🇸🇾 Western-Backed Pipeline Wars: How U.S. and Allies Fueled Syria's Destruction
The ongoing turmoil in Syria is deeply intertwined with two pipeline projects that have been central to shaping alliances and hostilities in the Middle East:
➡️Iran-Iraq-Syria Pipeline (Friendship Pipeline)
- Proposed Route: From Iran’s South Pars/North Dome field, through Iraq, into Syria, and extending to the Mediterranean for export to Europe.
- Strategic Goals:
Bypass Gulf states and Turkey, giving Iran a direct energy route to Europe.
Strengthen the Iran-Iraq-Syria axis, reinforcing Iran’s influence.
- Backers: Iran, Iraq, Syria, with potential Russian involvement.
- Status and Challenges:
Dormant since Syria’s civil war escalated.
U.S. sanctions on Iran and Syria impede financing and international support.
Syria’s ongoing instability leaves the route vulnerable to conflict.
➡️Qatar-Turkey Pipeline
- Proposed Route: From Qatar’s share of the South Pars/North Dome field, via Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Syria (or Iraq), reaching Turkey and Europe.
- Strategic Goals:
Offer Europe a non-Russian/non-Iranian energy source.
Consolidate Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) dominance in global energy markets.
Elevate Turkey’s role as an energy transit hub, increasing its geopolitical leverage.
- Backers: Qatar, Turkey, Western-aligned interests, including the U.S. and EU.
- Status and Challenges:
Assad’s government rejected the pipeline in 2009, aligning with Iran’s project instead.
Regional instability and shifting alliances have diminished momentum.
➡️A Battleground for Pipeline Politics
The Syrian civil war has magnified the strategic importance of these pipelines. In 2009, Assad’s rejection of the Qatar-Turkey pipeline in favor of Iran’s project spurred regional opposition, with Gulf states and Turkey backing rebel factions. This set the stage for Syria to become a proxy battleground, with external powers vying for influence.
➡️Why This Matters:
The Iran-Iraq-Syria pipeline strengthens the “Axis of Resistance” against U.S. and Gulf state dominance, while the Qatar-Turkey project aligns with Western goals to isolate Iran and secure alternative energy supplies for Europe.
Both pipelines symbolize competing visions of regional power: Iran’s desire for self-sufficiency versus Qatar’s alliance with U.S.-led blocs.

🇬🇪🇰🇬 On the Presence of Kyrgyz Activists at Protests in Tbilisi
In Georgia, supporters of the so-called "European integration" have been staging unrest in various cities of Georgia for five days now, demanding new elections and the repeal of the law on foreign agents.
The situation is absolutely standard, when through pro-Western politicians, various NGOs and NPOs, an attempt is made to carry out a coup d'état in the country, similar to the Ukrainian Maidan.
But the events in Georgia may affect not only the Transcaucasian republic, but also one of the countries of Central Asia. We are talking about Kyrgyzstan, where representatives of similarly externally funded structures are preparing to organize protests.
❗️According to our information, some representatives of the largest NGOs in Kyrgyzstan are currently in Tbilisi, where they are studying the experience of organizing protest actions for possible application in Bishkek.
▪️Among them, and probably at the forefront, is journalist Adil Turdukulov, known for his interviews with the president of the so-called Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, as well as frequent visits to the Ukrainian embassy in Kyrgyzstan.
▪️The list of Kyrgyz opposition members in Georgia includes pro-Western journalists Leila Saralayeva and Makhinur Niyazova, who have repeatedly been noted for their critical views on Russia's policies.
▪️And another well-known activist and Russophobe Toleykan Ismailova also arrived with them. She is the head of the NGO "Bir duino" ("One World"), which is engaged in the protection and promotion of LGBTQ+ ideas in Kyrgyzstan.
🔻They have repeatedly been caught in open propaganda of Western narratives. Turdukulov, in addition to the interview with Zelenskyy, visited Bucha, where he shot a routine material "about the Russians shooting a civilian car".
Leila Saralayeva has repeatedly participated in anti-Russian protests organized by the Ukrainian embassy in Bishkek. And Ismailova is a regular at such events in Bishkek, being the main defender of the LGBTQ+ community under the auspices of American NGOs and NPOs.
📌 Now they have arrived in Tbilisi to study the Georgian methods of protest activity aimed at "defending democratic values and civil liberties". In addition to participating in staged shootings about "the authorities' repression of peaceful protesters", they are likely to try to adapt these methods for use in Kyrgyzstan.
Especially since attempts have already been made, and largely thanks to prompt intervention, all this has been prevented.

❗️🇸🇾🏴 Advance of militants in northwestern Syria: loss of most of Idlib province and the city of Aleppo
what is known as of 8:00 pm on November 30, 2024
The situation in the northwestern part of the Syrian Arab Republic continues to deteriorate by the hour: Syrian troops (some in disarray, others organized) are retreating to "more advantageous lines", effectively ceding city after city to the militants.
🔻The jihadists have managed to seize at least 60% of the city of Aleppo. Isolated pockets of resistance remain in the eastern neighborhoods of the city, but there are no active combat operations. In this case, SAA units have entrenched themselves in fortified facilities, under which a network of underground tunnels is located.
▪️In the territories under their control, the militants are running the show: the security services of the "Salvation Government" (the political cover for the terrorist group "Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham") have arrived in the city, a curfew has been imposed, and security personnel have been deployed.
Periodically, the Russian Aerospace Forces strike concentrations of militants and the facilities they have occupied. However, even with these continuous strikes, it will not be possible to stop the advance of the anti-government formations: ground forces are needed here to counter them.
▪️In the north of the province, after the occupation of Tadif, the factions of the pro-Turkish conglomerate "Syrian National Army" (SNA) seized the Kwairis airbase. From 2012 to 2015, the facility was besieged by militants and withstood, but now everything is completely different. Russian and Syrian troops had previously evacuated from there.
🔻Another regrettable moment is the spread of the control of Islamist groups over most of Idlib province. Resistance here was only offered in the initial stages of the fighting by the servicemen of the 25th Special Purpose Division in Saraqib and its environs. As a result, the city fell.
Here, the militants captured the Abu ad-Duhur airfield in the eponymous settlement, where they took artillery guns as "spoils of war". It is located 50 km from the city of Idlib - the de facto center of HTS and its puppet government. Notably, the city fell on the same day as Kwairis.
📌Syrian resources can accuse Russia as much as they want of allegedly allowing this tragedy to happen. However, the determining factor here is the lack of proper understanding of the situation by the Syrian military command and the lack of interest of SAA units in fighting for their country.
Given these factors, no intensity of air force use will save the actual state of affairs - the flight of the armed forces of the Arab Republic and the "blitzkrieg" of various extremist bandit formations, which do not encounter much resistance, continues.

