      Lol! I couldn’t resist.

      We all wish a harmonious peaceful world of constructive coexistence… but not with the fellas who designed this video in charge. (did you catch the occultic messaging? The thousand points of light, the 5G symbol formation (in 1971!), “grow [forbidden] apple trees and honey [hive-mind] bees…”) with all our mindwashed youth singing to a single coordinated tune from a hill near ancient Rome. God Help our youth in the Brave New World. The battle terrain is their very mind.

      So which path forward for BRICS?? Who will be its pied piper? Nature abhors a vacuum and purposeless herding. There’s always a primus inter pares

      Another fanboy video, but some nuggets. Shocking how Germany is being suicided. “China starts to shake off Germany:”

      Deindustrialized at home and now being forcefully decoupled by the crazies, Chinese companies take over German car niche both within China (their largest market!) and in Russia, which is Europe’s 2nd biggest and world’s 8th biggest auto market.

      Latest: Mercedes and BMW add heaps of salt to their own wounds! What is ongoing is a true suicide of a once great nation. Unbelievable. Total satanic ideology of destruction at play.

      This is the death of the German auto industry, and much else reliant on it too… with end of this niche comes loss of a lotta added prestige. Many industries (and European countries) piggy-backed onto the visibility and reputation of German cars. Entire servicing sectors in most countries too, which will now redirect to Chinese, Russian and other Asian brands. And are Mercedes trucks among top sellers worldwide?? I see so many of them in Africa and Asia.

      Within a few short years a new generation will rise blissfully unaware of “German engineering” – and the older ones stiffed by one-sided termination of service and now difficult if impossible to find parts will long harbor resentment. This is how to destroy a brand forever…..

      Maui> A marvelous coincidence! https://mauinow.com/2021/12/15/new-maui-police-chief-takes-helm/    So sad how misfortune seems to dog this fine officer.

      excerpt>

      John Pelletier gets sworn in today alongside Deputy Chief Charles Hank III.

      Pelletier already laid out budget priority requests, which include the establishment of a dedicated civilian recruiter; creation of a part time cold case team; and creation of a patrol K-9 program.

      Pelletier has served the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department for the past 22 years in numerous capacities. He oversaw the K-9 and SWAT units and served as commander of the Convention Center Area Command, which is responsible for the Las Vegas “strip.” – – – …ncident commander for the One October mass casualty event in Las Vegas. His Deputy Chief selection, Hank, was also part of the command for the incident and provided after-action presentations across the country on preventing, responding to, and mitigating similar active shooter events.”

      A  dynamic duo and charming couple… sterling fellows, who could possibly doubt their dedication to selfless service? I not that the establishment of a network of doggie sniffers of crime, and somewhat simian “civilian” agents, and a “part time” cold case department of snooping into dirt on everybody via, w assume, “forensics”… How very regrettable the coincidental (obvious) crime wave of mysterious arson. Pity…

      …….

      Soviet bird look for water and suitable loci on Luna… like Checkoff’s gun… And Jacob.

      The new copper chief looks like a psycho. Perfect for the double-secret job description…

      Wow. Just got to watching the Maui twitter woman’s video. Not subtle. Col mentioned something similar done to New Zealand recently in a massive storm or tsunami — deliberate obstruction by local and federal governments, as with Katrina and other disasters. Imho some of these may be pure malice and satanic sacrifices but some appear experiments.. typical nazi live tests to see how subjects cope to the existential, the inhuman, on their own. Coping mechanisms, etc.. So others can be better destroyed in the future, in similar circumstances?? Like drone operator scum double tapping the victims, usually when emergency responders or samaritans come on the scene. The devils are inventive.

      Most appears straightforward work to clear the land of Deplorables. On second thought, Nero likely torched Rome himself! When did entitled criminal elites behave different?

      And when weren’t they torching prime land on islands? California? Australia? All attributed to climate change of course (local papers usually had coverage of pyromaniacs or unusual and unnatural burn patterns). BLM / antifa burning down and wiping out centers of US cities were similar “investments in redevelopment” too.

      Is this what they are reduced to? Torching their captive populations? They’re being beaten back and incinerated like Ukies elsewhere…

      AHH, look at the trajectory for Europe alone (now for the US and Canada as well). War everywhere Global South and Africa and East, so that the WASP population is overrun and REPLACED by a different peoples, through fleeing the war circumstance or simply having to become refugees and fleeing as refugees.

      This is a replacement – a vast population replacement to keep the Kings and Queens and those of varied and grossly offensive sexual habits on their thrones.

      Look at the sheer cruelty to those that flee – they die in boatloads full with never anything said. Syria is trying to bring refugees back, but they cannot, because they are denied the opportunity through sanctions and theft of their own resources while the refugees are dying in refugee camps all over the area.

      There are still those Anglo Saxons that believe we are overpopulated, and they take every little bit of license to kill a few or a few thousands. The Ukraine, whatever else it is, is a sacrifice zone. The Palestinians are sacrificial lambs. While one is killing the populations, you may as well do it with a little fun for yourself and test your weapons and what is wrong with making some money in the process really?

      The breakaway from this human sacrifice is what we are talking about with the move to multipolarity.

      The deep tones of the music playing in the background is that of human sacrifice.

      Allow me a moment of sheer intemperate and desperate frustration. It does not happen often but the next fellow that talks about the ‘death of competence’ in the West, I think I’m going to attack. Yes, the talkers are incompetent, but there is an extremely competent intelligence behind that. We may deeply enjoy the victories that come our way, but these are usually temporary, because this intelligence does not give up. What did Li Shangfu say this morning .. The Road is Paved with Feet.

      Well said. Kindred spirits! I am sad at the intelligent folks who continue to attribute it to incompetence ad nauseam (for 500 years?!) It is evil calculation that fronts drooling fools. But the template persists. But it is being dealt with, slowly but surely.

      Yes the war is overwhelming and ever spreading. It is insane. It shakes faith at God that such evil is permitted to exist. As you say, in plain view.

      I was reflecting in last week how war is renewed in Africa in particular. As you said, right after the Africa-Russia Summit, as a point of demonstration. “You can make plans of development for the future, but we can burn down your present. Got it?” Absolute beasts.

      I wish South was not so ornery and still around. He was good at analyzing Summits and their tallies. How many of the 17 Heads of State who went to St. Petersburg subsequently had insurgency and terrorism or war break out??

      Ethiopia is most shocking. Almost overnight, the Amhara tribe rose up and started warring! They’re the biggest tribe at almost 25% of their 100+M population… An absolute catastrophe. This is the HQ of the AU, leader of East Africa and Chinese gateway into central africa, etc.. one of the gems of Africa. Being eviscerated.

      Sudan not only burns, it worsens. One of my Sudanese colleagues was in near tears, unable to go home or evacuate relatives as borders blocked and no functioning embassies.. a war driven by UAE on one side and Egypt on the other.. Tripoli, Libya, detonated again, after they had asked for Russian help in the Summit and promised to support Niger. Uganda under new economic sanction siege war.

      Nigeria itself implodes with an army helicopter shot down by insurgents with a total of nearly 30 soldiers killed in just last three days (and crazy Agent Tinubu wants to invade elsewhere!). Btw, this was in a province of Nigeria called Niger (map) not the country of Niger to the very north! 😅 Confusing eh?

      Kenya has worsening protests over tax raises, relentless, with recent killings. Extremist upticks in Mali, Burkina and Niger border (on cue by Anglo French curators). Congo fighting insurgents. Cape Town South Africa had taxi-strike that turned violent, and mass shootings elsewhere (how much juiced by usual suspects to darken BRICS summit in a week?) And on and on. Soul crushing. Too many conflicts to count!

      Is all the last efforts of the money printers going into no holds barred demonic gangsterism and genocidal rampage, while they still have influence worldwide?? They still have access to the minds of most youth. This is a huge national security problem, likely fueling it. Burkina just outlawed porn after French media. But do they have the tools to block the western internet??

      And the good side plays nice and takes its sweet time.

      I dont think it’s simply replacement of whites. It is mass culling everywhere. Absolute beasts. Most Africans today may be that quaint term “internally displaced persons” — refugees inside their own nation, or the nearest safe land. Do you know there are right now 300,000 Nigerian refugees sheltering in southern Niger from Boko Haram and warlords in northern Nigeria?! Nigeria itself is as stable and unbroken as Pakistan.

      Every day I read about many African migrants thrown into the desert between Tunisia and Libya, without food or water. Many by the satanic Tunisian gov (run by Erdogan’s Muslim Brotherhood, paid by EU to do so). Maybe more die in this Sahara desert than crossing the Med. A pregnant woman interviewed about her ordeal at hands of Tunisians just two day ago.

      This is unrestricted warfare on all humanity.

