T. Belman. Black comes out in support of NATO giving Zelensky the support he needs to achieve “an acceptable result”. He does not define what he considers “acceptable”. Obviously the more support we give the more acceptable the result will be assuming it acts as a deterrent. . My problem is, that such added support may result in escalation rather than de-escalation. How much escalation, with its concomitant death and destruction, is he prepared for. Or is he arguing to win at all costs.;

Secondly, he assumes that this is a conflict between the democratic west and the totalitarian Russia. Many have argued that it is really a struggle between the New World Order and what Dr Turley calls a civilization state. Others call it the Nation State or nationalism.  The NWO doesn’t have a lock on democracy and the rule of law. Just look at what America has become under its direction. Not only has it subverted the rule of law and the constitution but it has overturned the Judeo Christian morality on which it was founded. Many would argue that the NWO is a danger to the kind of life we led and the kind of life we want to live.

All of modern history could be ransacked in vain to find a more ludicrously implausible and self-defeating policy than the Biden administration’s deliberate suppression of American oil and gas production, which has scorched the world oil price upwards and financed the barbarous Russian invasion of Ukraine that the United States rightly condemns and vigorously opposes.

NATO IS DIVIDED

By Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger, “Second Thought: a US-Israel Initiative”

Irrespective of the final outcome of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it should serve as a wake-up call for Israeli and Western policy-makers and molders of public opinion.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has exposed the flawed nature of certain assumptions, which have impacted the worldview of the Western establishment – but not the worldview of most of the world – while attempting to induce/coerce Israel into adopting these assumptions.

For example:

Just watch the first 7 minutes.
Zelensky
1. Ukraine will forgo membership in NATO
2. Willing to compromise on two eastern provinces which declared independence.

Putin also wants Crimea to be recognized as part of Russia. Putin will demand that NATO guarantee any deal they strike and lift all sanctions.

T. Belman. Given the fact that 100,000 eligible refugees are expected, I see no need morally or otherwise, to also admit 25000 non-eligible Ukrainians. We have enough on our plate with the “Jewish” refugees.

Minister Shaked announces 20,000 Ukrainians not covered by Law of Return already in Israel to be allowed to stay, 5,000 more allowed to come

Israel National News 

Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked announced Tuesday evening that Israel is prepared to temporarily host 25,000 Ukrainian citizens who are not covered by the Law of Return in light of the humanitarian crisis.

“The sights of the war in Ukraine and the suffering of its citizens shock the soul and do not allow us to remain indifferent. These difficult events also have a direct impact on the State of Israel, which is currently preparing to absorb, according to estimates, about 100,000 Jews and those entitled to the Law of Return and their family members fleeing the battle zones,” Shaked said.

Are you ready for the global cabal’s ‘Plan B’?

With Covid now a fading memory, phase two of the Great Reset will surely ‘get your attention’

By Leo Hohmann

The U.S. administration of Joe Biden is now fully engaged in stoking World War III, but before any Americans can be sent to die in the Ukraine, we must feel more economic pain here at home.

If you haven’t already begun to feel it, you will soon. Gasoline has now reached an all-time record high with a national average approaching $4.50 per gallon. Expect it to reach $5 within a week, and we all know how that will affect the price of everything else, from food to hard goods to lumber, building supplies and automobiles.

Everything we read is that evil Putin is on the ropes and is running out of options. It will only get worse for him.

But the truth is, that Biden is desperate and on the ropes. He can’t win this war.

All talk is about escalation rather than capitulation. Why not end this fiasco by agreeing to the neutrality of Ukraine.

Those who know me know that I don’t watch many long videos or news shows because there are only so many hours in a day – and I can cover more ground, and learn more, by reading multiple sources. And I am pretty much deaf – so there’s that!

It also came out yesterday that Biden gave the media (FOX, Newsmax, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS and more) over ONE BILLION to promote vaccines and mandates. NOT KIDDING. Yes, our Government gave the fake news our tax dollars to help Big Pharma. So, I’m guessing that Biden is also giving the fake news our money to push war in Ukraine & demonize Putin. Now it all makes sense.

Biden doesn’t want to stop the invasion. He wants to use it.

By Daniel Greenfield, FPM     Mar 8/22 

The Biden administration is doing everything possible to exploit the Ukraine crisis without doing anything to actually stop it. Its policies are a laundry list of leftist agendas that cynically betray the people fighting and dying on the ground without doing anything to actually halt the invasion.

An unpopular administration has been gifted a crisis by Putin and is seeing to it that it doesn’t go to waste. Biden had been unable to evade the blame for rising gas and food prices, but going forward the skyrocketing price of gas and food, in particular anything with wheat, will be blamed on the Russian invasion. While the invasion will certainly impact energy and food prices, the fundamental force driving the price hikes is still inflation caused by government spending.

