By Theodore Shoebat Some of my thoughts on what is happening in Lebanon:
By Theodore Shoebat Since October of 2019, the political atmosphere of Lebanon has been one of revolution. The Beirut explosion has been the tipping point in favor of anti-government emotions and revolt. Half of Beirut has been destroyed or damaged. 300,000 people are now homeless. Lebanon’s main grain silo was also destroyed, and that means […]
Last year, the news media was in an uproar over the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. We reported on this at Shoebat.com, where we said that the murder was a hit that came from Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS) and which was hastily covered up by the Turkish government, much to the anger of Erdogan […]
Tomi Lahren is a well-known “conservative” commentator at Fox News and other “conservative” outlets that due to her physical characteristics tends to attract the attention of men.

By Theodore Shoebat Some of my experiences with trad Catholics who are Nazis:
When it pertains to economic matters, I generally do not like to discuss stock prices because stocks are largely useless unless one is playing with large sums of money, and even with that, stocks always have been an “old boys” club where old, monied interests support each other for their benefit.

For those who have been paying attention to the economic numbers and the reports coming out from the US Department of Labor, various independent studies from non-profits, economic data produced by major banks, and the speculations of investors, one may recall that as early as April 2020 there were signs of not just the first […]
Saudi Arabia has been in and out of the news cycle with the exception of discussion about Mecca and the spread of COVID-19. But while the world is worried about the spread of disease, financial instability, and the growing problems of nationalism in Europe, the Wall Street Journal reports that the Saudis have turned to […]
With the world financial markets in chaos and people seeking safe havens for investment, people are pursuing a variety of avenues for preserving their wealth amid unstable circumstances. One of these traditional venues is precious metals, which MarketWatch reports has seen a nearly 25% rise in the last week due to effects of COVID-19 and […]
By Theodore Shoebat The leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, said in the past that he wanted to use ammonium nitrate to attack Israel, the same chemical that caused the catastrophic explosion in Beirut. As we read in a report from the Jerusalem Post: Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah threatened in the past to destroy Israel by causing a massive […]
By Theodore Shoebat Lebanese officials knew that the ammonium nitrate that caused the explosion in Lebanon was in the Beirut port, yet nothing was done to remove the explosive material. There were a series of warnings made by two different Director Generals of Customs, warning about the presence of the ammonium nitrate. These warnings were made […]
It seems as though every election, when real issues are troubling the public and need to be discussed, there always appears a series of “side issues” that distract the public from any matter of real importance. This election cycle, while there are several matters drawing attention from the failing economy, the remilitarization of Germany, the […]
