A convoy of US occupation forces, including about 20 vehicles, arrived at a military base in the Syrian countryside of Hasakah, traveling from Iraq at dawn today, with air cover to protect it.

The sources said the convoy was following a US special forces team that was previously stationed at the Ain Asad base in Iraq and then headed to Al-Hasakah on a previously unannounced mission.

The sources added that the new forces are expected to later move to another base near Damascus in coordination with al-Julani.

⭕ ‼️ My friend Lee Slusher, who has long attested credible and particular knowledge of such things, engages in some informed speculation regarding the potential reach of Russia’s electronic warfare capabilities — and its potential relationship to recent events in the Red Sea
[Links:
🔻 Lee Slusher: This is nothing but curious questioning. I don’t claim to know what happened with the purported friendly fire incidents involving the USS Gettysburg in the Red Sea. I simply wish to share some thoughts.

In 2014, an unarmed Russian Su-24 buzzed the USS Donald Cook in the Black Sea. A Russian media outlet claimed an electronic warfare system aboard the aircraft disabled the ship’s Aegis Combat System. The US denies the Aegis was impacted in any way.

In 2016, this time in the Baltic Sea, Russian aircraft again buzzed the Cook. (The photo below was taken aboard the ship during the incident.) A pair of Su-24s reportedly made twenty passes, according to an unnamed senior defense official. Two Russian Ka-27 helicopters came similarly close to the Cook the following day.

I remember these incidents well. They were relevant to my work at the time and remain so. If you follow me, you’ve likely seen my posts about Russian EW capabilities. I consider these to be dangerously underestimated among Western militaries, even after public acknowledgements of their successes against American weapons systems in Ukraine.

(The Cook couldn’t catch a break and in 2021—again in the Black Sea—Su-24s buzzed the ship once more. But you get the point.)

The reasons for Russia’s obsession with the Aegis, both the ship-based version and the Aegis Ashore systems in Romania and Poland, are obvious. I’m curious about them now given the ongoing escalation in Ukraine.

In response to Ukraine’s HIMARS and Storm Shadow missile strikes in Russia (which required Western targeting assistance), Russia fired its experimental Oreshnik missile, for which there are no publicly known countermeasures. After a short pause, Ukraine resumed missile attacks against targets inside Russia. Then came the assassination of Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov in Moscow and Ukrainian drone attacks on civilian apartments in the Russian city of Kazan.

Russia repeatedly sends signals regarding its escalation dominance in the region, but seemingly to no effect. Now very strange things are happening aboard yet another guided-missile ship, this time not the Cook (an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer) but the Gettysburg (a Ticonderoga-class cruiser)—but both rely on the Aegis.

Whether there were Russian aircraft near the Gettysburg when the ship fired on multiple US planes, we simply do not know. But if Russia can defeat, jam, or otherwise manipulate the Aegis system—and I’m not saying Russia has this capability, only that I suspect it might—could this capability be transferred to another platform (including sea and land-based), or could Russia deliver similar effects from a greater distance (including from space)? These are not far-fetched questions.

Again, I’m only sharing my own curiousities. The most parsimonious explanations regarding the incidents with the Gettysburg are human error and weapons system failure, especially given the US Navy’s many failures of seamanship in recent years. But it’s something to consider.

I also remain very curious about the explosion of the US’s Intelsat 33e satellite in October 2024. But here, too, the easiest explanations are incompetence or systems failure. After all, Boeing isn’t what it used to be.

Anyway—Merry Christmas, everyone!]

⭕ Russian Embassy Denies Reports of Sudan’s Refusal to Host Russian Navy Base

The reports about Sudan’s alleged refusal to host a Russian Navy logistics center are false, the Russian Embassy in Sudan told TASS.

