Iran is in the crosshairs of the Empire.
Iran is on the right side of history.
Now we wait to see which are the honourable countries that will defy the empire and stand with Iran.
For starters, Russia and China must immediately stop their pussyfooting and accept Iran as a full member of the SCO.
Also Russia must speed up its delivery of fighter jets to Iran.
Again, I say, we wait to see who will stand with Iran.

This is a song, written and released by a Canadian Band, in 1969. Ths song has recently been played a lot on UK Radio Stations – like Planet Rock & Virgin Radio. They play it more than they play the Beatles, who I also liked in 1969…
Now if The Canadians can get the Americans in 1969, how come some of the rest of the world still “likes” them?
Read the words – the lyrics to American Woman. The Americans are too stupid to understand them.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Woman
Extract
“American Woman, stay away from me
American Woman, mama let me be
Don’t come a hangin’ around my door
I don’t wanna see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin’ old with you
Now Woman, I said stay away
American Woman, listen what I say-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
American Woman, get away from me
American Woman, mama let me be
Don’t come a knockin’ around my door
Don’t wanna see your shadow no more
Coloured lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else’s eyes
Now Woman, I said get away
American Woman, listen what I say-ay-ay-ay
American Woman, said get away
American Woman, listen what I say
Don’t come a hangin’ around my door
Don’t wanna see your face no more
I don’t need your war machines
I don’t need your ghetto scenes
Coloured lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else’s eyes
Now Woman, get away from me
American Woman, mama let me be”
I am English. Do not confuse me with Americans.

Back when the song came out, many Americans understood it very well, which made it a hit. A lot of music addressed social decay then, openly. That was killed off by israel’s minions in media and the Jewish mafia (synonymous in the usa, btw), and the ubiquitous native fascist element gradually during the 1970s, and finalized during the 1980s. Now the pindo music scene reinforces the social decay.
Ronald Reagan had a hand in it as well, as he removed the old democracy-based rules that said one person or corporation could only own a handful of radio stations. Before Reagan, there were many who owned radio stations and a lot of points of view were represented. A while after Reagan, there was Clear Channel. And when Clear Channel owns most the radio stations, is it a surprise that the recording studios aim their content at what Clear Channel wants to play?
Was that Ronald Reagan? I thought it was the Telecommunications Act of 1996, under Clinton.
The Japanese don’t know this at all. That’s the size of the language barrier for you. I’ve had a half a mind to teach it to them as my favorite hate song, the irony being it is about me, but I think it would actually shock them and that the social message would be lost on them. America never drifted off the map of reality anywhere near as far as Japan. They never hear bad news about what America does abroad, and since they cooperated quite well after WWII, they’ve benefited from a peaceful existence, letting the American soldiers stationed on its soil do the heavy lifting. The most enlightened among them are aware of the bad things Japan has done, but they still think America is a benign force, keeping the world peaceful.
Reality, when it comes around, will be quite a harsh shock to them. As group oriented as they are, they are great followers, but they will need someone to coach them every step of the way. A lot of room there for misuse.
I’m not sure how we got from the lyrics of “American Woman” to Japan, but I wish to disagree with this assessment.
Perhaps you simply haven’t met them or they didn’t hold you personally accountable (which is only fair), but there are plenty of Japanese who do not see the US as “a benign force” in the world. There was a period when the US had a more favorable reputation among Japanese, but only for part of society and that has waned considerably in the present.
It is certainly true that the domestic media provides a highly sanitized view of the US, but many Japanese know well that the USAF firebombed civilians in WWII, burned their sixty largest cities into the ground (only Kyoto was spared) and nuked two of them. Every elementary school student learns about the Hiroshima attack and many of them even take a field trip there. If you speak with Japanese about this, you will quickly discover that many of them don’t believe the bomb was necessary and that it wasn’t what really ended the war.
This, because many Japanese know what the B-29s did to their country, they know their postwar govt lied to them and allowed the US to bring nuclear weapons into the archipelago, they know that the US similarly used napalm against civilians in Vietnam, and for these reasons many Japanese resisted the stationing of the B-52s in Japan, indeed the entire American military presence in Okinawa.
During the late 1950s and through the 1960s, and especially after the US helped to rehabilitate Kishi Nobusuke and get him elected as Prime Minister (the CIA played a role in this, of course) — Kishi had been one of the Class A war criminals in Tojo’s war cabinet —, hundreds of thousands of Japanese protested against the US-Japan Security and eventually marched on the Diet building in Tokyo. The protests turned into riots, widely considered among the worst of the past century in Japan.
https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/安保闘争#/media/File:1960_Protests_against_the_United_States-Japan_Security_Treaty_07.jpg
(Kishi Nobusuke, btw, is the maternal grandfather of current PM Shinzō Abe.)
The rioting reached a crisis point in 1960, when Eisenhower’s Press Secy. James Hagerty arrived at Haneda Airport and was surrounded by an angry mob en route to Tokyo. Things got out of control and he had to be rescued by the Marines via helicopter:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/95/Hagerty_Incident_01.jpg
Eisenhower’s visit to Japan was cancelled, but the LDP represented by Kishi used the police to throw the opposition out of the Diet and renew the US-Japan Security Treaty by force. For this, PM Kishi had to resign and many older Japanese consider him “unforgivable”.
Anti-govt and Anti-US military protests continued through the 1960s and into the 1970s. These events are not widely known outside of Japan, though there is considerable documentary evidence. If you review the films, especially (see, for example, the documentary prologue to Wakamatu Koji’s United Red Army), some of the rioting makes the protests at Kent State or May ’68 in France look tame by comparison.
So, while it may not be readily apparent from the outward behavior of most Japanese, memories and discontent simmer beneath the surface. Even as you read this now, many are actively protesting the US military presence in Okinawa.
You’re right. I’ve been in Japan 33 years and have never met anyone that claimed to have a negative view of the United States. In my case, there is a good chance they were just being polite, but my Japanese husband has had the same experience as I. I hang out with both right and left wingers. The right wingers within Shinto do criticize America in a historical context, but not in the current one. They express a stronger affiliation with the west than with Asia. I do not personally know any members of the fringe groups who drive around in buses with loudspeakers (not where I live, but I cannot imagine them having stopped that in Tokyo). The last I heard, their hate was being directed against Russia over the territorial dispute, and also against Korea (both North and South) and China.
As far as I can tell, the radical left had simply stopped existing by the time I arrived. There were a number of reasons for that, being discredited through association with North Korea was one, but the biggest reason was the good economic times under American capitalism, which really took the wind out of their sails. I know a number of communists, but their focus is on domestic issues.
Ninety-nine percent of the people I interact with have no interest whatsoever in international politics. The ones who do all think America is benign and to try to tell them otherwise is pointless. Within the dominant narratives in Japanese society, you look like an ogre (to the left) or a fool (to the right) for criticizing the US. The protests in Okinawa are over local issues–rapes and aircraft falling out of the sky–and have no connection that I have heard of with America’s behavior elsewhere.
The one possible exception I am aware of is a faction within the national broadcasting company NHK who air documentaries indirectly unfavorable toward America late at night. In other words, they do break from the western MSM viewpoint, and I am also aware of a more favorable portrayal of Russia in recent years in general.
Acacia, you are talking about anger over historical injustices toward Japan, which is real but fading. The Okinawan bases are a current injustice, but local, and the view elsewhere in Japan is that China is such a threat they wish the Okinawans would shut up and accept it as the price of security. I lived near an air base in Tokyo for a while. There were no protests, and it was easy to enter the base.
Japan is not as insular as before Admiral Perry, but they are by far the most insular modern society I know of, and their relationship with America is working out quite well from their point of view.

Kent, Smokin’ !!!!!
“Leroy Buchanan was born in Ozark, Arkansas, and was raised there and in Pixley, California, a farming area near Bakersfield. Buchanan has influenced many guitarists, including Gary Moore, Danny Gatton, Arlen Roth, Jeff Beck, Jerry Garcia, Jim Campilongo, and Steve Kimock; Beck dedicated his version of “Cause We’ve Ended As Lovers” from Blow by Blow to him. His work is said to “stretch the limits of the electric guitar,” and he is praised for “his subtlety of tone and the breadth of his knowledge, from the blackest of blues to moaning R&B and clean, concise, bone-deep rock ‘n’ roll.”
I have never seen Jeff Beck either, but was told by a musician yesterday, that he’s got a gig in Chelsea. I didn’t ask if he was playing with him, but it wouldn’t surprise me. I used to work for 13 years, just down The Kings Road in Fulham, but we are away camping at a Rock Festival – the same dates in June.

