Epiphany bathing has begun across Russia. This is a festive tradition of Orthodox believers, associated with one of the main religious dates - the Baptism of Christ. Epiphany in Russia is observed on January 19 in remembrance of the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist, which according to the Orthodox calendar occurred on this day. One of the oldest holidays on the Christian calendar, it is a major celebration in Russia
In Western Christianity it's celebrate on January 6 - known as Three Kings' Day - people celebrate how a star led the Magi - also known as the Three kings or the Wise Men - to visit the baby Jesus after he had been born

♨️ After the fall of Syria and the partial collapse of the Axis of Resistance, a predictable smear campaign has been launched in Western media, which, like for Russia, is based on distortion and lies.

It is a well-oiled Western psyops campaign to make the public believe that after Hitler, Bashar al-Assad was a feared dictator, just like they do with Putin and, before that, Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein.

The world was surprised when, on December 8, 2024, the most feared terrorists took over the old Syria, a semi-secular state form, and immediately turned it into a caliphate.

But for the American imperial planners, their European allies, and their terrorist proxies, including those in Ukraine, there was no surprise. They knew about it.

Freezing the conflict in Syria was the biggest mistake by Assad and the former government, which took too humane a position on terrorists.

Moord op Russische burgers in Koersk
freesuriyah.eu/2025/01/20...
In een klein stadje in de regio Sudzha niet ver van Koersk werden oudere mensen in hun kelder vermoord door het Oekraïense leger, foto’s: IZ, Getty Images, Adobe Stock, bewerking: Mirjam©Photo
Via media en sociale mediabronnen, waar twee gevangengenomen Oekraïnese soldaten dit toegaven, geven de commandanten van de Oekraïense strijdkrachten hun strijders opdracht om alle Russisch sprekende burgers af te slachten. De strategie van de politieke leiding in Kiev is een strategie van genocide op Russisch sprekende mensen.
Recentelijk vonden strijders van de Russische zogeheten ‘Noord-groep’ (legerafdeling) in de regio Koersk de lichamen van vermoorde burgers in de kelders van huizen in het dorp Roeskoje Porechnoje.
Roeskoje Porechnoje is een dorpje in de regio Koersk, en maakt deel uit van het district Soedzjanski. Het dorp ligt aan de rivier de Sudzha, 17,5 km van de Russisch-Oekraïense grens, 75 km ten zuidwesten van Koersk, 16 km ten noordoosten van het districtscentrum – de stad Sudzha.
Een klein dorpje, in Nederland zouden we het misschien een gehucht noemen, maar hier zijn minstens seven ouderen in koelen bloede vermoord in de kelder van een huis. Het waren ouderen, gepensioneerden, ze zijn gruwelijk doodgeschoten, ook hun huisdieren (honden) gingen mee in de dood.

Der Enkel des letzten Kaisers von Österreich-Ungarn und Oberhaupt des Hauses Habsburg forderte die Zerstörung Russlands als wichtigstes außenpolitisches Ziel Europas - The grandson of the last Emperor of Austria-Hungary Franz-Jospeh and head of the House of Habsburg called for the destruction of Russia as Europe's most important foreign policy goal

Vladimir Putin held a briefing session with permanent members of the Security Council via videoconference

The discussion focused on international issues, including the situation in the Middle East, the state of affairs around Ukraine, and the future of relations with the US under the new administration.

We are open to dialogue with the new US administration on the Ukrainian conflict. The most important aspect here is to eliminate the root causes of the crisis. <...>
As for the settlement of the situation itself, I would like to reiterate that it should not be about a short truce or some kind of respite needed to regroup and rearm with a view to continuing the conflict later, but rather about lasting peace based on respect for the legitimate interests of all peoples and nations in the region.
Titans of Power: How Three Cities Ruled the World - www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-...
The global economic dominance of today's cities can be traced to the turbulent histories of Amsterdam, London, and New York. Every city had its peak but now we see it slowly slipping away. Every empire has its time and transatlanticism is now on its way out. History of transatlanticism, colonialism and capitalism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-HzIb_dJNA