“We were pleased to read the article by the well-known foreign agent and fakemaker, the Dutch branch of The Guardian — The Moscow Times (recognized in the Russian Federation as a foreign agent — TASS note) — about how Russia is “doing badly” in Sudan. We were pleased that the quality of the material hit another rock bottom. After all, everything written is a lie from the first to the last letter, so there is no need to stoop to comment. Even the links provided in the text are either distorted in meaning, or lead to non-existent pages, or send us to the distant year 2020,” the embassy said.
Earlier, a number of Western media outlets, citing anonymous sources in Sudanese intelligence, reported that Khartoum allegedly refused an agreement with Moscow on the deployment of a logistics center for the Russian Navy due to potential sanctions from the United States.
The conclusion of an agreement between the countries on the establishment of a Russian Navy logistics center in Sudan became known in early December 2020. The logistics center is supposed to be used for repairs, replenishment of supplies and rest of the crew members of Russian ships. According to the document, the maximum number of personnel at the Navy center will not exceed 300 people. No more than four Russian ships will be able to be there at the same time

Also from a commentary by a representative of the Russian Embassy in Sudan
“We were surprised to note that part of the Russian blogosphere, in unison with other foreign agents like Deutsche Welle, openly gloated on this topic.
We note with regret that the level of awareness of the Russian “expert community” in the part concerning Africa, in its majority, still remains weak. Which, however, reflects the shortage of relevant specialists in our country as a whole.
We note with sadness that the lack of knowledge does not cool the desire to remain “on trend” at any cost.
We look to the future with hope, we believe in the professionalism of observers who are not shy about engaging real experts, asking for clarifications, getting to the bottom of the truth… There are such examples, their professional growth is noticeable, their voices are becoming more and more audible.”

Today, areas of control are divided between the HTS, the Ankara-backed Syrian National Army (ANS) and the Washington-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (FDS), reinforcing the divisions and prolonging the anarchy.

⭕ Houthis have become the most inconvenient military target for Israel and the US

Today, the position of Yemen’s Houthis in Tehran’s resistance axis has increased significantly. As one of Iran’s last allies, the group continues to carry out attacks on Israel and control shipping in the Red Sea. Despite the US and coalition’s fight against the Houthis, on which Washington spends about $9 million daily, the Yemeni movement does not intend to retreat and still calls a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip the main demand for stopping attacks.

The international community is concerned that support and funding for the Houthis is now being significantly increased, largely by Tehran. Although the Houthis are significantly less experienced and less well-armed than other Iranian allies, such as Hezbollah, they are now gaining access to more sophisticated Iranian technology. On Saturday, Yemen’s Houthis launched a hypersonic ballistic missile at an Israeli military facility in the Jaffa area, which Tel Aviv failed to intercept.

While Israel and the US are focused on pursuing their interests in Syria, fighting Hamas and Hezbollah, the Yemeni Houthis remain the only Iranian proxies who are not even thinking of giving up their positions . The damage from their actions remains significant – the flow of maritime traffic in the Red Sea has fallen by about 30%.

🔻 C2: This was my worry when all this started. Yemen are strong and unyielding, but I now fear they’ll be ‘left alone’ with the consequences of the axis of resistances failures. Especially considering just how effective their resistance has been.
🔻 EM: It is not a question of being left alone or receives outside support. Each country or organisation fights for its own principles. The support they receive is to enable them to act according to their choices and not for others to fight on their behalf.
🔻 C3: They are actually one of the bravest people in the world.they see nothing but war seens they were born, so israel cant realy scare these people with bombs and dead bodies. as i said they were born into wars.
🔻 EM: Agree. Nevertheless, destruction and damage won’t change the bravery but inflict longer pain, particularly when Yemen is dealing with an immoral and unethical Israeli army.
🔻 C4: Yemeni leaders need to prepare themselves against Israeli assassinations
🔻 EM: I believe Yemen is aware of the danger.
🔻 C5: Yemen survived 8 year war against all the gulf arabs &u.s and uk. Tiny Israel cant do noting, houthis are not Hezbollah, they don’t care about silly ethics, they dont have backstabbing population to worry about, if Israel does something stupid the next missile will land in dimona

⭕ In the Middle East, many people have expressed surprise at the superficiality of the questions posed by the BBC to Ahmad al-Sharaa, also known as Abu Mohamad al-Joulani. This reaction reflects a broader perception that Western audiences often display a lack of interest in the deeper nuances of politics and geopolitics, relying instead on oversimplified and surface-level assessments.

For example, in the heart of Europe, “social integration” is frequently – not exclusively – judged by external, culturally specific markers such as eating pork, drinking alcohol, or, if married, having a wife who does not wear a headscarf.

