💭 More than 33,000 people are now known to have died after Monday’s earthquakes in Turkey and Syria – and each hour rescue workers find yet more bodies in the rubble of destroyed towns.
Remarkably, some people are still being found alive. Earlier today a ten year old girl was among survivors pulled out of collapsed buildings in the Turkish province of Hatay.
💭 Turkey said a Kurdish militia killed three people in rocket attacks from northern Syria on Monday, in an escalation of cross-border retaliation following Turkish air operations at the weekend and a bomb attack in Istanbul a week ago.
The five rockets hit a school, two houses and a truck in the Karkamis district, near a border gate in Gaziantep province, the governor Davut Gul said, adding six had been wounded. Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu later said three had died.
Broadcaster CNN Turk said the rockets were fired from the Kobani area of Syria, controlled by the YPG militia.
In response to the attack, Turkey’s armed forces were retaliating, the defence ministry said in a statement.
Turkish warplanes had already carried out air strikes on Kurdish militant bases in Syria and Iraq on Sunday, destroying 89 targets, authorities in Ankara said.
Speaking to reporters on his return from a trip to Qatar, President Tayyip Erdogan said the operations would not be limited to just an air campaign and that discussions would be held on the involvement of ground forces.
“It is not limited to just an air campaign,” Erdogan was quoted by Turkish media as saying.
“Our defence ministry and our general staff decide together how much of the land forces should take part. We make our consultations, and then we take our steps accordingly.”
RETALIATION
The defence ministry said the weekend operation was in retaliation for a bomb attack in Istanbul last week that killed six people. Authorities have blamed the attack on the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).
The PKK and Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which includes the YPG, have denied involvement in the bombing on Nov. 13.
As part of the weekend operations, Ankara said eight security personnel had been wounded in rocket attacks by the YPG from Syria’s Tal Rifat on a police post near a border gate in Turkey’s Kilis province.
The PKK launched an insurgency against the Turkish state in 1984. It is considered a terrorist organisation by Turkey, the United States and the European Union.
Washington has allied with the YPG in the fight against Islamic State in Syria, causing a rift with NATO ally Turkey.

😢 What a shame; the UN is doing nothing but count the dead.
💭 The UN human rights office said on Tuesday that 306,887 civilians had been killed in Syria during the conflict since March 2011 in what it said was the highest estimate yet.
Syria’s conflict sprung out of peaceful protests against President Bashar al-Assad’s rule in March 2011 and morphed into a multi-sided, protracted conflict that sucked in world powers.
For all the latest headlines follow our Google News channel online or via the app.
The frontlines have been mostly frozen for years but violence is ongoing and the humanitarian crisis grinds on with millions still displaced within Syria’s borders.
UN human rights chief Michelle Bachelet said its latest analysis would give a “clearer sense of the severity and scale of the conflict”.
The toll included those killed as a direct result of war operations and not those who died from lack of healthcare or access to food or clean water. Nor did it include non-civilian deaths.
The top cause of civilian deaths was from so-called “multiple weapons” (35.1 percent) which includes clashes, ambushes and massacres, a U.N. report that accompanied the statement showed. The second cause of death was by heavy weapons (23.3 percent).

💭 It’s The Weeknd! Superstar Singer Becomes World Food Programme Goodwill Ambassador
💭 Record-breaking vocalist and songwriter inducted into ‘W E P family’ at special ceremony in Los Angeles
Award-winning Canadian singer The Weeknd, who holds the record for the longest-charting single in the US, has joined with World Food Programme (W E P) as a Goodwill Ambassador.
“The UN World Food Programme is doing urgent and important work to change and save lives on a daily basis and I feel passionately about addressing world hunger and helping people in need,” he said, accepting the honour at a special ceremony in Los Angeles yesterday (7 October).
The Weeknd has been a passionate advocate and generous supporter of humanitarian causes throughout his career, donating more than US$3 million to various organizations in the past year alone. Most recently, he gifted US$1 million to W E P’s relief efforts in Ethiopia following months of deadly violence.
