Daily Chronicles

We are in the throes of One War, an Omniwar, a new Full Spectrum Dominance from a falling empire, with one objective : the weaponization of everything. When an empire falls, one cannot make agreement with it. A different figurehead is but a temporary phenomenon as the operations and philosophy of empire is systemic.

Daily Chronicles features those issues small or large, that have the potential to change our world. We focus on anti-human systems that have to go and be replaced by more straightforward and honest endeavors aimed at growing food worth eating, doing honest trade, running an honest financial system, healing people, traveling, building places worth living in, creating cool technology, going to space and learning useful things. Multipolarity underpinned by a multinodal and multi-lateral approach is how we roll. In today’s times, we find ourselves resisting the First War on BRICS.

As BRICS chair in 2025, Brazil plans to “compress” the group’s agenda by holding the summit in July, according to Russian Ambassador to Brazil Alexey Labetsky. He assured in an interview with TASS that this streamlined approach would not lead to any shortcomings in delivering outcomes.

Quote: by Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi (rip)  “Their plan is to wipe Lebanon and Syria off the map so that the borders of what we call Israel will be with Turkey and not with Arab countries. You will see that, unfortunately, this will happen, if not in our lifetime, then in the lifetime of our children… Israel said this: the balkanisation of the Arab states, that is, the balkanisation of Egypt into 4 states, Syria into 5 states, little Lebanon will be divided into provinces, municipalities and cantons… The map already exists and everything is written…”

Russia will manage BRICS for the next six months.  Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, the Russian BRICS Sherpa says that Russia is ready to host a series of new BRICS meetings on its territory in 2025.  He is referring to the meetings of the various BRICS groupings, like finance and economy and so on, but in reality they know they have to keep the ball in their hands.

Regarding BRICS own system of payments and settlements, he said it is not hypothetical, it exists.  What is being worked on now is clearing mechanisms – transaction insurance systems, including insurance for the movement of goods and cargoes, which would not depend on harmful external influences”.  He says all together this is the minimum that could allow the ‘BRICS’ to say that things have moved forward and a real alternative has emerged.”

He plays down the fear of dedollarization.  “This plan is now on the table and that will be implemented is not a pattern for dollar substitution in all settlements. It is a pattern for creating an additional circuit for work in conditions when the main and well known to all dollar channel is failing.”

I’m listening to the UNSC on Syria.  There is a joyful party going on with all these supercilious voices talking about how the Syrians are freeing Syria and how the Syrians overthrew the brutal and repressive al-Assad regime.  There are plenty of references to the false CNN reports on prisoners.  There are low key but continual comments that Israel is breaking international law.

What is interesting though is Mr Nebenzia.  It seems as if Russia currently is supporting a rebuilding process and the efforts being implemented now.  They call for funding.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

This is the first time that I see Hamas suggesting that a peace agreement might work, this time.

Reported by PressTV:  Palestinian resistance Hamas describes Doha talks mediated by Qatar, Egypt as ‘serious, positive’.  Reaching agreement on prisoner exchange, ceasefire is possible if occupation stops making excuses.

Gaza: Death toll in Gaza tops 45,000, mostly children, women on day 438 of US-Israeli genocidal war.  More than 107,000 injured across Gaza as Israeli genocidal massacres continue unabated.

Numbers are cold.

The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has warned that two million people in Gaza are are suffering from “acute hunger,” as Israel prevents humanitarian missions from reaching the war-wracked besieged strip.

Israeli forces continue the genocide in Gaza, killing more than 110 Palestinians, including civilians, journalists, and humanitarian workers, in just the past few days, with officials describing the situation as a “historical catastrophe.”

MUST READ:  Statement from Bashar al-Assad:  https://sovereignista.com/2024/12/16/bashar-al-assad-statement/

Gaza: Yesterday and overnight the zionists bombed Gaza with the continued objective to kill, maim, and massacre all Palestinians. We have an open genocide and the world is not acting as it should. The western world is completely complicit in using zion as its proxy, as they made a proxy of the Ukraine. The policy of chaos continues with no respect for human life. Sit back for a moment and absorb that – no respect for Human Life, including your Life and my Life.