Yet, even when an individual conforms to these so-called “modernised” behaviors, they may still face exclusion from societies entrenched in a colonial mindset and steeped in a patronising attitude toward cultural differences. This perspective highlights the inherent flaw in reducing individuals to such narrow criteria, as it disregards the broader cultural and political complexities that shape identities and experiences.

The deeper issue lies with individuals who feel compelled to prove their belonging to Western society by conforming to superficial standards that are disconnected from their own cultural values. Integration should not be contingent on abandoning personal or cultural choices in favour of arbitrary markers of acceptance. True integration requires mutual respect and understanding, rather than adherence to reductive parameters that neither define a person’s worth nor contribute to genuine inclusion. |link|

⭕ ‼️ Curious claim by the Yemeni that the USS Trembling Puppy skedaddled north to the vicinity of Sudan, and powered down all its systems.

Mmmm … 🤔

Perhaps the Yemeni have acquired some anti-ship missiles that can use a ship’s EM emissions for targeting guidance?
🔻 WS: It will be interesting to see if CSG-8 heads back to the Mediterranean rather than risk a passage through the Bab el-Mandeb.

#NoEasyWarsLeftToFight

🔻 C1: What the Bab el-Mandeb looks like now to the US navy.
[LOL. I disliked the movies and refused to watch them based on teasers alone. The book was much more majestic in description of the Gates of Argonath, as literary works invariably surpass audiovisual media]
⭕ Just a reminder that the reach of Russian SAMs FAR EXCEEDS that of its US/NATO counterparts.

Refueling tankers and crewed ISR aircraft would be fat targets for the S-500.

In Romania and in the EU, we have a dictatorship! Klaus Iohannis is an illegitimate president, extending his mandate by breaking the law. We know this won’t last. Dictators fall, just like their statues, all over the world. The bigger they think they are, the harder they will fall!

We, the people!
[this is the winner of the Romanian elections that was subsequently cancelled by Imperial diktat. He appears of the Orange Camacho mold; see the positioning of his hands. There can be no salvation within coopted dregs of western demokracia]
🔻 WS: I have long averred that, among the many profound consequences of the Ukraine War, will be the cessation of NATO as a functioning military / political alliance.

First Romania, Hungary, and Slovakia; then Finland and Sweden will seek an annulment of their shotgun marriages.
[I disagree with the part about the Scandinavians. They’re hardcore; they’ve rolled the dice like Anglos, and should similarly go down with the Titanic]
🔻 C2: Interesting predictions. I’ve observed your track record and so appreciate it is not without foundation on fact.

Possibly add Czechia to the list, especially as you have Slovakia already. The Czech mini-coup in 2023 didn’t go unnoticed by the citizens.
🔻 WS: Those countries I listed above were only meant to represent the “first stage” of the dissolution of NATO (and the EU).

⭕🔻 Elbridge Colby: I am profoundly honored by and grateful to President @realdonaldtrump for nominating me to serve as his Under Secretary of Defense for Policy. If confirmed by the Senate, it would be an exceptional privilege to work with @petehegseth and his team to implement President Trump’s vitally necessary agenda. As the President has rightly made so clear, it is vital to focus our defense policy on restoring peace through strength and always putting America first.
🔻 Big Serge ☦️🇺🇸🇷🇺: The higher Elbridge Colby is in the Foreign Policy/Defense apparatus, the better.
🔻 WS: [retweets old:]
I hope Elbridge Colby realizes his fondest aspirations, and lands a meaningful role in the formulation of US foreign policy.

I want all my criticisms of his #EmpireAtAllCosts dogma to be vindicated by subsequent events in which his face and name feature prominently.
⭕ 🧵 Donald Trump continues to pack his foreign policy team with #EmpireAtAllCosts cult disciples.

A short selection of my criticisms of Elbridge Colby follows in the replies to this post.
🔻 WS: ⚡️ Unobtainium

Colby essentially acknowledges the reality that, among many options, the US can choose one — and ONLY ONE — overseas war to fight.

However, he blinds himself to the reality that in order to prosecute this “ONE WAR”, it would be necessary for the US to effectively vacate every major American military base on the planet — there would be no other way to generate a force sufficient to even attempt war against Russia, China, or Iran.

And even though it would take at least a year to concentrate such a force in any of those putative theaters of battle, the US strategy will necessarily depend upon quick victory, which they cannot obtain.

