Bulletins and News Discussion from January 20th to January 26th, 2025 - Viva La Resistance

After 15 months of genocide - and resistance to it - the Israeli regime realized that they could not win a military victory against Hamas, and were forced to sign a humiliating ceasefire in order to get their hostages returned.

With much of Syria under the control of Al-Qaeda, and an increasing level of covert infiltration into Lebanon, the crisis in the Middle East is not over, and we may still be in its beginning stages, as the center of hegemony continues its gradual shift away from the United States. Their navy, once considered the best in the world, is likely also not very happy about their ships and aircraft carriers being forced to retreat by Yemen, one of the poorest countries; and all eyes are on Iran, who has, over the last year and a half, demonstrated a newfound confidence and strength to directly strike Israel.

The recovery for Gaza will take, at a minimum, decades; it could indeed never fully recovery to even how it was before, considering it is not in Israel's interests to see their concentration camps recover. But Hamas has proven to be steadfast and the tunnel network has proven its resilience, despite facing some of the most powerful conventional bombing in history. This shows that Palestine's liberation is a when, not an if; and hopefully a much sooner "when" than expected before October 7th.

  • Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum says she will talk with Brazilian President Lula da Silva about a joint Latin American response to the expansionist policies of Donald Trump, who is threatening to seize the Panama Canal and is trying to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico. Asked about a joint statement in the face of Trump's expansionist threats and new migration policy, Sheinbaum said there was “unity” in Latin America.

    “I've had several phone calls in recent days, I've spoken to [Guatemalan President Bernardo] Arévalo, there was a meeting of the foreign ministers of different Latin American and Caribbean countries and in recent days we're going to speak to President Lula,” Sheinbaum said at her daily press conference.

    • She asked Cucky to do something about Trump? Lmao he couldn’t even say no to the Taiwanese lobby.

      • This is probably due to the border between Guatemala and Mexico, but I doubt that Arévalo can do anything serious to help even if he really wanted to. Claudia also spoke to Xiomara Castro and Gustavo Petro about this issue, since Xiomara will be handing over her position as leader of CELAC to Petro in March. We'll see what Mexico, Colombia and Brazil do, but I think it's good that they refused to recognize Edmundo Gonzalez, and sent diplomats to Maduro's inauguration. But I still think they should have recognized Maduro's re-election, I understand that Lula and Petro don't have a majority in congress and that the media attack them daily for the most idiotic reasons, but at least Mexico could have recognized Maduro.
