a yuckrainian drone too many?....

There is a lot of opinions about “Russia invading Poland with drones”…

Some commentators are suggesting that the Russians are "invading Poland with drones" deliberately so to distract the NATO forces from what is happening at the “front” (where there are "no NATO troops"), while forcing the military in NATO territories to scramble… Trump has called it a “mistake” as if the event was accidentally done by the RUSSIANS… while he hopes the conflict will stop soon under his command... Fat luck....

From a Russian perspective, there is nothing to gain for Russia having its drones cross the Polish border. All this does is bring brickbats from most decent people around the world onto Russia…

So, who benefits? The Nazi government in Kiev is the main immediate beneficiary…. We know… False flag? 90 per cent...

dirty works — ye olde divide and conquer.....

Washington has dismantled its decades-long strategy of balancing competing regional powers in West Asia, opting instead to destabilize the region through its full-spectrum military, diplomatic, and intelligence backing of the Israeli occupation state. 

Where the post-9/11 years were defined by US-led regime change and nation-building, today's strategy is defined by state-breaking and governance erosion.

This transformation is most clearly reflected in Israel’s new audacity. Biden administration official Amos Hochstein declared Tel Aviv to be “the absolute, overwhelming, dominant military hegemon of the Middle East.” In the past few days alone, Israel has bombed Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and for the first time, the US-aligned Qatar.

of democracy....

 

OUR DEMOCRACIES rely on voters. Voters have to make choices as to who or what ideas are going to represent these choices. Choices are made on various influences:

— what’s best for me?

— what’s best for the “community”

— I trust an ideology

— Party politics

— PROPAGANDA

 

PROPAGANDA is a funny beast as it can be the truth being spruiked or lies being promoted as truth.

 

How do we find out we are not lied to?

Being an old dog — a political cartoonist since 1951 — Gus hopes that he gets it right at most times. Experience tells you that roses have thorns and cupboards may have skeletons in them…

Nature can tell us a lot about deception and traps or webs of deceit, in order to assure survival of a species — or the extend of territory. 

 

coal, climate and china in the coral sea....

Countries of the South Pacific have good reason to encourage China and other countries to assist them with infrastructure. And there is nothing that Australia should, or could, do about it.

But climate change is far more important

Climate change, not China, is the real threat in the South Pacific

 

a soft, caring grandpa, friend of the establishment.....

Within minutes of MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk being assassinated at an event in Utah on Wednesday, authorities had arrested at least one suspect – a Boomer – before releasing him and confirming that the perp remains at large. One can hardly call that profiling surprising these days.

when the US president sets the standards.....

President Donald Trump has vowed to pursue not only the assassin of conservative activist Charlie Kirk but also those he accused of funding and fueling “radical left” political violence across the United States.

In a video statement posted Wednesday night on Truth Social, Trump described Kirk, 31, as a “patriot”and a “martyr for truth and freedom,”praising him for inspiring young Americans through debates on college campuses nationwide.

“Charlie was the best of America, and the monster who attacked him was attacking our whole country,” Trump said. “An assassin tried to silence him with a bullet, but he failed, because together we will ensure that his voice, his message, and his legacy will live on for countless generations to come.”

biblical recycling...

The little dog was not fussed

His master was mad but nonplussed

Screaming obscenities at the crossing crowd

Smoking a butt in a vanishing white puff

While pushing a pram of recycled stuff

Making a trotting mutt so most proud

The master was saving the whole planet 

On such important business taking a bet

For the mad ruler of the universe in Tel-Aviv

Was killing an inferior race he led us to believe

Starving kids

Bombing mothers

Shooting fathers 

Murdering brothers

Assassinating others

Bulldozing for quids

Only a mad cat would befriend such a crappy rat

With a circumcised dick and a little round hat

Such humans hope god Yahweh will love them

More than most chosen as they create mayhem 

On their ruthless way to dying Jerusalem. Amen

 

panic that modi went overboard in tianjin....

 

India found itself in an uncomfortable situation like a cat on a hot roof at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation event in Tianjin, China, with Western media hyping up its unlikely role in a troika with Russia and China to chariot the world order toward a brave new era of multipolarity. 

 

India disavows ‘Tianjin spirit’, turns to EU

BY M.K. Bhadrakumar

 

The plain truth is, the real obsession of the Western media was to vilify the U.S. President Donald Trump for having “lost” India by caricaturing a three-way Moscow-Delhi-Beijing partnership as an attempt to conspire against the United States. 

hypocrisy, submission and independence, war and peace all rolled into one spew....

Half-truths and hypocrisy: GPS-jammed Ursula von der Leyen speaks again
From “Europe must fight” to drones sold as peace and a tale of stolen children debunked, the EU president’s state of the union was heavy on rhetoric and light on reality.....

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen delivered her annual state of the union speech in Brussels on Wednesday. It was a performance full of urgency and sweeping rhetoric – Europe’s “fight,”an “independence moment,” and even plans to turn frozen Russian assets into weapons for Ukraine.

But behind the soundbites, her vision is riddled with contradictions.

proud like a weed in a field of noodles....

Kaja Kallas, the European Union’s de facto foreign minister (and former prime minister of Estonia), is unusually, grotesquely incompetent, even for an unelected EU apparatchik.

Like former German Foreign Minister Annalena “360 Degrees” Baerbock – now instagraming like an excited upper-class teenager from her ill-begotten UN sinecure in New York – Kallas also displays an enormous capacity for being pleased with herself. She appears never happier than when holding a mic to her own platitudes, presented in a mortifyingly basic form of very labored English, while being obsequiously soft-balled by a fawning interviewer.

 

america was always the naughty empire, eager to destroy russia....

Abstract- If the Soviet Union was the “Evil Empire” of the 1980s, it seems in the modern era the roles have switched and now the US/West is the Evil Empire, seeking to impose itself and stamp out foreign cultures and subjugate entire countries.

 

Who is the Modern Evil Empire?    Bryan Anthony Reo

 

to be ethnically cleansed by israeli depravity......

This week, Israel killed my cousin Mohammed, a young and cheerful lawyer, along with his wife Myriam and their only seven-day-old baby, Jaber.

Words fail me as I try to pick up the phone to mourn my caring and patient auntie, who is now displaced, starved, and left alone, having to find medical care for two of her grandchildren who have sustained burns due to Israeli missiles. How do we mourn unceasing wounds and waves of loss, even when mourning has become a privilege?

drones that crossed the border were not launched from russia.....

The Russian military has suggested consultations with its Polish counterparts, after being accused by Warsaw of violating the country’s airspace with drones. The Defense Ministry in Moscow neither confirmed nor denied such violations, but implied that whatever aircraft crossed the border were not launched from Russia.

Multiple Western officials have already accused Moscow of staging a reckless provocation and hailed NATO’s joint response.

Russia and Ukraine have been conducting long-range drone and missile strikes against each other’s territory.

1) What the Russian MOD says

  The Russian ministry’s statement stressed that during its overnight operations, “no targets were planned for strikes in the Polish territory,” according to a statement.

vance, the dumb fascist nazi executioner.......

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul tore into Vice President JD Vance's defense of the U.S. military's strike on an alleged drug vessel leaving Venezuela.

And he cited a long-loved literary classic to prove his point.
