hello again everyone and welcome back to the underground uh so today I wanted to do something new or rather something old mixed with a new so uh for those of you who've been following us for a while you know that I used to do these sort of PowerPoint Intel updates uh a while back last year I kind of stopped doing them uh in favor of doing some of the more short short and sweet uh wire reports so now that I've gotten that kind of going and gotten that into my workflow a little bit better I wanted to kind of take the opportunity to change things around a little bit and increase the efficiency of what I do and offer something else additional for you guys so here's the plan uh for now at least my plan is to continue the wire reports Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday and Friday so five days a week and then on Saturday I'm going to stop doing a Saturday wire and I'm going to stop doing the wire rollup text version and I'm going to substitute it with this so this will be a good grin some graphic intelligence summary rollup Saturday report allinone so this is going to allow me to do a couple of things one it allows me to more easily convey my sources because I can drop the slides for you guys to take a look at and you can see what sources I'm using uh and usually by Saturday if there's a source that I'm working with that's a little bit like sketchy or not I mean it's I'm always working with public information of course but uh if it's a little bit unconfirmed or something we can iron these details out by Saturday use Saturday as a way to refresh what happened during the week kind of maybe refresh our memories to some of the things that occurred throughout the week and it also allows me to have a little bit more of a graphical experience here I can talk about things more in depth you guys know the drill right so that's what this is going I'm going to try to do this moving forward of course this is a lot more work on my end um it's not that much more work I I don't think it'll be too bad um but it is an additional four hours of content for you guys a month uh more or less so uh hopefully most of the work will be done throughout the week and on Saturday we can take some time to get a little bit more in depth so hopefully this will be helpful for some of you who prefer maybe the long form content a little bit more detail a little bit more you know Graphics to kind of go along with things uh hopefully this will will help you guys out uh quite a bit so without further Ado let's jump right into it and right up front we have the Northeast region so uh for this region for now the only thing that I have of note that kind of you know caught my ey this week was the passing of House Bill 6090 now this is of course going around the internet uh and people are kind of freaking out about it because of what's contained in the bill so of course I don't want to go into too much detail because this is a house bill right so it passed the house now it's in the Senate there can be changes it it can be kicked back to the house for more changes uh I don't think it will I think it's going to pass just like it is uh which is kind kind of concerning uh so for those of you who aren't aware of what Bill 690 is I would encourage you to just read it just read it yourself don't take it from me don't read some uh somebody's opinion on the internet about it read the bill yourself just drop it into an internet search browser and read it right from the Congressional web page because it's it's um it's pretty clear uh one of the biggest contentions that I have with the bill is definitions of course uh for those of you who are unaware as to some of the little slip tricks politicians like to use on all sides politicians on all sides use this um but this is something that has become a huge problem which is basically handing the keys to the castle over to a third party group and this is where the majority of the problems lie so imagine for a moment if uh the United States government wrote A bill you know Congress wrote a bill and passed a bill that stated that um China's view uh a Chinese company's view let's just say um uh Tik Tok or something like that whatever Tik Tok decides uh should be banned will be banned under us law that sounds a little extreme doesn't it sounds a little bit sounds a little bit crazy uh whatever China determines to be uh bad will be will be banned as far as speech goes so that's exactly what happens underneath this bill it allows a third-party uh agency a third party company group NGO whatever you want to call it um with very strong ties to another Nation if you know what I mean uh it allows that group to Def to change the definitions of things so the bill is passed and nothing happens right because the definition hasn't been written yet but in the future if this company agency NGO whatever wants to say all right this speech is now banned well the law because they have been given Authority under it that that's a problem so um that's one of the major concerns for this bill is that not that the bill itself outright bans speech it gives authority to another group it adopts that group's definitions of things it adopts that group's standards of things uh in order to make that speech illegal so huge problem in my opinion uh especially considering another bill which you should definitely look into which is Bill 7921 uh this one was introduced