The insistence that weapons of mass destruction are set out at the forefront as primary priority above all else. 
Missiles have been reportedly fired on Iran over the past half day thereabout. Missiles have hit Dubai, it's not 100% certain where they came from at this very second.
There are reports of missiles landing on numerous targets.
The names and places in the exchange of firings are all too familiar, maybe even escalated replay, of what has been intermittently going on in about the last two years.
US, Israel, Iran, Dubai.

Big news outlets say it's mainly about the condition of nuclear arms Iran has, plus an expressed level a disinterest in the current regime of Iran, as the raison detre (d'être) for the missile strikes.

Honestly, hearts change when missiles get fired and they land. It's extremely rare that the only people that get hurt are 'intended' targets, like key weapons administrators or corrupt government officials.

A regime change is typically the behest when missiles land. 'Twas the case in other recent eras, such as Sdam Hsyn (Saddam Husein) of Iraq, or in the Vietnam War.

The title of the HCN previous post, exact wording does not matter much, was 'Paving the Way ... for Lower Standards or Decrease in Morality... and Increase in Debauchery'; when the thoughts were forming of what to say to report today's news, the title was looked at, and for a second there, the thought was nothing more needs to be said, the situation has already been addressed, (or just duplicate the story title), there's some more paving the way for debauchery and lack of morals going on. Who's doing it? Well let's let there conscience speak. Open-ended question, don't come attack me, as no fingers are being pointed. Somebody is doing something to pave the way for worse conditions somewhere down the line. The exact who, might not be readily ascertainable to everyone in the public, and the perpetrators might be a combination of people.

A regime change might occur after heavy missile firing, but is it really going to result in a real regime change in terms of who is directing different aspects of different attitudes?

Moreover, is the resentment of missile strikes, coming from all sides, neighbors and so on, going to be so intensified, that it just winds up with bunches of sour attitudes? 

People around the world are sick of the missile era we are in today. Missiles being fired doesn't have the same meaning as it did say 50 years ago, where it was a sign of the most severe form of message and strategy to bring about change. Sort of like cars, emails and computers. If 2 or 3 guys managed to get a hold of car and drive a few blocks to taunt someone over a social issue, no one cares as folks might have back in the day of Model-T Ford.

Many folks have been through this before. It's Ramadhan, fasting month, Markedly observed popularly by folks in the Middle East and from the Middle East, and missiles are being exchanged in the Middle East, among folks in the Middle East. So here we are, right about at the first 10 day mark, a month usually about 30 days, so the first third or 33.3%, mood says, whatever, and instead of heights of togetherness and seeking 'spiritual goals', Saturday morning media is rife with buildings gutted by fire. Absolutely disgusting.

Commentaries on the relatively recent Big Beautiful Bill, have glared at aspects pertaining to fight might. Depending on how the episode of missile exchanges go for roughly the next 24 hours, folks might be asking, are these events the the issue in unfolding on the practical payout level, what the punctuated spot was or is?

    [___]
The first line above is purposely left blank. Let readers see what fills in that space. What would answer the question, what could pave the way for lower standards of morality and Increased debauchery? There are a number of thoughts that can come to mind, the general spirit of what the answer is, etc.

Importantly, while crystallizing what those things are, is identifying solutions to a rapidly surging and growing problem. Especially in the US.

Due to that today's present condition is rife with misunderstanding and misinformation, in sum, some people just don't know, the balance and what goes into finding the right balance, below is an effort to lay out some of the components of the situation at hand, now in 2026.

Component 1- Right from wrong. Preferred behavior, thoughts, intentions, actions, 'in the eyes of 'the Lord's, the 'Creator' and titles of that ilk; preferred over what is forbidden, disdained, disliked, and unpreffered. That said, maybe the actual component #1 is, what is right, wrong, lawful and unlawful, in the Lord's book and US law, and ones that are both.

For the sake of time, generally, most people have a rough cut idea, even if they aren't religious, what is right and what is wrong, or where to find it, especially the big and simple things, like, do not steal, do not lie.

