The kill count continues to rise across Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, and Syria. Children are targets. Taking a look at the sequential killing spree this morning, the increase in bombing, shooting, droning, killing, destruction, abduction by the death cult, was visible to the eye. The last 6 hours or so, I saw 50+ reports of what is clearly a genocidal killing spree increasing in ferocity and blood lust. Let me repeat what Jared Kushner said after his Ukraine meeting yesterday: Kushner says:

KUSHNER: We’re working through some political issues in Israel.  They just have a crazy election and that makes them a little irrational in certain regards.

This is what ‘a little irrational’ looks like:

In just the last two weeks, the killing of children across Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, and Syria has reached another horrifying level. Initial reports indicate that American and Israeli attacks are killing an average of around seven children every day across these fronts. Some are killed instantly in airstrikes, shelling, and drone attacks, while many others die later from their wounds, burns, displacement, starvation, or the long-term consequences of war.

Since October 2023, the killing toll from American-Israeli genocidal campaigns, together with the massacres carried out by their regional allies, including HTS terrorists in the occupied Syria, has crossed an initial estimate of 100,000 children.

Gaza alone has witnessed the killing of nearly 50 thousand children. In Lebanon, children continue to die from Israeli airstrikes, drone attacks, and even cluster munitions left behind after bombardments. In Iran, children have also become victims of direct American attacks, including the massacre in Sirik, where an American strike targeted a wedding ceremony and killed children alongside civilians. The massacres in Minab and Lamard added even more innocent victims to this growing list.

The names continue to grow. Muhammad Ali Ibrahim, a child from Haboush in southern Lebanon, was killed after an Israeli cluster munition exploded. Lama Mohammed Habib, a Palestinian child, was killed in an Israeli strike in the Al-Katiba area of western Gaza City while families had gathered only to collect water. A baby was also killed after an Israeli strike destroyed a residential building in southern Lebanon, and many more children remain trapped under rubble or fighting for their lives in hospitals.

This is no longer a collection of isolated incidents spread across different countries. It is one continuous pattern of violence stretching from Gaza to southern Lebanon, from Sirik in Iran to Syria’s devastated towns. Children have become the most vulnerable victims of a war that continues to expand across West Asia under the framework of American and Israeli terrorism, while the world continues to witness the destruction of an entire generation.

Forgive me.  We do not usually post images of killings, but let this lone one stand.   There are many more.  Of the alt reporters, George Galloway keeps reporting and there are but a handful that keep reporting.

Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen to its lowest level since May, according to Reuters.

An average of just 10 commodity ships passed through the strait each day over the past 10 days, with only two transits recorded on Saturday and six on Sunday.

The utterly demented imperialist in the White House just claimed the moon as the territory of the US empire.

Now he also wants to change the name of New Mexico to “New America”. (New Mexico and neighboring states were stolen from Mexico in a US war of aggression in 1846-48.) https://t.co/CMVQ1AguVy pic.twitter.com/fwRHUh86jR

We may take a quick look at the current status of the Reflecting Pool as an iconic image for those that claim the moon.

💬 “A peaceful settlement on Ukraine cannot be ruled out, but no concrete prerequisites have emerged so far,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

Other key statements:

▫️ Russia’s stance on the terms of a settlement with Ukraine, as laid out by Putin two years ago, remains unchanged

▫️ Any facilities producing Western weapons on Ukrainian soil will be regarded as legitimate targets for Russian forces

▫️ Russia has taken note of the plans by Germany and France to develop long-range missile and drone systems

Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the twink and the midget in Ukraine yesterday made the gorge rise.  It was so wonderful for them.  The train ride was so good and evoked memories.  The discussions were so friendly.  They did not have to present the Russian stance to Ukraine (and the Europeans were present, great Britain, France and Germany.)  And soon a trilateral will be announced, so they say, completely in ecstasy with their own message.

Besides confirming the looming theft of Gaza, Kushner promised major rebuilding for Ukraine, through Blackrock and similar.  Do you see it yet?  This is not a peace negotiation, but if they cannot rape Russia again for right now, they will rape Ukraine, and remain firmly on Russia’s borders.  It is the same playbook as in West Asia.   These people are boringly dangerous and they are there to continue the aims of Greater Israel and US primacy.

