Few news items indeed. Yet behind them lie the deep pathologies of the modern world:
the power of disinformation, the persistence of political exploitation, and the brutality that continues to survive within human relationships.
Understanding them requires not only knowledge, but the courage to confront our own certainties.
1. Rumors About Nuclear Codes and Trump
White House: Rumors that Donald Trump attempted to activate nuclear codes against Iran
Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson claimed in a recent podcast appearance that U.S. President Donald Trump attempted to activate nuclear codes against Iran during an emergency meeting.

We report the news, but due to its gravity, we will refrain from evaluating it. All commentary is left to Diotima.
2. iefimerida.gr: “Who gets what from the new measures: What parents, pensioners, tenants are entitled to – examples included.”
The Right has been “stripping Greeks down to their underwear” for a lifetime. But always… for Greece, damn it! For Rafales and frigates.
“Si vis pacem, para bellum” (If you want peace, prepare for war).
The Turk, you see, has been lurking to take the islands for two centuries now. Ever since he lost them, he probes—but never decides. Because before he takes them, two Right-wing dynasties and their heirs take them first, supposedly to protect them.
The Karamanlis and Mitsotakis families. Heavy kickbacks have been flowing for about a century now, across the entire spectrum of the party network—from ERE to today’s New Democracy. Let us just note that nearly 40 properties will be inherited by Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ son—just as he inherited from his own father.
On the eve of elections, however, the Right-wing “family” remembers to hand out trinkets and mirrors to poor Greeks—as befits monkeys. And they rub their eyes in amazement at the dazzling 200 euros annually (read: 20 euros per month, now to become… 25), which is the “support” offered to low-income pensioners by the country’s prime minister. When even a modest household electricity bill alone exceeds 100 euros per month.
And the monkeys jump around like mad, licking the donor’s hands with gratitude, admiration, and a sense of repayment through votes.
But you might say—not everyone is a monkey in this country. Not everyone votes for Mitsotakis. Certainly. Those who vote for anti-Mitsotakis parties, however, are the ones who possess not even a seed of intellect—or, at best, the mind of a chicken.
How else can one describe the fool who votes for protest parties such as those of Zoe Konstantopoulou or Dimitris Koutsoumpas? These very fragments—crutches that the Right has always needed to play the dirty game of parliamentary democracy.
Exactly as they have degraded it—those who boast that they serve and uphold a crippled political system, as the Greek one has been since the very foundation of the modern Greek state.
3. Shock in Crete over the murder of Eleftheria – Her partner had placed a GPS tracker on her car; he tried to hide the vehicle with her dead body inside.
From 2019 to the end of 2025, 150 women were murdered in Greece. According to UN data, a woman is killed every 10 minutes worldwide—mostly by partners or spouses.
And how could it be otherwise, when the regime of ownership over the female body is not merely legitimized but imposed by the most powerful tool of mental lobotomy ever devised: religions?
From Eve of Moses and Iphigenia, Chryseis and Briseis of Homer, to Aisha—the 9-year-old wife of Muhammad.
Even if religions no longer hold the power they once did, they have already poured their poison into patriarchal societies for centuries. And mindless individuals still carry that darkness and barbarity into the 21st century.
This enormous problem does not concern women alone. It must primarily be addressed and resolved by those who do not swear by—or invest in—such unnatural ownership contracts of unfreedom, such as marriages and civil unions.
No one belongs to anyone. This is exclusively a human problem—not one of gender.
Diotima
The report concerns Donald Trump and stems from a claim made by a former analyst of the CIA.
A clear stance is required here:
information of this kind, if not confirmed by multiple credible sources or official evidence, remains at the level of rumor or political discourse.
This is not merely “serious news” — it is the kind of report that, if true, would have triggered:
institutional reactions,
an international crisis,
and documented leaks from multiple channels.
The U.S. nuclear arsenal is not activated unilaterally in the way it is often portrayed. There is a procedure, a military chain of command, and safeguards.
Conclusion:
It cannot be dismissed outright, but neither can it be treated as reliable news without verification. It is a classic case where political narrative meets geopolitical exaggeration
