    Do you remember how the Russians set up the legal and political environment immediately preceding the 404-SMO?? The contemptuous Ultimatums, which they knew would be rejected, but still presented and publicly?? The same process appears underway for West Asia-SMO…

    It is MUCH more substantial than I thought. The Iranians were accorded the honor this time, as it is their region, among the RIC civilizational states (note emphasis by Iranian FM above that it is THEIR region).. The Iranian FM came to deliver a big FUCK OFF to the Empire, delivered verbally at UNGA podium in the den of the Beast itself. Nothing subtle or diplomatic… For the record, before the guns go off.

    This entire endeavor appears a humiliation ritual of the satanists. To ensure they cannot withdraw, as were publicly insulted and challenged, and served notice that they will be buried in the Holy Land and that their pet zionist project will be cast into the Sea it slithered out of.

    💠 @MedManTG:
    ⚡️The Iranian Foreign Minister expressed the following wishes and the viewpoints of the Iranian government in terms of the conflict in Palestine.
    1) Israel does not have a right to exist, and Palestine is from the river to the sea.
    2) The UN Charter, especially Article 45/130, gives Palestine the right to armed resistance against Israeli forces
    3) America is not interested in the peace process and is only interested in supporting the state of Israel.

    💠 @Middle East Spectator:
    ⚡️— 🇮🇷/🇺🇳 Iranian Foreign Minister at the United Nations: [video
    – The full and inalienable right of the Palestinians is the establishment of an independent Palestinian state in the entire land of occupied Palestine. The entire land of Palestine from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan river belongs to the Palestinian people.
    – The Palestinian nation has the legitimate right to armed resistance against the usurping occupation.
    – America has prevented the Security Council from fulfilling its duty dozens of times, by using their veto power to unconditionally support Israel and to hinder the rights of Palestinians.
    – The only way forward is to establish an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.
    – The Islamic Republic of Iran has proposed holding a referendum among all the residents of occupied Palestine.
    – The Israeli regime is comitting war crimes and genocide against Palestinian civilians.
    – The United States, since it is a direct supporter of the murderous Zionist entity, is in no position to ask other parties or countries to exercise restraint.
    We fully support Hamas, which is standing up for the Palestinian people, and resistance to occupation is their inherent right.
    🔹issued a direct warning to the United States at the UN:
    ‘I say frankly to the Americans, who are now managing the genocide in Palestine, that we do not want the expansion of war into the region.
    But I warn that if the genocide in Gaza continues, they [America] will not be spared from the fire. This is our home, and West Asia is our region. We do not compromise with any party or any side, and we have no reservation when it comes to our home security.’
    🔹Iranian Foreign Minister, Amir Abdollahian: We are not ashamed to say, our foreign policy is based on the liberation of Palestine from the usurping Zionist entity

    Buckle up and pray. After the carriers are sunk, they will go nuclear, see Trump’s cowardly tweet today. This is factored in too, and will still not save them.

    A Likud member “wants Gaza firebombed like Dresden,” saying the US is holding the Jewish state back from “Biblical vengeance.”

    “Israel should level Gaza to the ground and expel all Palestinians to Egypt to deter its enemies, Likud party member and former Knesset lawmaker Moshe Feiglin said in an interview on Wednesday… Feiglin lamented that 18 days have passed since the Hamas attack and “we still have not revenged [sic], in a biblical way…we did not burn Gaza to ashes immediately!”

    ⚡️[retweeted:] Israel has completely lost control of the narrative so it’s killing all of the messengers! Dua Sharf is at least the 25th journalist to be killed in this war on Gaza. Horrific. [the 25th killed is a female named Dua, which means “a prayer” in arabic..]
    ⚡️#Israel’s achievement: Women and children have made up more than 62 per cent of the 6500 fatalities, while more than 15,273 people have been injured. Also, 35 of the @UN staff members working with the Palestine refugee agency UNRWA, have been killed.
    ⚡️#Israel continues its killing in the West Bank, where #Hamas has no control, showing the natural face and intentions of the occupier. Thousands of Palestinians have been arrested.
    ⚡️ This is a sign of weakness because #Israel knows 10000s of #Hamas are waiting for them. Israel continues destroying #Gaza, killing civilians to turn the population against Hamas once the bombardment ends. A real genocide.
    ⚡️#Israel conducted a targeted raid inside #Gaza supported by tanks for a short period at night and crossed back after the raid. The #US advises the Israelis on how to minimise their losses and continuously engage Gaza. The carpet bombing of civilians continues