Commentators are bitterly asking why on earth would Russia even speak to the two tweedles.  Well, it is two biggest nuclear armed countries.  Instead of criticizing Russia, we can be thankful at this stage that Russia still talks.

Compare with Peskov’s comment that Russia’s stance re settlement remains unchanged, take note of Lavrov’s comment that Germany is preparing for war against Russia, and read Naryshkin:

Collective West working to undermine international law – Russian intel chief

Other statements by Sergey Naryshkin:

🟠 Some Western countries are trying to weaken the international legal system

🟠 CIS intelligence agencies will boost cooperation to counter unfriendly states

🟠 EU countries are directly participating in hostilities on Ukraine’s side

🟠 EU rapidly moving away from integration, turning into a Russophobic grouping

🟠 Russian forces in Kaliningrad and western borders will prevent any aggression

Iran invokes Article 51 of UN Charter to defend retaliatory strikes against US bases

Iran has formally asserted that its retaliatory military operations against US bases in the region are entirely legitimate acts of sovereign self-defense grounded in international law, according to Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei.

Addressing reporters, Baghaei stated that Tehran’s actions are a direct and necessary response to an ongoing US naval blockade and a “full-scale economic war.”

He emphasized that the military response falls squarely within the framework of the inherent right to self-defense outlined under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter.

Baghaei further argued that Washington’s aggressive military postures, coupled with resultant civilian casualties and the killing of children, completely invalidate any moral or legal standing behind US claims of victimhood, framing Tehran’s strategy as a justified defense of national sovereignty against US aggression.  Report from The Cradle

Up to now, this daily report focused on Russia, Ukraine and the growing war in West Asia.  This is not all in the drang nach primacy:

Trilateral drills begin near Jeju

Japan, South Korea and the United States on Monday launched a trilateral multi-domain exercise running through Friday in international waters east and south of Jeju. The Freedom Edge drills include real-time data sharing and synchronized maritime and aviation coordination, while North Korea condemned them as part of Washington’s hostile policy.

The exercise is the fourth since Freedom Edge was established in 2024 and follows a five-day edition last year. It comes after last month’s annual South Korea-U.S. exercise was shortened from an originally planned 11 days after U.S. President Donald Trump said the drills were costly and could send the wrong signals to North Korea.

The latest drills indicate continued trilateral military coordination despite recent pressure to limit allied exercises on the peninsula. North Korea said it would respond with the toughest stand.

There is a corollary to these drills.  Russia, China & Mongolia hold joint border defense exercise

The exercises, involving UAVs, helicopters, and infantry units, simulate a joint response to armed incursions across the tri-border area. This marks the second such operation conducted by the three neighboring nations.

FM Lavrov:   Recently, I read that a Japanese scientist blames USSR for Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and I couldn’t believe my eyes.  ‘The explanation was that the US BOMBED Hiroshima and Nagasaki JUST TO SHOW the Soviet Union ITS PLACE, to stop its expansion’.

A Defense Mobilization Office for China – the interaction between civil society and militaay in times of war

China’s National Development and Reform Commission has set up a National Defense Mobilization Department ahead of the revised National Defense Mobilization Law taking effect in October, according to the agency’s published description. The new unit will handle overall coordination, planning, and implementation supervision for defense mobilization, and support the daily work of the national mobilization commission.

China last month approved the first major revision of the law in 16 years, formally defining defense mobilization as the conversion of economic and social capacity into defense capacity. The revised framework also brings advanced technology and emerging sectors into the system, further institutionalizing a structure linking the military, local governments, enterprises, and research bodies for peacetime resource control and wartime conversion.

Under the revised law, the national defense mobilization commission is responsible for organizing nationwide mobilization, drafting national plans, and preparing overall implementation contingencies. The NDRC’s new office indicates a clearer division between military personnel mobilization and civilian resource mobilization.  https://www.zaobao.com.sg/news/china/story20260907-9637384
