The USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) is currently facing intense scrutiny and political debate following reports of severely deteriorating living conditions, mental health crises, and a record-breaking deployment exceeding 260 days at sea without a port call. Stationed in the Middle East to support operations in the war against Iran. Families of the roughly 5,000 sailors and Marines aboard, alongside eyewitness accounts, have detailed a compounding quality-of-life crisis caused by heavily disrupted supply chains: Supply Shortages: Intense combat and regional disruptions broke traditional Middle East supply hubs, causing rolling shortages of fresh food, basic hygiene items like soap, and mail delivery. Infrastructure Issues: Reports highlight broken plumbing, mold-infested showers, and water contamination aboard the aging vessel. Operational Strain: Crew members have endured an unrelenting operational pace, supporting over 10,000 combat aircraft flights and expending 1.5 million pounds of ordnance while defend

Today a new round of large protests in the Netherlands, farmers in the province of Noord-Brabant are blocking roads, municipalities with their trucks and agricultural equipment reason: "After a years-long legal battle, the provincial government decided to revoke the permits of five poultry farmers. This was preceded by a case brought by the environmental organizations Mobilisation for the Environment (MOB) and Vereniging Leefmilieu, who had asked the province to revoke the permits of high-polluters. So actually, it's NGOs together with incompetent politicians ruining five families. These are the first five; if it is up to the incompetent politicians, many more will follow."

Despite the propaganda of the West and Ukraine..The Russian army is rapidly conquering Krasny Liman. A drone team leader told about the progress on mopping up the settlement: The hostile logistic is shrinking, the enemy moves deeper into the rear.

Russian servicemen performed another quiet feat, evacuating six civilians from Krasnoarmeysk. Among them, there is an elderly woman with mobility issues who was carefully delivered to a safe area. " People were hostages: one of the rescued women with tears in her eyes told what they had to go through. Ukrainian militants broke into their house and took away remaining supplies of food and fuel. Sitting in warm place, they forced civilians at gunpoint to find food for them. "

Putin bei Manöver der Pazifikflotte: Russland wird auf "Piraterie" reagieren Der russische Präsident Wladimir Putin hat die Abschlussphase eines großangelegten Manövers der russischen Pazifikflotte besucht. Die Übungen laufen seit dem 4. August und umfassen rund 60 Schiffe und Boote sowie mehr als 13.000 Soldaten. An Bord eines Raketenkreuzers erklärte Putin, das Konfliktpotenzial im asiatisch-pazifischen Raum nehme zu. Er verwies dabei auf eine wachsende NATO-Präsenz, neue Militärbündnisse und geplante Waffensysteme in der Region. Zugleich warnte Putin vor möglichen Beschlagnahmungen russischer Handelsschiffe und Öltransporte. Entsprechende Maßnahmen bezeichnete er als "Piraterie und Raub" und kündigte für diesen Fall eine spiegelbildliche Reaktion Russlands an. Diese müsse sich nicht auf jene Gewässer beschränken, in denen russische Schiffe festgesetzt würden, sondern könne auch den Verantwortungsbereich der Pazifikflotte betreffen. @MTnews_Deutsch

Feel very ashamed to be Dutch, I didn't know Rotterdam buried a fascist, but hey the Dutch-regime was always expect in the eighties a fascist regime, but politicians in the Netherlands called it liberal or now democratic..D'66 shameful really.. https://www.nu.nl/buitenland/6406053/resten-van-in-rotterdam-begraven-oekraiense-nationalist-terug-naar-kyiv.html

My latest article in Dutch, easily to be translated in any language: Het is genoeg geweest, zoveel nepnieuws, leugens en propaganda, de ene doemscenario na de andere https://freesuriyah.eu/2026/08/12/het-is-genoeg-geweest-zoveel-nepnieuws-leugens-en-propaganda-de-ene-doemscenario-na-de-andere/ Oorlog, de wereld gaat ten onder door vuur en hitte, allerlei propaganda wordt verspreid via de zogenaamde media! Foto’s: Adobe Stock, diverse media, bewerking: MirjamPhoto We groeiden op als nuchtere Nederlanders met de slogan: Doe maar gewoon, dat is al gek genoeg, of de vrijheid van onze tijd, in de jaren (19) tachtig, de redelijke, vrije media en politici met gezond verstand – misschien soms wat afgezaagde, pompeuze taal van politici als Den Uyl of Van Agt, wat voor gewone burgers een soort hocus pocus was – maar we waren nuchter met een gezonde dosis verstand, tegen oorlog en voor het volk, we hadden werk, we respecteerden elkaar, we losten ruzies en meningsverschillen op door te praten met elkaar.

