​  US and its allies unprepared to repel saturation missile attacks​ - Results from a new study of missile defenses show limited supply, slow manufacturing
THAAD is a hit-to-kill, or kinetic kill, interceptor that does not use explosives. It has an operational ceiling of around 92 miles, so it is not capable of exoatmospheric intercepts (310 to 620 miles). Israel’s high altitude interceptor, Arrow 3, is said to be capable of intercepts in the exoatmosphere.
​  According to the JINSA report, in the June conflict THAAD intercepted 47.7 percent of all the missiles fired at Israel, an unexpectedly high proportion. In doing so, the US expended at least 14% of its total THAAD interceptor stockpile. JINSA says it will take Lockheed, which manufactures the THAAD interceptors, around eight years to replenish the US stockpile, assuming the rate of production is not significantly increased.
​  Take Note: We only know the number of Iranian missiles shot down by THAAD (92). We do not know how many THAAD interceptors were launched to shoot down the Iranian missiles. The 14% figure represents the claimed kills, not the actual number fired. Thus the remaining inventory of THAAD interceptors may be smaller than stated in the report.
​  There are a couple of important caveats. The first is that the US is supplying other countries with THAAD systems. Saudi Arabia has a THAAD system delivered from the United States and 50 interceptors. However, it has ordered 360 interceptors, which will take years to manufacture.​

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), a UK-based rights group that tracks violence in Syria, has released a statement criticizing US Ambassador Tom Barrack for claiming Syrian government forces were not involved in the mass executions of civilians in Suwayda, southern Syria...
..Barrack, who serves as the ambassador to Turkey and as a special envoy to Syria, claimed Syrian government troops didn’t enter Suwayda during the violence. “The Syrian troops haven’t gone into the city. These atrocities that are happening are not happening by the Syrian regime troops. They’re not even in the city because they agreed with Israel that they would not go in,” he told Reuters.​

​  According to ​... information, 29-year-old Sergeant Vitalij Huga, from Unghvar, left his post without permission near the Transcarpathian border marker 336.

​  The study treats elected oversight and European lawmakers whose job, ideally, involves more than clapping like trained seals every time an unelected Eurocrat lights public money on fire, like elements of some kind of Russian infiltration plot.
​  “Massive support for this effort was also found by pro-Kremlin media outlets, bloggers, and online influencers, as the Lithuania-based organization Debunk.org specializes in analyzing disinformation and Russian propaganda, which is seen as part of Russia’s hybrid warfare against the EU,” Spiegel wrote, describing Russian-linked media “fueling” a recent von der Leyen non-confidence vote in the EU Parliament. “Among the larger portals were those of the Russian propaganda channel RT…”​

​  John Helmer, ZUGZWANG IN ZANGEZUR – IN THIS CAUCASIAN GAME ARMENIA HAS DEFEATED ITSELF, TRUMP CLAIMS ANOTHER PEACE PRIZE
​ Zugzwang is the German word which has become  the name in all languages for the well-known position in politics, warfare, and games of chess which is the last one before capitulation.  Literally, it means “being forced to move”. Metaphorically, it refers to the situation when one adversary has placed his opponent in a position where he must make the next move, and whatever move he makes will be his defeat.​..
​..Zangezur, an Armenian word Զանգեզուր with geographical and historical meaning for a mountainous region of southeastern Armenia (lead image, right),  has been Armenian, Mongol, Turkic, Ottoman, Persian, and Russian over a very long past of sheep herding   and fighting.  Today it refers to a lowland transportation route for road and railway moving cargoes from east to west, north and south, and vice versa — the Zangezur Corridor.  Operation of this route and control of it by force of arms​  pit the strategic interests of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Iran, Russia, China, United States,  US, France, India,  and others, against each other in several shifting combinations.
​  If the powers strategize these combinations to benefit their interests at the expense of the others, the only one in the zugzwang is Armenia and its current prime minister, Nikol Pashinyan, who has put himself there.​

