" #DavidWhitehead lays out probably the most insightful grasp of the 20th century geotyranny power grab attempt I've heard. Communism was only one branch of a 3 branch project, maybe more, all run parallel and funded by the same people, the Black Nobility societies.
it's a brilliant listen when he really gets going.

#David-Whitehead and #BernhardGunther - Joining the dots of 20th century #politics and #war
"The basic formula of any dictatorship is, firstly, spreading lies and suppressing the truth. And secondly, destroying any kind of solidarity, so that in the end, you don't even care anymore if your neighbour is arrested, and you just keep quiet," says Christian Halbrock, one of the co-founders of Umweltblätter, the environmental zine printed out of the tenement building basement in East Berlin that Eisenlohr helped to publish. "We didn't want to live with those daily lies, we wanted to live with the truth, and to show with our own, authentic, truthful lifestyle that we were serious about that."
Named "Operation Trap", the raid and arrests were part of the Stasi's attempts to crush a group of people fighting for a cleaner environment – and for the right to speak out. The secret police's tactics ranged from interrogations and jail to bizarre mind games. In one incident, informants who managed to infiltrate the environmental movement covertly took coffee from a shared pantry without putting money into the coffee kitty. It was a psychological manoeuvre, aimed at sowing conflict and mistrust within the groups.
That plan did not work out – neither the psychological manipulation, nor the dramatic crackdown. On the contrary: Operation Trap became one of the very rare cases in history in which the Stasi was forced to back down. Standing against them were a tiny group of self-described peaceniks and eco nerds, who printed a magazine with a run of just a few hundred copies, and regularly ran out of ink. At one point, the US Congress even weighed in and sided with the producers of the little magazine. How did it all happen?
Interviews with dissidents from that time, and internal reports from the Stasi's secret archive, which was opened after the fall of the Berlin Wall, tell the surprising story of how a small environmental movement managed to take on a powerful dictatorship – and ultimately, won.

“Imagine what it would look like? #Ukraine #exports its #weapons during the war while asking partners for #military #aid. Ukrainians would not understand, partners would not understand,” said a senior Ukrainian foreign ministry
Ukraine is currently one of the best places to test modern #warfare #equipment against a confirmed #enemy under real conditions at low cost. Just imagine if the war were to end, an entire #business model would collapse. Surely nobody could want that to happen when the arms industry is doing so well.

Remember when Israel and their apologist were claiming that Israel would never attack hospitals and they were only attacking Hamas fighters who cowardly hiding there.
Now that they have killed all the reporters cut the internet access and media have moved on, they kill ANYONE who walks or crawls around.
But no one cares. We are watching one of the most gruesome mass murderer and state sponsored genocide in front of our eyes..

O’Reilly, who leaves the post in February, said that over her 11-year tenure she didn’t once meet von der Leyen, and was “never at ease” with the “powerful consiglieri” who sit in the Commission president’s cabinet.
Democracy, uh? DISMANTLE THE EU.

There is currently intense and very violent bombing of the hospital, occurring in an unprecedented manner and without any prior warning to the care and nursery department.
The bombing is being conducted with explosive bombs and tank fire, directly targeting us while we are present inside the hospital departments.
We hold the world responsible for what is happening to us, and we demand that they assume their responsibilities towards our suffering. It is unacceptable for the world to remain silent and unable to protect the health system.
We are being attacked in front of everyone's eyes, while the whole world is watching, and yet no one is intervening to confront this barbarism.

There is currently intense and heavy bombing of the #hospital, occurring in an unprecedented manner and without any prior warning to the care and nursery department.
The bombing is being conducted with explosives and tank fire, directly targeting us while we are present inside the hospital departments.
We hold the world accountable for what is happening to us and demand that they take responsibility for our suffering. It is unacceptable for the world to remain silent and unable to protect the healthcare system. We are being attacked in plain sight, with the entire world no one intervening in the face of this barbarity.

Director of Kamal Adwan Hospital Hussam Abu Safia:
The attack that the hospital is currently being subjected to has not been witnessed for 70 days.
We hold the world responsible for its silence regarding the genocide that is happening to the hospital.
Sniper fire penetrated the walls and hit what remained of the medical equipment.
Medical equipment was destroyed after being shot by #Israeli vehicles.

Grande insisted Israel publicly declare it is not following a policy of deliberately starving Palestinians in Gaza. She also called for the cancellation of evacuation orders for civilians, allowing them to return home, and for a detailed plan to protect civilian infrastructure.

Higgins condemned Israel’s labeling of #Dublin as “antisemitic” after it announced its support for the #Palestinian people, stressing that it is dangerous to label a state as such merely for disagreeing with the #Israeli Prime Minister.
The comment came after Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar branded Higgins an antisemite amid the ministry’s decision to close the Israeli embassy in Dublin.

European Powers could conquer so much of the world with what were mostly minor expeditionary forces because European organisational dominance was so great. This implies that what’s happening with those institutions will continue to matter. It’s simply not true—as the authors claim—that Western mass prosperity “was constructed on a flow of wealth from the less-developed world into the West” (p.143) and it is fundamentally innumerate (and economically illiterate) to claim so.

That is, after the 400+ airstrikes on the day after the fall of Assad and the collapse of the Syrian Arab Army, that destroyed 80% of Syria's military capabilities according to #Israel, they keep attacking Syria's infrastructure.
Clearly Israel wasn't against #Assad, but against any #Arab State that could pose a threat to their constant expansion and ethnic cleansing.