      I have just come across a real world example of the ‘intelligence’ that I was mentioning. Some would call it evil, but I think that is perhaps too limited in thinking. Perhaps not all of us, but at least I was astounded when I saw the size of the current modern day nazi infestation – I mean, we all thought the nazi’s were militarily destroyed and the few of them left over, are not a problem. Now, we see they are everywhere and it is a real problem. So, here is a current example of this intelligence and it is not stupid.

      The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman:

      Kyodo News: We learned that Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida sent a ritual offering to the Yasukuni Shrine in a private capacity today. Also, Cabinet minister Sanae Takaichi paid a visit to the Yasukuni Shrine. Do you have any response?

      “Wang Wenbin: Seventy-eight years ago today, on August 15, 1945, Japan accepted the Potsdam Proclamation and announced unconditional surrender. The Chinese people, together with the people of the world, defeated the Japanese militarist aggressors and fascism. It was a decisive battle between justice and evil, between light and darkness, and between progress and reaction. This great victory will forever be remembered in the history of the Chinese nation and the pursuit of justice for all humanity.

      The Yasukuni Shrine, where World War II Class-A war criminals are honored, is a spiritual tool and symbol of the wars of aggression launched by Japanese militarists. The negative move of Japanese political leaders on the issue of the Yasukuni Shrine once again shows the Japanese side’s erroneous attitude toward historical issues. The Chinese side has lodged solemn démarches to the Japanese side and stated its stern position.

      I need to stress that earnestly facing up to and deeply reflecting on the history of aggression is an essential prerequisite for Japan to restore and develop normal relations with its Asian neighbors after World War II. We urge the Japanese side to earnestly draw lessons from history, stick to the path of peaceful development, take concrete measures to make a clean break with militarism and avoid further losing the trust of its Asian neighbors and the international community.”

      We have still a major problem with what we call fascism. From a Machiavellian sense, good and evil are pragmatic and spell out the consequences of politics – good or evil or both combined are the means to an end, and the end always is the acquisition and maintenance of absolute power.

      We still have that business of acquisition of absolute power going on – and this is probably the most major ‘Covid’ of humanity – some of us have the virus, and others do not, but the virus is by no means dead. OK, then we have to go onwards from here, and understand the ability to defend oneself for one, lives probably within the same virus – as far as we know today. And then it becomes complicated.

      amarynth, dear… the Hebrew ” Timshel “, “thou mayest [triumph over evil]” Goodness also cannot give up, and in order to be “goodness” cannot use unjust methods. This is irritating, I grant (!)

      They tell me that the story, first of Jacob, and then in the New Testament of Jesus at that well, is allegorical/political history of one nation accepting another as superior…at the well. Seen that-a-way Luna 25 ties Soviet to Now Russia to the “digging of a well” (it’s about water and other nifty stuff) to the commanding height…what remain is the realization of the “samaritan” fellas an’ gals and whatevers that the ground has shifted. I imagine Luna 25 mission to be greatly symbolic in this historic period. Of course that’s assuming that they find treasure! (I have no doubts). China also is “digging lunar wells”, as everyone knows. Ultimately that reality sinks into even diseased minds. Sun Tsu advice comes to mind… (cunning commies! It’s not fair! )

      ahh, I expect Micheal Paranti would agree about Nero. So, fwiw, do I. Such people see the poor as lice. If they are lice-like, then why is that? This line of inquiry is closed to the august minds of the powerful…I mentioned the logical train from abolition to rente economics…ahem. We do seem to witness the natural results of inadequate resistance to the rackets, not much different from Frank Sheeran’s old pals and comrades  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Sheeran   and of course what’s a real-estate-arson job on Maui, mere slum clearance, after the job in New York, eh?

      …………

      The Fukushima affair.. I think there is parallel to Michael Hudson’s dictum about debts, those that can’t be paid…don’t get paid…and a vast tank farm of hot stuff and aged nicely simmered bouillabaisse that can’t be kept and can’t be cleaned is going to get…

      Dear AHH, in re to the video, according to Linh Dinh’s recent essay the Music industry is now brazenly producing Satanic videos. The latest “it” music video, mentioned in his article, is totally repugnant and abhorrent to one’s mental well-being.
      https://linhdinh.substack.com/p/horror-farce-from-afar
      “Since I left the US for good five years ago, I can only observe it from a distance, thank God. Yesterday, I learnt about Doja Cat, the Satanic music industry’s new darling.

      Vigilant Citizen, “One way of identifying a current industry “it girls” is by the fact that they’re often draped in red. Appropriately enough, Doja’s latest single is titled Paint the Town Red. Even more appropriately enough, the song is all about sacrificing one’s soul to be in the good graces of the industry.”

      It doesn’t matter if there’s no actual Satan, his total evilness is embraced by those who shape Western culture, and they’re not subtle about this. The West has become openly Satanic.”

        Thx Sudhi. Hard to disagree with either our eloquent Vietnamese scribe or Vigilant Citizen. The craziness is simply too much for anyone normal. I ran away from USA for similar reasons, about a decade earlier than him, to preserve my sanity.

        And it isn’t just new “stars,” but established ones too. Remember in the Cafe we had a field day with the deaths surrounding the Travis Scott music scene in Texas (his venue was even shaped like the gaping mouth of Moloch which used to serve as portals of child sacrifice in the ancient Levant during biblical times). Egypt recently refused to admit him. He went onwards to Italy, and guess what happened to concert goers?

        Karma is God’s hickory switch, and almost always applied with a cosmic chortle. Things come around when a certain excess cargo of cognitive dissonance breaks the brains of those just struggling to carry on. The country has had enough — enough walking-talking hypocrisies, enough trips laid on it, enough Tik-tok lectures from the nose-rings-for-lunch-bunch. We’re at the end of something and the beginning of something new. As in: an ass-beating is coming down.

        If the crazies call an emergency, would any in Global Majority even bat an eye? Like that saying, “suppose if they gave a war and nobody came?” How much respect remains? Who would allow the crazies to destroy even more of their economies after covid and smo food & fuel shenanigans?

        What is being done to Ukies is unholy. Are the ones incinerated on the Steppes the lucky ones? This expose in Israel reveals several innovative solutions to the old problem of how to preserve organs for transplantation. Docs have a few hours to get them in the new body, if they’re lucky. Now what is the true strength of the US military?? Logistics. This has now been harnessed to get them to the occupied Holy Land, using Ukies own bodies as “the container.” Who will care what’s done to nazis when they arrive? And even if they’re dragooned innocents, who will tell? They could merely have a scratch, but enter this pipeline from hell… this is worse than Nosferatu and any horror flick.
        war has many midwives! I recall David Rockefeller almost made it to his seventh heart. Some love this life so much…

        Btw, if it’s true the Russians blew the Ukie tunnels through the Carpathians, it is an excellent [passive-aggressive] escalatory move. Ukies are nearly spent & West demilitarized anyhow, and in conjunction with blasting most ports, the Ukie lands are being sealed.. current moves to force cargo ships into the Black Sea will not compensate given vigilance (boarding & inspections) and ever fewer places to dock. So NATO’s bluff is being called. Its down to Poland to enter the fire. And the theater would be in Galicia, without the kid gloves of the SMO.

        This news about leaving the WHO and WTO is certainly in the works, but  currently appears a psyop Hal is running. He runs it every 2 months or so. If you parse it carefully, he recycles the same TASS statement by Pyotr Tolstoy from 17 May 2022.

        Why do his handlers do it? To remove the soup before it has simmered sufficiently? Prevent the simmering altogether? They know Russia leads in all matters of the new world system being constructed; they seek to isolate her. Good luck chumps!

        “alienation due to rapid change acts as a carrier of potential conflict from one generation to the next.”

        This was the core thesis of Gonzalo about Vicious Vicky and her cohort’s grandparents evicted from Bessarabia by the Russians.. Among the root causes of their psychopathic hatred of Russia. But these specimens are so toxic and full of bile that Russia appears to merely furnish an excuse to indulge in such red-hot malignancy, like a focusing lens. Many said the US regretted the demise of the USSR, and the crazies appear to need Russia even more.

      Hal, obligingly, recounted last night how the political police for whom he worked asked him to applaud the murder of a judge on his (then?) website…in order to identify, to call out, the defective criminals and in order to achieve some [political] objective of his employers, such as entrapment, and we assume, finding more informers…looks nice on the cop weekly activity report, eh?  He said this before he went on to say “newsie” stuff. I thought this most honest, in the funny ways of things. Understand, for me it’s a cynical amusement, nothing he says is anything but salted, even when there’s meat. What interests me is the audience and the implied agendas. I listen to WW2 broadcasts, and real time radio chatter and ham radio chatter for similar reasons. Listening, not suspending disbelief, with the skeptical editorial eye/ear… speaking of… Bear in mind that I live in the world, but not much “of the world”… it’s all history for me. It’s not “political”, not in the least. Old Candide?

