URGENT UPDATE:
This Tweet was there when I screen grabbed it and was gone seconds later. So no clue what is actually the case. The Tweet [on Truth Social] was there, and now it isn’t but you can see what it looked like when it was above
UPDATE: Iran launches 100 drones at Israel, oddly, exactly the sort of thing the Israeli military’s new Laser system was created to knock down.
A short while ago, dozens of IAF jets completed the first stage that included strikes on dozens of military targets, including nuclear targets in different areas of Iran.”
…
“Earlier, channels in Iran associated with the Revolutionary Guards reported explosions in Tehran, as Israel launched its preemptive strike in Iran.”“The goal of the operation is to remove the Iranian nuclear threat.”
…
“At the same time, sirens were sounded throughout Israel.“[…]Following a preemptive strike by the State of Israel against Iran, <b>a missile and drone attack is expected against the State of Israel and its civilian population</b> in the immediate timeframe.”
“Therefore, in accordance with his authority under the Civil Defense Law, Defense Minister Israel Katz has signed a special order, pursuant to which a special state of emergency will be imposed throughout the entire territory of the State of Israel.”
The public is urged to follow the instructions of the Home Front Command and the authorities and to remain in protected spaces…

BBC: US to partially evacuate embassy in Iraq over security threats
Reuters: US to pull some personnel from the Middle East amid rising tensions with Iran
Newsweek: US Embassy in Middle East Prepares to Evacuate After Warning From Iran
The top US general for the Middle East said Tuesday that China has been providing financial support to Iran, contributing to what he described as Tehran’s “malign behavior” across the region.
“The challenge we have with Iran… 85 to 90 percent of their oil is purchased by China. So, China is effectively supporting and financing Iran’s malign behavior,” US Central Command chief Gen. Erik Kurilla said.
Kurilla pointed to massive amounts of funds still going to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force (IRGC-QF), which runs proxy networks outside of Iran.For all the latest headlines, follow our Google News channel online or via the app.
Kurilla also highlighted the new sanctions under the Trump administration, which have targeted so-called teapot refineries. “These are refineries along the Chinese coast that these ships take this sanctioned oil… this is 10 percent of all Chinese oil,” he said during a House Armed Services Committee hearing.
Israel issues security warning for Jews and Israelis in Canada
The National Security Council (NSC) has issued a Level 2 travel warning for Canada, urging Israelis living in or visiting the country to take increased precautions. The NSC advises people to avoid wearing visible displays of Israeli or Jewish identity, such as symbols or flags, and to remain highly alert in public spaces.
The warning comes as anti-Israel protests are scheduled for today in cities like Toronto and Waterloo, with authorities noting a sharp escalation in rhetoric and threats surrounding these protests, the NSC says.
This appears to be a follow up but not verified yet:
But it looks like in a few days, things could ramp up quite a bit.
Days, Not Weeks: Israel’s Imminent Attack on Iranian Nuclear Sites
With a Fundamental Impasse on Nuclear Talks, Israeli Officials Have Shifted from Quiet Preparation to Barely Concealed Readiness
Israel will strike Iran’s nuclear facilities within days.
This sobering conclusion emerges from the convergence of alarming intelligence assessments, failed diplomatic efforts, and lessons from this week’s Middle East Forum (MEF) war game simulation. The Pentagon’s Defense Intelligence Agency now warns that Tehran can produce sufficient weapons-grade uranium for a nuclear device in “probably less than one week.” From Jerusalem’s perspective, this shrinking timeline leaves virtually no margin for error.
The fifth round of U.S.-Iran nuclear talks in Rome has crystallized the impossibility of a negotiated solution. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff’s departure mid-meeting on Friday—officially due to his “flight schedule,” while technical teams remained—signals more than scheduling conflicts. The core dispute remains irreconcilable: Tehran insists on its “right” to enrich uranium domestically, while Washington demands zero enrichment capability.
The tale of the tape:
So I asked Chat GPT what size bomb is required to create a 3.0 magnitude on the Richter scale:
The size of a bomb required to create a 3.0 magnitude event on the Richter scale depends on several factors, including the bomb’s energy yield, how it’s detonated, and the geology of the area. Here’s a general idea:
A 3.0 earthquake releases approximately 2 gigajoules (2 billion joules) of energy. This is roughly equivalent to:
Maybe there is some subtle linguistic distinction between local seismic detectors and the Richter scale. But if they are the same thing, then the answer above is very interesting, no matter how you interpret it.
