Trump has gone ahead and banned the wrong countries. His advisors lie to him about the Shia. As Nicholas Nassim Taleb says, he should be banning the Salafists, since if nobody opposes them, they will get their way.
But we should see his method as typical Trump style. Rather than meeting in bipartisan committees, arguing out the details, and pushing a bill through Congressional compromise only to have it hated on anyway, he simply does something to learn what the results are. Will the order be obeyed? Can it be objected to on procedural grounds? (Legislative, no objection; judicial, an apparent objection, but Trump’s exact behavior is legalized by 8 U.S.C. § 1182(f).)
This has thrown ordinary liberals into spasms of fear, including many people who I know and love personally. If Trump is actually aiming to marginalize Muslims, as they fear, he will have a very hard time of it. Putin’s approach to integration has had far healthier fruit. But Trump’s method of direct action is a necessary attitude in a completely broken political system.
@ J.L.Seagull:
“Trump has gone ahead and banned the wrong countries. His advisors lie to him about the Shia. As Nicholas Nassim Taleb says, he should be banning the Salafists, since if nobody opposes them, they will get their way [..]”
^ I agree with wholeheartedly!
The Gulf States should have been at the top of his list. Mind you… according to the word out there in the ‘dark dungeons of the interwebz,’ he seems to be trolling the Obama administration by naming the exact same countries they did previously, even RT was reporting on that factoid all day today.
So, I donno. Make of that what you will. I’m just passing info along, that’s all.
-TL2Q
The countries Trump has banned are the ones the US has destabilised, attacked or destroyed.
Cleaning up the swamp the US has created out of a once stable and functioning Middle East will affect all the Middle East – not just the countries named.
@ Franz:
“The countries Trump has banned are the ones the US has destabilised, attacked or destroyed [..]”
That’s very true, but then again that was caused by previous US administrations, or should I say regimes? ;-)
Is it really fair to blame (and I’m not saying you are) Trump for inheriting the unholy mess that is the Middle East? In the interest of self-preservation it makes perfect sense to ban people from the countries previous Us regimes destabilized, at the very least because, just as Trump himself said; “Until we can figure out what the hell is going on,” or words to that effect.
My contention, just like with J.L.Seagull above, is that common sense says that Salafist-infested countries should have been at the top of the list.
Lastly; every sovereign nation in the world has every right to decide who they allow to enter their territory or not.
I’m sick and tired of hearing the Soros fake-left crowd claiming that ‘migration’ to a country of the migrants’s choice is a form of “human right,” it ain’t and it never was a “human right.” In fact, if I was in charge, I would go a step further and suspend Asylum Seeking laws/treaties and the Geneva Refugee Convention indefinitely until further notice.
Because… the Geneva Refugee Convention was written when 1- the world population was roughly about half of what it is right now and 2- it was written at a political time when things looked VERY different than they look today. It’s an obsolete treaty that should be scraped, or the very least reformed to reflect the realities recent times.
-TL2Q
I was certainly not blaming Trump, who has inherited a near-failed and dysfunctional state. Proof of that is that Soros and the neocons are free to act against the interests of the US people and their democracy without any hindrance.
As a ‘deplorable and irredeembable’, I cannot help but think about the impossibility of vetting people from the failed states which the Bush/Obama/Clinton regimes have created.
False identities from those states must be available for laughably small amounts of money and no amount of vetting by the USA will be able to overcome that fact.
I recall, when the Free Soviet Jews hoax was at its apogee, that many Russian non-Jews fabricated stories about ‘alleged’ persecution to get into Canada or the USA. The prevailing antagonism and phony claims of Russian antisemitism made the refugee boards, consisting of low-information-sympathisers, moles and wealthy housewives, accept them at face value.
Most of the Odessa Mafia, which Soros would have considered a ‘socially allied element’, gained free access to the West in those days in just that way.
Trump is being responsible and smart. Refreshing, but anathema to the ‘crazies in the basement’ and the disoriented remnants of the failed (for now) Clinton Dynasty.
@ Franz:
Roger ya pal! Loud and clear ;-)
“As a ‘deplorable and irredeembable’, I cannot help but think about the impossibility of vetting people from the failed states which the Bush/Obama/Clinton regimes have created [..]”
As a fellow “irredeemable deplorable” myself, I must say: you ain’t wrong. That’s why so-called world leaders should be getting extra hard and ban all forms of immigration, particularly as you said; from [destabilized] failed States.
=TL2Q
But are they? Not in the EU regime they’re not, anyways. They’re doubling-down on their efforts to allow any Tom, Dick and Harry into Europe, just because… (?)
“I recall, when the Free Soviet Jews hoax was at its apogee, that many Russian non-Jews fabricated stories about ‘alleged’ persecution to get into Canada or the USA [..]”
Yeah… history is repeating itself! Of course it will repeat itself since the players in power are more or less the same ones than back in the day: like, for example how old Soros is? – a hundred plus years old? – how about Kissinger? Same, if not older…. [Copy/Paste other players like Cheney, and Bush Sr, to name a couple…]
We’re all – world-wide – being held ransom by this decrepit old ‘guard’ that should have died years ago, but somehow they’re still alive and they’re still holding up to the reigns of power somehow…
-TL2Q
Saker or Scott: when are you going to do a military update on what is happening in the Donbass???
Yes, what is going on in the Donbass?
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-38794679
bbc is unreliable and part of the Western MSM.
Looks like the wrong sector got involved, and they shot each other, which is very good news. I only have some sympathy for the conscripts who don’t want to be there, but as for the rest, the more who die – and sooner – the better.

