TODAY. Two ruthless killer regimes, who hate each other, are now to cosy up for the benefit of the “peaceful” nuclear industry. What could possibly go wrong?

ISRAEL has been systematically committing serious human rights violations against Palestinians for decades. Violations such as forcible transfer, administrative detention, torture, unlawful killings and serious injuries, and the denial of basic rights and freedoms have been well documented by Amnesty and others.

SAUDI ARABIA – Torture is used as a punishment – Executions are on the increase – No free speech – No protests – Women are widely discriminated against – Torture in police custody is common – You can be detained and arrested with no good reason – Religious discrimination is rife – Migrant workers have been deported en masse – Human rights organisations banned.

The glorious global nuclear industry now brings these despicable national leaders together. For the “peace-loving” USA etc, all is now forgiven and forgotten .

Israel – ever ready for nuclear war – and Saudi Arabia soon to be. What could possibly go wrong?

Jun 17, 202 NBC News , Hanan Khashoggi says she lives in fear, afraid she could “be assassinated at any time,” following the brutal killing of her husband, Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi, which a U.S. intelligence report found was approved by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman. CNBC’s Eamon Javers brings us the NBC News exclusive interview.

Two extremest-criminal countries. Both in the climate atrophying, middle east.

F-16s can drop tactical nuclear warheads.
Modern tactical nuclear warheads do not leave radiation signatures.
Russia is very concerned an F-16 is going to drop a tactical nuclear warhead on Zaporozhye NPP and blame Russia.

- Modern tactical nuclear warheads DO leave radiation, although the amount is less compared to strategic nuclear weapons. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/limited-tactical-nuclear-weapons-would-be-catastrophic/

So NATO will send nuclear-capable F-16s from German bases to attack Russia. Moscow is now considering attacking those bases, if nuclear-capable F16s fly from them. Then we have WWIII. Someone in the west needs to wake up.

Victoria Nuland is a face of the deep state, a lobbyist literally embedded in the state apparatus, like a tick on a dog’s back. She is maneuvering the USA into world war. Sh3 is getting paid very well for it.

Typically affiliated with defense or foreign policy think tanks, their job is to manipulate the state apparatus into doing the bidding of the special interests. In return, the special interests fund the think tanks lavishly.

Why do political parties and politicians farm out policy to think tanks? Because the think tank sponsors also lavishly reward “friendly” politicians, via campaign donations and other means of influence.

Think tank = lobby tank.

On Wednesday China lashed back at US President Joe Biden for his earlier referring to Chinese leader Xi Jinping as a dictator and blaming xi for what is going on for the american provocations of china, in america in the south china sea, in taiwan, in the usa with baloon propaganda and antichines3 racism. The timing of Biden’s Tuesday night remarks, issued at a fundraiser, were especially awkward given he had just dispatched Secretary of State Blinken for a two day visit to China where he met with Xi.

“That’s a great embarrassment for dictators. When they didn’t know what happened,” Biden said while speaking on recent tensions at the California event, and while referring to the Chinese spy balloon shootdown in early February.

The irony, obvious and yet perhaps lost on Biden, is that Blinken’s trip was a desperate attempt of administration to rescue spiraling US-China relations, and with Biden’s one single “dictator” comment these efforts have likely come to nothing.

- To Mrcds. Oh well, Antony Blinken wouldn’t have achieved anything, anyway – useless globe-trotting war-mongering twit that he is.