And they simply cannot sustain a protracted high-intensity campaign against ANY of their adversary choices.

Defeat lurks behind every door in this game. And afterwards, the US will be effectively disarmed in terms of expeditionary warfare for at least a generation.

This is the cold hard reality of the situation at present, and I defy Colby or any of his fellow #EmpireAtAllCosts disciples to counter the many arguments I have made to that effect.

I will link to my latest in the reply to this post.
🔻 WS: Colby has gone balls to the wall #EmpireAtAllCosts #BatshitCrazy.

The notion that the US could defeat China in a war in its own neighborhood is the height of delusion. It couldn’t be done now, and it couldn’t be done in a decade even if that were the US’s sole focus.
[links:
“The US has a very strong interest in not allowing China to subordinate Taiwan. The US thus should be willing to fight to defend Taiwan.

The key is to make sure we can do it successfully and at a tolerable cost. That’s why we need to laser focus. |link|” ]
🔻 WS [July 2023]: Colby is inexplicably in thrall to the fallacious notion that fighting a war against China has better prospects than the one currently being lost against Russia.
🤦‍♂️
📜 The Ontological Incoherence of American Imperial Exceptionalism
⭕ 🔻 C1: Panama’s President responds to Trump: “Every square meter of the canal and its surrounding area is sovereign Panamanian territory.”
🔻 Armchair Warlord: Okay, Zelensky.
🔻 WS: The Panama Canal cannot be transited by the largest commercial ships.

When was the last time a US aircraft carrier transited the Panama Canal?

What meaningful advantage, above and beyond the current arrangement, would derive from seizing the canal?
[Chaos Will. scorched earth against multipolarity and keeping all Latin American under the Monroe Boot by the demonstration of smashing little Panama against the Wall. It helps to see the real actor behind the scene as Zionazi International, using the ethos of Gaza. The orderly British Empire ethos is long gone..]
🔻 C3: Blocking transit route to “bad actors”. Impoverishing Panama. Intimidating LatAm.

“We are of the Anglo-Saxon race, and when the Anglo-Saxon wants a thing *he just takes it.*”
🔻 WS: So impeding international trade routes / supply chains is the strategy?

Seems self-defeating to me.
🔻 C3: Simply having the ability increases power and prestige in the eyes of others.

Also, revival of Monroe Doctrine. LatAm exists to be carved up in a new Scramble for the Globe. The future is not multipolarity but bipolarity.

Comprador elites are drooling rn at potential profits.
🔻 WS: I don’t think you accurately perceive the degree to which US power projection capability has eroded over the past quarter century.

One thing is certain: Russia, China, and Iran would welcome the US turning its focus upon and spending its strength “reviving the Monroe Doctrine”.
[but they would still do it, as seen in Syria and Kursk. They will fight to retain each millimeter, if only to pump up their own shriveled gonads]
🔻 C4: Ask Syrians, Gazans, and Lebanese how power projection has been degraded.

“Axis of Resistance” is dead and Iran is next.

Apart from nukes, US is dominant in space, ISR, IT, culture, and most importantly- chutzpah.

“We will coup whoever we want – deal with it”
[thank you for succinctly framing the supranational nazi mentality]
🔻 Chris Close: Not letting the Chinese gain regional influence over a major choke point for the US.

That is more than enough.
🔻 WS: What do you suppose the Chinese would do in the event they gained “regional influence” by virtue of having built anew or greatly improved a cross-continent canal?

And how would their actions harm the interests of the United States?
🔻 Chris Close: It is not correct to frame this in the future tense Will.

They currently operate the ports on both sides of the canal.

That alone should be enough of a reason.

If I was China and was going to war, destroying the ports/canal locks etc. irreparably would be on my list.
🔻 WS: What Chinese interests would be served by irreparably destroying the Panama Canal?
🔻 Chris Close: Pre war?
🔻 WS: I do not believe the US will attempt to fight a war against China that it cannot possibly win. Therefore the only logical move is to cede the western Pacific to China’s irresistible sphere of dominance.

This is what happens when hegemony necessarily yields to mean reversion.
[yielding is not in the lexicon of the Last Satanic Empire. First must come the Ashes]
🔻 Chris Close: That is complicated and I am not sure what I think about that.