Hello “Bro 93”,
Here are some thoughts regarding your comment: /moveable-feast-cafe-2017-01-26/#comment-315963.
Everything what I have written was from my heart. Maybe it sounds like a prayer; maybe one might perceive it as poetry. The source of these words is suffering and the wish to end this suffering.
About the mythological, maybe historical (if there is such) and metaphysical Prometheus:
With “historical” I refer to what was written and what is openly available as “myth” about Prometheus. Yes there is a myth. One can read it as a nice story and that’s it… The interesting question is: is it only a myth or is it very distant, real history, which faded to legend, than further faded to myth?
Because this part is “open source”, I won’t be able to bring you something new from this perspective. I suppose.
What I’m primary interested in is the “metaphysical Prometheus”: a universal principal which is present and active in creation, in man, in humans. In me, in you, in everybody here and of course beyond.
You are Prometheus!
You live his tragedy. Daily. If you’re conscious about it or not, doesn’t matter. It makes a difference, for you and your development, when you are cognizant about it, but the processes connected to your “personal Prometheus” are there, even if you know nothing about it. Than the processes are completely unconscious till you become conscious about these processes, so that from then on, your own free will can make a difference: are you opposed to what Prometheus is “doing” for you or do you welcome it and help the process?
The understanding of “who” or “what” Prometheus is, is very difficult and obstructed. The same with Lucifer. The same with Loki. Maybe these 3 are the same? The same principle? All of these 3 “guys” have to do with fire. And all of them have something to do with men and the creation of men. And then there are some “negative aspects” which are attributed to them, like lies, cheating, temptation, deceiving, tricks etc…
To make one thing clear: I certainly would differentiate between Lucifer on the one hand and devil/Satan on the other, to stay in our Christian context.
You mention Christ in this context: if one thinks about Lucifer, how could we ignore Christ? If one is looking at Loki, how we could ignore Thor? If one looks at Prometheus’ suffering, how one couldn’t be reminded of Christ’s suffering? Also the interest in and love for humans is a link between Christ and Prometheus. I won’t say it is this or that. I just hint, that there are connections and that these things are interconnected.
Esoteric truths (insights, revelations) can hurt the feelings of religious people who still need an exoteric dogma to follow.
I’m from Germany. My ancestors a Slavic (former Yogoslavia). This is my personal “tragedy”: born between capitalism and socialism, between atheism, Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, Islam and Christian Orthodoxy, between the Latin and Cyrillic alphabet, between different ethnicities…
So what is left for me except to hold on to God? ;-)
“The interesting question is: is it only a myth or is it very distant, real history, which faded to legend, than further faded to myth?”
myth and history, a myth tells what has never happened and is allways happening
I appreciate your reply Prometeus and also the counterpoint supplied from the Bavarian Alps by Mundo that I spotted in the last Cafe.
More later. Sometimes I’m away for 1-2 days.
In 1956 we picked up a new Chevrolet station wagon in Athens and drove into Yugoslavia (Americans living in Arabia). It was mountainous and the first snow I ever saw. We were stopped at the border check for passports and so on, at night and it was a problem that the new car had no license plate.
While my 3 sisters and I played in the snow, the border guards made a license plate out of thick cardboard and made a few numbers up and wrote them on the “license plate”. And off we went, north into the mountains in the snowstorm.
In the morning we stopped in a village. Waking up from our beds in the back we saw sunshine and many children’s noses and hands on all the rear windows staring at the strange visitors that we were.
3 months in Europe. Some of the war damaged buildings still stood in Germany.
Dear Rublev,
Thank you for the links, you gave me in your post: /moveable-feast-cafe-2017-01-26/#comment-315959.
You definitely made my day with the “Colour theory according to Goethe”!
I have the whole compendium here at home, commented by Rudolph Steiner, but I avoided so far jumping into it and making myself in depth familiar with it. I should change that! Marvellous!
Only from the watching yesterday it became clear (if one likes to follow Goethe’s arguments), that our understanding of “Darkness” and our condemnation of it, our negative association with it, could have major flaws.
If that is so, the question arises: how could we be successful in our life, when we misunderstand one half of the creation?
I’m submerged in this question for a long time now. You gave me a fresh and deep impulse with your hint. It’s working already in me. I can feel it. I’m really curious to find out, what the outcome would be!
Deja vu.
I seem to remember similar posts during the era of the late, great Kat Kan (RIP).
That was two years ago.
Am I right?
FYI … KatKan went into hospital in July 2015 (OPD) and never came back … we never knew her ‘real’ name … mod-hs
Prometeus, I am not the person you are replying to, but I was very intrigued by your message, as Goethe’s theory of color is a classic in Japan! It is possibly the most widely read book by Goethe in this country.
One writer has said that for Goethe, it is impossible to perceive nature without loving nature. You focus on what you love and gain a habit for it. This is why when you observe a person or object with a still mind, you will notice more about them than if you are trying to use them for your own end. This is also key to the Japanese way of thought.
(In case any other readers want to watch it, here is the video you talk about: https://youtu.be/MmhSXTMTtJM )
Goethe was without doubt a freemason. The freemasonic education – where Darkness is an entity with equal rights before God like Light – helped him definitely a lot to formulate his “Colour Theory”.
One has to think of the black and white chequered Temple floor of the Masons. This black and white chequered floor encounters us very often in music videos, movies and fashion magazine photographs. It symbolizes the play of Light and Darkness.
In common Religion, which is always exoteric and dogmatic, you learn only very little about Darkness. In the scriptures the “normal people” are given behavioural rules: 10 commandments, yama and niyama, etc. You are warned, not to this or do that, not to engage in this, otherwise you will earn punishment. Punishment in the form of suffering. And that is true! This part is very, very important and there is nothing wrong with it.
But is this way (the exoteric one) the only way?
Of course not.
There is the “Left Hand of God”, like there is the “Right Hand of God”. In “Exotericism” everything which deals with the “Left Hand Path” is cursed as Satanic and is feared by ordinary people. I understand that. While the “right one” is endeavoured not to fall, the “left one” seeks consciously to fall. Why that for God’s sake, one might ask? Maybe because your Heart told you so? And when the sincerity of your Heart tells you so, the question remains: will you still listen to an outside authority, which is warning you to stay away from the darkness? Or will you listen to your Heart and jump head on into the Darkness?
Maybe because you begin to understand the “benefit of pain”, the “benefit of suffering”?
Anakin Skywalker for example is an Adept of the “Left Hand Path”:
Out of Love for a woman, he breaks the Yedi law, not to engage in “physical relationship”.
He even conceives children with his beloved wife.
Out of great fear to lose his beloved wife, he then finally enters the “black path”.
Out of free will, he submits to his new dark master.
But Darkness requires from you sacrifices and submission: so Skywalker has to kill and spill blood, especially to spill the blood of innocent (the youngsters).
So he enters his Demonic I: Darth Vader is born.
From now on, he’s empowered by anger and hate.
Anger makes him strong.
Hate makes him merciless.
But very soon he experiences the price of being on the Dark side: anger and hate are a consuming fire. He loses his arms and legs, and the poor rest of him is burned by the fire.
And there he lies, in the dirt, an unrecognizable lump of bleeding meet and still he is furious and with his last strength he shouts at his former master Obi Wan: I hate you!
But the Darkness cares for her children. Not out of selfless Love, like the Light does, but out of selfish Desire.
So Darth Sidious rushes to his new padavan to help him, because he needs him for his further plans. Arms and legs are replaced with robotic prosthesis and the mask does the breathing and replaces the eyes. Darkness always copies the Light, but makes a grotesque caricature out of the “original”. So Darth Vader brings death and devastation to the systems. But in the very end he is the one who flips the victory to the Light: there is still Love in him for his Son, Luke. This Love is stronger than everything else and with his last strength he finishes the Imperator. He fulfilled his destiny. He balanced the struggle between the Light and the Dark side. He took the path on the razors edge and won. He was responsible for million deaths but in the end maybe he saved billions.
Is he good? Or is he bad?
Was he maybe an agent of light? Without even knowing it himself? Was he placed by destiny right next to the Imperator? To be able to “pull the trigger” when the time has come?
Who knows…
By the way: Darth Vader. What name is this? Is it “Dark Vater”? Vater meaning father in German. Maybe. Vader is pronounced Vejda so it sounds like the vedic Veda.
Maybe Dark Veda? Could it be? Interesting!
There a four Vedas: Rig, Sama, Yajur and Atharva.
But there is a fifth Veda, which is not written! A fifth Veda which lies in the Dark: the Dark Veda?
Shiva and his consort Parvati speak about this Veda in their Tantric discourses, but Shiva only mentions it. He doesn’t want to talk about it even to his wife out of fear, some could hear about it.
The only thing which is sure: the fifth Veda is for those Adepts, who have mastered the previous four Vedas. For others this Veda is devastating, so it is kept in secrecy, so not to harm anybody. The fifth Veda is revealed to the Adept by the Divine Mother, when the time has come, when the Adept is properly prepared by the previous four Vedas and when the Adept insists relentless to acquire this knowledge.
One life is not enough to acquire the knowledge. As you said with the Vedas, there are steps, many steps, which have to be done by one person. Accumulating experience is the hard way but the real one. One can learn many things by reading and watching carefully the macro-cosmos around us, but then comes the time when all lessons have to proved, experienced in real life. Once you have entered this path, all hell is unleashed on you, step by step, life after life. You’ll find yourself on the front line, on the battlefield – always spiritually, but also materially. Sometimes you have help, sometimes you don’t, you’re being left alone, with no help whatsoever, only your will to fight till the end or surrender and loose. The destiny (or karma – which is often misinterpreted) makes for you a new path or stage, where you can “play” again. No one is taking your role from you, no one is taking the sufferings from you or the cross, if you wish. That Cross is made just for You alone, it fits your character and soul, that is Your destiny. If you take a more severe look, our soul’s life is a continuous struggle, it can be also viewed as a continuous state of war. To understand all this and most importantly, the causes, are leading us to accumulation of knowledge by experience in a bitter fight with the unknown. I have a deep sadness in my soul, and small particle of hope. The hope, that when my time is over, on the other side I will know much more and, above all, I will have my rest with my loved ones.
Tell it no one but the wise,
The crowd will only jeer:
The living thing I praise,
That longs for death by fire.
Cooling, in those nights of love,
Conceiving as you were conceived,
A strange emotion fills you
While the quiet candle gleams.
You’re no longer in the grasp
Of shadows, darkening,
A new desire lifts you up
On to a higher mating.
No distances can weigh you down,
Enchanted you come flying,
And greedy for the light, at last,
A moth, you burn in dying.
And as long as you lack this
True word: Die and Become!
You’ll be but a dismal guest
In Earth’s darkened room.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Thanks kinterra for your poetic approach with Goethe’s poem. And also with Faust’s example below, a very good and classic metaphoric description of man’s epic fight with his weakness between the darkness and light.

