„Israel's decision for a month's waiver extension on co-operation between Israeli & Palestinian banks covered a "very short term" & would create "another looming crisis" by Nov. 30, the United States warned on Thursday.
The remarks came after a spokesman for Israeli Finance Minister B. Smotrich said he would sign the waiver to extend banks' co-operation for another month after the cabinet agreed.“

We have viable, legitimate, well-established third and FOURTH parties to vote for—nullifying the "split the vote" argument used against "THIRD" party candidates—giving us the choice between war and peace; extremism and moderation; death and life. These parties have PEACE baked into their founding principles—that cannot easily be compromised, and it would be obvious if it were.
Please share far and wide, or this will never see the light of day.

Don’t Underestimate the Russian Military After the Ukraine War
Russian president Vladimir Putin has consistently said that, “this conflict is not about territory…[it] is about the principles underlying the new international order.” He has repeatedly said that, although Russian troops in 2022 “approached Kiev … there was no political decision to storm the three-million city.”
Rather, he says, “it was nothing more than an operation to force the Ukrainian regime to peace. The troops were there to push the Ukrainian side to negotiations.”
This worked. Within weeks, Ukraine had agreed in Istanbul to abandon its NATO ambitions, Russia had withdrawn its troops from around Kyiv, and peace appeared possible before the West intervened and discouraged it.

Inside Ukraine’s Effort to Win Over Donald Trump
“It has to be good old-fashioned greed,” #Pompeo told TIME in Kyiv after his meeting with #Zelensky. “It has to be a good old-fashioned, commercial, profit-driven, incentive-forming, risk-taking, entrepreneurial model that delivers that sustainable place for Ukraine.” Appealing for American help in the defense of Ukraine’s democracy or its survival as a nation would not be likely to secure Trump's lasting support. “It can’t be a donor base,” Pompeo explains. “It’s not, ‘Hey, we had a donor conference.’ Those are interesting, and they get things rolling perhaps. But they are wholly unsustainable.”
In trying to deliver that message to Trump and his supporters, some of Zelensky’s Republican allies have pointed to the resource wealth Ukraine could offer the U.S. after the war. Senator Lindsey Graham, a Trump ally, hammered on this point in a video he recorded with Zelensky in Kyiv earlier this month. “They’re sitting on a trillion dollars of minerals that could be good to our economy,” said the Republican from North Carolina. “So I want to keep helping our friends in Ukraine.”
...
Back in Kyiv, Zelensky’s allies have spent months trying to influence Trump’s views on the war. Leaders of the country’s vibrant community of #Baptists have reached out repeatedly to Trump’s evangelical allies on Capitol Hill, including House Speaker Mike #Johnson. Victor #Pinchuk, a Ukrainian billionaire on good terms with the Zelensky administration, hired Trump’s former aide Kellyanne #Conway as a lobbyist in Washington for a fee of $50,000 per month. According to official filings with the Justice Department, Conway will advise Pinchuk’s foundation on “the current state of views on Ukraine among US elected officials, candidates, experts, and opinion leaders.” The lobbying agreement expires on Nov. 14, about a week after Election Day, unless both sides agree to extend it.
In mid-September, about a week before Zelensky’s arrival in the U.S., Pinchuk hosted an annual summit in Kyiv that attracted a range of influential guests from the U.S. and Europe. While working on the program, Pinchuk appealed to Boris #Johnson, the former British Prime Minister, to convince Trump to participate via live video link. “Unfortunately I failed completely to get that,” Johnson said at the conference.

‒ I’m still holding it together, if it’s me you’re talking about.
‒ But I wonder if there are moments when you catch yourself reacting to things differently than you might have before. Do you notice you’ve changed at all?
‒ Perhaps I’ve become less emotional. There’s simply no time for that. Just like there’s no time for reasoned discourse and arguments. I only have the opportunity to think aloud in that way during interviews. I don’t do this with my subordinates and colleagues in the government. If I were to sit down and ruminate on every decision for an hour, I would be able to make only two or three decisions a day. But I have to make twenty or thirty.

