Vox, as usual, assembles one of the better takes on the very murky picture in Palestine and the ME:

Green Flag or Neoclown Bait?

At this point, it’s looking fairly conclusive that the Hamas attacks were a Green Flag, which is to say that the Israeli intelligence and defence forces knew they were coming, but permitted them to happen, in order to justify an attack on Gaza that would trigger Hezbollah involvement and/or the sinking of the USS Ford that would serve as a justification for the US-Israeli war on Iran that has long been sought by the neoclowns.

However, given the fact that this is all readily apparent even to outsiders and amateurs like us, what are the chances that it was not obvious to the point of being predictable to the Chinese, Russian, and Iranian strategists? After all, I even suggested the possibility of them opening up a Middle Eastern front in order to further strain US military resources several months ago.

I thought that Iran or Syria would be the Second Front of World War III, prior to China opening Taiwan, Korea, or even the Philippines as the Third Front. But it appears Niger may have already claimed that honor. Still, the Middle East is already drawing more US troops and ships away from the Ukrainian Front.

One Russian observer believes there are wheels within wheels here, which is to say that the neoclown plan was not only anticipated, but is being utilized by its enemies:

Please read the whole thing. Try to understand that while this has a lot to do with Palestine and Israel, it reaches far further. Know that while neither Hamas or the IDF is completely innocent, Israel, along with the GAE, bears the lion’s share of responsibility for the regional turmoil over the last 75+ years. You don’t have to like this, you just need to try to understand it. If you cannot, and you continue to support the one-sided oppression and genocide of a very poor people and you somehow believe that in any way benefits America or the West or anyone else except the devil, then please cease reading anything I write and totally dissociate yourself from me and my blog. Thanks. PL

Michael Hudson speculated about what the BRICS+ non-currency will look like.

John Maynard Keynes proposed an alternative to holding dollars – something like an anti-Bretton Woods. His aim was to avoid US financial dominance by creating a fiat currency, the bancor. That was not a form of international money, but had a special purpose as an asset of “paper gold,” akin to what the IMF later introduced as Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) in response to the US Government itself needing a bailout as its foreign military spending pushed its balance of payments deeply into deficit during the 1970s war in southeast Asia. Bancors or SDRs could be issued to countries running balance-of-payments deficits to pay payments-surplus countries.

The distinction between a “BRICS currency” and a “BRICS bancor”
This is the problem that the BRICS+ and Global South countries are trying to solve today. The popular press has confused matters by referring to a “BRICS currency.” It is not a currency like the euro or the ruble or renminbi. It is not a currency that anyone could spend at the grocery store or to pay rent. It is not “money” as generally understood. It is not a currency that can be traded on foreign-exchange markets, and certainly cannot be bought by speculators (although they could gamble on what it might exchange for, something like betting on a horse race without having a horse or jockey in the race).

Domestic money, like the dollar or euro, ultimately derives its value from being accepted by national governments in payment of taxes or other transactions with the public sector. That makes such money fungible. Money in that sense can be thought of as a public utility. But providing such currency for a number of countries requires a common government, fiscal authority and legal system. If the currency is to be issued by a number of countries – like the euro – it therefore requires a political union empowered to allocate who gets how much of the currency. No such political foundation yet exists for the BRICS. In President Putin’s words, countries are “at different stages of development.” More to the point, their mutual trade and investment is nowhere near in balance at present. That imbalance is the major problem to be solved, just as it was in 1944-45. It is a balance-of-payments problem, not one of financing domestic government budgets and spending.

There are many similarities between the occupied Palestinians and occupied Americans, especially those in the (O)CSA. The biggest similarity is the occupation and oppression. After that, the differences emerge. The People of Palestine 1) evidently want to exist, 2) are capable of learning from a world of modern examples, and 3) fight.

I’d go on, but I realize it’s SEC Saturday! Here’s to the rapid end of the violence (that’s perfunctory), and here’s to the radical zionist terrorists withdrawing and leaving the Muslims and Christians in peace.

Vladimir Putin seems to think the West and the GAE are in the business of looting.