JJ, communication with familiar spirits is not biblical. King Saul turned to them only ofter God quit talking to him…
As far as I know, biblical revelations & visions did no switch off the minds of e.g. Daniel, John, Ezekhiel etc in some kind of trance.
According to 1 Cor. 14:32
“And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.”
You cannot have that while being in a trance mode…
From above web page:
“In 1921, a Heavenly Messenger made himself known through the mediumship of Miss Winifred Moyes. It was soon realised that he was able to give a teaching of great spiritual wisdom and was inspired by the Love of the Christ.
The earthly name of this Messenger was not disclosed, but he described himself as a “humble servant of the Christ”. He chose to use the name ‘Zodiac’ in order to lift our thoughts from the earth to the heavens.
His Christ-inspired teachings were delivered through Winifred Moyes in a trance state to ensure that her physical mind did not impede the purity of the messages.”
The “Dark Side of the Force” you are talking about reminds me of Blake’s Orc. Orc is simply the raw power of mankind — we have unlimited ability to change the world. But if we lust after this power it take us in unexpected and destructive directions.
Maybe this is why we focus on light and exclude darkness… we need sacred wisdom from God to guide our use of our own power. I think Blake was foolish to forget this, but I must read Goethe’s Faust to see if he understood it.
Faust was written over a long period which spanned much of Goethe’s life. Steiner referred to Faust as the ‘modern man’. Faust’s struggle with the devil- Mephistopheles- is the story of the modern human being. This is a very short summary.
Faust is searching for knowledge. He is restless and anxious to know the meaning of life. The Devil Mephistopheles wants to tempt Faust with his power. God gives Mephistopheles permission to tempt Faust. God calls Faust his faithful servant, and has complete faith that Faust will choose the the good in the end. Mephistopheles strikes a bargain with Faust- if Mephistopheles can create a condition in which Faust will be eternally content, Faust will relinquish his soul to Mephistopheles.
The saga is long and Mephistopheles is able to satisfy every desire Faust can conjure, but the satisfaction is only temporary. Faust scales the depths and heights of human experience including entering entering supersensible realms. Along the way Faust both suffers and realizes how his actions have caused great suffering in others. His conscience matures throughout his various encounters. Faust becomes fed up with all his fantastic exploits and makes a bold statement: “I just want to be a human being among other human beings.” He decides to use all his resources to create a better life for humanity. At his death, Faust is weighted by all his misdeeds. Mephistopheles approaches him ready to snatch his up soul. Faust cries out for help and the angels take him instead. There is a fantastic last verse which conveys that whoever still strives can be rescued by the angels, for the Divine Feminine leads us ever upward.”
My apologies to Goethe for butchering his master piece with such a rudimentary rendition.

