Security Ordered Tightened as Death Toll in Baghdad Hits 157 By sinan salaheddin, associated press BAGHDAD — Jul 4, 2016, 7:59 PM ET The Associated Press WATCH New Details on Bangladesh Terror Attack That Killed US College Students As the death toll from the weekend truck bombing in Baghdad climbed to 157, Iraq's embattled prime minister ordered new security measures, including abandoning the use of bomb-detection wands that U.S. experts pronounced worthless years ago. But security forces were still using the devices Monday evening, as a string of smaller bombings in the capital killed 16 people and wounded dozens more. Sunday's suicide attack by the Islamic State group ...

US Selling Saudis Heavy Weapons for Use Against Assad in Syria by Stephen Lendman Washington wants war, not peace in Syria, tyranny replacing its sovereign independence, another nation colonized - genocidal slaughter and mass destruction small considered small prices to pay. On America’s Independence Day, a time to agitate, not celebrate, Fars News reported Aleppo Joint Operations Room intelligence, indicating US arms manufacturers contracted to sell Riyadh “nearly one billion dollars of anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles (intended for) terrorist groups in Syria.” “Based on fresh information, a large volume of arms (including heavy ones) has been smuggled to ...

PressTV... More than 70 professors in Europe and North America have expressed concern over a UN decision to remove Saudi Arabia from its blacklist of child rights violators amid Riyadh’s military campaign in Yemen. In a letter to UN chief Ban Ki-moon, 73 professors expressed shock at “the brazen vulgarity of power that a single ruling family in one member state can assert against the entirety of the UN to prevent it from documenting war crimes and crimes against humanity.” The signatories, all professors of top universities including Harvard, Columbia, Georgetown, Princeton, Oxford and Cambridge, further pointed to the exclusion of Israel from a similar list. It is the ...

Terrorists ALWAYS get around useless “gun control” laws Jun 28, 2016 As good ole Kurt Russell has said, it’s “absolutely insane” to think gun control will stop terrorists. But many politicians and really ignorant people (oxymoron?) still seem to think that’s the case. But the truth is that terrorists will always get around any and all useless “gun control” laws. Today, I want to share with you some surprising info on how the terrorists in a Tel Aviv shooting did it. Gun Control Is 100% Useless In Stopping Terrorists As I pointed out in my article titled Why More Gun Control Will Not Stop Terrorist Attacks Like The Orlando Night Club Shooting, ...
Sanitized US Drone Report

Sanitized US Drone Report by Stephen Lendman US administration and congressional news releases reflecting badly on official policies most often occur at low news consumption periods. Late Friday, the Obama administration chose the start of the July 4 holiday weekend to release its sanitized drone report, an exercise in deception - when few people were paying attention. It’s not worth the paper it’s written on, fabricated to conceal revealing that drones used for military purposes are instruments of state terror. Independent studies show the vast majority of casualties are non-high value targets and noncombatant civilian men, women and children - indiscriminately slaughtered, ...

Hacked Emails Show Former NATO Boss Urged Conflict with Russia by Stephen Lendman An earlier article called former NATO Commander General Philip Breedlove a dangerous gunslinger, a real-life general Jack D. Ripper - Stanley Kubrick’s deranged character from his dark satire, titled “Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.” Hacked emails posted on the DCLeaks web site provide new insight. Privately he plotted aggressively behind Obama’s back, urging proxy war with Russia, using US-created conflict and instability in Ukraine following the administration’s coup as a pretext. He sought help from former high-level US military commanders, ...

US-Supported Terrorists Attack UN Humanitarian Convoy in Syria by Stephen Lendman A quick check spotted no scoundrel media reports - ready to falsely accuse Syrian and Russian forces of attacking civilian targets, virtually always carried out by US-backed terrorists. Syria’s conflict rages, peaceful resolution unattainable because Washington wants war, another country raped and destroyed, added to its trophy list - remaining unaccountable for genocidal crimes. According to Russia’s Defense Ministry, US-backed Jaysh al-Islam (Army of Islam) terrorists shelled a UN humanitarian convoy near Damascus - while desperately needed aid was being distributed to area residents. Earlier, ...

Putin and Assad Straight Talk on Syria by Stephen Lendman Both leaders are on the right side of history, deserving universal support, overwhelmingly popular at home, disgracefully vilified by Western officials and their scoundrel media echo chorus. Their remarks are candid and forthright, polar opposite Western officials’ double-talk, willful deception, their imperial agenda hostile to free societies. Russia honorably supports Syrian sovereignty and territorial integrity. On Thursday, Putin said the nation “found itself at the epicenter of the fight against terrorism.” “It is no exaggeration to say that the fate of this country does not only influence the future of ...

