As Tom Lehrer wrote, it's 'So long Mom, I'm off to drop The Bomb'

All the Western media, CNN, MSNBC, BBC, France24, DW, etc., etc., etc. say Israel are just defending themselves in the Ghaza, so ethnic cleansing is their indisputable right under International Law, and Russia are losing badly in the Ukraine, with losses of three armies, more than 1 million men, and a big chunk of Western Russia, and the Ukraine should take Moscow any day now.

So a few $trillion more and we'll finish the job. But the Ukraine need guns and bullets, and without those $trillions, all that we've invested so far will be a big waste and Russia will win.

The US were sure they were winning in Korea, but then the PRC sent in an army with more men than the US forces had bullets. The PRC only wanted to protect the PRC, so they let the US keep South Korea, but North Korea was off limits for the US military.

Then came Vietnam, where the Vietnamese had a lot of help from the USSR and shot down a lot of US planes and took the pilots as POWs.

And now there is Syria, where an Arab friend says that Syria is lost, all are surrendering to the Free Syrian Army, Assad fled to Tehran, and no one has anything that can stop that Free Syrian Army. Russia and Iran have pulled out completely, since they know they are no match for the Free Syrian Army which will have all of Syria in less than 48 hours.

Reading a few more sources, there are the anti-Assad forces under Türkiye, the US supported anti-Assad Kurds, Hayʼat Tahrir al-Sham (formerly al-Qaeda + Daesh), and some Israeli supported anti-Assad forces, and these anti-Assad forces include Syrian Arab Sunnis, foreign Sunnis from places like the PRC, and the -stans, and the Syrian Kurds.

One obvious point that my friend seems to have missed is that a) Russia are very attached to their Mediterranean naval port in Syria and have no intention of giving it up; b) in spite of the Western media, Russian military production far exceeds that of all of NATO, which is incredibly corrupt, with NATO defence companies paying for sales, with weapons contracts that pay $billions, most of which goes as sales commissions and management bonuses, with very little wasted on actual weapons production. Making sales brings in the big bucks, not making weapons.

Russia have a lot invested in the Ukraine, and it's taking time to bring the Russian forces to bear. They were slow 15 years ago, but eventually salvaged the Assad regime that gave them those Russian naval bases that, if Assad is overthrown, will go to NATO.

So the US is pushing hard in the Ukraine, Georgia, Syria, and Romania, and are shooting ATACMS into Russia, killing Russians, and it's not clear how much longer Russia will put up with this before doing something to stop the attacks on Russia by NATO.

The US/UK/EU say, 'If Russia get annoyed, they'll totally destroy Kiev, but we can live without Kiev. Russia wouldn't dare do anything to any NATO nation since they are terrified of Article 5 which would mean the certain end of Russia.'

Of course, the certain end of Russia was clearly seen by Napoleon, and we all remember his great victory over Russia in 1812. And the certain end of the USSR was seen by the Wehrmacht who had a great victory over Russia in 1944. And if Napoleon and the Wehrmacht could do it, surely it will be an easy victory for the US of A.

And if Russia tries to destroy anything outside the Ukraine, the US will up the ante, and it'll be, 'So long Mom, I'm off to drop the bomb,' as Lehrer wrote back in the '60s.

 

 

 

President-elect Trump

In spite of the US news reporting that St Kamala was ahead and almost certain to win, and in spite of the Democrats planning to harvest votes and have the official State Election Committees (at least in the 9 swing states) say that St Kamala won, somehow, no one is quite sure how, Trump won the election and is now President-elect.

In 2016, Trump had no idea what the role of the elected president is (the role is to read the Teleprompter: the people in charge have decided what they're going to do, and the elected 'president' must give their orders as if those are his own orders, and make it sound like that's the only thing the US can do so all is for the best in America, the best of all possible nations).

When Trump ordered all the US troops out of Syria, none left. Now Trump thinks the US president, as Commander in Chief, can order any general who doesn't follow orders removed from his position pending Court Martial. We might see, or Trump might have learned that his job is just to read the Teleprompter.

Trump said, if he'd been president, Russia would never have invaded the Ukraine. There are two ways to take this.

