Abounaddara, Everything is under control Mr. President

30th January 2026A Curriculum of ImpostersAbounaddaraMinus Plato

In another Abou Naddara video, titled “Everything is under control Mr. President,” we peer out a doorway at a man standing silently in a sun-drenched alley. After 45 seconds, the view shifts to the same man in a courtyard, seen first from a few feet away, then closer. As the image dissolves to white, a single gunshot is heard. Maybe one of the most significant things works like this can give someone sitting at a computer 5,700 miles away is a new way of emotionally grasping events that seem in many ways very distant.