As the son of Ethiopian immigrants to Canada, the conflict deeply affected him, he has said, and ultimately this moved him to deepen his relationship with W E P. “Our partnership is an authentic extension of all our efforts and intentions to help those in need and bring an end to so much suffering,” said The Weeknd (born Abel Tesfaye).
W E P Executive Director David Beasley said: “We are thrilled to welcome The Weeknd to the W E P family. His compassion and commitment to helping the world’s hungriest people is truly inspirational.”
Beasley added: “Every night, 811 million people go to bed hungry, and another 270 million are marching toward starvation. This is just not right and we have got to speak out and act today to save lives. We need everyone to come join our movement to end hunger – it is all-hands on deck to avoid a global catastrophe.”
The Weeknd, known for hits such as ‘Starboy’ and ‘Take My Breath’, joins an international roster of ambassadors including Kate Hudson and Michael Kors, who lend their voices to support W E P’s mission to end hunger. The organization provides lifesaving food assistance to more than 100 million people in 80 countries.
W E P USA chief Barron Segar said: “Whether he is performing or speaking out about global hunger, The Weeknd’s voice is powerful and inspiring, only matched by his dedication to helping people around the globe. We are honoured that he has joined our mission. He will undoubtedly inspire the next generation of humanitarians in the fight to ensure no man, woman or child goes to bed hungry.”
W E P said via a press release: “The continuous record-breaking of charts, sales and streams, headlining the biggest festivals and stadiums in the world including this year’s Super Bowl, and his ever-mysterious public persona, have combined to establish The Weeknd as one of the most compelling and significant artists of the 21st century.”

The Oromos/Gallas who are unfortunately now in power in Addis, are a nomadic and pastoral people, who 500 years ago were living in what is present day Kenya and Tanzania, were on the move looking for greener pastures for their cattle, which were the backbone of their economy. The Oromos, contrary to current popular belief, were not organized into a single unitary state, but were a fractured society of nomads organized into Gadas. Each Gada had a leader and operated according to the interests of the Gada and not as part of a bigger entity or an Oromo nation. Some of the Gadas moved Westward from present day Kenya, past Lake Victoria and ended up in what is now Rwanda and Burundi (they may have been the ancestors of the people currently known as the genocidal Hutus, who have very close cultural ties to the Oromos that live in present day Kenya and Ethiopia).
Those nomad Gadas that moved north into Ethiopia did so in staggered waves. According to the Portuguese, the Oromos first set foot in Ethiopia in the year 1522. But their advances were checked by the Ethiopians. Only after 10 years of destructive wars between Adal and Ethiopia, which weakened both nations, were the Oromos able to move deeper into Ethiopia and Adal unopposed. Some may not know this, but the reason that the Adals built the wall of Harrer, which still stands today, was to defend the capital from the advances of the Oromo. A very interesting point that I would like to make here is that, it was because of Gragn that the Oromos got what is now largely perceived as a derogatory name – Galla. From my understanding, when Gran realized that the Ethiopians were turning the tides of war against him, he needed allies quickly and approached the Oromo Gada that had settled closest to Adal, seeking a military alliance.
💭 The Gallas had little to contribute to the Semitized civilization of Ethiopia; they possessed no significant material or intellectual culture, and their social organization differed considerably from that of the population among whom they settled. They were not only the cause of the depressed state into which the country now sank, but they helped to prolong a situation from
which even a physically and spiritually exhausted Ethiopia might otherwise have been able to recover far more quickly.

“To Be a Tigrayan in Abiy’s Ethiopia is to be a Dead Man Walking.”