    Population of Azerbaijan

    Hi emerson, i do not know most of the story regarding Azerbaijan, but suspect the affair begins and ends with the British. They likely served as conduit to the israelis. And for a while, Israeli arms had an unearned reputation as superior, and were welcomed for practical reasons. Both the British and their local rottweiler always saw Transcaucasia as the northern staging ground to assault Iran and the southern beachhead to cut off Russia from landroutes to Iran and West Asia.

    As with India, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, and most of the Anglophone former British Empire territories, small insecure Azerbaijan after the implosion of the USSR in 1991 somehow became networked and connected to the British realm. The same pattern for Kazakhstan too. British Petroleum made huge inroads, delivering stupendous wealth to the tiny state. Azerbaijan only had about 7-8M in 1991 and 10M today, insignificant on the global stage. Like other CIS states, they leaned to the West out of historical fear of Russian dominance and because the West was seen dominant and victorious in the Cold War… The Azeri/Kazakh elite flooded Londonistan, like the Russian oligarchs, becoming emotionally, ideologically and culturally attached…

    However both former Soviet States benefited from prudent factions of their elites, trained in Russia, speaking Russian, maintaining old relations, and keeping doors open to Moscow too. The Aliyev family is close to Putin. They are smart. They know they cannot take on BOTH Iran and Russia (or either alone), as they are being set up to do by the crazed West. The West LACKS logistics so far away in Transcaucasia, especially after having lost the Ukraine war and control of the Black Sea. Control of the Black Sea and Georgia, and diminution of Russia was a prerequisite of advance into Transcaucasia and Central Asia. This is now gone forever.

    Iran also has significant hooks in Azerbaijan too — I think most Azeris actually live in the northern provinces of Iran, called by the eponymous name; much of Iranian elite have same Turkic background, with the current supreme leader Khamenei speaking Azeri too. Both are also the only two majority Shiite nations on earth! (albeit Azeris are quite secular) It is as with China and its “little brothers” in ASEAN — Azerbaijan cannot flout the will of Iran.

    Erdogan has played a constructive role here too — his pan-Turkic alliance, ostensibly arranged by MI-6 to attack the Heartland and sever connections with both Russia and China, now works to stabilize in the face of madness by Armenian compradore elites. Note the numerous meetings and phonecalls between Turks and Russians in last days. Gaza really is a “911” or rather an “anti-911” which will pulverize global connections to the satanic West. The open and lasting enemity of the Turks is sufficient for them in West Asia — Erdogan promised defeat to the unjust yesterday! The stabilization of Transcaucasia is a first fruit, arranged in consultations between the Azeris, Turks, Iranians, and Russians — in that order of importance. Many more bitter fruits to be harvested.

    Re: “They are asked to embrace such evil that perhaps this paralyzes them? Either it saps their moral compass and makes them ineffective, or it turns them demonic and they can only handle bullying.” 

    Exactly. This is well-known phenomena, for eons. Sun Tzu discussed the imperative of holding the moral ground at all times. This is impossible when oppressing and terrorizing innocent civilians. It destroys self-respect, courage, unit cohesion and mutual trust, adherence to illegitimate missions, etc etc.

    The British Empire instituted coppers, modern police forces, in attempt to delay the inevitable degradation of their armed forces by having these gendarmerie function in corrupting policing work.

    The Israeli IDF has been used so long in criminal police work they long ago ceased to be an effective armed force. They were maintained through massive western superior high-tech weaponry and media PR. (Even this no longer works)

    It was noted in the last significant war of 1973 that the US Air Force and other branches came to their rescue, repainting their warcraft in Israeli colors. This so enraged Soviets they started to enter the war on the arab side, nearly leading to another superpower standoff. History repeats today too.