before this bill so it's a classic classic case of you got two bills B okay Bill one and Bill two you decide to pass Bill two first and Bill two contains language that refers to Bill one and that's and so you pass Bill two everyone freaks out the the White House can then say Oh no this is this is all not real look there's nothing in this bill that's that's nefarious it just says definitions and things like that it links to other things but there's there's nothing there right and then the so Community notes goes crazy over it saying oh this isn't in the bill well no no it's not that that line is directly not in the bill but that line is said by the agency quoted in the bill so then we get uh bills that like uh 7921 which then basically uh outline the procedures for um education systems so defining who and what uh definitions get used in education or re-education so again pretty scary times when it comes to speech even if it doesn't matter what your political views are doesn't matter what your stances are on foreign policy or anything if you're paying taxes in America you you might want to read this and be a little bit concerned about it I know there's nothing the American people can do about it uh because politicians are just going to do what politicians do best and just you know not really listen to their constituents however something to be mindful of if nothing else be mindful of the trickery that's at play here with regards to changing definitions and hand over authority to an NGO to develop the criteria for what's okay and not in the bill so that's something to be concerned about moving forward uh moving forward into the Southeast region uh one item of note that I did want to mention because the mainstream media has of course dropped the story because it doesn't fit either a conservative or liberal narrative so uh they've kind of forgotten about it and that is a police shooting that occurred in Charlotte North Carolina so no real information on this one to be honest uh I'm kind of interested into to why there were so many agencies involved in this however the reason that this uh story is of note is because it resulted in four possibly five fatalities again reports are differing I haven't had time to actually dig down to the bottom of this yet but at least four officers were were shot and and killed on scene and I think uh at least eight others were wounded all of which come from differing uh agencies initially the media said that it was uh three or four US Marshals uh that is not the case at least one was a was a marshall uh but they were on a US Marshall task force you'll see that happen quite a lot actually mostly because they legally have to uh bring in a lot of local Law Enforcement Officers onto a task force uh Team so that the feds have jurisdiction uh in a particular area for a particular task but again four fatalities possibly five and unfortunately they want to call it too soon but it may be more uh based on um some of the reports I've been reading uh based on some of the wounded from this incident but I again I did want to mention it because you know once again the uh media kind of has dropped this story so again yeah not not super great uh just kind of highlights some of the unrest that we have going on in the United States moving on to the West Central midwestern region that's a mouthful uh we have another whistleblower death uh linked to Boe and spirit arrow system so Joshua Dean uh on April 28th succumbed to a uh series of bacterial infections uh he had pneumonia Mera a few other infections and unfortunately um he died in a hospital after being life flighted to Oklahoma City now Joshua Dean is important because he was a whistleblower and kind of a public complaintant uh with regards to Spirit Eros system so he was alleging over the past couple of years that he was fired by spirit because he pointed out the construction flaws and assembly flaws with the um Boeing 887 Dreamliner project so Spirit fired him he again turned whistleblower I think he did testify quite a bit against Spirit I'm not sure about Boe directly uh but you know their spirit's a subsidiary of BOE so um yeah this is a uh uh kind of a suspicious thing again though this is a great opportunity to take uh take use of some of that basian analysis and some of that um more structured analytical techniques right so you know just my own thinking you know I I think that this is pretty suspicious uh one whistleblower okay you know anything can happen you can't really say anything two whistleblowers die under mysterious circumstances you know he wasn't sick two weeks ago and then suddenly within just a few days he's he's he's unfortunately um dead so this you know so this is not something that normally happens um again I don't want to you know you know slam the tinfoil hat on too much but again if we're trying to use a structur analytic technique my own basian thinking uh really strongly indicates something's up here um because you don't typically have high-profile Witnesses SL whistleblowers um you know dying uh in in the ways that they did so again this is not something that is uh a terribly good thing to see moving on to the southwestern region one incident of note of course there are many but one that I highlighted in The Wire reports uh this week which is the uh BNSF Railway derailment this was on the Arizona New Mexico border uh Train derailed there uh