Kent, I heard of him. When I clicked the first link, I knew the second would be “Hey Joe”. Didn’t know he had been murdered in prison, though. Heard his music first on a local radio station, KSAN, in the first half of the 70s, back before the station changed over to fm hits, and then a couple of years later to country when their listenership dried up.
Thanks, Kent. Simply awesome – post more anytime you like. Just love the blues – esp. when played by someone of this calibre.

saker , Assuming there will be war in the Middle East, assuming china and Russia will inevitably support each other and Iran, assuming that Israel and the US will use nukes, what are the capabilities of the s300 and the like in relation to IBM ? What are some of the potential outcomes of this ?
I once played an old board game that tried to simulate a military conflict in Europe in the 1980’s. One customer asked the maker of the game if they had rules simulating this conflict escalating into a nuclear war. His reply was ….. pour lighter fluid on the map and cardboard pieces and apply a match.
I’m assuming that you meant to ask about ICBM’s and not about International Business Machines. And if a war in the ME starts to involve people throwing ICBM’s around, then the above rules from that old board game would apply. None of us will live through it.

In honour of Dennis Leary’s safe arrival and return to the cafe; my original guitar god idol Jimi Hendrix, and in recognition of the wonderful service of the Saker in providing a world encircling arena in which the principalities and powers can ride their chargers in earth’s full view; and,
In the spirit of endeavouring to bring together the seemingly disparate threads of poetry, cryptography, and the theology of love;
I propose a simple exercise in the form of a “yanny/laurel” challenge. While simple, it will not be easy, and while seemingly the fruit of a meandering mind in the possession of peyote dreams, it can lead to the realms above; and:
This entire post should be considered, even though not written in verse, a manifestation of what Dante apparently meant by “anagogy”, or as Northrop Frye put it “the fourth level of poetic interpretation: the final impact of the work of art itself, which includes not only the superficial meaning, but all the meanings which can be deduced from it”—-a kind of hypertext if you will.
Therefore, having established the background work, let’s outline the requirements:
A. Listen to Jimi Hendrix’s “Voodoo Chile” on his Electric Ladyland album of 1968,1997; the approximately 18
minute version.
B. Put all your effort into it: endeavour to put your soul’s power into the sense of hearing.
C. At the second verse, at about 3 minute 17 seconds into the song, determine what the fifth word is.
D. Jimi and I maintain there are only two possibilities: one word at his place on the time continuum and one
Word at mine.
E. Our agreement is: if more people hear my word he returns the time he took, if not, so be it.
F. What word do you hear?

Here’s another ziogay Nazi Russian for your entertainment https://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/Despite-Syria-Israel-Russia-relations-are-the-warmest-in-history-485062
“Dobrinin, who served at the Russian Embassy in the early 2000s, calls this a “living bridge.” He notes that 200,000 Jews died fighting for the Soviet Union against the Nazi menace.

“For us, Israel is an important partner in the Middle East. Why? Because we believe Israel is a vibrant economy, strong state, especially if you compare it to some other states in this region which have been weakened over the past years. We believe we have a lot of potential to tap into in the coming years with Israel in the political, tech and economic fields, and movement is both ways; Russia has a lot of things to offer, and Israel has a lot to offer,” says Drobinin.
…[]…
“We respect the national security interests of Israel and take into account Russia’s interests in the region. That allows us to avoid misunderstandings with regards to the intentions of the other party and overcome differences,” he says.”
This was the same guy back in 2015 http://jewishjournal.com/culture/books/232479/haggadah-every-taste/
“Russia’s most senior diplomat in Israel said on Wednesday that Israel had no reason to fear Russia’s presence or actions in Syria.
“Russia will not take any action that will endanger Israel’s national security,” Alexey Drobinin, minister-counsellor at the Russian Embassy, told Israel Radio in an interview in Hebrew.
The Russian delegation was led by First Deputy Chief of General Staff General Nikolai Bogdanovsky, who met his Israeli counterpart, Deputy Chief of Staff Major-General Yair Golan.
The swift emergence of face-to-face contacts between Israeli and Russian generals was in stark contrast to the tenser ties between Moscow, Washington and Ankara.”

“In explaining Israel’s objectives in coordination with the Russians, Netanyahu told CNN in an interview on Sunday: “I went to Moscow to make it clear that we should avoid a clash between Russian forces and Israeli forces.”
“In Syria, I’ve defined my goals. They’re to protect the security of my people and my country. Russia has different goals. But they shouldn’t clash,” he said.
When asked by Reuters about the talks, an official at the Russian embassy in Israel declined to comment.”
Wonder why not.
https://english.alwatanvoice.com/news/2015/10/07/788492.html
“According to the media report, Israel will submit more requests to the Russians in exchange for “attractive” offers to facilitate the Russian army’s military operations in Syria. It also revealed that Netanyahu and Putin have agreed on several issue in principle, including a Russian pledge to stop the flow of weapons from Syria to Hezbollah, as well as to allow the Israeli air force to carry out operations freely in Syria, even in areas where the Russian army is stationed on the Syrian coast.
Senior officers in the Russian and Israeli air forces will discuss the mechanisms for the coordination of Israeli overflights of Syrian airspace to avoid any conflict with Russian aircraft on operations against opposition groups. Israel is likely to request Russia to coordinate its moves in the Mediterranean in a manner that does not affect Israeli submarines gathering intelligence about Lebanon and Syria.
Another report by Israel Radio on Sunday claimed that Tel Aviv will provide vital intelligence to the Russians in a bid to reduce Iranian influence in Syria.”
Hmm.. sounds to me like Nutten-yahoo has been chomping down on funny mushrooms… are we sure he didn’t also say Putin will bow down and kiss the ground everytime Nutty walks by?
Reuters forgot to mention the source for their info and Alwatan claims an Israeli network called Channel 2TV but also does not provide a link to the info. Lemme guess – ‘leaked’ by the Dept of the Prize Fruitcake Himself?
Some claims really stand out:
•Lebanon had elections recently and Hezbollah won. Hezbollah is now Beirut.
I’ll say that again – Hezbollah is now Beirut – WOW – Big Grin Here – that’s probably the completely terrifying thought that drove Nuts’nFrootLoops to chomp on the funny mushrooms in the first place.
Moscow is unlikely to interfere in arms deals agreements between Tehran and Beirut. Bad for business – they won’t keep their allies allies if they start doing that. More likely, if asked, they said: “Speak to Beirut.” (Russia is not the US – it doesn’t make like other people’s sovereignty is theirs to order about.)
•If that Nutti-YahooFruitcake got all stuff from Moscow then why is Livni saying this at the bottom of the second article?
Seems to me – Nuts got it all wrapped up in big gift box with a pretty bow and butterflies… Hell – now even-Russia is working hard in Syria ‘just for Israel’ according to The Gospel according to Saint Nutsenyahoo.
—————————-
•“as well as to allow the Israeli air force to carry out operations freely in Syria, even in areas where the Russian army is stationed on the Syrian coast.”
What? In that case – why haven’t they bombed the hell outa Iran-in-Syria since Putin announced “Syria doesn’t need S-300s?” I mean – get in fast before Putin changes his mind! And who, precisely, “threatens Israeli national security” around Tartus? What do they want to bomb there? The idea that Russia is going to give Israel permission to invade Syrian airspace at will sounds like … “what Bibi wants for Xmas” – what – instead of firing their missiles from Lebanese or Jordanian airspace now they’ll do … bomb-dumps right over Syria whenever they want? “Putin said we could!” And how soon after the first Israeli dump is Asaad screaming at his ally like a stuck pig? More likely, if asked, Putin said “Speak to Damascus!” (He’s always trying so hard to get people just to TALK to eachother.)
Reuters article:
•“After Putin and Netanyahu met, an Israeli military officer, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Reuters the countries would focus on aerial operations in Syria and “electromagnetic coordination”. “
What is …. “electromagnetic coordination?” (That sounds made up.)
And do these unnamed official spokesmen also wear black shades, black suits, carry black briefcases and go by letters for names when they’re not feeling unwanted?
•…I’ll tell you why “When asked by Reuters about the talks, an official at the Russian embassy in Israel declined to comment.””
Because it’s rude to call the PM of your host country a ferkooking liar.
Lemme guess – ‘leaked’ by the Dept of the Prize Fruitcake Himself?

