    The Pardoning of Hunter Biden’s Crimes in Ukraine

    Tuesday, 3 December 2024 — Glen Diesen’s Substack

    Professor Glenn Diesen

    Glenn Diesen

    Joe Biden promised not to pardon his son Hunter Biden, and was subsequently celebrated by the media for being principled and standing up for the rule of law. However, in a not-so-surprising move, Joe Biden reversed his position and issued a sweeping pardon with an incredible legal breadth. The pardon protects Hunter Biden from any crimes he may have committed over the past decade, since January 2014. This date is no accident, as it marks the beginning of the Biden family’s seedy and likely criminal activities in Ukraine.

    Watch: Israeli strike on journalists a war crime

    Monday, 2 December 2024 — Al Mayadeen English

    Back in October, an Israeli airstrike deliberately targeted and killed three journalists, including Al Mayadeen’s Ghassan Najjar and Mohammad Reda, in South Lebanon while they slept. A Guardian investigation reveals the use of US-made precision bombs and evidence pointing to a war crime, exposing “Israel’s” ongoing assault on press freedom and international law. The Guardian’s findings are corroborated by Human Rights Watch’s own investigation, which indicated that the aggression was most likely a deliberate attack on civilians and an apparent war crime.

    By Martin Jay

    The idea that the humble UK citizens would place their trust in the government to direct them on the validity of media’s offerings is beyond parody.

    No comments on Palestinian Clearance Revenues: Israel’s Tool to Collapse the PA

    Palestinian Clearance Revenues: Israel’s Tool to Collapse the PA

    Sunday, 1 December 2024 — Al Shabaka

    Ismat Quzmar
    A Palestinian money changer counts money at an currency exchange office

    Introduction

    Israel’s withholding of Palestinian clearance revenues is a longstanding practice, historically used to punish or manipulate the Palestinian Authority (PA). Since October 2023, the Israeli regime has only escalated its theft of Palestinian funds, bringing the PA to the verge of financial collapse. This policy memo argues that Israel’s weaponization of clearance revenues is not merely an extension of past measures but a reflection of a new, more radical agenda driven by the far-right. While the international community continues to play a moderating role, the memo argues that long-term prospects for the PA and the Palestinian economy remain deeply uncertain as Israel tightens its grip on key financial levers.

    Setback or Strategy: Hezbollah’s Ceasefire Deal Sparks Confusion

    27 November 2024 — MintPress News

    Greg Stoker

    Many are confused by the sudden ceasefire between the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. One of Hezbollah’s initial operational goals was to maintain military pressure on Israel until a ceasefire was achieved in Gaza.

    The REAL reason for the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire revealed

    Israel’s army has suffered many defeats and a 2-month hiatus will serve many purposes as it never came close to succeeding in its tasks.

    The recent news of a ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel should be welcomed, if it is real and the parties are sincere about their statements and intentions. But how much can we trust western media to guide us through the maize of the deal, even its minutia, when we have seen their absolute allegiance to Israel? A recent ‘explainer’ by the BBC laid out all the points. Israel and the Lebanese state will enforce the UN article 1701 for the first time since 2006. In a nutshell, it requires all Hezbollah fighters and their equipment to be shipped north of the Litani river, thus creating a 20 km buffer zone on Israel’s border. Lebanese armed forced are expected to move into this area and to ensure that no Hezbollah presence is ever there and to play the role of some sort of peacekeeper, western police force. You know the kind of thing.

    Syrian Dirty War’s Secret Origins

    Sunday, 1 December 2024 — Global Delinquents

    Kit Klarenberg

    On November 27th, ultra-extremist militants Hayat Tahrir al-Sham launched a vast offensive in Syria. Within days, the Turkey-backed faction seized significant swaths of Aleppo, the country’s second-largest city, and advances elsewhere continue. While disinformation on the scale and success of HTS’ incursions abounds on social media, establishment news outlets remain the primary source of manipulation and deceit. No context to the current upsurge of violence is provided, although reference has been widely made to supposedly “peaceful” protests in 2011 that produced the decade-long Syrian civil war.

    Leaked papers expose a secret military operation that includes planning attacks, suppressing media and brainwashing the British public

    Tarik Cyril AmarBy Tarik Cyril Amar

    Unless you want to be blind, it is obvious that Ukraine under the Zelensky regime is not remotely a free country. In politics, after massive repression, there are only remnants of an opposition, which face continuing oppression and harassment by the government, as even the French newspaper Le Monde, generally naïve about the Zelensky regime, has reported.

    A missile attack on an Israeli gas platform and Hezbollah’s drone strike highlight the growing vulnerability of Israel’s energy infrastructure amid its military expansion. With gas supplies crucial to Israel and its allies, the rising tensions signal broader geopolitical risks. Palestinian campaigners push for a global energy embargo to challenge this reliance.

    How the Strategy of Fighting to the Last Ukrainian Was Sold to the Public as Morally Righteous

    26 November 2024 — Glen’s Substack

    Glenn Diese

    For almost three years, NATO countries have boycotted diplomatic contacts with Russia, even as hundreds of thousands of men have died on the battlefield. The decision by diplomats to reject diplomacy is morally repugnant as diplomacy could have reduced the excess of violence, prevented escalation, and even resulted in a path to peace. However, the political-media elites skilfully sold the rejection of diplomacy to the public as evidence of their moral righteousness.

    Palestinians “are being intentionally massacred, starved, and stripped of everything needed to sustain human life.”

    Saturday, 29 November 2024 — Al Mayadeen English

    Pediatric Intensive Care Dr. Tanya Haj Hassan, who volunteered in Gaza, shared accounts of the horrors she witnessed in Gaza’s hospitals before the UN.

    Haj Hassan said, “Spend just five minutes in a hospital there and it will become painfully clear that Palestinians are being intentionally massacred, starved, and stripped of everything needed to sustain human life.”

    She recalled the story of “13-year-old Amir, who sustained severe neck trauma and kept calling for his sister,” yet “he didn’t recognize that she was the girl in the bed next to him because she had been burned beyond recognition.”

    Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan dared the participants before her to “take a second and imagine all of the children that I just spoke about, their mothers, their fathers, desperately seeking medical care and searching for hope… Then the electricity cuts out. The entrance to the hospital is struck by a missile.”

    Watch: A British Soldier Captured in Kursk, Russia

    Friday, 29 November 2024 — Knowledge Kino

    It has long been known that soldiers/mercenaries are fighting Russians in Ukraine and now inside Russia, in Kursk. Many continue to deny this fact. Recently, the Russian military released an interrogation video of a British soldier/mercenary they captured in the Kursk region. He identifies himself as “James Scott Rhys Anderson,” who served as a signalman in the British army, and then joined the Ukrainian army sometime in 2023, to make some money.

    His interrogation is interesting for one curious reason – his claim of a working-class background, and his refined, public school accent contradict each other. The British have sent a lot of specialists into Ukraine who are leading insurgency and various terrorist efforts. But what do you think?
