German investigators name Zelensky rival as Nord Stream sabotage mastermind – media

8 Sep, 2025 10:08

 

Former Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Valery Zaluzhny commissioned the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines in 2022, German newspaper Die Welt reported on Monday, citing an investigator familiar with the matter.

According to the newspaper, German investigators believe they have cracked the case of the attacks on the Nord Stream 1 and 2, which run under the Baltic Sea and were built to carry Russian natural gas directly to Germany.

 

Previous Western media reports claimed that the authorities already knew the identities of the entire crew – reportedly made up of Ukrainian nationals – aboard the yacht Andromeda, which is suspected of being the vessel involved in the sabotage.

Die Welt noted that they were acting on orders from Zaluzhny, who was dismissed from his post in February 2024 and appointed Ukraine’s ambassador to the UK.

 

Since then, media reports have speculated that Zaluzhny could use his political clout to become Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky’s most dangerous rival in a potential election.

Media reports in August claimed that he is already laying the groundwork for a presidential bid and is recruiting campaign staff – a claim Zaluzhny’s team has denied.

 

Earlier reporting from Der Spiegel in September 2024 also claimed that Zaluzhny greenlit the attack, while a later article by Der Spiegel suggested that the general was so impressed by the operation that he wanted to expand it to target Russia’s TurkStream pipeline in the Black Sea – although the effort was thwarted. Zaluzhny has denied having any role in the sabotage.

 

According to Die Welt, however, some experts remain skeptical of the alleged Ukrainian role, saying the saboteurs were behaving too conspicuously.

“All nonsense,” an official familiar with the investigation said, as cited by the paper. He also accused those who suspect Russia or the US of being behind the attack of believing in conspiracy theories.

 

In contrast, a senior aide to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Nikolay Patrushev, claimed the sabotage could not have been executed without Western commandos, singling out Britain as the likely culprit and arguing that the Ukrainians lack the necessary expertise.

Putin previously suggested that US intelligence agencies under President Joe Biden orchestrated the sabotage.

Ukrainian PM doubles down on Russia strike on gov’t office claim despite evidence

7 Sep, 2025 19:24

 

Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Sviridenko has accused Russia of striking a government office in central Kiev, posting a video from inside a damaged corridor.

However, reports by Kiev Mayor Vitaly Klitschko and Ukrainian media suggested that the blaze was sparked by debris from a downed drone, not a direct hit.

 

In the video posted to social media on Sunday, Sviridenko said “you can see the consequences of the attack” while standing in a corridor with some scattered debris.

She also claimed that the fire caused by the attack covered 800 square meters. No clearly visible signs of any major blaze can be seen in the video except for what appears to be a burnt roof.

 

Klitschko stated earlier on Telegram that a government office caught fire after Ukrainian air defenses brought down a drone.

Several local media outlets, including TSN and Focus, also reported that the fire was caused by wreckage from the intercepted UAV.

 

The Russian Defense Ministry stated on Sunday that the nation’s military had targeted two military industrial facilities on the outskirts of Kiev in an overnight strike. It denied striking the government office.

Sviridenko used the incident to accuse Moscow of “not seeking peace” and urged Kiev’s Western backers to “help close our sky” and “strengthen sanctions against Russia.”

She also published a photo of herself standing inside a severely damaged building, claiming it to be the government office.

 

Photos released by the Ukrainian emergency services on social media only showed fire and smoke coming out of several windows on the upper floor of the government building, with no visible damage to its walls or roof.

This is not the first time Ukrainian officials have pointed the finger at Russia for damage caused either by a shot-down projectile or Ukraine's own air-defenses.

 

Such incidents in the past have set residential buildings and infrastructure ablaze, raising questions over Kiev’s placement of anti-air systems close to civilian areas.

Moscow maintains that it never targets civilians, only Kiev’s defense industry and military-related facilities.

Russia has no desire for revenge – Lavrov

8 Sep, 2025 14:02

 

Russia has no plans to exact vengeance on Western countries that cut ties and pressured Moscow over the Ukraine conflict, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said.

Speaking at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations on Monday, Lavrov stressed that Russia did not intend to “take revenge or vent anger” on companies that decided to support Western governments in their push to support Kiev and impose economic sanctions on Moscow, adding that hostility is generally “a poor adviser.”

