Caucasus/Russia/Central Asia
One of Peter II's first decrees was replaced in the Russian military-historical archive
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] In the Russian military-historical archive, one of the first decrees of Emperor Peter II, signed by him in 1727, was replaced, the Telegram channel " 112 " reported, citing an informed source.

The substitution was discovered by the deputy director of the archive, Vasilisa Denisova. "The decree of Emperor Peter II to the Military Collegium on the removal of Famentsyn from the post of commandant of St. Petersburg and the appointment of Prince G. A. Urusov in his place. September 9, 1727" is a dummy, the material says.

It is not yet known who and when replaced the document. Law enforcement officers are conducting an investigation, the authors also noted.
Thank goodness they noticed. Here’s hoping the original is quickly found and is unharmed.
Peter II (grandson of Peter I, son of Tsarevich Alexei) was born in 1715 and ascended the throne in 1727. Three years later he died of smallpox.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, earlier in October, Moscow residents received an additional opportunity to search for information about their ancestors and compile a family tree - they can be found in the capital's Main Archive, which published documents from 1812 in the virtual museum "Moscow - with care for history."

Earlier, an archive was discovered in Moscow that could have belonged to the writer and journalist Vladimir Gilyarovsky. The materials were handed over to the city's cultural heritage department by one of Moscow's historians. He acquired the archives at a book stall. Among the artifacts found were letters addressed to Gilyarovsky, business cards, notes written in his hand, articles, essays, and reviews.

Democrats Warn It May Take At Least 4 Years To Count Ballots
[Bee] With the presidential election less than two weeks away, top Democrats warned the American people that it could be some time before we know who the winner is because it may take at least four years to count all of the ballots.

Though other, far less-developed countries have been able to count all ballots by hand in much shorter periods of time, Democrats stressed the very real likelihood that counting all the ballots in swing states would probably last until the 2028 presidential election.

"You just can't rush this type of thing," said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. "We're talking about a very complicated process of counting. It starts with 1, proceeds on to 2, then 3, and so on. These numbers get very large. When you run out of fingers and toes, it gets even more confusing. Plus, you have to account for the fact that we'll need to wait and find out how many votes we need to come up with. I'm afraid we won't know who the winner of the presidential election is until everyone starts voting to elect the following president."

Political experts agreed that the chances of knowing who won on election night were slim. "You can't expect counting to happen quickly like it's something people have been doing since they were babies," said one analyst. "Asking the most advanced country in the world to be able to count ballots in less than four years is unreasonable."

At publishing time, election officials in swing states assured the public that everyone would almost certainly know the results of the presidential race by the time George R.R. Martin publishes The Winds of Winter.

Holocaust survivor rips Kamala Harris for boosting Trump-Hitler comparisons, says ex-prez is ‘a mensch'
[NYP] A Holocaust survivor has denounced Vice President Kamala Harris in a Trump campaign video for endorsing claims that former President Donald Trump is a "fascist" akin to Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler.

"Adolf Hitler invaded Poland when I was 9 years old. He murdered my parents and most of my family," 94-year-old Jerry Wartski says in the clip exclusively obtained by The Post and set to be released Friday.

"I know more about Hitler than Kamala will ever know in a thousand lifetimes," adds Wartski, rolling up his shirtsleeves to reveal his Auschwitz prisoner number.

Holocaust survivor Jerry Wartski is denouncing Vice President Kamala Harris in a video set to be released Friday for claiming former President Donald Trump is like Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler.

"For her to accuse President Trump of being like Hitler is the worst thing I ever heard in my 75 years living in the United States," he goes on, adding that Harris "owes my parents and everybody else who was murdered by Hitler an apology for repeating this lie."

He is cutting pro-Trump ads even though he voted for impeachment. Watching television is currently at assault levels.

Question: Wasn't it mainly DEMOCRATS who sponsored and attended 1939 Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden.

Plus didn't (R) NYC Mayor LaGuardia dispatch 1,700 police to monitor and enforce keeping that rally peaceful?

BTW: It seems the names and groups that Sponsored the NAZI Rally suddenly are missing using a Google search.

Dipsy Doodle Arizona Teen Plotted Massacre at Phoenix Pride Parade, to Take Over Country
Responding to a story we had here two days ago.
[PJMEDIA] A 17-year-old in Peoria, Ariz., has been arrested over his plans to load up a drone with explosives and send it into the Phoenix Pride parade. He was hoping to "bomb 2024 Pride Parade and take over USA" and said that he had ordered bomb-making equipment. He was, however, discovered and stopped before he could carry out his attack. Still, you should have heard about a terror plot of this magnitude, yet the establishment media is maintaining near-radio silence about it.

Now, foiled attacks always get less attention than ones that are successful, and that’s why you likely haven’t heard about this particular plot, but there is another reason as well: the perpetrator was not a "white supremacist" gun nut who could be easily shoehorned into the left’s standard narrative about supposed "right-wing" violence.

