RSSThe German defense minister is a Hillary wannabe: http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/731939/Vladimir-Putin-Donald-Trump-Germany-Russia-US-Crimea-Syria-von-der-Leyen
Right after Trump won the election there were cries about Russia from European allies all over the news media just like the one above.
They need Russia to be an enemy to justify their actions and the Europeans want to use the US to threaten Russia. Its a shame this can’t be generalized against all foreign agents of influence. The US Mainstream Media is basically an arm of the Hasbara. Their guest from think tanks are foreign agents of influence. Its not fun watching a bunch of foreigners and their domestic owned Americans run the US Empire into the ground.
I don't get this. I never see a Democrat denouncing Black Lives Matter/Al Sharpton types for their "black identity politics" even if it's not their thing because they realize (1) 90% of blacks vote for Democrats, and (2) publicly criticizing people who enable their political agenda is counterproductive. White "conservatives" denouncing "white identity politics" is just blatant virtue signaling. Please keep it to yourself.Replies: @Anon-og, @Johnny F. Ive
I also don’t care about the AltRight which is a bunch of whites like Richard Spencer who want a white Israel and join the stupid identity politics of Al Sharpton even though they have ever right to do so. When people reduce themselves to colors its a sign they have no true heritage. Catalans are a people with a heritage. White is a color.
This is off topic but I’ll bite. I’m an Independent and I have never been anything else. All identity politics is a scam which to divide the herd and keep them from the levers of power. Blacks are rootless former slaves. Al Sharpton is just a scam artist and all lives matter except for Al Qaeda’s. Blacks have lost their culture and their native languages just like most whites in America. Blacks don’t know their ancestral religions. Whites aren’t conserving anything. They are leaving Christianity and let their countries be destroyed. Its ridiculous too considering whites killed their own in their own homeland for centuries. They’ve lost their appetite for it after World War II. They then decided to import Wahhabi of all things into Europe. Blacks are still killing each other in Africa to this day. Hopefully someday soon we will learn who we really are with accurate DNA ethnicity testing. I bet many whites have some African DNA. Then people can pretend to get their heritage back and crack a book on their ancestral native tongue. I know many of my ancestors came from the British Isles in the 17th and 18th century. Every male ancestor I come across fought the British. I’m using the same language my ancestors did hundreds of years ago in Virginia and Britain. I have roots. I have a history that goes back but I have no tribal affection to Britain. Other Whites and blacks adopted my language and culture. We read American & British literature not German or French. Our music and entertainment is mostly from the English speaking world. The only issue I have is lack of assimilation of Hispanics and groups like the Jews and Cubans not letting go of their foreign attachments. Everyone needs to assimilate, learn English, drop their foreign attachments, and get along. People who are race obsessed tend to be crazy from my personal experience just look at the Neocons. They are called crazy for a reason. The more pro-Israel someone is the more insane they are. I have no use for these people. The more Zionist Jews become the more stupid they are and more hateful they become.
American whites may have abandoned their native culture but one thing all Whites have in common is abandoning their heritage for a new cult like Christianity and then abandoning it for something else. Rod Dreher laments about this. It was just a passing fad. Celtic civilization disappeared. Western people lost their indigenous culture which I think is a shame. We still have some old Norse though. I think what comes next will be a reaction to the Wahhabi they let into their countries. Whites were ignorant of their own western heritage but were allowed to reclaim it thanks to Islamic scholars who preserved it for them. Where would we be without ancient Greek and Roman text? We would be a bunch of Rod Drehers. I doubt we would be a first world country without that ancient knowledge which whites had ditched for an oriental fairy tale of all things. Our civilization flourished after that ancient knowledge was reacquired. Our government is not based on Christianity but Rome and Athens. Seriously who would pick a Catholic puppet government over the United States?
LMAO! Good one!

I agree with Fran that the article could be taken the wrong way. It could have used a qualifier “few American Jews” throughout it. The crazy Christian Zionist doomsday cult should have been brought up with its numerous aging adherents. There are a lot of people that get on TV that should have a warning label due to their disloyalty and affections for at least foreign money like the experts from think tanks. Anyone taken foreign money or have close relations with foreign governments should not be working for them in the government. It wasn’t broad enough so it looked like American Jews are being targeted specifically. They are clearly the most powerful group but they aren’t the only ones. It gives American Jews encouragement to keep their silly beliefs instead of assimilate if they feel threatened as a whole which we don’t want. We want ethnicity to be interesting heritage that someone has and not something important. People are marrying out of the tribe. We are becoming more secular so the fairy tales are losing their grip on new generations of Americans. Its just not happening fast enough.
Then again Philip Giraldi wouldn’t be Philip Giraldi if he didn’t express his feelings and thoughts exactly as he has them. What he said was accurate and true. Can you imagine Michael Scheuer not writing passionately about armed insurrection and watering the tree of liberty with the blood of tyrants? A careful dry academic style like Paul Pillar would get the job done but it wouldn’t be as provocative but it would have a better chance of slipping through the censors.
These are the facts. There is no Jew opposition to bad Jews. Jews are most threatened by other Jews. Little Jews fear Big Jews.Clearly - Big Jews are coercing our government and our culture - if a large segment of American Jews do not publicly speak out in opposition - then they will be lumped in with the bad ones.That is life! (See WWII)Think Peace --- Art

I never said anything about Trump and his relation to Israel. I would be shocked if Trump was not pro-Israel since he vocally supported Netanyahu for prime minister. You can get down on your knees and serve Israel but still hate Trump like Bill Kristol. I also don’t care about the AltRight which is a bunch of whites like Richard Spencer who want a white Israel and join the stupid identity politics of Al Sharpton even though they have ever right to do so. When people reduce themselves to colors its a sign they have no true heritage. Catalans are a people with a heritage. White is a color.
The American Conservative hates Trump because he upsets the foreign interest that control the American Empire. American Conservative cries “but but Qatar was arming terrorist for America but mean O’ Trump he threw them to the wolves.” “Oh American power how can we survive without paying for European security and help them harass Russia? Trump is destroying the alliances with shitty countries all over the world oh noooooooooooooo!” He talks about grabbing women between the legs with his locker room talk ooh noooo!!!” They do get things right like Yemen and the Iran Deal so they haven’t completely sold their souls to the rulers of the American Empire. However its noticeable they are moving in a Weekly Standard direction.
Trump did end Obama administrations policy of supporting Al Qaeda in Syria. I consider that progress.

@Philip Giraldi Instead of a recantation explain why you are so damn mad. Its about how these Israel-firsters are seriously damaging the US isn’t it? The behavior of this Jewish minority has consequences so maybe explain the end result which is the destruction of American life, American way of life, and American power.
Why should Americans care that their country is being annihilated by foreign interest groups? How does it affect them? What is the prognosis? Why should Americans care about a war with Iran? Iran can’t hit the US. We are safe unless Michael Scheuer was right in an interview with RT several years ago and that there are Iranian sleeper cells in the US ready to retaliate thanks to our lax border security. Why should self-absorbed Americans care about how Israel affects America’s relations with the rest of the Middle East which makes Israel look good? Why should Americans care about what happens to American soldiers or the people they fight on behalf of Israel? The US has very few terrorist attacks. Many of these things do not have any direct connection with the quality of life of each and every American except for the Iranian sleeper cell argument. Americans will go shop and Disney World after the war with Iran is started on behalf of Israel and Saudi interest. Nothing will change for the majority of them. Why should an American care since there are no visible consequences for themselves with the wars in the Middle East? The US is 20 trillion in debt and rising. Its still the world’s hegemon. Life in American was the same before and after the US reached that milestone. It was the same after Trump’s surge in Afghanistan. It is the same with the war in Yemen. 9/11 changed the American way of life but Americans accepted it.
What do self-absorbed Americans get if they turn on this minority of Jews? Whats in it for them personally?
Good article. American Conservative is Israel occupied territory and is anti-Trump near the level of Russia-gate fanatics.
The bloodthirsty and powerful Jewish minority has two problems though:
1. China doesn’t care about its stupid narcissistic fairy tales and it very well maybe the next global power because this Jewish minority is killing its host.
2. I think enough Americans have figured it out that they should be concerned. You can go to comments sections all over the internet and people are talking about this issue. It is a remarkable sight to behold and yet they calmly continue to push the US into war. All this Jewish minority has is craven Christians who want the world to end which ends badly for the Jews and be blessed by God for supporting Israel, bought and paid for politicians, and people scared of their power. They really must miss being persecuted like in the Middle Ages. People are getting turned off by this increasingly unpleasant Ethnic Democracy & Apartheid State based on poll data.
Russia-gate is a gift in a way. It is about a foreign government that is interfering in American politics. The problem is how to generate enough hate for all foreign government interference in American politics. They are America’s biggest existential threat. They create the policy along with corporations. Then Israel will be one of many evil regimes that are sucking the life out of America, stealing from us, and trying to get us to fight its enemies for them. Lets hate them all and call them all out for screwing us over like Trump does. The Saudis have bought off Americans in an attempt to get out of being sued for 9/11. Trump doesn’t ban countries where actual terrorist who have attacked the US have come from. At least he supported putting Qatar in its place despite its cheerleaders at the American Conservative. The American Conservative bragged about Qatar helping in Libya. What are they on over there? They are probably a bunch of closet Al Qaeda sympathizers.
I’ve never been to a synagogue so I wouldn’t know. I’ve heard that stuff in Christian churches and by televangelist though. A person being exposed to peer pressure in a synagogue and cultural events doesn’t mean that they are so weak as to conform to that pressure. I like statistical proof on such topics as who supports what. Abrahamic religions are an American security concern. No doubt about that. The world would be better without the three worst faiths in human history.
