Real analysis of what's going on in the world

@PhDniX Also, Luxenberg says it has been a historical-linguistic mistake to assume that Arabic is older than Aramaic (a fix for contradictions in development of Arabic language), and that this is the reason much of his theories have been misunderstood. Any thoughts on that? Many thanks

@PhDniX Hey Marijn, could you explain in what way Luxenberg is so wrong? It seems like much of the direction of his theories are kinda right, but many of his building blocks to get there wrong? I noticed you don't mention Luxenberg at all in your book - not even to say where he is wrong?

Of course, I would be the first to point out that the quran is chock full of Aramaic religious vocabulary. But hey, why read something, if you can just assume bad faith motives right?

'It's painful, it's difficult, it's meant to coerce ... but it's not about us, it's about the victims' right to justice.' In an exclusive interview with Analyst News, the International Criminal Court's Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan details the threats and sanctions against him, his family and the court for his arrest warrants against Israeli leaders for war crimes.

@richimedhurst Please make a sequel with updates from the world (and perhaps addressing valid criticisms) since its release. Loved this video!

2 months later, this film is still the most compelling explanation of the Iran war. It links it to Greenland, Gaza, Syria, Venezuela, Russia, China. Once you understand the US plan to control global oil and gas you can never unsee it. youtu.be/0nt1CgQsgpI

Israeli firm BlackCore deployed sophisticated cyber operations to sabotage left wing candidates in France —— A sophisticated cyber espionage and defamation campaign orchestrated by the Israeli firm BlackCore targeting left-wing, pro-Palestinian candidates from La France Insoumise (LFI) has sent shockwaves through the French political establishment. According to Middle East Eye, the covert operations, which struck during the March municipal elections in Marseille, Toulouse, and Roubaix, utilized automated fake accounts, localized smear advertisements, and highly sensitive data leaks, including the personal tax information and passwords of LFI MP François Piquemal. Victims and security analysts have condemned the operation as an unprecedented assault on French democratic sovereignty, designed specifically to penalize LFI candidates for their vocal opposition to Israel's genocide in Gaza. The digital footprints of the interference lead back to technology firms based in Tel Aviv, raising critical questions about foreign state involvement. In Toulouse, where Piquemal narrowly lost his mayoral bid to right-wing incumbent Jean-Luc Moudenc, the cyber onslaught coincided with an intense domestic pushback from local branches of the pro-Israel lobbying group Elnet and the Representative Council of French Jewish Institutions (Crif). Despite an investigation by France's digital interference watchdog, Viginum, allegations have surfaced that the French state has attempted to redact and shelve the findings to avoid a major diplomatic rupture with Tel Aviv, while Paris prosecutors have opened an independent criminal probe into organized election destabilization. The high-tech sabotage is widely viewed by intelligence experts as a dangerous "dress rehearsal" for deep-seated interference ahead of France's 2027 presidential election. Security analysts note that while French intelligence historically braced for Russian disinformation, the threat from Israel has caught the state off guard. As right-wing forces like Jordan Bardella’s National Rally pivot toward pro-Israel stances to gain international backing, LFI officials warn that the lack of robust independent monitoring bodies leaves France's upcoming national ballots highly vulnerable to sophisticated foreign manipulation.

@robbertleusink @talithamuusse @De_NieuweWereld Welk stuk?

@Cebes_ @talithamuusse @De_NieuweWereld Het laatste stuk bevestigd mijn hele punt 🤣

Bijzonder dat dit onderwerp eigenlijk nog zo veel stof doet opwaaien. Nederlanderschap gaat niet over huidskleur, maar over cultuur. Bekijk het hele gesprek op: youtu.be/UUVdeYUrJbM?is… @De_NieuweWereld

@robbertleusink @talithamuusse @De_NieuweWereld Lukt niet om de tekst te delen, als afbeeldingen. Vond dit een goed gebalanceerd antwoord. Zie in elk geval het gearceerde. Studies verwarren vaak genetische invloed op persoonlijkheid met genetische invloed op culturele aanpassing. Probeerde dat hier te scheiden:

@l43150 @whiteTony99 You mean China has 'free market', West not. West has 'capitalism', China not (or less). Don't confuse free market with capitalism. They are in practice antithetical. Capitalism breeds monopolies.

@whiteTony99 China might be one of the only actual capitalist countries in the world as evidenced by not just this example. What operates in most places is not capitalism, but croney, mafia monopoly economic systems that punish or eliminate competition.