“በአብይ ኢትዮጵያ ትግራዋይ መሆን ማለት በእግር የሚሄድ የሞተ ሰው ነው።”
“Turkish-backed forces pursued a similar strategy of demographic transformation as they sought to pursue an ethnic cleansing in Syrian districts along the Turkish frontier of their native Kurdish populations”
💭My Note: This was exactly what has happened to the Christians of Northern Ethiopia 500 years ago – and the Turks plus their Adal and Oromo Muslim allies are trying to achieve the same today by pursuing ethnic cleansing of Christian Northern Ethiopians.
Let’s remember, The Oromos/Gallas who are now unfortunately in power in Addis, are a nomadic and pastoral people, who 500 years ago were living in what is present day Kenya and Tanzania, were on the move looking for greener pastures for their cattle, which were the backbone of their economy. The Oromos, contrary to current popular belief, were not organized into a single unitary state, but were a fractured society of nomads organized into Gadas.

💭 It has now been over a decade since Syria erupted into civil war. The uprising was spontaneous and spread like wildfire. Within weeks, President Bashar Assad had lost control over huge swaths of Syrian territory. The Assad family’s demise appeared inevitable. Rather than flee, however, Assad increased the brutality.
Neither fighting nor atrocities in Syria were random. Both sides fought for control over Homs, a small city literally at the crossroads of the country: Whichever faction controlled Homs could control commerce across Syria. Meanwhile, both Assad and the radicalized opposition sought to cleanse regions along sectarian or ethnic lines. The Syrian air force focused its assaults on Sunni population centers in order to change the demography of the Sunni heartland. Turkish-backed forces pursued a similar strategy of demographic transformation as they sought to pursue an ethnic cleansing in Syrian districts along the Turkish frontier of their native Kurdish populations.
While Russia, Iran, and Lebanese Hezbollah came to Assad’s defense and Turkey supported the radical Sunni opposition, moderate forces found no patron, especially as the Obama administration chose to sit on the sidelines. There was some support for the Syrian Kurds as they struggled against the Islamic State, but it was little, late, and undercut by former President Donald Trump.
Today, Assad has largely reestablished control over Syria. Moving forward, even if the United States follows the Arab lead to normalize relations with Assad, U.S. leverage over the Syrian dictator will be minimal. Assad now associates survival with intransigence and feels mass murder and ethnic cleansing pay off.
Today, Ethiopia is rapidly becoming the new Syria.
In November 2020, Tigrayan leadership rejected Ethiopian Premier Abiy Ahmed’s order to postpone elections. They feared that he sought to follow the path of self-described reformers who consolidate dictatorship . Abiy reacted with fury, sought to decapitate the Tigrayan military leadership, and then dispatched the Ethiopian army to Mekelle, the capital of the Tigray state. While Ethiopian officials insisted Abiy’s battle was just with the Tigray People’s Liberation Front, the army not only denied food to the entire Tigray Region but also closed Tigrayan businesses in Addis Ababa and rounded up ethnic Tigrayans in internment camps. To be a Tigrayan in Abiy’s Ethiopia is to be a dead man walking.
Initially, however, Abiy’s military assaults failed.
Last June, the Tigray Defense Forces recaptured Mekelle, and subsequently, they and other regional groups began to march on Addis Ababa. Just as the Syrian opposition sought to capture Homs, Tigrayan forces sought to cut off the Chinese-built railroad and highway between Addis Ababa and Djibouti, whose port is a lifeline for Ethiopian trade. Over the past week, the United Nations and various embassies began to evacuate their staff. Abiy’s fall appeared inevitable. It has not come yet.
Instead, the Ethiopian military has regained towns in northern Ethiopia that it previously lost. Tigrayan commanders said they made a tactical withdrawal to reconsolidate their lines. Given the press blackout, it is hard to know what is true. What is certain, however, is that while Washington has remained on the sidelines, other states, including Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, and China, have provided Abiy drones and other technologies to use against the rebels and control the population.
They took a gamble. If Abiy remains, their stock will rise while America’s influence will be zero. Meanwhile, refugee flows will accelerate, and ethnic minorities will radicalize. Abiy is a Nobel laureate, and it is possible that with foreign assistance, he can outlast the opposition. But like Assad, he will then rule over a husk of a country whose potential he has largely destroyed.
