(The Daily Show) Did a secret "Stargate" in Iran cause Trump-Israel's war? What is Stargate 10?
The world has settled all its differences, and peace has broken out. But just when we were on the verge of celebrating a thousand years of sanity to come, Spain declares war on Argentina, threatening to rub their faces in the grass and to break Messi's body if necessary. Will Argentina, minus its Falkland Islands, put up with European imperialism, colonialism, and exploitation? It can only be decided on the field of mock battle before the audience of the world. And here we sit in the most cross-cultural city in the [Evil] Empire, Los Angeles, waiting to be amused, entertained, and delighted. RESULT: Having declared war on a European colony in the "New World," colonia powerhouse Spain beat the Latin upstart by the slightest margin possible, plunging the Americas into a funk and the EU into ecstatics. "There's always next year" won't work this time. A World Cup isn't that easy.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup final will be the last match of the 2026 World Cup, the 23rd edition of FIFA's competition for men's national soccer (association football) teams. The match is scheduled to be played at MetLife Stadium at the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey, near New York City, on July 19, 2026, and will see this country [England] go up against [France?]...

While the soccer World Cup is being played in France, two young Tibetan refugees arrive at a monastery (lamasery) boarding school in exile in India. Its atmosphere of serene contemplation is somewhat disrupted by soccer fever, the chief instigator being a young student, the soccer(association football) fanatic Orgyen. Prevented by various circumstances from seeing The Cup finals on television in a nearby village, Orgyen sets out to organize the rental of a TV set for the Buddhist monastery. All the quiet contemplatives become loud sports enthusiasts instead, whose behavior borders on worldly hooliganism.

Monty Python's "Philosophy Football" coming to FOX Sports?
Mind you, ancient Mexicans are the same people who gave the world chocolate or xocolatl (bitter cocoa water), which they called Theobroma cacao, "The food of the gods." Who were these celestial visitors or "gods," who pointed out the potent nutritional seeds and delicious flavor of the cacao fruit?
The first chocolate drink is believed to have been created at least 5,300 years ago, starting with the Mayo-Chinchipe culture in what is present-day Ecuador [3] and later consumed by the Maya around 2,500–3,000 years ago. A cocoa drink was an essential part of Mexico's Aztec culture by 1400 AD [4]. The drink was introduced by Mexico (New World) and became popular in Europe has undergone changes since. Until the 19th century, hot chocolate was used medicinally to treat ailments such as liver and stomach diseases. More
Amaranth (family Amaranthaceae) delivers complete protein, survives drought, and for centuries fed 20+ million people. Then in 1519, Spanish Conquistadors made growing it punishable by death in Mexico (Mesoamerica) and the Americas.
Amaranth contains 13-14% complete protein with all 9 essential amino acids, one of the very few vegan plant sources of a complete protein, along with quinoa.
Amaranth produces more usable protein per acre than cattle grazing and thrives in conditions where wheat dies.
The Aztecs mixed it with honey to create tzoalli—sacred dough shaped into gods, worshipped, and eaten for supreme nourishment.
To the European Spanish invaders, this was demonic and cannibalistic. To modern agriculture, it's a threat.
Donkeys (burros) and hairless dogs in the New World, natural helpers of humans
Heirloom seeds: DNA treasure
By 1970, amaranth had nearly gone extinct. Today it is sold as a $30-a-pound (lb) superfood in health food stores while wheat and corn—both harmful and incomplete proteins—dominate 90% of global grain production.
The amaranth ban ended, but the seed companies never brought it back. This is the story of how religion, colonial conquest, and industrial agriculture buried the most nutritious grain in the Americas.

The reincarnated Lama: The true story that defies logic
(Lei's Looking Glass) Nov. 27, 2025: Some stories challenge everything we think we know about life, death, and what comes after. Across Tibet and beyond, for over a thousand years, people have reported children who remember past lives, masters who choose their next rebirth, and signs that seem too specific to ignore. This episode explores one of the most astonishing cases in modern times — and the ancient system behind it. Whether you're skeptical or simply curious, this journey into reincarnation, destiny, and the mysteries of the human mind will stay with you long after the story ends. #reincarnation#leislookingglass
According to Antonio Pigafetta [7], one of the Ferdinand Magellan expedition's few survivors and its published chronicler, Magellan bestowed the name Patagão (or Patagón) on the GIANT inhabitants they encountered there.
Although Pigafetta's account does not describe how this name came about, subsequent popular interpretations gave credence to a derivation meaning "land of the big feet."
However, this etymology is questionable. The term might be derived from an actual character name, "Patagón," a savage creature confronted by Primaleón of Greece, the hero in the homonymous Spanish chivalry novel (knight-errantry tale) by Francisco Vázquez [63].
This book, published in 1512, was the sequel of the romance Palmerín de Oliva; it was much in vogue at the time and a favorite reading of Magellan.
Magellan's perception of the natives, dressed in skins and eating raw meat, may have recalled the uncivilized Patagón in Vázquez's book.
European meets American giants
Novelist and travel writer Bruce Chatwin suggests etymological roots of both Patagon and Patagonia in his book, In Patagonia[64], noting a tenuous similarity between "Patagon" and the Greek word παταγος, which means "a roaring" or "gnashing of teeth."
(In his chronicle, Pigafetta describes the Patagonians as "roaring like bulls"). More