If a majority of American Jews support such policies then that data should be clearly cited so they can’t weasel their way out of it. What percentage of American Jews? 30%, 50%, 99%, 100%, including the research data to back it up? Here is an article saying about 30% of American Jews have evil intentions on Iran: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2015/07/27/jewish-americans-support-the-iran-nuclear-deal/?utm_term=.abccbc27aacf
The article is also evidence that a majority of American Jews have an unhealthy attachment to West Asia while most Americans don’t care. The 30% of American Jews that want conflict would find a better home in Israel and do not belong in the US.
American Conservative had a lot of Qatar propaganda. Do they get funding from Qatar? They had articles defending Qatar for aiding American imperialism (ex. Libya) like that is some noble good that trumps Qatar’s support for Salafi Jihadist that threaten the US. They were fighting to uphold the liberal international order that they thought Trump threatened.
I think this article is right but I think you should have made more clear early on that you were only discussing a small but powerful minority of Jewish Americans. Valerie Plame became Israel occupied. Shame.
I agree with most of this article. Al Qaeda had help inside the US for sure and there was a cover up at the highest levels, but the debris that could be used to test the demolition theory was removed quickly without analysis to China.
The lowest order of social organization is the band society. Historically they would war against each other. Chimpanzees war against each other. This a hominidae problem at least. Also human society favors narcissist and psychopaths for leaders. The psychopaths lie the US into war for their objective. Narcissist do it because they want to feel good about murdering people so they lie to themselves. This won’t stop unless these groups of people are screened and prevented from reaching positions of power.
Afghanistan is a disgusting society run by pedophiles. I’m not sympathetic to their way of life. The Taliban at least tried to stop the practice. I would be disappointed if the Iraqis didn’t miss secularism. The Syrians are fighting for their very lives to live in a secular society.
Modern US is an Empire that is ruled by finance, corporations, and foreign governments such as Israel. The description of the whore of Babylon in the book of Revelations fits Washington D.C. to a T. The internet has documented its crimes and corruption for all to see. The US Empire is not completely incoherent because there are servants in it that are rational and pushing back. It is why the war with Iran has been delayed. The US under Obama sought to use Al Qaeda in Libya and Syria. President Trump stopped the support of Al Qaeda in Syria, and challenged the Muslim world to stop using terrorism to solve its problems. Afghanistan war is prolonged but negotiating with the Taliban is an option which is something George W. Bush rejected.
The American Empire is a hit-man for the well connected, including governments. President Trump has shown interest in having them fund the American Empire since its broke, they do receive some protection from it, but they themselves do not seem to want to fund it. Europe cries about Russia, Gulf States cry about Iran, and Asia cries about China. They are militarily occupied but the American people suffer the expense.
American Imperium has and does great evil but its a pagan society which is pretty tolerant if you are within its domain with a favorable status. I think those that adopted a pagan capitalist society are at least living comfortably for the most part. I do think a free pagan society is the highest form of human civilization. It is true the US has allied with some nasty belief systems like Nazis, Wahhabist, etc. It will be interesting to see how things pan out once China takes America’s place since it is hostile to religion. Americans have been brainwashed into thinking that the US must be a global policeman and that its poop doesn’t stink. There are those that think other nations poop doesn’t stink. All of the poop stinks.
The US will decline and will have to give up the Empire unless it figures out a sustainable course, rejects perpetual war in favor of being a counterbalance just from its presence. It also would have to reorient the military industrial complex towards something profitable outside of war profiteering. The US Empire may be replaced with the Chinese one road, one belt project. The US is at a crossroads. We got an Iran deal which is in jeopardy but its amazing that it was made in the first place. In Syria the US hasn’t started World War 3 on behalf of Al Qaeda. The internet is clearly having an affect on the American Empire. It is why there is a rush to censor it. No longer can evil human beings misuse power without everyone else finding out about it. They can’t control the information from reaching the rest of the world now. They will try and people will get around it. The American Empire has a huge bureaucracy and there are a lot of moral human beings in it. The US political class has other problems: it hasn’t won a war since World War II, and economic inequality is having its negative effect on the American people. We got Trump instead of Hillary because half the nation realized the US is in bad shape.
The real enemy is the shadow government, followed by Salafi Jihadist/Wahhabism, and other nuclear powers which are not part of the shadow government.
Trump can’t cut a deal because the shadow government will do everything in its power to sabotage it. He also inherited a mess. We can guess at what he is going to do but we don’t really know for sure what the policy will turn out to be. He said early on he isn’t going to tell us what it is. He gets a lot of his information from the shadow government so obviously they will guide some of his thinking. The shadow government also is applying operant conditioning on Trump with praise (when he attacks someone) and abuse when he wants to engage in diplomacy. Twitter allows us to try and politely share our point of view with him which can contradict the propaganda that he sees on TV and reads in the newspapers so we the people have a direct line to the President and he has one to us. He knows the news media is bad mouthing him for no reason but they command a lot of power. I have no idea what is in Trump’s heart but before these 4 years are out we will know what is in it.
Trump really hasn’t given us the full Hillary Clinton on Syria yet. I believe he is aware of what is going on and we will see what his policy is as his administration continues. If people don’t think so we have a great opportunity to share our point of view politely with him on twitter by sending him reputable articles or videos. Maybe he wouldn’t look at it but what if he ever did and it opened some questions for him? The people who tweet to him tend to be obnoxious and insane from the fake news they’ve ingested. If your only source of information is fake news then you aren’t going to make good decisions. He inherited a mess and there are powerful forces outside of his control that control the narrative and want to control him through the narrative. The White Helmets are apart of that narrative. If we give Trump good ideas for options to move forward and he has a support base maybe he will listen to us. What do we have to lose?
Israel wants a perpetual bloodbath in Syria but if one must prevail they want the Sunni evil to prevail.
Hollywood has turned into a de-Americanized, anti-American global enterprise where most of their earnings occur overseas. Their movies are turning into two toned (amber & teal) incoherent messes for a global audience they assume are stupid. I expect before long they will make movies praising the great firewall of China and one party rule.
I think Turkey changed its tune because the US is allied with the Kurds. Russia has been fighting in Syria for a couple years now. Is the end in sight yet?
Qatar is a supporter of Al Qaeda (Al Nusra). This is the first time since probably the war in Afghanistan that somebody is taking on a state supporter of Al Qaeda. Qatar has been playing games in the Middle East, contributing to the fanaticism for a long time. This is blow back for all the evil Qatar has engaged in.
The UK will never change its foreign policy and immigration policy. They’ll probably use it to push even more intrusive laws on their citizenry which won’t solve the problem. We know through Patrick Cockburn that the UK has aided Libyan terrorist living inside the UK and was well aware of the concept of blowback. If people want change then they need to demand the heads of the people who have aided these people inside the UK government.
I didn’t know about the phone apps. They look nice. Does anyone trust Android phones? I was sad that the Ubuntu phone failed. I’d like smart phones to be more like PCs where new operating systems can be installed on them. Is “SEL-Debian,” Security Enhanced Linux? The NSA developed that. OpenBSD supposed to be real nice and encrypted. How about systemd? The good thing about open source is that the code is open but does anyone read it?
Also how can the CPU itself be used to spy on you?
The Catholic Church is like the Church of Scientology. It runs a money making scam and calls it religion.
The Renaissance was a result of Europe being reacquainted with classical knowledge on the dime of the Medici. Before that time there was a period called the Dark Age that was ruled by Christianity. The Christian Church was against knowledge at the time of the Renaissance. They went full ISIS with something called an inquisition. The Renaissance gave way to the Enlightenment and the present West. Also Protestantism is a result of the Medici. The Medici pope and the indulgence scam ticked off Martin Luther and started a religious schism.
There are Christians who contributed many great things to the world but much of it was a result of earlier European knowledge and thought which they had access to. Christianity would be a positive in the West if it could be detached from its crazed land hungry father and violently insane brother.
The time is quickly approaching where a military coup is a necessity. If not the Russians and Chinese need to arm the Shia Crescent to the teeth for a long (hopefully Empire ending) quagmire. Also they need to give nukes to Iran or use them themselves. Its an affront to humanity if Israel survives this coming needless war. The nukes used on Israel need to be salted bombs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salted_bomb
The world needs to get rid of Israel permanently.
What if the US Empire was financially bankrupted? How would it behave afterwards? I think it will end with military overstretch and bankruptcy or nuclear war. One or the other. Its sad that all this suffering is a tribal war. On man’s way to civilization he forgot to leave that behind. Would the US behave after bankruptcy like the Soviets did after losing in Afghanistan or is the US going to be even more like a huge North Korea? Besides Israel there is the manipulations of other countries like the Europeans.
I agree Trump is very concerned about appearance and that makes him weak. He like the rest of the American Establishment is like Narcissus and in their pond the Empire is reflected back at them. They won’t let go of it.
I disagree that the American people vote against war. The American people have had plenty of chances. They’ve had chances to turn the world’s fortunes around plenty of times with Pat Buchanan, Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich, and Ralph Nader. That pretty much covers the whole ideological spectrum except the neocons. The American people have consistently voted for war at least since 1992. They had these men who ran for president in order to save us all and the were consistently rejected by the electorate. Its not just the government. Its the 4th estate. The corporations. I’m now a pessimist. War will come and it will fail. The question is who will the Empire wage war against and who will survive the war?
