Perfect example of why no one should ever trust Tel Aviv's claims of having "defeated Hamas"... Snip: *The Israeli army announced on 18 September that four Israeli soldiers were killed during clashes with the Palestinian resistance in Gaza’s southernmost city of Rafah a day earlier.* *Several others were injured in the fighting in southern Gaza, including an officer who is in serious condition, an Israeli army statement said.* *The four were killed after stepping into a building rigged to blow by the resistance in Rafah’s Tal al-Sultan neighborhood.* [...] *The operation came the week after Israel claimed the Rafah battalion of Hamas’ Qassam Brigades was defeated.*

LOL, yep. The 'Post is a right-wing paper, so I suppose they just "obligatorily" had to toss that in.
This New York Post article claims that he "championed left-wing causes", but does not provide any evidence for that. However, it does reveal him to be a Neocon warmonger. Snip: *Routh is also a staunch supporter of Ukraine and Taiwan in their respective conflicts against Russia and China. He claims on X that he tried to “sell” the idea of having former Afghanistan troopers fight for Ukraine in Russia, but was denied multiple times before giving up after six months.* *He also visited Kyiv and claimed that he would be willing to fight on the front lines, if he were permitted to.* He was also a supporter of nuclear warmonger Nikki Haley's presidential campaign.
Tel Aviv's assassination of resistance commander Fuad Shukr came at a high cost for the apartheid regime. Snip: *Hezbollah’s retaliatory attack against two Israeli military and intelligence sites in late August resulted in dozens of casualties, European security sources told Al Mayadeen on 12 September.* *Operation Fortieth Day, as it was dubbed by the Lebanese resistance, targeted Glilot base – the headquarters of Israel’s Unit 8200 – and the Ein Shemer airbase.* *The operation was “substantially successful … with fatalities reaching 22 and 74 members injured,” Al Mayadeen cited the European sources as saying.*

I think it would depend a lot on how big of threat these 'long-range' systems actually pose. If only a modest number were delivered and used, Russian air defenses and retaliatory strikes inside Kiev-controlled territory could easily handle that. Russia would then likely respond by delivering various weapons systems (like S-400 air defense systems, advanced anti-ship missiles, and modern warplanes) to the DPRK, Iran, and other allies.
However, in the worst case scenario, if the Western imperialists actually tried overwhelming Russian air defenses, Russia would need to respond by conducting strikes of its own on Western military bases inside NATO countries that would be supplying and covertly providing operators for those weapon systems. It's easy to then see how extremely aggressive acts by NATO could escalate into a nuclear war or "World War III" scenario. Frankly, I doubt that the US ruling class is brave enough to try that -- they have far too much to lose, even with their overseas empire in terminal decline, they still have immense riches at home that they'd rather not see vaporized (not to mention their own lives).
Snip: *Amid the ongoing violence in the Middle East and the NATO-fueled proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, the US military is reportedly eying a new front amid Washington's attempts to save the unipolar world order.* *The US Navy’s elite Seal Team 6 is training for missions to “help” Taiwan if tensions between the island and the PRC go hot.* *Sources told the Financial Times that planning and training for a Taiwan escalation has been underway “for more than a year” at Seal Team 6’s Dam Neck, Virginia Beach HQ.* *The training, which coincides with increasingly systematized deployments of US special forces in Taiwan, comes amid the US military and intelligence community’s broader refocus on China.*

Some more news from the front.
Russian forces have now liberated at least 10 Kursk oblast settlements over the past two days (Apanasovka, Byakhovo, Vishnevka, Viktorovka, Vnezapnoye, Gordeyevka, Krasnooktyabrskoye, Obukhovka, Snagost and 10th October): https://sputnikglobe.com/20240912/russian-army-ousts-ukrainian-troops-from-10-settlements-in-kursk-region-1120121317.html
President Putin also made an important statement today in response to all the NATO chatter about ‘long-range weapons for Kiev’:
“I have already mentioned this, and any experts will confirm, both in our country and in the West, that the Ukrainian army is not capable of [independently] carrying out strikes using Western modern, long-range precision systems. It cannot do this. This is possible only with the use of intelligence from satellites which Ukraine does not have. This data is only available from satellites of the European Union or the United States, in other words, from NATO satellites. That's the first point.
The second and very important, perhaps key point is that only NATO servicemen can make flight assignments to these missile systems. Ukrainian servicemen cannot do this.
So this is not about whether or not to allow the Ukrainian regime to strike Russia using these weapons, but about deciding whether or not NATO countries are directly involved in the military conflict or not. If such a decision is taken, it will mean nothing short of direct participation of NATO countries, the United States, European countries, in the war in Ukraine. This would constitute their direct participation, and this, of course, changes the very essence, the very nature of the conflict. It will mean that NATO countries, the United States and European countries, are at war with Russia. And if this is so, bearing in mind the change in the very nature of the conflict, we will make appropriate decisions based on the threats that will be posed to us.”