Is the world being divided into warring regions a la 1984?
Was going to make an argument but this keyboard is kaput.
Could the USA’s fate post 2018 resemble Russia’s fate post 1918?
In commemoration of the passing of a loved one.
“Your Face”
You may be planning departure, as a
human soul leaves the world taking
almost all its sweetness with it.
You saddle your horse. You must be
going. Remember you have friends
here as faithful as grass and sky.
Have I failed you? Possibly you’re
angry. But remember our nights of
conversation, the well work, yellow
roses by the ocean, the longing, the
archangel Gabriel, saying ‘So be it.’
Shams-i-Tabriz*, your face, is what
every religion tries to remember.
The Soul of Rumi, Coleman Barks.
* Shams of Tabriz was Rumi’s teacher and companion, who, in a moment of exasperation asked inwardly, “Lord, show me one of your beloved ones!” A voice came, “What will you give in return?” “My head.” “The one you seek is Jelaluddin Rumi.” Shams did indeed meet Rumi and a few short years later was to pay with his head, murdered by Rumi’s followers who were jealous of the relationship. After searching in vain for Shams’ body, Rumi came to the realization that Shams resided in his own heart. As a result of their meeting, the world today has one of the most electrifying and profound bodies of poetry ever written. Especially recommended are the translations of Coleman Barks. Please note, as Barks states, although Rumi was a Sufi, his works speak directly to Soul. Soul of course, has no colour, creed and does not belong to one thing or another at the expense of something else. It simply IS.
Nice soul amplification in condensed form.
When these recitals of Moonlight, Mississippi and Tabriz waft out the Café Windows and Doors one is called to forget the hurry and worry of daily life and linger here some moments longer than one was planning on.
Encore!
Cheers, Bro. My sentiments exactly.

Dragan Dautovski Synthesis – “Ljubov i Smrt” ( Love and Death ) Timeless meditation on kaval w. acc. piano
Poem 144, from “Soul Fury” by Rumi, Transl. Coleman Barks.
For a long time I stood delighted
in the mud. Then someone suddenly
cut me away, and someone else
carved nine careful wounds
in my beheaded form, the reed
that is now a flute.
Now you will understand why
I might cry out awhile for all
that has happened to me.
Poem 120.
As floodwaters rise around your house,
the cup of your real life begins to fill.
Be happy. One blink,
and the hired man comes
who carries all you own away.
Poem 117.
Some are saturated with this world,
tired of it, but still hungry for you.
Warrior heroes fear
being separated from you.
The gazelle’s wide eyes are beautiful,
but not so much next to yours.
Lions hiding in undergrowth are held
in the strength of your tall-grass hair.
In Baghdad a great master is taking on a forty-day
retreat.
On the night before New Year’s he hears an inner
voice:
‘We have given you the breath of Jesus. Come out and let
the people see.’
He wonders what this means. Some kind of test?
The voice comes again, stronger. ‘Leave your hesitation
behind! Come out.
Go to many kinds of gatherings. We have given you the
breath of Jesus. Breathe it
among the people.’ Still, he wants to consider this longer
in the clarity of seclusion.
A third time. This time the voice is shouting: COME
OUT! He breaks his retreat.
It is the day of the festival. He’s walking among
the crowds.
A candyseller has made little birds of sugar candy,
calling, ‘New Year’s candy!’
He says to himself, I’ll see about this breath of Jesus, and
calls to the candyman.
People wonder what the meditation master is doing. He
has no interest in candy.
He takes a birdshape from the tray and puts it on his
palm. He blows on it.
Immediately, it turns into a bird, feathers, wings, bright
eyes, intention, and flies away.
People gather closer. He does it again, again. And once more.
The crowds are now prostrating on the ground around
him in awe and astonishment.
He feels oppressed by the attention. He sets out quickly
for the desert. They follow.
He turns on them: ‘I have work to do alone.’ They keep
coming.
He prays, ‘Lord, what is this gift you have given that
envelops me with this crowd?’
Then an inspiration comes. ‘Do something to offend them.’
So he farts.
The great master breaks wind loud and long. The
people look at each other,
shake their heads, and leave, all but one.
The master sees the radiance of this one young man’s
need, the splendour of his soul.
‘Why didn’t you leave with the others?’ The young
man says,
‘I was not blown in on the first wind of inspiration to let
myself be blown out
by the second, and besides, the second is better. It gives peace
to your blessed essence,
That first wind, the charisma, brought you a confined
feeling.
I prefer your second, crowd-dispersing, fart-wind.’
Rumi, “Soul Fury”, p. 167. Coleman Barks translation.
Need to say I like them ? Yes I like them, thank you for sharing !
I knew you would, Ioan. Glad you enjoyed them. Its truly a phenomenon that Rumi, more than seven centuries on, has become one of the best selling poets in the US. This is largely due to the work of Coleman Barks. His versions derive from existing more or less literal translations from Arberry, Nicholson and others. However, if you’ve read other versions of Rumi – there are many – they often feel as though something is missing, you will probably concede that Barks’ are among the best. So we’ve him to thank for the joy of being able to access Rumi today via the English language. Barks seems to have an innate understanding of Rumi’s message and then is able to bring that to his work. Imagine for a moment the difficulties if you were faced with trying to translate Shakespeare, Blake or Whitman into another language.
Yes Dimitar, it’s very hard to translate and meanwhile to keep the essence of a poem indeed, not an easy task at all. Thanks for those dedicated to do such a hard work, we can enjoy these poems today.
Thanks for this Dimitar.
I really enjoyed the selection, and will seek out Barks translations.
Glad you enjoyed them, Eimear. There are many but the titles Ive been perusing recently and can recommend are “The Soul of Rumi”, “The Big Red Book” and “Soul Fury”. Also, there is an great CD of Barks reading selections from Rumi as well as some of his own poetry, to music composed by cellist David Darling. http://www.colemanbarks.com/shop/1/Audio/78/JUST-BEING-HERE-RUMI-AND-HUMAN-FRIENDSHIP-a-3cd-set

A couple of books that caught my eye:
Artists Re:thinking the Blockchain (2017)
“This landmark publication brings together a diverse array of artists and researchers engaged with the blockchain, unpacking, critiquing and marking the arrival of it on the cultural landscape for a broad readership across the arts and humanities.”
MoneyLab Reader 2: Overcoming the Hype (2018)
“We consider experiments with digital coops, internet-based payment and network-based revenue models as spaces of political imagination, with an equally important aesthetic program. In this second MoneyLab Reader the network delves into topics like the financialization of art; love as a binary proposition on the blockchain; the crowdfunding of livelihood; the cashless society; financial surveillance of the poor; universal basic income as the real McCoy or a real sham; the cooperative answer to Airbnb and Uber; the history of your financial dashboard; and, Hollywood’s narration of the financial crisis. Fintech rushes through our veins, causing a whirlwind of critical concepts, ideas and imaginaries. Welcome to the eye of the storm.”
Oh my, Mujo, two more books on my reading stack piled high……..
So many volumes, so little scaling by my blockchain body and brain!
The body says “Just quit, you’re done!” ….the mind says “WHAT??? We’ve just begun!”
The heart swells to the moon with LVB aided by violincello, The Mississippi Blues and Rumi, The Persian Muse.
And here comes Russia, perhaps too late to enlist the Love Army Commander to Coding Poetry …but last true believer might rebeam that notion, that emotion all the way to Wisconsin for the Most Earnest Lover’s Wistful Heart to let this, most charming yet, crypto commenter, IN:

Now, to recruit my wife to review another Russian Lady’s words and give us a synopsis of her Review of What Is This Goddess of The Dawn, from the Russian Point of View……..
Yeah, my reading list is already long enough too, but I’m rather tempted to promote a few articles from these two books to the head of the queue.
Thanks for the Russian cypto report. I watched with less understanding than you, likely, but was nonetheless entertained. If you figure out the significance of the cartoon Spetsnaz doods playing hot potato with the rifle around 1:48, let me know! lol

A technical question for miltary hardware experts regarding the recent video of an Israeli missile hitting the demonstrably off-line Pantsir parked on the runway.
What are the capabilities of the Pantsir, for in this case, defence against a short range missile of the anti-tank variety. It is my understanding that 4-6 seconds is all that is needed for detection and missile launch and the video shown gives way more time than that. Plus the cannons may require even less time, the unit can work down to ground level and minimum range is a ridiculously short 0.2 meters. The S1 is the first version and it is unclear though what its limitations are versus later versions -academic as that Pantsir was clearly not operational. Had it been operational is there anything the Israeli missile could have done to avoid destruction?

