“RETURNING TO THE SOURCE”

Why is the return of unity in the Arab-Islamic resistance a fact?

By Ali Al Najafy

The complexity of relations between the various nations that make up the Arab world was undoubtedly altered by the forced implantation in 1948 of an artificial and arbitrary state, created by a group of European Zionists supported by a strong British (political and diplomatic) influence. With each year that Israel remained, the situation of the Palestinian Arab population became more precarious and at the same time the controversies and complications between the Arab states of the region were widening.

His permanence and subsequent influence over the entire region was due to the enormous support of the United States, especially during the period of Donald Trump. But in the current circumstances of geopolitical change with the war in Europe, the interests and priorities of the various actors in the Middle East are clearly affected to unexpected limits and that also reaches Israel.

The effects of Russian actions in Ukraine are shaping reunions and rapprochement between regional actors previously in dispute and that is not good for Tel Aviv. Added to the growing turmoil inside the occupied territories and especially in the West Bank, it is leading Israel's military and intelligence chiefs to try to propose solutions to an impossible situation. Although they manage to get some cooperation from Fatah, the fury of the villagers overcomes the fear that Abbas's henchmen try to impose.

The case of Iran and Saudi Arabia is central in this scenario since both nations have been for years -and fostered by Washington from behind the scenes- in a virtual state of war, measuring themselves militarily in Yemen and more covertly in Iraq and Syria. This undoubtedly worries Tel Aviv a lot since this situation meant a strategic advantage with expectations of increasing over time. It is known that Tel Aviv has been operating in Iraq for some time, increasing its presence after the 2003 invasion. With its Kurdish allies, the Israeli intelligence services with headquarters in Kurdistan have been part of the terrorist activities against Baghdad and especially against Iran.

The case of Syria was especially important for Tel Aviv since it remains one of the Arab countries with which it has been in a state of war for decades. The aggression orchestrated in 2012 from the West (USA, Great Britain and France) promised to end the Arab nationalist government of Bashar Al Assad just as the Anglo-Americans did with Saddam Hussein in Iraq and NATO with Muhammar Al Gaddafi in Libya. Clearly, the prospects were promising for Israel and that is why it gladly collaborates on those plans.

With the Syrians immersed in internal chaos and busy fighting terrorist gangs, the Israelis would take the opportunity to try to take advantage not only of Syrian territory and the internal situation in Lebanon (supporting “Al Nusra” jihadist gangs) but also, to extend its operations over the Horn of Africa and the entire Arabian Peninsula. But despite these grand expectations they were soon conditioned to maneuver without the freedom they thought they expected. In September 2015, Russian President Vladimir Putin, considering what happened in Libya in 2011, aware of what was really happening and anticipating that it could spread to the Caucasus (ISIS terrorism), agreed to help the Syrian Arab Republic to fight terrorism.

We must not forget that context and the actors that were deployed. Despite the controversies that Barak Obama's statements aroused, it was his administration that took the lead in all this display. A confederation of Takfir and Wahabi groups financially supported by Riyadh and other gulf-monarchies, under the direction of Paris and later Washington, tried to tear the country apart and divide it into confessional regions, that is, a Sunni and a Shiite sector. To do this, they tried to implement urban terror with ghost cells that alternately attacking Christian, Sunni, Shia and Alawites targets would create rancor among the communities as they had done (through counterinsurgency tactics) in Iraq during the occupation (2003/ 2011).

Let us also not forget the crushing appearance of “ISIS” over Iraq in 2014 and the crucial role it played in the entire “Fight against Terrorism” hoax deployed by the US and lasting until 2017. The intervention of the Russian Aerospace Forces brought to light several embarrassing situations that betrayed the artificiality of “ISIS”. That exposed the duplicities of that pseudo-Islamic organization that received support from the Americans.