First, in December, 2021, Putin wrote St Biden that Russia would never allow the Ukraine to join NATO. The official US response (no idea who really wrote it) was, 'Russia have no say in the matter. The Ukraine will join NATO and host the largest NATO military base and a huge number of nukes that can take out the entire Russian dead-hand nuclear switch before Russia could possibly respond.'

A few days after receiving this letter in 2022, Putin ordered the 'invasion'. What else could he possibly have done? What leader of a major power could respond to such a letter in any other way?

Had Trump received Putin's letter and written back, 'Under no circumstances will NATO allow the Ukraine to join,' there would have been no 'invasion'.

But the Trump team are now trying to say, 'Putin knew President Biden was weak and could not put up an effective defence of the Ukraine, so he invaded. Putin also knew that Trump was too strong, that any attempt to invade with Trump as president would result in the absolutely certain destruction of Russia, so Putin would never have dared to invade had Trump been president in 2021 and 2022.'

One of Trump's nominees who will 'negotiate' with the Ukraine and Russia said that he will demand an immediate ceasefire by both sides, and will offer to Russia that the Ukraine will not join NATO for 10 years, but Russia must withdraw from the Ukraine. If Russia refuse, NATO will send $trillions in armaments to the Ukraine, enough to make everything already sent seem insignificant, so Russia, facing a strong president, will immediately back down.

Or, in simpler words, Trump's appointees have absolutely no idea what is happening in the Ukraine, no idea what the US should do, and a firm conviction that the US must make sure that the US Defence-Industrial-Congressional-Intelligence-Media Complex executives continue to get $trillions in profits from the US taxpayers and printing presses, and what could possibly go wrong?

I remember the Cuban Missile Crisis. We lived in a small village, and all our relatives from cities they expected would be destroyed came to stay in the homes of my father and uncle. I had to sleep on the floor, because they got my bed. Everyone was sure we were close to WWIII and nuclear destruction, but it was all fake.

First, the US put nukes in Turkey. The USSR was furious, and said, 'If you don't remove those missiles from Turkey, we'll put nukes in Cuba.' President Kennedy called Khrushchev and said, 'I have to run for re-election and  you don't, so if you'll say the USSR backed down, the US will do everything the USSR wants.' So the Soviet Fleet turned around and retreated back to the USSR, and the Soviets said they removed all the nukes from Cuba as ordered by the US.

Then the US, with Soviet inspectors watching, secretly removed all the nukes from Turkey, but this was classified Top Secret for 20 years. (To this day, no US nukes are in Turkey, now all those nukes are in Türkiye.)

Today, this ain't no Cuban Missile Crisis. President Biden is incapable of making a coherent call to Putin to make an offer. 

And Trump's appointments are a very mixed bag with regard to the Ukraine. Some say we must keep sending even more money to the Ukraine until Russia are completely destroyed and no longer a threat to US hegemony. Other say we must stop sending all that money to the Ukraine and put it to better uses, but not much agreement on what those 'better uses' might be.

Some say that money should help Americans live better lives, while others say we must use the money being squandered in the Ukraine against a weak Russia and use it to a) help Israel ethnically cleanse all Arabs from Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria, and b) destroy Iran and the PRC.

***

It is not clear if WWIII will be postponed until after 20 January 2025, Inauguration Day (for that matter, it's not clear who will be named as president on that day), or if Biden will try to get it over with before he leaves office (in which case, he'll be leaving an office that probably no longer exists).

Since Biden (i.e., the people actually running things while pretending it's Biden) seem to want to go out with a big bang, we're in for six or so exciting weeks.

And, if there is still a world on 21 January 2025, we'll have to see what Trump and his appointees do about WWIII.

Iran is trying to kill Trump???

For reasons I cannot imagine, after three attempts to assassinate Former President Trump, he announced that it was Iran trying to kill him. Most of the establishment media (excluding Fox and the New York Post) say that Trump would be, by far, the worst president ever if re-elected, and the poll of presidential historians favoured by Wikipedia already has him rated worst president based on his first term when he had no idea how things worked, and the media reiterate that his second term promises complete disaster for the US and the world.

But Vice-president Harris is already backing Israel, who say Iran must be taken out, so it looks like, no matter who wins the election, war between the US and Iran is inevitable. How this war will probably go does not seem at all clear to any of the mainstream media I watch or read.