There is no magic formula to resolve conflicts, but sitting on the sidelines and acting only as a diplomatic scold will never work. It is time for the U.S. to do what it refused to do in Syria: offer meaningful support to those resisting a murderous dictator.
Christian and human rights groups reported over the last week that the 60-year-old Suzan Der Kirkour was found dead outside of her village, al-Yaqoubiyeh.
Islamic terrorists from the Jihadist organization Jabhat al-Nusra stoned to death an Armenian Christian woman living in the Syrian province of Idlib.
Christian and human rights groups reported over the last week that the 60-year-old Suzan Der Kirkour was found dead outside of her village, al-Yaqoubiyeh.
According to the website of International Christian Concern (ICC), “An autopsy revealed that Suzan was tortured and repeatedly raped over an estimated period of nine hours. She was then stoned to death.”
The French Christian humanitarian organization SOS Chrétien’s d’Orient, wrote that “cruel was her ordeal. The reality is just as much… (a) virgin at sixty, she died under the repeated assaults of the jihadists of al-Nusra.”
“The autopsy reveals that Suzan had been subjected to repeated rape since the afternoon of Monday (the 8th) until early Tuesday morning, only hours before her discovery. As a martyr, she is joined in heaven by thousands of Christian brothers, who died in the arena of barbarism,” SOS Chrétien’s d’Orient added.
SOS Chrétiens d’Orient describes itself as a non-political NGO that works “in the heart of the secured areas of the Middle East. It’s young and dynamic members, work on a 24/7 basis the field supporting the Christians of the East, whether Orthodox or Catholic, providing concrete and humanitarian material aid.”
ICC wrote that Suzan worked as a gardener and Arabic teacher. After her retirement, she was a volunteer at the Kneye Village Church “where she helped youth achieve their baccalaureate.”

Watch this video and connect the dots:
AFRIN = AFRICA
Turkey is going to enable the massacres of the Christian population in Afrin. Women and children will lose their lives in front of our very own eyes. The international community is silent about this.
This is going to be a massacre. Not only in Afrin, Turkey committed grave human rights violations and crimes within the country as well. These should be carefully investigated and proved.
The following article was published by the New York Times 158 years ago – UNBELIEVABLE, isn’t it!?
The Syrian Massacres
Published: July 28, 1860
While the Christian world is ringing with the hideous echoes of the recent massacres of the Christians in Syria, and the most clamorous partisans of the Western Powers in the Crimean war seem ready to prostrate themselves in recantation and expiation at the feet of the Czar, it is, perhaps, hardly worth while to say even a single word in behalf of that strange people of the Libanus whose scimitars have done all this fearful work. Certainly there can be no doubt that the destruction of the Maronite towns and people is a flagrant and horrible proof of the utter incompetency of Turkey to fulfill the obligations which she accepted as the price of her existence, from the Christian nations at the peace of Paris. Certainly, too, it must be admitted that Christendom and civilization are alike disgraced by the diplomatic recognition of an empire in which the profession of Christianity puts its votaries practically beyond the pale of any law that can be enforced, and subjects them to the conditions of life in the primeval wilderness, where every man is his own police and court, and code. Yet when we reflect that Turkey entered into no engagements with regard to her Christian subjects, at Paris in 1856, more binding than those which were assumed at the same time and place with regard to the free navigation of the great central river of Europe, the Danube, by Austria; and that however short the Sultan has fallen of keeping his sovereign word, the Emperor FRANCIS JOSEPH has still more openly laughed at his own, we may well hesitate at indorsing in America the vehement language applied in Europe to the first of these defaulting potentates by journalists and statesmen who deal far more gently with the second. And however disagreeable it may be for English Senators and French Envoys to be forced to chat over the dinner-table with the Ambassadors of a State within the borders of which the age of GENGHIS KHAN is acting out once more, in all its historic terrors, it must not be forgotten that the same Christian gentlemen do not think themselves dishonored by the most familiar intercourse with the representatives of an Austrian Emperor, who is inflicting upon the Christians of Venice the utmost extremity of suffering and of insult; or of a Neapolitan King, who stands convicted of ordering with his own hand the wholesale slaughter and ruin of Christian cities in his own dominions. While Christendom consents to look on quietly and diplomatically upon the furious efforts of impossible Christian Governments to maintain themselves at the expense of all Christian liberties and all human rights in Europe, it seems a little hard, to say the least of it, that the death-penalty should he so peremptorily pronounced against a Mohammedan Government which is merely unable to protect those sanctities of civil order which the Hapsburgs and the Bourbons are doing their best utterly to annihilate.
