As a subscriber to The Grayzone, this interesting article came through an hour or so ago ( briefly):

‘..,…..the emergence of a project to erode Argentina’s national sovereignty by handing over control of the country’s water to an Israeli company and provide benefits to Israeli expats while selling off the country’s public assets to wealthy investors and multinationals……..[and] disturbing rumours of a plan to allow for the resettlement of as many as 300,000 Israelis in Argentina (sic) , and the growing appeal of the Patagonia region to these outsiders’.

One can see Trump’s, Witkoff’s, Kushner’s, Fink’s, Ellison’s etc hands all over this.

A number of us here have been posting on this for a while. The way things are going , unless the USA can turn things around, both north and south America will become an hegemonic Jewish powerhouse. Such an exit strategy would fit neatly with Israel irradiatingly blowing up the whole ME.

Lavrov declared that “open war has been declared” on Russia:

Another very powerful factor destabilizing the global situation is the West’s decades-long expansion on the Eurasian continent, primarily in areas where Russia has always had strong influence and where our traditional, legitimate interests have existed. This obsessive desire, which has simply erupted openly in recent years, has been expressed in the slogan “to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia.”

Open war has been declared on us. The Kiev regime is being used as a kind of spearhead . But everyone knows that this spearhead is helpless, without the material support of Western weapons, Western intelligence, satellite systems, military training, and much, much more. The Kiev regime and the Ukrainian state are being openly used as a geopolitical battering ram. Some outspoken individuals, I think they were in the Belgian or German General Staff, have publicly declared that we are preparing for war with Russia, and that Ukraine is helping us buy time. Well, as they say, it couldn’t get any more frank.

A Jesus statue vandalized by Israeli soldiers has been treated with more solemnity and contrition than any IDF massacre of real human beings over the past three years.

This is happening because Israel knows its American support base of Christian Zionists will care more about the statue than all of the IDF’s attacks on Palestinian, Lebanese and Iranian human beings combined since 2023.
