DJ, I do think "TIR" Türkiye-Iran-Russia did "drop" Assad in Syria-because his position became impossible...In my view Türkiye may be the "big winner" in Syria...
Türkiye is in NATO...however going its own route... USrael-Syria under Assad were in relative peace...With USrael/NATO supporting all kind of "rebels/terrorists" in Syria for years...Those "rebels" were used by NATO for the dirty work...Now those "rebels" are the new "government"... https://syria.liveuamap.com/ or https://syria.liveuamap.com/ ; 3 SDF tanks damaged as a result of raids by Turkish warplanes on the M4 road near the town of Ain Issa and Tishreen Dam in the eastern countryside of Aleppo DJ, The ceasefire in Lebanon soon will be over...In Gaza Hamas-fighters still kill zionist extremists...With NATO creation "Usrael" murdering Palestinians by the dozens...

There is no need to wait for things to get better to experience this world as paradise. The time for both of these things is now.
Right at this very moment you can begin a daily practice of sowing the seeds of revolution. You as an individual cannot defeat the empire yourself, but it is absolutely within your power to open a few people’s eyes to the reality that the status quo is unacceptable, and that a better world is possible. It is absolutely within your power to show people how they’ve been lied to their whole lives about their country, their society and their world, and to show people how they are currently being deceived about stories that are in the news today.
You have an ability to share ideas and information which revolutionaries of past generations could only dream of. You can make a daily practice of using these unprecedented abilities to expand awareness of what’s wrong with our society and how to fix it, in your own words exactly as you see things. There is no need to wait for the deus ex machina ending of Marxian prophecy where the contradictions inherent in capitalism give rise to revolution. You as an individual can begin planting the seeds of revolution right now.
And right at this very moment you can begin experiencing this world as paradise. Even in the thick of this nightmarish dystopia, this moment right here and now is electrifyingly beautiful. You can learn to look at this human experience with new eyes, hear it with new ears, feel it with new flesh, in each and every moment. As fucked up as we know things are intellectually, there is nothing stopping us from learning to relish each moment of life on this amazing blue planet and to suck in its air like a passionate lover.
So there’s nothing to wait for. Not revolution, and not the beautiful world we want to build once we have wrested control away from our abusive rulers. Both revolution and beauty are available to you right now. Don’t waste another second of your life waiting for them.
You’re not at the bus stop, you’re on the bus. Get to work, angel. DJ, I would love to believe it...but I do think "revolutions" only bring other tyrants...

DJ, I do NOT believe in revolutions...but the present crisis is also becoming impossible...

It was UKraine trying to create a radiation leak so "the west" would join UKraine..This may have been the goal in the Kursk operation-goal Kursk Nuclear Power Plant- as well... There have been "talks" in the US-biden gang- on attacks on Iran... DJ-I do think biden and his gang of maniacs may be able to go for "unseen escalation" to punish trump/voters in the US...Simply not able to understand they also started World War Three... Wars, climate disasters-pandemics are climate linked-need global answers...Somehow a US elite is in a tunnel vision-with European "leaders" following US orders...AGAINST European interests ! Insane !

Jakarta (ANTARA) - Indonesia welcomed its inclusion as a full member of BRICS this month and is committed to actively contributing to the organization's agenda in the future, according to the Foreign Ministry on Tuesday. "As a country with an ever-growing and diverse economy, Indonesia is committed to actively contributing to the BRICS agenda on economic resilience, technology cooperation, and sustainable development," the ministry noted in its written statement. Indonesia aims to fulfill its role within BRICS by addressing global challenges, such as climate change, food resilience, and public health, while striving for an inclusive and just global order. Indonesia is also fully dedicated to "working with all BRICS members and other parties for a just, peaceful, and prosperous world." According to the Foreign Ministry, Indonesia's accession to the BRICS reflects the country's increasingly active global involvement and is a momentum for bolstering multilateral cooperation. "Indonesia viewed its BRICS membership as a strategic step to enhance collaboration and cooperation with developing countries with the principles of equality, mutual respect, and sustainable development," the Foreign Ministry stated. Indonesia also perceives the BRICS as an important platform for strengthening South-South cooperation and ensuring that the voices and aspirations of the Global South are heard and represented in decision-making processes on the global stage. Regarding Indonesia's accession to BRICS as a full member, the Foreign Ministry expressed gratitude to Russia for chairing the bloc in 2024 and Brazil for its leadership in 2025. "Indonesia is ready to participate constructively in various BRICS initiatives for the interest of the global community," the ministry stated, reiterating that the country's participation in BRICS aligns with Indonesia's constitutional values. Brazil, the 2025 BRICS chair, officially recognized Indonesia as the bloc's newest full member on Monday (Jan 6). In its press release, the Brazilian government congratulated Indonesia on its accession to BRICS and commended the country's support for priority issues brought up during Brazil's chairmanship this year.