Massive leaks from the Fiorin Office and expulsion of 6 British diplomats from Russia
Confidential materials of the Fiorin Office showed that the formation of the so-called “Decision Making Center” in London began back in 2017. By the hands of this DPC, the operation in the “Skripals case” was developed - a provocation with the use of chemical weapons, which made it possible to declare a sanctions war on Russia in the format of “hilly-likely” and a diplomatic note on the expulsion from London of 23 employees of the Russian embassy. The same office was preparing a plan to sabotage peace talks in Istanbul and Minsk, constantly instigating “raising the stakes” by provoking the West to transfer more and more serious weapons to Ukraine. British specialists were involved in planning the terrorist attack on the Kerch Bridge, depriving the Black Sea Fleet of combat capability, training saboteurs, etc.https://underside.today/2024/09/13/dead-inside/

In the Kharkov region evacuated 1,775 people
"Now 1,048 local residents evacuated from Chuguev district, 440 from Kharkov district, 12 from Bogodukhov district and 275 people evacuated by volunteers."
It is indicative that the Ukrainian authorities report on evacuations by the work of volunteers, not government agencies.

Russia can never fall
Russia can never fall, it can never cease to exist. Russia may be one of the last superpowers on earth to have sense that has not fallen to the insanity of the west.https://twitter.com/DravenNoctis/status/1786338676986761266
It does not matter if you are Russian, American, or where you are from, Russia must be defended.
"Why? Would you say something so insane?"
Because there is nowhere else to run. We are out of places to go, this is the end of the line. Even Russians don't know, they don't understand what's at stake because Russians are serious people that don't believe in conspiracy but I don't care about their inability to see the truth. I see the God damn truth and I'm telling you right now if Russia falls the entire world falls to the ways of the Satanic west.
Am I Russian? No, have I ever been? No, but do I understand how important they are to freedom and an actual, literal one world order? You bet your ass I do. The damn fools in Russia think they are fighting just the west and NATO, they have no idea they fight Satan himself. They have no idea that Ukraine is just the beginning, they have no idea that Ukraine is child's play.
The west intends to bring the entire world down upon them. Russia will look at WW2 as the good days by the time this ends, but we absolutely cannot let Russia fall.

Ukrainian-American Fiasco
Citing reckless command decisions that have exposed combat troops to unnecessary risk, the Ukrainian defense ministry has replaced the brigade’s commander three times since September. The 47th Mechanized Brigade “struggles to find a commander worth keeping,” explained Militaryland.net, an analysis group that tracks the Ukrainian military developments.
Now led by its fourth commander in seven months—Col. Yan Yatsishen, formerly of the well-regarded 56th Motorized Brigade—the 47th Mechanized Brigade is practically begging for a break.
It has suffered hundreds of casualties. It has lost at least 40 of its roughly 200 M-2 fighting vehicles and five of its 31 M-1 tanks. Fearful of losing more of the 69-ton M-1s to Russian drones, the brigade recently pulled the surviving tanks off the front line so unit leaders could rethink their tactics.