There is stop right there junction,- Lord's law, and US law. For a long time, the idea of law of the land or government was so that it was in sync with Lord's law.

It seems that, that's changing, at faster rate for the worst. It is as though everyday, people are manipulating or attempting to manipulate longstanding US law, to try to form up new laws that are far removed from the old ones, moreover, that puts the Country on the course of, increased debauchery. 

What those manipulators are doing, are paving the way for lower US law standards.

There are a bunch of words that can refer to what's being talked about here. In regards to debauchery, referred to are all the words covering turpitude, indecency, immoral, perversion, lechery, salacity, and promiscuity. Defining each if those words could be component two. There are more words, but will be refrained from due to multiple meanings, time and webspace.

Does Bartholomew really have to be cited? Do individuals that went through trials farther or more severe than known humans at this time can contend with, before they would be worthy of service at high stations, need to be gone into. Most of those folks were already of very high degree (of elevation, piety, etc.).

Let's make it real simple. Respectfully. If the devil approached an adult you get than the middle age, but older than a teenager, say about 27 years old, and said, please go rob the little old blind lady down the street, would you, he, she do it? Probably not.

Next challenge level, what if the individual was told, go rob the old lady, and I'll give you $1000, you'll be made famous and popular. Would you do it, or is the individual if anywhere near same, do it?

This is not an extreme circumstance if Robin Hood stealing from the rich for the poor, or an emergency to save another old lady in the hospital, this is an if everything else reasonably in good standing, in an isolated situation scenario.

A third level of complexity, what if the individual is told, rob the old lady, film yourself doing it, send the film elsewhere, just have trust, no one such as your parents and teachers at school will ever know about it, and you will be granted admission to an elite club of people with access to all the regular vices like drugs and the s word you wish, and, you will get $2000 to do it instead of just $1000.

At that extreme of silliness, it's readily understood that for a healthy person to turn to robbing an old lady, and glorifying it with a video, is wrong.

The essential core concept is the same, that involves some of the cases going around the US over about the past year or two, on through as we speak. 

It has to stop. Now.

Since when do 14 year olds, take pornographic films of themselves? Not even under pressure of gunpoint, coercion, or abuse, but simply because they think it's 'cool', 'cute', 'in style', or someone offered them some money.

News has become public that there are technically minors, as in under 16 or 18 years old, depending on the region, that are doing unthinkable things, that adults twice that age would never consider, even ones 'not religious'.

Teenagers around the age of 14 that is known, nevermind what isn't known to the public and news media, are posting videos, footage, pictures, disgraceful things, of themselves, online, or shared some kind of way, maybe through social media, or a secret recording for sale to people that have access to it.

Those teenagers are old enough to know that what they are doing they should not be doing.

Here comes what some people think takes the place of basic morality. An individual tells a teenager, send videos, and they won't tell anybody. The teenager sends the video, and the person breaks the promise and either tells or threatens to tell others. At that, the person tells the teenager, they will let everybody know about, like parents and teachers, unless the teenager pays a sum of money.

So now the teenager is being extorted.

Who gets in trouble these days, in the US (today)? Typically no one but the extortionist. 
The parents (enough of them to make a point,) don't even care about their teenagers' behavior; it's more important that the extortionist be caught. 
Indecent activity, it goes unaddressed. Trafficking and producing indent material, gone unaddressed.

What this discussion is about, is the focus on making this legal issue, the law of the land, on the extortion for exposure of doings without addressing the lost compass of morality, to the extent that it's starting to develop a generation of youths that think doing activities like filming pien if themselves and selling it, us an okay thing to do.

If the standard at least in the Country's eyes does not firm up, what might be the next less lower standard of morality in the generation after them?

This sounds like where this is all going, are debates over public nudity among adults and children, as letting loose to the point that in the future, the 'expectation', is for adults and children to be walking around holding hands in the distance areas of government, eating, and malls, in the nude. People with just a pair of shorts on are doing too much, and seen as strange, ad become condemned.

