Palestine Action activist, Zoe Rogers, has been jailed for nearly a hundred days as I write this.
She's facing criminal charges for being apart of Palestine Actions campaign against Elbit systems. An arms manufacturer that has supplied Israel with weapons they have used to engage in a genocide destroying the lives of many. All because of Israel's blood thirst and the west's need for "a little loyal Ulster in a sea of hostile Arabism'" as British military Governer Ronald Storrs once said.

Zoe Rogers is in jail for opposing Imperialism.

The Lebanese resistance has agreed to a temporary ceasefire deal that makes no mention of Gaza. Here is what late Hezbollah leader Nasrallah had to say: the cause is one.

Interesting analysis of the new Russian weapon, recently tested to devastating effect on the Ukrainian arms factory in Dnipropetrovsk. According to Gilbert Doctorow, it doesn't even need explosives, but simply relies on gravity and speed for its tremendous impact.

Travelling at mach10, it has been calculated that such a weapon could hit a base on British soil 11 minutes after launch. The west has not way to stop or defend against such an attack.

Maybe time to pretend Trump ended the war ..?

So far, almost nobody in the west fully comprehends the Oreshnik weapon system just demonstrated by Russia. Hat tip to Ted Postol, Scott Ritter and Brian Berletic, the only 3 people I've found so far who fully understand this.

I've done the math on the kinetic energy of the submunitions (using estimates for mass), and I've studied up on what's publicly known about these weapons so far. My conclusion? NATO is done.

The west has no idea what just hit them. Russia's Oreshnik weapon system is checkmate for NATO and the USA. All U.S. aircraft carriers can be destroyed in minutes. All U.S. military bases, all underground bunkers, all ICBM launch sites, naval shipyards, etc., can be destroyed with NON-NUCLEAR kinetic energy via the Oreshnik.

There are no active treaties (that I'm aware of) prohibiting this weapon system, and it doesn't destroy surrounding infrastructure or masses of civilians. It is a devastating, unstoppable surgical strike weapon that basically drops metal lightning out of the sky like Thor's Hammer or the comets of God.

Nobody has any defense against it, and the range of these weapons, once mounted on intercontinental boosters, is global. The west must now either back off or go nuclear. They will probably choose to go nuclear out of desperation, be warned. Russia has just changed the course of warfare and achieved global dominance.

NOBODY in the western press even has a clue. They are too stupid, too woke or too arrogant to realize what just happened.

This is like playing chess with Putin and thinkin you might be competitive, then suddenly Putin's queen unleashes a flamethrower across the chess board and roasts all your pieces, setting them on fire. You thought you were playing "chess" but Putin was playing a different game called "flamethrower."

It's that big of a deal.

Let me know if there's reason to doubt his conclusions, which seem to chime with what I've heard elsewhere.

Politicians in the west fail to appreciate that the Palestinian people have collectively embraced the fate of Yahya Sinwar. They welcome martyrdom if it means that their children will live free as citizens of an independent Palestine in a liberated middle east.

Yahya Sinwar's prison novel

Shiro Ishii - Doctor "Pure Evil"

Shiro Ishii was a microbiologist and lieutenant in the Imperial Japanese Army.
During the Sino-Japanese War, he began conducting his experiments on Chinese prisoners of war and civilians as part of a secret project of the Japanese army.

Ishii's activities were very similar to the experiments of his nazi-german colleague, Dr.Joseph Mengele.

Among Ishii's “merits”: vivisection (cutting open living people), including pregnant women who were inseminated by doctors in his laboratory; attempts to swap human limbs; testing grenades and flamethrowers on living people; infecting people with viruses and diseases in order to study the process of their occurrence.

Thanks to the immunity given to him by the American Peacekeeping Army, Shiro Ishii never served a day in prison and died at the age of 67 from throat cancer.

From the September Lalkar and featured in our new pamphlet on Trotskyism:

One thing we can be sure of, if imperialist politicians and corporate media are promoting a group, it’s not because they suddenly decided to give the revolution a helping hand.

In fact, the pernicious ideology of Trotskyism has been used as a weapon to confuse and disrupt working-class organisation for well over a century.

One of the most enjoyable books I've read in a long time. Except for the disgusting anti-communist introduction by supposed Russian historian Albert Resis, it has been a very enlightening read.