Is Pauline Christianity legitimate? The problem with it has always been that it was built on a tribal story. A lot of good came from it. It was used to justify some bad things too. Its origins are not the classical world. That is probably why the alt-right has a fascination with modern pseudo-pagan religions. I think the real story is that the Ancient Greeks particularly the Epicureans have won the argument:
https://www.csun.edu/~hcfll004/Stoic-Epic-comp.html – these ideas are older than Christianity.
The AngloZionist tribe is now considered what the Catholics considered the pagans were. The word paganus means hick. Pagan now means new age and Christian in the West means hick. The AngloZionist don’t even like them but require their obedience and support. Perhaps its only a matter of time before the Judeo-Christian fairy tail loses its political power and just becomes good literature. It has no hope especially with the transhumanist wonders about to bequeathed to the world. It can’t compete. They avoided the truth for about 2000 years and couldn’t develop a convincing response against Epicureanism. Genesis is the best they could muster against natural selection after thousands of years of knowing about it? Epikoros (Hebrew for heretic) in the end won! But the US Empire has an unhealthy appetite of playing chicken with nuclear powers and western Judeo-Christianity will not go peacefully into the night.
A little more background info on the origins of the term Epikoros:
Epikoros (Hebrew for heretic)
The Rabbinic literature uses merely the term Epikoros, without a specific reference to the Greek philosopher Epicurus, yet it is apparent that the term is derived from the Greek philosopher's name, a philosopher whose views contradicted Jewish scripture, the strictly monotheistic conception of God in Judaism and the Jewish belief in the world to come.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epikoros
Epicurus (/ˌɛpɪˈkjʊərəs/ or /ˌɛpɪˈkjɔːrəs/; Greek: Ἐπίκουρος, Epíkouros, "ally, comrade"https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicurus
, I agree! Its all on purpose. ISIS is the perfect enemy. Its weak and it replenishes itself. There are those like Petraeus and Daniel Pipes who want to strengthen the Salafi Jihadist. They find them useful.
The Shia and Sunnis have found something they hated more than Israel, autocrats, Russians, and Americans. Each other.
The US media should have learned something about the Iraq war, but it still hasn’t. It blindly supports every stupid foreign policy decision wrapped in humanitarian clothes while being unwilling to honestly tell the American people that its a proxy war where all the actors in it are evil. That no one knows for sure what happened because it wasn’t investigated. The media in Russia may be a tool of the Kremlin but the US media is the tool of the war profiteers. There is no way to get around that no matter how Rutenberg tries to frame it around what he thinks is the correct opinion.
Also VIPS had American intelligence contacts in the Middle East who said the Syrians hit something that had chemicals in it. Everyone has their anonymous intelligence sources. Assad isn’t going anywhere there could have been a proper investigation. The US media salivated at the bombing of Syria. The US media is the American Empire’s id. It tells it to do stupid stuff that is going to get it killed. The US media loves to play nuclear chicken with Russia. I suppose psychopaths need a lot of stimulation and what could be more stimulating than a risk of nuclear war.
If the US media was doing its job it would not just be after Trump’s relationship with Russia. It would be after the whole American establishments cozy relationship with Israel and Saudi Arabia. They’ve turned the US into a banana empire. Of course the US media is tied to weapons producers and Israel gets a welfare check to buy American arms and Saudi Arabia buys American arms. Also Israel no matter what it does is protected because of guilt (which will be its undoing because its bad behavior is not being checked). If Russia bought American arms I bet the US media would love Putin. The US media then would take it upon themselves to support Putin against his enemies.
Israel wants the Syrian war to go on forever. The Saudi and Iranian proxies aren’t saints. There are no good guys yet removing Assad is the preferred outcome for the US media. Its irrational unless you realize who its working for. Its not the American people. Its not even working to keep the US Empire in a position of strength. It demands obedience to the whims of the Empire’s global subjects and its domestic war industry. That is what this Russian crap was about Trump. Maybe they tried to interfere. People were going to vote the way they voted anyway because Trump struck an emotional cord with his larger than life personality and the Democrats conspired against the candidate that could have beaten him (Bernie) while making sure no one that could win would run for the Democrat nomination. Also the Israelis are right wing and they get away with stuff the Alt-right could never get away with in the US (and I hope wouldn’t want to engage in). What they do to the Palestinians is straight out of Nazi Germany before the holocaust (which is coming for the Palestinians). They loved Trump and voted for him. US media doesn’t make a big deal about this. Any reporter who did would risk losing their job.
The good thing about the US corporate media is that it is being put behind paywalls. I just use software to block these sites so I don’t even bother wasting my time by clicking and then having to click back. I get “the line” from sources not behind a paywall. Only an idiot would pay to be lied to on behalf of groups that do not have the US interest at heart. By being whores for war profiteers and their global allies the US media makes Russian government controlled media seem great in comparison. There is no reason why the US should be a whore for unsavory governments and organizations across the world. Its 20 trillion in debt and the US media uses verbal abuse and praise to manipulate the President into making war, while framing the war into simplistic and cartoonish terms. There are some that are extremely wealthy. The Europeans could handle their own security but manipulating the US to do it is easy because of the US media and easily malleable politicians.
How about the US media find some poor defenseless country and harp up a war and bleed the US Empire dry of its wealth in a fruitless quagmire and call it a day? Some of us do have a self preservation instinct and fighting Russia for the mess in Syria is stupid. If it was me I’d try to get the defense companies to focus on space and space mining. Whoever controls outer space will control humanity’s destiny. But go ahead bleed the US dry on these short sided money grabbing crusades so other countries can take over outer space instead.
My apologies to the moderator! This is my last post on this I promise!
anonymous, go to the White House, ring the door bell, tell them what you told me and see how your alternative works out for you! Maybe you will wow them with your rhetorical skills and they all will say, “you know what this guy has a point!” Godspeed!
Trump understands the concept of a “nuclear holocaust” and the rest of the American Establishment does not. I consider that huge considering.
Trump advocated for Netanyahu. Of course he was on Israel side all along. Only the dimmest white nationalist thought otherwise. Israel does benefit but that doesn’t mean that the Sunni Arabs aren’t out to kill the Shia. Its not Israelis Assad is fighting on the ground in large numbers. Those are Muslims. Israel treats Al Qaeda’s boo boo’s when they get hurt while letting a Palestinian child die that doesn’t agree to be a snitch for medical treatment of a congenital birth defect.
You didn’t give an alternative. You are crazy but a nobody so there is no use to drag out your crazy like I’ve done in the past for public documentation purposes.
Syria is a playground for proxies in the region. The US is Israel and the Gulf State’s psychopathic hit man. Anyone who wants to live should head to Western Europe if they haven’t already. If war with Russia occurs I hope the Gulf States and Israel are bombarded with Russian nukes. I would consider it a grave injustice if there was life still in those states. It looks like “Zionism” is strong with me. Russia and China would be destroyed too in WWIII. Then there is the nuclear winter the rest of the world would suffer. A higher cost will be paid if the US goes out in a nuclear war than bankruptcy. Maybe Osama Bin Laden’s plan of bankrupting the US wasn’t such a bad idea after all (who knew the whole entire American Establishment was that psychopathic and sought thrills through war with Russia?) if it did lead the US into having a more humble foreign policy. The question is can the US be bankrupted and what does it do afterwards? Was Osama Bin Laden correct in his analysis that it would turn tail and run home and become isolationist while tending to its economic wounds? The Shia Crescent would make a fine quagmire and is preferable to nuclear war. Nuclear war would start in the Shia Crescent if it was to occur at the moment (besides one in North Korea). Iran is probably a goner either way but nuclear war would be far more destructive. The end result in a bankruptcy would be the Salafi Jihadist backed by the Gulf States would run around in the Shia Crescent with death squads taking territory for their caliphate while fighting the survivors. That appears to be the plan anyway. Its what is going on wherever the Salafi Jihadist take camp.
I guess a counter argument could be that we cay pray, protest and maybe these soulless monsters will stop being soulless monsters. A problem with these soulless monsters is that their brain does not register fear correctly: https://youtu.be/mzUsaXfSQDY
Trump is the peace candidate. We were lucky to have him instead of Hillary. EXTREMELY LUCKY! Now Trump might be smart enough to not go after Iran. He seems to understand fear. He is not a psychopath like Hillary Clinton is. How about the rest of them? The Democrats are trying to get rid of one of their good representatives because she wants an investigation regarding the Syrian chemical attacks. They have this deep interest in provoking nuclear countries, pivoting into nuclear countries, getting in their business. Russia thinks the US is irrational and can’t be dealt with. There is no democratic solution to this and whoever thinks so is dreaming. Either way with democracy we have a choice between psychopath A or psychopath B. Who will win the election, a psychopath! Its not just the officials its the think tanks, its the media. The whole damn thing is one big psychopathic orgy of violence. They frame everything in such a way. I watched Dennis Kucinich talk reason while the interviewer kept on trying to frame the conversation around regime change. I don’t know why they chose to interview Kucinich when they really wanted someone on the left to come on and agree with them that the prospect of a lot of dead bodies is thrilling.
I’d like there be an alternative to war. Perhaps those senior officers Chalmers Johnson talked about are still around to stage a coup. Perhaps the Chinese can safely cash in their chips. Nuclear war is an unacceptable outcome. The American Establishment is now talking about small nuclear wars like there is such a thing. They completely left the reservation last year.
If people don’t like what I say then give me an alternative that doesn’t revolve around a nuclear holocaust, or failed appeals to humanity because the American Establishment no longer has the cognitive capacity to register anything that is recognizably human. Its unable to. They are physically unable to. Their brains are physically unable to register anything except blood lust. Anyone who believes otherwise is a fool.
