John Bolton Just Did a Complete 180 on His Russia Stance After Meeting with Putin

Trump's stroke of brilliance is paying off. By making Bolton responsible for talking to Russia he has neutralized the neocon's worst tendencies Insider: National security adviser John Bolton once said Russia's election interference was a "true act of war" against the US, and that a policy based on trusting Russia was "doomed to failure." Bolton's tune changed completely after he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday. He also said President Donald Trump and Putin will likely discuss Trump's recent calls for Russia to be readmitted to the G7 alliance. When confronted by a reporter about his shift on Russia, Bolton said he would ...

Originally Trump invited Putin to Washington, instead the meeting will be held in a neutral country -- and without any preconditions for Russia to fulfill as the US at one point demanded Translated by Ollie Richardson and Angelina Siard at Stalker Zone The world press is being filled with noise about a meeting on the 15th of July between Putin and Trump in Vienna. The Kremlin neither confirms nor denies whether there is a meeting [at the time of writing this was true, however the Kremlin has since confirmed the there will be a meeting on July 16th – ed], and diplomats from both sides allegedly coordinate their positions. July 15th is a date that is inconvenient for the Russian ...

Europe is facing the most significant refugee crisis since World War II. All attempts at resolving the issue have failed, mostly because they have ignored the root causes of the problem. On June 11, Italy’s new Interior Minister, Matteo Salvini, blocked the Aquarius rescue ship, carrying 629 refugees and economic migrants, from docking at its ports. A statement by Doctors without Borders (MSF) stated that the boat was carrying 123 unaccompanied minors and seven pregnant women. “From now on, Italy begins to say NO to the traffic of human beings, NO to the business of illegal immigration,” said Salvini, who also heads the far-right League Party. The number of refugees was ...

PressTV... The US has acknowledged that oil prices would jump once sanctions on Iran are implemented but says it will not tap into its own reserves to meet a likely supply gap and would instead wait for Russia and Saudi Arabia to increase their outputs. US Energy Secretary Rick Perry was quoted by media as saying that the global oil market "is going to be stressed" when US sanctions against buyers of Iranian crude return in November. Perry emphasized that the US government was confident that increased production from Saudi Arabia and Russia could meet the supply gap.

After all the hype, Bitcoin can only process 1/1000th the number of transactions as VISA… cryptos “fatally flawed” warns report

The concept behind a peer-to-peer digital currency that’s controlled by the people rather than a private central bank is highly appealing in this day and age of ever-rising inflation. But the practical use of cryptocurrency is a completely different story, particularly with Bitcoin, which a new reportsays simply can’t be properly scaled for widespread use. The Bank of International Settlements (BIS) says that, when it comes to using Bitcoin as money, the sheer amount of energy and computing power required to complete transactions is too astronomical to work on a global scale. Some major changes to the platform would thus be necessary, in other words, to make using Bitcoin as ...

Colombia’s Minister of Defense says the country will reinstate the policy of eradicating its coca production with glyphosate, this time with the help of drones. Luis Carlos Villegas announced on Monday that the government will reinstate its practice of fumigating the illicit crops with glyphosate, an herbicide that Colombia’s Constitutional Court prohibited in 2015 arguing it threatens the health of local communities and the environment. Villegas, trying to quell fears regarding the chemical’s negative health impacts, said that by using drones to disperse the Roundup creates “half the concentration of the poison that the planes had," saying that "the risks to ...

"A large chunk of human history is about to get trampled and despoiled. Having spent the last several decades resurrecting Eastern Christendom after the damage caused to it by the Bolshevik barbarians, they watch with dismay as the relics and ruins of Western Christendom are becoming submerged by a new barbarian wave."

There are two countries that more than others show how the Western world order is undergoing a profound change. Japan and Turkey occupy two distinct and diverse geographical areas, yet they share many of the same strategic choices about their future. Their geopolitical trajectory is increasingly drifting away from Washington and moving closer to China, Russia, India and Iran. Both Japan and Turkey are two important states in the US’s strategy for controlling the Middle East and Asia-Pacific. Both countries have economies that are competitive in comparison to their neighbors, and both often conveniently find themselves allied to countries within Washington’s orbit. Japan has a ...

