The days of imperialism’s chokehold on the region are numbered.
Israel’s US-sponsored massacre in Gaza is much bigger than a mere “war between Israel and Hamas”.
Apartheid Israel’s genocidal ethnic cleansing of Palestinians is part of a larger US-led Western neocolonialist war against the indigenous resistance in multiple countries in West Asia.
Israel is also bombing Syria and Lebanon. The US just bombed Syria too. Resistance forces are attacking the US military occupiers in Syria and Iraq. Yemen’s real government (in Sana’a, not the US puppets in Aden) has vowed military support for Palestine. Iran and the Lebanese resistance will defend their sovereignty and the Palestinian people against Western neocolonial aggression. Times have changed. The days of imperialism’s chokehold on the region are numbered.

After the military coup in Niger took place, new authorities refused to cooperate with France. At the same time, since August, active fighting has resumed in the north of Mali, where separatist organizations of Tuaregs, widely known as the Coordination of Azawad Movements (CMA), entered into open conflict with the government forces of Mali (FAMA).
These events are taking place against the background of intensified attacks carried out by the third force – terrorist organizations in the Sahel region, in the area of three borders (Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso). All this raises the question, what is happening in the Sahel? And where will it all lead?
Since 2015, the Algiers peace agreement, brokered by Algeria, the UN Multidisciplinary Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA), the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), the African Union and the European Union, as well as the United States and France, have been in force in Mali. The agreements were supposed to end the military conflict that began in Mali in 2012 when movements largely composed of Tuaregs joined forces with Islamists to declare independence for Azawad, a historic region in northern Mali.
But the accords, essentially pushed by international mediators, have not been implemented by both sides. The rebel groups in the north were never disarmed, and of the 80,000 fighters who were part of the groups that signed the accords and were supposed to enter Mali’s armed forces, no more than 3,000 were integrated.
Moreover, the Algiers agreement actually divided the country into zones of influence. All this time, the northeastern Kidal region, part of the Timbuktu and Gao regions, remained under the control of the Tuareg movements. Government forces were not actively present in the area, entering it mainly for joint anti-terrorist operations with French forces.
French troops have been in Mali at the request of the Malian government since 2013 and led the anti-terrorist Operation Barkhane. A contingent of UN peacekeepers (MINUSMA) was also deployed in Mali, as was the Takuba multilateral initiative. Despite the international character of these missions, they were based mainly on the French perspective on security threats and thus also promoted French interests.
Over time, France’s intervention met with increasing criticism from both Malians and independent observers, as the French Army failed to address the issue of security in the country and terrorist attacks increased. In recent years, Mali has accused France of supporting the separatists, emphasizing that Paris has refused to provide active military assistance to Bamako to fight them.
Interestingly, the falsity of the French approach to the Sahel was also stated by former French ambassador to Mali (2002-2006) Nicolas Norman, who in 2019 stated: “The problem was that France then thought it could distinguish between good and bad armed groups. Some were perceived as political, and others as terrorists. And the French army went looking for this group – it was the Tuareg separatists from a particular tribe that was a minority among the Tuaregs themselves, the Ifoghas. We went after this group and gave them the town of Kidal. Then came the Algiers agreements, which put these separatists on a kind of pedestal, on an equal footing with the state. This is a major mistake.” All this kept the risk of further destabilizing Mali.
The military coup in Mali in May 2021, led by Colonel Assimi Goita, changed the balance of power in the country and the region. The new leadership, dissatisfied with the quality of French military assistance, shifted its focus to military cooperation with Russia the same year. French troops were forced to leave Mali.
Since the withdrawal of the French contingent from Mali in August 2022 and the launch of the MINUSMA withdrawal process (following a demand for the end of the mission from the authorities in Bamako), due to be completed in December 2023, old conflict lines have reopened in Mali. Mali’s central authorities are no longer willing to make any concessions and are seeking to regain complete control of the entire country, while the CMA wants to maintain its power in the north.