The rapprochement that they have achieved with the efforts of the Donald Trump administration through the “Abrahamic Agreement” with the United Arab Emirates could begin to capsize in the face of this change in relations in the Arab-Islamic world that regroups the Arab-Islamic resistance axis with the Palestinian cause as a center of action. Bashar Al Assad's tour of the Arab Emirates, Russia and Iran seems to demonstrate this, although the most accentuated concern is in the cooperation between Damascus and Tehran.

For Prime Minister Naftaly Bennett and his personal circle, this is due to Washington's loss of political weight in the region, and they accuse this of Joe Biden's unclear and weak management, which has been associated with the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

 

“DEMOCRATIC HUNTING”

When the word democracy is just a decoration of Anglo-imperialism

By Sir Charlattam

Well, nothing can amaze me with more than five decades of service activity, but what I found out as soon as I woke up today already shows that everything is out of control. To give you a better understanding of what I am talking about I will remind you of the case of Julian Assange, who annoyed Washington and its partners in London with his acidic leaks on his “Wikileaks.org” site. Today what is happening in Ukraine is giving rise to similar situations with the obvious aim of censoring and removing those who do not conform to the Russophobic narrative of the war.

This is not really a surprise. Both the US and NATO itself have used these means to silence anything that is a problem for the political image. In Iraq after the 2003 invasion, there were no sophisticated mobile phones at the time but the Iraqi resistance made life miserable for the occupiers with Handyman hand-held video cameras. It was an embarrassing problem for the Pentagon to see its boys caught raping women, sodomising men, or executing prisoners with their hands tied, staging “Al Qaeda” beheadings in Abu-Graib cells or just blowing themselves up in their Abrams tanks or Humvees. The same with our people in the south, especially in Basrah, where there was not a single day when the resistance did not hit an FB510 “Warrior” or take out one of our people. It was a nightmare they still can't forget.

At the time the dissemination of the resistance videos was a difficult mission but although the Americans managed to control communications in Iraq and throughout the region, the videos continued to be disseminated at the risk of being under CIA surveillance.

Iraqi journalists and media outlets that resisted the imposition were quickly quashed, eliminated and in some cases went underground, broadcasting from platforms in Egypt and the Nordic countries.

In Ukraine we have been seeing a number of bloggers and citizen journalists, mostly American and British who align themselves with Kiev and link up with the neo-Nazi battalions “Azov” and “S14”, play the role of whitewashing this dystopian relationship between a Jewish-born president who answers to a section of local oligarchs, with neo-Nazi militias far better armed than what remains of the regular Ukrainian army. NATO. To anyone looking in from outside the borders, this is a very embarrassing affair.

For these exponents of pro-NATO propaganda there is no difficulty in operating. There are even certain inconsistencies with some of these informants who, because of their condition, make the sympathy they try to reflect very dubious. The case of blogger and transgender activist Sarah Ashton Cirillo is paradigmatic of this since, the admiration and rapprochement she shows with these gangs of racist murderers who rape and kill with impunity, she could not be sure of ending up in the clutches of these truly sick people. There is certainly something very, very strange about this apparent symbiosis between the American LGBT movement (sponsored by Hillary Clinton and George Soros) and the Slavic neo-Nazis... wow, it is a paradoxical contradiction, unless it is due to a mere union of convenience and interests.

These “independent journalists” have been far from thoroughly reviewing the actions of these battalions and their use of civilians as human shields in situations such as the siege of Mariupol where civilians who managed to be evacuated testified to this brutal behaviour towards them, adding that among them were “foreigners”, later confirmed to be NATO advisors (the case of Canadian General Trevor Cadieu).

On the other side, those who have criticised Zelensky on social media and even denounced the oligarchic and corrupt system of Ukrainian politics that has been in place since 2014 are being thrown to the dogs (SBU). Even Ukrainian women who had social network contacts with Russian friends have been arrested and subjected to torture and rape. It is very clear that in Ukraine the friends of the NSA and the CIA have everything connected to know what Ukrainians do and think...in the interest of democracy of course.

