We certainly need to pray for this war to end in peace . And it’s probably true that it’s not going well for the west . These wars are so foolish no matter how I look at it . If the Lord was leading Israel he certainly would not need USA and others help . Less is more with God if you read the history of Israel in the OT .

Well we don't need to guess, the Word tells us. Israel will eventually go it alone, as far as help from other countries and God will be the victor.

The Good news -- They said the war with Iran will be over this weekend.

The Bad news -- they said that a few weeks ago.
 
Deo gratias, Anglia, redde pro victoria! Praise Jesus forever!



AI Overview

Based on early 2026 local election results, the Labour Party has lost roughly 53% to 66% of the council seats it was defending, with some early reports indicating over 250 seats lost and potential for over 1,000 total losses. These losses, particularly to Reform UK in heartland areas, constitute one of the worst results for a new prime minister on record.
 
Forget "severe recession" we are now talking about the greatest depression. CIA analysis says Iran can last 3 months with the Straight closed before the situation becomes more severe for them.


One plausible explanation for this is that they are loading up for a ground invasion and this is laying the groundwork for the justification. They may also be using this leaked report to twist arms of other nations to help them with this invasion.
 
(The wicked are crushed down, shame to them for all the rest of history for turning against God and man alike, salvation to the people, praise Jesus!)



Based on current reporting from the May 2026 local elections, Labour has experienced a significant seat loss rate. [1]
Across England, where the majority of results have been finalized, Labour is losing between 50% and 70% of the seats it is defending. In some specific heartland areas outside of London, that loss rate has climbed as high as 75% (three in every four seats). [2, 3]

The Math: Breakdown of Current Results

As of Friday evening, here is how the percentages break down based on the most recent tallies:

  • English Council Seats: With 120 of 136 councils declared, Labour has suffered a net loss of 914 seats. Early in the count, Sky News reported that in a sample of 287 defended seats, Labour lost 189—a 66% loss rate.
  • Welsh Senedd: In a historic shift, Labour lost 35 seats, leaving them with only 9. This represents an ~80% loss of their previous standing in the Welsh Parliament.
  • Projected Total: Experts currently project that Labour could lose around 1,300 to 1,500 seats by the time all results are in. [2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

God save the King. God casts down the wicked. God delivers the kingdoms of the earth to the hands of the Imperium of the Saints! Praise Jesus!

Some junior minister quit and call for Keir to step down. A snap Cabinet meeting is held. Starmer remains deluded and defiant and doubles down on continuing to stay on and ruin Britain unless a formal leadership challenge is issued.... Wes Streeting leaves the meeting tight-lipped and stays mum. Starmergeddon heats up!

In the US the AI job apocalypse has yet to hit, other than the tech sector. Yes, many jobs have been replaced, but it is a small part of the total job market and so we are not really seeing this on jobs data yet.

However, China is being crushed by 3d printers replacing much of their export market and this story reveals that India and Philippines will also be crushed by AI replacing the BPO jobs.

I have put this into the WW3 thread because WW3 will have war, famine and plague. The way to look at this war is Satan is offering mankind that has so far refused to receive Jesus Christ as savior "an offer they can't refuse". Take the mark of the beast or starve to death.



Outsourcing Jobs In India and Philippines Are Changing - And Workers Are Feeling It | Insight

These countries are the "canary in the coal mine"

Russia
Ukraine
China
Iran
Venezuela
Cuba
India
Philippines.

We can see the day approaching because massive unemployment leads to unstable regimes and that in turn leads to war. Massive unemployment also leads to slums, and the spread of the plague.

So yes, it is very possible that AI will replace some jobs and create new ones. However, the model of cheap exports that China had or the model of telephone service industry that India and Philippines had will both be completely replaced. For these countries with 30% of the world's population the shift will be catastrophic.

When Trump placed tariffs on imported goods a lot of people screamed about how that would damage our economy and ten years ago they would have been right. But all it really did was accelerate the move to 3d printers manufacturing the stuff locally. Ten years ago we didn't have that option, today we do. This is also why the US needs Venezuela oil supply to come to us, China isn't going to be manufacturing our plastic goods anymore.