    Israel is a fully dependent western garrison state. Fullstop. This has been known by the cowardly regional arab regimes, why they so fear fighting against entire combined West. To fight Israel, since 1917 and the British Balfour declaration and General Allenby’s entrance into Jerusalem, has meant to fight the entire combined West. An irresistible force up to the Russian SMO.

    However a new generation, led by the Palestinians, Lebanese, and Syrians, with the least to lose since they are already leveled and impoverished as the African Sahel, has the courage, will, and are now imposing new realities, and quite successfully too.

    ⚡️Morocco baned pro-Palestinian protests condemning Macron’s visit to Israel

    Moroccan authorities banned Tuesday, 24 October, protests in front of the French embassy and consulates following French President Emmanuel Macron’s support for Israel.

    The ban shocked many activists as pro-Palestine protests were initially allowed to rally freely across the country’s streets, including one in front of the US embassy. On Tuesday, the Moroccan Network to Support People, a local NGO, called on Moroccans to head to the French embassy and consulates in the country to voice condemnation of Paris’ position on the war.

    In Rabat, dozens of police officers and auxiliary forces cornered the few activists who were first to arrive at the embassy and forcibly pushed them out. The same scenario happened in Casablanca and Tangier, where protesters were prohibited near the French consulates. Despite that protests continued in other parts of cities.

    Good news (!!) One front appears taken off the chessboard, thanks to Lavrov, Putin, Iranians, and the cooperation of Azeris. Transcaucasia is settling after arrangements were found to connect the two parts of Azerbaijan, via Iran. The Armenians, French and their USUK masters can eat crow! Why do I suspect this is an early fruit of Gaza for the combined West???

    💠@DDGeopolitics:
    ⚡️🇦🇿🇦🇲🇮🇷 Azerbaijan is no longer interested in securing a land corridor through Armenia to the Azerbaijani enclave of Nakhichevan and will instead discuss the issue with its southern neighbour Iran, a senior Azerbaijani official said on Wednesday.

    Routing a potential corridor through Iran, which borders both Armenia and Azerbaijan, could help reduce tensions around southern Armenia, which Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has in the past referred to as historically Azeri land.

    “Azerbaijan had no plans to seize Zangezur,” Hikmet Hajiyev, a top foreign policy adviser to Iliyev, told Reuters, referring to the putative corridor that would link Azerbaijan proper to its enclave of Nakhichevan bordering Turkey, Baku’s close ally.

    “After the two sides failed to agree on its opening, the project has lost its attractiveness for us — we can do this with Iran instead,” he said.

    Armenia had opposed such a corridor, fearing having to make further territorial concessions after Azerbaijan seized the contested region of Nagorno-Karabakh in a lightning offensive in September.

    Although internationally viewed as Azeri territory, Karabakh had been controlled by ethnic Armenians since the fall of the Soviet Union in the 1990s. The Azeri offensive prompted almost all the region’s 120,000 ethnic Armenians to flee into Armenia.

    Azerbaijan had in recent weeks called for its longstanding request for a transport corridor through southern Armenia to be included in ongoing talks on a peace treaty aimed at ending three decades of conflict between Baku and Yerevan.

    Wang Yi to arrive in NYC in a few hours too. Lula today said Gaza is experiencing genocide. Saudis, Egyptians, and the Iranian president all said the UNSC has become ineffectual in resolving international peace due to gridlock. South Africa, across the political spectrum, is enraged at crimes of the apartheid state. India sent an initial aid plane to Al-Arish, Sinai, Egypt for Gaza. The positions and anger of Russia and China are clear. Even compradore UAE voted against the US.. dunno about the last two BRICS members Argentina and Ethiopia, but both have domestic preoccupations atm.

    Next two days should be epochal in NYC.

    ◾️ The adoption of a US resolution by the UN Security Council will bind it and discredit it;

    ◾️ The US is not only unable to stop the escalation in the Middle East, but is actually giving it the green light;

    ◾️ Russia does not call on Israel to abandon the fight against terrorists, but asks not to extend it to civilians.
