The government of French President Emmanuel Macron is under attack by the Anglo-American imperial establishment. The civil unrest that erupted across the nation was triggered by the 27 June 2023 Police killing of the 17-year old Nahel Merzouk (NM) in the Paris suburb of Nanterre. NM was driving a car without a driving license, failed to comply with police orders and for that he was shot point blank by two officers in full riot gear. NM was of Algerian origin. The next day, riots broke out in many cities across France: Paris, Marseille, Lille, Lyon, Bordeaux, Grenoble and also Brussels in Belgium. Some areas were left looking like war zones.

 

Australia’s former prime minister Paul Keating has labelled the head of Nato a “supreme fool” for his push to increase the alliance’s ties with Asia in an attempt to contain China.

Keating made the comments about secretary general Jens Stoltenberg in a statement released as Australia’s prime minister, Anthony Albanese, travels to Germany and the Nato leaders’ summit in Lithuania to discuss greater support for Ukraine.

The 23rd summit of the heads of state of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), held virtually in New Delhi, represented History in the making: three BRICS (Russia, India, China), plus Pakistan and four Central Asian “stans” (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan), finally and formally, welcomed the Islamic Republic of Iran as a permanent member.

And next year will be Belarus’ turn, as confirmed by India’s First Deputy Foreign Minister Vinay Kvatra. Belarus and Mongolia took part in the 2023 summit as observers, and fiercely independent Turkmenistan, as a guest.

After years of US “maximum pressure,” Tehran may now finally get rid of the sanctions dementia and solidify its leading role in the ongoing process of Eurasia integration.

Despite the controversial weapons being outlawed by the majority of nations, the U.S. will now provide cluster munitions to Ukraine for the first time after President Joe Biden approved the delivery. Pentagon senior official Colin Kahl defended the decision to supply Ukraine with the weapons and said that Russia's victory on the battlefield is far worse. Watch this video to know more.

The Biden administration has announced that it will be authorizing a new tranche of military support for Ukraine

‘Russian victory’ worse than civilian cluster-bomb deaths – Pentagon

A US official defended the decision to supply Ukraine with the weapons, which are banned in more than 100 countries

US fears of Russian success on the battlefield outweigh concerns that deliveries of cluster bombs to Ukraine could result in civilian casualties, a senior Pentagon official acknowledged on Friday.

Speaking to reporters, Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Colin Kahl defended the White House’s decision to approve another $800 million weapons package for Ukraine, including cluster munitions. The weapons are banned in more than 100 countries.

When they detonate, the munitions release many small bomblets over a wide area. A percentage of bomblets fail to detonate on impact, however, and unexploded elements pose severe risks to civilians for years after  fighting ends.

The paragraph below from The Atlantic is total BS. The writer, Eliot A. Cohen, is delusional about the worth of Joe Biden…:

I am deeply grateful to Joe Biden. By defeating Donald Trump in 2020, he rescued this country from the continuing misrule of a dangerous grifter and serial liar, a man gripped by vindictiveness, lawlessness, and egomania. By contrast, Biden presented himself, correctly, as a decent, experienced, and entirely normal politician. He may even have saved his country. Americans owe him a profound debt of respect and appreciation.

 

What Cohen wrote after this though is correct: 

He also has no business running for president at age 80. 

 

CORRECT: JOE IS TOO OLD TO RUN AMERICA, OR EVEN GO TO THE TOILET ON HIS OWN….

 

Ken Wyatt made history when he became the first Indigenous member of the House of Representatives in 2010.

In 2019, he became the first Indigenous federal cabinet minister when he was appointed minister for Indigenous Australians in the Morrison government.

On Thursday, he made history again, quitting the Liberal Party over its decision to oppose the Voice at the referendum.

Wyatt, who lost his Western Australian seat at the election, had stood beside Prime Minister Anthony Albanese last month as Albanese announced the wording for the referendum.

In government, he had battled, against internal Coalition headwinds, to advance Indigenous recognition and a Voice.

enough is enough — bring him home......

Threads, Meta’s newly launched social media app intended to rival Twitter, saw ten million users sign up to the platform in its first seven hours, the company’s chief executive Mark Zuckerberg has said.

Writing on the new platform soon after its debut late on Wednesday, Zuckerberg said the service would allow users to “build something great together” before revealing that it had received “10 million sign ups in seven hours.”

Threads is available on the Apple and Android online stores in around 100 countries, but its debut in the EU has been delayed due to privacy concerns.

The app has been hailed as an aggressive challenger to Twitter’s dominance of the social media market, which has come under fire due to several changes imposed on the platform following Elon Musk’s multi-billion-dollar takeover last year.

This could be seen as arrogant. But the arrogance belongs to those who “believe” in god — or whatever superior thingy in the sky somewhere, claiming that we are the “children of god”. poo…

 

I have tackled this subject many times on this site and have been overdoing somewhat. I am a rabid atheist and will not be an apologetic for this scientific position.

So, when Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” recently talked to Frank Turek author of “I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist” about the collapse of the New Atheist movement, we have to take this with ten tons of salt.

 

They even have the gall to claim that Richard Dawkins admits that religion may be necessary for a flourishing society and that the failure of atheism in providing a sense of purpose and meaning. BULLSHIT. 

 

Putin invited the little girl Raisat to the Kremlin | Russia, Dagestan, Derbent

Russian President Vladimir Putin invited the little girl Raisat to the Kremlin. Raisat came from Dagestan (Derbent). Putin showed Raisat his office, after which he invited her and her parents to drink tea with him. In the Blue Drawing Room, the head of state had a warm conversation with the Akipov family. On June 28, the President visited Derbent on a working trip, during which, among other things, he talked with local residents. Then the girl failed to talk to the head of state.

 

Over the next two months, two crucial meetings, indicating the massive changes the geo-political order is undergoing, are taking place.

The first of these saw India host a summit of the Heads of State of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) in a virtual format on July 4.

A month later the 15th BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) Summit of heads of state will be held in Johannesburg.

Little will be made of these meetings in the jingoistic western media, despite their immense significance.

US Treasury secretary Janet Yellen will visit Beijing this week, marking the second trip by a cabinet official to China since ties between the world’s top two economies deteriorated earlier this year.

Yellen is expected to discuss with her counterparts the importance for both countries “to responsibly manage our relationship, communicate directly about areas of concern, and work together to address global challenges”, said the Treasury Department in a statement on Sunday.

THIS IS A complicated ARTICLE TO WRITE.

IT IS ABOUT HUMANITY ON THIS LITTLE PLANET…

IT IS ABOUT HOW HUMANITY MANAGED ITS EVOLUTION — AND WILL MANAGE IT…

IT IS ABOUT HOW some HUMANS HAVE PRICED THEIR FUTURE AT VARIOUS LEVELS OF DIVERSITY — THROUGH BELIEFS, INVENTIONS AND STYLISTIC SURVIVAL.

 

THESE ADVENTURES HAVE MANY LAYERS DUE TO GEOGRAPHICAL POSITIONING AND HISTORICAL MANIPULATIONS

 

IN RECENT TIMES, THE EVOLUTION OF HUMANITY HAS BEEN UNDER SOME STRONG FORCES, mainly:

 

THE AMERICAN POLITICAL COMPLEX

THE AMERICAN INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX

THE AMERICAN MILITARY COMPLEX

THE AMERICAN ENTERTAINMENT COMPLEX

THE AMERICAN ECONOMIC COMPLEX

THE AMERICAN “INTELLIGENCE” COMPLEX

The whole lot making THE AMERICAN COMPLEX (Empire)