The Gaza Health Ministry reports over 45,000 deaths in the 14-month Israel-Hamas war, with 52 more fatalities in the past 24 hours. Women and children make up over half the toll.

Israel claims 17,000 militants have been killed. Medics say many remain under rubble, with the death toll now amounting to roughly 2% of Gaza’s entire prewar population of about 2.3 million.

(And we do know the death toll is higher by orders of magnitude.  Many, those under rubble and those who are not identifiable cannot be counted).

Yemen popped off a ballistic missile toward Tel Aviv.   Millions of zionists ran for shelters.        Deputy Chairman of the Media Authority of the AnsarAllah Movement stated: “We are doing everything in our power and exerting every effort to deter Israeli aggression on Gaza and Syria, and we will continue to do so.”

🔹🔹🔹🔹

In what Israeli media described as a “Hiroshima in Tartus,” Israeli airstrikes in western Syria triggered massive explosions and an earthquake of 3.0 magnitude. Israel has launched over 500 airstrikes on Syrian territory since the Assad administration’s collapse.

The latest wave of airstrikes on military sites across Syria coincided with Israeli ground forces advancing deeper into Quneitra province in southern Syria. Reports suggest Israeli forces are now just 15 kilometers from the key highway linking Lebanon’s capital, Beirut, to Damascus.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

‘Since the beginning of the SMO the Ukrainian Armed Forces have lost about 1 million people’ – Belousov.

The speed of advance of Russian troops is currently on average about 30 square kilometers per day – Belousov.

Over 427,000 military personnel were recruited in Russia in 2024, with over 1,200 people signing contracts every day.– Belousov.

Russian Defense Minister Belousov: “Russia is preparing for all scenarios, including a possible military conflict with NATO in Europe in the next decade”

In my opinion – a decade is the long edge of the wedge. I consider this much sooner, depending on how the chaos spreads.

Syrian embassy will open in the US tomorrow – local media

Syria’s embassy will open in Washington DC for the first time since 2014, when diplomatic relations were suspended, according to sources at a pro-opposition Syrian TV channel.

 

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The Russian Foreign Ministry announced the evacuation of some personnel from its foreign missions in Damascus. Despite this, the Russian Embassy in Damascus remains operational.

Additionally, Russia has facilitated the evacuation of staff from the diplomatic missions of North Korea, Abkhazia, and Belarus stationed in Syria.

A little forgotten flashback: a Soviet pro-Palestinian poster from the early 80s (before Gorbachev) that reads “Слава мужеству Палестинских Борцов!” “Let’s salute the courage of the Palestinian fighters!”. (Thanks AHH!)

The widespread condemnation of “the Arabs can’t fight” and by definition that is why
Syria fell, is not only shallow, it is untrue. We need to tell them about Sinwar, and Sinwar’s stick. We need to tell them about Hezbollah and holding off Israel at the Northern border so that the enemy could not move and lost many lives.  Today, some Syrian soldiers are still fighting and a resistance is clearly standing up:  https://t.me/syriangirlpartisan/452

🔹🔹🔹🔹

It is good to hear Vanessa Beeley’s story of how she escaped from Damascus into Lebanon.  https://t.me/VanessaBeeley/34614

I am happy that she is safe now to an extent.  As a journalist she was devoted to telling Syria’s story.

Gaza Health Ministry: 46 Palestinians killed, 135 others injured in Israeli strikes in 24 hours

December 14

There is not even a word for this loony tunes absurdity.  So, the rent-a-jihadi’s wrote a letter to the UN to ask for help and also to complain bitterly because Israel is attacking them. https://www.rt.com/news/609369-syria-asks-world-for-help/ 

These jihadis are fast being rehabilitated.  (But just a few days ago they attacked Syria – please somebody, make it make sense!)  Even the Russian press now calls them The new Syrian authorities.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

So who is going to nab Damascus first? Erdogan, or zion? Read carefully (those with a smattering of escatology will get it immediately) ..

