The Hidden Military Use of 5G Technology

by Manlio Dinucci

The Hidden Military Use of 5G Technology

Rome (Italy) | 13 December 2019
The operation organised by the "Five Eyes" against Huawei aims exclusively to ensure that 5G technology in the West will not be controlled by a Chinese company. As a Pentagon report attests, this civilian technology is primarily used for military purposes.

Syrian Turkmen militia supplied with German-made tanks

Syrian Turkmen militia supplied with German-made tanks

2 December 2019
The Syrian Turkmen militia, renowned for supporting the Turkish army against the PKK/YPG, has just received at least two Leopard 2A4 tanks (upgraded version featuring a digital computer).
These tanks are manufactured by the German company Krauss-Maffei, which supplied the near totality of NATO forces throughout the 1980’s. The Turkish army bought 340 of them, around 50 of which were deployed in Syria and about a dozen were destroyed in battle.
This is the first time that a militia in the (...)

The Trump Administration Is Establishing the U.S. Space Command

Washington D. C. (États-Unis) | 29 August 2019
“When it comes to defending America, it is not enough to merely have an American presence in space. We must have American dominance in space”
President Donald J. Trump
ESTABLISHING SPACE COMMAND: Today, at the direction of President Donald J. Trump, the Secretary of Defense established the United States Space Command to ensure space superiority.
The United States Space Command strengthens our ability to deter conflict and ensure unfettered access to, and freedom to operate in, space. (...)

Pushing Back on Russian Propaganda Regarding the INF Treaty and Timeline

Pushing Back on Russian Propaganda Regarding the INF Treaty and Timeline

Washington D. C. (États-Unis) | 30 July 2019
Russian Myth: Russia’s demonstration of the 9M729 on January 23, 2019, proved that the system is INF Treaty compliant and showed that Russia is being transparent.
Fact: Russia’s so-called “demonstration” on January 23, 2019, of what it claimed was the 9M729 launcher and canister did not change the fact that the system is a violation of the INF Treaty, because it has been flight-tested to distances prohibited under the treaty. The United States and most of our NATO Allies did not attend this (...)

The race for the domination of Space

Rome (Italy) | 18 July 2019
The remarkable display of aerobatics by a flying infantryman during the military parade of 14 July 2019 masks the creation of a Joint Military Space Command. After Russia, China and the United States, France is the fourth military power to invest in a sector which for a long time had been free from nuclear weapons. Not much longer.

IDF Inaugurates Rampage Missiles Against Syria

IDF Inaugurates Rampage Missiles Against Syria

23 April 2019
The Israeli army has reportedly fired Rampage missiles against Syria for the first time.
On April 2nd, 2019, at 0230 hours, Israeli planes operating illegally from Lebanese airspace destroyed three hangars at a Syrian military base in Maysaf, Hama district, wounding three soldiers.
According to the Jerusalem Post, the missiles used would be the new high precision supersonic Rampage missiles. These projectiles with a range of 150 km and an accuracy of 10 m, are easy to detect but, given (...)

"Arab NATO" project on very shaky ground

"Arab NATO" project on very shaky ground

18 April 2019
Just as the United States is about to reveal its self-denominated "Deal of the Century" plan for the Middle East, Egypt has announced - on April 14, 2019 - that it will not participate in the «Strategic Alliance of the Middle East», or the «Arab NATO». As the country with the Arab world’s largest army, Egypt’s withdrawal seriously undermines the entire project.
Egypt considers that it does not have any common strategic objective with the other States which could form the alliance, nor does it (...)

According to Kurdistan24, DAESH (ISIS) used chlorine gas in Syria

16 April 2019
An Iraqi court sentenced to death the Belgian citizen Bilal Abdoul-Aziz al-Marshouhi (aka "Abou Fadhil al-Belgiqi") for his membership of the Islamic Emirate terrorist organization (Daesh is known in the West as Islamic State or by its English acronym, ISIS).
"I was born in Belgium and have Belgian nationality, despite my Moroccan origins (...) I studied engineering at the University of Antwerp. I became a jihadist after becoming friends with someone who read books that preached radical (...)

Russian comment regarding statements by UK Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt on chemical substances control

Moscow (Russia) | 12 April 2019
We noted a Twitter post of April 10 by UK Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt, stating that it’s been over a year since Russia used the lethal Novichok agent in Salisbury, yet London hears nothing but denials from Russia, which allegedly objected to Novichok being added to the list of substances controlled by the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC). It gets more cynical as you read on: “If they love Novichok so much, other countries will rightly worry about the next Salisbury.”
Although Russia is no (...)

