"Top Ukrainian military officials claim that Elon Musk prevented a nuclear disaster at the Kursk nuclear power plant by disabling Internet access for Ukrainian forces.
Ukrainians are blaming Elon Musk for their setback in the Kursk region."
"_Top Ukrainian military officials- claim that Elon Musk prevented a nuclear disaster at the Kursk nuclear power plant by disabling Internet access for _Ukrainian forces_."
Don't "_Top Ukrainian military officials_" direct the actions of "_Ukrainian forces_."???
Telegram's Pavel Durov was arrested after hackers released tens of thousands of sensitive documents and emails from Israeli institutions, including Israel's Justice Ministry, military and defence contractors, hospitals and government ministries & more.
The scale of the breach has completely overwhelmed Israel's cybersecurity infrastructure, and while they're desperately attempting to mitigate the damage through legal measures & negotiations with Google, Amazon and Meta, Telegram's Pavel Durov refuses to censor this information. Shortly after, he is arrested over "misuse of the platform".
I recall reading about clandestine printing presses hidden in basements on the other side of the iron curtain during the Cold War. The one story involved a man smuggling the press into his country a piece at a time and setting it up in a makeshift room underground. He was an elevator repairman by day, and so had an excuse for his ink stained fingers (dirty hands). Outlawing the dissemination of information. An attempt by the tyrants to control the mind. A futile exercise in the end, but in the mean time causes a great deal of pain and trouble.
I do recall the story of a clandestinely-ordained Slovak (Hungarian?) Catholic priest who generated dozens of samizdat works while holding down his day job as an elevator repairman. I would say that, with such an oddly-specific job, it would have to be the same guy, but, then again, having lived (and mostly resorted to the stairs) in late- and post-Communist buildings in the region, that was definitely a high-demand job.
“France is deeply committed to freedom of expression and communication, to innovation, and to the spirit of entrepreneurship. It will remain so.” - thus spoke Macron. Oh vraiment? Is that why when a start-up here grows to 50 employees or more it relocates to the US? Taxes! And let me count the number of Jobs, Gates, Bezos, and Musks of French origin!
I listened to some of the interview with Ilan Pappe. I liked that he traced the origins of Zionist ideology to Protestantism--Evangelical Christianity is the term he used. It reminded me of David Goldman's idea that Protestantism is a "Judaizing heresy".
The earlier MiH was devoted, to a significant degree, to exploring the effects of the lack of a coherent theory of revelation, or a misguided one. Catholics, too, have been greatly affected by this lack, although not to the same degree as those who regard revelation as a literal communication or a coded message.
And did you notice that he compared the Zionist justification for settling Palestine to the American Pioneers justification for settling the West? Manifest Destiny 2.0.
Very well reasoned, well stated, and heartfelt endorsement. She will be a great campaigner for President Trump. I know some people have had doubts about her but I am more impressed by her every time I see her. Thanks for the link.
I wonder how long before Christianity becomes toxic ideology. The West doesn’t seem to mind banning traditional Russian Orthodoxy in Ukraine nor the toxic Latin mass.
Address this, without flinching or making excuses:
Romans 13:1 vulgate
According to the Vulgate translation, Romans 13:1 reads:
"Omnis anima potestatibus sublimioribus subdita sit: non est enim potestas nisi a Deo: quae autem sunt, a Deo ordinatae sunt."
Translated to English, this means:
“Let every soul be subject to higher powers: for there is no power but from God; and those that are, are ordained by God.”
This verse emphasizes the importance of submitting to governing authorities, as they are instituted by God Himself.
Romans 13:1
New King James Version
"Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God."
I think you’re right. Earlier this year (around Pascha) a Jewish man in full IDF regalia sat in our liturgy then parading about the halls with one of the most sardonic grins I can remember. What was his purpose, I have no idea, but for some it was unsettling and for others they embraced the notion he might be seeking “The Way” something about his uniform suggested something different to me.
Ah yes, the old canard about Naziism being an “extreme right wing” ideology! Guess it also proves that just because you’re a judge doesn’t mean you’re intelligent or insightful.
In Gary Allen's 1972 book, "None Dare Call It Conspiracy", there is a diagram that shows two views of the political spectrum. One view is conventional, the other is the accurate view.
Both communism and fascism are dictatorial, and so are on the far left.
Good article that includes information from a good book~scroll down to view the diagram:
There is apparently a difference between assault and battery: if speech can be classed as assault, censorship can be classed as battery - no?
And this apparent concern for human trafficking, child porn etc might be more sincere were high-profile people like Jimmy Savile, Epstein, etc etc not allowed free rein FOR YEARS.

Apparently hackers were able to obtain classified information from Israel. Gigabytes of data making it the most severe in history. The hackers are sharing this information on Telegram. Pavel Durov, CEO of Telegram, has refused Israel’s request of censoring this information and handing over information of the users who have shared it.
The mainstream fake news media is not reporting this angle. After learning this it is making sense. Especially since Russia is also getting involved."
As someone who has never used Telegram I was confused by all the stories citing its encrypted messaging feature. If Telegram communications were truly end-to-end encrypted, neither Durov nor anyone else would be able to access their content and therefore could not be prosecuted for not censoring information or for not monitoring it.
This essay cleared this up for me (and might for others):

Does this phrase make *any* sense?
How?
"_Top Ukrainian military officials- claim that Elon Musk prevented a nuclear disaster at the Kursk nuclear power plant by disabling Internet access for _Ukrainian forces_."
Don't "_Top Ukrainian military officials_" direct the actions of "_Ukrainian forces_."???
Why didn't THEY "prevent nuclear disaster"??
More f*ckery.

Interesting.
FWIW, I believe Solzhenitsyn's writings were first distributed in the Soviet Union by clandestine presses.

One could argue that Christianity has already been forced into the closet.
Want to know how to get it out of the closet?
