“”This Is Illegal”: British Labour Party Sending Staff To Campaign For Kamala In Swing States”
Luongo. But it ain’t London hiring Steele, throwing elections, and trying to get their colonies back or nothin’. That’s cray-cray. We’re just seeing things.

About time. These guys will be far less interested if it cost them anything.
“Goldman shockingly says that S&P500 will only deliver 1% annual real return over the next 10 years “
So does Cullom. And Smith. And for good reason. That’s really a best case but it will happen because it’s the maximum pain trade. Japan for 40 years. Cullom also points out what’s the Inflation return on the 100-year Dow? ZERO. And that almost makes sense, actually, you’re averaging the economy with the stocks in said economy. But seen another way, that means you get dividends. …Which you won’t get with even a 2% fee, OR if you miss in and out of any of the component companies in the tracker.
That’s what Moriarty says as well: there are ZERO markets. The only thing that moves markets is sentiment. That’s it. Why? If they needed oil yesterday they need it today. If they needed copper yesterday, they need it today. Things don’t move that fast, so why do prices? A: Sentiment. That’s it. Armstrong says the same, markets don’t move on facts, they move on EXPECTATIONS. Aka, “Sentiment”.
Trump is speaking like Hitler”
You mean like calling people “Deplorable” “Cockroaches” etc. That every one in his whole party are KKK members (A Democratic institution) even and especially the Black ones, and you need to run a coup to “Save Democracy”? Don’t ask me, ask Democrat Comedian Jim Gaffigan who said so at the Catholic dinner yesterday.
Well, since I pick on Democrats and Communists every day (but I repeat myself) let me repeat the baseline: Liberals think Conservatives are evil, but Conservatives think Liberals are misguided. Therefore when it comes to action, one shoots all Congress on the baseball field, contests and starts impeachment on every President, and has assassinated many. The other doesn’t, or show me. Because they think you’re possibly good, worthy of redemption, but wrong, and are trying to reach and educate you.
“remove college degree requirements for federal jobs”
Melei just ordered a literacy test for Federal employees in Argentina. I expect many will fail. I’m not sold on a degree specifically, but how do you test competency? A: Only by results, a meritocracy, of which we have none. That’s the whole POINT of government.
“Former CDC Director Dr. Redfield compares the #MAHA movement with JFK’s Moonshot.”
It’s subtle, but I think so. Since Americans have tuned out (why bother, everything is a lie) it takes a while for them to hear about it. Then it’s not President so to speak, so they need to think about what it is and why, and whether it’s plausible. Then slowly you’re like, yes, yes, and yes, so why not take a chance on it? It’s something we can all agree on and get behind. So slowly means a pivot to “Sure”. That’s my impression sitting here, and to some extent with women.
Kamala: I dunno, I think she sounds a lot better like this, passionate and direct, driven, as if she might do something. Now of course all that is a lie, and she’ll use the passion to say, round up black children and sell them to prison corporations, but I think it looks good. So, took four years but she finally learned one thing. AFTER the voting has started. But heck, voting started 6 months ago when they started printing and filling out fake ballots, which is why they can’t remove RFK’s name from them. Awk-ward!
All “Musk” Companies being sued. This is…um...the end of all corporations, the corporate structure under law, and possibly worldwide? Don’t want to overstate it.
The very POINT of ANY Corporation is “Limited Liability Structure”, that there are RULES about it. We all know what the rules are, from birth. What the EU is saying is there are NO rules about corporations, no laws, and Corporations don’t exist.
If they can steal SpaceX for Twitter, because Elon is a shareholder, why can’t they steal GM from Amazon, because— I —am a shareholder? What’s the difference? Literally none. Okay, let’s say it’s because he’s CEO. And why not CFO, consultant? Nevermind. ALL Corporate boards are interlocking. It’s been a scandal for decades, and the interlocking members are all Nazis from Blackrock, installing themselves as Club members on Exxon and Disney. So if a guy sits on the Board of Alcoa and also the NY Times, I can steal both of them?
The EU says yes. Corporations no longer exist. Only POWER.
I mean, yes, we all know that, that you’re all thieving criminals and Nazis, but you’re not supposed to SAY that. Now all corporations have to Re-incorporate and flee EU forever. Like Volkswagen. They LOSE all money in Europe and have only one profitable division: China, which the EU is ALSO trying to shut down.
Now, Why? Because they believe all things are a big pot of money you won’t share with us. They live in a dead world with dead hearts. These corporations are just sitting there like Viscounts, on their Feudal Estates, and you just take them, re-own re-title them, like the King. So we’ve reinvented Feudalism. They’re not. They are money FLOWS, and the money only flow when there are rules, (and work) and the rules are only when OTHER people get things: get stock, get dividends, get Boeing parts to fix their airliner and sell seat tickets. The EU is stopping ALL of that.
So? All Commerce Stops. #Winning! WE might not be the late Roman Empire, where money fled for 1,000 years due to criminal regulation, but they are.
“He’s going after EVERY state who dares to pass legislation to strengthen their election laws & clean up their voter rolls!”
Of course he is. But he can’t, that’s why we have States” and a Federal system. We forget because we use the name “Federal”, “Federal Government” all the time for all sorts of sub-meanings, but let’s re-name it as the “Federation of Sovereign States”. That law is still there, underneath, always been, never changed. The difference for 120 years is who has the MONEY. The MONEY is being cut off to the “Federal” level, the Central Committee, so they’re unable to adequately bribe the sub-states. Bye bye honey.
