Canada is Amerika’s willing slave:
Canadian authorities said that they arrested the chief financial officer of China’s Huawei Technologies for extradition to the United States.
Meng Wanzhou was detained in Vancouver, British Columbia, on Saturday.
A publication ban has been imposed in the case.
The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this year that U.S. authorities are investigating whether Chinese tech giant Huawei violated sanctions on Iran.
Meng is also deputy chairman of the board and the daughter of company founder Ren Zhengfei.
Huawei issued a statement saying Meng was changing flights in Canada when she was detained “on behalf of the United States of America” to face “unspecified charges” in New York.
What the U.S. does is make international travel hazardous for Russian and Chinese citizens. They are arrested, imprisoned, extradited and prosecuted (while imprisoned in US prisons).
This is the power of hegemony, global hegemony.
Travel is now highly risky if you land in one of the vassal states.
Only diplomates have some protection from the wolvery of American “justice”.
“The Neocon Zionists in the Trump administration have gone way beyond the edge of propriety with this illegal arrest. They will pay for it in ways that they will never see coming…
To understand the magnitude of the arrest of Ms Weng, just imagine how the US would react if Beijing arrested Jeff Bezos’ (hypothetical) daughter?”

We seem to be rapidly reaching the point where no one will feel safe when traveling to the dark side of the Sanctions Curtain.
5 eyes vassals holding tightly to the hegemon’s apron strings.
I hesitate to quote MI6 tabloids seriously but:
“Although there are some waivers, US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin has said the US will “aggressively” target any firm or organisation “evading our sanctions” ”

Excuse me, but this munchkin character sounds like a gangster threatening anyone who gets near his turf. He even looks like a gangster, and his “turf” is the entire planet and then some, sovereignty be damned.
Since when did the US tell China who they can and can’t do business with?

I wonder if they will throw into solitary as they have for the Russian “foreign agent,”Mariia Butina… 60 some days and counting. (sarc)
This is a travesty of human rights.
Bad peace – better than good war. National security is probably a consideration in some situations more so than vasselage or servitude. Trump proclaims openly that he has a strong relationship with Xi and the two of them came to a consensus recently. Why don’t we wait for more info to roll in before drawing conclusions?
Because for many of us here, we know what we see. We don’t need to wait to draw conclusions. Trump loves to use a cudgel (missile strikes, canceled meetings,) to get an advantage. Read his book.
And the Hegemon is long in the tooth. We know what it does and has been doing for decades.
China will pay it back. They do things slow and metrically.
Ask the CIA. They lost every one of their agents inside the Middle Kingdom. Every network wiped out!
Peace? The wars are on. Hybrid wars to contain and destroy China and Russia.
That’s your bad Peace at any cost.
The goal now, clear to the rest of the non-vassal world, is to end the hegemony.
Resistance is not passivity and waiting for the Fascists and Feudalist to go elsewhere.
When the rabid dogs arrive at your doorstep, you end their danger to you.
No waiting . . .

A writer I’m liking more and more begins with ….
“When even the Washington Post is saying your Russiagate article is bad journalism, your Russiagate article is really, really bad journalism.”
and ends with ….
“And that, I believe, is why the mass media have been behaving so strangely. For two years they have been reaching and leaning all over the place trying to regain control of the narrative like a novice ice skater trying to regain balance, and they are only getting closer to falling. Which probably makes the present moment the perfect time to give them a good shove. Spread truth about the mass media’s deceptions like the Guardian‘s psyop against WikiLeaks, wake people up to what they’re trying to accomplish by herding people into partisan echo chambers, arresting Assange, censoring the internet, and marginalizing alternative media which provides dissident narratives.
The only thing keeping the many from rising like lions against the few to create a new world which benefits everyone is the establishment propaganda machine, and right now it is wildly off balance. Shove hard, and don’t stop shoving until it falls.”

Hmmmm, sounds like an idea. Everyone together, One, Two, Three, Shove!
Every big change or revolution in recent times has one thing in common. Nobody sees them coming. Even the people who’ve been proclaiming themselves the vanguard of the coming revolution act as surprised as everyone else on the day it actually arrives.
And besides the MSM, France seems close to changing its government somehow between elections. The UK government is weak and about to be replaced. The whole EU has been in a slow-motion crisis for years now, and Italy seems to be the latest to try to push it to a head. Merkel is retiring soon and Germany has a weak coalition government among parties who really don’t want to be there. Trump just lost his midterms and Wall Street is crashing and doesn’t believe Trump’s tweets about a China deal.
Maybe its not a bad time for that big shove, So, everyone, one ….. two …… three….

