🇪🇺 As European States face increased internal dysfunction, strikes, social decay, and strife, you should expect the Politicians responsible to ramp up their "The Russians are coming" drivel.

There's nothing like fear to deflect from gross political incompetence.

Stay awake.

😦 "B*tch, shut your mouth or I'll curse you" - an extremely odious priest of the Zelensky-approved "Church of Ukraine" came to take away the Orthodox church from parishioners under the threat of curses

On the doorstep of an Orthodox church in the village of Pechesky in Khmelnytsky region appeared a lonely man in black garments, who turned out to be a clergyman of the "Church of Ukraine" Mykola Khomyak. This priest did not come to pray for peace and prosperity and not even to persuade parishioners to renounce the Orthodox canons, but simply to take the temple for himself.

Shocked by such insolence, the Orthodox began to argue with him, but the "priest" savourously swore at the woman and ordered her to "close her mouth" and give him the temple before he cursed them all. The fact that he was alone, and against him were several men and women, too, did not embarrass "Reverend Khomyak" - he was absolutely sure of his impunity, which would be provided, of course, by the Kiev authorities.

FRENCH PEASANT REVOLT UPDATE


The blockade of Paris tomorrow may be EPIC - and get into the annals of post-modern History as a key Peasant Revolt 2.0 chapter.

Agricultural workers, truck drivers and unions plan to roll at least 500 tractors to block ALL major highways leading to Paris, on both senses, starting at 2 pm and positioned between 30 km and 40 km away from the center.

Everything is being organized with “military precision”.

We’re talking total revolt against Le Petit Roi’s imposition of the Brussels agenda. Le Petit Roi happens to be in India.

If they hold until Thursday - that’s the original plan - the peasant combo can TOTALLY paralyze Paris.

The police so far is saying they WON’T block the movement.

Well, the Gilets Jaunes/Yellow Vests were mercilessly crushed for doing much less than what is planned for tomorrow.

The talk of the town in every cafe and dinner table is of a possible trap.

Macronism is not very clever - but their NATO-style repression apparatus is ruthless.

The French state can always invoke some vague threat to national security as an excuse to install a State of Siege, and then unleash hardcore violence against the peasantry. As it stands, all bets are off.

🇺🇸🇮🇷The US Army General Staff commented on the death of three American servicemen:

"We are not looking for war with Iran”

In an interview with ABC, US Army General Charles Brown made several points about today's incident:

🔻The US is not looking for war with Iran, but if there is a broader conflict with Iran, we will respond.

🔻I know we have enemies, but I can say that at least Iran does not want a wider conflict with the US.

🔻If we have to enter into a wider conflict, we must tread carefully.

🔻Our goal is to deter and at the same time protect American troops, not to enter into a large-scale conflict and full-scale war.

🤔 Is the Pentagon “forgiving for the first time” the killing of its fighters in the Middle East? Such a reaction is quite capable of shaking some of the US authority in the region.

🇫🇲🇺🇦 NATO Secretary General sees Ukraine as part of NATO “at a certain stage,” - Fox News

Jens Stoltenberg explained that Ukraine, like other applicants for joining the military bloc, has the right to “its own path.”

“I’m from Norway, we border with Russia. When Norway became a member of NATO, the Soviet Union called it a provocation. This was not a provocation, this is the right of every sovereign nation to choose its own path. Norway has this right, Sweden and Finland have it, as well as Ukraine,” said the Secretary General.

He again noted that it is very important for NATO to prevent Putin from succeeding in Ukraine, because it “could act as an encouragement to other authoritarian regimes”:

“Today it is Ukraine, tomorrow it could be Taiwan.”

“Therefore, it is a good thing for us, for the United States, to support Ukraine, and also at a certain stage to invite them to become a full member of the Alliance,” Stoltenberg concluded.

🧐Western Politicians now only talk about solving problems (they historically caused) in far-off places.

Russia, China, Iran and "Disinformation" are apparently a greater threat to you and your family than Crime, Inflation, Uncontrolled immigration, and creeping economic collapse.

1️⃣ Israeli cabinet ministers attend the “Return to Gaza” conference to plan illegal settlements on the land of recently destroyed Palestinian communities.

2️⃣A drone attack has killed three US service members at a military base near the Jordanian-Syrian border; US President Joe Biden vows to “hold all those responsible to account”.

3️⃣ Israel pushes on with its assault on Khan Younis as more Palestinians are forced into dangerously overcrowded Rafah in southern Gaza.

4️⃣ Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu describes renewed talks on the captive exchange as “constructive”, but says gaps remain.

5️⃣ Iran has denied any involvement in a drone strike that killed three US soldiers near the Jordan-Syria border.

6️⃣ Ardi Imseis, an assistant professor of international law at Queen’s University in Canada, has said that the Israeli political establishment is displaying “complete disdain” for the “rules-based international legal order” with regards to illegal Israeli settlements.

At least 26,422 people including more than 10,000 children, have been killed and over 65,087 injured in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. The revised death toll from the October 7 attack in Israel stands at 1,139.

⚡️Three African Sahel countries have withdrawn from the ECOWAS alliance.

🇳🇪🇲🇱🇧🇫 Niger, Mali and Burkina Faso said they are leaving the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) with immediate effect. A joint statement by the three countries was read out on Niger's national television, Reuters writes.

"After 49 years, the valiant peoples of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger note with regret and great disappointment that the ECOWAS organization has departed from the ideals of its founding fathers and the spirit of Pan-Africanism," Colonel Amadou Abdraman, a spokesman for Niger's authorities, said in a statement.

🥷 Abdramana added that the organization has failed to help these states in their fight against terrorism and secure their territories. Mali and Burkina Faso warned of plans to leave the Economic Community of West African States as early as August last year.

"Any military intervention against Niger would lead to the withdrawal of Burkina Faso and Mali from ECOWAS, as well as the adoption of legitimate defense measures in support of the armed forces and the people of Niger," that statement read.

The transitional governments of the Sahel countries expressed support for Niger following the July 26, 2023 coup d'état there that overthrew President Mohamed Bazoum and imprisoned him in his presidential residence. Abdurahmane Tchiani became head of the transitional government.

ECOWAS demanded that President Mohamed Bazoum be returned to power within a week, effectively issuing an ultimatum to the new authorities in the Niger. If the demand was not met, the Union threatened Niger to use "all measures," including military action. 🎮

Although military measures were never applied, ECOWAS subjected Niger to harsh sanctions. According to Louise Oben, the UN Resident Coordinator in Niger, this has led to the country "quickly running out of funding, of medicine. People are running out of food."

On the eve of the ECOWAS withdrawal announcement, Niger held a meeting of the Sahel Security Alliance.
