As a former soldier and war correspondent, I abhor demonstrations of flag- waving, militarism and nationalism. That great American, Benjamin Franklin, put it perfectly: ‘no good war, no bad peace.’ But I must admit that my heart does beat faster when I hear the rousing strains of France’s glorious national anthem, ‘La Marseillaise.’ One must be almost dead not to respond to the hymn, first known in 1775 as ‘the war song of the army of the Rhine’ and then the marching song of volunteers from Marseille. Allons! Enfants de la Patrie! Forward! Sons of France, Le jour de gloire est arrivé! The Day of Glory has Arrived, Contre nous de la tyrannie, ...
The G20 From Hell

A future history of the G20 in Hamburg might start with a question posed by President Donald Trump – actually his speechwriter – a few days earlier in Warsaw: “The fundamental question of our time is whether the West has the will to survive." What initially amounted to a juvenile/reductionist clash of civilizations tirade written by Stephen Miller – the same one who penned the "American carnage" epic on Trump’s inauguration as well as the original Muslim travel ban – might actually have founded some answers in Hamburg. The G20 as a whole was a noxious military dystopia disguised as a global summit. “Welcome to Hell” and other ...

Pravda.Ru Main Forum sputniknews....eli-plan-syria/ The United States and Israel were jointly preparing a military operation in Syria but the plan was abandoned following reports about S-400 missile defense systems put on combat alert in the region, according to Syrian political adviser Suleiman al Suleiman. According to the adviser, the operation was planned to be carried on July 2-4. "The operation was cancelled after reports emerged that Russia's S-400 missile defense systems and a missile attack warning system had been activated in Syria," al-Suleiman said in an interview with Sputnik Arabic. Moscow deployed the S-400 system to Syria after in November 2015 a Turkish ...

Kim Jong Un Sends North Korean Slaves To Russia To Earn Cash For Regime If you didn’t think he was crazy enough already… Via Fox News: Brutal North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is shipping tens of thousands of impoverished citizens to Russia for the hard currency his cash-strapped regime desperately needs, Fox News has found. Alarmed human rights groups say the North Korea workers in Russia are little more than slaves, subjected to everything from cruel and violent acts to ruthless exploitation at the hands of corrupt officials, while being forced to turn over large chunks of their pay to the North Korean government. A report issued earlier this year by the Seoul-based Data Base ...

PressTV... A senior official with Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement has said that the resistance group will “surprise” Israel in any future war, relying on its enhanced military capabilities. In an interview with Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV channel on the 11th anniversary of the Second Lebanon War, head of Hezbollah’s Executive Council Sayyed Hashem Safieddine noted that the resistance group has been changing and developing new military capabilities. Safieddine said that Israeli reports on Hezbollah’s weaponry are “inaccurate as the enemy intelligence agencies can never reach veracious data in this context.” The Kuwaiti Al-Jarida newspaper reported last ...
Turkey Chooses Russian Air Defense Over NATO Alternatives

S-400 Won't Be Compatible With Other NATO Systems It’s generally assumed that NATO member nations are going to import their weapons from NATO arms dealers, which pretty much always means the United States, with a few small deals for Britain and France. Turkey however, is going a different way on air defense, signing a deal to buy a $2.5 billion S-400 system from Russia. Since the whole rest of the NATO alliance is night and day building up military forces on the Russian frontier, such a purchase is raising more than a few eyebrows, and not just because they aren’t going to buy a more expensive alternative from Raytheon or Lockheed. The deal means Turkey’s new air ...

He scores two takedowns in two days Oh, it was glorious fun, yielding the kind of satisfaction that us anti- interventionists rarely get to enjoy: not one but two prominent neoconservatives who have been wrong about everything for the past decade – yet never held accountable – getting taken down on national television. Tucker Carlson, whose show is a shining light of reason in a fast-darkening world, has performed a public service by demolishing both Ralph Peters and Max Boot on successive shows. But these two encounters with evil weren’t just fun to watch, they’re also highly instructive for what they tell us about the essential weakness of the War Party and its ...