Al-Jolani, leader of Al-Qaeda and HTS, which now rules former Syria as a caliphate, has sentenced former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad through his Sharia courts to death in absentia. When will Al-Jolani be sentenced? The US labeled him a terrorist and crazy Trump thinks he is a good guy! This is how sick the USA and it's vasal states are, unfortunately the secular government under Assad could not hold, being left alone with an army exhausted after 14 year of war against the Wests terrorists. Now Syria is like a caliphate, again today HTS-government forces attacked the Kurds, maybe tomorrow the Christians and Alawites are murdered and kidnapped nearly every day. But hey Trump thinks he is a good guy, these are the morals of the US using terrorists and perhaps dispose them again..

My comments on RT regarding the American intention to increase economic pressure on Iran. However, it is abundantly clear that the US has lost this war against Iran (yet again). Just like in Afghanistan and Iraq. To conceal their weakness regarding the supply of weapons, and particularly the Patriots, which makes "boots on the ground" difficult, Donald Trump is turning it into a show of war one day and peace the next, to cause unrest and confusion.

"Kill Russians" - Online petition calls for the dismissal of FAZ correspondent Michael Martens FAZ staffer Michael Martens attracted international attention at a press conference due to his deliberately provocative question to Ukrainian President Zelensky. An online petition is now calling for his dismissal, arguing that a journalist who publicly asks "how to kill more Russians" has no place in a newsroom. - „Tötet Russen“ – Online-Petition fordert Entlassung des FAZ-Korrespondenten Michael Martens Der FAZ-Mitarbeiter Michael Martens erregte auf einer Pressekonferenz internationales Aufsehen mit seiner bewusst provokanten Frage an den ukrainischen Präsidenten Selenskyj. Eine Online-Petition fordert nun seine Entlassung mit der Begründung, ein Journalist, der öffentlich fragt, „wie man mehr Russen töten kann“, habe in einer Redaktion nichts zu suchen.

#SouthernSyria |#RuralDamascus: Christian man goes missing on Saidnaya. Fadi Jameel Sam'an, a Christian jeweler has gone missing since 2/8/2026 on Damascus - Saidnaya road.

🇺🇸 POLITICAL GYMNASTICS – GOLD MEDAL GUARANTEED Watch the greatest show on Earth: the very same Republican stars who once called Trump a coward, a crook, a bad person, and told him to get lost – now praise him as a fearless, God‑blessed savior who saved the world. Same faces. Same man. Completely opposite speeches. Principles? They had an expiration date somewhere around 2016. Don't blink – you might miss the next backflip. Or maybe not, because they'll do it again tomorrow. @strategic_culture via @kozakrichala

My Comments at Turkish Broadcaster TRT about Ukraine hitting Wildberries - Wildberries is the largest Russian online retailer.. In addition to Russia, Wildberries also supplies the United Arab Emirates a Armenia, Azerbaijan https://rumble.com/v7dtij8-my-comments-at-turkish-broadcaster-trt-about-ukraine-hitting-wildberries.html

My Comments at Turkish Broadcaster TRT about Ukraine hitting Wildberries Wildberries is the largest Russian online retailer.. In addition to Russia, Wildberries also supplies the United Arab Emirates and the former Soviet republics of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan. It therefore involves not only Russia but also other countries, and is comparable to Amazon or the Chinese AliExpress. It does not produce weapons; it is a regular online store where you used to be able to order drones or a certain type of military uniform (not official), just like at AliExpress or Amazon (although that is no longer possible at Wildberries – drones).

🇺🇦 Zelensky fired his popular Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov, a technocrat and reformer popular with Generation Z, because he threatened the corruption network within the Ukrainian regime. Fedorov wanted to reform the military procurement system and the top management positions—striking a raw nerve with high-ranking officials afraid for their jobs and their corrupt schemes. Fedorov's appointment led to significant dissatisfaction among many high-ranking Ukrainian government officials, who subsequently exerted constant pressure and spread negativity... They were not only afraid for their jobs, but the corruption prevailing within the Ukrainian regime could also well begin to crumble. With Fedorov's dismissal, Zelensky may have sealed his own political "death sentence." The EU's darling was ousted because he tried to clean up the system. Ukraine's war is also a civil war—and the West has taken sides, just as in Syria and Iraq. 💬 Read more by Sonja van den Ende @devendonline 🌐 More analysis 🚀 Subscribe 🌐 Join us on VK

My latest article on Strategic Culture: Why Zelensky fired his popular defense minister https://strategic-culture.su/news/2026/08/05/why-zelensky-fired-his-popular-defense-minister/ With Fedorov’s dismissal, Zelensky may well have sealed his own “death sentence” as president. The popular former Ukrainian Minister of Defense Mykhailo Fedorov was dismissed about two weeks ago by Ukrainian President Zelensky. Mykhailo was and is very popular, particularly among what is nowadays called Generation Z – the youth or young generation of Ukraine. Mykhailo himself does not belong to Generation Z (though he is young enough), but having already served as Minister of Defense at the tender age of 35 makes him very popular among them. He is a technocrat and reformer and has publicly stated that upon his resignation he was approached by international organizations in the field of defense technology; there were even rumors that Elon Musk had offered him a job.
