Ukraine aided Syrian rebels with drones: Report

The Syrian rebels who deposed al-Assad received drones and other support from Ukrainian operatives who sought to undermine Russia and its Syrian allies, The Washington Post reports.

Citing “knowledgeable” sources familiar with Ukrainian military activities abroad, The Post says that Ukrainian intelligence sent about 20 experienced drone operators and 150 first-person-view drones to the Idlib headquarters of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham four to five weeks ago.

The Post described these efforts as playing a “modest role” in the overthrow of al-Assad, but said they form “part of a broader Ukrainian effort to strike covertly at Russian operations in the Middle East, Africa and inside Russia itself”.

Iranian official blames al-Assad for ignoring warnings

Mohammad Bagher Ghaliba, Iran’s parliament speaker, has acknowledged that the fall of Syria’s al-Assad has “disrupted the momentum” of the Iran-backed “axis of resistance”.

Iran’s IRNA state news agency quoted him as saying that al-Assad’s government ignored Iranian warnings before the rebel advances that ousted him.

If those warnings had been heeded, he said, “today the Syrian nation would not be on the verge of internal chaos, sectarian settlements, and damage to national assets”.

>Meta ‘silencing Palestinian content and suppressing the Palestinian narrative’: Report
>A new report has revealed that Meta enforces unjust policies against Palestinian content, deleting posts or restricting visibility under claims of policy violations, while turning a blind eye to hate speech and incitement against Palestinians.
To be fair, not hiding the genocidal rants of the Zionists, that's a feature not a bug.
Normal people that read those will not be moved to dehumanize Palestinians, instead they get to witness what an absolute mind-fuck Zionism is.

>“The continued discriminatory practices by Meta against Palestinian content constitute a clear violation of international standards for freedom of expression,”
The violation of expression-freedom already occurred when they put in the technology means to do that, not when they began abusing it.

Israel violating ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, says Iran’s president

Iran’s President Pezeshkian, during his address at the D-8 summit in Cairo, said “the first step to stopping the aggression is to pressure Israel for a ceasefire in Gaza and to halt attacks on Lebanon and Syria.”

This is the top humanitarian and ethical priority for regional countries and D-8 members, he said, adding that Iran supports any “agreement that is accepted by the Palestinian people and has the consensus of all Palestinian groups”.

In Lebanon, Pezeshkian said “despite extensive efforts to prevent the killing of civilians and innocents, a ceasefire text was eventually prepared, and the resistance, despite some reservations, agreed to it to strengthen national unity.

“However, unfortunately, the other side [Israel] is violating the ceasefire. We urge other countries to provide extensive support, both in terms of pressuring the Zionist regime to fulfil its commitments and in the reconstruction and normalization of life, as well as economic and infrastructural assistance to Lebanon.”

Israeli soldier accused of Gaza war crimes flees Sri Lanka over arrest fears: Reports

An Israeli soldier accused of carrying out war crimes in Gaza has fled Sri Lanka at the insistence of the Israeli government, according to reports.

Gaza war crimes monitor the Hind Rajab Foundation filed a complaint with Sir Lankan authorities, the International Criminal Court and Interpol after they discovered that Israeli soldier Gal Ferenbook – who the foundation alleges killed a Palestinian in Gaza and desecrated his remains – was on the Indian Ocean island.

After being outed by the foundation, Ferenbook was warned by the Israeli government on Wednesday to leave the country over the risk of arrest. Follow-up reports in local Sri Lankan media say the soldier fled the country on Friday.

The war crimes allegations stem from a video shared on Ferenbook’s Instagram account in August that shows him inside a military vehicle displaying the remains of a Palestinian man who had been killed on a monitor and laughing with other soldiers who refer to him as “the terminator”.

“The mocking and celebratory tone strongly suggest Mr. Ferenbook’s direct responsibility for the unlawful killing of a Palestinian civilian and further document the destruction of civilian infrastructure outside of military necessity,” the foundation said.

The first known case of an Israeli soldier accused of involvement in war crimes fleeing a country at the insistence of the Israeli government reportedly occurred in November, when a reserve officer fled Cyprus where he was on holiday with his wife.