Phony US Outreach to Russia on Combating Terrorism in Syria by Stephen Lendman A neocon Washington Post article, reading like an administration press release, said it (likely through the State Department) proposed “deepen(ing) military cooperation” with Russia in combating terrorists in Syria - provided Moscow and Syria stop bombing “US-supported (so-called moderate) rebels.” Fact: No moderates exist. All armed groups at war with Syria and its people are US and other foreign-backed terrorists. Fact: Washington rejected earlier genuine Russian proposals for joint cooperation in fighting terrorists in Syria. Fact: Neocons infesting Washington want Assad toppled, Syria ...
WPost’s ‘Agit-Prop’ for the New Cold War

Exclusive: The Washington Post, the neocons’ media flagship, has fired a broadside at a new documentary after it blasted a hole in the side of the anti-Russian Magnitsky narrative, which helped launch the new Cold War, writes Robert Parry. A danger in today’s Western journalism is that the people in charge of the mainstream media are either neocon ideologues or craven careerists who will accept any official attack on geopolitical “enemies” without checking out the facts, such as with the Iraq War’s WMD myth or the curious case of Sergei Magnitsky. Magnitsky’s 2009 death in a Russian jail became a Western cause célèbre with the accountant for ...

Russia: America’s Sworn Adversary by Stephen Lendman It’s no secret. Longstanding US plans call for regime change, wanting Russian sovereign independence eliminated, hegemonic US control replacing it. Recklessly dangerous US provocations seem heading things inevitably toward confrontation, especially worrisome if neocon Hillary Clinton succeeds Obama, a longstanding Russia/Putin hater, favoring belligerence over diplomacy - likely to be more aggressive than troubling current administration policy. According to Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu, US-dominated NATO “more than doubled” its provocative actions near Russia’s border - deploy(ing about 1,200 pieces ...

Sixty-Seven Non-Military Federal Agencies are Stockpiling Weapons of WAR PHOTO CREDIT YOU TUBE SCREEN GRAB (FREEDOM FIGHTER TIMES) Why in the world would sixty-seven non-military federal agencies be stockpiling weapons of war? $1.48 billion was spent on guns, ammunition, and military-style equipment by the federal government to weaponize organizations such as the Smithsonian and the FDA. The organizations involved include and are not limited too: “Administrative agencies including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Small Business Administration (SBA), Smithsonian Institution, Social Security Administration, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, United States ...

Istanbul Blasts: Terrorism or False Flag? by Stephen Lendman It’s too early for a rush to judgment. Here’s what’s known. On Tuesday night, multiple blasts and automatic rifle fire, reportedly by three suicide bombers, rocked Istanbul’s Ataturk airport. Dozens were killed, over 230 injured. Was the incident terrorism or state-sponsored false flag deception to look that way? It’s too soon to know. Timing is often significant. Six years after Israeli commandos slaughtered 10 Turkish nationals aboard the Mavi Marmara Gaza Freedom Flotilla mother ship, Netanyahu and Erdogan normalized relations. Israel agreed to pay $20 million in reparations to surviving family ...
Trying to Finance a First Class Military with a Third Class Economy

Just keep telling yourselves Russia is a middle-class nation with sooper dooper weapons. In USD terms, Russia’s economy is smaller than Italy’s, smaller than Canada’s, smaller than Australia’s, smaller than California’s. None of those nations (or states in the case of California) attempts to build and maintain a world-bullying sized military, but it seems that Putin is determined to at least pretend to do it. How will the little big man set about this task? Borrow Money from China Russia has entered deficit spending territory to support its military rebuild, and must find creative ways to finance its deficits. Nominal deficits of $20 billion to $25 billion a ...
Was Tamerlan Tsarnaev a Double Agent Recruited by the FBI?

Omar Mateen had been on the FBI’s radar for some time before he opened fire at a nightclub in Florida, killing 49 and wounding 53 people. Now the public is asking why the FBI didn’t do something to prevent the tragedy. Glenn Greenwald responded with an article in The Washington Post, “The FBI Was Right Not to Arrest Omar Mateen Before the Shooting”. He warned that pressure on the FBI to be more pro-active will inevitably lead to more draconian anti-terror legislation and the loss of even more civil liberties in the name of preventing the unpreventable. But there is a legitimate reason to question the FBI. There are times when the Bureau seems to be playing dangerous ...

