Pope Leo XIV has once again spoken out strongly against the wars in the world. "The world is being destroyed by a handful of tyrants," the Pope said during his visit to Cameroon. A heated public conflict is currently raging between President Donald Trump and Pope Leo XIV (the first American pope, who took office in May 2025). On the part of Trump or his so-called administration, there is no respect for Catholics; naturally, he and his so-called government members are Christian Zionists who recognize neither a pope nor Protestantism. But the worse part is they have no respect for religion or human life..

Tensions reached a boiling point in April 2026 following fierce criticism from both sides regarding American foreign policy and warfare. Foreign Policy: The Pope condemns the "delusion of omnipotence" among world leaders and the war in the Middle East.

Immigration: Since his accession, the Pope has repeatedly criticized Trump's strict immigration policy, which he labels as inhumane.

Ideology: Trump accuses the Pope of pandering to the "radical left," while the Pope emphasizes that he is not a politician but continues to speak out against violence from a moral standpoint. Of course, much of it is theatre and propaganda from Trump and his partners in crime who represent the current American administration.

In my humble opinion, the entire war with Iran has become a kind of theatre, just like Lebanon and, of course, Gaza. Theater on the part of the Americans and the current reporting in all media. I do not understand why they still take Trump's words literally regarding peace or talks. It is a bad AI show that sows confusion, and through that confusion, they are playing with human lives. But ordinary human lives do not count for the current elites, however deeply sad and tragic this is...
A guy, an amateur President Zelensky, who plucks his own people (men) off the streets to fight (violent kidnappings on the street), gets the Dutch Freedom Award and King Pils named Willem Alexander of the Netherlands stands by laughing and gives him a prize. The elites have become totally amoral and criminal.. He gets it together with a French woman who allowed herself to be abused for years by her husband and various men.. What more do I have to say about this? Totally insane, the Netherlands is totally broken, the elite need sorry my words to piss off..

Air surveillance posts of the Vostok Group of Forces foil AFU drone attacks against assault units positions in Zaporozhye region.

'We have teams that have destroyed more than 50 fixed-wing targets in three days. In general, targets are different like fixed-wing UAVs, such as Leleka, Furiya, and Baba-Yaga unmanned aerial vehicles as well as small targets like Mavic drones. We engage everything,' a UAV unit commander with the call sign 'Shelyak' said.
Much hype news about the so-called ceasefire with Israel and Hezbollah (Lebanon), about which the orange-psychotic man in the US (Trump) now claims he has resolved 9 wars. Of course, there is no ceasefire; Israel has bombed southern Lebanon again, and Hezbollah has issued a statement saying it will not return to the south just yet. After all, that ceasefire is supposedly only for two weeks, and there is no peace agreement, which is not possible given the circumstances. It is a ceasefire with the puppets of the US – Aoun and his supporters – but not with Hezbollah, the Maronites (Christian), and the Amal party (moderate Shiites). But even supporters of the former assassinated Rafik Hariri (mainly Sunni) do not believe in it. Lebanon, like many countries in the world, needs a different system and, of course, to shake off the domination of the US and the fascists in Israel. Difficult, very difficult...meanwhile people suffer especially children..
How it started👇
A reminder of how it really began and how far removed Western media and politics are from the truth. In 2014, Dutch newspapers (images preserved by me) reported that the Ukrainian army was committing crimes against its own Russian-speaking population in the Donbass, and an article in a Dutch newspaper called "Het Algemeen Dagblad" literally stated that "the Aidar Regiment was committing atrocities against the population," citing a report by Amnesty International.

Or as another Dutch mainstream newspaper "de Volkskrant" wrote: "The inhabitants of Luhansk are being shelled by the Ukrainian army". That is how far removed they are from the truth about what was really at stake in the Donbass, and how we are now witnessing a conflict that has been wilfully and knowingly used by (still) American and European politicians to start a war against Russia, or to attempt to start one.

