The U.S. is now the common enemy and a new axis is working to make it irrelevant. The American foreign policy Blob’s latest worry is that Venezuela’s radical leftist government is reaching out to the Middle East for support against growing pressure from Washington. Specifically, President Nicolás Maduro is reportedly trying to establish extensive political and financial links with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and his ally in Lebanon, Hezbollah. The latter has repeatedly condemned U.S. policy towards Maduro, and already appears to have shadowy economic ties to Caracas. There are indications that Maduro’s regime may be utilizing Hezbollah to launder funds from the ...

Revolutions can’t abide by stale old ideas like rule of law. Saudi Arabia Bankrolling Haftar's Bid To Seize All Of Libya by Tyler Durden Sat, 04/13/2019 - 07:35 “Haftar would not be a player today without the foreign support he has received,” a Libyan affairs expert told The Wall Street Journal in a new lengthy profile of the Benghazi-based General Khalifa Haftar, whose Libyan National Army (LNA) is advancing this week on Tripoli. As Haftar consolidated power over much of the country's war ravaged east, also making huge gains in the past year over the south, he's all along enjoyed the political backing of an unlikely assortment of powerful countries that ...

At the turn of the century, the internet became one of humanity’s greatest gifts, a source of personal freedom and power. The internet unleashed endless opportunities for communication, commerce, and information sharing. Not only did the internet decentralize news, but it offered a platform for anyone to create and speak freely. Two decades later, the internet has become a contentious place, with Tech giants, corporations, political activists, and governments all clamoring to control the flow of information, to stifle free speech, and to use personal data to exploit consumer’s purchasing habits and voting preferences. Facebook has already implemented a plan to weed out ...

The 7 Years Of Lies About Assange Won't Stop Now

For seven years, from the moment Julian Assange first sought refuge in the Ecuadorean embassy in London, they have been telling us we were wrong, that we were paranoid conspiracy theorists. We were told there was no real threat of Assange’s extradition to the United States, that it was all in our fevered imaginations. For seven years, we have had to listen to a chorus of journalists, politicians and “experts” telling us that Assange was nothing more than a fugitive from justice, and that the British and Swedish legal systems could be relied on to handle his case in full accordance with the law. Barely a “mainstream” voice was raised in his defence in all that time. ...

Sen. Rick Scott wants the U.S. military to deliver aid in Venezuela Vice President Mike Pence joins Venezuela’s interim President Juan Guaidó in Colombia as he leads dozens of Venezuelan families who fled the country in the singing of their national anthem. After Nicolás Maduro blocked humanitarian aid from entering Venezuela in February, the U.S. and others responded with sanctions. But nearly two months later, much of the aid continues to sit at the Venezuela-Colombia border. Now, Florida Sen.

Russia Says 'New World Order' Being Formed by Kremlin Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov declared today that the Western, liberal model of society is dying, and a new world order is taking its place. Lavrov made the comments at his annual meeting with students and professors at the Foreign Ministry’s Diplomatic Academy, reported Russian state news agency TASS. “The Western liberal model of development, which particularly stipulates a partial loss of national sovereignty – this is what our Western colleagues aimed at when they invented what they called globalization – is losing its attractiveness and is no more viewed as a perfect model for all.

The U.S. Government’s Indictment of Julian Assange Poses Grave Threats to Press Freedom
Post Date: 2019-04-13 07:48:53 by Ada
2 Comments
The indictment of Julian Assange unsealed today by the Trump Justice Department poses grave threats to press freedoms, not only in the U.S. but around the world. The charging document and accompanying extradition request from the U.S. government, used by the U.K. police to arrest Assange once Ecuador officially withdrew its asylum protection, seeks to criminalize numerous activities at the core of investigative journalism. So much of what has been reported today about this indictment has been false. Two facts in particular have been utterly distorted by the DOJ and then misreported by numerous media organizations. The first crucial fact about the indictment is that its key allegation ...

France is willing to consider offering WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange asylum if he requests it from them. When asked about Julian Assange during a local radio program, France’s Secretary of State for European affairs, Amelie de Montchalin, said “we should listen to what he wants to do.” Assange’s French lawyer, Juan Branco, has asked President Emmanuel Macron to bring the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize nominated publisher to France to avoid extradition, according to a report from the New York Post. The Ecuadorian government allowed UK authorities to enter their embassy and arrest Assange after revoking his asylum in exchange for a hefty IMF loan.

TEHRAN (FNA)- It is about time the international civil society investigated US troops war crimes in Afghanistan. The problem is that the United States has already withdrawn both from the Human Rights Council in Geneva and the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization in Paris while, at the same time, it has either cut off, or drastically reduced, funding for the UN Population Fund, the UN Relief and Works Agency, and for UN peacekeeping operations. This makes it difficult to hold the country to account at any international tribunal. The most recent US attack has been directed at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in the Hague which was planning to investigate war crimes ...
