Big Events:
July week 1, 2026: Israel–out of control–aided, abetted, enabled by the United States Government–is attacking Gaza, West Bank, Lebanon, and Iran non-stop, with smaller violent incursions in Yemen and Iraq. Reports of Israeli atrocities flowing thick and fast. Now Israel is threatening Turkey which has the largest land army in the region.
July 3-9, 2026: Largest funeral in human history held for Ayatollah Khamenei. All told, over 40 million mourners with dignitaries sent by over 100 countries around the world, including China, India, Russia, Pakistan, and Western countries and US allies. World response should be understood as a message to the US and Israel that the game has changed and the world supports Iran against them.
July 8, 2026: At NATO Summit in Turkey Donald Trump calls Iranian leaders, “cancer” “cheats” “cuckoo” “evil” “liars” “scum” “vicious” “violent” people. (in short, he called them all the names people around the world call Trump). Reported in Fortune magazine which pointed out that last month Trump was calling Iranians “very rational people” “nice to deal with”.
18 August, 2026: 8 Muslim nations representing about 820 million people issue statement condemning Israeli rejection of peace plan. (See Israel section below).
Loss of Narrative in America:
With gas and food prices climbing because of America’s war against Iran on behalf of Israel, and increasing predictions of catastrophic economic depression, and US Strategic Petroleum reserve due to bottom out in two weeks (recall that on March 18, 2026–when he thought the Iran war would end in days with US/Israel victory– Trump boasted to Americans the US had a 120 day oil reserve), Americans are beginning to wake up to the fact we are in trouble and a lot of it is because of Israel.
July: Iran is using Chinese BeiDou satellite system. Last year in 12-day war, they relied on US GPS positioning which the US/Israel hacked into and misguide missiles. With BeiDou system Iran doesn’t have that problem and the system is more accurate.
July 01, 2026: Israel leases stolen Palestinian land in Jerusalem for 99 years to the United States for symbolic $1 so the US can build an embassy there. Symbolic waste of another American dollar. Israel unlikely to last 5 years much less 99.
July 11, 2026: Israeli-first war mongering Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) dies unexpectedly at 71. Shock to Israel and the Zionist Lobby in America. Many of us in America shudder to think what dirt Israel had on Graham. He always denied being gay but was widely called out as such by the gay community.
July 12, 2026: Americans amazed to learn that Israel, which dragged Trump into war with Iran, and fanned the flames of war across the region, is now sitting on the sidelines claiming it’s Trump’s war not Israel’s.
July 13, 2026: Trump announces to Congress he is going back to war with Iran. US bombing Iran. [totally unconstitutional abuse of Executive power]. After months of saying there can be no tolls on ships transiting Strait of Hormuz, Donald Trump now says US will control Strait of Hormuz and charge tolls on ships passing through to pay for US war with Iran.
Reports flooding in by experts both foreign and domestic reveal that US is now critically low on munitions, especially interceptors, that have been siphoned off from US military commands around the world to protect Israel,
18 July, 2026: US State Department advises Americans worldwide to exercise increased caution due to Middle East War.
19 July, 2026: Trump polls at historic low <35% support, >60% against. After Spain won World Cup over Argentina (1-0) in New Jersey, Trump tried to make it all about himself by walking out onto the field with his security detail to get photos. Crowd erupted with ‘boo’, giving him the finger, and holding up red cards.
19 July, 2026: 16 US service members killed and >430 wounded since February, 2026. Cent Com accused of low-balling the actual number of US killed and wounded.
20 July, 2026: Trump is escalating the war with Iran on behalf of Netanyahu and Israel. For Netanyahu can cancel Israel’s elections if war with Iran escalates. Trump increasingly helpless. Every option he has is a bad one. [Alastair Crooke says Trump cannot find a way down from the tree that he has climbed.]
27 July, 2026: Trump’s unqualified crony Mike Waltz, who is serving as UN Ambassador, claims reports of America being dangerously low on munitions, and particularly missile interceptors due to Trumps war on Iran are: 1) ‘fake news’, 2) shortages are Biden’s fault. 3) it’s illegal to discuss. Waltz went on to say, “…the people leaking this nonsense deserve to be in jail.” This is rich coming from Waltz who, last year, leaked US plans for attacking Yemen by including Jeffery Goldberg, editor of the Atlantic, [and former prison guard for the Israeli military] on an unsecure group chat.
