surprise military attack on the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor, located in Hawaii. The attack was carried out by the Imperial Japanese Navy using aircraft launched from six aircraft carriers. The goal was to destroy the U.S. Pacific Fleet and prevent the United States from interfering with Japan's military expansion in Asia and the Pacific. During the attack: Over 2,400 Americans were killed Nearly 1,200 were wounded 8 battleships were damaged or destroyed 300+ aircraft were destroyed The attack lasted about two hours and caught the U.S. completely off guard. Japan did not formally declare war before the strike. The next day, December 8, 1941, the United States declared war on Japan. This event directly led to America's entry into World War II, changing the course of the war. Pearl Harbor is remembered as a turning point in history and a symbol of the dangers of surprise attacks. Today America 🇺🇲 stands tall again.

🚨🇮🇷🇨🇳If America Can’t Handle Iranian Missiles, It’s Not Ready for China In just the first 16 days of war against Iran, the United States expended nearly 40% of its THAAD interceptors. If America’s most advanced air defenses are struggling against Iran—a regional power with a fraction of China’s capabilities—there is no plausible scenario in which the US is ready for a showdown with Beijing. The Chinese Arsenal The People’s Liberation Army operates the world’s largest missile inventory, backed by a rapid-action doctrine designed to dismantle U.S. bases and infrastructure in the early stages of conflict. Unlike Iran’s Kheibar Shikan and Sejjil missiles, China’s DF-27 anti-ship ballistic missile and DF-17 hypersonic glide vehicle offer advanced mid-air maneuverability and sustained hypersonic speeds. With an estimated range of 8,000 kilometers, the DF-27 places U.S. naval installations at Pearl Harbor and Everett, Washington within striking distance—allowing China to threaten American assets without deploying a single ship. Strategic Implications According to Dr. Andrew Erickson of the US Naval War College, China is the first nation to operationalize an armed ICBM. These capabilities could cripple U.S. operational effectiveness across East Asia and complicate the defense of American interests in Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and the Philippines in the event of armed conflict. Depleted Defenses Even as Patriot and THAAD struggle against less sophisticated Iranian missiles, Western analysts warn that a large-scale Chinese attack could overwhelm U.S. defenses by depleting interceptor inventories entirely. With THAAD replenishment not expected until April 2027, the fragility of current stockpiles is increasingly difficult to ignore. The Central Question If US air defenses are depleted in the Middle East after just over two weeks of fighting Iran, how will they withstand a Chinese arsenal that dwarfs Iran’s—particularly when the DF-27 can already reach American soil?

The US has spent $11.3bn on 5,500 military strikes in just the first six days of the war. President Trump says Iran has been totally destroyed, but Iran is still carrying out low-cost drone and mine attacks towards its neighbours in the Persian Gulf. This small but steady warfare has effectively stopped cargo ships from crossing the vital Strait of Hormuz, which connects Iran and the countries of the gulf to the rest of the world. That means oil and gas can't move, threatening to spike global oil prices and turning the conflict into a grueling war of financial attrition. While very few Americans have died, the US military has a problem: the expensive systems it uses to stop enemy drones cost much more than the cheap drones being fired at them. Is this how Iran, despite being vastly overpowered, can find a way to win this war?

🚨🇨🇳 WEST IN PANIC: China Arms Warships With World’s Largest Naval Gun Beijing just put the largest 155mm naval gun ever built through sea trials — a system explicitly sized for sustained, high-volume shore bombardment in an amphibious campaign. 🔸 China's new 21.8-tonne 155mm naval gun from Norinco is already at sea trials on the Wu Yunduo experimental ship with a stealth turret and guided munitions. 🔸 The US Zumwalt-class destroyers once carried 155mm guns but replaced them with vertical launch missile systems after custom ammo costs reached $800,000 per round. 🔸 This gun gives PLA amphibious ships artillery-battalion-level sustained fire coverage ideal for suppressing Taiwan coastal defenses at a fraction of missile costs. 🔸 The system is fully compatible with the PLA Ground Force's existing 155mm arsenal, including guided, cluster, and rocket-boosted rounds with potential 100-200km range. 🔸 As mature technology, it can also provide barrage defense against drone swarms and USVs while supporting low-intensity operations in the South China Sea. Do you think Taiwan's coastal defenses can handle China's large-caliber guns?