The news which reaches us to-day through the English Government, that the Christians of the great city of Damascus have been overtaken by the tempest of Druse persecution, and that the Consular character itself has been violated in the persons of the representatives of Holland and the United States, will no doubt kindle into a flame the determination of the “Western Powers to take the law of Turkey into their own hands; and as the Turkish Empire has unquestionably outlived its lease of power for good, no man can be sorry that the public feeling of Christendom should be driven to demand the solemn extinction by combined Europe of that factitious Turkish independence which it was necessary to maintain as against the arrogant pretensions of the late Emperor NICHOLAS, but which now stands revealed, a sham and an imposture too cruelly sanguinary in its results, to be any longer treated either with indulgence or contempt. Still, even to falling Turkey and to the ferocious Druses we may afford to be just. The Druses are a singular race. In religion neither Mohammedans nor Christians, but, as they proudly describe themselves, “Unitarians,” they have endured alike from their Moslem suzerains at Constantinople, and from their Christian neighbors, the Maronites, the same calamities which they are now inflicting upon the Syrian followers of the Cross. The line of their Emirs has been more than once illustrated by princes to whose virtues all travelers have eagerly rendered the homage won by FACARDIN, at the courts of Italy, two hundred years ago. So far as they and their victims, the Maronites, are concerned, the outbreak which is now astounding the world must be referred not to any exceptional state of the Turkish empire at large, but to the ancient and inveterate feud which has raged from time immemorial between the two races. There is much reason to believe, indeed, that for the last eighteen months, the Maronites, who ate the especial proteges of Russia in Syria, have been urging on the Druses to the terrible campaign which they are now prosecuting with such mediaeval fury. In a letter from Syria, published in the TIMES a day or two since, one of our own missionaries, Dr. THOMPSON, a most competent and trustworthy witness in the case, distinctly states that the onslaught of the Druses was provoked by an expedition of Maronite Christians on its way to storm the Druse Capital, Shwefat, near Beyrout. This expedition the Turkish Pasha vainly attempted to arrest, the Christians, on their way to annihilate the Druses, spurning his authority as haughtily as the Druses have done in the hour of their vengeful victory.
The Turkish Government, then, should hardly be saddled with the entire responsibility of crimes which cannot even be carried to the account of Mussulman fanaticism. No doubt the Mohammedan populations bitterly hating the Christians, and fearing the Christian Powers, have availed themselves of the Druse war to gratify their thirst of Christian blood without directly implicating their own Government at Stamboul. But as the Druse was itself has arisen from circumstances altogether foreign to Mohammedanism and the temper of Islam, it should be enough, surely, that the Sultan and his people are destined to bear the consequences, without being blasphemed as the origin of these frightful events.
Armenians living in Serêkaniye called upon all Armenians around the world to speak out against the Turkish state’s invasion attempt against Afrin.
Ara Keşişyan is an Armenian citizen living in Serêkaniye city of Rojava. His family from Silvan district of Amed (Diyarbakır) fled the Armenian Genocide and settled in Serêkaniye in 1920. He speaks Kurdish and Arabic as well as his mother tongue Armenian.