💥 The Fragility of Modern Deterrence: Are We Sleepwalking into Nuclear Armageddon?
(As of writing we are in the midst of a powerful Russian response across Ukraine). Fyodor Lukyanov, in his incisive analysis, points out that the ongoing standoff over Ukraine has effectively become a direct confrontation between Russia and NATO (US), two nuclear-armed entities now operating without the safeguards of Cold War diplomacy. The breakdown of private, backchannel communication, once the cornerstone of managing nuclear deterrence, has given way to comms via public posturing playing out in a media war. This dangerous shift has dramatically increased the likelihood of catastrophic miscalculation.
During the Cold War, an imperfect yet functional system of discreet diplomacy allowed for signals to be sent and received with clarity. Mutual understanding, even between enemies, helped prevent misunderstandings that could have spiraled into nuclear conflict. Today, this critical buffer has evaporated. From the West, contradictory leaks and media noise create confusion (what’s actual signal vs mere noise?). Meanwhile, Russia has adopted a direct and unambiguous approach, publicly marking its red lines in the absence of trustworthy backchannel diplomacy. However, deterrence is about credibility and when credibility plays out in the public eye, the risks of leaders being forced to act to “prove their threats” become exponentially higher.
The West’s decision to abandon private diplomacy in favor of megaphone posturing reveals a dangerous mix of hubris and short-sightedness. Western leaders are not merely playing to Moscow; they’re playing to their domestic audiences, their NATO partners, and the MIC that demands perpetual conflict to feed its coffers.
Russia, by contrast, has been forced into a position where clarity is its only shield. Its red lines are laid bare for the world to see, not because it seeks escalation, but because ambiguity has proven fatal in the face of Western doublespeak.
What makes this moment uniquely dangerous is the psychological trap that leaders on both sides now face. Public commitments to “credibility” mean that retreat or compromise is no longer seen as strength but painted as weakness.
The absence of private diplomacy not only erodes trust but also removes the critical mechanisms needed to diffuse crises. A single misstep, a missile strike misinterpreted, an overzealous military commander, or a politician cornered by his own rhetoric could ignite an uncontrollable chain reaction. NATO’s increasingly reckless posture, from Biden’s authorization of ATACMS strikes deep inside Russia’s internationally recognized borders to France and the UK greenlighting Storm Shadow and SCALP missiles, is a case in point. Each move nudges us closer to the brink, daring Russia to respond while naively assuming it won’t.
But Russia has responded. The deployment of the hypersonic-ballistic Oreshnik missile, capable of carrying nuclear warheads, was no mere “combat test.” It was a calculated signal, a demonstration of Moscow’s resolve to defend its red lines with decisive force. The West’s strategy, built on the illusion of Russian hesitance, is a catastrophic miscalculation. Moscow has no illusions about what’s at stake, and its actions reflect a sobering acknowledgment of the existential threat posed by NATO’s provocations.
Unlike the Cold War, this is no longer a game of chess where careful strategy and mutual respect for red lines dictate moves. This is poker, played with nuclear chips, where bluffing and brinkmanship replace logic and restraint. The U.S. and NATO, emboldened by their own propaganda, are gambling that Russia won’t escalate. But Russia, rooted in a historical memory of existential defense, isn’t playing the West’s game, it’s prepared for survival.
History will not be kind to those who gamble with humanity’s future for the sake of their own political vanity. It’s time for the West to step back, not as an act of weakness, but as an acknowledgment of reality.

