Placing the USA on a Collapse Continuum with Dmitry Orlov

The West is rotting! Yes, maybe, but what a nice smell… Old Soviet joke The word ‘catastrophe‘ has several meanings, but in its original meaning in Greek the word means a “sudden downturn” (in Greek katastroph ‘overturning, sudden turn,’ from kata- ‘down’ + stroph ‘turning’). As for the word “superpower” it also has several possible definitions, but my preferred one is this one “Superpower is a term used to describe a state with a dominant position, which is characterized by its extensive ability to exert influence or project power on a global scale. This is done through the combined-means of economic, ...

presstv... Afghanistan will not allow the United States to use its bases in the country to conduct any act of aggression against Iran, says a top Afghan diplomat. “Relations with neighbors are of special significance to the Afghan government in Kabul. Therefore, we will never allow the US to use its military bases against our neighbors such as Iran and Pakistan,” said Abdul Rahim Sayed Jan, Afghan ambassador to Turkey. “The presence of US bases in Afghanistan has always been a source of concern for our neighbors, although, in line with the Afghan government’s agreement with the US, Washington can never use these bases against our neighbors,” added the envoy in ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Commander of the Iranian Navy Rear Admiral Hossein Khanzadi announced the country's plans to dispatch a flotilla of warships to the Atlantic Ocean and launch a new home-made submarine in the near future. "God willing, this mission (to Atlantic Ocean) will start soon.

He also said that Fateh submarine which is the first mid-class submarine built by Iran would join the Navy on January 29, expressing the hope that Damavand destroyer will be reconstructed and launched by the end of ...

Leftists are fully immersing themselves in 132 minutes of hate

Leftists are fully immersing themselves in 132 minutes of hate L. Brent Bozell III on Jan 11, 2019 Anyone catching the television ads for the Dick Cheney-trashing movie "Vice" found a heavy promotion of the surprising six Golden Globe nominations it received from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The affirmation also became the "news hook" for press interviews with the director and the actors to weaponize it politically. Sadly for them, only actor Christian Bale won an award, for gaining 40 pounds and talking out of the side of his mouth like the Penguin in a Batman movie. This year's Golden Globes were refreshingly devoid of obnoxious left-wing ...

Trump’s Hail Mary Becomes Bolton’s Nightmare
Post Date: 2019-01-12 14:38:38 by Ada
17 Comments
National Security Advisor John Bolton is making the rounds in the Middle East to try and salvage what’s left of the long-standing plan to balkanize Syria and overthrow President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of President Trump’s announced troop withdrawal. What began as a political Hail Mary for Trump has morphed into a foreign policy quagmire for Bolton and the bloody-minded neoconservatives he is the tip of the spear for. Bolton first met fellow war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu to announce their conditions under which US troops would leave Syria. The big sticking point was getting the Turks to guarantee the safety of the Kurdish militia, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), that ...

An Agenda Unveiled: How Reuters Joined the US GovernmentÂ’s Offensive Against Iran
Post Date: 2019-01-11 10:56:37 by Ada
0 Comments
A 2013 Reuters report on Iran’s Setad has been cited in four books and was recently used to justify more sanctions on Iran by Mike Pompeo, but a look into the report’s sources and accuracy reveal questionable journalism and a clear agenda. Ever since the beginning of Iran’s 1979 revolution, the United States has been leading a propaganda campaign against the country, minimizing its own harmful role in key historical events, justifying an ousted monarchal t regime, and demonizing its new political system. Frequently it is done in lighter forms, such as constant criticism of the new government or even claiming the new government is as bad as the previous one, but the methods ...

"We Don't Take Orders From Bolton": US Withdrawal From Syria Begins
Post Date: 2019-01-11 10:52:20 by Horse
1 Comments
Contrary to assurances from Trump's National Security Advisor, neocon John Bolton, and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who suggested earlier this week that US troops would remain in Syria for at least a little while longer, the Associated Press reported on Friday that the US has begun the process of removing the 2,000 soldiers based in northeastern Syria. Citing information provided by activists with the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the withdrawal officially began Thursday night local time. A convoy of about 10 armored vehicles and some trucks left the town of Rmeilan into drove into Iraq. Col. Sean Ryan, spokesman for the coalition fighting the Islamic State group, later ...

