“We’ve got a genocidal empire to bring down and a multipolar world to build in an atmosphere of schizophrenia, ignorance, unawareness, confusion, greed, anger, jealousy, arrogance, NATO and war.” Currently we stare into an abyss.

Daily Chronicles features those issues small or large, that have the potential to change our world.

Our work is focused on the anti-human systems that have to go, to be replaced by more straightforward and honest endeavors aimed at growing food worth eating, doing honest trade, healing people, traveling, building places worth living in, creating cool technology, going to space and learning useful things – right across the world.

I appreciate from the bottom of my heart the donations that keep flowing in! Blessings to all! Kindly keep donating to keep us up and running. We don’t have sponsors at all but depend on our readers for support. There are only a handful of sites of this nature, completely independent, left. We are BRICSies, we are NOT warmongers, and are committed to a path of zero imperialism and maximum multipolarity, both privately and in terms of our groups and countries. https://globalsouth.co/donate/

We are still in need of a technical person who can do a few projects and a research assistant who can help search out, prepare and post material.

People are generally in a state of shock and disbelief after the latest zionist atrocity. Zionist forces targeted at least 10 schools since the beginning of July – including at one point, four in four days.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

On Bangladesh, yes a grey on grey color revolution. The new interim leader of Bangladesh Muhammad Yunus, who took the oath of office as the country’s chief advisor earlier this week, is favored by the US Embassy, Wikileaks revealed, citing US diplomatic cables.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

This is not our usual fare for what is a home page.  But we must not forget the unforgiveable horror. This also tells us why we have counts of +- 40,000 Palestinians dead, but other scholars put the count closer to +- 200,000 which makes more sense and is in itself an undercount as there still are corpses under rubble. Nazis, Zionists .. it is the same ilk.

The cost for this is as George Galloway says: “If they propose the abandonment of all occupied territories as a mediation offer to Iran so that Iran doesn’t retaliate, I’m sure Iran would be ready to accept that kind of deal”. He also ‘uncercounts’, because there still is restoration for war crimes or true justice for the vile criminals.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Horrific scenes emerged in the aftermath of Israeli strikes on al-Tabi’in school in the al-Daraj neighborhood east of Gaza City, leaving over 100 Palestinians dead. This massacre was during prayers, to maximize civilian casualties.  These were displaced people and now they are shredded.

In stark contrast, a ‘charity’ high school in the Canadian city of Toronto has been training students to serve in the Israeli military, highlighting those graduates who are fighting for the occupying regime.

UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese slams the so-called “civilized nations” for their inaction amid the ongoing Israeli massacres of Palestinians in Gaza’s schools.

-Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in one school after another in Gaza.

-Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza with American and European weapons, while the so-called “civilized nations” remain indifferent.

Most of the world bears moral responsibility for allowing a genocide to continue.  The regular talk about ‘cease-fires’ is an eyeblind in my view.  These fulfill the purpose of changing the conversation, giving hope, dividing, and conquering yet again.  They create more than one faction which is then pitted against one another, yet again.

Russia has banned its aircraft from flying over Israeli airspace between 07:00 PM and 01:00 AM until August 16 amid ongoing tensions.

It’s a Houthi thing.  What do you think?  Those knives?

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The Ukrainian Forces are still attacking Kursk and Belgorod and Crimea.  The US reaction is similar to that of allowing the zionist entity to kill at will.  We have two wars going on, where the tactics are so similar it is uncanny.

– Russian air defenses shot down 75 Ukrainian drones overnight.  The Russian Defense Ministry reports that seven unmanned boats were also destroyed in the Black Sea heading towards Crimea – MoD

– Four Ukrainian drones struck a residential building in Shebekino, Russia’s Belgorod region.  Several apartments caught fire. There were no casualties – Governor.

– IDF struck at least 60 alleged terrorist targets in the Gaza Strip over the last 24 hours.  Israeli media claims fighter jets and helicopter gunships struck a combination of military buildings, weapons caches, and other terrorist infrastructure in the enclave.