西方对中国最愤怒是中国把他们躺赚了几十年的暴利生意，一个个砸成了普通人都买得起的日用品。 这种愤怒已经刻进了很多西方人的骨子里，他们不是不理解，而是不愿意理解，不愿意接受自己再也不能躺着剥削全世界的事实。 二十年前，中国修地铁要用盾构机，全部从德国进口。一台盾构机德国卖3.5亿人民币，一分钱都不能少。买的时候还要签霸王条款，机器坏了只能找德国工程师来修。 德国工程师来中国一天的工资是3000欧元，换算成人民币当时是3万多。他们坐飞机必须坐头等舱，住必须是五星级酒店的总统套房。 维修的时候中国人不能在旁边看，必须全部离场，修完了直接开账单，换一个小小的密封圈就要10万人民币。 有时候机器出个小故障，要等德国工程师三个月才能来，整个工地几百人就只能闲着干等，每天损失几百万。 没有人觉得这有什么不对。全世界都默认，高科技就应该卖这么贵，德国人掌握了技术，他们就有资格赚这个钱。甚至放言给中国图纸也造不出盾构机。 但到2008年，中国第一台拥有自主知识产权的盾构机下线。当时德国人根本不在乎，他们觉得中国人造出来的肯定是垃圾，用不了几天就会坏。 结果中国盾构机不仅能用，而且价格直接开到了5000万一台。后来随着技术不断成熟，产量不断提高，现在一台国产盾构机只要2000多万人民币，价格只有原来德国的十七分之一。 德国盾构机的垄断神话一夜之间破灭了。原来全世界只有德国、日本、美国少数几个国家能造盾构机，他们联合起来维持高价，想卖多少钱就卖多少钱。 现在中国加入了，他们的价格体系彻底崩溃了。现在德国盾构机想卖出去，价格也只能降到和中国差不多的水平，再也不能躺着赚暴利了。 而这样的事在各个领域都不断的上演，套用足球解说的一句话，留给西方垄断的时间不多了。

@ForgottenV1918 You left out an important bit, which the title suggested: "'The Jewish Fight Against' highlights the other side: Jewish reformers, women's groups (e.g., Ezras Noshim), rabbis, communal leaders, and activists who worked against the traffickers." x.com/i/grok/share/3…

This is the book that is impossible to find, the one you will never hear about in school, the suppressed history they prefer stays buried: Edward J. Bristow’s Prostitution and Prejudice: The Jewish Fight Against White Slavery, 1870–1939. It is the meticulously documented, stomach-churning exposé of how Jewish criminal syndicates especially the infamous Zwi Migdal built a vast international empire of sexual slavery that preyed on poor, desperate young women and teenage girls from Eastern Europe. The girls (and young women) in Bristow’s Prostitution and Prejudice were overwhelmingly teenagers and very young women typically between 12-15 years old…oldest being 22 years old. The “Meat Markets” Naked Auctions Upon Arrival Newly arrived girls were ordered to strip completely naked in places like the Hotel Palestina or Café Parisienne in Buenos Aires. They were then paraded, inspected, groped, and auctioned off like livestock to pimps and brothel owners. This “meat market” turned human beings into commodities right after the hellish voyage. The largest brothels housed 60–80 women each, with the Zwi Migdal ultimately controlling around 2,000 such hellholes and roughly 4,000 women in Argentina alone at its peak. Rape and “Breaking In” Starting on the Ships The abuse often began the moment the girls were at sea. Many were raped repeatedly during the transatlantic crossing by the very men who had lured them (or their accomplices). Young virgins were especially targeted“broken in” through repeated rape, beatings, and starvation to destroy any will to resist before they even reached South America. Fake Marriages and Total Betrayal by Their Own People Pimps used the “shtille chupah” a secret religious wedding ceremony with no legal validity to trick girls into thinking they were married and heading to a better life. Once in Argentina, the “husband” revealed himself as a pimp, abandoned the legal protections of marriage, and sold or forced the woman into prostitution. The criminals even maintained their own synagogue and burial society while running this rape empire. Brothel Slavery: Dozens of Men a Night, Beatings, and Perpetual Debt Inside the brothels (many on Junín Street in the Jewish quarter), women were locked in and forced to service 20–60+ clients per day/night. Refusal, low earnings, or resistance meant savage beatings, heavy fines, or transfer to even worse rural whorehouses. They lived in crushing debt bondage owing inflated sums for the voyage, clothes, room, and “protection” that could never be repaid. Every transaction was logged like a business. Prostitutes who failed to please clients were routinely beaten, starved, or punished. Physical and Psychological Destruction Bodies were ravaged by rampant venereal diseases (syphilis and gonorrhea causing disfigurement, madness, infertility, and death). Forced abortions, exhaustion, and injuries from violent clients were common. Psychologically, the control was total: isolation from family, constant threats of violence against relatives back home, surveillance, and brainwashing to prevent escape or testimony. Many died by suicide or were hunted down and beaten if they tried to flee. The International Scope and Sales to Harems The trade wasn’t limited to Buenos Aires. Girls were trafficked to Brazil, New York, South Africa, India, Constantinople (where Jews reportedly ran most brothels at one point), and even sold into harems in the Middle East and Africa. The 1892 L’viv (Lwów) trial in Galicia prosecuted Jewish traffickers(men and women)for systematically exporting the girls(estimates up to thousands annually) These are not fictional exaggerations. Bristow’s book compiles them from primary sources: police files, trial transcripts (including Raquel Liberman’s), contemporary reports, organizational records, and survivor testimonies. The scale tens of thousands of young girls and teenagers enslaved by a Jewish criminal syndicate that operated for decades.