In 1988, the USS Vincennes shot down Iran Air Flight 655, a plane filled with 290 suicidal jihadis, or so the sailors on the USS Vincennes said, a plane trying to crash into the USS Vincennes and kill everyone on board, so they had no choice but to shoot the plane down. Photographs show that the plane must have been flying backward at the USS Vincennes, since the tail of the airplane is pointing at the ship, not the nose.

Back in 1988, there were still many independent news media in the US, and some of them said the USS Vincennes shot down an Iranian airliner that was flying away from the ship, and posed to threat of any kind to the ship. Fortunately, all the US media are now owned by four or five corporations who let the CIA write, or at least proof, everything they print, so all tell whatever story the US government wants told.

And all say Iran are a very weak nation, all their illegal attacks on Israel were war crimes that were completely stopped by Israel's air defences, with help from the US and US allies. One can see a video showing missiles hitting Israel, but Russia joke that the US and Israel say those were the Israeli missiles rising to hit the incoming Iranian missiles, but the film is run backward by Iran to make it look like it is Iranian missiles actually landing on Israeli targets. In any case, Israel put up a cover of smoke so no one could photograph the area where those Iranian missiles might have landed, and Israel reiterate that not one Iranian missile hit Israel. So nothing to worry about, Israel can destroy Tehran and Qom and Iran can do nothing about it.

Going back to 1988, Iran had nothing they could use, nothing they could shoot at the USS Vincennes. They have been working on that problem for the past 36 years. Iran now have a large number of anti-ship missiles ready to deploy should a US fleet approach Iran, a fact that seems to have escaped the CIA agents who are supposed to be spying on Iran, I guess they're too busy proofing all the US news media to make sure every story is the official US government version. The US fleet will have one or more aircraft carriers from which the US plan that planes will bomb Iran. Not clear where those US planes will land after dropping their bombs. Not clear if there will be any US planes to actually drop any bombs.

But both Trump and Harris are determined to destroy Iran to protect Israel, if Israel can't do it alone, as Israel has promised that they can. Someone leaked US classified documents with the US assessment of Israeli preparations for a major strike against Iran, mentioning Israeli attack planes and refuelling planes that would carry missiles within range of Iranian targets (not clear if the Israeli planes would actually fly over Iran: they never fly directly over Syria, but use short-range missiles from outside the Syrian border: this is in response to Russia providing Syria with antiaircraft batteries that can strike any planes flying over Syrian territory).

Again, Israel and the US seem unaware of Iranian defences, or at least the media report that Iran have no effective offence nor defence against Israel with or without the US military providing support (the US will provide Israel with whatever military hardware they request, and the US Air Force and other services did help Israel shoot down hundreds of Iranian drones, none of which did Iran intend to actually reach Israel, so the US might send US planes to help the Israeli planes attacking Iran).

The US/UK/EU media all keep saying that Russia is very close to complete defeat in the Ukraine, the sanctions completely collapsed the Russia economy so Russia only has, in addition to Soviet weapons from WWII and Czarist weapons from WWI, all taken from the museums where they were housed, weapons and ammunition from the DPRK and Iran, but these are all very, very primitive in comparison to the ultra-advanced NATO weapons with which the Ukrainian military have been provided, so we've seen the best weapons Iran can produce, and they are not up to much.

Only the reporters actually in the Ukraine, reporters like Eva Bartlett and Vanessa Beeley, report that Russia are winning, but such stories are never allowed in any US/UK/EU media. And Tucker Carlson was fired for reading a Top Secret paper released by (now gaoled) Airman Teixeira that said Russian troop losses were only 10% to 20% as many as Ukrainian losses, when the official US/UK/EU figures are more than one million Russians soldiers have been killed and only 31,500 Ukrainian soldiers.

And I suspect the official US assessment of Iranian offensive and defensive capabilities that appear in the US/UK/EU media are about as accurate as the official US/UK/EU media reports on the battle in the Ukraine.

Of course, it is said that someone sent a ship with 100 tonnes of yellowcake, the name for uranium oxide, to Israel, and 60 tonnes of yellowcake are enough to generate a chain reaction which will produce enough plutonium for many bombs, so many figure Israel must have more than 100 nuclear bombs (and might have done one test in 1979 somewhere near the southern tip of Africa, but that evidence of a nuclear test is now officially a 'device malfunction').

