Putin ‘cannot remain in power’ – Biden

  © Getty Images / Omar Marques Putin ‘cannot remain in power’ – Biden US president demands regime change for Russia US President Joe Biden has called for Russian President Vladimir Putin to be deposed. He made a direct appeal to the Russian people during a speech in Warsaw, where he had met for talks with high-ranking Ukrainian officials on Saturday. “For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power,” Biden declared at the end of an emotionally overwrought speech in the Polish capital’s Royal Castle. While he has previously denounced Putin as a “war criminal” and a “dictator,” and lobbed at him all manner of other geopolitical insults, this was his first recorded demand that the president be removed from office. Biden also spoke directly to “the Russian people,” insisting that despite weeks of punishing sanctions and forcing hundreds of American and European-based companies to pull out of the country, “you, the Russian people, are not our enemy.” He then attempted to liken Ukrainia...

The location of Israel from the Russia-NATO war in Ukraine.--- Hatem Babiker Awad Al-Karim

  The location of Israel from the Russia-NATO war in Ukraine.  Hatem Babiker Awad Al-Karim  The war in Ukraine expresses the strategic positions of the major powers in world politics to change the balance of power on global and European security issues by making radical breakthroughs in the model of the world order that was formed after the year 1991 AD, the collapse of the Soviet Union, the disintegration of the Warsaw Pact and the emergence of the unipolarity of the United States of America, which simplifies security in Europe from During the NATO alliance, which the eastern European countries rushed to join, which put Russia in front of geopolitical options, this is why it has been seeking to make breakthroughs, starting with the crisis with Syria and the conflict in Crimea in 2014 AD, which paved the way for the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 AD. The globalized system has fallen, the international trade system has been shaken, the surreal anti-Russian European un...

(Israel Antiquities Authority) The Precursors of the Ark Prof.Yigal Levin At the battle against the Philistines at Michmas, Saul asks Ahiah the priest to bring forward the ark, so that he can consult YHWH. He is not referring to the ark of Shiloh, which was safeguarded in Kiryat-yearim at the time; in the early monarchic period, each worship site had its own priestly family with its own ark. The Ark from Shiloh to Kiryat-yearim In the opening stories of the book of Samuel, the ark is in the temple in Shiloh (1 Sam 3:3). When the Philistines defeat Israel in battle, the Israelites have the priests of Shiloh bring the ark to the Israelite camp, so that YHWH will assist them with the next battle ...

Israel’s balancing act in Ukraine is likely to backfire ----------Ramzy Baroud

 Israel’s balancing act in Ukraine is likely to backfire by aletho By Ramzy Baroud | MEMO | March 24, 2022 Israel's balancing act in the Russia-Ukraine war is likely to falter soon, simply because the resulting NATO-Russia conflict is expected to last for years, not weeks or months. Eventually, Israel would have to make a choice. Alas, whatever that choice may be, Israel will stand to lose. From the first day of the war, Israel somehow became involved. Top Israeli officials, including the country's Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, began calling their Ukrainian and Russian counterparts. Initially, some in the media surmised that Israel is concerned because of the large Jewish populations in both Ukraine and Russia. However, the headlines quickly moved on, with terms such as 'Israeli oligarchs', 'Jewish oligarchs', and other combinations of Israel-friendly oligarchs dominating the news. Business interests quickly began replacing the supposed concern over the safety...

Does Nato want peace in Ukraine? It doesn’t sound like it ----------- Kathy Gyngell

  Does Nato want peace in Ukraine? It doesn’t sound like it by aletho By Kathy Gyngell | TCW Defending Freedom | March 22, 2022 Is there a path to peace in Ukraine?  That’s the title of an article published on The American Conservative website two weeks ago that has only just crossed my desk. Douglas MacGregor, a retired US Army colonel, a senior fellow with The American Conservative, and former adviser to the Secretary of Defense in the Trump administration, asked the question. In the two since then, matters in Ukraine have become even more desperate and the need for a path to peace ever more urgent. Casualties are in the thousands, while millions have fled the country seeking refuge abroad. At the time of writing, the deadline given by Russia’s Ministry of Defence for the embattled city of Mariupol to surrender has been rejected, with Ukraine’s deputy prime minister Iryna Vereshchuk saying there can be ‘no question’ of capitulation. However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zel...
