Sports Meets Politics and Turmoil. Iran Anthem No Sing at World Cup.

November 22, 2022
Evidently the Iran soccer team did not sing the anthem before the match with England within somewhat recent hours at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
What does it mean, in their culture, referring to Iran, and to world viewers?
Plausibly, at the end of the tunnel of theorizing what the implications are, it may spell out either change or efforts will be made to change aspects of the conditions in Iran. 
-Depending on the level of support, or leniency in the legal system back in Iran, -the players that refused to sing the anthem could face legal penalties of some sort.
In some cultures, not to sing the anthem could mean much more than just the anthem, the symbols, and sounds, the event where held; the zeal of what it all represents is taken seriously.

-In the background are the events that spiraled into intense tension post the 'custody death' of a female about a month ago.

Some Have 'Had It' (Had Enough) With the North Korea Missile Testing

October 7, 2022
Published October 6, 2022 night EST

Missiles fired for testing. Okay, missiles get tested all the time. But to fly it over another country's airspace ~?

That's why many times missiles are tested over water or desert, or something where that if a freak accident does happen, the chances of a unrepairable valuable damage are minimal.

Evidently, some North Korean missiles were recently fired over...

'Where Things Might Be Going' in the Ukraine Russia Region Politically

March 9, 2022
Well if you blurt something out too far ahead of time, sometimes it raises a red flag that you are someone to watch.
It was rather obvious that there are degrees of unsettlement in Russia about Putin's move on Ukraine, reference the invasion that tipped off a couple of weeks ago almost to the day. Of course what we see come up in iconic photos with captions on news sites, is not the whole story. But, for the case of bringing up the jist, let's go with the simplified roadmap.

Russia Launches Air Weapons on Ukraine in Recent Hours

February 24, 2022
Developing story. Is it 'headline news'?, the answer might be in gray area. Questions are asked, how serious is the fighting, how powerful are the ballistics dropped, the frequency, intensity, and bluntly how many? This in consideration that Russia and Ukraine have had tensions over the years. It was known that over the past few weeks escalations were intensifying, but it was not clear whether it might result in skirmishes, a few targeted missiles to disable a piece of infrastructure, and so ...