Since voting and voting methods are invented, established, and decided by the States (legislatures), WHAT is he suing? What basis? You got trouble my friends. And suppose Pennsylvania says “No”? AND? WTF is Garland going to do? Kick them out of the Union? Not accept their voting electors?
Literally, Kansas could “Just decide” they’re not doing public election and decide their Electors in Kansas Legislature subcommittee. By a D20 dice. Legal. So Garland is gong to…what? They say this is the deficiency in the American system, but like many organic structures, Is it? Or when a thing is not flattened in to monoculture, is it actually stronger and more resilient, although messy?
As far as I can tell: Garland has no jurisdiction. THAT is what people, reporters, even probably Turley can’t understand. They believe only in Central Power, and give it its power by believing so. GFY, sir. If you leave the ring-fence of D.C. we’ll arrest you in all 50 states for Civil Rights violations.
Republican v. Democrat Platform.
No, no TWO planks to the platform. They also kill babies. At birth. That’s a TOP platform, almost #1, and they’re fighting for it although they are already legally allowed to do so.
“would qualify as plagiarism despite the denial of the campaign. It is doubtful it will matter to many voters”
…It won’t matter, Not when they can kill babies, it won’t. There’s nothing more important than that. Yummy yummy!
“• House Democrats Say Trump Overcharged Secret Service at His DC Hotel (Sp.)

“• Zelensky’s Only “Victory Plan” Is NATO Boots On The Ground (ZH)
Covered this yesterday, but you can cut it to one sentence: “Start a nuclear war with Russia, or we in Ukraine will start one ourselves.” Yes, that’s called Extortion, maybe you’ve never met a Ukrainian before. I’m sure Presidents will love this line of reasoning, and obey immediately.
“The diplomat reiterated that Paris would “support, again and again, Ukraine’s resistance against Russian aggression.”
For PCR: see why Russia being only in Donbas, and not occupying the whole country works again? What would be the appearance if Russia were at Lviv and massing on Poland? They “Planned” this, so like J6, they just say it anyway. As if it happened. But everybody is like “Russia don’t mean what you think it mean” like, doesn’t seem like they’re planning on Paris, so…
If they’d leveled Ukraine in the first week, were ethnic cleansing, and re-building std Russian bases in their new territories, then what? PLUS they still accomplish task #1: Ukraine is so retarded they keep sending the whole nation in there and no matter how many hundred times they lose, Ze STILL tells them to fight every inch of territory, and hold to the last man. Okey-dokey then!
“Kiev has long argued that Western jets, such as the Mirage 2000s and the US-made F-16s, would be crucial to reverse the tide on the battlefield”
And that’s just one of MANY reasons they’re retarded. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dassault_Mirage_2000 Another 50 year old jet. Hey, can we send you 50 year old uniforms, 50 year old rations, and 50 year old tactics? Sound good? That’s what Australia is doing, by the way. They’re like “We’re sending a MILLION!!!!! Tanks!!!!” Yeah, every tank that is in pieces, doesn’t start, is an obsolete expensive piece of junk with a VIN number, we’re sending it for toxic disposal in Kiev. No. This is how you lose FASTER.
“In early October, NATO’s new Secretary General, Mark Rutte, visited Kiev. He stated that Ukraine will eventually become a full member of the military bloc,
Running history, Russia has written statements (but not a treaty, as if signing a treaty with the Anglos would mean anything anyway) that NATO would never move East. THEN it’s in the Ukrainian CONSTITUTION that they were neutral, gave up their nukes. AND NEVER JOIN NATO. In the Constitution. Oops! When we paid $6B to run the UN Illegal, illegal violent illegal coup to install an illegal government, with a UN illegal President, they just CHANGED the Constitution. Illegally.
This is why you cannot allow little lies, which with the Anglos (everyone I know or deal with) they will instantly turn into big, feelin’-kinda-rape-y lies.
Now their Constitution has a MUST-JOIN Nato clause, IIRC. We set up our country with a “Must cause worldwide nuclear Armageddon” as a baseline premise, same as Israel. But: same people, so…
Takeaway: Obviously it’s then possible for Ukraine to be neutral, etc, because they were for 30 years and nothing happened, nobody noticed. Wasn’t until we paid billions and billions of dollars rather than fixing bridges at home and killin’ North Carolinians that any problems started there. If Ukraine ceased to exist, no American would notice or care. Sorry. So then if Ukraine can vaporize and no one would notice, surely they can be neutral and no one would notice. Right? Problem solved. All your problems are made up. On purpose. (Mostly for money, but murdering people is a nice side benefit)

“• Russia Has “Unlimited” Energy Resources – Putin (RT)
That’s why I’m bemused reading “Resource Limitations” blogs from UK every day. Like: they own newspapers in Britain, right? They have books? Oh wait: they DON’T? All the papers like RT are BANNED? Well that explains a lot. They write at interminable length about how there’s no more oil, energy, solar, we’re-all-gonna-die, while Russia is signing “Unlimited” 100-year contracts with 1 BILLION people. Like, too small? Not enough people to get on your radar and matter? YES, I thought this same thing, for years, but THEN I read a book. I looked around me. Gawar was supposed to be dead 10 years ago: why isn’t it? IRAN hasn’t turned on the spigot yet. We’re not drilling three coasts, i.e. all of North America. Maybe put that in your equations? The seen and the unseen.
