Military buildup: The United States is currently pre-positioning military assets in Diego Garcia. Recent reports indicate a significant buildup, including the deployment of at least five to seven B-2 Spirit stealth bombers from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri to the island in the past week, as of March 29, 2025. This is accompanied by multiple C-17 cargo planes and KC-135 refueling tankers, with satellite imagery and open-source intelligence tracking confirming these movements. The strategic positioning of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean makes it a key staging point for potential operations, particularly in the Middle East, amid rising tensions with Iran and ongoing strikes against Houthi forces in Yemen. This buildup follows a pattern of previous deployments to the island for contingency operations, suggesting preparation for possible large-scale military action.
April 7,2025: Based on recent reports, satellite imagery, and credible analyses, the following assets have been identified or inferred to be present in Diego Garcia:
B-2 Spirit Stealth Bombers: At least six B-2 bombers have been confirmed via satellite imagery from Planet Labs, with some estimates suggesting up to seven or more. These stealth bombers are capable of carrying massive ordnance, including the GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator, designed for hardened targets. The exact number may vary, as some could be housed in shelters, obscuring them from view.
KC-135 Stratotanker Refueling Aircraft: Reports indicate between seven and ten KC-135s are deployed, providing aerial refueling support to extend the range of bombers and other aircraft. Satellite images have shown up to nine visible at times.
C-17 Globemaster III Cargo Planes: Multiple C-17s, with estimates ranging from seven to ten, have been tracked landing at Diego Garcia. These aircraft are likely transporting personnel, equipment, and supplies to support the buildup.
B-52H Stratofortress Bombers: Some sources suggest the presence of up to eight B-52H heavy bombers, though this is less consistently confirmed compared to the B-2s. These long-range bombers enhance the base’s strike capability.
Other Fighter Jets: Posts on X and some reports mention “dozens of fighter jets,” potentially including F-35s, though specific numbers and types remain unverified in official channels.
Ohio-Class Ballistic Missile Submarine: One Ohio-class submarine is noted in the Indian Ocean, possibly operating out of or supported by Diego Garcia’s naval facilities. These submarines can carry ballistic or cruise missiles, adding a significant strategic dimension.
Maritime Pre-Positioning Ships: Diego Garcia hosts a squadron of Maritime Pre-Positioning Ships (MPSRON-2), typically around 20 deep-water logistics vessels. These ships are pre-loaded with equipment and supplies for rapid deployment, supporting ground forces like Marine brigades.
Surveillance and Support Aircraft: The base historically supports surveillance platforms, though specific types (e.g., P-8 Poseidon or RQ-4 Global Hawk) currently present are not detailed in recent updates.
Naval Assets: The deep-water port can accommodate aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines, though no specific carrier strike groups or additional submarines beyond the Ohio-class are confirmed as stationed there right now.
This list reflects a significant military buildup, consistent with the base’s role as a logistics and power projection hub. However, exact numbers and additional assets (e.g., missile defense systems or smaller aircraft) are subject to change and lack full official confirmation. Diego Garcia’s infrastructure, including its airfield and harbor, supports a wide range of operations, making it a versatile staging ground for potential Middle East missions.
US Forces in Middle East on Alert! C-17 military transport planes are delivering Patriot missile batteries defense to Isa Air Base in Bahrain, 100 miles from Iran. Rapidly deployed from South Korea, the US is preparing for a major war against Iran, after Iran threatened to destroy all US bases in the Middle East!!
Head Sneetch Tom Luongo goes in search for the bigger picture with Alex (Sasha) Krainer: From X / Twitter (6/20/25) Why did Israel attack Iran? Why now? What is Donald Trump’s play here? What about the role of Russia & the European & British elites? @TFL1728 & @NakedHedgie have a heated discussion about this emotive issue.
In 2024, approximately 45% of China’s crude oil imports, equivalent to about 5.3 million barrels per day (b/d), passed through the Strait of Hormuz. This accounts for roughly 30–47% of China’s total oil consumption, with the Persian Gulf region, including countries like Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Iran, supplying over 50% of China’s oil imports.
The PSYOP:
Same MO used for COVID. ASSANGE:Hollywood script writers who say they are ‘Jewish’ have been planting the mental seeds for war with Iran for years, including in Top Gun Maverick, Homeland, 24, & in the DreamWorks film on Julian Assange ‘The Fifth Estate’.
From Twitter/X (https://x.com/AXChristoforou), Alex writes the following post on 3/12/25:
Fait Accompli in Jeddah.
