SOTT Focus: NewsReal: New Jersey Drones: Alien Invasion, Mass Hysteria, or US Govt Tech Test?

As much as we may 'want to believe', it's probably just the US govt lying again!

This week on NewsReal, we discuss the spate of 'UFO-drone' videos and reports coming out of the US Northeast, primarily over the state of New Jersey. Is this a classic 'UFO flap'? Or are the flashing lights and 'plane-like' design of these 'UFOs' pointing to man-made origins? The US govt is being very coy about the phenomenon, so for now Joe & Niall are going with 'US military test'...

In the second hour they discuss the catastrophe for the 'Axis of Resistance' in Syria, the obliteration of democracy in Romania, the 'color revolution' in Georgia and a host of other recent efforts by the Empire to 'lock everything down', apparently because Trump is coming and it's imperative that he enter his second presidency with 'certain facts on the ground'.

SOTT Focus: SOTT Earth Changes Summary - November 2024: Extreme Weather, Planetary Upheaval, Meteor Fireballs

secs1124
An Arctic blast brought several intense winter storms and heavy snowfall to northern Europe, causing widespread disruption and travel delays. Countries such as Sweden, Finland, and parts of the Alps saw significant snow accumulations, with some areas receiving up to 27 inches (70 cm) of snow.

Meanwhile, Ukraine experienced record-breaking snowfall, with some areas seeing up to 31 inches (79 cm) of snow. This extreme weather event was driven by a powerful cold front that swept across the region, causing road closures, power outages, and challenges for transportation and emergency services.

The heavy snowfall also had a significant impact on agriculture and infrastructure, affecting rural areas already struggling with the consequences of the military conflict.

SOTT Focus: Israel's Love Affair With Syrian Jihadis

Zionist apologists commonly present support for Israel as a necessary extension of opposition to radical Islam and the threat of Jihadi terrorism. "Support us fighting them here, so you don't have to fight them there" is a common plea to the West from Zionist spokespeople within Israel. Yet when it comes to the Syrian Civil War, the conflict which sparked the major refugee crisis responsible for flooding Europe with millions of Muslims, Israel has been firmly on the side of Jihad, even and most particularly Al-Qaeda.

8 years after the Russian military freed most of Syria from the terror grip of Western proxy army 'ISIS', the remainders of that horde, holed up in Idlib province in northwestern Syria, last week broke out of containment - clearly with Turkish and Western approval - and re-took Syria's second-largest city, Aleppo.

First hour of this NewsReal: Joe & Niall recap the Astana peace process that 'froze' the so-called 'Syrian Civil War', resulting in this enclave of 'moderate' terrorists, why they've been unleashed now, and why 'solving Syria' is a complex problem that is easily exploited by unscrupulous hegemons.

Second hour: Russia's demonstration of its new 'Oresnik' weapon in Ukraine has game-changing implications, and not just for ending the Ukraine war. Finally, joined by Toño, co-host of the SOTT en español podcast, a sit-rep on the US-Mexico border, Mexico's new female president, and what Mexicans think of Trump's re-election.

SOTT Focus: NewsReal: Russia Sends NATO Missile Message, Will NATO Back Down?

Russia's hypersonic response to the US government giving 'Ukraine' the green-light to launch long-range missiles into Russia is a stark warning. Will the West take heed? While runaway 'hot war' resulting in 'mutually assured destruction' remains an unlikely outcome, the West's dear leaders are so supremely confident that Russia is bluffing, it looks like Russia is going to have to hit at least a few American and/or European military targets to really drive the message home: the Age of Hegemony is over.

Also on this NewsReal, utter chaos in the UK as bomb threats, protests, terror alerts and public outrage at the Starmer government highlight the volatility of Western 'democracies', Trump's new 'MAGA' administration takes shape, and wild weather continues surprising forecasters whose models can no longer predict rainfall volumes.

Joe & Niall are joined this week by Harrison Koehli of the 'MindMatters' podcast.

SOTT Focus: Russia's New 'Experimental' Missile(s) Send a Message to NATO

Russian missiles
The videos of the Russian missile(s) arriving this morning in were obviously difficult to interpret due to the video quality, but we noticed very high speed and what some people were calling 'plasma' effects, due to the fact that each missile seemed to 'glow' along it's entire length as it passed through the air before impact. Common or garden missiles do not 'glow' in this way, compare the Iranian missile attack last month on Israel for comparison.

SOTT Focus: Explained: How UK Farmers' Inheritance Tax is Part of The War on Food

no farmers no food
The British government's inheritance tax reforms aren't about class warfare or filling the "black hole" in the country's budget, they are about taking vital land off small and medium-sized family farms and handing it to mega-corporations.

It's yet another piece of the Great Reset agenda, specifically the war on food.

A quick course for non-Brits who don't know how our country works (and, indeed, the substantial number of Brits who have recently demonstrated they don't know how their own country works):

Since 1984 working farms have been 100% exempt from paying inheritance tax under the "agricultural property relief" (APR) system.

The justification for this was that working farms are needed to produce the food we all eat, and since British farming families are generally asset-rich but cash-poor, charging inheritance tax on farmland might negatively impact farm output.

SOTT Focus: High-Precision, Long-Range NATO Missiles Against Russia: Why Now?

Ukraine map buffer zone
Russia announced a change to its nuclear doctrine several months ago, where it can now respond with nuclear weapons to a non-nuclear attack on Russia by an enemy, either directly from enemy territory or from the territory of a third party. A notable caveat however is that such a response would only occur in the event that the attack "threatened the very existence of the Russian state."

SOTT Focus: NewsReal: Trump, Take 2: Revolutionary Regime Change, or More 'American Empire First'?

Trump's initial nominations for cabinet positions are a mixed bag, to say the least. Congress has yet to vet them, but the RINOs (Republicans in name only) can't block all of Trump's 'Avengers', surely? Joe & Niall run through the list in the first hour of this NewsReal, then assess the one major issue Team Trump could realistically 'solve' in the coming year: the Russia-Ukraine War.