“I think that the so-called “elites” in charge running the USA are infinitely arrogant, stupid, uneducated, incompetent and irresponsible.”
There is a term for that: psychopath
Well the article that I commented about said that it wasn’t Kushner but McMasters. It does benefit Israel. The problem is that I haven’t seen anything about Kushner’s positions. I’ve just seen stuff about his fighting with Bannon without any specifics. If this article is true he is being wrongly scapegoated.
I view antisemitism as blaming someone because of their religion rather than their positions. I’ve looked for Kushner’s position on the Syrian strike. Where is it? Also there appears to be an element in Israel that isn’t crazy like Diskin and Dagan. If only they’d arrange a coup in Israel.
Nice find
The idiocy does seem to point to David Petraeus. Michael Savage pointed to the generals surrounding Trump as well. People are attacking Kushner because he is Jewish and without proof its antisemitism. From the article:
“McMaster’s friends in the media, as part of a broader strategy to increase McMaster’s power, have claimed Jared Kushner and Bannon had a major falling out. In fact Kushner and Bannon are united in their opposition to McMaster’s plan.”
Trump wasn’t a peace candidate, he was a better than Hillary candidate. He still is. He shot up one Syrian base, Hillary wanted to do them all!
Well, as long as war with Iran doesn’t include nuclear Russia I wouldn’t mind the US be emptied of its treasury while trying for regime change in Tehran if it led to the end of the American Empire. I don’t want it to happen but while facing a nuclear war with Russia, a war with Iran doesn’t seem so bad. In fact, I think it is desired if it would bankrupt the US before our psychopathic leaders get into a war with Russia or China. Its a shame Afghanistan was not the Empire’s grave. It was a perfect spot, nothing there but pedophiles and opium. Neither would be missed. The Shia Crescent may be the real grave of the American Empire. Anyone who values their lives in the Shia Crescent better start making their way to Western Europe now!
A war with Iran would be a safe way to bleed the US dry. American troops will die but our cities will not be nuked. Since there are no insiders willing to do a coup this is the best outcome.
This is good news - I hope they will continue to learn from their past mistakes so any Sunni uprising doesn't happen again.
Ahmed said that the behaviour of the Iraqi army at checkpoints “is 90 per cent better than it was before Daesh captured the city in 2014
The Iraqi government would have to be more inclusive for there to be peace and there are powerful forces in the Middle East that want to ethnically cleanse Iran and its allies. This terrible regional war will continue. The more industrious civilians in the region will flee to Western Europe where they will not be droned and have a chance at a life. The citizens in the Middle East outside of the Gulf States allied with Israel only have death and suffering to look forward to.
This still leaves the risk that subtle vulnerabilities could be hiding in plain sight, and/or that system security is undermined by insecure hardware protocols such as USB.
The irony is that Android smartphones and enterprise Linux use SeLinux which was developed by the NSA but the code can be viewed and changed by anyone.
I agree! They’ve done that already in regard to RSA.
The Linux kernels biggest problem is the vulnerabilities hiding in plain sight. That is why its a shame Wikileaks didn’t dump all the info on the Linux kernel. We are less safe because of that. They should at least report every vulnerability out in the open for it and the BSDs. A release would cause quite a fuss and that would be a good thing. The lack of transparency bothers me. It contradicts the open source spirit.
I hope someday a raspberry pi like smartphone phone can be made so that people can have total control of the operating system. The cellular phone companies have put all their users at risk in the name of profits in their closed ecosystem. Linux is free but it has bugs which are fixed daily. If they don’t update Android then they like companies that profit from the internet of things, allowing mischief to occur regardless if Google or Amazon put CIA backdoors in their products. If you aren’t using Snowden approved Tails OS for your desktop and laptop then your information could very well end up in some government’s hands. It might be a good idea to take an old PC and turn it into a router because routers rarely get firmware updates and new vulnerabilities are found everyday in the Linux kernel. Its free and unlike Windows 10 you don’t get unwanted ads and forced updates nor telemetry that could possibly be sent to some government. KDE is better than Windows 10 desktop.
The losers in all of this are American IT companies. Death by Empire. Whose going to trust them? This is another black eye for them after the Snowden revelations. Its like the US government and these companies want to lose consumer confidence. Open source is the best option. At least people have the option of viewing the source of the programs they install and are free to fork it and alter it. The irony is that Android smartphones and enterprise Linux use SeLinux which was developed by the NSA but the code can be viewed and changed by anyone. Who knows what is on Android phones? Does anyone trust them? At&t already gives our information to the US government. Why wouldn’t they insert stuff into the Android operating system? Android products aren’t updated. All those hacks will work for years because of that. Google can’t do anything about it even if they wanted to.
The funny part is that about half the internet runs on Linux and 99% of the top super computers do too but vulnerabilities in all these consumer devices using outdated Linux kernels due to laziness or government agencies will bring down the internet. An internet attack for the Guinness Book of World Records. Then we won’t have to worry about government spying because the whole global communication system will be down because of large botnets or maybe just ours in a cyberattack. The US Government is stupid. Its using these hacked and unsecure operating systems too. Its a strange policy to eat your own but thats what it is doing. There shouldn’t be an industry for exploiting these security flaws in American products. How can they be that stupid? American IT products will be as popular as American cars. They will need a bailout which means less money for the CIA. I doubt those microphone enabled spy devices are feeding information directly to the CIA (but I’m sure that they are datamining in the cloud for patterns and the information is probably more useful to the police/FBI), but it shows how this stuff shatters consumer confidence in American products. Consumers need total control of the firmware of their devices is the take away from all of this and if they don’t then they can only assume that whoever does has the power to use the device anyway they wish.
This still leaves the risk that subtle vulnerabilities could be hiding in plain sight, and/or that system security is undermined by insecure hardware protocols such as USB.
The irony is that Android smartphones and enterprise Linux use SeLinux which was developed by the NSA but the code can be viewed and changed by anyone.
I agree the US needs to be hospitalized for its DSM IV cluster B disorders and suicidal tendencies. What if Trump actually shows he has good sense and a spine? His rule is not permanent. He can’t cut a deal because the deep state won’t go along with it. The most he has is 8 years as ruler. War is a racket and these industries tied to it aren’t going to want the US to change policy. One solution is to pay them to do something useful. Space mining or something but its less fun and glamorous for these psychopaths.
I’d rather Iran be America’s kaishakunin than a nuclear power. At least the Iranians don’t have nukes. The problem is though that after death the Neocons can still terrorize the world with nuclear weapons. Why wouldn’t they use nuclear weapons as leverage? They aren’t much different than Kim Jong Un. They are adept at lying, its their Sophist Straussian heritage at work. The Sophist argue “might makes right” and America’s nuclear arsenal is very mighty indeed. In the end the nuclear powers may have to put the undead US out of its misery in a nuclear kaishakunin which I fear the most.
War with Iran is a very real possibility. I’ll take the Generals over the Neocons any and everyday of the week. I have no idea how much Iran backed the Shia militias in Iraq. There was so much propaganda and war drum beating over Iran’s nuclear program that it is hard to take serious anything said about Iran concerning the Iraq war. It is disturbing that they thought more fighting would solve the tensions caused by Saddam’s rule, de-Baathication, and differences between the citizens in the made up country called Iraq.
A war with Iran would be horrible but if the US cannot shed its imperial ways and stop doing stupid stuff then the economic impact of it is preferred to a nuclear holocaust with Russia or China. We may have only two choices. We can continue perpetual war forever (or economic collapse like Bin Laden wanted) against much weaker countries, or we can have a nuclear holocaust like Hillary Clinton wanted over something inconsequential to the US. Which do you prefer if you had to choose one? Those are the options.
The whole war on terror is a fraud. They never intended to fight it. Can you imagine fighting Nazi Germany by aiding it like the US does the Saudis? Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany would have loved the 21st century US. If WWII happened today the US would be attacking everyone but them while selling them arms to do evil against other people. 9/11 was our Pearl Harbor. Can you imagine if Pearl Harbor was treated the same as 9/11? About 16 years after and people are still trying to get justice against Saudi Arabia for 9/11. The war on terror was never meant to be won. It was meant to continue forever like they said. Its an incubator to test and develop new technologies like drones. The Israelis have the Palestinians to test weapons on. The US has unpopular spots in the Muslim world to do the same. If Japan and Germany after being defeated were treated like Iraq they would be a mess right now. If the US was serious there would be a “Wahabbist Directive” forced on the region where everything bad about Wahabbism would be removed.
Yes, there is no major difference between left and right besides some rhetoric. Do you have a source for Trump’s debt and his creditors?
Trump is going to and is supporting the Israeli-Saudi axis against Iran. Hopefully that doesn’t include nuclear war with Russia.
Donald Trump was always on Netanyahu’s side. I don’t see how anyone could see otherwise. He went on Israeli TV to campaign for the man. He actually has been more moderate towards the Israeli-Palestinian conflict than I expected he would be. He surprised me in a positive way by bringing up Israeli settlements. He has sounded like a typical American president begging Israel to behave and doing nothing to make Israel behave. Haley was a bad appointment but her reasoning on Israel is what I always expected from Trump.
Hillary offered us war with Russia with her no fly zone. How much would Obama’s signature foreign policy victory (the Iran deal) would have tied her hands I do not know. She showed a great deal of interest towards Russia. I do know that Trump always showed himself as a typical Republican on Iran. He campaigned for Netanyahu. The Israelis think he is on their settler’s state side. What I saw as the choice on November 8, 2016 was between near certain war with Russia and a likely war with Iran. I chose the latter. I was hoping he would stick it to the Saudis and Qataris. He supposed to make the Saudis pay us. They could start with the cost of the war on terror. Most of US will survive the coming bankruptcy if the very likely war with Iran happens. Nuclear weapons on the other hand are actually a serious threat compared to whatever Iran could conjure up.