Netanyahu on Monday lambasted the government for what he called its “silence” vis-à-vis the emerging nuclear deal with Iran,

By  Yehuda Shlezinger, ISRAEL HAYOM     03-08-2022

Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday lambasted the government for what he called its “silence” vis-à-vis the emerging nuclear deal with Iran, saying their actions are “engendering Israel’s future.”

Speaking during a Likud faction meeting, Netanyahu asserted that “the Bennett-Gantz-Lapid government shows only weakness, weakness, and more weakness. They have capitulated to the US administration when agreeing to a policy of zero surprises – meaning that Israel will not act against the Iranian nuclear program without first coordinating it with the Americans, who will undoubtedly oppose such action and may even jeopardize things by leaking them.”

• [A]t least two men from Iran’s Quds Force… are planning to assassinate former US National Security Advisor John R. Bolton…. However, Biden administration officials do not want to indict the Iranian assassins, for fear of disrupting the “progress” in Vienna, Austria, of a globally catastrophic “nuclear deal,” during which the interests of the United States are being negotiated by – Russia!
• Similar assassination plots, according to the report, also exist against former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and other officials serving the United States now or who have served.

Xi Jinping (China), Vladimir Putin (Russia), Jair Bolsonaro (Brazil), Narendra Modi (India) and Cyril Ramaphosa (South Africa), the BRICS group.

The BRICS alliance is a strategic geopolitical partnership between Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.  The nature of the alliance is based on trade and big picture economics.

Readers familiar with our discussions of trade and international finance, will remember the importance we previously discussed with BRICS after the 2016 election and President Trump representing economic nationalism for the first time in several generations.  In this outline, we are going to share the bigger picture of why BRICS should now be back on the center stage of American focus.

Legal proceedings are being carried out with scant regard for the law. In some cases, the law is blatantly disregarded; in others, factual evidence is ignored; in yet others, infractions are invented to fabricate charges. All cases have been approved by the courts.

I’ve been coming back here since 2019. Every time it’s a little more different, more modern, more advanced, 2030 gets closer, and it gets a little bit more like Dubai, even a little bit more like America. Do you think Saudi Arabia will become less Saudi and more like the rest of the world?

Concentration camps. Death is looming. Separation of lovers. Naked bodies in queue for showers of gas poison. Only way out of the despair on this march to imminent death in the crematorium is to surrender to the thoughts of a loved one.

…not exactly the imagery I concocted in my head when I listened for the last 30+ years to the prolific love hymn by Leonard Cohen. But, boy oh boy, was I wrong…!

I have read multiple western analysts discuss the Russia/Ukraine situation. For me, the Russia/Ukraine debacle is all political theater designed to deflect public attention away from Biden’s demented incompetence and the pandemic, and refocus public attention on the fearsome specter of war. I will explain.

The Russia/Ukraine events are staged political theater with lethal consequences – just like Jan 6th and the Covid pandemic were constructions of the managerial state with devastating lethal consequences. Death is very persuasive. Cinema verité is required to achieve globalism’s objectives.

T. Belman. Why isn’t Russia stalling this deal until the Ukraine is settled? Why would Russia want to have Iran oil replace Russian oil. Doesn’t make sense. Plus the availability of Iranian oil would reduce the price of oil and Russia’s revenue as a result.

Eurasia’s Henry Rome said “Russia may intend to use Iran as a route to bypass Western sanctions. A written guarantee allowing Russia to do so is probably well beyond the realm of what Washington can offer in the midst of a full-scale war in Ukraine.” That suggests that Russia is negotiating a sweet-heart deal for Iran in exchange of Iran cooperating with Russia to avoid sanctions.

Recently, I read that the purpose of the new deal is to slow Iran’s march to the bomb. Whatever happened to the claim that the deal is to prevent Iran from getting the bomb.

Moscow makes last-minute demands as Tehran promises to boost oil production and market shuns Russian crude.

BY STEPHANIE LIECHTENSTEIN, POLITICO    Mar 5/22

VIENNA — Moscow is throwing up last-minute demands that could scupper an international nuclear deal with Iran — and the timing is unlikely to be coincidental as the Kremlin frets about the growing threat to its critical oil revenue after its invasion of Ukraine.

Hopes had been high that international negotiators from the permanent five members of the U.N. Security Council, Germany and the EU would be able to secure a deal with Tehran on Saturday to put strict limits on Iran’s atomic work in exchange for sanctions relief for the Islamic Republic.
