China bashing network IPAC’s parliamentary chumps in New Zealand are advised by veteran China-baiter Anne-Marie Brady (pictured on IPAC’s website in typically Kiwi casual evening dress). Brady has a prominent role in the wider IPAC organisation. Funding for IPAC is mainly from Taiwan, the US and Japan. https://t.co/muhanqx8Ca

🧵1/2 “China is tightening the noose around New Zealand”
“Independent” NZ journalist Anna Fifield goes big on China threat inflation.
Not sure how China’s 12mth travel ban on NZ’s little band of wannabe Red baiting MPs gets to be a noose around NZ’s neck - but hey - I guess thats the kind of China expertise Ms Fifield wants to bring to Kiwis. If you follow her content and the China sources she aligns with - straight out of the DC beltway. Disappointing.

Spain blacklists Palantir from public and private state-controlled companies
——
The Spanish government has implemented a blacklist against the US data analytics firm Palantir on 1 July, barring public and private state-controlled companies from establishing new contracts with the company.

This shift is driven by national security concerns regarding the protection of classified data and a desire to maintain Spanish sovereignty over sensitive information.

While the military continues to use Palantir’s services under a preexisting agreement, the leadership in Madrid is facing internal pressure to decide on its renewal before it expires.

The decision also reflects geopolitical friction between Spain and the United States, alongside a broader European movement to favor local technology over foreign software. To reduce this reliance on external providers, Spain is significantly increasing its investments in domestic tech firms like Openchip.

This policy alignment mirrors similar actions taken by other European nations, such as France and Germany, who are prioritizing regional digital independence.

On Shane Jones and the self referred “The Matua”. In the supreme subjective position there is God ..then in the junior objective position there is God’s only son The Matua . Matua is the son of God . That person who is talking about “The Matua” is God. Now of course if you want to approach God on good terms - you must defer to “The Matua” . Then on the right hand of The Matua - there is His Winstoness - the harbinger of The Matua- this was all prophesied a long time ago and rediscovered in the lost Goldie screenshots at Whananaki ….this is all I am permitted to reveal at this time.

Israeli minister calls for kidnapping of Lebanese women and children to break Hezbollah morale
——
Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir urged the political-security cabinet to abduct and imprison Lebanese women and children as a psychological warfare tactic against Hezbollah, according to a closed-door leak published by Hebrew news outlet Walla.

During a high-level ministerial meeting reviewing expanded military calculations, Ben-Gvir demanded that Tel Aviv abandon conventional strategy and explicitly target the social and familial core of the Lebanese resistance network.

"We must think outside the box regarding Hezbollah," Ben-Gvir asserted to his fellow cabinet members, according to the report. The Israeli minister added that alongside occupying southern territory and intensifying lethal strikes on personnel, Israeli forces should actively round up civilians.

"We should arrest their women and children and take them to prison; this is what hurts them the most," he stated.

Based on Mr. Aoun's comments, one would think it's Iran that has occupied 1/5 of Lebanon, displaced 1/4 of Lebanese and bombing his country on daily basis.

Had Lebanon been bargaining chip for Iran, we'd have a deal long ago.

Save Lebanon from your real foe, Mr. President.

Flotilla participants are arriving at Istanbul airport. This is what Israel military and prison personnel did to them.

If the lesson of the Holocaust had truly been absorbed, States -especially those historically responsible for it- would prevent injustice, instead of championing double standards, selective outrage and racialised inconsistency in the face of atrocities.

European diplomats and politicians, please remember: there is a genocide ongoing. Ask yourselves what would you do, if we were in 1930.
Let's halt the multilateral disorder. Let's work together for a decolonised multilateralism premised upon dignity and human rights -for real.