The objectives are the very same.   Whereas the zionist entity wants to drive the Palestinians off their lands and decimate the culture and the people so that they can own their piece of the world, the hegemon wants to break Russia and divide it up into little pieces with borders of hegemonic choice.  The same for China and this is but a small list of three.  There are many more.  Hegemon wants to own it all!  It is time for this hegemonic and small part of the earth’s population to be driven back into some box so that the harm that they do institutionally according to their cultural norms, can be repaired.  “We lie, we cheat, we steal.”   I cannot see a relatively peaceful answer any longer.  For us in the RoW, the only answer today is to spread the word far and wide, to protect our groups, and to network to spread the message, to keep our local governments accountable if they don’t kill us first.     The Chinese continually talk about peace, and they are correct.  To build Peace on violence creates violence and little peace.  Hegemon breaks every peace initiative, as you will see from the NED paper posted today.  https://globalsouth.co/2024/08/09/the-national-endowment-for-democracy-what-it-is-and-what-it-does/

For hegemon to reach their objectives, they need perpetual war.  Our task is to deprive them of that.

A wonderful note from Pepe Escobar on his Telegram Channel.

“Amarynth at the irreplaceable Global South has given me the idea of turning a few snippets into a cogent column. I’m still in Koh Samui in paradisiacal conditions, but of course checking the news every hour or so. Yesterday was quite something – I did a geopolitical talk on the beach to the Samui expat community, an ultra-smart bunch from all over the world, great people with fantastic life experiences, some even flew in from other parts of Thailand, packed house, great Q&A – link will probably show up soon.”

Take some time off Pepe!  We have a mind-boggling and busy period ahead in our world.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Every morning I wake up way too early, thinking, has a war started, even before my feet hit the ground.  And even before a coffee, I am at the computer.  The second thought is thank God it has not started, followed by a final thought:  Oh No!  Gaza continues to suffer!

There is something profoundly wrong that the whole world is letting this happen and to think diplomacy will improve matters for the Palestinians, the Syrians, the Houthis, Hezbollah and the people of the region.  It is not only the peoples of the region, it is you and I who experience this nightmare viscerally, although at a distance, and you and I who became enemies of the entity when we have seldom thought of ourselves as enemies.  It is a suppurating sore on the consciousness of mankind.  We have had discussions on the site of women wanting to take up arms, in a sheer desperate attempt to do something about the pain inside all of us.

I dream of an international gunboat drive to the shores of Gaza, packed to the rafters with food and medical necessities, and missiles and weapons and soldiers, saying, OK entity, we are say 120 countries coming to the Gaza shores to assist the hapless people.  Just try and fire upon us.

I am on Medvedev’s side.  Syria non-regular troops are fighting back and yesterday took one of their oil refineries back.

Those Houthis – three for three

The missile, the UAVs and the naval forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out – with the help of Allah Almighty – a joint military operation targeting the ship (Contship Ono) in the Red Sea with a number of ballistic missiles and drones, and thanks to Allah the hit was accurate.

The Air Force has as well carried out a specific military operation targeting the American destroyer “Cole” in the Gulf of Aden with a number of drones, and thanks to Allah the operation achieved its goals successfully.

The naval forces carried out a specific military operation targeting the American destroyer “Laboon” with a number of ballistic missiles.

The targeting of the two American destroyers took place while they were crossing the Yemeni Armed Forces’ operations zone heading towards the northern Red Sea, within the continues American military protection that is being provided to the Israeli enemy.

The US presidential elections will take place on Tuesday, November 5, 2024.  Zelensky fwiw, for better or for worse, signed laws on the extension of martial law and mobilization in Ukraine till November 9.  He is trying to stretch out his supposed period of grace under the current administration up to the last minute.  This is a ‘put in the watch’ file item as I do not believe Russia will allow this, overtly or covertly.  If I was so inclined as to forward estimate, this war would be over soon.

We have the US and others on the necks of too many states in our world.  We have the BRICS leader’s summit in October 2024 in the Russian city of Kazan.  That is a watershed date.

34 YEARS WORTH OF FACTORIES CAN BE GONE IN HALF AN HOUR warns Hezbollah SG Sayyed Nasrallah in latest speech, listing off components of $131 BILLIONS worth in Israeli industries in the North of the country, where war is waging heavy effects, threatening Tel Aviv that the Lebanese resistance group can break it in an instant.