 

“When our former Western partners come to their senses… we will not push them away. But we… will take into account that, having fled at the order of their political leaders, they have shown themselves to be unreliable,” the minister said.

According to Lavrov, any future market access would also depend on whether the companies would pose risks to sectors vital to Russia’s economy and security.

 

The minister stressed that Russia is open to cooperation and has no intention to isolate itself.

“We live on one small planet. It was Western-style to build Berlin Walls… We do not want to build any walls,” he said, referring to the symbol of the Cold War that split the German capital from 1961 to 1989.

”We want to work honestly, and if our partners are ready to do the same on the basis of equality and mutual respect, we are open to dialogue with everyone,” he said, pointing to the Alaska Summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart, Donald Trump, as an example of constructive engagement.

 

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, on Saturday, that Western businesses would be welcomed back if they had not supported the Ukrainian army and had met obligations to the state and their Russian staff, including paying due salaries.

Putin this month also rejected isolationism, stressing that Russia would like to avoid closing itself off in a “national shell” as it would harm competitiveness. “We have never turned away or pushed anyone out. Those who want back in are welcome,” he added.

IDF intercepts 3 Houthi drones launched at south, day after attack on Ramon Airport

Updated at 6:22 pm

 

Three drones launched by the Houthi rebels in Yemen were shot down by the Israeli Air Force over southern Israel within half an hour on Monday, the military said.

There were no reports of injuries or damage from the attacks, which followed the launch of four drones the day before, one of which exploded at Ramon International Airport.

Monday saw another drone intercepted near the airport, the military said, setting off sirens. Several interceptor missiles were launched over the Eilat area — just south of the airport — to shoot down the drone.

 

Another drone set off sirens in the southern city of Dimona and the nearby area. It too was shot down.

A third drone was shot down that did not set off any sirens, “according to protocol,” meaning it was downed before it could threaten any targets on the ground.

The Iran-backed Houthis took responsibility for the drones, claiming to have targeted Ben Gurion Airport in central Israel, Ramon Airport in the south, and a “sensitive target” in Dimona.

 

Later on Monday, sirens warning of a suspected drone infiltration sounded in several West Bank settlements south of Jerusalem and near the Dead Sea. However, the IDF said they were false alarms.

On Sunday, a drone launched by the Houthis evaded Israeli air defenses and smashed into the Ramon Airport’s passenger terminal, causing damage.

 

A 63-year-old man was lightly injured by shrapnel from the blast, according to the Magen David Adom ambulance service.

The man, along with a woman who fell over while running from the scene, was taken to Yoseftal Medical Center in Eilat for treatment. Several other people required treatment for acute anxiety, MDA added.

 

An initial Israeli Air Force investigation found that the drone was detected by radar, but was wrongly not classified as a threat by air defense troops.

As a result, no sirens sounded, no attempts were made to shoot it down, and the drone ultimately struck the airport.

 

Sunday saw the military shoot down three other Houthi drones that set off warning sirens in several communities on the Egyptian border.

While designated as an international airport, nearly all flights to and from Ramon are domestic. During the war in Gaza, thousands of Palestinians — including patients, wounded individuals and their family members — have been evacuated from the Strip via the airport for medical treatment abroad.

The drone launches on Sunday came amid a wave of Houthi missile and drone attacks over the past two weeks following Israel’s assassination of Houthi prime minister Ahmed Ghaleb Nasser al-Rahawi and several members of his cabinet in an attack in Yemen.

 

The Houthis — whose slogan calls for “Death to America, Death to Israel, [and] a Curse on the Jews” — began attacking Israel and maritime traffic in November 2023, a month after the October 7 Hamas massacre that sparked the war in Gaza.

The Houthis briefly held their fire when a ceasefire was reached between Israel and Hamas in January 2025.

By that point, they had fired over 40 ballistic missiles and dozens of attack drones and cruise missiles at Israel, including one drone that killed a civilian and wounded several others in Tel Aviv in July 2024, prompting Israel’s first strike in Yemen.

 

Since March 18, when the IDF resumed its offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, the Houthis have launched 80 ballistic missiles and at least 31 drones at Israel. Several of the missiles have fallen short.

In response, Israel has repeatedly attacked the Houthis in Yemen, located some 1,800 kilometers (1,100 miles) away.

