Too bad Russia isn't any closer to Odessa soon. It would be lovely to see

⚡Biden will announce today that he ordered the U.S. military to conduct an "emergency mission" to open up a maritime route for humanitarian assistance to Gaza.

U.S. military will construct a port on Gaza’s Mediterranean coast to receive humanitarian assistance by sea.

Aid will arrive at the temporary port via Greek Administration of Southern Cyprus.
Where are the fanboys to come and clap for their masters, the protector of the world.
This news remind me of the movie Black November when Ebiere talks about how "they make us hungry and then feed us".

Veto against all UN resolutions to stop the genocide ✓

Donate thousands of weapons to Palestinian babies ✓

Support all war crimes again Palestinians ✓

Go after any nation who criticizes Israel's genocide of Palestinians ✓

Defend genocide at the ICJ, then threaten the ICJ to not order Israel's withdrawal ✓


But yeah cool, the US will open a maritime route for humanitarian assistance to Gazans grin cool cool

All actions that ensure the survival of Palestinians are welcome, even if from an enemy state. Hopefully, it won't be an ambush like the last humanitarian assistance that was a trap for Palestinians to get sprayed with machine guns.

🇸🇾⚔🏴‍☠ Syrian Ministry of Defense: At approximately 21:35 pm today, the Israeli enemy launched an air aggression from the direction of the occupied Syrian Golan, targeting a number of points in the Damascus countryside. Our air defense forces responded to the aggression’s missiles and shot down most of them, and the losses were limited to material losses.

@stayfreeworld
Syria just claimed to have an air defense force which shot down missiles above the country.

What do you mean retaliate?

Aren't they the first to order an airstrike on the Houthis? The houthis were only blocking Israeli ships from passing before the UK decided to flex its muscles on what did not concern them. Now they have been proven to be a paper tiger hiding behind the USA.

The translation is of poor quality, actually macron makes it clear that NATO already has troops in Ukraine, but that they deny it officially. The troops are there fighting on the ground unofficially. Without the countries taking responsibility of sending troops.
Macron is trying to cover his ass because a lot of his unofficial troops have been killed in Ukraine. He will have to account for them at some point.
I don't believe he has to account for anything. It is common knowledge that NATO troops are on ground in Ukraine. Those who agreed to go must surely have some plausible deniability clause in their contract. Also, many of the French guys in Ukraine are members of the French Foreign Legion, so are easily deniable as they cannot be classified as regular troops.

Also, if you remember, in January, Russia claimed to have killed 60 French soldiers in a strike on Kharkiv. France came out to say it was Russian disinformation and that France has no soldiers in Ukraine. Russia released some names, only for France to double-down and say the guys were not French soldiers but people with French nationality serving in the Ukrainian military, and that Russia only got the names through a leak.

I have never seen an army advertising a counteroffensive like I have seen with the Western-controlled Ukrainian army. Trying to win on social media when Ukrainian men and boys are dying on the battlefield.

⚡Russia’s spy boss on Tuesday said a pilot who defected to Ukraine with a military helicopter and then reportedly shot dead in Spain was a “moral corpse”.

Maxim Kuzminov flew his Mi-8 helicopter into Ukraine in August in a brazen operation, saying he opposed Russia’s military offensive.

Reports in Spanish media said Kuzminov was found shot dead in the southern town of Villajoyosa last week, where he had moved after receiving Ukrainian citizenship for switching sides.

A spokesperson for Ukraine’s main intelligence directorate later confirmed that Kuzminov had died without providing further details, Ukrainian media reported.

“This traitor and criminal became a moral corpse at the very moment when he planned his dirty and terrible crime,” Russian state news agencies quoted Sergei Naryshkin, the head of Russia’s SVR foreign intelligence service, as saying Tuesday.
All the Western Media are so biased that it's so glaring even to neutrals. They are making it sound like the traitor defected for moral reasons.

The so-called pilot was a traitor who betrayed Russia in exchange for 500,000 euros and not because he opposed the SMO.

His family were moved out of Russia earlier and he directly caused the death of two Russian servicemen. He also gave Ukraine military parts he was transporting all in exchange for 500,000€.

I personally don't have a problem with people ruling forever. As long as it's not a despot. Let everybody do whatever works best for them. Don't impose your beliefs and strategies on others.

Before the British came, the Alaafin was a supreme ruler in Yorubaland, same for the Benin Kingdom and others. The house of Saud has been ruling Saudi since inception, transforming it from a wasteland to what it is now. Lee Kuan Yew was Prime Minister of Singapore for 31 years. Singapore was expelled from Malaysia, look at the economic powerhouse it has become. Look at China today. 49.8% of the Chinese population lived below the poverty line in 2000. As at 2021 it was reduced to just 0.6%.