Welcome to the Weimar Republic redux.
British Medical Association on board the Orwellian train to ‘disappear’ women with a ban on the word ‘mother’: ‘expectant mother ‘ be replaced with ‘pregnant people’:
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/01/29/doctors-told-term-mothers-offends-trans/
Any doubts the ‘transgender’ cult is a front to eliminate the natural rights of women is thoroughly dispelled.
Reprogenics is well underway.
@ Eimar:
“British Medical Association on board the Orwellian train to ‘disappear’ women with a ban on the word ‘mother’: ‘expectant mother ‘ be replaced with ‘pregnant people’ [..]”
Yeah, I heard about that…
Feminist get a bad rep, here and well… everywhere!
But just like with the fake left, you also have fake faminists, you know… the kind that rally for no reason, wearing “pussyhats” … that kind! Yet, because they’re so visible and get so much press coverage, people go on to assume they are “true” feminists.
Well, they’re not! :/
The “true” feminists have been speaking out against the transsexual agenda for years now, they have several points to make against it, but one of their main ones is the one you just mentioned: to banish women as a gender, as a class of people.
For saying that, true feminists have been banned from University lectures, feminist rallies/festivals (can you believe that?), fired from their news paper columns [etc].
What people don’t understand is that there’s a co-relation between the banishment of the working-class as a class of people [whether they’re white, black or brown] and the disappearing of true feminist within the feminist movement itself.
In both cases their tactics are essentially the same: usurp the movement, then ban, ostracize dissenters, control the narrative, identify a fringe group as an uber-oppressed one, a group that can’t be challenged by anyone else at all because of their so-called in-born / historical disadvantages… And bingo! That’s how you end up with a fake left, that’s how you end up with fake – pussyhat – “feminists.”
Sounds familiar? Yeah, of course it does, because… duh! It does!
Like… feeling sorry for the poor old persecuted Jews. What?!?! You disagree with that? How dare you! Don’t you know their people been through the Holocaust?!? You Hitler! You Nazi! (< and we’re seeing that on the media on a daily basis: by calling Putin Hitler, by calling Trump Hitler, by calling the working class “a basket of deplorables,” by calling Brexiters, “Little Englanders” and that’s when they don’t call them racists…)
^ Same tactics are applied to grass-roots / popular ‘movements’ all over that genuinely threaten the Status-Quo.

