A Newsweek Reporter Resigns, a Counter-Narrative Won’t Die

Is the media suppressing evidence that the 2018 chemical 'attack' in Syria didn't happen the way officials said it did? It is perhaps the least reported media scandal about the least reported international controversy in recent times—the resignation of Tareq Haddad, a well-regarded journalist from Newsweek, a mainstay of the mainstream media. At issue was what he said regarding the magazine’s refusal to cover the scandal unfolding within the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW). Evidence has been building for some time that the OPCW cooked the books in its investigation of alleged chemical weapons use in the Syrian town of Douma on April 7, ...
Why I Don’t Criticize Russia, China, Or Other Unabsorbed Governments

Depending on whose political echo chamber I happen to be arguing with on a given day, one common criticism I run into a fair bit which many of my readers have surely also encountered is that I put all my energy into criticizing the foreign policy of the United States and its allies. “You’re not anti-war, you’re only anti-AMERICAN wars!” they say, as though they’re delivering some kind of devastating slam-dunk point. “If you’re so antiwar, why don’t you criticize Assad’s war in Syria? If you’re such an anti-imperialist, show me where you’ve ever once criticized Russian imperialism, or Chinese imperialism?” The argument being ...

Donald Trump Assassination Attempt by ISIS Operatives Was Foiled by Secret Service Last Year By Alexandra Hutzler On 10/15/18 at 12:56 PM EDT The Massive Cost Of The President's Secret Service Protection Explained Operatives of the Islamic State militant group (ISIS) attempted to assassinate Donald Trump when the president was in Manila, Philippines, last year, but were stopped by Secret Service agents. In November 2017, Trump was in the city for the Association of South East Asian Nations' ASEAN 50 Summit, where he met with Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, when the botched assassination effort took place. The planned killing was previously kept under wraps until ...
These Five Top Trends Will Go On To Define The Decade

Mapping out a logical and sustainable long-term plan requires delving into some rather hefty philosophical questions like what brings real happiness. Dictators that govern under an agenda totally of their own creation have been no more successful than elected officials in coming up with real answers to our woes. Below are what I see as the "key" and most powerful directional shifts dictating our future and shaping our culture. These are followed by a few words on each. The central banks pouring money and credit into the financial system in an effort to keep the economy moving forward. The growing number of social ills, sick, and dysfunctional people. Political shifts and ...
MEDIA’S DEAFENING SILENCE ON LATEST WIKILEAKS DROPS IS ITS OWN SCANDAL

WikiLeaks has published yet another set of leaked internal documents from within the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) adding even more material to the mountain of evidence that we’ve been lied to about an alleged chemical weapons attack in Douma, Syria last year which resulted in airstrikes upon that nation from the US, UK and France. This new WikiLeaks drop includes an email from the OPCW Chief of Cabinet Sebastien Braha (who is reportedly so detested by organisation inspectors that they code named him “Voldemort”) throwing a fit over the Ian Henderson Engineering Assessment which found that the Douma incident was likely a staged event. Braha is ...

The Libyan National Army (LNA) announced on Friday that it had taken control of roads leading to the Tripoli airport and was set for major battles for main areas of the Libyan capital. The news comes a day after information surfaced that the rival Tripoli-based government has officially requested military aid from Turkey. "The LNA is advancing after violent clashes on roads that lead to the center of the capital. The GNA retreated leaving bodies lying on the road to Tripoli airport", the LNA wrote on Facebook, as quoted by Al Arabiya. LNA spokesman Ahmed Mismari, in turn, told the TV channel said that the next few hours would surprise all those following the developments in ...
Yemen's lifeline threatened by attacks on aid groups

After almost five years of war, millions of Yemenis have become reliant on aid for survival, but they now fear they'll be cut off from this crucial lifeline after attacks on international aid groups operating in their country. A number of international non-governmental organisations (INGOs) have suspended their work in Al-Dhale’e region after their offices were attacked with rocket-propelled grenades over the weekend. The attacks in southwest Yemen follow a campaign carried out against the aid groups, accusing them of being "enemies of Islam" and using their work as a front for missionary work. Fahd, a teacher who preferred not to use his real name, told Middle East ...

It’s always good to get up at dawn to walk around, for you’ll see a less guarded, composed and worn out version of humanity. They’ll still have the rest of the day to blunder, lapse, commit a crime or jump off a bridge. Passing a Nha Trang park, I spot middle aged broads dancing the cha-cha-cha, and an old man clapping his hands loudly as he sternly strolls around its perimeter. Like everybody else, Vietnamese are more or less insane. Always grumbling about the Chinese, they pray daily to Chinese gods. Ducking into a cafe, I promptly email my friend Niccolo Brachelente in Okinawa, “I’ve been in Nha Trang for a few days. It’s my first close look at this city. ...
Trump Exposes Pelosi And Son's Ties To Ukraine-Linked Energy Grou

Well, this is a little awkward... Having earlier called Speaker Nancy Pelosi “desperate," a clearly frustrated President Trump told reporters this week, following a video teleconference with U.S. troops, “she hates the Republican Party. She hates all of the people that voted for me and the Republican Party." Marc Short, chief of staff to Vice President Pence, said of Trump on “Fox News Sunday.” “He's frustrated [with] what he found to be a completely unreasonable impeachment.” And that frustration boiled over as the president tweeted a link to something that the Democrats may have trouble fully explaining... "Wow Crazy Nancy, ...
Is there a future for Russian aircraft carriers?
Post Date: 2019-12-28 19:47:17 by Ada

Those following the news from Russia have probably heard that Russia’s only aircraft carrier, the Admiral Kuznetsov (official name: Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Kuznetsov), was put into dry dock for major repairs and retrofits. Things did not go well. First, the dry dock sank (it was Russia’s biggest) and then a huge crane came crashing down on the deck. And just to make it even worse, a fire broke out on the ship killing 2 and injuring more. With each setback, many observers questioned the wisdom of pouring huge sums of money into additional repairs when just the scheduled ones would cost a lot of money and take a lot of time. Actually, the damage from the fire was ...
Trump Threatens Syria: Will POTUS Come to the Rescue of Al-Qaeda Terrorists in Idlib?

