🧋Cunning Stunt? Nigel Farage’s ‘Milkshake Attack’ Plot Thickens

It appears the racist rascal could be fairly well acquainted with the lady who “assaulted” him Tuesday.

Farage dubbed the “attack” as “frightening” when speaking to the British press afterwards.

A woman has been arrested.

Brazil will send its ambassador to the “peace summit” on Ukraine in Switzerland

According to the newspaper O Globo, President Lula da Silva himself is not going to go to the event due to the absence of Russia. He does not intend to send high-ranking officials there either.

However, the final decision will depend on the position of the organizers, who initially stated that only heads of state or members of government could attend the summit.

🇺🇸 Biden's condition behind closed doors shows signs of slipping, the WSJ writes.

The newspaper spoke to more than 45 knowledgeable politicians. The sources cited an example of a meeting between the US president and congressional leaders. According to them, Biden read from notes and sometimes closed his eyes for so long that some wondered if he had passed out.

Other interviewees recalled Biden's conversations with House Republicans. On some days, he had 'loose and spontaneous conversations'; on others, he mumbled and 'seemed to rely on notes,' the article says.

Earlier, The Sun, referring to a survey, wrote that Americans are seriously concerned about 81-year-old Biden's cognitive abilities.

WHEN MEMORIAL DAY ON-DUTY MILITARY PRAISE STRIKES A RAW NERVE

✍️Written by Wassim Morjane✍️

✍️Edited by Hikaru Kitabayashi✍️

During the US memorial day holiday, an American posted a dedication to her grandfather, a World War II veteran. That was not bothering. He fought against Naziism and fascism. 

But, like many such postings, it also praised on-duty soldiers. After all that has happened in West Asia, how could anyone praise them? Some will say orders are orders. It's not their fault. However, many soldiers have committed criminal acts, using that excuse, while others have watched atrocities being committed without doing anything and are, thereby, complicit. 

It seems mind-blowing American people remain unaware their army is being used to support a war in West Asia against people who are fighting against a genocide. Why can't they see, that, in praising the members of such a military, they, too, become complicit in genocide? Many blame political institutions. But, it's not that easy. The US military is also a formidable political power. It always get its way. It's no accident that for almost 30 years, it has failed every government financial audit with no punishment for the now trillion or more dollars gone missing. Deep state authority figures give orders, and subordinates apply those orders. Maybe, ordinary soldiers have also forgotten how to to refuse to commit crimes against humanity. Or, maybe they don't see “third-worlders” as human beings. Maybe they've learned not to think about moral codes. Who knows? 

But, what about my grandfather? What was he doing during WW2? Well, he wasn't acting as cannon fodder for an imperial power. He was fighting an imperial occupation. And, that's what shapes us, we, the peoples of formerly forcefully colonized and occupied countries. That is what enables us to relate to what's happening to the Palestinians and to others. We understand what's happening is wrong. We can feel it in our bones, because many of our ancestors lived out that experience and taught us its horrible history. It's part of the mother's milk of our childhood. WE KNOW. We do not forget that those we were listening to were living spectators to terrors no moral code can forgive! And, as for us, we are all being forced to become spectators of the genocide in Palestine, a holocaust that is happening thanks to the military aid and protection being given by the United States to the Zionist political entity.

The ex-United States president Jimmy Carter once said that the American and Israeli people “don't want to know”. As long as they are not impacted, they don't care! Their military industrial spy community complexes are, thus, allowed to run wild, with zero accountability, whether financial or moral. 

Is this derived from the illusion of “exceptionalism” or is it something else inherent in American culture? Is it ignorance, or is it a need to feel superior? Or, is it just a deep state way of organizing American society for easier control? 

In the last 30 years, the United States armed forces have directly wreaked destruction on Libya, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Yemen, and Somalia. If covert interventions are considered, there is no region of the world which has escaped this military industrial spy organization conglomerate, whose reach extends not only to genocide, but also to the illegal drug trade, human trafficking, organ harvesting, arms smuggling, and money laundering. But, Americans still feel they should praise current military members. After all, the military, itself, seems blind to what it's in bed with. If so, we all deserve better.

As for those afflicted by evil, may they stand strong in their resistance. They deserve our praise, material assistance, and every prayer we can make on their behalf. Long live the resistance!

I am against the occupiers!

A girl from Ukraine explains why she is strongly against the occupiers, who do whatever they want in her home country. But who do you think those occupiers are, in her opinion? A very entertaining revelation.