      I agree that Lira did outline a transmission principle, as he defined it. What I have in mind….not same, maybe similar. general principle, not specific case (See PNP NPN transistors) Carrier, as a passive “hole”…   Estrangement/time being in the nature of a machine, a telegraph, that can materialize effects in the future.  (prayer for the gonzo)

      It’s a developing idea. Example: Granny grew up in (mostly) honest earned wealth before the empire, Grand Tour honeymoon in pre-w1 Europe and northern Africa. This lady passed to me the pre-imperial memories. (her observations did not accord with the canon of my school days) Now then, some 120-140 years later, in the fuzzy sense of time’s memories, hers exist juxtaposed to now in her grandson. Since 1900, or so, and in fits, ebbs, starts, and episodes of increasing frequency, terrible fast Change. Much by violence. The result is that a carrier transmitted shared (or even individual) memories in proportion to median age and rate of change etc (there’s an equation I bet)…transmitted quietly with no evident effect, really no physical existence, no deliberate purpose, transported estrangement through time.

      So? That’s another line, but it seems reasonable to expect that some people might be motivated by the “delta” ‘tween memory and now. They might act, possibly in lard way, probably in small ways… If so, then the carrier would be said to have released its cargo. I note than in times of slow change, this manifestation is a stabilizing feature in human groups, while in times of rapid change it births conflict and sometimes violence.

      I want to re-read Uncle Karl on his definitions…maybe this is old stuff. The canon says there are four kinds. It seems that there is, as well, a “meta estrangement” or a 5th kind. It’s unclear to me if this is #5 or a meta. Old fella grey cells slow, and whimsical too..but Karl’s estrangements are all immediate… so I’m tending to the view that there is a “magical” meta-estrangement principle that is running so hot just now that the wires are burning, so to say. I think in Global South Peoples this “E-telegraph” is white hot, no pun implied!

      Note that transmission of estrangement by film, fake memories, undermines the natural “tribal” transmission. Is case for “censorship” a variable and proportional discretion guided by custom and informed logic… perhaps as my Friend AHH applies to “Naked Lunch” and so on. But the argument is bidirectional, even though non symmetrical.

      Withal, I’ll make a few jottings…we’ll see if it’s interesting.

      Yes listening to radio chatter and old unpolished broadcasts is most informative. I suppose there’s an auditory equivalent to “seeing is believing..” — that nothing trumps hearing or seeing mischief first hand.

      The story of Moses comes to mind: he heard it first hand from his Lord while on the Mount that a portion of his flock had strayed, worshiping the Golden Calf. He stayed calm. However when he descended and saw for himself this blasphemy, he THEN became enraged and threw down the Torah tablets and grabbed his brother in accusation.. (and all this mere short weeks after the stupendous miracle of the parting of the Red Sea!! What does this say about human nature, memory spans, and degrees of gratitude? To be fair, the Israelites had been enslaved cruelly for 400 years by Pharaonic Egypt and lost agency and will and were susceptible to mindwashing, just like Europe and West-influenced nations today.)

      There’s no alternative to experiencing it. And why the foremost target of this new era were senior citizens, offed in shameless industrial quantities since covid was rolled out. They need to cut the savvy umbilical cords to the Past, in order to maintain ongoing Narratives.

      And how many of the memories are false, implanted? 

      Indeed, terrible fast Change is being experienced all around. And no human appears in control. Mere jetsam in the drain.

      Mrs P remarked in discussion of the transmission of estrangement that if (by magic) there were in times of rapid change, no memory from one moment to the next then a master might be free to do as he wished, but soon be unseated due to irrational and self destructive actions.

      The Sergei Naryshkin speech (ref above) called down Heaven –  and Revelations had a tiny cameo when he spoke of “beast” in the same context of Man is made in God’s image... Born oct ’54 they say. In Soviet time they had, you’ll recall, this idea of creating the “Soviet Man”. Canonically this effort to create a Soviet Man failed. I disagree. They made some, and I think the effort paid out very very well! Very well indeed. Oh, our “Comrade” Mr Hal said he agreed with every word. He probably does, but he’s still the same guy.

      Manifestly these persons are driven by the “fatal flaw” of cacoethes. At this time they are literally a dynamic (and dramatic!) “engine” Most people know to stop when everything they do gives undesired results. These cannot know, and cannot stop. A classic tragedy.

In their place, before “our” eyes, every action results in products vastly and increasingly different from “our” expectations and beliefs… (Calling Comrade Brecht…) thus in junta HQ land a blinding and overwhelming verfremdungseffekt… Their delusions are proximally, I suspect, a dynamic product of their own actions… this seems to be in the way of a classical catastrophe. Excessive positive feedback with massive distortion, and they respond by increasing gain…pretty soon amplifier no work.

      Returning our “selves” to the physical realm, ahem…Considering that the people in the matter are in reality functionaries, well, one soon becomes quite lost in wild speculation – there’s inertia, latency, but this blinding “world made strange” is obviously expanding throughout the ruling “elite” factions of westieland.

      The Naryshkin speech is must watch.

      Yes, the conclusion of the foreign intelligence chief Naryshkin on BRICS is telling too: “…and no animal in the world will be able to destroy this building!” 

      It means much of the ongoing FUD of BRICS in western driven media is just that: vile FUD. He must have data showing not just its tremendous potential but actual proven metrics. If anything, the secretiveness of Russians and Asians undermines this construct and plays into ongoing divisive enemy narratives.

      Note he used the dismissive term “animal” to refer to the West at the end, after pointed referral to their delusions, degeneracy, gender confusion, etc.. in stark contradiction to wholesome tradition worldwide. An animal could be said to be the base creature stripped of spirit, a fully sensuous beast living day by day, without agency except by hands of demons riding them as horses… this is an escalation beyond Medvedev’s mockery, no?

      A sad dismissal and consignment to History, of an irretrievably fallen civilization.. Implication: to dealt with as against any dangerous rabid animal roaming the streets.

      And he said all this is front of premier military staff of the Global South! Setting the parameters of interaction with those called on to plan for and discharge the inevitable punishment of extremely brazen and wayward “animals.”

      Good Lord! A mighty storm cometh in every quadrant, Sea and corner of Earth..

      A little bit of music from China sent to me from the Chinese grouping that they allow me to hang around in.  The story goes that Mao decided not to take his son’s body back to China. So, he was buried in North Korea together with all other sacrifice Chinese soldiers.

      Mao wrote: 青山处处埋忠骨头 (Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green hills)

      Watch “Moranbong Band – Chinese songs (중국노래)” on YouTube

      The first song, short, tells us of the deep hatred that shakes me, every time I encounter it.

      The second song, story, tells of Mao’s son.

      An historian analyzing the rhetoric and “factual matter” that this agency of occult or grey province insinuates into the aethers creates a vast illusion. In W2 the Brits had a (then) vast enterprise doing the same thing, but that was then ,right? Ahem. The W2 job was aimed at the top German leadership, much by turned spies, some by maskirovka, some by radio. This time the target is also the enemy, the westpeoples, deplorables, mostly. Nobody else is stupid enough to buy into the rot.

      The alarm? Well “Ruski is facing defeat and it is feared…”   …and so forth…more strident that any I have previously heard.

      Lies always tell, after a while. Thinking Brit is rabid, more rabid than yanklandjunta. Maybe Brit send sapper with gadget blame evil Ruski… Senile cat get big ‘sprize?

      The BBC US paints a vast picture of inconsistencies and lies totally a tapestry the raveling and constant plaster over in/of which will surely bring very sudden change, – one way or another.

      The liver sausage messages it is fully into the Abyss for Deutschland! [by the satanic/illuminati law of inversion:] Germany will send troops to the Ukraine (or Poland)… The possessed loon had said the same with every prior wunderwaffe before gleefully sending them too.

      Good Lord. This is unsurvivable for Germany. Even worse fate than deindustrialization is on the table now. Even Younger Alex begins to suspect, saying yesterday or day before, the demented will keep escalating to nuclear war… If ever a compradore elite deserves to adorn lampposts, it is the current crop…

      Btw, Amarynth, I agree about likelihood of the dastardly to start something during BRICS Summit starting in three (3) days. Dunno what, as ECOWAS forces far from ready and assembled and girded up to suicide themselves in the desert and savanna of Niger.. Maybe they will slap on ECOWAS patches on NATO troops? And apply blackface?! How many “brothers” are in the French legion? Not enough I wager, at least in theater or not pushing up daises in Novorossiya. This all sounds like more bluff and vomit. Perhaps an optical offensive, as we’re used to in the Ukrainian TV war (from western perspective), just enough to distract the proceedings in South Africa.

      I also agree with duplicitous Moroccan elites’ bid to join BRICS. They are longterm lickspittles of Empire, and in bed with GCC royals and odious Muslim Brotherhood too. Macron sauntering into the BRICS Summit is less dangerous.. Perhaps talk from India to better define admission criteria, and to lengthen waiting term to weed out snakes, is warranted. The game afoot now: implode BRICS from within.

