Dagestan attackers identified - investigators (VIDEO)

Dagestan attack
Five militants have been "eliminated" following a series of terrorist attacks in southern Russia

Russia's Investigative Committee has announced that it has established the identities of five militants who were "eliminated" after a series of deadly terrorist attacks in the Republic of Dagestan over the weekend.

The statement comes after several groups of gunmen launched assaults in the Russian republic's regional capital of Makhachkala and the city of Derbent on Sunday. The groups attacked an Orthodox church, set fire to a Jewish synagogue, and initiated a shootout at a traffic police outpost. According to local health authorities, at least 20 people were killed in the attacks, including over a dozen officers and several civilians, including an Orthodox priest who had his throat slit during the attack on his church. Another 46 people were also injured.

Dagestan covers an area of 50,300 square kilometres (19,400 square miles), with a population of over 3.1 million,[12] consisting of over 30 ethnic groups and 81 nationalities.[13] With 14 official languages, and 12 ethnic groups each constituting more than 1% of its total population, the republic is one of Russia's most linguistically and ethnically diverse, and one of the most heterogeneous administrative divisions in the world.[14] Most of the residents speak one of the Northeast Caucasian, or Turkic, languages;[13] however, Russian is the primary language and the lingua franca in the republic.[15]

Denmark to tax farmers for cow and pig 'flatulence', up to $96 per animal

The Scandinavian country pitched a 'flatulence tax' scheme, which was met with industry-wide support and is expected to be carried by the national parliament.

Denmark will tax livestock farmers for greenhouse gases emitted by their cows, sheep and pigs from 2030, according to a radical new proposal by the Danish government.

Taxation Minister Jeppe Bruus said the scheme aims to slash Northern European country's greenhouse gas emissions by 70% by 2030.

"We will take a big step closer in becoming climate neutral in 2045," Bruus said, adding Denmark "will be the first country in the world to introduce a real CO2 tax on agriculture". He hopes other countries will follow suit.


Comment: The green agenda aside, what does it matter if Denmark is 'climate neutral' if the global majority aren't?


Comment: Whilst climate ideologues in science, government, and industry, may truly believe that this is necessary to prevent (the easily debunked theory of) global boiling, when seen alongside the myriad of other ways the establishment is attacking farming across the West, and amidst the disruption and destruction of supply chains, it seems pretty clear that this is just yet another way of making farming unsustainable for all but the very wealthy:

Inquisition Redux at the Vatican

Pope and Carlo
© @tempoweb
The initiation by the Vatican of canonical proceedings against gadfly Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano marks a significant new development in the deepening crisis within the Roman Catholic church.

Archbishop Vigano was recently summoned to answer accusations of committing three canonical offences: fomenting schism, questioning the legitimacy of the current Pope, and rejecting the second Vatican council of the Roman Catholic church which was held sixty years ago and whose controversial reforms have been agitating traditionalist Catholics ever since.

It is a delicious irony which will not be lost upon the students of Vatican affairs that the church organ now prosecuting Vigano, the innocuous sounding Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, historically is the direct successor to the Holy Office, the very agency that used to direct the Inquisition.

The Archbishop has declined to present himself before his accusers at the initial hearing held on 20 June. He has also refused to dignify the proceedings with, as he put it, "a predetermined outcome," by sending an advocate to plead his cause.

Since retiring as apostolic nuncio in the United States in 2016, Vigano has become a powerful voice denouncing moral lapses in the ranks of the Roman Catholic clergy. With increasing stridency, he has been taking the Vatican to task for failure to adequately address its in-house scandals. Over time, the scope of Vigano's public denunciations has continued to expand. Besides calling attention to the sordid moral atmosphere pervading the Roman Catholic church, Vigano has also been a persistent personal critic of current Pope Jorge Mario Bergoglio, specifically his failure to discipline the wrongdoers. Vigano's contrarian stance concerning the Covid emergency enlisted him even more enemies. Whilst Bergoglio publicly urged strict adherence to the Covid regime as practically a religious duty, Vigano used his bully pulpit to massively disseminate evidence to the contrary, echoing assertions by Prof. M. Chossudovsky that the "official 'corona narrative' is predicated on a 'Big Lie' endorsed by corrupt politicians".

Israel's top court rules ultra-Orthodox Jews must be drafted

Seminary students have been exempt from compulsory military service for decades.

Israel's Supreme Court has unanimously ruled that the military must draft ultra-Orthodox Jewish seminary students into military service, as the war in Gaza stretches into its ninth month and Israel faces a shortage of manpower.

On Tuesday, the court also ordered the government to stop funding religious schools, or yeshivas, whose students avoid the draft.

