Spain says “unjust war”

Spain closes airspace to US military over Iran war, widening rift with US

Spain’s defence minister confirms move and describes US-Israel war on Iran as ‘profoundly illegal and unjust’.

Commentary: I think this is an unjust war. There was no reason to begin bombing another country. Israel and the US are both working together to steal a country’s resources! If you bomb infrastructure, it is the same as stealing money right from the country’s treasury. It is very similar. Any economist (or engineer) knows that infrastructure is terribly expensive for a country. Destroying it, well, why? That is theft. It is armed robbery from the people.

it is aggression, it is armed robbery, it is murder.

if someone destroys all your money, that is robbery.

if someone destroys your home and you, it is murder and robbery.

All other words are doublespeak lies. This is America, land of over 50 states, California, Arkansas, others. Israel is not one of the United States!!

WE WILL NOT PARTNER WITH ISRAEL!! No partnership in murder and robbery.

The US wants refined uranium that IRAN made, the MOST EXPENSIVE substances on Earth. Oh, and we will destroy that uranium? Not likely. Why can we not trust a country to make Uranium for nuclear power? Because someone does not want IRAN to succeed as a country. That is it, plain and simple. The US stance to “take the Uranium” is simple armed robbery. Nothing more.

PROTEST, RESIST, WRITE YOUR USA congressional representatives.

Read this on CNN today, May 25 2026.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is preparing to expand its operations in Lebanon in the near future, an Israeli source told CNN on Monday, saying the moves are being “coordinated with the United States.”

COMMENTARY: My take on this? The idea is the constant voice of the good versus evil will eventually make all believe that Israel and US are good, all other are evil. The moves are coordinated with the United States? Bullshit!! The narrative?

We can win! Together, we will rule all! I don’t see exactly the reason why we have been so close and cozy with Israel, but we definitely share the same bed, we caress each other and whisper sweet things at night. Love is in the air! ❤️
“Oh, the partner (Israel child killers) did that, we talked!” says the lovely partner, the United States.
“For certain, we will win with Israel. The terrorists must stop! Together we make the world better with destruction!” says the bedtime partner, the United States. 😘
The collusion of war time actions are sick and depraved. Blaming another country for your murder of others? Disgusting.
“Don’t only blame us for killing the children and making new orphans in Beirut, we talked with the United States! Blame the US too!” Says Israel.

My opinion, I am 100% against Israel, and the United States should never partner with Israel on anything, ever. Written because I still have freedom of speech, in the United States of America.

Pesticides role in crop production?

I am learning some of the true role of pesticides in crop production. The thing that I learned is what? I learned that pesticides use is not just about keeping pests off the leaves of your plants. Some farmers, like me, believed that. Just as important, perhaps more important, is the role pesticides play in killing invertebrates in the soil. The myth is that these bugs like earthworms are needed for crop production. It is a half-truth.

Continued pesticide use will get pesticides into the soil. Killing white grubs, which are the larval stage of beetles, will impact crop production. We knew this in 1948, see this patent on pesticide use in the soil: US2596929A – Plant growth improvement – Google Patents

In the Ethylene Bromide patent, details show how the pesticide reduces white grubs and other plant damaging insects, with the result being much stronger plants.

Is there alternatives to keep soil productive, without pesticides? Can you have strong plants, without pesticides (poisons) like Ethylene Bromide? I have experience farming, and my answer is yes. I also understand that it may take a good amount of effort to monitor your soil for pests and keep it productive for your plants. My experience is with grapes, and it takes a good amount of work to make sure the soil is the condition the grapes need. I am sure there are ways to limit pests like the white grub using natural soil conditioners. The easier solution for some farmers would be applying the pesticides.

If you buy organic produce this may not concern you. It is incredible difficult task to only eat organic produce, so I assume that 99% of the population does eat some produce made with pesticides. It’s important to know what effect pesticides have on crop output. It is not trivial, the amount of time and money saved by the farmer in using pesticides. Meaning the amount of crop yield is significant, it could be much lower without pesticides. This does not mean that I as a farmer agree with pesticide use in all of our crops. I don’t believe in chemical use in every farm. There is significant risk of other natural ecosystems that exist in the farm and nearby the farm. I am just putting out a fact regarding output of a crop.