The US and its Ukraine proxy, held 8 hour talks and agreed to “30-day ceasefire” terms. Here is what we know so far:
– Zelensky was not present at the talks. – Chief of staff Yermak led the Ukraine team. Rubio and Waltz led the US team. – On X, Zelensky explained the plan as a, “30-day full interim ceasefire, not only stopping missile, drone, and bomb attacks, not only in the Black Sea, but also along the entire front line. Ukraine is ready to accept this proposal — we see it as a positive step and are ready to take it. Now, it is up to the United States to convince Russia to do the same.” – Rubio and Waltz will take their terms to Russia… “The ball is now in their court” – Rubio. – This is a temporary truce, that can be extended… Via Politico: Once fighting is paused, negotiations will begin immediately on the terms of a permanent peace. Both the U.S. and Ukraine have promised to name their negotiating teams as soon as possible.
– Also via Politico: The pause in the fighting would allow humanitarian steps, including the exchange of prisoners of war, the release of detained civilians “and the return of forcibly transferred Ukrainian children,” the joint statement said. 👆Note the above term “forcibly.” Russia would be accepting the Collective West/ICC claims on this issue if they agree to the terms.
– The US has agreed to share intelligence and continue weapons flow with Ukraine. – No minerals deal was signed. Reports are Trump will invite Zelensky back to the White House to sign the minerals deal. – The topic of Ukraine ceding territory was not discussed according to a Ukrainian official. – Trump team did not agree to security guarantees. – Ukraine wants Europe to be involved in this process, but this was not defined. – UK Starmer has called a meeting of European leaders this Saturday to prepare for troops into Ukraine should Russia agree to these terms.
Want to add some quick thoughts to the above post. Just my view of how things could unfold. These are not carefully thought out predictions. More like spitballing some ideas (apologize for any spelling errors and poor formatting)…
1. The talks in Jeddah, not really negotiations. The US is on record to being in a proxy war with Russia. Yesterday was the US and its proxy sitting down to agree to the terms they would deliver to Russia. They settled on the Macron/Starmer no fly zone plan. This is the plan they decided to go with.
2. Russia can accept or reject these terms. They can also decide to counter and present their own terms (for the 1,000th time Istanbul Plus) to the US, and more negotiations follow.
3. There is a very small possibility Putin agrees to the US terms (or something close to them), DO NOT rule this out.
4. Most likely Russia will reject these terms and counter offer.
5, Trump will threaten HUGE sanctions, crashing oil etc… US military escalation, long range strikes…will Russia blink?
6. Trump will push to meet Xi, contact Modi, pressure SA, Brazil…put pressure to break apart BRICS/Global South support for Russia.
7. Watch Musk’s posts on X. See if he turns up the propaganda pressure against Russia in the next couple of days.
8. The US will play to their strengths, the only card they really hold…the INFO WAR space. Which is Russia’s big weakness. Russia will be painted as the party that “turns down peace.”
9. Keep in mind Russia has made its conditions for a ceasefire public since at least June 2024 (Istanbul Plus). The west media will completely ignore this FACT.
10. NATO Rutte meets Trump this week (I believe today).
11. The US/EU/UK/NATO are now in perfect sync when it comes to project Ukraine.
12. Do not trust Erdogan. He will betray Russia.
13. Keep an eye on developments in Romania.
14. Trump will speak with Putin, most likely on Friday. Outside chance that Putin convinces Trump to see things in terms of Istanbul Plus, pressure reverses back towards Zelensky and EU/UK. Outside chance but possible that this swings again in opposite direction.
– Trump (the person) has no real understanding how to end this. He is making things up as they come.
15 AND FINALLY…Trump now owns this. Ukraine is Trump’s war.
Syria’s collapse is a loss for the Syrian people and their Iranian, Russian, and Chinese allies;
It is a reminder that while US military and industrial power wanes, it still possesses potent “superweapons” in terms of monopolizing information space, poisoning populations against their own best interests, and toppling nations;
The US strategy has been to create multiple crises for Russia along its periphery including in Syria, forcing Russia to make difficult decisions regarding where it commits limited resources;
The multipolar world must accept the reality that what is essentially World War 3 is ongoing and they will all eventually be targeted in turn;
Investment is required in securing and defending national and regional information space from US interference through the creation of local education programs producing journalists and analysts, local social media platforms to replace US-based platforms, and laws ending foreign funding of media inside targeted countries;
Another Nation Absorbed Into The Blob Of The Empire And now the imperial blob rolls on to absorb its next target, having grown one Syria-sized increment larger after spending years digesting that nation via proxy warfare, sanctions, relentless bombing campaigns from Israel, and a military occupation designed to steal its food and fuel.

An interesting article from Taiwan on Nord Stream translated with the help of Google translate.