Bro 93, regarding your comment about Lyndon LaRouche:
/moveable-feast-cafe-2017-01-26/#comment-316122
LaRouche and his work gave me food for thought for many, many years. If one was raised in a normal (meaning indoctrinated, brainwashed) school and university environment, than his work can add some new and fresh life to our bored synapses. Definitely!
I have his concepts and teachings in my mind and they often help me to differentiate my reality perception more than without his concepts. Forever he will have a place in my heart as one of my teachers. But when I learned everything what he has to offer, I still was unsatisfied. There still remained questions. He wasn’t able or he was unwilling to answer then. So I moved on. To different places.
He is unable or unwilling to lift the veil of his source.
The centre of his ideology is “human creativity”. For over 40 years he is advocating classical culture, classical education to stimulate creativity in humans. But he never ever disclosed one iota about the how this is done. I have my ideas on this “how”, but since he won’t reveal it openly, at this point he’s of no use anymore. At this point you have to believe him. He uses this then as a bait to follow him. At his point I’m out of the game…
I want to know.
If you are anyway interested in further discussion about LaRouche and his concepts, feel free to address it. It would be a pleasure!
Prometeus, I just spotted this post at nearly midnight.
I do have quite a lot to say on the subject, always prefaced by the admission that there may be persons reading who know much more than me on the subject, and I invite them to take over, if they can show that.
I met the ICLC or International Caucus of Labor Committees in 1978 and have kept up with most of their campaigns, positions, etc ever since.
I am prepared to answer your question when better rested, but for right now let me state that I got most of my satisfaction to your question very early on when I read a Fusion Magazine article (science journal of the ICLC) article by “Lyn” entitled “Poetry Must Begin to Supercede Mathematics in Physics”.
If you read it before and found it incomprehensible,we can discuss after I read it again for the first time in nearly 40 years, in review.
If you never read it,here it is:
http://wlym.com/archive/fusion/fusion/19781010-fusion.pdf The article begins on Page 11.
I hope a member or two of the Vineyard of the Saker Deadly Poet’s Society might be intrigued by the title and join in. Schuss! Guten nacht, spakoine noche, etc.
Prometeus, I must work Wednesday and get some sleep now. But here is more to chew on, and YOU are in the title of the article. Well, with an H added:
http://www.schillerinstitute.org/fid_97-01/001_LaR_Prometheus.html
I will check in again Thursday. Tomorrow will be a long day.
Thank you Bro 93!
I’m going into it and look forward to stay in touch.
No hurry. It’s absolutely OK, if we communicate from one cafe to another or the next or…
I anyway check everything here. Always.
Thanx also a lot to ioan, J.L.Seagull, kinterra, mundanomaniac and others, who share their thoughts and who enrich us with their quality of mind and with their unique perspective.
Take care everybody and prepare for the Storm.
Another night, haunted by scary images, for me. Not corporate raiders this time, just The Glorious One (to quote Anon from previous café) from Russia and his equally glorious counterpart from the USA, engaged in a lengthy conversation. Deal makers, coming to some agreement.
I’m grateful for no nuclear war.
Remember in Syria, how Israel/US eliminated several key members of Hezbollah, and some from Iran too, and Russia turned a blind eye to it? The Saker shared in one of his articles that he hated this, but could understand the political dynamics behind it.
So Trump and Putin are negotiating, and Trump needs to grab hold of some greatness, ASAP. So… I’d expect Canada, Cuba and Mexico to be prime targets for some ‘grab and go’ looting, while the superpowers tweak the world order.
If the deal’s been agreed on by Russia and the US, then our measly non-super-powerful national governments will probably not be able to do anything about it.
We’ll have to lose – well, we the people, the most defenceless, will have to take a loss.
What to do. The best I could come up with, is to do as the Russians have done/are doing:
1) take the hit, accept the loss
2) carefully document everything
3) seek reparations
Putin and Xi are determined to bring about change to the UN, to re-establish rule by international law, right? So that creates an opening for addressing some of the wrongs which are likely about that be committed.
So — document, document, document. Distribute documents to all levels of our nation’s government, and I think, someone else should keep a collection for future reparation-pursuing purposes. In Canada, I thought maybe Chossudovsky’s team at Global Research, or Christopher Black, international human rights lawyer (I think) in Toronto?
If anyone faces criminal (as in, life-threatening) actions, I think it should be reported to the Canadian authorities, and also to the FBI and FSB in the glorious realms of superpowerdom.
For what may be going on in the Ukraine, see the discussion:
https://www.rt.com/shows/crosstalk/375558-russia-us-phone-call/
especially @ 10: 47 (Mercouris’s assessment)
I read his article: ‘The discussion also touched upon the main aspects of the Ukrainian crisis. The sides agreed to build up partner cooperation in these and other areas.’ Basically he’s interpreted that as being something positive on which Putin can believe that Trump sees things differently to obummer/biden, and is a man of his word.
In the meantime, the mad dogs are attacking, trying – but failing – to take advantage of the change of Government in Washington before they get warned off by Trump. I believe – can anyone confirm? – that nobody from kiev was invited to Trump’s inauguration, visas refused?
Poroshenko called an emergency Minsk today
KIEV, January 31. /TASS/. Ukrainian President Pyotr Poroshenko has given instructions to convene an emergency session of the Contact Group for the settlement in eastern Ukraine over a deteriorating situation around Avdeyevka, a settlement in Donbass, deputy head of the president’s administration Konstantin Yeliseyev said on Monday.

I wonder if these provocations are happening in the wake of anti-Trump rhetoric in US.
“Ukrainian forces say the fresh outbreak of fighting began when rebels launched an attack on Avdiivka, a flashpoint town held by the army that borders land controlled by the separatists”
Given the sources and the MI6 echo chamber BBC, one can safely assume it was a Kiev junta/USA assault. Where’s Trump in all this?
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-38794679
Where’s Trump? Quite simply buried under work and trying to handle all the information he’s getting not to mention dealing with all those who are trying to influence him.
Like Putin’s doing for Russians, he’s putting Americans first.
Eventually he will get around to dealing with it, but in his talk to Putin, he seems to be giving positive support for Putin’s viewpoint.
Of course, it’s hard to stop mad dogs, especially when it involves the wrong sector, they won’t listen, so let them kill each other – wrong sector against ukrop with maybe some mercenaries thrown into the mix.
Any news source which labels the Donbass defenders as ‘rebels’ needs to be flushed down the toilet – it has zero credibility.
Can be he’s measuring up for a new suit, each of which costs $10,000, requiring tailors highly skilled in the execution of the masking of excess or considered undesirable body mass. So I have been assured anyway. Trump apparently weighs in at 24 stone and the suit must hang with superlative effect assuring him the confidence of unquestioned success in the ‘battle of the bulge’.
In this morning’s news :
“Since Trump’s election, Orwell’s novel [1984] has jumped to number one on Amazon’s list of best sellers. Number one. Its publisher, Penguin, has ordered a new print run of 75,000 to keep up with the demand. 47,000 copies have been sold since Trump won the election.
That is again a sign on how deep people are confused. The Orwellian time has begun after 1989 and since then, is expanding as cancer. Interesting how different experiences people have. But who is to blame if the large majority is still dreaming their life, being suddenly woken up by Trump’s coming in the white house ? and they see Orwell’s novel as for now. What a terrible experience they must have, like herd without a well.
This can only be a good thing. It is bound to wake some people to the real truth.

