Cost of Iran War Secretly Hits $100 Billion: China and Russia Look On While the US Consumes its Munitions Supply and Fiscal Bandwidth for Puppet Trumpstein's War to Enrich His Masters

By June 30, 2026, OMB Director Russel Vought revised the public figure only marginally to roughly USD30 billion (RM114 billion), a number independent institutions now treat as a politically managed floor rather than a comprehensive ceiling.

CSIS calculated a more granular USD34 billion to USD42 billion (RM129 billion to RM160 billion) range for Department of Defense costs, isolating munitions expenditure at approximately USD26.1 billion (RM99 billion), reflecting the extraordinary consumption of Tomahawk cruise missiles during the campaign’s opening days.

Popular Information’s 120-day tracker produced a starkly higher USD103 billion (RM391 billion) total, driven by USD46.7 billion (RM177 billion) in weapons alone, alarming planners already facing backlogs at Lockheed Martin and Raytheon.

Brown University’s tracker calculated USD113.3 billion (RM431 billion) across 108 days once deployment and sustainment costs were incorporated, while Harvard’s Linda Bilmes warned upfront costs alone could reach USD200 billion (RM760 billion), with lifetime costs potentially exceeding USD1 trillion.

While White Sheeple Celebrated Their Play Freedumb on July 4th, Over 40 Million Unified Iranians and Iraqis Vowed Revenge for the US Government's Unlawful, Unprovoked War at Martyred Leader's Funeral

The massive funeral processions held for martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in Iraq demonstrated the depth of ties between Iran and Iraq while sending a political message to the United States and its allies, according to an Iraqi political analyst.

Speaking to the Press TV website, Jumaa al-Atwani, a senior political analyst and director of Iraq's Horizon Center for Political and Strategic Studies, pointed to the messages of historic funeral procession held in Iraq on Wednesday for the martyred Leader. 

"The magnificent funeral of Imam Khamenei in Iraq and the participation of millions of Iraqi citizens not only showed the depth of unity and solidarity between the Iranian and Iraqi peoples, but also served as another missile and blow to the heart of global arrogance, led by the United States," he said.

The funeral ceremonies for the martyred Leader drew massive crowds across Iran and Iraq. Initial Iraqi media reports estimated that over ten million people took part in the processions in the holy cities of Najaf and Karbala, prompting a delay to the final stage of the funeral in the Iranian holy city of Mashhad.

Israelien Terrorcrats Use Drones to Murder People Attending a Funeral in Gaza

[the numbers here are reported by massa media - so they are probably fabricated, parroted mythematics obtained from government authorities] Multiple Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip have killed at least 14 Palestinians, more than half of them in a drone strike on a funeral procession.

Nine months into its so-called “ceasefire” with Hamas, Israel continues to violate it on a near-daily basis.

Eight people were killed when an Israeli strike targeted a gathering of civilians in the Al-Balata market area of Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza on Friday, Gaza’s civil defence agency and a hospital said.

At least 20 others were injured, the Al-Awda Hospital added.

Witnesses said the drone targeted Palestinian mourners gathered outside the Ahmad Yassin Mosque as they waited to begin a funeral procession for a Palestinian killed in a separate attack earlier in the day in the same area. [MORE]

Barbaric West Bank "Settlers" Threatened Rep. Ro Khanna's Life by Pointing Guns at Him at the Site of a School Destroyed by IsrAeliens. Massa Media Downplays Incident

US Representative Ro Khanna (D – CA) reports that he was held at gunpoint for more than an hour earlier this week during his visit to the occupied West Bank when Israeli settlers confronted his entourage as he toured a destroyed Palestinian village.

“We were at a village that Israeli settlers had destroyed, they had destroyed the school, they had destroyed that village, and we were just looking at it,” Khanna said. “And these hoodlums come in with machine guns – M4, an American-made machine gun – and they detain us. They block off the road.”

The incident took place at the destroyed village of Khirbet Zanuta, a village near Hebron that was reported “ethnically cleansed” by settlers in 2023. Khanna reported that the settler group summoned the IDF and that the IDF sided with the settlers over the Americans. [MORE]

If You Believe Statements Made by Israeli and US Authorities then You're a Plaything in the Hands of Massa Media; Activists launch the “They Lied to You” Campaign b/c Israel's Genocide Never Stopped

Activists have launched a digital campaign under the hashtag “They Lied to You” to draw renewed global attention to the ongoing suffering in the Gaza Strip, Anadolu reported.

The organizers stressed that reduced international media coverage of events in Gaza does not indicate that the war has ended or that the suffering of Palestinians in the territory has stopped.

Launched in Arabic and English on July 16, the campaign brought together journalists, humanitarian workers, children from Gaza, and Arab and international supporters.