Iran launched a Shahab-3 ballistic missile

Iran launched a Shahab-3 ballistic missile

New York (USA) | 2 April 2019
I write to inform you, yet again, of another clear and alarming violation of Security Council resolution 2231 (2015) by the Iranian regime in the domain of ballistic missile activities.
Israel can now confirm that, on 23 February 2019, Iran conducted another ballistic missile test in the area of Garmsar. This test was conducted to experiment with a new and destructive variant of the Shahab-3 ballistic missile.
The test constitutes a blatant violation of resolution 2231 (2015), as it (...)

Executive Order on Coordinating National Resilience to Electromagnetic Pulses

Washington D. C. (États-Unis) | 26 March 2019
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Purpose. An electromagnetic pulse (EMP) has the potential to disrupt, degrade, and damage technology and critical infrastructure systems. Human-made or naturally occurring EMPs can affect large geographic areas, disrupting elements critical to the Nation’s security and economic prosperity, and could adversely affect global commerce and (...)

Russian comment on the OPCW Special Mission's report concerning the results of investigating the April 7, 2018, incident involving the use of chlorine in Douma, Syria

Moscow (Russia) | 25 March 2019
From March 12 to 15, 2019, The Hague hosted a regular session of the Executive Council of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW). While assessing the session’s results, one has to state with regret that Western representatives have once again demonstrated an openly unconstructive approach with regard to all factors that could have, one way or another, clarified the developments around the Syrian “chemical file,” which was invented by them.
This time, they blocked the (...)

Russian comment on US plans to conduct missile tests on intercepting an ICBM

Russian comment on US plans to conduct missile tests on intercepting an ICBM

Moscow (Russia) | 22 March 2019
We have noted reports in the US media, referencing the Pentagon’s “unnamed sources,” on the intention of the US military to test the interception of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) by an SM-3 Block IIA antimissile in 2020.
Washington also announced similar plans in the Missile Defence Review published on January 17 of this year.
These intentions are bound to cause apprehensions. Reports on the planned tests to intercept an ICBM with an SM-3 Block IIA antimissile again confirm (...)

The price of US « protection » is skyrocketing

The price of US « protection » is skyrocketing

Rome (Italy) | 14 March 2019
The United States intend to consider their allies as protectorates no longer. Consequently, the US is asking them to pay the cost of their protection, failing which, it will withdraw. Such was President Trump’s announcement on 17 January at the Pentagon. It was presented at NATO in February, but was only made public this week. It is a decision which applies to all the allies, from Japan to Germany. The problem is that Washington is also asking its allies to align with US positions… just as they did as protectorates.

Mike Pompeo Remarks to the Press on Venezuela

Washington D. C. (États-Unis) | 11 March 2019
Good afternoon, everyone. Thanks for being here. I want to make some brief remarks about the situation, an update on the situation in Venezuela, an update on U.S. activity related to Venezuela. Over the past few days, Venezuelans have been thrown literally into darkness thanks to a massive electrical blackout. Patients awaiting treatment in hospitals are dying, food is rotting, telecommunication networks are entirely collapsing.
It’s worth spending just a minute on how we got here. (...)

Military intervention can not overthrow the Venezuelan government

Military intervention can not overthrow the Venezuelan government

Bucharest (Romania) | 8 March 2019
While several Latin American states and US Special Forces seem to be preparing to attack Venezuela, Valentin Vasilescu examines the balance of power and topography. According to him, no form of invasion can defeat this vast country defended by a jungle, much larger than in Vietnam. Any intervention can only aim to destabilize the country, not to overthrow its government.

US Commentary on OPCW Report on Investigation into Chemical Weapons Use in Douma

US Commentary on OPCW Report on Investigation into Chemical Weapons Use in Douma

Washington D. C. (États-Unis) | 7 March 2019
The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons Fact-Finding Mission (FFM) released its final report on March 1, 2019, regarding its investigation into chemical weapons use in Douma, Syria, on April 7, 2018. The report concluded that there were reasonable grounds that chlorine was used as a chemical weapon in the attack. The FFM found that the weaponized chlorine was not manufactured at the sites, as alleged by the regime, and that it is possible that the chlorine was released by (...)

Italian special forces at Camp Darby

Rome (Italy) | 5 March 2019
The reorganisation of the US base Camp Darby (Italy) masks the transfer of special forces to US command. This system already existed in the past. It was this mechanism which enabled the creation of Gladio, the service for NATO’s secret actions in Italy. Since December 2015 (article 7bis of Law 198), the President of the Italian Council has the possibility of pursuing military operations by Intelligence operations. This news gives more weight to the hypothesis that we published two months ago – NATO is preparing a wave of attacks in Europe.

Iran fired Safir satellite with same launcher as Shahab-3 missiles

New York (USA) | 20 February 2019
I write to alert you to another alarming development concerning Iran’s ballistic missile activity this year. As commercial satellite imagery indicates, on 6 February, Iran launched a Safir satellite launch vehicle from the Imam Khomeini Space Center. This launch demonstrates blatant and utter disregard for the international community’s urgent call for Iran to cease this type of activity and is in clear violation of Security Council resolution 2231 (2015), as it passes the annex B threshold (...)