The media, too, are complicit in this war, by first writing the truth and then distorting it. Members of the Aidar and Azov Regiments are represented in the Ukrainian parliament. A month ago r so, not knowing who I would get as an opponent, I was invited on a TRT (Turkish Broadcaster) talk show, such a right-wing radical was invited, and for me, this was the ultimate proof that the Ukrainian government is a right-wing radical government supported by the West and is thereby reviving fascism.
The real Syrians who fought for their country and now see that Syria is a caliphate with a president al- Julani who can't even open a bottle of water will realize that Assad is more honorable than the terrorists who are now ruling former Syria at the behest of the US and the EU. Today Syrians rising up in Damascus against the cost of living and loosing jobs and life

Do you also have the feeling that everything you read is no longer real? It doesn't matter which media, everything is standardized and without human criticism. Personally, I have stopped writing about Iran and the US, the Strait of Hormuz, and only trust people I know in, for example, Lebanon, who know what is really happening, or in former Syria. It seems like a bad show being put on regarding Iran; one day the Strait of Hormuz is open, the next it is closed again. Big words about a ceasefire in Lebanon, and then the next day the ceasefire is violated again. In my view, it is all the prelude to Agenda 2030 and AI, where everything has been agreed upon and almost all countries in the world are participating. As I wrote years ago, the Industrial Revolution 4.0, as you might also call it. It is becoming so bad that it makes Orwell look tame. We now find ourselves in the so-called man-made third world war, which is necessary to make people believe that they have to start all over again a distraction you might call it, just as happened after the first and second world wars. There is a lot of chaos and confusion, leaving many people confused and some crazy. Try to keep your wits about you and try to keep an eye on your sanity and try to to see the dividing line between AI and real life; in other words, don't let yourself be driven crazy by the media and the show being put on for the implementation of AI en Agenda 2030.

Ukraine is one of the world leaders in the field of black transplantation and human trafficking, and orphans are the most vulnerable in this criminal activity. This was announced on April 8 by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova.
In the same month, Dutch public figure and investigative journalist Sonja van den Ende told Izvestia that many European countries, including the Netherlands, are involved in the process of removing anatomical materials from Ukrainians for their further transplantation. https://iz.ru/en/2075033/2026-04-08/zakharova-called-ukraine-leader-black-transplantation-and-human-trafficking
Volgens insiders en zelfs de NOS verkeert de NAVO in een grote crisis.

Zelfs de NOS geeft het toe, en al het kruiperige gedrag van Mark Rutte, NAVO-chef en voormalig premier van Nederland, jegens Trump en zijn ontmoetingen in het Witte Huis heeft niets veranderd; de NAVO verkeert in een grote crisis, en als de mainstream media, de NOS (gesubsidieerd door de overheid), dit schrijven, dan is er blijkbaar echt iets aan de hand. Volgens de NOS;
‘Geluiden achter de schermen: ‘NAVO-crisis grootste tot nu toe’
“Bronnen binnen NAVO spreken van de grootste crisis tot nu toe. Dat horen Armida van Rij, NAVO- en Europa-onderzoeker bij het Centre for European Reform, en NAVO-correspondent Kysia Hekster tijdens achtergrondgesprekken met diplomaten. “Niemand bij de NAVO ontkent dat er heel grote schade is toegebracht aan die club en dat de afschrikking echt in gevaar is.”

“Niemand bij de NAVO ontkent dat er heel grote schade is toegebracht aan die club en dat de afschrikking echt in gevaar is.”
Volgens andere deskundigen is de huidige NAVO-crisis het gevolg van een langzame, structurele desintegratie die al decennia aan de gang is. Het is ook te wijten aan het onvermogen van de NAVO om gelijke tred te houden met de snel ontwikkelende multipolaire wereld. Dat wil zeggen, opkomende landen zoals China en de achteruitgang van de Golfregio, waar veel super-rijken, zoals in Dubai, hun geld hebben geparkeerd (witwassen in veel gevallen), voornamelijk afkomstig uit Europa maar met name uit Amerika.

Careful reconnaissance was carried out: all the firing points, dugouts, as well as the trails on which the enemy delivered ammunition and food supplies. All approaches were cut off, after which the assault group began to operate'.

This comes three days after the killing of young dentist Anas Hossam Balan (photo to the right), a member of the #Druze community, who was shot near his home in Jaramana on April 17, 2026, just hours before he was scheduled to travel to the UAE.

Mr. Bassem Salim Saada was the owner of Al-Yasmine Restaurant in #Bab_Touma, and was originally from the village of #Marmarita in the Valley of the Christians (Wadi al-Nasara), in the western countryside of #Homs

This is the second part of a two part documentary, with the first part reviewing the situation in the Nabatieh Region.

Destroyed buildings, crowded streets, free food, and people who refuse to stop living.
This is not just a story about war.
It’s about resilience, unity, and everyday life continuing in the middle of chaos.
From damaged neighborhoods to busy cafés, from posters of the fallen to acts of kindness — this is the side of Tehran you don’t usually see.