Holy fuck lmao

Look at the fucking nerd. Being a pedant is fucking GAY.

The law enforcement are criminals defending racketeering schemes to rob the population. They should be in jail.

Even just finding a clear definition of what a "racket" is is hard on google search, because they're burying it and someone's shutting down pages that give a clear definition.

>Racketeering originally got its name in 1927 from the Employers’ Association of Chicago. It defined a “racket” as a business that creates its own demand–something that would not be needed otherwise, such as the classic “protection racket,” in which gangsters coerce payment from business owners to keep their businesses safe from crime.

https://www.getlegal.com/what-is-racketeering-meaning-examples-rico-charges/

Banks (loan sharks in the modern era, not real banks that securely store things) create demand for loans by giving loans for necessary and scarce commodities, which removes the purchaser from price negotiation since they have to buy it no matter the cost. After the prices have inflated beyond what people can afford, they are forced to get a loan to acquire necessities. So "banks", loan sharks, manipulate prices with loans to force everyone to get loans from them.

Landlords purchase housing in areas with housing scarcity (or orchestrate mass immigration to create housing scarcity) which then forces people to pay for their service. You can take any city people need to live in for work and create housing scarcity through your purchases and force them to rent from you. Landlording is a racket. Temporary housing is called a hotel, and it doesn't take residential properties off the market.

Health insurers demand a 90% discount from doctors and hospitals (using mafia and threats) to raise prices 1,000% on everyone else, forcing everyone to buy health insurance from them. They create the demand for the service they're providing.

These are all really obvious fake businesses, rackets, that coerce people to pay someone for nothing, they create demand for the service that otherwise wouldn't be needed.

You kinda do. You're fixated on this one media story while you ignore the rest of reality that contradicts your argument.

>disingenious to say, or, imply, you have to have a political lobbyu in public view to influence the motives of a government and it's people.
It's kinda unavoidable, any significant influence is going to get noticed.

>spent millions of dollars on media
You are in effect arguing that funding media is election interference. If you applied that as a principle, it likely would have very dramatic consequences. I wonder how the media landscape looked like if media could only get money from small donations from it's audience. Tbh i haven't investigated, so i can't really speak to this.

Regardless, if you are making the accusation that the political processes were interfered with, you kinda have to show what the alleged interference has done ? If this doesn't do anything, why care about this ? unless it's just a pretext for a political which-hunt.

Looking at the effects of the machinations of the Zionist lobby, very dramatic violations of democratic rights have occurred. There's an example for you.

>Of course I'm incredulous. Why would anyone with a skeptical bone in their body or any sort of critical thinking skills be anything but incredulous after eight years of endless lies and manufactured controversies about the Russian boogeyman?
Yeah they cried Russia-gate so many times. And they've made false accusations against anti-war people, almost equating opposing the drive to war with treason. That was the point where i checked out and filed the hole thing under warmongering.

>>486384
>If you cannot take the time out of your day to read factual information
The mainstream media are sales people who try to sell wars, factual information is incidental.
They invented weapons of mass destruction and infanticide to sell a war in Iraq, they invented chemical attacks in Syria, and at some point they even claimed China was murdering between 1 and 2 million people in extermination camps.

If they say stuff that sounds like another sales-pitch for war, it's not unreasonable to just dismiss it.

Smells like bullshit.

>>486450
wikipedia is not a reliable source for stuff like this.

Arguably the only big antisemitic thing the Soviets did was going along with the creation of the state of Israel.

People often forget that Palestinians are ethnically Semitic, and that makes Zionism an antisemitic project.

To be fair the soviets realized relatively quickly the direction Israel was going into and course corrected somewhat.

The 2 other ways Isreal as a Zionist project is antisemitic is because they claim to act an speak in the name of Jews in general, which damages the reputation of Jews. Then there is the Zionist alliance with hardcore Jew-haters. Zionists and their Jew-hater buddies have a common goal of concentrating all the Jews in Israel.

Maybe this could be the beginning of something. It is worrisome that H5N1 crossed the species barrier twice already: bird to cow and cow to human. But as long as it doesn't easily do Human to human transmission. You don't have to panic, burn all the cattle and wrap your self in cellophane just yet.