Instead, Marvin Aneer Jalo was an Islamic jihadist, coming at a time when the left’s alliance with Islamic groups is fraught with tension over the Biden-Harris regime’s failure to betray Israel as thoroughly as Moslem leaders have been demanding they do, as well as over social issues, with many Moslems furious over the left’s unshakeable determination to embrace and normalize every fantasy, delusion and perversion that comes down the pike. So this was just the worst time for a Moslem to plot to blow up a Pride Parade, and that’s why you’re likely to hear about this plot only here.

AZFamily reported Wednesday that Jalo was arrested last Friday, the first day of the LGBTQEIEIO Pride Parade in Phoenix. Due to the gravity of his plans, he is "being charged as an adult with terrorism and conspiracy to commit terrorism, both class 2 felonies." It seems that the precocious young fellow "started communicating in internet chat rooms in 2023 with people he described as holy warriors who were recruiting him."

The "extremists" in question were jihadis from the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS), and Jalo was more than willing to be recruited. He "reportedly posted that they could ’bomb 2024 Pride Parade and take over USA.’" The "take over USA" part was more than a little grandiose, but they certainly could have carried out the plot to bomb the Pride Parade. Jalo also "later said he was having supplies shipped to him to make explosives."

On his phone, the aspiring jihad terrorist had "numerous photos of firearms and an instructional video depicting an ISIS fighter making the explosive Triacetone Triperoxide (TATP)." That’s another reason why you won’t hear much, if anything, about this plot. Up until Tim Walz
...Kamala's smarmy-looking running mate, governor of Minnesota, who decided to retired rather than to deploy with his National Guard unit, then claimed to have been in Iraq and Afghanistan. One man's socialism is another man's neighborliness....
and Adam Kinzinger discovered their love for guns, however inept they are at handling them, the left’s sole interest in firearms involved strategizing about how to circumvent the Second Amendment and take them away from law-abiding civilians. If Jalo hadn’t been a jihadi, leftist media organs would have given this story massive attention as yet another indication that Americans can’t be trusted with weapons.

But Islamic jihadists who use firearms, or just save photos of them for future reference, don’t qualify to become part of the left’s exhibit on how bad guns really are. Moslem leaders are enraged at Kamala Harris
who got her start in politix between former Oakland mayor Willie Brown's' knees
for the Biden-Harris regime’s continued claims to support Israel; though the regime has betrayed Israel left and right, this never seems to placate them. The leftist establishment doesn’t dare risk enraging Moslem voters further by giving any notice to a jihad plot, much less to one against a Pride Parade.

Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs (D-Of Course), meanwhile, was a parade grand marshal and issued this pro forma statement: "I’m shocked and horrified at the alleged plot to attack innocent Arizonans and members of the LGBTQ community who attended the Phoenix Pride festival, and I’m grateful for the swift actions taken by law enforcement to prevent a potential tragedy. Arizonans must come together to reject hate wherever we find it. I was proud to serve as Grand Marshall of the Phoenix Pride parade this year, and I’ll continue to stand with the LGBTQ community in the face of bigotry and violent mostly peaceful extremism."

#6  don't know about abortion drugs sounds like a wild claim set to discredit the legit criticism of these dangerous products.

They do, however, contain DNA contamination at far higher levels than regulatory agencies even permitted for previous gene therapy drugs - and this is made more dangerous by the lipid nanoparticles which naturally envelop this just like they do the target RNA, meaning it goes directly into your cells instead of being destroyed outside.

That's why an Australian council recently voted to send warning letters to all its medical centres and to the government calling for them to be suspended

Once inside the cell, the DNA contamination can cause cancer.

I'm Filing a Copyright on this Conspiracy Theory
[Legal Insurrection]
The Intelsat 33e satellite, which was launched in 2016 and provides communications across Europe, Asia and Africa, experienced "an anomaly" on Saturday, Intelsat said in a news release. Attempts were made to work with Boeing and repair the satellite, but on Monday, the U.S. Space Force confirmed that the satellite had exploded.
And ROSCOSMOS was right on top of the story
Russia’s space agency, Roscosmos, said it had recorded "more than 80 fragments" of the destroyed satellite. Analysis of the pieces’ trajectory determined that the destruction of the satellite was "instantaneous and high-energy," Roscosmos said.

But does anyone remember:

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Potential Front: Why Syria Isn't Going to War with Israel
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
by Dmitry Polyakov
For years Israel has been hunting Iranian arms transshipped via in Syria for Hezbollah, the Syrian Arab Army being completely unable to stop them, even with Russian anti-aircraft equipment. No point in Syria trying to more directly fight an unwinnable battle
[REGNUM] A year later, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is expanding its borders.

In early October 2024, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched a ground operation in southern Lebanon. Even though the advance in some areas was only a few hundred meters, the operation caused enormous damage to the Land of the Cedars.

Moreover, it demonstrated Israel's unwillingness to stop hostilities, which means the risk of the current conflict spreading to other territories is quite high.