An intense stage of the conflict has arisen over the control of military bases left by MINUSMA. The contradictions are rooted in the 2014 ceasefire agreement, concluded on the condition that the forces remain in their current positions. Therefore, attempts by the Malian Armed Forces to occupy bases left by UN peacekeepers in areas controlled by Tuaregs are interpreted by CMA as a violation of the ceasefire. On the contrary, the Malian side believes that MINUSMA’s attempts to leave bases in the north of Mali before the deadline (the Malian armed forces’ ability to occupy them) are dictated by French interests and indicate a desire to transfer arms to local rebels to preserve a destabilizing influence.
Fueling Africa: How cooking gas can reshape the post-colonial economy
Therefore, when the Malian army occupied a military base near the village of Ber in early August, it provoked fights with CMA. Armed clashes between the sides became increasingly frequent, and the central authorities occupied the Ber.
In early September, intense fighting took place near the town of Burem, and the Tuaregs declared that they were in a ‘time of war’ with the government of Bamako. During the Autumn, Tuareg forces attacked several Malian Army bases (Bourem, Lere, Diuri, Bamba) but never gained complete control of them. Government forces, in turn, almost without a fight, took control of the important town of Anefif, opening the way to the Tuareg rebel strongholds of Kidal, Aguelhok, and Tessalit. In late October, despite the rapid withdrawal of MINUSMA, the FAMA took control of the military base in Tessalit. On October 31, ahead of plan, MINUSMA left the military base in Kidal, occupied by Tuareg forces.
French Armed Forces Minister Sebastien Lecornu spoke about the current escalation in Mali: “The real news from now on in the Sahel will be the massive resurgence of the terrorist risk. Massive. This means potentially finding ourselves in a situation where Mali could be partitioned in the coming weeks or months.” Obviously, such statements are perceived extremely negatively in Bamako, which considers them as evidence of direct influence on events from Paris.
In recent years, the Sahel has witnessed a series of military coups (Mali in 2020 and 2021, 2 coups in Burkina Faso in 2022, and Niger in 2023) that brought to power the military leaders who were dissatisfied with security problems and had anti-French views. Thus, in early 2023, the authorities of Burkina Faso, following Mali, demanded that Paris withdraw its troops from their territory. All this undermined France’s regional interests, gradually undermining its traditional dominant position.

The latest example of this trend was Niger, where the authorities, who came to power as a result of a military coup that Paris condemned, demanded the withdrawal of the French contingent from the country and declared the French ambassador as persona non grata. Despite the threat of an ECOWAS invasion into Niger and a two-month political standoff, France launched the process of withdrawing its troops from Niger in early October.
Notably, the events in Niger and the French loss of influence did not affect American interests. Since Washington took a neutral position by taking diplomatic initiatives and did not condemn the military coup, it was able to maintain its military presence in the country.
Other institutions built around France continue to disintegrate in the region. The Paris-backed Group of Five (G-5), consisting of Chad, Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, and Mauritania, operated in the Sahel since 2014. The format aimed to coordinate efforts to combat the terrorist threat but never became an influential regional institution.
Payback time, Your Majesty: Will the British Army be brought to justice for its actions in Africa?
Mali, in May 2022, became the first state to announce its withdrawal from the G-5, in effect cutting the group’s territorial connectivity. The ensuing end of military cooperation with France by Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger, and the withdrawal of French forces from these countries, finally put an end to the G-5’s activities, as only two states (Mauritania and Chad), located at the eastern and western “poles” of the region, remained ready to engage with France.