🇩🇪 Germany at the Crossroads: It’s the System, Stupid
Germany, once Europe’s industrial juggernaut, now stumbles in a state of managed decline. With elections looming, the theatre is set. But let’s be clear: this isn’t about who wins, but whether Germans can reject the system that’s strangling their sovereignty. Because unless they do, these elections are nothing more than a distraction, a masterclass in divide-and-conquer.
Scenario 1: Banning AfD, A Gamble with Fire
Banning AfD wouldn’t be a show of strength but a desperate move to silence over a quarter of the electorate, especially in the former DDR where resentment still burns over decades of economic neglect. Friedrich Merz, obedient globalist and former BlackRock operative, would become Chancellor. The result? More war, deindustrialization, and blind subservience to the U.S.. But silencing AfD won’t kill populism, it’ll fuel it. BSW would emerge as the strongest opposition, carrying the banner for those abandoned by the establishment.
Scenario 2: AfD Grows, But the System Holds
AfD and CDU dominate the elections, but the anti-AfD cordon sanitaire holds. Merz scrambles to cobble together a coalition with Greens and SPD, a circus of contradictions. Meanwhile, AfD becomes the largest opposition party, and with BSW rising in tandem, Germany’s parliament turns into a warzone of populist resistance.
But the cracks widen as Germany faces 3 brutal realities: NATO’s inevitable defeat in Ukraine, an economic crisis fueled by sanctions and energy dependency, and mounting unrest from a population tired of being sacrificed on the altar of vassalage.
Scenario 3: AfD Triumphs – The System Strikes Back
An AfD victory would trigger nothing short of institutional war. Mockingbird media, and globalist puppeteers would unleash chaos: mass protests, endless scandals, “mystery” corruption charges, and lawfare targeting AfD leaders. Color revolution tactics, international condemnation, and Soros-funded street movements would all be in play.
It’s the System, Stupid
These scenarios expose a single rigged system. This election isn’t about who governs, it’s about maintaining control while gaslighting the public into thinking change is possible. Divide and conquer, with AfD voters demonized as extremists and BSW supporters dismissed as utopian dreamers, all while the establishment engineers the decline..
Here’s the uncomfortable reality: Germany’s democracy is theatre, scripted to ensure one outcome, continued vassalage to Washington. The Nord Stream sabotage was a declaration of U.S. dominance over Europe. Germany’s leaders didn’t even flinch. Their silence was an endorsement of their own country’s humiliation.
If Germans want real change, it’s not about winning elections within a rigged system, it’s about rejecting the system itself. Imagine a post-SMO world where Germany reclaims sovereignty, realigns with Russia and China, and embraces BRICS. Imagine restoring its industrial base, securing cheap energy, and forging a just peace in Europe. This isn’t a fantasy, it’s a choice. But to make it, Germans must first wake up to the fact that their political elite serves Washington, not Berlin.
“Yankee, Go Home” The Cry of Sovereignty
The 80’s saw mass protests demanding the removal of U.S. missiles and troops. It’s time for Germans to rediscover that spirit, to say "Yankee, go home" and reclaim their sovereignty. NATO has turned Europe into an American buffer, draining its resources, compromising its security, and hijacking its future.
A sovereign Germany could help lead Europe in a multipolar world, standing with the Global Majority rather than kneeling before DC. The alternative? Continued decline, economic ruin, and an electorate manipulated into fighting itself while the true oppressors profit from the chaos.
The real question isn’t about CDU, AfD, or BSW, but whether Germans can see through the charade. The rigged script won’t save them; only rejecting NATO servitude and imagining a future aligned with the Global Majority can.

⚡️ AFGHANISTAN: THE SHADOW OF THE GREAT GAME - OUR INVESTIGATION INTO THE CRIMES OF THE BRITISH ARMED FORCES
This year, the @rybar team went to Afghanistan to investigate the crimes of the British contingent during the occupation of the country. We met with high-ranking members of the still-banned Taliban movement, traveled from Kabul to Kandahar and Helmand, and searched.
We searched for eyewitnesses, burned poppy fields, and forward British bases. And we found them.

❗️4000 year old Damascus has fallen. One of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities and certainly the oldest capital. Aramean, Assyrian, Greek, Roman, even Persian, Byzantine, Arabic, Ottoman, French, and finally what it has always been - Syrian. A bulwark against the Kingdom of Israel, conquests by the Mongols, the Crusaders. The very embodiment of the history of the Middle East.
Fourth holiest city in Islam. Long one of the most important Christian centres. A hub for trade with the east and the desert. A crossroads - Africa, Arabia, Persia and the far east, Constantinople/Istanbul and Europe. A symbol of tolerance of religious and cultural diversity - Christians, Sunnis, Shiites, Alawites, Jews.
But also a symbol of endurance, millennial resistance and adaptation. Until this week.
Corruption, poverty and incompetence. Heads in the sand.
Now Damascus has been taken by an unholy alliance.
Jihadist pawns of the CIA and MI6.
Erdogan and his neo-Ottoman dreams.
Bibi forging his Greater Israel from the Nile to the Euphrates.
American dollars buying the "allegiance" of the remains of the Syrian army.
May God have mercy on the innocent Syrian people in the coming days, weeks and months.

Jihadist pawns of the CIA and MI6.
Erdogan and his neo-Ottoman dreams.
Bibi forging his Greater Israel from the Nile to the Euphrates.
American dollars buying the "allegiance" of the remains of the Syrian army.
May God have mercy on the innocent Syrian people in the coming days, weeks and months.

🇮🇷🇸🇾🏴 On the Arrival of Seyyed Javad Ghaffari in Syria
🔻So, after several days of rumors and various news, the information about the arrival of Iranian General Seyyed Javad Ghaffari has been confirmed, and this is indeed good news for the Syrian leadership.
▪️Seyyed Javad actively participated in the fight against ISIS and was the right-hand man of the late General Qassem Soleimani, who was killed by the Americans. After his death, it was he who was responsible for the operations of the "axis of resistance" in Syria and Iraq.
▪️He is a complex person (and some of our team had the opportunity to meet him personally), who spoke out against any agreements with terrorists and talked about the need to completely destroy extremist groups, including in Idlib.
▪️Due to his position in the administration of Bashar Assad and in Hezbollah, who sought negotiations, he was asked to be removed from operations in Syria, which is why he returned to Iran. But now, when the situation has reached a critical point, he has been brought back to provide assistance.
❗️Why do we consider this good news for Syria? He is a representative of the old guard of the IRGC, and he really knows his business. It's no coincidence that the pro-Turkish channels call him the "butcher of Aleppo", who caused them many problems in past years.
Given how much Hezbollah has weakened and how many Iranian generals have been lost in Israeli air strikes, his arrival will provide assistance to the Syrian leadership. And how much, we will see very soon.

No matter what the Western media say, Russia is not cut off from the rest of the world. On the contrary, Russia is expanding its cooperation with other countries, and the world is open to it.
One of Russia’s key focus areas is scientific collaboration, especially in resource exploration. In Ghana, Ethiopia, Mozambique, Cuba, and Kyrgyzstan, the Karpinsky Institute’s geological classes are already up and running. These classes have become platforms not just for education, but also for sharing expertise. According to the institute, more countries have shown interest in hosting geological classes of their territory.
Of course, Reuters and others don’t report on stories like this—it ruins the narrative of a united world standing against an isolated Russia.