There are other situations that arose. You tell me before it's said, it's not worth bringing up or writing about it. If it is brought up, then it's an embarrassment to the Country and its institutions, which can put the blog writer on the less desirable.

Since when do grown, over 18 years old, adults, in government uniforms, be let to roam scot-free when they engaged in acts of debauchery, because someone told them if they did not do it they might lose their job? It doesn't add up.

And if it keeps going, there'll be nothing substantive to make a judgement out of.

Key takeaway: regardless if there's cat-fishing, 'sextortion, extortion involved, everybody involved needs to be at n in par level, and that does not mean make new laws that let the situation go unabated.

Just about every newspaper, at least online, have story up around the top 5 highest ranking headlines, whether a piece of writing or video, amplifying faults of ICE especially in the process of illegal immigrant problem mitigation.

But here is the thing, problems that are correlates to illegal immigrants and immigration, such as recurrent driving while intoxicated incidents that claim life after life, don't necessarily have to be cracked down on by ICE; a range of law enforcement arms and agencies are well within their rights to perform certain functions to accomplish pretty much the ultimate same.

Basically, relief from massive amounts of fraud, plots to destroy aspects of the US, assaults, dangerous drunk driving, human trafficking, and a host of other problems that were indeed caused by illegal immigrants, or potentially could occur if not preempted, is not the story of ICE, and bashing against ICE, ICE having to bash back for their own protection, and the back and forth aggression that seems to keep gaining momentum.

Reducing the problems caused by illegal immigration is, as already stated, reducing the problems of illegal immigration. 

At any given minute, the entire method of reducing the problem could change. 

People have someone to riot against, targets to attack, teenagers threatening to do unspeakable acts towards ICE agents, politicians have a platform to try to get more votes, and media outlets have a way of making more money by exploiting everything in the entirety;- that's not what protecting this country, and mitigating problems is about.

It is understood that in the process of trying to perfect America, there may have been some imperfections, and possibly some more incidents that fall on a side of a line in the sand that might not show well once media adds certain kinds of hype to it. 

The larger higher objective might be a broader more encompassing agenda involved in the checks and balances so that for example, whomever conducts procedures for illegal immigration mitigation does do according to proper boundaries.

Coming out of the years of harsh challenges and oppression, and natural disasters like earthquakes, many look forward to Afghanistan having some time for reprieve.
It appears [right through here, January 2026] there are multiple pots stirring, perhaps as an aggregate, a pot that has been getting hotter and hotter. It may be hard to tell when far off from the area, and available to media, just what exactly every event was that has occurred since December of 2025 for instance.
However, it may be possible to present a few key events, developments, and names that could be indicators of where things could go if left unchecked.

What these, or some of these, are, or might be:
There's a 'group' if that's a label, and for brief words, called ISIS-K, which according to media trends, seems to be growing in 'notoriety' (in the 'terrorist world').
ISIS-K appears to sometimes be shortened to just ISIS, which might do a little disservice when trying to analyze the dynamics of events and developments. ISIS-K seems to have certain patterns of development, although it might somehow be tied to the popularly known ISIS. The K in ISIS-K according to popularly known definitions, might stand for Khorasan. Keep in mind, that sometimes nomenclatures especially when acronym based, are ways for media to quickly cite and label a group, entity and things of that kind (id genus omne), in a language, like English. On a practical, reality level, the English letter K is unlikely to be in the middle of an all Urdu sentence of today; 'Kh' might actually be represented as one letter in other eastern or Middle Eastern languages, transliteration efforts, could be more accurately transliterated Khurasan. Etc.

There's a 'group', ...ceteris paribus, called Al-Tazkirah, that is reported to be a recruiter for ISIS-K. Basically reports say they are reaching in to whom they see as potentials in the Uighur, Uyghur and other spellings, folk (reference China).

Simple background,- al usually means the, or amplified main, when translating Arabic and related/regional etc. languages to English. Tazkira, or tadhkira, tathkira, transliterations could go on to fill a page up, that zikr, or remembrance, usually used in the context of memory of the Creator, (religious), with a t or ta in front of it, and the circular letters or symbol after it for grammatical touches (quickly said). A lot of folks all over the world are familiar with the zikr, zhikr part. Reality is, once again, a word and concept that has been around since about as long as man at least itself, is being used as a group name.