      Yes, unfortunately a conflagration is becoming more likely in Niger. I saw allegations the Junta leaders removed their families to Dubai and Burkina, and allow recruitment of mass militias to support the coming defense, indicating they expect invasion.

      Now Wagnerites arrived. The US preps to get its 1.5k Afrika Korps hostages outta the area? Or did Frenchie strike a deal and get Uncle to support him to stay? I doubt the latter. Short term benefits of cooperation are outweighed by longer term deepsixing of the French economy, critically dependent on massive inflow of African plunder.

      Maybe HT can comment, as I think you said live in Nairobi?? Kenya appears Exhibition A of failed African “leadership” underlying the successes of ongoing neocolonialism and why Plunder Inc works, generation after generation. The elites are easily corruptible. The very process of engaging in western democracy and rising to the top (floating to the top like stool?) creates control files on them. This is why many maintain, during the current lingering death-period of the Hegemon, that Juntas are the way forward in weaker countries. And even in the stronger nations, they need opposing deep states staffed with patriotic hard men and women technocrats that can handle the ebbs and flows of hybrid total war.

      Kenya has so much hope! Relative peace for decades. A business and cultural and international hub for its entire region. Balmy perfect weather and hospitable beautiful people, largely living in harmony. And its current President Ruto made such promising noise on dedollarization – buying Saudi and Emirati oil in local Shilling currency, and advocating a pan-African SWIFT replacement. But a wave of protests, crashing currency and liquidity, an instrumentalized Christian cult killing hundreds of its members, and the control files went to work…. He didn’t show up in St. Petersburg and now supports the ECOWAS Uncle Toms… It’s all about me, myself and I amongst most “democratic leaders” worldwide rubberstamped with approval by “the international community.”

      Africa, like Russia in 404, will have to earn true independence by force of arms. The Francophones of north, west and central Africa show the way.

      Just a note about Korea and the nice airplanes… see https://peacemaker.un.org/sites/peacemaker.un.org/files/KP%2BKR_530727_AgreementConcerningMilitaryArmistice.pdf

      specifically art II, para 13, section “c” and section “d”.

      The way that reads out, the parties have agreed that modernization of equipment in zone K is prohibited since 27 July 1953. That means Sherman tanks and M1 rifles, F86 sabre jets and MiG 15, Mosin Nagant bolt action rifles (some made before 1900!)

      These things, if the agreement were observed, would be available, mostly, either from special-built factories that do not exist, or from museums.

      In view of the actual modernization, the “agreement” is self-evidently a mere pause. From the standpoint of those aspiring to hold the pivots of Heartland in Zone K,  l’accord de 1953 permet à la guerre de continuer

      …………….

      404 > Calling 404 a State was not, is not, the same as 404 being a State. In a sense can it be that this error accounts for the conflict, misapprehension being a foundational principle of creating conflict? The case, I believe, for holding the view that 404 has never been a sovereign state, is a strong one.

      …………………….

      The recent events and statements from Rus with regard to Zone 404 and its future speak, to me anyway, whispers of what must follow the encapsulation of the Zone, what must take place outside the Zone. It being a highly dubious enterprise to “fix” 404 without also arranging certain matters outside…such as the expose of the germlabprogram implies very clearly. No fixum 404 without also fixum the entire “machine”.

      This may dovetail to note/question of ahh> “is it single-minded demonic spite to kill off Rummy’s “Old Europe,” or part of the unsaid negotiations with Russkie?? Russkie will be asking for the proverbial pound of flesh in return for what was/is forced to endure in 404… why not a gram or two of Sahara-grilled filet mignon as a preliminary offering of penance?

      A broken “garden” presents the option of fixin’ it. In Europe, and everywhere it needs weeding. In this process it seems that it’s the poor management of US Policies that create the opportunities to fix the Russian “near abroad” and indeed, to set the post war scene. This may take decades, but it moves very fast just now, eh?

        For sure 404 cannot be fixed without “arranging certain matters outside.” I suspect the denouement has been delayed precisely for this consideration, not so much the attrition of Ukies, which was completed for combat effective cadres long ago. It is a fine art, gauging when sufficient demilitarization has taken place, sufficient societal and economic implosion, sufficient isolation on the global commons, sufficient revulsion at the open satanic sacrifice of Ukies and germwar on mankind by the global commons, and sufficient demand for retribution on these human devils by the global commons, no?? I figure, soon, most will clamor for Russkies to finish off the Degenerates. It will come down to that.

        I unfortunately must disagree with the majority view “… a broken “garden” presents the option of fixin’ it. In Europe, and everywhere it needs weeding….” I agree with M Hudson’s view that the garden is all poisonous, intent on mass-suicide as eagerly as USUK, and that the future lies with the thriving jungle. There’s more weeds than useful growth atm. And the garden doesn’t have the luxury of decades to regrow.

      To show the abject servitude and criminality of ECOWAS, look at the very language they use: a particularly odious sub-specimen called Abdel-Fatau Musah (he looks like a minature cross-eyed toad), the bloc’s Commissioner for Political Affairs, Peace and Security, said, “ECOWAS had decided on “D-Day” for military action in Niger, adding that the member states had “agreed and fine-tuned what will be required for the intervention.”

      Where and when and by whom was the first “D-Day”?!! It was an Anglo-American invasion on French soil! Got it?? Niger is considered French soil atm! And masterminds do not hide the puppet strings holding up the ECOWAS doll.

      Who gave this fetid Uncle Tom the language? Frenchie or Uncle Sam? Perhaps Uncle mended fences and signals approval to Frenchie?? Regardless, the Satanists have a visceral and unending urge to mock, even as they themselves are attrited and circle the drain. What absolutely irredeemable losers. West African proxies are headed for same fate as Ukies!

      Sometimes the transmission distorts…weeding> “Therefore, the only way is the complete disposal of state machinery of the hostile country and absolute guarantees of loyalty for future. That can only be with Russia’s control over everything that happens & will happen in those territories… And we will achieve it.” Note “hostile country” is an open meaning. Recall that SSR Ukraine was under “complete control” but that the finefellas of the nazi sorts were supported by the “Greater Nazi” (Doug Valentine, et al, etc)…they rampaged raped burned and murdered despite Soviet hands. They still do, with more dope and more weapons and more money. So? Medvedev clearly remembers. The implication is global. Nobody will be able to water or plant nazi seed, anywhere.

      Recalling that “burning down” is a tactic open to opponent, Ripper Principle, so to say.  Some gardeners, after sterilizing one garden plot with a controlled burn, move to the next. Then, of course, one may plant flowers. It’s terrible. Unspeakable.

      It comes to mind that if there were no nazi seeds then there are implications about the socioeconomic form that would then exist. Clearly sortacommie with local ethnos and custom – so it seems to me. Mutipolar, if you like. And that the liquidation of fascism is implied by the goal of liquidating nazism. Mom was right!

      Yes dear emerson, RT is still infiltrated, as documented by Smoothie in latest video. It is a schizophrenic institution. Different heads compete and raise their profile at worst times (that’s what we’d expect 5th columns to do to support their side, no?)

      What is the second institution, after the tables of the moneychangers, which carpetbaggers seek to parasite within each target nation? The poets/elite influencers or since the printing press and modern communications, the media. So they will be devilishly hard to dislodge, like a 4-foot long tapeworm with suckers of steel…

      Simonyan is like Putin — the executive of a huge bloated bureaucracy spread over 11 time zones. It is a wack-a-mole process that’ll take decades to properly remove the sly saboteurs.

      The headchoppers: they were activated not just in Niger, but I read in Mali, Burkina, Libya, and even Nigeria. The entire region is being torched by the malice of the kind and benevolent usual suspects.

      As Mr P correctly notes, it’s a process — rebirth through fire. The extremists also are forced to out themselves, and their true allegiance and paymasters. The entire region will consolidate against them and wipe them out, as in Syria.

      And their numbers are minuscule in comparison! Empire is literally shredding and running out of its proxies everywhere. Russia has taught the principle of survival to all — “no MI6-mindwashed crazy, no problem.” And this is not Hyperbole dear emerson. As with borders, the British created the worst cults and extremists extant today in both Christendom and Islam.

      And the west-influenced media covers for them. For example, all quote the 17 Nigeriens killed in the recent dastardly ambush. How many finished the story that the national army killed 100 in return??! And continue to hunt them and will exact the same attrition the Ukies face?!

      The desert marauders will not last long against unified national armies. This is why Nigeria and ECOWAS are so central to all western plans.

      Even that will not help them for long. A disintegrating and corrupt Nigeria does not have staying power nor the mandate and internal support. The Francophones need to be steadfast, keep their nerve, stay unified, and they will wipe out the stooge Anglophones and hireling ECOWAS.

        Well said. So it is between such committed co-conspirators who give it all, like a married couple which over the decades become almost the same, in sync and harmony, no? They start to approach each other in nearly everything.

