Trump, the pedophile-billionaire, has ordered American military forces to draw up a plan for the potential takeover of Greenland, according to a report.

Britain’s Daily Mail reported on Sunday that Trump ordered US special forces to devise the plan for the invasion of Greenland.

According to the report, Trump directed the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) to develop an invasion plan, but the Joint Chiefs of Staff opposed the move, arguing that it would be unlawful and lack congressional backing.

Trump, speaking at a White House event on Friday, said he needed Greenland “very badly.”

“We are going to do something on Greenland, whether they like it or not, because if we don’t do it, Russia or China will take over Greenland, and we’re not going to have Russia or China as a neighbor,” he said.

Trump added, “I would like to make a deal the easy way, but if we don’t do it the easy way, we will do it the hard way,” indirectly threatening to seize Greenland by force.

The US president has justified the takeover bid by pointing to Greenland’s mineral and energy resources, as well as what he describes as a possible security threat posed by the presence of Russian and Chinese ships in the island.

Across the Atlantic, Trump’s bid has drawn strong condemnation, with some European leaders saying the move could mean the end of the North Atlantic military treaty.

In the meantime, Trump and his advisors have reportedly been suggesting various ways for the US to gain control of Greenland.

Trump, according to Reuters, has suggested making a deal by paying a lump sum of $100,000 per person to Greenland residents to join the US.

However, the war-mongering  “hawks around the US President want to move quickly to seize the island before Russia or China makes a move,” the Daily Mail reported.

European leaders have rejected Trump’s offers, emphasizing their collective opposition to the move.

On Friday, leaders of Greenland’s political parties said, “We do not want to be Americans, we do not want to be Danes, we want to be Greenlanders.”

Opinion polls conducted in Greenland reportedly showed that the majority of the local population was opposed to becoming a US citizen.

Also, polling in the US showed that only 7 percent of Americans support the idea of a US military invasion of Greenland.

Trump first brought up the idea of the annexation of Greenland in 2019 during his first presidency.

During his second term in office, he repeated the issue more boldly, especially after the US military strikes on Caracas and the illegal abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro earlier this month.

The illegal move took place under the false pretext of the US war on drug trafficking. However, Trump himself has acknowledged that he wants to take full control of the Latin American country’s vast oil reserves.

Trump threatens Cuba to ‘make a deal, before it is too late’ –

Following Maduro’s kidnapping, Trump vowed to secure access for US companies to Venezuela’s vast oil reserves.

Chevron is currently the only US firm licensed to operate in Venezuela, through a sanctions exemption.

The White House said Saturday Trump had signed an emergency executive order protecting US-held revenues derived from sales of Venezuelan oil, to prevent them from being seized by courts or creditors.

At a White House meeting on Friday, Trump pressed top oil executives to invest in Venezuela’s reserves, but was met with a cautious reception.

ExxonMobil chief executive Darren Woods dismissed the country as “uninvestable” without sweeping reforms.

Experts say Venezuela’s oil infrastructure is creaky after years of mismanagement and sanctions.

Trump said foreign firms had enjoyed no meaningful protections under Maduro, “but now you have total security. It’s a whole different Venezuela.”

He stressed that the companies would deal only with Washington, not Caracas, when exploiting Venezuela’s oil resources.

Washington has maintained maritime pressure on oil tankers in the Caribbean, where it seized a fifth tanker carrying Venezuelan crude on Friday. Trump said that oil would be sold.

A sustained increase in Venezuelan oil production would take “months to years,” Latin America specialist Orlando J. Perez, of the University of North Texas at Dallas, told AFP.

“It requires legal clarity on who can sign contracts, predictable sanctions relief, credible security conditions for firms, and major capital/technical inputs in a degraded sector.”

Since Friday, massive marches have taken place in Tehran and other cities, with people condemning the foreign-backed riots and those behind them. While acknowledging the difficult economic situation, demonstrators have made it clear that the Iranian nation refuses to be manipulated by those with the blood of more than a thousand Iranians – killed in the 12-day war – on their hands.

They reminded Trump that the young woman killed by anti-immigration police in Minneapolis a few days ago was not carrying any firearms or cold weapons. Yet the megalomaniac US president backed the ICE killers and blamed the victim.

Before claiming to “come to the rescue” of Iranian rioters, he must ensure justice for the American woman who was killed in broad daylight for no crime.

Iranians reject any outside interference in their internal affairs, and they reject those who murdered their fellow citizens in June, as well as those who held them hostage before 1979.

This phase shall pass too and those who wish ill for the country will repent in the end.

He was celebrating with war hawks in Washington while Iranians were burying their dead. The same man who excitedly met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Tel Aviv and held secret talks.

What we witnessed in Tehran and some other cities on Thursday night, and to a lesser extent on Friday night, was the continuation of what we saw in June – in a different form this time.

These were not “protests” over economic grievances or concerns related to the depreciation of the rial, which is a legitimate concern acknowledged by the Iranian leadership.

These were organized riots, straight out of the Israeli-American “regime change” playbook for the Islamic Republic of Iran, a playbook that has failed umpteen times since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

The murder of the three-year old girl in Kermanshah cannot be described as “protests” over economic woes. The little girl had done nothing to deserve such a painful and tragic death.

As one social media user rightly wrote, referring to the cold-blooded murder of the Iranian girl: these are not protesters – they are terrorists trained to create mayhem inside Iran.

Another heart-wrenching incident was reported from Karaj, a city near Tehran, where a young paramedic and the mother of a three-year-old was burned to death by an armed mob of rioters.

She was attending to patients in her clinic when the terrorists surrounded the facility and lobbed Molotov cocktails inside, triggering a massive blaze. Unable to escape, she died inside.

