We've been tricked into shitting all over ourselves and our allys again. For years Jihadists and their supporters in the U. S. have been trying to get rid of Assad with intention of setting up a jihadist caliphate for futher jihadist expansion. Now, they are achieving success with stupid American military help.
Cheerleading US Aggression

Journalism is the first casualty of wars, propaganda substituting for truth-telling.Whenever America goes to war or plans one, media scoundrels march in lockstep - cheerleading aggression, ongoing or coming. A culture of deceit persists, wars glorified in the name of peace. Propaganda wars precede hot ones, one nation after another targeted for regime change, rule of law principles ignored, accountability lacking for the highest of high crimes.A New York Times report read like a Pentagon press release, saying Trump ordered “missile strike(s) in Syria in response to the Syrian government’s chemical weapons attack this week…”“The missiles were aimed at Syrian ...
Trump Betrays Trumpism: Syria in the Crosshairs

Are we going to war based on fake intelligence?President Donald Trump has launched an attack on a Syrian air base in retaliation for the alleged sarin gas attack supposedly carried out by Bashar al-Assad’s government on Islamist rebels in Idlib. The irony is this contradicts every statement he ever made about Syria in the presidential campaign. Furthermore, this attack takes place barely 72 hours after the alleged incident, with no clear evidence that Assad was responsible. In ordering this strike – more than 50 missiles launched by US ships in the Mediterranean Sea – Trump has blown up a basic tenet of Trumpism to smithereens. One of my vivid memories of the 2016 campaign is ...

Democrats on Thursday responded to reports that President Trump authorized a cruise missile strike on an airbase in Syria, and the reaction appeared to be mixed. "I support the administration's strike on the air base that launched the chemical attack. I hope this teaches President Assad not to use chemical weapons again," Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., said. Trump’s quick action was in response to the chemical attack that left as many as 72 civilians dead, including woman and children. Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., and former vice presidential candidate, issued a statement: “Congress will work with the President, but his failure to seek Congressional approval is unlawful.” ...

“My fellow Americans, on Tuesday, Syrian dictator Bashar al Assad launched a horrible chemical weapons attack on innocent civilian using a deadly nerve agent Assad choked out the lives of helpful men, women and children. It was a slow and brutal death for so many…even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack. No child of God should ever suffer such horror. Tonight I ordered a targeted military strike on the airfield in Syria from where the chemical attack was launched. It is in this vital national security interest of the United States to prevent and deter the spread and use of deadly chemical weapons. There can be no dispute that Syria used banned ...

The United States launched dozens of cruise missiles Thursday night at a Syrian airfield in response to what it believes was the Syrian government's use of banned chemical weapons blamed for having killed at least 100 people on Tuesday, U.S. military officials told NBC News. Two U.S. warships in the Mediterranean Sea fired at least 50 Tomahawk missiles intended for a single target — Ash Sha'irat in Homs province in western Syria, the officials said. That's the airfield from which the United States believes the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad fired the banned weapons. There was no immediate word on casualties. U.S. officials told NBC News that people were ...

From The New York Times:WASHINGTON — For the first 10 weeks of President Trump’s administration, no adviser loomed larger in the public imagination than Stephen K. Bannon, the raw and rumpled former chairman of Breitbart News who considers himself a “virulently anti-establishment” revolutionary out to destroy the “administrative state.” But behind the scenes, White House officials said, the ideologist who enjoyed the president’s confidence became increasingly embattled as other advisers, including Mr. Trump’s daughter and son-in-law, complained about setbacks on health care and immigration. Lately, Mr. Bannon has been conspicuously absent from some ...

Is common sense beginning to creep into US policy in the Middle East? Last week Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said that the longer-term status of Syrian President Assad would be “decided by the Syrian people.” The media reported this as a radical shift in US foreign policy, but isn’t this just stating what should be obvious? What gives any country the right to determine who rules someone else? Washington is currently paralyzed by evidence-free rumors that the Russians somehow influenced our elections, but no one blinks an eye when Washington declares that one or another foreign leader “must go.”It’s only too bad that President Obama hadn’t followed ...
Are We Headed for a Replay of World War I?

Today [Sunday] marks the one-hundredth anniversary of Woodrow Wilson’s message to Congress asking for a declaration of war against the Central Powers. Thus the Great War began – a conflict that destroyed European civilization and set the stage for the rise of Bolshevism, Nazism, and the death of millions in World War II. Wilson was the embodiment of the dominant ideological theme of the twentieth century: State-worship. In both the foreign and domestic realms, the great “progressive” President represented the twin aspects of statist ideology: war and the centralization of political authority. And his presidency was emblematic of the key link between these two aspects of ...

Ivanka Trump and husband Jared Kushner leave after the presidential inauguration at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, Jan. 20, 2017. She converted to Judaism before marrying Jared Kushner, an Orthodox Jew, in 2009. But in Israel, it’s not that simple: You’re only Jewish if the rabbinic authorities say you’re Jewish. Last year, they questioned the credentials of the rabbi who oversaw Ms. Trump’s conversion. Then, a few weeks after her father Donald Trump won the US election, Israel’s chief rabbis made a proclamation: They were looking to change the guidelines on which Jewish conversions they recognize. According to the proposed guidelines, they said in a statement, ...

