    The US has become a rogue state run by Zionist fanatics who use genocide and regime change as policy objectives. A multi-polar world by nuclear armed actors is the only way to secure the peace. The US only understands mutually assured destruction.

        Russia supporting the RSF? Russia is supporting the Sudanese military; it’s Wagner that’s supporting the RSF. Definitely true about Assad though.