Iran has relatively little uranium under Iranian soil, and no access to uranium from any other source, so there is no way Iran can have a bomb, but they've been less than one month away from a nuke for the past 30 years, according to Netanyahu, who has been reiterating that a US regime-change invasion of Iran is essential and urgently needed.

And it looks like neither Harris nor Trump would do anything to stop Israel from nuking Iran, so not much difference for the Palestinians, Lebanese, Syrians, or Iranians who gets elected week after next.

What is less clear is what will happen in the Ukraine, where Harris has promised complete victory and Trump refuses to say what he will do. When president, Trump read on the official US Presidential TelePrompter, 'I order the US military into Syria to bring peace, freedom, and democracy,' and Trump said, 'I order all US troops out of Syria.' Twice. The third time, he said, 'Now I understand US troops will be going into Syria to steal all the oil, and then we'll sell that oil, so this won't cost the US 1¢, it will make the US money, and I fully support this move.'

Net: the people who run the US wanted Trump to order the troops into Syria to bring peace, freedom, and democracy, but they couldn't get him to do that, and now rate Trump as worst person ever to play the part of US president and speak the lines he or she is given with the right timbre.

But, in his second term, Trump might order generals who fail to follow his orders, e.g., 'All US troops must leave Europe!' fired. Not clear that a single general would leave, or the US military would do anything any differently than their original plans, but it was bad enough that Trump ordered all US troops out of Syria. Twice! We can't have that happen again. So the US government is doing everything it can to make sure the next president is Harris, not Trump, since we know she'll read the official Presidential TelePrompter and never ad lib.

And she has promised the total defeat of Russia, and the restoration of 1991 Ukraine. So what could possibly go wrong???

Iran’s Nuke?

Iran was offered the JCPOA by Obama, but it was cancelled by Trump. The dimmycrats figure Trump was stupid and evil, but they figure that with or without his cancelling the JCPOA.

Clinton ordered a strict blockade on Iraq. No food, no medicine, no vaccines or antibiotics, so childhood diseases that could have easily been treated proved fatal, and malnutrition plus treatable medical problems killed at least 500,000 Iraqi children, a number the US said was well worth it. Clinton promised an end to the blockade if Iraq allowed UN inspectors to verify that Iraq had no WMD.

 Just as soon as those UN inspectors verified no WMDs in Iraq, the Bush, Jr. government announced that they had found anthrax and other biological WMD, and ordered an invasion, execution of all top Iraq government officials, and killed several million more Iraqis than the blockade had already killed.

Then Bush, Jr ordered a strict blockade on Libya and made the same offer, and Qaddafi accepted. As soon as the UN inspectors verified no WMDs, Obama announced that he’d found WMD in Libya and ordered the US military to kill Qaddafi, and lots of other Libyans, and the US military were glad to comply. Then Obama tightened the blockade on Iran (there since 1979) and offered the JCPOA. Plan A, of course, was for Hillary to find WMD and order the overthrow of the Ayatollah. Only Trump got elected and cancelled the JCPOA, and, as a result, we still have the Iranian Ayatollah.

Meanwhile, Clinton, Bush, Jr, and Obama blockaded the DPRK and made the same offer. Kim Jong Il had a huge explosion set off in a mine and said he’d set off a nuke, but seismic evidence was ambiguous. His son, Kim Jong Un set off an explosion in a mine that was unambiguously a nuke. Nothing has happened to the DPRK.

 So why doesn’t Iran have a nuke?

The US executed two Jews for giving away the big secret to a nuke, a secret known to just about every physicist: one needs a pile of about 60 tonnes of uranium and three years. The first US pile was created in Chicago in 1942, and that pile had about 5 tonnes of metallic uranium and the rest was yellowcake, both made as pure as possible, and a chain reaction started, a chain reaction that produced plutonium, something that does not occur in nature. (The pile also needs very pure graphite and cadmium, but graphite and cadmium are easy to obtain, and refining the graphite isn’t that difficult, the hard part is getting enough uranium.)

