โ—พExactly two years ago, on August 20, 2022, a bomb attack claimed the life of Russian journalist Darya Dugina. That brutal and cold-blooded murder was premeditated and perpetrated by the Ukrainian special services on direct orders from the terrorist Zelensky regime.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces' defense in Donbass was left without shells and soldiers after the offensive on the Kursk region , accelerating Russia's breakthrough, - Financial Times.

โ–ช๏ธThis operation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, on the contrary, even accelerated Russia's offensive in Donbas. This happened, in particular, due to the withdrawal of up to 10,000 Ukrainian Armed Forces troops from this section of the front, including elite airborne assault units.
โ–ช๏ธPriority in providing ammunition, as well as soldiers, is now given to the Kursk direction, officers transferred from Donbass to Russian territory told FT.

Biden approved the first secret nuclear strategy that focuses on possible coordinated threats from Russia, China and the DPRK.

President Biden approved in March a highly classified nuclear strategic plan for the United States that, for the first time, reorients Americaโ€™s deterrent strategy to focus on Chinaโ€™s rapid expansion in its nuclear arsenal.

The shift comes as the Pentagon believes Chinaโ€™s stockpiles will rival the size and diversity of the USโ€™ and Russiaโ€™s over the next decade.

The White House never announced that Biden had approved the revised strategy, called the โ€œNuclear Employment Guidance,โ€ which also newly seeks to prepare the US for possible coordinated nuclear challenges from China, Russia and North Korea.

In the past, the likelihood that US adversaries could coordinate nuclear threats to outmaneuver the US seemed remote. But the emerging partnership between Russia and China, and the arms DPRK and Iran are providing to Russia for the war in Ukraine have changed US thinking.

Bloomberg writes that a number of Ukraine's allies have not yet provided the promised air defense systems to Kiev. And, the article says, they will definitely not provide anything until autumn.
And against this background, a grubby man in a dirty green sweatsuit begs for more and more.

WAIT COULD BE LONG: IRGC spokesman Naeni (above photo) keeps Israel on perpetual high alert, reminding them that Iran's retaliation on Israel won't be as quick, predictable and as conventional as Tel Aviv hopes.

It's never happened that we didn't respond to an attack on Iranian targets, and Israelis will have to wait for the response that will come at the time we choose - Naini.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ˜ก ISRAELI DIPLOMAT ERDAN CALLS FOR DESTRUCTION OF UN'S U.S. HQ IN NEW YORK, openly declaring massive complex "should be wiped off face of earth" in brazen interview with country's media (pictured above).

Taking stroll through HQ's hallway (video above), he demands dismantling building that "may look nice from outside, but is actually twisted and distorted".

His rage comes at expense of victims of terror, expressing whataboutism (00:31) as to why victims of October 7 not included in mural of remembrance to casualties worldwide, failing to mention that neither are 40,000+ Palestinians murdered by Tel Aviv since.

Now imagine how different Washington's response would be, currently crickets, if Russian or Iranian envoy literally called for bombing of New York! ๐Ÿ˜ณ

A familiar scene in Odessa: a man waving a weapon threatens a military commissar: "I'll kill you now!"

This is how an Odessa resident responded to a military commissar's attempt to mobilize him.

WHEN HANNIBAL'S NOT A CANNIBAL AND A QUEEN'S TOO HOT TO HANDLE

โœ๏ธ Written by Wassim Morjane โœ๏ธ

โœ๏ธ Edited by Hikaru Kitabayashi โœ๏ธ

The words "Hannibal directive" or "Hannibal protocol" stick in the minds of Tunisians, a country where Hannibal is historically celebrated as a national hero. A Tunisian would assume that the person who thought of the term must have been of Tunisian origin. But, Google search indicates it is only a โ€œrandomly computer generated nameโ€. Of course, Zionist Israel being Zionist Israel, this can't automatically be taken at face value. 

Actually, the 1986 protocol creator was โ€œYossi Peledโ€, a Belgium born Hebrew. It came into existence after the Jibril Accord, which saw the exchange of 1,150 Palestinian hostages, including Palestinian leaders, for just THREE Israelis!

In order to avoid such scenarios, the protocol demands that the lives of those Israeli soldiers about to be captured or already captured should be disregarded, even if it means killing them as a result. 

Which gets us back to Hannibal Barca, the Carthagian (=Tunisian) general who brought the very existence of the Roman Empire into question before being finally defeated. Later, in exile, when he found himself surrounded in a village in today's Turkey, he chose suicide instead of letting himself be captured. Hannibal's life ending has enough in common with the Israeli โ€œHannibal policy" to make this explanation of the name's origin more plausible than that of it being โ€œcomputer generatedโ€. 

But this doesn't explain why they're still killing civilians. After all, out of the 250 Israelis captured on October 7th, 70 are believed to have died directly because of Israeli military actions. Palestinian numbers are reliably estimated as now being 186,000. 

Why indiscriminate genocide? It can be explained by the Israeli Dahiya doctrine, a 2008 tactic that was used against Hezbollah. The Israelis say that the name comes from the first Beirut Shiite neighborhood it was used in. However, knowing that Queen Dahya, an Amazigh (North African Berber) monarch used a scorch earth policy to resist Arab 7th and 8th century conquests and knowing that the doctrine inventor was โ€œGadi Eizenkotโ€, a Hebrew whose parents were both Moroccans and who was a previously chief of staff of the Israeli army and a former member of the post October 7th war cabinet, a more logical identification with the queen suggested itself. 

After all, many North African Amazighen people do not identity as Arabs. And, as in the case of the Kurds, the Zionists tend to be supportive, promoting an image of Arabs as bloody oppressors, not only of the Hebrews, but these peoples, too.

To explain why Queen Dahya might resonate with Mr. Eisenkot, in order to slow down the Arab army and give her own army a better chance at resistance. her scorched earth strategy showed a total disregard for civilian losses. It must have been gratifying for Gadi to use a similar sounding name to that of the queen when naming a doctrine that abolished all distinctions between armed militants and unarmed civilians. 

It seems that Israeli Zionists, with so few years of military history, enjoy appropriating other peoples' histories when justifying their total disregard for human life. 

So why did Zionists lose touch with their basic humanity? Zionist propaganda? An atrocious past? A byproduct of a sense of superiority that they are indoctrinated with from their earliest childhood? In the end, though, they've made one thing clear. They are not victims, just as their spiritual antecessors, Hitler and his fellow Nazis, were not victims! Their much vaunted victimhood status comes as a result of theft from the same people they stole the land they occupy in Palestine from. But victimhood theft can not create a true victim. Theft remains theft.