The Spanish police's spectacular arrest in Tarragona of Ukrainian journalist and blogger Anatoli Shari, a Ukrainian journalist and blogger, highlights the extent of Zelensky's secret services and the cooperation they receive from European agencies to hunt down dissidents. Needless to say, the obsequiousness of the Spanish government is always ready to fall in line with Washington. As soon as I heard about this I called my contact in Madrid to get some details that the media would never let pass and I was lucky. An old comrade who, after his retirement, went to live on the peninsula, was able to tell me more about what had happened.

Apparently Shari has a long history of investigating and exposing the corruption of the Ukrainian oligarchy and when he started Special Operation Z, his reports were dangerously illuminating, putting Volodymyr Zelensky and his benefactors in the spotlight. But since he went from local comic actor to Hollywood star of NATO propaganda, Zelensky cannot be questioned and anyone who dares to do so will face prosecution at the hands of the secret services that are no doubt being coordinated by friends in Brussels.

The capture of this Ukrainian blogger not only demonstrates the falsity of Western democracy but worse, that the Russophobic censorship campaign has failed and adds to the failure of the sanctions stranglehold.

 

 

 

“LOS DEDOS EN LA RATONERA”

Cuando el cazador cae en su propia trampa. Una crisis económico-social más profunda aguarda a Occidente por las arrogantes medidas de La Casa Blanca y entonces ¿Quiénes respaldan a Biden?

 

Por Charles H. Slim

Cuando el presidente Joe Biden y su gabinete de neoconservadores disfrazados de demócratas lanzaron el bombardeo de saturación financiera sobre la economía de la Federación Rusa y una insidiosa campaña de acusaciones falsas (Bucha) todos se restregaron las manos y con una mueca sonriente en sus rostros esperaban que dichas sanciones mataría dos pájaros de un tiro: Ahorcarían a la potencia euroasiática y ello crearía un caos social y político contra el gobierno de Vladimir Putin quien tras semejante catástrofe sería colgado por una turba furiosa en la Plaza Roja.

Pero como estamos viendo, algo salió mal. Ni la economía rusa ha sido estrangulada ni Putin ha perdido el apoyo de su pueblo. Al mismo tiempo, las acusaciones de supuestas ejecuciones sumarias en Bucha repentinamente han sido calladas en los medios ¿Y por qué de ello? Simplemente, tras haberse pesquisado a los supuestos ejecutados se ha comprobado que todos ellos ya habían muerto mucho antes de que les ataran las manos y les vendaran los ojos para simular una ejecución. Pero ¿Qué sucedió?, ¿Quiénes fueron entonces? Ellos habían muerto por las esquirlas metálicas de municiones prohibidas del fuego de artillería ucraniana. Una vez más, se dejó en evidencia el accionar de la maquinaria de propaganda y desinformación occidental direccionada desde Washington.

¿Puede sorprender esto? Estos embustes ya vienen desde hace tres décadas siendo una marca registrada. Los psicopáticos del neocon que han hecho de estas medidas, un arte en la guerra psicológica con las cuales han destruido naciones, a advertirse estas inconveniencias rápidamente perdieron sus sonrisas y poco a poco han empezado a perder su fe en “sleepy” Biden quien pareciera aún no darse cuenta que sus errores podrían costar mucho más a los EEUU y sus socios europeos que lo buscado contra Rusia.

El congelamiento y saqueo de los activos de “Gazprom” en bancos de occidente (incluyendo los 300 mil millones de dólares del Banco de Rusia) simplemente carece de un justificativo legal. La actual opinión pública ya no se traga los discursos de la Casa Blanca y mucho menos le cree los motivos por los cuales está metiéndose en Ucrania. Podrá ser presentado como una represalia contra Rusia o un simple asalto a los bienes económicos del enemigo ruso (lo que implica una declaración de guerra) pero nunca (como los medios occidentales pretenden), una medida sustentada en la ley internacional; en éste último caso, si existiera una pieza legal que le permitiera ello habría que cuestionarse ¿Quién le otorgo legitimación a Washington para implementarla?