Now YES, in BRITAIN, you’re f—ked. You had oil and you pumped it. That was a stellar chance, and what did you do with Thatcher’s astonishing wealth? Added 10 million Africans on the Dole. So yes, for YOU, all these predictions might be true. Your world IS going to end because you’re retards. But you’re the pimple on the end of the nose of the world, same as Easter Island. No one else has these problems but you. You’re Iceland now.
They’re trying to tell America we’re Iceland too, and need to act the same way. Hahahahahaha! No. No we are not, and if you’d like to eat, ever again, you’ll take that back. We have 1.9 billion acres of FOOD lands. We have so much food, we’re turning it into gasoline at a loss.

Beethoven (who was black) well that music sure seems obvious and inevitable until I hand you a blank sheet of paper and tell you to write a concerto on it. Only then does it seem like you shouldn’t criticize those who do.
What else? Well, watch Jane Austen, when they have period music, it’s played in the period style, which is radically different than playing in the modern style as this woman is. So there’s another whole invisible layer here as large as the writing itself. Like the Rolling Stones or the Dead covering Leadbelly.

The Three Layers of Culpability
The Great Fright among the elite of the party ruling our country steals across the land chillingly now from sea to shining sea — as if all those ghouls, werewolves, zombies, and tormented wraiths assembled in the front yard Halloween displays send up one mighty wail of despair: Donald Trump will seek revenge against his enemies if you elect him! they scream into the pale moonlight.
Well, he ought to, of course, and remember: they are your enemies, too — the FBI thugs battering down your doors at five in the morning, the malicious US attorneys manufacturing phony felonies, the Soros-owned DAs and party-owned judges, and the thousands of spooks from agencies both known and unheard-of surveilling your every move, every purchase, every journey, every thought. Consider that it is not whether Mr. Trump might seek revenge but whether justice, and the mental health of the nation, require an accounting for the real crimes of actual persons against the people of America lo these years of the Woke Jacobin Inquisition.
Finally, as the days dwindle down to November 5, you understand exactly what motivates the three layers of evil heaping America with malice and punishment. Layer one: the officers of the political establishment, a.k.a., “the blob” or Deep State, both current and emeritus. You know now that they are motivated to stay out of courts-of-law (and, ultimately, prison). Figures such as John Brennan, Merrick Garland, Lisa Monaco, Chris Wray, Anthony Fauci, Alejandro Mayorkas, Barack Obama, and many more, exude culpability for doing real harm to US citizens. They do not want to do time… They see Donald Trump’s poll number go hockey stick and they tremble in their Beltway mansions. On the Kubler-Ross transect of grief, they are just now wavering between the stages of anger and bargaining…
..Second layer: the lawfare lawyer gang deployed to keep the blob safe from investigation and prosecution…
..Third Layer: the news media. The motives of these birds are the flimsiest: social status and professional stature. They operate within a self-referential reward bubble that provides psychological nourishment as long as they go along with the murmurations of their flock…
Now, whether Mr. Trump would actively seek revenge is a thing apart from the paranoia of his adversaries. On the one hand, he seems aware that his own place in history will rest not on looking backward to the harms inflicted on him as the sacrificial goat for the sins of “the deplorables” — the many Lawfare cases against him will likely be reversed in higher courts, or just dropped — but on attending to and fixing the many obvious, reality-based problems afflicting the nation: inflation, the horrendous debt, the libido for war induced by military contractors and neocons, the return of productive industry and jobs that pay living wages, sealing the border and expelling dangerous aliens, and stopping the race-and-gender hustles, to name a few things...
..In 2016, Mr. Trump floated the idea of defaulting on US debt, or negotiating its terms. Sounded outrageous to some at the time. Now, with the BRICs org meeting to de-dollarize their trade arrangements, might be a ripe time to make such a move. He can reverse “Joe Biden’s” 2021 reversal of his border policies by executive order on day one… He knows (and you know) that there is a huge agenda of practical problems to face. Mr. Trump does not need the aggravation of stirring up further grievance and resentment among the defeated Wokesters…
..Since Mr. Trump is best known as a deal-maker, I believe he will seek to make a deal with the blob. The deal will be for them to cooperate in the prosecution of certain key figures in exchange for not demolishing their agencies altogether. Some of these people — Garland, Mayorkas, Fauci, Brennan, and Wray, for examples — really do need to do some ‘splainin’ in front of juries… We can’t pretend that nothing happened. Most of all, Mr. Trump has to defeat the sick belief that anything goes and nothing matters. https://jameshowardkunstler.substack.com/p/the-three-layers-of-culpabilityWhere’s Diddy?

The Pentagon Wants to Use AI to Create deepfake internet users
The Department of Defense wants technology so it can fabricate online personas that are indistinguishable from real people.
The offensive use of this technology by the U.S. would, naturally, spur its proliferation and normalize it as a tool for all governments. “What’s notable about this technology is that it is purely of a deceptive nature,” said Heidy Khlaaf, chief AI scientist at the AI Now Institute. “There are no legitimate use cases besides deception, and it is concerning to see the U.S. military lean into a use of a technology they have themselves warned against. This will only embolden other militaries or adversaries to do the same, leading to a society where it is increasingly difficult to ascertain truth from fiction and muddling the geopolitical sphere.” https://theintercept.com/2024/10/17/pentagon-ai-deepfake-internet-users/Trump: Biden is Too Tough on Netanyahu

A Palestinian woman was shot dead by Israeli occupation forces yesterday while harvesting olives in the northern occupied West Bank.