​  Heh, heh, heh ... Yves Smith  Will Voters Turn to Corbyn and Socialism over Starmer’s Big Finance Love-In?  
​  Americans who have become disillusioned about the prospects for national candidates like Sanders who advocate for concrete material benefits for ordinary voters, aka socialism, might understandably be inclined to dismiss Corbyn’s efforts to seek leadership via a new party as quixotic. But things have changed since his last bi​d. First, with Gaza genocide becoming even more visibly horrific, it’s much harder to make “pro Palestine = anti-semitic” stick. Second, as rise of Zohran Mamdani, and even more tellingly, the difficulty Team Dem and plutocrats are having in sinking his campaign, even in hard-core, heavily propagandized America, capitalism has resulted in such severe inequality and visible looting that voters are tossing the old guard over the side. The same impulse that produced Trump should if anything even more favor a bona fide socialist.
​  Early UK voter reactions indicate that Corbyn will be a force to be reckoned with, as in even if he does not become PM, he could come to command a big enough block of seats so as to lead a coalition essential to forming a government and hence influence policy. From Council Estate Media in New Corbyn party already bigger than Tories and Reform as 250,000 sign up in one day.​

​  Michael Hudson: Church and Finance – From the Crusades to World War I
​  Before I could spend time in saying, ​"how did a banking class emerge​", I had to explain what the Roman churches strategy was in creating a system of control over other realms, how it organized the Crusades, and how the Crusades worked primarily against the Holy Land at all. They were against other Christian countries. Especially against Germany that wanted to be independent, with the king appointing his own bishops, it was against the Cathars and the Albigensian Crusade. Or the song Dominica, Dominica. The Dominican Inquisition are basically tried to destroy Southeastern France on behalf of the northern Normans. And I had to go way back not only to the spirit of uniquely Roman intolerance of other religions, such as the Northern Germanic religions centuries earlier. How the Church asserted its authority over kings and what led to all of this I had to write 2 chapters on how the reformers in the church came beginning in the 11th century to take Rome and the papacy​, ​which was a backwater controlled by local aristocracies from the Roman suburb of Tusculum. The Catholic history refers to it as the pornocracy, the rule by the harlots of utter corruption.
​  Well. In response to this. The reformers, mainly from Germany, by King Otto and his successors, said if we’re if we’re going to reform the Christian Church and make it Christian instead of just an owned by particular families for their own economic benefit. To provide security, we must basically exclude all the secular control over the papacy, we have to exclude loyalty. We have to insist that the papacy does not become hereditary by these families, just passing it on to their relatives or their supporters that requires celebracy. Which is something that you don’t find in the rest of Christianity. Essentially the reformers were idealists and by an idealist they ended up insisting on total control over all Christianity and there were five patriarchates in the 10th century. The largest was Constantinople, but the others were all in the Middle East. There were the Antioch, Jerusalem, Alexandria and RomeRoman Papacy set out to say we’ve got to dominate these countries, and we’ve got to dominate secular society so that we can impose church rule, Christian rule on all of the kings.
​  To do that, we have to control the appointment of bishops. We have to take the power of local kings in Germany and anywhere else in our own hands, so that we appoint the bishops who are in charge of collecting taxes and what they do with it and sending the money to Rome.
​  And so, the whole organization of Christian reform in Rome took the form not only of an antagonism towards all seculars realms and all the other patriarchs of the church. But it was basically financial in nature.​

Strike Force

 Curious About Terminology,


​  Paging Elon Musk!  DOJ Announces Formation of “Strike Force to Assess ODNI Evidence” Against Former Intel Officials
​  Main Justice has announced the formation of a DOJ strike force to assemble and assess the evidence provided by Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, against former intelligence and government officials.
​  This will require the DOJ to take a new approach, extracting information from multiple silos and then overlaying context to the content therein.
​  That’s essentially the new approach that DNI Gabbard has taken to break down the silo defenses, and this is the first time since I’ve been outlining how they self-protect that someone (DNI) has actually done the extracting and cross-referencing.​

