Stop press news - US military bases in Europe put on high ‘terror attack’ alert – media (see below)

Marine Le Pen's National Rally (RASSEMBLEMENT NATIONAL) has won the majority of votes in France, after a snap election was called by Emmanuel Macron last month. There were celebrations across France with fireworks and bonfires and the "usual" waste bins set ablaze as the police tried to disperse the crowds. (I don't know why they were trying to disperse the crowds?) The police used tear gas and other anti-citizen dispersion force which wound the elated crowds up. Marine Le Pen gave an announcement speech, saying "the people have spoken"
After that Gabriel Attal (Macron's Prime Minister) gave a speech saying "we must stop the Rassemblement National from dominating and running the country with their nefarious plan it has in mind" (Recall something similar after the historic Rochdale election and Rishi Sunak as he inferred that George Galloway was responsible for all the problems that ail Britain simply because he was elected !!

Putin's visit to North Korea and Pres. Kim Jong-Un. Prof. Victor Gao comments, hoping that the US and it's allies will start to promote peace, not more war.
----
Protests in Israel turned violent last night as the crowds clashed with "security forces" (police?).

Short take: Paris burns as the National Rally party takes the lead in the French legislative elections. With President Macron’s defeat on the cards, the nation’s Prime Minister issues a stark warning. South Africa’s president names a new coalition cabinet, with the opposition making its debut in the new government after weeks of political wrangling. Ukraine is told by the IMF to crack down on its rampant corruption as the financial institution releases another tranche of aid to Kiev from its bailout package.

A) US military bases in Europe put on high ‘terror attack’ alert – media 1 Jul, 2024 04:25

The sites that have reportedly increased their security include the US European Command headquarters in Germany

All American military bases in Europe have been placed on high alert due to a potential terrorist threat against the facilities or personnel, several US media outlets reported on Sunday, citing sources at the Pentagon.

“There is credible intel pointing to an attack against US bases in Europe over the next week or so,” an unnamed official told Fox News.

According to the source, different installations, including the army garrison in Stuttgart, Germany, which hosts the US European Command, increased their threat posture to the so-called Force Protection ‘Charlie,’ which “applies when an incident occurs or intelligence is received indicating some form of terrorist action or targeting against personnel or facilities is likely.”

A threat level of this kind has not been activated “in at least 10 years,” a US official stationed at one of the bases told CNN, adding that it is generally applied when the military faces an “active-reliable threat.”

The US Army operates a system called Force Protection Condition (FPCON), which is designed “to counter terrorists or other hostile adversaries." Its threat levels are designated as Normal, Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Delta, with Charlie and Delta being the highest states of alert.

A spokesperson for US European Command Commander Dan Day declined to comment on the exact nature of the threat, saying that the Pentagon is “constantly assessing a variety of factors that play into the safety of the US military community abroad” and takes extra steps to ensure the safety of the service members.

“USEUCOM constantly monitors the security environment to ensure its personnel are informed and best postured to assure the safety of their individual person, family, and loved ones. As always, USEUCOM advises personnel in the European theater to remain vigilant and stay alert at all times,” he added, as quoted by CNN. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/06/30/politics/us-military-bases-europe-alert/index.html

While the details of what has triggered the alert remain unclear, European authorities have reportedly warned of a potential terrorist threat amid the ongoing soccer championship in Germany and the upcoming Olympic Games in France.

German authorities have deployed over 500 international police officers to assist with security during the tournament, with Interior Minister Nancy Faeser saying at the time that the country was preparing “for all conceivable dangers, from Islamist terror to violent criminals and hooligans.”

The French government has raised the national security system to the highest level as well, saying that officials are “actively monitoring terrorist threats from organized groups and radicalized individuals.”

1) Zelensky outlines model for talks with Russia 30 Jun, 2024 23:02

Intermediaries could help reach a lasting settlement with Moscow, the Ukrainian leader said

Kiev does not rule out future peace talks with Moscow but they can only be held through intermediaries, Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky told the Philadelphia Inquirer on Sunday. He suggested that the format used to broker the 2022 Black Sea grain deal could be useful for this purpose.

Kiev has previously refused to accept Russia’s terms as a basis of talks and accused Moscow of being incapable of good-faith negotiations. In late 2022, Zelensky even issued a decree, proclaiming the “impossibility” of holding talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Moscow, meanwhile, has maintained that it is ready to restart negotiations but only if Kiev renounces claims on the territories that have been acquired by Russia during the conflict. In autumn 2022, four former Ukrainian territories – the two breakaway Donbass republics and the regions of Kherson and Zaporozhye – formally joined Russia following a series of referendums. Ukraine has never recognized the voting results and continues to lay claim to these regions, as well as Crimea, which joined Russia following a similar referendum in 2014.

In his interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer, Zelensky said that Ukraine “can find a model” for a potential settlement with Russia. He pointed to the deal brokered two years ago by Türkiye and the UN that allowed the establishment of a corridor for agricultural exports from Ukrainian ports.

According to Zelensky, Ankara and the UN had signed separate agreements with Moscow and Kiev. “It worked,” he said, adding that the grain corridor then existed “long enough.”

Moscow and Kiev were close to reaching another grain deal in March, but Ukrainian negotiators abruptly walked away after two months of talks, according to Reuters.

Agreements on “territorial integrity, energy and freedom of navigation” could be struck between Moscow and Kiev in the same format, Zelensky stated. He suggested that other countries could be invited to mediate.”No one should say that it is … just Europe and the US,” he said, adding that nations from Asia, Africa, and South America should participate as well and help prepare the documents that would be presented to Moscow and Kiev.

“So far, there is only this model,” Zelensky said. He stressed, however, that the final agreement should “suit” Kiev and be based on Ukraine’s terms.

Zelensky has long sought to promote his own 10-point “peace formula,” most recently during the summit in Switzerland on June 15-16, which Russia did not attend. Moscow has flatly rejected Zelensky’s terms, insisting that the status of its newly acquired territories is non-negotiable. Putin further demanded in June that Kiev withdraw all troops from the parts of the four Russian regions it currently controls.

According to Putin, Ukraine must also renounce its plan to join NATO and become a neutral country, as well as limit the size of its army.

Despite rejecting Russia’s terms, Kiev has recently been signaling its willingness to end the fighting. In June, the deputy head of Vladimir Zelensky’s office, Igor Zhovkva, said that Ukraine wanted “peace as soon as possible.” Zelensky himself said last week that Kiev did not want to “prolong the war” and make it “last for years.”

2) National Rally set for historic election victory in France – exit poll 1 Jul, 2024 00:50

The right-wing party is projected to win the first round of the snap parliamentary election

The right-wing National Rally (RN) party is set to win the first round of the French snap parliamentary elections held on Sunday, exit polls show. The result is a stunning defeat for President Emmanuel Macron and his centrist Together (Ensemble) coalition

Macron called for an early vote following the poor performance of his Renaissance Party during the European Parliament election last month, when RN led by Jordan Bardella won the most seats allotted to France.

According to the projections released on Sunday night by pollsters Ipsos and Talan, RN and its allies are leading with 33.2% of the vote, followed by the left-wing New Popular Front bloc (28.1%). Macron’s coalition is third with 21%. The turnout rate was estimated at 65.5%, the highest France has seen in four decades.

According to the projections by Radio France Internationale (RFI), RN is poised to secure between 230 and 280 seats in the 577-member National Assembly, while an estimate for Macron’s bloc is between 70 and 100 seats.

RN supporters celebrated their win, as party leaders have urged them to “mobilize” for the second round of voting on July 7.

“The French people have almost wiped out the Macronist bloc,” said Marine Le Pen, RN’s former long-time leader who currently leads the party’s faction in parliament. “The second round will determine the [final] outcome,” she added, stressing that RN needs to win an absolute majority in order for Macron to nominate Bardella for prime minister.

Macron reacted to the upset by urging voters to “block the far right” and form a coalition to prevent RN from controlling the parliament.