After our Empire has grown hungry for a fight with a nuclear power in order to protect Al Qaeda and Neo-Nazis who overthrew their democratically elected government I’m starting to think maybe bankruptcy wouldn’t be such a bad thing for the US when the alternative is a nuclear holocaust. I don’t know if the US political class has a death wish or something but a mass nuclear suicide isn’t how I wanna leave this world.
I could imagine the grand bargain with the Russians would have them keep Crimea, end sanctions, calm things down in Europe, and the Israel-Saudi axis get their American benefactor into a quagmire in Iran on their behalf. Do the Israelis care about Russia beyond it getting in their way in the Middle East? I think the Neocons believe that there has to be an Empire because nature abhors a vacuum. They support Israel but they like to style themselves as the philosopher king’s (Sophist) of the American Empire. Trump has promised to be America first, but right behind Israel. They dislike the fact that Trump isn’t in everyone’s business and that he fired them from government. His pro-American nationalism (outside his Israeli-Saudi subservience) grates on them. They despise his more realist version of the American Empire. Where he recognizes spheres of influence the Neocons see land yet to be conquered and they don’t care about the consequences. What I don’t get is why isn’t Israel giving their agents in the US their marching orders to support Trump since President Trump may very well be the most pro-Israel president ever. For Bush it was for faith. For Trump its friendship and family.
I agree with much that is written. He has done what he has said to a degree. He has not appointed prominent neocons into office to the disappointment of the Washington Post. Its nice to see their dreams dashed. The wall has yet to be built so we will see if he keeps that one. He was always a big supporter of Netanyahu and he signaled repeatedly that he would be hostile to Iran. He is still those things but shockingly he criticized Israel on settlements.
Now for the Empire. The US like the Athenian (Empire) Delian League needs funding. Trump recognizes that the US cannot afford the Empire in its present setup so that is why he tells the Europeans to pay their share (which they haven’t been doing). He might feel more obligated to stick it to Russia if the Europeans stopped ripping the US off.
The most serious issue is that Trump has joined the Israeli-Saudi alliance against Iran and its allies. Israel wants the rest of the Middle East to be razed to the ground while Saudi Arabia wants all the Shia and their allies dead. Trump talks about “Radical Islam” but he is supporting it by supporting the Saudis and their policy in the Middle East. He hides this with promising to have concentration camps (or is it bases for Al Qaeda) in Syria for the refugees that he doesn’t want into the US. This sounds perfectly rational until one realizes that the safe zones in Syria are controlled by the Syrian government. However he says the terrorist sponsors (the Gulf States) are going to pay for these safe zones. He makes it sound like a good deal because someone else is going into debt for American imperial presence in Syria. He is continuing the policy of fighting the terrorist and supporting the terrorist sponsors. I wonder if the US is training the terrorist to fight a modern army by giving them experience through actual combat and supplying it with arms as the CIA has done. The Iraq war was a training ground for ISIS. I was hoping Trump would be hostile to the Gulf States for their support for terrorism. Why did he ally with them, letting them off the hook, and give Saudi Arabia arms to continue its massacre? That is a mystery to me. He continued the irrational war on (training) terror without a second thought. The Gulf States should have been in his ban.
Another question I have is is the Shia Crescent’s survival worth thermonuclear war for Russia and is its destruction worth thermonuclear war for Trump? Trump promised hostility towards Iran and he is fulfilling that promise. When/if the Iran war happens I wonder who is going to foot the bill and what will Russia do in response.
War with Iran is better than war with Russia. The US imperial class demands an enemy and I don’t think imaginary space alien invasions will satiate their threat inflation narratives. How about a war against harmful organisms? They are everywhere. A battle that would last forever.
Obama didn’t completely use his wisdom to avoid war with Syria. The American people through Congress prevented him from going to war with Syria.
Trump is a Salafist terrorist supporter. He like the previous administrations is trying to control and nurture it. Yesterday it was in Afghan caves, today it controls Middle Eastern cities, and tomorrow a caliphate that controls the Sunni world with new acquired territory from places that had other religious groups that weren’t Salafist. I’m sure Trump will give them the training through tough love which they need to fulfill their dreams. Spare the drone, spoil the Radical Islamist.
I think Trump’s Zionism is genuine. It is an interesting thought that a Jewish cabal is trying to have a global scale version of the clean break strategy (like the Syria war) where all the world powers drain themselves and destroy themselves. I think even ethnic nationalist want to see themselves as a “good person” and supporting bringing Muslims into the US is a symptom of that narcissism (protect the false image). Trump harms the false image of the American Empire and that is the source of the wraith in my opinion.
I’ll be shocked if the US does not go to war with Iran under Trump, but better war with Iran than war with Russia. The US Empire will have its war with somebody, so let it be with people who really can’t damage the US physically. I am curious to see if Trump deals with the Salafist supporters like Saudi Arabia and Qatar. The only thing Trump’s ambassador appointment did was to make the official policy visible to all. There is no faux liberal nonsense out there that can hide the emperor’s nakedness now. BDS is the only way to peacefully end the Israeli occupation. America’s unconditional support for Israel has already done damage to American interest in the Middle East. I guess even the idiots among the Muslim population can see what the true policy of the US and Israel has always been concerning the Palestinians now thanks to Trump. The appointment is a stroke of genius if what I read is correct and Friedman is to the right of Netanyahu. It changed nothing but the perception. Congress will fight the appointment I bet in order to keep the lie alive.
War with Iran will give the media something new to talk about. It all depends on Netanyahu and his marching orders. War with Iran is preferable to nuclear war with Russia or China (who knows what Trump is going to do there).
Israel controls the US media and many foreign governments control the think tanks. The US has people who gain power and wealth from war. Foreign governments want the US to fight their fights like a hitman who works for free and prestige. Is there an EU hand behind the Russian propaganda in the US? European officials have come out from the woodwork to demand the US be hostile to Russia. It is hard to imagine a US president can ignore all these manipulative voices and be America First. They aren’t going to stop until the US Empire breathes its last breath doing a shakedown on one of their adversaries.
The American people need to let Trump know that the only place Petraeus belongs is behind bars in Guantanamo Bay. He is a treasonous Al Qaeda supporter: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/08/31/petraeus-use-al-qaeda-fighters-to-beat-isis.html
Trump needs to stop digging through the trash and start looking around for competent men and women to hold positions in his government. Rand Paul is right. The Iraq war should be a litmus test. If they are too stupid to see that that was a mistake then they shouldn’t be anywhere near power.
True that, but I don't think any mortal is to be trusted with much power if any. Come to think of it, most of that could be said of the gawdz as well!
If they are too stupid to see that that was a mistake then they shouldn’t be anywhere near power.
Richard Spencer is angling to be the white Al Sharpton, standing up for the future permanent white minority if Trump doesn’t slow illegal immigration. Richard Spencer is a product of identity culture, illegal immigration, conservative fascination with socio-biology, and he enjoys being controversial. The alternative right never cared about being politically viable even at its inception at takimag. It costed Jack Hunter big. It seemed more at the time as a group who immaturely flirted with the taboo because they had no shot at power. Now we have someone who may actually do something about illegal immigration and this group is muddying the waters, causing Trump problems by giving his enemies ammo to slander him with.
We will see if ISIS jumped the gun in creating a caliphate before the fall of the American Empire. Al Qaeda will probably be the big winner in this in achieving its goals of further bankrupting the US but they were going to win anyway with Hillary. Trump will be a great recruiting mechanism. By electing Trump over Hillary the American people have avoided war with Russia. The US can survive and rebuild after being bled to death by the mujahedin who just has to raise their flag to draw the US in. Is Trump going to continue Obama’s policy of droning these people and special forces, or is he going to use a large ground army like Bush in Iraq. Salafi jihadist are not an existential threat to the US. If the US Empire must die by doing something stupid then let it be by fighting the Salafi jihadist and not China or Russia.
The big question I have is what will become of the Iran deal. Another Iraq sized conflict would not make America great again.
Bully as they tried to prevent a deal with Iran. They have used AIPAC to control the US Congress with fear and money.
“No other country close to the United States continues to cross the line on espionage like the Israelis do”
As for stealing: “industrial espionage—folks coming over here on trade missions or with Israeli companies working in collaboration with American companies, [or] intelligence operatives being run directly by the government, which I assume meant out of the [Israeli] Embassy.”

Stole American nuclear secrets:
https://www.lewrockwell.com/2014/01/no_author/israels-secret-nuclear-arsenal/
I should have said Western democracy. Yes, I think Israel should have the same immigration policy that their agents in the US have created here. They should face the same situation. They deserve it for how they have interfered in America. They’ve bullied the US, stole from the US, almost bankrupted it through wars, and made the US a pariah in the Middle East (and at times the world). I also think any other country that has used the US deserve whatever karma comes their way. What is good for the goose is good for the gander: https://youtu.be/lKDeyuM0-Og

That cartoon is true in parts of the US now.
That would have been a very good question. He probably has some sophism on that topic to fool people with. Israel should have the same open immigration policy as ever other democracy.
