Image: Chancellor Olaf Scholz backed Baerbock’s banality-of-evil-like support for "Israel’s" right to mass-murder Palestinian civilians when he renewed his pledge to keep Germany’s arms-industry-to-genocide pipeline open for business. (Al Mayadeen English; Illustrated by Zeinab El-Hajj)

The German government’s renewed pledges to keep on aiding and abetting "Israel’s" war of extermination in Gaza are yet another stain on the moral track record of a nation whose superlative blood-stained history is currently being rivaled by "Israel".

There seems to be an appalling pattern to the German government’s "pro-Israel" foreign policy: The more intense the Netanyahu regime’s genocidal war against Gaza becomes and the louder global condemnation grows, the deeper Berlin burrows itself on the wrong side of history by doubling down on its diplomatic cover for "Israel’s" endless string of atrocity crimes and quelling any opposition to Germany’s vicious Staatsräson of wilfully being an apartheid entity’s servile lackey.

We have witnessed this diabolic correlation from the start of "Israel’s" ongoing campaign of extermination, with Germany hindering every attempt at accountability by coming to the Zionist regime’s rescue at international forums and brutalizing with ever-increasing viciousness the anti-war protest movement that has been taking to the streets and social media for the past year.

And we continue to see the full extent of German recalcitrance and sycophancy as "Israel" expands its Western-backed imperial war beyond the borders of historic Palestine into Lebanon and expedites its Naziesque "Final Solution" in northern Gaza, described by Palestine’s deputy permanent observer to the UN as "a genocide within a genocide."

As the horrific images of displaced people burning to death in their makeshift tents after "Israel" bombed the Al-Aqsa hospital compound in central Gaza’s Deir al-Balah shocked people across the world, Germany remained not only utterly unfazed by the horrors of yet another indescribable massacre perpetrated by the blood-thirsty Zionist war machine, but actively defended what Spanish MP and leader of the left-wing party Podemos, Ione Belarra, likened to Nazi gas chambers.

If anyone ever questioned how “in the tank” the mass media is for Kamala Harris and the Democrats, all they had to do was to listen to the Dana Bash interview with Harris on CNN recently. This was the first interview Harris has done since she was announced as a presidential candidate.

Crucially however, she was not asked one question about America’s most pressing security issue—the wide-open borders, both North and South. Even though Joe Biden named Harris as Border Czar more than three years ago.

The omission was because the media (ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, Fox, the New York Times, Washington Post and LA Times) are all part of the same cabal behind the Democrats, which effectively acts as their public relations arm to foist four more years of “Bidenomics” on America.

And exactly what is Bidenomics? It means inflation, higher taxes, more regulations, and fewer jobs and opportunities, while pitting illegal immigrant alien “newcomers” against an indigenous American labor force. Ultimately, it means the replacement of the traditional Democrat voting block with rootless illegal immigrants who will be both encouraged and allowed to vote for Democrats to keep them in office in perpetuity.

The people flooding over our borders in ever increasing waves are NOT “refugees” nor are they “asylum seekers.” They are not being prosecuted in their home countries for their religious or political beliefs. Rather they come to America with extended hands ready to grasp the fruit of the labor created by U.S. citizens and taxpayers, while essentially contributing nothing more than crime, and squalor, all while lowering the American standard of living.

The ridiculous bromide that they are more “law abiding” than American citizens is betrayed by the arrest records of illegal aliens in New York City, where fully THREE QUARTERS of all recent arrests for criminal conduct are for Illegals alien invaders. What did Americans do to deserve this?

China’s Voluntary Compliance With US Sanctions Prevents Russia From Paying Its SCO Dues. This wasn’t officially a secret, but it also wasn’t exactly public knowledge either.

Russia's Special Presidential Representative for SCO Affairs Bakhtiyor Khakimov revealed last week that “It's no secret, but we, for example, and I mean the Russian side, are facing serious difficulties in transferring our share contribution to the general budget of the SCO, because the bank is located in China, and, according to the basic documents, the share contribution is made only in US dollars.” China’s voluntary compliance with US sanctions therefore prevents Russia from paying its SCO dues.