as it was crossing and uh it was mostly carrying propane and gasoline so I ended up closing the interstate for a while um and it was kind of a big deal because the fire was quite significant as you could probably imagine no indication of what happened no indication of why it derailed from the images and from where I think the accident took place it wasn't in a curve it was in a straight straight uh Crossing uh initial police reports did not mention any like Crossing incident because normally okay first of all trains derail around the United States all day long uh every day there are many derailing uh almost all of them however are very obviously accidental or due to a a vehicle stalled on the track at a Crossing I don't know if that occurred here uh because there haven't really been any uh details made public and local journalists are not interested in these kinds of things anymore so you you have a really hard time figuring out exactly where it took place uh exactly what happened and you know was there anything potentially indicating anything to FY so I don't really know what happened so I just kind of have to keep it on the slide until we know more information moving on to the western region all right this is a big deal but maybe not in the ways that you might think uh so I highlighted in The Wire something that um scared it was quite scary okay and I don't mean for it to be scary but we've got to be real serious here for a moment so please forgive me if this uh seems a little bit um maybe far-fetched uh but please keep in mind I am working through this analytically I'm not trying to scare people I'm trying to take the information that I have synthesize it analyze it figure out what's going on and then provide an assess on it if that initial data is not changed I cannot provide an accurate updated assessment so with that in mind let's talk about the UCLA mice incident uh this has gone around social media a lot of it is circular reporting and what I mean by circular reporting is you've got one source that that puts out like a video or a photo and then 15 or 16 other accounts copy that they download it from Twitter they download it from Snapchat or whatever and then they repost it underneath their own account so now now you've turned one source into like 15 or 20 sources this doesn't mean that you now have 15 or 20 sources you got one source okay the primary source that posted the first uh bit of data evidence whatever that's what you have you don't have corroborating information you need another primary source you don't need a bunch of other reposting accounts so that's basically what we've got going on we've got three or four accounts that have posted information about this entire situ and a bunch of reposts okay the reposts don't count right they don't count as a source they're they're a secondary source of anything and all of these refer to an individual uh unidentified of course um going up to the main encampment at UCLA and Rel opening up a a black backpack and depositing that backpack basically in the center of like the quad area uh for UCLA right the main uh kind of grassy structure where this encampment was set up and inside the backpack were a lot of live mice uh the mice immediately scattered into the encampment and uh some of the mice were captured by some of the protesters and demonstrators or whatever and the mice showed um very suspicious markings on their backs um some people immediately said they're injection marks I don't I don't know that for sure uh because the again these people are not bright enough to take really good photos of the mice uh so again we're suffering from a a loss of information um in the v in one of the videos provided there were a couple of security guards in the background that saw the whole incident so law enforcement does know about this incident uh the protesters obviously uh complained about it to police but we know how this goes right um they kind of you know ticked off everyone in an authoritative position so they're not really inclined to be listened to um as far as the physical evidence that's that's basically it uh I don't know if the red markings were injection marks uh usually you don't see injection marks even on mice um they some of them looked like they had been shaved and maybe a scientific apparatus like surgically implanted onto them at one point which was now gone which that may have been the reason for the the red mark I personally I'm not a research scientist so I can't say what that could have been uh it also could have just been a marking it could have just been a paint Mark uh to Mark the mice that were used for this project or this project or so on and so forth so my uh risk analysis okay my risk management Matrix looks a little bit different now right uh because of this information that we have uh also my Carver technique just has you know alarm Bells going off because of the potential severity for the situation so me looking from the outside in um I just I I feel like I shouldn't have to say this at this point but I'm I'm going to say anyway just for those of you who are not aware I am trying to take a neutral standpoint with these demonstrations I don't support either side or the other I'm trying to be as neutral and objective as humanly possible especially when it comes to potentially very very serious incidents like this so why is this such worthy of a lot of coverage