“Earth has it’s 400th straight warmer-than-average month thanks to global warming.”
IOWs every month since 1984 has been warmer than the month prior.
The temperature anomalies in the Arctic are projected to run 3-4 degrees C warmer in the months ahead.
Let’s hope that Arctic sea ice holds on.
Almost no hope of arctic sea ice holding on, an icefree arctic summer is expected within the next few years. And now the evidence of Antarctice ice melting is mounting, both from above and below the icesheet. And theoretical models are now finding scenarios of possible pathways of catastrophic collapse of parts of the antarctic sheet.

Prof Guy Mcperson suggests that if the dozens of positive feedbacks he knows take hold we may have only a decade as a human civilization.., in the arctic itself he says he knows of a dozen…. if the ice goes, the latent heat buffer goes, you get rapid temperature rise in the shallow arctic, leading to abrupt methane release, resulting global temperature rise can destroy our capacity to grow foodgrains at scale…then….

I’ve been relaxing with anti-crypto and pro-crypto Battles of The Rant Bands here in the OC, searching for a way to continue the exploration of exactly WHERE this cryptographic phenomenon fits into the Bigger Geopolitical Civilizational Picture.
“I still woking on it….”, as my Chinese friends say.
ERGO I’m not claiming to know or believe these guys (on either side of the Rant Divide) anymore than I know or believe whether Q is good or bad for the Collective World Political I.Q…..because I don’t feel any need to make up my mind on anything……when sufficient information is lacking to do so, And I am still in the collecting and cross-checking mode……
SO: First, with more vehemence, Christopher Greene disses Warren Buffet, Charlie Munger and Bill Gates who were all three interviewed together in one place, simultaneously (where Munger said Peddling Bitcoin to the Ignorant Public is like Feeding Them Freshly Harvested Baby Brains….)
https://youtu.be/GQ3CeidVyRY less than 9 minutes
16 seconds in Greene at least gives us some footage of these three NWO ghouls and disses Buffet pretty harshly for calling Bitcoin “Rat Poison” while consistently missing the boat on technology because he just “doesn’t get it” and proceeds to rant with at least 9.5 scores from this judge, in terms of volume, polemics and “freedom” message..
This leads seamlessly into
https://youtu.be/shzcNqJZrBY
Keiser Report on RT Social Media Surveillance Capitalism (E1125)
“In this episode of the Keiser Report, Max and Stacy discuss the ‘turds’ ‘harvesting baby brains’ in the cryptocurrency markets, according to Charlie Munger, the 94-year-old billionaire, partner of Warren Buffett. Max and Stacy note that bitcoin was a direct response to the financial system created by the likes of Buffett and Munger so it makes sense that they would react more and more wildly against cryptocurrencies that mock their legacy. In the second half, Max continues his interview with Michael Krieger about social media surveillance capitalism and The Road to 2025.”
Which Krieger asserts Leads to Our Freedom From Empire….If We Demand It, And Don’t Weaken
Max and Stacy, as expected, beat up the Old Men’s Club That Wants to Continue To Squat On the World and Milk It For All the Wealth and Control They Can Wrest From Humanity and Transfer Over Into Their Own Accounts.
Max does make a very cogent point that the “baby brains” comment by 94 year old Munger, doesn’t exactly throw us of the investigative trail of his association with the NWO Illuminatti who ritually rape children and drink their blood to extend their lives past 100 years of age So As To Cling To Control As Long As Inhumanly Possible. The same suspicion occurred to me, but Max voiced it first.
I hope I am not betraying my sympathies, as I am still researching this. LOL
But then at the 13 minute mark their invited guest Michael Kreiger from Boulder, Colorado makes the kind of case I have been looking for, in connecting this area of “Democratized Finance” (as seen by those on one side of the Decentralized vs Centralized slugfest….) to the struggle against the Empire Model….. world-wide.
Controversial, but tightly argued! Relevant!
To Those Who Desire A Multi-Polar World and Abhor Empire Hegemony.
Krieger might lump Trump in with the Old Men’s Club. Quite possibly, he’s right. But of the 4 he did by far the most (the other 3 did exactly ZERO) to head off the Wicked Witch of the West……and that buys humanity …..A Little More Time.

Zionist hasbara training classes for editing Wikipedia are sometimes reported. Now Craig Murray identifies and analyses one ‘ person ‘ ‘Philip Cross’ who has been editing Wikipedia at an almost humanly impossible rate, 133612 edits in 14 years… almost 30 edits a day, 7 days a week… think of the time and energy it would take for an ordinary person to do that…
Philip Cross seems to have only 200 twitter followers, but many of them are prominent MSM journalists, Jmesurier the white helmets brit intelligence agent etc. ( by comparison CraigMurray himself has 42300 followers )..
So is ‘ Philip Cross ‘ a real person, or a hasbara/intelligence construct or both ? Murray has some detailed posts, including the sort of Wikipedia edits ‘philipcross’ has been making etc

” Because the purpose of the “Philip Cross” operation is systematically to attack and undermine the reputations of those who are prominent in challenging the dominant corporate and state media narrative. particularly in foreign affairs. “Philip Cross” also systematically seeks to burnish the reputations of mainstream media journalists and other figures who are particularly prominent in pushing neo-con propaganda and in promoting the interests of Israel. “

How Israel and its partisans work to censor the Internet
Numerous well funded, organized projects by and for Israel work to flood social media with pro-Israel propaganda, while blocking facts Israel dislikes. The projects utilize Israeli soldiers, students, American teens and others, and range from infiltrating Wikipedia to influencing YouTube. Some operate out of Jewish Community Centers in the U.S.

“In time, we’ll have be able to compare different “top articles” according to every major viewpoint on the planet. And since the resource will be open, competing apps will be able to feature neutral articles, or whatever bias they wish—or allow the user to choose.
That might make it easier for the biased to indoctrinate the ignorant. But side-by-side comparisons of excellent statements of different viewpoints will dramatically improve knowledge and education. We will learn more about what others believe, and why. That’s a good thing. Our knowledge will be strengthened.
And the top-rated articles will be kept up-to-date, because in a fierce global competition, articles that are not updated will quickly drop in the rankings.
Philosophers often speak expansively of “the conversation of mankind.” The internet’s version of this is a shouted, half-heard argument in a crowded bar. This cacophony is about to be resolved with more clarity than ever before.
Or, to change the metaphor, we are about to map the world’s dialectical landscape. Competing claims will be located. The best evidence on all sides will be drawn in detail. Every item of interest will be marked down. And no part of the map will ever be erased or hidden.
How could the world possibly stay the same? How could such a detailed chart of our best guesses fail to improve us?”

Wikipedia could do this with their present infrastructure — blockchain isn’t necessary — but they don’t.

Craig Murray has been writing recently about how Wikipedia’s community editing is manipulated against those who dare to oppose the empire. He’s spotted one identity that appears to have been constantly editing 24/7 for years on end. Always against groups that are against the wars or otherwise oppose the empire.
Search on his name on any unbiased search engine and Ambassador Murray’s blog should be easily findable.