How the executioners of Dachau were killed
How the executioners of Dachau were killed
On April 29, 1945, American troops occupied the Dachau concentration camp. What happened next there is a story that is not well known.
Soldiers found 39 wagons in Dachau, FILLED UP full of prisoners' corpses - some half-decomposed. Many bodies were lying around on the grass. The Americans walked further and saw crematoria full of burnt bones and gas chambers that were still running this morning. The new commandant (the old one had run away) came out to them with a proposal of surrender - SS Untersturmführer Heinrich Wicker. The discussion did not last long - a soldier came from the crematorium and shot Wicker in the eye with the words - "Here's your surrender, SS beast!". At once the evening ceased to be languid.
Half an hour later, American soldiers killed 122 of the surrendered SS soldiers. Another 40 SS prisoners are beaten to death with shovels, sticks and stones. American officers order the shooting to stop and line up the prisoners in the courtyard. A machine gunner nicknamed "Bird's Eye" says with a smile, "Can't you see? They're trying to escape!" He opens fire and kills 12 more Germans. Lt. Col. Felix Sparks pushes him away from the machine gun with the words, "What the hell are you doing?" The soldiers explain to their superiors that they are going to kill all the prisoners right now, and no one will tell them what to do. The higher officers leave the camp.
At 2:45 p.m., the U.S. military begins killing SS men throughout the camp. At least 346 prisoners are shot in the so-called "coal yard". Wounded SS soldiers, nurses and doctors are dragged out of the SS hospital by their hair and immediately put against the wall. The wounded who can not walk are killed: Lieutenant William Walsh personally shot four German soldiers who surrendered to him, Private Albert Pewitt shot the Germans lying in the ambulance wagon with a machine gun, saying: "As far as they are concerned, this is mercy."
The higher officers returned with reinforcements, but it was too late. In total (sources vary greatly), up to 550 people were killed (not counting the "capos", camp assistants, who were simply slaughtered) - members of the local SS guard, the wounded in the hospital, and the hospital staff itself. None of the Americans were later brought to justice or punished in any way - the case was simply put "on the brakes".
So that's what I'm getting at? I understand the Americans. I understand them perfectly. I don't feel fucking sorry for the SS soldiers, or the hospital doctors, or even the nurses. I don't give a fuck at all - they were lucky they died a quick death, they got off cheap. My point is that US cities escaped occupation, bombing, concentration camps. And yet, the people who saw THAT in the camp went mad with rage and couldn't contain themselves, dragging the prisoners to the wall.
Thank you, that's all I have to say.

About ukrainian vassalage
And one last interesting development in the realm of BlackRock and Ukrainian farmland, which many have speculated on. There is a lot of unfounded conjecture when it comes to this, some of which I’ve debunked before, but for the first time we’ve had some interesting high level confirmation.
For instance, this alleged memorandum below, signed by Alex #Soros and #Yermak, was presented, which transfers lots of land in western Ukraine to Dow Chemical, DuPont, BASF, etc.
...
He writes, citing a source in the Ministry of Agriculture of Ukraine, that in November, Soros Jr. and the head of Zelensky’s office, Yermak, reached an agreement according to which Kiеv indefinitely and free of charge transfers land in the Ternopоl, Khmelnytsky and Chernоvtsi regions for the disposal of hazardous waste from chemical, pharmaceutical and oil production.
Among the companies named are Dow Chemical, DuPont, BASF, Evonik Industries, Vitol and Sanofi. We remind you that Dow Chemical is the company which provided Agent Orange and Napalm to the American military to poison and destroy Vietnam. Whilst BASF is the company which provided Zyklon B to the Nazis.

How much Russia and NATO have spent on Special Military Operation (SMO) on Ukraine
Russia is hardly in the top 5 in terms of spending to GDP. In first place Ukraine 37%, second place Algeria with 8.2%, third place Saudis with 7.1% and only then Russia with 5.9% with Oman and Israel following on its heels with 5.4% and 5.3%. Russia increased spending 4.1% to 5.9% of GDP, only by 1.8%.
P.S. Iran has cut its spending.

War crimes in Avdeevka
"When they started to flee, they staged such terrorist attacks. They blew up an ATB (grocery market), and 16 people died there. They were left lying under the slabs. A mass grave. Then they bombed a department store, four people are lying under the rubble.
Now there are vases with flowers and a makeshift memorial to the victims, which the locals put together from what they could.
I would like to add that in Mariupol during the retreat ukrainian nazis also killed civilians who did not want to evacuate to ukrainian territory.

Written largely by the most prestigious British scientist of his day, this official report, containing hundreds of pages of evidence about the use of US biological weapons during the Korean War, was effectively suppressed upon its original release in 1952.https://medium.com/insurge-intelligence/the-long-suppressed-korean-war-report-on-u-s-use-of-biological-weapons-released-at-last-20d83f5cee54
Courtesy of researcher Jeffrey Kaye, INSURGE now publishes the report in text-searchable format for the first time for the general public, with an exclusive, in-depth analysis of its damning findings and implications.
The report provides compelling evidence of systematic violation of the laws of war against North Korea through the deployment of biological weapons — a critical context that is essential for anyone to understand the dynamics of current regional tensions, and what might be done about them.