The anti-democratic "Democratic" Party political machine has happily leaped into bed together with the most evil Neocon monsters on the planet. Either vote for a left-wing third party presidential candidate or boycott this farcical election. Snip: *Cheney was a charter signatory to the notorious neoconservative think tank Project for the New American Century, and as vice president played a leading role in the George W Bush administration’s soaring warmongering, militarism and authoritarianism, including most famously the invasion of Iraq. He has the blood of millions of people on his hands, and he should be living out the rest of his miserable life in a cage.* [...] *The Cheneys join a growing list of formerly Republican warmongers who are migrating to the Democratic Party in droves to support Harris. Last month hundreds of staffers who served under Republicans George W Bush, John McCain and Mitt Romney signed a letter endorsing Harris, saying that “re-electing President Trump would be a disaster for our nation.”*
Caitlin Johnstone nailed it. Snip: *The Biden-Harris administration is knowingly helping the Israeli government wage a campaign of extermination in Gaza that has shocked and horrified the entire world, so obviously the real villain we need to focus on here is Jill Stein.* *No serious person believes a bunch of socialists and peaceniks are going to vote for a capitalist warmongering party. Democrats don’t *removed* about the Green Party because of lost votes, they do it because they hate being reminded that their party’s a lie and their values are fake.* *Democrats saying the Green Party steals their votes makes as much sense as Republicans saying the Green Party steals their votes. The Democratic Party is not a left wing party. It’s a warmongering capitalist party that is presently engaged in genocide and nuclear brinkmanship.*

And what we are seeing in multipolarity is a continuation of that,” Mandela told Sputnik on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum on Thursday.* *“Many countries do not want to continuously be bowing down to their colonial masters and settler colonialists” today Mandela said, pointing to the example of the Palestinians and their struggle for liberation and statehood.*

Sadly I can't be online all the time -- I have to go to work and get chores done. ;-) However, as someone who has been following events in the Ukraine for over 20 years (half of my ancestors came from that part of the world) and paying very close attention to the ongoing military operation, we can expect to see a continuation of Russia's current war of attrition for the near term. The Russian Armed Forces have a ten-to-one advantage in artillery (and an even larger superiority in aviation) and are gradually blowing Kiev's entire military (plus Western mercs) to smithereens. I do not expect there to be any big Russian offensive until there is a collapse of Kiev's military on some (or all) fronts. And when that will happen is impossible to predict.

You're welcome. Yep, Western troops (operating under the guise of being "contractors" and "military instructors") are very likely to be actually operating both "HIMARS" and Patriot missile launchers in particular.

Snip: *A video is circulating in social media showing Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers wearing Nazi-style helmets harass an elderly villager in what appears to be Russia’s Kursk Region, where Kiev has been conducting a cross-border assault over the past week. The clip is believed to have been filmed by the soldiers themselves.'* The elderly man has now been missing for nearly ten days and it is likely that the Ukrainian Nazis murdered him. Western propagandists that deny the existence of Nazism in the Ukraine are directly responsible for helping enable these Nazi war criminals.

Yep, none of this would be possible without the massive amount of arms that Washington provides directly to its junior partners in Tel Aviv.
Snip: *Israeli forces carried out a new massacre on the morning of 10 August when they bombed a school full of displaced Palestinians near Gaza City, killing at least 100 people and injuring others.* *“The occupation forces targeted displaced persons with three missiles while they were performing the dawn prayer at Al-Tabiin School,” the statement added.*

The author takes a closer look at the USA's massive swarm of so-called "think tanks," which collectively function as a "brain" of the US ruling class. Ultra-wealthy capitalists fund the "think tanks." The "think tanks" then write laws, which legislators pass (often times without even reading them or understanding them).
Yesterday, Washington orchestrated a classic “color revolution” (AKA color coup) against Bangladesh, forcing Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to leave the country for India. As riots raged in the streets, US puppets inside the Bangladeshi military effectively seized power and forced her to resign. Washington’s “National Endowment for Democracy” CIA front had been pouring in millions of dollars to fund various coup-plotting “NGOs” and “protest groups.” Hasina had earlier warned that Washington wanted to carve a Christian state out of parts of Bangladesh and Myanmar. In addition, Washington had also said they would not oppose her re-election if she allowed a US imperialist airbase to be built on Bangladesh's St. Martin’s Island in the Bay of Bengal. She said no and Washington hysterically denounced her recent re-election. Today, the junta installed US puppet and radical neo-liberal economist Muhammad Yunus as “interim leader.” Hasina had once described Yunus as *“sucking blood from the poor.”* Like many US puppets, Yunus had received a CIA-linked “Fulbright scholarship” and a “Nobel Prize.”
Another good reason to boycott the 'Big Tech' monopolies. Snip: *"The Israeli army is using cloud storage and artificial intelligence services provided by Amazon, Google, and Microsoft to commit war crimes against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, as shown by a +972 Magazine report published on 5 August."*
Snip: *“I am ready for anything and count on you to ensure that order, law, constitution and the right to peace prevail in the people of Venezuela. Congratulations!” said Nicolás Maduro.* *“We are guaranteeing you a free and not slave Homeland,” said the head of state in gratitude for the institutional gift of the cadets of the Bolivarian National Guard.*
Snip: *“The decision to remove foreign forces from Iraq is irreversible, and a timetable for their withdrawal will be announced soon,” Amiri said in a press statement.* *“All the evil and what is happening in the region is because of the American presence in Iraq,” the Badr Organization chief added.*