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ The RFAF entered #Razdolovka in #Seversk Sector of #Svatovo Direction⚡️

🇷🇺 Map Adjustment based on the progress of the 51st Guards Parachute Regiment. During the 4 months of the offensive, more than 25 sq km have been taken.

🔵 The main obstacle at the moment remains the fortifications to the northwest and west of #Razdolovka, on which the defence of the settlement rests, see Map 2. The offensive continues.

🔴 The village boundaries extend to the northeast, I marked it on the map with a blue arrow. So the village is now contested (if Google Maps is right)!

However, there is a danger that the mobilisation officers themselves are hiding behind this 'service'.

WASHINGTON, June 4 (Reuters) - The Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation that would impose sanctions on the International Criminal Court over its prosecutor's decision to seek arrest warrants for Israeli officials related to the war in Gaza.

The vote was 247 to 155, with 42 Democrats joining Republicans in backing the measure. There were no Republican "nay" votes, although two voted "present."
The measure is not expected to become law, but reflects continuing support for Israel in Congress amid international criticism over the Middle East country's campaign in the Gaza Strip.

The White House last month criticized the ICC's decision to seek the warrants.

The bill is not expected to be brought up for a vote in the Senate, which is narrowly controlled by Biden's fellow Democrats.

The legislation, opens new tab would impose sanctions on people involved in ICC prosecutions of Americans or citizens of U.S. allies that are not ICC members, including Israel.

It also would block such ICC officials' entry to the United States, revoke any U.S. visas and restrict them from U.S. property transactions.

💛📺🇮🇱🇸🇾🇸🇾 An interview with ex-Mossad director Efraim Halevi has gone viral on social networks again, where he admitted that Israel supported the al-Qaeda branch and other groups against President Bashar al-Assad in Syria.

⚫️ 🇸🇾 Israel has collaborated for several years with al-Qaeda-led “rebels” in and around the Golan Heights (much of the Golan is occupied by Israel). First of all, we are talking about Jabhat al-Nusra (now Hayat Tahrir al-Sham), the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda.

Israel helped Syrian militants. Aid primarily took the form of treating wounded al-Qaeda members; they were then released back to Syria. Some UN reports say military assistance may also have taken place.

✡️ Yet anti-Israel rhetoric has been coming from al-Qaeda propagandists and leaders for decades.

🟡 Under pressure from Mehdi Hassan, the former Mossad chief admitted that Hezbollah members would not have been treated in Israel, nor would they have been released back to Lebanon or Syria.

🤬🚨Is this the Ukraine the West supports? Ukranian soldiers apparently fighting for "Western values" showing just how racist they are, hurling racist obscenities towards African men before executing them.

Racism and war crimes - Ukraine is a fascist, terrorist regime that will be held accountable for its crimes against humanity.

I do not expect missiles to hit cities at this stage

▪️For Kiev, it's important to show that it's "the good guy." The summit in Switzerland is in two weeks: Ukraine will definitely not do such a thing before that, because it would be political suicide.

▪️So far, they target military facilities. Next, they may well use ATACMS to strike at military and industrial facilities inside Russian cities. The jamming system may direct a missile away from a military factory, and it may hit a house nearby.

▪️But they will be very careful for now. I think nothing will change fundamentally in the coming weeks.

Ukrainian counter-offensive near Kharkov

▪️The political leadership in Kiev has not taken into account the main thing: the situation has changed a lot, the Russian army has changed. Kiev's capabilities are much weaker than a year ago, when they were preparing a powerful blow, which the valiant 58th Army led by General Popov repelled. Back then, they had their chance.

They have no chances for global success now. At most, they could try to knock the Russians out of Volchansk before the summit. They tried. It didn't work. On the contrary, the Russian command has set the task of turning the situation around and continuing the offensive in order to humiliate Ukraine on the eve of the summit.

▪️Volchansk: Most high-rise buildings are under Russian control. The front line is very dynamic, moving back and forth 100-200 meters every day - I would disregard that for now.

▪️Ukraine has clearly had no success. By knocking out the best Ukrainians in pointless attacks, the Russians gain a strategic advantage.

How important is the liberation of Kharkov for creating a buffer zone? That is, if the city is not taken, but it is surrounded, and there is no shooting from there, will this make Russian territories safe?

▪️No, it won't. Unfortunately, ATACMS have a range of up to 300 kilometers. So everything east of the Dnieper should be a security zone at the very least.