Despite the withdrawal from French control, security threats in these countries continue to grow. In Niger, a group of Tuareg who disagreed with the military coup announced the creation of a Council of Resistance for the Republic to restore the overthrown president to power. Still, no concrete action has yet been taken. The Mali central government’s conflict with the Tuaregs has diverted Mali’s forces from fighting the terrorist threat, while attacks by jihadist organizations continue in Mali: JNIM (Jamaat Nasrat al-Islam wal Muslimin, the local branch of al-Qaeda) is besieging Timbuktu, the most important city in central Mali, and attacking both Malian army military bases and civilian targets. “Wilayat Sahel” (the local branch of the Islamic State) took over vast territories in the Menaka region in eastern Mali (the Three Borders area) as early as April 2023, triggering a large-scale exodus of refugees from the region, and continues to carry out attacks in the country.
The activity of radical terrorist organizations has also increased in other Sahel states. In recent months, major deadly attacks have occurred in Niger near the border with Mali, and attacks on the army have occurred in northwestern Burkina Faso, where the local IS branch still controls much of the northern region of that country.
This situation, as well as the threat to the military regimes, forces the authorities to seek new cooperation formats. On September 16 of this year, the leaders of Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger signed the Liptako-Gourma Charter (the name of the Three Borders area), creating the Alliance des Etats du Sahel (Alliance of States of the Sahel).
Since the creation of the alliance took place amid the Malian government’s conflict with rebels and the threat of an ECOWAS invasion in Niger, it was particularly important in the agreement to include a collective defense mechanism in the event of an attack on one of its members, which strengthened the power of the military regimes.
It is also worth noting that the agreement was signed the day after a delegation from the Russian Defense Ministry visited Bamako, which might suggest that preliminary consultations with Moscow were held. In the short period after the alliance was established, its members have already announced joint operations against terrorist groups along the three borders.
The regional security structure in the Sahel is changing significantly. France’s traditional dominance, backed by a broad military presence and collective international initiatives, although declining, still retains opportunities for Paris to influence local governments. The breakdown of previous cooperation formats does not yet solve regional problems. The Sahel continues to face critical challenges, including the jihadist threat, internal fragmentation, and conflict, leaving states in the region extremely fragile and interested in finding international partners willing to help manage these challenges.
Remember, no colonialism: Why Russia did not participate in the ‘Scramble for Africa’
A new security structure that is beginning to emerge in the Sahel provides competitive opportunities for external involvement by both regional powers (e.g., Algeria) and non-regional powers (Russia, Turkey). The effectiveness (or lack thereof) of the new regional alliance, which already demonstrates the more subjective nature of the states in the region, will also play a central role in shaping the new security structure.
The central authorities in the Sahel countries still lack a monopoly on the use of force. Therefore, legitimacy crises and transfer of power problems are intensifying, resulting in violent struggles to retain influence and access to resources (as clearly seen in the renewed Tuareg crisis in northern Mali). The transition period will continue to be accompanied by growing security threats and expansion of conflict zones, and the Sahel states must figure out how to overcome it.
Therefore, the current conflict in Mali becomes particularly crucial. It is expected that the Bamako authorities will keep trying to break the armed resistance of the Tuaregs and will continue their campaign in the north, using their air advantage. However, the battle for control of military bases and towns under Tuareg rule since 2013 will be tougher. It may appeal to regional allies of both sides, as it will prove decisive in the distribution of power within Mali and the region for the coming years.

This works both ways. Eliyahu. Be careful what you wish for, you might get it.

Eliyahu also spoke out against helping inhabitants of the enclave, which has been under Israeli siege for several weeks now, arguing that “we wouldn’t hand the Nazis humanitarian aid,” and that “there is no such thing as uninvolved civilians in Gaza.”

Israeli Heritage Minister Amichai Eliyahu has suggested that his country could launch a nuclear strike on Gaza. The controversial remarks caused outrage across the Israeli government, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu suspending Eliyahu indefinitely.
In a Sunday interview with Radio Kol Berama, when asked if Israel could drop an atomic bomb on the Palestinian enclave, the minister, who is a member of the far-right Otzma Yehudit party, replied that “this is one of the possibilities.”