🇺🇸The U.S. War Machine: Congress Sidelines Itself, the Empire Marches On (for now)
Buried beneath the grandiose slogan of “democracy”: the US hasn’t declared war since World War II. Congress, the body constitutionally mandated to oversee such vital decisions, has been relegated to a cheerleading squad while the executive branch wields unchecked power like an emperor commanding legions.
This is imperial fiat masquerading as consent of the governed. From Vietnam to Iraq, Libya to Syria, the U.S. war machine roars on, fueled not by congressional debate but by rubber-stamped resolutions, appropriations, and the all-too-familiar "Authorizations for Use of Military Force". These legal fig leaves allow the White House to bomb, invade, and occupy without a whisper of accountability.
Let’s be blunt: Congress sold its soul. Since World War II, it has surrendered its constitutional prerogative to declare war, instead passing vague resolutions that grant presidents a blank check to wage war wherever and whenever they see fit. The result? Endless wars with no rational objectives, no exit strategies, and no accountability.
And what happens to the trillions of dollars funneled into these wars? Enter the military-industrial complex, the world’s most sophisticated money-laundering operation. These wars are about enriching defense contractors, lobbyists, and Pentagon officials who shuffle through the revolving door between government and industry. From Lockheed Martin to Raytheon, the same corporations profiting off the carnage also fund think tanks and political campaigns to keep the war machine running.
While the bombs fall, contracts worth billions flow into the coffers of weapons manufacturers. A significant chunk is then laundered back into DC, disguised as campaign contributions or lucrative speaking gigs. The Pentagon’s own accounting is so opaque that $2 trillion in spending has been deemed "untraceable." And let’s not forget Ukraine or Israel, the MIC’s latest cash cow, where tens of billions in U.S. aid vanish into a black hole of corruption.
The wars of the 21st century don’t even bother with pretense. Forget declarations; the U.S. now engages in hybrid wars, proxy conflicts, economic strangulation through sanctions, and information warfare. Syria, Yemen, Venezuela, these are not declared wars, but they are wars nonetheless, waged in the shadows with the same deadly consequences. And behind every drone strike or sanction lies another bloated defense budget, another no-bid contract, another slush fund for the MIC.
The Declare War Clause was meant to check power, to ensure that the decision to spill blood was taken soberly and democratically. Instead, it has been sidelined by an empire that cannot stop expanding, an empire that feeds on forever wars. This is not about defending freedom, but controlling resources, securing markets, and maintaining hegemony at any cost.
And as BRICS rises, as the Global majority asserts its sovereignty, the Empire grows more desperate.
Its (losing) wars: kinetic, economic, and informational, are not signs of strength but of fragility, the thrashing of a system that cannot adapt to a multipolar world.
Who benefits from this endless bloodshed? Not the American people, saddled with $38 trillion in national debt and over $200 trillion in unfunded liabilities. The winners are the same cabal that profits whether the bombs drop or not: defense contractors, Wall Street speculators, and the political elite.
The MIC is not just about war but about money laundering on an imperial scale. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? Cash cows. The conflict in Ukraine? A feeding frenzy for weapons dealers and their political masters.
This is not just America’s problem. The endless wars waged by the U.S. ripple out, destabilizing nations, wrecking economies, and displacing millions.
The Empire stumbles, but it won’t fall on its own. It’s time to push harder. The age of unaccountable wars and untraceable profits must end.

A reminder of past history. Same game plan 30 years ago
1993. The Independent interviews Osama Bin Laden, who was now apparently a simple "construction engineer and an agriculturalist" in Sudan. All those interested in American propaganda must read the attached article! More so as it was penned by Robert Fisk, possibly the most prestigious western journalist in the Middle East over the past half century.
This whitewashing of Osama bin Laden in the early 1990s was a crass reframing of him as a visionary, a pious Saudi millionaire, building roads in Sudan and devoting himself to development. Conveniently ignored is that bin Laden was, at that very moment, laying the global foundations of al-Qaeda. This omission cannot be an accident, by then, al-Qaeda was already operational. Whether Fisk was in on the deception or not, really doesn't matter.
Part of what makes this narrative manipulation so egregious is the timing. The article appeared just a few months after the first World Trade Center bombing, an attack linked to bin Laden’s growing network. Global jihad was already underway. But the West wasn’t about to show their hand. Bin Laden, after all, had been their creature, created, funded, trained and armed by the CIA during the U.S.-backed Mujahideen struggle against the Soviets in Afghanistan. They were not about to disclose their asset nor discuss the realities of what would become known later as the Global War on Terror.
Today, as previously discussed, the same is unfolding with the "diversity friendly" Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), the Syrian militant group that emerged from al-Qaeda’s affiliate, al-Nusra Front. Like bin Laden in Sudan, HTS has rebranded itself, presenting an image across the entire western media of pragmatism and governance in Syria’s northwest. Western policymakers, along with Turkey, who both heavily support HTS, have encouraged this narrative, portraying the group as a stabilizing force and a counterweight to ISIS and Assad. The United States has quietly supported this dynamic, using HTS as a proxy to maintain influence in the region.
This is not about misunderstanding HTS; it is deliberate. HTS remains steeped in extremist ideology, ruling through fear, enforcing harsh Islamic law, and violently suppressing dissent. But just as bin Laden’s darker truths were obscured to serve geopolitical aims, HTS’s ongoing extremism is overlooked to present it as a “manageable” ally. Turkey’s backing of HTS has been instrumental, providing resources and political cover as Ankara uses the group to exert control over Idlib and counter Kurdish forces. And the United States sowing chaos wherever it can.
For those who dare to look, the parallels are plain as day. In the '90s, bin Laden’s whitewashing allowed him to consolidate his networks, ultimately leading to 9/11 (whether Al Qaeda as simple cover story, patsy, or perpetrator we may never really be sure). Today, HTS’s rebranding empowers another extremist force, with Turkey and the United States happy to utilize an extremist as long as they can say "he is our son of a bitch". The people of the country (Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Ukraine, ...), and long term consequences don't ever enter into the calculations.
The whitewashing of bin Laden, soon after the first World Trade Center bombing, wasn’t just a journalistic failure—it was all part of the plan. The rehabilitation of HTS follows the same cynical logic, with Turkey and America propping up a group whose true nature is all too clear. The cost of this will be paid by the Syrian people in blood.

