Trump's Foreign Policy advisor and pundit for rent @WalidPhares is in business with Khalifa Haftar's son. Okba Khalifa Hifter is the guy who sued the head of the Immigration, Jeff Sessions, Head of Homeland Security and who knows who else in 2017. courtlistener.com/docket/1337008…
But wait it gets better. The Las Vegas company TransGlobal Commerce and Construction is a threesome with Phares, Haftar Jr and Neil Livingstone... "the most interesting man in the world" who offered to rescue Gaddafi for $10 million. Cash, I assume. nytimes.com/2011/11/18/wor…
Haftar's other kids are a hoot too. Saddam got busted robbing a bank in Libya in 2011, got shot and then allegedly had the witnesses head cut off. Saddam is a fasttrack Colonel (2 weeks training in Jordan) and has swapped the "Haftar" moniker for "Omer" ha-reporter.blogspot.com/2017/02/the-my…
Khaled has his own 106 Brigade and was supposed to sit tight in Gharyan but got excited and got bunged up. As soon as 106 hit Checkpoint 27 they realized Khaled had been had by militias who previously promised to roll over. He did make lots of cool videos.
Now back to Neil Livingstone the man with his own "private CIA" Who knew that in 2007 a story by Ken Silverstein and 2010 by Jeff Stein pop Dmitry Firtash like a zit, now waiting extradition back to the US on corruption charges harpers.org/blog/2007/05/w… and voices.washingtonpost.com/spy-talk/2010/…
Dmitry Firtash was Paul Manafort's business partner and a client of Neil Livingstone's Global Options. But that's old news today Haftar is repped by Stephen Payne and Brian Ettinger of Linden Government Solution and the irrepressible Ari Ben Menashe. middleeasteye.net/news/haftar-he…
Ari Ben Menashe like Neil Livingstone are linked to the Iran Contra gig and you could not invent the Rent A Janjaweed idea Ben Menashe is running between Haftar and Hemeti. My local friends in Darfur say even their moms are bugging them to fight for dough. middleeasteye.net/news/haftar-he…
Finally since now its like everyone is taking crazy pills, this in-depth report on Libya came out and the pie charts, maps and soothing colors almost makes the war in Libya sound normal. Dig in. smallarmssurvey.org/fileadmin/docs…

The lastest destruction of Gaza was sparked by an murderous event that was known by Israeli intelligence and the IDF long before Oct 7. Why? Because a HAMAS operative showed the plan to them. haaretz.com/israel-news/20…
Despite the hype, there are numerous examples of intelligence failures. Scholarly reviews argue that these "failures" were systemic and historic. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
The Oct 7 attack was known more than a year in advance. This should not be dismissed. .nytimes.com/2023/11/30/wor…

So one thing is true in Elon's Xitty world. Some of the most disgusting, overtly racist, antisemetic, hate, violent, nazi or bot content is cool. These are the X rules. So it's true that @elonmusk is cultivating or enabling a bot farm, many of them foriegn players.

When you see an foreign operated bot pushing stuff, you wonder why Elon protects it. "According to CHEQ, a whopping 75.85 percent of traffic from X to its advertising clients' websites during the weekend of the Super Bowl was fake" mashable.com/article/x-twit…
So the Bot in question had insulting cartoons and memes about blacks, jews, etc and was almost like a pick and pack for hillbillies and MAGA trolls. Assumnig that retweeting would not get them banned. Designed to stir the bot pot on any left/right Xitter fight.

With all this courtroom talk about Bunnies, pay offs, cheating, sleazy lawyers and abortion....is this an awkward time to bring this up? nymag.com/intelligencer/…
"Broidy entered into the NDA to silence Bechard as a favor to Trump. Trump, according to this theory, repaid Broidy by agreeing to at least two Oval Office meetings, at which Broidy lobbied for the interests of the United Arab Emirates against the UAE’s Gulf state rival Qatar."
"Bechard’s former lawyer, Keith Davidson (who also represented Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, and who has been fired by all three women because they independently concluded that he was colluding with Trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen"

Sound familiar?

The protesters clamoring for "Divestment" is the D in BDS. Adam Entous, a journalist with sterling credentials introduced us to this program in 2017. A foriegn operation of concern to the FBI. You are seeing a lot of the same activity inside the US now. newyorker.com/news/news-desk…

"Psy-Group closed in February 2018, just as Mueller’s team began questioning employees, according to the report.". They deleted their servers and vanished. Or did they? calcalistech.com/ctech/articles…

"Psy-Group’s CEO Royi Burstien worked as head of intelligence in Israeli government units before the company was founded. Psy-Group is owned by a series of companies registered in Cyprus and the British Virgin Islands, making ownership hard to track" Wait...it gets worse. Image

Benjamin Netanyahu wants to artificially stoke protests in America to prevent us from focusing on protests against him in Israel. It also benefits MAGA to have a new antifa. Prove me wrong. cnn.com/2024/04/01/mid…
Before Netanyahu resumes the slaughter of Palestinians he needs America to get all worked up against "them". Cuz U.S. schools are not safe. Trivia: The IDF scored direct hits on 212 out of 563 schools in Gaza. nbcnews.com/video/netanyah…
Qatar is also tired of Israel's... and Hamas' bullshit. THey both keep moving the goalposts. 203 days of hostages suffering for no good reason. haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

The media catches up. Now lets do some damn enterprise journalism. Influence operations push money, influence and support to dirty and unwitting politicans through multiple illegal and legal channels. Right Viktor Orban?
It's not rocket science to figure out how Putin moves money to Putin's pro Russian EU whores. Same methods are used here. Start with the odd things they say and work backwards. Oligarchs are key. aalep.eu/pro-russian-po…

The DoJ did a decent investigation before being shut down by Bill Barr. Why would Bill Barr shut down an investigation into dirty Russian..and Gulf and Israel money and influence flow? cnn.com/2018/01/30/pol…
