Regina Laska referred to a report by Bojan Pancevski in the Wall Street Journal, which stated that US intelligence agencies believed Vladimir Putin personally ordered an intensified sabotage campaign against NATO countries. The drone attack on Leipzig/Halle Airport was reportedly among the first attacks. Investigators warned that an explosion of the Antonov could have caused deaths and chaos at one of Europe's most important cargo airports. Laska wrote that the perpetrators had smuggled explosives in canned goods. In mid-September, a farmer found a crashed drone with such a can near the Wunstorf airbase. According to the BKA, it likely had been there for two years. If that is the case, it dates back to the same time as the DHL incendiary packages from 2024. Investigators believed that these were intended to ignite passenger planes en route to the UK and North America while in the air. The Leipzig package burned on the ground due to a flight delay, according to a statement from a DHL representative in court in Lithuania, rather than on board a cargo plane. Laska reminded that Pancevski also conducted a major investigation into Nord Stream and reported that Volodymyr Zelensky initially approved the plan. She asked Putin supporters whether they would also reject these reports and sharply urged them to accept Pancevski's account as well. #Putin #NATO #Sabotage (translated)

The author referred to the burning town hall as a symbol. He wrote that the building had already been attacked on October 1st, without the police having protected it, and had burned down on October 17th. The attackers had been professionals and had used a 200 kg heavy battering ram as well as sophisticated arson techniques. The author claimed that all of this had been allowed and that those responsible had wanted such images. https://t.co/fbT6cp21JR #Rathaus #Brandstiftung #Polizei #DE (translated)

Dr. Tallinger described a conversation between Emmanuel Macron and Benjamin Netanyahu on October 7, 2023, as epic contemporary history. According to him, Macron wanted to see diplomacy, while Netanyahu warned that Macron would face people on the streets of France whom he described with a dehumanizing term if he did not fight back. Dr. Tallinger claimed that Macron had later supported Hamas/Palestine by recognizing Palestine and allowing demonstrations calling for the globalization of the intifada. He wrote that Macron had encountered demonstrators on the streets of France the day before, and that the police had then lost control and France was on fire. He called the events Netanyahu's legacy and described him as a strong, clear-sighted, and principled leader with no equivalent in European politics. Dr. Tallinger also rejected the description of Netanyahu as far-right. He claimed that if far-right forces had been in control of Israel on October 7, 2023, thousands of Israeli soldiers would not have been sacrificed to conduct a humane war with extremely low civilian casualties among the population of Gaza. #Frankrike #Politik #Mellanöstern (translated)

Glenn criticized a writer in Aftonbladet for having misunderstood a Generation X attitude towards politics and music, according to him. He argued that Metallica's audience did not want political statements from the band and that James Hetfield and the other members understood their audience. Glenn asserted that Metallica's actions against file sharing via Napster were about protecting the band's music, not about politics. He recounted that a friend received a message saying she had been banned from Napster by Metallica, but they laughed about it. He called it brain-dead to describe Metallica as cowardly for not wanting to dedicate playtime to Palestine, the environment, or Russia. Glenn also wrote that Hetfield's statement about politics and music was hypocrisy. https://t.co/ZKhpjjkCKt #Metallica #musik #politik (translated)

The writer argued that dissatisfaction with high gas prices or problems in schools did not lead people to burn down cities. The riots and crime that, according to the writer, are now occurring in France are instead driven by other forces. https://t.co/da5LEq1yIN #Frankrike #brottslighet #samhälle #FR (translated)

Sberbank confirmed the attack and stated that all systems and services were operating normally. The Ukrainian drone company Fire Point also confirmed the hit.
