Jeremy Corbyn and the British Jews

Jeremy Corbyn
British Jews have made no secret of their united political opposition to Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour party under his direction. Since Corbyn's selection as its leader, the Labour party has been subjected to a relentless defamation campaign by the MSM and Jewish bodies. The Jewish anti Corbyn campaign rapidly devolved into a ruthless purge conducted by the Jewish Labour Movement and the Labour Friends of Israel. And then it didn't take long before we saw some clear evidence that the assault against Corbyn was directed by Tel Aviv.

The reaction of many prominent Jewish voices and Jewish media outlets to Corbyn's recent electoral success leaves no room for doubt - we are witnessing an emerging clash between the Brits and Judea.

On June 9th just a few hours after Corbyn's popularity amongst Brits was formally established, Stephen Pollard, the editor of the staunch Zionist Jewish Chronicle, wrote in The Daily Telegraph (AKA The Daily Tel Aviv) an extended tirade about the Brits, the gist of which is captured in the headline: "to the millions of people who voted for Jeremy Corbyn: you scare me."

Russian-backed Syrian offensive gains 5,000 square kilometers of territory in just four months

December 2016 was a good month for the Syrian army. It finally expelled rebel forces from eastern Aleppo thus taking full control of Syria's most populous city. But it was not without drawbacks.

So many of best Syrian units were in Aleppo that defense of Palmyra was left to easily-spooked second string formations. ISIS took advantage of that, launched a shock offensive of its own and quickly took the town, as well as chased the defenders a further 60 kilometers -- all the way back to the T4 airbase.

At this point the Syrian government controlled less of central Syria than ever since the start of Russian military intervention in September 2015. On a map it looked like this:

Question

Is Tajikistan the next front in the Iranian-Saudi proxy war?

Tajikistan map
There are signs that this pivotal Central Asian country is turning into the next zone of rivalry between Iran and Saudi Arabia, which could have serious implications for Russia, China, and Pakistan's national security.

The Iranian-Saudi rivalry is undoubtedly centered on the Mideast, but it's also creeping into Central Asia, too. Largely ignored by both the Mainstream and Alternative Media, the impoverished but strategically positioned state of Tajikistan has suddenly emerged as a focal point of competition between these two Great Powers. Iran's traditional legacy of historic, ethnic, and linguistic ties with Tajikistan is being "balanced" by Riyadh's recent financial outreaches to Dushanbe, though it remains to be seen just how adroitly President Rahmon can manage his country's relations with these two feuding parties.

Top Iranian general makes appearance at Syrian-Iraqi border, just 20 km from US base

Last Friday the Syrian army and allied militias broke through to the Syrian-Iraqi border in southern Syria. Path of advance took it just to the east of the US-declared kill zone for pro-government forces which the Pentagon declared around its base at al-Tanf. By setting themselves to the east of Americans the Syrians have now probably cut off the US military and proxy forces from taking over any more of southern Syria.

The new Syrian army base on the Iraqi border lies just 20 kilometers from the second US-rebel base in southern Syria which was set up just earlier this month.

Humongous ISIS convoy allowed to escape Raqqa to fight the Syrian Army, gets blasted by Russia

ISIS convoy
Al-Masdar News has obtained jaw-dropping footage from northern Syria suggesting the US-led coalition has allowed hundreds of ISIS vehicles to leave Raqqa city for areas controlled by the Syrian Arab Army (SAA).

Despite Kurdish and American drones hovering above Raqqa on all flanks, the Islamic State convoy remained completely untouched by coalition airstrikes, thus suggesting an under-the-table deal may have been struck between the warring parties.

According to an Al-Masdar News researcher, the footage could be traced back to earlier this month while the convoy in the video later was bombed by the Russian Air Force.

U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said on Monday that North Korea's advancing missile and nuclear programs were the "most urgent" threat to national security and that its means to deliver them had increased in speed and scope.

"The regime's nuclear weapons program is a clear and present danger to all, and the regime's provocative actions, manifestly illegal under international law, have not abated despite United Nations' censure and sanctions," Mattis said in a written statement to the House Armed Services Committee.

"The most urgent and dangerous threat to peace and security is North Korea," the statement added. "North Korea's continued pursuit of nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them has increased in pace and scope."

Pyongyang threatens to strike New York in response to 5-month-old Trump tweet

Pyongyang says its nuclear weapons can hit New York, and that such a strike "might be proven in practice." It's a much-delayed response to a January tweet from Donald Trump, in which he said that a North Korean strike on the US "won't happen."

"The DPRK is about 10,400km far away from New York. But this is just not a long distance for its strike today," an opinion piece in the state-run Rodong Sinmun stated on Monday.

The article, titled 'US hostile policy is bound to go bankrupt', goes on to state that "the US is feeling uneasy as this might be proven in practice."

"This is because its hostile policy will end in futile when the DPRK conducts the test-fire of an ICBM capable of precisely striking any place on the US mainland."

Putin lays it out: US nurtured Al-Qaeda & supported terrorists in Chechnya and 'should have foreseen it would backfire'

The US is to blame for the rise of Al-Qaeda and its late mastermind Osama bin Laden, which it empowered to fight Soviet troops in Afghanistan, Vladimir Putin told Oliver Stone. Putin also said there is proof the CIA supported terrorists in Russia's Chechnya.

In the first episode of Stone's hugely anticipated Showtime series, which aired Monday night, the Russian leader reflected on the origin of Islamic extremist groups, including Al-Qaeda.

"Al-Qaeda is not the result of our activities. This is the result of activities of our US friends. This all started in the times of the Soviet war in Afghanistan, when the US security services supported different movements of Islamic fundamentalism in their struggle against the Soviet troops in Afghanistan," Putin told Stone, adding that the "US side has nurtured both Al-Qaeda and [Osama] bin Laden."

Washington should have foreseen that backing Islamists will backfire, with extremists eventually getting out of control.

"It always happens like this. Our US partners should have been aware of it. It is their fault," Putin said.

Un-"strong and stable" Theresa May meets with lunatic fringe DUP to thrash out coalition terms preserving Tory power

Prime Minister Theresa May has met representatives of the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) on Tuesday in a bid to prop up her minority government, after the Conservatives were left eight seats short of a majority in last week's general election.

In a meeting with the Northern Irish party's leader, Arlene Foster, May was expected to thrash out the terms of a deal that will allow her to get legislation through Parliament.

Although May has said the DUP would have no power to veto key policies, Foster said she would strike a deal with the Conservatives as it is in the "national interest."

Following talks at 10 Downing Street, Foster tweeted "discussions are going well."

The DUP gained 10 seats in the election last week. With their support, May can make up for her own party's shortfall by striking a so-called "confidence and supply" deal.

Comment: May is so desperate to hang on to power she is willing to make a deal with the devil.

Watch Stone brilliantly avoid the traps set out during the interview to try and get Stone to admit that the Russian president is some sort of evil genius who meddled in the US elections.