In 1945, the US obliterated Hiroshima and Nagasaki with two nukes. The US, after Nagasaki was destroyed, explained that there had been a secret test of the first nuke. The US also explained that all three nukes were based on a critical mass of U₂₃₅. They also explained that they got the U₂₃₅ by taking pure uranium, which is mostly U₂₃₈ with a tiny amount of U₂₃₅. One transforms metallic uranium into uranium fluoride gas and centrifuges the gas to separate out the U₂₃₅. It takes a lot of centrifuging, because each round only increases the percentage of U₂₃₅ by a small amount. Eventually, one gets almost pure U₂₃₅, which is a fissile material that can form a nuclear bomb.

I saw a Disney comic in the ‘50s where the duck scientist, Ludwig von Drake, has a tiny speck of U₂₃₅, which he said was the most powerful explosive in the world. He threw the tiny speck of U₂₃₅ into a huge canyon. Someone said, ‘Nothing happened.’ Ludwig von Drake said, ‘It hasn’t hit bottom yet.’ Finally, there was a huge explosion that completely filled the entire canyon, all from a tiny flake of U₂₃₅.

In high school, my science teacher said he’d worked on the bomb, centrifuging uranium fluoride to get pure U₂₃₅.

The Soviets were not fooled. It is extremely difficult to separate out almost pure U₂₃₅. The US eventually admitted one of the three nukes was a plutonium nuke, which is very easy to extract from the uranium pile after three years of a controlled chain reaction. Later it became two plutonium nukes and one U₂₃₅ nuke. Last I heard, many figure it was three plutonium nukes.

Iran has found about 10 tonnes of uranium. None of the nations with large amounts of uranium will sell to Iran.

The nations of the world are divided into two groups, those with lots of uranium, more than 60 tonnes of yellowcake, and those with very little uranium. The group with lots of uranium is further subdivided into two subgroups: those that want and have a nuke, and those who absolutely do not want a nuclear bomb, and sell the uranium that they do not need for their own nuclear power plants to countries of which they approve.

Needless to say, Iran is in the group with very little uranium and no one willing to sell or give them uranium. Israel is in the group of one nation that has very little uranium in mines in their own country, but who might have had a friend that gave them 100 tonnes of yellowcake that they used to build one of the world’s largest and somewhat ‘secret’ nuclear arsenals–Israel will neither confirm nor deny that they have nukes.

As everyone who has ever listened to President Netanyahu has heard him reiterate, ‘Iran is less than a month away from having a nuke,’ so the US must invade immediately or face a nuclear armed Iran that cannot be safely invaded. And Iran has been less than a month away for at least 30 years now.

But without those UN inspectors verifying that Iran aren’t hiding a secret nuke that they could deploy against the US, the US are reluctant to invade.

So Iran are very lucky that Hillary lost the election, or the JCPOA would have gotten them invaded and destroyed.

So Long Mom?

If one reads the US/UK/EU news, Putin had this hair-brained idea of rebuilding the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, and figured the Ukraine was the weakest link and the best place to start. What Putin did not know (as the US/UK/EU reiterate) was that NATO had armed and trained the Ukraine. Russia, meanwhile, had old Soviet weapons from WWII and Czarist weapons from WWI, and nothing else, so the entire Russian army was wiped out by the Ukraine. The Russians managed to invade a few villages, such as Bucha, and kill a bunch of unarmed civilians, but the Russians could not stand up to the Ukrainian military with their ultra-advanced weapons and training from NATO.

Putin lost one army, so he sent a second and a third. Russia have lost more than one million men, while the Ukraine have only lost 31,500. Russia is on the edge of defeat, the Ukraine military have taken the Westernmost part of Russia and will soon be in Moscow and will hand Putin over to the Hague, then Russia will be broken up into 30 or more small, unarmed countries, with all Russian oil and gas forfeited to US oiligarchs as War Reparations.

Great story, and it sells Western news media: print, web, and TV. Not a word of it true, but the point is profit, and the Western news are profiting from this story (and any other story is strictly illegal, unless it's the story that they lied: Russia are much weaker than this story portrays, and victory will be much easier).

Meanwhile, classified US documents read by Tucker Carlson (for which he was fired) say that it's not Russia but the Ukraine that are losing, that the Ukraine have lost close to 1 million men, while Russian losses are only 10% to 20% of Ukrainian losses.

Russia will not stop until NATO agree that the Ukraine will never be a part of NATO, and the faux Ukrainian government, installed by NATO, specifically by Victoria Nuland, is replaced by a government that promise never to join NATO.

