And this aging serial killer of Europe admitted "the enemy's counter-attacks...."

This is something the serial killer of the Middle East -- Benjamin Netanyahu -- won't admit or (misspeak for now): "Iranian, Palestinian, or Lebanese counter-attacks...."

Vladimir Putin, the decrepit Son of Sam of Europe, and Dummkopf Trumpf's KGB handler.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) shows up at crises -- like the recent plane crash at LGA, the nurses strike, the relief center for Venezuela-- or this-- and let's his competent folks take charge while letting us all know he cares. Zohran is a mensch and a vir populorum.

Meanwhile Canadian-Cuban US Senator Ted Cruz (R-Israel) flees inclement weather and demands bodyguards at airports to keep justifiably angry constituents away from him and his gorgon wife.

And disgraced ex-NYC Mayor Rudy Ghouliani (R) was caught spending more time at Yankees games than at Ground Zero after the horrible 9/11 attacks.

"...more American Jews approve of Zohran Mamdani (D) than of Benjamin Netanyahu (D and R-USA)."

"To be a Jew is to always side with the oppressed, never the oppressor."

I forgot to mention South Korean KCIA (now NIS) and the Turkish MIT also have a strong relationship built after the Korean War. The Turks receive info from Ukraine, their NATO partners, and the ROK -- and vice versa.

From my experience, the top intelligence agencies in the Middle East are the MIT and Jordan's British-trained mukhabarat.

I discounted the heavily politicized Israeli intelligence reports and did just fine without them for 27 years.

Overall, in the Middle East US SIGINT was the best source for intelligence backed up by IMINT from the NRO.

Behind all of the smoke and mirrors for all these years, the BLUF is Israel does not want Turkiye to have the F35 Stealth fighter.

On Monday ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu begged Dummkopf Trumpf on "Fox & Fiends" not to give this technology to a Muslim country opposed to the Gaza genocide (+75,000 Muslims massacred by the IDF). Netanyahu did not mention the Russian SAM controversy.

Moreover, Turkish strongman Tayyip Erdogan said he had done some [unpublicized] favors for the Trumpf junta during the past several years in the Middle East and expects payback.

Those favors were probably allowing Russian supplies into Iran during the illegal war and other things, probably intelligence-related. The MIT is quite competent and has access to sources A to Z, from Palestinian resistance fighters to Syrian guerillas, Kurdish groups, Turkic peoples in the Middle East and Central Asia, and North African tribes.

French President Macron thanked Erdogan for providing valuable intelligence before the Paris 2024 Olympiad and the Surete made some arrests ahead of the games.

Moreover, US companies want this lucrative F35 contract with Turkiye to go through.

For decades, the US and Turkiye have had a special organization called the Office of Defense Cooperation (ODC) for contracts and NATO industrial standards compliance.

Turkish taxi drivers to this day still refer to ODC by its 1960s name: "JUSMAG."

In all of the Army National Guard deployments to "restore order" or quash the civil rights movement in the 1960s, I couldn't find any reports of fatalities from either the angry citizens or the Soldiers.

And not one Ohio Army National Guardsman who opened fire on the unarmed Kent State students on 4 May 1970 was ever brought to justice for the massacre (four students killed, nine wounded).

One plank for a winning POTUS 2028 platform: "I will never deploy the Army National Guard onto America's streets. Ever."

"I'll take Nasty Decrepit Aging Tyrants for $100, Ken."

"This good-for-nothing deteriorating despot in the wheelchair was a sock puppet of a violent cabal of military and security service leaders and business insiders for many years."

*Ding!*

"Who is Republican Governor Greg Abbott of Texas?"

"No, I'm sorry, Nancy. Both crippled miscreants do look alike and are terrible human beings, but this is...."

When white farmers in the Red States receive government handouts, it's patriotism.

When poor People of Color in the Blue States receive government handouts, it's socialism.

Got it.

Glad we cleared that up.