"On international flights you were permitted two free stopovers prior to your destination. If you were going to Athens, Greece, for example, you could first visit Paris and then Rome. It worked both ways, over and back. So one air ticket, six cities." I remember when America was a free country. You could get on an airliner without an ID. Driving licenses didn’t even have photos. If a friend was coming through your city on a flight and had a few hours layover, you could meet them inside the airport for lunch or dinner. You could meet friends, children, and relatives at the gate or see them off at the gate. Parents could actually put children on the plane and grandparents ...

Hillary Clinton, US imperialism, and criminal cronyism As tens of thousands gather at our southern border, roiling US politics, the question arises: why are so many of the asylum-seekers and migrants crossing the border illegally from three Central American countries in particular: El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala? To begin with, it’s no coincidence that these are the three “most invaded” countries south of the Rio Grande – that is, invaded by the United States and its proxies. The Reagan years saw the apex of US intervention in the region, with fear of Communist “infiltration” motivating massive US aid to local despots and right-wing death squads ...
Bill Gates quietly funding effort to develop thousands of new vaccines that conveniently ‘might’ become pandemics

Bill and Melinda Gates, via their Gates Foundation, have donated billions of dollars to fund new vaccines—medicines that, in fact, have caused great harm to a great number of people. But with about a million viruses in existence that we still know nothing about, it’s likely that the Gates Foundation and other globalists will pour more resources into developing new vaccines that will work to reduce the population. That seems inconceivable on its face, but when you examine the facts and some of Bill Gates’ own statements, you’ll discover for yourself that is exactly the plan. As reported by The Week, since the dawn of Man, viruses have had deadly effects on populations, ...

THE MOST COMPLICATED BATTLE OF SOUTHERN SYRIA: US FORCES UNDER THREAT DUE TO ISRAELI INTERFERENCE

The battle for southern Syria is one of the most complicated battles undertaken by the Syrian army and its allies during the seven years of war imposed on the Levant. The beginning of the battle and the decision of Damascus to initiate it, disregarding Israel’s opposition, was largely and exclusively covered in previous articles. This battle is not expected to end soon and for this reason, it was decided by the parties concerned to divide it into two steps, and to postpone the complicated second part bordering Israel pending more “storming talks” between the two superpowers, according to well-informed sources in Daraa. The first step of the southern battle was agreed between ...

Nicaragua’s unlikely opposition faces rocky road to defeat Ortega By Staff Writer 1 day ago MANAGUA, (Reuters) – Lesther Aleman, a lanky and bespectacled 20-year-old student, had never taken part in a protest until April when he became the public face of a revolt that has shaken the rule of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega. The straight-’A’s student won national fame when in a live broadcast he called Ortega a “murderer” for the violent repression of protests that left more than 200 people dead. The crackdown reawakened memories of Nicaragua’s decade-long civil war that ended in 1990. Aleman and another 40 student leaders, some still in their ...

Of the 857 million guns owned by civilians, the Small Arms Survey says 393.3 million are held in the United States, which is “more than those held by civilians in the other top 25 countries combined.” To clarify - there are more civilian-owned guns in the US than there are people.

When I see a crying child on my screen, I know somebody is trying to take advantage of me. The same is true about every appeal to my basic human instincts, whether it is a naked female body or a dead baby. Instead of convincing me, such a cheap trick calls for immediate rejection. I know that this voluptuous body will not land into my hands even if I buy all Coca Cola in the shop. The sight of dead babies will not convince me to do something against common sense, for it is manipulation. In politics, I want a Socratic discussion, not emotional persuasion. If you can’t persuade me by words, do not try to do that with pictures. However, they try and often succeed. Words can be pretty ...
