80 years on, Iwate woman recalls naval bombardment
The city of Kamaishi in Iwate Prefecture is said to have been the first place on Japan's main island of Honshu to suffer a naval bombardment by the Allied powers during World War II. More than 5,000 shells were fired into the northeastern Japan city, which had a large iron mill, on July 17 and Aug. 9, 1945, killing a total of 782 people, mostly civilians. As the bombardments lasted about two hours on both days, Mutsuko Sano, 94, clearly heard the earth rumbling at a school for girls about 30 kilometers away. Sano was 14 years old when she evacuated with others from her hometown in Kamaishi to the school in the neighboring city of Tono in April 1945. After the second attack, more of Sano's classmates evacuated from Kamaishi. She could do nothing but hold devastated friends who had lost relatives. "I want to tell young people now that natural disasters cannot be avoided, but war can," Sano said. Since Kamaishi had a prisoner-of-war camp, Sano often saw lines of prisoners heading to a mine for work. After the war ended, however, she saw them whistling as they walked through town, a scene that made her fully realize her country's defeat. When Sano returned to Kamaishi with her father, she saw burned ruins everywhere, with the five chimneys of the ironworks, which used to be a symbol of the city, bent miserably. Around Kamaishi Station, there were several craters formed as a result of the bombardments. "It was complete hell," Sano said. "I wish the war had ended earlier." Sano has lived in Kamaishi for 80 years since the end of the war, witnessing the rise and fall of her hometown. The city began to recover in the 1950s, led by its steel and fishery industries, but was again devastated by the massive earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011. "The city remains deserted now," she said. "Why should we experience such misery again?" Still, she keeps busy working for the town, making her wartime experiences into a booklet and sharing her story through lectures. "People can't resist a tsunami, but war can be avoided," she emphasized. "We must never start a war."