In researching this, I found that one concern with USA pesticides use is the single qualification factor. There is only one factor, or hurdle, that pesticide approval needs, which is, at present, only the European honeybee. The EPA assesses risk to all soil organisms using the European honey bee as a surrogate species. This is ridiculous simple way of identifying the lethality of a pesticide to the environment. This is something the USA needs to improve.

freedom of speech

I remember a discussion with someone how good freedom of speech is. So good in America. So good, this free speech. And it is true; we all need free speech.

My concern is that this is becoming unequal, and leaders have more freedom of speech.

Let’s look at something a leader in the USA said. During his prime-time address to the nation, Trump said, referring to Iran: “We are going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks, we’re going to bring them back to the stone ages, where they belong.”

So we all have the freedom of speech to say we are going to kill people and blow up people? Often this will get a person under investigation. Your security clearance will be revoked. You might get a visit from a detective. This is true. Things in 2026 the year of the war mongers, it appears that freedom of speech is not free for everyone. It is becoming clear that certain people think they have more freedom than we have, that they are above the law, above any regulations, in fact, they believe they are kings, dictators. This is not freedom of speech for all; this is freedom for the few.

civil war

Friday, April 3rd 2026, a soldier is missin in Iran. It was cbs news, reporting non sense and racism again. Facism and evil propaganda, not news. The white man, a strategy analyst gives comments on the situation.
HE said ” iranians are hostage takers by their very nature”.

That is pure hate and bigotry. IT’S ALSO a fact sir, THAT A PRISONER OF WAR IS NOT A HOSTAGE. its like the media once you to believe we really didn’t bomb and kill people, and even if we did, we still have the rights, we have more rights than those people in Iran.. We have the right to do that to kill and destroy. Yet the other people don’t have rights, oh they cant even have wars. Well, Iyou may know Iran showed a few people that they can fight wars, and that they will fight back. We have a few dead soldiers to show that that’s the case. Dead in israel is piling up also, THE power propaganda, cbs says it. THAT IS TRYING TO CONVINCE YOU TO HATE A COUNTRY. IS ALSO HIDING THE FACT THAT iran is CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO ISRAEL. Israel is not part of the united states.They will never be part of the united states.And if they are ever part of the united states, I will not be part of the united states. want you, want wars? Guess what? We might just have a civil war in this country. Fight for slaves we did, fight for justice. We might just do it again, and have another civil war in the united states. I won’t hesitate to fight for justice.

Israel should never be part of any military operations with he united states, ever.

Cbs news wants you to believe that in an entire country called iran needs no mercy. And has no human rights. C b s news wants you to believe that the country called iran, it’s so insignificant that they can’t even have war. Well, the dead bodies make that show that that’s not the case. Iran will fight just like any other country if attacked, they will, they wont hesitate to fight.

The message is believe that those people are inferior and believe that they should accept war and destruction and subjugation from the upper class.

i won’t watch cbs news.

the 2026 war on reason

in 2026 re waged war i’m on a country, this is called the war without reason, the war on reason. Not ww3, this is wwr-wor. Wwr-wor, that stands for the war without reason. And the war, on reason. This is the first large, modern. massive war, without a reason. We’ve had wars of that reason before, but this is the first time. The first time, the government, the media, the ones in power, are convincing you that there is some reason. Usually, these reasons have to do with stereotypes like brown people are just bad people. Or brown people or middle eastern people, just like to take hostages. The common sense there is no common sense on why this is a war, so they have to make up excuses. This is truly a war on reason. They want to have a war on reason. .So that there are no limits to what killing and destruction can happen. They want the war on reason so that they never have to make up reasons. If everyone believes that people, some people are better than others than guess. What do you really don’t need to make up reasons. Is a war on reason? Yes!! It is a war on reason.

We are bombed with messages from the media that it is unpatriotic not to support the troops. We are bombed with complete nonsense, like, these people are evil by nature. B

and this just this is mainstream media?This is c b s news telling us that these people by nature are hostage takers. In a subtle way, we are bombarded, but with messages that the people in iran are bad. Just as Israel and the United States continue to bomb Iran. The government and media continued to bomb us with complete nonsense. We are bombed by idiotic sayings and discussions that are so biased, absurd, not even funny.

i really like the united states, but this is the truly the first time i’ve truly felt, did.The united states is not something that represents what I believe as a person. I don’t believe that we should go bomb other countries because of the color of their skin or because they want to have some type of energy source that everyone else has (nuclear energy). And again, the media fear mongers, the media feed this stuff and feeds it to everyone thinking these people in iran are just evil. I so no. .I did not grow up in the united states thinking everyone else is evil.

the media is getting to a point where they want us to all believe that every one accept people in the united states are of lower class people. Lower class. The thought process is that this population group, this whole country is of lower class and does not have the rights.It does not even have the rights to wage war. This is what CBS News is telling you CBS. News is telling you that they cannot take hostages during war. You don’t take hostages during war, that’s called prisoners of war. CBS News wants you to believe that this really isn’t even war, that this is just action.