Al parecer se han dado cuenta que pretender cortar el abastecimiento del gas ruso a Europa y arruinar la economía de Rusia fue una efímera ilusión.  

La respuesta de Vladimir Putin a esta táctica de terror netamente financiero que enlaza a la banca occidental (Wall Street y La City) fue simple y punzante: “Ahora si quieren gas, habrá que pagarlos en rublos”. Para muchos banqueros y economistas de la línea liberal eso era una broma y nada más, pero al parecer no lo fue en absoluto. Polonia y Bulgaria, dos países que se han puesto a complotar contra Rusia y a las órdenes de Washington han sido los primeros en conocer la decisión de Rusia y simplemente no les causó risa. Por el contrario, además del pánico que ello desato en los funcionarios de ambos estados, los teléfonos en la Casa Blanca no pararon de sonar para preguntarle a Biden ¿Y ahora qué haremos?

La misma preocupación, aunque mucho más disimulada ronda en el Bundestag y en los despachos del primer ministro Olaf Scholz quien apelando a una obsecuencia brutal, intentando cumplir con las espectativas de Washington y Bruselas tratara de resistir comprar gas y petróleo aún a riesgo de arruinar su propio sistema productivo. Para confirmar esta posición el 1º de mayo su gobierno dejaba en claro que “apoyaría” el embargo de petróleo ruso como parte de un sexto paquete de sanciones, una decisión que ya está trayendo consecuencias para los alemanes de a pie.

Todo este descalabro económico propiciado por las sanciones ordenadas por Biden aún no tiene previsibilidad aunque se puede intuir que no traerán nada bueno.

Por supuesto que estas inquietudes han tratado de mantenerse calladas en el país de la “democracia y las libertades” pero, como siempre sucede y contra lo esperado por los políticos, ello se termina sabiendo. De esta forma el presidente polaco Duda y el búlgaro Rumen Radev han dejado entrever su pánico ante la decisión rusa de cortar el suministro de gas y todo por seguir las ilegales instrucciones de Washington.  

Similar preocupación esta sacudiendo a otros gobiernos europeos en especial al alemán quien se ha convertido en el vasallo más estrecho y obsecuente de las locas decisiones de Washington que claramente empujarían a que la guerra se desborde de las fronteras ucranianas.   

 

“¿DESINTEGRACION POLÍTICA DE UCRANIA?”

La falseada realidad que la propaganda anglosajona emite sobre lo que está ocurriendo en Ucrania podría llevar a que se haga real aquel refrán que dice “quien es hoy adulador, mañana será traidor”?

Por Charles H. Slim

Hay quienes suelen decir, rodéate de amigos para salir avante en la vida pero otros recomiendan, se cauto de quienes pareciéndolo en realidad pueden dañarte. Lo que está sucediendo en Ucrania es algo que podríamos asimilar a estos dichos. Más allá de que la propaganda occidental maniquea y simplona habla de una “Rusia mala y una Ucrania buena” quienes se dicen estar del lado de Kiev y de su causa podrían estar preparando bajo cuerdas otros planes que nada tienen que ver con sus aparentes preocupaciones.

Uno de los principales “amigos” que están dándole un fuerte apoyo contra Rusia, es Polonia quien obviamente está siendo la máscara de Washington y Bruselas. Esto le proporciona a los polacos poder tener una injerencia tan directa y profunda en el territorio ucraniano que ya ha despertado las sospechas de muchos en que pueda utilizar esta extraordinaria ocasión para reclamar (junto a rumanos y húngaros) territorios que a comienzos del siglo XX estaban bajo el dominio de Varsovia antes de la Segunda guerra.

