The $1 Billion Bill for a War We Didn't Vote For
While FIFA was saving Messi's Ass, Trump Bombed Iran Again
You wont see this on your TV’s in America but here’s what we’re seeing here… Iran s wrecking the US.
Trump attacked Iran again, and Iran responded by shooting down a US MQ-9 Reaper drone, one of many in this illegal war.
We see these massive headlines flash across our screens every single day, but what do they actually mean for you and me? Let’s look past the slick media titles and talk about the real-world math.
When a single MQ-9 Reaper drone gets dropped, it means your tax dollars just vanished to pay for another $35 million piece of military hardware. And for what? To fuel an illegal war.
If that isn't staggering enough, this single loss pushes the total cost of taxpayer-funded equipment losses in this conflict to over $1 billion.
Let that number sink in. $1,000,000,000.
Billions of dollars pulled straight out of public funds to finance destruction abroad, while communities at home are left holding the bill. It is unfucking believable.
Moving Beyond the Social Media Feed
If you stumbled across my videos on Instagram or TikTok, and you’re now getting my emails I just want to thank you! I never thought I would be travelling the world as an activist trying to fight for humanity and I’m in awe every day that enough of you care what I’m doing and are supporting my work. I’m leaving Egypt soon and I’m upping my efforts.
If you are tired of corporate media narratives and want a raw, independent perspective on global politics, history, and culture, you're in the right place. You can dive into my featured series, Understanding Islam—written from my perspective as an agnostic atheist living and writing right here in the Middle East.
Support Independent Storytelling
To keep this work entirely independent and free from corporate sponsorship, I rely entirely on readers like you. Right now, your support is more critical than ever: I am currently planning an independent investigative storytelling mission to Iran.
When I pull this off, I will be bringing gritty, real-time news and interviews directly to you—documenting local life, hitting the universities, and showing you the reality on the ground that the evening news completely ignores.
Here is how you can back this mission and support my mission today:
Grab the Books: I currently have five books available on my website covering history, growth, and geopolitics.
Pay What You Want: You can purchase any of them for $10 to directly support my content creation while I'm out here living in Egypt, or you can download them entirely for free. My ultimate goal is simply to get this information out to the world.
Contribute: If you download a book for free and find value in it, consider leaving a donation to help fund this upcoming reporting trip and support projects that actually help people.
Please forward this email to 10 friends and lets get more people involved! If you’re new here and someone forwarded this to you, welcome!
If you want to make sure you never miss a dispatch, a piece of investigative reporting, or a daily commentary, make sure to drop your email below to join the list. You'll get everything sent straight to your inbox.
Stay loud, stay skeptical, and let’s keep looking for the truth together.
