Arab leaders are offering Syrian President Bashar al-Assad a deal that includes billions of dollars for reconstruction efforts and a pledge to lobby the west to lift sanctions in exchange for "[asking] Iran to stop expanding its footprint in the nation," according to Arab and European officials that spoke with the Wall Street Journal. Other conditions set by the leaders of the unnamed Arab nations include a pledge from Damascus to engage with opposition and rebel groups, accept Arab troops to "protect returning refugees," and crack down on the captagon drug trade. The secret talks reportedly gained momentum following the devastating earthquakes that struck Turkiye ...

The lobby group argued that the song, which can be heard at many EFF rallies, incites violence and fuels farm murders. They wanted Malema and Ndlozi to apologise and pay R500 000 damages. Previously, Malema stated the party could not afford the exorbitant sum of money requested by AfriForum and further dismissed the claims of inciting violence. During the judgment, the court found the song did not constitute hate speech and found AfriForum had failed to prove the matter.Equality Court rules EFF Kill the Boer song does not constitute hate speech The lobby group argued that the song, which can be heard at many EFF rallies, incites violence and fuels farm murders.

Stop Calling The Iraq War A ‘Mistake’: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix

Stop calling the Iraq War a “mistake”. When you make a mistake, you make changes to ensure that mistake is not repeated. Nobody responsible for that invasion suffered any consequences of any kind, zero policy changes were made, and the unipolarist ideology which led to it has become more entrenched than ever. If the invasion of Iraq was a “mistake”, western government officials would be residing in prison cells at The Hague, countless pundits and journalists would now be working behind cash registers in retail shops, and US foreign policy would have undergone a massive, dramatic overhaul. Instead the exact opposite has happened — the western officials who ...

Israel: Former Mossad chief urges rapprochement with Iran

Israel’s former spymaster has called for his country to explore whether a rapprochement with Iran is possible following a dramatic breakthrough in relations between Tehran and Riyadh last week. Efraim Halevy, the former director of Israel’s Mossad spy agency, made the comments on Wednesday evening in an interview on CNN. Describing the deals as “very startling”, Halevy urged Israeli leaders not to “prejudge” the deal but to find ways of working with the new development. “[Israel should] understand what it is that brought the Iranians to their rapprochement with Saudi Arabia,” said Halevy.

Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro said he sees fighting climate change as a top priority for the Navy as the Biden administration proposes shrinking the fleet by two ships and worries grow about how the U.S. Navy stacks up to China’s. "As the Secretary of the Navy, I can tell you that I have made climate one of my top priorities since the first day I came into office," Del Toro said March 1 in remarks at the University of the Bahamas. Del Toro said he met with Bahamas Prime Minister Philip Davis during his visit and spoke "at length" with him about the climate crisis and focused the bulk of his remarks on climate.

Did you know that nearly one-fifth of all the gold ever mined is held by central banks? As Visual Capitalist's Govind Bhutada details below, besides investors and jewelry consumers, central banks are a major source of gold demand. In fact, in 2022, central banks snapped up gold at the fastest pace since 1967. However, the record gold purchases of 2022 are in stark contrast to the 1990s and early 2000s, when central banks were net sellers of gold. This infographic uses data from the World Gold Council to show 30 years of central bank gold demand, highlighting how official attitudes toward gold have changed in the last 30 years.

Authored by Mike Shedlock via MIshTalk.com, We don't need to up the FDIC limit, we need to eliminate the need for FDIC and create a safekeeping bank... Creating a Safe Bank How many times do we have to go down the duration mismatch road with fractional reserve lending and nearly $9 trillion of Fed QE to prove the current banking doesn't work? Once again, systemic risk morphed into economic stress, bank failures, and then a bailout of the banking system, not just Silicon Valley Bank. If you think only depositors got bailed out, you are mistaken. The Fed put a system backstop on $600 billion in bond losses. And although bank executives will lose their jobs, they cashed out tens ...

COVID-19 Vaccines Can Cause 'Permanent Disabilities,' Says German Health Minister

Germany’s Minister of Health Karl Lauterbach, who once claimed that COVID-19 vaccination is free of side effects, admitted last week that he was wrong, saying adverse reactions occur at a rate of one in 10,000 doses and can cause “severe disabilities.” On Aug. 14, 2021, Lauterbach said on Twitter that the vaccines had “no side effects,” further questioning why some Germans refused to get vaccinated against COVID-19. During an interview on ZDF’s “Heute Journal” on March 12, Lauterbach was asked by anchor Christian Sievers about the claim he made in the summer of 2021, confronting the health minister with his previous tweet that stated the shots are ...