It looks grim because Christie is handling the transition team. I have to say one thing. We are learning who all our enemies are over broad. Europe is dependent on Russian oil and it is using the US to bully Russia: “Moscow is seen as a direct threat to their interests—both in its aggressive efforts to reshape global alliances and for its power to damage Western Europe, which obtains almost 40 percent of its natural gas from Russia.”
http://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-vladimir-putin-russia-hillary-clinton-united-states-europe-516895
They aren’t going to stop using and abusing the US until it is dead if they have their way. The Europeans should pursue alternative energy and not nuclear war. We the people need to take note of all the reasons and people who are pushing US foreign policy in dangerous directions foreign and domestic. This clearly shows that Europe is pushing for violent confrontation with Russia, trying to shakedown their oil supplier with the US military.
If you aren’t seeking my attention then why did you reply to me in the first place and every subsequent reply? Well, at least you have some insight into your condition even if you are denial about it, projecting it onto others, being generally unpleasant. You will not get anymore narcissistic supply from me 😉
1 2 3 blocked.
First of all, I come from a military family that has fought for the US in every war starting with the American revolution. Second, you attacked me rambling with a bunch of angry nonsense and no arguments like an angry middle school kid. If you had left me alone we would not be arguing over the internet about your temper tantrums. Third, my original post was about the establishments well documented support for Al Qaeda (thanks to wikileaks/Seymour Hersh/DIA documents). I can only conclude since you won’t supply anything other than written verbal abuse that you are fond of Al Qaeda and its supporters foreign and domestic. I have relatives that have been injured fighting what became ISIS. Fourth, its been awhile since I’ve had someone mentally disordered wanting my attention and I can’t leave well enough alone sometimes. I can come to no other conclusion that you are either trolling, an extremely mentally disturbed individual in need of professional treatment, or both. If you stop replying then I will stop replying. Its that simple.
Please try to have me banned. If you can get Ron Unz or any official writer here to say that they want me gone I’ll gladly leave and never to return. I’ll blocked the website so I couldn’t accidentally comeback.
John McCain, John Kerry, Benedict Arnold served their country too what is your point? That doesn’t mean that they are good human beings who care about their country (they aren’t), or the people they betrayed. I know a guy who fought against the Salafist in Afghanistan. There is no love lost between American soldiers who have fought Al Qaeda and Al Qaeda. Petraeus has all those stars but he is still an Al Qaeda loving traitor. I got a letter from someone who served and his wife who he claims is serving in the military on the behalf of the Democrat Party. I wasn’t blown away by his service to Hillary Clinton. I also got something in the mail from the Republican Party ranting about the imaginary Iranian bomb and Radical Islamist ( they are too complicit to say Saudi Arabia).
At least I can back up my arguments!

You gotta get that narcissistic supply from somewhere. Why here?
He may despair (assuming that he is real and is anthropomorphic) but everything I said was pretty much true.
I expect a more thorough analysis from a man who belongs to Mensa.
Obama will go down as one of the best Presidents of the 21st century. The bar is set mighty low. We did get an Iran deal and he has been resistant to push for confrontation with Russia. Russia understand the US is out to make war profits. The US nurses adversaries, grows them in a garden, then spends a fortune to kill them. That is what it has done for at least the last 15 years. What is ISIS going to do to average Joe plutocrat? Nothing. The only thing average Joe plutocrat fears is a decrease in arms sells. One just has to look at imperial Japan to see what happens when the US gets serious. The reason Obama has changed war is because the enemy is so pathetic and weak they really can’t do anything to us. No American deaths no bad publicity. There is a threat of home grown terrorism via disaffected Muslims who seek to punish us for our foreign policy (but they don’t hit the oligarchy do they? No, average Joe plutocrat is safe.) and morons like Petraeus/Hillary Clinton who ally with Al Qaeda and their underlings who train and arm them. The US political establishment is allied with moderate head choppers when the US is at war with moderate head choppers. No one explains what a moderate head chopper is. We know they are with Al Qaeda and they can’t be separated from Al Qaeda. Perhaps there isn’t a nickels worth of difference between them and that is why. They all look and act the same. Do they hack in moderation? Yet no one serious argues that the US supporters of the head choppers should be tried for treason. They assume the American people are stupid and easily manipulated. The head choppers are a scary boogeyman that temporary replaced the Soviets and rogue states as the next big bad. Our greatest enemies are plutocrats who support terrorism and terrorist sponsoring states like Saudi Arabia and Qatar who help fund propaganda to keep the war machine humming with new targets to knock off. Obama let them down but all the noise indicates that Hillary Clinton will make a killing. She will be Queen of the head choppers!
Waco was a horrible crime.
We should get on twitter and ask Donald Trump if he will charge them for treason, and whatever else that would be feasible to punish their treachery. I hope he does it. We all need to encourage him on it.
I agree they are propagandized and they don’t have a frame of reference to understand where we are coming from. Besides appealing to their prejudices I don’t see how one could change their opinion besides providing them with documents made available to the public. I think the released DIA report on the West and the Gulf states supporting a Salafist Principality would be more easily to swallow than videos about 9/11 arguing that it was demolition. One thing the DIA report and Wikileaks material came from the beast itself.
I don’t think 9/11 was a coup. It was a new raison d’etre for our rulers. The coup happened a long time ago, during the cold war or before. The cold war ended and we had rogue states all over the place all of a sudden, and the US went to fight them to Pat Buchanan’s dismay.
There is no steel from the twin towers to examine. It was immediately shipped to China after the collapse.
“Steel was the structural material of the buildings. As such it was the most important evidence to preserve in order to puzzle out how the structures held up to the impacts and fires, but then disintegrated into rubble. Since the collapse of steel-framed skyscrapers due to fires is completely unprecedented, the steel should have been subjected to detailed analysis. So what did the authorities do with this key evidence of the vast crime and unprecedented engineering failure? They recycled it!”
http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/groundzero/cleanup.html
The government blew up the buildings angle shouldn’t be pursued. Clearly the deep state and Israel benefited from 9/11.
There are more documents out there to study if a leaker is inclined to release them to wikileaks: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/05/12/the-fbi-is-keeping-80-000-secret-files-on-the-saudis-and-9-11.html
The members of the Deep state could have very well known about the hijackers and their plot. The CIA knew two hijackers were in the US and withheld the data from the FBI. The same thing could be said about the Boston bombing. The Russians warned us. Mossad was shadowing hijackers. It could very well be that the bombers got support in high places and allowed to conduct their operation. I don’t know. I know as much about the machinery of such things as I do about the physics of why the buildings collapsed.
I think questioning 9/11 outside of documents like the 28 pages is a discrediting vocation for the one who does it. We have proof that the US backs Al Qaeda in the Middle East (Libya/Syria). We have proof that Saudis and Qataris finance it. We have proof that Israel provides Al Qaeda with healthcare. I don’t see why we need to have an evolution vs creationism debate on 9/11 when there is plenty of evidence that the threat was over-hyped and that there are Americans allied with the attackers now in very high places. I think people around Hillary are pragmatic and sociopathic like her. I think if 9/11 was an inside job it would have come from that cabal because they are Al Qaeda’s biggest supporters in Syria/Libya, believe might makes right, and are duplicitous enough to actually do this. Who is calling the shots? Obama and his generals don’t seem to be keen in helping Al Qaeda in Syria. Dempsey reportedly went behind his back to undermine the CIA and Al Qaeda in Syria. I have a hard time believing Obama is the orchestrator of all these machinations. There is ample proof that there are Americans at the very top and their underlings who have aided Al Qaeda and we are still at war with them. Perhaps we could talk a President Trump into it charging them with treason. They hate him. He hates them. The US needs a good political establishment enema. The thinktanks and institutions connected to foreign governments and the deep state should be cleansed of traitors.
It would be nice if the comment system had a nested menu to the side of sorts that allowed for users to thumb up or down conversations, comments, allowing them to go to posts of interest on the page. A feedback rep system would be nice too.
That bears repeating. Also might be worth some of Unz' valuable time to take a look at some of the PD/Freeware forum softwares like phpBB and SMF, just for ideas. Ease of following reply-chaining is one area of needed improvement, arguably.

Well I guess we could say that about Hillary if we only talked about her wikileaks conversations/speeches where she acknowledges Saudi/Qatari terror, and those countries are the ones with Israel that she doesn’t want to bomb to smithereens. Trump says outlandish stuff for attention and who knows what he is going to do. She on the other hand is 100% serious. This ad fits her more than Goldwater: https://youtu.be/dDTBnsqxZ3k
What is the Goldwater Girl offering besides perpetual lying (public vs private position), globalism, a hyper Bush II foreign policy, and nuclear war?
Hillary Clinton’s policy to provoke nuclear war with Russia in order to protect Al Qaeda has me seriously considering voting for Donald Trump. Donald Trump is an imperfect messenger but he does get the crowd going. We probably won’t have another oligarch who puts forth issues Americans care about. They will be like the Clintons, whores for hire.
I hope Donald doesn’t go the Sarah Palin route. His army of poor whites are easily lied to. Palin and Huckabee still have them fooled. They maintain Israel’s grievances. They watch Fox News and absorb the prejudices and propaganda fed to them through it. They don’t hate on the rich white people who trickle up the economics but Hispanics for taking the jobs. This suites the rich white people fine. Trump is concerned about Hispanics (people who came here partially because they were screwed by rich white people with NAFTA/interventions) and not the rich white people who control the situation. It is one of his faults like his love for Netanyahu. The ruling class doesn’t like them or him. The government continues to expect them to take up arms but so far they have failed to do so. The outcome would probably be a bloody crushed rebellion of people who will have few sympathetic supporters because of their religiosity and traditional conservatism. Its best to have an escape plan like Chalmers Johnson preached!
Trump knows his audience. He like any good businessman gave them what they want. He wants tribute paid to the American Empire which would go to the coffers of the deep state.