The prosperity of the collective West is largely based upon the “pillage” of its colonies all around the globe, Russian President Vladimir Putin has claimed.

The president made the remarks on Thursday as he spoke during the plenary session of the 20th meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club in Sochi.

The entirety of Western history has been about “endless expansion,” and it still pursues such an approach with the whole world to keep its prosperity, he asserted.

“Western influence in the world is a massive military-financial pyramid. It constantly needs new fuel to support itself: natural, technological, human resources belonging to others,” Putin told the plenary session.

Why, the GAE is only interested in self-defense! As reported in this story about the empire’s downing of an erratic Turkish drone which came too close to imperial troops busy looting the oil and resources out of Syria which the GAE illegally invaded as part of its chaotic neocolonial scheme and international trouble-making tour. It all— Oh, maybe that’s the kind of thing he was talking about.

News From the American Front

The global conflict is real. And it is waged against us by the globalists. White men in America, if they want to survive, might want to consider fighting back. They are being displaced and destroyed. WARNING: 1 graphic image and a host of alarming news and stats. Read that. And I leave you with an optimistic takeaway:

Exile from the institutions our fathers built may turn out to be a blessing in disguise. The soul-crushing mediocrity of the corporate life is infamous for the drab weariness with which it curses human life. The bullshit jobs which managerial bureaucracies spawn in abundance may pay the bills, they may be easy and comfortable, but they also slowly strangle the spirit with their sheer pointless tedium. They become golden cages in which we grow tame and fat while our imaginations die. In the wild lands outside the walls of the institutions we will be forced to live by our wits. This will not be easy, and so it will make those who rise to the challenge hard.

There is another silver lining. As the institutions lard themselves down with affirmative action hires who cannot competently discharge the duties for which they are paid, those institutions will become increasingly incompetent. In the short term, they will try to cover for these deficiencies with outside contractors – surely generating opportunities for those who, on account of their skin colour, have been forced into freelancer status. In essence this will mean that the institutions are having to meet payroll twice over: once for their incompetent employees, and once more for the contractors who actually do the work. This inefficiency will gradually kill the beasts, and the proliferating swarm of free agents doing the actual work will in time feast on their great stinking carcasses, and grow to replace them.

Vox noted recently that, as the jobs White men used to perform, won’t be performed under the new rainbow system, the replacement process opens up the contract problem solver scenario. If or when the time comes, hit your enemies as hard financially as possible. Also, given the dire stakes involved, do consider hitting them in other ways. This is a war, and right now our side is taking massive casualties.

In the great game of “what if”, a few scenarios float around. The Clowns do fear Russia:

    • The most « hard » scenario includes missile attacks on six main airlines and maritime ports of the alliance, including Raminates.
    • A more « mild » scenario is a blow to three NATO military bases with the threat of even more Russian strikes.
    • Even more mild » scenario: Russian aerospace forces will shoot down a US satellite.
    • And in a « power display », a Russian missile will hit an empty warehouse in Poland as a « warning ».

No. 4 seems a little unimaginative or false flaggy, No. 1 as well. 2 and 3, however…

And there likely would be no response.

The US research organization RAND, which is considered to be linked to the Pentagon and the US government, concludes The North Atlantic Alliance may refuse to respond to a possible Russian attack on NATO forces involved in the conflict.

Interesting times, and time will tell.

Serbia, as any ‘Murican knows, is located somewhere between Alabama and Idaho. Hence, it is very important that the GAE continues to meddle in the affairs of this land of vital ‘Murican interest.

In a statement, the Americans are urging Serbia to immediately withdraw its troops from the border with Kosovo.unprecedented ” military development.

In fact, for the same reason, Foreign Minister A. Blinken contacted Serbian President Alexander Vucic.

This is the first time that the United States and Britain have been very concerned about Serb intervention in Kosovo and taking military action specifically afterwards.

So much concern. Very concerned. Here’s hoping Mr. Vucic will quid pro quo the empire and order all yankee forces out of the CSA. Or at least out of Serbia. Yet another losing front for the empire suggests itself.