According to the German media “NDR” reported on August 3 this year, the United States quietly deployed 4,000 soldiers near Bornholm Island in Denmark, and the location of the explosion and leakage happened to be located on Bornholm Island.
On August 23, the U.S. military sold two robotic arms with a water depth of 150 meters to the British intelligence service; before the explosion, the frogmen of the British Surface Fleet worked for three days near Bornholm Island, which is the North Stream pipeline.
From September 2 to 13, the U.S. Navy MH-60S conducted a series of flights with the ADS-B signal turned on around the leak point of the Beixi (Nord Stream) pipeline, and its flight trajectory completely coincided with the leak point of the Beixi pipeline.
On September 27, two British frogmen were rewarded for performing a particularly difficult underwater mission in foreign waters; the two pipeline explosions were separated by fifteen hours, during which time the U.S. P8A reconnaissance aircraft repeatedly reconnaissance.
It can be seen from this information that under the cover of the deployment of the US military, the British underwater frogman special forces used the underwater manipulator provided by the United States to take directional blasting on the Beixi No. 2 pipeline. It is not difficult to place explosives under water for several tens of meters, but it is necessary to drill through the concrete wrapped by the pipeline and then place the explosives on it, and multiple layers of detonation are required to ensure that the pipeline is directly blown after the concrete is blown up, which requires professional soldiers of the special forces. Judging from an earthquake with an explosive yield of 2.3, such a large yield is enough to destroy the pipeline. At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of the blasters, a long-distance remote-controlled underwater manipulator must be used.
Although the Beixi Line 1 is under maintenance and the Beixi Line 2 has not been opened yet, the interior of the pipe body is already full of natural gas. Therefore, after the successful blasting, the natural gas gushed out like spring water. The bubbles rose to the surface of the Baltic Sea, forming a “bubble circle” more than a kilometer in diameter. And because it was an underwater explosion, the explosion did not cause a fire, and it was not noticed until a large influx of natural gas. From the time of the influx to the discovery, the British and American personnel have completed their tasks and retreated.
The British and American methods of blasting the Nord Stream pipeline are very tricky. The North Stream pipeline is 1,000 kilometers long, and most of the waters it passes through are very shallow. However, the British underwater frogmen specially chose to blast in the deep water area 2 kilometers away from the Danish territorial waters. This greatly increases the complexity and difficulty of Russian maintenance, and cannot be repaired in a short period of time. If it is not maintained for a long time, a large amount of salt water will flow in and corrode the pipeline, and the entire Nord Stream pipeline will never be used. The location of the selected point is accurate, and the whole is directly scrapped. This is obviously the blasting point carefully planned and selected by the British and the United States.

President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Citizens of Russia, citizens of the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, residents of the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions, deputies of the State Duma, senators of the Russian Federation,
As you know, referendums have been held in the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions. The ballots have been counted and the results have been announced. The people have made their unequivocal choice.
Today we will sign treaties on the accession of the Donetsk People’s Republic, Lugansk People’s Republic, Zaporozhye Region and Kherson Region to the Russian Federation. I have no doubt that the Federal Assembly will support the constitutional laws on the accession to Russia and the establishment of four new regions, our new constituent entities of the Russian Federation, because this is the will of millions of people. (Applause.)
It is undoubtedly their right, an inherent right sealed in Article 1 of the UN Charter, which directly states the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples.
I repeat, it is an inherent right of the people. It is based on our historical affinity, and it is that right that led generations of our predecessors, those who built and defended Russia for centuries since the period of Ancient Rus, to victory.
Here in Novorossiya, [Pyotr] Rumyantsev, [Alexander] Suvorov and [Fyodor] Ushakov fought their battles, and Catherine the Great and [Grigory] Potyomkin founded new cities. Our grandfathers and great-grandfathers fought here to the bitter end during the Great Patriotic War.
We will always remember the heroes of the Russian Spring, those who refused to accept the neo-Nazi coup d’état in Ukraine in 2014, all those who died for the right to speak their native language, to preserve their culture, traditions and religion, and for the very right to live. We remember the soldiers of Donbass, the martyrs of the “Odessa Khatyn,” the victims of inhuman terrorist attacks carried out by the Kiev regime. We commemorate volunteers and militiamen, civilians, children, women, senior citizens, Russians, Ukrainians, people of various nationalities; popular leader of Donetsk Alexander Zakharchenko; military commanders Arsen Pavlov and Vladimir Zhoga, Olga Kochura and Alexei Mozgovoy; prosecutor of the Lugansk Republic Sergei Gorenko; paratrooper Nurmagomed Gadzhimagomedov and all our soldiers and officers who died a hero’s death during the special military operation. They are heroes. (Applause.) Heroes of great Russia. Please join me in a minute of silence to honour their memory.