The court said:
"At this time, there is no legal framework that makes it possible to distinguish between yeshiva students and those destined for military service. Accordingly, the state does not have the authority to order a blanket avoidance of their conscription."
In Israel, military service is compulsory for most Jewish men and women, whereas ultra-Orthodox or 'Haredi' Jewish seminary students have been largely exempt from conscription since the foundation of the state in 1948.

Electing the next dictator: Ugly truths you won't hear from Trump or Biden

"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear." — George Orwell

No matter what carefully crafted sound bites and political spin get trotted out by Joe Biden and Donald Trump in advance of the 2024 presidential election, you can rest assured that none of the problems that continue to undermine our freedoms will be addressed in any credible, helpful way by either candidate, despite the dire state of our nation.

Certainly not if doing so might jeopardize their standing with the unions, corporations or the moneyed elite bankrolling their campaigns.

Indeed, the 2024 elections will not do much to alter our present course towards a police state.

Nor will the popularity contest for the new occupant of the White House significantly alter the day-to-day life of the average American greatly at all. Those life-changing decisions are made elsewhere, by nameless, unelected government officials who have turned bureaucracy into a full-time and profitable business.

In the interest of liberty and truth, here are a few uncomfortable truths about life in the American police state that we will not be hearing from either of the two leading presidential candidates.

Japanese leader apologizes to the unvaccinated: 'You were right, vaccines are killing millions of our loved ones'

Kazuhiro Haraguchi
Kazuhiro Haraguchi, the former Japanese Minister for Internal Affairs, has become the first major politician to apologize to the unvaccinated for the tsunami of deaths occuring among the vaccinated population.

Earlier this week, huge numbers of Japanese citizens took to the streets to protest against the crimes against humanity perpetrated by globalist organizations such by World Health Organization (WHO) and World Economic Forum (WEF) during the pandemic.

During an opening speech at the protests, Haraguchi delivered a powerful and emotional apology for the huge numbers of deaths now occurring as a result of the deadly mRNA roll-out.

Governor Newsom is playing politics with crime in California

California's fierce political battle over crime and retail theft faces a key test this week as divided Democrats in the legislature address efforts by Gov. Gavin Newsom and his allies to undermine a public-safety ballot initiative.

The ballot initiative would overhaul Proposition 47, a law voters approved in 2014 that lowered certain theft and drug crimes from felonies to misdemeanors partly as a way of reducing prison overcrowding.

Newsom was among the first elected officials to support Proposition 47, a ballot initiative written by reform-minded George Gascon, who was then the district attorney in San Francisco. (In an unusual move, Gascon is now the DA in Los Angeles.)

But the pendulum has now swung in the other direction, with critics blaming Prop 47 for the steep rise in retail theft and smash-and-grab "mob" robberies of both high-end department stores and convenience stores that have plagued retailers across the state.

Comment: We feel that Gov. Gavin Newsom is uniquely qualified to accelerate the wholesale implosion of the
US should he somehow be tasked to run for and "win" the Presidential Election.

A massive fire erupted at a former research facility outside Moscow on Monday, leaving eight dead. Emergency services mounted a rescue operation while disturbing video emerged of people desperately asking for help as flames approached.

Officials have confirmed that eight people have died in the fire. According to sources within the emergency services, two people jumped to their deaths when the fire reached them, while others who were trapped in the building are believed to have been crushed after the ceiling collapsed.

The local branch of the Emergencies Ministry (EMERCOM) said on Monday afternoon that a blaze had broken out in the 'Platan' scientific center in the town of Fryazino, some 50km northeast of the Russian capital. Footage circulating on social media shows an eight-story building engulfed in smoke, with a fire raging about mid-way up. Other clips show people inside smashing windows to breathe.

Ex-Ecuadorian president Correa: Assange was 'buried alive' for telling the truth

WikiLeaks co-founder Julian Assange should never have been jailed in the first place, former Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa has told RT in an exclusive interview.

Correa, who granted Assange asylum in his country's embassy in London in 2012, spoke to RT shortly after the news broke that the Australian had been released from prison in the UK as part of a plea deal with the US Justice Department.

"Julian Assange is persecuted for telling the truth, not for lying. And he is the truth teller, the persecuted, the punished, the one buried alive in a prison, when the ones in prison should have been the war criminals," Correa said.

Comment: Rafael Correa was a true friend to Assange, protecting him for as long as he was able.

The secret George Floyd Effect: DEI rot in universities is deeper and darker than you imagine

DEI is dead! Long live DEI!

That, at least, is the situation now prevailing on America's university campuses. Glance at recent news stories, and the story you'll see is that, after decades of growth and four years of absolutely running wild, the diversity and inclusion industry is now in full retreat.

In a promising shift, both MIT and Harvard University have (for now) publicly abandoned the requirement that job applicants submit loathsome "diversity statements" as part of a job application. According to no less of an authority than the New York Times, this could be "The End for Mandatory D.E.I. Statements."