We claim to be practicing Democracy in Nigeria but the country gets worse and worse every day. Every 4 to 8 years, we get people and their caucus who seek to eat their share of the cake before they are kicked out in the next 4-8 years. During Jonathan, we had Dasukigate, during Buhari, we had Umar Farouq. Just today, EFCC is reported to be investigating someone for a whooping $6BN stolen funds.

Thank God someone is earning in USD, so a bit protected from inflation. In the past 30 days, I have exchanged USD five times. Rate was 1187 by 29th December and I exchanged again yesterday for 1400 per USD. Today, it's 1440.
I can't believe that at this time last year, I exchanged at 744

I won't mind a Putin or Xi Jinping ruling for 30 years if they can improve the country. The poverty rate in Democracy-practising Nigeria is alarming.
20 days later, dollar is over 1600. Electricity is non-existent. Almost everyone in my estate now run their generator for long hours that my eardrum is almost damaged. Inflation is high and insecurity is on the rise. I don't even login to my social media again cos the economy has turned almost everyone in my DM into Almajiri. The "Democrat" in Aso rock is quiet.

Baby Hind was traveling with her family when they were attacked by Israeli tanks. The little girl survived while her relatives were killed, and managed to stay on a phone call that led the PCRS to send an ambulance to save her. The occupation army killed the little girl and the ambulance crew when they tried to save her.

All of you that support child killers, especially the idiot who called babies terrorists, may you all die a horrible death.

⚡Ukrainian soldiers really don’t like new Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Syrskyi and call him a "butcher", WaPo reports.

“100 percent of ordinary soldiers don’t respect him because they think he doesn’t count soldiers’ lives,” a source said.
Word on the street is that he is an obedient commander. He was in charge of Bakhmut and kept following orders from you-know-who and Zelenskyy to pour soldiers into the Bakhmut meat-grinder to make it a media spectacle that it became. You know as a symbol of Ukraine never surrendering and fighting to the end.

But he is good. He led the defense of Kiev and the successive Kharkov counteroffensive. Funny enough, the man is an ethnic Russian with no prior connection to Ukraine other than being stationed there when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. His parents and siblings have been found to still live in Russia.

Like for many people in Ukraine, it's funny how being Ukrainian or Russian is just down to a personal decision. Too bad how they used the 2014 Euromaiden coup to turn regular Ukrainians against their elder siblings.

🚨🇯🇴 BREAKING: Jordanian F-16s participated in the bombing of targets in Iraq and Syria.

This occurred despite the fact that the U.S. service members killed last week were located in Syria, not Jordan — according to the Kingdom of Jordan.
Syria and Iraq have no sovereignty again in my eyes. All countries both allies and enemies seem to have active presence in both countries. Missiles, drones and aircrafts seem to enter their territories at will without repercussions. Instead of striking their respective countries, warring countries seem to use them (especially Syria) as a battlefield to settle scores.

He also said that the CIA has a lot of the western MSM outlets key decision makers on their payroll, by using shadow third-party organizations and corporations to sponsor those news outlets to achieve their aim .

Even Vladimir Putin was forced to admit sometime ago that the west and it's secret service knows how to "work" when it comes to controlling the narrative and public perception of key events.
You can give them that credit. They know how to select people, train them, put them in powerful and sensitive positions, and have them influence their policies.

The current defense minister of Ukraine is a FLEX alumni. The FLEX program is an exchange year for high-school students from the former Eastern Bloc and Central Europe to spend a year in the USA with a host family while studying. It provides an opportunity to select the "useful ones".

Russia used to be among too and they hated it. They couldn't stop the program to prevent an uproar. But they were presented with an opportunity to end it in 2014. A Russian high school student was chosen to stay with TWO Alphabet MEN. When the program finished, they offered to get him into Havard, got him alphabet lawyers, and influenced the boy to apply for asylum as a newly inducted "alphabetee". Russia subsequently ended the program.

Another notable alumni is Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya. It might not ring a bell but she is a "Belarusian Guaido" recognized by Lithuania as the president of Belarus. She spearheaded the 2020 coup in Belarus.

There are so many of these notable alumni in Ukraine

3. You said (I corrected your script a little bit) "the house of Saud has been ruling the Arabian peninsula since inception", could you be precise as to give dates and tell us what you mean by "inception" ?
That some kingdoms have had supreme rulers. The Alaafin was a supreme ruler in his kingdom. The Oba of Benin was supreme in his own kingdom. Same for many other kingdoms.

In 1932, two kingdoms were unified as the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Hence 1932 was its inception. They've had maybe 6-7 Kings since then, who have all being from the house of Saud.