Houthis celebrate drone strike on Ramon Airport, threaten further attacks: 'Real revenge hasn't begun'

September 8, 2025 22:42

 

A Houthi drone struck Ramon Airport near Eilat on Sunday without warning, marking one of the rare successful attacks by the Yemen-based group since the outbreak of war.

Although most Houthi launches are intercepted or fail to reach Israel, the attack adds to a series of significant operations that have raised concerns in Israel.

Israel has continued occasional strikes in Yemen targeting Houthi positions, but the group continues to launch missiles and drones toward Israel, aiming to hit targets and celebrating any apparent success.

 

After the Ramon Airport strike, senior Houthi correspondent Nasr al-Din Amer wrote on X that it was a "unique military operation" and issued further threats.

"The enemy’s airports are not safe. Foreigners must leave to protect themselves. Other sensitive targets are under fire," he said.

Houthi official Hazem al-Asad posted in Hebrew on X with videos from the airport, saying, "The real revenge has not yet begun. What awaits you will be much harsher."

Houthi-linked channels circulated images with captions warning that "the enemy’s airports are not safe" and "there will be no security or stability for the Zionist enemy and our operations will continue."

 

Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree has not officially claimed responsibility for the attack.

It occurred about a week and a half after Operation Lucky Drop, in which Houthi Prime Minister Ahmed al-Rahawi and several government ministers were killed.

The Houthis vowed revenge and repeatedly launched missiles and drones at Israel, making Sunday’s strike one of the few successful hits.

Despite many failed attempts, the Houthis have scored occasional successes during the war, demonstrating that their threats cannot be ignored.

 

Past attacks highlight the threat

The recent targeted killings in Yemen followed a previous Houthi success last month when a missile with a cluster warhead fired toward Israel partially exploded in a yard in Ginaton.

Since then, the Houthis claimed responsibility for another missile launch that Israel’s defense systems said was intercepted. On May 4, the group struck near Ben Gurion Airport with a ballistic missile that was not intercepted, causing casualties.

Senior Houthi official Mohammed al-Bukhaiti told Qatari channel Al-Arabi, "The escalation will continue as long as Israel does not stop the attacks in Gaza.

There are no red lines in our conflict with the Zionist entity, the United States and Britain. The Ben Gurion strike demonstrates our ability to hit fortified sites inside Israel."

 

Drone attacks across Israel

Other attacks in recent months include a Houthi drone that exploded in a penthouse in Yavne on December 9, 2024, and another that struck a school in Ramat Ef’al on December 19, causing damage from the warhead.

Two days later, a missile hit Jaffa, creating a crater in a playground, and on December 25 a drone from Yemen exploded in an open area in Ashkelon.

In July 2024, a Houthi drone crashed into an apartment in Tel Aviv without warning, killing Yevgeny Perder. The Houthis claimed it was a "Jaffa" drone, which they reportedly continued to use.

 

Prepared for war

Beyond their eliminated political leadership, the Houthis maintain a military command and operatives throughout Yemen and had prepared for war with Israel long before the conflict began.

Following the decline of the Iranian-Shia axis, the group has become a daily threat to Israel. Senior Houthi officials have repeatedly framed their operations as victories, whether they hit targets, fail, or die as "martyrs."

Even the mass rush of Israeli civilians to shelters during alerts is considered a success by the Houthis.

 

Last weekend, supporters of the Houthi regime celebrated the "birth of the prophet" across Yemen, including in the Sanaa region, which was attacked less than two weeks ago. F

or the Houthis, maintaining what they call a "firm stance" is a strategic advantage, and incidents like Sunday’s strike reinforce their determination to continue attacks with the potential for success.

IDF says it’s tracking suspected drone that set off sirens in West Bank

September 8, 2025 5:56 pm

 

The military says it is tracking a suspected drone that entered Israeli airspace a short while ago, setting off sirens near the Dead Sea and in several West Bank settlements south of Jerusalem.

 

“The target is being tracked by the Air Force, and the incident is still ongoing,” the army says, calling on civilians to continue to follow the Home Front Command guidelines.

IDF strikes fourth Gaza City high-rise within days, claiming it was used by Hamas

September 8, 2025 4:42 pm

 

The Israeli Air Force once again struck a high-rise building in Gaza City a short while ago that the IDF says was being used by Hamas, after issuing several warnings for residents in the area to evacuate.

 

According to the military, Hamas operatives had placed observation posts and surveillance equipment in the building, along with explosive devices, with the building allegedly being used to target IDF forces throughout the war.