Armchair Cafe Theology (ACT) Part 29
A la Miles Mathis, I preface by disclosing that this is my opinion, based on my research and intuition; and that I could be wrong, delusional or simply irrelevant–and I could also be right, lusional and relevant, or somewhere in between, as I crack open the cosmic egg with a new language and culture. In any case, thanks to the grace of this Cafe, I need not fear losing face or my place in the human race; as I mix reason and rhyme, all in good time.
The Virgin is an integral part of Christianity. The Blessed Virgin Mary is the Heart of Theology and therefore of Love. These great doctrines of Christianity regarding the Virgin Mary have their origins in the pre-patriarchal Love Culture, and in Nature herself. Nature is mostly parthenogenic, meaning “virgin birth,” not requiring intercourse with a man or insemination, but based on the division of cells, going from mother cell to daughter cell and so on.
In pre-patriarchal language, “virgin” had a different meaning: that of “vir-gyn,” a “man-woman,” in other words, a woman who was not a mother. The important point is that in the Love Culture, prior to the Power Cult of patriarchy, a woman could have sexual intercourse with a man and not get pregnant, by her own choice, using the many kinds of natural birth control available to nature based women; like herbs, pre-ovulatory girls who were sexually active for several years, post-menopausal years and having intercourse during menstruation, and others, while enjoying a great variety of sexual expression that did not involve pregnancy; all within a “communal sex” setting.
Our lover ancestors did not have the hang-ups that we do, due to patriarchy, like shame, guilt, repression, squeamishness about blood, monogamy, jealousy, control of the opposite sex, resentment and hidden anger, abused childhoods, absence of natural birth environments and many more patrix impediments. We can hardly imagine what a natural, un-repressed sex life was like in a small, close knit community, where war, armies, taxes, police, jobs, schools, politicians, bitcoins, block chains, obors and robors were unknown. In order to understand the ancient Love Culture, we have to practice the Ten Love Commandments of the Love Government, Army and Bower, at least in some degree, if not in their integrated wholeness and holiness.
Sacred Sex is not secular or sacral sex, proceeding from unmet body, emotional, mental and spiritual needs. Is it any wonder that we have endless wars when we lack the rudiments of sane and healthy sex? War is the result of the rejection of natural sex, where rifles, spears, knives, rockets, bullets, bombs and the great variety of killing tools drive our economies and ecosystem to hell. Despite the mass murder of our minds through imperial psy-ops, dogmas like the Virgin, Virgin Birth, Mother of God, Immaculate Conception and Insemination by the Holy Spirit shine through the cracks of the Empire’s chastity-belt cult of “kill-joy” sex; as is proved 24/7, every second of our lives, by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: War, Disease, Famine of body and soul–and Death.
Pagans and Christians have always been devoted to the Lover as Womam, Virgin and Mother, and forced the Empire to compose dogmas like the Virgin and Mother of God, the Theotokos; or we would never have heard of such teachings. Now the Empire has found a way to go around and subvert these teachings–by corrupting the general culture with phony, fake and sick-trick sex, which is nothing but a hex. Here in the Vineyard, we are not immune from empire attacks but at least we have the Love Army and Bower to keep the Cafe clean and swept. The fate of the world is in our hands, and the brooms and scrub brushes are at hand.
Jesus was a Man among men, which means that God is a Man among men, and a Womam among Women, which means Theology is too, which means we are also. Saint John said that if all the teachings and deeds of Jesus were recorded, there would not be enough books or libraries to hold them all. Jesus-She’sus said that what he did, we would do, and even greater. The Emperor and the Church Fathers at the Council of Nicea in 325 formulated many of our present dogmas, but left out most of the conflicting views and devotional practices of the faithful, in the interests of a power based patrix system. There are apocryphal gospels that imply Jesus and Mary Magdalene were lovers within a communal sex setting, in the stories of Jesus hanging out with women and children. Only the Three Mary’s: Mary the Sister, Mary the Mother and Mary the Lover–and John the Beloved stayed with Jesus at the Cross to the bitter end. Mary, his lover, was the first to meet him at the Resurrection.
As far as we know, Jesus and Mary had no children, which means they were virgins in the deep traditional sense of not being mothers. Today the tradition is carried on by nuns and monks who vow celibacy; but misunderstanding what a virgin is, also forego sex, and therefore true natural love. A similar misinterpretation also occurs with monogamy, meaning a man can have sex with only one woman, and a woman with only one man, setting up endless unfaithfulness in body and spirit. All this is a result of the patriarchal putsch rebellion against natural sex and genuine love.
And so we are stuck with a war of the sexes and a war of the hexes by wicked warlords and sickly witches. To break this logjam, we need a middle way between Russia & Co. in the east and the rest in the west. The former is too rigid and frigid; and the latter too looney and loose, when it comes to money and morals. In medio stat virtus; in the middle stands power. That middle way for us now between Christianity and Insanianity is the Love Government and its Army, Bower and Vineyard. Moses and his ten commandments and Jesus with his eight beatitudes agree. It’s an idea whose time has come.
The Virgin I’m talking about is The Lover, both Womam and Man, but Womam as First Principle and Principal, rather than Patrix Man. The Bible reversed the original version of Man as Womam’s helpmate with the Adam and Eve misdirection; we now reverse the reverse. The Lover, the central conception between Love and Lovers–Love, Lover and Lovers, or Love/r/s is another Christ Trinity, long ago buried but now resurrected as the Lover Virgin. Constantine the Emperor of 312 at the Milvian Bridge and 325 at the Nicea Ridge, and his bloodline descendant, Emperor Count Khazar today don’t like but there it is, thanks to the Love Army.
The Virgin Vineyard is praised in the Song of Songs by Solomon. The Beloved comes to the Lover Virgin in a vineyard, and opens the latch to her body’s door, and in sacred sex metaphors, describes her body as hills and valleys, fountains and rivers, milk and honey and nectar of the gods. Later, She’sus (Jesus as all of us) would say: “If anyone thirst, let them come to me and drink, for from my belly (vulva) flow streams of living water.” Eden means “pleasure where water flows.” “And the soldier pierced his side, and blood and water flowed out.” “Eat my body and drink my blood (water).”
The Bible overflows with sexual metaphors, many set in a vineyard. It is no accident that we find ourselves in a vineyard, complete with a cafe for moveable feasts, like ioan’s liturgical Orthodox Calendar. The music, songs, art, poems, celtic craic, jigs, dancing and romancing are all entrancing, and attest to the interplay of virgin and vineyard, memorializing Jesus in the Vineyard Garden of Gethsemane-Eden and his flowing blood and sweat-water, as he contemplated the drama that would reshape the world forever.
Referring to our Vineyard, he said: “What I have done, you will do, and even greater.” We’re already doing it but more is required to stop war in its tracks and play top gun over empire. The Womam Virgin is a potent symbol of the sovereign individual, whole and complete in herself, beautiful and all-attractive, ensconced in a community of lovers and eternally self-generating. She is not the only archetype–there are others like Mother, Father, Child–but she is the main one, upon whom all others depend upon and dance around.
You will notice that love language like this mixes reason and rhyme, poetry and logic together; which can be disconcerting and anxiety producing in an overly controlled person. We are here on this planet to deal with these kind of disturbances, and to come to some kind of integrated resolution before we pass on. This feasting and festive Cafe with its round and rectangular tables assists us in this process. As we listen and learn from everything, positive and negative, love takes hold of us, and holds us in her arms, as we fall more and more deeply into Love. Truly, in the final analysis, Love is all there is. And the sexually fulfilled lover is proof of that natural fact.
Love, Dennis from Tomah, Wisconsin
I am so happy you made it safely to shelter! And I am sad, or somewhat chagrined that you preach communal sex. And you being a nurse! Didn’t you work with women?
I worked as a nurse for 32 years. I was in Vietnam as a soldier for one year as the normal rotation and in the army for two. So I have experience in two oppositely weighted by sex cultures as it looks like you do too.
Communal sex is the devil’s playground. The fiercest sexual predator rapidly rises to the top and the rest ultimately serve him (the devil, whatever particular manifestation he may take).
God gives a wo(man) whatever s(he) most desires. Make sure you desire god most of all.

Or political campaigns.
I remember reading Naomi Klien’s book The Shock Doctrine a while before the Obama 2008 campaign. She was writing about ways of overcoming popular and democratic will, and the trojan horse campaign was one example given. I was thus well prepared for a campaign promising change and hope, but once in office revealing itself to be the willing servant of Wall Street and the Deep State and effecting changes that would normally be opposed.
The Trump campaign now seems to be a similar tactic, especially since we know this was all planned to bring about a major war in the ME with Israeli and Saudi people and money. So Trump was planning a regime change war at the same time he was saying he opposed them. Probably taking a phone call from his Saudi backers just before he hit the stage to say what the crowd wanted to hear.
I suspected the Trojan horse in action in 1989 but not wanted to believe it yet, at that time. Only one and a half years later I realized it is true. Since, that method has grown in power and intensity.

