 US Command Is Behind Nearly Every HIMARS Strike in Ukraine — NYT

The New York Times reveals that American military personnel based in Wiesbaden, Germany, are selecting targets, transmitting coordinates, and even controlling Ukraine’s HIMARS systems through electronic maps that can be deactivated remotely. This is not mere assistance — it’s direct coordination and command. Washington isn’t helping Ukraine fight a war — it’s waging one by proxy.

 China BLOCKS BlackRock from buying a strategic port in Panama from its current Hong Kong-based owner.

BlackRock attempted to acquire Panama Colon Container Terminal, a key port near the Panama Canal — one of the most important global trade routes.

Chinese regulators blocked the sale, saying it would “endanger public interest” and national security. In other words: No American financial firm will be allowed to control a gateway between the Atlantic and Pacific.

BlackRock isn’t just any investment firm. It’s a $10 trillion behemoth with:
• Deep ties to the U.S. State Department, Pentagon, and Federal Reserve
• A track record of extractive capitalism (housing, land, energy, war profiteering)
• Access to sensitive data across sectors and countries
• A role in managing U.S. sanctions and defense portfolios

Panama = Geopolitical chokepoint
The Panama Canal sees over 5% of global maritime trade. Control of its ports = leverage over global supply chains.

In the era of multipolarity, Beijing is drawing red lines: No foreign financial hegemony over strategic infrastructure.

BlackRock wanted to own the gates to a global shipping artery.
China slammed that gate shut.

This is more than a blocked sale — it’s a direct blow to U.S. financial imperialism.

Germany’s top general, Carsten Breuer, is pushing for increased defense spending, claiming that Russia poses a direct threat to NATO and could launch an attack within four years. “We are threatened by Russia. We are threatened by Putin. We must do whatever is necessary to deter that,” Breuer told the BBC, echoing familiar Western narratives that justify military expansion. He insisted that NATO must accelerate its preparations, stating, “It’s not about how much time we need—it’s about how much time Putin gives us to prepare. And the sooner we are ready, the better.” His remarks align with the broader trend of NATO militarization, which continues to escalate tensions rather than pursue diplomatic solutions.

This will only work, however, if we also buy more gas from #Russland and, above all, stop buying expensive, indirectly imported Russian liquefied natural gas instead of cheap Russian pipeline gas. Cheaper gas would also be the best stimulus for the German economy. Contrary to many other proposals, such a response would benefit, not be detrimental, to European and German consumers. Instead of maneuvering ourselves into a tariff spiral, we should free ourselves from our new energy dependence on #USA . This also includes the repair of Nord Stream, although its sale to a US investor must be prevented if possible. DJ...biden provoked the UKraine war-trump tries to go for maximum profits...To start another war with Iran... NATO is destroying ALL public investments; education, healthcare, housing, transport...for more war ! And "most politicians" go for that insanity !

A significant number of these launch-ready missiles are located in underground facilities scattered across the country, designed to withstand airstrikes. Since his inauguration in January, Trump has repeatedly stated that he would bomb Iran if the country does not make the concessions he wants. Reports indicate these concessions include the complete dismantling of its nuclear program, ties with Resistance groups, and aspects of its missiles and drones program. Iranians have refused to negotiate with the U.S. under the current circumstances, stating they are ready to respond to any aggression decisively. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8y5O4Pja41U or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8y5O4Pja41U WION-India; Yemen's Houthis Strike USS Harry S Truman in Red Sea: A Significant Military Escalation \| WION The Houthi rebels claim that they have hit the E-2 command and control aircraft of the USS Harry S.