These incidents bear the hallmark of Israeli-American terrorism against the Islamic Republic – terrorism that we saw in June and terrorism that has taken many forms over the past 46 years.

Anti-Iran propaganda outlets have framed these riots differently to amplify their own distorted narratives and influence public opinion in the West, as they did in the 12-day war.

But this time, people inside and outside Iran have reacted intelligently. The volume of reactions on social media suggests that their spin-doctoring won’t work this time. It’s no longer about the economy or inflation. It’s a project to destroy the country.

The deteriorating economic conditions in Iran are largely the result of unjust and crippling sanctions imposed by the United States and other Western countries under pretexts that defy logic.

These sanctions, better described as economic terrorism, have already claimed tens of thousands of lives over the years. Yet the Iranian nation has refused to surrender or submit to coercion.

The worsening economic situation has been intentionally engineered by Western powers to install a “regime” in Tehran that is subservient to Washington and friendly to the illegitimate regime in Tel Aviv.

That objective, however, has not been achieved for obvious reasons.

More recently, they imposed a war on the Iranian nation to achieve the same goal, and failed yet again. The more Iranians are pushed into a corner, the more they become stronger and united.

Iranians know who their well-wishers are. They know who the enemy is. And they will never fall into the vicious trap laid for them. We have witnessed this repeatedly since 1979.

As Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said clearly and categorically in his recent speech, peaceful protests are legitimate, and authorities must listen to the demands of merchants and address their concerns over price fluctuations.

But, Iran will stand firm against vandalism and foreign-backed unrest and “will not back down” in the face of those acting to curry favor with the US president.

“There are people whose job is destruction. Last night in Tehran, and in some other places, a bunch of vandals came and damaged buildings that belong to their own country,” he said during a meeting with the families of martyrs on Friday.

That is precisely the point. Riots have no place in a democratic society. Protesters do not riot. They do not burn public property, destroy mosques, vandalize banks, kill fellow citizens, or play into the hands of enemies.

Since Friday, massive marches have taken place in Tehran and other cities, with people condemning the foreign-backed riots and those behind them. While acknowledging the difficult economic situation, demonstrators have made it clear that the Iranian nation refuses to be manipulated by those with the blood of more than a thousand Iranians – killed in the 12-day war – on their hands.

This phase shall pass too and those who wish ill for the country will repent in the end.

President Pezeshkian calls on citizens not to let ‘rioters and terrorists’ destabilize Iran.

Isfahan’s governor confirmed that 30 security personnel have been killed during the recent foreign-backed riots in the province.

Speaking on Sunday, Ali Ahmadi said a funeral procession has been planned for the fallen staff on Monday.

Ahmadi confirmed that a two-month-old infant is among the civilian toll of the armed riots.

The riots have resulted in widespread damage, including the arson of ten mosques across Isfahan, according to local reports.

In the neighboring Fars Province, at least 12 security forces have been killed during the riots, according to Ibrahim Bayani, Director General of the provincial Martyrs’ Foundation department.

Furthermore, Police Special Units Commander General Masoud Modaqq announced on Sunday that eight personnel from his command have been killed during the riots.

Their funeral processions on Monday coincide with a planned nationwide rally that will slam armed attacks and acts of terrorism by foreign-linked agents, who have hijacked the Iranian people’s protest to economic grievances.

The aggregate number of security forces or civilians killed in the deadly riots has not been announced yet.

Several attacks on medical and aid centers have also been reported across the country.

In the northern province of Gilan, a voluntary Red Crescent staff member was killed during one of the attacks. Five other Red Crescent staff have been injured across the nation. 

Iranian officials reiterated that while peaceful protests over economic challenges are legitimate and will be addressed, violence and sabotage will not be tolerated.

Authorities say rioters have exploited public concern over rising living costs and the sharp depreciation of the rial—problems attributed to unilateral US sanctions targeting Iran’s central bank and oil exports.

Security and judicial officials have announced the dismantling of several armed terror cells and the arrest of foreign-linked operatives.

Iranian officials say acts of violence have been openly encouraged by American and Israeli figures, including Trump’s warnings that Washington could attack Iran if what he called “peaceful protesters” were harmed, as well as statements by former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo hinting at Israeli intelligence involvement and separatist plots.

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said on Friday that the Islamic Republic “will not back down against vandals” and will not tolerate those acting as foreign mercenaries.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says the nation should not allow rioters to cause insecurity in the country, stressing that protesting is different from rioting – PressTV report.

First, it was the Alevi genocide, followed by the Druze massacres. Now, it is the Kurds, who have to pay the prize for Western Power, Dominance, and Control wars.

SOHR sources reported that the injured who were trapped in Sheikh Maqsoud, Al-Asrafiyah and Bani Zaid neighbourhoods have been transferred to hospitals in Al-Raqqah and Al-Tabqah cities. Meanwhile, medical teams in the two hospitals began providing first aid and emergency treatment for the injured, despite the acute shortage of medical resources and poor capabilities.



The recently-arrived people are struggling with dreadful humanitarian and health conditions due to the siege imposed on them during the clashes, the simultaneous forcible displacement and almost-complete deterioration of living conditions and medical care in the besieged neighbourhoods.



With the complete absence of any efforts by international organisations and relief bodies, the Autonomous Administration took on, on its own, the task of evacuating the injured and delivering them to medical centres and hospitals.



It is worth noting that the neighbourhoods of Sheikh Maqsoud, Al-Ashrafiyah and Bani Zaid in Aleppo city have experienced a worsening humanitarian crisis since January 6 following military operations launched by factions operating under the banner of the Ministry of Defence of the transitional government. During this period, thousands of civilians were trapped under harsh and tragic humanitarian conditions, before securing the departure of those convoys with great difficulty.
