Please ignore the dog & pony distraction around the #Nobel Peace Prize.

It's already been awarded to a war criminal (Kissinger), a genocide apologist (Aung San Suu Kyi), and a head of state who bombed many counties & assassinated people (Obama).

The whole thing is a performance of geopolitical hegemony, by elites, for elites. Nothing about what's happening around it recently is unusual.

There are real people with actual material needs that need your attention instead.

Trump is working on regime change in Europe — fact, not conspiracy theory

The US State Department published a memo urging Washington to back far-right parties in EU elections to build obedient “civilizational allies,” branding mainstream Europe as anti-democratic and making threats against governments that resist—effectively exporting Trump’s culture war to erode European sovereignty.

Plans by Israel’s defence minister to force all Palestinians in Gaza into a camp have been condemned by legal experts and academics, who described the scheme as a blueprint for “crimes against humanity”.

Israel Katz said he has ordered Israel’s military to prepare for establishing a camp, which he called a “humanitarian city”, on the ruins of the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, according to Haaretz.

The UN human rights office on Tuesday raised alarm over reported proposals that Israel is working with other countries, including the US, to potentially facilitate the so-called voluntary movement of Palestinians out of Gaza, warning that such plans could amount to forcible transfer under international law.

"This raises concerns with regard to forcible transfer," spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani told reporters.

BBC | #Israel 's defence minister says he has instructed its military to prepare a plan to move all Palestinians in Gaza into a camp in the south of the territory, Israeli media reports say.

One Israeli human rights lawyer condemned it as nothing less than an "operational plan for a crime against humanity".

"It is all about population transfer to the southern tip of the #Gaza Strip in preparation for deportation outside the strip,"

Central Gaza’s Al-Aqsa Hospital to run out of fuel within hours

It is one of the barely functional hospitals left in the central area, and this chronic shortage will have severe repercussions on the lives of many patients who are receiving treatment inside, and will lead to the potential suspension of a number of medical services, including kidney dialysis treatment.

ALEX JONES SAYS A DEAL WAS MADE WITH THE DEEP STATE CONCERNING EPSTEIN

( No Deals! )

====Bullhorn Barry📢 (Opinion / News)

According to Alex, the Deep State is supposedly going to roll over and let Trump do his thing—as long as he backs off the Epstein disclosures.

Yeah… no. That’s never going to happen.

You can’t make deals with devils.

Now, I’m not even saying I believe that claim—but IF there’s any truth to it—NO DEALS CAN BE MADE! Personally, I think what's happening is something else, but I don't think anyone knows for sure except for those on the inside.

ARRESTS, INDICTMENTS & CONVICTIONS!

Trying to explain "How Capitalism Works" without mentioning its disastrous structural flaws for the masses is just a cover-up, albeit an entertaining one, I must admit.

#Capitalism needs "suckers" on an individual level, all the way to colonies on an "empire" level.

Fortunately, -although I have some doubts about stupidity-
both of these "characteristics" are beginning to disappear.
And this is precisely the path that capitalism will inevitably take.
