It’s 12am, I’ve had one (1) glass of wine, and I’m obsessed with how Thorin follows Bilbo’s movements in this moment.

Mind you the CIA have admitted their involvement in the occupation of Palestine is also due to the patroleum resources in the Middle East that they didn’t want the Soviet Union (socialist opposition to the Capitalist hegemony) getting their hands on.
The Western (primarily United States) involvement here is just another example of Red Scare, the Capitalist regime’s attempt to suppress Socialist development, and to force the Arab world into submission to the Western hegemony. The risk of the most oil rich region of the world— the Middle East— falling into socialist and eventual communist hands is scary to the Capitalist…
Here’s the full CIA document if you’d want a read:
We’re gonna keep a copy of that incase it goes down.

AND ANOTHER THING
the exploration of crocodiles gender is so interesting. Because, like, a lot of people interpret him as trans based on his stuff with Ivankov. And taking it a step further with crocomom stuff he is often theorized as assigned female at birth, having a child (luffy) then later transitioning via Ivankov. Which is solid, agreed, makes sense.
But also it’s fun to think the potential of croc identifying as nonbinary..he never felt a strong attachment to any gender or specific pronouns. BUT , as noted with zoros backstory and kuina, women don’t have the same opportunities as men do. Kuina was smart- she knew people would underestimate her and croc would conclude the same.
Crocodile wanted power; wanted to be strong, and he knew he couldn’t accomplish that in their world as a woman. He places an emphasis on gender now (SIR crocodile) that he doesn’t care about for himself, but because of how he wants the world to perceive him in order to be taken seriously.
And crocomom bc ofc - this is especially true after luffy is born. If croc let the world know, he would always be a Mother first and his achievements fell second.
so he identifies as a male. It has the double advantage of hiding the baby’s mother and he could start fresh as a man before the world knew his name. He never cared how he presented or how others perceived him…he just wanted to succeed above all else
