Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) officials say this is necessary because there is still a “likely risk” that the pandemic will spiral out of control over the next four years, even though COVID-related deaths and hospital admissions are at historically low levels 🤔

NATO’s “Invisible Tears” to the World: Russia Deceived Alliance Intelligence with “Oreshnik”

Russia carried out a massive fire strike on Ukrainian infrastructure facilities in response to the ATACMS missile strike on the Taganrog aircraft plant. This is how the events of Friday, December 13, look to the uninitiated. In fact, yesterday a real strategic battle took place in Ukraine at the level of the main headquarters of the US and Russia. Our side won, using the hypersonic Oreshnik as bait…

Forwarded from Rybar:

“As expected, Israel declared that no agreements on the Golan Heights, the demilitarized zone, or other maxims are valid any more. The Israelis are occupying Syrian army posts and destroying the defensive and scientific potential of the former Syrian Arab Republic.

Strikes have been launched against the building of a scientific research center in Damascus , the airfield in Halhalla in As-Suwayda , and an arsenal in the province of Daraa . In general, everything is being done to prevent weapons from falling into the hands of the armed opposition (in a parallel reality, this would have to be done by the Syrian Arab Army before retreating).

📍The Israelis are already speaking about the inadmissibility of “spreading the threat” and the need to create a buffer zone. In some areas, the demilitarized zone is 10 kilometers , but in order to occupy tactically important lines, the IDF may decide to move the line of combat contact further to the east.

📌The head of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, Abu Muhammad al-Julani, has already managed to declare that Syria’s territory is indivisible and the Golan Heights will be Syrian, not Israeli. After that, the very same strikes and expansion of the control zone began +/- “

Forwarded from Older than Edda :

“The collapse of Assad’s army in Syria is very similar to and even surpasses what we saw in Afghanistan during the Taliban offensive and the expulsion of the Americans. The army is falling apart, fleeing, abandoning everything, and in this case the most important issue is not Assad’s fate, not the various centers for coordination and reconciliation, even laying flowers at the monument and the Yunarmiya concert on another holiday are not as important as what will be left for us.

10 years of our presence, the dead Russian soldiers, billions of rubles spent and thousands of tons of ammunition, they must somehow be compensated for by something. It is clear that Assad himself did everything to bring his country to collapse, and the army to shame, but those who commanded and command in this direction from us must understand the responsibility for what I listed above.

Syria, which during the SMO became a quiet haven and a place where it was possible, among other things, to hide military leaders who were not coping with their duties, went and struck according to all the rules of war. It struck where it was thin, and thin can only be if your enemy is preparing for war, and you are not only not preparing, you do not even want to think about it.

The beginning of the SMO, or rather our failures, they are largely connected with the “Syrian experience”. BTGs, driving in columns, standing in columns and much more, this is precisely the Syrian experience, but unlike Syria, a real enemy does not forgive such things. We had to reconsider our tactics and strategy, many opposed this, cursing the current situation and these damned bloggers who decided to teach generals from their couches and be surprised by the actions of the deputies of the former Minister of Defense (now it is the “Lefortovo” battalion). So, continuing the topic. Syria has become a safe haven, without war, without bloggers, with a military cargo cult and all its attributes. Plus, our group in Syria has become quite small in number, but still led by generals.

Now the only thing that can really not only brighten up the current picture, but even to some extent give us the opportunity to compensate for the current failure and the money spent, is our holding the province of Latakia and Tartus. Holding, with full actual power of our military and special agencies, without various mukhabarats, as well as other Syrian sigurants and bureaucracy. Mobilization of those, primarily Alawites, who can really participate in the battles to defend Latakia and not run away at the sight of militants.

The Latakia People’s Republic and the free port of Tartus are now the only thing that can both save the remains of Syria and (and this is actually the most important thing) protect our interests. Unfortunately, it was necessary to think and prepare for such a development of events earlier, and if there were no such plans, then it may already be too late.

Be that as it may, we have our own main front, and the situation with the SAA once again clearly shows where and to what “peacekeeping” without the final defeat of the enemy leads.”

Orientalist Semyonov: The terrorists who captured part of Aleppo did not expect such success :
https://m.vz.ru/news/2024/11/30/1300838.html
The reason for the capture of part of Aleppo by terrorists was the degradation of the Syrian political system, including the army and security structures; opponents of Bashar al-Assad also took advantage of Israeli strikes on pro-Iranian forces in the SAR and Lebanon…

“The past two days are significant because the tests of the Oreshnik medium-range missile system caused “a sudden indirect impact on organisms with an explosive air wave” literally everywhere …

… The most remarkable thing to focus upon the performance and characteristics of the Hazel Tree,
“On the day that Lot went out of Sodom, a rain of fire and brimstone fell from heaven and destroyed them all; so it will be in the day when the Son of Man appears.”

Catching insects
a puppy in all playfulness
Its dinner untouched

The parting of her hair
seen from above
Her nose

As I behold her
the hairpin is affixed
A kiss
