Several drones and ballistic missiles were launched from #Yemen and reached targets in the #UAE, mainly three petroleum tankers: 2 killed and 6 wounded.
#SaudiArabia & the United Arab Emirates are unwilling to stop the war on #Yemen, the worst world humanitarian crisis, to lift the siege & to seek peace. @JoeBiden administration lied when promised to stop the war. There is no international will to cease the massacre of Yemenits.
In 2018, #Yemen Houthis retaliated against the two airports Dubai and Abu Dhabi to push the Emirates to stop their intervention in Yemen. That stopped the advance against Hodeida and resulted in the #Stockholm agreement. Today's attack is a message and a reminder to leave Yemen.
For Gulf countries to condemn #Yemen Houthis attack is expected. However, for #Iraq to follow suit is shameful. When did Iraq condemn the massacre of Yemeni for the last 7 years of war? What about the millions of Yemenites under siege and suffering daily?
The pro-Emirati Iraqi Speaker @AlHaLboosii never expressed solidarity with the suffering people of #Yemen even if #Iraq was under harsh #US sanctions, like Yemen, for over a decade, and is supposed to feel for the Yemenites.
EU to #Russia:
You can't talk to the #UK about the security of Europe w/o our involvement. If Russia wants to invade #Ukraine, we'll have 100k refugees that the US will envy us but we shall ask the US to sanction you. Russia will discover that in Europe,we punch above our weight!
EU to #Russia: Even if Russia is the leading supplier to the EU of oil, natural gas & solid fossil fuels, amounting to two-thirds of Europe's needs; even Russia is the 5th-largest exporter and importer from and to the #EU, we can impose sanctions on Russia to please the #US !!!!!
But the #US is telling us that its 70,000 soldiers deployed in Europe serve to “defend the continent against #Russia's aggression”!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But guess who is the fourth larger exporter of oil to the US: Russia
The trend "we are Qasem" #نحن_قاسم is widely shared today and refers to #Iran IRGC brigadier General who fought and crushed #ISIS, assassinated by Donald Trump following the advice of his consigliere Netanyahu. The "Axis of the resistance" is today more powerful than ever before.
#US killed Soleimani, imposed "maximum pressure" on #Iran & #Israel assassinated Iranian nuclear scientists and carried out dozens of sabotage attacks on Iran.
Result:
Iran is stronger than ever with very powerful allies; the US is hated more than ever and Israel is deterred.
#Israel is ending 2021 with an attack against #Syria when its Jets launched missiles against the #Latakia port causing serious damage. Israel is violating the international law, repeatedly attacking a sovereign country. The attack against Latakia is the second this month.
#Israel rarely strikes close to #Latakia, let alone inside the terminal, as #Russia maintains a base of operations nearby. Tuesday’s attack, at 02:15 local time is larger than the strike earlier this month. Israeli jets came from the Mediterranean Sea.
The explosions at #Latakia port could be heard in Tartus coastal city, 80 kilometres away. Ambulances were rushed to the scene and no info on casualties yet. The Syrian air defences were activated. The Latakia port is vital to the Syrian economy, already under harsh sanctions.
#Syria & #Iraq resistance sent 5 armed drones message to the #US occupation forces to leave. An indication that:
Resistance forces r needed against occupation forces so states can deny any involvement and avoid consequences
US can't continue occupying the area & be unaccountable.
A dormitory, a Kitchen, a food storage house were targeted and destroyed by the drones to avoid casualties, indicating the attack was only a message to the #US occupation forces on the borders off #Syria and #Iraq.
The surrounding of the #US base at al-Tanf was also hit by precision missiles to show that a high number of casualties among the #US occupation forces could have been registered if the intention was 'hit to kill'.
#US carried out a drone strike claiming "to have killed ISIS-Khorasan planner in eastern #Afghanistan." US also claim that this "planner was planning another attack". Unclear how US knew about this "planner" and identified him in less than 48 hours. No independent confirmation.
The #US is also claiming that this #ISIS-K was under surveillance before the attack.
Now, if he was under surveillance and known, why he was allowed to plan and carry out the attack? A failure in intelligence if, and a big IF, the information is correct?
The #Taliban offered another story saying: "A drone hit a house (not a vehicle like the #US is claiming) in Jalal Abad", without providing further information. #Afghanistan.
The number of victims at #Kabul attack rose to 90 of which 77 Afghans, among these children and women. Only 13 #US soldiers were killed. 150 were wounded. #Afghanistan.
Islamic State in Afghanistan calls itself the "Khorasan Welayat" (ISIS-K) claimed the responsibility: one suicide bomber got within 5 meters’ of #US troops, careless about the #Afghan civilians, always considered by ISIS-K as "collateral damage".
