At least several times. During the 2026 Iran conflict, Trump has repeatedly announced pauses, ceasefires, or "no immediate plan" / deal talks (e.g., May 18 hold-off, July/Aug pauses, and recent "no fighting for months" claims). Strikes often resumed days later or continued quietly, including limited actions reported even as he made those statements this week. The pattern is well-documented. Winter is coming to America. #WinterIsComing

Both Starshield and StarLink services are delivered from the same satellite infrastructure. Hardware and orbital infrastructure are closely related—Starshield builds on the Starlink platform for scale and efficiency—while dedicated Starshield satellites handle specialized government missions beyond pure commercial broadband. The boundary is defined more by cryptography, control, terminals, and contractual terms than by entirely separate physical satellites. Will @elonmusk deny? When the Satellite is muted or destroyed because of its military nature, SpaceX shouldn’t scream about disrupting civilian satellite communications.

Politicians behave in the same way irrespective of geography. They are able to blatantly lie that their lies go uncontested as they are always a one way speech with no interactions.

Is India going to send its military to assist Israel in the upcoming Israeli-initiated War on Iran? Most likely Bibi is requesting India to let Israeli jets refuel in Mumbai or Pune on the way to their attacks on Iran. India has never permitted this act before, even in first Gulf War and Second to US or Israel. Will Modi heed to the request of Bibi? That will be a big blow to the carefully constructed Non-Alignment/Ride-on all parties Geopolitical strategy,

Previously US military was hired by Saudi Arabia. Now, Pakistan is being hired. From a professional thug to a local thug. When a professional thug is weighing the losses and consequences and declines to intervene, what a local thug can do. MBS is chasing a mirage. He should look for pen and paper instead.

Next is Iran. Iran sanctions will be waived off after declaring “victory”.

Except US, other countries have matured professionals in the international relations.
