Russia’s war in Ukraine jolts Iran, Syria and Middle East security  

By Eric R. Mandel, THE HILL      – 04/25/22

Russia’s war in Ukraine has serious repercussions for the Middle East — affecting, in particular, Iranian entrenchment in Syria and regional security for Israel and the United States.

In 2015, Iran’s Qassem Soleimani, then general of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, flew to Moscow to meet with Kremlin officials just weeks after the conclusion of the original Iran nuclear agreement, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The goal was to change the course of Syria’s civil war, which looked bleak for their ally, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. The meeting “forged a new Iranian-Russian alliance in support of Assad,” turning the course of the war in their favor. The successful outcome allowed Iran to move with confidence toward its primary objective: creating a vassal state in Syria, as it had in Lebanon with Hezbollah.

Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, the epicenter of violence  

by Steve Kramer 

There’s been a lot of mayhem lately at the Temple Mount (the summit of Mount Moriah) in Jerusalem, which is a magnet for religious Jews, especially during Passover. Because this year Passover, Easter, and the Muslim holiday of Ramadan coincided, more violence than usual has resulted. The current custodianship over the Muslim holy sites in Jerusalem’s Old City is unsatisfactory. A change may be required so that the Temple Mount is peaceful, as a holy place should be.

Biden Unilaterally Surrenders to Russia and China in Satellite Wars  

Our enemies will have a clear field for destroying our satellites.

By Daniel Greenfield, FPM   



Kamala Harris arrived at Vandenberg Space Force Base where Discoverer-1, the first satellite to enter a polar orbit and America’s bold response to Russia’s Sputnik, was launched to announce that we would be unilaterally surrendering to Russia and China in the growing satellite wars.

Last November, Russia had conducted a DA-ASAT or direct-ascent anti-satellite test which demonstrated its ability to take out satellites. The Russians had used their A-235 anti-ballistic missile system to destroy their own Kosmos 1408 satellite. The message was clear: Moscow had the ability to clear out enemy satellites in the event of any conflict. Including ours.

Our Spanish Civil War?  

Deep and brutal strife in 1930s Spain was a prelude to the barbarity of World War II. Now with the war in Ukraine, we’re reminded that the veneer of civilization is very thin.

By 

From 1936 to 1939, the civil war in Spain became a European laboratory of new tactics, strategies, logistics, wartime morality, and weapons. Right-wing nationalists under General Francisco Franco finally defeated loyal supporters of an evolutionary socialist republic—but only after much of the Western world had variously weighed in.

The cost to the Spanish people of such brutal and vicious strife was horrific. Over 500,000 Spaniards would die in a little over two-and-a-half years. The country was left in shambles.

The collapse of Russia will be the beginning of the end of the West  

By Alex Maistrovoy, AMERICAN THINKER

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was largely predictable but it also brought some surprises. It was quite expected that the current US administration would try to draw Russia into the “Ukrainian swamp” in order to weaken and isolate it as much as possible. It was expected that the inexperienced and naive Ukrainian leader would trust the promises of the Biden team and let them to drag his country into a devastating gamble.

Diaspora Minister Nachman Shai said Saturday that the delicate status quo on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount was deteriorating as more Jews accessed the holy site, and warned that there will be harsh consequences.

“There are a lot more Jews who are going up to the Temple Mount. There are some that stop on the way and pray, which was forbidden,” Shai told the Kan public broadcaster.

Power and Powerlessness: Globalism’s War on Children  

by Linda Goudsmit  4.24.2022

Globalism is a replacement ideology that seeks to replace the current Westphalian system of independent sovereign nations with one world planetary governance. One world government, often referred to as the Great Reset and the New World Order, is a totalitarian managerial state that breaches every conceivable boundary. The singularity imagined by globalist technocrats fuses humanity into one nation, one race, one language, one culture, one religion, one digital currency, one educational curriculum, and one gender.

Russia is about to win the war – So why is Biden still sending weapons to Ukraine?  

by David Mark, ISRAEL UNWIRED          

History has a way of shifting when we least expect it. Empires crash and fall, not because of some sort of external enemy, but rather from squandering their capital on misadventures without realizing just how powerful their enemies truly are. If Afghanistan was a reminder of how weak the US position is around the world, Ukraine appears to be the moment the world realized just how naked the emperor truly is.

The Case for Banning Burqas and Niqabs  

By Daniel Pipes  April 23, 2022

A short new book argues for permitting women to wear tent-like full-body coverings (sometimes but erroneously called veils) in public places. Raphael Cohen-Almagor, a self-described “poet, human rights and peace activist,” as well as a professor at the University of Hull, offers sundry reasons for this surprise conclusion, including:

The ban on the burqa and the niqab is wrong in principle, is counter-productive and illiberal. It fails to respect freedom of religion which is a basic human right. It undermines the agency of women it claims to emancipate. … and it offends the dignity of women who voluntarily opt to wear this garment for religious reasons. … It undermines the agency of women it claims to emancipate. …The ban that was designed to liberate women actually increases their isolation.

Under Attack By Spectre–This Is No Drill  

By  –April 24, 2022

Anyone who is familiar with the James Bond franchise knows that Spectre is an international crime organization.  Like Spectre, the World Economic Forum (WEF) operates in the shadows, but working under the pretense that they are an organization devoted to preserving peace and saving the planet. 

They are, in reality, a criminal cartel whose only interest is world conquest by enslavement and mass murder.

Their scheme has many names…The New World Order (NWO), Agenda 21, Agenda 2030, The Great Reset.
