[Breitbart] President Donald Trump is ushering in a new age of peace, stability and cooperation in the region, according to Hassan bin Youssef Yassin, a senior Saudi diplomat and advisor to King Salman bin Abdulaziz, who expressed strong support for the President’s efforts to create a “new world order” based on coexistence and cooperation, as he urged Arab nations to back his initiative as they did in the past.
In an article published Tuesday in Arab News, Yassin argues that President Trump’s shift to diplomacy — particularly with global powers — offers an opportunity to resolve long-standing conflicts, including the Arab-Israeli dispute.
“There is no denying that U.S. President Donald Trump is upending old methods and alliances, forcing a new world order,” he writes, urging skeptics to give the Republican President a chance. “If President Trump can push Russia and Ukraine to end their conflict and embark upon an era of peace, then I believe we can get Israel to do the same in the Arab world.”
Highlighting the U.S. as the world’s most influential power, Yassin asserts that peaceful coexistence between Israel and the Arab world would yield significant economic and political benefits. He also argues that America “has the ability to make this age-old dispute a conflict of the past.”
“It is clear to everyone that Israel and the Arab world must coexist peacefully, with major gains available to all in terms of stability, trade, and a regional economy that could really take off,” he writes.
Yassin, who founded the Saudi Information Office in the U.S., also stresses the need for reconciliation between the U.S., Russia, and China.
“An American reconciliation and enhanced cooperation with Russia and China can set the stage for a more peaceful and collaborative world order,” he writes.
Calling for a shift in global attitudes toward President Trump’s leadership, he challenges critics to reconsider their stance.
“If these objectives are within the reach of a new world order of coexistence and cooperation, perhaps those who currently oppose Trump should give him a chance, encourage him, and allow him to claim credit for achieving the objectives of global peace and stability,” he writes.
Reflecting on past eras of global conflict, Yassin concludes that, “We once lived in an age of mutually assured destruction; let us at least try an age of mutually advisable cooperation.”
Urging global leaders to support President Trump’s vision, he emphasizes that difficult but effective solutions should not be dismissed.
“Perchance President Trump is onto something. Perhaps we can all give him the benefit of the doubt,” he writes, adding that “Medicine does not always taste good, but if it is effective then we should all be open to it to usher in a new era of peace, stability, and cooperation.”
The matter comes as President Trump begins his new term, proclaiming his desire to be a “peacemaker” on the world stage.
Since taking office, he has pushed for an ambitious Gaza relocation plan aimed at ending the conflict through outside-the-box thinking and has actively worked to broker a ceasefire deal between Ukraine and Russia.

[ColonelCassad] Operation MIDRIB: The CIA's Declassified Plan to Exploit Stalin's Death
A declassified CIA document from April 16, 1952, codenamed "MIDRIB," reveals a comprehensive psychological operations plan aimed at exploiting the moment of Stalin's departure from the political arena.
The MIDRIB plan is divided into two phases: actions before Stalin's death and operations after his departure. The main goal was to make the most of a potential succession crisis to weaken and possibly destroy the Soviet system from within.
Recommendations were made for the US response to Stalin's death. The plan envisaged a complete absence of official condolences from the American government - a move that would underscore the refusal to recognize the legitimacy of the Soviet regime.
The document contains a detailed analysis of the "vulnerabilities" of the Soviet regime that were to be exploited in psychological operations: "intellectual and spiritual enslavement," "suppression of religion," "deprivation of personal freedom," "deprivation of the fruits of one's labor." American strategists planned to actively exploit these themes in order to maximize internal tensions in Soviet society and leadership.
The plan also called for the creation of a special oversight committee, which was to include representatives of the State Department, the CIA, and the Defense Department, chaired by a Psychological Strategy Board. The committee was to review the plan regularly, ensuring its relevance and coordination of efforts across agencies.
Some elements of the plan were actually implemented after Stalin's death in March 1953. Beria was removed by his Politburo colleagues more quickly than American strategists expected, and Khrushchev proved an unpredictable player whose de-Stalinization policies created their own dynamics. The exposure of Stalin's "personality cult", which began with Khrushchev's famous report at the 20th Congress of the CPSU, actually fulfilled part of the tasks that the authors of the "MIDRIB" plan set for themselves, creating an ideological crisis within the Soviet system and the communist movement as a whole.
On March 5, the traditional action "2 carnations for comrade Stalin" took place.
A total of 4,000 red carnations were laid.
After the start of the SVO, more and more citizens of the country began to understand the historical correctness of comrade Stalin. Boris Rozhin is a Big League Stalinist...
#1
If I remember the sequence right
1) Stalin died in strange circumstances and everybody thought Beria did it as
2) Beria grabbed power instantly.
3) Khrushchev and the others grumbled about it but Khrushchev was a straight forward and simple man who just walked in to see Beria, shot him dead and walked out.
4) Everybody breathed a sigh of relief and made him top dog for a few years..
[YouTube] Why is it that reports of former President Joe Biden’s failing mental acuity are just now coming out? Victor Davis Hanson asks this question on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”
“I don't know if you've noticed, everyone, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, they all knew about Joe Biden's dementia. Suddenly we're given all of these revealing quotes that he was completely physically and mentally unfit to carry out the oath of office. But we all knew that.
“Why all of a sudden are we no longer crazy that Joe Biden was not fit as a fiddle, that the quarantine was a mess, that Brett Kavanaugh was not a rapist or sexual assaulter, that there's more to January 6th than we're told? And I could go on and on about these 11th-hour revelations."
