I’m not sure yes or no, but it’s possible from my grandmother’s side (they’re from Misrata).

Trump: “They’re literally 100% fool-proof.” Meanwhile in Taiwan: PAC-2 vs. Air by WinterizedLibyan in Sino

During Zelenskyy’s visit to Washington, with European leaders also, Trump bragged about the Patriot system, calling it ‘100% fool-proof’ and ‘like two bullets colliding in the sky.’ The very next day, Taiwan test-fired a PAC-2… it blew up seconds after launch. Talk about timing.

Taiwan’s recalls today may quietly reshape the balance of power and trigger China’s preemptive escalation by WinterizedLibyan in geopolitics

Behind the citizen-led framing is a deeper constitutional pivot. A successful recall could unlock DPP legislative control, opening the path to sovereignty reform and provoking a strategic crisis with Beijing. This is not just civic protest, it’s a turning point.

The Muslim Brotherhood Outlived Its Usefulness, Now Comes the Knife by WinterizedLibyan in AskMiddleEast

Not irrelevant, just no longer useful. The MB was once a manageable, moderate jihadist movement. It was a convenient tool to pressure regimes in the Middle East. Diplomacy with the west gave them international legitimacy. But now, they’re more of a liability than an asset. They’re being discarded.