It always astonishes me how there is virtually ZERO public debate - or even public awareness - in Europe about the decisions that will most shape ordinary people's lives. These days, the EU is drafting a new anti-China legal framework where - quite literally - the more affordable and competitive Chinese products are, the more illegal they'd become. You'd think EU citizens would want to be informed about such things - as it couldn't be more consequential for their prosperity. Yet I bet virtually no EU citizen is even aware of it, beyond a vague sense that there is some sort of trade dispute going on. So what's going on exactly? It all centers around a new legal instrument the EU is drafting called the "overcapacity instrument" (euobserver.com/218003/china-t…). First of all, the very notion of "overcapacity" is pretty ridiculous to begin with, especially the way it's being defined by the EU, as it basically means being competitive enough to export. By this definition of "overcapacity," pretty much every European industry that's ever run a trade surplus - German cars, French wine, Italian fashion - has been guilty of "overcapacity." I'm not even exaggerating: if you read this study by the EU Parliament on "Industrial overcapacities, with a focus on China" (europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes…), they define "overcapacity" as building more capacity than your domestic market can absorb. So the moment you build capacity to export abroad, you're in "overcapacity." Utterly ridiculous. And what this "overcapacity instrument" is about is creating a permanent legal mechanism for the EU to block Chinese competition across whole sectors of the economy, if they happen to be in "overcapacity." In effect, this means that if China is competitive globally in a given sector in such a way that it exports a lot, that's proof of overcapacity, and legally it'd mean that the entire sector can be restricted from the EU market. Which means it really, factually, is a legal framework where the more affordable and competitive your products are, the more illegal they become. Which is a CRAZY economic concept! 🤦‍♂️ Please note that it's different from the anti-subsidy legal instrument, which the EU has already put in place in 2023 (the "Foreign Subsidies Regulation": competition-policy.ec.europa.eu/foreign-subsid…). This "overcapacity instrument" would be above and beyond this: it wouldn't even matter if a particular sector was subsidized by the Chinese government or not, the mere fact of its competitiveness in exports would be grounds for restrictions in the EU. It doesn't take a genius to understand how badly this could impact everyday people: this is European consumers being forced to pay more for worse products by law, so that uncompetitive European firms don't have to improve. Politicians frame it as avoiding a "China shock 2.0" but really this is choosing an even steeper self-inflicted decline than is already the case, where EU citizens would subsidize mediocre EU companies that would have even less pressure to catch up. It's a hidden tax: subsidies for uncompetitive firms paid by consumers instead of governments, which in turn makes them less incentivized to become competitive. The first "China shock" did de-industrialize Europe somewhat, but at least it made things cheaper for European consumers. If this becomes Europe's response to a second "China shock" not only it'd make everything more expensive but it'd do nothing for EU industry: you don't become competitive by banning the competition... Look at China itself: the way it industrialized was NOT by banning Western firms but on the contrary by welcoming them strategically and learning from them. You learn to compete by... competing, duh! What I find most shocking in all of this isn't even the policy itself - you can make arguments for and against protectionism, and reasonable people can disagree. What's shocking is that virtually no European media outlet is explaining any of this to the public. This is unarguably one of the single most consequential economic decisions the EU will make this decade, affecting the price of everything, and it's being drafted in near-total silence. No newspaper is running the headline "EU plans to make Chinese goods illegal if they're too affordable" - even though that's essentially what's happening. But that's what you call a "democracy" with "freedom of expression" these days apparently...
