DON HANK—We used to call people like this the ruling class. These high appointees understand what American values are, and today American values are standing by Israel even as it massacres thousands of children. These values surely have to do with the importance of Zionist donors to Joe Biden and universities, but they go beyond that to the makeup of the U.S. establishment. Pro-Israel voices — including Jewish Zionists — are a significant element of corporate culture. They are a generational force. Young progressives and young Jews are rejecting Israel. But they aren’t in the power structure.

DON HANK—During the early days of the ISIS’s rise, Turkey’s open border policy was instrumental to foreign terrorists flooding into Iraq and Syria. In fact, Turkey’s involvement with ISIS runs so deep that in 2016 David Phillips, an ex-State Department and Columbia University researcher, published a comprehensive study on Turkey’s support for ISIS. The study found evidence of Turkey providing military equipment, transport and logistical assistance, training, medical care to ISIS fighters. But that’s not all. The study determined that Turkey supports ISIS financially through purchasing oil and assisting ISIS recruitment. The report also said Turkish forces fight alongside ISIS fighters (specifically referring to the Battle for Kobani). Phillips attributes all this to the idea that Turkey and ISIS share a common worldview. Saudi Arabia — another U.S. ally — covertly supports ISIS while publicly opposing the terror group.

Iraqi resistance wants to bring about a sea change in the Israeli genocide issue
by Don Hank49 minutes readDON HANK—According to Ukrainian media, after the latest Russian strikes in Kharkov and nearby areas, almost half a million subscribers lost power. The Kharkov administration is talking about a possible complete blackout in some areas of the city, given the emerging crisis situation. The operation of electric transport in the city has been stopped.
As Ukrainian Prime Minister Denis Shmygal said in an interview with Estonian television, there are now practically no entire thermal power plants left in Ukraine.
“80% of Ukrainian thermal power plants were destroyed. Russia continues to attack our energy facilities, destroying transformers and generators,” said the Ukrainian minister.

DON HANK—Why do the Israelis behave like this in full view of the world?
Because they have done this with impunity for 7+ decades, and the US always ran interference for them, censoring the damning reports in the media. In fact, in the case of the Israeli attack on the US ship USS Liberty, Lyndon Johnson forbade any of the wounded and other victims from speaking about the event!

Youhoo! Tucker! Here is why Putin calls for denazification (which you called “the dumbest thing I ever heard of”).
by Don Hank53 minutes readDON HANK—It eventually dawned on me that this Russophobia to which I was exposed – and didn’t know its name yet – was only part of a bigger phenomenon that I call Westernness, which is in fact an infectious psycho-social disease, ie, primarily a way of thinking and functioning, one of whose symptoms is a general recalcitrant mediocrity and incompetence that in America has spread throughout academe, the professions, politics (in particular), the military, the think tanks, intelligence agencies, the media, Big Religion and the general populace. But it is also a sociopathy, making it invisible to the wide public.
