EDITOR—While most of the collective West’s leaders are tumbling from power, Vladimir Putin is undeniably stronger than ever, notes Garland Nixon jocularly, attributing such course of events to the dreaded “Zelensky curse”, afflicting all leaders that once vociferously proclaimed their desire to topple the president of Russia. Garland also analyses the horrific implications of Biden’s (America’s) imperialist adventurism, which leads inexorably to WW3 and the end of humanity.

Jimmy Dore Dispatches: Senator unwittingly reveals Ukraine War is a scam, and much more
by Jimmy Dore60 Mins readEDITOR—Probably jockeying for a position in the Trump administration, Lindsay Graham, US Senator for South Carolina, and one of the most revolting and depraved politicians ever produced by the US ruling elites (and we know this establishment produces some real prizes) admits that much of the reason for the Ukraine war is plain old conquest and plunder. With a view, of course, of triggering regime change in Moscow and later capturing and dismantling Russia. (This has been the West’s wet dream for at least 75 years if not longer). ALSO: Criticism of sickening “Hostage Rescue” raid, with US soldiers (US Special Forces?) backing up the IDF killers. It’s clear US full-bore partnership in Israel’s war against Palestinians is a war crime. The testimony is soul-crushing: “Video of a Palestinian boy in Gaza has gone viral in which he says members of his family were shot and killed by American soldiers during the recent raid to recover Israeli hostages. The boy says the soldiers were definitely not Israeli, and in addition to killing his brother they also shot him in the finger, tied his hands behind his back and put out a cigarette on his neck.

GUY METTAN—I didn’t pay much attention to it when I arrived, because of my fatigue, and the intense emotions provoked by all I was seeing. But when I woke up at 3 a.m., I was suddenly struck by the sound of the cannon. Every two or three minutes, a shot goes off, rattling the windows and lighting up the sky with an orange glow: It’s Russian artillery firing on Ukrainian positions a few kilometres from the town centre. The Ukrainians retaliate with missiles, drones, or HIMARS rockets, which trigger Russian counter-battery fire, at a rate of one or two an hour, I believe. The next morning, I was taught to distinguish one from the other. The HIMARS rockets are silent until the final explosion, the French SCALP and British Storm Shadow missiles make an airplane-like hum, as do the Russian anti-missile batteries, while the ordinary shells fall with a whistling sound.

Garland Nixon: MIDDLE EAST IN DEPTH WITH LAITH MAROUF – ISRAELIS STORM AL AQSA – ISRAEL IRAN RESPONSE SYMBOLIC
8 minutes readGARLAND NIXON—LAITH MAROUF—Garland and Laith discuss the repercussions of Iran’s “warning” (or “symbolic”) strike on Israel, an effort to serve notice to this lunatically criminal entity that its provocations and international murders will not be further tolerated. The Iranian drone and missile attack on Apr 13 was designed, as previously commented, to cause the fewest human casualties, and to gather intelligence on the Israeli/US AD network. Iran’s warning is also good for the “collective West”, including the constantly scheming Hegemon itself. In a new development, as Israel has continued its assassinations of Hezbollah commanders, Hezbollah itself has begun to target and destroy Israeli command centers. Laith also comments on the media blockade on the Israeli mass assassinations (and mass graves recently discovered) of Palestinian victims in various hospital settings—Al Shifa, etc., most of them either patients being cared for or hospital staff, a heinous crime under international law that should have made headlines all over the world, but which Western media has simply memory-holed. Of course, not a pip has been heard from the West’s top leadership, who are too busy supporting the depraved Zionist regime.

TNA—The New Arab also spoke to Michael, a 77-year-old former US veteran from Seattle, USA. He said his decision to participate in the flotilla was a way to atone for his involvement with the US army in Vietnam.
“This is a dangerous journey to undertake, and I do ask myself, why am I here? My wife asks me why I am here. I was drafted into the Vietnam War in 1965, I was just out of high school. At the time I understood what conscientious objection was, but I did not have the courage to fight against the US military and say, no!
“But now, I am older, and as I watch what is happening to the people of Gaza, I am appalled. It is not only the children, although that is what hits me the most. But now, it is the time to object to what my country, the US is doing. This is what conscientious objection is about. I am putting my body, my money, my time, my everything on the line to say, ‘I object to what my country is doing, we should not be doing this’. I want to stand up for those people in the US who agree with what I am doing and represent my country on this journey,” said Michael. Michael said he draws courage from the people of Gaza.
