HOW UKRAINE AND WEST ASIA MIGHT BEGIN COPING WITH A SECOND TRUMP PRESIDENCY

โœ๏ธWritten by Chee Hing and Hikaru Kitabayashiโœ๏ธ

From the perspective of Palestine it would be better if the U.S. descends into civil war. It would not be good for ordinary Americans, but it will be better than what the Palestinians are suffering now.
American society has avoided direct suffering through the two World Wars and the countless wars and "revolutions" perpetrated and abetted by U.S. governments.

Concerning the possibility of a civil war, it is, in fact, unlikely to go that far, even though this will certainly not be the last assassination attempt by Clinton/Obama faction deep state operatives. But, if the next assassination attempt is more successful, it will badly destabilize American society. Clearly, certain elements of the Secret Service are out to get Trump assassinated. Thus, a Palestinian hope that Mr. Trump does not institute a protocol for vetting government agents assigned to him for his protection would be understandable.

The situation is not getting any better for Palestine. Hezbollah and Iran are holding back, waiting for a direct Israeli invasion of Lebanon, which will probably never come because it is to Israel's advantage to just continue using its air power to attrite its enemies and inflict civilian deaths.

Political entities, nevertheless, would do well to act proactively on the assumption that a Trump-Vance ticket will overwhelmingly win. Iran should seriously ramp up its nuclear weapons program and should be actively exploring military applications of laser technology. If it has nuclear weapons available and laser weapons technology in development before Mr. Trump's next term of office begins, the only option left for Mr. Trump's government would be to talk tough but stay clear of actual confrontation.

The government of Ukraine needs to be actively moving out of the Eastern and Southern parts of Ukraine and should focus on establishing government structures in the Far West of the country. Preparations should be made in secret for peace negotiations with Russia and large losses of territory. The focus can no longer be on winning, but on minimizing what are going to be humiliating losses.

Hamas, Hezbollah, and Ansar Allah of Yemen should focus on their smuggling activities and on their local weapons production in underground facilities. A successful invasion of Israel by Hezbollah or Saudi Arabia by Ansar Allah seem to be beyond their capabilities. However, Just as an invasion of Gaza has proven to be beyond Israel's abilities, if invaded, Hezbollah would certainly be quite capable of defeating Israel in Lebanon and Ansar Allah of defeating Saudi Arabia in Yemen. Until then, hit and run attrition tactics seem to be the best military option for all sides.

The main hope for the Palestinian cause would be for Hezbollah to find some way of insulting the Zionist state so badly that mass psychosis would demand an immediate Zionist invasion of Lebanon. Perhaps a carefully planned Hamas style two-day "invasion" of Israel, focusing on taking hostages and followed by a quick retreat would do the trick. In any case, considering the close relationship Mr. Netanyahu has with Mr. Trump's son-in-law and considering the antipathy of both Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance toward Iran, a Zionist invasion of Lebanon before Mr. Trump becomes president again would seem to be better for the Palestinian cause than one than one that would take place after his presidency begins.

Enter J.D. Vance

J.D. Vance was born James David Bowman into a working-class family in Middletown, Ohio, on August 2, 1984. His upbringing was marked by significant challenges, including economic instability and his motherโ€™s battle with addiction, which led to multiple unstable relationships and marriages, resulting in several stepfathers. Despite these difficulties, his grandparents provided crucial stability and support in his life. Their influence and the struggles of his family are central themes in his memoir, "Hillbilly Elegy," which explores the socioeconomic challenges faced by white working-class Americans.

One of J.D.โ€™s stepfathers, Bob Vance, played a particularly significant and positive role, eventually leading J.D. to adopt his last name.

J.D. Vance formally entered politics when he announced his candidacy for the U.S. Senate as a Republican in Ohio in July 2021. His campaign was successful, and on January 3, 2023, J.D. Vance assumed office as the United States Senator representing Ohio.