Boycotting McDonalds is very easy and fulfilling. Their low-quality "food" tastes like shit anyway. It feels much better to spend money at better-tasting, locally-owned restaurants too.
Iran's new reformist president, Masoud Pezeshkian, stated that the Zionist regime's assassination of Palestinian liberation leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran will only result in increased Iranian support for the Palestinian people. Snip: *“The Iranian leadership, nation and government will not give up an iota of backing the Palestinian people, and will continue to support the resistance front with the firmer determination,” the president stressed.* *He stated the Israeli Zionist regime has trapped at a dead-end, hence resorted to the acts of aggression and assassination.* Meanwhile, regional anti-imperialist resistance movements are warning of a firm military response to the fascist Tel Aviv regime's recent acts of aggression: https://thecradle.co/articles/hezbollah-chief-says-israel-pushed-resistance-to-open-battle-on-all-fronts
They did not want to die for the fascist regime in Kiev. They escaped and ran for their lives. Snip: *“Three Ukrainian men managed to escape the draft at the last minute after sneaking out of a conscription van while it was stopped at a gas station. The viral video shows three men escaping from a vehicle belonging to the Territorial Recruitment and Social Support Center (TRC) in Ukraine, mere moments before the TRC employees return. After the men ran, the TRC employees attempted to chase, but to no avail.”*
Washington is attempting another coup attempt against Venezuela, following a typical sequence of events seen in many other "color revolutions" (AKA color coups). 1. The US puppet loses the election. 2. Washington deploys CIA/NED-funded rioters into the streets demanding that the US puppet be installed into power against the will of the people. 3. The outcome: Washington's aggressive coup attempt either succeeds or fails, depending on how well organized the country is at defending itself from these coup attempts. In this case, Washington will lose and Venezuela will win -- the people are well organized and are out in the streets defending their country from this US-orchestrated, fascist coup attempt. Many of the violent, far-right rioters have already been arrested.
Great news from the electoral front, President Maduro has been re-elected with over 51% of the vote. Venezuela can continue on its path of sovereign development. Neo-liberals everywhere are crying and raging about this!
More and more Western mercs are running for their lives. Snip: *"Prozorov elaborated that foreign mercenaries complain about the incompetence of the Ukrainian command, their cowardice and betrayal, as fighters were thrown into useless attacks and “meat grinds” under Russian artillery."* The former Ukrainian officer also pointed out that at least several hundred Neo-Nazis from all over the world came to fight for Kiev.
The author, Caitlin Johnstone, summed it up perfectly. Snip: *"You couldn’t ask for a better example of everything Washington stands for than this. Both houses of Congress rising to feverishly applaud one of history’s worst genocidal monsters dozens of times as he lies over and over again is a much better representation of what the U.S. government is about than anything you’ll see during the presidential race from now until November."*
Both countries continue cooperating to fully restore Syria's sovereignty and end the US occupation of parts of eastern Syria.
It raises the question: who is becoming more isolated, the sanctioned or *the sanctioner*?
The Iraqi people want the US occupation forces out. Washington still tries justifying its occupation of Iraq with the threat of the "ISIS" death cult entity, which Iraqi popular mobilization units already defeated years ago.
President Maduro is polling at over 53%. The other nine candidates take the remainder.
Snip: *"Farion was a member of ‘Svoboda’ (Freedom), formerly known as the Social-National Party of Ukraine, led by neo-Nazi Oleg Tyagnibok. She expressed open sympathy for WWII neo-Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera."* Someone just shot her dead. Unclear at this point if it was anti-fascist resistance or a rival Neo-Nazi Banderite grouping that killed her. She was such an extreme Neo-Nazi that she even accused Russian-speaking Banderites of not being "true Ukrainians" and made many enemies.

A Ukrainian Neo-Nazi soldier visited the Auschwitz death camp wearing a shirt quoting Hitler in order to mock the camp's victims. This is the type of truly fascist scum that billions and billions of US taxpayer dollars are going to fund and arm.