and a lot of discussion and a lot of text like why is this worth me talking so much about it when no one else cares that's why no one seems to care uh the reason that we want to maybe consider this a little bit more is because we have the most likely scenario and we have the most deadly scenario most dangerous most likely COA most dangerous or most deadly COA now me being the analyst right or trying to be we have to think in terms of all right we're operational we're on the ground we're we're we're we're working through issues in real time if I'm on the ground boots on ground and I'm working on this issue I have to go with the most deadly first right this is very common sense when it comes to every other issue in the Tactical realm you assume the most deadly if you have very little information you have an indicator assume most deadly and then walk it back try to walk it back if you have more information Guy s guy sitting in an observation post out in the middle of the woods radios you in the middle of the night hey I've got I've got four aircraft that are headed right towards you right now okay you wake up you assume that they're there to bomb you or strike you in some way so that's what you think in that first 30 seconds that's your assessment most deadly go you wake up you go to your talk you go to your situation you and then then you can get some more information and oh okay well they're they're they're not really coming directly towards you they're going in a different direction or they're doing something else and then you can start to walk your risk back but in that first 30 seconds you're putting your kid on you know what I mean same situation with this if I hear an unidentified person dropped a backpack full of potentially you know laboratory experiment you know mice we don't know what or if they have been injected with anything we don't know anything about the person who did it but we also know that in this situation the protesters have ticked off the cops so that no one cares there's no investigation they dropped mice off at a place where they know the mice are going to run into the encampment because they've got lots of places to hide and we know that the encampments to you know not be disrespectful or anything but they're not the cleanest in the world these people are very unhygienic as you can uh see from a lot of the debris that was left from uh the clearing of these encampments oh and by the way the encampments were cleared so a couple of days after this everyone has either been arrested or removed from the area so now you've got a dispersed population what does that tell me as an analyst that tells me that someone an unidentified person can walk up to a crowd of people drop off a potential biological device device and within a few days no not only will no one care or investigate but those people will now be dispersed throughout the United States potentially so again I don't want to you know like Stoke fear or anything but hey this is a big deal and for me I don't feel that the burden of proof is on me I feel like the burden of proof is on the investigators who are being paid with my tax dollars do you realize how easy it would be to prove everything I just said all they have to do is go and get one of the iice test it you know preferably all of them but test it and see what there is the FBI and many other Federal ag even the National Guard has Laboratories scientific Laboratories all around the United States that do this exact thing that are meant to test for potential terrorist activities that's what they do that's their whole mission and no one seems to care no one seems to care about this like I would I am the first person I'm the first person to be extremely happy to find out this was just some student at UCLA who's a research student they had access to a lab not easy to get access to a lab and they uh were able to grab some of their research subjects release them into the encampment as a prank or as just some kind of way of stoking fear propaganda right the propaganda value of this cannot be uh cannot be dismissed I would H I would be very very happy to find that out that this was all just a harmless incident but never forget and this is something we we absolutely cannot forget and I pleading with you to please please please listen to me on this one thing you even if it is a propaganda or scup or something no matter what it is that doesn't mean that scup can't kill you so please do not think oh this very severe thing happened in society this very severe incident happened it's very obviously a scop that doesn't mean that it's not real do you see so this could have been a scop just to freak out the people in the encampments because that's exactly what happened right all these protesters immediately started talking about it and started freaking out that they were under a biological attack great way to stoke fear and great way to get the great way to get people to leave the protest for very little you know very little cost all you got to do is go to a pet store get some mice make it look like they've been injected with something and release them very efficient and very cheap scop to get people to leave somewhere however because we don't know for sure we have to go with the most dangerous Cola right I think it was probably a prank I think it was probably nothing but I can't tell you that for sure and the severity