Gamblers trying to win a bet on Polymarket are vowing to kill me if I don’t rewrite an Iran missile story

“…Polymarket is one of the largest prediction markets in the world, where users can wager their money on the likelihood of future events, using cryptocurrency, debit or credit cards, and bank transfers. However, there are accusations that the site has been plagued by manipulation and insider trading.

The event that these people had bet on was “Iran strikes Israel on…?” More than 14 million dollars had been wagered on March 10.

The rules of the bet state: “This market will resolve to ‘Yes’ if Iran initiates a drone, missile, or air strike on Israel’s soil on the listed date in Israel Time (GMT+2). Otherwise, this market will resolve to ‘No’.”

However, there is a clause: “Missiles or drones that are intercepted… will not be sufficient for a ‘Yes’ resolution, regardless of whether they land on Israeli territory or cause damage.”

My minor report on a missile striking an open area was now in the middle of a betting war, with those who had bet “No” on an Iranian strike on Israel on March 10 demanding I change my article to ensure they would win big…”

Shin Bet chief’s brother, 4 others released to house arrest in Gaza smuggling case

“…Zini, an IDF reservist who headed logistics for forces doing demolition work in Gaza, is suspected of abusing his access to the enclave to smuggle 14 crates of cigarettes from Israel into Gaza on three occasions, earning a total of NIS 365,000 ($117,405). He was indicted in February alongside two others, including a fellow reservist, on charges of assisting the enemy during wartime, fraud and bribery.

A day prior to Zini’s indictment, 12 others, allegedly part of the same larger smuggling network, were charged after allegedly trafficking goods into Gaza on 15 separate occasions…”

Epstein was ‘intelligence asset’ and Clintons were victims, claims Rep. Luna

“…Though other members did not echo Luna’s allegation, it follows revelatory findings within the public tranche of Justice Department documents on Epstein that detail his connections with members of the global elite, including members of Israel’s overseas intelligence arms and a former Russian official with links to Moscow’s FSB intelligence services.

The source further claimed Epstein was “trained as a spy” for the agency, and that Epstein maintained connections with U.S. and other allied intelligence circles through his longtime lawyer Alan Dershowitz, Al Jazeera reported. Dershowitz’s own network included many students at Harvard University’s law school, where he taught, such as President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and now foreign envoy Jared Kushner and his brother, Josh Kushner, the source added.

(…)

In 2015, Epstein also worked with Sergei Belyakov, a former deputy minister of economic development with links to Moscow’s Federal Security Service — the main successor agency of the Soviet Union’s KGB —to collective information on a woman who Epstein claimed was attempting to blackmail a group of “powerful” New York associates, the Justice Department files show…”

The ancient prophecy behind the Iran war is a modern invention — Religious leaders warn that apocalyptic beliefs might outweigh the nuclear taboo

“…Lynn Gottlieb, a Rabbi in the Jewish renewal movement, also pointed out that, in her assessment, many of these eschatological beliefs have an anti-semitic core to them, which sees Jews as a tool for the realization of end times prophecy.

“What is scary now to me — and I think to many Jewish people — is the fact that the State of Israel is in partnership with people who hold these beliefs. And when you’re in partnership with people who hold such profoundly anti-semitic ideas, that Jews serve no other purpose than to be an instrument of the Apocalypse and the reestablishment of the Christian kingdom in the Holy Land, there is no intrinsic value that is placed on the Jewish tradition or people as worthy of its own expression,” Gottlieb said. “Israel is exploiting this theology for its own purposes and the partnership between Christian Zionism and Jewish Zionism has resulted in the genocide of the Palestinian people and the killing of people as part of the project of conquest that’s being exported to Lebanon and Iran in this moment.”

(…)

“There is no doubt in my mind that if Iran continues to resist U.S. imperialism, Israel or the United States will go nuclear,” Gottlieb said. “This has to be said because this isn’t just a conversation about ideas. This is a conversation about when ideas like this impact the policy of people who hold the most deadly weapons and have no limit. We could be looking at the reintroduction of nuclear weapons as part of this war. People should be very frightened, because apocalyptic thinking has no problem using nuclear weapons.”…”

It’s Time to Cut Ties With the Anti-Defamation League

“…No longer putting on the pretense of opposing all forms of bigotry, the ADL has shown it’s perfectly comfortable with Trump-era racism. In the year since the last summit, the ADL has withdrawn its criticism of white supremacist groups, denounced antiracist education as “radical,” continued to loudly back Israel’s genocide in Gaza, and cheered on Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportations of students and other noncitizens who have criticized Israel’s violence and stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people. In fact, the ADL endorsed the executive order issued by President Donald Trump in 2025 targeting critics of Israel and threatening those who aren’t US citizens with deportation for protesting in support of Palestinian human rights…”

Mysterious Deaths of China’s Tech and Quantum Visionaries

“…China has been rocked by the mysterious deaths of several of its top scientists and engineers in recent years, leaving the nation grappling with questions of safety and security. While official reports attribute these deaths to accidental causes or natural occurrences, the untimely loss of these key figures, many of whom were involved in critical areas like national security and technological advancement, has sparked concerns about the protection of China’s intellectual assets.

The sudden departure of these visionaries has cast a shadow of doubt over the circumstances surrounding their deaths, leading to widespread speculation and public discourse. Despite the lack of concrete evidence linking these incidents to national security investigations, the unsettling trend has left many questioning the safety and well-being of China’s brightest minds.

Last October, the Ministry of State Security took a unique approach to shed light on the challenges faced by scientific professionals in a rapidly evolving international landscape. Through the launch of a TV drama series titled “The Dark Tide is Raging,” the government aimed to highlight the potential risks encountered by individuals working in sensitive sectors, emphasizing the need for vigilance and caution in safeguarding national interests…”

Epstein Guard Called To Testify As Oversight Committee Explores Potential MURDER

“…House Oversight Chairman James Comer is ramping up the heat on the botched handling of Jeffrey Epstein’s custody, announcing a subpoena for prison guard Tova Noel amid bombshell revelations of suspicious cash deposits and online searches just before the disgraced elitist’s alleged suicide.

With fresh DOJ documents unearthing red flags that scream cover-up, Comer’s move signals a long-overdue push for transparency against the bureaucratic stonewalling that has shielded powerful figures tied to Epstein’s web of abuse.

(…)

Chase Bank flagged suspicious deposits into Noel’s account, including $5,000 on July 30, 2019—ten days before Epstein’s death. From December 2018, seven deposits totaled $11,880, coinciding with her assignment to Epstein’s unit. Yet DOJ investigators never questioned her about it.

An FBI briefing identified Noel as an “orange flash” on camera approaching Epstein’s cell at 10:40 p.m. the night before, carrying linens or clothing—the last approach to the tier. She denied it…”
