Today it is three years ago that I arrived in Moscow, originally it was supposed to be for two weeks, a conference and possibly a trip to the Donbass. But it became longer, I got on kill lists, sanctions etc.., bank accounts closed, many (death) threats so I decided to stay in beautiful Russia (Moscow) and work from here. In the meantime I am well integrated, can already communicate reasonably well with the people. I thank all the people here who helped us (me and my daughter) with a visa and all kinds of other documents and red tape. Hopefully we will soon be official residents in Russia. In those three years we have experienced a lot, nobody could have seen in what a crazy situation the world stage is and it is not over, not yet and I think not for a long time...Photo's from three years ago, day (evening) of arrival...

Trump temporarily stops military aid (not only Trump but the US government) to Ukraine. In itself very good to weaken Ukraine and hopefully their capitulation (although it will take some time perhaps). But does the US really want peace, or are they preparing for another war, the hybrid war against China and maybe Iran? We will see, for now I think, America is in a bad financial situation, that is why they are maybe pushing for 'deals'. Europe is starting (a bit too late) to scale up its military complex supposedly for its own security, but of course for the war against Russia. America has also introduced sanctions (trade tariffs), in which China is particularly important. How wrong is this to start a trade war against a superpower like China, of course the US's goal is to drive a wedge between Russia and China, that was clear in the election rhetoric. Trump's administration is characterized by confusion, but one thing remains, namely the unconditional support and that is supplying weapons to Israel, so that more Palestinians, Lebanese can be killed and of course he is a great supporter of a larger Israel and the indigenous population there is in the way and that is why you approve of ethnic cleansing, which almost the entire West is doing, those who live in the Levant are victims of the expansion, Gaza is full of the bones of killed children.

The tragedy in the Ukrainian army or, so to speak, the tragedy for the Ukrainian people, especially the men who have to fight and do not want to anymore, which is very clear from all the statements I have posted here from the Russian MOD. As I always say, it is like at the end of the Second World War, when Hitler mobilized young boys, old men and even disabled people.
Captured Ukrainian serviceman: 'Dear brothers, surrender, do not waste your lives' Sergei Kuznetsov before the mobilisation used to live in a village and was a tractor driver. One day, he was caught and received a draft notice. First, he was assigned to the 67th Brigade, served in Izyum. Then he was sent to the Sumy region.
'We were placed in the road service department to use the workers as a 'human shield'. Mechanics are also deployed in the front line. There are men of 52 or 54 years old. They even sent the deaf,' recalls the POW.

The Alawite neighborhood of Daatur, in Latakia (former Syria), is under siege by HTS terrorists, every Alawite (and Christians, Druze, Yazidis and Kurds are attacked daily) must be eliminated, according to these terrorists. The terrorists of HTS are not real Syrians, they are mainly Uyghurs, Uzbeks, Tajiks, Saudis, Jordanians etc... Centralization and Islamic supremacy will not succeed in Syria in the long run, but how long will the world tolerate the genocide of the Alawites and other minorities? Of course they tolerate the genocide of Gaza already. . The reconstruction of Syria may require a real SYRIAN government, not foreign terrorists....

My latest article in Dutch, easily to be translated in any language:
Europa bereidt zich voor op oorlog tegen Rusland De voorzitter van de Europese Commissie, Ursula von der Leyen, presenteerde dinsdag een plan om de Europese defensie-industrie te versterken en de militaire capaciteiten te vergroten. “We bevinden ons in een tijdperk van herbewapening en Europa is klaar om zijn defensie-uitgaven enorm te verhogen,” zei Von der Leyen. Ze zei dat het plan, genaamd “ReArm Europe,” ongeveer € 800 miljard gaat kosten.

Volgens meerdere andere defensiespecialisten in Nederland zal de Nederlandse bijdrage vooral technologisch zijn. Namelijk drones, het Nederlandse defensiebedrijf Damen en Thales leveren deze al lange tijd aan Oekraïne, de drones doken zelfs op in Idlib (voormalig Syrië) waar de terroristen (HTS) instructies kregen van Oekraïense militairen en uiteraard worden ze al lange tijd door Nederland geleverd aan de milities en het reguliere leger in Oekraïne.

Maar dan komt het grote probleem, ze hebben niet genoeg troepen (niet genoeg soldaten) om te vechten. Er zijn allerlei scenario’s bedacht, de dienstplicht wordt opnieuw ingevoerd, Duitsland onder de nieuwe bondskanselier Merz zal dit direct doen na zijn inhuldiging als bondskanselier, volgens allerlei berichten. Ook is er de laatste jaren veel gesproken over het inzetten van vluchtelingen en asielzoekers, in ruil voor een paspoort mogen ze vechten voor Europa. https://freesuriyah.eu/2025/03/05/europa-bereidt-zich-voor-op-oorlog-tegen-rusland/
The Yemeni capital, Sana’a, hosted the international conference noscriptd “Palestine: From the Nakba to the Flood – The Importance of Palestinian Resistance in Preventing Displacement” on Sunday.

