KeymasterAt this stage of the thread, I would like to provide a little explanation. The hasbara is still strong and pervasive, and it has taken over the public sphere.
Our ‘reliable’ correspondents are not immune and of course, we are not immune to this.
We should ideally wait a day or so for the dust to settle, if it ever settles. On the other hand, we and readers could sort the wheat from the chaff and report what is being said knowing it contains heaps of deliberately skewed information.
In this case, we may be accused of passing along Hasbara because there is plenty to pass around. I’ll try to keep it clean on my side but it is a struggle and very time consuming.
Btw, the Kremlin has said nothing about Türkiye violating the Astana and Sochi agreements, …
No, Alepo has not fallen. There are incursions by Takfiri’s mainly to raid. They are slowly being driven out. It is not a easy affair and we can only look back at some Russian battles to understand these processes. Right now we see in the Russian border areas, Kursk, where such an invasion is taking months to rectify.
Remember Aleppo in the Syrian war .. the soldiers crawled into holes to pull out the anti-Syrian (and I see Anti-Assad being used again) fighters. It is incredible to see all the old names surface. It is like a time-warp.
This morning every Syrian State formal website is gone .. I can’t find them. Searches with my regular browser and Yandex deliver pages of Reuters, USAid, Wiki and such, but not a word about any formal Syrian site. I found the above General Command statement from a very obscure channel and then followed it through to others that had it posted, and found it was just passed on from one to the other and so fast that nobody sourced it. So, is it accurate? I think so – as the context and content hang together and confirmation came from Al Mayadeen. I did not see a date even on that release. This is the state of the information milieu and also the state of Telegram Channels Youtube and other video and podcast outlets. It is something that we all must deal with, and of course, the more sexy, the greater the income.
Syrian Arab Army: Our armed forces fought fierce battles at various points of engagement extending over a strip exceeding 100 km to stop the advance of the militants
Syrian Arab Army: The large-scale attack by terrorist organizations was launched from multiple axes on the Aleppo and Idlib fronts
Syrian Arab Army: Organizations supported by thousands of foreign terrorists and armed with heavy weapons and large numbers of drones launched a large-scale attack
A day or two yet, before this war takes its shape.
KeymasterThis morning’s SAA statement:
Statement issued by the General Command of the Syrian Army and Armed Forces:
• Over the past few days, armed terrorist organizations under the so-called Al-Nusra Front, supported by thousands of foreign terrorists, heavy weapons, and large numbers of drones, launched a broad attack from multiple axes on the Aleppo and Idlib fronts. Our armed forces fought fierce battles against them at various points of engagement extending over a strip exceeding 100 Km to stop their advance. During the battles, dozens of our armed forces were martyred and others were wounded.
• The large numbers of terrorists and the multiple fronts of engagement prompted our armed forces to carry out a redeployment operation aimed at strengthening the defence lines in order to absorb the attack, preserve the lives of civilians and soldiers, and prepare for a counterattack.
• With the continued flow of terrorists across the northern borders and the intensification of military and technical support for them, terrorist organizations were able, during the past hours, to enter large parts of Aleppo city neighborhoods without being able to establish their positions due to our armed forces continuosly targeting them with concentrated and strong strikes, until the arrival of military reinforcements is completed and distributed on the fighting fronts in preparation for launching a counterattack.
• The General Command of the Syrian Army and Armed Forces confirms that this measure it has taken is a temporary measure and that it will work by all possible means to ensure the security and safety of our people in the city of Aleppo, and will continue its operations and carry out its national duty in confronting terrorist organizations to expel them and restore the control of the state and its institutions over the entire city and its countryside.

OK, start your youtube video, not full screen, nothing fancy .. right click right on the video (Oh dear heavens, I hope there is a right click on windows, I’m on Linux and have forgotten windoze).
Anyway, right click .. select ’embed video’ or anything that looks like ’embed’.
Come back here and use text mode to paste your embed code.
Its not so hard .. except, when it is hard. Your key word is ’embed’.
(Nico, you tried to embed a video that was already full screen .. lol. No can do. I simply went back to a normal mode and followed the procedure as outlined here)

KeymasterSmoothie is mad because he has to explain missiles yet again. But let’s keep this:
Thanks Smoothie!
“I explained the difference between hypersonic and ICBMs so many times on this blog, that I am really tired repeating it, for the last time:
1. ICBM MIRVs are in the atmosphere for a very short time–seconds really;
2. Hypersonic weapons are weapons which are capable:
a) of flying IN the atmosphere, maneuver in it and be controlled, all that is for many minutes.
b) that is why Oreshnik, while being a ballistic missile (on the booster phase) delivers warheads (either inert, loaded with conventional explosives or 900 kT nuke) into their maneuver phase after which they maneuver at some atmospheric high elevation and then DIVE. Practically same routine as Kinzhal.
Imagine 36 Kinzhals flying at you at once. The whole world saw it. Nobody in the world (except Russia) has a technology to intercept it. These weapons are called quasi ballistic weapons.
c) Other hypersonic weapons, such as 3M22 Zircon conduct fully powered flight within atmosphere for minutes and arrive to the target under own propulsion.
3. Russia already has MIRVs which are powered and also can maneuver for ICBMs such as RS-28 Sarmat. And then there are gliding maneuvering block such as Avangard which have unlimited range, fly with M=27+ and maneuver.
When I say that the US is not even the same league with Russia–I mean it. It us not hyperbole, it is not a figure of speech. That is why I had it with Ted Postol’s BS and next week you all will know why. The US lost the arms race not by falling behind but by a knockout.”
I don’t know how to link a post on that system, so, http://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/2024/11/the-creator-of-oreshnik.html#disqus_thread