        The Anglo-American elite gave so much, with such bottomless earnestness, in order to defeat the Great Enemy (Russia), that they became the Ukraine. One becomes one’s proxy after a while. Adopts their ways, mannerisms, train of thought, style of committing crimes, etc. And the Ukies are a uniquely ugly Folk. Racist, proudly ignorant, fully immersed in delusional Wonderland, lacking in self-preservation, and so on. It is sad. The cherry on top for America’s funeral procession…

        Total War, which western nations have practiced since at least Bismarck’s Prussia, requires total commitment of the aggressor. Everything’s subsumed to the War, including the emotions, regimentation, privation, aspiration and planning of the Great People. And so everything’s become like 404. Totally ugly.

        What’s absolutely dying on the deep fertile Steppes of Novorussiya is really Project America and all its equally genocidal and hate-filled little Eurovassals latched to its desiccated and fruitless teats, like 20 piglets in two rows.

      Interesting development in Niger. The revolutionary gov was careful to focus on France and not to chew on too many enemies at once. “First we take Frenchie, then we take USUK down.” 

      Now I see first reports of protesters calling out the US and demonstrating in front of a US base.. is it spontaneous? Or a calculated move by Junta seeing the direction of events and having little to lose by coddling the Master Thief? It could be counterpressure, to keep ECOWAS at bay for a while longer.

      And this occurred at same time of arrival of a new US Ambassador. She could be a standin for Vicious Vicky or the US Ambassador to Moscow; she has the same pleasant vibes

      Yes, Dear Emerson, “404” might better be understood as a disease, and less a place. It’s a wasting disease, and it stinks. Many people saw the contradictions, Melville for one (see The Confidence Man). When Kennan wrote his “long telegram” he was describing two near mirror State apparatuses, not one. Szilard noted the symmetry with some sarcasm in Dolphin. Offensively crude and blunt, it’s even said (quoted) by Lowell Thomas https://archive.org/details/countlucknersead00thom/page/n9/mode/2up   It’s implicit throughout, and of course the stories are suspect in tone and detail – but in W1, the Brit Agent at Fiji said to the intrepid ship-wrecked Luckner the spy “the war will only help the colored races” – (1917-1918) and according to memory…the precise episode is in there. Thomas’ rhetoric is subtle. Beware. It’s a whimsical thing to imagine if … if FDR had dropped off while Wallace was VP, to speculate – what if Lindbergh  and the “isolationists” had been more effective… But we note the names, mostly publicly available, of those American cryptonazis who helped the European nazis, whose crimes were known to the State, and who were never indicted, not even accused…their treason prospered…how about that!  We all know the “prosper” quote… It seems that the effect has created a State at war with the people, and an institutional terror within the rulers…class division of a somewhat heated and dangerous nature. Really rather pathetic, eh?

      BTW, Luckner was only marginally competent with a sailing ship, but very fine at small boats… Like Capt’n Bligh – they made long voyages in small boats. In some obscure publications (mostly in German) Lucker claims to have planted explosives in loading ships, working as an undercover saboteur… His biographies are fascinating stories and, if we filter the agenda, they reveal a very different Time…seadler 1917

      Best! P

      The Empire squirms on the horns of a dilemma. The 404 war is an absolute drain, denying preferred traditional responses elsewhere. ECOWAS barks, and its master, prudently circumspect to date, may be equally toothless. A toast to the War Machine of generals Shoigu and Gerasimov!

      Good video, summarizing the local color to this point. The Junta offered ECOWAS to free Bazoum in return for rolling back sanctions. This is a wise move. The people are suffering.  He can still be kept in-country on house arrest for a while. And it may provide a face-saving mechanism for the ECOWAS hirelings to withdraw from aggression altogether, as freeing Bazoum was their first demand.

      The lack of current US capacity, and distraction on other three fronts in Europe, East Asia, and Syria, and the arrival of Wagner, and the growing Nigerien civilian militias (~ 50,000 people recruited a few days ago, in the first tranche of several), and the growing dissolution of Nigerian army itself (!!), makes it more and more foolhardy for any invasion.

        Bazoum knows where the ECOWAS bodies are buried.  That is why they want him freed!  But by now, he has spilled the beans for sure.

      Mr P, i have not read The Confidence Man, & here i’d imagined my days of reading literary fiction were through.   😉  beautiful thoughts & words, MrP & dear dear ahh, perhaps our world, our global globe, will in time return to God’s garden.

      when i was young my most enduring thought was that we chose our parents, our place & birth.  i remember viewing a very large book which magically upon each page’s turning revealed a theatre, a scene & the actors engrossed in playing out their roles, only a microsecond & the page flipped to another scene another world another set of characters, & the pages turning in a blur until suddenly for no reason i said yes & the page drew me in & i was part of the scene, acquainting myself with the actors.  for much of my youth i wondered why i had chosen these people, my parents, when i could’ve chosen any other.  i came to believe that with these people i was granted the very ground to nurture what it was my soul most needed to evolve.   & my purpose was simple, for while i may not noticeably affect events i could assume the task of witnessing & holding faith through this our Time’s great chrysalis.   & here we are joined actively pursuing truth while holding faith.  i am blessed, thank you.

      An editorial by an acclaimed theatre director Neelam Mansingh Choudhry :
      “Brecht and breaking the fourth wall in theatre”
      https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/comment/brecht-and-breaking-fourth-wall-in-theatre-536409
      “The fourth wall is a term that refers to an imaginary wall separating the audience from the performer. This invisible wall makes the actors alert to the presence of the audience. In this, the audience becomes a voyeur, a sort of Peeping Tom watching life unfold on the stage but invisiblising himself/herself in the process. This notion was flipped around by playwright Bertolt Brecht, who used it to challenge western theatre conventions by appealing to the audiences’ reasoning power rather than their emotions. He dismantled the illusion created in theatre by revealing the technical and dramaturgical mechanisms behind the scenes, such as the source of light that was previously hidden by black curtains. The actors spoke in the third person, sometimes directly to the audience, emphasising the constructed nature of the performance. Brecht sought to always be alert to the presence of an audience. He would show the multiple ways of revealing reality, challenging established facts and questioning constantly.”

      Yeah as we anticipated, military activity, no matter how spotty and rushed and inadequate, may be unrolled against Niger during the BRICS Summit. The demented have their time tested rituals and ways.

      A two-fer optical offensive. Like Japan dumping its Fukushima nuclear waste water on 24th too (incidentally the Independence Day of toxic 404) — it’s all about stealing the thunder from BRICS Summit.

      Even the mad Sültan Erdogan messages he’s going to Putin today, tiring of waiting for him to accept invitation to Turkey! What will be next, to blanket cover the western MSM?? A new Trump or Hunter scandal?

      The African Union also chose this day to suspend Niger (!!) and to warn against foreign actors (ie. Wagner) and countries from getting involved. Attaboy, earned your 30 pieces of silver, and made mockery of African solidarity during this seminal African BRICS Summit

      The saga of the Chef is beyond this simple man. What is clear though it has become exquisitely sumptuous. Turned from a putative agent of internal Russian destabilization to the Emancipator of Afrique! And the troll agent takes to it like flies to sh##.

      Ohhhh, the Imperial gnashing of vampiric dentures! The Russian Stiletto is turned inside the chest cavity so deftly. This is absolutely unlivable. Empires perished in the past due to lesser humiliation. And our intrepid Chef, another unblinking Leningrader, continues his merry trolling on social media, proclaiming Russian Greatness and deeds to come against nazi Afrika Korps 2.0…

      This Moldovan traitor nicely summarizes the predicament of most countries officially registered as sovereign at the UN meat processing plant. Shameless dual-citizens who plague their people as foreign agents. Herein is the key: (1) a dual passport to the West, and (2) an assured rats-line. These scum help prolong the global oppression and the agony of dying Hegemony itself. This is why as Russia did, it is essential to put into law forbidding dual citizens to hold public office. And many of these crooks, increasingly women, will get the Mussolini treatment in the near term ahead.

      And this is how Empires do it. Send soft signals, using the flayed corpse of former traitors, to current traitors like Agent Tinubu… What is a former traitor, but a used condom?? And remember they did this to Pakistan’s Imran Khan a few years ago too. Sent a signal via a corruption court case of one of his direct Pakistani associates, whereupon he perfectly corrected to the required course. It was done to Kazakhs too iirc.

      Bribery… longtimeago with bigbigcompany I was in position to drink with both buyer and seller. For a while it was fun. Many bribes were offered. Not a boy scout or saint, and also strongly averse to entering into a stupid criminal relationship with men I rather liked… so I never did. Mayor LaGuardia, formerly iirc, bigboss city purchasing dept… gave good advice for men when they’re offered a bribe… “If you hesitate you’re saying you’ll do it. After that it’s a question of how much.”  I have probably muddled the quote, but the Mayor was right. So? So I asked a powerful rich “seller” how the business of bribes was done…I might have been 28… He said, simple, make happy chatter and let him speak, after a while he’ll tell you what he wants, sex? No problem, what sort how often? Money? No problem, whatever he wants I get 1/2, and I tell him that. Some guys straight out request a bribe. He had a clan of beautiful whores for a while as sales girls…but it got out of hand, he said. I bet it did! Had a vast villa in San Marino richphukneighborhood.  I miss the fella.

