Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News

The Israeli Death Forces (IDF) bombed an airbase in Syria ahead of a Turkish military deployment there, drawing condemnation from Ankara and criticism from a US envoy who called it an "unnecessary escalation." ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu, a demonic rakshasa responsible for the deaths of nearly 75,000 human beings in the Gaza Strip and displacing one million people in Lebanon, had previosuly warned NATO member Turkiye not to deploy forces to her ally Syria.

IDF occupying parts of southern Syria, violating her airspace, and emptying villages east of the Golan Heights. Benjamin Netanyahu is simply not a good human being.

Turkiye's military is ranked ninth in the world by the Global Firepower Index (GFI); Israel is ranked 15th.

Ankara just signed a mutual defense pact with several countries and can count on South Korea for military assistance. The ROK is ranked fifth in the world, behind the US, Russia, China, and India.

Dummkopf Trumpf just returned from Ankara where he was treated royally; he likes Turkish strongman Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Trumpf has been caught cursing and blasting Benjamin Netanyahu several times.

The rogue Zionist regime needs to be brought down immediately

As previously noted, US citizen Rama Duwaji, the attractive First Lady of the popular and effective mayor of NYC Zohran Mamdani (D), is more in danger from the Israeli Death Forces (IDF) than from any other group operating in the Middle East.

Since 7 Oct 2023, IDF airstrikes in Syria have killed over one hundred people.

The American taxpayer-funded IDF killed 4,047 people in Lebanon; 316 children, 790 women, 16,638 injured or maimed; one million vulnerable people have been displaced. IDF troops have looted homes of Lebanese people and desecrated Christian sites and monasteries.

The Lancet UK asserts the murderous IDF liquidated over 75,000 Muslims in the Gaza Strip, including over 20,000 children and over 12,000 women.

Lebanese Army G-2 personnel and then soldiers of the Syrian Army will most likely safeguard Rama Duwaji from the IDF during her visit which will take place during UNGA in NYC.

After this reckless IDF attack against Syria, I wouldn't be surprised if Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan doesn't send a contingent of Turkish SOF to accompany the First Lady in Syria since the NYPD union opposed protecting her.

There will be ramifications for the NYPD in the following months.

Because of international law?

Ramification in NYC for NYPD detectives.

NYC Mayor Zorhan Mamdani (D) will no doubt evaluate the NYPD Intelligence Bureau (IB) and their prize jewel, sending detectives overseas to cush unsupervised positions as liaison officers, like in Australia, France, or Spain.

$ $ $ $

The information these NYPD liaison officers receive would be similar to -- or the same -- that FBI LEGATTs, DSS agents, and CIA personnel receive from police departments about suspected terrorists or organized crime entities in their countries.

Basically this is a "prestige" program for the NYPD and a waste of money.

But the Detective Endowment's Agency (DEA) would not like this program scrapped for obvious reasons.

$ $ $ $

Having run afoul of His Honor over not wanting to protect his wife, he will shake things up.

Mayor Mamdani has already re-vamped the DOI and the NYC Sheriff's Dept. I imagine his next calcified targets will be the NYC Marshal program, Israeli hi-tech security contracts, and this NYPD boondoggle below.

Years ago, the NYPD IB would have been better off establshing liaison offices with the national police departments of Jordan and Turkiye, and not Israel.