Israeli Intel Firm Inked Cooperation Deal With Cambridge Analytica – Reports
https://sputniknews.com/world/201805231064724923-israel-intel-company-cambridge-analytica/
“In August 2016, Israeli entrepreneur Joel Zamel, owner of the Psy-Group intelligence-gathering firm, reportedly met Donald Trump Jr. in New York to discuss ways to help presidential candidate Trump win the election, a claim dismissed by the US president as false.
The Wall Street Journal has cited sources familiar with the matter as saying that in late 2016, a company owned by Israeli entrepreneur Joel Zamel clinched a deal on a strategic partnership with the digital media firm Cambridge Analytica which has been mired in a scandal surrounding illegal data.
The two’s Memorandum of Understanding, which was signed on December 14, 2016, stipulated developing bilateral cooperation “on a case-by-case basis to provide intelligence and social-media services, or pitch business to an array of clients,” according to the sources.
Late last week, US President Donald Trump rejected a New York Times report that Trump Jr. met Zamel and an emissary to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates in New York in August 2016 in a bid “to offer help to the Trump team.”
In separate development last week, media reported that US Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team is investigating the Psy-Group’s money flows into its Cyprus bank account.
Cambridge Analytica, last week, filed for voluntary bankruptcy in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, in a move that came after the US Justice Department and FBI opened a probe into the company’s financial dealings.
Earlier media reports claimed that the personal information of about 50 million Facebook users had been harvested by Cambridge Analytica during the 2016 US presidential elections on behalf of the Trump campaign.”
It’s not the “Russian connections” to the their colonial trump regime, which don’t exist, that the israelis are worked up about. It is the regime’s connection to israel itself. This why israel has set it’s most loyal media dogs upon mueller as of late.
Jared Kushner Gets Permanent Security Clearance Back – Reports
https://sputniknews.com/us/201805241064741064-usa-kushner-security-clearance-status/
“US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner has received his permanent security clearance after a year of being in temporary status, US media reported on Wednesday.
US media reported that Kushner’s interim security clearance was downgraded in February from Top Secret/SCI-level to the Secret level.”
The security clearance downgrade was a legalese formality, doubtful it was operative in any real sense. Like most of the trump regime quislings, kushner is israeli.
Good report on Israeli censorship campaign.

“Successful revolution is Big Business-make no mistake about that. In a modern, complex, and highly industrialized state, revolution is not accomplished by a handful of conspirators whispering around a guttering candle in a deserted ruin. It requires countless personnel, supplies, modern machinery and modern weapons. And to handle these factors successfully there must be loyalty, secrecy, and superlative staff organization.”

Ex-Spy Skripal’s Mother Asks UK on Russian TV to Let Her Talk to Son
https://alethonews.com/2018/05/22/ex-spy-skripals-mother-asks-uk-on-russian-tv-to-let-her-talk-to-son/
“A frail elderly lady who presented herself as the mother of a former Russian intelligence officer, who was allegedly poisoned in England in March, made a public appeal requesting to be allowed to talk to her son.
A 90-year-old woman, who identified herself as the mother of Sergei Skripal, made an appearance on Russian state television, pleading that the British authorities let her speak with her son via phone – something that she effectively still hasn’t been allowed to do.
“I haven’t seen my son for 14 years. I want to meet him, to hug my son tightly. I’m ninety years old, I pose no threat to anyone. Please, let me make at least one phone call to my son,” she said.
The woman added that she simply couldn’t comprehend why her son wasn’t allowed to contact her.”
While not necessarily the case, I am sure many on here could think of one very good reason why nobody could talk to him.
URGENT: Yukia Skripal gives first media interview since Salisbury poisoning

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCGKUgaGqpg
Sounds very fishy to me -and there’s a passing resemblance to earlier pictures but that’s all. It can be explained by the hospital treatment but it’s a little odd that a ‘nerve-agent’ recovery episode could substantially improve the looks of Yulia. Perhaps a ‘Novichok’ beauty enhancement product will follow?
As for the ‘I do not wish to avail myself’ nonsense officialese script, I find it very difficult to understand why she would reject her family. There’s way more to this than meets the eye -and MI6/CIA are heavily involved in the farce. The script is not a natural one. Yulia is under duress.

Given the tracheotomy scar on Julia’s neck she underwent some very serious medical intervention … or intervention to keep her comatosed and unable to talk.
Her prepared by someone else and very scripted ‘interview’ raises more questions.
I am sure the UK Russian Ambassador will keep on her case.

Embassy Press Officer comments on Yulia Skripal’s video address
We are glad to have seen Yulia Skripal alive and well. The statement she read out contains new information. However, the video shown only strengthens our concerns as to the conditions in which she is being held. Obviously, Yulia was reading a pre-written text. More than that, judging by quite a few elements, the text was a translation from English and had been initially written by a native English-speaker. The handwritten letters signed by Yulia in Russian and English confirm this impression.
With all respect for Yulia’s privacy and security, this video does not discharge the UK authorities from their obligations under Consular Conventions. The UK is obliged to give us the opportunity to speak to Yulia directly in order to make sure that she is not held against her own will and is not speaking under pressure. So far, we have every reason to suspect the opposite.
The reuters interview with yulia skripal was arranged the day after the her grandmother appealed to be able to visit her son.
Now that wouldn’t be a coincidence, would it.

Trump’s Lawyer Took $500k to Set Up Meeting Between Trump, Ukraine President
https://sputniknews.com/us/201805231064740305-michael-cohen-ukraine-white-house-meeting/
“Michael Cohen, US President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, was secretly paid anywhere from $400,000 to $600,000 to arrange a sit-down meeting between Trump and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, according to a report released by the BBC on Wednesday.
The report, which cites several sources in Kiev, noted that the hefty payment was made through intermediaries acting on behalf of Poroshenko. Cohen was not registered as a foreign agent of Ukraine under the US Foreign Agents Registration Act when the agreement was inked, the report indicated.
As the story goes, the decision to bring Cohen into the fold was made after Ukraine’s registered lobbyists and its Washington, DC, embassy failed to schedule a meeting between the two presidents that could be seen as “talks.” Wanting to set up the backchannel, Poroshenko reportedly tasked a former aide and a Ukrainian MP to handle the matter.
The Ukrainian MP was later put in touch with Cohen after using personal contacts at a Jewish charity in New York.
Though sources confirmed the arrangement was made, discrepancies surfaced over the amount that Cohen was paid. One source stated that the 51-year-old lawyer was paid $400,000, while another indicated that he was paid some $600,000.
However, though the deal had been struck, the meeting remained on shaky grounds and even as Poroshenko was traveling to the states, it wasn’t clear whether Cohen had been able to broker any more than just a “brief few minutes of small talk and a handshake.”
“But negotiations continued until the early hours of the day of the visit. The Ukrainian side were angry, the official went on, because Cohen had taken ‘hundreds of thousands’ of dollars from them for something it seemed he could not deliver,” the report states. “Right up until the last moment, the Ukrainian leader was uncertain if he would avoid humiliation.”
At the end of the day, Poroshenko ended up getting what he wanted out of his June 2017 meeting at the White House, which was deemed a “substantial visit.”
Sounds like “pay to play” trump regime style. Questions are where did the money go after cohen and what was it used for? Did trump and cohen pocket it, or share it with others “on the team”? Did they declare the bribe as income on their tax returns? Did others have to “pay to play” to hold hands with trump? Was the money used to buy luxuries? Was it used to fund off the record illegalities, like Iran-contra? Drones and chem weapons for daesh, for example.
This story stinks to high Heaven.
No newsworthy sources cited, no confirmations, no money found … nothing.
Total rubbish put about by the British Bullshit Company.
Now we know why nobody in israel’s trump regime went after the clinton “pay to play” corruption. ;-D
This sort of thing needs to happen on a regular basis. The zionazi-gay media won’t cover these protests, but the real news media will.
‘You sign off on genocide’: Protesters attack Haley over Palestine (VIDEO)
https://www.rt.com/usa/427598-haley-houston-genocide-protest/
“Haley was mere moments into her speech at the university on Tuesday and had just referred to the “very busy few weeks in American foreign policy” when she was interrupted by a protester shouting, “Nikki Haley, the blood is on your hands.”
“Oh jeez,” a visibly nervous Haley said as the protester continued to shout, “you continue to sign off on the genocide of a native people” to loud applause and booing.
“Nikki, Nikki can’t you see, you are on a killing spree!” a number of protesters shouted. “Haley, Haley, you can’t hide, you sign off on genocide.”