Israeli rabbis in the newly occupied territories of Syria: “We have already occupied and taken over Syria by the power of the rabbi… Damascus will fall, the Temple will be built, the savior rabbi will be revealed, and we will achieve true and complete salvation.” Let’s raise a toast! L’Chaim!

“We’re facing a global confrontation that affects our lives in all its aspects: culture, education, economy and technology – all the domains. There is not a single domain that is immune to this. We need to use all our expertise, all our political experience, our reputation and the best talent in the interests of our nation,” President Putin emphasized at the United Russia Party Congress.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The attention is diverted from Gaza, and meanwhile, treacherous plans are being executed with joint pressure on Hamas leaders by Turkey, Qatar, and Egypt. This is happening while massacres continue to increase.

Zion is still massacring everything that moves in Gaza.  Despite all the shock because of the fall of Syria, we still have a genocide going on and the US keeps a live veto.  The UNSC does have methodology, even militarily, to intervene in such cases.  Pundits on Syria in one week became so forgetful that they’re forgetting to devote even one short sentence to Gaza – it’s more interesting and more triggering to talk about Syria.  Gaza and Palestine are the shame on the faces of the world.  Burning displaced children in their tents with nobody prepared to act will forever stain the conscience of all those who call themselves leaders in our world.  Pol Pot’s genocide lasted from 1975 to 1979, and killed 25% of Cambodia’s population.  This ended only because Vietnam intervened militarily and toppled the Khmer Rouge regime.  It is estimated that 1.5 to 2 million Cambodians were killed from 1975 to 1979.  One cannot negotiate with a genocidaire.  The regime needs to be put out of action.

Checking my three X feeds, there is one tweet on Gaza, and it was overwhelmed by zionist botnets screeching inanities. IT’S. A. GENOCIDE. REPORT. IT. DAILY.

A loss for empire, so far. Georgian Dream candidate Kavelashvili has received the required 200 votes and has just been elected president of Georgia. We will see how much interference can possible be thrown at Georgia ongoing. The ‘French Grandmother’ has already stated that she does not recognize any elections in Georgia and refuses to leave the presidential palace.

In South Korea, the president Yoon Suk Yeol has been impeached. He is the one who declared martial law and had to renege a short six hours after (shortest martial law in history). Things go wrong with instituted presidents.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

In the US, Trump said to shoot the drones down (he surely meant military shoot-downs), but some took him seriously and people are out in their backyards shooting at drones.

Also in the US: Chinese garlic (I kid you not) poses a “major threat” to US food security. In response to US Senator Rick Scott’s claims that Chinese garlic poses a “major threat” to US food security, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning on Friday dismissed the remarks as absurd, noting that such statements have become a source of ridicule among Chinese netizens. She pointed out the growing trend of the US labeling Chinese products—from drones and cranes to refrigerators and garlic—as “national security risks,” while emphasizing that none of the so-called evidence and reasons cited by the US could withstand scrutiny.

Plunder! It’s the season. President of Türkiye: The second century of Türkiye has begun and we are on the verge of entering a new era.

If the region had not been divided after World War II, the cities of Aleppo, Damascus, Hama, Idlib, Raqqa and Homs would have remained as Turkish cities.

Genocide continues:  Death toll from US-Israeli genocide in Gaza strip since Oct. 2023 rises to 44,875

It’s Friday, and the Yemenis are out in the streets to condemn zionist atrocities in Palestine, Syria

Yemen’s Ansarullah announced that, in cooperation with the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, they attacked targets in Tel Aviv, Ashkelon, and southern Israel using drones.

Israeli soldiers involved in the genocidal war on Gaza have been urged to refrain from posting war photos over fears of prosecution abroad, a month after the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for heads of the Israeli regime.  (The most moral army in the world we’ve been told).