🚨🇮🇷🇨🇳 IRAN WAR JUST BLEW UP AMERICA’S CHINA WAR PLANS The short war with Iran didn’t just burn through US missiles — it proved America is nowhere near ready for a real fight with China. 🔸 MISSILE STOCKPILES GUTTED: In just the first 40 days, the US fired off huge amounts of its best air defense and attack missiles. 🔸 BASES TURNED INTO EASY TARGETS: US bases in the Middle East got hammered by Iranian drones, missiles, and jets — buildings wrecked, radars destroyed, and troops forced to work from hotels. 🔸 AIR DEFENSES FAILED HARD: Iran knocked out key US radars and ground defenses, showing they can’t protect bases even against a weaker enemy. 🔸 STAND-OFF WEAPONS DIDN’T WORK: US only destroyed about 50% of Iran’s missiles and launchers — they couldn’t stop the attacks completely. China has way more, Western sources reports. 🔸 NO REAL AIR OR SEA CONTROL: US planes still faced risks and Navy ships had to stay far away. Their blockade let many Iranian ships through. 🔸 DRONE PROBLEM EXPOSED: Iran beat the US in drone use (air and sea). America is far behind, while China is the world leader — no “hellscape” for Chinese forces. America’s whole Pacific strategy relies on these same bases, carriers, and long-range strikes… and they just failed against Iran. Do you think the U.S. stands a chance in a great power war against China?

Do you think the U.S. stands a chance in a great power war against China?

🇦🇷 ARGENTINA GATHERED 2,397 GOLDEN RETRIEVERS IN ONE PARK... AND IT MIGHT BE THE MOST WHOLESOME MOMENT OF THE YEAR Over 2,000 golden retrievers descended on a Buenos Aires park and absolutely obliterated the previous record of 1,685 set in Vancouver. The sound of barking could be heard from miles away. The park turned into a sea of yellow fur, slobber, and wagging tails. Dogs showed up in Argentine soccer jerseys, tutus, and Star Wars bandanas. Organizers tried to get a group photo of just the dogs but quickly realized no owner or golden could handle even a few seconds of separation. This is the news we all needed. Source: AP

Today we're announcing our new office and autonomous fleet in Japan! 🙌 This has been a year in the making — here's the story behind Wayve's journey to Japan 🇯🇵 Just over one year ago I was looking over the Tokyo skyline as we were completing our Series C fundraise, wondering how our AI would navigate the narrow winding streets. At that point it was a dream, but in the last year, it has become reality. The right team at the right time: 6 months ago we made our first hire in Japan. I'm grateful for Masa Kameyama taking a bet on Wayve and for his partnership leading our presence in Japan (we have a lot of great people around Wayve called Masa 😄). I'm excited about the opportunity to welcome world-class and diverse experience to Wayve's team. We're hiring and building an awesome team in Japan! The right product at the right time: for a long time I've been impressed by Japanese automaker's scale and leadership in safety and lean manufacturing. Now I'm witnessing bold and brave decisions from automotive executives to lean into AV2.0. There is an opportunity for Japanese automakers to leap-frog other markets to be the first to bring AV2.0 to global scale. We are delighted to be partnering with Nissan Motor to make this a reality in 2027 and to be working with partners like Uber, タクシーアプリ S.RIDE(エスライド) 公式アカウント and SoftBank. Fast forward to yesterday, I landed in Tokyo and was treated by being picked up by one of our autonomous vehicles! Today, I’ve just got off stage at our press conference, launching our brand new Testing and Development Centre in Yokohama and autonomous vehicle fleet in Japan. Our fleet of autonomous vehicles are now testing around the world in UK 🇬🇧, Germany 🇩🇪, Canada 🇨🇦, US 🇺🇸 and now Japan 🇯🇵. This is an important proof point showing Wayve is capable of being a global company and delivering the benefits of Embodied AI to consumers around the world.