of it is so severe that we need to investigate this and I'm not seeing anyone investigate it either way the point's moot Now isn't it because everybody's been arrested and released or now they're all at the other protests all around the country so this is a huge problem of risk management uh of Carver technique of all this kind of analytical thing and and I I just feel kind of you know like like I'm the crazy one here for thinking that this is this is a concern um but anyway I I did want to kind of show a little bit more information on that some other information that I guess we just kind of forgot was all of those Chinese Biol laabs that were discovered the main one was in Reedley California which um I think was up by Fresno so two or three hours away from the UCLA incident but they what did they find they found literally ch Communist Party linked biolabs in California illegally conducting experiments on mice with things like Ebola Bubonic plague yellow fever these horrific things um there were also some initial reports that they were working on Infected lice which were on which they placed on mice that they were marking do you see the concern here um so when you add in this other information you're just your Threat Level just goes up through the roof now does this mean that you're going to start walking around with a tyvex suit and respirator no but it does mean that I would really really really please and thank you appreciate uh some of my tax dollars being used to maybe investigate this a little bit um and that did not happen so again we assume most deadly and then when we get new information we walk it back I would I love it I love to walk things back ple you know please don't think I'm sitting here you know trying to be super inflammatory all the time no I love to walk things back I really do um I would love to be relieved I'm the first person who would want to be relieved that this is just all just nothing and I'm just wasting my time talking about it but it hasn't happened okay it hasn't happened we haven't gotten any information I haven't seen any press statements from any Authority that mention it there may have been a few but you know it's you know at this point it's a moot point so again moving forward what can you do as the average person be aware be aware hone your skills with basy and thinking learn please learn please please please learn how to use the Carver technique properly please learn that um I've seen a few U mentions of the Carver technique that are um you know floating around the interwebs and they're not right they're they're you unfortunately fairly wrong so I have a video on the Carver technique if you want to check that out there's also plenty of blog posts not written by me all over the Internet showing you how to use the Carver technique um but again please uh re-examine if you've learned that correctly and um try to use that when trying to uh assess threats to local things in your area you're probably not going to be able to do it very effectively uh for somewhere like a place where you don't know the vulnerabilities because those vulnerabilities are hidden for a good reason but you can get a pretty good idea man huge crowds person with a backpack you know this time it's mice next time we don't know right they can approach they can approach the encampment they can uh they they can do whatever they want and then leave oh and by the way people will be dispersed you know so people will be like completely you know uh gone uh from the whole area that'll be all around the United States because as we all know uh through some of the mainstream reporting on this most of these protesters at these universities aren't local they're not local they're not students they're being paid and flown in to do this now a lot of them are local students but a lot of them are just paid agitators right from one side or the other remember agitators occur on both sides usually so again something to remember uh when moving forward is please please please try to add a little bit more analysis to your thinking you don't have to do a whole basian analysis math right you know we don't have to break out our our notepads and go to work on this but just think along those lines think along those lines of the vulnerabilities think along the lines of what someone has learned from this incident and Mal even if this incident was perfectly innocent or maybe not particularly maybe not totally innocent like it's still you know something pretty nefarious so it may have not been a you know CCP biot terror attack you know it could have just been a student but the more malign actors just learned how far they can go with no one caring right with no one paying attention to them so that's something to to definitely uh keep in mind moving forward um it's not exactly something that a lot of people want to think about because of you know kind of how scary it is but um something that I would definitely keep in mind moving forward so I'll I've talked to death on that so we'll move on to the one of the more again interesting incidents that you might want to keep a hold of even if you don't care so uh and this is of course referring to the incident in the Sahel uh in Niger uh just a first a quick correction to the wire report again um sorry about that the uh I reported yesterday I think in The Wire that the Russians had occupied base 201 they had not they' have