His main point is a good one: It shouldn't be the case that anyone's "bona fides" as a Conservative and/or their career prospects should be dependent on their fidelity to Zionist Nationalism. Alas, here we are. It's very sad how toeing the Zionist line has now become a definitive part of being an establishment Conservative. Thanks, IJM!
The War is the Anti-Christians vs the Christians. Putin has built 30,000 Christian Churches in Russia. Opening 3 per day, even as the war rages. The Anti-Christians hate Russia.
Unfortunately this just shows again the Kremlins do nothing approach, where is it diplomacy its education program cultural outreach, the same thing is happening with Azerbaijan. The Azeri Mafia was allowed to establish in Russia and someone is benefiting in the Kremlin but obviously a problem has arisen in this relationship hence raid in Yekaterinburg, why was the head of the Mafia family released with no charges but dramatically hunted down for allegedly only questioning.
If a country is run by oligarchs and criminal enterprises then this is the result a very sad state of affairs which obviously will only get worse as the not a war takes its toll on Russia prior to a new front opening elsewhere.
All this whilst the altmedia tells you for two years Ukraine's army is collapsing, they still have 600k troops at least and putting up stiff opposition.
Where is the battle damage assessment for the latest huuuuge strike on targets in Ukraine plus the last two years of strikes. No one knowns what damage is inflicted, why are the trains still running and the bridges over the Dneiper still carrying war materiel to the front, because the Kremlin does not want to win this war by military means but wants a negotiated settlement and not seem to capitulate by it people in the process.
Yes, things are getting worse faster. That is yet another indication of the desperation being felt by the GAE/WEF. They need a major war as soon as feasible. You cannot stem this tide of momentum with words or pleas for diplomacy. Only tangible action can have an impact. Iran is regrouping and being resupplied by China and Russia. Ditto for Israel via the US. Neither Israel nor the US can risk another direct attack on Iran, so a false flag operation is the most probable next step. Perhaps an another attack on a US Navy surface vessel or a military airbase in the Middle East. If that happens, the neocons will start beating the war drums. The only way to break this dynamic is for Iran to turn off the lights in Israel and start the stampede out of the country. That's our best shot at avoiding a world war.
At least the U.N. didn't like it. But that shows you what kind of clout the U.N. has.
So now Israel (with U.S. support) controls the distribution of food, so it can make the killing of the Gazans more efficient. Shooting rather than starving them. Who'd a thunk?
Israel and the US are now in charge of aid distribution in Gaza...a horrid ruse to further advance the purposeful killing of the population. These Amercan shooters don't need the protection of berms to fire bullets into unarmed, starving, weak people!
The US continues to be complicit in Israel's attacks on Iran--what ceasefire?--and in Syria.
USrael's targets are civilians, as witnessed in the video of the intersection bombing. I gasped audibly as the cars flew up into the air.
Terrorism, it is.
Trump has blood dripping from his fingers--just as Netanyahu does.
On the eve of July 4, our 249th anniversary, it is particularly appalling and heart-wrenching to realize that our leaders (the card carrying members of the A-Z Empire) hold in contempt the “self evident” truths inscribed in our founding document, thise “inalienable rights…life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Worse, innocents are put to the sword (bullets now) and ancient Christian sanctuaries are degraded and pillaged. I remember sparklers, chicken sizzling on the grill and later on, fireworks.! What happened? When did our country put on the armour of death and destruction?
July 4 is an important marker-date for Benji Netanyahu.
On July 4, 1976, while USA was celebrating its 200th anniversary, Israelis flew to Entebbe to "release hostages." Bibi's older brother, Yonathan, was in charge of the operation but had not been present for the final briefing, broke protocol (by shooting at an airport guard), was shot in return and died of his wound.
That meant 2nd son Bibi became successor to the Netanyahu 'dynasty' -- Jacob supplants Esau (Benzion N. carried on about his grief over Yonathan's death, but there was bad blood between the two, and Yonathan did not want to be a soldier. )
~July 4, 1979, "The Yonathan Institute" named in honor of deceased hero-martyr Yonathan, held a conference in Jerusalem, "International Terrorism: Challenge and Response." Topics were the Muslim-Arab threat; Iran threat; nuclear threat. Speakers included Shimon Peres and Menachem Begin, both terrorists and the latter responsible for creating Israel's nuclear weapons facility at Dimona.
Benjamin Netanyahu will visit USA around the July 4, 2025 holiday, most likely to demand that Trump provide more weapons to destroy Iran.
How about if Trump just gives him a gold watch and congratulates him on early retirement from 50 years of terror-mongering?
ML, I think the boiling frog analogy applies. When you let a little evil in a lot follows... when good men do nothing, etc. It is to the point now, though, that anyone with a heart and with a conscience cannot but recoil with horror at the actions our tax dollars are supporting.
RFK, Jr. said on Tucker that Trump is a truly empathetic guy, once you get to know him. I have a one-word reply: Gaza. If he knows what is going on and continues to support it he is a monster and a psychopath. If he doesn't know, it is his responsibility to find out, as POTUS. I have a hard time believing he doesn't know.
Putin knows what game Trump is playing with Ukraine. Good! Putin knows what is going on in the Middle East. Good! Putin knows what is going on in Armenia. Good! I (and the world, largely) am depending on his knowledge, intelligence, wisdom, and diplomatic skills to keep us all from WWIII.
Putin also knows what is going on in DC and how the rest of the population in the U.S. (to the extent that it is paying attention) does not support what the U.S. government is doing overseas. Initially, I misread point #17 as:
"What we are seeing now is not just a political dispute. It’s a war for America’s soul. And every American — whether inside or outside of DC — must understand exactly what is at stake." I did not / do not intend to be Americentric. The Armenian people are every bit as important as the U.S. people and have all the same rights. May God bless and protect them and us from our own rulers.

I've only read a few sentences of the article I'm posting, but think it might be of interest to you and your readers.

I feel pretty confident that Trump and the US have the weapons for Ukraine, especially right now
All reports I read are they are already in Poland - waiting
and US could give the go ahead at a moment notice
additionally eg: Israel does not use Patriot System any longer
I opine [ and have previously ] Trump is trying to trade Ukraine for Israel -
We end Ukraine - You end Iran
I get the feeling that the last people in the world anyone would trust are the Israelis
and a close second Trump and the US
Difficult to have negotiations were you know the other side is constantly lieing
and has no intention whatsoever to abide by any agreement anyway
. History has proven Israel has absolutely no none zero intent to honor any agreement
nor does the US - an negotiated settlement with the US over Ukraine is effectively worthless.
. Russia China Iran will continue to play this ' by the book ' The UN book
Unfortunately for all of us - The US threw that book out years ago -

This is good, too:

But it made me wonder why the GHF replaced the UN in the first place. Here is the explanation (as offered by the Israelis):

I am recoiling,
Yes, that really is the horror.
