The Day They Tried to Lift the Pentagon
On an October day in 1967, the air outside The Pentagon felt charged with something that was difficult to define and even harder to contain. It wasn’t just anger, though there was plenty of that. It wasn’t just a protest, though that was certainly the reason thousands had gathered. It was something stranger, something more theatrical, more symbolic, more… improbable.

The complete history of the U.S -IRAN conflict explained
The United States is going around creating conflict with every nation in the world. It started with full-scale sanction wars in 2025 and as soon as the calendar flipped on 2026, it's captured Venezuela's president, threatened to acquire Greenland, and is now contemplating a regime change in Iran. Over the last 73 years, the US and Iran have had an incredibly rocky relationship. It's not just about nuclear weapons or about military power or terrorism or even about religion because you can look at Saudi and Pakistan. America has a better relation with them. So why has the US spent over 45 years sanctioning Iran, threatening them, and treating them like an arch nemesis? When did America's obsession with Iran really begin? Let's dive in. Iran in the 1950s looked like this. Women walked the streets of Thran in western clothing. They were studying in universities for higher education. The country was democratic and held elections.

Vanished
The scariest disappearances are not the ones in wilderness or war zones or dangerous neighborhoods. They are the ones that happen in daylight, in ordinary places, to ordinary people doing ordinary things. Walking to a car. Leaving work. Going for coffee. Running an errand. One minute present, the next minute gone. No scream. No witness who saw enough. No body. No explanation. Just a gap where a person used to be and a trail that stops as if reality itself swallowed them whole.