Even so, if Chat GPT is correct and the largest ever non-nuclear bomb had a 44MT yield, then 500 MT has got to have meaning beyond the usual.
UPDATE:
Yes, recent reports confirm that Israeli airstrikes on Syrian military sites have resulted in explosions registering as a 3.0 magnitude earthquake. These strikes, among the most intense in over a decade, targeted munitions depots and military facilities near Tartus and other regions in Syria.
The Israeli Defense Forces conducted these operations to prevent advanced weaponry from falling into extremist hands, especially following the recent fall of President Assad’s regime. The airstrikes have drawn international condemnation from countries like Iran and Qatar, citing violations of Syrian sovereignty.
In addition to airstrikes, there are reports of Israeli ground operations, with tanks reportedly advancing close to Damascus. Israeli officials justify these actions as necessary measures to secure their borders and ensure regional stability.
For a visual perspective, here’s a video capturing the moment of the Israeli airstrike in Syria:

the gateway pundit – Judicial Watch Uncovers Key Documents and Photos on Chinese Covid Labs in California
Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch uncovered key documents and photos on Chinese Covid labs operating in California.
On March 3, an illegal bio lab was discovered in a believed-to-be vacant building in Reedley, California in Fresno County.
City code enforcement stumbled upon the building in December 2022 when they discovered a garden hose running up into the building through a hole in the wall. In March, they obtained a warrant to inspect the property, and in April, the Fresno County Department of Public Health ordered an inspection of the facility.
The company alleged to be running the lab, Prestige BioTech, is based out of Nevada and is the successor to Universal Meditech, Inc (UMI). In Dec. 2022, the FDA announced a recall over 56,000 “Skippack Medical Lab” Rapid Anti-Gen COVID-19 tests distributed by UMI to California and Texas.
Judicial Watch: Documents Reveal Photos, Conditions in Illegal California Medical Labs Owned by Chinese Company
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it received 29 pages of records through the California Public Records Act that confirm illicit labs owned by Chinese nationals housed biologicals in hazardous and non-compliant conditions, multiple infectious agents, and starving and dead mice. Judicial Watch investigators also uncovered court documents which detail the deplorable conditions at the lab (which conducted “COVID” research), including photos of dead mice.
The documents were produced by the Fresno County Department of Public Health (FCDPH) in response to a request for:
Records and / or communications maintained by the Fresno County Public Health Department, including emails, email chains, email attachments, text messages, meeting minutes, interviews, voice recordings, video recordings, photographs, correspondence, statements, letters, memoranda, reports, briefings, affidavits, inspections, presentations, notes, or other form of record, regarding Prestige BioTech and Universal Meditech Inc.
Prestige Biotech reportedly runs Universal Meditech, Inc.

3. Gatestone: Fresno Lab: China’s Operation to Exterminate Americans
- There were on site at least 20 potentially infectious pathogens including those causing coronavirus, HIV, hepatitis, and herpes.
- We know enough to be alarmed, however.
- The lab was supposed to be producing COVID-19 and pregnancy tests, but the facility contained items inconsistent with that explanation. The seizures at the lab strongly suggest China’s regime is preparing to spread disease in America, undoubtedly in the months before a war.
- In all probability, it is from locations like this one where China will “fire the first shot” in the next war.
- General Chi Haotian, when he was China’s defense minister two decades ago, reportedly gave a secret speech advocating the extermination of Americans with disease. His plan was to clear out the hills, plains, and valleys of North America so that the Chinese people could settle in the vast spaces left uninhabited.
- Since then, the mass murder of Americans has been a popular theme in Chinese society. The Communist Party, which tightly controls discourse in the People’s Republic of China, permits and even encourages incitement to kill Americans . “We are ahead of schedule in terms of overtaking the United States…. There will be no problem reaching this goal in 2027. The U.S. will not survive.” — LI Yi, prominent Chinese sociologist, October 2020.
- Americans now have to assume that China’s Communist Party is executing a plan to exterminate Americans.
- Will Americans, now warned, act to protect their society? After the discovery of the kamikaze lab near Fresno, they should act first and ask questions later.
- Americans now have to assume that China’s Communist Party is executing a plan to exterminate Americans.