“The time has come for a broad, unequivocally democratic and republican alliance for the second round,” Macron said on Sunday, noting that the high turnout has demonstrated “the importance of this election for all our compatriots and the desire to clarify the political situation.”

Prime Minister Gabriel Attal said that “not a single vote should go to National Rally,” arguing that the country “must stop” the right from gaining an absolute majority.

New Popular Front leader Jean-Luc Melenchon described Sunday’s results as a “heavy and undisputable” defeat of Macron’s alliance, but also urged the French people to unite against RN.

3) Hungary’s Orban announces new EU Parliament alliance 30 Jun, 2024 16:12

Three parties have created the Patriots for Europe to secure more influence for right-wing leaders

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has announced the creation of a new EU Parliament alliance, in cooperation with right-wing parties from Austria and the Czech Republic. The announcement comes a day before Budapest takes on the rotating six-month EU presidency.

The new group, presented as “Patriots for Europe” comprises Fidesz, the party led by Orban; the Czech Republic’s largest opposition bloc, ANO, chaired by the country’s former prime minister, Andrej Babis; and the Austrian Freedom Party (FPO), headed by Herbert Kickl.

“Today we are creating a political formation that I believe will very quickly become the largest faction of the European right-wing,” Orban said during a press briefing which was also attended by Babis and Kickl. The Hungarian leader expressed hope that the alliance would dominate the right of the EU’s political spectrum.

The bloc's policies must be altered in accordance with the results of the latest European Parliament elections, according to the Hungarian leader, who stressed that the current parliamentary groups will inevitably split.

The results of the election carried out on June 9 revealed that citizens across the 27-nation bloc had mostly shifted away from the left, although the performance of the right-wing and conservative parties varied from country to country. The ruling coalitions in Germany, France and Italy were effectively trounced by the right.

Orban’s Fidesz won 11 seats in the EU parliament, while FPO and ANO have six and seven seats respectively, with all three parties becoming strongest in their countries' elections.

In a statement to the media, the leaders of the three parties expressed hope that the new group would be joined by many other European parties in the coming days.

Hungary is set to take over the presidency of the Council of the European Union on July 1 and will remain in charge until the end of the year. During the period, Hungarian diplomats will chair meetings in Brussels and shape the EU’s political agenda.

Orban has faced sharp criticism in the EU for pursuing policies that run counter to those of Brussels. Since the beginning of the Ukraine conflict in 2022, Budapest has refused to provide weapons to Kiev, calling for a diplomatic solution instead, and has maintained economic ties with Russia. The prime minister had previously said that the results of the election had won time for the bloc and “slowed the train hurtling towards war.”

Hungary unveils MEGA slogan for EU presidency

Budapest aims to ‘Make Europe Great Again’ when it takes the reins next month

Hungary has revealed that the slogan for its upcoming presidency of the European Union will be ‘Make Europe Great Again’ (MEGA).

Observers immediately noted the similarity to the ‘Make America Great Again’ (MAGA) motto deployed by Donald Trump during his successful US presidential campaign in 2016.

Hungary is set to take over the presidency of the Council of the European Union on July 1 and will remain in charge until the end of the year. During the six-month period, Hungarian diplomats will chair meetings in Brussels and shape the EU’s political agenda.

Hungary’s minister for European Union Affairs, Janos Boka, told a press conference on Tuesday that the slogan refers to a proactive presidency and aims to show that “together we are stronger than apart,” according to local media.

Boka downplayed the similarity of Hungary’s motto to Trump’s, joking that “I am not aware that Donald Trump has ever wanted to make Europe great,” according to Agence France-Presse.

Hungary is taking over the EU reins in “a very difficult environment,” he added, citing “a war in our neighborhood” in reference to the Ukraine conflict. He also cited illegal immigration as another of the most pressing issues the region must deal with.

Boka went on to say that “we should be allowed to remain who we are when we come together,” according to Politico.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has faced criticism in the EU for pursuing policies that run counter to those of Brussels.

Since the start of the Ukraine conflict in 2022, Budapest has refused to provide weapons to Kiev, calling for a diplomatic solution instead, and has maintained economic ties with Russia.

Earlier this year, Orban flew to US to meet with Republican presidential frontrunner Trump. Following the talks, the Hungarian prime minister claimed that Trump had shown himself to be “pro-peace.” That stance puts him in alignment with Hungary, unlike the current US administration and many EU members, Orban added.

Trump, in turn, described Orban as a “fantastic” leader.

Hungary has also faced criticism in the EU for following its own migration policy in an apparent contradiction with the bloc’s rules. The European Court of Justice (ICJ) imposed a €200 million ($216 million) fine on Budapest last week for restricting access to international protection procedures and illegally removing third-country nationals.

Defending his stance on the Ukraine aid and immigration Orban has argued that his policies aim to defend the interests of the Hungarian people.

Hungary threatens EU over ‘insane’ migrant fine – media

The bloc’s top court has imposed a €200 million penalty on Budapest for “deliberately” violating refugee laws

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has threatened Brussels with retaliation after an EU court slapped Budapest with a €200 million ($216 million) fine over its asylum policy, according to national media.

The European Court of Justice (ICJ) imposed the penalty on the Orban government on Thursday, accusing it of “deliberately avoiding” compliance with the bloc’s refugee laws. The ICJ also ruled that Budapest must pay an extra fine of €1 million a day until it changes its policies.

Shortly after the ruling was announced, Orban took to social media to describe it as “outrageous and unacceptable.”

“It seems that illegal #migrants are more important to the Brussels bureaucrats than their own European citizens,” the prime minister said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

Orban also reportedly threatened retaliation in an interview with Radio Kossuth on Friday.

“We’ll figure out a way, so it hurts Brussels more than it hurts us,” the leader said, without elaborating, according to Hungarian news outlet Liner.hu and Bloomberg.

Obran described the fine as “a huge amount” and claimed that it was unprecedented. “It’s just insane,” Liner.hu quoted the prime minister as saying.

The ICJ ruling relates to a 2020 judgement that found that Hungary had restricted access to international protection procedures, unlawfully detained asylum seekers in transit, and illegally removed third-country nationals. Hungary has since closed transit zones but otherwise has not complied with the ruling, which “constitutes a serious threat to the unity of EU law,” the court said in a statement.

Hungary has taken a hard stance on migrants from outside the EU since the number of daily arrivals more than quadrupled during the migrant crisis of 2015, which saw over a million people arrive on the continent, mostly from Syria and Afghanistan. In September and October of that year, Hungary put up fences at its southern borders with Serbia and Croatia.

The standoff comes as Hungary is set to take over the EU presidency on July 1. Orban’s government has also consistently criticized the Western approach to the Ukraine conflict. Budapest has opposed NATO’s funding and arming of Ukraine, as well as the sweeping sanctions on Russia, instead calling for a ceasefire and diplomatic solution.

4) French authorities accused of ‘social cleansing’ before Olympics 30 Jun, 2024 20:12

A group of NGOs has accused the government of forcibly removing the homeless from Paris ahead of the 2024 Summer Games

The number of forcible eviction operations launched against squatters and people sleeping outside in the French capital has rapidly grown over the past year, more than 80 NGOs said in a report, blaming the practice on the upcoming Olympic Games which Paris is about to host.

Orders issued by the local and regional authorities allowing the forced dislodgement of squatters have more than tripled over the past three years in the Paris region, one such group monitoring evictions said, according to France 24. The group’s data show that there were only 15 such removals between May 2021 and April 2022, while between May 2023 and April 2024, there were almost 50.

An umbrella group called Le Revers de la Médaille (The Other Side of the Medal) claimed that authorities in Ile-de-France – the region that includes Paris and its suburbs – have a particularly “high propensity” to resort to such measures. It also accused the French government of what it called “social cleansing.”

“This acceleration in the pace of evictions and the offering of temporary housing coincides with the arrival of the Olympics,” Theo Ferignac, an activist with Law Access Collective, told France24. “These figures clearly show the desire to have as few homeless camps as possible in Paris this summer.”