DNI Tulsi Gabbard Holds a Press Conference While Declassifying and Releasing the 2020 HPSCI Report Deconstructing the Trump-Russia Narrative​     The key element of Director Tulsi Gabbard’s release today is to underscore just how fraudulent the JAR/ICA created in 2016 and 2017 was. The JAR/ICA report was fabricated by the CIA and Intelligence Community to give the appearance of Russia interfering in the election. The declassified HPSCI report takes that fraudulent intelligence analysis apart, step by step.
​  The JAR/ICA was also used to justify President Obama expelling Russian diplomats, confiscating Russian property, targeting Russian officials for sanctions, and imposing a series of sanctions against various Russian entities, individuals, groups and organizations.  All of the Obama’s Russian targeting effort was part of an enhanced IC op to give additional patina of credibility to the fraudulent premise.
​  In many ways, Russia was collateral damage created by a domestic USA political intelligence operation run by Obama allies in order to attempt to destabilize the incoming administration of President Donald Trump.  ¹The framing of both Donald Trump and Russia is going to be a key facet to accept as time moves forward on this story.​

​  Andrew Korybko, What’s Thailand’s Endgame If Its Conflict With Cambodia Escalates Into War?
  The latest clashes between Cambodia and Thailand over their decades-long border dispute, which were arguably initiated by the Thai military to restore its damaged prestige amidst a recent political scandal as explained here, could “move towards war” according to its acting Prime Minister. Thailand doesn’t recognize the International Court of Justice’s 1962 ruling in favor of Cambodia and rejects third-party mediation in the current conflict so the fighting will likely continue until it achieves some tangible goal...
​..Hun Sen was previously demonized by the West, which he strongly implied in 2019 wanted to overthrow him at the possible cost of plunging Cambodia back into civil war, and they also claimed that he cut a secret deal with Beijing to host a Chinese naval base. It therefore wouldn’t be too difficult for Thailand to rally Western governments around a potential regime change campaign in Cambodia. In exchange for their political support, Thailand might promise to have its puppet regime distance Cambodia from China.
​  To be clear, this speculation about its endgame doesn’t mean that Thailand initiated the latest conflict at the West’s behest, just that the bloc’s US leader might see an opportunity if Thailand’s goals shift to regime change in the event that the conflict escalates into war.​

​  A Midwestern Doctor,  Ending Medical Gaslighting
​  I saw a recent JAMA study surveying pregnant mothers and parents of young children, which found  [37% of pregnant couples and parents of young children accept all vaccines.]​ ...  While there has been an overall loss of trust in vaccination (which I consider to be absolutely profound), the drop in confidence is much greater among the youngest generation, who are actually making the decisions to vaccinate their children.​..
..Whenever governments are decaying, the audacity of their lies will increase more and more, which we likewise are seeing throughout the media (both with the vaccines and with our entire political process). While this approach can be quite effective (consider how many people still believe the narrative), at the same time, once it passes a certain point, everyone begins to wake up, especially if they have a framework to place those lies into context.
​  Put differently, many of the social changes we are now seeing are because people have become so fed up with the mass media’s over the top gaslighting about what we can see is happening in front of us with our own eyes. Since there are only two options for the media to address this (either more gaslighting or telling the truth), still, they aren’t willing to give up their power (or money) by telling the truth, they’ve boxed themselves into a downward spiral in public trust by continuing to double down on gaslighting.​   https://www.midwesterndoctor.com/p/ending-medical-gaslighting