The Ibn Sina Specialised Hospital in Jenin announced the woman’s death, stating she had succumbed to her injuries in the town of Faqqu’a, north of Jenin.
Earlier, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said in a statement that its teams in Jenin had been called out to treat a 59-year-old woman from Faqqu’a who had been shot in the back, adding that they tried to resuscitate her, but she later died.
Eyewitnesses reported that the woman was shot while working in an olive field near the illegal Israeli Separation Wall.
Also yesterday, Israeli settlers yesterday fired at Palestinian olive pickers in the town of Kafr Al-Labad, in Tulkarm.
Ayman Gharib, an anti-settlement activist, stated that Israeli forces arrived at the scene following the shooting and fired tear gas at the Palestinian farmers, causing several of them to suffer from suffocation. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20241018-israel-shoots-kills-palestinian-woman-during-olive-harvest-in-west-bank/ The ‘General’s Plan’ in Gaza: A genocide by starvation
Netanyahu’s war success can be only measured by Israel’s scale of vengeance, as the toll of the murdered and injured has reached 150,000. Gaza has been turned into a living hell. A war that pervasively and systematically diminished Gaza’s economic capacity, following an 18-year blockade that crippled the economy and forced upon it an ever-increasing sense of dependency.
Yet, Israel failed to bring any part of Gaza into submission. As a result, several Israeli generals, led by former national security adviser Israeli Maj-General Giora Eiland, contrived a new approach, the “General’s Plan”, to ethnically cleanse northern Gaza.
The General’s Plan is not exclusively a military strategy but rather an orchestrated noncombatant action, euphemistically termed to mask its true intention: genocide and ethnic cleansing through starvation. It calls first for the complete isolation of northern Gaza from the rest of the Gaza Strip. Second: compartmentalise northern Gaza into separate quarters and declare each section a war zone, forcing civilians to leave or become legitimate military targets.
The initial phase, which began in early October, blocked aid trucks from reaching the north and then segregated the Jabalia camp from its surroundings. In other words, genocide by attrition, one quarter at a time, in a slow motion. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20241018-the-generals-plan-in-gaza-a-genocide-by-starvation/ Caitlin Johnstone: What’s Happening In Northern Gaza Proves Israel Lied About Everything
Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has been killed. He died not hiding behind civilians or disguised as a woman as Israel apologists have been claiming for a year, but alone and in uniform, fighting Israeli forces with one arm blown off by tank fire.
Sinwar’s death will have no meaningful bearing on how Hamas or Israel conduct themselves, so it’s funny to see Israel supporters puffing their chests like this was some kind of achievement. Israel is going to keep bombing hospitals, shooting kids in the head, intentionally starving civilians, and working to steal Palestinian land just like it was doing yesterday, and Palestinians are going to keep resisting this just like they were doing yesterday.
Nothing about anything has changed. If Israel were actually killing all these people with the goal of destroying Hamas then Sinwar’s death might be significant, but Israel’s goal is not destroying Hamas. Israel’s goal is the ethnic cleansing and annexation of Gaza. This is public knowledge at this point, and is not seriously debatable. The only victory Israel’s supporters can claim to have secured here is one of revenge…
..Someone filming from their window in northern Gaza captured the moment when Israeli forces who had injured a child with a sniper drone launched an airstrike on the site after people ran to his rescue. Imagine being scared to run to the rescue of an injured child because you could be killed for it.
That’s the kind of nightmare Palestinians are facing in Gaza. One where a child injured by a flying robot could be being used as bait to draw rescuers to the scene in order to bomb them. One where people have to watch their family members burn alive right in front of them. One where they have to listen to their disabled loved one get ripped apart by dogs in the next room while they’re held at gunpoint by Israeli soldiers. https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/whats-happening-in-northern-gaza‘There is no day after’: What US, Israel want for Gaza after Sinwar’s death
Analysts say US push for Gaza post-war phase is ‘unrealistic’ as Israel vows to continue fighting in besieged territory
.Within moments of the confirmation that Israeli forces had killed Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, officials in the United States hailed the killing as an “opportunity” to turn the page on the war and move on to a “day after” for Gaza.
While offering no clear vision of what the future of the ravaged territory might look like, White House national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, described Sinwar’s killing on Thursday as a chance to “bring about a better day for the people of Gaza, the people of Israel, the people of the whole region”.President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris echoed that assertion in their own statements.
Israeli leaders, however, had a drastically different message. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the war is “not over” and pledged that Israeli forces would operate in Gaza for “years to come”. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/10/18/there-is-no-day-after-what-us-israel-want-for-gaza-after-sinwars-death At Least 31 Israeli Soldiers Wounded in Hezbollah Drone Strike Near Lebanon Border, Hezbollah says war entering new ‘escalatory phase’
On the Israel-Lebanon border, another overnight drone strike was carried out by Hezbollah against a gathering of Israeli troops in the border area.
Details are still scant, and so far, Israeli media has not published any stories on the matter. The reports coming from elsewhere indicate that at least 31 Israeli soldiers were wounded in this latest incident, which is being described as a “difficult incident.”
