If this is the "National Security Threat" please note they started sending these into space with classified (nuclear?) payloads since at least November 2023 and it's at least the third one up there, therefore nothing new:

'Soyuz-2-1v launches classified payload'

"Military personnel in Plesetsk opened the 2024 Russian orbital launch campaigns with the liftoff of a Soyuz-2-1v rocket on February 9 carrying a payload for the Ministry of Defense. It was the 12th mission of the light-weight Soyuz variant since its introduction in 2013."

Today a law was passed in France qualifying any opposition to mRNA-LNP injections as a "sectarian aberration". It carries a penalty of up to 3 years' imprisonment and 45,000 euros.

“It will not tolerate any criticism of the therapeutic treatments which will be recommended or made obligatory by the state. Any person who dares to openly criticize these therapies will be liable to fines and imprisonment.”

A Russian space nuke absolutely makes sense in military terms:

A high-altitude Nuclear-EMP creates an electric free field incident powerful enough to damage any microcircuitry onboard satellites (see: Starfish Prime Test), especially modern electronics due to increasingly thin structures (therefore electric breakthrough occurs already at relatively low voltages). We are hardening military systems against such EM incidents by shielding, e.g. on a ship using its hull as a Faraday cage. This can't be done on a satellite due to weight constraints.

First, a space nuke would disable recon satellites, both RF (radio frequency) and EO (electro optical), therefore making command blind. Second, it would disable GPS, therefore severely reducing effectiveness of ballistic and cruise missiles guidance (inertial guidance is drifting over time, losing accuracy over longer distances). Third, communication satellites (military but also commercial such as Starlink) would be disabled, leaving troops without orders in time of crisis. Finally, radars are cluttered for days by charged particles bouncing along earth's magnetic field lines, emitting EMI, making air defense and air operations almost impossible.

It would instantaneously nullify most of the US most powerful military assets. It's the ultimate preemptive strike weapon, so it's clear why they would be concerned.

Of course no WW3 will break out, but instead they will use this to beg for more money (as always) to spend on useless high-altitude air defense systems (mainly LMT & RTX, over years to come).

Pro-Palestine protesters target Tory MP Tobias Ellwood's family home

Former defence minister was inside with his children when demonstrators surrounded the property for several hours.

"Pro-Palestine protesters have targeted a Conservative MP’s home accusing him of being “complicit in genocide”.
Dozens of activists stood outside Tobias Ellwood’s family home in Dorset brandishing flags, placards and a megaphone.
The former defence minister, who represents Bournemouth East, was at home with his children during the demonstration which ended at about 9pm on Monday.
Police were called and Operation Bridger, a security scheme to protect the homes and constituency offices of MPs, was implemented."

Being anti-genocide does not make you "pro-Palestine": it just means you are not in denial about what is really going on.

I've never considered myself as "pro-Palestine". I have always considered myself as anti-genocide.

Therefore another way of phrasing it is: anti-genocide protesters uphold the Genocide Convention which states genocide must be stopped by ANY means possible, including protests in any public location. Do they have this right? They certainly do.

As someone who believes in International Law I have no problem in condemning Hamas' kidnapping of hundreds of civilians. I of course condemn Israel's government & army many thousand times more for their killing of tens of thousands of civilians, including women & children. I do condemn both Hamas and Israel, but I condemn Israel A LOT MORE.

If you can't protest outside a politician's home then it is not a democracy you are living in. Democracy means the politician actually listens to the protesters and changes their policy accordingly. When protesting is outlawed it is called totalitarianism.

There is no war against Hamas, there was no war against Hamas, there never will be a war against Hamas. Hamas is essential to Netanyahu's Greater Israel project. Hamas is the foundation of Netanyahu's political career. He will never, ever fight Hamas. This has always been obvious to those who actually use their brains.

HEROES: BAE Systems in Govan, Glasgow shut down by anti-genocide protest:

"Around 100 activists have blockaded a Glasgow factory as they call for a halt in weapons exports to Israel and an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
BAE Systems produces various components of weapons which are sold to Israel, including the F35 combat aircraft and the MK 38 Mod 2 machine gun system, and demonstrators blockaded the entrance to its Govan plant on Thursday morning.

From around 5am a group of around 100 blocked the gates to the factory as they called for a cessation of hostilities against Yemen and Gaza and the halting of weapons sales to Israel.

In addition, the group demanded that Scottish Enterprise stop using public money to fund companies which manufacture weapons such as BAE Systems, Leonardo and Raytheon."

Instead of whingeing about protesters outside their homes politicians should learn that is who they are working for and therefore they should CHANGE THEIR POLICIES ACCORDINGLY. They do not work only for the 0.1% they work MAINLY for the 99.9%.

Constituents who do not feel their MP is listening to them should ALWAYS be able to protest outside their MPs home in a REAL democracy and the MP should listen to them accordingly and NOT party politics.

The Blinkens of Ukraine

"Tony Blinken’s great-grandfather, Meir Blinken, was born in 1879 in Pereiaslav, the birthplace of the famous Yiddish writer Sholem Aleichem, not far from Kyiv. During his childhood, Meir had a Jewish education at the Talmud-Torah, a religious elementary school.

When Meir was 25 years old, he and his young family moved to the U.S., a tiny drop in the flood of 105,000 Jews who arrived in America in 1904.

His son, Moritz (1900–1986), Tony’s grandfather, who would become a prominent American lawyer and businessman, was born in Kyiv."

'I come before you as a Jew,' Blinken tells Israel after Hamas attack - Israel News - The Jerusalem Post

“My grandfather, Maurice Blinken, fled pogroms in Russia. My stepfather, Samuel Pisar, survived concentration camps – Auschwitz, Dachau, Majdanek,” Blinken said as he referenced both eastern European persecution and the Holocaust."

https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-767997

So, Anthony Blinken's grandfather fled Kiev for America. Blinken then says he fled Russia, implying Ukraine did not exist and Kiev was Russia. He says he fled anti-Jewish pogroms "in Russia", yet those pogroms were in today's Ukraine. All clear now?

Oh and Blinken's stepfather Samuel Pisar was the lawyer and advisor to Robert Maxwell, Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell's father, as well as WEF operative Isabel Maxwell's father.

US hysteria over Russian nuclear arms in space is just smoke and mirrors

The US mainstream media's comments on the groundless rumors of Russia's development of space-based nuclear arms are contradictory, Dmitry Stefanovich of the Moscow-based Institute of World Economy and International Relations with the Russian Academy of Sciences told Sputnik.

"Some say that something has already been deployed [in space], some say that something is planned to be deployed, some are talking about nuclear arms, and someone are speculating about nuclear power equipment," Stefanovich said, adding that it resembles nothing more than an exercise in smoke and mirrors.

Russia placing nuclear weapons in space is nonsensical given that it would go contrary to Moscow's obligations as a signatory country and, moreover, as a depositary country of the Outer Space Treaty, the expert stressed.

One should also bear in mind that the use of nuclear weapons in space would destroy spacecraft indiscriminately, knocking out American and Russian satellites alike, and those of third countries, too, Stefanovich continued.

"The militarization of space began, in fact, simultaneously with the beginning of the space age. Space has always had a military dimension. Russia's position is that we need a legally binding document to prevent the placement of weapons in space. We need to stop the arms race in outer space," the expert underscored.

Former CIA head Mike Pompeo filmed dancing with Israeli soldiers next to Gaza

The former U.S. Secretary of State and CIA Director Mike Pompeo was seen dancing with Israeli soldiers near the Gaza border, an act that some criticize as glorifying the ongoing genocide and suffering in Gaza.
