Iran Warns of Potential Strikes on Elon Musk’s Middle East Assets
Tensions in the Middle East have escalated as Iranian state-linked media warned that Elon Musk’s regional infrastructure—including Starlink ground stations—could be considered military targets. While Starlink is a commercial network, its critical role in modern communications and conflict zones has transformed it into a strategic asset.
This reported threat highlights the growing risks for private tech companies operating in high-stakes geopolitical theaters as they become central to global security.
A viral video featuring Jerusalem-based Orthodox Rabbi Yom Tov Glaser has triggered controversy over comments he made about the future of major world powers.
In the circulating remarks, Glaser says that countries including the United States, Germany, France, Britain, Russia, China and others will eventually be brought “down to their knees.” He adds that nations continuing to help Israel may receive more time before that happens, while referring to the Zohar and describing a future reckoning for the treatment of Jews over the past 2,000 years.
Glaser is an American-born Orthodox rabbi and longtime religious educator associated with Aish HaTorah in Jerusalem.
The remarks are dramatic, but the viral framing goes further than the evidence. His comments appear to present a religious or prophetic interpretation, not an announced Israeli government strategy, and available reliable sources do not establish that he was speaking on behalf of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The controversy shows how quickly provocative religious commentary can become transformed online into claims about official national policy.
Elon Musk earned the typical Tesla worker's annual pay every 4.23 seconds. The richest person in the world and CEO of tech and EV giant Tesla received $158.3 billion in compensation last year.
His pay was 2,522,203 times higher than the median Tesla's employee pay of $57,243 annually, according to an executive paywatch analysis from America's largest federation of labor unions, AFL-CIO.
During a typical 30-minute commute, he's already banked $24.36 million in compensation.
To put the inequality into context, while Musk is earning 2.5 million times more than his workforce, the average S&P CEO earns 312 times their workers.
Including Musk, S&P 500 leaders earned an average of around $340 million last year, a roughly 1,700% increase from 2024; but take him out of the equation, and the average CEO pay at S&P 500 companies increased 21% to $22.8 million last year.
In a new BBC interview, Hunter Biden revealed that Joe Biden’s prostate cancer has spread “into his bones and further,” describing his father’s condition as “very painful” and “very debilitating.”
Biden was first diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer in may 2025. At the time, doctors said the cancer had already metastasized to his bones. 💔
A video of Trump resurfaced of him saying:
“If you feel sorry for him, don’t feel so sorry, because he’s vicious… I really don’t feel sorry for him.”
Now, more than a year later, Hunter says his father’s cancer has progressed further.
A dramatic quote claiming Donald Trump said, “Nobody knows God better than me” and that nobody is loved more by God has spread widely across social media, but the words do not come from a verified Trump speech or authentic Truth Social post.
Fact-checkers traced the viral image back to satirical content that was later reshared without its original context. Searches of Trump’s official accounts and public remarks found no evidence that he made the statement attributed to him.
Trump has, however, frequently used religious language when discussing his presidency and political survival. During his January 2025 inaugural address, he spoke about surviving the 2024 assassination attempt and said he believed his life had been “saved by God” for a reason connected to his presidency.
That real statement has become part of Trump’s broader message about faith, destiny and his political mission. But the viral claim that he declared himself closer to God than anyone else is not supported by the available record.
It is another example of how easily satire can become political “news” once the original label disappears.
I hope you now understand the reason behind $APR ’s rise. I noticed many large traders were opening short positions against my view, and now $1.54M worth of shorts have been liquidated.