Not only did the Trump administration lie, it continues to lie. This was Tulsi Gabbard just 18 hours ago, following days of collapsing entire apartment buildings on civilians to kill single suspected individual targets in Yemen, after topping off Israel stockpiles of US-made bombs to bury the Palestinian people under, after weeks of threatening to seize Greenland and preparing for war with Iran, and after deliberately failing to end Washington's OWN proxy war against Russia while blaming "Europe" and "Ukraine." Trump already spent 4 years surrounded by neoccons committing war crimes and acts of war and now he's surrounded by neocon warmongers again, without exception, picking up right where both he and Biden left off last. Tulsi Gabbard, by telling such an insulting lie, is telling you she never had the integrity you imagined she had AND that she thinks so little about your intelligence and integrity. Washington doesn't work for you, it works for unelected corporate interests, without exception. Washington thinks you're too dumb or obsessed with left/right politics to see through continuity of agenda - and unfortunately it appears for many they are right. And if you're making excuses for any of this, you're part of the problem. This isn't a choice between Trump and Harris, it is a choice between the corrupt US uniparty and the rest of the world's desire for multipolarism. Vote with your money, time, energy, and attention - stop paying into false hope in Washington and start investing in multipolarism - alternative media, alternative companies and products, alternative ideas and principles, and an alternative future. Stop allowing these people to make fools of you individually and of America collectively. DJ,US creation USrael keeps killing Arabs in Gaza...with US/UK killing Arabs in Yemen... Most western "politicians" keep defending these mass murders... BRICS+ only can conclude the "west" only listens to facts on the battlefields..

	DJ, Maybe a few "basic ideas" on "wars"; -Russia could end the UKraine war...however the UKraine war is a conflict they control. It is also keeping "the west/NATO" unable to start other major wars... -Since both pandemics and climate are ongoing worsening disasters "some governments" NEED wars as distraction-but also as an excuse to "control the news"... -In Brussel/Belgium EU-NATO almost "merge"-with the EU "elite" trying to get even more powers from memberstates-with war as an excuse... -EU, UK, US interests are often NOT the same interests...One of the (many) reasons why EU/UK did not spent 2% of GDP on "wars" was that money ended up in US pockets...(with only part of it being invested in UK/EU)... -The "Brussel elite" would like to keep the war with Russia going...US -for now- has other priorities in Asia. EU/UK need to "invest" trillions to cover for all the weapons/help given to both UKraine and USrael... -NATO now is weaker then it has been in decades/ever...Never ending wars all over the world, shortage of people willing to die for a criminal elite, economic downfall, for now does NOT offer any perspective for more wars against BRICS+ to save the US$... -In fact-in part-the Euro/€ countries may welcome some de-dollar-ization because it could increase the role of the Euro/€ as a global reserve currency...

	https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRQAZubiGu4 or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRQAZubiGu4 The Duran; NYT, US waged COALITION WAR against Russia and https://www.moonofalabama.org/2025/03/racist-allied-underestimation-of-russias-abilities-led-to-its-win.html or https://www.moonofalabama.org/2025/03/racist-allied-underestimation-of-russias-abilities-led-to-its-win.html ; Alex Cristoforou's diagnosis of delusion and propaganda does not go deep enough. A quote from the New York Times piece reveals that a very real factor behind starting and losing the war is pure racism: Within the coalition, the prevailing wisdom was that the 2023 counteroffensive would be the war’s last: The Ukrainians would claim outright triumph, or Mr. Putin would be forced to sue for peace. ... They didn’t have to be as good as the British and Americans, General Cavoli would say; they just had to be better than the Russians. U.S. General Christopher G. Cavoli is the commander of the United States European Command and Supreme Allied Commander Europe. His lack of historic knowledge and respect of the abilities of Russian soldiers should have disqualified him. It is for racist people like him that the U.S., UK and Ukraine failed to recognize that have had no chance to win. DJ, The newyorktimes-lies do confirm western racism, dealing with non-westerners as sub-humans... The "rest" of the world, step by step, must start realizing "western mentality" did not change a lot since the 17th/18th century..."Outsourcing jobs to low income countries" replaced slave trade...It was NOT meant to get "poor countries" rich...but to keep exploiting cheap workers, natural resources...Via proxy regimes financed by the west... The only conclusion "the rest" can come to is "we need regime change in the west"....

