Putin's Russia China and Russia Warn the U.S. posted by Ting Shi and David Tweed via cyd, 2017-09-13 21:01:28
As has been stated many times by many contributors to this site, an American attack on NK would involve China and Russia militarily, which nations share land borders with NK. Any attack on NK would be disastrous for China in particular, NK refugees would pour over the border and destabilise the region, notwithstanding the fact that the USA would use the attack to ALSO install offensive nuclear capable missiles on both Russia's and China's land borders tightening the existing nuclear noose on both nations -- but perhaps this is the plan by Washington crazies, notwithstanding it may trigger WWIII, though as is proven, never underestimate the stupidity of crazed human beings, especially neocons in Washington and their unstable, pathological puppet president, Trump.

Behold a Pale Horse, and its Rider is Death posted by Paul Craig Roberts via jane, 2017-09-12 23:01:39
Two of America’s most populous states, Texas and Florida, are in hurricane ruins, and Washington is fomenting more wars. The US national debt is now over $20 trillion, and Washington is fomenting more wars. The entire world is helping Washington foment wars—including two targeted countries themselves—Russia and China—both of which are helping Washington foment more wars. Believe it or not, both Russia and China voted with Washington on the UN Security Council to impose more and harsher sanctions on North Korea, a country guilty of nothing but a desire to have the means to protect itself from the US and not become yet another Washington victim like Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, Syria, Serbia, and Ukraine overthrown in a US coup and now poverty-stricken.

End Warrantless Deep State Spying posted by claire, 2017-09-12 22:36:41
There are no two ways about it, WE the globally surveilled, media-captured, constantly deceived, nose-ringed masses ALLOW warrantless pan-surveillance and spying on almost all aspects of our open and PRIVATE lives; yes, big brother’s techno-tentacles are entwined around everyone that lives in any society where digital communications, financial transactions and other digital technologies dominate, which is most of the known world. Furthermore, the controllers -- banks and corporations, utilising puppet leaders/governments -- are now implementing their plan for a cashless society, the application of which would clearly enslave everyone, as the threat of clicking a key and blocking digital currency transactions required for the basic necessities of life would of course enable big brother to destroy anyone they choose to destroy, how very convenient and horrid -- no-one could ever be trusted with that power.

America's Willful Negligence Concerning the 9/11 Attacks posted by Joe Giambrone via sal, 2017-09-11 20:30:21
Since December 2002, at the latest, it became glaringly obvious that certain individuals in the US government had lied about how the 9/11 attacks had come to be. When the Bush administration censored the official congressional investigation, the "Joint Inquiry" into the attacks, notably the 28-page section on foreign state funding to the named hijackers, its legitimacy crumbled.

It’s September 11 and the Mass Media Doesn’t Want to Go There posted by trudy, 2017-09-11 00:44:43
Surely you would think that date, now etched in world memory, would evoke a story of 9/11 from at least one major mass media organisation. However, as the government story has been ridiculed by specialists, including demolition experts, physicists, architects, engineers, metallurgists, NYC firemen and police first on the scene, it would seem that coverage may be dangerous and elicit a flood of responses exposing AGAIN the obvious LIES of government.

Flagrant Disregard of International LAW -- America's Transparent Attempt to Frame Russia posted by Christopher Black via jess, 2017-09-08 21:28:25
'Russiagate' is floundering, as a result the U.S. deep state is desperate to 'obtain' real EVIDENCE of Russia's involvement in the fabricated story of intervention in the U.S. presidential election. I refer to the FBI raids on Russian diplomats and the search of their premises, which includes the grossly ILLEGAL attempt to conduct searches of Russia's Consular properties -- but as we know from the grossly illegal military intervention and occupation by U.S. forces in Syria, America doesn't give a damn about international laws and conventions -- clearly the USA is a BRAZEN rogue, criminal state and should be treated as such by the international community, which nation is next?

Lunacy Out Loud posted by Robert C. Koehler via sal, 2017-09-07 23:04:52
“There are no good options,” a LIE Brian Williams attempted to sell to the American public and WORLD recently on MSNBC, which untrue statement was designed to launch an orchestrated and directed discussion about the CREATED North Korean 'crisis.' The obvious sell was that WAR is the only solution -- nothing could be further from the TRUTH. The entire scenario has been well planned and staged by the shadow government in order to install nuclear capable missiles directly on China's land borders -- the shadow [real] government views independent China and Russia as enemies. The US has succeeded to date with its nuclear creep strategy, which gives it a huge advantage in a pre-emptive nuclear strike against China and Russia. (full story)

Haley at the CFR, naturally! Nikki Haley: Neocon Heartthrob posted by Jim Lobe via jake, 2017-09-06 20:57:05
With the eviction of Steve Bannon and Sebastian Gorka from the inner precincts of the White House and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson besieged and taking fire from virtually all sides, neoconservatives – even the NeverTrumpers among them – must be quietly harboring renewed hopes that their restoration may soon be within reach.

America is Overtly Pushing for WWIII by REFUSING to Engage in Talks with NK posted by stacy, 2017-09-05 22:43:59
The refusal by Washington to engage in dialogue/negotiations with North Korea has already pushed the situation to the brink of nuclear war, a completely avoidable outcome. U.S. Ambassador to the UN, (neocon lunatic) Nikki Haley, openly stated that North Korea is “begging for war,” really! How would she know if she refuses talks? It is obvious to all political analysts that NK feels threatened and is desperately attempting to push America to the negotiating table for talks regarding unnecessary and provocative war rehearsals with allies South Korea and Japan, the advice of which allied nations, America now ignores -- no nation should tolerate an unacceptable, one-sided relationship in OUR world today, or for that matter ANY outrageous behaviour from the lunatic, belligerent, USA.

'All You Need Is Nukes ...' posted by juggler, 2017-09-04 21:43:13
Indeed, nukes are all you need to maintain sovereignty and FREEDOM from interfering enslaving nuclear powers, particularly America. Kim Jong-Un, has proven it without blinking an eye, even the demented US population understands. Kim has called every bluff the thieving, culture/nation-destroying enslaving yanks have attempted to throw at him. Consider for a moment, how Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yugoslavia etc would have fared had they been nuclear armed. A cogent LESSON for ALL nations. (full story)
