Iran has officially declared a NOTAM (notice to air missions) from November 4 at 2:30 am until November 6 at 6:30 pm. Air travel restrictions confirmed. It appears the hyper-sonics are ready to hit Israel. | The longer Iran lets those missiles remain out in the open, the longer they are vulnerable to pre-emptive attack by Israel and the U.S. So Logic dictates that the launches would begin right at the NOTAM time, which is 2:30 AM in Iran, and 7:00 PM (Tomorrow, Sunday) on the US East Coast...Word on Intel Circuits is claiming that Iran has already pre-positioned one-thousand, five-hundred (1,500) missiles for launch, but later, more recent Intel is now saying the total number of missiles distributed from storage is about four-thousand (~4,000.). Israel has said "If Iran attacks, they will get double in return." It is not known if Israel has such ballistic missile resources; generally the Israelis rely on aircraft to attack other countries. ■ But the US has sent ENORMOUS military resources into the region, and it is not hard to imagine immediate US involvement, even though Congress has not declared war. Iran has also made very clear that if the US participates in attacking Iran, ALL US BASES in the Middle East will come under Iranian missile attack.

Western leaders do not fully appreciate Russia’s readiness to deploy nuclear weapons to protect itself, Dmitry Medvedev told RT | Washington and its allies mistakenly believe that Russia will never cross the line of using nuclear weapons, former President Dmitry Medvedev stated in an exclusive interview with RT on Saturday. ■ Medvedev, who currently serves as deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, suggested that current Western leaders are not as forward-thinking as their predecessors and fail to take into account Russia’s willingness to defend its existence using all means at its disposal.

💬 ”They have made a miscalculation, since they are not of the brightest kind… For some reason they think that Russians will never cross a certain line. They are wrong. If it comes down to the existence of our state, as the president of our country has repeatedly said… we will simply have no choice.” [...] "The political class is degenerating, technocrats are coming in and they cannot understand how politics function. This is a disaster.”

He stressed that any person who serves as president of a nuclear-armed state takes on the obligation to defend their country “to the last man,” and suggested that current Western leaders such as French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz “lack the acumen and subtlety of mind” of their predecessors.

The pictures of the smiling toddlers on the wall somehow survived. Most everything else in the daycare — the cradles, the highchairs, the toys — was ruined when a crushing wall of water swept through Paiporta, turning the Valencia municipality of 30,000 into the likely epicenter of Spain's deadliest natural disaster in living memory. | Authorities say at least 62 people died in Paiporta, of the 211 confirmed deaths from flash floods in Spain on Tuesday and Wednesday. The majority of those deaths happened in the eastern region of Valencia, and local media have labeled Paiporta the “ground zero” of the floods. ■ Four days have passed since the tsunami-like floods swept through the southern outskirts of Valencia city, covering many communities with sticky, thick mud. The clean-up task ahead remains gargantuan, and the hunt for bodies continues. ■ Many streets in Paiporta remain impassable to all vehicles but bulldozers, stacked as they are with piles of sodden furniture and household items and countless wrecked cars. ■ Every foot is caked with mud. Some people wield poles to steady their steps as if walking these streets is a hike through a marsh.