      What happened to German nazis in W2 Africa … well, funny question. After messing about in terrible death dancing with Brit and Yank, Afrika Korps surrendered and went to the USA. No kidding. Of course many died first, trail markers, and not all of them stayed in the US. The prequel to Paperclip. The other nazis in Africa? South African weirdos imho, – well, they went on changing clothes until they ran the country for, what 45 years, and it’s said they built atomic bombs…even tested one or two with their nazis pals from the “Middle East” Vela incident. I knew a Canadian fella that danced the Afrika Korps under Montgomery – said Monty was “intensely disliked and incompetent”

      Two statesmen with considered perspectives who see calmer seas ahead:

      (1) MKB: “Niger revolution takes Bonapartist turn.”

      Key excerpts:
      “…. Niger’s coup leaders are making overtures to the United States and keeping the Russian military contractors, Wagner PMC, at arm’s length.”
      I disagree. This may be dissembling. If you parse the words of Zeine, the prime minister-designate of Niger (and Finance Minister technocrat of prior regime), he doesn’t exclude them altogether. Maybe limited to the border regions with Mali for now? Or a card to be kept and later returned with peace? They would be foolish, given immense threats on their necks, and the sordid Imperial history, to not use this life-preserving mechanism.. these appear soft words said in order to not humiliate an Empire in agony, whilst keeping a gun at hand for any contingency.

      “…. The speed with which Washington deployed Kathleen FitzGibbon, an ace Africa hand with intelligence background, as its new ambassador to Niamey signals diplomacy as the preferred course.
      …. the [US state department] readout limits itself to call for the release of the ousted president and his family members and ignored the earlier specific demand regarding his reinstatement..
      …. Niger faces a “messy” situation rather than a revolutionary situation. Perhaps, certain Bonapartist elements are discernible — for which, of course, there is plenty of blame to go around, as Africa’s elites and their failures are a major factor, not only because public opinion associates them with France but due to twin malaise of a poverty of political ideologies and populism, apart from the rise of new generations of young people frustrated by a status quo that, in their eyes, is of France’s making..
      …. the threat of Russia filling the vacuum is overstated and should not justify Western intervention..
      …. General Tchiani, who heads the putschists, is not going to give up power. On the other hand, he no longer repeats that former president Bazum will be put on trial..
      …. there is great uncertainty regarding the actual intentions of the protagonists. Is the junta, which has class or corporate interests, seeking some concessions to save face or is merely buying time?”

      (2) The conciliatory words of the ECOWAS mediatory mission leader General Abdulsalami Abubakar, Nigeria’s last military head of state.

      So what gives? Perhaps MKB sees what the slick Junta wants “others” to see too. He is getting a better feel for this conflict now. However, his professional brief and comfort level is with Eurasia, not this neck of the woods. That being said, it is apparent to all now, this is an organized Junta, with apparently solid advisors, having learned from prior bitter failures, and has staying power. It has good nerves, and many allies around the world piling in….

      But are they sell-outs, holding out for a slightly better cut of the plundering of their own? This is the premise of his interpretation of Zeine’s NYT article. Highly unlikely. What’s the saying about the medium being the message? And sending soothing imagery to raving barbarians who want to see fairy tales??

      The pudding’s in steps already taken:

      • the building federation and union state with the other three Juntas,
      • immediate halting of French uranium and gold concessions, and booting their troops
      • open contact with Wagner in Mali
      • rapid movement of Mali/Burkina troops/planes into Niger,
      • aid convoys (not only containing food) from neighboring Burkina,
      • coordination via Mali and Burkina and Algeria and Libya with Moscow and VVP in person!
      • Russian flurry of movements into extended region on the three sides of Niger (northward Algeria/Libya, westward Mali/Burkina, and southeastward CAR),
      • and the three years transition period to return to civilian rule….

      these words by Zeine and Junta rather appear a cute rope-a-dope, and well advised, to confound a gathering pack of hyenas. And it is a costless public fig leaf to a Hegemon in agony, consumed in many other fronts elsewhere, aching to savage and sack China, whilst loading and holding a steady gun in his direction, just in case.

      Regardless, and we will see the truth soon enough, the good news is the utter contempt for and abandonment of pobre Frenchie by Uncle Slaughter. This informs recent frenzied solo French attempts to attack Niger via Algerian airspace.. By its lack of urgently needed action for these type of imperial policing missions, the Hegemon has doomed French posterity in West Africa.

      Oh boy, this is getting good. For those who know US history, you are aware of the infamous Cook County around Chicago, the state of Illinois. This city and its Boss, Mayor Daly, had a system which would have made NYC and its shamelessly corrupt Tammany Hall and Boss Tweed blush.

      Boss Daley helped get JFK elected in 1960 by finding names for the Democratic rolls in their graveyards. iirc, a young and highly enterprising local socialite named Hillary Rodham was canvassing for votes that very election in that very city! Where did her resolute footsteps and fearsome forays, harbinger of many dashing pursuits to come, take her?? 🤔😎

      Anyhow, it appears Cook County played a key role in electing another President! They impact the ongoing drama in Niger and the Sahel. Agent Tinubu’s academic records, under heavy scrutiny and dispute, are unraveling… and it appears he is a Dual Citizen, having become naturalized US citizen sometime in 1970s…..

      Ah! I once went camping with a pretty Chicago gal, one with a rich daddy…she’d had dinner with the Mayor once or twice! such tales she told! I believe Seymour in Dark Side of Camelot tells of how one bought rural elections in many places by the simple expedient of an honorarium to the Sheriff…sometimes $100 would do the trick. Always bear in mind when bribing cops, they’re dishonest…so? So maybe no stay bribed. Yes, you’ve got him, but he’s got you, and a gun… Honorarium to preachers might have been in there too…the hand of Charity, right? (Recalling Oh Brother and “Big Dan” the bible salesman… )

      Comrade Chef and the affray aloft… I stopped by the waterin’ hole at the Crossroads Club…an “affiliated club”, as they say…and those fellas were chatting about how best to do away with people and get away with their crime – all hypothetical of course! The sheriff was shootin’ pool with a cutie while the conversation went on… Sheriff was listening. He interrupted:

      “Boys, it amounts to this”, the sheriff said, “it’s very important that there be many other guys who benefited and who could have done it, and it helps if the investigation can be controlled.

      I wonder what strange plans might have been laid out by the delusion-obsessed nazis… did they imagine the People Would Rise Up in response? If so, that didn’t work. Wet squib.  I see a claim that Der Chef’s wiki page said he was dead by Ruski missile about an hour before the burn. Maybe true, dunno https://theduran.locals.com/member/quantumroam

      Sometime stuff just happens. Over the cop-o-tronic it’s said that a fella managed to shoot himself through both legs, and he’s driving in to metropolitan Anoxia’s ER with sister at the wheel..all about 1 AM.  Now he’s the suspect and they’ll turn his pad inside-out, take his machine pistol (they gave the serial number over the air, 9mm carbine of some sort…maybe he was poaching in the back yard)… Lost lotsa blood.

      One of the benefits of the BRICS expansion is the growing allure. Many states are unfortunately just like their constituent humans — drawn by the sexy and “en mode.” BRICS has become a status symbol, like a bling bling for some — not so much as a vehicle of hegemonic escape, but it is simply cool and inclusive new organization led by non-westerners who welcome without restriction. Some see it as a shelter from hegemonic pressure too, to open negotiation space..

      I think China is on to this, and is using an asymmetric approach to the Sahel crisis. Emperor XJP emphasized in his brief the nurturing of Peace and Harmony of inter-state relations. He threw a needed soft pebble to calm the lake:
      “…Should we pursue cooperation and integration, or just succumb to division and confrontation? Should we work together to maintain peace and stability, or just sleepwalk into the abyss…

      … We need to promote development and prosperity for all…
      We need to achieve universal security. Recent years have seen a turbulent world; many countries and regions are plagued by wars and conflicts and many people are displaced. Members of the international community share the pressing hope to eradicate the root cause of conflicts and wars, and find a fundamental way to realize enduring peace and security globally…

      … Just as a line in a Chinese poem reads, ‘No mountains can stop the surging flow of a mighty river.’ Whatever resistance there may be, BRICS, a positive and stable force for good, will continue to grow….

      ….The gathering between BRICS countries and more than 50 other countries in South Africa today is not an exercise of asking countries to take sides, nor an exercise of creating bloc confrontation. Rather, it is an endeavor to expand the architecture of peace and development. I am glad to note that over 20 countries are knocking on the door of BRICS. China hopes to see more joining the BRICS cooperation mechanism….”