Super Zionist Jew
(The Jewish Heritage Project) Sept. 8, 2019: Earl Tucker explains how it may be that Christopher Columbus (Chris CohenColón) was actually a secret Jew. The 1492 expulsion from Spain took place during the time of the Jewish Tisha B'Av. This is an amazing talk using the reliable methods of the modern social sciences, statistics, and a curious number (29 variables) of "coincidences"!
Cristóbal Colón is his Spanish language (Latin, Italian) name for the Italian Jewish (Converso) explorer Christopher Columbus (1451–1506)
Stolen symbol bathed in blood
The great car manufacturer Henry Ford, a famous antisemite, wrote The International Jew. But Columbus' own hand suggests how Jewish he was: "On the day the Jews were expelled from Spain, I set out for the New World" (quoted from the journal of his trip to "America"). The new DNA evidence shows his Jewish ancestry, likely forced to convert to Catholicism, a Marrano, a Crypto-Jew, not a real convert.
In 2006, Dr. Frank C. Arnett, MD, and historian Charles Merrill, published a paper in The American Journal of the Medical Sciences proposing that Christopher Columbus had an illness and in the same scientific, peer-reviewed paper, historian Merrill made the case that Columbus was the son of Catalans and his mother possibly a member of a prominent converso (converted Jew) family [213].

"PIGS" (Marranos) were Conversos, Crypto-Jews
Prominent Jews do so much for the Deep State
Those Jews targeted and forced by the Spanish Crown had no choice but to convert to Catholicism/Christianity. They had to either leave the Kingdom of Spain, while the Crown seized their property and money and gave them no support to leave, or be murdered either for not showing complete loyalty to Christianity or for leaving Spain and coming back showing that they were traitors to the Spanish Crown [3][4].

In the Tlayócoc cave in Mexico, traces of a mysterious civilization from over 500 years ago have been discovered.
This find is the result of a cartographic expedition led by Yekaterina Katiya Pavlova and Adrián Beltrán Dimas.
During the expedition in the Tlayócoc cave, Yekaterina Katiya Pavlova and local guide Adrián Beltrán Dimas came across a hidden chamber. There, they found items that may indicate the existence of a lost civilization from more than 500 years ago. This discovery has sparked the interest of scientists from around the world.
Among the finds were shell bracelets, a large snail shell, and fragments of stone disks resembling pyrite mirrors. According to INAH (the Mexican National Institute of Anthropology and History), these objects may have been used for ritual purposes.
Archeologists discovered symbols on them that could be related to ancient beliefs.
Miguel Perez, an INAH archeologist, emphasizes that the discovery is of great importance for understanding the culture and symbolism of pre-Hispanic (before Spanish conquest) societies that inhabited the Sierra de Guerrero.
The findings may help interpret their cosmology and rituals related to fertility and creation.
History of the Sierra de Guerrero region
The Sierra de Guerrero region, where the discovery was made, was inhabited by the Tlacotepehaus ethnic group during the post-classic period, between 950 and 1521 AD. The area was abandoned due to extreme weather conditions, which made life difficult for its inhabitants.
Symbolism and significance of the artifacts
Cuauhtemoc Reyes Alvarez from INAH suggests that the symbols on the bracelets may be related to cosmology concerning creation and fertility.
Caves might have been perceived as portals to the underworld or sacred spaces connected with divinity.

Discover the three pillars of Aztec genius in Tenochtitlán
Internal empires flourished before Spain entered
(LatinoAméricaAyer) Auto dubbed. How did the Aztecs (early Mexicans) build a metropolis for 200,000 people on a hostile lake in what is now Mexico City? The answer isn't luck or magic, but one of history's greatest engineering feats. In this documentary, we uncover the incredible hydraulic technology that enabled the construction of Tenochtitlán (the foundation of Mexico City) and changed the course of civilization in Mesoamerica, which is part of North America though no one likes to say so).
Matrilineal Native tribes?
Discover the three pillars of their genius:
Chinampas: The artificial islands that created land out of thin air and fueled an empire.
