⚡WikiLeaks:

Verified document from Israeli Ministry of Intelligence on October 13 suggests forced displacement of Gaza civilians to Egypt would "yield positive and long term strategic results"

The advisory document envisions a three stage process including the establishment of tent cities in Sinai and opening of humanitarian corridor, followed by construction of cities in northerm Sinai from which there would be no return Gaza.

***Allegations made against the UK National Union of Journalists.***

https://twitter.com/DrDominicGreen/status/1730716976937398358


Dr Dominic Green very recently supplied Elon Musks publishing
outlet "X" with a very damaging and controversial statement aimed
at UK Guardian Journalist Owen Jones,at about the same time more or
less when a statement was issued in Nairaland/Wikileaks naming
Owen Jones involvement with far right wing racist David Irving the
publisher of the Holocaust Denial publication Goring Biography.

Goring Biography was used as evidence in court to convict
Irving of being a racist,antisemitic nazi sympathizer and
producer of Holocaust Denial publications.An NUJ member
Albert Smith a former senior editor of the Irish Independent
Newspaper has allegedly named his company PARPOINT from
the Blood and honour of PARforce and FocalPOINT(Irvings racist
publishing outlets) and appears inside the digital revised
Goring Biography describing the publication as quote
"a good offering".Irving was fined over 2.5 million
US dollars in court.

The NUJ we believe should be investigated for allowing its
own members to provide copyright to the antisemitic,racist,
holocaust denial publishers Parforce and allowing its own
members to appearing in Holocaust Denial publications
making very obvious disturbed political comments that are
completely out of context with NUJ policies and guidelines.

Owen Jones as with many other writers and publishers is very
much aware of the allegations made against the NUJ for not
removing Racists sympathizers from the NUJ however
remains apparently silent upon this entire subject despite
claiming to be an antifascist and a journalist credited
Internationally for exposing Conservative MP Gove
for owning Parforce Propaganda.The Guardian Newspaper
and other organizations and British politicians were issued
with press releases some time ago regarding allegations
made specifically about the NUJ member and his own personal
involvement with a Parforce Holocaust Denial publication..

page 16 Goring Biography contains Albert Smiths own
produced copyrighted material.(PARPOINT)

page 14 contains the names of the two companies that
produced Goring Biography digital edition
named as
(i) PARforce
(ii)FocalPOINT


IRVING VS. (1) LIPSTADT AND (2) PENGUIN BOOKS
Irving’s claim that the 1991 edition of Hitler’s War and the 1989 biography of
Göring indicate that he is not a Holocaust denier is not credible when the
Index references he cites in support of this contention are actually consulted.
Both books give an account of Nazi policies and actions towards the Jews dur-
ing the Second World War that is perfectly compatible with the central tenets of
Holocaust denial as this is normally understood by historians.

Irving’s connections and relationships with well-known Holocaust deniers are nu-
merous and often close. They indicate that he is part of a loosely-organized interna-
tional network of Holocaust deniers, whose central institution is the so-called Insti-
tute for Historical Review. Many of Irving’s contacts with Holocaust deniers are also
part of his widespread connections in the world of extreme right-wing politics; these
are detailed in the expert reports submitted by Professor Eatwell and Professor Funke.

Its impossible the company name PARPOINT isnt derived from both (PAR)force and Focal(POINT)
as the three companies appear inside the same digitally produced Holocaust denial
publication together at the same time.Company names are either randomly or specifically
chosen.The math probability of PARPOINT in this instance being randomly chosen should
be decided upon inside of a hearing for religous, political and criminal reasons and for the
protection of citizens within applicable European and other world countries.

As writers we condem Parforce and others that support and uphold to their publications.
and Thank Nairaland and its writers for allowing this article to appear.

in that case all pro western and isreal supporters are Bigger hypocrites, because you want the continuation of genocide, and you criticize Russia for doing what the US was tryin to achieve in CUBA... would you sit back and watch while your enemy slowly takes out a gun and aims it at your head point blank?... All pro russia supporters are typically against western backed governments (which includes isreal).
where is the genocide
Israel won't take palestinians land, hamas knows this but i guess the palestinians are too stupid to acknowledge.

Unlike russia that has already changed the culture in ukraine.

Maybe after the war the palestinians will understand the free world were the only true friends of palestine.