Eliyahu also spoke out against helping inhabitants of the enclave, which has been under Israeli siege for several weeks now, arguing that “we wouldn’t hand the Nazis humanitarian aid,” and that “there is no such thing as uninvolved civilians in Gaza.”
Shortly after the controversial remarks, Netanyahu announced that the minister had been suspended from all government meetings. Writing on X (formerly Twitter), his office quoted him as saying that “Eliyahu’s statements are not based in reality,” adding that Israel is “operating in accordance with the highest standards of international law to avoid harming innocents.”
US asked Israel to avoid killing civilians – Politico
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant condemned what he called Eliyahu’s “baseless and irresponsible words,” adding in a post on X that “it’s good that these are not the people in charge of Israel’s security.”
Those remarks were echoed by opposition leader Yair Lapid, who called Eliyahu an “extremist” and pointed out that his statement “caused harm to the families of the hostages, Israeli society, and our international standing,” urging Netanyahu to fire the minister.
The minister’s remarks also did not go unnoticed by Hamas, which launched a surprise attack on Israel last month. It stated that the comments are an “expression of the occupiers’ Nazism and [their] genocide practices,” which came after Israel’s “military failure in the face of the [Palestinian] resistance”.
Meanwhile, Eliyahu attempted to control the damage, insisting that “it’s clear to anyone with a brain that the remark about the atom was metaphorical.” He maintained, however, that Israel “must display a forceful and disproportional response to terror,” adding that this approach will show “the Nazis and their supporters that terrorism isn’t worthwhile.”
Israel has never publicly confirmed or denied having nuclear weapons. However, it is widely believed to have possessed such arms since the late 1960s. According to a Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) estimate, the nation has a total of 90 warheads.
The world is fed up with the lies that perpetuate a regime that continuously commits war crimes and gets away with it because of US/UK support and fake history. Stop committing war crimes Israel, Palestinians are humans, not animals.

Zionist-brainwashed evangelicals have this rosy picture in their minds about Israel that hearkens back to purist imagery about a “land of milk and honey.” The reality, though, is much, much different.
The truth that you will never hear about Israel from the media – because Israel controls the media – is that “God’s chosen” are among the most racist, intolerant and hateful people in the entire world.
“Israel is one of the most racist countries in the world,” explains the man in the following video, which depicts the true history of modern-day Israel that Western peoples, including Americans, are never told.
“From its inception, the whole idea of Israel as a country was based on racism. Israel was conceived as a Jewish state. And while there’s nothing wrong in principle with Jews having a homeland, the problem is that they insisted that that homeland had to be Palestine, which already belonged to someone: the Palestinians.”
“The slogan of Israel’s founders was ‘A land for a people without a land,’ but deep down they all knew that the only way to have a Jewish majority in Palestine, an Arab country, was to expel the Arabs.”
(Related: “God’s chosen” are starving out the Palestinians in their Holodomor-style genocide of the people of Gaza.)
One of the founders of Israel, Yosef Weitz, infamously wrote:
“There is no room in the country for both [Arab and Jewish] peoples … there is no way but to transfer the [Palestinian] Arabs from here to the neighboring countries.'”
In other words, the mass expulsion and massacre of Arabs in a years-long process called Nakba has to happen in order to satiate the Jewish lust for ownership of Palestinian land.
“And when you found a country based on racial exclusion, you’re going to get a culture that fosters and celebrates racial exclusion because countries that commit terrible atrocities rarely acknowledge committing those atrocities,” the video above explains.
“And the presence of Palestinians who remained in Palestine became a constant reminder, not only of the violence that founded Israel but of the constantly looming threat that they might come back and try to reclaim their land.”
Videos emerge out of Israel on the daily depicting Jewish supremacy and all the hate that comes with it. Self-chosen Israelis routinely call for all Arabs to die, for Christians to be spit on, and for Palestinians to be murdered and mocked.
In one horrific display, a group of Jewish supremacists was seen sitting atop a hill overlooking Gaza in lawn chairs while they watched the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) carpet bomb innocent civilians in Gaza “for entertainment.”