This is the second substantial incident of Israeli troop casualties resulting from a Hezbollah drone this week. Previously on Sunday evening, a drone strike hit the Israeli military base in Binyamina, killing four soldiers and wounding over 60 others. https://news.antiwar.com/2024/10/18/at-least-31-israeli-soldiers-wounded-in-hezbollah-drone-strike-near-lebanon-border/#gsc.tab=0 Iranian Proxies ‘Tried To Assassinate Me & My Wife’, Netanyahu Says After Drone Struck His Residence “The attempt by Iran’s proxy Hezbollah to assassinate me and my wife today was a grave mistake,” he said in an English statement on social media.
“This is the first time since the beginning of the war that a target affiliated directly with Netanyahu has been hit,” Axios reported, though details of the extent of damage have been scant. Neither he nor his wife or family had been present at the residence when the attack on the upscale Caesarea neighborhood occurred. Israel’s military appeared to be tracking the drone, which traveled some 70km from Lebanon, but anti-air defenses appeared to have failed, with not so much as warning sirens going off. [Wait, if they were “tracking” the drones, they could have set off sirens. What was really going on?] https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/hezbollah-kamikaze-targets-netanyahus-private-residence America’s ’Most Dangerous Bomb’ May Have Just Seen its First Combat Use in Yemen: GBU-57 Built to Strike Deep Underground
On the night of October 17 the U.S. Air Force deployed B-2 intercontinental range stealth bombers to launch large scale strikes against five targets in Yemen using bunker-buster bombs. The attack follows over a year of hostilities between Yemeni Ansurullah Coalition forces and the United States, United Kingdom and Israel, with a consensus having formed that efforts led by the U.S. Navy to cripple Yemeni fighting capabilities have fallen very far short of success. U.S. Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin referred to the attack as “a unique demonstration of the United States’ ability to target facilities that our adversaries seek to keep out of reach, no matter how deeply buried underground, hardened or fortified.” While the Navy’s Tomahawk cruise missiles, and air launched missiles deployed by carrier based F-18 fighters, are all not well optimised to penetrating hardened fortifications, the B-2 is considered the best optimised asset in the Western world for such operations. Previously during hostilities between the Ansurullah Coalition and a Saudi Arabian led coalition from 2015, the Royal Saudi Air Force failed to neutralise military facilities in deeply buried and well hardened fortifications, despite repeated efforts to target them. The use of the B-2 thus represents the culmination of close to a decade of efforts by multiple states using Western weaponry to neutralise key Yemeni arms storage and basing sites.
Targets of the B-2 attacks include three barrack areas and associated deep bunkers, each of which originally housed a Soviet Scud missile brigade from the 1980s onwards, and in the 2000s were equipped with North Korean Hwasong-5/6 missiles. The Ansurullah Coalition has since re-equipped with considerable numbers of entirely unique ballistic missiles, which are thought to have been developed with Iranian and possibly North Korean support. Each B-2 can carry up to 18,000 kilograms of ordinance, and has an intercontinental range allowing it to strike targets globally from bases in Missouri and on Guam. The nature of the target of the latest attacks, however, have raised considerable speculation that the bombers were equipped with GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators, which are too heavy for almost any other combat aircraft to carry…
..The GBU-57’s ability to penetrate some of the best hardened and most sensitive military sites across the world without crossing the nuclear threshold, thus giving the B-2 a particularly deep reach, makes them arguably the most dangerous bombs in the Western world. Their ‘usability’ as non-nuclear weapons is a key part of this. https://militarywatchmagazine.com/article/dangerous-bomb-first-combat-gbu57 They need to drag the US into war with Iran: Israel says attack on Iran’s nuclear sites still on the table
A senior Israeli cabinet minister revived the prospect of an attack on Iranian nuclear sites after media reports had suggested the United States had convinced its ally to focus its fire on Iranian military infrastructure.
Energy minister Eli Cohen, a former foreign minister, said on Friday Israel was “committed to preventing the Iranians from acquiring nuclear weapons, and therefore, all options are on the table, including attacking nuclear facilities”.
He made the remarks in an interview with Israeli news website Walla News three days after a CNN report said Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, had assured the US that any retaliatory strike on Iran would be confined to military targets. https://www.iranintl.com/en/202410187227 Leaked US Intelligence Documents Related To Israel’s Attack Preparations On Iran Appear Online [Who leaked, with what intentions, and is it “real”?]
A major leak of US classified documents has appeared online Saturday… or we should qualify alleged leaks of at least two TOP SECRET documents, with both marked NOFORN – which is among the highest classifications – given it indicates the specific intelligence cannot be shared with allied foreign intelligence agencies.
A breaking Axios report suggests their authenticity...
..The docs first appeared online Friday, but the Axios report has strongly pointed to the authenticity of leak.
The region has remained on edge as Israel prepares to retaliate against Iran for its Oct.1st ballistic missile attack which saw some 200 projectiles pummel various sites in central Israel, some of which were said to be Iranian hypersonics. Axios has noted that “The leak could be an attempt to disrupt the Israeli operation.” [Attempt by who?]
A US official told Axios that the alleged leak is “extremely concerning” – again implying authenticity. The leak is also being described as potential very serious breach within the US intelligence community…
..Israeli media has also begun to spotlight the leak.
Did Iran just hack and breach restricted US intelligence community servers? [Or did the Pentagon leak to rein-in Israeli zealots?]