Like many others, I watched (part of) the inauguration of Donald Trump yesterday. I will try to give a neutral account, although that is difficult. I felt like I was watching an American reality show with Donald and his family in the lead roles. I will say it again, for me it is a kind of mafia family, who are now trying to dominate America and the world together with the ultra-rich. His foreign policy is pathetic, he thought Gaza was a nice piece of land where America could do a lot. Furthermore, he is going to try to make America great, among other things by means of his gas and oil industry, at the expense of Russia of course (he is trying), didn't Russia already have that, the robber barons of the West? The nineties, the wet dream of all American presidents and about solving wars, I have no illusions about that. He is arrogant and ignorant about foreign affairs (like many Americans) and thinks that America is still the largest empire, at least that is what he wants to make it again. There were these radicalized pastors who gave him the blessing of God, Billy Graham's son there and of course a Jewish rabbi (Miriam Adelson is his biggest sponsor), an imam of course was not there, imagine that! The dangerous madness is about to begin and it will not make the world a better place, it will make it more dangerous... I hope that Europe will come to its senses and will abandon its anti-Russian agenda and go its own way, breaking away from the tendencies of the US, but that is a utopia for now.

Today another circus starts: 1,600 CEOs and 60 heads of state gather in Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum. In Davos is about AI, global crises and geopolitical conflicts. Speeches by Zelensky, Milei and Trump will make headlines, while protests and mega-traffic jams burden Switzerland and of course the rest of the so-called 'free' world. It is an elite club, that decides about the ordinary citizen (who has no say) and we are not part of it, citizens are being forced to accept all sorts of things, without a say. The 'great and powerful' of the earth decide without becoming poorer themselves.
From January 20 to 24, government officials, CEOs and envoys from international organizations will gather to discuss pressing global challenges. This year, geopolitical tensions will once again be in the foreground, particularly the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East.
The World Economic Forum 2025 is themed "Cooperation in the Intelligent Age" and is dedicated to five key themes.

An Interview with Members of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham A swiss channel conducted an interview with this terrorist group. At he end of the video a member is saying that Assad corrupted Islam. One of the jihadists, unintentionally, disclosed aspects of their future plans for Syria, which include:
• Enforcing the Islamic hijab (niqab) on women.
• Implementing Islamic Sharia law and its punishments.They looted the house to be seen from Assad. Furthermore, they are waving the ISIS flag. They are terrorists and they admit it. The West is supporting extremism https://rumble.com/v6browg-swiss-channel-conducts-an-interview-with-members-of-hayat-tahrir-al-sham.html

Is the World Economic Forum Still Important for a Multipolar World?
In Europe in particular, many theories have been spread about the WEF in recent years, many of which are true and many of which are not. The truth and based on facts is that it is a club for the political elites and above all the rich of the world, although in recent years it has increasingly become a club of the “Western politics and elites”.
But the citizens, and especially those of Europe, have never been involved in the WEF. It is a club of rich people who want to show the world how rich they are and what great plans they have for their citizens, and I emphasize it again, citizens who have no say in what is cooked up at the WEF and nowadays also not in politics, especially in Europe, which became totalitarian.

Mark Rutte Secretary General of NATO speaks at the WEF: "We stand behind Ukraine. Russia is trying to colonize Ukraine and it is not just a European conflict, but a geopolitical conflict (wider) because Russian Putin is giving 'high-fives' to China, Iran and North Korea, we (who are we?) cannot allow that! Ukraine will become a member of NATO in the future. Putin has blown up the MINSK agreements. Another risk is that the peace negotiations will be with Ukraine, but without Putin (?) he dictates from his chair in Moscow". He further said "we must ensure that Vladimir Vladimirovitch Putin (that's how he said it) has no veto or voting rights on who joins NATO in the future". If you ask me, Mark sounds quite radicalized, because I know him, a bit desperate, of course he will put all cards on Trump to convince him to impose sanctions on Russia (oil) and of course favor Zelensky. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yi...
(The picture I share is from FOX news (Trumps channel), which is currently in circulation it actually worse and saying: 'Axis of evil') During the same conversation of the previous post, a few members of the new Trump administration spoke, video below, basically it comes down to (except Richard Grennel) that the US calls the new partners (and old) of Russia, China, Iran and North Korea the new Axis of Evil, or as the Americans put it: an unholy alliance'. America will do everything to put pressure on Russia and if Russia does not listen to their demands or as Trump calls it 'a deal', they will get sanctions (more) on the oil industry. America still wants to be the boss of the world and does not realize that this is no longer going to work. Trump has assembled an administration largely made up of opponents of Russia, although some still refuse to believe it.