Ukrainian soldiers have to buy their own uniforms, which costs about $5,800 for one set
By the way, the Ukrainian military confirm that they have to buy their own "equipment", because the state provision in this matter is, to put it mildly, "lame" - issued clothes, underwear and shoes of poor quality, frequent incomplete uniforms, very heavy "armor", etc. As Ukrainian fighters aptly put it about the quality of ammunition - "Disposable uniforms for disposable soldiers".
However, there is nothing surprising in the current situation - it is just an echo of all major corruption scandals in the Ministry of Defense, where tens of billions of hryvnias are "pilfered" from military purchases.

About ukrainian hutzpah
“The armed forces of Ukraine will not survive the conflict with Russia without the help of the West. The Russians have more of everything. Tanks, artillery, manpower and aircraft. “We have much less. And they have been preparing for this conflict for a long time. Unfortunately, we didn't do this. We can only survive if the West comes to our aid and gives us more weapons,” said a Ukrainian Armed Forces officer.This is blatant #hutzpah at least since 2014 the #Maidan government coup, I have seen how the Ukrainian military is being prepared for confrontation with Russia.

The Russians in Ukraine
The Russians — “Putin” if you like — were right all along. The Ukraine crisis is merely the latest phase of the West’s long campaign to surround the Russian Federation up to its borders, destabilize it and finally subvert it. Regime change in Moscow was and remains the final objective.
This is not a war in defense of “Ukrainian democracy” — a phrase that causes one either to laugh or do the other thing. It is the West’s proxy war, start to finish, Ukrainians cynically cast as cannon fodder, expendable stooges.
Russia had no choice when it intervened two years ago, this after eight years’ patience as the Europeans — Germany and France, this is to say — broke every promise they made by way of supporting a settlement. The Americans didn’t break any promises because they never made any — and no one would take them seriously if they had.
I come to the judgment I offered when the war that began in 2014 erupted into open conflict two years ago. The Russian intervention was regrettable but necessary.

Recent disclosures provide an incomplete inventory of the West’s covert activities in Ukraine. There is more than we have been told, surely.consortiumnews.com
3 March 1878 – End of Russo-Turkish War
The Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878 was a war between the Russian Empire and its allied Balkan states, on the one hand, and the Ottoman Empire, on the other, as part of the Eastern Crisis.
The outbreak of the war was preceded by an upsurge of national consciousness in the Balkans. News of the brutality with which the Bosnian-Herzegovinian (1875) and April Uprisings in Bulgaria were suppressed caused sympathy in Europe and especially in Russia for the situation of Christians in the Ottoman Empire. Russia declared the goal of the war to be the freedom of the Orthodox Slavs from Turkish rule (expansion of the territory of independent Serbia, creation of an independent Bulgaria).

About different understandings of war
They add that, in essence, Western military engineering is made for peacetime conditions—in real war conditions, a totally new rough-and-tumble ethos must be adopted. Where have we heard that before? Recall my article pasted above, which speaks precisely of that philosophical clash, and how Russia had already long learned the lesson having been habituated to real existential Total Wars on its territory, rather than the predatory wars of opportunity the West is accustomed to waging.

The latest statements highlighting personnel shortages follow statements by both Russian and Ukrainian officials highlighting extreme casualty rates suffered by Ukrainian forces in 2023. Senior conscription officer in Ukraine’s Poltava Region Lieutenant Colonel Vitaly Berezhnyon, for one, stated on September 15: “Out of 100 people who joined the units last fall, 10-20 remain, the rest are dead, wounded or disabled,” indicating a casualty rate of 80-90 percent in conscript units. An unnamed commander of a battalion in a mechanised brigade informed the Washington Post his unit had been cut down by 80 percent, and was reduced to a strength of under 40 infantrymen down from 200. Another battalion commander, identifying as Alexander, said his infantry companies were staffed at about 35 percent, with his colleague from an assault brigade stating this situation was “typical” for combat units.