Authored by Andrew Korybko via The Automatic Earth blog, Eurasia’s geo-economic integration took a great leap forward as a result of the Iranian–Saudi rapprochement, which unlocks the Gulf Cooperation Council’s (GCC) trade potential with Russia and China. Its wealthy members can now tap into two series of Iranian-transiting megaprojects in one fell swoop through this deal, with the North-South Transport Corridor (NSTC) connecting them to Russia while the China-Central Asia-West Asia Economic Corridor (CCAWAEC) will do the same vis-à-vis China. The bloc’s de facto Saudi leader has been prioritizing a comprehensive economic reform policy known as “Vision 2030 ...

Putin Issues Cash Bounties In Fight Against Ukraine (PatrioticPost.com)- According to a report, Russian politicians and businesses are offering rewards for burning, capturing, or destroying NATO tanks in Ukraine. Up to $21,450 will be paid to Russian soldiers for capturing a US Abrams tank, and $7,150 will be paid for destroying it. According to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, cash rewards offered by Russian companies and government officials for the destruction of Western military equipment in Ukraine will inevitably encourage more enthusiasts to take on the task. After the US and Germany said they would send tanks to Ukraine, the declaration was made. Berlin reportedly declared it ...

Perhaps the greatest incompetence on the U.S. political scene is the military which spent $9 trillion in the Afghanistan war on terror over a period of 20 years and failed miserably to train the Afghan military to defend its territory. To date, no military officers in charge of this colossal failure have been fired or demoted, while many private contractors and the military industrial complex laughed all the way to the bank, making exorbitant profits off of the Afghanistan campaign while it lasted. Next is an excerpt from americanthinker.com by Olivia Murray of 3/9/23. Now, House Republicans are poking around. Three days ago, Rep. James Comer and Rep. Pete Sessions sent a letter to the ...

Poster Comment:Our Pentagon is too busy stealing taxpayer money by the trillions to develop tools like this. They also developed an artillery spotter that gives exact coordinates within 5 seconds of an artillery piece that fired. At the current rate of loss for artillery, the Ukrainian Army will be defenseless in 2 months. And they have the Zircon, a Mach 9 cruise missile as opposed to the US Navy's subsonic one. And don't forget the Kinzhal, the Mach 12 missiles that digs a 98 foot hole where the target used to be.

It almost looks as though the drone incident with Russia was staged in order to get people to start demanding deescalation. RT: The US is weighing the benefits and risks of drone flights over the Black Sea after losing an unmanned aircraft there while being chased by Russian interceptors, CNN reported on Thursday, citing sources. On Tuesday, Washington claimed that two Russian Su-27 fighters dumped fuel on a MQ-9 Reaper drone conducting a reconnaissance flight in the area, with one jet later colliding with the US aircraft. Moscow’s Ministry of Defense, however, dismissed the accusation, insisting that its interceptors had neither come into contact with the Reaper nor fired a ...

The Byzantines never woke up in time to understand what they had become. Will Americans? When Constantinople finally fell to the Ottomans on Tuesday, May 29, 1453, the Byzantine Empire and its capital had survived for 1,000 years beyond the fall of the Western Empire at Rome. Always outnumbered in a sea of enemies, the Byzantines’ survival had depended on its realist diplomacy of dividing its enemies, avoiding military quagmires, and ensuring constant deterrence. Generations of self-sacrifice ensured ample investment for infrastructure. Each generation inherited and improved on singular aqueducts and cisterns, sewer systems, and the most complex and formidable city fortifications ...

State of the Union: Tuesday’s collision between an unmanned U.S. drone and a Russian fighter jet has real escalatory potential. The hawks haven’t let a second go to waste. The interventionists in Washington are sensing blood in the water, hoping that a recent development in the Ukraine conflict could pull the U.S. into direct military confrontation with Russia. There was no blood in the water, however; just metal and gears from an unmanned U.S. drone. A MQ-9 Reaper drone took off from a base in Romania Tuesday morning for what would be its last reconnaissance mission, trolling international airspace at 25,000 feet to peer into Russian-controlled Crimea. As it headed towards ...