As for content of the documents, they contain information on Israel’s military transferring advanced munitions, possibly readying them for a planned attack on the Islamic Republic. One of the classified docs has the following header:
Defense Forces Continue Key Munitions Preparations and Covert UAV Activity Almost Certainly for a Strike on Iran, 16 October 2024
Axios has further commented on the top secret documents as follows:
It also states that according to U.S. signals intelligence, the Israeli Air Force conducted a large exercise this week involving intelligence planes and likely fighter jets trained for a possible attack against Iran.
The alleged intelligence report also detailed preparations in Israeli drone units for an attack against Iran.
The Washington think tank community is outraged over the apparent major breach. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/leaked-us-intelligence-documents-related-israels-attack-preparations-iran-appear Greek dockworkers block ammunition shipment to Israel
Late last night a group of dock workers and union members at the Port of Piraeus stopped a container filled with bullets bound for Israel from being loaded onto a vessel. The action, led by the ENEDEP union and supported by other groups, was a stand against arms shipments fuelling Israel’s war on Gaza. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20241018-greek-dockworkers-block-ammunition-shipment-to-israel/ Putin says Gaza war must end with establishment of Palestinian State
Russian President, Vladimir Putin, said on Friday that the war in the Gaza Strip must end with the establishment of a “full-fledged” Palestinian State, urging the Middle East Quartet to be reactivated in order to resume mediation efforts in the region, Anadolu Agency reports. “The primary solution to the Palestinian problem is the establishment of a fully-fledged Palestinian State. The Russian side has upheld this position since the Soviet era,” he remarked during a meeting with BRICS media managers in Moscow. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20241018-putin-says-gaza-war-must-end-with-establishment-of-palestinian-state/Simplicius points out that Ukraine’s former and acting President Zelensky has stated that “Ukraine” needs either nuclear weapons or NATO Membership to be “secure”, which ignores the “security” available through friendship with Russia, the usual arrangement. There is speculation that Ukraine infers a potential nuclear threat against Western Europe here, more than against Russia, which will nip-it-in-the-bud. Anyway, they “don’t have such a program right now”. It has been rumored that Ukraine DID have such a program at the Zaporizhia nuclear plant, which made it an immediate objective for Russian forces in 2021.
Something is making Ukraine rush, maybe the “certainty” of another Trump Presidency in 3 months, maybe more than that. Hints are dropped in and outside of Ukraine.
Zelensky Once More Puts Allies Under Nuclear Shadow
A new central flashpoint around the issue of Ukraine obtaining nuclear weapons has suddenly taken hold of the narrative after Zelensky appeared to imply that Ukraine’s future can only be secured either via NATO or nuclear weapons. In fact, he said that’s what he explained to Trump and may be the real root kernel of his ‘Victory Plan’...
..A UK advisor named John Bew has played a kind of eminence grise or ‘oracle’ role in the Ukrainian war, giving citations for that claim. But here’s the big kicker. According to him, the Kursk operation was entirely a British one—which does accord with facts—and:
Starmer planned a major international charm offensive to get allies on board with Ukraine striking Russia, increased arms shipments, increased defence spending, the works. And Bew was central to this strategy. He was dispatched to Kiev personally to coordinate with Zelensky et al
In short, it was the UK’s last-ditch effort to compound some Ukrainian consensus and get a critical mass of support going, riding the ‘victory wave’ of what was to be a huge triumph. But the massive failure of Kursk appears to have unleashed the opposite, with the “oracle” John Bew abruptly but quietly resigning means—akin to Nuland’s foreboding departure—the whole British effort has collapsed… Now the UK won’t endorse Zelensky’s ‘victory plan’.
So, putting the pieces together. With Zelensky’s sudden “three month” urgency, his desperate threats of obtaining nukes, a schizo psyop about North Korean troops to drum up panic, Robert Fico’s ‘mysterious’ intimations of something big coming that will end the war, and many other small crumbs like the John Bew bailing bellwether—what do you get?
What the potpourri of intel seems to suggest to me, is everyone is sensing an end to the conflict, and Zelensky must have advanced warning that “support” could collapse even further—for instance with Trump now certain to win. As such, Zelensky could be on his last leg in designing a threat to change the calculus.
But here’s the angle most casual observers will miss: the nuclear threat is not toward Russia. You see, Russia isn’t worried about any low-grade, small yield dirty bomb. Why? Because if Ukraine dared use anything of the sort, Russia could nuke Ukraine to the stone age with impunity—meaning: no ally would come to Ukraine’s defense given the knowledge Ukraine used a nuke first. As such, this threat is meaningless toward Russia.
No, the threat is against Ukraine’s allies. It’s Zelensky’s long-awaited blackmail of his own “partners” with the message effectively being: “If you don’t save us, we’ll use nukes to force a confrontation between you and Russia, and burn the whole world down with us.” …
..In another heated conversation laid out in Woodward’s book, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin confronted his Russian counterpart, Sergei Shoigu, in October 2022.
“We know you are contemplating the use of tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine,” Austin said, according to Woodward. “Any use of nuclear weapons on any scale against anybody would be seen by the United States and the world as a world-changing event. There is no scale of nuclear weapons that we could overlook or that the world could overlook.”
As Shoigu listened, Austin pressed on, noting that the U.S. had not given Ukraine certain weapons and had restricted the use of some of those it had provided. He warned that those constraints would be reconsidered. He also noted that China, India, Turkey and Israel would isolate Russia if it used nuclear weapons.
“I don’t take kindly to being threatened,” Shoigu responded, the book says.
“Mr. Minister,” Austin said. “I am the leader of the most powerful military in the history of the world. I don’t make threats.”