Iran, Hezbollah, the Houthis and Iraq finds joy in keeping the US and Israel on its toes while the attack, or the retribution is slow in coming.  Oh it will come, but in a way none of us can imagine easily.  There is much talk of a combined attack, but so far, it remains talk.  Israeli leadership are making speeches in bunkers in front of green screens, The US keeps saying ‘its gonna be tonight!’ and they are wrong, much money has been expended in the US sending more war material to the area, and yet, they wait with fear dripping off their long teeth!

We are also watching Russia’s reaction after the major Ukrainian attack on Kursk.  Of course there is military reaction, but there will be more.

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation jointly with border authorities of Russian Federal Security Service have been destroying armed formations of the Ukrainian Armed Forces during the last night in Kursk region’s areas immediately adjacent to the Russian–Ukrainian border.

Air and missile strikes, artillery fire as well as units of the State Border Covering Force prevented the enemy from advancing deep into the territory of the Russian Federation in Kursk direction. The enemy’s reserves have been damaged close to Basovka, Zhuravka, Yunakovka, Belovody, Kiyanitsa, Korchakovka, Novaya Sech, Pavlovka, and Gorodishche (Sumy region).

The enemy’s losses during the past 24 hours amounted to up to 260 militants and 50 armoured vehicles, including seven tanks, eight armoured personnel carriers, three infantry fighting vehicles, 31 armoured fighting vehicles, with 12 Kozak vehicles, two Stryker vehicles, one counterobstacle vehicle, and six motor vehicles among them. Moreover, two Buk M1 SAM self-propelled launchers, one UR-77 mine clearing vehicle, and one electronic warfare station have been annihilated.

The operation to neutralise the AFU units is in progress.

This is who we are fighting against.  Those that for a century have attacked civilians, and in this way attempt to put pressure on states that are under the hammer for regime change and perpetual war.  This would include you and me.  Let’s not get drowsy and normalize this.  We have a fighting chance and this enemy is hanging on by its fingernails.

Hot again, cold again Turkey – but I have not seen them stop cheap oil deliveries to the entity.

⭕️Israel is using starvation and thirst as weapons in Gaza.

⭕️We will present evidence of the ethnic cleansing committed by Israel and its massacres in Gaza, and there is compelling evidence of Israel committing genocide against the Palestinians.

⭕️Israel has been committing massacres against Palestinians for 70 years.

Feverish preparations continue in the West Asia showdown between the western side and the civilizational-states’ side.  It is fascinating watching the reprise of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest for the Anglo-American Empire, but with total consequences this time!

💠@Strategika51:
⭕ “Love one another ❤️! With hydrogen bombs if necessary!”


⭕ In the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea 🇰🇵, a grand “love thy neighbor” ceremony was held to celebrate the transfer of over 250 Hwasongpo-11Ra (“화성포-11라”) operational-tactical mobile launchers. In Western classification, they are called Hwasong-11D. They are instruments of love whose technology is derived from the OTR-21 Tochka (SS-21) but with some serious modifications designed to convey the thrill of first love to all those who seek it, and there are many of them in today’s world marked by affective and emotional misery.
⭕ Kim Jong-Un: “a kiss, a fireball 180 m in diameter”, that’s fair enough…
⭕ In terms of firepower, these 250 mobile launchers offer four times that of the Soviet Tochka, as they are equipped with not one, but four missiles each. In other words, the total salvo is 1,000 tactical missiles…
⭕ It doesn’t matter how good the missile is, as long as there are thousands of them! The more they fall on the rock, the more the drops of water will break it in two…”

The world is populated by ingrates who will have to be brought to their senses. In 2124, the world will recognize the merits of Kim Jong-Un and North Korea and their tireless efforts to spread the purest love in a world of brutes…
⭕ Iran’s intense psychological warfare with Israel and its US ally has its ups and downs. It seems that the most important thing for Teheran is to maintain the pressure and the strategic vagueness. On the other side, they are more than prepared, but the more time passes, the more their nerves are frayed.
This proves that the Iranians have read Sun Tzu, while the Russians seem never to have read it, and if they have read it, never to have applied it.
⭕ The United States 🇺🇸 is finding it very difficult to predict when Iranian retaliation will take place and how far-reaching it will be.

This has become a source of growing concern in Washington.

It’s also worth noting that Israel’s defense coalition is this time unconvinced to act as a cover for Netanyahu’s provocations. Some of Washington’s allies have made it clear that it is impossible to maintain this state of affairs and put themselves at risk every time Netanyahu “does something stupid”…

Therefore, our position is clear, understandable — the troops are moving forward,” Shoigu told reporters.