Through videos and written messages, participants sought to highlight the continued Israeli killing of Palestinians and the humanitarian consequences of starvation, forcible displacement, and disease.

The campaign aimed to challenge the widespread perception that the ceasefire agreement that has been in place since Oct. 10, 2025, brought an end to the genocide and the humanitarian crisis. [MORE]

'No obligation to provide Water': Barbaric Israelis are Withholding water from Jordan

Israel has refused to renew its water agreement with Jordan in violation of the peace treaty between the two countries, Israel's public broadcaster, Kan 11 reported on Monday.

According to the report, Israel has not yet signed on the renewal of the extended water supply agreement with Jordan, with pressure building on the Hashemite Kingdom due to its dependency on Israeli water.

"The issue of water is very important to us, and it is also part of the peace agreement," a Jordanian official told Kan 11, indicating his country may respond to the Israeli delay.

Amman, the report said, is afraid that Israel is using the water supply agreement as a bargaining chip in its relations with the kingdom.

In March, Kan 11 reported that Jordan's King Abdullah II conditioned a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on solving issues relating to water supply and the Palestinians. [MORE]

Amnesty Calls for War Crimes Probe After Israel ‘Obliterated Entire Families’ in Lebanon

Amnesty International on Thursday demanded a war crimes investigation into Israeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon, which the human rights watchdog described as “wiping out families.”

The strikes in question took place in March and killed hundreds of civilians, including many children, in neighborhoods in the cities of Tyre, Saida, and Nabatieh.

Amnesty said it has gathered enough evidence to reasonably conclude that Israeli forces violated international law by failing to distinguish between civilian and military targets when conducting the campaign.

The human rights group said it reached these conclusions after conducting more than a dozen on-the-ground interviews with survivors, relatives of victims, and paramedics who were called to the scene after the strikes. Additionally, the group analyzed satellite photos along with videos of the strikes posted on social media. [MORE]

Barbaric Israel Authorities Advance Plan to Use Crocodiles to Stop Palestinian "Prisoners" [slaves] from Escaping "Detention Compound" [dungeon/gender annihilation center]

The Israeli government has stripped Nile crocodiles of their protected status, paving the way for a proposal to build a detention facility for Palestinians surrounded by the reptiles, Israeli media reported on Thursday.

Environment Minister Idit Silman signed a decree on Wednesday reclassifying Nile crocodiles as a "specially managed wild animal" - a new legal category that allows the state to keep the animals for security purposes, according to Israeli news site Ynet.

In the decree, Silman said Israel's security forces could now keep crocodiles under specific conditions.

According to Ynet, the move went against the advice of the Environment Ministry's legal adviser and environmental groups.

The decision follows months of pressure from National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, who in December proposed building a prison encircled by crocodiles. [MORE]

Mamdani Fake Claims He May Arrest Wanted Terrorcrat Benjamin Netanyahu in NYC [in reality NYPD are Too Preoccupied with Destroying the Freedoms of Law Abiding Black People to Arrest Real Criminals]

NYPD officers too often stop Black and Hispanic drivers without justification, a lawsuit filed by the nyclu. The NYCLU stated that while Blacks and Hispanics make up 22% and 23% of the driving population in the city, they were stopped at a higher rate, with Blacks making up 32% of stops and Hispanics 30%. White drivers were behind the wheel in 23% of the stops, despite making up 38% of drivers.

When enforcement action was taken — such as a summons issued or an arrest made — the racial disparities were even starker, the NYCLU says. Blacks and Hispanics made up 90% of the arrests, with Blacks 10 times more likely to be searched than whites, and Hispanics six times more likely than whites to be searched. [MORE]

New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani has said he is exploring the legal possibility of arresting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he travels to the city for the UN General Assembly in September.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu in November 2024 over alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza, including “starvation as a method of warfare” and “other inhumane acts.”

Mamdani, who has characterized Israel’s military campaign in Gaza as genocide, vowed during his mayoral campaign last year to arrest Netanyahu if he visited New York City. During an episode of The New York Times’ The Interview podcast that aired on Saturday, the mayor was asked whether he still intended to fulfill that pledge.

“I believe that Prime Minister Netanyahu belongs in The Hague,” he responded, referring to the seat of the ICC, where those accused of major international crimes are tried. “He’s a war criminal who has been charged by the International Criminal Court, and what you will find is that is an opinion that is held by many, purely because of what his actions have wrought over these last many years.”

Accredited representatives of member states are generally granted diplomatic immunity while on official UN visits, but Mamdani said he was in “an active conversation” with the city’s Law Department about potential legal options. [MORE]

Trumpstein's Golden Retriever, Marco Rubio, Announces the US Government's Intention to Dismantle the International Criminal Court

The US will launch a diplomatic campaign aimed at dismantling the International Criminal Court, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Monday.