In Başko village of Silvan, it was only his grandmother of the 70-member family that survived the genocide.
Keşişyan comments that the mentality of the time’s Turkish ruling to change the demography continues with Turkish President Tayyip Erdoğan today. He tells; “Erdoğan wants to make the Armenians lose. He wants to send the Armenians away from Qamishlo, Lebanon and Aleppo to Europe. He wants to estrange them from their essence.”
“WE ARE READY TO TAKE UP ARMS FOR AFRIN”
Remarking that the Turkish state’s Afrin attack is an attack on the democratic autonomous system- the living and administration system of peoples- Keşişyan says; “Erdoğan attacks Afrin and Afrin mounts great resistance. We believe that the Afrin resistance will finish off Erdoğan. All of us, young and old alike, are ready to take up arms and defend Afrin. We are glad to have the democratic autonomous system and the YPG. Victory will be ours.”
“REMAINING ARMENIANS WILL ALSO BE KILLED”
Keşişyan invited all Armenians to take sides with the Afrin resistance, saying the following; “Armenians everywhere and their institutions should stand with Afrin. Should Erdoğan reach his goal in Afrin, there will be no Armenians, no Kurds or Christians left on these lands. I am calling on all Armenians to stand with Afrin resistance in every way possible.”

President Trump warned himself when he read to the world the infamous “Snake Lyric” Some, including me, have warned President Trump not to be cozy with Arab and Turkish snakes. We all thought President Trump would do something for the US, like save the beautiful babies, and children from the criminal abortionists and pedophiles, or protect those beautiful Christian babies from those Jihadist devils. Deep down in me something has convinced me these same Jihadists have used those chemicals with the help of the Antichrist devils from Turkey and Saudi Barbaria. They found SARIN, and their formula: SARIN = PUTIN. Of course, their eagle eyes are focused, first, on the desperately needed Qatari Gas Pipeline, and then on Orthodox Christian Russia.
One would think, A 180 degree departure by Mr. Trump. I sometimes think he has been bewitched or even cloned. I was surprised that Assad didn’t place some beautiful little babies closer to the bombed airbase today. There is something mysterious goin on. Perhaps, Mr. Trump is playing 24D chess? Or, it’s, indeed, true that in America presidents change, policy doesn’t! I don’t know! But the Satanic Globalists and Neocons (Military Industrial Complex) seem to enjoy war and bloodshed – they are loving this. Have you seen how Canaanite warmongers like McCain are all happy and dancing to the tune?

HOLY WEEK is approaching. Holy Week is the week just before Easter, beginning with what we Christians call “Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord.” The week includes Holy Wednesday (Spy Wednesday), Maundy Thursday (Holy Thursday), Good Friday (Holy Friday) and Holy Saturday. Christians will come together to celebrate Holy Week and, most importantly, to count down to Easter or Fasika, Pasha the time Christians celebrate Christ’s ultimate sacrifice – his death (becoming the sacrificial lamb of God), burial and miraculous Resurrection. Moreover, Holy Week is a time to remember Christ’s promise that He’ll come back again.
That’s why the Antichrist has become more restless than ever, it wants attention, so, it uses all its weapons to cause confusion, trouble, mayhem and bloodshed with the intention to replace The Blood of Our Lord in these Holy Days – to abolish The Holy Sacrifice that Jesus gave us. As I write this story, another blood sacrifice to the Beast, made in Stockholm.
Now with today’s American “Shock and Awe” operation in Syria, the Antichrist intends to steal the attention of the world community away from Jesus Christ. We expect a bloody week in the coming days. Instead of commemorating this day for Christ’s resurrection, the Antichrist leader of Turkey, Erdoğan chose Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord to cement his Ottoman resurrection from the dead. It is also the day, according to Satan Erdoğan, when Muslims must decide on what to do with the Crusaders in what he termed as the “clash between the Crescent and the Cross”.