      His words were listened to with care. And that leads to the core question: what were the newly accepted conditions of joining BRICS??

      And then shortly after, Nigeria’s two top rivals on continent, and two next most populated states of Egypt and Ethiopia were admitted! This will work to dampen furore of Nigerians to be suicided within ECOWAS. How can they aspire to join when functioning as a hated local proxy for the aggressions of the fading Hegemon? They would really stick out like a sore thumb. They are already deluged with social media insults and shaming, unbearable to most aware Nigerians.

      And soon, they will see Algeria, Zimbabwe, and other aspirants join too. This would further lower their profile, in spite of Nigeria having Africa’s top economy and largest population. So this Summit, if only for helping maintain the peace in Africa, will have been worth it….

      PS — huh! Ama, after posting this, I see you posted his speech in entirety! I agree, a lovely message, the capstone of this conference. He did very well, promoting peace and tranquility amongst Africans. Without peace, stability and responsible good governance, Africans have no future….

      DEVELOPING

      Wagner’s being eased out of Africa, at least under current configuration. Russian Mil making visits, knocking on state doors. Was the Chef’s last trip to the Sahel a desperate sales pitch, aware the clock was ticking?

      We talked about this end of June. Russia would change its PMC model. Lavrov hinted at same. Even those Africans who elect to keep Wagner, it will be a fully controlled beast, no longer loose canons, with a new crew in charge.

      argentina surprised me, i was deeply saddened by argentina’s  government’s spineless submission & @ first hoped it was merely a decoy, but the news throughout the day continued to confirm the tragic stupidity & the spiralling future of argentina & her long suffering people was bitter.  so this morning’s news was marvellous.  however, i am surprised (head shake as it seems daily) that algeria wasn’t included.  i had guessed algeria was a for sure.  dear ahh, please, when you’ve a moment could you share your take on this?   blessings, gratitude & appreciation.

      Hi emerson, I don’t have comfort with Argentina. Hopefully Jorge can say something. He’s from a neighbor and was only one expecting they would join BRICS…

      It’s likely a factional fight, as in Brazil? Pro- vs Anti-Empire. Some of those elites see themselves as constituent members of rootless supranationalists. Some are frank European nazis from WW2 ratlines. They do not see themselves having neither allegiance to new soil nor responsibility to their captive populations, which they abuse.

      But the allure and heft of Argentina is worth it. Larch would understand it, and why he was equally sorrowful yesterday. Emerson, few nations enjoy the soft power and love worldwide  — maybe wholly due to the exploits of their fútbol teams! Spunky short runts that conquered all! And such beautiful team colors, built on equally exquisite flag. Who hasn’t heard of Maradonna or Messi, top players in their sport’s history? So all this draws in the Global South.

      And Russia via Lavrov said this explicitly, that they recruit leaders and influencers into BRICS, to help move multipolarity along. (Photo) Most humans are lazy, comfortable to stay in the unwholesome status quo, even in existential fights and facing the inflection point and opportunity of a millennia! So some will be dragged into multipolarity, and helped to abandon Hegemony, by the undeserved beauty of Argentina. It is immaterial much of its Oligarchs are satanic and neoliberal quasi-fascists. Even they follow their wallets towards China. And most youthful and impressionable nations will now find this a chic club, and run to join. Even imperial poodle Chile, and many other Latinos can be swayed to abandon Monroe Doctrine.

      I do hope to see Venezuela and Bolivia next, two plucky warrior nations, who’ve survived much.

      I was disappointed about Algeria too. But there is an opaque horse trading going on. Even Pepe didn’t know the very hour before they decided! I suppose among the priorities this time were (1) not to enlarge too fast so as to not risk devaluing the brand. Btw, Lavrov said they would keep the name “BRICS” as it is a good brand, and not keep changing it every 6 months or so, as they steadily expand. And China and Russia want rapid expansion, which is good.

      (2) As this was “the Year of the African BRICS,” I agree Egypt and Ethiopia have priority. You need at least two more Africans, given the scale we discussed, and one at least from sub-Sahara. And since bringing in KSA-Iran duo was a priority, one also needs to bring in the UAE to avoid hissy-fits with falling behind its bitter rival KSA, that’s enough arabs and muslims. And UAE in the fold means less shenanigans for Little Sparta, as it will be forced to get civilized. And its deep wallets are needed.

      Egypt is strategic. Location location location, at junction of Africa, Levant, Arabia and Asia. Suez. Along with Syria the moral and intellectual leader of Arabs. A proud civilization of countless millennia. Top army in Africa and bulwark against Zionist cancer entity which is its NE neighbor. It may replace Turkey as the Russian grain hub into Africa.

      And it has to be dissuaded against war on Ethiopia due to the GERD dam over the contested Nile waters. And to help put out war in Sudan. It is as infiltrated as Brazil and Argentina by pro-Empire elements, both Muslim Brotherhood (created in Egypt by MI6!) and within military Junta too. Its currency and economy is as weakened and impoverished by usual suspects as is Turkey. Most Egyptian physicians have fled abroad to earn a living. They are strange nomads, like Cubans and Indians, among best docs in world, found throughout the world, especially in Arabia.

      Here’s from informed Egyptian source, why he thinks they were selected:

      So stabilizing beleaguered Egypt takes precedence over Algeria, which is largely OK. And there is slim to no chance Algeria will pivot to Empire, given its bitter French experience, and ongoing travails with Anglo-French terrorism and the Sahel crisis, as well as Moroccan perfidy. And Putin feted her President at SPIEF in June as summit central guest, and is selling an alleged $40 B (!!) worth of arms to Algeria. So is there a rush to cement Algeria within the brave new world?! They are already in the vanguard.

      (3) We need deep pockets to fund the brave new world. China cannot do it alone. So I suspect, in addition to encouraging their abandonment of the Petrodollar, a key reason to bring in the GCC in the first wave is to help fund the NDB. This will be their contribution. We shall see

        thank you, dear ahh, your observations are the refreshing cooling fruit juice popsicle required.

        jorge luis borges & the library he called home inspired my love for argentina.  i haven’t followed soccer but appreciate the global bonds it inspires.  i’d forgotten argentina’s nazi component, which i encountered as a child, argentine polo players often came in search of our ponies.  they had an arrogance & cruelty that caused even dirt poor horseman to refuse the sale.  training their ponies, & generally the ponies most favoured had an independent streak & strength that was most sought after, involved tying them to a pole & applying the whip until the necessary effect was achieved without utterly destroying the will.  like oncologists ministering drugs to alleviate pain without killing the patient.  a heartbreaking process which as a ten year old i couldn’t comprehend.  like many things in life, argentina is a complicated beauty.  & i rejoice with this inclusion, even if the nazis will try to undo the good & break the hope of brics, it will hold, brics is true & good, & the nazis will be defeated, without the pole & whip but rather with the immaculate weapon of hope & prosperity.  impossible to defeat.

        algeria! thank you for your keen thoughts & speculations.  i’d begun to hope that algeria was a confident & rather than feeling shunted, as some such as modi or the bedouins may have felt, i liked to imagine algeria understood & had helped formulate the plan forward.  you are spot on, egypt is crucial, ethiopia is crucial.  the gerd if it can be peacefully harmoniously resolved the world & certainly the mediterranean will be a better place.  china & russia, iran & algeria can see the profit in this.  agreed about the prized egyptian mind, i’ve encountered numerous mathematicians & physicists the world over, esteemed & unique.  thank you for broadening my understanding regarding the muslim brotherhood, i did not know mi6 created them, but it certainly spits true.  i studied walsingham for some years, a mind which has impacted the west as fully as newton’s.  & the grain hub, i hadn’t fully grasped its importance when i’d first skimmed the consideration of transferring it from turkey—bravo, indeed, a brilliant stroke, & fully accessible to the countries most in need.

        looking @ the sheer power, the fabulous wealth of uae & sa, the oil (yes, venezuela will surely be soon) alongside brazil, russia & iran, how long before nigeria also decides which side will be greener? the resources, the population??  yes, it is an overwhelming tidal wave & one to celebrate.  xi’s speech, lavrov’s good guidance, wang yi’s measured brilliant strokes all champion that there is no turning back, only a gentle moving forward for the betterment of all.

        thank you, ahh, you bring so much.  amarynth thank you for globalsouth.co a monumental site, scouting & archiving these historical waters.  blessings all.

          Yikes! I’ve always disliked polo, in spite of the blown fake prestigious image. Was it seeing Prince Charles cavorting around like a clown?! Yes, it doesn’t surprise, the innate cruelty of nazis.