not occupied base 2011 they've not moved in the American base there they've moved into base 101 so let me explain um why I was so wrong on that so maybe you guys can learn from my mistakes uh I saw the report come out and I think it was a Friday drop I think that's what it was I got caught they got me they got me with the garbage uh so for those of you who don't know how the Pentagon likes to likes to drop stories they don't want people to know about they tell they call it in every political regime since the dawn of time has called it taking out the trash they drop a bunch of sto they put a bunch of stories together on Friday afternoon when the reporters are sitting there looking and uh uh wanting to begin their weekend and they they Nestle all these stories together into one uh and into one like press briefing and and when they do that uh they uh hope that nobody pays attention to any one issue so they kind of try to sneak important stuff in out with the garbage so with this one uh this is actually a great learning point even for somebody like me who's been doing this a while what they did was very sneaky and what they did was this is something that the Pentagon now does routinely and regularly okay the White House used to do it now the Pentagon does it routinely what they'll do is if they have a really bad story to break if they have like a really bad something really bad happen happens anywhere in the world what they'll do is they'll leak it first they'll leak it first and those five or six reports will five or six reporters they leak it to will publish it they will go ahead and publish because the media doesn't care anymore they'll publish the story and they'll site unnamed White House officials or unnamed senior defense official and they'll wait they'll wait a couple of hours and see if anybody freaks out and then the Pentagon will get ready for their briefing for their press briefing on it because if people freak out now they have ammunition don't they now they know what people are freaking out about and they know how to spin the story so what they did with this one is they leaked it and they leaked the story that Russians had occupied an American base they didn't say which base when they leaked it first so what they did so people like me I got caught they got me uh assumed it was based 2011 uh because who would care about any other base well it wasn't base 2011 it was Bas 101 they're two different bases in Niger uh base 101's an old um Firebase uh cop whatever you want to call it uh that we I think we I I this is just I think I think we basically just abandoned it last year or year and a half ago uh basically we definitely uh we may have maintained a a small Force there but when this whole Niger um you know military coup took place we kind of like stepped back from that one so basic 101 there nothing there uh and Russia walked into that one but that's not what the initial report said it said occupies an American base so all the African media runs with they're at base 2011 and they never actually said that in their leak so then when the Pentagon gets when you know SE def Austin gets up there behind the podium and he says yes uh Russians have moved into base 101 uh in central Niger you know hundreds of miles away from base 2011 which is the base we all care about right because there's Americans at it uh and people like me look like a fool because I didn't wait so that's my bad but it is interesting to see how these things kind of happen because I thought man that's that was slippery they got me anyway um yeah the Russians are at base 101 it doesn't really change the overall assessment that I wrote uh because this is a big deal uh Niger doesn't want the United States there there's there's quite a few troops still at base 201 um it's let's see how should I talk about this uh the problem with Bas with what's going on in Niger is that there are a lot of of public sources so I can get a decent picture of what's going on on the ground but um I don't necessarily want to share that information even though it's ENT I don't want to necessarily share that information because it's a sticky situation on the ground this isn't Cobble uh where everyone and their cousin is talking about it and we have a pretty good picture all over the Internet uh this is a situation where this could be very this could be a lot worse because contrary to popular belief uh during the the Cabo crisis the Taliban was not our primary enemy during the mission to leave uh during that cabal airport crisis so if the Taliban knows we're watching them I it doesn't matter right if the Taliban knows oh hey Americans are landing you know they're Landing helicopters at this compound it doesn't really matter what does matter is Isis knowing that uh and the you know CIA operatives that kind of ran that situation in Niger the situation is wholly different everyone in Niger hates the Americans the civilians hate Americans the N the Nigerian military is looking to kick us out at a Bayonet Point basically and now the Russians are involved so this is not good now I know Americans don't give one Hoot about Africa or what's going on in Niger especially considering you know most Americans I think feel that we shouldn't have been there in the first place and finally we're leaving a place where we we should not have been in the first place fine I get it okay I'm not concerned about