The Israeli Defense Forces are monitoring arms smuggled out of Ukraine and weapons captured by Russia over fears they could be used by Iran. A recent Pentagon report found insufficient tracking of weapons shipped to Ukraine via Poland. On Thursday, a senior IDF commander expressed deep concern regarding the situation. “It’s really challenging to build the picture, but we see the signs,” the Israeli commander told Newsweek. “We see the signs, and this is very, very troubling.” Click for Full Text!

They Are Doing Their Best To Provoke a Nuclear War With Russia

Even though most Americans aren’t paying much attention at this point, the way that the war in Ukraine is evolving should greatly concern all of us. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his generals very clearly understand that they are in very big trouble unless they can draw the U.S. and other NATO powers directly into the conflict. All of Bakhmut is now under Russian control, and the Ukrainians continue to lose troops at a staggering pace. They are holding a losing hand, but if Ukrainian leaders can find a way to get the Russians to use tactical nukes or other weapons of mass destruction, that would change everything. Western powers would feel compelled to respond in kind, ...

It’s not the Russians who are perverse and barbaric. It’s the Western regimes and their Nazi terrorist front in Ukraine. Western media would have its consumers believe that Russians are the most devious, perverse, and self-destructive people on Earth. Following a flood of jaw-dropping, biblical proportions in the Russian-controlled Kherson region this week, the Western media amplified the Kiev regime’s talking points, which is to say, the Kiev regime’s Western sponsors’ talking points.

Why Do We Elect Politicians and Governments That Wage War on Sovereign States?

After reading two articles in “RTD”, I asked myself again why we citizens elect politicians and governments year after year that go to war against sovereign states – for example against the nuclear power Russia? The article by “RIA Novosti” is “NATO plans direct war against Russia” (1) and the second article is a documentary by Anna Chapman “Red Alert: Why is Germany so bent on war?” (2), which was probably first published on 24 January. The people and their citizens are deprived of the management of their own affairs, the determination of their own actions and the care of their own welfare by such an election. Why should the people not be able ...

NATO’s Farcical Balkans Mission

The United States and its European allies love to portray NATO’s military interventions in Bosnia and Kosovo during the 1990s as solid successes. In both cases, NATO partisans stress, the West’s efforts brought bloody conflicts and rampant human rights abuses to an end and put the countries on the road to stability and democracy. This is a greatly oversimplified, if not grotesquely distorted, version of the real history. Both political entities are still dysfunctional international wards decades after the original military interventions. NATO troops continue to police two increasingly fragile political and security environments. Recent events in both Bosnia and Kosovo highlight ...

Let’s Not Pull the Pin on the Grenade to See What Happens

Allowing Ukraine to join NATO is akin to pulling the pin on a grenade and waiting to see what happens. The threat of Ukraine’s admittance to NATO was one of the stated reasons that prompted Russia to invade Ukraine. Pro war advocates claimed this was nonsense and there was no plan to admit Ukraine into NATO. That claim was dubious at best. Still, if there were discussions and negotiations taking place regarding Ukraine’s admittance into NATO, that discussion ended when Russia invaded Ukraine. If Ukraine’s admittance into NATO was one of the issues that caused the war to begin, threats to allow admittance would only prolong the war or end any future peace treaties. It became ...

The invaluable Costs of War Project has long reported that close to a million people, including Americans, died in the major zones of conflict in this country’s post-9/11 war on terror. It’s worth stopping a moment to take that figure in. Almost a million deaths — and mind you, that’s in a war (or actually a series of conflicts) that, despite what you might hear in this country, is not over. From Syria to Somalia, Americans are still pursuing it. Click for Full Text!

In response to a drone attack that hit Moscow on Tuesday and targeted residential buildings, Cleverly said Kyiv has the right to “project force beyond its borders to undermine Russia’s ability to project force into Ukraine itself.” He added that “legitimate military targets beyond its own borders are internationally recognized as being part of a nation’s self- defense.” Click for Full Text!

The commander of the Czech Republic’s armed forces said the North Atlantic alliance and Russia are on the path to a direct war. The general described the potential war as the “worst-case scenario” but emphasized that it remains a distinct possibility. General Karel Rehka, the chief of the Czech armed forces general staff, told his country’s parliament on Monday about the potentiality of a war between NATO and Russia. “No one wants it at all, but it is not impossible. It is necessary to stop saying that this is not possible, because it is simply possible. It can happen and it is necessary to prepare for it in the long run,” he said. Click for Full Text!

Ukraine and its Western backers are planning to hold an international summit to increase support for Kyiv’s terms for a settlement to the conflict with Russia, The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday. While being sold as a peace summit, the plan does not involve inviting Russians. Andriy Yermak, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s chief of staff, reiterated Kyiv’s position that it won’t hold talks with Moscow unless Russia withdraws from all the territory it has captured, a position that is a non-starter for negotiations.

The exercises, Israel’s largest since “Chariots of Fire” in May 2022, are simulating a war which begins with fighting in the north and then spreads to other fronts, namely Iran. “The Joint Chiefs of Staff exercise ‘Firm Hand’ began today and will last for about two weeks. The exercise will simulate multi-arena combat in air, sea, land, electromagnetic spectrum, and in the cyber arena,” according to an Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) statement. Click for Full Text!