Uranus in Gemini Will Affect Each Zodiac Sign From 2025-2033
Strap yourself in for a wild and unpredictable ride, because Uranus in Gemini—one of the most exciting transits of 2025—is about to permanently change the world. Starting on July 7, this radical transit will unleash a wave of disruption across the collective, affecting every zodiac sign in ways we have yet to fully understand. Uranus is the planet of rebellion, innovation, and cosmic shockwaves, and when it enters Gemini—the zodiac sign of language, media, and technology—it supercharges the air with electricity. From now until August 3, 2033, Uranus in Gemini will rewrite the rules of communication, challenge how we share and shape information, and force us to reckon with the stories we've been told—as well as the ones we're still telling ourselves. This isn't your average transit. Uranus moves slowly, spending approximately seven years in each zodiac sign, which means its influence builds gradually and leaves a lasting impact. Its arrival in Gemini hasn't happened since the 1940s, and the last time it did, the world underwent a total transformation. From 1941 to 1949, Uranus in Gemini mirrored a world split in two—much like Gemini is symbolically connected to the 'twins.' We saw the Allied powers go up against the Axis Powers in WWII. The same thing happened when Uranus was in Gemini from 1858 to 1865, when the United States underwent the Civil War, and the Confederacy (Southern states) rebelled against the Union (Northern states). Last time Uranus was in Gemini, breakthroughs in communication and technology changed how people connected. We saw the rise of television, the invention of the first computer (ENIAC), the expansion of radio, and the rapid development of air travel. These innovations were both inspiring and irreversible. Uranus in Gemini doesn't just revolutionize how we think; it makes sure we can never go back. Now, these changes are unfolding all over again, but this time, the stakes are totally different. We're stepping into a world shaped by artificial intelligence, deepfakes, social algorithms, and a collective attention span that has been stretched dangerously thin. As Uranus moves through Gemini, it will confront us with questions like: Who controls the narrative? What's real? And how do we know what we know? Gemini governs language, perception, and short-form information. In the age of memes, misinformation, and AI-generated content, Uranus in Gemini will likely dismantle what we think of as 'truth,' replacing it with new methods of recording history and communicating reality. It could even destroy the internet as we know it and turn it into something completely different, possibly even instigating a digital blackout that wipes all the photos, videos, and projects we've spent years accumulating on the cloud. This transit may also coincide with the breakdown of binaries. While Gemini is symbolized by the 'twins,' Uranus thrives on disruption, and together, they'll challenge the way we divide our world into categories like good and evil, real and fake, male and female—and most notably, human and machine. Expect a rise in controversial identities, alternative relationships, multilingual modes of expression, and neurodivergent thinking. The very concept of intelligence is up for redefinition. And while that might sound terrifying, it's also thrilling. Uranus in Gemini offers liberation through curiosity, because once you start asking better questions, the old answers stop being satisfactory. If you're already at the edge of your seat, don't worry. These changes won't all happen at once, but over a long period of time. During the first few years of this transit, Uranus will form several powerful alignments with other outer planets, creating energetic windows that accelerate transformation. These aspect patterns will give us clues about where this revolution is headed and how we can influence it. On August 11, Uranus will form a supportive sextile to Saturn in Aries at 2 degrees, the first of two major alignments between these planets. While Uranus pushes forward, Saturn builds the structure to hold it. This aspect will be active from July 2025 through March 2026, with a second sextile exact on January 20, 2026. It's a cosmic green light for innovation with staying power. New ideas launched during this window could reshape systems like education, transportation, and digital governance for years to come. Shortly after, Uranus forms a sextile with Neptune in Aries at 1 degree on August 28, which will soften some of its disruptive force. Neptune brings dreams, illusions, and empathy to the table. This sextile will repeat on November 20—at 29 degrees of Pisces—and again on July 15, 2026—around 4 degrees of Aries. This will establish a long period—from August 2025 to September 2026—during which inspiration will lead to great innovations. This is an ideal time for visionary folk, such as artists, spiritualists, technologists, and those working to humanize the digital world. That said, progress won't be linear. Uranus stations retrograde at 1 degree Gemini on September 6, 2025, briefly retreating back into Taurus on November 7 before stationing direct at 27 degrees Taurus on February 3, 2026. This retrograde marks a period of integration and recalibration. You might second-guess the ideas you were so certain about, or feel lost in a whirlwind of conflicting information. Trust that this confusion has a purpose. Sometimes, we need to go backward before we can leap forward. When Uranus re-enters Gemini for good on April 26, 2026, the pace quickens once again and the stakes get even higher. Just a few months later, we arrive at one of the most defining moments of this transit: Uranus trine Pluto in Aquarius, which will be exact on July 18, 2026 and again on November 29, 2026, but active from May 2026 through early 2027. This is when things get real. Pluto in Aquarius is already reshaping our understanding of power, technology, and collective willpower—and Uranus in Gemini injects lightning into the equation. Expect massive breakthroughs around AI governance, virtual identity, social networks, and cultural revolutions. This trine is a game-changer, especially for activists, technologists, and whistle blowers. Uranus in Gemini begins on July 7, 2025 and will last until 2033. At the same time, Uranus forms a sextile to Jupiter in Leo on July 21, 2026, opening a dazzling portal for creative expression, courageous leadership, and bold new voices. This aspect will be brief but bright, as its energy spans from June to August 2026 and offers a burst of optimism in the midst of so much mental rewiring. If Uranus in Gemini is rewriting the story, Jupiter in Leo will hand you the microphone. Together, these planetary events form the opening act of an eight-year-long transformation. As we move through Uranus in Gemini, we're being asked to let go of outdated modes of thinking and embrace a more curious, dynamic, and multifaceted way of engaging with the world. Whether you're a journalist, a coder, a poet, or simply someone trying to keep up with these rapidly changing times, this transit will challenge you to think differently, speak authentically, and listen more closely than ever before. Every zodiac sign will experience this transit in a different area of life, depending on which of the 12 houses Gemini rules in your birth chart. But no matter who you are, Uranus in Gemini will ask you to stay open. Stay curious. Stay flexible. Because the future is speaking to you—and it's using a brand-new language to do it. How Uranus in Gemini will affect each zodiac sign Here's what you can expect from Uranus in Gemini from 2025 to 2033, according to your sun and/or rising sign (and seriously, you're missing out if you don't read these horoscopes for your rising sign): Aries Uranus in Gemini will shake up your third house of communication, intellect, travel, and technology.