The point is that the US was apparently extremely spooked and took the threat of nuclear use very seriously. This is now being used as explanation for why, precisely, Biden has been so careful of Russia’s red lines since that time, and has refused to allow Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory. https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/zelensky-once-more-puts-allies-underHe seems deadly-serious: Russia will not let Ukraine obtain nuclear weapons under any circumstances, Russian President Vladimir Putin said speaking at a meeting with media representatives of the BRICS states. https://english.pravda.ru/news/world/160947-putin-ukraine-nuclear-bomb/
Zelensky’s Plan Sells Ukraine to West, Turns Army Into Private Military Company – Lavrov
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s so-called victory plan suggests that Ukraine will hand over its natural resources to Western allies in exchange for weapons and turn the Ukrainian army into a private military company, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Friday.
“Zelensky, in these points of his, spoke so veiledly about the economic side of the issue. According to the leaks, the secret annexes… stipulate that he is ready to place all of Ukrainian natural resources under the management of his Western masters, hand over controls over them, effectively to sell Ukraine,” Lavrov told reporters after a foreign ministers’ meeting on the South Caucasus.
Some leaks suggest that Zelensky’s main purpose is to get weapons no matter what, Lavrov added. He said that Western countries had already made it clear this was an “unacceptable scenario” that increased risks for the West...
..Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova brushed off Zelensky’s “victory plan” as a set of incoherent slogans that would push NATO into a direct conflict with Russia. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday that the conflict would end when Kiev realized the futility of its policy.
Zelensky presented the three-point plan, which also includes three secret additions, in parliament on Wednesday. He proposed that allies invite Ukraine to join NATO, lift restrictions on strikes deep into Russia and deploy a “comprehensive non-nuclear deterrence package” on Ukrainian soil to contain Russia. The plan envisions an end to the conflict no later than 2025. https://sputnikglobe.com/20241019/zelenskys-plan-sells-ukraine-to-west-turns-army-into-private-military-company—lavrov-1120596517.html The US will support Ukraine within the framework that corresponds to Washington’s strategic interests – Pentagon chief

In what promises to be a major milestone in more than two-and-a-half years of war, Russia is closing in on the capture of a vital industrial asset: a Ukrainian coal mine that’s a cornerstone of the country’s steel industry.
Owned by Ukrainian firm Metinvest, the modern facility — opened in 1990 — is Ukraine’s largest mine for producing coking-coal, a specific grade used to fuel blast furnaces. It’s near the village of Udachne, about 10 kilometers west of the city of Pokvrosk, which is itself a key supply hub in Ukraine’s Donetsk oblast. Per the latest reports, the Russian army is reportedly just 8 to 12 kilometers east of Pokrovsk…
..Steel is one of Ukraine’s principal industries, accounting for about a third of exports before Russia’s invasion. At that time, Ukraine ranked 14th in global steel production; by last year, it had fallen to 24th place. This year, Metinvest expected to unearth 5.3 million metric tons of coal in the mine near Pokrovsk.
Oleksandr Kalenkov, the head of Ukraine’s metals and mining industry lobbying group, explained the implications for the country’s steel industry when the mine falls under Russian control, telling Reuters it could slash projected 2025 steel production by upwards of 80%. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/russia-poised-cripple-ukraine-steel-industry-seizing-vital-coal-mine Anti-drone buckshot (needs a close-range optical computer targeting system to hit anything coming close): Russia unveiled IGLA anti-drone cartridges for serial guns

New Claims That 10,000 North Korean Troops Are Being Sent To Fight Ukraine
Thursday, Zelensky was in Brussels where he informed EU officials that North Korea is amassing a large amount of troops in Russia, readying them to fight in Ukraine.
“We know that there are 10,000 soldiers of North Korea, that they are preparing to send, fight against us,” he said in a briefing. This includes “land forces, other tactical personnel” and framed it as “the first step to a world war.”…
..On Friday, South Korean intelligence (the NIS) sought to vouch for Zelensky’s claims, saying it believes up to 12,000 North Korean troops are mustering in Russia, and that at least 1,500 have already arrived. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/new-claims-10000-north-korean-troops-are-being-sent-fight-ukraine North Korean troops seen being equipped in Russia ahead of likely deployment to Ukraine

The soldiers are thought to be speaking in Korean although the low quality audio prevented their discussions from being fully understood.

5-Year-Old Develops Autism After Being Forced to Get 18 Vaccines in 1 Day
As part of a custody battle, a Tennessee judge ordered a family to vaccinate all three of their children, all of whom had never been vaccinated. Five-year-old Isaac immediately became ill and was eventually diagnosed with severe regressive autism... ..According to Ihben, Burnett told the couple that it was his “personal opinion that not vaccinating your children is child abuse.” He then told the couple that whichever parent would be willing to vaccinate the children that same day would leave the courthouse with custody. “I said, ‘Your Honor, we have rights. It’s between the mom and their father,’” Ihben recalled. “Her attorney whispered to her, and she goes, ‘I’ll take them down and vaccinate them today.’” “I was so surprised, because me and my ex-wife didn’t agree on much, but we did agree on that,” Ihben said, referring to their views on vaccination. After the hearing, Ihben and his wife were granted joint custody of the children, with their mother as their primary guardian. Later that day, the children received their childhood vaccines — and Isaac immediately became sick. “My daughter had previous allergies … so the doctor refused to give her all in one day. They split those … She didn’t have any side effects from what I can see,” Ihben said. “[Joseph] was in the ICU for a couple of days but seems to be okay. But [Isaac] spent 12 days in the ICU, eight days with a 106-degree fever.” Isaac, who was 5 years old at the time, was “just a normal happy kid,” Ihben said. Today, Isaac has severe regressive autism. Ihben told The Defender: “He doesn’t talk. He wears a diaper. He eats out of a baby bottle 20-30 times a day, he has speech therapy and will require 24-hour care and supervision for the rest of his life. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/isaac-ihben-autism-vaccine-injury/ Big Food Gets Kids Addicted to Food Laced With Ingredients Banned by Other Countries
“Right now, American food companies are using toxic ingredients that [in other countries] are either banned or regulated differently, in the same products that they serve American citizens,” Hari added.
