calumny by Scott Ritter

https://scottritter.substack.com/p/calumny Yves Smith comments "Calumny Scott Ritter. Micael T: “A funny retort from Scott to Doctorow.” Moi: Even though Ritter can be hot-headed and hyperbolic, he regularly provides useful detail not presented elsewhere. By contrast, I found Doctorow useful only when providing recaps of discussions on the big name Russian political TV shows on his website, and never a single thing he said on YouTube."

Nobel prize in Chemistry 2025

Creating New 'Rooms For Chemistry': The Nobel Committee highlighted that MOFs [metal-organic frameworks] are like molecular architectures with spacious rooms, allowing gases and chemicals to move freely through their structures. This property makes them highly versatile for practical use: capturing carbon dioxide to combat climate change, storing toxic gases safely, or even extracting water from arid desert air. By developing these frameworks, the laureates have provided entirely new tools to address some of humanity’s most pressing scientific and environmental challenges. From https://www.thedailyjagran.com/world/2025-nobel-prize-in-chemistry-awarded-to-susumu-kitagawa-richard-robson-and-omar-m-yaghi-10272256 Nobel for physiology and medicine https://news.ki.se/the-2025-nobel-prize-in-physiology-or-medicine-to-mary-e-brunkow-fred-ramsdell-and-shimon-sakaguchi Shimon Sakaguchi was swimming against the tide in 1995, when he made the first key discovery. At the time, many researchers were convinced that immune tolerance only developed due to potentially harmful immune cells being eliminated in the thymus, through a process called central tolerance. Sakaguchi showed that the immune system is more complex and discovered a previously unknown class of immune cells, which protect the body from autoimmune diseases. Monitoring other immune cells Mary Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell made the other key discovery in 2001, when they presented the explanation for why a specific mouse strain was particularly vulnerable to autoimmune diseases. They had discovered that the mice have a mutation in a gene that they named Foxp3. They also showed that mutations in the human equivalent of this gene cause a serious autoimmune disease, IPEX. Two years after this, Shimon Sakaguchi was able to link these discoveries. He proved that the Foxp3 gene governs the development of the cells he identified in 1995. These cells, now known as regulatory T cells, monitor other immune cells and ensure that our immune system tolerates our own tissues.

China Super Monetary Highway

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZC-U2DvSgEw "..He also explains that the geopolitical and economic landscape is shifting dramatically as China revolutionizes global finance with the China Super Monetary Highway. “The Chinese have taken it up… they now call it the Renminbi Settlement System. And they have launched it. There are already 11 Asian states on it and five Middle Eastern states using it,” Crooke says. And big war coming: "Now you don't hear much and I'll tell you why. Because we follow 25:15 the resistance, you know, channels as much as we follow the mainstream things. 25:22 Everything was gone dark. Everyone is preparing. Everyone is 25:27 preparing for the big war. And so no telephones, no communications, no 25:34 speeches, no one else saying what we're going to do. No saying what's going to happen next. So I don't know what is 25:41 going to happen next. But I think it's going to be a very dangerous time uh 25:46 that is coming up. Um because for um Netanyahu, he's been preaching 25 years 25:54 about the need to break Iran and to install uh sympathetic government. 26:01 I mean, Alistister, that's absolutely terrifying. And unfortunately, you just made me think of um conversations I've 26:09 had with my sources in Italy and France, particularly in in hospitals in the 26:14 medical field where they are preparing hospitals are preparing for war. Are you 26:21 hearing that as well? Yeah. Yes. I in Britain they've um just 26:27 erected a sort of million pound tented hospital in Hyde Park in France by 26:33 Croners also. Now, I'm not sure whether they really expect a war this quickly or 26:39 are they doing this in order to build up fear because it's usually tied to Russia."

Karl Sanchez on UN Genocide resolution

https://karlof1.substack.com/p/sputnik-is-only-english-language "the UN has the legal framework to intervene using the 2005 ‘Responsibility to Protect’ doctrine" And "In other words, China’s been just as complicit as the Outlaw US Empire in supporting the Genocide. The same site reports that “Israel Imports from Russia was US$2.37 Billion during 2024,” and the chart presented shows Russian exports rose dramatically beginning in 2023. Readers will know I’ve been soft on Russian relations with the Zionists because of Russia’s constitutional issues, but the international legal situation has now changed and Russia like China and all other nations must cease trading with the Genocidalists."