It sounds like he interjected conspiracy theory material into his political analysis on why Trump is this years Obama.
We will see. Trump is preferable to Hillary. If having assets scattered across the earth discourages him from bombing countries then I think that is a positive thing. We’ve already had several anti-American presidents that have been overly loyal to other nations, getting us into wars in Europe and the Middle East that we had no business in. They allowed for economic trade imbalances, economic inequality, and Madoff’s chump change doesn’t compare to the Wall Street bailout and war profiteering. How could Trump be any worse?
Its funny that people like Rubin and Stephens are all multiculturalism for the US and all nativist apartheid when it comes to Israel. There is a psychological term called projection which states you project onto others your own failings. I think it sums up these gatekeepers except the rabble they lost control over supports their vision of Israel too. The only reason to pay attention to Rubin is to get a good belly laugh from her nativist war propaganda for Israel. The comments section at the Washington Post is always better, with most of the people making fun of her instead of agreeing with her.
I agree mostly to that. I still think that all avenues have not been explored. We have learned that protests, evangelism against the deep state, and democracy do not work very well. If they can’t be enticed to pursue other profitable sources of income then there is no solution besides bankruptcy and someone else’s deep state out competes them, possibly reducing them and their empire to radioactive rubble.
Is there anyway to entice the Deep State to do something productive instead of war? Can they be paid a trillion dollar tribute annually to put solar panels on people’s houses in the US? How about space travel and resource gathering operations in space. I think that is the only way to deal with the current situation. We’ve tried elections. The people won’t go for someone who is pro-American. When they have the option the full force of the establishment comes down on that candidates head and they don’t get the resources that an establishment approved candidate receives.
That is a false dichotomy. There is another option which is to side with the United States. The US doesn’t have to pick sides. We can follow our founding fathers advice and stay out of other people’s wars. Israel is talking to Russians about the fake peace process. Let it be Putin’s problem.
The victors should be above murdering someone in cold blood without due process and in such a savage manner. He was captured there was no need to do that. It doesn’t mean he shouldn’t have been put to death at some point. It reflects poorly on them and their psychopathic queen who gloated about it.
With all due respect, but the list of those deserving the death penalty for crimes deserving of the death penalty is long and Qaddafi was certainly not among the top ten of that list.
He was captured there was no need to do that. It doesn’t mean he shouldn’t have been put to death at some point.
I’m not voting for either of them. However, I think people should remember that Hillary is a psychopathic puppet. She has her oligarchs and their marching orders: http://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/hillarys-sheldon-adelson/
One can elect one oligarch, or the whore of Babylon owned by a cabal of oligarchs. I think more attention should be given to the ventriloquist and what they say.
I always thought Maher came off as kind of shady and attention seeking. The only political show like his that I liked was the McLaughlin Group.
Its bread and circuses for the masses in order to keep them from the important things like the levers of power.
I came to see if Philip Giraldi is talking Turkey since there is a coup underway. I’m curious to hear his opinion and analysis on the situation. It looks like the Turkey deep state has had enough of Erdogan. Why now?
How about Alex Jones? He has 9/11 conspiracies and a Jewish wife or ex-wife: https://youtu.be/NmmaU5pL81g
Video Link(interview with Howard Stern). Is there something nefarious going on there besides attention seeking, schizophrenia, and making money?
You've got your Iraq wars mixed up. Iraq War 1 (1990) was "the America Empire’s unipolar moment." Iraq War 2 (2003) was for Israel.
The Iraq war wasn’t just for Israel. It was the America Empire’s unipolar moment.
Ah, that's where you are wrong. Jennifer Rubin is less of a threat because she is blowing her horn as she charges across the battlefield. Ms. Mercer, on the other hand, is stealthily infiltrating the enemy's camp, in the dead of night.
If she doesn’t say if she supports or opposes something then why should it matter to us unless she starts going Jennifer Rubin on us?
Don't hold your breath.Replies: @Johnny F. Ive
I would like more quotes from her and let them speak for themselves.
It could be considered that Iraq war 1 never ended. Anyway around Iraq War 2003 the neocons were talking up the American Empire.
Are we weak minded enough to let a trojan horse (if you are right) influence us? Aren’t we attracted to sites like this because we are interested in ideas instead of yellow journalism. We can open our mind up and not accept what we are told without question (at least I hope). Its self selecting. Its Ron Unz’s site. Is this all a nefarious plot to turn us into Likudbots? I’m not going to tar and feather someone for beliefs they may or may not have.
Since I don't follow him, I can't comment.
How about Alex Jones?
If people realize they are dealing with a Trojan horse, they stand a better chance of resisting their influence. While everyone is entitled to their beliefs, it is important that they clearly articulate them. The purpose of this requirement is to ensure that the battle of ideas is a fair one.
Are we weak minded enough to let a trojan horse (if you are right) influence us?...I’m not going to tar and feather someone for beliefs they may or may not have.
To be clear, she is not attacking Buchanon for saying the neocons are exclusively Jewish, she was attacking his "argument that the push to invade Iraq in 2003 came from a Jewish neoconservative “cabal” advising George W. Bush and acting in the best interests of Israel, rather than the U.S...."
in fingering Jewish neocons specifically, Buchanan was “seeing causal connections where none exist”
As I pointed out above, the special relationship is comprised of 3 components:
Has she spoken for the special relationship? She is against the US funding Israel. The relationship can’t be that special to her if she doesn’t want Israel to continue getting its welfare check.
I agree she is denying the Neocon’s major role. I read it as “please don’t blame the Jews.” The Iraq war wasn’t just for Israel. It was the America Empire’s unipolar moment. Here is the article in question: http://www.wnd.com/2003/03/17817/
It was written right when the war started. Does she still hold those views? That was 13 years ago.
If she doesn’t say if she supports or opposes something then why should it matter to us unless she starts going Jennifer Rubin on us? She may very well want the US to save Israel at the UN and want the US to come to Israel’s rescue militarily. I don’t know. I would like more quotes from her and let them speak for themselves.
Her Wikipedia also states:
Why does it matter if she is a Zionist or not as long as she doesn’t want the US to fund it? Her wikipedia concerning Israel doesn’t look like someone who is a neoconservative to me:
Has paleolibertarian Mercer spoken out against the "special relationship" that not only provides funding to the Zionist entity, but also diplomatic and military support? Her Wikipedia remains silent on this issue.Replies: @Johnny F. Ive, @Sean
Mercer responded to Pat Buchanan's argument that the push to invade Iraq in 2003 came from a Jewish neoconservative "cabal" advising George W. Bush and acting in the best interests of Israel, rather than the U.S., by noting that in fingering Jewish neocons specifically, Buchanan was "seeing causal connections where none exist" while failing to note the influence upon Bush by inner-circle gentile neocons such as Condoleezza Rice and William Bennett.
George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Lindsey Graham, etc aren’t Jewish. The Neocons have a large responsibility for the war in Iraq. If she doesn’t agree with that then she is wrong and would have an uphill battle trying to deflect the solid proof that we have. I think in the quoted text that you provided that she is saying don’t just blame the Jews, blame everyone who supported that awful war. Interesting enough Sharon was more interested in Americans killing Iranians for him than Iraqis. Has she spoken for the special relationship? She is against the US funding Israel. The relationship can’t be that special to her if she doesn’t want Israel to continue getting its welfare check.

Harvard has an axe to grind. I don’t see anything wrong with entertaining different points of view. The Harvard Crimson could use some openness to experience. A ivy league institution shouldn’t wallow in ignorance. Thy didn’t publish the response because it didn’t conform to their rigid beliefs and agenda. I think they have a ready made role for you and they didn’t know what to do when you didn’t conform to it besides deny you a platform to respond to their libel.

Her response in her Wikipedia regarding the Gaza war shows that she sees Palestinians as human beings. Unless you guys have some quotes from her that show her inner Likud I’m calling this discussion racism.

“My number-one priority is to dismantle the disastrous deal with Iran.” –Donald Trump
http://time.com/4267058/donald-trump-aipac-speech-transcript/
Ron Paul let that stuff be put under his name. Trump has shown the way by unapologetically hammering on points that Americans care about. It is in their interest to listen to Ron Unz and not establishment hacks. I wish Ron Unz luck!
Hopefully the attacks intensify in such a way for Trump to sour on Israel. Trump is one in a billion. He isn’t the perfect punishment that the establishment deserves but he seems to be good enough. Hopefully he wins since Bernie the sheepdog who is more predictable isn’t going to win. It will be a very interesting 4-8 years with Trump in charge. If we must be ruled by oligarchs, we might as well be ruled by them directly and not through their craven puppets. Trump can’t be worse than the others and he creates his own narrative just like what someone said about our Empire. The establishment can judicially study each new reality that Trump creates on a whim and they get to keep their money. I think the Neocons will slither back to the Republican Party after the Trumpicane moves on through.
I agree with the article except when it called Israel a “friendly foreign state.” Its anything but that.
I think the focus on the towers has hurt the search for the truth concerning 9/11. It was an emotionally traumatizing event. The relationships and motivations of the US and its allies before and since are justification enough to realize we have been had. I don’t know who knew about the attacks nor if there were other methods employed to bring down the towers. No one does because the evidence was shipped to China right after the attacks without analysis. I don’t understand the fixation with the towers. The evidence which can be tested is gone. What we do have is the 28 pages. We know the CIA wanted to take Osama out before 9/11 and saw pre-9/11 radicalization of Muslims by Israel’s actions as a threat. We know Osama was not formerly charged with anything. You’d have to be a complete moron to not realize that the War on Terror is a fig leaf for the Empire of Chaos to do its thing which is to destroy.
