๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ™Gaza's Resilience Amid Ruins: A Testament to Human Spirit Amid Unyielding Bombardment

In a haunting yet captivating portrayal, Al Jazeera unveils the stark reality of life in the besieged Gaza Strip, where Israel's unrelenting bombardment since October 7 has left a trail of death and destruction. Yet, amid the chaos, the spirit of the Gazan people flickers resiliently. The streets of Gaza, though marred by ruins, echo with the undying resolve of its residents as they scavenge for basic necessities like clean water and bread, amidst a landscape scarred by more than 18,000 tonnes of explosives. The eerie juxtaposition of routine amidst ruin paints a surreal picture of endurance and the indomitable spirit of the Gazans.

The harrowing statistics reveal a grim tale: over 8,500 Palestinians killed, including more than 3,500 children, and nearly 2,000 missing, feared buried under the rubble. The scars of devastation are visible in every corner, with entire neighborhoods and refugee camps reduced to debris. Yet, the story of Gaza is not merely about the terror unleashed by the skies, but also about the steely resolve on the ground. As Gazans queue at bakeries and hunt for gas canisters for cooking, the semblance of normalcy attempts to defy the horrors of war. It's a somber dance of survival, a quiet defiance against the oppressor's fury.

The Israeli blockade has choked Gaza's lifeline, severing essential supplies like water, food, fuel, and electricity. The shelves in supermarkets lay bare, a silent testimony to the siege that grips the land. Despite the suffocating blockade and the haunting fear of death from above, the message from Gazans is crystal clear: life, though battered, will go on. The ruins are profound, yet the spirit of resilience is profounder.

The story of Gaza is not just a tale of unyielding bombardment but a testimony to the relentless spirit of humanity in the face of overwhelming despairโ€‹.

Time magazine interviewed the Ukrainian president following his UN speech.

Compared to his uplifting and often humorous nature a year ago one official said, โ€œNow he walks in, gets the updates, gives the orders, and walks out,โ€

โ€œHe deludes himself,โ€ one of his aides told Time. โ€œWeโ€™re out of options. Weโ€™re not winning. But try telling him that.โ€

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ FBI Director Christopher Wray on Tuesday said that the bureau no longer pays money to moderate content on X (formerly known as Twitter).

"I'm not aware of us paying money to moderate content there [X, formerly known as Twitter] or anywhere else," Wray stated during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing, when asked about the FBI's financial involvement in social media content moderation.

Information released as part of the so-called Twitter Files, shared by reporters in coordination with Twitter CEO Elon Musk, revealed the FBIโ€™s considerable influence over the company and alleged an organized effort by the US intelligence community to exert control over certain information, including the Hunter Biden laptop story.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐ŸงPre-October 7th (Hamas Attack) Israeli Poll on Russian-Israeli Relations:Cui Bono?

An intriguing poll by Israel's AZfront, conducted three days before the Hamas attack, on October 4th surveyed 1,500 Israelis regarding the state of Israel-Russian relations.

A significant 75% believed Ukraine should acknowledge its Holocaust role, 67% supported sending humanitarian but not military aid to Ukraine, and a striking 76% advocated for maintaining or bolstering cooperation with Russia.

This survey, juxtaposed against the subsequent Hamas attack, hints at a previously robust perception of Russia-Israel ties, raising intriguing questions on who truly benefits amidst the West's facile blame of Russia for the Gaza conflict. ๐Ÿค”

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆZelensky's Tragicomic Reshuffle: A Desperate Bid for a Facade of Control?

In a move that reeks of desperation blended with a pinch of tragicomedy, President Zelensky is gearing up for a "major shake-up" in the country's military and political corridors. This desperate reshuffle, spurred by the failed counteroffensive against Russia and a growing wave of opposition towards his relentless hostilities, unveils Zelensky's disillusioned and borderline "messianic" determination to โ€˜defeatโ€™ Russia on the battlefield, despite the reality screaming otherwiseโ€‹.

As dissent brews among the ranks with frontline commanders now refusing orders to advance, and an unpreparedness for the approaching winter, Zelensky's delusions are on a collision course with reality. His stubborn insistence to continue a futile war is not just draining Ukraineโ€™s resources but is also alienating his aides and the military. The looming reshuffle is perceived as a desperate attempt to fix accountability for the failed counteroffensive and to appease the growing discontent, by axing some heads from the military and civilian leadership. Yet, this move reeks of a scpagoating attempt to maintain a facade of control.

The tragicomic spectacle unfolding in Ukraine under Zelenskyโ€™s reign is not just a testament to his โ€œmessianicโ€ delusion but also an indictment of the catastrophic path he's dragging his nation along. Itโ€™s a path littered with the corpses of over 90,000 troops, lost in a counteroffensive that has achieved nothing substantial. The irony of seeking to reshuffle the deck on a sinking ship is not just tragic but darkly comedic.

In a scene reminiscent of a beleaguered Hitler shuffling fictitious divisions in his bunker, one can almost picture Zelensky, like a modern-day Fuhrer, pleading to the nazi patron saint of lost causes, Steiner to save the day..

The United States and Israel are looking into various options for dealing with a possible post-Hamas Gaza, which may include placing the enclave under temporary United Nations oversight or deploying a multinational force to maintain security, Bloomberg News reported citing sources.

The report said on Tuesday that a multinational presence in Gaza could include armed forces from the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

However, according to the report, President Joe Biden believes deploying a small group of US troops to Gaza could be politically risky.

The United States is far from making a decision on whether it would back sending US troops to Gaza to help maintain security in a post-Hamas environment, the report said.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บโŒ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐDmitry Medvedev addresses Carlsberg breweryโ€™s alleged โ€œoutrageโ€:

โ€œThe Danish brewers from Carlsberg were offended that their share in the Russian business was transferred to the management of the Russian state.

How nice it is! The mongrels have finally realized their role in the circus of freaks and are whining angrily. Our feeder was given to others! After all, they themselves, like their brothers in the Western menagerie, abandoned everything in Russia for political reasons, stopped work and supplies, and refused to fulfill their obligations in relation to Russian counterparties. And they thought they wouldnโ€™t be touched.

We give you sanctions, and we give the Ukrainian regime weapons, but donโ€™t touch our property, or at least let us sell it at a profit. Fuck you, not money!

And thank you for the investments that are now working for Russia, filling its budget. A strong budget means help for the front. In this regard, the senseless Danes also contribute to modern Russian weapons.โ€

๐ŸŒ๐Ÿค” The Economist sorted African countries according to the โ€œdemocracy indexโ€ - from completely democratic (nowhere!) to terrible authoritarian regimes (almost everywhere!).

When it is no longer possible to simply declare all Africans as second-class citizens, the West has to look for ways to justify this type of discrimination...