🇷🇺🇺🇸⚠️Stoic Lavrov Drops the Punchline: A Chilling Warning to the West
When Sergey Lavrov sat down with Tucker Carlson, expectations were high. For years, Lavrov’s presence on the global stage has been nothing short of theatrical brilliance, a blend of sharp irony, razor wit, and a touch of swagger that could shame even the most skilled Western diplomats of yore. Lavrov, cigar in hand, has long been the unshakable statesman, the maestro of diplomacy who could eviscerate NATO hypocrisy with a smirk. But this time? Lavrov wasn’t playing for applause. This was a performance of a different kind: subdued, stoic, and surgical. For those paying attention, it was less about theatrics and more about signals - serious signals.
Lavrov’s delivery wasn’t meant to dazzle Carlson’s audience but to issue a calculated warning to Washington. Denying any official state of war with the U.S. - because legally, there isn’t one - Lavrov cut straight to the point: we’re already in a hybrid war. And in this war, no rules apply. NATO, Lavrov noted, has crossed one red line after another, utilizing ATACMS and Storm Shadow missiles to strike “mainland Russia.”
Russia’s Oreshnik hypersonic-ballistic test wasn’t just another display of superior military tech. Lavrov clarified the message: “We would be ready to use any means not to allow them to succeed in what they call the strategic defeat of Russia.” The subtext? Continued long-range attacks on Russian territory will have devastating consequences. Lavrov’s calm yet firm tone left no doubt, Russia will not blink, and any further provocation risks escalation the West is woefully unprepared for.
Lavrov also pointed to something chilling: NATO’s flirtation with catastrophe. He referenced STRATCOM officials discussing the concept of a “limited nuclear exchange,” as though such a scenario wouldn’t plunge the world into the abyss.
As for Britain, Lavorv’s silence said it all. Boris Johnson’s infamous visit to Kiev, where he ordered Zelensky to abandon Istanbul peace talks, encapsulates London’s kamikaze diplomacy. Unlike Germany or France, who at least maintain a pretense of dialogue, Britain has chosen to lead the charge of escalation and vile Russophobia. The unspoken message was clear: if Russia decides to make an example of any vassal, it will be London. Britain’s blind faith in U.S. protection is dangerously naive, given DC’s long history of sacrificing allies to save itself. Mutually assured destruction won’t be triggered over Britain.
NATO as an alliance is a parasitic protection racket, extorting loyalty and resources from its members while delivering only chaos. NATO’s expansion eastward, has ignored every Russian red line, pushing recklessly to Russia’s doorstep. Now, NATO’s overreach extends to the Indo-Pacific through AUKUS, underscoring its imperial overstretch.
Western hypocrisy, as always, was a central theme. Lavrov dissected how the UN Charter is selectively applied, preaching territorial integrity when convenient while ignoring self-determination. From Kosovo to Crimea, the double standards are glaring. For Lavrov, this conflict isn’t just about borders; it’s about the survival of Russians as a people and Russia as a sovereign state. For Moscow, this is existential.
The grim reality of near-total breakdown in U.S.-Russia dialogue adds another layer of danger. Outside basic missile notifications and prisoner swaps, the nuclear superpowers are barely speaking. Lavrov didn’t sugarcoat it: “The risks of miscalculation are greater than ever.”
Lavrov’s tone may have seemed understated, even subdued. But that misses the point. This wasn’t about delivering a headline-grabbing performance, it was about signaling the end of illusions in the West. Lavrov made one thing clear: Russia will survive this conflict, no matter the cost. This is no longer Lavrov the maestro of irony and witty takedowns. This is Lavrov the war diplomat, the seasoned statesman signaling the beginning of consequences. And for the West, that should be terrifying.

🇷🇺🇪🇹 Why does Russia need applied educational projects abroad?
It became known that in Ethiopia, after the opening of the geology class of the Karpinsky Institute, the first sambo center in the country was opened.
This is one of the stages of realization of the international project Sambo in Granite to promote the Russian sport as a part of Russian culture.
📌 Earlier we told you about the opening of Karpinsky geology classes in other African countries: Ghana and Mozambique. In addition, the Institute's projects are present in Kyrgyzstan and Cuba. And in the future there are plans to expand to other countries in Latin America, Asia and Africa.
The aim of the project is to create a network of scientific centers in friendly countries, on the basis of which (in addition, of course, to promote the Russian language through training and scientific exchange) it will be possible to solve problems related to geology and subsoil use, as well as with the formation of local personnel base for Russian-African projects.
🔻 All this together allows to form a fertile ground in the managerial and scientific elites of the countries where it is necessary to promote Russian economic and geopolitical interests.
And such applied projects are not only a good way to teach potential partners to speak with Russian specialists in the same language, but also an example for other potential investors who count not on immediate results, but on fundamental long-term cooperation.