Unlike what Khakimov claimed, while this wasn’t officially a secret, it wasn’t exactly public knowledge either. Many among the Mainstream Media and the Alt-Media Community alike are under the false impression that China proudly rebuffs all of the US’ sanctions demands due to Beijing’s sharp rhetoric about them. This is in spite of RT informing the world about Russia and China’s US-provoked payment problems in early September. They wrote about it here, which was then analyzed here.

Those who might have shrugged off that report as hyperbole or imagined that it was a “5D chess master plan” to “psyche out the US” like some on social media speculated now know that it was accurate after what Khakimov just revealed. China is so afraid of the US’ secondary sanctions threats that it won’t even let Russia pay its dollar-denominated SCO dues despite both being among its founding members. This reality is the exact opposite of what the general Western and non-Western public thought.

Few among them knew that the organization’s dues were denominated in dollars, which was probably agreed to at the turn of the century during its founding for reasons of financial convenience but wasn’t ever modified even after the West’s unprecedented sanctions against Russia since 2022. It’s frankly surprising that no changes were made after that nor any workarounds devised, so much so that Khakimov felt that he had to complain about this publicly, considering the SCO’s security-centric focus.

Russia considers NATO’s incursion into Ukraine to be an existential threat, and NATO has openly stated its intention to make Ukraine a member state after the war. Without a political settlement that restores Ukraine’s neutrality, Russia will therefore likely annex the strategic territories it cannot accept ending up under NATO control and then turning what remains of Ukraine into a dysfunctional rump state.

As the war is being lost, the rational policy for the Europeans would therefore be to offer an agreement based on ending NATO’s eastward expansion to save Ukrainian lives, territory, and the nation itself. Yet, no European leader has been able even to suggest such a solution publicly. Why?

Present the average European politician, journalist, or academic with the following thought experiment: If you were an advisor to the Kremlin, what would be your advice to Russia if there are no negotiations to resolve the Ukraine War? Most would feel morally compelled to give ridiculous answers such as advising the Kremlin to capitulate and withdraw, even if Russia is on the cusp of victory. Any impulse to adhere to reason and address Russia’s security concerns would likely be deterred by the threat of being shamed for “legitimizing” Russia’s invasion.

What explains the decline of strategic thinking, pragmatism, and rationality in European politics?

It's becoming very difficult for Israel and Iran to balance their own hawks’ demands, domestic public perception, and the perception of their opponent’s policymakers (which include hawkish elements).

Israel finally retaliated against Iran on Friday for Iran’s own prior retaliation against Israel earlier this month, which the Islamic Republic carried out against the self-professed Jewish State in an attempt to restore deterrence, in the second round of their dangerous tit-for-tat that first began in spring. Unlike Iran’s retaliation against Israel, Israel’s retaliation against Iran wasn’t widely filmed. It was also surprisingly restrained despite lots of earlier hype and concerns about an uncontrollable escalation.

No critical infrastructure, including Iran’s sole nuclear reactor and its oil refineries, was directly targeted but the New York Times cited unnamed sources from both countries to report that Israel destroyed surrounding air defenses in order to leave Iran open to a more painful attack if it retaliates to this one. Axios also reported that Israel warned Iran about its attack in advance via third parties in an attempt to deter retaliation that could risk everything spiraling into a larger conflict depending on how it plays out.

Iran announced that four of its soldiers had been killed and reaffirmed its right to respond. A high-ranking source reportedly told Tasnim that Iran is ready to do precisely that, though Sky News Arabia cited an anonymous source to report that Iran informed Israel via third parties that it won’t do so. Meanwhile, the Jerusalem Post reported that Israel does indeed expect retaliation, but it might be carried out via Iran’s regional allies in the Resistance Axis. It’s therefore unclear what’ll happen next.

Les BRICS ont une certaine potentialité, dans la mesure où leurs élites nationales sont réellement prêtes à ne pas jouer selon les règles atlantistes.