According to her, McDonald’s French fries contain 11 ingredients in the U.S., but only three in other countries. Skittles also uses 10 different artificial food dyes in the U.S., as well as titanium dioxide, which is “banned in Europe because it can cause DNA damage.”
Hari also noted that Kellogg’s pledge in 2015 to remove artificial food dyes from its cereal products by 2018 didn’t materialize. https://discernreport.com/big-food-gets-kids-addicted-to-food-laced-with-ingredients-banned-by-other-countries/ This is the modern-day story of David and Goliath
The Port Hedland story: Councilors from a small mining community called Port Hedland in Western Australia recently convened at a special council meeting to bring a Motion forward with evidence of DNA in the COVID-19 vials. It contained 3 exhibits including a report by David Speicher, a letter by The Honorable Russell Broadbent MP, Federal Member for Monash, dated 20 September 2024, and follow-up letter by The Honorable Russell Broadbent MP, Federal Member for Monash, dated 25 September 2024.
In summary,
Dr. Speicher’s testing revealed DNA contamination levels between 7 to 145 times higher than Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) limit of 10ng per dose.
Mr. Broadbent has called upon the Prime Minister to suspend the use of Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines due to the alarming findings contained in Dr. Speicher’s report. Mr. Broadbent has urged an immediate investigation and suspension of these products, pointing out that DNA contamination levels vastly exceed regulatory limits and that the Australian population must be protected.
Over 50 co-signatories from around the world explain in layman’s terms the adverse health effects caused by synthetic DNA contamination, emphasizing the risk of genomic integration, increased cancer risk, immune system disruption, and potential hereditary effects...
..The motion was passed 5-2 on October 11, 2024.
On October 13, 2024, it was announced that 537 additional Australian Councils were to receive the DNA contamination report.
On October 15, 2024, a Daily Mail Australia Reporter wrote and published an article online that reports that on October 14, 2024, Western Australia’s Premier Roger Cook said that “the Covid vaccines [are] not dangerous” and said the Port Hedland council had “gone completely off the rails”. He also said that the Port Hedland council should “stick to their knitting”.
On October 18, 2024, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (the FDA of Australia) have publicly called this report ‘misinformation’ without bringing evidence forth to counter the evidences in the report, nor acknowledging the public statements made by Health Canada or the EMA on the SV40 subject matter. They did not present any new data to support their statements. In short, they reverted and referred to outdated information, and did not address this newly-raised issue. https://jessicar.substack.com/p/this-is-the-modern-day-story-of-davidNeocolonialism: Over half of African nations spend more on interest rates to creditors than public health: Report

The plants have dealt very well with heat and humidity, and have been the most disease resistant and vigorous of all of the tomato varieties I have grown. There are some browned out leaves low to the ground that I have not trimmed off. That’s all. Most of the other tomato plants have died, except Juliets, and Sungolds, both small tomato types, and both with a lot of browning and dying. One volunteer Sungold seedling from last year’s tomato-drops is doing better than most, and I will save seeds from that.
We essentially have 3 tomato seasons in central Texas:
Spring, where early production and canning are important in May, June and early July. These Viva Italias are not quite as early as Early Girl and Black Krim, in that order, but they are juicy tomatoes for canning, compared to most Roma types. Production is heavy by late spring.
Summer Heat, where the usual goal is to keep the plants alive and await September and October rejuvenation and resumed production. We always notice what makes tomatoes in August, and this August was unusually mild, so we got some Juliets and Sungolds, as expected, but we also got Viva Italias, a medium tomato in August, and with a very nice flavor for general use. This was the Big News!
Fall Rejuvenation, is the current season, and a bigger surprise, in a way, than getting some nice medium tomatoes in a mild August. These plants are kicking ass in production, which is very unusual for fall here, and they are the same plants that went into the ground in late February, showing excellent vigor and excellent disease resistance in this late season.
General: Viva Italia is a large bush, not a vine, “determinate”, but I always cage even determinate types for a long growing season. Viva Italia makes a big plant and does not sprawl into a tangle of dying vines, as most of my other types do. It is almost the only determinate type plant with any life at all in mid October, and it is thriving.
Here is one of the better reviews I found, but I ordered seeds elsewhere, and will buy some potted starts in early spring again if I find them. https://plantaddicts.com/viva-italia-tomato-plant?srsltid=AfmBOorzbCTy9TPRDyknkebreGMJ2Qyu7CdWietQSg7Z5EXIQ1XZexCQ

One question; how will these nukes ever emerge from their launch tubes before being blown to shit by incoming hypersonic missiles?