It is never mentioned that, in 2021, Putin sent 2 letters, one to the White House and one to NATO headquarters in Europe, that Russia could never allow the Ukraine to be part of NATO. The White House and NATO headquarters both said that Russia had no say in the matter, the Ukraine would join NATO and host the largest NATO military base in the world. After which, Putin invaded.

Putin made one huge mistake. In 2014, Victoria Nuland got rid of a rabidly pro-Russian government whose president kept going back and forth between Russia and Europe, asking which would give him the better deal. So Victoria put in a rabidly anti-Russian government that promised the largest NATO base in the Ukraine, in return, the president got $millions and the Ukraine got nothing, which is just as it should be. The new government announced that all those Russian naval bases in Crimea would be given to NATO, and Russia would be kicked out, leaving Russia with no sea access for their fleet.

Russia invaded Crimea, and the army, with almost all Slavic senior officers, met the Russians and agreed that Crimea would return from the Ukraine to Russia, where it had been until Khrushchev gave it to the Ukraine in 1954. Not a shot was fired.

But, from 2014 until 2022, NATO had the Ukraine remove all Slavic officers from their military and replace them with Aryan officers who wanted the complete destruction of all Slavs and Slavic nations. So when Russia arrived in 2022, it was not like the Crimea, the  Ukrainian Aryans tried their best to destroy the Russian military, who reorganised and began crushing the Ukrainian military.

It is now clear, to observers who are currently in the Ukraine seeing what is happening, that Russia will win.

It is just as clear, to observers in the US/UK/EU, that all reports and news articles say Russia are losing, and losing badly, they have lost three armies, and now all Russian military are very elderly men and very young boys, and most Russians are ready to hand Putin over to the Hague.

The Ukraine say they need long-range weapons that can destroy Moscow and St Petersburg. The UK said, 'OK, we'll give you long-range Storm Shadow missiles.'

Putin said, 'If one Storm Shadow missile hits Russia, every Storm Shadow facility in the UK will be toast.'

The UK withdrew the offer, but the US are now making a similar offer, and Putin has not yet threatened the US facilities, or, if he has, the US suppress that news.

US/UK/EU readers/watchers of the news are still told that the Ukraine are winning and Russia are just days away from total defeat, provided the US/UK/EU support continue. A mere $900 billion have kept the Ukraine close to victory, and more money is essential to completely destroy Russia, 

Everyone is sure the US will easily destroy Russia just as Napoleon did in 1812, and the "1812 Overture" celebrates Napoleon's victory over Russia.

And, of course, the Wehrmacht defeated the USSR. The Wehrmacht fought at Leningrad and Stalingrad, and easily destroyed both cities. Just look at any modern map: there is no trace of Leningrad nor Stalingrad, since both were destroyed by the Wehrmacht, and the Ukrainian/NATO army are rapidly advancing on Moscow (but the US/UK/EU prediction of what will happen when they get there might prove rather less than accurate).                                                                                                                                            

How did we get to Ghaza?

The word 'Zionism', coined by some Jews in central Europe for going to Palestine and forming an army to defend themselves, first appeared at the end of the 19th century. But the basic concept of all Jews going to Palestine started with the British Anglican clergy in 1843 when they said that "Palestine is a land without a people for a people without a land."

The British clergy thought it wrong to allow Jews, deicides all, to live in the UK. While the Bible says the Jews killed Jesus and then said, 'Let his blood be on us and on our children,' making every Jew since the crucifixion a deicide, I was taught in Sunday School that G_d put upon Jews the Mark of Cain, making it prohibited to kill them (the Nazis must have been absent that Sunday). So the best thing the world could do, according to the Anglican clergy, and first written by Rev. Keith, was to send all the Jews to Palestine.

The UK geography said that Arabs are nomads, they don't have homes, they have tents, and follow their goats and camels around from one grassland to another. They wander from Sanaa to Mecca to Jerusalem to Damascus to Baghdad and back to Sanaa, and they could start going around, rather than through Palestine, which would be exclusively for the Jews.

In the 19th century, Britain wanted to take Arabia from the Ottoman Empire and add it to the British Empire. An early British proposal said that Palestine and Transjordan would be exclusively for the Jews, and the rest of Arabia would be for the Arabs. A later proposal said only Palestine would be for the Jews, Transjordan would be for the Arabs. The final Balfour Declaration said that British Jews must go to Palestine and live peacefully with the Palestinians as British colonials.

