The legislation, passed by Russia's State Duma, enables ICC-indicted war criminal Vladimir Putin to deploy military forces abroad to "protect" Russian citizens facing arrest, detention, trial, or other perceived persecution by foreign nations and international courts.

The news comes amid mounting warnings by Western officials that Russia may launch an attack against NATO in the coming years, a scenario seen as increasingly realistic since the all-out invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Russian lawmakers have framed the legislation as part of an effort to "counter the campaign of rampant Russophobia that continues abroad."

In Feb 2022, Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine under the euphemism of a "Special Military Operation," an artifice he no longer has to concern himself with, thanks to the Duma. The Israelis euphemistically called their brutal invasion and occupation of Gaza and Lebanon a "limited ground operation."

Former ICC chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda says she 'felt left alone' and 'unsupported' as the Dutch government failed to protect her during the Israeli intimidation campaign against her.

An IDF airstrike on a residential building in Gaza City killed ten Palestinians, bringing the death toll to 72,841; 20,179 children; 12,500 women; 172,855 have been maimed or injured.

To the north, the IDF launched a fresh ground offensive in Lebanon. Airstrikes killed 31 and wounded 40 others; three women and four children died.

The peace-loving hardworking American taxpayer is sick and tired of funding Israel's ethnic cleansing of Muslims in the Middle East. All this does is make enemies for America while bankrupting our economy.

US midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026.

"I'm talking about Islamism and some of the head coverings that are political statements more than they are honoring religious traditions."

Hatemonger Kevin Roberts does not mention Jewish head coverings.

VPOTUS JD Vance is the most disliked VPOTUS in US history.

The results weren't even close.

Sen. John Cornyn (R) must be pissed.

I wonder who "Dubya" stumped for.

Moreover, the CDC has quietly removed information from their webpage offering explicit safer-sex and harm reduction guidance for mpox (monkeypox) despite a court ruling.

I wish him luck.

This news from the Vatican could make it happen for him.

Too bad your friend moved to Red State Florida.

Blech!

May all three of them (Benjamin Netanyahu, Vladimir Putin, and Dummkopf Trumpf) stroke out in one Zeusian strike.

Hi Morris

Wow-- thanks for this info. That's remarkable.

Here is the Jungian concept of "synchronicity" or "meaningful coincidence" I discussed in the four aliens OP.

Glad this OP was read and enjoyed by someone.

How are you, DBT2?

Thanks for thinking of me.

From what I read last century, Soviet intelligence first attempted "Remote Viewing" because of their past Russian imperial experience dealing with mystics and shamans from the Far East. Rasputin had learned from a Mongol shaman which herbs, spices, or poisons worked effectively on the human body-- like stopping bleeding and hence his success with the Romanov family saving the Dauphin during his hemophilial episodes.

When CIA learned in the 1950s what the Soviets were doing, they dabbled with it as well. This led to the notorious MK Ultra experiments to expand human consciousness and led to the Unabomber (Harvard Class of '62).

The "remote viewing" concept was based on the concept of "the Third Eye," where the pineal gland is located behind the forehead. People with the "Third Eye" had an extra-sense, like knowing when someone is behind you and staring at you. Supposedly the "Third Eye" let a person see what what was going on in different places or what someone was thinking.

But the Soviets gave up on "remote viewing" before the USIC did.

One of the reasons why the West was behind the learning curve was the post-WWI craze of seances and talking to departed ones caused by the Great War and Spanish Flu. Harry Houdini debunked this type of "remote viewing" and so this ESP concept fell out of favor. The Soviets did not conduct mystical seances in the 1920s to talk to departed ones.

In a famous episode last century, Johnny Carson debunked Uri Geller on national TV from which the mountebank never recovered. You can Google it. The handsome Ricardo Montalban was also a guest on the show that night.

The "Third Eye" concept may fit into a Jungian sense of "synchronicity," or "meaningful coincidence" if indeed there is a world consciousness. The National Dream Center used to solicit people to submit their dreams every day. The NDC analysts would look for the one common dream that everybody had. In The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury, in one story everyone shared the same dream-- so therefore what they saw would come true-- which led to tragedy.

Examples of pro-active "remote viewing" did not work; but coincidentally seeing or learning something was attributed to that "Third Eye" and many people have such experiences.

"Oh, how did you know? That's my favorite flower!"

I did that with a song a few years ago.

Inexplicably on a whim one day I texted "Wedding Bell Blues" to a friend of mine.

Ten minutes later he texted back astonished: "How the heck did you know that's my favorite song?"

The three most potent impediments to progress and justice in America: The filthy oligarchs, Republican Senators (and their goddam six-year terms), and the non-elected SCOTUS politburo who are appointed for life.

For life.

Another "swing-and-a-miss" OP for poor Coriolanus who provides interesting stories for drudge.com readers on a daily basis.

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission in post-apartheid Suid-Afrika worked out well.

This excellent program succeeded in part because the number of billionaire oligarchs in Suid-Afrika was far less than the number controlling the US and Israel who would obviously oppose it tooth-and-nail in the future.

Nevertheless, we should all support the idea on principle.

The three regimes that need it: The US, Israel, and Russia.

Hungary is cleaning house without a TRC it seems.

@17 Legless USMC NCO re-enlists because "Staff Sgt. Johnny 'Joey' Jones is motivated by changes that have been made in the department over the past 16 months and wants to be a part of it," bleated US Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hogsbreath.

Excellent article, thanks for posting.

There was a SiriusXM talk show host name Joe Madison that discussed something similar years ago.

Sadly, the "Black Eagle" passed away in 2024.

Black athletes in the US have been ruthlessly exploited for centuries.

If you never read Mandingo by Kyle Onstott, watch the 1970s film.

In addition to baseball, one of the first socio-economic collisions between black and white athletes was the world of boxing.

Men of Color had their own boxing association and champions, like the Negro Leagues.

They made far less money than their white counterparts and were less heralded.

The Amsterdam News in Harlem would write about them.

Draft-dodging Jack Dempsey avoided fighting those talented, skilled pugilists of color, afraid of losing to them.