A suicide bomb went off in a Chinese restaurant in Kabul, Afghanistan just about a couple of days ago. It is reported that ISIS-K took responsibility, and that it had to do with oppression of Uighurs, the target was Chinese National. Reports indicate one Chinese person passed away, there were a number of Afghanis that passed in the incident.

-Not to be judgemental of the vibe seen in the pictures of the tragedy.

- It might be somewhat safe to say, that there seems to be a lingering effort (by whomever, singular, multiple, it might be cloudy as to who or what exactly is behind it) to try to keep the presence of violence in the region.

In the meantime, at least within the past couple of months, there are roughly 2 to several main sets of concurrent border tensions going on. There may be other border concerns, maybe not as salient, or treated as salient in many media coverage.

Durand line around Pakistan border.
Generally looks on online easy access maps to be the longest of the borders, stretching along the south of Afghanistan.

Tajikistan border incidents.

Daqq-e Patergan / Daryache-ye Namakzar.
Environmental, water, border issues.

Reports of smuggling issues at different border spots.

As a matter of information, Afghanistan borders:
Pakistan
Iran
Turkmenistan
Uzbekistan
Tajikistan
China

Ongoing conditions are already in consideration.

Brief outline:

• Guatemalan police, at least 9 lost as of about right now, State of Emergency declared.
• Uprisings in prisons, at least a few dozen guards reported to have been taken hostage. Two of the 3 prisons the occurrence appear to include, 
• El Lobo Prison (Finca Modelo/Pavoncito)
• Renovacion 1 (R1) in Escuintla

• Spain train incident, crash

• Minimums in recent Iran 'protestor crackdown' as reported by media are around 3900; it is not clear the totality if what is going into the protestors, protesting, or the crackdown. Reports are extreme numbers and some aspects of global media coverage of the incidents day to day seem barely seen. Last week, word got around that the crackdowns involving death had ceased, the numbers were 2500 thereabout. Perhaps a lull, ostensible rest, an increase of 1400 over; unclear, differing reports as to the larger number to begin with. Practical checks might have to come into the assessment, are there really that many people that could be in the city active in protesting if suppression(?) of it was in place for some weeks now.

• Mid December of last year was an incident in Delaware involving firearms at the DMV, trooper on guard the facility shot, then the shooter was shot by another law enforcement member. New findings on motives are surfacing in the media right through here.
• Security modus operandi for motor vehicle facilities may be affected; large open space indoor facility with a skeletal crew of guards, and an assumption that there is minimal chance of something going wrong, is a perception that is plausibly under revision

• Fires at factories/plant:
• South Deering, South Chicago area near water/ Indiana line, in the last few hours
• Emporia, Virginia last Thursday night

• Judge and wife shot inside their home in Lafayette, Indiana earlier today

• South Korea reportedly slating go ramp up missiles/capacity etc in possible counterbalance of void of nuclear capability per pertinent treaties, for defense with respect to North Korea.

• Extreme flooding in Mozambique said to be a cause for mass displacement.

• Flooding in South Africa as well; perhaps southern Africa in general affected.

• Turquoise Alert issued, after 8 year old girl went missing, Reported to be Navajo related.

• Greenland gaining momentum as a central issue in international politics arena, in sequence after US officials voicing prospectives.

• Former South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol and wife Kim Keon Hee, undergoing comb being cut, punitive actions set or the prospects of them, upon developments that unravelled having to do with insurrection, rebellion, and abuse of power, for the first named, and vagaries of allegations of financial related misconduct/corruption for the latter named.

• Rumen Radev announced that he will officially resign as Bulgarian president. Vice President Iliana Yotova reported as slated to hold hilt until next elections.

• Moldova making moves to move out CIS, into EU

• Recent smash and grab incident netting property assault thieves over a million dollars in Jersey City NJ the other day, proof that certain kinds of people and their activities is not desisting
