The European Union and the United States warned about risks of the collapse for the Ukrainian economy in their statement released after the EU-US summit in Washington.

The United States and the European Union "remain unwavering in our long-term political, financial, humanitarian, and military support to Ukraine," according to the statement.

"We recognize the urgency of ensuring that Russia does not succeed in collapsing the Ukrainian economy and of intensifying our efforts to help ensure assistance meets Ukraine's highest priority needs," the statement reads.

Comment: Ukraine's economy has been propped up by internal corruption and Western funding for a while, however it seems that now that the country has been gutted, and, despite it becoming the organ and child trafficking capital of the world, and despite the West's endless anti-Russia sanctions (that were intended to destroy the Russian economy), it is Ukraine, as well as the US and EU, that is suffering the worst of the burgeoning economic crisis:

Russia terminates agreement on cross-border cooperation with Finland

Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed a decree terminating the agreement between Russia and Finland on promoting cross-border cooperation. The document was published on the official Internet portal of legal information.

"To terminate the agreement between the government of the Russian Federation and the government of the Finnish Republic on promoting cross-border cooperation between the Russian Federation and the Finnish Republic, signed in Helsinki on April 13, 2012," the order says.

The Russian Foreign Ministry has been instructed to notify the other party of the decision.

Comment: Considering the animosity that some of these border countries pose, due to their near total subservience to the Western hegemon's agenda, it's perhaps a reflection of Russia's patience that it didn't terminate this agreement sooner. It may also signal concern within Moscow that the potential threat they pose is expected to increase.

Flashback Best of the Web: 5 rabbis and 6 politicians among 44 arrested in New Jersey, accused of human organ trafficking and money-laundering

That's a lot of rabbis
At least some of the millions of dollars allegedly laundered by five of the rabbis arrested last week in the US came from Israeli sources, The Jerusalem Post has learned.

According to court documents obtained by the Post, one of the rabbis detained, Eliahu Ben-Haim, used a source in Israel to supply money through "cash houses" in exchange for a 1.5 percent fee.

Mickey Rosenfeld, a spokesman for the Israel Police, said Friday that Israeli police had not been involved in the investigation. He declined to comment further. Former Jerusalem Police chief Mickey Levy said Friday that Israeli authorities were not yet involved, but he didn't rule out such cooperation at a later stage in the probe.

In an interview on Israel Radio, he stressed that there was "no investigation against the Jewish community, only against alleged criminals."

The FBI revealed, however, that among the 44 people arrested on Thursday was a second Israeli accused of sourcing cash. Authorities arrested Levi Deutsch, charging him with funding the bank checks that passed through the rabbis' charitable organizations, according to court documents.

Flashback Best of the Web: Prof Yehuda Hiss: The Missing Link in the Theft of Palestinian Organs?

The Autopsy Surgeon Aftonbladet Forgot

The hyperventilating by Israel's leaders over a story published in a Swedish newspaper last month suggesting that the Israeli army assisted in organ theft from Palestinians has distracted attention from the disturbing allegations made by Palestinian families that were the basis of the article's central claim.

The families' fears that relatives, killed by the Israeli army, had body parts removed during unauthorised autopsies performed in Israel have been overshadowed by accusations of a "blood libel" directed against the reporter, Donald Bostrom, the Aftonbladet newspaper, as well as the Swedish government and people.

I have no idea whether the story is true. Like most journalists working in Israel and Palestine, I have heard such rumours before. Until Bostrom wrote his piece, no Western journalist, as far as I know, had investigated them. After so many years, the assumption by journalists was that there was little hope of finding evidence - apart from literally by digging up the corpses. Doubtless, the inevitable charge of anti-semitism such reports attract acted as a powerful deterrent too.

Flashback Best of the Web: Gaza's baffling burnt organs, torn tissues

Doctors, Arabs and foreigners, who have been to the Gaza Strip in recent days are scratching their heads trying to figure out the cause of the abnormal injuries suffered by Palestinian civilians.

"I have not seen anything like this in my many years of professional experience," Asharf Mohamed, an Egyptian doctor, told IslamOnline.net.

He recalls people being admitted to hospital with burnt organs, lacerated tissues or even without the lower half of their bodies.

"Many of the injuries looked like as if being cut off with a knife or something similar."

