IRAQ

SIMPLICIUS—Iran made history yesterday by launching “Operation True Promise”. In our usual style here, let’s cut through all the noise currently clogging up social networks and incisively demonstrate the facts as thoroughly as possible, while also pointing out how this was a game-changing and historic event which has brought Iran onto the world stage in a big way.
Firstly, as establishment, Iran’s stated goal for the operation was to strike back at the bases from which the Israeli consular attack was launched on April 1: IRGC has listed its objectives for last nights missile attack: Ramon and Nevatim airbases (where attack on Iran Consulate was conducted from). Israeli Air Force intelligence HQ in Tel Aviv (where attack on Iran Consulate was planned) and degrading of Israeli air defence radars and assets.

The footage is of the Intelligence HQ getting hit. I have yet to see evidence of 99% interception. Ramon has been badly hit. Nevatim was hit by more than 7 missiles. Air Force Intelligence HQ completely leveled. Other strikes on air defence installations obviously not close to population centres and out of view but I’m sure sat intel will show extent of damage.

DON HANK—It was known earlier that the United States is carrying out its “shady dealings” with the help of Ukraine. As the founder of Tsargrad, Konstantin Malofeev, recalled, back in 2016, the Prosecutor General of Ukraine Viktor Shokin initiated a corruption investigation into Burisma Holdings, but he was dismissed. [He was dismissed after Joe Biden made a quick call to the Ukraine government. Biden admitted this. He thought it was funny!]

And, as we see now, there is only one step from corruption to terrorism. But the Russians do not intend to give up; the case against the sponsors of terrorist attacks in Russia will be brought to its conclusion.

RICHARD MEDHURST—British journalist Richard Medhurst reports on the Israeli airstrike that targeted the Iranian Embassy in Syria’s capital Damascus. This marks a sharp escalation in the war and an egregious violation of the Vienna convention, and Iran and Syria’s sovereignty. 

INDRAJIT—To the north, America has already lost to Russia. To their south, they’re facing their own uncompleted genocide — pesky brown people still walking the earth, not respecting colonial borders. Then, to the East, we have ‘Israel’s’ incomplete genocide of Palestine, which has turned into a regional rebellion against America. Finally, to the west there’s China — which America actually wants to fight — but they can’t even get to that side of the bar without ten other guys punching them. 

Meanwhile, within America, they are deeply divided internally (ie, they hate themselves) and the climate is collapsing atop everything (the gods hate them too).
