Got an email today from "Fidelity Life Insurance."
But when I saw the email address that had sent it, it was obviously fake:

Holy crap! Major storm headed my way tomorrow.
Midwest blizzard - actually the first of the winter for my area....Nature reminding us who's still in charge....
I don't know how accurate he is, but if he's correct, we've already lost Trump's Iran War.
I don't want to promote AI and false information, so I'm convinced enough by the comments here to take this video down.
Thank you all.

Just spoke with a friend who is Syrian.
She explained that the whole ME region is erupting. Syria has closed it's border with Lebanon, and the people from the south of Lebanon where Hezbollah is (where a friend of hers has gone to take care of his mother), are being evacuated to the north of Lebanon, because they can't get out, and they don't know what will happen.
She said the whole war is spoken of in terms of the ancient disagreement between Abraham's sons as to who is the rightful heir of the land that was promised by God. Honestly, that is how everyone there still speaks about life there.
And then we have Trump and Hegseth, not understanding any of this, swatting the hornet's nest....
US military assists Ecuador in 1st land operation against cartels.
The United States and Ecuador carried out a joint military operation against designated terrorist organizations in Ecuador, though the U.S. role was limited to advising Ecuadorian troops, and they did not participate in the actual ground operation, a source familiar with the operation told ABC News.
The joint operation was announced by the U.S. Southern Command on Tuesday.
"The operations are a powerful example of the commitment of partners in Latin America and the Caribbean to combat the scourge of narco-terrorism," U.S. Southern Command wrote in a post on X.

I'm kind of amazed how quickly gas prices responded to the war.
Gas up $.10 this morning in small town Iowa. It may have been earlier than today; I haven't been by my gas station since mid-last week.
Recalling "Wag the Dog."
https://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1998/08/21/wag.the.dog/index.htmlLOS ANGELES (AllPolitics, Aug. 21) -- A president embroiled in a sex scandal in the Oval Office tries to save his presidency by distracting the nation with a made-for-TV war far from American soil in an obscure country.
It's not the latest news out of Washington, but the plot of the movie "Wag the Dog." In the 1997 movie, a shadowy spin doctor played by Robert De Niro recruits a Hollywood producer (Dustin Hoffman) to invent a war against Albania.
The film came out just before the Monica Lewinsky scandal broke -- and no doubt benefited at the box office and then at the video store from the publicity. Now, the film is all the buzz again because of President Clinton's announcement -- three days after admitting for the first time an inappropriate relationship with Ms. Lewinsky -- that he ordered military strikes in two countries.
From the moment Clinton went on live television Thursday to announce the bombings in Afghanistan and Sudan, "Wag the Dog's" producer-director Barry Levinson and producer Jane Rosenthal were inundated with requests for comment.
"The world's media right now are giving the filmmakers far too much credit for being clairvoyant," said their spokesman, Simon Halls. "The filmmakers put together a movie that was entertainment, and it was well received, but that's what it was: entertainment. Anything that is happening in the world today really has nothing to do with the movie."
Trump says US conducting 'major combat operations' in Iran. "Major combat operations" Is that the euphemism for war?
Asking for the American people.
