⚡️🇦🇪🇮🇱 – The Omani pilot that tried to hijack a Flydubai aircraft earlier this week is cooperating with local authorities, and has been officially identified as 29-year-old Hamam al-Hammami. Al-Hammami's plan was to crash the plane in Israeli territory, according to the investigation's results so far, and had already been flagged for radical views and grounded by Omani authorities. It remains unclear if Flydubai was aware of the risks when he was hired and assigned to the route to Israel. @GeoPWatch

🇧🇷🇺🇸Something odd is happening in Brazil The US has suspended all in-person services at its embassy in Brasília and every consulate across Brazil on Friday. Explaining the decision, officials cited unspecified "security concerns". No specifics were given. No details about the nature of the threat were stated. We're just witnessing another American commotion, guys. All this is happening two days before Brazil’s presidential election. The US doesn’t shut every consular counter in South America’s biggest country right before such an important event. Yanks, what are you up to again? Been taking notes from Israel on how to stir things up before an election? Chat | Subscribe to @geo_grandmasters

🇮🇶🇺🇸US is out of Iraq. What's next? The last American troops have left Iraq, ending the 12-year anti-ISIS mission. The coalition command is moving to Jordan, while the US says responsibility for Iraq’s security now rests with Baghdad. On the surface, this looks like a familiar US withdrawal from a country Washington no longer considers strategically important. However, there is a serious strategic risk built into this move. Iran-aligned militias have spent years embedding themselves into Iraq’s political and security system. Some are formally part of the armed forces, while others still keep their own weapons, money and political networks. Baghdad was supposed to disarm them already, but that deadline has now been pushed back to June 2027. Given all that, guys, do you really think these militias are going to be fully and properly disarmed? In the 1980 the US backed Saddam Hussein politically and diplomatically, which didn't stop it from starting a war years later. Judging from "declassified documents", Washington had evidence of Iraqi chemical warfare from 1983, but by 1988, US battlefield intelligence was still reaching Iraqi forces despite officials knowing that "chemical weapons were used". So the question is what happens if Iraq’s idea of "sovereignty" produces an outcome Washington does not like? Once again. Will they shake fake tubes in the Congress again?