	DJ, USrael again bombing Lebanon/Beirut, Gaza, SW Syria...NOT able to go against Iran... US bombing Yemen-another US MQ-9 drone shot down...The US also NOT able to attack Iran... Diego Garcia-Indian Ocean (occupied by the UK-rented it to the US) is within reach of Iran missiles...several other countries can destroy that US/UK base if needed... China PRC again going for drills around Republic Of China/Taiwan...both calling themselves "the real China"...(Like both Korea's claim to be the real thing...). Since "the west" will go for war with China as well Beijing may decide-in coordination with BRICS+ - to "take over control" over Taiwan airspace/ports...No need for an invasion... --- One of the outcomes of trump-disasters is Canada now is linking pipelines to Pacific ports to export energy to Asia...NOT to the US...Canada and Australia joined in weapon production...Canada-EU talks could be of mutual interests... Both Canada and Mexico may be even better off without the (trump ruined) US...Lots of alternatives... Australia is exporting a lot of its products to Asia. And like the EU also Asia/Asean has many possible partners...Canada is moving in that direction as well... The idea was western sanctions would "break Russia"...in fact it made Russia stronger...Canada, Mexico -even the EU- may learn "switching trade partners" may bring improvements... The "west" is in a political "turn over"...Excluding le pen in France, sabotaging presidential elections in Romania are NOT signs of strength but of a regime in decay... Russia, Iran, China etc. do know wars and the horror of war...Wars have no winners...that is a western made phantasy...So BRICS+ will go for further non-western trade-later on may also offer some room for some western countries... Spain/Portugal are in a good position for trade with Latin America...NW Europe has major ports (Rotterdam, Hamburg, Antwerp(en)... ----- The western "idea" was Russia is unable to fight the UKraine war for years...That idea is showing to be wrong more and more...YES the UKraine war is a burden for Russia-but it is an even bigger burden for the west... Making USrael dominate West Asia is another disaster...Like UKraine also USrael is breaking down...with the goal of western domination (via USrael) getting more and more unrealistic by the day... Regime change in Syria may develop like the regime change in Afghanistan. Islamic extremists have to show they can offer more then war...Afghanistan has to make deals with its West Asia neighbours to survive... Türkiye did get "more then it expected" in Syria...Now has to find ways to deal with that situation. USrael rather has Russians in Syria then Turks...So Russia/BRICS+ can play a role... Since it is the US using both UKraine and USrael in a US war against BRICS+ the US is NOT in any form in a position to end those wars...The US is the main reason these wars are killing thousends of people per day... A way out has to come-and will come-from BRICS+...The big picture; US started wars to stop BRICS+ ending with BRICS+ getting the dominant global player...

	DJ, Part of a BRICS+ strategy may have become confronting the US/NATO/"west" on multiple fronts... -Both Iran and Yemen may increase attacks on US/NATO ships/bases -Hamas/Hezbollah both may increase attacks on US-creation-usrael... -Russia is increasing its activities against increased NATO supported "UKraine" -PRC-China may increase pressure on US proxy Taiwan -Enough other frontlines in Asia, Africa, Latin America... It is a 10% "west" against a 90% "rest" of the world...Western propaganda may have been able to claim "Unprovoked Russian agression in UKraine"...but even in the west itself lots of people do no longer go for that lie... In France macron may try to get more French military ending up in UKraine..."law fare" against neo-fascist le pen however will backfire... The western elite still sticking to frontal confrontation-again and again-fooling themselves "it is getting results"...Indeed it is "getting results" -however NOT the results the "west" should want.... DJ-Going after le pen for using EU funds to pay for French party spending in itself may have a point...Weak spot may be lots of political parties may do the same kind of "financing"....Going after le pen could result in lots of legal actions against lots of political parties for the same kind of "mis-financing"...It only worsens the chaos... US führer trumpf is making demands on Russia, UKraine, Iran, Yemen...but unable to enforce anything if they decide to ignore his demands...showing himself a paper tiger... April 2 "liberation day-tariffs" only weakens the US further...In NL groceries prices jumped 7% in 1 year...https://nltimes.nl/2025/04/01/dutch-annual-inflation-rate-37-grocery-prices-jump-7-year or https://nltimes.nl/2025/04/01/dutch-annual-inflation-rate-37-grocery-prices-jump-7-year ...of course NOT related to https://nltimes.nl/2025/04/01/netherlands-funds-drone-project-ukraine-eu500-million-investment or https://nltimes.nl/2025/04/01/netherlands-funds-drone-project-ukraine-eu500-million-investment NL also spending BILLIONS per year on wars in Eastern Europe and West Asia... The "west" neo-liberalism/neo-fascism is a dead end street...but western leaders keep increasing speed...
