Cyberattack Cripples Iran's Banking Sector Amidst Economic Turmoil

Today, Iran faced an unprecedented cyberattack that targeted the Central Bank of Iran (CBI) and several other major financial institutions across the country. This massive breach resulted in the leakage of account information and balances, disrupting bank systems nationwide. ATMs nationwide were reported down, remaining offline through Wednesday, adding to the chaos.

Iranian officials have labeled this as the largest hacking attack ever against the state, though the perpetrators remain unidentified. The timing of this attack couldn't be more critical, as Iran's economy is already under severe strain from years of international sanctions, inflation, and currency devaluation.

Background on Iran's Economic Woes
Iran's economy has been grappling with multiple challenges for years. U.S. sanctions have choked off vital oil revenues and limited access to international markets, contributing to a significant devaluation of the Iranian rial and soaring inflation. The country has struggled with high unemployment rates, particularly among the youth, and widespread economic mismanagement has only exacerbated the situation.

Efforts to foster a "resistance economy" focused on self-sufficiency and regional trade have seen limited success, with Iran still heavily dependent on its weakened industrial and agricultural sectors. The cyberattack on Iran's financial institutions adds a new layer of instability, threatening to undermine an already fragile economic landscape further.

This attack comes at a time when Iran is already facing considerable internal unrest and external pressures, leaving the government with few options as it navigates this latest crisis. The consequences of this cyberattack, if not swiftly addressed, could deepen the economic turmoil and erode public confidence in the regime’s ability to safeguard the nation’s financial stability.

Danny Danon absolutely destroys UN Relief official Tom Fletcher over his false claims — like the widely debunked “14,000 babies” narrative — and exposes how this kind of propaganda fuels deadly violence, like the murders of Sarah and Yaron.

Major revelation:
Danon accuses the UN of actively colluding with Hamas to block humanitarian aid — using mafia-style threats and even purging NGOs from the Shared Aid Database if they support the new aid delivery system.

Why China's Greatest Weapon May Be Its Willingness to Suffer

Let me ask you something: Have you ever been told you can’t buy something because you’ve hit your quota? That’s rationing—and here in America, it’s virtually unheard of. Sure, we had the great toilet paper panic of 2020, but that was more about hysteria than hardship. The truth is, we’ve grown used to convenience, comfort, and instant gratification.

That comfort could become a liability.

Because over in China, the people are enduring hardship—and not by accident. They’re preparing for war. And while Americans are busy customizing their next coffee order, China is building warships, digging bomb shelters, and getting ready to go toe-to-toe with the West. This isn’t fearmongering—it’s fact.


Hardship Builds Readiness

During World War II, Americans made real sacrifices. Ration books. Victory gardens. No new cars, refrigerators, or even typewriters. Every scrap of wool, steel, and fuel was repurposed for the war effort. Why? Because we knew what was at stake. It was a total war, and we fought it with total resolve.

That unity, that resolve, is exactly what gave us the edge. America didn’t just outfight our enemies—we outproduced them. Industry, grit, and sacrifice won the day.

Now ask yourself: Could we do that today?

The FAKE FAMINE in Gaza EXPOSED: Hamas Caught Hoarding Aid!

Where Are the Women and Children?

We’ve been watching the so-called "aid distribution" in Gaza unfold, and it raises a serious question: where are the women and children? Nearly every image shows military-age men grabbing supplies. The IDF’s new aid program—intended to bypass Hamas and deliver food directly to Gazan families—has been chaotic but surprisingly effective. It’s also revealing just how deep the corruption runs.

Yes, Hamas has tried to stop people from accessing the aid. But the people are getting bolder. They’re breaking through checkpoints, pushing past barriers, and taking what they need. Why? Because they know the American contractors running the aid stations aren’t going to shoot them. That’s led to the distribution of over 1.3 million meals per day.