Trump wished the Syrian Arab Republic a belated Merry Christmas by tweeting yet another threat, warning the Syrian Armed Forces not to liberate Idlib from the approximately 10,000 al Qaeda terrorists who have occupied this area of the country, since the beginning of the crisis. Surely the 45th President of the USA knows these stats, supported even by the same UN that also wails for al Qaeda on a regular basis. Surely Trump heard Special Presidential Envoy to the alleged anti-Daesh Global Coalition, Brett McGurk when he emphatically stated that Idlib province is the largest al Qaeda safe haven since 9/11.

Syria is apparently pondering filing a lawsuit against the United States over the oil that the orange man has stolen from them. RT: Syria’s government is considering suing the United States in an international court over what a senior advisor to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad referred to as the ‘stealing’ of Syria’s oil. “Syria is looking into the possibility of filing an international lawsuit against the United States, due to the fact that they steal Syrian oil,” Bouthaina Shaaban, Syrian Presidential Adviser, told Beirut-based Al-Mayadeen TV in an interview, carried by Iran’s Fars news agency. After a surprise announcement of pulling the US ...
Mexico: Police Chief Arrested in Connection to Killing of Mormon Family

“Now I’ll tell you about the part where we colonize Mexico…” Mormonism was a religion created specifically to survive a collapse of the United States of America. But was conquering Mexico part of their plan? If it was part of their plan, I don’t think it was really a very good part of that plan. The Guardian: Mexican authorities have arrested a municipal police chief for his suspected links to the killing of three women and six children of US-Mexican origin in northern Mexico last month, local media and an official said on Friday. Suspected drug cartel hitmen shot dead the nine women and children from families of Mormon origin in Sonora state on 4 November, ...

According to experts, climate change will result in “millions” of deaths, major European cities being sunken, nuclear war and global environmental riots…all within the next 5 days. That’s because they made the prediction back in 2004 and said all that would happen by 2020, which is just 5 days away. “Climate change over the next 20 years could result in a global catastrophe costing millions of lives in wars and natural disasters,” reported left-wing newspaper the Guardian on February 22, 2004. “A secret report, suppressed by US defence chiefs and obtained by The Observer, warns that major European cities will be sunk beneath rising seas as Britain is ...

For most of this decade owning gold and gold-related investments has required the patience of Job, and the sector is so obscure that it is hard to be sure of anything. But for months now the unusual developments have been piling up so much that it may be possible to regain some optimism. There are indications of a shortage of metal not just at the New York Commodities Exchange, where for months now most contracts have been settled through a supposedly “emergency” procedure called “exchange for physicals,” but also in London, the hub of the world gold market, where the usual flow of metal to Switzerland recently reversed, with metal flowing back to London amid ...

Poster Comment:15 bridges in the New Madrid fault area would collapse in a New Madrid earthquake and disrupt food and fuel traffic. The New Madrid fault runs from St Louis to Memphis. Quakes here could cost the economy $600 billion and more. Half of the people of Memphis and St Louis could be homeless. The black population of Metro St Louis is 519,000. 1,371,110 people people live in the Metro Memphis area and the majority ( i.e. over 675,000 are black). It would be very difficult to relocate that many people of any race with no infrastructure and no food and monetary resources. They could try sending them all to FEMA camps.

Social Media and Social Control: How Silicon Valley Serves the US State Department

Facebook isn’t the only Silicon Valley firm with partisan oversight of what we see: the bipartisan billionaire class and their security state have partnered with tech firms since the dawn of the internet to control the parameters of users’ thinking. Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg is in the spotlight for “dining with far-right figures,” and their influence over the information that appears in your feed is apparent. However, Facebook isn’t the only Silicon Valley firm that’s masquerading as nonpartisan as it curates the “facts” you see in ads, posts, or searches: Google, Twitter, Microsoft, and others are deeply wedded to the U.S. security state and ...

The Emperor of Japan tried to surrender to FDR as early as 1936. Admiral Canaris, head of Abwehr, and General Beck, Chief of the German Military staff tried to surrender in March of 1939 offering to arrest Hitler to stop the coming war. But the two men they sent to London were denied any serious attention. Admiral Canaris leaked through a Dutch diplomat Hitler's plans to invade Poland. Those plans were then forwarded to the French and British governments. The British government told the Poles not to call up all of their reserves. The Germans might have had better weapons than the Poles but they were greatly out numbered by the combined forces of France and Poland. Hitler had censored ...
Fearing US Policy Shift, Saudis Start Talking to Enemies

Saudis make a big move from confrontation to negotiation Saudi Arabian foreign policy in recent years has been informed by having absolute, unquestioned US support. This has driven mounting hostility toward Iran, and was why he Saudis figured they could declare Qatar “the enemy” with impunity. Saudi officials are starting to second-guess themselves, however, between the US not scrapping ties with Qatar, and not unilaterally attacking Iran any of the many times the Saudis argued there was a pretext to do so. This has forced them to revise a very confrontational foreign policy to one with negotiation. That’s a huge shift, and the most apparent signs of a Saudi shift are ...