I definitely see, understand, and feel drawn to the point you are making.

But it is outside the scope of the Panama Canal discussion.
🔻 WS: All I can say about the Panama Canal is that its future prospects as an important trade node are almost certain to be enhanced by Chinese investment and development, and conversely almost certain to be degraded by current generation American investment and development.
🔻 Chris Close: I agree with that whole heartedly Will. Especially given where we have chosen to waste our funds.

The risk out weighs the rewards in my estimation.

The best outcome is to remove Chinese influence and do the work correctly ourselves?
[LOL. Hope dies last]
🔻 Chris Close: Currently that seems to be true. I believe that will be changing with the new admin if past is prolog.

That is still no reason to allow China to have unfettered access to part of our jugular.
🔻 WS: “Unfettered access” is a nebulous term. And I don’t believe the Panama Canal represents the “jugular” of the United States.

In any case, if the US wants to spend its strength on “reviving the Monroe Doctrine”, Russia, China, and Iran will view that turn of events very favorably.
🔻 Chris Close: Unfettered = easy for saboteurs to destroy the ports, locks, etc.

70++ (72?) percent of the traffic through the Panama Canal is heading from our to US ports.

Not sure they will have a choice or voice in the matter. Or if that is the direction we are headed.
🔻 WS: My sense of the matter is that it would be entirely out of character for the Chinese to wantonly sabotage the Panama Canal — unless the US did something really bad to them in the first place.

In my view, both China and Russia are predisposed to deal fairly with the US as EQUALS.
🔻 C6: Not everything is about the Military
🔻 WS: Yes. Precisely my point.
🔻 C7: Confronting China in Panama ? |link|
🔻 WS: The US-built Panama Canal was a boon for global commerce and prosperity. The whole world profited from it for a century.

The world now needs a new one, and no one but the Chinese are capable of such an undertaking. Why should they not be encouraged to make it happen?
[the West viscerally needs to keep its position, and to keep All Others down]
🔻 C8: It is all about emotional jealousy that Chyna de facto controls it today.
🔻 Wonderer LLama, PhD: Nobody cares about Panama.

China just got a port in Peru and they will build a road to Brazil’s coast.
🔻 C8: China has a lot going on in Panama.
🔻 Wonderer LLama, PhD: This is why USA wants to take back the old Canal
🔻 C8: It comes across as nothing but pure jealousy.
[with a healthy dollop of honeyed Malice]
🔻 Wonderer LLama, PhD: Not jealousy, USA just found out the Empire is dead and instead of rebuilding America, they prefer to start more wars.
🔻 WS: The sad truth is that the US circa 2025 could not build a Panama Canal if you gave them 25 years and 25 trillion dollars to do it.

But 2025 China could do such a thing — better, faster, and cheaper than anyone else.

And everyone would benefit.

So why not let them try?
[Why is during the western retreat through Novorossiya that every Russian city about to be liberated is torched and its civilians executed? And every arab that doesn’t kneel in West Asia incinerated and left with a landscape making Hiroshima 1945 look built-up? Why ask why? Just drink…]
🔻 C10: When was the Monroe Doctrine ever abandoned?
🔻 WS: Almost immediately after its entirely misunderstood invention.

The so-called “Monroe Doctrine” was entirely predicated on the principle of the United States not interfering in nations OUTSIDE the Americas.
[this is true, with the US Navy being sent to north African Barbary coast, etc.. However since Teddy Roosevelt, and open expansion outwards in last decade of 19th century, it came to mean of non-Americans’ intrusion into “US Affairs” in Latin America.. their sole prerogative over the banana republics “liberated into Demokracy and Freeum” from the decomposing Iberian empires]
⭕🔻Brandon: Once we take Canada and Greenland, our GDP will surge and growth will be supreme. Just great. |media|
[links:
“2025: 🇺🇸faces a debt wall. 31% of the $36 trillion in government debt will mature. Meaning that debt will roll from the near zero percent rates to the current 10yr yield of 4.5%. Financing that 31% at the new rates adds an additional $405 billion to the debt interest for 2025.”]
🔻 WS: Low-hanging fruit.

Certainly a better option than invading Mexico, as many people are enthusiastically promoting.