In an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal, Rubio wrote that the US would work alongside allied governments to take the Court apart “brick by brick, if necessary,” using all tools at the government’s disposal. He said the campaign’s message to other governments would be a choice of “sovereign states over globalism,” and pledged that the administration would protect US service members from ICC jurisdiction.

Because the Court is a treaty body that only its member states can dissolve, the US lacks the authority to “dismantle” it. The op-ed does not detail specific measures, but a State Department official told Reuters that options under consideration include travel bans, visa revocations, expanded sanctions against the Court and affiliated entities, and diplomatic pressure on member states to withdraw. The official said countries that rely on US security assistance and decline to reject the Court’s authority over Americans are likely to face increased scrutiny. [MORE]

Head of Palestinian-American non-profit Wins Lawsuit Against Federal Customs Cops Who Kept Seizing His Phone for No Valid Reason at BWI Airport

A US federal judge this week ruled in favour of a prominent Palestinian-American academic and activist in a decision that deemed the search and seizure of his phones by customs officers to be illegal.

Osama Abu Irshaid, the executive director of American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), had his phones taken from him and searched at Washington Dulles International Airport on two occasions in 2024, upon his return from trips to the Middle East. 

On Wednesday, the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia determined that Abu Irshaid was indeed entitled to his Fourth Amendment claim, because "the evidence marshaled by Defendants... does not rise to the level of reasonable suspicion" of ongoing criminal activity, the decision read. 

The Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures and requires that warrants be issued by a judge based on probable cause.

"Not only is this a victory for Dr Abu Irshaid, but a victory for the pro-Palestine movement overall. For decades, allies who support Palestinian human rights have been systematically targeted by the US government for daring to speak out against Apartheid Israel," AMP said in a statement following the ruling.

The defendants - in this case, the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers under the Department of Homeland Security - said they believed there was reason to search Abu Irshaid's devices, owing to a public letter sent to him by the Republican-led House Oversight Committee in May 2024. 

The committee accused AMP of "pro-Hamas propaganda" and "material support to terrorist organizations" and said it was opening an investigation into the group. [MORE]

Amid Increased Scrutiny, ICE Race Soldier Detention and Deportation Data Goes Dark

The shooting deaths of two immigrants at the hands of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in the past week have brought the Trump administration’s violent crackdown into sharp relief once again, triggering protests and calls for accountability. But the government has kept the total number of people caught up in enforcement efforts under wraps since April, angering conservatives and progressives alike.

Dozens of immigrants have died in ICE detention since Trump took office. In recent days, two people, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Joan Sebastian Guerrero, have been fatally shot by ICE agents. In a midterm election year, experts say the need for transparency is urgent. Voices on the political right want proof the president is delivering on his promise to deport millions of people, while others on the left want to know how much damage has been done in immigrant communities.

Feds sideline Texas officials in probe into ICE shooting of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, DA says

The district attorney in Harris County, Texas, said Wednesday that federal authorities have sidelined local officials from participating in an investigation into the fatal shooting of a Mexican man in Houston by an immigration officer.

District Attorney Sean Teare said in a social media post that his office typically conducts a “parallel investigation” into any death caused by law enforcement. But, he added, “Unfortunately at this time, federal authorities continue exclusively handling all aspects in this case.”

Teare, whose office oversees local criminal prosecutions, called on witnesses to come forward with their own accounts, including videos or photos, of the shooting of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, who was killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer during a traffic stop arrest on Tuesday.

Federal Judge Rules that a State Can't Prevent ICE Cops from Being Unaccountable to the Public: Vacates New Philadelphia Law that Prohibited ICE Race Cops from Concealing Their Faces and Badges

A US federal judge on Thursday prevented Philadelphia’s “ICE OUT” mandate from taking effect, holding that the law requiring Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to remove masks and display badges sidesteps the Constitution’s “clear mandate” that localities do to interfere with federal law enforcement.

In a lawsuit by the Department of Justice (DOJ) disputing the legality of the order, Trump-appointed Judge Chad Kenney’s ruling temporarily blocks the enforcement of the bill, which was set to go into effect on Tuesday, while the suit is pending. Kenney cited the Supremacy Clause in his order, emphasizing that no state has the power to impede upon, burden, or change the directives of federal agents operating according to constitutional laws enacted by Congress.

The contested Bill No. 260060 is part of a seven-bill legislative package introduced in January of this year to counteract “violent” federal immigration enforcement operations, protect civil rights, and strengthen Philadelphia’s “Welcoming City” policies. [MORE]

OH Cops Did Nothing for Over an Hour after Jennifer Wade was Found Unconscious on Concrete Floor in Cell. Cops Then Denied CPR to Black Woman, leading to Death in Cleveland Jail Run by Liberals

Correctional staff failed to start CPR the moment they discovered Jennifer Wade lifeless in her Cuyahoga County jail cell last year, state inspectors concluded in a review of the 41-year-old mother’s death.