August 2026: US Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent, an oily character himself, claims that oil tankers are turning off their transponders and brought 20 million barrels of oil through the ‘American Corridor’. This is absurd as the Strait is 13 miles across and Iran could follow a paddle boarder anywhere out there.
August 2026: Weapons depletion updates from Chas Freeman and/or Larry C Johnson: [We’re in trouble]. As much as 90% of US precision weaponry and 70%-80%pf anti-missile capability (which don’t work anyway) have been squandered away. Iran has shot down 45 MQ9 Reaper Drones at $60 million each. Defense Department has ordered four MQ 4 C Triton Drones at $250 million each. Iran has already shot one of those down. In 2023 US Government gave General Dynamics a contract to make artillery shells. GD built a factory outside Dallas, Tx. Never produced a sing shell and now they’ve cancelled the contract.
15 August, 2026: Journalist Rick Sanchez, who has worked for CNN, NBC, and Fox News said what everyone paying attention knows, “In all of those places if I was to say something that was positive toward Iran or antagonistic to Israel, you’re done. You’re finished. And not only that, they will make sure y9u don’t work again, anywhere in the US media.”
August 2026, week 3: Aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln Scandal: The Lincoln has been at sea for over 250 days–a record no sailor would want to set. Americans, especially navy families, increasingly angry over not just the long deployment, but for logistics and command failures including poor food, lack of basics like toiletries, poor morale, fights, multiple attempted suicides, all over a war for Israel. Supply problems due in part to Iran driving the US out of every base in the region where the US used to resupply. The other problem is the US was unprepared for a long war. Americans increasingly angry that Israel is sitting on the sidelines not participating. This war is affecting US navy world wide. Other ships in the Gulf region are having the same problems. Now, the Navy is sending the USS George Washington from the Pacific to relieve the Lincoln which weakens the Navy in the Pacific. Trump, asked about the Lincoln’s plight, dismissed the issues and said 250 days at sea was, “not nearly long enough”.
August 2026 week 3: Per Larry C Johnson: Explanation of the logistics failure of US navy: The USS Abraham Lincoln is showcasing navy-wide problems. 3 types of ships deliver supplies to ships at sea. The three types comprise the Combined Logistics Fleet (CLF). Type 1) delivers Ammunition and Fuel, Type 2) delivers Ammo, Fuel, Food. Type 3) Faster ships deliver goods. The US used to have four of these fast ships until 10 years ago when the number was cut to two. Meaning, the Persian Gulf bases where the CLF used to pick up supplies have been destroyed and, when CLF is able to get supplies there are fewer ships to carry those supplies to the fleet.
Loss of Narrative in Arab Gulf States:
July week 1, 2026:Nearly all countries in the Middle East now aligned against Israel. The few holdouts, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, which didn’t send official delegations to Ayatollah’s funeral, are still hoping for handouts from the United States . That door is closing.
13 June, 2026: US announces it is closing its embassy in Abu Dhabi, UAE and its consulate in Dubai. They’re no longer tenable.
August: 2026: Every country in the Persian Gulf is looking towards a post American future since America can’t protect them and America is being driven out of the region. To be an American allay is to invite attack. (America can’t protect Israel or itself either as far as that goes).
17 August, 2026: Oman is working out a plan for management of the Strait of Hormuz with Iran. Donald Trump threatens, “If Oman gets in our way, we’ll bomb the shit out of them!” Oman has been an allay of the US for years.
Loss of Narrative in Asia:
13 July, 2026: Iranian Parliament opened after Ayatollah’s funeral. Two main items on the agenda are Strait of Hormuz control, and dropping restraint of Hezbollah so they’ll be free to retaliate on Israel.
16 August, 2026: Eight Muslim nations representing a roughly 820 million people issue a joint statement condemning Israel’s rejection of Trump’s Board of Peace plan to end hostilities in Gaza. The plan was endorsed by UN Security resolution 2803. The nations also condemned Israeli rejection of Palestinian statehood. The eight countries, with populations (in millions) are Indonesia (288), Pakistan (260), Egypt (120.5), Turkiye (88), Saudi Arabia (35), Jordan (11.5), UAE (11.5), Qatar (3.2).
Loss of Narrative in Israel:
July week 1, 2026: Israeli fanatics and MAGA (what’s left of it) cheerleader Laura Loomer are calling on Israel to bomb the Ayatollah’s funeral. Netanyahu knows that would result in Iran turning Israel into a parking lot, so Israel has backed down. To compensate the blood lust Israel continues bombing Gaza, West Bank, Lebanon but keeps away from Iran.