Yemen’s Stance on the Palestinian Cause
During the conference’s opening session, Dhifallah Al-Shami, a member of the Supreme Committee for Al-Aqsa Support, emphasized the importance of addressing the Arab-Israeli conflict. He reiterated Yemen’s firm support for Hussein Badreddin Al-Houthi, highlighting how the Quranic Movement—which began on Quds Day in 2001—has remained steadfast in advocating for Palestine. He noted that Sayyed Abdulmalik Al-Houthi has continued this commitment both in words and actions.
My online message for the conference as asked by the organizers.. The headscarf is out of respect for their religion
https://devend.online/2025/03/06/the-levant-disaster-part-one/ My latest article (in two parts) the first part:
The Levant Disaster - Part One
A major tragedy is taking place in the Levant. The name Levant was used to refer to the French mandate over Syria and Lebanon after World War I. This is probably the reason why the term Levant has come to be used more specifically to refer to modern Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Israel, and strange enough also the island of Cyprus. The Arabic name for the region of Levant is Shaam and comes from the Arabic word root meaning “left” or “north”, not be confused with as-Sham which is the Arabic word for Damascus, the capital of the former state of Syria. The Turkish Ottoman Empire during all or part of the nineteenth century, ruled Greece, Turkey, and most of the Arab world and the Levant. It prospered, but the Levant was occupied as people of the Levant will say.

So much for the tragic history of the Levant, we all know that after the Israel project was installed, new wars and oppression came, sponsored with weapons and money from the West, which approves genocides, and in fact has been committing genocides themselves for centuries, during their colonial past in Africa, Asia and now today the genocide in the Middle East is supported with weapons again.

They divide groups in the Middle East and especially in the Levant and set them against each other. The Arabs are still a second-class people in their eyes, the Jews are number one, because the myth about the Judeo-Christian ideology has been launched mainly by the right-wing-Zionist political groups, some of which can be called downright racist, their colonial ancestors would be proud of them.

Video 1: The Druze are rising up against the Julani terror regime in Sweida. Although it must mentioned that nobody knows with whom the druze are collaborating, the Israeli or with the other groups in former Syria.

Video 2: Problems in the of town Al-Qarah where there is a cemetery belonging to the people of Afrin (Kurd's). This cemetery is under Turkish control, 24 graves were transferred to the city of Afrin. An ulitmataum was set yesterday that after one o'clock, the transfer of graves is prohibited unless the grave owners are personally present and bring identification papers. When they arrived, they were are arrested by Turkish intelligence. Then, an armed militia ( from the HTS-Julani gang) faction intervened to transfer the graves in exchange for $450 per grave, which the poor residents can't pay. The people of Al-Shahba district and the town of Afrin appeal to the concerned countries and the current Syrian authority to prevent demographic change by Turkey and its affiliated factions. There is a threat by the armed factions affiliated with Turkey to destroy the graves if they are not paid sums of money. The people of Afrin have not and will not demand the transfer of their dead to any region or their return to them. The spokesman considers this act to be demographic change by the Turkish government.. Of course the Julani gang is affliated with both Turkey and Israel, so nothing will be done.

Video 3: Jolani factions militia entered the village of Al-Daliya (Alawites), in former Syria, shooting randomly to terrorize the residents. They said they wanted to arrest a young man because of what he wrote on his Facebook page. They took the young man and then tried to arrest five others for no crime they committed. However, the manliness of the village's young men forced them to settle for arresting the wanted man alone, with the condition that the village headman and his uncles accompany him to ensure that he is not liquidated, as happened with previous detainees. After that, they headed to the village of Beit-Ana in the same manner, while hearing the sounds of gunfire. It's is noted that the minority groups of the former Syria are now rising up against the terror of HTS 👇

Meanwhile, a lot is happening in Europe, which is trying to fight Russia with all its might. Germany has pulled a trick where the upcoming government led by the new (Blackrock) Bundeskanzler Merz, they are going to approve a motion with the old government, stating that more debts may be made for defense spending. Macron of France gave a speech yesterday (all other EU countries including the Netherlands) in which he accused Russia of having caused the failure of the 2014 negotiated ceasefire with Kiev to fail. In the Netherlands, the prime minister (pseudo prime minister) has spent or is going to spend 3 billion on defense without permission, all for Ukraine of course, while the economies and countries concerned are going to be ruined.

No peace! French President Emmanuel Macron, in an address to the nation, rejects a ceasefire in Ukraine/ He said that Russia is a threat and that peace in Europe is only possible with a weakened Russia, calling the country a direct threat to France and the continent.