check out the book “the road to ruin”..??????? .not sure about it at all though…….have not read it
“The bestselling author of The Death of Money and Currency Wars reveals the global elites’ dark effort to hide a coming catastrophe from investors in The Road to Ruin, now a National Bestseller.
A drumbeat is sounding among the global elites. The signs of a worldwide financial meltdown are unmistakable. This time, the elites have an audacious plan to protect themselves from the fallout: hoarding cash now and locking down the global financial system when a crisis hits.
Since 2014, international monetary agencies have been issuing warnings to a small group of finance ministers, banks, and private equity funds: the U.S. government’s cowardly choices not to prosecute J.P. Morgan and its ilk, and to bloat the economy with a $4 trillion injection of easy credit, are driving us headlong toward a cliff. “
Can anybody substantiate this claim about what is happeneing to health care in Ukraine?:

This is also the type of information I would like Saker/Scott to comment on because I can’t read the language; on google etc still leaves a lot to be desired regarding their translation, and that’s apart from the credibility part.
The Conclusion
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element.
It is my personal approach that creates the climate.
It is my daily mood that makes the weather.
I possess tremendous power to make a life miserable or joyous.
I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.
I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal.
In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized.
If we treat people as they are, we make them worse.
If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming.
Whoops the Goethe quote was meant to relate to the discussion above.

Superb–and highly unsettling–interview with Douglas Valentine, author of the “The CIA As Organized Crime.”

Mexico Accuses Israel of ‘Aggression’ After Netanyahu’s Wall Tweet
https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/201701311050175698-mexico-israel-netanyahu-twitter/
“The prime minister asked “who even mentioned Mexico?” and then asserted that it was a left-wing smear campaign.
“It doesn’t surprise me. The media is left-wing, mobilized on a Bolshevik hunt [against me], [dedicated to] brainwashing, and character assassination against me and my family,” said Netanyahu, referring to two ongoing investigations in Israel regarding financial foul-play on the part of the Israeli leader.”
Posting this mainly for the netanyahoo quotation about the “evul leftists”. Though if Mexico distances itself from israel, that obviously can only be a good thing.
That labeling of the media as leftwing is bog standard among the zionazi far right propaganda wing of the zio-gay media (conservative talk radio, TV pundits and print media, rush limbaugh being a typical example of the toxic sludge). That quote from netanyahoo shows where these yahoos get their marching orders from: israel. These zionazis, like other nazis, label any view to the left of that vomited by [gay] edgar hoover as leftwing, communist, or socialist.
I can’t deny that Alex Jpnes has done a service against “globalists” and MSM but sometimes I wonder what;s up with his “Chinese Communists” are taking over Hollywood and they want to take over America” rants.
His election night coverage was fun and that was the only 4-5 hours I watched Infowars before in my life, somewhat by web surfing accident and because I saw in Roger Stone’s calm demeanor some hope that Alex wouldn’t burst his jugular from high blood pressure..
Since then I’ve heard Jones won’t ever,ever say anything negative about Israel, and that does make me a bit uneasy about the superficiality and ignorance of some of the “patriotic” and “anti-leftist” alt media.
Not that there’s much true “left” left of the American Left. It’s disappointing that neither left nor right, for the most part, will criticize Nuttyahoo or other zionist gangsters like him.
B93
“Since then I’ve heard Jones won’t ever,ever say anything negative about Israel”
I remember people commenting on that 8-10 years ago. I puts what the rest of what he rants about in the proper perspective.
For analysis of israeli and zionist influence, I’ve found James Petra’s to be very informative.
http://petras.lahaine.org/
Alex Jones has got credentials for the white house and probably there are others to follow. The press-conference room has to be expanded – also according to Trump.