JUST an action, s is just an normal process of the united states making things correct in the world. And we can make those corrections with bombs, missiles and guns. that they should be bombed to the stone age.As the president said:

uring his prime-time address to the nation, Trump said, referring to Iran: “We are going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks, we’re going to bring them back to the stone ages, where they belong.”

COMMENTARY: I think the US President, saying that quote about destroying a country, putting them into the stone age, should give a good case for removing the president, as he is not a moral person. And also he should have his security clearance immediately revoked.

chip detector, metal

Chip detector | Aerospace | Eaton

 better way to detect metal particles. I see and read about it. I read about engines that use these, aircraft engines. Sometimes good, other times not so good. Chip warnings ignored and fatal outcomes. Anyone have experience with these?
I had an idea.
I read some ideas.
I want to improve.

This is a patent for metal chip detector (by Pratt and Whitney) US10705038B2 – Systems and methods for detecting chips in fluid of aircraft engine – Google Patents



Notice the “chip size” object pointing to the indicator? In the drawing above. The improvement needs to be “chip mass” which is the mass of all the chips in the fluid or transmission. I have not seen how even chip size is reliably measured.

Is there another way? Of course! Not taking credit for this, just something I found. The idea that I read about used radioactive marking on the metal gears, and when the oil becomes radioactive, you know the gears are wearing fast. Great idea, perhaps not widely used because of radioactive fears.

major disaster

I have been watching disaster documentary recently, and I have increased my household food supplies. Fear has gotten the best of me, and I just want to be prepared. My worst-case scenario is a major regional disaster. In a regional disaster (think Hurricane Katrina or larger) you will have no telecom, little electricity, and little to no heat or air conditioning.

Watching the disaster videos, people often will become desperate and commit crimes. For your household, often you want to basically be able to survive with some food and water. And number 2, you want to be able to scare away criminals looting for food.

All business, including hospitals, fire and police, will be affected. Your staff, the ones that decided to come to work instead of defending the home, are hungry and haven’t had a hot shower in a week. No one is happy. These things can happen.

Public safety and hospitals have become very reliant on electronic systems. These organizations need to practice what happens if the internet is down and all their systems are down. What do they do? How does the hospital work? Hospitals need to prepare for these disasters!!!

Hospitals rely on the Electronic Health Record. Although no one wants to discuss the features of paper charting, the fact is, in a regional disaster, you better be good at paper charting and managing patients, in some way. You will have to do it, without the sacred, all knowing, ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD.

margin of safety

The psychological margin of safety, perhaps call it PMOS. This way it comes as a safety margin, not a safe thing. Say you hear this:


“Hey your team is lacking in the progress report. The team, maybe it needs to increase its psychological margin of safety, so that more people will comment on each project.”


This is a better way. PMOS = Psychological Margin of Safety. Because we all know, safety is something we want to improve. Safety, it’s just a moving line, a margin record of how bad we did this year compared to last year. Phycological safety really does not exist. You can see it? Rarely, you might find it being tried to be done in some organizations, struggling to get people to talk about problems.

Can you fight this? Not really. People want security and so they do not want to bring up problems. You can only improve or make it worse. You can not fix it. My opinion. There is some hope, see my answers 😀 below!!

You can pay people for innovation. I know of a contractor organization, down the hall, I could hear them talk about innovation awards. This caught my attention and I had to discuss it with them, and yes, it was true, they paid people to innovate. Great idea, pay for innovation!
😀 Answer: Those innovations can solve problems. Create a new process to kill the problem process, and you may never have to discuss the problem.

Where is their no PMOS? The worst example of this is military organizations, pick any country, go to their military projects. What do you see in those failing projects or those projects that are completely useless? You will see PMOS levels undetectable. No margin of safety can be seen regarding speaking up. No one will dare speak up or discuss the problems. Sometimes, they only discuss the options. The peer pressure in military ordered organization is incredible and creates high risk. Yet there is a way! Discussing options, this is convenient way to hide the fact that we need to speak up about problems.
😀 Answer: Discussing options does work in some scenarios. I led a group to discuss options about various technologies, without focusing on the difficult problems some of those technologies inherited.