Imagery from June appears to show a small airstrip in southern Syria near the border with Jordan and Iraq—that’s in addition to a drone base in northeastern Jordan and scores more. In 2013, when the United States first considered intervening in the Syria war, teams of U.S. Air Force commandos scouted out, across the Middle East, no fewer than 300 potential sites for new bases to support a possible intervention force. Since then, the Pentagon has established or expanded scores of bases in Syria, Jordan, and Iraq, among many other countries. Now we’ve located what appear to be another two new bases—one in Jordan near the border with Syria, and another a short distance ...

The culture was rotting before the waves came. The Strange Death of Europe, Douglas Murray, Bloomsbury Continuum, 352 pages I recently attended a Brussels event on migration alongside young American and European researchers and activists. The musings of the guardians of human decency there would send average European voters fleeing towards the populist right. The argument was made that generous migration levels should stem not from compassion but be an indefinite manifestation of reparations for the crimes of Western civilization. Integration courses for new male migrants on sexual assault “stereotyped” their cultures, and the voluntary wearing of the Islamic niqab functioned ...
Don’t Be Fooled, There Is No ‘Diplomacy’ With North Korea

Some would prefer a preemptive attack. Trump Administration officials have made a rather public split with past efforts at diplomacy with North Korea. Yet they have continued to insist they intend to exhaust all possible options—including diplomatic ones—before taking some action to “solve” North Korea militarily. What sort of diplomatic approach is this? No approach at all. In reality, what the U.S. calls “diplomacy” in this case is contrary to the goals that underpin sincere diplomatic endeavors. Instead, they are carried out half-heartedly, with an explicit eye toward failure. This allows officials to claim they tried all options before taking the ...

Beijing says the base will be used for logistical purposes, such as resupplying ships taking part in peacekeeping and humanitarian missions. Ships carrying personnel from the People's Liberation Army (PLA) were dispatched to set up the base in Djibouti on Tuesday, state news agency Xinhua reported, declining to mention the number of troops that were deployed. Referring to the facility as a “support base,” the Chinese media outlet said its purpose will be to ensure China's successful performance of missions in the region, including peacekeeping ...

So what I keep hearing about that he would have rather had Trump, I think ‘probably not,’ because when I want a strong military, you know she wouldn’t have spent the money on military,” Trump ...

It was a spooky sight: two lifelike disembodied robot torsos discussing the pros and cons of humans in front of a nervously tittering audience in Hong Kong Wednesday. Artificial intelligence is the dominant theme at this year's sprawling RISE tech conference at the city's harbourfront convention centre, but the live robot exchange took the AI debate to another level. Handsome male humanoid Han, dressed in a pinstripe suit jacket, and his elegant sister Sophia, modelled on Audrey Hepburn, chatted onstage about life in the universe and everything, from their love of science fiction to their bewilderment at "silly" reality shows.

Poster Comment:The next time some moronic Zionist )Christian or Jewish) talks about winning a war with Russia-Iran ans Syria, please explain that the old Russian anti-missile and aircraft system (S-300) has rocketrs with Mach 12 speed. The Russians are deploying the S-600. The Iranians have the equivalent of the S-400. And Hezbollah has the ability to burn Haifa and Tel Aviv to the ground. And Hezbollah can shut down the Israeli electrical power grid for 6 months. And then tell them that Khibiny is the Russian Electronic Counter Measure Warfare system. It would shut down our radar and radio communications. It would make our ships in the Persian Gulf and the Mediterranean itting ducks. No ...

A little known Swedish-Canadian oil and mining conglomerate human rights groups have repeatedly charged produces “blood minerals” is among the Clinton Foundation’s biggest donors, thanks to a $100 million pledge in 2007, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation has found. “Blood minerals” are related to “blood diamonds,” which are allegedly mined in war zones or sold as commodities to help finance political insurgencies or despotic warlords. When the Vancouver, Canada-based Lundin Group gave its $100 million commitment to the “Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative,” the company had long been cutting deals with warlords, Marxist ...