According to France24, the authorities launched at least three major forced eviction operations in the Paris suburbs between April 2023 and April 2024 – each involving the displacement of hundreds of people, including the homeless, squatters and migrants.

The people who are displaced are encouraged to take buses provided by the authorities to move to other parts of France, the broadcaster reported. There, they are often housed in temporary reception centers with a maximum capacity of 50 people for a period of some three weeks. After that, they are just told to leave these shelters as well, France24 reported.

According to The Other Side of the Medal, some 3,958 out of the 6,000 homeless and squatters living in Ile-de-France in 2023 were moved to temporary reception centers in other regions. The practice caught the attention of the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Housing, Balakrishnan Rajagopal. “How does France justify this?” he wrote on X (formerly, Twitter) in April.

The French authorities have consistently denied that the evictions had anything to do with the Olympics. “This emergency accommodation policy aims to spread the burden across the country ... Operations of this type are carried out regularly, it's not dictated by the Olympic and Paralympic agenda,” French Sports Minister Amelie Oudea-Castera said in March.

The Paris mayor’s office pointed to the overburdened emergency accommodation system in the French capital. The number of people without accommodation in Paris has grown by a “worrying” 16% since 2023, it told France24.

Other regions did not appreciate the government’s policy either. “It's more a case of displacing the problem rather than solving it,” said Strasbourg's deputy mayor Floriane Varieras. “The problem of homelessness is not going to be solved just by ‘regional temporary shelters’.”

5) US to unblock bomb shipments to Israel – Axios 30 Jun, 2024 14:56

The IDF will receive a large batch of 500-pound bombs in two weeks, the outlet’s sources claim

The US has decided to release a shipment of 1,800 bombs to Israel that was suspended several months ago amid concerns over destruction in the Gazan city of Rafah, Axios reported on Thursday.

According to unnamed US and Israeli officials who spoke with the news site, the administration of US President Joe Biden is willing to send a batch of 500-pound (226kg) bombs that were put on hold in April. At the time, US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin cited Israel’s failure to heed warnings that it “shouldn’t launch a major attack into Rafah without accounting for and protecting the civilians that are in that battle space.”

Axios suggested the unfreezing means the US is now less worried that Israel could use those bombs in Gaza, as it seeks to improve relations with its key Middle East ally, which had been strained since the start of the Israel-Hamas war last October. The bombs are reportedly due to be delivered in two weeks, after Israel’s operation in Rafah is over.

US and Israeli officials are still in talks on another part of the shipment that includes 1,800 2,000-pound (900kg) bombs, the report said. Axios also noted that negotiations on releasing arms to Israel were delayed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s public jabs at Washington on the matter.

On Friday, Reuters reported that since the start of the Israel-Hamas war, the US has provided Israel with a total of 14,000 of the 2,000-pound bombs, 6,500 500-pound bombs, 3,000 Hellfire missiles, and other munitions. Washington has also sent $6.5 billion in security assistance since October 7.

The hostilities between Israel and the Gaza-based militant group Hamas have so far claimed the lives of more than 37,000 Palestinians and 1,400 Israelis, while causing unprecedented destruction and a humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

REPOST 19 Jun, 2024

6) Fewer and fewer Westerners are buying the ‘Atlanticism’ idea

A recent poll has shown a growing number of people in the US and Western Europe are tired of NATO’s professed goals

As a political de-facto entity, the post-Cold War West has always struggled to articulate a common purpose. The underlying cause of this difficulty is that the real existing (as opposed to the ideologically imagined) West – despite appeals to historical, cultural, and value commonalities – is defined by geopolitics. It emerged out of World War II as a sphere of Cold War US domination and hegemony, especially in Western Europe. The declared purpose – subservience to US empire? This is not the kind of thing that lends itself to open acknowledgement.

The reach of this American empire, dating back to at least 1823 – the year of the original if somewhat casual announcement of the Monroe Doctrine – has, of course, not been restricted to this West. Ask those it bruised, bought, subjugated, and often killed in South America, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. But the West is special, in that it holds a particularly important and privileged position. Some American strategists – such as the late, Polish-born Zbigniew Brzezinski – have made a fetish out of arguing that without Ukraine, Russia cannot be an empire. While it is by no means clear that post-Cold War Russia wants an empire (not the same as a sphere of influence), it is certain that the US cannot be one without its hold over Europe – that is, the Atlantic edge of the Eurasian ‘heartland’.

And yet, when the Cold War ended, there was no conceivable good security reason for European states to remain subservient to the US. The Soviet Union and its Eastern European military alliance – the Warsaw Pact, an organization that President Joe Biden can now only remember as “that other outfit” – were gone, and the EU, with all its flaws, could have provided an institutional basis for establishing an autonomous European power bloc second to none in the world.

There would have been no need for abrupt economic or, for that matter, political disruption either. Ideally, Europe could have maintained a cooperative-competitive relationship with the US, while gradually but persistently transforming it into one between equals. Now, a third of a century after the end of the Soviet Union, we should be living in that kind of world. If the end of the Cold War liberated Eastern Europe from Soviet hegemony, it should also have ended American hegemony in Western Europe, too. Instead, it brought that hegemony to almost all of Europe.

For Western European elites – most of all in Paris and Berlin (London would always have been a spoiler) – failed abysmally at what Bismarck called “seizing the mantle of history.” Rather than responding to a fundamental geopolitical shift with a strategy of their own and in Europe’s interests, they held tight to Washington and – with few, ultimately irrelevant exceptions – obediently followed its power-drunk elites into their ‘unipolar moment’ delusions, including catastrophic interventions in the Middle East and the expansion of NATO.

Ironically, the main result of this pusillanimous non-strategy was to produce the world of conflict and extremely high tension that we see now. If Europe had acted as a balancer between the US on one side, and Russia and China on the other, it could have made a decisive contribution to making Washington more rational, and ultimately, smoothing the inevitable transition to a multipolar world.

The Europeans could, for instance, have stopped the reckless dead-end policy of offering a NATO membership perspective to Georgia and Ukraine. They knew it was dangerous, which is why they objected at the Bucharest meeting in 2008. But then, of course, they caved. The result: Two wars, one (Georgia) short and lost, the other (Ukraine) long, ongoing, devastating, and with the real potential to go first regional and then global.

This brings us to the present. The ‘unipolar moment’ which never really was is well and truly over. Russia has the upper hand in the Ukraine conflict, that is, the single most hubristic and risky undertaking of the post-Cold War West. If in 2022, Westerners mused about how Moscow could possibly quit the war without a catastrophic loss of face, that shoe is now on the other foot. It is hard to see how the West can wind down its proxy war without suffering unprecedentedly severe damage from a combination of mutual blame-game recrimination and loss of credibility.

Against this background, the New York-based Institute for Global Affairs of the Eurasia Group geopolitical consulting firm has published a report, based on representative polling, that points to some important divergences within the West. As the authors of the report acknowledge, their sample of the West is limited to the US, France, Germany, and Great Britain, and the European states were “selected for their geopolitical influence and geostrategic importance to the US,” even though they are “not especially representative of Europe – or even Western Europe – as a whole.”

While the polls were conducted according to professional standards and much of the accompanying commentary is reasonably factual, ideological bias should also be considered. Eurasia Group is deeply in sync with American geopolitics. The dissidents’ voice this is not, as attentive readers can guess, for instance, from the grotesquely cautious phrasing of a question about Israel’s atrocities in Gaza – respondents are coyly asked if they feel that what Israel is doing ‘resembles’ war crimes. Sure, the way Al Capone ‘resembled’ a mafia don.

Yet the mainstream angle of a survey that also comes with lofty rhetoric about the ‘rules-based order’ and ‘beacons of liberal democracy’ makes signs of divergence and dissonance within the West only more pertinent. While the report covers much ground – including attitudes toward ‘democracy’, China, and Israel – two points stand out with regard to the relationship between the US and its Western European clients. First, the polls found majorities in all four countries surveyed in favor of a negotiated end to the Ukraine war. Second, they revealed that many European respondents distrust the US.