❗️🇸🇾🏴 Offensive in northwestern Syria: taking the Citadel of Aleppo
1 pm, November 30, 2024
After overnight small skirmishes with Syrian troops (whose command assured that they managed to push back the militants), anti-government formations expanded their zone of control in the central part of Aleppo. The militants also had success in eastern Idlib.
🔻 Footage has surfaced on the web of what is happening at the Aleppo Citadel, showing excited members of the terrorist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and the pro-Turkish conglomerate Syrian National Army (SNA) coloring in the background of the cultural site.
For a long time, the citadel was considered an “impregnable fortress” that the Syrians believed the militants would certainly not be able to take. However, they “miscalculated” - at night this area fell almost without a single shot being fired. And now the green flag of the “moderate opposition” proudly hangs there.
▪️ In connection with the ongoing collapse of the Syrian Arab Army's defenses, the work of the Russian Armed Forces on the jihadists' facilities in the city has been recorded. However, the strikes are of a solitary nature. However, if the raids are continuous, there will be no need for action by ground forces.
▪️Meanwhile, in the north of Aleppo province, a “second front” has expectedly opened, but not against the Kurds: Turkish-backed SNA groups (Feylaq al-Sham and Firqat al-Sultan Murad) attacked the positions of government forces in the city of Tadif, claiming its complete capture.
Even if the information is true, there is nothing surprising about it - not only the reluctance of the SAR Armed Forces units to defend the state system played a role. The settlement is located on the line of contact, so the actual control was not clear even before that.
❗️ From Tadif, pro-Turkish forces can both launch an offensive to the north of Aleppo and try to seize the Russian-Syrian airbase of Quaires, located to the east of the administrative center of the province. Both options pose a danger to the further defense capabilities of the Syrian Armed Forces.
🔻In the east of Idlib province, the militants also had success: according to the footage that emerged, it was established that the anti-government forces not only occupied the town of Saraqib, but also advanced eastward to Qafr Amim. Armored vehicles were seen in its vicinity, but the settlement itself is under the control of Syrian troops.
Against the backdrop of the militants' offensive on Aleppo, there were also reports that neighborhoods of the city and some settlements to the north, which were abandoned by the Syrian Armed Forces units, came under the control of the Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces. However, no footage confirming this information has appeared on the Web so far.

❗️ From Tadif, pro-Turkish forces can both launch an offensive to the north of Aleppo and try to seize the Russian-Syrian airbase of Quaires, located to the east of the administrative center of the province. Both options pose a danger to the further defense capabilities of the Syrian Armed Forces.
🔻In the east of Idlib province, the militants also had success: according to the footage that emerged, it was established that the anti-government forces not only occupied the town of Saraqib, but also advanced eastward to Qafr Amim. Armored vehicles were seen in its vicinity, but the settlement itself is under the control of Syrian troops.
Against the backdrop of the militants' offensive on Aleppo, there were also reports that neighborhoods of the city and some settlements to the north, which were abandoned by the Syrian Armed Forces units, came under the control of the Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces. However, no footage confirming this information has appeared on the Web so far.

❗️🇷🇺🇸🇾 Hostilities resumed in Syria
This footage shows the “victorious” escape of the Syrian Arab Army from positions in the west of Aleppo province: today, pro-Turkish groups from the Syrian National Army conglomerate and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham terrorists launched an offensive on the axis of al-Sheikh Aqil - Kabtan al-Jebel and Anjarah, seizing advanced positions (and allegedly the villages themselves, but there is no objective monitoring footage yet).
Over the past two months, both the Rybar's team and the specialized officials who are engaged in intelligence and information work on Syria have been systematically communicating both publicly and through closed communication channels the full extent of information that an offensive is being prepared for.
🔻 What was known?
▪️ Militants were moving into the village of Kyafr Ta'ala, building up their group. Alarms were raised in the border areas and moved to forward positions.
▪️ Several control points were established, three offensive areas and three sectors of responsibility were assigned (so another offensive vector, as we assume, will be the Saraqib-An-Neirab section and the M4 highway).
▪️ The engineering of the terrain and the deployment of firing positions by both “moderate forces” from the Syrian National Army and terrorists from Hayat Tahrir al-Sham were carried out. Particular emphasis has been placed on Saraqib and the surrounding area.
▪️ Blood collection points were organized in advance.
📌 Turkey declared that it was not ready to normalize relations with Syria, putting all the blame on Damascus.
❗️ As a result, Operation Ready-to-Repel-Aggression was launched this morning, which pro-Turkish groups (Al-Hamza Division, Jabhat al-Shamiya, Sultan Suleiman Shah Division) justify by the need to stop the “inhumane bombardment,” “return homes to refugees,” and “restore justice.”
The Syrian Arab Army, of course, immediately defeated and killed everyone (this again raises the issue of the inertness of local information structures), but the footage of fleeing Syrians speaks for itself.
🔺 In the context of growing anti-Russian sentiments among the population of Syria itself against the backdrop of Russia's lack of a clear position on the Israeli air strikes, it would be very good if Russian negotiators and the military, as usual, resolved the situation and used the fact of rescue to remind Syrians of the importance of Russia and the Russian group.
Because it is obvious that the Syrian Arab Army were frightened fleeing Sadiqs (at least in some areas) and it is still so. And without outside help, they won't handle this issue.