German Embassy apologizes for distorting Soviet flag (PHOTO)
The German Embassy in Moscow has apologized after sharing a map that altered the Soviet flag into a symbol resembling that of the Nazis. The embassy acknowledged the error and removed the image following criticism from the Russian Foreign Ministry. Berlin's diplomatic mission published a post on its Telegram channel on Tuesday to mark the 80th anniversary of the division of German territory after World War II. Germany was fully occupied and governed by the Allied powers from the Berlin Declaration on June 5, 1945, until the founding of West Germany on May 23, 1949. The accompanying map of the Allied occupation zones depicted the Soviet flag as a hammer and sickle in a white circle on a red background. The flags of France, the United States, and the UK appeared correctly on the map. The altered Soviet design resembled the Nazi German flag under Adolf Hitler, which had a black swastika in a white circle against a red backdrop. In contrast, the official flag of the Soviet Union displayed a gold hammer and sickle on a red field, positioned in the upper corner. In a statement, the embassy explained that the image was intended to illustrate post-war European borders, but had featured 'a map from that time with incorrect data.' 'We did not intend to offend the feelings of our subscribers and replaced the image after learning about the mistake,' it added. The updated photo showed the museum in Berlin's Karlshorst district, where the Act of Unconditional Surrender of the German Armed Forces was signed. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova urged the German Embassy to apologize for the post. She described the incident as either 'the stupidity of the employees' or 'a deliberate – and under Russian law, illegal – attempt' to equate the Soviet Union with Nazi Germany. She also raised the possibility that the embassy's social media content is being managed by external parties, stating, 'They have stopped working at the German Embassy for a long time, but simply pay for outsourcing to Russian-speaking citizens of Ukraine or exchange such fakes by barter for missiles.' Since taking office earlier this year, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has urged greater military aid to Ukraine and has backed the use by Kiev of long-range missiles 'without restrictions,' including strikes inside Russian territory. In May, Germany pledged €5 billion ($5.6 billion) to support the production of long-range weapons in Ukraine. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov condemned the move, saying Germany was 'competing with France for primacy in further provoking war.' Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned that Germany was 'sliding down the same slippery slope it already followed a couple of times in the last century – down toward its own collapse.'

An Insightful Study on the Complexity, Tragedy of Mers El-Kebir
The tragedy at Mers El-Kebir on July 3, 1940, illustrates the complexities of war. When it comes to World War II, most know the surface material that Germany and Soviet Russia invaded Poland in 1939; France fell to Germany in June 1940, resulting in the puppet Vichy France government and a counter Free French government-in-exile; and that Britain fought practically by itself until the Germans invaded Russia in June 1941 and the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in December 1941. Common knowledge is that there were ultimately two competing sides: the Axis Powers of Germany, Italy and Japan, and the Allied Powers of Great Britain, Soviet Russia, and the United States. And certainly there are complexities within these arrangements, but for the most part, they are rather straightforward. The relationship between the French and the British leading up to and after July 3, 1940, is anything but straightforward. In Ryan K. Noppen's new study, 'Mers El-Kebir 1940: Operation Catapult,' he breaks down the geopolitical and geostrategic complexities that resulted in the British feeling compelled to attack the French fleet in the Mediterranean. Perhaps this attack is known to many readers, but what may not be known is why the attack was deemed completely necessary by the British, but completely unnecessary by the French, and how the attack understandably led to heightened French bitterness toward the British, but also how the attack resulted in increased support from the Americans—a move that arguably saved the British Isles from capitulation. Few Options Readers may already have a preconceived notion about the Mers El-Kebir attack, siding with either the British or the French. Noppen, however, presents both sides: those of the political leaders and the military brass, but also those troops on the ground (or more accurately, sailors at sea) who were caught in the middle of this unfortunate event.

"The President Of The United States Is A F—king Moron": People Are Slamming Trump For Making A "Joke" About The Anniversary Of D-Day In Front Of The German Chancellor
Today is the 81st anniversary of D-Day. For those who don't know, on June 6, 1944, the Allied powers (including the United States) stormed the beaches of Normandy, France, leading to the beginning of the liberation of Germany and the rest of Europe from the Nazi regime. Well, Germany's Chancellor, Friedrich Merz, recently met with President Donald Trump at the White House, and their discussion about the anniversary of D-Day has gone viral for being yet another embarrassing moment for Trump on the world stage. In a now-viral clip seen by over 8 million people, Donald Trump made a "joke" about D-Day, telling the German Chancellor that it was "not a pleasant day for you." CNN / Twitter: @BulwarkOnline "May I remind you that we are having June 6 tomorrow. This is D-Day anniversary. When the Americans once ended the war in Europe," Chancellor Merz said.

This was not a great day," Trump repeated, pointing towards the Chancellor while smiling and laughing. "No, it was not a pleasant — well, in the long run Mr. President, this was the liberation of my country from Nazi dictatorship," the Chancellor said, seriously. Related: AOC's Viral Response About A Potential Presidential Run Has Everyone Watching, And I'm Honestly Living For It "Sure. That's true," Trump responded. Following Trump's remarks, many people took to social media to criticize his callousness and the fact that the sitting president seemingly did not understand the historical significance of D-Day. "It's almost like he didn't know this," one user wrote in response to the clip. "Trump remains an embarrassment on the world stage," one person wrote. "When a U.S. president can't recognize the moral clarity of D-Day, liberating the world from fascism, it's not just ignorance. It's historical amnesia wrapped in his ego," another person wrote. "That's a fucking crazy thing to say to the German chancellor." And this person summed up the overall consensus, "The President of the United States is a fking moron." What are your thoughts?