The doctor said the abnormal injuries suggest Israel's use of unconventional weapons during its three-week onslaught against the densely-populated Gaza Strip, which has so far killed more than 1200 people.

"Most of these wounds are caused by Israel's use of banned and experimental weapons. They are killing them with DIME bombs."

White House berated for posting photo of US troops in Israel: 'They doxxed our own special forces'

'Is the White House really this stupid or are they just trying to get people targeted?' Fox News contributor Sara Carter asked on X.

The White House took serious heat on social media Thursday for posting an image of President Biden meeting with U.S. troops in Israel without obscuring their identities.

Though the White House account deleted the photo soon after sharing it on Instagram, X users ripped Biden's team for the dangerous mistake, accusing the administration of "compromising" the troops' identities while they were in Israel defending U.S. interests in wake of Hamas' terrorist attack on the U.S. allied country.

SOTT Focus: Evidence That an Israeli Jet Dropped an Air Burst Bomb on the al-Ahli Hospital Courtyard

Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital Gaza
Screen grab captured from a video shows the doctors of the al-Shifa Hospital making a press statement among the corpses after the injured and dead are brought there following the Israeli attack on Gaza's Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital, in Gaza City, Gaza on October 17, 2023
It's true that Israel didn't "bomb the al-Ahli hospital" in Gaza on the night of Oct. 17th 2023. The evidence suggests it did something much worse.

As is the case with all other hospitals in Gaza, al-Ahli hospital had become a refuge for the thousands of people internally displaced in Gaza due to Israel's massive bombing campaign that began on Oct. 7th. On the night of Oct. 17th, hundreds of Palestinian men, women and children had congregated in the courtyard of the hospital (the hospital itself being already full) because they believed it to be a relatively safe haven from Israeli bombs.
Canon Richard Sewell, the dean of St George's College in Jerusalem, told the BBC that about 1,000 displaced people were sheltering in the courtyard when it was hit, and about 600 patients and staff were inside the building.
Not only had the IDF already warned this hospital in the three consecutive days before the explosion that it would be attacked, they actually attacked it on Oct. 14th, hitting the cancer ward. Since Oct. 7th, the WHO has reported 59 attacks on healthcare establishments in Gaza City and 137 across the entire territory of the Gaza Strip.

Note also that, in the past week, Israeli political and military elite have publicly stated that they view all Palestinian resistance groups as "literal Nazis" and by implication the Palestinian people as "Nazi sympathizers", and therefore "subhuman" and not entitled to the same rights as "normal" human beings.

Initially, and based on claims by Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) and hospital staff, the media reported that Israel had bombed the hospital, "killing hundreds of people." Within a day however, the IDF claimed that the explosion was in fact a result of a PIJ rocket that "misfired" and hit the area, and provided evidence to "prove" it.

Oversight Chair Comer releases evidence of direct payment to Joe Biden

House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) today announced the committee obtained bank records revealing a $200,000 direct payment from James and Sara Biden to Joe Biden in the form of a personal check. In September, Chairman Comer issued three subpoenas for Hunter and James Biden's personal and business bank records.

In 2018, James Biden received $600,000 in loans from, Americore — a financially distressed and failing rural hospital operator. According to bankruptcy court documents, James Biden received these loans "based upon representations that his last name, 'Biden,' could 'open doors' and that he could obtain a large investment from the Middle East based on his political connections."

On March 1, 2018, Americore wired a $200,000 loan into James and Sara Biden's personal bank account - not their business bank account. On the same day, James Biden wrote a $200,000 check from this same personal bank account to Joe Biden.

Russia will 'pay the price' for supporting Gaza: Netanyahu deputy

Since the start of the war in Gaza, Israeli officials have taken to western media outlets to claim all Gazans are "Nazis" or "terrorists" that need to be eradicated...

During a live interview on Russia's state-run broadcaster RT, Israeli lawmaker Amir Weitmann threatened to make Moscow "pay the price" for allegedly supporting the Palestinian resistance in Gaza.

"We're going to finish this war. We're going to win because we're stronger. After this, Russia will pay the price. Believe me, Russia will pay the price," Weitmann, the head of the libertarian caucus in Israel's ruling Likud Party, told the RT news anchor.