Of course, this is why we are headed for WW3.

The agents on the phone have scripts they follow and the jobs they do are typically repeated over and over and over again. As a result, this is the perfect job for AI to replace. They have all the data from the calls to train on, the AI can follow scripts, it can learn from repetition, and it can be introduced slowly so that if the AI is unable to help you it sends you to an agent. In this way AI can start by doing 10% of the jobs, then 20%, then 40%, and then 80%. At first the company stops hiring new employees, then they lay off the people with the least experience. They put pressure on those remaining to be more productive or get fired and it is like watching a puddle dry up in the hot sun as everyone is replaced by AI.

This is not hypothetical, already the IT stocks in India lost $50 billion in value because of fears that AI will replace them.
 
I can share my own experience. It says the jobs are being replaced by Claude.Ai, I use this service. I needed to make a website, I explained to Claude what I needed and in one day I had my website. Over the last week I had to update it five times and each time I told Claude what the update was and poof it did it. Claude also advised me what free service I could use and how I could get a domain cheaply. Claude.ai also assists me the way an executive secretary would, and it assists me the way a researcher would. I was recently on a debate forum that lasted over an hour. This was uploaded to Youtube which created a transcript. I had Claude.ai do an analysis of the transcript to identify and analyze the different positions each person took during the debate to then publish that for comparison purposes. The amount of work I have been able to do in one week with the help of Claude.ai is absolutely incredible. I also had it write three grant proposals, write up the training manuals for this, write press releases, etc. Now the ideas were mine, and I gave it direction over everything, and I read over the final product making changes. But I have done all of this in the last two weeks. Here is a summary that Claude created:

What Claude Has Helped Me Accomplish

  • Policy proposal development — Drafted formal written proposals for systemic changes to how institutional resources are allocated and governed, including novel governance models and supporting rationale
  • Educational design — Built out detailed, multi-stage learning frameworks grounded in established research-based methodology, including pilot program structures

  • Interview and media preparation — Developed reference documents, talking-point sheets, and formatted materials for press and public interviews
  • Audience-specific messaging — Tailored the same core platform into multiple distinct written pieces for different audiences and distribution formats
  • Website development and updates — Built and iteratively updated a public-facing website, including content, layout, and structural revisions as the project evolved
  • Legal and procedural research — Identified and summarized relevant statutory frameworks, deadlines, and unresolved legal questions pertinent to specific policy positions
  • Strategic advising — Provided tactical recommendations on forum participation, framing, and positioning
  • Professional correspondence — Drafted and refined formal letters and recruitment materials for organizational purposes

King Charles III will make a big speech tomorrow that may help accelerate the inevitable Starmergeddon. Besides a change of Prime Minister until eletions are held, it'll either way be a big change in the Labour Party and really, after these bloodbath elections, will determine if they continue exist as a party more than anything else. Here's a fairly quick video to give a snapshot of potential Labour leaders that could take Keir's place. Will Streeting and Burnham be able to save one of the most power political parties in history from being dragged to the abyss by the albatross of Starmer around their necks?

Starmer Strikes Back and threatens his own party to call a General Election and it backfires spectacularly as now the public want him to call a General Election which basically would mean the doom of not just Keir but really the entire Labour Party with the bloodbath local elections still fresh in all minds. Wes Streeting resigns dramatically as Andy Burnham gets a path cleared to run in a by-election that is likely to return him to high politics to likelly take the reins of Labour away from Keir. Our feisty Tory muse Kemi Badenoch just keeps teeing off with glee.

When your Starmergeddon plot turns into a fullblown meltdown of the Labour Party past your wildest Machiavellian dreams. Labour full muppet show Starmer, Burnham, and Rayner fall over themselves in a total implosion of incompetence. And the foresight of a potentially extremely strong coalition of Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch, a rare historical opportunity, comes into view to save all Western civilization, praise Jesus.
