  Trump, "we're really winning," Rest of the World, Really! posted by Akela Lacy via jess, 2017-11-24 05:01:37
As the United States unravels before the eyes of the international community, buffoon president Trump sends a Thanksgiving message from his cozy Florida residence, Mar-a-Lago, to the troops, "we're really winning," notwithstanding the longest failed war in American history, Afghanistan, and the numerous failed States as a direct result of ill-considered, badly planned, US criminal military interventions -- 'winning,' sure you are, demented Donald!
Clearly America is losing on many fronts, especially at home, socially, as clearly indicated by the fact that a psychologically flawed moron and coward is president of the nation, enough said. Wake up America! You are obviously losing EVERYTHING you have built over the past two centuries. The state of the nation speaks for itself. (full story)

Reality Beckons posted by Jon Rappoport via shirl, 2017-11-22 17:11:18
What we call Reality is a hall of mirrors. It reflects itself back and forth and builds up a consensus.
People do the same thing. They confirm with one another that the reality they believe is real is, in fact, real.
And having established that, they live out their lives and make the best of it. (full story)

America’s Renegade Warfare posted by Nicolas J S Davies via jess, 2017-11-22 01:18:53
Seventy-seven million people in North and South Korea find themselves directly in the line of fire from the threat of a Second Korean War. The rest of the world is recoiling in horror from the scale of civilian casualties such a war would cause and the unthinkable prospect that either side might actually use nuclear weapons.

Fake News and NATO’s Plans for “Persuasion and Impacting the Media.” posted by Felicity Arbuthnot via stacey, 2017-11-21 20:37:51
“Having survived Afghanistan, NATO continued to play a significant role in the destruction of Gaddafi’s Libya, and in the destruction of parts of Syria through covertly organising, financing, and arming ISIS forces for the purpose of overthrowing the Assad government. And it continues to serve as a cover for the war making elements in Britain and France. America’s coup in the Ukraine in 2014, which resulted in a crisis in relations with Russia, gave NATO a new lease on life as it helped create entirely uncalled for hysterical fear of Russia in Poland and the Baltic states.” -- Karel van Wolferen, “NATO, a Monstrous Institution” (full story)

URGENT: Free Speech and a Free Internet are Under Attack posted by Jake Johnson via darcy, 2017-11-21 19:46:46
"The FCC under Pai is handing over the internet to a few humongous gatekeepers who see the rest of us as products to be delivered to advertisers, not as citizens needing communications that serve democracy's needs." (full story)

 BREAKING: Vladimir Putin Rumoured to Quit posted by jaxie, 2017-11-19 22:40:29
Well, as sure as shit floats so the truth is exposed. According to the UK Independent and Mirror, Putin is 'considering' quitting as Russian leader in order to spend his ill-gotten, graft and corruption money which amounts to hundreds of $billions, which amount would make Putin one of the richest men on the planet -- an impossible outcome for an honest politician in any country let alone impoverished Russia.

 US Military Presence in Syria Has No Legal Grounds Whatsoever posted by Peter Korzun via cyd, 2017-11-19 10:14:05
America, the worlds leading civilian killing and law flouting nation (FACT) is in trouble, as the usual excuses and pretexts it uses for its many illegal military interventions are today as transparent as wet toilet paper. The Syrian government has made it clear that America's presence and its proxy fighters, including ISIL and Al-Qaeda, are invasive, aggressive forces and would be treated as belligerent enemy forces as outlined by the UN and international law. This puts corrupt Putin on the spot as he could have at any time demanded that the US withdraw from Syria immediately, yet he has chosen to play footsie with the USA. (full story)

 No One Man Should Be Able to Trigger Nuclear War posted by Eric Margolis via jan, 2017-11-19 03:17:16
Nuclear war is absolutely unthinkable. Totally crazy. Yet serious discussion is underway in military and neocon war circles about a nuclear war against North Korea and, even crazier, against Iran and Russia. Welcome home, Dr Strangelove. [And we all should be aware how that movie ended.] (full story)

US Military and CIA Leaders May Be Investigated for War Crimes posted by Marjorie Cohn via james, 2017-11-17 01:50:12
Fat chance Ms Cohn, as it is established that the ICC only convicts those that are considered enemies of the USA; you would note that trials involving the KLA, a notorious Muslim criminal organisation, found none guilty of any crimes and that notwithstanding a published account by former chief prosecutor Carla Del Ponte, that the KLA were harvesting organs from captured Serbian civilians. It should also be noted that Croatian and Bosnian extremists were also found not guilty, give me a break! Do you find it odd that only Serbs were convicted and jailed after that American instigated conflict and that former Yugoslav president Milosevic was exonerated quietly after his death in jail?

 Saudi Purge Signals War And New World Order Reset posted by Brandon Smith via jess, 2017-11-16 21:09:05
For years now, I have been warning about the relationship of interdependency between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia and how this relationship, if ended, would mean disaster for the petrodollar system and by extension the dollar's world reserve status. (full story)

UPDATE on Syrian Crisis and America's grossly Illegal Interference posted by MOA via cyd, 2017-11-16 20:24:46
There have been few significant movements during the last weeks. The war on Syria slowly grinds towards its end. The political tussle continues as ever. U.S. Secretary of Defense Mattis made a curious announcement of plans he can not fulfill. (full story)