En aquel entonces y cuando el Tercer Reich se levantaba en Alemania, Polonia ya ocupaba (desde la guerra de 1918-1919) el oeste de la actual Ucrania y por entonces se dio inicio y progreso al ultranacionalismo con Stepan Bandera, un caudillo quien como líder del nacionalismo ucraniano organizó una lucha de guerrillas contra los polacos. El ascenso del nazismo en Europa influyo en Bandera quien inmediatamente adopto el nazismo y paso a trabajar para la Gestapo con lo cual, logró más poder y más influencia en la región.

La intima relación entre el nazismo y una parte de los eslavos era un tema que siempre estuvo debajo del tapete y había sido convenientemente escondido durante la guerra fría por ambos bloques. La violación de los derechos humanos que se propinaron ambos en medio de la segunda guerra tuvo caracteres tétricos. Hay mucha historia de traiciones, crímenes (Matanza de Volinia de 1943) y despojos que polacos y ucranianos no han olvidado.

La hipocresía es de nunca acabar y en la cual, los políticos de ambas partes tras la culminación de la segunda guerra en 1945 se repartieron a muchos expertos nazis en varios campos de utilidad para sacarles provecho. Uno de esos campos fue sin dudas varios cuadros de las "SS" que no solo fue absorbida por la inteligencia rusa y de los americanos, sino incluso por quienes han hecho de del nazismo una mala palabra.

Polonia nunca se olvidó de esos territorios y solo se vio privado de ellos por la anexión que haría la URSS. Con en esto a la vista se constata que Polonia no era un pobre estado aplastado y repartido entre Alemania y la URSS, sino un oportunista e instigador solapado que al verse en medio de aquellas circunstancias geopolíticas no le quedo otra opción que sufrir desde ambos lados la indescriptible bestialidad de los asesinatos en masa, la miseria y las sangrientas purgas de sus instituciones.

Hoy parece que las actuales circunstancias, son propicias para los polacos y en particular para el ultraconservador gobierno de Andrzej Duda y su primer ministro Mateusz Morawiecki quienes pretenden regresar esas tierras ucranianas al mapa político de Polonia. Obviamente que esta movida no es independiente del control de Washington dado que es el principal interesado en hallar la fórmula en instalarse en suelo ucraniano. Ante esto muchos se debieran preguntar ¿Esta Volodymyr Zelensky y los banderistas al tanto de estas posibles intensiones o aquel es capaz de ceder la soberanía de su país para salvar su carrera política?

Al parecer la opción que estarían barajando en Varsovia sería la de ofrecer tropas que se destacarían en el occidente de Ucrania como una garantía de que los rusos no amenacen su integridad y evitar avances más allá de sus fronteras. Por supuesto que todo esto tiene ruido a un embuste bien urdido desde Washington y Londres, principales interesados (no en buscar la paz y ayudar a Ucrania) sino en arruinar a Rusia y así cercar a China.

Aquí, es donde Naciones Unidas entra una vez más en juego. La planificada intervención de tropas polacas en Ucrania sería en el marco de una “misión de paz” y por ende por fuera de la competencia de la OTAN. Pareciera cubierto bajo un manto de legalidad aunque no hay que dejar de recordar las lamentables acciones de la organización en anteriores agresiones e intervenciones. Igualmente y aunque la distinción legal parece clara, no lo sería tanto para sus intérpretes que podrían transformar esa incompetencia en una competencia excepcional. Los precedentes apuntan a que ello es muy posible.

Por otra parte, que no queden dudas de que una parte de esas tropas serán estadounidenses, británicos y franceses con uniformes polacos con lo cual, la OTAN estaría sin estar.  Por lo pronto esta presencia encubierta ya es una realidad. Actualmente en Kiev quienes dirigen y controlan la seguridad y las operaciones militares serian estadounidenses, con este posible panorama y aquel pasado de una Polonia ocupante ¿Quién cree usted que controlara lo que quede de Ucrania, los ucranianos?