wonder what is happening to Transnystria-forecasted? to be next eu-Russia flashpoint…..tried to check it out but cannot see much……….
typo–sell 200,000 tons to Russia
Inspired by JJ’s RSS post on the insidious depopulation of Ukraine through diminishing the supply of life/saving drugs, and ratcheting up their cost, I came across this article (from November, 2016):
http://www.globalresearch.ca/depopulation-and-social-explosion-mass-exodus-from-ukraine-to-russia-80000-people-a-week/5555293
This seems to tie into the ‘eretz Isrsel’ project in the MENA, as I have heard Poroshenko offering to take ‘refugees’ from Syria – probably as bait to inveigle his way into the EU’s good books.
Ukraine as a giant ‘safe zone’?
It could also be part of NATO strategy to have a supply of jihadists embedded in the ‘refugee’ population, right on Russia’s doorstep, now that Syria is not working out to plan.
It would also be of a piece with reports at least a year ago, of fascist battalion leaders inviting ISIS to join them against the Donbass ( strongly associated with Russian Orthodox Christianity).
Ukrainians seeking to establish themselves in Russia need to be assimilated, and to do some form of national service as a condition of citizenship.
If the exodus is a large as the article claims, and not seasonal/transient, then it is possible that, like the sanctions, a negative could evolve into a positive for Russia.
Massive zionazi provocations in the Ukraine, timed coincidentally right after Saturday’s Putin-trump/pence phone discussion.
Ukrainian paramilitary supported by army attacked rebels in East – Peskov, citing Kremlin data
https://www.rt.com/news/375755-donbass-kiev-escalation-peskov/
“[The paramilitary] tried to attack the territory controlled by the [self-proclaimed] republics of Donbass,” he told journalists. “Those units crossed the disengagement line with artillery fire support from the Ukrainian Army. The rebel militia was forced to fight back near the town of Avdeevka and take back the seized land.”
Peskov said that while the so-called “volunteer battalions” are not fully controlled by the government in Kiev, the support provided by regular Ukrainian troops indicates that Ukraine was willing to undermine the truce with the rebels under the Minsk agreement.”
Sounds like the zionazis ordered their orc quislings to attack in a desperate bid to provoke a Novorussian response their western regime quislings and zio-gay media can use against Russia. Either this means trump is with the neocons in the Ukraine, and this is part of a trump sanctioned escalation, or the zionazis got wind that trump plans to reduce american backing and are doing this to try and force an escalation before trump pulls the plug on them.
For a little more insight on what’s happening behind the scenes in the gone-completely-insane continent of North America:
News release from Govt of Canada, Mon. Jan. 30th —
“The Honourable Jim Carr, Canada’s Minister of Natural Resources, is travelling to Mexico from January 31 to February 3, 2017 to reaffirm Canada and Mexico’s strong North American partnership and identify areas for further cooperation, including sustainable mineral resource development, energy security and clean energy.”
“The Minister is accompanied by one of the largest delegations ever of Canada’s mining, oil and gas, and clean technology sectors, which is poised to advance business relationships between our two countries and assist Mexico in achieving its goals with respect to energy reform and socially responsible mineral development. For the first time, Indigenous representatives will be part of the NRCan delegation.”
I saw this release, “Minister Carr to Travel to Mexico”, yesterday and breezed right past it, assuming nothing of significance was reported in it.

Remember Music, the 3rd element of the Quadrivium, the instrument with which to examine closer the Trivium??
Today is the birthday of Franz Schubert composer of this song “An Die Musik”:
https://youtu.be/H9TlAOKCmaQ
By Franz von Schober (1796-1882)
Du holde Kunst, in wieviel grauen Stunden,
Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt,
Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb entzunden,
Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt!
Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf’ entflossen,
Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir
Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen,
Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür!
TRANSLATION
On Music
You, noble Art, in how many grey hours,
When life’s mad tumult wraps around me,
Have you kindled my heart to warm love,
Have you transported me into a better world,
Transported into a better world!
Often has a sigh flowing out from your harp,
A sweet, divine harmony from you
Unlocked to me the heaven of better times,
You, noble Art, I thank you for it!!
You, noble Art, I thank you!

Mundo, this is what we call “lobbing a big fat strike right over the heart of the plate”. You may now knock it out of the celestial/astrological “park”.
All this is in preparation for my last Schubert dedication of this birth-night of his, here in California. Last but not least. After I cook dinner!
“Mundo, this is what we call “lobbing a big fat strike right over the heart of the plate”. You may now knock it out of the celestial/astrological “park”.”
Sorry, too much slang for me to comprehend, give a hint?
Last Schubert song:
https://youtu.be/IY-j9-DjVqk
Du Bist Die Ruh
You are the calm,
The restful peace:
You are my longing and
what makes it cease.
With passion and pain
To you I give
My eye and heart
Are yours to live.
Enter here and close
Quietly behind you
the gates of your
Gentle embrace.
All other grief
You dispel from my breast:
My heart swells
With the love of you.
Your brightness alone
Lights the canopy of my eyes
Oh, fill it fully!
–Friedrich Rückert, Du bist die Ruh (1822)
A poem to ennoble an exalted union of beings enchanted and enlivened in the highest sense in hopes that it will be recognized by the most fervent believer(s) in the fulfillment of One becoming more than two.
Thanks for the Schubert songs, they are indeed beautiful. A reminiscence of the world we once had. Anyway, his music, together with other great classics of real music, is there to be forever. What we have now, is a world of shadows even in the art of music, not to call the realities in the every days events. A sick world for a sick humanity, which is totally disoriented in every sense. Sometimes I’m getting tired of trying to provide some light in the oceans of lies.
Even more so, when I find myself many times disoriented and in search for the Light.
‘Politically Incorrect’, the 4chan forum which previously featured FBIAnon, was the source for revelations about the Clinton Foundation and the alleged divide in the intel services.
It was also the source for the ‘golden showers’ insertion into the Christopher Steele ‘dossier’ on Trump.
Now comes this claim by another Anon. He (maybe she) claims his ‘job’ was to use back door funds via shell companies to set up deals with opposition groups in foreign countries – including warlords – to overthrow governments.
He says Mattis wants to put an end to this and that the opposition to Trump is the ‘swamp’ realizing it won’t be business as usual:

Ps some dispute from posters who claim Mattis is a neocon, versus those who say he is not….
For those who haven’t heard, there was a mass shooting at a mosque in Quebec, Canada on Sunday night. The suspect is a white, male, nationalist, pro-Trump, pro-Le Pen.
So – this article sheds some light on what Uncle George and his world-dominating cohorts are working on at present. Coming to country near you, it’s violent ethnic-nationalism.
“Québec’s ugly ethnic-nationalism”
http://www.cbc.ca/beta/news/opinion/ethnic-nationalism-quebec-1.3960340
Yeah, from now on, the narrative is : “it was Trump”
I agree, ioan. This time, though, after Trump announced the travel ban, Trudeau publicly sort of opposed it (he represented those Canadians who were blocked from traveling, I think?), then this shooting happens. Trump calls to ask if he can give any help.
To me, Trump’s call came across as intimidation, just because of the sequence of everything (and Trudeau is French-Canadian, too, right? Shooting takes place in Quebec City?) Is someone sending a message here? Is it from the new administration or from the Israeli government? The previous administration seemed to send several such messages. Is this just more of the same? I don’t know.
An interesting follow up, on Alexandre Bissonette, the suspected shooter, in this article. (http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-new-world-order-hits-quebec-city-islamophobia-an-instrument-of-americas-military-agenda/5572143)
“It is said Bissonnette ” liked” Donald Trump and Marie Le Pen because that is what his Facebook page said before it was removed. … He also liked Katie Perry, the Israel Defence Forces, Christopher Hitchens, Pope John Paul II, HG Wells, Tom Hanks, and many more.”
“Alexandre Bissonnette liked the military, liked weapons and learned how to handle them in army cadets.”
Is that where he learned to “like” the Israel Defence Forces, too?
One more follow up — from Dmitry Babich, Jan. 26th, “France says No to Russophobia”
https://sputniknews.com/columnists/201701261050031251-france-says-no-to-russophobia/
Article leads with “George Soros’s worst nightmare is becoming a reality in a key European country – France.”
And maybe Soros replies, “then let then eat violent ethnic-nationalism”

http://theduran.com/here-is-a-chart-predicting-which-countries-will-have-a-coups-or-regime-change-in-2017/
Given that in neocon-speak, black is white, peace means war, etc etc, I wonder if we should view this map differently.
Perhaps those in the ‘least likely’ bracket, such as Australia, Canada, European nations, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, etc, are the true targets. And the WaPo is issuing a veiled threat.
The USS Port Royal, an Aegis Ticonderoga class cruiser, ran aground on a coral reef just offshore of Honolulu International Airport on Feb. 5, 2009. The ship was coming out of an extended repair period which had begun in Sep 2008. Despite the five months or so undergoing repairs in the shipyard, the vessel left with significant equipment malfunctions still unfixed.
The Honolulu Advertiser obtained the Navy’s accident report and published the following information related to damage and causes:
• The Commanding Officer had had only 15 hours sleep in the previous three days and had not been at sea in the previous five years.
• The fathometer was broken and non-functional.
• Both radar repeaters on the bridge were broken.
• The Global Positioning System navigation gear was broken and the crew had switched to an inertial navigation system, leading crew members to think they were 1.5 miles from where they actually were.
• Watch-standers ignored alarms from the ship’s navigation gear concerning position discrepancies.
• The quartermaster of the watch didn’t know how to take navigational fixes near the shore.
• Ship lookouts weren’t on watch; they were working as food service attendants due to a manpower shortage.

for the Donbass feed: escalation in the provocation from Kiev
https://www.rt.com/news/375983-russia-ukraine-warplane-incident/
I’m seeing reports and videos of the rioting taking place in the US against Trump. And that brings me to some unanswered questions.
1. Why are the police not stopping these riots. Arresting the rioters and charging the violent ones, while taking everyone’s name involved.Then combing through the records. And if any of them are government employee’s,fire them. If they get any type of government aid,cut it off. Examples that violent protests won’t be permitted need to be make.
2.There are student riots happening. If the rioters are students at government funded schools. Or get government grants. Expel them,and cut of the grants. If the university employee’s are helping in the rioting fire them as well. Examples that hit at the pocket book need to be made to stop this before it becomes larger. As long as people think there is no “price to be paid” for rioting it will continue. Let them know the price will be heavy, and probably 90% will abandon the rioting.
Check the dates of those — I don’t see new stories about it, on google search. Protests, maybe, but not riots?
But how can we trust news reports, and how much of this is hyped up?
There was one a day ago where a crowd of “protesters” (rioters) invaded an airport (aren’t airports today supposed to be heavily protected with security?) an beat a man unconscious.I didn’t see mass numbers of police (who were needed) doing anything to arrest them. And today at USC in California students started a riot:
https://www.rt.com/usa/376001-milo-yiannopoulos-berkeley-riot-protest/
Berkley is a strange place — and would you believe John Yoo is a law professor there.
OK — there are riots going on, and they should be dealt with by police. The country is getting more divided by the day, and I suppose there are forces trying to do that (color revolution stuff).
This is not good…
The demonstrations on airports were organised by a organisation named Thinkprogress, which is funded by the Centre of American Progress which is funded by of course Soros, Ford Foudation etc.
The president of the CAP worded for he Obama and Clinton administrations and for Hillary Clinton’s campaigns. The first president and CEO was John Podesta.

A Vatican-Democratic Party Alliance? (Catholics Ask Trump Administration to Investigate)
(exerpt):
“Reversing recent collectivist trends will, by necessity, require a reversal of many of the actions taken by the previous administration. Among those actions we believe that there is one that remains cloaked in secrecy. Specifically, we have reason to believe that a Vatican “regime change” was engineered by the Obama administration.
We were alarmed to discover that, during the third year of the first term of the Obama administration your previous opponent, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and other government officials with whom she associated proposed a Catholic “revolution” in which the final demise of what was left of the Catholic Church in America would be realized.[1] Approximately a year after this e-mail discussion, which was never intended to be made public, we find that Pope Benedict XVI abdicated under highly unusual circumstances and was replaced by a pope whose apparent mission is to provide a spiritual component to the radical ideological agenda of the international left. [2] The Pontificate of Pope Francis has subsequently called into question its own legitimacy on a multitude of occasions. [3]”