 

The army says the strike was carried out with precision munitions and aerial surveillance to minimize civilian harm.

 

This is the fourth high-rise in Gaza City hit by the IDF in as many days, with the military saying each of the buildings was exploited by Hamas for terror activity.

IDF announces four soldiers killed in Hamas attack on army camp outside Gaza City

September 8, 2025 7:40 pm

 

Four soldiers were killed in a Hamas attack on the outskirts of Gaza City early this morning, the military announces.

 

Three of the slain troops are named as:

Staff Sgt. Uri Lamed, 20, from Tel Mond.

Sgt. Amit Arye Regev, 19, from Modiin.

Sgt. Gadi Cotal, 20, from Kibbutz Afikim.

They all served with the 401st Armored Brigade’s 52nd Battalion.

The name of the fourth soldier is set to be released later, the army says.

 

Additionally, a soldier of the Nahal Infantry Brigade’s 50th Battalion was moderately wounded in the incident, the army adds.

According to a preliminary IDF probe, three Hamas operatives launched an attack on an army encampment in the Kafr Jabalia area, on the outskirts of Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood at around 6 a.m.

The incident took place shortly after troops had returned to the outpost following an overnight activity.

 

The operatives reached a tank at the entrance to the encampment and opened fire at the commander, who had his head outside the armored vehicle’s open hatch.

The gunmen then hurled an explosive device inside the tank, leading to the deaths of the four soldiers, according to the initial investigation.

 

The probe also found that other soldiers stationed in the encampment returned fire at the fleeing gunmen, with at least two of them being hit.

During the exchange of fire, the wounded infantryman was hit in the leg, according to the IDF.

Mighty hurricane to hit Gaza: Israel warns Hamas to free hostages or face annihilation

UPDATED: Sep 8, 2025 12:33 IST

 

Israel’s Defense Minister, Israel Katz, issued a warning to Hamas on Sunday, vowing massive retaliation unless hostages are released and weapons are surrendered.

The minister warned that a mighty hurricane will hit Gaza if Hamas does not release hostages and lay down arms.

“Today, a powerful hurricane will strike the skies of Gaza City, and the roofs of the terror towers will [fall],” Katz wrote on X.

 

He directly addressed Hamas both inside Gaza and abroad, saying: “This is a final warning to the murderers and rapists of Hamas in Gaza and in luxury hotels abroad:

Release the hostages and lay down your weapons—or Gaza will be destroyed, and you will be annihilated.”

 

Katz emphasised that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are continuing operations as planned and preparing to expand their ground maneuver with the stated goal of decisively defeating Hamas in Gaza.

"The IDF continues as planned—and is preparing to expand the maneuver to decisively defeat Gaza," he wrote.

 

The warning comes amid escalating tensions, ongoing airstrikes, and mounting international concern over the humanitarian toll in the besieged territory.

Israel has been preparing for a major ground offensive to seize Gaza City in the northern Strip, where nearly a million residents had been sheltering before the latest wave of evacuations.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday that more than 100,000 people have already left.

 

In recent days, the IDF have targeted one high-rise building in Gaza each day, following evacuation alerts.

The military says the towers were used by Hamas, while analysts view the strikes as a push to accelerate civilian departures ahead of the planned takeover.

 

TRUMP'S LAST WARNING

Earlier on Sunday, US President Donald Trump also issued what he called his "last warning" to Hamas, urging the group to agree to a deal for releasing hostages from Gaza.

"The Israelis have accepted my Terms. It is time for Hamas to accept as well. I have warned Hamas about the consequences of not accepting.

This is my last warning, there will not be another one,” Trump wrote in a post his Truth Social platform.

 

The war in Gaza was triggered by Hamas’s October 7, 2023 attack on Israel, a large-scale assault that left around 1,200 people dead, the majority of them civilians, and saw 251 others taken hostage.

The attack marked the deadliest single day in Israel’s history and set off the ongoing military campaign in Gaza.

 

Of the 251 people abducted, many have since been freed through temporary ceasefires or negotiated exchanges, but a significant number remain in captivity.

The fate of those still held by Hamas continues to fuel tensions and drive Israel’s military operations.

At least five said killed as Israel hits Hezbollah sites in northeast Lebanon

September 8, 2025 6:12 pm

 

At least five people were reported killed in Israeli strikes in Lebanon’s eastern Beqaa valley targeting sites allegedly used by the Hezbollah terror group to plan attacks.