Meeting on socioeconomic support for regions. The President held a meeting, via videoconference, on socioeconomic support for the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.

The media are uninformed and lack any real context
What is the context? The US installed their own puppet government in Ukraine in 2014. Since that time, Ukraine has been shelling and murdering its own citizens in the Donbas for eight years which are mostly ethnic Russians. For five days before the Russian incursion this year, Zelensky and the Azov Battalion were shelling the Donbas non-stop and murdering civilians in the Donbas. This is why the break-away countries —Donetsk and Luhansk— are asking for Putin’s help.
There is no evidence of “Russian shelling of a nuclear power plant” There was a training facility building that was hit but we do not know who hit it. Also this nuclear facility is designed to take a direct missile attack. It is bad journalism to assume this was a Russian attack when there was no evidence. If Russia intended on attacking this facility, it would have been leveled to the ground. BTW, There is plenty of evidence that Ukrainian forces –not Russian– hit the building near the nuclear facility. As to motive: there would be no upside for Russia to have a major release of radioactive contamination, while there is plenty of motive for Zelensky and his handlers in the West to use this for propaganda purposes against the Russian incursion — which of course they did with no evidence.
More context…
Putin did not invade Crimea. There was no invasion. Crimea voted 97% to re-associate with Russia to gain protection from the neo-Nazis backed by the US and NATO after the US State Department removed the legitimately elected government in Ukraine in a bloody putsch using their tried and true Operation Gladio techniques called the strategy of tension in 2014. George Soros is even on tape bragging about helping the CIA do this. We have copies of documents where Pierre Omidyar helped in this operation. Pierre is another multi billionaire globalist and founder of eBay and First Look Media. Pierre also bought PayPal in 2002 and stopped all funding to Julian Assange’s WikiLeaks.
Why are there real Nazis in Ukraine?
• Stalin starved some 10 million Ukrainians during the Holodomor (1932 – 1933)
• Anti-communist and nationalist Hitler stupidly invaded Communist Russia called Operation Barbarossa in 1941.
• The Ukrainians – remembering Stalin’s Holodomor in 1932—assisted Hitler in his failed attempt to squash the communist Soviet Union led by Stalin.
• So, to this day many Ukrainians hate Russia and some are neo-Nazis.
• The US State department used this historical division to execute its well-oiled operation Gladio in 2014 to install an anti-Russian puppet government which hated ethnic Russians living in Ukraine. They outlawed the Russian language and started attacking and killing the mostly Russian speaking people in the Donbas area (Donetsk and Luhansk) killing some 10K innocent men, women and children.
• These neo-Nazis were installed and funded by the USA.
Russian legitimate interest in Ukraine
• Why is Ukraine important to Russia? Russia has a 1,426.07 mi border with Ukraine and is traditionally known as the bread basket of Russia.
• Why is Crimea and Sevastopol important to Russia? Since the city’s founding in 1783 it has been a major base for Russia’s Black Sea Fleet. The Black Sea is Russia’s only warm water port providing access to the Mediterranean Sea. Think strategic. The US envisioned taking this away from Russia.
• Why is Putin pissed at NATO? Because the US gave Russia assurances that NATO would not move one inch further East. The US and NATO lied. They not only moved an inch they moved 800 miles and are now surrounding Russia with offensive military installations. The US has been pouring billions in arms into Ukraine using its own installed puppet government.
NOTE:U.S. Secretary of State James Baker’s famous “not one inch eastward” assurance about NATO expansion in his meeting with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev on February 9, 1990, was part of a cascade of assurances about Soviet security given by Western leaders to Gorbachev and other Soviet officials throughout the process of German unification in 1990 and on into 1991, according to declassified U.S., Soviet, German, British and French documents posted today by the National Security Archive at George Washington University. https://mltoday.com/new-document-us-promised-not-to-e..
So now let’s talk about why Putin initiated an incursion into Ukraine.
Minsk agreements – were a series of international agreements which sought to end the war in Donbas region of Ukraine.
Ukraine and the US refused to abide by this agreement or even discuss it. Why? Because the US wanted to orchestrate a war.
Putin warned NATO and the US not to make Ukraine another NATO outpost because this would threaten Russia security. The US ignored Putin and gave him the finger.
US murdering ethnic Russians by proxy using its installed government in Ukraine.