Le sommet des BRICS vient de se terminer hier à Kazan en Russie. S'il confirme l'intérêt de nombreux pays pour une autre vision du monde, la question centrale reste de savoir si les BRICS ont la capacité et la volonté de construire ce nouveau monde ou si cette organisation n'est pas finalement une énième structure globaliste régionale. Le refus de la Banque des BRICS d'investir en Russie et le "plan de paix" soutenu obligent à la prudence.

Les BRICS sont présentés comme cette force nouvelle, qui va assurément balayer de la volonté "souveraine" de ses membres le système de la globalisation. Les Etats-Unis en ont soi-disant peur, les "pro-russes" applaudissent à s'en rompre les bras. Cela ne se discute pas. Amen !

C'est le moment d'y regarder de plus près. Sans entrer dans tous les détails, deux éléments sont particulièrement significatifs et devraient faire réfléchir, ceux qui se cherchent une nouvelle idole à adorer.

La banque des BRICS opère conformément aux restrictions atlantistes

La Banque des BRICS, sur laquelle repose l'espoir d'un système financier plus "juste", plus "équitable", tient pourtant une étrange position : pas d'investissements en Russie pour éviter de tomber sous sanction et ne pas violer les règles globales. C'est le discours ferme tenu par sa nouvelle présidente, grande amie de la Russie - What else ?, Dilma Roussef, ancienne présidente du Brésil. Le "Sud global" est bien global, plus que géographique.

La banque des BRICS, appelée Nouvelle banque de Développement (NBD), a été instituée en 2014 en grande pompe comme une alternative au FMI. Son siège est à Shangaï. Elle doit financer des projets dans les pays membres, mais pas pour tous : uniquement pour ceux autorisés par le système global.

Outcomes of the BRICS summit: the course has been set, but there will be no easy way forward

Vladimir Putin's press conference on the BRICS summit results turned out to be an ideal finale because it enumerated the main points of the event and the difficult issues that need to be worked on.

The first and most important thing is that in BRICS, as the President emphasized, it is possible to work and achieve results with mutual respect and obligatory consideration of each other's interests. This is a definite plus: 35 states and six international organizations participated in the summit. However such equality places higher demands on the quality of dialog and mutual trust.

All predictions about who would be admitted to BRICS this time did not come true because no one was accepted. Instead, a category of "partner countries" emerged, which included Algeria, Belarus, Bolivia, Cuba, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Nigeria, Thailand, Turkey, Uganda, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, and Vietnam. Difficulties arose with Venezuela (opposed by Brazil) and Pakistan (opposed by India).

Stunts of All Time, Thanks to Kamala’s Blunder

“They want you poor, so they can be rich.
They want you weak, so they can be powerful.
They want you dumb, so they can be smart.
They want you guilty, so they can be innocent.
You cannot realize it, but you’re nothing more than a slave.”

~ Maria Karvouni

The fakery of life is a constant, whether at the top of the power pyramid or at the bottom of the common herd. The differences however, are stark, as the powerful control the narrative. The reporting criminals, those called the mainstream media, (and the pretend alternative media) are meant to support the top tier to the detriment of the all others. They abuse all those who listen, by promoting all the lies necessary to appease the collective crowd of fools, making them impotent in the face of tyranny. By these tactics, the media whores strive to protect the criminal state that supports them. The guilty are held out as 'gods,' while the innocents are treated as prisoners of society. As Steven McGee clearly stated, "Lies are the American way,' especially when any politicians, government, organized religion, or media speaks.

The truth will ultimately reveal itself, but for now, it’s best for Alt-Media to be skeptical.. It compellingly appears as though the latest reports are fake news.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissed a South Korean claim last week that North Korean troops had been sent to the special operation zone to fight Ukraine, yet Zelensky still ran with the report over the weekend, after which it was maximally amplified by Mainstream Media outlets like CNN. Some prominent Alt-Media accounts also lent credence to this story too. Ukrainian media then shortly thereafter alleged that 18 of these North Korean troops went AWOL near the international border.