Here are some other inconvenient facts about Israel that you will never hear from the mainstream media:
• Two-thirds of Israeli teenagers are Jewish supremacists who believe that Arabs are less intelligent, uncultured and violent
• Half of all Israelis are Jewish supremacists who say they would not even live in the same building as an Arab, would not befriend Arabs, would not let their children befriend Arabs and would not let Arabs into their homes
• Sixty percent of Israeli Jews want segregation from Arabs
• Half of all Jews believe that “most Jews are better than most non-Jews because they were born Jews”
“Not only are these views widely held in Israeli society, they’re also represented in government, which codifies these sentiments into law,” the video explains.

In alleged statements made during “private conversations” with its partners in the United States, the Jewish state of Israel has said that it is willing to kill a large number of civilians in order to defeat Hamas in Gaza.

In alleged statements made during “private conversations” with its partners in the United States, the Jewish state of Israel has said that it is willing to kill a large number of civilians in order to defeat Hamas in Gaza.
Despite continued support for Israel and its agenda, White House occupant Joe Biden is becoming increasingly “more critical” of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s outsized response to the October 7 Hamas attack, especially now that there is clearly a “humanitarian crisis in Gaza.”
The New York Times, which broke the “private conversations” story, says the general sentiment among those in the know is that massive numbers of civilian casualties are likely to occur and that this is okay because Israel must complete its endgame of total annihilation in Gaza.
“It became evident to U.S. officials that Israeli leaders believed mass civilian casualties were an acceptable price in the military campaign,” the Times reported, adding that Israeli officials are constantly referring to the “devastating bombings” of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II as justification for their ongoing war crimes.
(Related: Israel is going to war with the United Nations over the body’s opposition to the Israeli genocide in Gaza.)
When lawyer and activist Steven Donziger caught wind of the Times story and the claims it makes, he took to Instagram to write, basically, that everything now taking place on the world stage makes perfect sense in light of these revelations.
“This might help explain the massive scale of civilian and child death currently taking place in Gaza,” Donziger wrote. “This mentality also might explain why Israel just dropped a huge bomb on the densely populated Jabalia refugee camp in Gaza and why it appears to be targeting civilians.”
Not everyone was thrilled with the Times piece, which apparently buried the blip about Israel seemingly wanting to hurt Gaza civilians on purpose in the middle of the article where some people might miss it, this according to Mehdi Hassan of MSNBC.
“If anything, countries around the world, especially developing nations, are moving the other way as the Palestinian death toll grows,” the Times did report. “Even European allies of the United States are divided on Israel’s war.”
Even in the U.S., where there has traditionally been the most support for Israeli Zionism, many are coming to the realization that what Israel is trying to do in Gaza is nothing short of genocide and ethnic cleansing of an entire people group simply based on their ethnicity.
U.S. officials who otherwise support Israel are even worried, with some of them stating that Israel has “no plans for what to do with Gaza” after Israel Defense Forces (IDF) troops get done with taking “some or all of it,” referring to the entire Gaza Strip.
Last week, the Pentagon petitioned Israel to hold off, at least for now, on launching its highly controversial ground invasion. This will allow the U.S. more time to deploy air defenses both in Iraq and Syria, as well as buy time for more negotiations to free at least some of the hundreds of hostages still being held by Hamas in Gaza.
Every report we have seen thus far suggests that Hamas militants are treating these captives much better than the IDF. As we reported, an Israeli woman named Yasmin Porat told Israeli State Radio in the immediate aftermath of the October 7 incident that it was IDF soldiers who were shooting and killing Israeli hostages, not the Hamas militants who were kind and even gave their captives food and water.

It Is No Longer Correct To Refer To Any Western Government As Democratic. Every Western Government Is A Budding Tyranny.