After WWI, Britain and France took Arabia from the Ottoman Empire, chopped it up into chunks including Palestine, Jordan, Iraq, and other bits as British colonies, Syria and Lebanon as French colonies. With all of Palestine a British colony (or Mandate, as it was technically called), Britain said Palestine was only for Palestinians and British Jews.

In the 19th and early 20th century, most Jews lived in The Pale, where they were subject to frequent pogroms. Some asked if they could go to Palestine to avoid the pogroms, but the British said, 'NO!' So many went to the US, which allowed anyone to immigrate until 1921, and we got the play, "Fiddler on the Roof". But from 1921 until 1944, Jews were only allowed into the US if they had a Nobel Prize or the equivalent.

So, from 1933 until 1945, Jews in Europe had nowhere they could run, and many were killed. The usual number stated is six million murdered in the Holocaust, but serious historians say we really don't know, the Germans did their best to keep the Holocaust secret. So serious historians say the number is almost certainly between four million to six million Jews that were killed in the Holocaust, and those who want to maximise the horror of the Holocaust always use the six million. The Holocaust is almost alone as being legally genocide, because the legal definition of genocide requires written proof that a religious or ethnic group are being killed only because of their religion or ethnic group, and we have hard proof that the Nazis killed Jews just for being Jews. (We also have hard proof that the Nazis killed Slavs just for being Slavs, but that was not genocide, it just went to show that there's a little good in the worst of men.)

After WWII, The Axis were officially defeated, but the UK and France were also defeated, even if no one said anything. Both had to give up their large Empires, including Palestine, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon. So in 1948, the British colony of Palestine ceased to be a British colony, and all the Jews in Western Europe were shipped to Palestine, whether they wanted to go or not.

The Americans, British, and French gave the European Jews weapons, and they were able to defeat the Palestinians and drive many of them (but not all) out of Palestine. But this is not genocide because there is no written proof that the Jews were killing Palestinians only because they were Palestinians, proof that is required for the killing to be genocide.

It is, likewise, impossible to prove that Israel have been committing genocide in Ghaza since 7 October 2023: they say they are only targeting terrorists, not Palestinians, and we have no written proof that Israel are killing the Palestinians in Ghaza (and the West Bank) only because they are Palestinians. As one expert said, 'Genocide can only be proven in a case like Germany where they were defeated, and the victors sought and found written proof that they were killing people only because of their religion or ethnic group.' Since it is unlikely that Israel, backed by the US/UK/EU, will be defeated, no proof that Israel are killing Palestinians only because they are Palestinians will ever be found.

So the US/UK/EU have made it a serious criminal offence to accuse Israel of genocide. In fact, it is a criminal offence in the US/UK/EU to make any criticism of Israel, and many protesting for the Palestinians have been arrested, expelled from university, and generally punished for saying anything negative about Israel.

One must say that Israel have the right to self defence, and that killing terrorists who are determined to kill every Jew on earth is Israel's legal right, and non-terrorists killed were human shields, so their deaths are all the fault of the terrorists, not Israel.

Israel have their own translations of the Hamas charter and the school textbooks in Ghaza and the West Bank (in Hebrew and English), and the Israeli translations say it is the duty of every Palestinian to kill every Jew. It is, of course, illegal in the US/UK/EU to question those Israeli translations, we must accept them as proven fact.

So clearly Israel have the right to defend themselves, and this is certainly not genocide, it is a very laudable thing the Israelis are doing in Ghaza and the West Bank. And one must say that or be in serious violation of US/UK/EU law.

Western News and More about Telegram and X

All the news—TV, newspapers, whatever—in the US/UK/EU must write that Putin, in a harebrained scheme to recreate the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, launched an unprovoked and totally illegal, under international law, attack on the Ukraine, where he lost three armies with only Soviet weapons from WWII and Czarist weapons from WWI against the most advanced NATO weapons. And Putin is still sending what is left of Russian manhood—young boys and old men—to certain deaths in the Ukraine, who are now annexing a large part of Russia and will soon own Moscow and send Putin to the Hague as a war criminal.