The CEO of Eastern securities admitted to the Post that images of these dead dogs were real.Photo: Facebook On June 17th, a horrific image began circulating on Facebook: a slew of dead dogs, 24 in all, massacred on the grounds of a US security company in Kuwait. Former employees of this company, Eastern Securities, as well as US dog vendors and the Kuwaiti government whistleblower who posted the photo, exclusively tell the Post of longstanding abuse of dogs in ES’s care — as well as the recruitment of impoverished workers from third-world nations who are then held against their will, without passports, work visas or cell phones. “They are a terrible, terrible ...
Orlando Shooting: The Cold, Cold Monster Strikes Again

I could write a book about the Orlando shooting, its antecedents and its exploitation by the Progressive State of America. Alas, that won’t be necessary. If you understand two key concepts, you can unravel the whole puzzle very quickly. If you don’t understand them, you will be quickly swept out to sea by a progressive rip tide, not ever knowing what hit you. First, the government creates its own demand. Second, once you understand what progressivism is, you then immediately understand how progs robotically react to each new crisis. The government is perhaps the least understood institution because so far as we are led to believe, it always existed, must always exist and no ...

Democrats’ War on Due Process and Terrorist Fearmongering Long Predate Orlando

Before the bodies were removed from the Pulse nightclub in Orlando last week, Democrats began eagerly exploiting that atrocity to demand a new, secret “terrorist watchlist”: something that was once the domestic centerpiece of the Bush/Cheney war-on-terror mentality. Led by their propaganda outlet, Center for American Progress (CAP), Democrats now want to empower the Justice Department — without any judicial adjudication — to unilaterally bar citizens who have not been charged with (let alone convicted of) any crime from purchasing guns. Worse than the measure itself is the rancid rhetoric they are using. To justify this new list, Democrats, in unison, are actually ...
Israel's Military Intelligence Chief Prefers ISIS to Assad

Israel’s Military Intelligence Chief Prefers ISIS to Assad in Syria by Stephen Lendman Israel actively supports ISIS and other terrorist groups in Syria, supplying them with weapons, munitions, foodstuffs and medical treatment for their wounded fighters - along with bombing Syrian targets at its discretion. It’s allied with Washington, NATO and other regional rogue states to topple Assad, eliminate a key rival and isolate Iran, its main Middle East target. In an address delivered days earlier, Israel’s military intelligence chief General Herzi Halevy discussed war in Syria, Iran’s nuclear program, Hezbollah, Hamas, terrorism, and what he called the growing disparity ...

Michele Flournoy: A Clinton Administration’s Likely Secretary of War by Stephen Lendman America’s Defense Department is misnamed. Its designation sanitizes its warmaking mission - endless aggression against nonbelligerent states. The endgame is clear - unchallenged US global dominance, planet earth colonized, its resources looted, billions consigned to neoserfdom. Flournoy is scary, cut out of the same ruthlessly dangerous cloth as Clinton, reportedly her choice to head her administration’s killing machine if elected president in November. She’s a former third-ranking Department of War official, its highest-ranking woman, co-founder of the neocon Center for a New ...

June 22: Operation Barbarossa’s 75th Anniversary by Stephen Lendman On June 22, 1941, Hitler launched perhaps the largest ever invasion by one country against another. Operation Barbarossa involved up to four million combat and support troops - Hitler’s fatal error, miscalculating, overreaching, hubris and arrogance defeating him. Heroic Red Army efforts smashed the vaunted Wehrmacht, Soviet Russia, not America, most responsible for freeing Europe from the scourge of Nazism. Addressing Russia’s lower house State Duma, Putin paid tribute to extraordinary Red Army heroism above and beyond the call of duty by any standard, saying: “This day in 1941, Nazi Germany ...

Kerry Meets with State Department Hawks on Syria by Stephen Lendman A previous article discussed dozens of unnamed State Department staffers urging stepped up US military action to oust Assad, greater naked aggression than already - wanting pro-Western puppet governance replacing sovereign Syrian independence. John Kerry expressed sympathy with their position without publicly endorsing it. On Tuesday, he met with “eight midlevel Foreign Service officers,” according to The New York Times - hawkish neocons among dozens publicly opposing Obama’s Syria policy. According to State Department spokesman admiral John Kirby, Kerry “was largely in a listening mode.” The ...

A Clinton Presidency: Humanity’s Worst Nightmare by Stephen Lendman Since Soviet Russia’s 1991 dissolution, successive US administrations governed increasingly lawlessly and recklessly - Bill Clinton worse than his predecessors, Bush worse than him, Obama worst of all, at war with multiple invented enemies throughout his tenure - from inaugural day to the present. A neocon Hillary Clinton presidency succeeding him risks the unthinkable - possible WW III. America’s rage for dominance, its wanting planet earth colonized, and increasing belligerence toward Russia and China virtually assures eventual confrontation. Unknown is to what extent, but when conflicts begin, they ...
