Way back in May 1981, the GAO published a report entitled “Federal Electrical Emergency Preparedness Is Inadequate,” warning that the nation’s electric power systems were “very vulnerable to disruptions from acts of war, sabotage, or terrorism,” and that the “Federal Government is not now prepared to handle a long-term national or regional disruption in electric power.”
Since that time there have been hundreds of effective sabotage attacks on on non critical nodes, killing power to tens of thousands of households at a time. These terror attacks continue at approximately 1.5 per week.
Outside grid security experts and engineers have argued for years that the industry needs to improve physical security standards for critical assets in the country’s electrical grid, motivated in part by a federal study which showed that physical sabotage attacks against only a small number of critical nodes in the grid would be sufficient to cause a prolonged and devastating nationwide blackout, meaning a long-term absence of lighting, internet, functioning gas stations, trucking, refrigeration, grocery store deliveries, drinking water, or water in toilets. How long? Months to years, depending on which nodes are hit by cyber or physical attack.
Yet over the past nine years, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has declined to order a fundamental overhaul of an obviously ineffective physical security standard despite numerous formal complaints and petitions. Below: one perfectly placed bullet round killed power to 44,000 in North Carolina.
"Thousands of civilian victims were murdered, wounded, raped, tortured, mutilated and over two hundred fifty civilians were kidnapped and held hostage by these terrorists including those from HAMAS, PIJ, PFLP and HEZBOLLAH (“October 7th Attack”)."
Plaintiffs allege the UNWRA enabled and funded the training of militants to commit acts of war, terrorism and war crimes.

Putin has been consistent from the before the Military Operation that he simply wants to be left alone by NATO, the EU and the US. His terms for peace have been reasonable and have not changed.
Alastair Crooke:
"There are reports that Macron and Starmer agreed in a conversation that Zelensky must conduct some provocative operation [this week]
"--a false flag operation or a provocative attack into Russia, into the depth of Russia or something else--sufficient to create an absolute pressure on Putin to respond, and thus to destroy the meeting altogether, to stop the meeting taking place.
"The Europeans are terrified of the [Alaska] meeting taking place [on Friday] and they want to stop it. I believe the Russians have probably picked up on it, suggesting that there is going to be an attempt to create some incident, some security catastrophe, that creates the impossibility of following up on this meeting. And the Euros are trying to insert Zelensky into Alaska, whether invited or ...
"For four hundred years, Americans lived in a world wherein your brother, your neighbor, your town and region were your responsibility. And where you yourself, could do anything under the commodious carapace of the King of Kings.
"More than anything, the CIA wanted Christianity destroyed; it bred self-determination and strength. Under MKUltra, and mostly at Stanford’s Research Center, using the flower children and rock scene of L.A. and San Francisco, they figured out how to ruin human potential.
"In fact, they called it the human potential movement, in a typical inversion of reality. What it did was celebrate and encourage your worst impulses, praise your degradation, tell you that weakness is your strength, supplant your heritage with the heritage of foreign faiths and experimental practices."