The two state solution will be achieved and Israel will guarantee the security of palestine

By "decoy with missiles", are you talking about decoy missiles or missiles that release decoy flares? They are two different things.

Decoy missiles are common and well known. Missiles that release decoy flares are not.

The video shows a Russian missiles releasing decoy flares. This capability is something that has been suspected for a while, but until the Special Military Operation started, no one has confirmed that any weapon system has it. Talking of the AIM-9 Sidewinder, it does not release decoy flares.

⚡US skips congressional review to approve sale of 155mm shells to Israel, again.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has approved the sale to Israel of 155mm artillery shells and related equipment without congressional review.

Blinken determined that an emergency exists that requires the immediate sale to Israel, thereby waiving congressional review requirements, according to the Pentagon.

Israel has requested that fuzes, primers and charges be included in a previous request for 155mm shells. The estimated total value of the sale is $147.5 million.

This is the second time this month the Biden administration has skipped congressional review of a weapons sale to Israel. On Dec. 9, the administration used the emergency authority to allow the sale of about 14,000 tank shells to Israel.

Here are the facts.

1. Ukraine received $233 billion in aid in 18 months. Its pre war nominal GDP was around $200 billion. Realistically subsidies amount to 75-100% of GDP. Essentially Ukraine is on life support, but Russian GDP is back to pre-war levels and has adjusted to sanctions. This is why continued western support is so critical, because without fiscal and military inflows, collapse would be inevitable.

2. ⁠Russian population is not 3x bigger, it is probably closer to 4-4.5 at this point. If you take Russian population of 146 million (w/ Crimea) and add another 4-6 million from occupied territories, plus Ukrainian refugees. We are probably looking at ~152 million. Ukraine, by most optimistic estimates, given the refugee flow and loss of territories is ~35 million.

War of attrition is not in the interests of Ukraine because all factors needed are limited, manpower is in short supply, equipment deliveries are conditional, so is fiscal support and you need all three to keep going. Russia on the other hand is relatively self-sufficient.

There is also the fact that Russia is capable of attracting immigrants from Central Asia to work in the country, while Ukraine is not in any position to attract any one to work there. Russia may not be as desirable as it once was for these immigrants, but there is still plenty of work available for them in Russia.

Whatever the case and I might be wrong with the example of Sidewinder. But the use of flare, chaffs and RF system is nothing new in missiles tech. But anyways..

German Gen. Christian Freuding, Germany's most senior military official coordinating the aid to Ukraine, says Russia has done better than expected and "could rebuild its military in 5-8 years."

“Russian ability to resist was not initially seen in the way we assess it today. Nor did we see that they would achieve what we are now clearly observing. Despite the brutal sanctions regime, they are strengthening and expanding their military capabilities, their industrial complex, increasing their production capacities.


Whether it is North Korea, China, or even countries from the global South. Even if these states only provide refrigerator lighting, this can later be used for military purposes.”

Freuding pointed out that UAVs were an important lesson learned by Germany from the war in Ukraine:

"We have now set up an UAV task force so that we can quickly introduce different types of drones and drone defense systems to the troops and start training and trials. This will not only apply to mechanized army units. The use and defense against drones will become a task for everyone in the armed forces."

It is something NEW. Hard to admit i know.

All the top US military blogs, experts and major news outlets were wowed yesterday. Saying they've never seen or heard something like that is in existence before.

You Western supporters find it hard to admit that Russia has the most sophisticated and superior military technology in the world.

Well the more you keep doubting Russia, the more they keep surprising you.

⚡Moldova presented statistics according to which every fifth schoolchild chose Russian as the language of instruction.

The National Bureau of Statistics said that 19.1 percent of the country's schoolchildren study in Russian, while 80.8 percent study in Romanian, which replaced Moldovan.

In Chisinau, the number of Russian-speaking school children reaches 21.8%, and in Gagauzia - 92.3%. At the same time, in the capital almost half of the population speaks Russian, and in general about 80% of the Moldovan population understands and uses Russian speech.

The Office does not have statistics for Transnistria, where Russian is an official language on a par with Moldovan and Ukrainian. However, in the overwhelming majority of school institutions in Transnistria education is conducted in Russian. Moreover, about 200 thousand local residents have Russian citizenship.
