The archeological community refuses to discuss these or any other stones also even the Sphynx and the building of the pyramids because they predate Egyptian history who simply found them and occupied them claiming them as their own. To admit any of this this would upset world history and destroy the Egyptian economy. World history would also require a total re write. Many videos discussing these stones and their amazing cutting and hauling across county and lifting into place, do some searches on youtube vids: Baalbek CUSCO Machu Pichu PumaPunku Olantay Tambo Graham Hancock Brian Foerster Golbekli tepi Trilithon stones The stones seem to date from 9000 to 12000 years ago even before the Younger Dryas reset, Some of the stones have 12 different angles cut in them to fit perfectly with other adjacent stones. Even now engineers can not cut lift and manage some of these stones even with modern technology, some sources think the stones were liquefied and shaped using technology that has long since been forgotten.

Musk says steps to stop Russia from using Starlink seem to have worked Feb 1 (Reuters) - Elon Musk said on Sunday that moves by his SpaceX company to stop the 'unauthorized' use by Russia of its internet system Starlink seemed to have worked, ‌while Kyiv's defence chief said officials were working on ways to prevent any ‌future use by Moscow. Kyiv's military relies on tens of thousands of satellite-based Starlink internet connections for battlefield communication and for piloting some drone missions, but said this week it had found Starlink terminals on ⁠long-range drones used in ‌Russian attacks. Ukraine said it was working with SpaceX to stop Russia from guiding drones with Starlink. "Looks like the ‍steps we took to stop the unauthorized use of Starlink by Russia have worked. Let us know if more needs to be done," SpaceX CEO Musk said on X. Full story: YAHOO!NEWS

Putin’s Tech Paranoia Is Dragging Russia Into the Past Russia has fallen significantly behind in the global race for artificial intelligence, largely due to Russian leader Vladimir Putin’s personal aversion to modern technology, according to The Times on January 31. As reported by The Times, Putin governs the country using encrypted landline telephones and printed briefings, avoiding the internet and smartphones entirely. He reportedly considers the internet a “CIA project,” a stance that isolates him from the digital tools embraced by leaders worldwide. This aversion, the report suggests, has direct consequences for Russia’s technological competitiveness. More: United24 Media

Russia’s 1.2 million casualties in Ukraine dwarf all its conflicts since World War II, report says About 1.2 million Russian troops have been killed, wounded or are missing since its invasion of Ukraine almost four years ago, a rate of casualties for a major military power not seen since World War II, a new report from a prominent international think tank says. And the enormous human toll has secured relatively small territorial gains on the battlefield, with Russia increasing the amount of Ukrainian land under its control by just 12% since 2022, the report from Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) says.

A minute-by-minute timeline of the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by a federal agentABC News compiled a timeline based on five verified videos of the incident. The interaction that ended in the death of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis on Saturday morning began at least three minutes earlier when Pretti appeared to be using his phone to record CBP officers, according to videos reviewed and verified by ABC News. Minutes later, Pretti was pinned on the street by multiple federal agents -- visibly being hit by one of them -- when one of the officers can be seen leaving the struggle with what appears to be a gun. Those videos appear to contradict, at least in part, claims by federal officials that Pretti “approached U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun” and “attacked” officers carrying out immigration duties.