Regarding the Ukraine conflict, there “is broad transatlantic support for urging a negotiated settlement to end” it. Note the details here. These respondents are not simply articulating a desire for peace. Rather, they believe that Western governments should push Kiev to accept a compromise. Across the US and the three European countries, the three factors shaping the respondents’ positions the most are their concern to avoid “escalation to a wider regional war that draws in other European countries,” to avoid “direct war between nuclear-armed powers,” and to prevent “the further suffering of the Ukrainian people.”

Importantly, positions associated with the declared policies and propaganda of both Ukraine and Western governments did badly. Compare, for instance, 38% of American and 47% of European respondents in favor of “avoiding escalation to a wider regional war,” against 17% in the US and 22% in Europe who still believe in “fully restoring the pre-2022 invasion borders of Ukraine” (already excluding Crimea, incidentally, and thus a more moderate position than Kiev’s official war aims). And the answering options: “deterring strong autocratic countries from invading weaker democratic neighbors,” and “weakening Russia to punish it for its aggression” – classics of anti-Russian information war – found even less agreement.

Concerning European attitudes toward the US, there is a preponderant consensus – shared, as it happens by the US respondents – that Europe should either “be primarily responsible for its own defense, while aiming to preserve the NATO alliance with the United States” (the majority view) or even “manage its own defense and seek a more neutral relationship with the United States.” In France, Germany, and Great Britain, 86-93% of respondents chose one of these two options. On the other side, only 8-13% opted for “The United States should be primarily responsible for Europe’s defense.”

Clearly, many Europeans do not like their massive dependence on Washington. While many of them want a cooperative relationship, including NATO, they would prefer a Europe that could take care of itself. Others want that and, in addition, more distance from America, and while this is a minority view, those minorities are substantial. Even in Great Britain, which traditionally is especially close to the US, 17% are for more neutrality toward Washington; in Germany, 25%, and in France, once the home of Gaullism, 31%.

One reason for these attitudes is that Europeans do not trust the US very much. While a majority still believes that Washington’s commitment to its security obligations is either ‘somewhat’ (46%) or ‘very reliable’ (6%), almost as many respondents think the opposite: 36% see America as ‘somewhat’ and 10% as ‘very unreliable’. In Germany, the share of the skeptics approaches – and in France reaches – 50%.

The survey’s authors speculate that these results could reflect anxiety over a future Trump presidency or “be connected to a perception of a longer-term decline in America’s status as the sole superpower in a unipolar world.” In reality, both factors are likely to play a role. More importantly, in the long run, this is a distinction that will not make a difference. Donald Trump’s isolationism (for want of a better term) is a symptom of America’s decline. As is sometimes the case, the disruptive candidate is merely the one uncouth enough to draw the inevitable conclusions in public.

It is ironic but also telling that this survey bears the title ‘The New Atlanticism’. Ironic, because if anything, it shows that Atlanticism is tired. Telling, because it raises an obvious question: What is this rather ersatz ‘ism’, haplessly named after an ocean? The authors would probably answer that it has something to do with history, liberal democracy, individualism, the rule of law, civil society, etc. But even if we accept at face value – for the sake of argument – these simple ideological memes and Western self-idealizations, how do they add up to a relationship in which the US keeps subordinating Europe?

Indeed, these high ideals contradict the brute realities of American empire. In that sense, Atlanticism is what modern ideologies usually are – a fundamentally dishonest story rationalizing the powers-that-be. The most interesting thing about this survey is the evidence that even now, exposed to intense and systematic fearmongering, substantial numbers of Western Europeans are not fully persuaded by this story.

REPOST - part 2 from 14 Jun, 2024

6a) Russia and NATO are drifting towards a major war

It’s not impossible that the Ukraine conflict could eventually lead to a nuclear conflict, in which there will be no winners (By Ivan Timofeev, programme director of the Valdai Club.)

Is it possible that NATO forces could become directly involved in the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine? Until recently, such a question seemed very hypothetical given the high risks of escalation of the military confrontation between the US-led bloc and Russia into a large-scale armed conflict. But this scenario should be taken seriously now.

The direct participation of individual NATO countries or the entire bloc in hostilities could gradually spiral out of control. Crossing red lines can lead to the belief that there will be no consequences for engaging in war. The result of such movements can manifest itself at an unexpected moment and lead to a much more dangerous situation than the current one.

Strictly speaking, NATO countries have long been involved in the conflict. This takes several forms.

First, Western countries provide Kiev with substantial financial and military assistance, including increasingly advanced and destructive weapons systems. As the stockpiles of Soviet-style kit in the arsenals of the USSR’s former allies in the Warsaw Treaty Organisation have been depleted, the Ukrainian army is receiving more Western systems and ammunition. So far, mass deliveries have been limited by the production capacity of the Western defence industry and size of existing stockpiles. But if hostilities are prolonged, industrial capacity has the potential to grow. Increasing supplies are also inevitable in the event of a peaceful pause, which would allow Ukraine to prepare for a new phase of hostilities. Russia can hardly hope that the West lacks the political will and resources to increase support for Kiev. Moscow appears to be preparing for the worst-case scenario, namely a steady increase in substantial and long-term military assistance to Ukraine. In addition to the supply of arms and ammunition, this aid includes the training of personnel, help with the development of military industry and infrastructure, and the reimbursement of expenses in other areas that allow Ukraine to focus its resources on the defence sector.

Second, Ukraine receives extensive Western support in the form of intelligence, including technical data from satellites, radars, reconnaissance aircraft, etc. The information received enables a wide range of operations, from scoping the theatre of operations to the identification of specific targets. Data providers can be selective in granting the Ukrainian side access. But its use in military operations against Russia is not in doubt.

Third, military specialists who are citizens of NATO countries are involved in combat operations. Their role does not always appear to be official. They may be ‘volunteers’ or simply mercenaries, whose participation the authorities of their countries turn a blind eye to. Russian estimates put their number at around 2,000 in October 2023. Whether that is accurate or not, it’s clear that foreigners are fighting on Ukraine’s side, that their participation is systematic rather than accidental, and that at least some of them are citizens of Western countries.

Their involvement has not yet created an excessive risk of direct military confrontation between Russia and NATO. For Kiev’s Western partners, the sluggish pace of the conflict allows them to gradually improve the quality of their support for Ukraine. Cruise missile deliveries have long been commonplace. The arrival of US fighter jets is only a matter of time. The Russian army is “grinding down” the Western equipment that arrives. But foreign supplies to Ukraine also require a concentration of resources on the Russian side.

A significant escalation factor that would amplify the risk of a direct clash between Russia and NATO, could be the appearance of military contingents form bloc members on the territory of Ukraine. The prospect of such a scenario has already been mentioned by some Western politicians, although their view has not been supported by the US and isn’t an official NATO position. A number of the bloc’s leaders have distanced themselves from supporting the idea of sending troops to Ukraine.

What might trigger such a decision and how might it be implemented? The most likely factor for direct intervention by individual states or NATO as a whole would be a possible major military success by the Russian army. So far, the front has remained relatively stable. But the Moscow's military has already achieved significant local victories, increased pressure, seized the initiative, extended the offensive front and possibly built up reserves for more decisive action.

There are no signs of a repeat of last year’s Ukrainian counteroffensive. Kiev is reportedly short of ammunition, although this shortfall could be filled in the future by external supplies. Periodic attacks on Russian territory with cruise missiles, drones and artillery cause damage and casualties, but do not disrupt the stability of the front.

Moreover, such strikes embolden Russia's determination to create buffer zones, i.e. territories from which Kiev will not be able to attack targets in Russian regions.

A possible collapse of certain sections of the Ukrainian front and significant territorial advances of Russian forces towards the west is becoming more and more realistic scenario.