the long-term geopolitical situation I'm not saying we should stay or leave or whatever I'm just saying there's an awful lot of Americans on the ground and we don't have a really good track record for getting out of Africa unscathed if you know what I mean just look at the just look at the map and figure out where they're going to go uh because there are a few sycom accidentally leaked a secret report uh showing all the secret bases we got in Africa a while back and so everybody knows now that there aren't that many bases within range uh that are super friendly to the Americans so getting people out of Niger is going to be a problem especially considering his tight quarters now at 201 so um this story kind of broke a few weeks ago when a lot of people who are stationed at base 2011 uh squealed squealed to Congress about their situation and um yeah there's a there's a whole scandal with that uh they're running out of they don't have any running water uh food is is uh challenging to get in and out because Niger has B basically encircled the position there in Niger uh That Base 2011 in agades out in the northeastern part of the country so this is a um it's a sticky situation it's only getting worse um I don't care because I care about Niger I'm just going to say that right out front uh Niger is a basically a failed State uh from an American perspective at least but um it is important to note this because we have a potential for for something very very very very very bad had to happen and uh I don't want to see that so I'm concerned about it and I'll keep talking about it and I'll keep doing research on it um so that if we have a cobble 2.0 we you know it's now the season for embassy evacuations and um the situation in naami at the American Embassy in naami and at the airport in uh in naami is not good um you just look at a map and you know what I'm saying this ain't good uh so anyway uh that's all I have for Niger um good learning experience all around especially when it comes to I mean even if you don't care about Niger this is interesting to kind of keep an eye on so wrapping things up with the Middle East or technically I guess you'd call it the Mediterranean uh and this is one of the developing stories that's kind of broken this week which is turkey cting economic ties with Israel now I personally am kind of skeptical about this because uh turkey has a history of claiming they do a lot of talking uh turkey claims a lot and then they do something else so turkey in the beginning of this uh turkey claimed to kind of restrict the uh economic ties with Israel obviously due to the religious political implications of the situation in Gaza right uh turkey being a NATO member kind of complicates things quite a bit and turkey having having one foot in Europe and one foot in Asia uh is is complicating as well but the other day turkey announced that they're cutting all economic ties all trade with Israel is is now closed uh this includes po petroleum oil and lubricant production and for those of you who don't know Israel gets a lot of oil from Turkey they get a lot of oil and gas maybe it's not so much gas but a lot of oil um through turkey uh from aeran so this could be a very significant incident if Turkey is genuine like I said turkey has been caught saying one thing about about not cooperating with Israel and then they go and they Supply Israel people catch on um the ship tracking websites they'll catch Turkish ships leaving with cargo uh and Landing Cargo in Israel to supply Israel and then they'll have another ship Landing in Egypt to supply the Palestinians so turkey a lot of times plays both sides of the issue uh with regards to these sorts of things you know like many other nations as we know but uh if turkey has indeed shut down trade with Israel this could be a problem for Israel so you know anytime Israel gets pushed into a corner um bad things tend to happen so again something to keep an eye on moving forward so that's all I have for today I think we'll call it a day on that uh there are many more things that have of course occurred but this is what I mentioned in the wire reports this week and this is kind of a good way to get our our feet wet again by doing some of these uh briefings again sources are in the slides the slide decks will be available uh wherever I can host it so patreon will allow me to attach it I you should be able to see it even if you're not if you know even if you're not subscribed or anything so that's a good file hosting option I think I don't entirely know I'll try to hang in anywhere I can uh with regards to that so you guys can get a clickable link that makes it a little easier but again this is uh what we have for today uh thank you all for hanging in there uh we'll see how these things go um hopefully this will be something that has a lot of value added and is not just something that's kind of redundant or repetitive uh and uh hopefully we can continue this uh well into the future so thank you all for watching uh thank you all for your support I really do mean it I would not be able to do any of this stuff I wouldn't be doing any of this stuff unless you guys um uh supported me uh and and found value in in doing this so uh thank you for that I really do hope it helps and I guess we'll see you next time so so as always thank you for watching and we will see you next time and as always fight in the shade