Most important thing though, is to use up all the military fighting Russia trying to reclaim an area that voted to join it overwhelmingly, from another corrupt east-Euro despot. Yeah that’s the thing we need to really worry about
4. Gateway Pundit: China-linked Bio Lab Discovered in Fresno Co, California – Had Over 900 Mice “Genetically Engineered to Catch and Carry the Covid-19 Virus”
On March 3, an illegal bio lab was discovered in a believed-to-be vacant building in Reedley, California in Fresno County. City code enforcement stumbled upon the building in December 2022 when they discovered a garden hose running up into the building through a hole in the wall. In March, they obtained a warrant to inspect the property, and in April, the Fresno County Department of Public Health ordered an inspection of the facility.
Investigators inspected the building that contained the lab in July and found a room used to make COVID-19 tests and pregnancy tests. They also found over 35 freezers and refrigeration units that contained “thousands of bodily fluids, serums, tissues, and other medical items.”
According to the Mid Valley Times:
According to a declaration from Humero Prado, Assistant Director of Fresno County Public Health, which was filed in superior court, investigators discovered that one room of the warehouse was used to produce COVID-19 and pregnancy tests. In other rooms, investigators found blood, tissue and other bodily fluid samples. They also found thousands of vials that contained unlabeled fluids.
OF all the things the Chinese could learn from Japan, like having the most orderly low-population, technical and truth based cooperative culture in the world, they learned from Imperial Shinto Japan, that you can create a bioweapons lab in enemy territory and infect rodents and release them into the public. Maybe the most shameful part of all of Japanese history, that is what the Chinese learned to do and against us. I say us because the US is us, and if they have those labs in California, they have them in Canada. Make no mistake.
What was supposed to be an empty building used only for storage was home to a black-market type of lab testing facility.
YourCentralValley.com reports that the discovery was made after a local code enforcement officer noticed this garden hose poking out a back wall of the building. Public Health staff also observed blood, tissue and other bodily fluid samples and serums; and THOUSANDS of vials of unlabeled fluids and suspected biological material.
(By the way, if this site is offline a lot over the next days, it is because China probably acts against the server because of this post. I know if you can’t see the site, you can’t see this explanation, but when you can, you can.)

Thank you SC for the analysis.
UPDATE: There has been quite a bit of reaction to this item on Twitter. One of the respondents is Dan Kaszeta, who wrote a book on nerve agents. He is adamant that this material is not mustard gas, but is likely Chlorine Gas. That photos of Mustard Gas are rare, and then only black and white. This stands to reason, although I personally would have assumed that it was still made somewhere and modern photos of it would exist from tests or whatever purpose it may still be in use for. For example, India still makes DDT.
Mr. Kaszeta also adds the following:
Thank you Mr. Kaszeta for making the effort to correct this record.
First. check out this video of today’s event in Aqaba. Skip to 35 seconds
Then check these images from Google of what Mustard gas looks like
Ten people were killed and more than 200 injured Monday in a toxic gas explosion in Jordan’s Aqaba port, authorities said. Footage on state TV showed a large cylinder plunging from a crane on a moored vessel, causing a violent release of a yellow gas.
The force of the blast sent a truck rolling down the harbourside, while port workers could be seen running for their lives. Nearby areas were evacuated and residents told to stay indoors.
The death toll rose to 10, government spokesman Faisal al-Shaboul told AFP, revising an initial toll of five killed. Prime Minister Bishr Khasawneh and interior minister Mazen al-Faraya headed to the site of the accident, state media reported. Civil defence spokesman Amer al-Sartawy earlier reported that 234 people were injured after the tank filled with toxic gas fell.
“Specialists and the hazardous substances team in the civil defence are dealing” with the incident, Sartawy added.
Leaked documents give new information about the Pentagon program in biolaboratories in Ukraine. According to internal documents, Pentagon contractors were given full access to all Ukrainian biolaboratories while independent experts were denied even a visit. The new revelations challenge the US government statement that the Pentagon just funded biolaboratories in Ukraine but had nothing to do with them.
Last week US Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland confirmed that “Ukraine has biological research facilities” and the US is worried that “those research materials” may fall into the Russian hands. What “research materials” were studied in these biolaboratories and why are US officials so worried that they may fall into Russian hands?
The Pentagon activities in Ukrainian biolabs were funded by the Defense Threat Reduction agency (DTRA). DTRA allocated $80 million for biological research in Ukraine as of 30 July 2020, according to information obtained from the US Federal contracts registry. The US company Black & Veatch Special Projects Corp. was tasked with the program.