Wikipedia Labels ADL ‘Unreliable’ - Small Victory in the Infowar
The sheer irony of it all. The ADL, long a bastion of selective outrage and the censorious gatekeeper of “acceptable discourse,” has finally found itself on the wrong side of its favorite weapon: credibility. Labeled "unreliable" by Wikipedia, a platform that itself serves as a curated playground for Western intelligence narratives; this moment feels like a crack in the armor of imperial propaganda.
For decades, the ADL has operated as the ideological air cover for DC and Tel Aviv’s endless wars of hegemony. From greenlighting genocide in Gaza to policing dissent in Western academia, the ADL’s doublethink has been a blunt instrument of control. Question the genocide in Palestine? You’re an antisemite. Critique the apartheid policies of a state built on perpetual occupation? Hate speech. And so, they built a fortress of intimidation, shielding the systemic obliteration of a people under the guise of “civil rights.”
But here’s the plot twist: Wikipedia, that bastion of neoliberal gatekeeping, just pulled the rug. Yes, Wikipedia, the digital billboard of CIA-approved narratives, decided that the ADL is no longer a reliable source on issues like antisemitism and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. When the Empire’s own mouthpieces begin eating their own, you know the gears of the propaganda machine are grinding against reality.
Let’s not mince words. The ADL and its partner-in-crime, AIPAC, are not just tools, they are weapons in the arsenal of forever wars. Through lobbying, media manipulation, and judicial intimidation, these entities have facilitated the flow of billions in military aid to sustain Israel’s war economy, all while silencing critics under the guise of fighting hate. Hate for whom, exactly? Certainly not for the displaced, bombed-out families of Gaza or the bullet-ridden corpses of journalists like Shireen Abu Akleh.
AIPAC’s lobbying blitzkrieg in Washington has ensured the U.S. bankrolls every missile that flattens a home in Khan Younis and every bullet that silences a child in the West Bank. The ADL provides the ideological justification, ensuring that any voice daring to call out apartheid is swiftly silenced, canceled, or worse, branded an enemy of humanity.
But here’s the rub: the empire of lies is starting to crumble. Despite its history of manipulating reality, even Wikipedia can’t hide the ADL’s obvious role as a narrative enforcer rather than an arbiter of truth. And while the platform still serves as a CIA-adjacent tool of narrative management, moments like these expose its own hypocrisy. The cracks are showing.
This isn’t just about Wikipedia or the ADL. It’s about the shifting tectonic plates of the global order. In the battle for hearts and minds, the West’s monopoly on truth is being shattered by a rising chorus of resistance. From BRICS to platforms like Telegram and X, the Global Majority is pushing back against decades of propaganda masquerading as journalism. The empire is losing control of the narrative and that terrifies them more than any kinetic war ever could.
But let’s not delude ourselves into thinking this signals a sea change. Wikipedia is still a platform that dances to the tune of the U.S. State Department. One minute, it’s labeling the ADL unreliable; the next, it’s airbrushing CIA coups in Latin America and whitewashing the war crimes of NATO. But the fact that a sacred cow like the ADL is now open to question? That’s a sign the system is glitching.
This is the infowar and for once, it feels like the narrative guardians of empire are stumbling. Don’t hold your breath, though. The ADL, AIPAC, and their imperial backers are nothing if not resourceful. The war they’re waging against truth, justice, and human dignity - isn’t over yet.
But for those in the trenches, this moment feels like a victory, however small. Because every crack in the facade of imperial control is a step closer to its ultimate collapse. And when it falls, the world will breathe a little freer.

Colleagues raised an extremely important and urgent problem - the need to protect national interests from malicious interference by foreign states. The use of migration flows, manipulation of historical facts, incitement of inter-ethnic conflicts and propaganda of Russophobia are tools of hybrid warfare aimed at weakening Russia.
Organizing systems for collecting data on offenses by migrants, identifying radicals and their ideologues, and creating a legislative framework that excludes such threats are top priorities. Migration policy should be structured in such a way as to protect the interests of Russian citizens, preventing any attempts at destabilization.
Externally funded textbooks, media and non-governmental organizations promote narratives that contradict historical truth and are aimed at destroying cultural identity. Russia must develop its own educational and humanitarian projects to strengthen its position in the post-Soviet space and maintain its cultural influence.
No less important is the fight against foreign agents of influence working through diplomatic or pseudo-public channels. What such activities lead to can be seen on the example of a large number of states.

🏴🇸🇾🖇 The American channel CNN has interviewed the leader of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), Abu Muhammad al-Julani, on the wave of successes of anti-government groups. According to him, the goal of the militants is to overthrow Bashar al-Assad and "build a new Syria" with "a government based on institutions and a people's council".
The terrorist leader again tried to distance himself from ties to "Al-Qaeda" with stories about the "transformation of his views". He also added that in the event of the fall of the government in Damascus, all foreign troops must leave Syrian territory, since "there will no longer be a need for them".
In response to questions from the journalist about documented repressions by HTS in Idlib, Al-Julani replied in the best traditions - he stated that he did not give such orders. By the way, in the interview he introduced himself by his real name - Ahmad al-Shara'a.
📌 The CNN interview is another element of the consistent legalization of HTS in the Western media landscape, which began several years ago. Al-Julani is portrayed as a pragmatic moderate Islamist who wants to build Syria for Syrians and guarantee the rights of all religious groups.
In reality, all such statements are not worth a broken penny, as can be seen from the actions of HTS in Idlib - the killings of dissenters and "tightening the screws" continue, only gradually and without unnecessary noise. And the group will not act against Turkish troops in Syria (at least at first).
However, the media legalization of the successor to the Syrian "Al-Qaeda" and its leader open up new great opportunities for the collective West to directly use the group for its own purposes.

Militants in Daraa have also launched an armed uprising.
From the US-controlled al-Tanf security zone in southern Homs, other militants went on the raid on Deir ez-Zor.
Russian think tank Rybar detailed the scenario of what is happening in Syria as early as two months ago. Shocking.