​  Meryl Nass MD on "money talking" in politics:  Reality intrudes on MAHA optimism
​ Mr. Simpson from Idaho, the interior subcommittee chair, earlier in the meeting and way before we got to the amendment to remove it, claimed that the pesticide liability rider was only about federal preempting of state pesticide restrictions, like California’s. It had nothing to do with a liability shield. The MAHA moms calling his office were uninformed...
..Other members revealed how the rider would block EPA from issuing new guidelines when there were new scientific discoveries of dangers. How it protects companies from lawsuits, and does not protect constituents. How it acts to prevent transparency. How the rider was written by the chemical industry for the industry. How it has been presented in earlier bills but has never previously been adopted. How everyone wants healthy communities, and we all want to know about the dangers people face when they use a product. Such information has never been withheld from consumers before.
​  Not surprisingly, no one mentioned what giving a liability shield to vaccines had led to during COVID...
​..And then there was a voice vote on the Pingree amendment to remove Section 453. Rep. Tom Cole, the chairman, determined by using his ears that the NOs prevailed...
..Surprisingly, there was no request by any of the 28 Democrats on the committee, who allegedly supported the amendment, for such a roll call. Not a peep.
​  Now what does that mean? It means the Democrats knew, in advance of the meeting, what the outcome of the vote would be. They were going to allow the Republicans to win this. Had they demanded that each member commit themself to a recorded position (which could be used against them in the next election) they might have achieved a majority vote to remove the rider. Members who foresaw a tight election next year might have voted with the Democrats. Instead, the Democrats allowed the Republican members to avoid having to commit themselves by name to supporting the pesticide shield, guaranteeing their side would lose the vote on the amendment.​

Accusations Fly

 Beyond Reproach,


​  Moon of Alabama,  Zelenski Ends Independence Of Anti-Corruption Institutions
​  Last Friday I reported about a fight between the Zelenski regime on the one side and some oligarchs and U.S. aligned non-government-organizations on the other side.
​  An intense information operation has been launched to remove Ukraine's (former) President Vladimir Zelenski from office. Behind it are a cabal of Ukrainian opposition figures in coordination which western media and parts of the Trump administration.
​  The current campaign follows a earlier one which was directed against Zelenski's main advisor and head of the office of the president Andrei Yermak.
​  Pieces in western media had attacked the Zelenski regime with accusations that it was seeking control over the independent anti-corruption institutions which had been established after the Maidan coup. Anti-corruption investigation had lately been moving in on some persons near to Zelenski himself...
​..In most countries one will find on vertical judicial construct in the form of the police doing criminal investigations, prosecutors directing the police while building court cases against perpetrators and a hierarchy of courts to judge about those.
​  After the U.S. directed Maidan coup in 2014 the U.S. government, in form of then Vice-President Joe Biden, set out to gain complete control over Ukraine.​  It insisted on creating a second, completely separate legal vertical in Ukraine focused solely ​upon corruption.​..
​..The National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) investigates cases of corruption especially of officials in higher position. The Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor Office (SAPO) assembled cases to go to court. The High Anti-Corruption Court of Ukraine is judging over them.
​  The vertical was designed to be independent of the Ukrainian government and state. A special Civil Oversight Council - not the parliament -  is nominally in control of it. But the effective control was always with the U.S. embassy in Kiev.​..
..Last week's public-relation attack by the opposition against Zelenski, via the Financial Times and other media, was supposed to gain it support from U.S. and European governments. However throughout the weekend no western support in form of public statements etc was received.​                                      The Zelenski regime interpreted this as a green light to take down the last institution in Ukraine which is not under its direct control.​                            On Monday it launched its all out assault​.   https://www.moonofalabama.org/2025/07/ukraine-zelenski-ends-independence-of-anti-corruption-institutions.html#more