These reports coincide with three developments: 1) Germany, which is Ukraine’s second-largest donor, just became the latest country after Poland to max out its military support; 2) Russia is preparing to ratify summer’s updated strategic partnership agreement with North Korea that reaffirms their mutual defense commitments; 3) and North Korean-South Korean tensions have once again begun to worsen. The relevance of each development to these latest reports will now be explained.

As the Gaza-Israel war progresses, American criticism of Israel has been gradually increasing, especially among younger Americans.

On September 2, U.S. President Biden publicly stated that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu had not done enough to rescue hostages held by Hamas. On the same day, Netanyahu bluntly responded, "No one is more committed to freeing the hostages than me... no one will preach to me on this issue." This marks yet another significant disagreement between the U.S. and Israeli leaders following the outbreak of the Gaza-Israel war on October 7, 2023.

As the Gaza-Israel war progresses, American criticism of Israel has been gradually increasing, especially among younger Americans. A Pew Research Center survey conducted between February 13-15, 2024, targeting American adults, showed that 38% found Israel’s military actions against Hamas acceptable, while 34% found them unacceptable. Among the 18-29 age group, only 21% considered Israel’s actions acceptable, while 46% found them unacceptable; 14% expressed complete or primary sympathy for Israelis, while 33% sympathized with Palestinians.

Moreover, Washington’s bias toward Israel has encountered some resistance in U.S. mainstream media, including CNN. Nearly 1,500 American journalists issued a public statement condemning Israel for killing journalists in Gaza and urging Western media to report honestly on Israel’s atrocities against Palestinians. Social media platforms, particularly TikTok, have become powerful channels for sharing the realities of the Gaza war, bringing the brutal scenes in Gaza directly to the American public. This has further increased sympathy and support for Palestinians among Americans.

Note: This piece points up Kamala Harris's sheer hypocrisy, as well as the sell-out of Trump, Harris, and RFK Jr. on the "Palestine problem." It also highlights the vast undercount of the official death toll. 40,000? 300,000 murdered thus far by Zionist Jews supported by the US and UK is much closer to reality.[*] The Vietnam War-era chant against mass murderer Lyndon Johnson ("How many kids did you kill today?") has been updated to reflect America's ongoing wars against Russia and Palestine. Why aren't millions of people out in the streets of every major US and European city demanding an end to BOTH of these criminal campaigns?

Moldova is a deeply divided society as the latest referendum results show even if one ignores credible suspicions of fraud in support of the winning side

Moldovan President Maia Sandu boasted about how the referendum that she initiated for joining the EU narrowly passed despite the allegedly “unfair fight” against her side that she blamed on allegedly foreign-backed “criminal groups” who supposedly tried to buy off 300,000 votes. EU spokesman Peter Strano was more direct in declaring that “We noted that this vote took place under unprecedented interference and intimidation by Russia and its proxies aiming to destabilize the democratic processes.”

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov demanded that “some evidence (of this purported fraud) be presented to the public” and questioned the results after a dramatic late turnaround for the pro-EU side that suspiciously resembled what happened in some swing states during the US’ 2020 elections. The opposition also reported hundreds of violations while Irish journalist Chay Bowes claimed that Moldova only made 10,000 ballots available in Russia despite half a million expats being eligible to vote.

It also deserves mentioning that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen visited Moldova earlier this month where she promised its people nearly $2 billion in financial support from her bloc over the next three years. Moreover, the lead-up to this referendum and the presidential election that were held on the same day (the first round of which Sandu won so a run-off will be held on 3 November) saw state-sponsored repression of the opposition, including defamatory claims that they’re backed by Russia. All of this made Moldova’s EU referendum neither free nor fair.

One fine morning in February, 3-year-old Palestinian boy Imad Hazem excitedly rushed to buy oranges from a street vendor. Eager to eat his favorite fruit, he hurried back home.

While crossing a street in the Sheikh Radwan area of Gaza City, three kilometers from the city center, an Israeli sniper shot and killed him and his 20-year-old cousin Hadeel on the spot.

A graphic video documenting the crime went viral on social media, showing the bodies of the young child and his cousin.