According to the Israel Defense Forces, air force planes hit Hezbollah military compounds belonging to the terror group’s elite Radwan Force, where operatives were gathered and where weapons were stored.

 

The attack involved 12 separate strikes, across the Hermel region in the north of the valley, Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Mayadeen News reported.

“The Israeli enemy strikes on the Bekaa and the outskirts of Hermel led to a preliminary toll of five dead and five others wounded,” Lebanon’s health ministry said.

 

The IDF said the sites were “used by the Hezbollah terror organization for conducting training, preparing terrorists for planning and carrying out terror attacks against IDF troops and the State of Israel.”

“As part of the training and preparation of the terrorists in the camps, the terrorists undergo shooting drills and additional training in the use of various types of weapons,” the military said.

 

The training and use of the sites by Hezbollah to store weapons are a “blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon and pose a threat to the State of Israel,” the IDF said.

Under a November 27 ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, weapons in Lebanon were to be held only by the state, and the IDF was permitted to act against imminent threats by the terror group.

 

Israel has since carried out hundreds of attacks on Hezbollah personnel or assets, the vast majority of them in southern Lebanon, though it has also taken action deeper inside the country, including in the Beqaa valley, a stronghold of the Iran-backed group.

On Friday, Lebanon’s cabinet approved a plan to disarm the terror group, whose ministers and other Shi’ites in the government walked out on the meeting. Details of the disarmament plan remain secret.

 

The ceasefire agreement came after nearly 14 months of conflict sparked by the Hezbollah’s unprovoked launching of near-daily attacks on Israeli border communities starting October 8, 2023 — a day after fellow Iran-backed group Hamas stormed southern Israel, sparking the Gaza war.

The Hezbollah attacks displaced some 60,000 residents of northern Israel. In a bid to secure their return, Israel stepped up operations in Lebanon in September 2024, decimating Hezbollah’s leadership.

US Congress is holding a UFO hearing tomorrow about 'restoring public trust.' Here's how to watch live

September 8, 2025

 

UFOs are coming back to Washington, D.C. tomorrow.

 

A hearing titled "Restoring Public Trust Through UAP Transparency and Whistleblower Protection" will be held by the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, a task force established in January 2025 by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

At the hearing, three U.S. military veterans will share their experiences witnessing UAP, or unidentified anomalous phenomena, a new term for UFOs that encompasses strange objects or events not only in the sky but also in water or space, or that appear to travel between these domains.

The hearing begins at 10 a.m. ET (1400 GMT) on Tuesday (Sept. 9). Watch it live here courtesy of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform.

 

The Task Force is chaired by Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), who has alleged that the U.S. government is hiding the truth about many other conspiracies.

"It is time to give Americans the answers they deserve, which is why I am honored to lead this bipartisan task force that seeks truth and transparency," Luna said in a House statement announcing the task force.

"We will also investigate UAPs/USOs, the Epstein client list, COVID-19 origins, and the 9/11 files."

 

Luna says tomorrow's hearing is intended to compel Congress to reexamine what types of information should be classified and which should be available to the public, mostly when it comes to UAP.

"The American people deserve maximum transparency from the federal government on sightings, acquisitions, and examinations of UAPs and whether they pose a potential threat to Americans' safety," Luna said in a House statement announcing the hearing.

 

In addition to the three military veterans who claim to have witnessed UAP, the hearing will also include longtime investigative journalist George Knapp. For decades, Knapp has claimed the U.S. government is hiding evidence of UFOs and/or alien life.

In the late 1980s while working as anchor for KLAS-TV in Las Vegas, Knapp rose to fame helping popularize the claims of UFO-lore stalwarts Bob Lazar and John Lear.

Lazar claims to have worked at the U.S. Air Force's infamous Area 51 facility where he helped reverse engineer crashed flying saucers. His claims have never been substantiated.

 

Lear, meanwhile, was a former CIA pilot who promoted theories that the U.S. government was involved in a long-term conspiracy to hide the fact that it colluded with extraterrestrial beings.

Ultimately, Tuesday's hearing is intended to send the message that "whistleblowers who provide details on spending information and policies and procedures regarding the classification and declassification of UAPs should be able to do so without retribution," according to Luna's statement.

We've heard similar sentiments in previous congressional hearings.