The fact that no deep advances and breakthroughs have occured for some time does not mean that there is no possibility in the future. On the contrary, thire probability is increasing due to the army’s experience in combat, the supply of the military-industrial complex to the front, losses on the Ukrainian side, delays in the delivery of Western equipment, and so on.

The Russian army’s ability to make such advances and breakthroughs is also increasing. A catastrophic scenario for individual Ukrainian groups is not predetermined, but it is probable. A major breakthrough of the Russian army towards Kharkov, Odessa or another major city could become a serious trigger for NATO countries to introduce the question of intervention in the conflict into practical terms. Several such breakthroughs, simultaneous or successive, will inevitably raise the issue.

Here, individual countries and the bloc as a whole face a strategic fork in the road. The first option is not to intervene and to support Ukraine only with military equipment, money and ‘volunteers’. Perhaps to admit defeat and try to minimise the damage through negotiations, thereby preventing an even greater catastrophe. The second option is to radically change the approach to involvement in the conflict and allow direct intervention.

Intervention can take a number of forms. It may involve the use of infrastructure, including airfields of NATO countries. It could mean the mass deployment of certain communications and engineering units and air defence systems, while avoiding their presence on the front line. An even more radical scenario is the deployment of a contingent of certain NATO countries on the border between Ukraine and Belarus. Finally, an even more radical option is the deployment of military contingents from NATO countries on the front line, which would probably be categorically unacceptable to the bloc.

Each of these scenarios involves a direct clash between Russian and NATO forces. Such a situation would inevitably raise the question of deeper bloc involvement and, in the longer term, the transfer of military conflict to other areas of contact with Russia, including the Baltic region. At this stage, it will be even more difficult to stop the escalation. The more losses both sides suffer, the more the maelstrom of hostilities will grow and the closer they will come to the threshold of using nuclear weapons. And there will be no winners.

These are all hypothetical options. But they need to be considered now. After all, not so long ago such significant military deliveries to Ukraine seemed unlikely to anyone, as much as the conflict itself, three years ago. Now it is an everyday reality. The dangers of movement towards a major war between Russia and NATO should be taken seriously.

Republicans Sound The Alarm As Party's Fundraising Completely Dries Up

,The Republican Party is sounding the alarms about their pathetic fundraising efforts, warning their voters in an email that things are getting really bad for the Party. Typically, you could write off such a warning as a scare tactic to get people to donate, but the truth is that the GOP is in serious financial trouble as the election gets closer. The national party has less than $9 million in cash on hand, and Democrats are raising more money than they know what to do with. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

In a fundraising pitch of just a few days ago, Republicans started to sound the alarm bells about how pathetic their fundraising has been so far in this election cycle. The message that they posted on social media, which was also sent out in an email, I believe, says, here's the honest truth. Things aren't looking too good for Republicans. The Democrats are out raising us. They will be able to buy ads in markets we can't afford, and they will outspend us. We are gearing up for the election of our lifetime. Now, typically, campaign fundraising emails do use scare tactics, right? Whenever these people, whether it's through text messages, phone calls, emails, or posts on social media, they always make it sound like, oh God, we're in dire financial straits. You gotta give us money, right? So that's not out of the ordinary, except for the fact that this one time the Republicans are actually telling the truth. I know it's shocking, right? Republicans telling us the truth. But that is what's happening here because the Republican party right now has $8.7 million cash on hand. I'm not talking about a candidate has 8.7 cash on hand. I'm talking about the Republican Party of the United States has $8.7 million in a presidential election year, in a year where they're not only trying to retake the White House, but retake the Senate and maintain control of the House of Representatives, they got less than $9 million. That is pathetic. Now, Avi, if I had $9 million, you'd never hear from me again. But for a national political party to only have $9 million, that's a bad thing, especially when the Biden campaign raised $42 million in January alone, you guys are getting clobbered. So this pitch from the Republican party, like, oh no, the Democrats are beating us. That's not just them trying to get people to donate. That is them legitimately freaking out because they don't have the money. Donald Trump doesn't have the money to run his campaign. Add to that, the fact that you have the chair of the Republican Party itself, Ronna McDaniel, she's resigning in an election year. That's not something that typically happens. So you have no leadership at the party. When you do eventually get new leadership during an election year, it's gonna be somebody that does not have the experience of running a national party. They don't get a honeymoon period where they can try to figure things out for a couple months and okay, we don't have any elections to worry about. So let me get my, let me get my footing here. No, they're gonna take over the Republican party at a time when it's near bankrupt in the middle of a massive election year that is setting up whoever it is for failure, And it's probably gonna be Michael Watley, the chair of the South Carolina Republican Party, along with Donald Trump's daughter law, Laura Trump. So on top of not having time to get their footing underneath them, you're also gonna be putting somebody in there who, one has no experience running a political party in Laura Trump, and two already promised to give all the parties money to Donald Trump. So, yikes, right? I mean, if I were a Republican donor, I wouldn't give them any money knowing that that's what's gonna happen to it. And that's why they're so freaked out today. They know that they don't have enough cash on hand, and they know that the turmoil inside their party in an election year is about to turn off nearly every major donor that they have left.

Get Ready for it, Tonight, Saturday, March 2nd, at 7pm CST, we will be LIVE with a TRULY AMAZING Show where Colleen and I take you thru a Replay of the Events in Dallas, on November 22nd, 1963, where EVERYTHING Falls into Place when you Approach this Monumental Event as a FAKE Assassination, Planned by the White Hats, who are Largely the Freemasons…Remember, the Alleged Assassinations of both JFK (Dallas) and RFK (Los Angeles) took place on the Thirty Third Parallel (33), and JFK’s event was on November 22nd, thus, November is the 11th Month, thus, 11, 22, and on the Thirty Third Parallel is 33…and 11 + 22 + 33 = 66 which is the Journey of Mankind to Find God in Heaven Upon Earth...

I won’t go into great details here about the Show, however, I can say this, we will PROVE this Groundbreaking Allegation by simply Answering Questions regarding Who and What was Involved and or/used during the Fake Assassination, and that the Answers to these Questions will Tie Everything Together, Proving that the Freemasons Orchestrated this CRUCIAL Event in Mankind’s History, Opening the Door for the Q Military Operation to Begin Giving the White Hats a HUGE Advantage in this War against the Canaanites, as Now the White Hats had their OWN Shadow Government on Earth, that the Canaanites did NOT even Know Existed, in Charge of the MOST Important Institutions on Earth, that the Canaanites believed they had under their Control, namely, The Military, the CIA, the FBI, the NSA, the Secret Service, the Treasury Departments, NASA and the Russian Space Program, NATO, NORAD, Hollywood, The Television Networks (ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, FOX, CNN), Mainstream News, the Music Industry, the Book Industry, and EVEN the Royal Families…

"JFK Movie - Mr. X identified as as Chief of Special Operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President John F. Kennedy, Colonel Leroy Fletcher Prouty.

Between 1946--49 he was assigned by the U.S. Army to Yale University, where he also taught, to begin the first USAF ROTC program. From 1950--52 he transferred to Colorado Springs to establish Air Defense Command. From 1952--54 he was assigned to Korean War duties in Japan where he served as Military Manager for Tokyo International Airport (Haneda) during the US Occupation.

From 1955--1964 he was assigned to U.S. Air Force Headquarters where he directed the creation of an Air Force worldwide system for "Military Support of the Clandestine Operations of the CIA", as required by a new National Security Council Directive, 5412 of March, 1954. As a result of a CIA Commendation for this work he was awarded the Legion of Merit by the US Air Force, and was promoted to Colonel being assigned to the Office of the Secretary of Defense.

With the creation of the Defense Intelligence Agency by Secretary McNamara and the abolishment of the OSO, he was transferred to the Office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to create a similar, worldwide office and was the Chief of Special Operations, with the Joint Staff all during 1962--1963.

Why Does Microsoft Even Want to Associate With Satanic Ritual Cults and Marina Abramović?