It sounds ridiculous to say, but it is a fact: the era of freedom in the West is over. The false flag attack, 9/11, was used to launch the neoconservatives’ wars on Israel’s behalf in the Middle East. More importantly, fear of “Muslim terrorists” was used to set aside constitutional protections such as habeas corpus and due process and to implement other inroads into liberty such as the Patriot Act and the mass warrantless NSA spying on US citizens. Today you can be arrested in Germany, France, and the UK for waving a Palestinian flag. In the US the exercise of free speech gets you cancelled and fired. Only approved opinions can be safely stated. The facts simply do not matter. Official narratives have triumphed over truth.
This destruction of liberty began a long time ago. I published a book 23 years ago about the transformation of law from a shield of the people into a weapon in the hands of the government which it clearly is as witnessed by the false charges against Trump and the imprisonment of 1,000 people who used their First Amendment right to protest the theft of the 2020 election from President Trump. Hardly anyone believes the charges against Trump, not even the Democrat prosecutors, judges, Justice Department and members of Congress. What is important to them is destroying their hate object. The facts are of no concern. The US is today experiencing Stalinist purge trials. Stalin knew that the Bolsheviks were not capitalist spies and so did the Soviet court system, but Stalin nevertheless had the Bolshevik leaders executed.
In the US it is not only Democrats calling for more censorship and suppression of the First Amendment. Republicans are just as alienated from freedom as Democrats. Nikki Haley, Tim Scott, and even Ron DeSantis are calling for more censorship and curtailments of free speech as a way of suppressing the Palestinian side of the story. The Democrat Left and Republican Right now agree that free speech needs to be reined in, that it can make people uncomfortable, feel threatened, and spread misinformation by departing from official explanations. Left and Right differ on what they want suppressed but they are both willing to suppress free speech in the interest of their agendas.
The current restrictions on the First Amendment began with “political correctness” in the universities. Some things could be said and others could not. Some races and genders could say them and others could not. Men could be verbally assaulted but not women. Whites could be called names but not blacks.
The orchestrated Covid pandemic brought national censorship. The COVID narrative could not be challenged, not even by distinguished medical scientists. Neither could the Vax. The facts did not matter. Inexpensive preventatives and cures–Ivermectin and HCQ–were prohibited from being used. Consequently, Big Pharma made billions of dollars from a “vaccine” that did not prevent COVID-19 but did have serious side effects–death and permanent health injury for millions of people.
Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, the distinguished German human rights activist, has led a large group of medical scientists and attorneys for several years preparing a lawsuit on behalf of the millions of people who died or were injured as a result of the COVID-19 “vaccine.” This has annoyed Big Pharma and their stooges in governments who are complicit in the crime of mandating the injection of billions of people with a substance known to be dangerous and life-threatening.
Efforts to discredit and silence Dr Fuellmich were soon underway. A judge convicted him last May of insulting people and ordered him to pay a large sum that was reduced to 2,100 euros. Thus, the German court established the principle that free speech can be insulting and punished.
While travelling with his wife in Mexico, their passports were lost or stolen. On October 13 they went to the German embassy in Mexico to have them replaced unaware that a warrant had been issued in Germany for Fuellmich on what appear to be fraudulent fraud charges. According to news reports, Mexico is outside the jurisdiction of the EU and the warrant could not be enforced, so Fuellmich was kidnapped by the German government and flown to Germany and imprisoned. His lawyers have examined the charges of fraud, which seem to amount to stealing the money of his organization and regard the charges as absurd. At the time of writing, the only evidence consists of an accusation, possibly a bribed or coerced one.
But Western governments are no longer accountable and can bring all the fraudulent indictments that they wish even against the President of the United States. The purpose of this one seems to be to discredit Fuellmich and prevent his lawsuit from going forward. After being frustrated by the refusal of courts in the Western world to try the Covid case on the collected evidence, a court finally agreed. In my opinion, to prevent accountability for Big Pharma and its government allies, an arrest warrant was issued and Fuellmich was imprisoned.