“Europe’s ‘Free World’ Impostors Are Falling — German, French and British Leaders on the Brink”
“The British Parliament yesterday found the Government of Theresa May in contempt of Parliament, for refusing to turn over the Legal Advice from the Attorney General on the legal impact of Prime Minister May’s phony Brexit deal, which leaves Britain in the Custom’s Union and does not resolve the difficult issue of the border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. The Parliament also ruled that the Parliament, not the Prime Minister, shall determine what steps to take if her Brexit deal is voted down next Tuesday in the Parliamentary vote, as it is expected it will. May’s government, as the old English nursery rhyme goes, is about to have a great fall, with no hope that all the King’s Horses and all the King’s Men can put it together again. The problem is, that she will likely be replaced with somebody as crazy as Boris Johnson as the Tory party leader, although a new general election could result from the chaos, probably bringing in Jeremy Corbin and the Labour Party.

All the “recent” turmoil in the world shows that regular humans want a change from the existing government power structures. These “changes” always seem temporary and are based upon a new way to structure debt.
Greece is an example. I like metaphors and analogy when wrestling with all these happenings and what needs to happen for a better outcome. Imagine if someone kicked in your front door and drug in one of those garden sprinkler hoses that are kinda flat and have a zillion little holes in them and it’s ruining your home. Do you call all your friends to come over and put tape on all those squirting holes? No, you shut off the valve at the sillcock outside and make sure it’s secure. What I’m saying is that the “World’s Sillcock” is central banking. All the problems, the worst ones anyway, are debt financed by this system. Until this “currency” system is replaced by real money based upon production of real capital (profit), NOTHING will really change.
ALWAYS follow the money. This transition is starting to happen in resource trades and types of “international barter” and person to person. Central banking can end with a whimper or bang. I know which I prefer.
If the US can’t have Canadian authorities arrest someone like this at the Vancouver airport, they’ll insist that American law enforcement or military be present in Canada to protect the USA. Not that that comes up all the time or anything. (It does, all the time.)

Moscow warns Cyprus against allowing US military to deploy on island
https://www.rt.com/newsline/445674-russia-cyprus-us-military/
“Moscow will have to take response measures in case of a military build-up by the US in Cyprus, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday. According to information from different sources, Washington is taking actions to ensure the possibility of building up its military presence in Cyprus, she said. Such activity is aimed at countering “the growing Russian influence in the region in light of the successful implementation of the operation of the Russian Aerospace Force in Syria,” TASS quoted the spokeswoman as saying. The further militarization of the island and its involvement in the implementation of American and NATO plans “will inevitably lead to dangerous and destabilizing consequences for Cyprus itself,” Zakharova noted. “Moscow cannot but take into consideration the anti-Russian background of these schemes. We will have to take response measures in case of their implementation,” she added.”
As I speculated earlier, the recent spat of provocations by the zpc/nwo are part of a new level of aggressive moves by them. The arrest of the Chinese national by israel’s canada colonials being part of this, as well.
Paris abandons fuel tax hike after sweeping protests – French PM
https://www.rt.com/news/445681-france-abandons-tax-hike-protests/
“The French government says it has dropped the fuel tax hike plan that has sparked massive Yellow Vests protests and eventually got suspended with a half-year moratorium Tuesday – at least for the 2019 budget.
While protesters welcomed the government’s attempt to defuse tension, it is unlikely to actually pull the plug on a wide-ranging social movement that has incorporated different causes such as the demand to raise taxes on the rich, increase in the minimum wage and overturn a controversial educational reform.”