“Blood Is on Your Hands”: Nikki Haley Heckled During University Speech (VIDEOS)
https://sputniknews.com/us/201805231064738449-Nikki-Haley-Interrupted-Palestine-Houston/
“I’m here following a very busy few weeks in American foreign policy,” Haley began to say.
That’s when a protester stood up and shouted at the top of his lungs: “Nikki Haley, the blood is on your hands! You continue to sign off on the genocide of a native people! You are an accomplice to terrorists and colonizers!”
After this monologue, dozens of protesters stood up and erupted in a call-and-answer chant across the auditorium, holding up Palestinian flags. They chanted “Nikki Nikki can’t you see? You are on a killing spree!” and “Nikki Haley you can’t hide, you signed off on genocide!”
Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) at UH, an anti-Zionist, pro-Palestine student advocacy group with branches at colleges and universities across the US and several other countries, issued a statement Monday in anticipation of Haley’s speech. However, it is unclear if they or another group was behind the Tuesday protest.
SJP UH slammed Haley for her “spiteful actions before and during her time as ambassador to the United Nations demonstrate her blatant discrimination against Palestinians and blind eye to injustices around the world,” noting that she has “worked relentlessly to block the UN Humans Rights investigation into Israel’s murderous crimes in Gaza” and that she has a long history and commitment to “silencing the voices of those who have spoken out against Israel’s atrocious acts against Palestinians.” SJP noted that during her time as governor of South Carolina, Haley spearheaded a law that made South Carolina the second US state to explicitly bar businesses from boycotting Israel under the BDS (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions) campaign.
“Nikki Haley embodies the racism inherent in the US’ anti-Palestinian position,” the statement goes on to say. “Her decisions, actions and dehumanization of Palestinian lives show her complicity in the genocide of a native people fighting for liberation. In inviting Nikki Haley to its campus, the University of Houston demonstrates how little it cares about the safety and concerns of its students, including the large community of Palestinians that attend and contribute to UH’s diversity.”
“We, the undersigned student organizations and faculty, declare unequivocally that hatred in all its forms is not welcome at our university and that no matter when injustice rears its ugly head, those of us on the correct side of history will confront it. We call on the university to signal to its students and the broader community that it is committed to its principles of diversity and inclusion by condemning the presence of Nikki Haley on our campus in light of her recent actions. No matter how blurred the values of our country become, the university must stay true to its values and speak out against all forms of injustice, hatred, and bigotry.”
In line with the Trump administration’s hostility toward the Palestinian cause, Haley’s conduct in the United Nations on the United States’ behalf has been similarly bellicose, declaring on December 20, 2017, during a vote in the UN General Assembly on a resolution criticizing US recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel earlier that month, that the US “will be taking names” and that Trump had asked her to report back “who voted against us,” the BBC reported at the time.The issue of ownership of Jerusalem is highly contentious in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as Palestinians insist that Jerusalem must be the capital of any future Palestinian state.”

Statement Against the Presence of Nikki Haley at The University of Houston
On Tuesday, May 22, 2018, the University of Houston is hosting a student session with U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley at the Cullen Performance Hall from 4:00pm to 5:30pm. Nikki Haley’s spiteful actions before and during her time as ambassador to the United Nations demonstrate her blatant discrimination against Palestinians and blind eye to injustices around the world. Nikki Haley has worked relentlessly to block the UN Humans Rights investigation into Israel’s murderous crimes in Gaza, which resulted in 109 dead and thousands more injured, including children, women and the disabled. [1] Continuing to falsely justify the massacres, Haley claimed Israel showed “restraint” on the bloodiest day for Palestinians since the 2014 assault on Gaza. [2] On Tuesday, May 15th, Haley walked out of the UN Security Council meeting when a Palestinian envoy arrived to speak on the murders Israel has committed against peaceful protesters taking part in the Great March of Return, a protest signifying the right of return for all Palestinians exiled from their homes in 1948. [3]
Nikki Haley’s longtime commitment to silencing the voices of those who have spoken out against Israel’s atrocious acts against Palestinians traces back to her tenure as state governor of South Carolina. Haley spearheaded the unconstitutional anti-BDS (boycott, divestment, and sanctions), movement making South Carolina the second state in the nation to sign into law a bill that prevents businesses from engaging in their first amendment right to boycott. [4] These anti-boycott laws have been enacted in 24 states,[5] all sharing the common goal of prohibiting people from participating in boycotts protesting Israeli government policies. [6]
As we mark the 70th anniversary of the Nakba, or catastrophe, which dispossessed 750,000 Palestinians with the creation of Israel and set off decades of ongoing displacement, ethnic cleansing, and settler colonialism, Israel continues to perpetrate acts of genocide in Gaza. The two million Palestinians living in Gaza, most of whom are displaced from other parts of Palestine, exist in the world’s largest open-air prison. Through its military occupation and decade-long blockade, Israel has left Gaza with over 95% of its water undrinkable and only 4 hours of electricity a day. [7] The United Nations has deemed Gaza unlivable by the year 2020 due to these worsening conditions. [8] We recognize the need for Palestinian resistance in a situation that is no less than a question of life or death.
Nikki Haley embodies the racism inherent in the US’s anti-Palestinian position. Her decisions, actions, and dehumanization of Palestinian lives show her complicity in the genocide of a native people fighting for liberation. In inviting Nikki Haley to its campus, the University of Houston demonstrates how little it cares about the safety and concerns of its students, including the large community of Palestinians that attend and contribute to UH’s diversity.
We, the undersigned student organizations and faculty, declare unequivocally that hatred in all its forms is not welcome at our University and that no matter when injustice rears its ugly head, those of us on the correct side of history will confront it. We call on the University to signal to its students and the broader community that it is committed to its principles of diversity and inclusion by condemning the presence of Nikki Haley on our campus in light of her recent actions. No matter how blurred the values of our country become, the University must stay true to its values and speak out against all forms of injustice, hatred, and bigotry.

‘ This sort of thing needs to happen on a regular basis ‘ Absolutely… isnt it extraordinary that it is Israel that is operating vast concentration camps in Gaza and the West Bank and slaughtering the inmates on an ongoing basis.
In a way this was anticipated by the great Indian moral leader Mahatma Gandhi. Think the founders of israel went to him to endorse the state of israel, and he said something to the effect – how can i endorse the expropriation of the weak.. He was upset by the moral predicament to the effect – here are a people who have been oppressed and now they are using the power of the UK and the US to oppress another people..
If climate change kills us all in the next few years, do the jews want this to be the final legacy of the ‘ jewish state ‘ ?

Who painted the nose section of the destroyed Malaysian Airlines plane in the colors of the Russian Flag?

Too Many People Waking Up After a Decades-Long Sleep For This Nonsense to Stand
Now I don’t know Ben Fulford too well but I came across a quite intriguing theory of his last night saying BOTH Malaysian Flights 17 and 370 were the identical aircraft, and how that deception was pulled off.
It reminded me of the theory of how the airliners of 911 and their passengers could have easily been disposed of…………..gassing the passengers asleep, landing the planes in the Atlantic….and having the Deep State (Mossad, CIA, MI-6….what’s the difference???) deployed submarine surface and pick up the non-sleeping special agents/commandos.
Most people will react emotionally,clinging to their particular ego influenced “reality preference” and refuse to mull over other possibilities, attacking the messenger, and defending their prejudices. Getting to the bottom of these mind control related events may require a longer attention span and more plasticity of mind than such predictable reactions.
I don’t know if the passengers were buried at sea or not, but I do know there are multiple missing answers to the question: “If missiles or holograms and other magician tricks were used Sept 11, 2001……were there real planes full of passengers that took off that day leaving not one shred of physical evidence positively identifying ANY of those persons or planes…….or were the planes and passengers “made up”??
1000 to 1 I suspect the missing planes and people took off and not one shred of physical evidence of them remains.(there should be ample proof of that, no??) …but given what other tricks have been pulled, I wouldn’t stake my life on it.
Therefore, “How Could That Have Been Done?” is not a question that is out of line.
It doesn’t mean the above “commandos picked up by submarines” IS how it was done. The point is that is ONE WAY it might have been done, and it were more useful to consider ALL possible methods before tiring and concluding that you are done, investigation over. Because THAT’S what the perpetrators are counting on people doing.
Now, you may not care much about 911 but care a lot more about the Malaysian Flights and the absurd accusations against Russia, and how Putin gained so very very much……… by killing a lot of Malaysians…..and some Dutch. That one is harder to swallow for people here, no?
OK, whether he is right or not or your favorite spook can prove Fulford a fraud……minimally as an exercise of how to look far and wide beyond your controlled choices of possibilities……his theory may have timely usefulness…..
Oh, here it is:
“The Zionists, for their part, acted like Hitler did when he started World War 2 by attacking themselves and then blaming another country. To be exact, the satanic Nazi regime of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attacked Israeli positions in the Golan Heights so they could have an excuse to attack Iranian interests inside Syria, according to Pentagon sources. Needless to say, this latest criminal move failed (yet again) to start World War 3 as desired by the Zionist fanatics.
Of course, all the brouhaha about Iran drew world attention away from events in Malaysia that are likely to be even more devastating for the warmongering Zionists. Here, former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad took power from Zionist pawn Najib Razak in an election upset last week. This means the still sleeping section of the world is about to learn what really happened to Malaysian Air Flight 370. In other words, we are going to have a world leader publicly state that the plane was taken to the U.S. military base on Diego Garcia, flown to Tel Aviv, then flown to Florida and repainted as Malaysian Air Flight 17, then flown to threaten world leaders in Holland before being blown up in the Ukraine in an attempt to smear Russia.
This Malaysian-language website shows they know exactly what happened:

The information in the YT video is not completely correct which is why it exists on YT. Decomposing bodies were found as explained, however all the fresh bodies were mostly found seat belted into their seats. At Amsterdam Airport … Schiphol, MH17 was declared full with 20% of seats unsold and customers being turned away and ticketing staff very puzzled and arguing. The conclusion is, the cargo hold was carrying a sinister cargo and there was no more room for baggage. The pilots were taken out with 30mm cannon fire from both sides of the cockpit and the two old Soviet era heat seeking ordinances were fired from the rear. The pilot who fired the two missiles allegedly shot himself in the head in March 2018.
Vladislav Voloshin, the Ukrainian combat pilot which some Russian investigative journalists have accused of responsibility for the MH17 disaster, allegedly shot himself Sunday at his home.

The Russian Investigative Committee has identified a key witness to the MH17 crash in Ukraine’s Donetsk Region. He is Evgeny Agapov, an aviation armaments mechanic in the Ukrainian Air Force.

Former Ukrainian pilot Vladislav Voloshin, who is suspected of attacking a Malaysian Boeing in the skies over Donbass, has committed suicide. However, originally, the police were calling it was a homicide. Voloshin recently started to complain about his life on social networks and hinted at high-profile disclosures.

Just wondering, did Voloshin manage to shoot himself in the back of the head three or more times?

Trump cancels June meeting with Kim – White House
https://www.rt.com/usa/427665-trump-cancels-june-meeting-kim/
“President Donald Trump has cancelled a much-anticipated summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un…”I feel it is inappropriate, at this time, to have this long-planned meeting,” read the letter, sent a few hours after North Korea blew up its nuke testing site.”
As most figured out a while ago, the israeli’s quisling colonial trump regime never had an intention of negotiating with the DPRK. They want to use a cold war against the country as part of their war strategy against China and Russia. If South Koreans want have peace on the peninsula, they will have to remove the israeloamericans, and their influence, from their country.
Chez Wilbert Paulissen on parle “collabarateur”:
“But on Thursday Wilbert Paulissen, a Dutch official from the Joint Investigation Team (JIT), told reporters: “All the vehicles in a convoy carrying the missile were part of the Russian armed forces.”

This may Increase the number of People who become Illegal immigrants to America from South America, and these matters Will be Divisive among South Americans toward America, who have differing opinions on Why America is Not a Democracy, and who is to blame for that, even as it is among Americans, and it Will be Divisive even among Americans.
It is Not racist to Not want People to be Refugees, because No one wants to be a Refugee, neither should People work toward making other People Refugees, so that they can use the Refugees they created to score some cheap Political points, in the hope of making America a Dictatorship.
There are American People who think that the Election Result in Venezuela may have been different if America’s Election were Perceived to have been conducted, and Actually were were as President Barack Obama said that they would be conducted as Free, Fair, and Democratic, even though Hillary Clinton and her Clintonite Puppet Corruptocrats, with Spygate, with the Knowledge of her Puppet Obama Administration Tried to Rig that recent Election.
We Know that Venezuelan Voters were hearing some less than friendly remarks from America, while they had the Impression, because of what the American Clintonite Corruptocrats and the Establishment RINOS who are the Puppets of the American Shadow Regime said that America is Not a Democracy, with Republican Senator Jeffrey Flake of the President’s own Political Party even comparing the President to Stalin.
These things Influenced the Election Result in Venezuela to a significant decree, and the quick Research I did on this, indicates that the Venezuelan Election was Free and Fair and Democratic, regardless of All of the Lies of Western Fake News, and their Secretly or Voluntarily Filmed ‘journalists’, and other Secretly or Voluntarily Filmed Puppets, as were those who Lied and said that Russia shot down a passenger plane, and these Puppets were Secretly Filmed in Acts of Pedophilia, to Blackmail them to Lie, and a United Nations General Assembly Vote Should take place to let the World Know Why these Anglo American Puppets Slander Innocent People, because they do Not want to go to Prison for their Filmed Acts of Pedophilia.
It Could be what the American Shadow Regime will use to Impeach President Donald Trump, and Americans want the Infrastructure Spending, for those States that have Projects ready to Employ People.
This Shows that Globalization is a Tool for Repression, and that Countries Should Immediately Seek to be as Self Sufficient as Possible, using Committees of Experts of how to do that and even Coal can be made into Fuel for automobiles, and for Countries Only to Trade with, and to use Cashless Barter with their Nearest Neighbors where ever Practical, and depending on their Circumstances, to Mainly Trade with their Nearest Neighbors using Cashless Barter, where there is Free Land.
We Know that ants do Everything they Need to do, and they do Not use or need Money, even though People are Alleged to be More Intelligent, and they do Not use Money so they do Not have to pay Interest, and there is No Inflation.
Perhaps a Country May bring a Charge of Genocide against America to the International Court of Justice, if America objects more than what is Civil that they do Not use Money, and that they do Not use a Central Bank, because these things cause Recessions and cause Unnecessary Poverty and Yankee Imperialistic Economic Sanctions is Genocide on People.
It Could be that the Puppets of America’s Shadow Regime misled President Donald Trump to Knowingly Lie regarding Venezuela’s recent Election, because Contrary to what Western Secretly Filmed or Voluntarily Filmed Liars have said, Venezuela’s Election was Free, Fair, and Democratic, or it Could be that Trump is just another Lying Yankee Psychopath, and the Corruptocrats May Secretly Offer 50 Billion Dollars to Venezuela to Bring Charges on President Donald Trump of Genocide against the People of Venezuela, because Trump Lied regarding the recent Venezuelan Election, and even if it were True, Venezuela is a Sovereign Country, and two wrongs do Not make a right, and the Puppets of America’s Shadow Regime Will make Venezuela a Fair Deal after Trump’s Impeachment, and that is a matter of Secret Negotiations between the Clintonite Democrats and Venezuela.
This is because there will be Elections in America this year, and Trump’s Impeachment on Genocide means that the Democrats Should win back Congress, which is what the Criminal RINOS and the Criminal Corruptocrats want.
Those Sanctions Will Surely have to be Lifted if Trump is Impeached for Genocide because of those Economic Sanctions
America was founded on the Genocide of the Native American Indians, and People from the Rest of the World, Will Voluntarily Boycott All American Goods and Services during that Genocide Trial, and even possibly afterwards, unless America Pays Just Compensation.
Venezuelans Need to take that Compensation that is also for being Slandered by the Yankee Imperialist Psychopaths, and Continue to Seek as Much Self Sufficiency as Possible or Practical, in All Economic matters, and Trump, who said he would lock up Hillary Clinton, then he Will be Impeached or possibly in Prison where he belongs, and where Hillary Clinton wants him.
The People of South America Already Knew that America Lies and Rigs Election in other Countries, and they think that America is a Dictatorship that Rigs its own Elections, and I am think they have Rigged some of their Elections, and it is my opinion that the recent Presidential Election was Free and Fair and Democratic.