Yellow Vest Movement Spreads to Australia & Poland

We are witnessing the Yellow Vest Movement now also spreading to Australia. We are seeing the rise there and in Canada also against Fake News that the media is desperately fighting Trump on who now label him an idiot in headlines. We are also witnessing a backlash against taking in the Muslim claimed refugees from Syria in Australia as well. It is not a matter of race, but culture. People who traveled to Paris from the USA this summer have often returned with horror stories of being robbed on the street, cell phones, jewelry, purses being stolen by people on motorcycles. Muslim women begging on every corner of the Champs-Élysées. The culture clash is the problem. These ...

Making Sense of Trump’s Foreign Policy

If Trump betrays his constituents by not delivering on his campaign promises, then he would simply be like any other politician who, upon being elected, soon forgets about those who put him in office. As was to be expected, the announcement that the US was withdrawing troops from Syria has served to provoke numerous reactions in the Middle East and beyond. Following the removal of Mattis, Pompey and Bolton embarked on a whirlwind Middle Eastern tour of Israel, Jordan, Egypt, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Kuwait to reassure regional allies. The idea of withdrawing US troops from Syria was based on Trump wishing to fulfil one of his most important ...

Zarif scolds Pompeo: Wherever US goes, chaos follows

PressTV... Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has countered US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's claims that "when America retreats, chaos often follows," saying actually the opposite is true. “Whenever/wherever US interferes, chaos, repression, and resentment follow,” Zarif tweeted on Thursday in response to Pompeo's remarks in Egypt which raised eyebrows in the United States and abroad. Pompeo described the US as a “force for good” in the Middle East in a speech at the American University in Cairo, which contradicted President Donald Trump's announcement last month to pull troops out of the region. Pompeo accused former US ...

PressTV... Russia says India will receive “without any delays” the advanced Russian-built S-400 air defense missile systems under a contract signed between Moscow and New Delhi some four months ago. “Our commitments under the contract will be fulfilled. India will receive the systems on time, at the agreed date and without any delays,” said Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov at a press conference on Wednesday. The senior diplomat also stressed that the missile systems — one of Russia’s most advanced anti-aircraft weapons — would significantly strengthen India’s air defense capability. During a visit to India on October 5 last year, ...

Something very strange is happening to Earth's magnetic North Pole and no one knows why
Post Date: 2019-01-10 19:34:49 by Horse

Planet Earth is alive. Deep beneath its skin, its life blood — rivers of molten iron — pulse around its core. And this mobile iron is what generates the magnetic field that causes auroras — and keeps us alive. But, according to the science journal Nature, something strange is going on deep down below. It’s causing the magnetic North Pole to ‘skitter’ away from Canada, towards Siberia. “The magnetic pole is moving so quickly that it has forced the world’s geomagnetism experts into a rare move,” Nature reports. On January 30 (delayed due to the US Government shutdown), the World Magnetic Model — which governs modern navigation systems ...

How a NeoCon-Backed “Fact Checker” Plans to Wage War on Independent Media

As Newsguard’s project advances, it will soon become almost impossible to avoid this neocon-approved news site’s ranking systems on any technological device sold in the United States. MINNEAPOLIS — Soon after the social media “purge” of independent media sites and pages this past October, a top neoconservative insider — Jamie Fly — was caught stating that the mass deletion of anti-establishment and anti-war pages on Facebook and Twitter was “just the beginning” of a concerted effort by the U.S. government and powerful corporations to silence online dissent within the United States and beyond. While a few, relatively uneventful months in the ...

If Trump Isn’t Planning to Draw Down U.S. Intervention in Somalia, He Should Be
Post Date: 2019-01-10 09:15:56 by Ada

This is not a battle crucial to American security. The United States has maintained some degree of military presence inside Somalia for much of the last three decades, but a pattern of escalation that began late in former President Barack Obama's second term has markedly accelerated in the two years since President Donald Trump took office. Airstrikes are on the rise; hundreds of U.S. boots are on the ground; and Trump's March 2017 decision to designate portions of Somalia as "areas of active hostility" means military operations can proceed with less oversight and greater tolerance for civilian casualties. Somalia is thus, for all intents and purposes, another addition ...