‼️‼️🇷🇺🇨🇳 BIG | Beijing and Moscow are taking their "no-limits" partnership deep into the Yellow Sea, flashing serious naval muscle right on Washington’s doorstep. The Chinese and Russian militaries have officially launched their massive "Joint Sea-2026" bilateral naval drills in the waters and airspace off the strategic port of Qingdao. Russia's Pacific Fleet deployment features high-value assets, including the guided-missile cruiser *Varyag*, the corvette *Rezkiy*, the diesel-electric submarine *Ufa*, and the specialized rescue vessel *Igor Belousov*. Mirroring this force, China's People's Liberation Army Navy has committed the advanced destroyers *Kaifeng* and *Anshan*, the frigate *Wuhu*, the comprehensive supply ship *Kekexili*, and a submarine rescue ship, all supported by shipborne helicopter units. Running until July 13, the high-stakes maneuvers will focus on aggressive joint operations, including anti-submarine warfare, coordinated air and missile defense, and joint artillery strikes, to be immediately followed by combined maritime patrols across the wider Pacific Ocean. This deployment isn't just a routine training exercise; it is a calculated geopolitical message aimed directly at the U.S. and its regional allies, coming just days ahead of the NATO summit. By conducting sophisticated multi-domain warfare drills in the highly sensitive Yellow Sea, Beijing and Moscow are signaling that their strategic alignment is actively hardening into an operational military axis capable of challenging Western maritime dominance in the Indo-Pacific.

When the US glide bomb struck the IRIS Shahid Sayyad Shirazi near Qeshm Island on March 4, the impact triggered an involuntary event that nobody in the coverage has fully examined: the stricken corvette spontaneously launched one of its own anti-ship missiles. The weapon fired itself. Not as a last act of defiance from a crew executing a terminal order. The structural damage from the strike activated the launch sequence without human input. That detail is the most technically significant event in the naval dimension of this war. The Shahid Sayyad Shirazi is the third vessel of the Soleimani-class, the IRGC Navy’s most advanced surface combatant. Pennant FS313-03. Commissioned February 2024. The class was Iran’s answer to the problem of contested littoral warfare in the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz: a wave-piercing catamaran hull approximately 65 to 68 meters in length, composite construction designed to reduce radar cross-section, four indigenous diesel engines producing confirmed speeds of 32 knots with promotional claims reaching 45, and an armament package that makes every other ship in its weight class irrelevant by comparison. Six anti-ship cruise missiles of the Noor, Ghadir, or Nasir class on deck launchers. A vertical launch system carrying between six and sixteen Sayad surface-to-air missiles plus additional cells for Abu-Mahdi long-range cruise missiles. Six 20-millimeter Gatling guns. A helipad for a medium combat helicopter. Capacity to deploy three fast-attack boats simultaneously. On a 600-tonne displacement hull. Iran built this ship specifically for the Hormuz chokepoint. The catamaran design provides speed and stability in the confined, shallow waters of the Gulf that a conventional monohull cannot match. The composite hull reduces the radar signature that adversaries need to acquire targeting solutions. The VLS integration gives a vessel of this size a defensive envelope against air attack that most navies reserve for ships four times the displacement. The speed and fast-boat deployment capacity fit exactly into the IRGC Navy’s doctrine of saturation from multiple simultaneous vectors. A US aircraft dropped a single glide bomb. The ship caught fire. It spontaneously launched a missile. CENTCOM confirmed the strike. Multiple cameras captured the burning hull offshore Qeshm Island with smoke rising through the Strait of Hormuz. The spontaneous missile launch is the detail that defines the engagement. A VLS or deck-launched anti-ship missile under normal conditions requires crew input, targeting data, and deliberate firing authorization. When a strike disrupts the electrical and structural integrity of the vessel sufficiently to trigger an unintended launch, the weapon system designed to protect the ship becomes a hazard launched into the Strait of Hormuz at whatever bearing the launcher happened to be pointing. Every tanker, patrol boat, or allied vessel within the weapon’s acquisition envelope during those seconds faced a missile fired by a ship that no longer had a crew in control of it. No second-order casualties were reported from the spontaneous launch. The missile either failed to acquire a target, impacted water, or flew a trajectory that missed occupied vessels. The outcome was fortunate. The mechanism was not controllable. Iran commissioned this ship fourteen months ago. It was designed to be their most dangerous surface unit in the world’s most contested waterway. It fired its own weapon at the waterway it was built to control before going down.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Iran's playbook against U.S. Navy destroyers isn't about winning a fair fight. It's about throwing so many threats from so many directions at once that something slips through. During Project Freedom, the USS Truxton and USS Mason hit the Strait and Iran immediately launched a synchronized barrage: swarms of fast attack boats, drones saturating the airspace, and anti-ship missiles fired from the coastline simultaneously. The Aegis systems on both destroyers intercepted the missiles. Army Apaches and Navy Seahawks tore apart the speedboat swarm with Hellfire missiles and 30mm chain guns before the boats ever reached the merchant ships. Iran didn't sink anything, but that may not be the point. One successful hit on a carrier or destroyer doesn't have to be catastrophic to work. It just has to make the water feel too dangerous to operate in. Source: AiTelly