From NL teletext (google translate) ;
Once again the incoming president
Trump announced a number of plans.
At a press conference he said all that
NATO countries 5 percent of their GDP, their
gross domestic product, on defense
have to spend.
He also said that the convict
Capitol stormers get amnesty and
that the Gulf of Mexico Gulf of America
is going to be called. He also talked about his plan
for control of Greenland and Panama
and he agreed
military intervention is not ruled out.
Trump's press conference was not
announced and came in the middle of one
broadcast about the funeral of former
President Jimmy Carter. |

DJ...I needed a break after the latest act of total trump insanity...
It was NOT an idea of Europe to include UKraine, Georgia in NATO...it was a US idea " accepted" in 2008 in a Bucharest NATO meeting. Hollande (France) Merkel ( Germany) were against it since it would create a crisis with Russia..The US pushed for it... The trump-idea is now export US debts to Europe..We have to buy US energy and weapons...because of the chaos the US did create...Blowing uo Nordstream (just like the The Hague invasion act-a US military for the ICC/ICJ would send US military to the Dutch coast..) totally unacceptable... France still feels a "responsibility/interest" in former "protectorates"Lebanon and Syria...The US messed up things there... DJ-Can the US "take over" the Panama-canal, Greenland ? YES-The US has enough military strength to do so...One may not even need a war for it...Just a lot of US military, ships, weapons, airpower...Will trump go that way ? He might do so... Canada is a different story...but maybe going for one type of $ could be a step...Joined Canadian-US exercises another...mixing US and Canadian "groups" simply would outnumber Canada... The "drill-drill-drill" claim may be more insanity...US oil capacity may have peaked...In an open market US energy would not compete...but wait...there is no longer an open market-but a "sanction market"... Age of stupidity !

Israel’s history of territorial expansion (e.g., settlements in the West Bank, annexation of the Golan Heights and further Syrian territories) demonstrates how military power can embolden policies that encourage war crimes, crimes against humanity, violate international law and fuel regional resentment.
Enhanced military capabilities embolden Israel to adopt a more aggressive posture toward its neighbors, further destabilising the region. Furthermore, over-reliance on military strength diminishes incentives to pursue diplomatic avenues for conflict resolution. Israel’s increasing militarisation undermines its ability to achieve lasting peace agreements and encourages its expansion.
This is what the US is doing to the Middle East. DJ, Why would USrael go for any kind of peace when the US/NATO is pushing for war ? https://www.thailandmedical.news/news/breaking-news-iran-could-possibly-unleash-dangerous-biological-weapons-on-israel-united-states-and-europe-soon or https://www.thailandmedical.news/news/breaking-news-iran-could-possibly-unleash-dangerous-biological-weapons-on-israel-united-states-and-europe-soon DJ-Like claiming China is hiding info it may be part of a blame-game for failing to provide even basic public healthcare...War is the only priority for NATO...

Trump says that the US need Greenland "for national security purposes" and "for the free world", and claims that "people really don't even know if Denmark has any legal right to it" (which is 100% false).
Would he ever dare say this with regards to Chinese or Russian territory? Not in a million years. But he sees that not only is Europe weak but also in the absolutely disastrous strategic situation where it is "defended" by him! Which means that Europe is effectively trapped in a mob-style protection racket and is about to relearn the old geopolitical adage (attributed to Thucydides): "the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must".
So many ironies here of course, starting with Trump's claim about protecting the "free world" through territorial annexation.
Second irony is that Europe's hysterical fixation on Russian imperialism - more phantom than reality given Russia's demonstrated capabilities - has led it to sleepwalk into the clutches of an actual empire that now casually discusses carving it up.
Last but not least, probably the bigger irony is that no-one in the whole world is going to care because of Europe's double-standards and hypocrisy in its own dealings with the rest of the world, and Gaza in particular. Since the very beginning of Gaza (and again yesterday: https://x.com/RnaudBertrand/status/1876450134755889306?t=dCCQ5P4OkgEjuwBZjqAqAQ&s=19…) I wrote that the bigger meaning of Europe's response would be the death of any pretense to an global order based on international law.
And that's exactly where we are. By choosing to openly abandon even the appearance of principles Europe has essentially announced it was ok with "might makes right". A monumentally stupid thing to do when you aren't mighty yourself...
Europe's leaders (if you can call them so), in their eagerness to be "good allies" by supporting the violation of international law in Gaza, have effectively signed their own continent's permission slip for future dismemberment. They've forgotten that principles aren't just moral luxuries - they're practical shields, and once broken for others, they no longer protect you either.
Their forgetting this is especially egregious given Europe's own history. Because we've we've seen this many times before and perhaps the most salient example is the response - or absence thereof - to Mussolini's Italy invading Ethiopia in 1935, which resulted in hundreds of thousands of Ethiopian deaths.
Despite Ethiopia being a member of the League of Nations, the UN-ancestor meant to prevent exactly such aggression, major powers chose to protect their fellow European power rather than uphold international law. With the consequences we all know about: the death of the League of Nations as a credible institution and the clear message to other European powers that hunting season on weaker nations and peoples was officially open. Within a few months afterwards, Hitler started remilitarizing the Rhineland.
The century of humiliation that Europe is walking into has a uniquely self-inflicted quality to it, stemming from its own moral corruption and strategic myopia. Unlike China, which at least could claim to have been blindsided by European imperialism, Europe is actively participating in dismantling the very legal protections that could shield it from stronger powers. Which means it won't even have the moral authority to protest. DJ, European "politics-for-sale" serve the US/western elite...Under German-nazi occupation Germany did send its "commissars" to rule occupied countries..In the present day enough "politicians" are willing to do the job !