Vanceโ€™s life journey is a striking example of the lengths some people will go to achieve personal ambition, even at the cost of their principles. Initially a vocal critic of Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign, Vance once referred to Trump as "America's Hitler" in a text message, reflecting his deep reservations about the candidate. He portrayed Trump as a demagogue who exploited the frustrations of working-class Americans without offering meaningful solutions.

However, as Vance transitioned from author and commentator to political candidate, his stance underwent a dramatic change. While running for Senate in Ohio, Vance aligned himself with Trump and his "America First" agenda. This shift was not merely a subtle adjustment but a complete reversal, prompting scrutiny and raising questions about his integrity.

Vanceโ€™s endorsement of Trump and embrace of his populist policies highlight a troubling willingness to abandon earlier convictions for political expediency. It suggests that Vance's principles are flexible, adjusted to suit his ambitions rather than rooted in steadfast belief. His journey from Trump critic to staunch supporter appears less about ideological evolution and more about opportunistic maneuvering.

In a political landscape increasingly devoid of authenticity, Vanceโ€™s transformation underscores the hypocrisy that can pervade public life in the U.S. His readiness to pivot positions underscores a broader issue: the pursuit of power often eclipses adherence to consistent values.

The good news, however, is that if peace and prosperity in the world happen to align with Vanceโ€™s political ambitions, we can expect him to work extremely hard to achieve it. His drive and adaptability, when directed towards positive outcomes, could potentially yield significant benefits for society.

Allies betray Biden: Pelosi urges leader to drop out of presidential race

Former House speaker Nancy Pelosi has urged US President Joe Biden to drop his bid for re-election, the Politico website reported, quoting sources.

Pelosi reportedly spoke with Biden last week, warning him that complaints from Congress Democrats about his apparent political weakness will only grow louder, according to Politico. The former speaker also asked Biden to hurry up and take the decision to step down.

According to one of Pelosi's allies, she could potentially go public with her demands for Biden to withdraw his candidacy. While she does not want to call on Biden to drop out, Pelosi will do everything she can to make that happen, the source said.

Scholzโ€™s role in 1980s anti-missile protests resurfaces as Germany faces similar deployment

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius has rejected comparisons between the Biden administrationโ€™s plans to station long-range missiles in Germany and the 1980s Euromissile crisis, which brought the world to the brink of annihilation. Are there any similarities? Hereโ€™s what happened forty years ago:

๐ŸŒ European NATO allies took delivery of hundreds of US Pershing II ballistic and Tomahawk nuclear cruise missiles in 1983, in accordance with a 1979 pact to deploy weapons that could reach the USSR if Moscow did not eliminate its intermediate-range missiles. Moscow had scoffed at the demand that it, a European land power, should make concessions of a kind that the US โ€“ separated from Europe by an ocean, did not.

๐ŸŒ The deployment sparked the Euromissile crisis โ€“ resulting in the largest peace protests in Europe in over a century. US peace movement historian Lawrence Wittner estimates that five million people worldwide took part in nuclear disarmament demonstrations in October 1983, three million of them in Western Europe. German historian Benjamin Ziemann called the campaign โ€œone of the biggest popular mass movements in modern European history,โ€ which โ€œin terms of the number of people it brought to the streets and the degree of unrest it expressed and channeledโ€ฆis perhaps only comparable with the revolutionary movements in 1848/49.โ€

๐ŸŒ Among the protesters demonstrating against the prospect of instantaneous nuclear annihilation was a younger, bushier-haired Olaf Scholz, who was deputy chairman of the SPDโ€™s youth wing at the time.

๐ŸŒ The fears caused by the Euromissiles were not mere paranoia. In November 1983, Moscow put its nuclear forces on hair trigger alert in preparation to respond to NATO aggression after the alliance kicked off its Able Archer war games, which simulated an all-out attack on the USSR. NATO didnโ€™t recognize the seriousness of the nuclear danger caused by its provocations until many years later.