Nord Stream 2: 1,230 km (767 mile) pipeline from Russia to Europe. Russia had their doubts about building a second pipeline, but Germany desperately needed this energy after shutting down its nuclear powerplants and insisted on building this pipeline. Russia really didn’t need Nord Stream 2 to sell their Gas since China is also in great need for Russian energy. Russia gave in and agreed to the pipeline thinking I’m sure this would provide more influence over Europe. Now, Germany –against their will and better interest– has delayed the certification of this pipeline under pressure from the USA.

“NO EXTENSION OF NATO’S JURISDICTION FOR FORCES OF NATO ONE INCH TO THE EAST of a unified Germany” – US Secretary of State Baker to Gorbachev, 1990.
Declassified documents show security assurances against NATO expansion to Soviet leaders from Baker, Bush, Genscher, Kohl, Gates, Mitterrand, Thatcher, Hurd, Major, and Woerner
“U.S. Secretary of State James Baker’s famous “not one inch eastward” assurance about NATO expansion in his meeting with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev on February 9, 1990, was part of a cascade of assurances about Soviet security given by Western leaders to Gorbachev and other Soviet officials throughout the process of German unification in 1990 and on into 1991, according to declassified U.S., Soviet, German, British and French documents posted today by the National Security Archive at George Washington University
The documents show that multiple national leaders were considering and rejecting Central and Eastern European membership in NATO as of early 1990 and through 1991, that discussions of NATO in the context of German unification negotiations in 1990 were not at all narrowly limited to the status of East German territory, and that subsequent Soviet and Russian complaints about being misled about NATO expansion were founded in written contemporaneous memcons and telcons at the highest levels.
The documents reinforce former CIA Director Robert Gates’s criticism of “pressing ahead with expansion of NATO eastward [in the 1990s], when Gorbachev and others were led to believe that wouldn’t happen.”
The first concrete assurances by Western leaders on NATO began on January 31, 1990, when West German Foreign Minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher opened the bidding with a major public speech at Tutzing, in Bavaria, on German unification. The U.S. Embassy in Bonn (see Document 1) informed Washington that Genscher made clear “that the changes in Eastern Europe and the German unification process must not lead to an ‘impairment of Soviet security interests.’ Therefore, NATO should rule out an ‘expansion of its territory towards the east, i.e. moving it closer to the Soviet borders.’” The Bonn cable also noted Genscher’s proposal to leave the East German territory out of NATO military structures even in a unified Germany in NATO.
This latter idea of special status for the GDR territory was codified in the final German unification treaty signed on September 12, 1990, by the Two-Plus-Four foreign ministers (see Document 25). The former idea about “closer to the Soviet borders” is written down not in treaties but in multiple memoranda of conversation between the Soviets and the highest-level Western interlocutors (Genscher, Kohl, Baker, Gates, Bush, Mitterrand, Thatcher, Major, Woerner, and others) offering assurances throughout 1990 and into 1991 about protecting Soviet security interests and including the USSR in new European security structures. The two issues were related but not the same. Subsequent analysis sometimes conflated the two and argued that the discussion did not involve all of Europe. The documents published below show clearly that it did.
The “Tutzing formula” immediately became the center of a flurry of important diplomatic discussions over the next 10 days in 1990, leading to the crucial February 10, 1990, meeting in Moscow between Kohl and Gorbachev when the West German leader achieved Soviet assent in principle to German unification in NATO, as long as NATO did not expand to the east. The Soviets would need much more time to work with their domestic opinion (and financial aid from the West Germans) before formally signing the deal in September 1990.
As late as March 1991, according to the diary of the British ambassador to Moscow, British Prime Minister John Major personally assured Gorbachev, “We are not talking about the strengthening of NATO.”

The World Bank’s Psychological Operations by Mike Benz
In today’s information war, it can be difficult to tell the difference between reality and propaganda — especially concerning matters in the grand game of geopolitics. This is manifestly true when the propaganda strokes existing beliefs widely held.
Amazingly, many otherwise intelligent, well-educated podcasters, pontificators, commentators and pundits from the alt media confirm their bias when they pick their favorite propaganda spewing from the MSM, and then promote these rumors as fact. Our friends in the alt media frequently have little to no knowledge on the particular subject, yet exhibit no restraint in echoing these false stories gathered from the same media they claim to hold in contempt.
If you care to be a bit more discerning, it might pay to seek out a counter narrative based on evidence not speculation. I present here for your review and edification the following excellent article: China Dystopia Psyop Part II | How is the sausage made?
More outstanding, insightful evidence-based articles can be found on the Main Page here: Austrian China
Note: You may think this to be a minor detail, but when accumulated over time, these psyops can and have presaged major wars; and at the least, are indicative of larger agendas that may be missed. Another psyop is currently being run against Putin and Ukraine. Your mind is the battlefield and they are softening you up.