One does not need to believe in the JFK conspiracy theory to know that there some really bad people out there with power they should not have. If JFK lived these people would still be there and they would still be bad. One does not need to have a highly emotional fixation on his death to be wary of what was going on at that time.
At least the oligarchs are out in the open about their intentions so no one is under the impression that their vote matters. The only hope I have now concerning foreign policy is that the US military will not go for something completely stupid. If Seymour Hersh and Chalmers Johnson are right then the US military has its limits (war with Iran/supporting Salafi Jihadist). That will be the only check on the next president’s psychopathy. Hillary is unapologetic concerning the evil she has done. She might very well fulfill all of Saban’s desires if she is unopposed.
David Petraeus is their cheerleader in Syria: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/08/31/petraeus-use-al-qaeda-fighters-to-beat-isis.html?via=twitter_page
Qatar is trying to re-brand them as moderates by having Al Nusra dissociate itself from the parent organization: http://uk.reuters.com/article/2015/03/04/uk-mideast-crisis-nusra-insight-idUKKBN0M00G620150304
The US likes to keep the term “terrorist” vague so it can bomb whoever it pleases in the 3rd world.
ISIS is something to bomb. It is the perfect enemy for our war profiteers. It is weak and evil. The Sunni Arabs are going to reign in the terrorist as much as Israel is going to reign in their settlers. All the great powers including the US and Russia are too chicken to deal with these states as they deserve. I stopped taking things seriously at that part in the article. We might as well put our faith in god or ask Santa to make ISIS go away. If people in the Middle East value their lives they’d be heading to Western Europe. No one is going to drop bombs on them there.
ISIS is the creation of the Neocons when they fired the Iraqi government and put the Shia in power. It is the product of American intervention in Syria and Libya. It is the product of the Sunni Arab policy goal of destroying the Shia and their allies. ISIS provides a reason for the US Empire to loot the American treasury. Why would our war profiteers want to kill off this lucrative boogeyman?
On a serious note. How many dead Russian soldiers killed by NATO does it take to start World War III?
I think the major difference between the parties is rhetoric. They have to appeal to different demographics to gain power and do damage to this country. I always thought conservatism like progressivism was some kind of pragmatism that followed fads (one based on what one grew up with and another going for new shiny objects). Baby boomers are far more tolerant than their parents generation. They divorced with ease while their parents stayed together for life. They lived through the glory days of the United States. They have grown up inside the belly of an Empire and have been fed its propaganda all their lives. I think what we are seeing is a shift in values based on demographics. Jennifer Rubin is defending the new normal for conservatism. She seeks to maintain the existing order which is an Empire that caters to Israel.
I imagine the million Iraqi refugees in Syria when this all started collectively sighed in despair. If I were these people I’d go to Western Europe too where it is safe.
The last paragraph sums up the problem perfectly. The US engaged in war profiteering and used the cover of the war on terror for wars of choice. ISIS is the perfect enemy for forever war. It is a repugnant entity that really can’t do anything to us in the US. If the US actually wanted to end the threat of terrorism it would have went after these Sunni regimes that fund and support these groups.
Its hard to believe that the US wouldn’t know what Turkey’s true intentions was. Even if US policymakers weren’t enthusiastic about it it is hard to believe that they wouldn’t have realized that Turkey would take aim at the Kurds. I think its the Clean Break strategy and low risk war profiteering. Is the US going along with Turkey attacking the Kurds because it wanted access to Turkey’s air base? http://www.todayszaman.com/anasayfa_turkey-agrees-to-grant-us-access-to-i-ncirlik-air-base_394422.html
It looks like a trade to me.
If a person is too lazy to look up what something means on the internet (I remember having to use those huge big dictionaries) then are they really going to put the effort into understanding what is being expressed?
Cutoff all foreign and diplomatic and military aid to Israel, for real.
no amount of bribery will make Netanyahu shut up
To cut the ties with Israel would require eliminating or breaking the Jewish national victim cult scheme that dominates United States politics.Replies: @Johnny F. Ive
It is time to cut the tie that binds.
Don’t forget the village idiot Christian Zionist Republican base!
Would Israel’s military officers support the decision to bomb Iran if Netanyahu is given the toys required to effectively bomb Iran? Is it the feasibility that they protested or was it the stupidity of it all? There is nothing sadder than a whipped Empire. The Iran deal is a great accomplishment and what will the rest of the world do if Israel starts a war with Iran over false pretenses? Will they come to the aid of a state that is becoming more fascist as time goes on?
We all knew it was true but I like how Trump puts it all in perspective from the donor’s point of view. This goes to show we should ignore the puppets and look at who is pulling their strings. Donald Trump is by far the most honest Republican in the field this time around. I’m sure if he doesn’t win all of them will gladly take his money and do him favors once again if he asks.
The merchants of death want their war. It would be good for their businesses. I’d hate to be an ethnic group that is the public face of American militarism if the economy comes crashing down after the next president makes war with Iran. That is why AIPAC is hiding behind Citizens for a Nuclear Free Iran. They don’t want to reap the whirlwind. The war with Iran will go south and they don’t want to be blamed for it. The American public knows enough to buy into the propaganda but not enough to see through the violent children’s cartoon like arguments. Israel is the name of this violent cartoon show that sales wars not children’s toys. I saw a video asking people about the bill of rights and they were like “yeah its old, we should get rid of it.” Its why we are a Republic and not a democracy. Its a shame though that the ones who mostly do run things (the shadow government) have turned it into a casino and a hitman who works at his own expense. You’d think they could make enough from bombing all the other countries they are bombing. They greedily want to expand it to Tehran where there could be ground troops and those ground troops would need expensive resources brought to them by overpaid hucksters. Its a Halliburton, KBR and a Blackwater (whatever they call themselves now) dream. And Obama is trying to deny them their dream.
I agree. Also there is the Turkish lobby in the US and it has infiltrated the US government and political establishment according to Sibel Edmonds.
There is a lot of money to be made in militarism and ISIS is the perfect enemy. It can’t do serious damage to the US, its despicable, and it can be bombed perpetually.
Bernie Sanders is sounding good to me so far. He understands that immigration is meant to drive down wages with trickle up economics. He is attacking the issue in a better way than Donald Trump (who seems to be the best candidate among the Republicans and the one with the most integrity). He lacks the baggage of someone on the right would have on this issue (of course they might dig something up on him). He has tied the issue solely on his opposition to the destructive impulses of neoliberalism. He also supports the Iran deal. I wonder how he will deal with our entrenched corporate welfare recipients that benefit from militarism. Surely he can find something better for them to do.
Nobody still peddling stale nation-of-immigrants butthurt is going to work for a sane immigration policy. They are what they are, and they just can't help themselves. "Comrades, we must continue the fight against the great enemy!" (Aka the people who created this nation.)
Think about what people who came from Europe did to the Native Americans, the atrocities committed. Think about the horrors of slavery. Think about what we did to the Asian folks that came to build the railroads and the Asian Exclusion Act. Think about discrimination against Italians, Irish, Jews, virtually everybody else who was not like the people who were here.
I had a neighbor from Vietnam. This person mentioned that their relatives said that they have seen these POW. They were described as “thin.” Perhaps being a compromised person is why McCain is such a sellout on every issue. I think Donald Trump should use his vast resources and find out the truth. It can be a rallying cry, “bring our boys home!”
NAFTA contributed to illegal immigration. American Agribusiness vs everyone else. Does anyone consider buying off the surveillance military police state industrial complex and use it for something useful like high speed rail across the country, desalination, and solar panels on buildings? The libertarian pipe dream died with Rand’s political ambitions. All the war profiteers and voyeurs need is another 9/11 to re-cement the gravy train their way. What would you have them do with all that tribute money borrowed from China? They are going to get it anyway until there is no more to get. It is either work with them and kiss their tail like Rand Paul and most of the other politicians, or be treated like Ron Paul. Would Lockheed Martin care if the same F-35 budget went to high speed rail or not if they ended up with the same profit? Do you think there is a carrot tasty enough to redirect them from this path, or are we going to be like Ron Paul and preach abstinence ignoring the fact that they are the profiteering equivalent of horny teenagers? Congress sees it as a jobs program. I think we need to stop emulating Israel and start emulating China when it comes to what is important (economic growth instead of militarism). Libertarians need to consider using psychology and slowly transform these parasites into prosperous businesses that do not require state socialism, asking these addicts to go cold turkey isn’t going to work.
The war on terror is easy pickings because the enemy isn’t going to doggy paddle across the Atlantic, and if they do get across to the other side the damage they could inflict is a scratch compared to what China and Russia would do. The Obama administration saved us from another war larger than Iraq that would have cost us trillions of dollars for nothing but human sacrifices for the Christian Zionist war god Netanyahu… I mean Yahweh and the Saudi King of Al Qaeda.
I wouldn’t be surprised if some war profiteers, political officials, and Saudis between smooches discussed how much fun they were going to have after 9/11. Could they not find Saudi Arabia on a map when Bush went after Al Qaeda and its supporters? Why isn’t Saudi Arabia leveled? They are the ones funding and spreading terrorism to all corners of the earth. The problem with the 9/11 truth movement is that they are more interested in proving through grainy videos how the building went down instead of demanding the 28 pages uncensored and then going from there. I wish someone would just wikileak it all. Surely someone has access to all the relevant material like Snowden did. They should make a copy of it, send it to wikileaks, take a trip to Russia, and let wikileaks protect them. Then the world can learn the truth behind 9/11.
