The Palestinians Had NO OTHER OPTIONS Norman Finkelstein

Reports describing the violence during the recent assault by Hamas fighters on Israel have been nothing short of shocking. Also shocking, however, has been the treatment of Palestinians for more than half a century by Israeli occupiers. Guest host Craig Jardula and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to professor and author Norman Finkelstein about the failure of Palestinian efforts at nonviolent protest and the nearly non-existent options available to Gazans under blockade. Plus a segment on the Israeli government's plans to deprive Gaza's 1 million children of basic essentials like food, water and medicine.

Amid the latest escalation of the Palestine-Israel conflict, the IDF has intensified both its heavy air bombardment of Gaza, and its ground assault on the enclave, including carrying out strikes on civilian infrastructure in densely populated areas that the Israeli military claims is being used by Hamas militants. If the Israeli military hope to defeat Hamas in Gaza, they need to get all the way down to the underground tunnels, veteran former US Marine Corps intelligence officer, and UN weapons inspector, Scott Ritter tells Sputnik. But Israel doesn't want to do that, because “they want war on the cheap,” the geopolitical observer emphasized. “They're fighting ...

Warning over Italy's Campi Flegrei comes after experts said Long Valley Caldera in California could erupt The Italian government is planning for a possible evacuation of more than 300,000 people due to a nearby dormant super volcano showing signs of an eruption - one month after American researchers found one rumbling in the US. Campo Flegrei, west of Naples, has experienced more than 2,500 earthquakes in the past three months, with the largest hitting a 4.0 magnitude, which is a similar scenario that led to its 1583 eruption. Scientists have predicted that if this sleeping giant blows, it could create a plum large enough to plunge Earth into a global winter for years. The warning ...

Volodymyr Zelensky Is in a Sea of Troubles
Post Date: 2023-11-04 10:07:58 by Ada
2 Comments
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is facing two troubles on the foreign front that have received a lot of media attention. The first is that his country is actually receiving much less media attention. For the past month, international attention has been drawn away from his war to another. The second is that he is confronting growing resistance in the U.S. House of Representatives. President Joe Biden’s plan to tie aid to Ukraine and aid to Israel together is both a tactical maneuver to ensure continued congressional support for Ukraine and an admission that that support can no longer be taken for granted. But the fact is that Zelensky is facing a sea of troubles, not only ...

Hassan Nasrallah Speaks. We Should Listen.

John Mearshimer said that the speeches of Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, are the most informative of any politician in the West. Mr Nasrallah spoke yesterday. He also left a trail of breadcrumbs hinting at preparations for a wider conflict which could lead to WW III. (I think not to WW III but to economic oblivion for the US, NATO countries and Japan.) He says he no longer fears America. He probably has been watching videos of NATO weapons in action in the Ukraine. What was not said is that Hamas was financed by the US and Israel as an alternative to the Palestinian Authority which would gladly accept a two state solution with the withdrawal of Israel from East Jerusalem, the ...

Two military facilities occupied by US forces in Iraq’s semi-autonomous Kurdistan region and Syria’s northeastern province of Hasakah have come under separate attacks by explosive-laden drones, the latest in a series of strikes on American forces in the two neighboring countries. The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, an umbrella group of anti-terror fighters, in a statement published on its Telegram channel claimed responsibility for the early Friday morning attack on US forces based near the Erbil International Airport. It noted that the base was targeted by two drones, linking the assault to the US support for Israel's bloody military campaign against Palestinians in the Gaza ...

Hezbollah Chief: US "Directly Responsible" For Gaza Atrocities, Will Soon Pay "Heavy Price"

Summary recap: Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah's speech went for just under one-and-a-half hours, and while full of threats and ultra-provocative heated words aimed at Israel and the United States, this was not a declaration of war speech. But he emphasized that Hezbollah's full entry into war with Israel will be determined based on developing events in Gaza, and whether Israel halts its attacks on the Palestinian people. Shelling on the Israel-Lebanese border was reportedly ongoing through and by the end of the speech in Beirut (Nasrallah addressed his top officers via remote feed from a secure location). Some highlights from Nasrallah's speech... All ...

Parliament of Algeria Votes War Powers to President Against Israel

The Parliament of Algeria has just voted to authorize Algerian President Tebbun to go to war against Israel. While one may chuckle at the notion, it is necessary to point out that Algeria can basically SHUT DOWN entry/Exit between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. So all that naval firepower that is presently in the eastern Med . . . can be sunk as they try to go home. Any other warships attempting to enter the MEditerranean from the Atlantic, can similarly be sunk. This is serious.

Why Have All Chinese Banks Disappeared From The LBMA Gold Price Auction
Post Date: 2023-11-03 06:52:21 by Horse
0 Comments
Submitted by Ronan Manly, BullionStar.com There has been an unprecedented departure of all the Chinese banks from the LBMA Gold Price auctions. These departures have gone uncommented by the LBMA, the FCA, the mainstream media, the auction administrator ICE Benchmark Administration, and by the Chinese banks themselves. The exit of the Chinese banks raises questions as to what this has done to the auction liquidity and price discovery as the auctions are not reflecting supply and demand of gold from China – the world’s largest gold miner, gold importer and gold consumer. When the twice daily LBMA Gold Price auction was launched on 20 March 2015 to replace the infamous and ...

Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has warned Israel and the United States that the continuation of the war against the besieged Gaza Strip could result in “another surprise” by the resistance forces. “In my yesterday meeting, political officials of Hamas noted that in case the war is not stopped, the region would be closer to the level of taking a bigger decision,” he told a joint press conference with his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan. Amir-Abdollahian met Fidan a day after Iran’s top diplomat sat down for talks with Hamas leaders in Qatar. “If the war is not stopped, [the responsibility] for the expansion of the war directly lies ...

"A Disaster Guaranteed To Happen" - Japan's Slow-Motion Train Wreck

Via SchiffGold.com, Japan is in the midst of a slow-motion train wreck. The country has a massive national debt and it is starting to feel the pressure of rising interest rates. In his podcast, Peter Schiff talked about the situation in Japan and pointed out some disturbing parallels to what’s happening in the US. The Japanese yen against the dollar has fallen to the lowest level in more than 20 years. The yen is tanking because of the ongoing money creation program by the Japanese central bank. It is still running quantitative easing in order to support its bond market. The national debt in Japan is around $9 trillion. That is well over 200% of the country’s GDP. Interest ...