Key statements from Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov’s briefing:

🔹US President-elect Donald Trump’s statements that a decision to launch missile strikes on Russia escalates the conflict coincide with Moscow’s position;

🔹Speculations that the settlement in Ukraine will be easier with Trump in the office are premature, we should not forget about the sanctions of the Trump administration;

🔹Time will tell what actions Trump will take regarding the Ukrainian conflict after his inauguration;

🔹Destruction of the Ukrainian energy facilities is, among other things, a response to attacks on Taganrog by the the Ukrainian armed forces;

🔹There are currently no prerequisites for negotiations on the Ukrainian crisis, Kiev is avoiding them;

🔹Russia remains open to negotiations on the Ukrainian settlement, considers them necessary;

🔹Russia is not seeking a truce, but peace, which will come after Moscow’s conditions are met.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Trump invited Xi Jinping for the inauguration.  So far word is Xi will not attend.  The Chinese Ambassador in the US will attend.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov:

Bolivia and Cuba will join BRICS as partner countries starting January 1, 2025.  The deputy minister also says that the coordination process with invited states is still ongoing but will be completed by the end of the Russian presidency in the organization.

Russia expects the new Chairmanship under Brazil to be ineffective and they are doing everything that needs to be done before January.

Russian MoD: On 11 December 2024, from the territory of Ukraine the AFU delivered a strike by six U.S.-made ATACMS operational-tactical missiles at the military airfield near Taganrog.

In response to the use of U.S.-made long-range weapons, the Russian Armed Forces delivered heavy strikes by high-precision air- and sea-based weapons and attack drones at Ukrainian fuel and power infrastructure facilities ensuring operation of the defence industry.

The goal of the strike has been achieved. All the targets have been engaged.

Emergency power outages have begun in Odessa and its suburbs.

According to local authorities, 481,000 consumers are currently without power in the Lvov region, and half of consumers in the Ternopol region.

(Comment:  That is probably wildly underestimated)

Ukraine has requested electricity imports from five neighboring countries. Ukrenergo reported that it will be delivered within 24 hours from Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, and Moldova. In total, the country requires more than 13.4 thousand megawatts per hour.

(Comment: As I read the map of Russian strikes, it looks as if predominantly western Ukraine was targeted).

Netanyahu is confident in his own abilities to keep genocide alive. He has Trump on his side. There is hardly a speech where he does not conjure Trump.

The new message from the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime to the people of Iran:

“Woman life freedom is your future.
Your government spent over $30 billion to keep Assad in Syria, but the Assad regime collapsed after just 11 days.

Your government spent over $20 billion on Hezbollah, but we killed Hezbollah leaders and thousands of its fighters.

We have access to our targets in Tehran and, as Trump pointed out, Israeli soldiers will succeed.”

(Sure, given that you are a genocidaire and that Trump wants to have the area for real estate (and oil) deals and that you are fighting against nothing. I can take the Golan with no opposition as a joke. I can stand on the Mount and declare, it is now mine – I’ve made a buffer zone. I would be delusional to do that, and you are delusional. For your information, we have more resistance in Syria now and nobody in this whole world believes you.

The New Jersey Drones: It is not very long ago when it was the balloons that the Chinese sent over to spy on the US and some serious shooting at weather balloons was necessary. Now, it is the fantastical story by Fantasia of Iranian drones over New Jersey. Next for destabilization or war is Iran, and the US citizenry is being prepared. Positive confirmatory messages, as well as messages of denial, are both welcome, as long as ‘evil Iran’ is the one that is in the crosshairs and there is a turgid discussion in the social medias to keep the topic front and center.

Positive: Reports range from four to 180 sightings per night, according to New Jersey Assemblywoman Dawn Fantasia. (Yes, her name really is Fantasia).

