Deep impact of Ukraine-Russian war on Middle East, North Africa geopolitics

Deep impact of Ukraine-Russian war on Middle East, North Africa geopolitics

By Dr Nishakant Ojha Countries from the Middle East and North Africa have started to feel the heat from the war in Europe on their food security, energy prices, and job markets. They are torn between sympathising with Ukrainians fleeing their homes and cities destroyed by Russian weapons and remembering how the world looked away as the same weapons were wrecking havoc on Syria and Libya only a…

Come on, would a massive defense contractor really have any hand in the death between testimonies of a whistleblower when individuals at that company could personally face financial and criminal consequences for things the person testifying was going to say?

I mean to even suggest such a thing is ludicrous. Boeing would never have any part in killing a whistleblower. It is literally the last thing they would do. They don’t even make movies about that sort of thing, that’s how crazy that pure fantasy is.

From the article:

“At the time of his death, Mr Barnett had been in Charleston for legal interviews linked to that case.”

“Last week, he gave a formal deposition in which he was questioned by Boeing's lawyers, before being cross-examined by his own counsel.”

“He had been due to undergo further questioning on Saturday. When he did not appear, enquiries were made at his hotel.”

Ukrainian made Vampire attack drones, Ukraine, 2023. Source: NOELREPORTS

The "Army of Drones" is sending more than 270 Ukrainian Vampire attack drones to the front, Minister of Digital Transformation Fedorov said. According to him, these are Ukrainian-made copters. They can carry up to 15 kilograms of payload. The military will use them to destroy both armored vehicles and tanks, as well as enemy defense structures, fortifications, or ammunition depots(..)

P.S. It is important for Ukraine and the other countries of Eastern Europe and the Baltic region to develop their own military industry, especially high-tech long-range weapon systems. We are still at risk that several corrupt Western politicians want to make the same deals with the Kremlin as Nazi Germany did on August 23, 1939, by signing the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact

“Delegate Is Held After Complaint Regarding Relief,” Toronto Globe. October 24, 1932. Page 1. ---- City Asking Deportation for Allegedly Troublesome Irishman --- MAYOR WITHOUT ESCORT ---- Draper Withdraws Special Police Assigned to Prevent Annoyance ----- Leaving Mayor Stewart’s office late yesterday afternoon, after reading a carefully prepared document, in which he made a complaint regarding the treatment of the unemployed in city hostels, William McKnight, aged 23, no home, was arrested by city detectives, on instructions of Commissioner of Public Welfare A. W. Laver.

McKnight was taken to the nearest police station, and held on a charge of vagrancy. He will be remanded, and in the meantime Commissioner Laver will ask the Federal Department of Immigration to deport him to Ireland. McKnight said he was born in Dublin, but later claimed to be born in Belfast. Recently McKnight was arrested in connection with a case of stolen property, and after being held in the Don Jail, for some days, was released from custody. After his release, he took part in a meeting in a downtown church on Sunday afternoon, during which demands were framed by the unemployed.

Escort Withdrawn Coincident with McKnight’s arrest, Chief Constable Draper withdrew the police escort which has been accompanying the mayor about the city. The Mayor’s family have been annoyed greatly during the past three weeks by men of some organization, one of whom endeavored to prevent Miss Stewart from driving an automobile into the family garage. Mrs. Stewart has been annoyed also with telephone messages, during which she was subjected to abusive language.

Interrogated by Mayor Stewart yesterday afternoon, McKnight is said to have admitted that he was not alone in the agitation, and that there were two dozen men associated with him. He declared that while in jail on the former charge the Canadian Labor Defense League’s solicitor, Onie Brown, handled his case.

Commissioner of Public Welfare Laver stated that the charge of vagrancy would be preferred against him, because he, McKnight, had refused to do light work when his turn in Wellington House in return for food and lodging. The request for deportation must be made by the city on account of the policy of the Federal Government to deport a British-born citizen unless asked to do so by a municipality.

Rejects Assistance McKnight’s agitation on behalf of the unemployed took the form of a personal criticism on Saturday. He refused to accept what Wellington House had to offer him, tossed back into an official’s face a ticket for the Fred Victor Mission, and would have nothing to do with Seaton House. He charged that officials in charge of the hostels were ‘grafters and thieves,’ and alleged that one was intoxicated. McKnight, it is said, became more infuriated with each attempt on the part of the civic officials to satisfy his demands, and finally he left his office at Church and Adelaide Streets, asserting he intended to pay a visit to Mayor Stewart’s home last night to present his demands in person.

Police, who are in touch continually with the unemployed, learned what McKnight claimed he would do, and despatched an officer to Mayor Stewart’s home. McKnight, however, did not appear, and yesterday they were asked by Commissioner Laver to locate him.

Found at Mission McKnight is said to have been located in the Fred Victor Mission and taken to Detective headquarters in the City Hall by Detectives Waterhouse and Storm. The Mayor requested the police to bring him to his office. McKnight read his carefully prepared in which he claimed that the city had no legal right to send him to the House of Industry and that it was obliged to provide him with lodging and food as he required. The Mayor replied to him emphatically and finally instructed Commissioner Laver to take him away. As McKnight left the Mayor’s office, the Commissioner called the police and ordered his arrest.

McKnight is said to have told Commissioner Laver that he and his wife were on relief distributed from the House of Industry in 1930 and that Mrs. McKnight returned to Ireland nine months ago.

Mayor Stewart and Commissioner Laver last night visited the hostels of the Department of Public Welfare. They found the hostels spotlessly clean, and in the rooms set aside for recreation, men in groups were singing the more familiar hymns. In one hostel, a clergyman sought the right to speak to the men. This was refused him by Commissioner Laver, who pointed out that any man living in city hostels could attend a church, and there were churches of all denominations in the heart of the city.

When Detectives Harold Waterhouse and Fred Storm asked McKnight what the trouble was, he is alleged to have accused Commissioner Laver, Captain Heron and the staff administering welfare work in the city of ‘grafting.’

Complains of Food Detective Waterhouse reported the prisoner was livng in the Wellington House. He said he refused to eat the food given in the House of Industry, claiming it was not fit to eat.

He complained bitterly of the food in the Wellington House, declaring that for the amount of money expended by the city to provide for the unemployed, those adminsitering the relief must be grafting. It was then, police allege, that he mentioned the names of the officials.

It is charged by police, McKnight has spent much time agitating inmates of the Wellington House and the House of Industry. Complaints have reached police of McKnight addressing those on relief, and making bitter remarks about food and living quarters for the needy.

Searching a room of a house in Dundas Street East, last night, police found asuitcase, which, they say, belongs to McKnight. It was correspondence from Irish papers in which McKnight had articles published concerning the Free State.

Police also claim to have established evidence that McKnight had been writing letters to different city appears protesting against the City Welfare Department. The articles were written, they said, under the signature of ‘Irishman.’ A number of obscene pictures are also alleged to have been found in the house.

When asked if it was true, his wife had returned to Ireland, McKnight told the detectives it was so, and it was then he announced his desire to be deported.

[AL; McKnight sounds like an awesome dude, fighting the good fight, making life miserable for the Mayor of Toronto and the god-botherers that ran the cities shelters for unemployed and homeless.]