In January, an Israeli sniper killed 13-year-old Nahid and 20-year-old Ramez Barbak in the Al-Amal neighborhood of Khan Younis, a city in the southern Gaza Strip.

Following Israel's evacuation orders, Nahid was waving a white flag above his head when he was shot just outside his house. Ramez ran to save his younger brother, only to be shot in the chest, falling over Nahid and the white flag.

Their bodies remained unattended on the road for hours as their family, unable to approach due to continuous Israeli gunfire and bombings, watched helplessly.

All Four to "Kick-Off" World War 3 - Or Will it be Trump Assassination that does it?

Right now, there is the Russia-Ukraine Conflict, a slow-simmering, but soon-to-be-hot, Israel-Iran conflict, the ominous China-Taiwan situation, and now North Korea-South Korea. Are all four going to kick-off for World War 3 this month? It looks that way.

Let's begin with the Russia-Ukraine thing. Ukraine is losing. Badly. There is no hope for Ukraine to prevail, or even to survive without direct NATO entry into the conflict. If NATO enters the conflict, then that is immediate, NUCLEAR, World War 3.

A well known Geo-Political Expert in Finland, Thomas Malinen, says he believes the situation for the collective West with the Russia-Ukraine war is at the point where "the future of NATO is at-stake" and as such, he believes a "bat-shit crazy escalation" must (and is going to) take place. He says:

He points out that there have already been two distinct Ukraine counter-offensives, both of which failed miserably. The first, vaunted "Spring Counter-offensive" in 2023, fell on its face. Complete failure. The second, Ukraine's invasion of Kursk, Russia, which is an unmitigated disaster with losses of manpower and equipment so bad, it is literally a slaughter of Ukraine.

The ball is in the US’ court when it comes to the future of ties with India.

Indian-Canadian ties were toxified in late September 2023 after Trudeau accused that country of assassinating a Delhi-designated terrorist-separatist with dual citizenship on its soil earlier that summer. India denied the allegations and briefly suspended visas for Canadian citizens.

The US then leveled its own similar accusations against India, which greatly harmed mutual trust, but India has thus far managed this dispute much better than the one with Canada. Here are five background briefings:

The latest development on this front was India expelling six Canadian diplomats, including the High Commissioner, after Trudeau accused the Indian High Commissioner and others of direct involvement in summer 2023’s assassination despite continuing to withhold any evidence in support of this claim. Trudeau subsequently said that Canada received proof about their alleged involvement from the Five Eyes intelligence-sharing alliance that’s led by the US.

Non-nuclear Iran is incapable of existentially threatening the US as nuclear-armed Russia could.

Politico cited a senior Senate aid and two sources in the Biden Administration to report on Wednesday that the US is much more afraid of an uncontrollable escalation sequence with Russia than with Iran due to the first’s nuclear capabilities.

As proof of this, the US has no qualms about shooting down Iranian missiles launched against Israel but won’t consider shooting down Russian ones launched against Ukraine, which has upset Zelensky and some of his compatriots who thus feel like second-class allies.

The difference between Russia/Ukraine and Iran/Israel in this regard accounts for the US’ different approach towards each pair. As was explained last month in this analysis about why “Putin Explicitly Confirmed What Was Already Self-Evident About Russia’s Nuclear Doctrine”, the comparatively more pragmatic policymakers who still have the final say in Russia and the US have thus far managed to avoid the uncontrollable escalation sequence that their respective hawkish rivals want. Here’s how they did it:

The decision of the US and UK to conduct a proxy war led to the unavoidable Istanbul+ endgame

In February 2022, Russia started its military operation against Ukraine to impose a settlement after a group of NATO countries had undermined the Minsk II peace agreement for seven years. On the first day after the start of hostilities, Vladimir Zelensky confirmed that Moscow had contacted him to discuss negotiations based on restoring Ukrainian neutrality. On the third day, Russia and Ukraine agreed to start peace negotiations based on a Russian military withdrawal in return for this. Zelensky responded favorably to this condition, and he even called for a “collective security agreement” to include Russia to mitigate the security competition that had sparked the war.