It appears that today in Germany law is a weapon against truth just as it is believed to have been in Nazi Germany. The German government with its extraordinary suppression of free inquiry, free speech, and protest is rapidly acquiring the characteristics of Nazi Germany, just as has Great Britain with the indefinite imprisonment of Julian Assange in violation of habeas corpus.

Every American I know who has spent time in Palestine comes back angry, disgusted and traumatized. I’ve yet to meet someone who says “It’s not that bad. It’s their fault and they deserve it”. I’ve met many who went believing Israel was the good guy and Palestinians screwed themselves over only to come back with an entirely disgusted view of Israel.
I came back in a state of shock. I witnessed in real life things I had only read about in history books. Things I never believed a government could do in modern times. I had a neutral view of Israel prior to my trip. During my trip, I was extremely skeptical and even pissed off several Palestinians with my lines of questioning. When I came back to the States and began processing everything… I couldn’t turn on the lights or get myself out of bed for a week. What I saw was unimaginable. It was a cruelty aimed at a group of generous and warm people with a very very clear intent- to get rid of them. And I couldn’t believe the group doing it to these people had it done to them not long ago. They took similar tactics and weaponized them against others. That is what I saw and I can’t unsee it. The children in the schools would stop me and beg me to come home and tell America to stop. They know it’s us allowing this abuse. Myself and everyone I know comes back disgusted with Israel.
And many of us weren’t even in Gaza witnessing war. Everyday normal life for Palestinians is cruel and it’s 100% controlled by Israel. And despite what we’ve been spoon-fed our whole lives, it’s not done because the Palestinians are violent and dangerous, it’s done to rid the region of them. To make their lives so miserable they either leave or violently rise up giving Israel an excuse to take more land. And the Israelis are not shy about this when you speak to them. Some might couch it with statements like, “Well we tried peace but they didn’t accept it”. It doesn’t matter how they phrase it, they still end up in the same place which is “they can’t stay” and “we want them gone”.
“Jesus believed and taught that there were Satanic Jews who served their father the Devil, and that there were righteous Jews who believed in him, whom he called his “disciples.”
Jesus, himself a Jew and a Semite, would clearly be labeled as “antisemitic” today for not supporting the nation of Israel, even though he did not support the nation of Israel 2000 years ago either.
Here are some more things that Jesus Christ, the “antisemitic”, said about the Jewish leaders of his day.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you shut the kingdom of heaven in front of people; for you do not enter it yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.
Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are.
Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous.
And you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our forefathers, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’
So you testify against yourselves that you are the descendants of those who murdered the prophets.
Fill up, then, the measure of the sin of your forefathers! You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell? (Matthew 23.)
Ultimately, Jesus was executed by these Satanic Jews.
And he warned his disciples that they too, should be prepared to give up their lives defending the Truth, as the Satanic Jews would seek to kill them also.”

In a speech this summer, Christine Lagarde cited data from the European Central Bank she leads showing that for the 20 years leading up to 2022, corporate profits were responsible for about one-third of inflation.
Corporations are a lot more willing than usual to raise their prices lately, and it’s putting more of the burden of high inflation on consumers.
That may not come as much of a surprise to anyone who has browsed a grocery aisle, kicked the tires at a car dealership or filled up a gas tank of late, but even the Bank of Canada is starting to take notice of the trend, as the central bank continues its battle to wrestle inflation into submission.
Speaking to a parliamentary committee in Ottawa this week, the bank’s governor, Tiff Macklem, told lawmakers that the bank has noticed a troubling new trend coming out of the corporate sector.
For much of the past few decades, any time businesses have seen a jump in their input costs — the amount they pay for things like raw materials, energy and even workers — “they were pretty cautious about passing on [that cost into] the prices they charged for goods and services,” Macklem said.
Their reasoning was simple: they were afraid of losing customers.
But in this bout of high inflation, the bank has noticed that corporations aren’t nearly as worried about doing that as they typically are.