Denial: “There is not any truth to that — there is no Iranian ship off the coast of the United States, and there’s no so-called mothership launching drones towards the United States,” deputy Pentagon press secretary Sabrina Singh told reporters Wednesday.

Pepe on his X channel says:

The Russian MoD has already clinched an “informal understanding” with the remodeled HTS head-choppers that Russian bases stay there- and won’t be going anywhere.

That’s not exactly what the Empire of Chaos had in mind, innit?

Israeli occupation forces detonated several houses in Al-Janina neighborhood in Rafah. While the world’s eyes have turned to Syria, Israel continues destroying and erasing Gaza. In 433 days of genocide, Israel has killed over 44,805 people and injured over 106,257 in Gaza.

What mutant will be born from the brew of the Syrian civil war.

The Baath Party in Syria has officially suspended its activities. It is worth recalling that the destruction of the Baath Party in Iraq led to the emergence of ISIS.

Independent UN experts have decried Israel’s targeted aerial strikes on Syria as blatantly unlawful, with their clear attempt at preemptively disarming Syria in order to render it defenseless against further acts of aggression. George Katrougalos, UN special rapporteur on the promotion of democratic and equitable international order, described the strikes as “attacks without provocation against a sovereign state.”  Israel has now struck Syria over 300 times in the last few days.  ‘Lebensraum’ is needed for Eretz Israel.  Note this is a philosophical, theological and halakhic (Jewish legal) concept and is not equivalent to the political State of Israel. The Pentagon trotted out the old canard: Israeli incursion into Syria amounts to self-defense — Pentagon. The West is whitewashing Syrian rebels: From terrorists to ‘freedom fighters.’

Deputy DoD Press Secretary Sabrina Singh defended US support for these actions, citing alleged threats to Israeli security, including unsubstantiated claims of Syrian chemical weapons use.

The de-facto authorities in Damascus have reportedly set in motion a campaign to confiscate firearms from civilians. Critics say this move could help entrench HTS rule and root out the possibility of any major opposition. Others point to the ruling being issued in light of weapons being looted from numerous storage facilities.

Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the speaker of the Iranian Parliament, has commented on Assad’s toppling, saying that the event did cause disruption to the Axis of Resistance, but that the Axis will adapt to the new circumstances and come out stronger.

The tomb of Syria’s late President Hafez Al-Assad, father of the deposed President Bashar Al-Assad, has been burned down by rebel fighters in Damascus.

Religious and ethnic minorities in Syria continue to face uncertainty about their safety in the country. Armed rebel gunmen reportedly entered the shrine of Sayyeda Zeinab in Damascus, which holds significance for Shiite Muslims worldwide.

The Pentagon will maintain its 900-strong troop contingency in Syria under the pretext that ISIS could possibly grow stronger and exploit the power vacuum in the country.

Commander-in-Chief of the Kurdish-led and US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces, Mazloum Abdî, stated that his troops have been forced to pause anti-ISIS operations due to the persistent threat from Turkish-backed SNA forces. Commander Abdî further noted that they have already seen ISIS exploiting the new power vacuum to grow stronger.

The Turkish Air Force struck the public security headquarters of the Syrian Democratic Forces in the city of Raqqa in eastern Syria. Experts noted that it is highly unusual for Turkey to strike this deep inside Syrian territory.

Syria’s jihadists are so “diversity-friendly” they brought Jews back to Damascus—along with Uzbeks, Tajiks, Turks, Uyghurs, Chechens, Albanians… you name it.

A new alliance in the BRICS family:

Vladimir Putin announced the launch of the BRICS Alliance for AI development.  According to the head of state, the new format of interaction will give a serious impetus to cooperation between the countries of the association and other interested states in the field of information technology.

There are 3,000 economic zones in BRICS which is 40% of the world’s total.

BRICS is not very strong in Brazil, who holds the chairmanship currently.  With LULA undergoing a second brain surgery today, we can only trust that the rest of BRICS are picking up the pieces.  What is positive though is the strong relationship with China and Belt and Road.