Meet All of the Ways the U.S. Navy Could Sink China's Aircraft Carriers

The U.S. Navy, then, will deploy no single carrier-kiIIer weapon. It will deploy many. Coupled with submarine warfare and naval aviation, newfangled surface-warfare implements will stand the U.S. Navy in good stead for blue-water engagements by 2020. Ah, yes, the “carrier-kiIIer.” China is forever touting the array of guided missiIes its weaponeers have devised to pummel U.S. Navy nucIear-powered aircraft carriers (CVNs). Most prominent among them are its DF-21D and DF-26 antiship ballistic missiIes (ASBMs), which the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) has made a mainstay of China’s anti-access/area-denial (A2/AD) defense. Beijing has made believers of important ...

P · Jan 8, 2019 Gulf between US and Turkey could widen on Kurdish issue. President Erdogan declines to meet NSA John Bolton in Ankara. Venugopal Vengalil @vgmenon99 True sir . A covert alignment of Israel with GCC countries ( xmt Qatar and Oman ) will add a new BOP equation in the middle east . Iran , Turkey , Qatar and possibly Lebanon would team up against Saudi and the rest of the GCC ( Oman maintaining a neutral stand ) This is not what Saudi Arabia and Israel had in mind when they openly backed terrorist groups in Syria at the beginning of the deadly Syrian conflict. Back then, Riyadh and the Tel Aviv regime supported the militants, calling them "rebels" who fought ...

Turkey: US Must Hand Over All Military Bases in Syria

Officials ask for 22 bases to be given to Turkey or destroyed While a lot of the details of the US withdrawal from Syria and the Turkish invasion of Syria still aren’t entirely clear, Turkey sees a big opportunity. The US has 22 military bases in Syria they presumably will no longer need, and Turkey wants them. Turkey’s National Security Adviser Ibrahim Kalin has reportedly asked the US to agree to cede all of the bases to the Turkish military, or failing that agree to destroy them outright before they leave. The US bases are embedded across Syrian Kurdish territory, exactly where Turkey is invading. The goal here for Turkey is likely to ensure that the US doesn’t simply ...

Mairead Maguire, has today written to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee in Oslo to nominate Julian Assange, Editor-in-Chief of Wikileaks, for the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize. In her letter to the Nobel Peace Committee, Ms. Maguire said: “Julian Assange and his colleagues in Wikileaks have shown on numerous occasions that they are one of the last outlets of true democracy and their work for our freedom and speech. Their work for true peace by making public our governments’ actions at home and abroad has enlightened us to their atrocities carried out in the name of so-called democracy around the world. This included footage of inhumanity carried out by NATO/Military, the release of ...

Trump Is Starting to Take Risks to Keep His Anti-Establishment Campaign Promises. But Is It Too Late?

He's finally moved from barking to biting As Donald Trump enters the third year of his presidency, he is finally breaking free of the Beltway stranglehold and moving towards fulfilling the campaign promises that unambiguously distinguished him from the 16 candidates he defeated in the Republican primaries. Trump has called for a U.S. withdrawal from Syria. He is contemplating major troop reductions in Afghanistan. He is in the midst of a major fight over immigration at home—one he had previously avoided—and is battling China on trade abroad. When Defense Secretary James Mattis resigned, Trump moved up Mattis’s departure date and told a reporter he ...

China Overrated by Right-Wing Kooks

These Crazies Are Just Like Hitler One often sees the silly assertion by right-wing extremists that feminists, social justice warriors, and other “cranks” are enstupidating American education. The purpose, according to these fascists, who are just like Hitler, is “to make historically incompetent groups look competent.” The racism in these absurd claims is obvious. In particular such Neo-Nazis say that mathematical education is being destroyed to benefit “retards.” This “dumbing down,” they say, will hand the future to China. This is conservative drivel. Nothing suggests that China is gaining on the US in science and technology, except the ...