Microsoft’s ‘news’ sites fail to heed the warning or the toxicity (bad publicity) associated with Marina Abramović and they promote Microsoft’s proprietary software using not only militarism (goggles for the Army) but borderline cannibalism

What does Microsoft have in common with Satanic ‘spirit cooking’ rituals?

Watch what has just been promoted as a “World Tour” in MSN? It’s promoted shamelessly in a Microsoft site (MSN is fully controlled by Microsoft), which does marketing and propaganda for the company rather than objective news.

One reader asked us: “Ever hear of “spirit cooking”?”

“If not, read up on what came of the Podesta Emails via Wikileaks and then check this out.”

“I wrote a lot about this as soon as Podesta E-mails came out,” I responded, though “I didn’t take that to be or to mean what some people claim it to be… but it showed how debased, irrational and bloodthirsty some people are. They think these cults are entertainment…

“Maybe they just got bored of their yachts and stuff…”

For those who don’t know, these silly rituals, which involve blood and breast milk (from humans) — sometimes even parts of carcasses like animal skulls — are beyond bizarre. They’re described as performances, but any members of the public who are amused by sticking pins and consuming blood (or milk intended for babies) or whatever the hell they do probably need to visit a psychiatrist to have their heads examined.

The only surprising thing is that Microsoft is willing to associate itself with that occult lunacy to promote its proprietary software products*. Unreal! Maybe they’ll name a successor to Vista 10 “Windows Epstein Edition” as an homage to a close friend of Bill Gates.

* These products have failed in the market, so Microsoft will settle for anything to create the false perception of widespread use.

An advert for the HoloLens 2 headset, featuring artist Marina Abramović, mysteriously disappeared from Youtube after having been uploaded by Microsoft on April 10. Now, the link listed on Google to Microsoft’s page dedicated to Abramović’s art is redirecting to their more general page of arts initiatives...

https://www.happening.media/category/magazine/en/news/5e9ae6e6d98328327144570d/right-wing-lash-back-over-satanism-leads-to-microsoft-delete-ad-featuring-marina-abramovi

Backlash: satanism leads Microsoft to delete ad featuring Marina Abramović

Combining digital imagery with the real world, the HoloLens 2 uses mixed reality to allow users to keep their surroundings in view whilst experiencing the images produced by the headset.

The advert, which Microsoft did not deny had been deleted, featured Abramović discussing her new work in the mixed reality medium — The Life — as well as a demonstration of the piece and an interview with a representative from Christie’s auction house (who have plans to sell The Life for over $775,000 in October).

When users view the piece through the headset, they see Abramović slowly walking around in the red dress from her acclaimed 2010 performance The Artist is Present, with digital effects causing her image to blink. “I believe that art of the future is art without objects.

This is just pure transmission of energy between the viewer and the artist,” Abramović says in the ad.

So why was the video taken down? Of the 24,000 ‘dislikes’ on the video before it was deleted, many flooded in following a post on far-right blogger Alex Jones’ Infowars, which tries to tie the video to allegations of Satanism that arose from right-wing internet users in 2016, despite the piece making no direct reference to the cult.

Allegations arose surrounding the 2016 U.S. election, largely based on a leaked email from Abramović to Tony Podesta (art collector and brother of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign chairman, John Podesta), inviting him to a performance of her 1997 work Spirit Cooking, which features paintings made from pigs’ blood. Reacting to the book of recipes containing instructions of violence to accompany the piece, right-wing outlet claimed that the work implicated the artist and the Podestas in a sex cult.

WikiLeaks reveal that Hillary Clinton’s right-hand man, John Podesta — and his Clinton-bundler D.C. lobbyist brother Tony — are good friends with Marina Abramovic

Liberal elite rings who think “Spirit Cooking” and blood mixtures painted on golems (clay figures used during religious ceremonies) is normal = non-story.

Earlier this week I was sifting through WikiLeaks files when I ran across an invitation from Tony Podesta to his brother John to attend a “Spirit Cooking” dinner with Ms. Abramovic (i.e., the lady who gets upset on Twitter when she’s accused of being into satanic rituals despite creating an @AbramovicM666 account).

“Are you in NYC Thursday July 9 Marina wants you to come to dinner Mary?” — Tony Podesta, June 28, 2015.

“Dear Tony, I am so looking forward to the Spirit Cooking dinner at my place. Do you think you will be able to let me know if your brother is joining? All my love, Marina.” — Marina Abramovic, June 25, 2015.

These people are obviously good friends

This is how you speak with your inner circle

Therefore, it is newsworthy that someone who will literally be able to whisper in the ear of the commander in chief if Hillary Clinton is elected president hangs out with freaks.

Here is what the New York Times said of Abramovic on Nov. 1:

“You will need to be able to withstand a great deal of conversation about clairvoyants and tarot cards and didgeridoos and kundalini life forces and monks and gurus and ‘how the soul can leave the body through the center of the fontanel of the head’ to make it very far in this memoir. …

Abramovic reports in ‘Walk Through Walls’ that under the right circumstances, she can foresee world events,” the newspaper wrote. “‘I dreamed of an earthquake in Italy: 48 hours later, there was an earthquake in southern Italy. I had a vision of someone shooting the Pope: 48 hours later, someone tried to shoot Pope John Paul II.’”

Ask yourself this question:

Who are your friends and what do you guys do on the weekend?

Do you fill tubs with blood-like goo and naked women and then eat from their bodies, or do you go to a steakhouse and have fun over a few beers?

Ask yourself this question: Why does Hillary Clinton’s inner circle include Anthony Weiner — a man who is under FBI investigation for sexual messages to a teenage girl; Bill Clinton (need I say more?); and people who think Marina Abramovic’s naked self-mutilation and occult “art” is normal?

I wrote a story on this subject for work, but not a single mainstream media outlet covered it. They ignored it.

They shunned it, ironically, like the devil. Meanwhile, Twitter and YouTube and other social media platforms exploded with “Spirit Cooking” trends. The traffic for the story was through the roof — and yet, silence.

People like Katie Pavlich over at Townhall, one of the few writers who addressed it, tried to torpedo the story entirely using giant straw-man arguments.

Because Ms. Pavlich felt Infowars likened Mr. Podesta to a “blood sucking, hair eating devil worshipper,” then ipso facto there was nothing to cover.

Wrong.

You can tell a lot about a man by who his close friends are, and it speaks volumes that the Podestas receive “all my love” messages from a woman who thinks it’s normal to get naked in front of strangers and cut herself, or to create “aphrodisiac” recipes that require “fresh urine” and “fresh sperm milk” for “earthquake nights.”

For Townhall writers like Ms. Pavlich, it apparently means nothing that Ms. Abramovic a.) sees herself as a mystic, b.) says that performing her rituals at home makes “magic” possible, and c.) told artist James Franco that she hates the studio and loves to “perform” at home.

“If you are doing the occult magic in the context of art or in a gallery, then it is art. If you are doing it in a different context, in spiritual circles or private house or on TV shows, it is not art.” — Marina Abramovic on question about magic via Reddit interview.

Move along. Move along. Nothing to see here.

Oh, and did I mention that the artist now says she called the “Spirit” dinner that because “we just call things funny names”?

What are all the chances that out of all the “funny” names she could have picked, she used “Spirit Cooking dinner”?

rebel-media-spirit-cooking

And here is what she told Mr. Franco:

“I hate studio, to start with. Studio is a trap. Studio is the worst place — the artist should never be [there]. The art comes from life — not from studio.” — Marina Abramovic to James Franco via Wall Street Journal interview, December 2009.

The mainstream media is filled with a bunch of people who are obsessed about losing their place within “The Inner Ring” that C.S. Lewis spoke about years ago.

The mainstream media are terrified about what will happen if they cover an explosive story about Hillary Clinton’s inner circle and then she is elected president. That is why CNN and others had to be dragged kicking and screaming to cover WikiLeaks, FBI investigations into the former secretary of state, and the “pay-for-play” corruption of The Clinton Foundation.

