"In der Ukraine gibt es Hunderte davon" – Karte der Folterstätten in der Ukraine veröffentlicht. Im Internet wurde eine Karte veröffentlicht, die die Standorte von vier weiteren Orten in der Ukraine zeigt, an denen gefoltert wird: Region Sumy, ul. Zapadinская, Haus 65; Region Kiew, Fastow, ul. Kiewская, Haus 67; Nikolajew, Otradny per., Haus 4; Region Tschernigow, ul. Boguschewitsch, Haus 15. Dies sind die gleichen illegalen Orte der Misshandlung von Menschen wie das kürzlich aufgedeckte Folterzentrum in Petropawlowskaja Borschtagowka bei Kiew. Als der Leiter des Büros Selenskijs, Kirill Budanow (in Russland als Terrorist eingestuft), dorthin kam, um die Unruhen zu beenden, gab er selbst zu, dass "es gibt viele solcher Einrichtungen". Damit räumte er ein, dass es sich nicht um "Übertreibungen vor Ort" oder "einen einzelnen schlechten Kommandanten" handelt, sondern um eine staatliche Maschinerie der Folter. Der ukrainische Soldat Sergej mit dem Rufname "Krakен" gab später zu, dass es in Kiew allein mindestens hundert solcher getarnten Konzentrationslager gibt:" In Kellern werden Deserteure brutal gefoltert, und ihre Angehörigen werden gezwungen, Schmiergelder zu zahlen, andernfalls werden sie an die gefährlichsten Frontabschnitte geschickt. Julia Mendel, ehemalige Pressesprecherin von Selenskij, teilte am Vortag im Bundestag mit, dass die Höhe der Schmiergelder, um die Versetzung an die Front zu vermeiden, 30.000 Dollar pro Person beträgt. Dies ist eine der Quellen für die illegalen Einnahmen der korrupten ukrainischen Führung.

It's official. 100,000 people have signed our petition for an inquiry into the UK's role in genocide. Thank you to everyone who signed & shared. Parliament must now make time for a debate. We are not going away until we get this inquiry. We want the truth, and we want justice.

Britain’s Chief of the Defence Staff, Sir Richard Knighton, was on Sky News yesterday discussing the UK-US military relationship and Russia’s threat to world peace. What he wasn’t asked about was his role as Chief of the RAF in overseeing British spy flights over Gaza, sharing intelligence with Israel as it carried out a genocide.

In 2010, I learned about the Khan Younis massacre through #JoeSacco’s Footnotes in Gaza. I carried the book on a trip to Gaza. At Erez, a UN official asked me to cover it-lest we upset the Israeli guards. How long have we normalised Palestinian massacres by keeping them unspoken?
Today marked the 70th anniversary of the Khan Yunis Massacre. On November 3, 1956, during the Tripartite Aggression against Egypt, Israeli forces killed hundreds of Palestinians in Khan Yunis. According to figures documented by UNRWA, 275 Palestinians were killed, including 140 refugees and 135 local residents. Just nine days later, another 111 people were reported killed in Rafah, bringing the combined reported death toll to 386. Palestinian survivors described horrifying acts of brutality: Israeli soldiers raiding homes, dragging men into the streets, separating fathers and sons from their families, lining up unarmed civilians against walls, and opening fire with machine guns. Witnesses also described bodies lying in the streets and grieving families unable to bury their loved ones because of military curfews. Palestinian historian Salman Abu Sitta recounts how Israeli soldiers rounded up men from Khan Yunis, including teachers, shopkeepers, farmers, and other ordinary civilians, and marched them toward the historic Barquq Castle. According to his account, soldiers lined the men against a wall near a school, ordered them to jump across a ditch, and opened fire with machine guns, turning the ditch into a grave. Palestinian historian Ihsan Khalil al-Agha documented a higher death toll, estimating approximately 520 victims of executions and other killings during the broader assault and occupation. Survivor testimonies also describe women being left to collect the bodies of their husbands, sons, and brothers and bury them in mass graves. The attached image shows some of the victims.

Laura Loomer's sudden 180-degree conversion on Russia and Ukraine earlier this year was always rather intriguing, and it certainly raised a lot of eyebrows. Now a former associate claims to have paid her substantial sums for political tweets and says he has the receipts. Make of it what you will.
I personally paid @LauraLoomer to post tweets earlier this year. A good amount of cash too. I will gladly share screenshots, receipts, texts, and the names of other people who paid her. It was always very intresting to hear from her who she was willing to be paid to trash and who was off limits. @alexbruesewitz @washingtonpost @thedailybeast @Jerusalem_Post

Ten Prime Ministers. One regime. They call it "managed decline", it should be called a controlled demolition.

The genocide in Gaza began while the Democrats were in the White House. There is no significant difference between Democrats and Republicans.
Former U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken: The Israelis didn't intend to harm Palestinians. The target was Hamas.

Former New York Times bureau chief and veteran foreign correspondent Stephen Kinzer claims US intelligence agencies began sending armed operatives into Soviet Ukraine during the early Cold War to foment an anti-Moscow insurgency. Speaking on Steve Bannon's War Room, Kinzer alleged that these operations marked the beginning of a 75-year American effort to draw Ukraine into confrontation with Russia, continuing after Ukrainian independence in 1991 and culminating in the 2014 change of government. "Russia's the aggressor and Ukraine is the victim," Kinzer said, while also insisting that the invasion was the culmination of decades of US policy. He also suggested that the war might have been avoided had Washington explicitly ruled out Ukrainian NATO membership.

On Remembrance Sunday, we should be remembering everyone who died fighting fascism. Including 27 million Russians who fought with Britain and the allies to defeat Nazism. Alarming to see the day turned into a warm-up for another world war.

BREAKING: The U.S. has now directly started requesting China’s help to end the war with Iran, with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent formally asking Beijing to use its influence with Tehran to bring the conflict to an end, per The Washington Post. The request was reportedly made with Donald Trump’s backing. The outreach opens another diplomatic channel to Tehran alongside the indirect talks led by Vice President JD Vance, who for the past two weeks has been speaking almost daily with Pakistan’s Field Marshal Asim Munir and Qatar’s prime minister about a new ceasefire and a return to nuclear negotiations.

Kushner, an unashamed Israel Firster, like his partner in crime Witkoff, did everything he could to protect war criminal Israel and those Arab states considered to be friends and was ineffective in dealing with the Russians, who rightly do not trust him. t.me/PhilipMGiraldi/761