The talks that followed are referred to as the Istanbul negotiations, in which Russia and Ukraine were close to an agreement before the US and UK sabotaged it, according to numerous claims by people close to the process.

Washington rejects negotiations without preconditions

For Washington, there were great incentives to use the large proxy army it had built in Ukraine to weaken Russia as a strategic rival, rather than accepting a neutral Kiev. On the first day after the start of the military operation, when Zelensky responded favorably to starting negotiations without preconditions, US State Department spokesperson Ned Price rejected this stance – saying Russia would first have to withdraw all its forces.

💬 “Now we see Moscow suggesting that diplomacy take place at the barrel of a gun or as Moscow’s rockets, mortars, artillery target the Ukrainian people. This is not real diplomacy… If President Putin is serious about diplomacy, he knows what he can do. He should immediately stop the bombing campaign against civilians, order the withdrawal of his forces from Ukraine, and indicate very clearly, unambiguously to the world, that Moscow is prepared to de-escalate.”

Ukraine Humiliated Western Propagandists After Its Defense Minister Admitted It’s A NATO Proxy. Defense Minister Alexei Reznikov’s description of the Ukrainian-NATO relationship perfectly aligns with Merriam-Webster’s definition of a proxy. Their official website informs readers that “A proxy may refer to a person who is authorized to act for another or it may designate the function or authority of serving in another’s stead.”

The objectively existing military-strategic dynamics of the Ukrainian Conflict coupled with Reznikov’s candid admission therefore leave no doubt about the fact that Ukraine is a NATO proxy by definition.

The US-led West’s Mainstream Media (MSM) has insisted over the past 10,5 months that President Putin is supposedly insane for considering Ukraine a NATO proxy whose close military ties with that explicitly anti-Russian bloc pose a serious threat to his country’s national security red lines. Their perception managers subsequently expanded upon their gaslighting operation to discredit Russia’s special operation on the false basis that it’s driven by so-called “imperialism” and not self-defense.

Every single one of the countless information warfare products that they’ve since created was just exposed as fraudulent by none other than Ukrainian Defense Minister Alexei Reznikov, who admitted during an appearance on national TV on Thursday that their country is indeed a NATO proxy.

Out of concern about an Israeli strike, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian will soon enter the "strongest bunker in the world" alongside Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

Israel claims it has a "right" to retaliate for Iran's recent ballistic missile attack, wherein about 200 ballistic missiles were launched from Iran into Israel.

Israel does NOT have any such right because that missile barrage was a RESPONSE to attacks made earlier by Israel itself!

Israel blew up a building in Tehran, Iran, to assassinate Ismail Heniyeh, of HAMAS, who was in Tehran. That detonation of a bomb to kill a man on Iran soil __was__ in and of itself, an "attack" upon Iran.

Iran had the right to strike back, under United Nations Charter, Article 51. Hence, Israel has no right to respond, it hit first.

Iran has made it explicitly clear that if Israel attacks them again, they "are ready to respond within 15 minutes" and that response will be "massive" and go after Israeli infrastructure: Power plants, water processing plants, bridges, military bases, etc.

The United States has made clear it will defend Israel, and is sending yet another Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missile system to Israel, right now, which will arrive in the wee hours of the morning tomorrow. The U.S. also admits it is sending "100 troops to operate that system.

Something big is coming, and whatever it is, there’s now a heightened chance that the US will become directly involved.

The Pentagon confirmed that it’ll dispatch nearly 100 troops to Israel to operate one of its premier air defense systems, the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD), of which it only has seven in total. This comes ahead of Israel’s expected retaliation to Iran’s latest missile strike on the first of the month that it carried out to restore deterrence after the assassination of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran and Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut. Here’s what this latest US move signifies:


1. Israel Is Probably Planning Something Big

Rumors have abounded about what exactly Israel is planning, but it’s probably something big and will provoke at least proportional retaliation from Iran, hence why the self-professed Jewish State requested that the US deploy one of its few THAADs to help defend it afterwards.