“When input prices have gone up … those are getting passed through much more quickly to final goods prices. So households are bearing the full inflationary impact much more: that’s what we can see pretty clearly in the data.”
When asked how much of Canada’s current inflationary problem can be blamed on price hikes above and beyond companies’ cost increases, Macklem said, “I don’t think we can put a number on it,” but other central bankers have been far more willing.
In a speech this summer, Christine Lagarde cited data from the European Central Bank she leads showing that for the 20 years leading up to 2022, corporate profits were responsible for about one-third of inflation.
Last year, however, that ratio jumped to two-thirds, which means that despite legitimate increases in their cost of doing business, their take-home share of every consumer dollar effectively doubled.
“Firms cannot continue to display the pricing behaviour we have recently seen,” she said.
Paul Donovan, a London-based economist with Swiss bank UBS, says the scenario described above is what’s known as “profit-led inflation” and he’s been waving red flags about it for most of the past year.
While it has exposed itself to varying degrees in various places around the world, the one condition it requires is a strong narrative: consumers have to believe en masse that price increases are justified, or they won’t accept them.
“Profit-led inflation works until it does not and the point where consumers start to rebel against profit-led price increases disguised as other factors tends to be a tipping point with a sharp turn,” he told CBC News in an email.
While he stresses he isn’t familiar with the situation in Canada, he says in Europe there is ample evidence to show that consumers have reached that tipping point of saying “enough’s enough” and the best place to observe that is very familiar to Canadians: in the grocery aisle.
Last month, the British Retail Consortium noted that “fierce competition between retailers” caused U.K. food prices to decline on a monthly basis for the first time since 2021. Donovan says that’s no accident, as the major chains have started offering deep discounts to their most loyal customers after the latter group started to abandon them
“In the past few months there have been aggressive price discounts — but which apply to people who hold loyalty cards,” he said. “Consumers in the U.K. have shown themselves less willing to believe the narrative of why prices were rising, and supermarkets are eager not to alienate customers and so seek to shore up loyalty through the privileged discount scheme.”
Data from the U.S. shows evidence that price increases may have gotten ahead of themselves, too. A report by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City calculated that markups increased by 3.4 per cent in the U.S. in 2021 — enough to make them responsible for as much as half the increase in the U.S. inflation rate that year.
Jim Stanford, an economist and director at the Centre for Future Work, says its refreshing to see central bankers start to acknowledge that corporate profits have played a disproportionate role in inflation, because for too long Canada’s economic discourse has been trying to put the blame on anything but that.
“Tiff Macklem has been talking about so-called overheated labour markets nonstop for the last two years,” he told CBC News in an interview. “And now I think they’re they’re finally recognizing that is not the story — or certainly not the whole story.”
Advice for consumers for much of the past year has boiled down to either trying to cut back on expenses, or increasing income, but Stanford says it’s misleading to put the onus on consumers to solve inflation, since they’re the ones bearing the disproportionate burden of it.
“There is evidence that consumers are getting tapped out,” he said, noting that grocery store sales and overall retail sales are now declining in volume terms for the past three months at least.
“I’m reluctant to say that consumers just need to get better at shopping around. I’ve heard that advice from a dozen people [but] I think it’s unreasonable to expect that somehow consumers have to solve the problem by becoming bargain hunters and spending half their week looking at grocery store leaflets.”
He cites data from Statistics Canada showing that at one point last year, the cost of a unit of labour had increased by a little more than 10 per cent since the start of the pandemic. The per-unit profit, meanwhile, was up by more than 70 per cent over that same time frame.
But the good news, Stanford says, is that trend is starting to reverse.
“The last two quarters in Canada have seen a partial but significant return of profitability back toward normal levels,” he said.
“This actually reinforces the story that profits had a lot to do with that outburst of post-pandemic inflation because on the way up, profits and prices went closely together and on the way down they’re coming down together as well.”