🇬🇧🇰🇬 British Corporations' Interest in Kyrgyz Uranium
An interesting meeting went largely unnoticed by the Kyrgyz public. On November 18, the Prime Minister of Kyrgyzstan met with British Ambassador Nicholas Bowler to discuss a project for developing the critical minerals industry.
Representatives from the consulting firm Boston Consulting Group (BCG) were also present. This is a major American firm that advises on business management and development. It has been involved in scandals related to the illegal extraction of natural resources.
🔻Why did we mention minerals and the British ambassador?
Over the past year, there has been ongoing news about the future of the Kyzyl-Ompol deposit near Lake Issyk-Kul. Its subsoil contains various resources, the largest of which is titanium magnetite. But it also has uranium reserves.
It is precisely the uranium deposits that have attracted the greatest interest from British investors. In February this year, Arielle Malard de Rothschild, a member of the Rotschild & Co board, visited Kyrgyzstan.
The key discussion topic was investments in Kyrgyzstan's mining industry. The Rothschild family had already turned its attention to Kyrgyz resources in the fall of last year, when talk of Kyrgyz uranium first emerged.
🔻Why have the British turned their attention to Kyrgyzstan now?
The answer may lie in the person who became the chairman of the board of Kyrgyzaltyn OJSC - Kubat Abdraymov, appointed to this position in January 2023. According to our information, he is the main lobbyist for handing control of the "Kyzyl-Ompol" to the British, being a staunch nationalist.
Looking at the retrospective of the two countries' relations, talks about British investment projects in Kyrgyzstan have intensified precisely since last year. And by a fortunate coincidence, Kyrgyzaltyn itself received permission to develop 15 deposits, including the uranium one.
❗️The renaissance of nuclear power worldwide has marked the beginning of a new "race for uranium". While a decision on the deposit near Issyk-Kul has apparently not yet been made, as the British ambassador continues to court cabinet after cabinet in Kyrgyzstan. And the largest globalist families are unlikely to simply leave this valuable resource without their attention.

🇷🇺❌🇺🇸The NATO Protection Racket Exposed: Seconds to Midnight
Ukraine’s ex-top general may not be wrong, kinetic World War III may have begun. But if this nightmare ignites into a full inferno, the blame lies not with Kiev but with its masters in DC and lead vassal-London, who have spent years engineering the conditions for this conflagration.
The latest round of escalation tells the tale: the U.S. authorizes ATACMS, the UK follows suit with Storm Shadows and Russia retaliates with Oreshnik, a hypersonic ballistic missile, leveling an industrial zone in Dnipropetrovsk. While Oreshnik wasn’t nuclear-tipped, the message was clear: you push; we’ll push harder. What’s unfolding is a deliberate script, albeit one written in desperation, authored by the West, with Europe and Ukraine cast as sacrificial lambs. When faced with cosmic humiliation (total defeat in Ukraine), the Deepstate goes full Dr. Strangelove.
The UK, ever eager to play the loyal attack poodle, has been leading the charge. Let’s not forget it was Boris Johnson who scuttled peace negotiations in Istanbul, ordering Zelensky to double down on confrontation instead of diplomacy. Britain’s suicidal zeal for escalation has earned it nothing but Russia’s righteous hatred and deservedly so. Unlike Germany and France, who at least maintain some dialogue with Moscow, the UK’s foreign policy is a kamikaze act of malice and myopia. Britain, it seems, truly has no friends, only its delusions of imperial grandeur.
And then there’s NATO. A grotesque parody of a protection racket. A Tony Soprano wannabe demanding "protection fees" from its shopkeepers, while offering nothing in return but manufactured fear and unnecessary wars. But here’s the difference: even Tony had the self-awareness to admit that “the best was behind him.” NATO, and its American godfather, cling to the illusion of invincibility, refusing to acknowledge the reality that the Global Majority. led by a resurgent Russia, is no longer buying their extortion and fraud.
The reality is cold: the US has no loyalty to its vassals. It engineered this war post-Soviet collapse, ramped it up in 2014, and set the stage for the SMO in 2022. It sabotaged Europe’s energy independence via state terror with the Nord Stream bombing, turning Germany from an industrial powerhouse into a gas-starved beggar reliant on overpriced American LNG. And when inflation suffocates Europe, when the energy crisis bites, does Washington offer subsidies or a Marshall Plan 2.0? No. It offers zero material help but more weapons at extortionist prices, more money laundering for its military-industrial complex, and gleefully extracts profits from Europe’s misery.
The UK should take note: the U.S. is happy to sacrifice you in the best of times, so what makes you think it will sacrifice ITSELF for you in the worst? If Russia were to launch a handful of strategic ICBMs at London (delivered faster than Dominoes Pizza- 15 minutes), would Washington risk annihilation for its loyal but disposable pawn? Of course not. The U.S. would wail, demand sanctions, but offer Russia an off-ramp, it would not risk mutual destruction for Britain. The protection racket would be exposed as a fraud, unable to shield its shopkeepers when the righteous-wolves arrive.
Russia knows this, as does the U.S. Only one nation has ever used nuclear weapons: the United States, on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The bluff works great on regimes like Saddam's Iraq or Gaddafi's Libya or CIA-asset turned "enemey" drug dealer Noriega in Panama. But the bluff doesn’t work on a nuclear superpower like Russia. What’s unfolding is the beginning of the end for NATO’s extortion empire. The Global Majority sees the racket for what it is: a failing enterprise reliant on fear, coercion, fraud and lies.
Europe and especially the UK, must wake up before it’s too late. You are not protected. You are pawns in a game where the empire holds no loyalty and no honour. And the resurgent forces of history, led by a fearless Russia, are calling the bluff.

🇺🇦 Unsurprising but true: Ukrainian authorities are beginning to revoke mobilization exemptions from an increasing number of specialists. Now, specialists from Ukrspecexport are being called up - those who in current circumstances have become unnecessary abroad but are very much needed in the AFU.
While previously, specialists capable of repairing Russian and Soviet-made aircraft and helicopters were in high demand in countries where this equipment is in service, now foreign partners prefer to reduce their cooperation with Ukraine.
This is because Kyiv can offer less and less: Russian strikes on Ukrainian production facilities have led to Ukraine being unable to manufacture and deliver spare parts and other equipment needed by foreign customers.
If specialists of this caliber are being sent to the trenches, it's interesting to see who will be next.
