Neturei Karta visits city of Jenin and its refugee camp & are arrested

A delegation of the Jewish anti-Zionist Neturei Karta visited the occupied West Bank city of Jenin and its refugee camp, On Monday, January 9, 2023

The delegation was received by, Fatah Secretary General Ata Abu Rumeileh, and other local residents.

“We are Palestinian Jews. We want to live under the Palestinian flag, not the Israeli one, in one state, which is the Palestinian state.” A spokesman for the delegation said.

He added, “Hundreds of years ago and before the advent of the occupation, we used to live together in the old town of Jerusalem. There was no mistrust between Jews and Muslims. We used to live happily together, and later the Zionists came and formed pressure to separate us, but we reject that. We want peace and not the racist Israeli law that poses a threat to our lives, Jews and Muslims,” adding, “No matter how time passes. We will continue to adhere to our dream and our common goals. We want Palestine with its capital, Jerusalem, and the Palestinian rule, so that we can live happily.”

In conclusion the spokesmen reaffirmed that, “the existence of the Zionist occupation of Palestine and all its criminal action are in total violation of Jewish law. The Zionist do not represent the Jewish people.”

For his part, Atta Abu Rumaila, welcomed the delegation, praising their positions and their sincere solidarity with Palestine. “They entered the camp raising the Palestinian flag, carrying a message in which they said we are with you against killing, occupation and settlement, and with the Palestinian state.”

“We believe in peace. And they, too, believe in peace and believe in living together in total respect, with every person having their rights and freedoms,” he added.

Present at the meeting was also well known Maher al-Akhras, who was in Israeli administrative detention and released with no charge on November 26, 2020, after 103 days hunger strike.

al-Akhras thanked the delegation for their visit, which carries an important message of peace, in these days when the aggression and threats of the settler government are escalating.

He added, “We praise the positions of the anti-Zionist community, as its sons were residing in Palestine before the Nakba. They were abandoned as we were, and as we became refugees, they became refugees, and they faced the same torment that we suffer from the occupation.”

US may not maintain military support for Ukraine, Navy secretary says

The US may not be able to continue its ongoing support for Ukraine if weapons makers do not ramp up production, US Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro told Fox News on Wednesday evening.

US may not maintain military support for Ukraine, Navy secretary says

Propaganda (too much to debunk):

The war in Ukraine could be decided this year, former US Army general says, warning of dire consequences if Russia faces defeat

Unverified: “Certain credible sources report that a tactical nuclear option might be ‘on the table’ with at least some of the members of the Russian Security Council.”

Certain credible sources report that a tactical nuclear option might be “on the table” with at least some of the members of the Russian Security Council. Though TNW has never been on the table throughout the conflict in Ukraine and has never been discussed up until now, there are signals that a certain number of Security Council members are at least prepared to consider such a scenario.

The worst-case option under discussion is predetermined by increasing sophisticated military supplies from NATO countries to Ukraine. Security Council members are looking at the delivery of Western high-precision and long-range systems and munitions to the Ukrainian theatre, as well as the participation of Western military personnel in on-the-ground combat (so far, it appears that Poles will be operating certain equipment, as training Ukrainian soldiers takes time, and Western powers appear to be very short on time for further escalation).

It seems that the Russian Security Council operates on the idea that Western countries are prepared to supply even more sophisticated weaponry into the zone of conflict to try to derail the Russian offensive, no matter the cost to the Ukrainian side. According to Security Council estimates, the inclusion of NATO military hardware operators and the participation of NATO battalions on the ground in Ukraine will likely extend the ongoing conflict far beyond its current borders.

Western hostile movements and risky stakes-raising have already forced Putin to increase his military to up to 1.5 mln in a response to NATO redeployment in Europe closer to Russian borders.