  Zelensky eliminated his Biden/EU controllers just before negotiations with Russia:  Simplicius,  Echoes of Maidan Mark Zelensky's Sudden Fall from Grace
  It appears rumors of Trump’s flushing of Zelensky may have had something to them, as tonight the knives have come out for Zelensky and his gang. What started as gripes against push back on some irrelevant NGO-run organs has turned into a fledgling ‘Maidan’ against the now unfavored Ukrainian leader...
..Most eye-opening about the fall from grace is how boldly the chosen actors are playing their lines, pearl-clutching about some imagined ‘repressions’ of a pair of organizations virtually no one has heard of or cared about until a few days ago, in this case NABU (National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine) and SAPO (Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office)...
..In short: Some believe the anti-corruption organizations finally got their marching orders from above to target Zelensky’s coterie by digging up “dirt” on them, presumably to initiate the process to eventually remove Ze from power, or at least begin putting major pressure on him as an implied threat to toe the line.
  Sensing the plan, Zelensky moved to preemptively begin hamstringing the corruption watchdogs. He arrested the ‘head of detectives’ at NABU under the trumped-up suspicion of spying for Russia, not long before submitting the bill to the Rada to effect a ‘hostile takeover’ of these “independent” organizations, putting them under total state control.
​  The formation of these institutions was demanded as part of mandatory “reforms” by the EU for Ukraine’s eligibility for accession into the bloc; this is for a reason. Like NGOs, such organizations are designed by the establishment to serve as levers of power, control, and leverage working “independently” away from elected government—which in actuality means they are unaccountable and unelected. This is in strict accordance with the elites’ classic blueprint for subverting governments and taking power away from the people, no different to the “federal” reserve system that was foisted on the world without any real debate.
​  This is just the latest replay of the Biden scandal, wherein he openly bragged about eliminating chief prosecutor Victor Shokin who had dared to investigate Burisma and Hunter Biden’s shady dealings in Ukraine. The excuse given then was also that Shokin had “failed to properly investigate corruption”, which is the establishment’s favored MO each time they need an inconvenient pest removed. Fancy beau ideals like ‘reform’ and ‘corruption’ are eaten up by the hoi polloi like a steamy batch of protest brownies.
​  Even back in his seminal speech of February 22, 2022, Putin had exposed these very organizations like NABU as being run out of the US embassy in Kiev​:
“The US Embassy in Ukraine directly controls NABU and SAPO.” — Vladimir Putin, Feb 22, 2022
​  The other thing Putin is referring to above confirms what I just wrote about unelected bodies. When you dig into how these organizations are run, and how their key players are appointed, you find that the process is controlled by a commission of European “specialists”. Ukrainians are also on the board, but the Europeans have the overriding vote...
​..This is why Zelensky’s head of the SBU Vasyl Maliuk today denied the organizations were being ‘abolished’, but rather, they were being returned to their constitutional mandates...
..Not that there’s any “good guy” in this, but you can’t deny that Zelensky’s moves are in effect correct, despite being for obviously ulterior reasons.​   https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/echoes-of-maidan-mark-zelenskys-sudden

“It is important that we maintain unity,” 
Zelenskyy added.
As well as causing protests at home, the vote in Ukraine’s parliament on Tuesday also generated unease in the EU, which Kyiv aspires to join...

​  5,580 Nukes on Standby — Russia Declares National Threat​   
Kremlin Doctrine Shifts: Every Western Move Now Risks a Thermonuclear Response
​  Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov delivered the signal loud and clear: Russia’s nuclear doctrine is not just intact — it’s operational. The recent U.S. decision to greenlight arms sales to Ukraine via European NATO states, announced by Donald Trump, has ignited deep fears in Moscow.
​  What Western media won’t tell you is that Russia has redefined its doctrine. According to that doctrine, any aggression against Russia or its allies — even by non-nuclear states — can now be interpreted as a direct act of war if supported by a nuclear power. That means any NATO-backed operation inside Ukraine that targets Russian forces — or even territory Russia claims as its own — could be seen as justification for a nuclear first strike.
​  This isn’t theory. It’s written policy.
Russia’s nuclear playbook was rewritten in 2023 to explicitly allow the use of nuclear weapons not only in response to WMDs or threats to the state’s existence, but also in the case of large-scale conventional attacks — especially those supported by NATO powers.
​  That’s you, America. That’s Europe.
​  And let us be clear: Ukraine, now armed with U.S. long-range strike weapons, is openly discussing hitting Russian soil. The Kremlin no longer sees this as a distant threat. They see it as an ongoing, real-time escalation — one that justifies nuclear retaliation under their revised rules of engagement.​