July 4, 2026: Much hated Israeli Security Minister Itmar Ben Gvir , for the second time, cancels scheduled trip to the United States [this time was for a United Nations Police Summit, no less] after the Hind Rajab Foundation, the Center for Constitutional Rights filed complaints with the Department of Justice and NY Attorney’s office calling for an investigation into Ben Gvir’s crimes. There’s also an excellent chance of rioting if he shows up in the US.
20 July, 2026: Geopolitical analyst Alastair Crooke says Israel on the brink of civil war. None of Netanyahu’s promises have materialized. Israeli elections are in October. Netanyahu is very unpopular and will probably be voted out. Should that happen, he will no longer have immunity from his corruption trial and will likely go to jail. His cronies on the Israeli Likud Supreme Court say if there’s an escalation with Iran, Netanyahu can cancel the election. Instead of public primaries, Netanyahu will appointing all candidates.
August: Emigration of Israel’s best and brightest continues with people leaving the country faster than people are moving there.
15 August, 2026: Netanyahu has been pressuring Israeli intelligence to back dishonest claims he and former Mossad head David Barnea lied to Trump before June 13, 2025 about Iran getting nuclear weapons and Israeli military intelligence said possibility of US getting nuclear material out of Iran was low and Iran wasn’t out to produce a nuclear weapon anyway. Netanyahu has thrown Barnea under the bus and fired him.
16 August, 2026: Netanyahu’s campaign put up a billboard with picture of NY City Mayor Zohran Mamdani next to leaders of Iran and Hezbollah with the slogan: The Want Netanyahu to Lose”.
16 August, 2026: Unqualified, unrespected, Zionist Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner, posing as a diplomat again, meets with Hamas diplomats at El Alamein, Egypt. At the meeting were Egyptian, Turkish, and Qatari mediators and Trump’s ‘Board of Peace Director Nickolay Mladenov and Tony Blair. US negotiations with Hamas was something Netanyahu has tried to prevent for years because it’s an admission by the US that Hamas is an undefeated political force in the region and must be included diplomatically.
**Side notes on Kushner family, Trump, Netanyahu:
*When Jared Kushner lived with his parents as a youngster, Netanyahyu stayed at the Kushner’s home and was given Jared’s bedroom to sleep in.
*Jared Kushner’s father Charles is a convicted felon (illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, witness tampering).
*Jared Kushner married Trump’s daughter in 2009.
*Trump pardoned Charles Kushner in December, 2020, weeks before the end of his first term.
*Trump made Charles Kushner America’s ambassador to France and Monaco in 2025. Rumor has it that the French want him declared personna non grata.
17 August, 2026: After meeting with Hamas, Jared Kushner immediately flies to Israel to fill in Netanyahu and plot strategy. Probably including a green light to continue Gaza Genocide.
Loss of Narrative Worldwide:
02 July, 2026: New York Times reports that the United States government warned Iran earlier this year that Israel was plotting to kill Iran’s top negotiators during peace talks. Story goes global.
13 July, 2026: As respect and support for America collapses, Marco Rubio announces US will “tear down the International Criminal Court brick by brick. [ICC has arrest warrants out for Benjamin Netanyahu. Rubio threatens to sanction countries around the world who abide by international law and support the ICC. [This could be Rubio’s last hurrah before Trump throws him under the bus].
19 July, 2026: After Trump starts bombing Iran again, price of crude oil goes up 20% in a few days.
16 August, 2026: Israel’s fanatic ‘Security Minister’ Itmar Ben-Gvir calls for murdering 30 to 40 people per night in Gaza saying, “Not just those who pose an immediate threat. These are people who are not worthy of life. They shouldn’t live. They’re not even people.” Israelis can’t understand why the world finds them repulsive.
17 August, 2026: Trump still making crazy statements that the United States controls the Strait of Hormuz when everyone in the world knows Iran is firmly in control.
17 August, 2026: World needing oil waits for what will happen after today ends the 60-day period of Iran/US MOU which Iran has complied with and which Israel and US have violated from the get-go. Now Iran has the option of charging fees for ships in Strait of Hormuz, which it has been charging some ships as the MOU has floundered and Iran will be blocking shipping for US and Israel until they live up to the MOU Trump signed.