He has some Trump parodies out there that makes one cry .. the Spanish is better – like always the local lingo has a different vibe to it.
November 27, 2024 at 12:11 in reply to: 7. “Thought as a System” by theoretical physicist David Bohm, part 1 of 2 #47402KeymasterHere is a playlist of all the conversations – Krisnamurti – Bohm. I enjoy listening again, although it has been many years.
I would consider it some of the best ‘entry’ work, seeking guidance on consciousness and thinking – choiceless awareness. For me there came a time when I wanted to kinda enter into life again and be part of it actively. The passive path became a stepping stone but a very necessary one.
I have some more work that is a little mindblowing, and will put it up as soon as I have a few hours without distractions.
KeymasterI’ve posted at the Dailies .. Shit’s gonna hit the fan.
Russian MoD: According to the confirmed data, in the last three days, the AFU carried out two strikes at objects in Kursk region by long-range Western-made weaponry.
On 23 November, the enemy fired five U.S.-made ATACMS operational-tactical missiles at a position of an S-400 anti-aircraft battalion near Lotarevka (37 kilometres north-west of Kursk).
During a surface-to-air battle, a Pantsir AAMG crew protecting the battalion destroyed three ATACMS missiles, and two hit their intended targets.
As a result of the strike, a radar was damaged. There are casualties among personnel.
On 25 November, the Kiev regime delivered one more strike by eight ATACMS operational-tactical missiles at the Kursk-Vostochny airfield (near Khalino). Seven missile were shot down by S-400 SAM and Pantsir AAMG systems, one missile hit the assigned target. Two servicemen were lightly wounded and infrastructure objects sustained minor damage by missile debris.
After investigating the attacked sites it was confirmed that the AFU delivered strikes by U.S.-made ATACMS operational-tactical missiles.
The Russian Defence Ministry Controls The Current Situation. Retaliatory Measures Are Being Prepared.
KeymasterHi Mr.P
Thanks, in that very same video (took me a day to hear it out), Ritter says that before Trump comes in Netanyahu will be out of office. Big talk? or does something stick underneath it?
KeymasterA few people get that wrong. When the US started talking ICBM, I received and email saying that it absolutely is not. Man, I could have been very serious but I said that the definition by miles or kilometers cannot be definitive – because does it then change to Intercontinental if the Russian fly it to England? To my mind the issue is range, not Intercontinental or not.
I’m slowly beginning to understand the Hazel and agree with Smoothie – nuclear war is not the issue any longer. But this has been filtering out in the Russian world for a few months now. I cannot put my finger on anything specific, but that was pretty clear in my mind that they are saying it is something like .. say post nuclear missile technology.
There are better videos on RT this morning .. worth while looking at if one understands that there was not too much bang in that missile. Just after the sentence, Footage of the strike shows the projectile had multiple splitting warheads that hit the facility at extremely high speeds. https://www.rt.com/russia/608136-hypersonic-missile-donbass-push/
KeymasterThis is for Mr P and of course, anyone else interested. Larry Johnson talks about the Kennedy files and why they are not yet made public.
He then posted a Ryan Dawson investigation that is chilling. It is loosely titled how the israelis stole the bomb.
So, because Larry’s written piece introduces the investigation, I’ll not post only the Dawson video, but the Johnson link and one can follow from there. Worth while listening to in my estimation.

November 25, 2024 at 06:53 in reply to: 7. “Thought as a System” by theoretical physicist David Bohm, part 1 of 2 #47218KeymasterThanks for David Bohm – a giant of consciousness in my eyes. And his series with Krishnamurti was a feast.
KeymasterI miss Mamood!
KeymasterYeah, this is Jones stuff. A ‘a secret global summit with the head of NATO’.
It ain’t global, and the head of Nato has no agency.
And Trump is not allowed to do any of this anyway.
But most important, is who will ever trust the US to make agreements with. Smoothie made a pointer to a guy on Larry Johson’s site with the name of HELMHOLTZ SMITH
It is worth a read … https://sonar21.com/advice-for-president-trump-on-ukraine-by-helmholtz-smith/
“But even if you had a big stick and a fresh carrot, America’s word is worthless – NATO enlargement, Minsk 1 and 2, Istanbul. Not forgetting the nurturing of Bandera, Stetsko and the others. Why would Moscow ever believe anything Washington promises? As Putin said a few years ago, US presidents come and go but nothing changes.
All you can do is deliver Ukraine. Deliver it to what? To Russia’s demands. So, Mr Trump, in 24 days you could stop the slaughter but only on Moscow’s terms.”
And even if Trump did that, who would believe him?
I’m afraid we are in the time of the missiles. The US has one choice, and that is to move into their own sphere, their own country and fix their own troubles. If not, well, Smoothie said today and I said earlier .. we are in war. There is no more SMO! And Russia holds the missiles.
I truly cannot care who says what but if one does not understand this, you will be lost in the noise.
Goodnight all you fine fellows and gals.
KeymasterSheikh Imran Hosein is a kind man. I had some contact with him and was astounded at his interest in small details and his kindness.
