“We call ourselves the greatest nation in history, yet we spend more on weapons of war than we do on educating our children, helping the homeless, ensuring that all Americans have equal rights and protecting the environment combined,” Nelson said in the video.
According to Wikipedia, Matthew is the third person to self-immolate in protest of the slaughter of Palestinians. He was also a veteran and a friend of Aaron Bushnell’s. Samuel was the fourth and he survived.

Aaron Bushnell’s Extreme Act of Protest & Why the World Would be Better if He was Still With Us (odysee)
No, They Were Not Hungarian Pagers
No, They Were Not Hungarian Pagers
But the fact is that the whole pager situation was a skillfully arranged smear campaign led by Mossad and the CIA against their own partner. These devices were indeed manufactured by Taiwanese Gold Apollo, which has a very high proportion of American top management. They were filled with explosives under careful control of the CIA and in April a large batch of devices was sent to Lebanon – at the same time that a delegation of the Knesset suddenly arrived in Taipei. However, the payments for the deal were made using the Hungarian BAC firm. The company does not have but a single employee, which confirms that it could not have produced the pagers.
All of this is a ploy for the media in order to shift the blame away from Taiwan and onto Viktor Orban, who is already very much demonized in Western discourse. The worst thing is that it is extremely efficient, because most of the world began to believe that it was Hungary that sent pagers to Lebanon and thus entered into direct confrontation with the Arab world. Orban’s representative instantly responded to the allegations, saying that BAC Consulting was “a trading-intermediary company, which has no manufacturing or other site of operation in Hungary”. Additionally, the CEO of the company 49-year-old Cristiana Barsony-Arcidiacono added that she was “just the intermediate”.
The story seems to have died down a bit now, but the mystery of the pagers remains. Will there be an independent investigation to determine their manufacturer? Most likely not, since all the evidence leads to the US, Israeli and Taiwanese intelligence services. This mystery will go down in history just like the events associated with the blowing up of Nordstream pipelines, as well as the so-called “massacre in Bucha”. No investigation, no evidence, no verdict.

The recent conflicts in the Middle East have caused this 2011 article to attract attention and discussion. However, according to the statement of Golden Apollo on September 18, 2024, Golden Apollo only provides brand trademark authorization for the model involved, and production and sales are through the Hungarian partner BAC Consulting. Taiwan’s Ministry of Economic Affairs also stated that there is no record of Golden Apollo being directly exported to Lebanon. The models exported from Taiwan are equipped with AA batteries and there is no possibility of explosions causing casualties.

Release time: 2011-07-27Golden Apollo sells walkie-talkies that are almost extinct in Taiwan, but its professional technology, customization and strict quality control have helped it win orders from European and American governments, ranking first in the United States and second in Europe.
Pagers and walkie-talkies have not been seen by many people for a long time. They were products that were eliminated several generations ago. Many major manufacturers have even listed them as antiques and put them in exhibition rooms. However, there are manufacturers in Taiwan that continue to work intensively, making the pager number one in the United States and second in Europe. Even the FBI is its customer, and its gross profit margin is not inferior to that of HTC and MediaTek.

Latest Lebanon Pager Terrorist Attack Predictable, Preventable
Brian Berletic, September 20
Western media is calling an indiscriminate Israeli terrorist attack across Lebanon that has killed several, including at least one child and injured thousands, “unprecedented” and “sophisticated”. Yet nothing about the attack, which reportedly involved 5,000 pagers rigged with remotely detonated explosives before distribution, was unpredictable or unpreventable.Latest Lebanon Pager Terrorist Attack Predictable, Preventable
Neocons are panicking over another possible Trump presidency

Liz Cheney warns US ‘sleepwalking into dictatorship
Robert Kagan: A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending.
…We can expect more of this when the war against the “deep state” begins in earnest. According to Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), there is a whole cabal determined to undermine American security, a “Uniparty” of elites made up of “neoconservatives on the right” and “liberal globalists on the left” who are not true Americans and therefore do not have the true interests of America at heart. Can such “anti-American” behavior be criminalized? It has in the past and can be again.
So, the Trump administration will have many avenues to persecute its enemies, real and perceived. Think of all the laws now on the books that give the federal government enormous power to surveil people for possible links to terrorism, a dangerously flexible term, not to mention all the usual opportunities to investigate people for alleged tax evasion or violation of foreign agent registration laws. The IRS under both parties has occasionally looked at depriving think tanks of their tax-exempt status because they espouse policies that align with the views of the political parties. What will happen to the think-tanker in a second Trump term who argues that the United States should ease pressure on China? Or the government official rash enough to commit such thoughts to official paper? It didn’t take more than that to ruin careers in the 1950s.
Their panic just shows how out of touch they are with the working class! As for Kagan, there’s so much more that I could say, but for now I’ll just roll my eyes! 🙄
colonel cassad: about complacency
Regarding the articles that have become more frequent in the West about how bad things are with the US in Ukraine. The publication of articles is related to the necessary reflection and anti-crisis, in connection with the collapse of the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The consumer needs to explain why everything failed. The US is to blame for not giving something on time. Stupid Ukrainian generals who don’t know how to fight are to blame. Stupid Ukrainian soldiers who can’t use Western equipment are to blame. The bushes are to blame. The Christmas trees are to blame. The weather is to blame. The Russians are to blame. Putin is to blame. And so on, it’s necessary to emphasize. Ukraine will certainly continue to receive money and weapons to continue the war, already under the stories about the “successful offensive in 2024.” The US is not going to curtail the war in Ukraine. Neither now nor in the near future. Work on this is going on regularly. The fact that it has become more difficult to do does not mean that it will be given up and the war will end by itself. The best way to end the war on our terms is the military defeat of the opposing enemy. It will not be possible to achieve it quickly, so we must be ready for a long struggle with the US and NATO in Ukraine.