BREAKING:🚨 CHINA LOCKS JAPAN IN ITS CROSSHAIRS Reports now confirm that Chinese J-15 fighter jets targeted Japanese aircraft with fire-control radar—twice—in the skies south of Okinawa. This wasn’t harassment. It was a military signal. Those jets took off from the carrier Liaoning, which has been operating aggressively across the Taiwan theatre for days. Japan responded immediately, scrambling assets and elevating alert status. Let’s be clear: When a fighter jet uses fire-control radar, it is not surveillance. It is a combat-ready lock-on. And it comes at a moment when: • China’s naval expansion is unprecedented • Tokyo has publicly warned it may respond to Chinese aggression over Taiwan • The region is shifting from posturing to readiness This could be the most serious Japan-China confrontation in years. For decades, Okinawa has been treated as the frontline buffer. Today, it looks like the ignition point. What happens next won’t just shape Asia—it will reshape alliances, supply chains, deterrence strategies, and potentially draw in the United States. China just signalled intent. Japan just signalled preparedness. The fuse is shorter than most realise.

Masahiro Shinoda explains why it was impossible for the Jesuits to impose their religion in Japan: "Interviewer: Is 'Silence' (1971) critical of the very fact of the Catholics coming to Japan and imposing an alien culture on the Japanese? Shinoda: Japan is an island surrounded by the sea. Many cultures from outside have come here. Japan could not refuse them. The sea current itself conveyed these foreigners to Japan’s southern shores. Japan’s culture thus consists of many, many foreign cultures in a mixture. Sometimes it caused us to lose our essential Japanese culture. I’m not even sure sometimes what Japanese culture is. In the sixteenth century Christianity and the gun were introduced into Japan. The introduction of the gun was a traumatic event and had a much deeper impact than did Christianity. The Japanese people were perplexed, but they are a realistic people and they made their choices pragmatically, giving up the metaphysical. We are empiricists, materialists. Interviewer: If I had made that movie, I would have questioned the right of the Jesuit priests to come to Japan and impose their ideas on the Japanese. Shinoda: No, it was impossible for the Jesuits to impose their religion on the Japanese because of the animism believed in by this insular, island people. It was not to be destroyed by so severe a religion as Christianity. Christianity destroyed the Roman gods, but the Japanese gods were protected by the softness of Buddhism. Buddhism is so soft that it was absorbed into the Japanese culture of the time. The Japanese people believed that Buddhism could easily marry with Shinto, and thus Japanese culture is a mixed breed of both religions. Then Christianity came, but by this time the native animism of Shinto and Buddhism were already coexisting in harmony. I think that there was no room for an additional religion. All Eastern religions are in accordance with a belief in the oneness of man and nature, whereas Christianity deals with the relationship between one man and another. When movies, or film culture, were introduced into Japan they were already based on modern Western thought. But Japanese culture influenced the kind of films that would be made here, despite the Western origins of the cinema. I must categorize the films of the world into three distinct types. European films are based upon human psychology, American films upon action and the struggles of human beings, and Japanese films upon circumstance."

🚨 WOW. This footage of Sec. Marco Rubio in 2015 is resurfacing where he CALLED IT PERFECTLY on Iran, 11 YEARS ago Now he's overseeing the END of this regime with Trump 🔥 "I know what is going to happen in regards to this if it goes through. Iran will immediately use the money that it's receiving in sanctions relief to begin to build up its conventional capabilities." "It will establish the most dominant military power in the region outside of the United States and it will raise the price of us operating in the region." "They're going to build anti-access capabilities, rockets capable of destroying our aircraft carriers and ships." "Continue to build these swift boats that are able to come on us, these fast boats that are able to swarm our naval assets." "They'll also work with other terrorist groups in the region to target American servicemen and women. And they may or may not deny that they're involved." "They'll also continue to build long-range missiles, missiles capable of reaching the United States." "And then at some point in the near future, when the time is right, they will build a NUCLEAR WEAPON." "And they will do so because at that point they will know that they have become immune, that we will no longer be able to strike their nuclear program because the price of doing so will be too high." "Iran is led by a supreme leader who is a radical Shia cleric with an apocalyptic vision of the future." "I pray that on their first day in office, they will reverse this deal and reimpose the sanctions and back them up with a credible threat of military force, or history will condemn us for not doing what needed to be done at this critical moment in the world's history." 🇺🇸