But at the moment there's other stuff to worry about. That Russian general that was assassinated a few days ago, was known for having discovered Biolabs in Ukraine. There appears to be a link to the US as well.

There were a lot of rumors about them trying to make racist viruses that specifically target Russians. Obviously viruses do not care about categories that humans made up so that's impossible to do. However it doesn't mean they didn't cook up a nasty bug none the less. Deluded racialists who think they would not be affected might end up releasing it.

And the fact that they killed the guy who was raising the alarm, gives pause for thought.

>Dr. Rick Bright, an immunologist, vaccine researcher and director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority from 2016 to 2020, recently said:

< It’s so critical that the US government is being as transparent as they can right now, overly transparent, and sharing all of these sequences and all of this data so the world can look at it and make their own risk assessments and start making their own vaccine if they need to in their own countries instead of waiting for the United States to say what’s good and what’s bad…

>Already by April (the H5N1 outbreak in cattle was belatedly announced on March 25), three national veterinary organizations had written a letter to Secretary Vilsack demanding increased transparency and data sharing, saying:

< One way communication will not be effective in uniting regulatory and industry partners to mitigate and control the outbreak. Please encourage open communication, solicit feedback in the creation of guidance, allow access to data and results and continue to allow this coalition unfettered access to our APHIS and Field Staff.

>Vilsack followed the USDA playbook and moved at a snail’s pace even to respond to the letter. It took a month for his reply to arrive, a virtual eternity when it comes to controlling the rapid spread of novel pathogenic viruses. In his reply, he made no promises, merely saying that he was “absolutely committed to timely, accurate, ongoing and coordinated communications about this situation.”

>Even state departments of agriculture, no enemy of the dairy industry, expressed concern with the USDA response. The National Association of State Departments of Agriculture sent Vilsack a letter in June demanding that the outbreak be treated primarily as an issue of animal health and that the USDA increase data collection and sharing on the outbreak.

Basically there's an incredibly virulent and deadly infection percolating within and around the dairy industry and nothing is really being done to stop it. If left unchecked it's likely there's only a matter of time between us a pandemic which makes corona look like an outbreak of the sniffles.

This is a partially correct analysis.

However you ought not conceptualize the state as a unitary thing. There are lots of different parts to a state. The same thing applies to the law.

Modern states are suppressing clan-society bullshit like honor-killings and blood-feuds. That's a good thing.
But modern states are also getting infiltrated by mafia organizations that are trying to legitimize their thuggery and make the police do what used to be done by goon-squats.

Think about copyright and patents in the context of the health-care industry. It's basically an ideological veneer for big and powerful mafia organizations declaring healing with medicines as their turf and taking a cut. But unlike street-mafias they're not fighting these turf wars with gang-violence, they are manipulating the state apparatus to do it with state violence.

The street-mafias also manipulate the state, usually via bribery and blackmail directed against low level functionaries of the state. So even in the embryonic stages the pattern already exists in some forms. Many small time mafiosi have aspirations to "go legit" and that can mean conforming their mafia-activities to what is considered "reputable business practices". However quite often they don't mean to change what they do, they mean to change the state and the law. They seek to conform the conception of legitimacy not their activities. When they succeed you get these absurd situations where what used to be a crime is redefined into enforcement.

When for example a street-gang raids and destroys the make-shift laboratory for biologically active substances of a rival gang, we call that gang-wars and talk about crime-syndicates. But when the exact same turf-struggle happens on a larger scale all the words change. It will get described as pharmaceutical company suing one another one for patent infringement and it's law enforcement shutting down the production of infringerínos or what ever the "correct" jargon is.

Obviously many people are harmed and killed because of what those gangs do and that's why it's considered organized crime. But the body count of the corporate sector dwarfs that, but somehow they're not considered organized crime. The difference is a mafia that got big enough to manipulate the state and the law.

There fixed that for you. The dprk does not fuck around, they still have that brutal war from the 1950s in the back-view mirror.

I think the coop attempt might have been linked to a neocon scheme to convert ROK into a weapons factory masquerading as a country. So if it had succeeded the Chinese might have intervened before the DPRK nuked them, but still.