 

In November 2024, former U.S. counterintelligence officer Luis Elizondo, who claims to have investigated UAP while working for secret Pentagon program, testified that we are "in the midst of a multi-decade, secretive arms race  — one funded by misallocated taxpayer dollars and hidden from our elected representatives and oversight bodies."

Elizondo, who has shared easily debunked imagery as proof of UAP in other congressional briefings, suggested the U.S. government should offer protections to UAP whistleblowers so those who are "desperate to do the right thing can come forward without fear."

 

For decades, purported whistleblowers have argued that classified military and intelligence sensors and satellites regularly record evidence of unexplained phenomena or advanced craft, potentially piloted by alien beings.

But because those records are classified by the U.S. government in order to not reveal the full extent of its surveillance or sensing capabilities, these whistleblowers argue, the truth is being withheld from the American public and the world.

Remastered George Van Tassel 1964 Interview on his experiences at Giant Rock, California Airport

Mar 10, 2020

 

Van Tassel was born in Jefferson, Ohio in 1910, and grew up in a fairly prosperous middle-class family.

He finished high school in the 10th grade and held a job at a Cleveland airport; he also acquired a pilot's license.

At 20, he moved to California, where at first he worked for a garage owned by an uncle.

 

While working at the garage he met Frank Critzer, an eccentric loner who claimed to be working a mine somewhere near Giant Rock, a 7-story boulder near Landers, California.

Frank Critzer was a German immigrant trying to make a living in the desert as a prospector. During World War II, Critzer was under suspicion as a German spy and died during a police siege at the Rock in 1942.

Upon receiving news of Critzer's death, Van Tassel applied for a lease of the abandoned airport near Giant Rock from the Bureau of Land Management, who managed the land, and was eventually given a renewable Federal Government contract to develop the airstrip.

 

Van Tassel became an aircraft mechanic and flight inspector who at various times between 1930 and 1947 worked for Douglas Aircraft, Hughes Aircraft, and Lockheed.

While at Hughes Aircraft he was the Top Flight Inspector.[2] He finally left Southern California's booming aerospace industry for the desert in 1947.

He and his family at first lived a simple existence in the rooms Frank Critzer had dug out under Giant Rock. Van Tassel eventually built a home, a cafe, a small airstrip, and a dude ranch beside the Rock.

 

George Van Tassel died of a heart attack in 1978.

BOMBSHELL! Decoding Comet 3I/ATLAS..A Message To Humanity

Sep 6, 2025

 

The comet 3I/ATLAS is fast approaching and its gaining more and more hype along its way.

Kerry Cassidy and former Defense Contractor and Scientist specializing in Nuclear Fusion, David Sereda join the podcast to decode and explain its message to humanity.

Is a mass AWAKENING about to happen? You Decide

 

Most people don't realize we are visited by ufos/UAP and aliens every day…. 3I/Atlas is a whole different ballgame…

Think about it how does a "friendly species" approach? This isn’t some nice little ufo..it’s a battleship.

 

My work is mentioned in this article…”Enter the Secret Space Program

https://www.theinteldrop.org/2025/08/30/urgent-leaked-nasa-memo-reveals-atlas-not-natural-anomaly-or-craft/

 

The leaked memo dovetails with testimony Project Camelot’s Kerry Cassidy has carried for years: that a covert space program (Solar Warden and others) patrols our solar system, fully aware of—and in contact with—craft entering or transiting it.

Whistleblowers have described technology capable of reading the composition of incoming craft, detecting occupants, and even assessing weapon systems.

 

If so, ATLAS is already known. The question is not whether it’s natural, but whether it is regarded as friend, foe, or something in between.

Decisions about contact—up to and including the use of force—are being made in silence. The public will hear nothing until long after the fact, if ever.”==GORDON DUFF, the Intel Drop

 

The bottom line here is that we have a secret Space Program and there’s no doubt whatsoever that they are in contact with this incoming craft in our solar system.

You may have heard of solar warden, and other such teams that patrol our solar system at all times, and I am told by whistleblowers they can read the incoming craft what they are comprised of the beings inside as well as the technology that’s operational and so on and this has been going on for years many years so in this case, they are in contact and they have also decided whether 3I/ATLAS is friend or foe and whether to shoot warning shots or not, but NONE of that will be shared with the public…Until it’s too late or suits their agenda.
