„Zusammenfassung: Die Europäer haben auf eine Bedrohung von außen nicht gemeinsam reagiert, sondern sind übereinander hergefallen. Der gestrige Tag war ein schwarzer Tag für Europa und ein Fest für seine Feinde.“ https://t.co/qnhjJVenxG

Aquí el Financial Times describe cómo la entrada masiva a Ceuta llevaba días preparándose y cocinándose en redes sociales, y en propio el entorno de la plaza española, con la complicidad del Estado marroquí:

El País reports that many of the accounts that spread claims that the Ceuta-Morocco border was open have “already disappeared” from social media.
“The amplification of the messages may have relied on bots, or automated accounts.”

Flying to Beijing to shoot the September issue of Esquire and Harper’s Bazaar. This airport replaced cashier humans with robots. I bought a $2 water from it. Kinda creepy.
I leave this episode very pessimistic on the future of the EU. An external attack was launched against us, large segments of the EU elites sided with the attackers. Through ignorance mostly, careerism also, just a complete lack of intellect and fiber and life experience
If you want to understand the catastrophic economic situation that the USA 🇺🇸 is in, you need to study the completely mind blowing size of the US national federal debt.
The total federal debt is now almost 40 trillion dollars. Which is almost six times as much as the annual budget of the federal government.
This means, that right now, as I write this, each US American owes 115.,327 dollars in federal debt. (If you read this half a day later go to the website and check out how much it has gone up since).
That is per person. So, for a core family of four, the debt is 461,308 dollars. And for that average core family, the annual interest payment is 13,000 dollars.
The worst part? The debt just keeps growing. The official annual deficit is 1,7 trilion a year out of a total federal budget of only 7,2 trillion.
For each dollar the federal government spends, 23 cents is unfunded deficit and 15 cents is interest payment.
And it actually gets even worse. Because I have not even included state and local debt in these number.

If you want to understand the vision this US administration has for Europe, imagine 30 little Trumps ruling their own little fiefdoms all locked in continuous conflict with each other and looking to the US to provide them with an edge over their rivals.
Some here in Europe are eager to help make this vision a reality. We must not let it come to pass.
Top US officials amplifying the disinformation and disruption campaign targeting Europe; currently the US is attempting to destablise Spain and produce a right wing ecosystem to oust the current government.
The campaign mirrors Russia's strategy, is being pushed by Trump admin.
It was Gaddafi who first realised in the 2000s that migration can be used as a means of political blackmail. Since then Erdogan, Putin, Assad, Lukashenka, and the king of Morocco have all used it.
Several Moroccans said police encouraged them to cross into Ceuta, with some officers telling migrants to “go that way” or “come to Spain.”

We have detected an intensive Russian propaganda campaign across Europe using pictures from Ceuta to sow destabilization.
There have been more than 1,500 publications on outlets identified by analysts as a pro-Russian network, led by Pravda and RT. Pravda Spanish has posted almost 300 of them. Every language edition of RT has pushed more than 25 news items on the issue.
For years, Moscow has used migration and other sensitive topics to stoke fear and destabilize European countries.
This is not about the situation itself, but about the way Russia tries to exploit any topic that can benefit its agenda. The only way to protect the public from this interference is to cut it off.
All Russian propaganda resources should be completely banned in every European country that takes its national security seriously.