ANOTHER POTENTIAL FRONT COULD BE SYRIA (SAR).
Since last autumn, the expert community and the media have been talking about the possibility of military actions spreading to its territory. However, the country's authorities are exercising maximum caution and are not escalating.

Although Syria is a member of the Iranian "Axis of Resistance" project, Damascus is trying in every way not to get involved in the current conflict. The army is not involved in combat operations, and support for the Palestinian and Lebanese "resistances" is mostly declarative.

Moreover, unlike the Lebanese Hezbollah, which began striking Israeli targets as early as October 8, 2023, the pro-Iranian militias located in the SAR practically do not strike the territory of the Jewish state, and most of their attacks are concentrated on American military bases.

The chosen political course of the Syrian government has become the reason for various rumors.

Thus, the Israeli publication Be-hadrei Haredim published an article about how Syrian President Bashar al-Assad allegedly sent a message to Iran and Hezbollah. It says that Syria does not want to be drawn into the war in Lebanon. This information immediately became the reason for various rumors about Damascus distancing itself from Tehran.

IS SYRIA DISTANCING ITSELF FROM IRAN?
First of all, the information presented in the pages of the ultra-Orthodox Hasidic newspaper should be divided into two. The authors are passing off wishful thinking as reality.

Today, there is no talk of Syria distancing itself from Iran, nor is there any reduction in the Islamic Republic’s influence within the country.

Over the 13 years of the internal Syrian armed conflict, Tehran has been able to deeply penetrate many spheres of life in the SAR.

In addition to the military presence that is most often discussed, Iran has seriously entrenched itself in the economy. Key economic facilities of the state have come under its control. Iranian goods are present on the shelves of almost all Syrian stores.

In addition, Tehran has formed a network of various cultural and social structures working with the local population and creating a layer of Iranian-oriented citizens.

Moreover, Syria has a direct dependence on Iran in the energy sector.

The SAR has been experiencing an energy crisis for several years now, due to a fuel shortage. The reason is that more than 80% of Syrian oil is produced in the Autonomous Administration of Northern and Eastern Syria (AASVS), which is controlled by the Kurdish authorities. After the United States imposed a de facto embargo on Damascus on exports from the Euphrates region, there is an acute shortage of fuel in areas under government control.

Under current conditions, Syria is dependent on external energy supplies, most of which are provided with the help of Iran.

It is noteworthy that the course chosen by the Syrian authorities in the current conflict seems to suit Tehran.

A few days after the start of Israel's ground operation in southern Lebanon, the Iranian Foreign Minister visited Damascus. In his statement, Abbas Araghchi deliberately did not mention Syria among the parties to the conflict, mentioning only the Palestinian and Lebanese "resistance". The position presented is consistent with the words of the late Hassan Nasrallah.

The former Hezbollah Secretary General said that Syria is unable and unwilling to participate in military operations. However, its role is limited to indirect support, which involves ensuring the transit of cargo for the Lebanese party through its territory.

Thus, the members of the "Axis of Resistance" understand the real capabilities of Damascus and do not demand that it enter the conflict. Therefore, it is hardly possible to say that Syria has distanced itself from Iran. Most likely, its position was coordinated with a key ally.

SYRIA'S POSITION
Hassan Nasrallah accurately explained the political course chosen by Damascus.

After 13 years of its own armed conflict, the Syrian economy is unable to withstand intensive military operations, and therefore the SAR leadership does not want to participate in them. Today, the country already has a lot of unresolved problems, and the key one is the severe socio-economic crisis.

The SAR army is exhausted and does not have the ability to fight on its neighbor's territory as during the First Lebanon War.

Moreover, the escalating conflict in the Land of the Cedars has already caused great damage to the Syrian economy.

Hundreds of thousands of refugees have moved to the SAR. According to the UN, as of October 20, their number exceeded 420 thousand people. Moreover, more than half are Syrians who fled to Lebanon several years earlier, escaping from the civil war.

In addition, existing trade relations were disrupted.

Beirut is a major hub for Damascus's imports. But today, cross-border trade has slowed significantly after Israel destroyed several border crossings.

The disruption of supply chains has caused prices to rise for many categories of goods, but most of all for fuel. A liter of gasoline is sold at 25,000 lira (about $1.50). At the same time, the jump in fuel prices has had an indirect impact on the cost of other essential goods.

Given the overall situation in Syria, the government's reluctance to get involved in a confrontation with Israel is understandable.

Damascus is interested in survival, and participation in the conflict will completely destroy the existing fragile peace. Meanwhile, Assad can present his course as agreement with the proposal of the Arab countries. Earlier, the media reported that the UAE asked the SAR to remain neutral and refrain from escalation.

The Gulf monarchies have long sought to reduce Iran's influence in Syria and synchronize its foreign policy in accordance with their course. At the current stage, the Arabian states advocate non-intervention in the conflict and its de-escalation.

Given the ability of the Syrian authorities to balance between several centers of power, it is quite likely that Damascus will try to turn the current situation to its advantage and use it to speed up the process of normalization with Arab countries.