“Russian aircraft are landing in Iran with military supplies, supposedly the “Murmansk-BN” which can jam and intercept enemy radio signals, GPS, communications, satellites, and other electronic systems up to 5,000 kilometers away..

In other words, if Iran wants to mount a major attack on Israel and do real damage, the combination of the Murmansk system disabling Israeli defenses and hypersonic warheads, making use of advanced Russian technology, could be devastating”

The grapevine is rife with the new defensive (and offensive) weaponry Russia transferred to Iran. This Murmansk-BN EW system can also be used offensively to fry the zionist grid, only about 2000km away! What else was given? GPS loss in Zion has been attributed in part to this.. nevertheless one feels the messianic, having seen close cooperation between the civilizational-states in Syria since 2013, if not earlier, anticipates this and has redundancy to deliver riposte. As during Trump’s aggression against Syria, whilst eating sumptuous chocolate cake at Mar-a-Lago with the Celestial Emperor, the US and Russian systems should be soon having a direct challenge against each other. More live testing..

Russia’s Secretary of National Security Council visited Tehran and met with Major General Bagheri, Iran’s Chief of Staff.

• Maj. General Bagheri emphasized that the US knows very well that the world has left the unipolar power and noted: “We will welcome the tripartite cooperation of Iran, Russia and China.”

• Sergey Shoigu said that Russia is ready for all-round cooperation with the Islamic Republic of Iran in regional affairs.

• Sergey Shoigu condemned the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, and added: “Undoubtedly, the masterminds of such crimes want to increase tension in the region.”

Mr Shoigu’s visit in itself increases tension, as nobody knows what Russia will be doing.

Bangladesh is a connector nation between China and India, and largely surrounded by India. It is an important nation in itself given a huge [anti-zionist] population and one of the planet’s leading textile industry. It was drawing closer to the BRICS and has an old friendship with a Russia currently building its first nuclear power plant. Detonating this nation is another attack on the new Silk Roads, spreads the belt of fire surrounding China from Myanmar to Bangladesh, creates problems for India and Chaos throughout South Asia, and on the main land bridge between India and China. It experienced today a coup d’état..

➡️Authorities have declared a national curfew and three days off starting Monday. The internet is being shut down, and social networks are being blocked in the country;

➡️Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina [seen fleeing the country in the first video] has resigned, Reuters reported.

➡️Former Chief of Army Staff Iqbal Karim stated that patriotic military personnel “should not take any responsibility for the current situation.” Speaking on behalf of former military personnel, he expressed deep concern over the “killings, torture, disappearances, and mass arrests taking place in Bangladesh.”
⭕ 🇧🇩 The Commander-in-Chief of the Bangladeshi Army stated that there will be an interim government in the country following the resignation of the Prime Minister.

This decision was made after a meeting between the military and representatives of all political parties.
⭕ 🇧🇩 The former Prime Minister of Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina, who resigned, has sought asylum in the United Kingdom. This was reported by The Hindu.

Her accompanying sister, Rehana, already holds British citizenship. Additionally, Sheikh Hasina’s niece, Tulip Siddiq, has been a Member of Parliament in the United Kingdom from the Labour Party since 2015.

⭕ 🇺🇸🇧🇩 The US took advantage of student protests in Bangladesh to overthrow the prime minister, says a retired air marshal

💬 “Students are a group that is easily influenced, and unfortunately, in this case, they fell under the influence of the West, demanding Hasina’s resignation,” M. Mateswaran told Sputnik.

🇨🇳 The expert reckoned that the US’s main motive was the prime minister’s close friendship with China.

💬 “The US does not shy away from destabilizing any country for its selfish interests. In this case, they supported radical Islamists. I believe the main factor was that the US considered Sheikh Hasina too close to China, while ignoring her friendship with India. […] The US achieved its goal by overthrowing her from power,” he explained.

Moreover, Bangladesh is just the latest victim of US international concerns.

🗣 “When it comes to their interests, they don’t care about any strategic partner or ally, as we have seen multiple times in history. They seek a situation where they can exploit regional instability for their strategic needs. Myanmar has already been destabilized, and now it’s Bangladesh’s turn,” Mateswaran concluded.