“If we were to use traditional measures for understanding leaders, which involve the defense of borders and national flourishing, Putin would count as the preeminent statesman of our time. “On the world stage, who could vie with him?” So asks Chris Caldwell of the Weekly Standard in a remarkable essay in Hillsdale College’s March issue of its magazine, Imprimis.[How to Think About Vladimir Putin, March 2017] What elevates Putin above all other 21st-century leaders? “When Putin took power in the winter of 1999-2000, his country was defenseless. It was bankrupt. It was being carved up by its new kleptocratic elites, in collusion with its old imperial rivals, the ...

Each year, hundreds of people are nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, and 2017 is no different. According to the Nobel Institute, 318 people were nominated for this year's award, including Pope Francis, Edward Snowden, the "White Helmets" of Syria...and none other than President Donald J. Trump. Trump was reportedly nominated by an American for his efforts to bring peace to the world via strength, and for combating terrorism. While the list of the nominees is kept secret for half a century, people who actually do the nominating are free to say who they nominated. Trump is considered to be a longshot. The Nobel Peace Prize recipient will be announced in October. Last ...
Congressman Justin Amash: Riding a fence made of razor wire

Like many Palestinian Americans, I was ecstatic when Justin Amash was elected Congressman from the Michigan in November 2010. There have been several American Arab members of the U.S. Congress, but Amash was the first who was solidly identified as being Palestinian. He joined a besieged group of congressional members, American Arabs who have to battle against the powerful pro-Israel lobby and also win votes against often vicious opponents. Politics is no June afternoon picking strawberries. But the key difference is that Amash, 30, a former member of the Michigan State Legislature from the 72nd District and the second youngest ember of the U.S House behind 29 year old Aaron Schock of ...

During a discussion with Russian military officers last week in Moscow, Lavrov pointed to Afghanistan as an example of Washington's longstanding policy of "managed chaos" in the Middle East. In the process, he also blew the whistle on NATO's extremely high tolerance for drug trafficking: The US operation against the Taliban and al-Qaeda was ...

Saudis, Russia, shale. That is all ye need to know in order to understand the oil market. The Saudis lead the OPEC oil cartel, Russia is their largest potential fellow traveler, and the Permian Basin in the Southwest is the oil-rich shale that stands between the other two and $100 per barrel oil. There was a time when the Saudi-led cartel of 13 oil producers could more or less control the price of oil. If the market got so high as to encourage the development of alternatives to oil, the Saudis would open the taps and increase production to bring prices down. If prices fell to unacceptable levels, Saudi Arabia and its partners would agree to production cutbacks, and stabilize or boost ...

Liberals have been doing whatever they want for close to a decade in this country without repercussion. Well, that just changed, all thanks to President Trump. Rasmea Odeh has become famous for her attacks against President Trump. She was one of the organizers for the Women’s March that blocked roads to protest his inauguration. Now, she has been deported due to her sordid past, via The Daily Caller. Rasmea Odeh has pleaded guilty to “unlawful procurement of naturalization,” and she will be removed from the country as part of plea deal to avoid jail time. The charges were laid because Odeh neglected to mention that she was a convicted terrorist during her immigration ...

The world "cries out for American and European leadership" through the EU and Nato, US senator John McCain said on Friday (24 March). In a "new world order under enormous strain" and in "the titanic struggle with forces of radicalism … we can't stand by and lament, we've got to be involved," said McCain, a former Republican presidential candidate who is now chairman of the armed services committee in the US Senate. Speaking at the Brussels Forum, a conference organised by the German Marshall Fund, a transatlantic think tank, he said that the EU and the US needed to develop "more cooperation, more connectivity".

No age discrimination: Muslim ‘migrants’ rape elderly German women, 90 and 79

In Europe, no female of whatever age is safe from Muslim “migrants”: Young girls are advised to wear magic tattoos to protect themselves from being molested in public swimming pools. Young women are advised to wear sneakers so they can outrun ‘refugees’. The physically handicapped are not safe (see “Wheelchair-bound woman raped by refugees at Sweden asylum center“). Kind-hearted women who help “migrants” by working in asylum centers get molested. Even really old women are not safe from being raped. Here are two examples: (1) On July 24, 2016, a 40-year-old “refugee from Eritrea” — code words for a North African Muslim ...

NOTE: The fact that a NATO Commander has to ask questions about aircraft spraying chemicals over a potential battle area under his command speaks to a sophisticated and organized coverup that surpasses development of the atomic bomb known as the MANHATTAN PROJECT. In both cases we see the development of secret weapons intended to target Civilian Populations. General Fabio Mini, NATO Commander: “Concerning chemical trails, I’ll tell the truth. I try to study this phenomenon in depth. Now I’ll say something that could bother someone. I used to think it was a swindle too but the pictures we can find online are really dreadful because the trails intersect regularly.” ...