​  Thanks Oxy in Oz: The Crisis Infrastructure Inventory​:  A survey of pre-positioned 'solutions' waiting for their triggering 'crises'.
From AI governance and cybersecurity to health coordination and financial controls, comprehensive institutional frameworks have been methodically positioned under the guise of 'resilience' and 'preparedness'. What appeared as rapid innovation during COVID — vaccine passports, contact tracing, emergency health powers — was in fact pre-positioned infrastructure, waiting for crisis activation.
​  Nine domains now have complete frameworks awaiting sequential deployment. But military emergency could bypass this careful staging, activating everything simultaneously.​ The control grid is almost ready, and the pattern is global.​..
​  Global governance has entered its final phase of infrastructure consolidation. Across nine major domains — AI, cybersecurity, health, finance, information, resources, climate, space, and atmospheric management — fully-developed institutional frameworks now sit ready for deployment.​..
..The 2020 Convergence revealed this mechanism in operation: crisis creates justification for intermediation, intermediation enables conditional access, and conditional access delivers control. What appeared as rapid COVID-19 innovation, cemented through The Pandemic Treaty was actually pre-positioned infrastructure waiting for activation — The Clearinghouse Protocol deployed at scale.​..
..The clearinghouse protocol operates through a deceptively simple sequence: crisis creates the justification for intermediationintermediation enables conditional access, and conditional access delivers control. But the most sophisticated version doesn't wait for crises to develop solutions — it develops comprehensive institutional frameworks years in advance, then waits for — or manufactures — crisis opportunities to activate them.​..                  ..Whether activated through AI safety, cybersecurity, health emergencies, financial instability, information warfare, resource scarcity, environmental breakdown, climate intervention, or space governance — all paths lead to the same coordinated institutional control through crisis-justified intermediation.​..

​  Francesca Albanese: ‘A Revolutionary Shift Is Underway’
​  The occupied Palestinian territory today is a hellscape. In Gaza, Israel has dismantled even the last UN function—humanitarian aid—in order to deliberately starve, displace time and again, or kill a population they have marked for elimination. In the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, ethnic cleansing advances through unlawful siege, mass displacement, extrajudicial killings, arbitrary detention, widespread torture. Across all areas under Israeli rule, Palestinians live under the terror of annihilation, broadcast in real time to a watching world. The very few Israeli people who stand against genocide, occupation, and apartheid—while the majority openly cheers and calls for more—remind us that Israeli liberation, too, is inseparable from Palestinian freedom.
​ The atrocities of the past 21 months are not a sudden aberration; they are the culmination of decades of policies to displace and replace the Palestinian people.  
​  Against this backdrop, it is inconceivable that political forums, from Brussels to NY, are still debating recognition of the State of Palestine—not because it’s unimportant, but because for 35 years states have stalled, refused recognition, pretending to “invest in the PA” while abandoning the Palestinian people to Israel’s relentless, rapacious territorial ambitions and unspeakable crimes. Meanwhile political discourse has reduced Palestine to a humanitarian crisis to manage in perpetuity rather than a political issue demanding principled and firm resolution: end permanent occupation, apartheid and today genocide.​

Trump Threatens Iran with New Attacks: “We Will Do It Again if Necessary”​   https://www.telesurenglish.net/trump-threatens-iran-with-new-attacks-we-will-do-it-again-if-necessary/