A secret clause that accompanies the Treaty of Aachen

A secret clause that accompanies the Treaty of Aachen

20 February 2019
According to the Germany weekly, Der Spiegel, Germany and France have signed a secret clause at the side of the Treaty of Aachen . It provides that neither party will oppose the sales of arms produced as a joint venture, except on grounds of national security.
Following the fall of Nazism, Germany has kept up its pacifist ideal and placed a strict ban on exporting arms to States that could use them for evil ends. However, during the Conference on Security that has just taken place in (...)

Transforming UK Defence to Meet the Global Threats of Tomorrow
Malcolm [Chalmers] thank you so much for having hosting this event here today at RUSI. It’s a real privilege and honour to be able to come along.
It’s important to start off by asking the question why do we fight? It is fundamentally, to protect our people, protect our interests, and, of course, to defend Britain.
As a nation, we’ve never shied away from acting even if that has meant standing alone as we did in the darkest hours (...)

High chance that Iran has built precision missiles in Syria

High chance that Iran has built precision missiles in Syria

9 February 2019
According to Israeli Channel 12, Iran has constructed a factory to build precision missiles at Safita, a district of Latakia (Syria).
The Israeli Press assumes that these missiles – if the information is correct – are meant for the Lebanese Resistance to use to threaten Tel-Aviv (which has attacked Lebanon several times and continues to violate its air space and territorial waters). This information comes just as the Guardians of the Iranian Revolution announced that they have Hoveizeh (...)

NATO Statement on Russia’s failure to comply with the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty

NATO Statement on Russia's failure to comply with the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty

Brussels (Belgium) | 1 February 2019
Following nearly six years of U.S. and Allied engagement with Russia, on 4 December 2018, NATO Allies declared that Russia has developed and fielded a missile system, the 9M729, which violates the INF Treaty, and poses significant risks to Euro-Atlantic security. Allies strongly supported the finding of the United States that Russia is in material breach of its obligations under the INF Treaty and called upon Russia to urgently return to full and verifiable compliance.
Since that (...)

Russian comment on the new US Missile Defence Review

Russian comment on the new US Missile Defence Review

Moscow (Russia) | 18 January 2019
A new Missile Defence Review was released by the United States on January 17. The content of this document is bound to evoke serious concern. It is openly confrontational and once again demonstrates Washington’s goal of achieving undivided military supremacy in the world and the ability to conduct with impunity military operations in defence of its interests in any part of the globe. In this context the document continues the policy described in the US National Security Strategy and the (...)

Iran used a Simorgh launcher

New York (USA) | 18 January 2019
I write to alert you of an alarming development regarding Iran’s ballistic missile activity. On 14 January, Iran launched a Simorgh missile satellite launch vehicle, carrying the Payam satellite, into space from the Imam Khomeini Space Center. This act of aggression was committed in clear violation of Security Council resolution 2231 (2015), passing the annex B threshold that prohibits Iran from engaging in ballistic missile activity. Despite the clear and unequivocal calls by the (...)

Iranian ballistic fire does not violate resolution 2231

New York (USA) | 14 January 2019
I am writing to you with reference to the letter dated 18 December 2018 from the Permanent Representatives of France, Germany and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General (S/2018/1171). Upon instruction from my Government, I would like to bring to your kind attention the following:
In the letter, a misleading reference was made once again to the Missile Technology Control Regime and, accordingly, the test-firing of a (...)

Anti-air protection fails to stop Israel bombing a target in Syria

Anti-air protection fails to stop Israel bombing a target in Syria

2 January 2019
Christmas Day (2018): Tsahal managed to bomb a target in Syria despite new anti-air protection. This is the second time that the aeronautical military is operating in Syria following the deployment of the S-300 missiles, state-of-the-art missiles and the coordination system: Polyana D4M1.
The Israeli planes fired missiles from Lebabon’s air space in the direction of an airport in the capital of Syria, just as the city was celebrating the birth of Christ for the first time since the end (...)

The Japanese Army is now as strong as it was in the Second World War

Bucharest (Romania) | 21 December 2018
Like Germany, Japan has recovered the right to hold a genuine army. But, in contrast to Berlin, which lacks modest plans, Tokyo has gradually built up specific military equipment and modern weapons that allow it to project itself as a military power, anywhere in the world.

Operation “Timber Sycamore” continues

Operation “Timber Sycamore” continues

14 December 2018
Operation “Timber Sycamore”, initiated by President Barack Obama was privatized a little before the election of President Donald Trump. It is now coordinated by the investment fund KKR (established by Henry Kravis and whose military activities are led by the former head of the CIA, General David Petraeus).
“Timber Sycamore” is the most important arms trafficking operation in History. It involves at least 17 governments. The transfer of weapons, meant for jihadist organizations, is carried out (...)
