🇨🇳 China begins transition to 6G network.

Jews on Twitter have been spreading a fake video of a person LARPing as a Hamas member whereby he threatens the French Olympics for allowing Israel to participate.

Besides the expected mockery leveled at the video by Arabic speakers, non-Arab audiences have also caught on by noting that the person in the video had mispronounced “Allahu Akbar” as “Allaha Akbar.”

Of all the MKUltra phrases Jews had to get right, pronouncing Allahu-Akbar should have been the most obvious one.

🇧🇫 🇷🇺 ⛏️ Ibrahim Traore: No more mining for the West.

🔶️ Burkina Faso President Ibrahim Traoré made clear during his 11 July address to the nation that foreign powers will no longer be allowed to dictate which weapons the military receives, block the reception of specific military equipment and continue to exploit the landlocked African country’s natural resources.

🔶️ Traoré said Burkina Faso will revoke mining licences for states that continue to do so and that it is ready to mine its own resources.

🔶️ Before the revolutionary coup in Africa’s arid Sahel region south of the Sahara Desert, Burkina Faso’s neighbours in Mali had accused France of using threats and manipulation to block equipment sales between Mali and Russia, a scandal reported in local Burkinabé news sources, such as minute.bf. Word quickly spread that France had similarly blocked Burkina Faso’s access to Russian weapons, which, before Traoré’s government, Burkinabé ministers vigorously denied.

🔶️ Now, Traoré has confirmed such speculations. And Burkina Faso has made one thing clear: If you are going to use its mines, it has to be in exchange for something of value, such as access to weapons needed to end terrorism. Counter-terrorism efforts kicked off after weapons flooded the Sahara Desert following the 2011 NATO-backed overthrow of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, destabilising the most prosperous African state at the time.