But hey, maybe I’m wrong and the Podesta brothers’ buddy-buddy relationship with Marina “Eat the Pain” Abramovic is not worth your time.

– Satanism: A Social History (Leiden: Brill) – I regard the accusation as ridiculous. I recently participated in a session in a conference at the University of Belgrade about the esotericism of Marina Abramovič. There may be different opinions on her esoteric method, but one thing is sure: it has nothing to do with Satanism.
Abramovič is part of a larger contemporary artistic tradition that sees artistic performance as spirituality and healing. This tradition perhaps starts with the paintings of Mondrian and Malevich and in more recent times is well represented by artists within the Italian movement of Arte Povera such as Michelangelo Pistoletto, who wrote a manifesto for a new religious proposal he calls omnitheism. For these artists, the question whether a certain performance is art or spirituality does not make sense. It is both, and in fact art is perceived as a form of spirituality in itself.
Abramovič’s great-uncle was the Patriarch of the Serbian Orthodox Church, so we cannot rule out the Christian element in the formation of her spirituality. However her parents were both staunch Communists and her father was part of the insider circle of the Yugoslavian Communist regime. However, recent scholarship confirmed that within the Yugoslavian Communist Party there were seriously cultivated esoteric and parapsychological interests, although they were not officially acknowledged. Even after the fall of the regime within the Serbian Army there was something called “Group 69” trying to use parapsychological weapons against the enemies of Serbia. It was a curious mixture of Communism and then post-Communism, Serbian nationalism, and esotericism. This is the milieu where Marina was raised.
She always claimed that their performances have a healing content. In a more discrete way, in less public activities, she elaborated what she called the Abramovič Method, which heals through something that is, again, artistic performance and ritual at the same time. The method uses quartz, crystal, and other sacred stones, magnets, a search for the Earth’s energy lines, and old Eastern techniques such as counting the grains of rice.

Abramovič is also interested in Santeria and cooperated with the Brazilian Spiritualist healer John of God and actually served as a Spiritualist medium during some of John’s services.
The teaching was more or less secret for decades, and Abramovič had also private clients for lessons in the Method, including Lady Gaga. More recently, the Method is becoming more public, and the artist is also creating a lineage of sort of teachers authorized by her, including her long-time assistant Lynsey Peisinger.
As for the “Spirit Cooking” performances, I see them dismissed in these hours as just tongue-in-check jokes, as Abramovič created performances where she wrote strange recipes with pig blood on the walls. The recipes were admittedly surrealistic, but for the insiders Abramovič was also alluding, sometimes in an ironic way, to various Western and Eastern esoteric traditions, without necessarily approving them.
Again, this is not Satanism. A Satanist group is a group worshiping the character called the Devil or Satan in the Bible. It doesn’t matter whether they regard Satan as a metaphor or a symbol (as in Anton LaVey’s Church of Satan) or a real sentient being (as, perhaps, in the Order of the Nine Angles, which may well be the largest Satanist group today). The focus of the ritual interaction should be Satan. In the Abramovič Method, worship of Satan plays no role whatsoever.
666 and other “sinister” symbols are used by Abramovič in a rather playful way, occasionally as a pun on fundamentalist/evangelical criticism seeing all occultism and esotericism and satanic. Actually, within the larger genus of esoteric and occult movements, Satanism is a species – an interesting tradition involving perhaps 1% of all existing esoteric/occult groups. But for certain evangelical counter-cult groups all esoteric traditions are Satanist, which is of course nonsensical. A few days ago, on October 23, Jack Chick died at age 92. I am grateful to him for having accepted to be interviewed by me several years ago. He was the quintessential evangelical fundamentalist who regarded all brands of occultism, esotericism, or New Age as satanic. He even denounced parents allowing their children to participate in Halloween as crypto-Satanist. I wrote several articles about how paradoxical it is to see even some Catholics spreading Chick’s ideas about the New Age, Halloween and any conceivable esoteric movement as Satanist, since Chick was a rabid anti-Catholic and for him the Catholic Church was the quintessential Satanist organization. I mention Chick here because he was a very good example of evangelicals believing that everybody who’s not evangelical is a Satanist. And he was not a simple oddity – he sold millions of comics and tracts and was very influential in a certain evangelical subculture.
Abramovič is, first of all, an artist, and artists are often about provocation. Surely she wants to challenge the Christian establishment, particularly because a part of this same Christian establishment attacks the New Age spirituality she is a part of as satanic. In the “Spirit Cooking” series there may be an implicit reference to Crowley, when sperm is mentioned – although magical rituals involving sperm are not unique to Crowley. As the well-known historian of religion’s Mircea Eliade has demonstrated, they date back to Indian and Chinese sources, and are found in a variety of Western esoteric schools, most of them quite far away from Satanism – but what critics do not realize is that these references in “Spirit Cooking” are not necessarily complimentary. Some of the references mean that Abramovič is aware of these esoteric schools, but she does not agree with them. In fact, she believes their methods do not work and a new method is needed – her own. In my book ”Satanism: A Social History” I have a chapter explaining why Crowley was not a Satanist. Like Abramovič, he included in his writing some playful references to Satan or Satanic symbols. But he was very critical of Satanists, as for him Satanists accepts the Judeo-Christian, Biblical description of Satan, while if you really want to oppose Christianity, as Crowley did, he believed you should walk out of the Jewish and Christian Bible altogether.
Abramovič’s spirituality can be classified within the New Age versions of Western esotericism, where different schools and techniques are put together with a sort of esoteric syncretism. But none of these can be even remotely connected to Satanism, and in fact the Abramovič Method is about healing techniques aimed at mobilizing what is positive and luminous in your life and in the Earth’s energies.
At the end of this month, at the American Academy of Religion’s annual meeting in San Antonio, Texas, we will have a session on “The Fear of the Occult,” with me as one of the speakers. My topic there in fact is “The Fear of the Occult and Politics.” There is little doubt that populist politicians like to depict their enemies as part of secret groups involved in the occult. It started with accusations against Queen Marie Antoinette in revolutionary France, and went on with the campaigns against Freemasonry in the 19th century, where Freemasons were accused – falsely – of worshiping the Devil. Basically, it never stopped. It is part of a certain populist rhetorics. The fear of the occult becomes the fear of the elites.

8 Bizarre Performances by Marina Abramović That Will Leave You Open-Mouthed

Friend of the Rothschilds and connoisseur of characters belonging to the elite, she hides an enormous secret in her work.

Marina Abramovic's mother was a leader of the Orthodox Christian church in her country.

Probably Marina knew from that moment that a common religion wasn't designed for her and all her spirituality.

It was not until 1965 that she began studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Belgrade.

Raised in communist Serbia, Marina became interested in politics and leftist movements during her student years.

However, after becoming disillusioned with politics, she began to explore her more spiritual side.

With access to the libraries of prestigious personalities in her country, Marina and her brother Velimir began to read significant esoteric books (and such was their influence that Velimir became an influential author of the New Age movement).

Later, Marina adopted Joseph Beuys' idea about art: the artist could become a shaman and a healer of society.

That is how her performances took a path inclined to spirituality and esotericism.

In 1972 she completed her postgraduate studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb, Croatia.

A year later, while preparing her first solo performance called Rhythm 10 — the first of a series of four performances —she was teaching at the Academy of Fine Arts in Novi Sad.

In the '60s and '70s, many accused Marina of performing occult rituals that allowed her to stay young.

They began to call her a vampire because of this "gift" she seemed to possess.

She claimed that the women in her family lived too long.

Since then and up to the present day, the artist has continued to use her body as a medium to explore new horizons, marking the rest of society with her strong presence and shocking proposals.

That comprises around fifty works, including sound pieces, audiovisuals, installations, photos, and objects.

And performances solo and with other artists.

Her first performances, known as the "Ritmo 10", "Ritmo 5", "Ritmo 2", and "Ritmo 0" series, took place between 1973 and 1974 and were marked by controversy.

