It so happened that yesterday I was coming home in a taxi. The taxi driver, who looked like Bill Murray, turned out to be very talkative: during the trip, as often happens, we touched on all subjects, from the weather to blondes behind the wheel. At some point, as background noise, there was some news read out on the radio. After the segment about the poisoning of Alexei Navalny, NordStream 2 and possible EU sanctions the taxi driver shook his head and said thoughtfully: “Yeah, mommy is stuck…” “What mommy?” I inquired.

While President Trump lashes out at rioting and looting in Portland and Kenosha, half way around the world, the USA and Turkey are plundering and looting Syria on a vastly greater scale with impunity and little publicity. Turkey Loots Syria, then Disrupts Safe Water Supply Turkey has been plundering the Syrian infrastructure for years. Beginning in late 2012 and continuing through 2013 some 300 industrial factories were dismantled and taken to Turkey from Aleppo, the industrial capital of Syria. “Machinery and goods were loaded on trucks and carried off to Turkey through the Cilvegozu and Ceylanpinar crossings. Unfortunately, ‘plundering’ and ‘terror’ have ...

We are now entering a period when survival is questionable. My regular readers know that I have predicted that the next Big Thing in America apart from the 2020 elections will be Nationwide Food Riots which could be followed by the systematic destruction of American cities. There is an alternative to starvation and violence. We could learn to garden. I have written a series of articles on gardening at my new blog- Grand Solar Minimum Gardening. We learned the following from Dr Elaine Ingham who taught us what should be our first lesson in gardening which is soil biology. One day a leaf on a branch 100 feet above the ground decides it needs more calcium so it sends a message down to the ...
Separatists Want to Break Away from Scotland

A separatist movement has begun within Scotland. Now, the Orkney islands are following Shetland in demanding independence from Scotland itself. This is part of a widening global trend; as the government begins to crumble internally, separatist movements will begin. We will see this also appear in the United States after the elections. Some people want to separate from the USA, taking California, Oregon, and Washington if Trump wins. We should support that if they take Bill Gates with them, and perhaps then we can revoke any passport to allow travel to the USA.

State Department has come under fire for facilitating arms sales to the Saudis and suppressing evidence of legal issues raised by Yemen war A report from The New York Times revealed that some US officials are concerned that their role in facilitating arms sales to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, while ignoring the harm to civilians each country has caused in Yemen, could lead to their arrest overseas for war crimes.

The report said that officials from both the Obama administration and the Trump administration have considered hiring lawyers to discuss the possibility of being arrested while ...

If Cuties didn’t persuade you to cancel your Netflix subscription, maybe this will do the trick. Meghan Markle has pitched the infamously far-left company a new concept allowing her to cash in both on her connection to British royalty and on the Black Lives Matter phenomenon that has reduced parts of major American cities to smoking ruins. Via Mirror Online: Meghan’s proposed movie is about Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors, who is said to have “hugely inspired’ the duchess. If it gets the green light it will be part of a £120million deal she and Prince Harry signed with the streaming giant. The price of celebrity moonbattery has gone up since Netflix ...

The US is in peace talks with the Taliban. Concerns mount. Will the Taliban Hold Up Their End of the Deal? Here is the wrong question: Will the Taliban Hold Up Their End of the Deal? The four-part agreement between the U.S. and the Taliban committed the U.S. to withdrawing most of its soldiers from Afghanistan, which it is doing. In exchange, the Taliban provided assurances that Afghanistan would no longer be used as a base from which to wage attacks against the U.S. and its allies. It also agreed to engage with the Afghan government. But the promises made by the Taliban to meet those goals were vague and very difficult to verify. Based on publicly available information, I find the ...

Chinese Virologist Claims She Can Prove COVID Virus Was Made in Wuhan Lab By Johnathan Jones Published September 12, 2020 at 3:19pm A virologist from China said in a recent interview that the novel coronavirus which has swept the globe is man-made and originated in a Chinese lab. Dr. Li-Meng Yan has reportedly been in hiding since shortly after she began researching the origins of COVID-19 at the end of 2019, when the first outbreak was reported in Wuhan, China. In an interview published Friday on the British talk show “Loose Women,” Yan — speaking from an undisclosed location — discussed her theory about the origin of the pandemic. “[COVID] comes from the lab ...

Among the phrases that are guaranteed to trigger right-wing backlash are “global governance” and “world government.” However, when it comes to appointing foreign citizens to high government posts, conservative governments are at the forefront of such “global governance.” When British Prime Minister Boris Johnson appointed former Australian Prime Minister (and fellow right-winger) Tony Abbott as an official adviser to the British Board of Trade, including a role in advising on the United Kingdom’s Brexit implementation, alarms were triggered in London and Canberra. Questions were raised in Canberra about Abbott’s obvious conflicts-of-interest in ...

Swedes continue to use isolated incidents of supposed “reverse racism” to stir up hatred against the immigrant community. This is a time-honored tradition among the racist right, and it isn’t surprising to see these tropes being reinforced by Russian media, which continually attempts to stir division in European societies. RT: Video of a violent and unprovoked attack by a man on a woman in Malmo, while his accomplice howls with laughter in the background, has caused outrage in Sweden. The video purports to show a 20-year-old man, named in the Swedish media as ‘Ali’, striking an unsuspecting woman as she walks past. The video was widely shared online over the ...

America vs. Russia: Brinksmanship With Nuclear Bombers Risks Starting a Disastrous War

B-52s vs. Russian jets in the Black Sea could start a crisis that spark a war no one would ever want. In the past few months, the Black Sea is a lot less quiet than it ought to be. A mostly land-locked sea with decades of treaties designed to keep interlopers from sending warships into the area willy-nilly, the source of tension is in the skies, with U.S. planes showing up just outside of Russian airspace. There have been times where such interceptions are reported twice or even thrice a week, usually with Russian Su-27 fight jets intercepting U.S. Navy surveillance planes that were moving to the outskirts of Russia’s airspace. This culminated at the end of August, with an ...
U.S. is in Middle East ‘to protect Israel’ not for oil, Trump says

Four days ago, Donald Trump said the U.S. isn’t involved in the Middle East for oil, but because we “want to protect Israel.” The comments have gone all but unreported in the mainstream press. Trump made the comment during a rally in Winston-Salem, N.C. on Sept. 8, when he was bragging about America’s energy independence, which he said Joe Biden would undermine if he gets the White House (minute 47): I like being energy independent, don’t you? I’m sure that most of you noticed when you go to fill up your tank in your car, oftentimes it’s below two dollars. You say how the hell did this happen? Thank you President Trump! Look at your electric bills and ...
