Mali’s military junta decided to make its military supporter Russia instead of France. Now it is facing a country-wide coordinated attack from terrorists and ethno-national rebels that the military was not ready for.

Mali is losing territory to Islamist and terrorist forces. Russia has forces there helping the government, but they are failing to prevent this. Mali’s government previously rejected Western help in favor of Russia.

If we take the literal purported lives of certain historical religious figures like Muhammad as a way to live our own lives, then that leads to immoral and barbarous behavior. It is better to see them as inspirations in some spiritual or mystical way.

The two-state solution seems dead. After the second intifada, Israel gave up on it, and has resolved on a one-state solution where Israel dominates the entire territory and Palestinians not living in Israel proper are second-class citizens.
The October 7th terrorist attacks accelerated this. They don’t see the Islamist terrorists as deterrable, so the only option is to dominate them. They can’t make peace because a small group of terrorists can always explode any peace.

Traitor terrorists are striking the US homeland, likely inspired by attacks on Iran. These deaths are likely deaths in the war on Iran.
“First, a deadly shooting being investigated as terrorism devastated a Virginia university in a military town. Hours later, a targeted vehicle-ramming attack on a Michigan synagogue left congregants shaken to their core.
The shooting at Virginia’s Old Dominion University was committed by a veteran who was a convicted ISIS supporter. The attacker was able to kill one person and injure two others before a classroom of ROTC students subdued and killed him, the FBI said.
Then, a vehicle rammed into the Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield Township in an attack the FBI said targeted the Jewish community, carried out by a US citizen who was born in Lebanon, the Department of Homeland Security said. The synagogue had been on high alert for potential violence in the weeks before the building became engulfed in flames after the suspect drove through it with a rifle and a large number of explosives, officials said.
Though the motive in the attack is still unknown, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said there is a clear “nexus” between the Iran war and the attack, adding it’s no coincidence the suspect targeted a synagogue named Temple Israel.
…
Less than two weeks earlier in Austin, Texas, a shooter wearing a hoodie emblazoned with the Iranian flag killed three people and injured over a dozen others in the city’s bustling entertainment district. Though the motive is still under investigation, authorities are investigating whether the shooter was inspired in part by US and Israeli strikes on Iran that weekend, multiple law enforcement officials briefed on the case said.”