With them, she explored the limits of her body to pain and the audience's resistance to see what Abramović showed in an energetic dialogue between artist and spectators.

The artist continued with the idea common to all performances in these actions.

That feeling of the world through the personal experience of one's body.
Rhythm 10 (1973).

To explore elements of ritual and gesture, the artist used a set of knives with different blades and two tape recorders to perform the Russian game of knives.

The performance begins when the artist gives rhythmic blows with the first of the knives between the fingers of her other hand until she cuts herself, at which point she goes on to perform the same operation with the different prepared.

After using all the knives and having cut himself more than twenty times, he reproduced the sounds recorded on the tape to repeat the same movements, with errors included, thus managing to unite the past with the present.

In this way, Abramović explored the limits of moral and physical resistance-the pain and sounds of stabbing, the double sound of history and repetition-

That led her to reflect on the mind's and the organism's behavioral patterns.

And consider the state of consciousness in which the artist finds herself at the moment of the action.

Rhythm 5 or The Fire Star (1974).

She then performed her Rhythm 5, which in those days was known as The Star of Fire; she set fire to a big five-pointed star made of wood, known as petokraka (used to represent Serbian socialism and the pentagram in occultism).

Then Marina cut her hair and toenails and prostrated herself in the middle of the star.

She lost consciousness due to a lack of oxygen, and one of her colleagues had to pull her out.

Abramovic said that with this performance, she wanted to reflect on the socialist oppression they lived.

Rhythm 2 (1974).

In the performance "Rhythm 2", Marina Abramović experimented with testing whether a state of unconsciousness gets incorporated into a performance action.

In the first part of the experiment, she took one of the pills used for catatonia to test what connection got established between her body and mind.

The pill ingestion caused violent convulsions that made the artist lose control of her body.

Her mind remained lucid, and she was able to observe everything that was happening around her.

Ten minutes later, she carried out the second part of the experiment, in which she ingested another kind of pill used by depressive and violent people.

They caused her body to become immobile.

Although he was physically present, his mind was not.

Rhythm 0 (1974).

Undoubtedly her most daring and well-known performance.

To test the bounds of the relationship between artist and audience, Abramović developed one of her most demanding performances.

She adopted a passive role while the audience forced her to perform through her body manipulation.

On a table, she placed 72 objects that could give pleasure or inflict pain, including scissors, a gun, lipstick, a fork, and knives.

And a whip, which the audience could use as they wished, under the sole condition of applying them to the artist's body.

Initially, the audience reacted with caution and modesty, but as the six hours of the performance went by.

And in the face of the artist's impassivity, the spectators overcame their initial resistance and began to act more aggressively.

And violently, even leaving her clothes torn and shooting her with a loaded pistol.

That was one of the actions that best defined her concept of art and became her most characteristic artistic language.

With Ritmo Zero, the artist concluded the investigation with her own body, addressing how much we are affected and inhibited by the response of others before our actions.

She deals with issues such as alienation, tyranny, domination, and the sense of superiority.

Thomas Lips (1975).

Later she made another performance entitled Thomas Lips.

In it, Marina takes the "eucharist" while sitting completely naked.

She eats a kilo of honey and drinks a liter of wine.

She marks the pentagram on her belly with a sharp razor and begins to flog herself until she bleeds.

The performance ends with her prostration on an ice cross from which the audience had to remove her when she became unconscious.

In the 1980s, Abramovic decided to live for a year with the Australian Aborigines.

And she says that from them, she learned to control her physical and mental body.

She also studied the teachings of Tibetan Buddhism and the powers of Brazilian crystals and practiced vipassana in India.

Marina, in fact, also built her healing method that promoted meditation and introspection: with muscle relaxation, deep gazes, and breathing exercises, she puts on (she still practices it) headphones to isolate sound and then relaxes her muscles with various poses that allow her absolute meditation and peace.

The lovers (1988).

With the performance, The lovers, one of the most emblematic of their careers, Abramović and Ulay staged the wear and tear of their relationship with the physical and emotional wear and tear caused by walking nearly 2,000 kilometers of the Great Wall of China, each from one end of the wall and for 90 days, approximately about three months.

They decided to make a spiritual journey to end their personal and professional relationship.

When they met at the center, the couple consummated their separation.

They provide a fitting and romantic end to a relationship full of mysticism, energy, and attraction.

Undoubtedly together, they formed one of the most fruitful sentimental and professional tandems in the history of art, with the support of their complementary complicity and attraction.

Their excellent harmony and understanding have had many brilliant pieces at a creative level.

Spirit Cooking (1997).

But her spirituality was cut short last year after accusations that she was satanic and demonic.

After Marina held a Kickstarter for her new project, she held a thank you dinner for everyone who had contributed.

Among the guests were Tony Podesta and her brother John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign manager.

Then the rumors that Abramovic's dinner was a satanic ritual began to be heard everywhere (to discredit the Democratic candidate's campaign and the grandmother's career of the performance).

Everyone tried to deny what happened; Podesta did not even go to the dinner where Abramovic would teach her guests to prepare soup; however, what gave the title to her dinner was an installation that the artist made in 1997:

Here, we see Marina Abramovic writing what seems to be cooking something that uses sperm and breastmilk with pig's blood.

A metal bucket, liters of pig's blood, and a fat brush were enough for Marina Abramovic to perform her ritual in an exhibition hall.

While wearing a black robe, the Serbian artist finished the last brush strokes and emptied the remaining blood (including clots) into some wax figurines in the room's corners. Then, she covered the exhibition hall's edges with the remaining contents.

The sinister mixture of pig's blood and precise instructions made part of her 1997 work Spirit Cooking.

Although they appeared to be incantations or precise instructions for a demonic ritual, Abramovic claimed that it was a questioning of religion's influence on her work and humanity.

We often let the inexplicable rule and legitimize our lives and actions.

And even our bodies; for Abramovic, however, it was poetry.

A year earlier, she had published a book of aphrodisiac recipes.

The artist is present (2010).

On March 14, 2010, a major retrospective of the artist's work opened at MoMa, including video recordings from the 1970s, photographs and documents, and a chronological installation with re-enactments by actors of actions previously performed by Abramović.

The exhibition got accompanied by an illustrated catalog that included an audio recording in the artist's voice to guide the viewer.

For the retrospective, Marina Abramović presented the performance ever, 716 and a half hours sitting motionless in front of a table in the museum's atrium, where viewers were invited to sit it to share the artist's presence for as long as they deemed necessary.

The performance took place daily for seven hours and was broadcast live on a website created for the occasion.

When the museum was closed, videos of other actions, workshops, and interviews could be through the web.

Although there was no verbal communication between Abramović and the public, the participation of the visitors was indispensable to complete the action so that they could have a personal and unmediated experience with the artist and her work.

In this way, it is possible to appreciate the artist's imperturbability and the reactions of her successive companions.

And the other visitors to her impassive behavior.

Ulay made a surprise appearance during the opening, participating in the action and meeting her traveling companion again after 22 years of separation.

Internationally recognized for her long-term works on artistic time and chronological time and the relationship between the two, the artist assumes with this performance a total commitment,

She stated that the longer the performance lasts, the greater the physical and mental transformation she experiences and the more she can transmit to the public.

She believes that the time we live in is so short that we must stop and think to be aware of the present.

Artists have to do so that people disconnect for a moment and go to the here and now.

It was 62 days sitting on a chair holding the visitor's gaze, who sat in front of her.

One at a time is another way of exploring the body's limits.

When she finished, she got dismissed by the audience with a 13-minute ovation.

Inspired by 19th-century photography, when volts were used to produce prints, it is not as scary as it sounds, apparently.

“If you are charged up properly, the stream of electricity coming from your fingers will put out a candle a metre away from you,” said Factum Arte’s founder #AdamLowe. “We are not reckless or cavalier with the technology. Her performances are highly extreme. Many of the things she has done are far more dangerous.”