It was the second such review. In the months after Wade’s death in February 2025, inspectors found that the jail staff acted appropriately. But they reopened their review after The Marshall Project - Cleveland reported on video evidence the county did not turn over to inspectors.

The officer-worn body camera videos showed that corrections staff admitted to leaving Wade alone on the concrete floor of her cell for hours before calling a nurse. A county report said employees believed she may have been pretending to be unconscious. Even after calling the nurse, more than 20 minutes elapsed before anyone began CPR.

In the state’s second review — which the county received earlier this month — inspectors concluded that correctional staff, which include MetroHealth nurses contracted by the county, had failed to start CPR immediately after determining that Wade was not breathing and that her heart had stopped.

The inspection also found that only three of the 12 county-employed corrections officers who responded were CPR trained, though the county later provided the state records showing that all 12 had completed CPR training through the American Red Cross. Still, none of the officers began chest compressions or assisted breathing.

Whether jail staff, even those trained to save lives, are required to act is unclear, with the language in the employee manual indicating officers should rely on their training but not explicitly saying they should start CPR. However, as part of their review, the inspectors required that the county submit a plan to improve its emergency response. [MORE] and [MORE]

The Journey Black Foundation Claims Video Shows Several SC Cops Punch a Handcuffed Black Man Multiple Times and Unleash a K-9 on His Groin Area.

The Journey Black Foundation is calling for an independent investigation into alleged excessive force during an arrest in Anderson County.

The foundation said it believes that Tavaris Suave Richardson was the victim of excessive force during his arrest.

The foundation said video footage reportedly shows Richardson handcuffed while being hit multiple times by several officers and subjected to a K-9 bite in the scrotal area while restrained on the ground.

The foundation said Richardson had visible bruises on his face which “raises concerns about the level of force used while he was handcuffed.”

The Anderson County Sheriff’s Office told FOX Carolina that it is aware of the press conference.

The sheriff’s office said it has been in contact with the family of Richardson, walking them through how to make a formal complaint against deputies about their disapproval.

The family has yet to file a complaint, according to the sheriff’s office.

As of Saturday, Richardson is being held at the Anderson County Detention Center on a $31,000 bond for resisting arrest, distribution of meth and manufacturing/distribution of drugs.

He also has a hold for the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office since he also has charges with them, according to deputies.

The foundation held the press conference at the Anderson County Sheriff’s Office on Saturday. [MORE]

Are People Demanding Public Video from Their Public Servants or Begging Their Public Masters for It? Wilmington Cops Keep Video of Kadir Skinner Secret: Crump Says Cops Shot Him in the Back as He Fled

Attorneys for the family of Kadir Skinner, the 19-year-old Black teenager who was shot in the back and killed by an officer with the Wilmington Police Department (WPD) last month, today (July 11) released videos showing the scene and officers’ treatment of the 19-year-old immediately following the shooting.

The case has sparked national outrage as Skinner’s family, local leaders and countless others have repeatedly called for WPD to release body camera video of the shooting. Those calls have only grown louder as police have refused to release the video. 

The videos, shot by witnesses, show Skinner clearly alive while on the ground handcuffed. Officers do not appear to provide him any kind of medical attention while the teenager is writhing on the pavement in pain and, instead, lift him up to put him in a police cruiser as onlookers shout, “He’s dying!” 

“The more we learn about this situation, the worse it gets,” said Daniels. “Kadir Skinner was dying before their very eyes and they treated him like some kind of thug. It’s time for the City of Wilmington and Wilmington Police Department to step up with accountability and transparency and release the body camera video.” [MORE]

Tennessee National Guard Race Soldiers Fatally Shot Tyrin Johnson in Front of Public Cameras, but the City Refuses to Release Video. An Activist Claims the Black Man was Murdered as He Fled

National guard soldiers on patrol in Memphis shot and killed a man that authorities in the Tennessee city said turned and pulled a gun on the troops during a chase.

The shooting took place at about 4am on Sunday as the soldiers responded to a report of gunfire.

The Tennessee national guard was deployed controversially by the state’s governor, Bill Lee, in October to support the federal push by Donald Trump, his fellow Republican, to tackle perceived crime surges in Democratic-run cities.

“For reasons under investigation, the situation escalated, resulting in two national guard soldiers firing upon Johnson, striking and killing him,” the TBI said in a statement.

It did not identify the soldiers involved and directed inquiries “to the respective department to answer as it sees fit”. [MORE]