          That being said, some Argentines I knew were exceptional humanitarians and loved by us all. A colleague, who I met during training in the US, was very capable, amazing can-do spirit. iirc, he was an army reservist back in Argentina and didn’t take crap. And one of the all time loved athletes, Gabriella Sabatini, and their tennis players in general, were graceful. I spent entire years of my life wasted watching them play — not so much the competition (as in fútbol they usually lost, lol) but the strokes and movement and anticipation and feel for the ball. True elegant artists who approached their craft with care; only French came close, and they were even greater losers!

          I agree, they are a complicated lot, in such a varied society! And I agree their nazis cannot overcome BRICS. All of Argentina can fit into 2.5 Chinese cities… all they bring is image and location; not too much harm can be done, right?

          I disliked Borges, but then I was a teen then forced to read him (in original Spanish when I had never set foot on a Spanish speaking country!). Was then immature. I loved the “Gran Columbian” Gabriel Garcia Marquez, a sappy romantic. His love for life and unrequited love and the madness of elites was appreciable to all.

          Welcome back HT! Yes, emerson is spot on. I’d focused on Egypt, but Ethiopia is as strategic. This is why it was in first wave. The WHO chief is a negative! But we won’t hold against them a functionary who sold his soul long ago.

          Christianity entered Abyssinia in 34 AD?? Coptic to this day, unbowed by the 19th Century Colonization Rape of Africa, today they host the AU and a vibrant economy. I saw the warm reception Putin accorded their president in July Afro-Russia Summit, and Lavrov’s visited how many times?! 4-6x in just last 3 years. One of the banner photos of a Lineaments was Lavrov sitting at the Ethiopian coffee ceremony. Coffee was first cultivated in Abyssinia, thence to Yemen, where it became a prized exclusive export until its secret was stolen by a Dutchman who spread it far. And Ethiopia was a friend protected by the Tzar from the western wolves in 19th Century too. So a long relationship with Russia, and currently one of the top 3 FDI of China into Africa for last 20 years, and a gateway into East/Central Africa alongside Mombasa, Kenya port.

          With Nigeria a current abject vassal of USUK, and South Africa already representing the southern region, and West Africa a mess atm, Ethiopia makes easy sense as sub-Saharan majority nation and regional power of East Africa. Imagine what stabilizing both Egypt and Ethiopia will do to the critical Red Sea, as they sit on the two ends… some commentators are already calling it a BRICS lake, lol! Let’s solve Sudan first.

      Fantastic additions to BRICS+, although Argentina looks like the weakest economic link here. Ethiopia has a massive population but can it remain stable post-civil strife? Either way, this is a significant step forward to uniting the “Global Globe” against the forces of Satan the Hegemon.

      Alas, I don’t have much time these days to read everything, but just want to express my appreciation for all of your contributions on this beloved website.

      The assassination of the Chef, drainage of radioactive waste water into the Pacific by the occupied fascist concubine Japan, and now the imminent arrest of whipping boy Trump…. going just by this full-court press of optical sleights-of-hand in last 24 hours on the finishing day of BRICS Summit, the BRICS Summit was a smashing success. Wow. One can cut the panic with a dull, rusting, antique French butter knife.

      Emerson, I remembered Argentina may be schizophrenic due to its strategic location and generational Parasitism. 1% of its population (per controlled wiki) is Jewish and speaks Yiddish. This percentage increased since 2003 destabilization of the Levant, with ongoing reverse flows, even admitted by Wiki. Huge swathes of Patagonia were bought decades ago, ostensibly retirement tracks and innocent kibbutzes, but the Israeli army trains there regularly, iirc annually. It was mooted along with Uganda and Palestine as the Jewish National Home in the late 1800s heyday of Zionism. How many of its current Oligarchs are Zionist?? Do they enjoy preponderant influence, as in USA/Europe?? So it is entangled and may serve as a trojan horse within BRICS. But again, it also brings side benefits to the multipolar side…

        “It was mooted along with Uganda and Palestine as the Jewish National Home in the late 1800s heyday of Zionism.”

        The Uganda Scheme was a proposal by British colonist Joseph Chamberlain to create a Jewish homeland in a portion of British East Africa. Apart from the Uganda Scheme, there was also a plan proposed by the Nazi German government to forcibly relocate the Jewish population of Europe to the island of Madagascar :

      I agree dear AHH about the ostensible decision to add the heftier populated and strategically located countries first.

      Now that the news has settled in a bit, the choice of Ethiopia strikes me as rather odd. Big population, yes, but not a big mover and shaker on the international stage – and the WHO chief doesn’t count.

      Perhaps the political views of the new members’ leadership mattered, but then why leave out Algeria for now? Its location is much closer to W. Europe and Algeria may have been “passed over” to avoid causing alarm to the Europeans at this stage of the jungle’s BRICS rise.

      Even tho Larch is right about Yev, I’m going to miss him and some of his antics, tho not his more distasteful ones. He kept it interesting and was a “complicated” character.

      So I agree with Mr P, I’d buy Yev a drink too.

      Wagner PMC is being dismantled both in Belarus and in Africa…. brick by brick, no pun intended.

      This is driven not only by necessity, an abundance of caution since what occurred, but demarches by Egypt and others rightfully concerned by unaccountable mercenary forces. Will a new foreign legion, explicitly coupled to Rus MoD arise? Time will tell. But there is a proven advantage to deploying auxiliaries putatively in the gray zone, matching the dastardly side.. a force multiplier. Let’s see the evolution and how it is rebranded

        Yes, was it M Hudson who said debts that cannot be paid won’t be paid? But it is only a first move.. others get their bid too.

        I saw an interesting article recently which anticipated countermoves — for example, countries under odious debt renounce their debt. The West confiscates their holdings. Then the Global South nationalizes their own industries, resources and infrastructure which were maliciously privatized by Economic Hitmen. And so on.

        And the Rest of Humanity enjoys the greater balance, like Russia looted of its forex by the West (most do not admit Russia holds more Western holdings within Russia as hostage!) So it is a game the RoH will win…

        and what can the West do, bereft of military supremacy?? And all furiously dedollarizing and shifting to alternate exchange mechanisms, trade supply chains and logistics? A great decoupling is already underway, anticipating the next futile moves of the Pidgeon strutting so bravely on what it delusionally considers its own board, lol!

        I think all this has been gamed and may be largely going according to plan. As the dying Parasite flails and sanctions all and even the Sun for emitting Heat, it slowly deflates under the decoupling underway, as new institutions and mechanisms arise to avoid a catastrophic collapse. That is the primary determinant atm. How to decouple from the crazed without suffering such harm.

        So time is of the essence, to while it away, and redirect them toward futile rear marches and attacks which alienate even more and recruit them to multipolarity.

        It will go in fits and starts. The multipolar side have their own huge issues, as we see every day, even without western MSM sabotage. It is like herding cats. Most nations, like most humans, do not think strategically, and harm the desired process underway. Nevertheless, the sum vector is encouraging and at this point irreversible. But let’s strap into our belts! Turbulence ahead!

      DER CHEF AND VINO Der Chef plays pee Pee Herman “More wine,  sir”…. But seriously…

      Recalling that Heaven likes to make jokes, and remembering that the shouts of propaganda carry the whispers of truth…(I think about that) let us set a similar dinner party at Abe’s Celestial Bar… the big screen is showing RT reports from 404 and BRICS…

      Der Chef pours for Trotsky, Stalin stokes pipe…

      Stalin: Comrade Davidovich, it’s Georgian wine you know. We have some sent up now and again. Good, eh?

      Trotsky: (Tastes wine) Yes, very fine Comrade Vissarionovich.

      Trotsky, hesitant, looks into his red fluid. Reaches back to feel his head, and places the glass on the table. “Comrade, I have some thoughts about our Revolution.”

      Stalin: Yes, I too have thoughts on this matter, we must place our ideas and observations into the open and examine what happened according to Marxist Leninist Principles.

      Trotsky: (defiant) And Trotskyist Principles! And according to History , Comrade!

      Stalin: Well, yes, of course.

      Der Chef sits down at the head of the table, under the big screen, opens a beer.

      Der Chef: Look fellas, you were both right, and the fact is that the Soviet was temporary, full of contradictions, but it worked well enough! I know these guys running the show, the Soviets made them!

      Stalin: It was necessary to make Socialism in one place first, then World Revolution!

      Trotsky: Yes, Comrade, but I was right too, it must be the whole world. Our Revolution created the foundation, and the men and women who ripped the guts out of the nazi armies, and the men who are doing it again while making world revolution in a much more mature way, eh?

      …and on the big screen “Key BRICS Declaration….”

      Trotsky: So!, Comrades!… (nods to Der Chef and salutes him with his glass) Let us drink to the Victory!

      Stalin: (does not drink, puffs pipe, Dear Chef takes his beer from his lips) Let me ask you Comrade Davidovich this question. When will the collapse of the nazis’ corrupt empire produce small States, like Alaska, or Maine, that wish to join us in peace? When they have all joined our Revolution – Then, then I will drink to Victory.”