But there is another story that is de rigueur in the US/UK/EU media: the genocide in Israel. Basically, for three horrible days starting on 7 October, 2023, Palestinian Islamic jihadists committed the worst genocide since the American-led Allies liberated the Nazi Concentration Camps at the end of WWII.

The Palestinian terrorists killed about 1,4001,200 innocent Jewish civilians, mostly women and children, raping and murdering the women and burning the babies in ovens while their parents were forced to hear their screams as they burned to death. All the Palestinian textbooks in Israel (translated by the Israelis into American, British, and European languages) say it is the duty of every Palestinian to kill all the Jews in the world. So Israel, acting strictly in self defence, have been forced by the Palestinians to kill the Palestinian terrorists trying to kill Jews, and the terrorists hold Palestinian babies in front of themselves as they are shooting Jews, so Israel have accidentally killed a few babies to save the lives of all those Jews targeted by the jihadi terrorists. This, and only this, is the story about Palestine that may be told in the US/UK/EU. Say the Israelis are committing a genocide on the Palestinians and go to gaol, this is not allowed, it is illegal in the US/UK/EU. Proving that the US/UK/EU are totally anti-genocide, and never allow any nation to do such a thing. And the US/UK/EU are also totally THE TRVTH, making it illegal to publish or broadcast anything else.

But on the evil and now banned Telegram (whose owner is rightly under surveillance in France pending his trial, conviction, and sentence to at least 10 years, and probably a lot longer), it is the Israelis who are committing genocide on the Palestinians, a story that is illegal in the US/UK/EU.

It was in 1843 that the Anglican Rev. Keith wrote that 'Palestine is a land without a people for a people without a land,' meaning that the UK must send every Jew in the UK to Palestine, since good Anglicans could not live with deicides but neither could they kill the Jews, since every Jew bears the Mark of Cain for killing Jesus. (Since it was the Romans who executed Jesus, the Bible has to do some work to make it clear to the reader that the Romans were innocent, it was the Jews who killed Jesus.)

During WWII, the Royal Navy prevented Nazi Germany from sending Jews out from Europe, so there was no other way for the Nazis to get rid of Jews, except by killing them. But all Jews still bear the Mark of Cain, so it is not permitted to kill them, and the UK hanged thousands of Germans for killing Jews after WWII, and recorded the fact (I haven't seen anything like the autobiography of a British hangman who wrote about hanging hundreds of Germans, and he was just one of several hangmen sent to hang Germans after WWII, so I don't know what the French and Soviets did to their Nazi prisoners). The US were at Nuremberg, but not much is written about what the US did to other Germans after WWII, except for those responsible for the V-1 and V-2 attacks on the UK who were made US citizens so they could help the US develop their own V-rockets to defend against the impending Soviet attack on the US, since the Soviets hate Freedom and Democracy so much the US knew they must be planning to attack the US.

It was in the 19th century that the UK wrote Mandates that Arabia must be divided, with Palestine for the Jews and the rest of Arabia for the Arabs, or that Palestine and Transjordan were for the Jews, and the rest of Arabia for the Arabs. But the final 20th century Balfour Declaration said that UK Jews must peacefully share Palestine with the Arabs as a UK colony. The UK Jews, like the Americans of all religions and sects, hated the British Imperialists and fought hard to get rid of them, until 1948 when the US and France forced the UK to agree that the UK Palestinian colony was a Free Country. Actually, two Free Countries until 1967, when Israel declared, with US/UK/French consent, that all of what had once been Palestine was now all Israel (plus parts of what had been Syria and Lebanon).

And the US will defend this new and improved Israel, and will ban and gaol anyone who says anything negative about the totally justified and legal and honourable Israel.

So Telegram had to go, and Twitter must return to its prior state with thousands of US government employees checking every tweet and shadow banning all tweets that are not in full compliance with US government guidelines.

Alphabet® and Meta® both have lots of US government agents checking to make sure that none of the widely viewed items violate US government policy (I have seen some Instagram® posts, originally in English but completely covered with Arabic translations of what the person is saying, that are in heinous violation of Meta®/US government guidelines, but such posts must be seen by so few Westerners that they don't trigger the 'check me' button).

So any platform where many can see the lies that Israelis are committing genocide, when it was the Palestinian terrorists who committed genocide on 7-9 October, 2023, must be blocked and the owner gaoled.

Telegram down, X to go.
