Let me see if I understand this . . . 1. The U.S. is at war with Iran. 2. Russia is helping Iran in that war. 3. The U.S. is now giving Russia money that it can use to help Iran destroy U.S. bases and kill U.S. troops. Donald is smart & patriotic like that.

This is so sick. So a Russian blood diesel vessel is on its way to NC set to arrive tomorrow. It left St Petersburg on Sept 22nd. This Trump-Putin plan has been in the works for weeks can’t picture what allies America will have left after this

Per Russian media, “Russian sources expect that as well as purchasing Russian oil and diesel, Donald Trump will provide Russia with spare parts to repair the refineries damaged by Ukrainian drone strikes. They anticipate that Trump's fuel deal will lead to a Russian victory.”

Who is going to stop this motherfucker? Diesel prices started to rise sharply after Lunatic Donald and Genocide Benjamin attacked Iran on 28 February 2026. Before that date, the price showed normal market variations. But this is probably more than Donald Trump can grasp. Lunatic and stupid.

I have just learned that the MVUEH break inspired another attack on one of our unbroken Enigma messages. On 20 September 2026, the 63-letter-long Enigma message Nr. 205 NF / Nr. 285 FMNGI of 31 July 1941 was successfully broken with the help of Anthropic Claude Opus 5.

possible OCR errors. During the Bombe attack, AI also tried modifying these doubtful letters to see whether that would help find the key. As we know, a single faulty letter in a Bombe menu usually causes failure. As far as I know, this is the first time this technique has been used in a Bombe attack

Furthermore, AI did not use our faulty transcription of Nr. 172, MVUEH, but relied on a facsimile copy of the message form for an identical version of the message retransmitted by another radio station. It did an OCR analysis of the other message Nr. 88 NF/61, MVUEH, and identified letters with

We failed to break MVUEH with hill climbing; even the GPU version failed. However, AI discovered that the broken SIPVX message might be related to MVUEH and used the Bombe with a repeated place name as a crib, ROSENOW ROSENOW, to find the key and decipher the message. AI saw something we did not.