 

 

 

 

“A DARK STRATEGY”

When everything counts but the lives of innocent civilians

By Sir Charlattam

The attacks carried out on April 27th in the pro-Russian region of Transnistria (Moldova) are undoubtedly the continuation of the planning to destabilise Russia entrusted to the RAND Corporation. Coincidentally, a few days earlier, Brussels had warned of alleged Russian False Flag attacks and this is just what happened? Everything seems to have been staged to make its impact credible. Clearly a psychological warfare tactic. But don't be fooled, this has been going on for a long time and they are trying to throw Moscow off balance.

The means to achieve this seem to have no limits and this was seen in Kazakhstan at the beginning of the year with those demonstrations behind which cells of foreign agitators were hiding. If Russia had not intervened they would have been able to overpower the government.

What we see in Ukraine is part of that. It highlights the actions of cells of terrorists (Ukrainian Azov, C14 and foreign mercenaries) trained by advisors from intelligence agencies such as Britain's MI6 who are seeking to bring war to Russian soil, something that will undoubtedly have serious and grave consequences for the governments involved.

If you thought that terrorists are a spontaneous creation (as explained by politicians or media charlatans), pay attention to what is happening in Ukraine today.

Since the start of the Russian Special Operation, the FSB secret service has managed to dismantle several mercenary cells that were about to carry out attacks against civilian and government targets in the Russian Federation. On 20 April, an FSB raid in the Sverdlovsk region of central Russia netted and arrested five “ISIS” members from Central Asia. Clearly they did not arrive by chance, nor were they operating for and on behalf of the organization, but their presence is part of the plans NATO is trying to implement against Russia's stability.

Who finances and arms such organisations? How much does it cost to finance an army of mercenary cells? Also “someone” provides them by sending them to them by prearranged routes. In Ukraine, the US and its partners have been infiltrating arms through various rail routes from Romania and Poland, which have been cut off by Russian bombing for days now.  The latest blow to these routes has been the blowing up of the railway bridge over the Dniester river connecting the Odessa region with Romania, complicating this traffic.

The attack and destruction of the ARTIOM missile factory in Kiev was also a clear message.

But the infiltration of British (ex-SAS) and American-led mercenary and terrorist cells destined to operate within Russia's borders cannot be seen as anything other than what it is, a covert aggression under the guise of asymmetric warfare. The precedents were seen in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Libya and are sufficiently grim to explain how dangerous this is.

This gives it a much more worrying and dangerous context for peace. Moscow warns that the same people who supported the "jihadists" in Syria are trying to reprise the strategy of chaos as they did in the Near East using terror as a central tactic in achieving their goals.  What happened in the Bucha district is very reminiscent of the countless executions in Iraq during the Anglo-American occupation, but much more reminiscent of the 2013 staging in Al Ghouta, Syria and that means that the strategy to try to win the war is to invent bloody scenarios to show Russia as a perpetrator of war crimes.

We know that the Anglo-Saxon West plays dirty but now it has been exposed and exposed in this. Will it retrace its steps and stop adding fuel to the fire in Ukraine or will it redouble its bets by boosting terrorism? The Russian government, through Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, has made it clear that if its partners continue with this “the war may end up being wider than expected”. 

Meanwhile on the plain, skirmishes and battles in the eastern countryside of the Donbass continue unabated. The neo-Nazi groupings armed by Washington and London are not so sure of taking the initiative as they do not have as many human shields to protect themselves as they had in Kiev, Kherson or Mariupol. Even the portable weapons (Stinger, TOW, Javelin) delivered to them by NATO and retired generals do not motivate them to go. It is even known that someone is reselling these toys. Why aren't these weapons arriving to the front if in Kiev the deposits of the donations of the “friends” of the USA, UK and Europe are overflowing, business of Zelensky and his mafia?