​  Iran condemned the UN Security Council on Tuesday for what it called its persistent failure to respond to “blatant acts of aggression” against the sovereignty of independent states, Anadolu reports.
​  The UN Security Council “has either been unable or unwilling to respond appropriately and resolutely to blatant acts of aggression against the national sovereignty of certain states,” Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi said in a speech to the council.
​  He cited “military occupations, genocide, economic blockades, and the sponsorship of state terrorism” as examples of the council’s failure.
​  On June 13, Israel launched a 12-day offensive on Iran, targeting military, nuclear, and civilian sites, as well as senior military commanders and leading scientists.
​  Tehran retaliated with missile and drone strikes on Israeli military and intelligence facilities. The US also bombed three Iranian nuclear sites, and later announced a ceasefire on June 24.
​  Gharibabadi said the Israeli assault left 1,100 people dead, including 132 women, 45 children, and 26 medical personnel.​

​  Turkey & UKs head-choppers over expansionist Zionists?  US envoy doubles down on support for Syria’s government, criticizes Israel’s intervention​

​  He took a critical tone toward Israel’s recent intervention in Syria, calling it poorly timed and saying that it complicated efforts to stabilize the region.
​  Tom Barrack, who is ambassador to Turkiye and special envoy to Syria and also has a short-term mandate in Lebanon, made the comments in an exclusive interview with The Associated Press.​

​  Turkey Commits Military Support To 'New' Post-Assad Syria With Saudis Pledging $4BN In Investment
​  Turkey's Defense Ministry announced on Wednesday that it will provide military assistance to Syria to help "combat terrorism". But the reality is that Turkey had long opened a 'jihadi highway' throughout years of the Syrian proxy war which helped cement the rise of ISIS and Syria becoming a hotbed of foreign fighters...
​..President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has recently pledged that Turkey's military will "not allow terrorists to drag Syria back into chaos and instability." Turkey has long occupied portions of northern Syria, precisely where terrorists have operated and conducted mass killings - particularly targeting Kurds and minority groups like Christians and Alawites.
​  Regarding recent sectarian killings and unrest in Suwayda province and Israel’s intensified strikes on Damascus, Turkish officials warned that these actions have exacerbated tensions between Druze groups and the Syrian government. But it is the HTS Syrian government which have committed the bulk of atrocities carried out against Druze civilians and even clerics.
​  In the north, there's currently a deal underway for the Kurdish YPG - affiliated with the outlawed PKK - to lay down its arms, which it has been resistant to.
At the same time there's a Pentagon presence in northern Syria and in the east, and the occupation shows no signs of withdrawing.
​  Saudi Arabia too is eyeing greater participation in the supposedly 'new Syria' - now that Assad has exited​.

​  A federal judge on Wednesday denied a Department of Justice request to unseal grand jury transcripts related to a mid-2000s criminal investigation into sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
 Earlier this month, the Department of Justice (DOJ) petitioned a federal court in Florida to release the transcripts of testimony from witnesses who appeared before a grand jury in the first case against Epstein.
​  In a 12-page order on July 23, U.S. District Judge Robin Rosenberg denied the government’s petition to unseal those transcripts, adding that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit doesn’t permit her court to grant such a request.​

​  Dr.Ladapo's​ Call to Action: Fund Research and Care for the Vaccine-Injured
​  Rather than simply condemning the vaccines, Dr. Ladapo dedicated much of his speech to advocating for the victims of vaccine injury. He applauded Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s May announcement removing mRNA Covid-19 shots from recommended use in healthy kids and pregnant women – a policy Florida itself adopted earlier.
​  But crucially, Dr. Ladapo said this must be followed by concrete support for those already harmed. He called on federal agencies, especially the National Institutes of Health (NIH), to expand their research into vaccine injuries and long-term post-vaccine complications. “Today, I want to call on the federal government, [on] NIH, to expand the work that they are doing in long Covid to genuinely and wholly include vaccine-injured people – specifically, people who have been injured by mRNA Covid-19 vaccines,” Dr. Ladapo urged. In his view, resources devoted to “long Covid” should equally address post-vaccine syndromes, which many believe share overlapping symptoms and mechanisms.​
