Yemen sinks another British boat and is war likely in Lebanon?

Posted by: John Phoenix Fighters from the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah carry out a training exercise in Aaramta village in the Jezzine District, southern Lebanon, May 21, 2023. (AP Photo/Hassan Ammar) Report 1 looks at the latest Hezbollah spy video that has successfully filmed much of the Zionist civilian, military and spy infrastructure in and around Haifa. I also take into account the nine month messaging by the Zionist military that they will invade Lebanon, are we getting closer to an all out war?: In my second report I look at the victory of the Yemeni Ansarullah forces over the US and UK naval forces and their dominance of the Red Sea to enforce a blockade on Zionist-bound ships: Ansarullah released a more recent video last night showing the attack on the Totor...

NATO brings death to Libya a decade after its barbaric intervention

If the country’s infrastructure hadn’t been destroyed in the bombings of 2011, the dams may have held By: Eva Bartlett People walk past the body of a flash flood victim in Derna, eastern Libya, on September 11, 2023 ©  AFP Just over a decade ago, Libya was in the news, with Western leadership celebrating the murder of Muammar Gaddafi, following a months-long NATO bombing campaign, all in the name of protecting the Libyan people. Now, the destroyed North-African country is back in the news after a devastating hurricane and flooding. Hurricane Daniel hit northeastern Libya on September 10. Subsequent extreme flooding has caused the deaths of a reported 3,252 people, according to Libya’s health ministry as of September 17, with the UN r...

No more ‘endless’ payments to Zelensky

The former president has said that he would “settle” the Ukraine conflict even before assuming office Donald Trump speaks at a roundtable discussion at the 180 Church in Detroit, Michigan, June 15, 2024 ©  AFP / Scott Olson Former US President Donald Trump has said that he would stop handing over tens of billions of dollars to Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky, promising to have the situation in Ukraine “settled” if he is re-elected this year. “I think Zelensky is maybe the greatest salesman of any politician that’s ever lived,” Trump told supporters at ‘The People’s Convention’, a conservative conference held by Turning Point Action in Michigan on Saturday. “Every time he comes to our country, he walks away with $60 billion,” Trump said...

Delivery of jets to Kiev was ‘illegal’ – NATO member

RT The previous government in Bratislava had no right to donate the Soviet-era MiG-29 warplanes to Kiev, State Secretary of the Slovak Ministry of Defense Igor Melicher has said. In March 2023, the interim government of Prime Minister Eduard Heger authorized the delivery of 13 MiG-29s, according to the Slovak national broadcaster TASR. The new government led by Robert Fico has since requested a legal review of the shipment. “The MiG-29 fighter jets were delivered to Ukraine illegally,” Melicher wrote on Facebook on Tuesday. He added that the Defense Ministry is “preparing a legal action.” Melicher made his statement after ombudsman Robert Dobrovodsky, who was tasked with reviewing the delivery of the aircraft, revealed that the government has failed to find the required...

Russia ready to strike NATO airfields hosting Ukrainian jets

Posted by: John Phoenix RT F-16 fighter jets and any airfields they are based at will be legitimate targets for the Russian military if they participate in combat missions against Moscow’s forces, the chairman of the Russian State Duma Defense Committee, Andrey Kartapolov, has warned. The comments come as Kiev prepares to receive the first delivery of US-made fighter jets from its Western backers, after Ukrainian pilots were trained to fly them. In a statement to RIA Novosti published on Monday, Kartapolov clarified that if the F-16s “are not used for their intended purpose” or are simply held in storage at foreign airbases with the intent to transfer them to Ukraine, where they will be equipped, maintained, and flown from Ukrainian airfields, then Russia woul...

NATO Uses Ukraine as Sacrificial Pawn in Defeating Russia

By delivering weapons and deploying military advisors in Ukraine, NATO is now waging a proxy war against Russia, said the chairwoman of the Left Party parliamentary group. Sevim Dagdelen, a member of Germany's Lower House, accused the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) of fighting a proxy war against Russia by supplying military aid to Ukraine. RELATED:  Sweden Fails to End NATO Membership Standoff "If we picture this conflict as a game of chess, then NATO is looking for pawns that can be sacrificed if need be, to secure a better position," she stressed. By delivering weapons and deploying NATO military advisors in Ukraine, NATO is now waging a proxy war against Russia to defeat the nuclear power through a combination of military force and an all...

FROM MEMES TO DOXXING: UNMASKING NATO’S INFORMATION WARFARE STRATEGY

NATO’s shocking ‘Humour in online information warfare’ working paper reveals a sinister strategy, encouraging cyberbullying and doxxing as tools of war, unraveling the disturbing reality of meme-driven manipulation in online spaces. In November 2023, NATO’s “Centre of Excellence for Countering Hybrid Threats” published a disturbing ‘working paper,’ “Humour in online information warfare: Case study on Russia’s war on Ukraine.” It received no mainstream attention. Yet, the contents offer unprecedented insight into the military alliance’s insidious weaponization of social media to distort public perceptions and manufacture consent for war. They also raise grave questions about online “trolling” of dissident voices over the past decade and beyond. The working paper ostensi...

NATO/West or Global Majority?

Unipolar Destruction or Multipolar Development? The World Must Choose MICHAEL HUDSON  RADHIKA DESAI: Hello and welcome to the 19th Geopolitical Economy Hour, the program where we discuss the evolving political and geopolitical economy of our time. I’m Radhika Desai. MICHAEL HUDSON: And I’m Michael Hudson. RADHIKA DESAI: And we bring you this program with the help of our host, Ben Norton, our videographer Paul Graham, and our transcriber Zach Weisser. The carnage in Gaza has paused, though the possibility that this will open the door to a permanent resolution is remote. Little else seems to have changed. The U.S. remains doubled down on its one-sided support for a murderous Israel, the tail that wags the U.S. dog. MICHAEL HUDSON: Well, it’s not only the...

Is War with China Inevitable?

MIKE WHITNEY  What changed in the US-China relationship that is pushing the two countries closer to war? No one seems to know. Readers who follow developments in China closely, know that relations between the two superpowers have grown increasingly strained in the last few years. But while the US has taken a more hostile approach to China, no one seems to know why. Was there something in particular that China did that angered Washington leading to the imposition of economic sanctions, technology blockades and military provocations in the Taiwan Strait? No, there’s no indication that China did anything. What changed was Washington’s approach to China. And—as you’ll see—Washington’s approach changed very quickly and very dramatically. China went from friend to fo...

And that summitry has been pretty exhausting. There was the fateful NATO summit in July, where mu...