In memory of That Good Man Bush 41 and dogs barking some may find enlightening an essay https://www.counterpunch.org/2018/11/26/remembering-alger-hiss-in-the-age-of-russia-gate/

I myself found the first essay quite in accord with my own memories of some of the events – there was then in the late 40’s and all of the 1950 in the Land of The Free an awful looming threat from the political police, and within the technical limits of those days, much snooping and surveilance…and of course this is now simply a repeat that dips and struggles into an absurd terror…

About the arrest of the Chinese in Canada… shocking, of course, but considering all the convenient airplane crashes… Not only being in a “foreign” country is dangerous now, but flying itself… There one is, trapped for a time in a known aluminum tube that’s easy for a nazi state to destroy… Is now frankly nuts to fly commercial airplanes…
What nazi state would that be? You tell me… (read that first essay)

US *notifies* Turkey it intends to enter the Black Sea.
But the Kerch Strait incident arose from Ukraine failing the same procedure with Russia per Sea of Azov.
Cute.
The potential for major escalation in the Black Sea between the United States and Russia just grew significantly hotter as the US military has formally notified Turkey that it plans to sail a warship into the Black Sea for the first time in a month.

As I have mentioned before, the name is a very ancient Spartan (Doric) name. Mayans are said to have used it as one of the names borrowed from visiting Minoans and Pelasgic Greeks before them. Mayan name as are other Greek names somewhat butchered but recognizable.
Germans successfully butchered that name from Latin Nicolaus to Niclaus to Claus.
Ukrainians call it Mykola, undoubtedly borrowed from Polish Mikołaj.

“Greece” will wipe out the Macedonian language from the UN. According to greeks, it should be “Slavic”.
“Happy name day”?? Ironic to say the least. Christian/spiritual principles are a code to live by, not to quote and then do exactly the opposite. Seems theyve become enamoured of their sheep’s clothing. Modern Greece is nothing more than a pathetic marionette, a bully and a brute, propped up on others’ history, identity, culture, and money, living a lie.
My friend, the only language in Macedonia is Greek and it has been for thousands of years. Vardarska uses language given to you by Bulgars (per Bulgarian TV) do you want the link? Here it is anyway, can you even read cyrylic? Ана Кочева: Македонците зборуваат западно бугарски дијалект:

Its like all the “alt” websites that tell a person how the NYTimes lies, then posts links to NY Times articles when it suits them.
Btw. your tone is extremely unpleasant. I hope the mods are noticing because I do not want to go there.
In every exchange Ive had with you, you always miss the point.
You provide links that ultimately justify an aggression you’re carrying out. An aggression you never address, and that affects all Macedonian’s basic freedoms worldwide.

“The Little Book of Big Greek Lies”;
BIG Greek Lie no. 1 Modern Greeks are Direct Descendents of the Ancient Greeks
2. The Koine Language is Greek
3. The Ancient “Greek Gods” were Greek
4. There is no Such Thing as a Macedonian
5. Greece is an ethnically Homogenous Nation
8. Tito Created the Macedonian nation ( esp. rich as the Macedonians are an ethnic group, as opposed to a nationality like modern Greeks, Americans, Canadians etc.
11. Macedonian Monks Kiril i Metodi are Greek
12. The Macedonian language does not exist
20. Macedonia was liberated in 1912/13, etc. etc.
There is no ethnic Macedonian originating from Greece today who does not know what “Greece” and “Hellenism” means to the Macedonian people. Macedonians know exactly how Greece was created and how Greeks were made out of Macedonians. One must look no further than their own village or family to see the process of “Hellenization” at work.
Back in Greece I grew up with children whose relatives were Macedonians, today these same children
as grown adults swear they are Greeks related to the “ancient Greeks”. The problem is while Greeks are created out of Macedonians, the Macedonians are being robbed of their heritage and identity. The Greeks see no problem with Macedonians being forced to accept an artificially imposed identity but will not accept the fact that Macedonians exist… R. Stefov.

Russian subs could surface in the Gulf of Mexico and shock America, analyst cautions
http://tass.com/defense/1034717
“Our submarines, too, might have surfaced suddenly some place in the Gulf of Mexico to shock America. We have the corresponding forces of our submarine fleet there. We do not do that for the simple reason our purpose is not to show off in such a silly way, but to cope with the assigned tasks,” Korotchenko said. (Editor-in-chief of Russia’s National Defense magazine) He warned that attempts at intimidating Russia were “useless and senseless.”
Well, that’s the purpose of a military man who has brain, to use it in a logical way.
For the military analysts among us (a group to which I don’t belong). Maybe this is affecting the increased maritime activity today and yesterday? Canada has assumed command, from the Saudi Naval Forces, over the Combined Task Force 150, multinational naval task force. This is a naval coalition which promotes “security and stability in the International waters of the Middle East region.”
https://www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/news/2018/12/canada-assumes-command-of-multinational-naval-task-force.html
Another couple of questions here. (Mattis was in Canada today too meeting with Defence Minister Sajjan about Operation Impact in Iraq, aimed at eliminating Daesh.) If the Axis of Kindness, as the Saker calls them, planned to use that multinational naval force to execute false flags against Russia or Russian allies in the Middle East, I can see the strong neocon reaction with the Canadian commander taking charge. (Sidebar: The second in command in Canada’s military was a navy guy and was removed from his post due to suspicions he leaked info about a shipbuilding deal. He is currently defending himself in the courts. This happened in the waning days of the Obama administration and smells of US State Department interference.) Otherwise, what’s the big deal here? Canada’s Navy is excellent for national defense but not much of a game changer beyond that, is it? Unless there is a section of the US Navy that is resisting the call to war. They would naturally be in alignment with the Royal Canadian Navy, I suppose? And that would cause an extreme reaction, wouldn’t it? Where’s Mattis in all this anyway? Who’s in charge of the US Navy these days?
One more question for the military analysts: if the recent extreme behaviour of the U.S. administration is a result of their insecurity about not having full control over the U.S. Navy, then who exactly would be in charge of the part of the U.S. Navy that acts in defiance of the administration? Do they have political representation? Just thinking about it makes me start to hyperventilate. Is there any overarching authority in place there anymore? If there is no actual political body or apparatus in control, then what is this exactly? Is there any governance or is it all a facade?
I had an ‘a-ha!’ moment. There’s the Trilateral Commission. And maybe one or more of those think-tanks?

People on wall street will notice that this has made billions of dollars evaporate as the stock market crashes. They will not be amused.
The market was crashing in the weeks before the summit, and “trade tensions” were the regularly cited reason. Then, Trump talked the market up a bit with his pre-G20 talk promising that China would capitulate on trade and that everything would be hunky-dory. Then, Trump announced victory after he met with China, and the market went up for a day until everyone noticed that the Chinese weren’t saying the same thing. Turns out the timespan for believing a Trump tweet is down to about 24 hours. Then the market crashed some more.
The markets were closed on Wednesday for War Criminal Memorial Day, then crashed some more on the news of this arrest. The Wall Street Journal (Murdoch pro-Trump rag) talked the markets back up a bit with a vague story that said the Fed won’t keep raising rates.
Today the markets are falling again.
Wall St will not be amused.

The Power of Negative Thinking Before During And After the G20 is the title of a presentation by raised-in-Mexico (no gringo accent!) Ibero-American Editor of the Executive Intelligence Review which I watched last weekend.
There were a number of interesting particulars in there about the Iberian Peninsula….North Africa……….. and a more fundamental issue of method I thought worthy of posting.
That Power of Negative Thinking was delivered live in Manhattan this past Saturday by EIR Editor Dennis Small, freshly returned from Madrid, Lisbon and various Spanish and Portugese ports integral to the Maritime New Silk Road.
“This is not a travelogue, “ says Dennis…”but if you want I will show you pictures of the paella later, after my presentation.”
The purpose was not paella, but rather to organize intellectual/technical elites of the Iberian Peninsula in the method that led to China’s adoption of a LaRouchian-Socratic Idea ….OBOR…. “because local, small solutions will not work, you have to kick over the geopolitical chessboard and change everything, top down.”
“Far more high level people in Spain and Portugal were aware of the New Silk Road implications for their nations (and Northern Africa!) than we realized before we went there, the first time in many years to Spain and the first time ever to Portugal.” Dennis reports:
https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=904
Some highlights, cued up with maps and such, for the short on time First…1-4 The Strategic Background to the Iberian Peninsula Tour:
1) What People Really Didn’t Get…2 things: https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=1201
…and how do you get people to think, and overcome their prejudices?
2) The Issue of Russia: https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=1747
3) An argument for NOT keeping your “powder dry”…but continually using it and bringing up more…to the front lines of the political skirmishing:
https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=1942
…”slam the enemy hard”, says Dennis…”and then come up with new powder.”
4) Then Xi and Putin met with Prime Minister Modi of India
https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=2067 and “The interesting thing was what Putin had to say……”
And “This was the perspective begun by Evgeni Primakov……who had to turn his plane to the US around when VP Al Gore called and said the NATO bombing of Serbia had begun.”
On to Portugal:
5) The Portugese Port of Sines, the furthest west terminal of the European portion of the World Landbridge….the closest European Atlantic port to Africa and Ibero-America
https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=2406
“We have to be involved in this..we Portugese have the sea in our DNA.” Macao…Portugese in China…etc
Then Spain:
6) The second stop Valencia, Spain on the Mediterranean, the largest container port in the Mediterranean, where Dennis found much more positivity from port people than he ever expected from the pessismistic political class of Spain:
https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=2749
Top people from the Port Of Valencia told Dennis: “We know what this is. We’ve been involved with China for 2,000 years (Old Silk Road….lol) . But you also have to look at our Mediterranean Mirror Image….the North Coast of Africa. The only way you can solve the problem of migration and terrorism coming out of Africa is by developing Africa.”…which is what Dennis went there to say…but they said it to him.
7) “The “Queremos Corredor” street Organizing in Valencia
https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=2934
…..for connecting The Port of Valencia to The Port of Sagunto by underground tunnel to make them into a single port….which the Spaniards said will take Valencia from # 6 in Europe to # 3 in combination with Sagunto…..But that’s not the only tunnel the Spanish Port People have in mind: Gibraltar to Tangier.”
Aside: (I’d be drafting a little eviction notice for QE II or her successor…while I was at it, if I were a Spanish nationalist. Empires come and go, ya know….)
Like the Bering Tunnel….the engineering has been done…except for seismic zone consideration (significant!) at Gibraltar…”Tunnel or Bridge” which has to be settled….Bridge is my quess…
8) Dennis: “When we left Valencia, we went to Madrid. One of the reasons we went to Madrid is that my wife and I had to ride on a high speed train, and As I explained to our hosts in Madrid, we don’t have any in the United States. “ ….”WHAT?”, our hosts couldn’t believe us.
https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=3148
“Spain, after China, is the second country in the world in total kilometers of high speed rail.”
Another choice for riding a high speed train, for Americans, says Dennis, “…..would be Tangiers. Because while there is no high speed rail in the US, there is now a high speed rail line connecting Tangiers and Casablanca, as of last month.”
The map of that connection, for those short on time: https://youtu.be/DaPtBQp1HeA?t=3245
9) And WHAT ABOUT the US??? “Latin America has high speed rail because the Chinese are helping the Panamanians build a line from Panama City to David, the Capital of Chiriqui Province….”
Hey, Dennis is right:
https://www.bing.com/news/search?q=High+Speed+Rail+From+Panama+City+To+David+In+Chiriqui+Province&qpvt=High+Speed+rail+from+Panama+City+to+David+in+Chiriqui+Province&FORM=EWRE
Me: Looks like The Gringos Had Better Have a “Sputnik Reaction” and get off their asses pretty damn quick…or in a few decades “The Caravans” could be headed South……. instead of North. LOL.
“Where there is no vision, The People Perish.” Proverbs 29:18
Or, “Take Gas”…as they say at NASCAR races…..while the competition whizzes by and “laps” them.
amarynth asked for a Frenchman to speak up about the Yellow Vest Movement.
Timothe Vorgenns reporting from France:
https://youtu.be/uNs3rv40z-I
I don’t endorse Henrik (the host interviewing Timothe) or his haircut……(not my style) because I don’t know him yet…..although so far…no other alarm bells…
… he appears level headed … not including the hair
Aah, Henrik from RedIce Creations .. been around in the alternative community since Pa fell off the Bus. Initially his content was more esoteric and then changed to … well, I don’t know if it is white supremacist or something milder or something worse or good or bad – I don’t know that world or their labels – proEuropean he calls it. But always a good interviewer and a professional and engaging speaker – rich in content. https://redice.tv/
Looks like a real grassroots movement, but then again, I thought Egypt was a real grassroots movement, and Occupy.
I think at this stage that is still is a real grassroots uprising–which is good—but the I am equally sure that there are currently many cliques watching and plotting how to hijack the energy to their own particular ideology.
What comes out of this subsequently will be most interesting as to which direction France will start to move. I myself have faith in the masses, of whatever political stripe, they do understand the nitty-gritty of life and generally have immense courage to persevere once the decision is made and the optimum direction of movement is made clear.
Chris Hedges has been saying consistently that the only thing that will change the current trajectory is consistent, massive and ongoing street action – everywhere.

Trump to Nominate State Department Spokeswoman as New US Envoy to UN – Reports
https://sputniknews.com/us/201812071070465061-usa-un-trump-nauert-envoy-nominee/
“The White House views the former Fox News host as a capable advocate for the Trump administration’s foreign policy, who could replace outgoing UN Ambassador Nikki Haley, media report said.”
She inspires the same sort of feelings that lifting the lid of a trash can and finding it full of maggots does.
Lol apt description for the feelings induced by this stooge. It will feel like Nikki never left. One bimbo down, another bimbo coming right up, and if the new one goes down, theirs an endless reserve of bimbos to select from.
Nikki Haley To Be Replaced By Blonde Version Of Nikki Haley
https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2018/12/07/nikki-haley-to-be-replaced-by-blonde-version-of-nikki-haley/
“Nauert is perfectly qualified for the job of UN Ambassador, because all that job requires is being a sociopathic war pig. She’s already been doing that.”
….
“The problem with most of the opposition to Trump is that they’re not interested in waking up, they’re interested in removing an annoying wrinkle in their bedsheets so that they can go back to sleep. They don’t care about the monstrous acts of violence that are inflicted upon human beings on the other side of the globe in their name, so they focus on irrelevant nonsense like whether or not Heather Nauert is qualified to read from the same imperialist script that was read by Haley, Samantha Power and Susan Rice.”
Russia & Venezuela sign $5bn investment contracts ‘to increase oil production’ – Maduro
https://www.rt.com/business/445768-russia-venezuela-investments-oil/
“Contracts have been signed to guarantee investments for $5 billion to increase oil production with Russian partners of joint ventures,” Maduro said.
In addition, an investment of more than $1 million was agreed for mining production in Venezuela, mainly of gold, according to Maduro, who has been on an official state visit to Moscow since Tuesday.
Russia and Venezuela run many joint projects in the energy, agricultural, geological, pharmaceutical, technology, and defense sectors. Russia’s investment in Venezuela exceeds $4 billion, according to TASS.”
Fantastic Calendars Ioan !!!
Links at the bottom of last Cafe

I would like to print them and also for Xmas presents, any info as to the best way to do this, paper, size etc ?
Big Hugs and Big Thanks
Ras
Thank you Raskolnikov, I’m glad you like it and hopefully others too. The Cafe calendars are now here in the cafe, on the right side up on the page. The Orthodox calendar is on the main page on the right side. Both can be downloaded freely for your use. They are in A3 format, for printing, however you’ll need to ask Amarynth to send you the larger file but give it a try with this smaller file, it may be good also for printing. As for paper : Glossy printing paper. (not photo paper)
Both Cafe calendars size : 420,03 mm X 346,96 mm
Orthodox calendar size : 297,01 mm X 420,03 mm
Hope, it helped !
rectification : only the Othodox calendar is in A3 format, the others (Cafe claendars) are larger as described above.
I’ll have them for download in the saker.community hopefully still today Running a little late here with tasks.
There is another surprise coming from ioan :-) soon …,
And those hats. They are for me … (I think so anyways and will keep thinking so even if they are not).
These will look nice printed on not the totally shiny photo paper, but the next one down .. not totally matt but with a little shine.,
Yes, they are. The story of those hats comes from your own little story about hats, written earlier in the Community Cooperative, so there from comes the idea.
Yes, I agree with Ras, wonderful café images, ioan, and thanks to all involved in the making and delivery.
And, special thanks to Auslander who was so kind to make those photos in Sevastopol, in his new home city. St. Nikolas The Miracle Worker church was built after the 1854-1855 war as a monument to the Russian dead from that war in Sevastopol. Also thanks for little-dragon for the photo. These photos are to be seen on the Russian Orthodox Calendar 2019.
Also many thanks to the Saker, Herb, Amarynth and Kent for their great support and help. Great folks you are !
Yes, beautiful work, indeed guys. Congrats.

‘Hired Gun’ No More: Pakistani PM Refuses to Fight US’ War
https://sputniknews.com/asia/201812071070489057-pakistan-hired-gun/
“In an interview with the Washington Post, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan has slammed the previous Pakistani administration’s decision to join the American war against the Taliban in Afghanistan, saying it has cost the country “human lives, devastation of tribal areas, and dignity”. He added that he would like to have proper relations with the US, but stressed that he will not allow Pakistan to be a “hired gun [which is] given money to fight someone else’s war”.
He brought up Pakistan’s relations with China as a positive example as opposed to “one-dimensional” relationship with Washington.
“It’s a trade relationship between two countries. We want a similar relationship with the US”, he said.”
Farewell to the Dollar? India Reportedly Ditches US Currency to Buy Iranian Oil
https://sputniknews.com/business/201812071070479951-india-dollar-iranian-oil/
“India has signed an agreement with Iran to pay for its crude oil in national currency instead of dollars the Business Standard newspaper reported, citing an anonymous source familiar with the move.
The memorandum of understanding between the countries, which cemented the decision to ditch dollars in the oil trade, was signed by Tehran and Delhi on 5 November 2018, when the US announced new sanctions against Iran. It’s notable that on the same day, Washington issued temporary waivers to 8 countries, including India, allowing them to buy Iranian oil without fear of being sanctioned.
According to the Business Standard’s source, money for the Iranian crude will be transferred to a National Iranian Oil Co (NIOC) bank account at the Indian UCO Bank. What is more, half of this money is set to be spent on exports of Indian goods to Iran.
India is the second biggest importer of Iranian crude, with China occupying first place. The country has reportedly limited its oil imports from the Islamic Republic from 452,000 down to 300,000 barrels per day to meet the conditions of the 180-day US waiver.
The US imposed a new round of sanctions against Iran on November 5, following Washington’s withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Sanctions affected the country’s banking, energy, and shipping sectors. The US allowed 8 countries to continue buying Iranian oil for 6 months — Greece, India, Italy, China, Taiwan, Turkey, South Korea, and Japan.”
‘Arrogant jingoist policy’: Lavrov blasts Washington’s request to arrest Huawei CFO
https://www.rt.com/news/445864-lavrov-us-huawei-arrest/
“Washington’s “revolting” policy of stretching its own criminal laws to other countries’ territories has to end, Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said as Huawei’s top executive faces extradition to the US.
Lavrov slammed America’s habit of applying its laws “extraterritorially” and dubbed it “revolting to the vast majority of normal states and normal people.”
Talking to reporters at an OSCE event in Milan, Lavrov said that Washington’s approach has no support in the world and alienates the US’ own partners.
“It’s an arrogant, jingoist policy no one accepts. It already sparks rejection even amongst the US’ closest allies. It has to end.”
The Foreign Ministry’s [China] spokesperson, Geng Shuang, demanded that Washington and Ottawa clarify the reasons behind the executive’s detention and “immediately” release her. Chinese officials also said that the arrest itself “seriously harmed the human rights of the victim.”
If Zuckerman from FB is to travel abroad, then he should probably consult Henry Kissinger’s lawyers for advice on which countries he should avoid.

On This 77th Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day………… let us resolve to prosecute the PNAC Zio-NAZI traitors and their “New Pearl Harbor” Mind Control Crime Against Humanity of Sept 11, 2001.
While we are at it , we might temper our self-righteous indignation at Imperial Japan which was enticed and goaded into the Opening Act of That Horrid Play…..by our own authors of it, along with their British Empire mentors.
London Paul, in today’s Sirius Report Podcast does not mention Pearl Harbor….but I do, because I am all for airing dirty imperial laundry….rather than hiding it under the bed.
Paul’s 40 minute podcast today was mostly (but not all) continued exasperation with Trump’s foreign policy craziness in the hands of Bolton et al.
If Flynn Is Back In and the Q Army is inspired….. they are nearly 100% focused only on FISA DeClass Brings Down The Democrats’ House and Huber Announcing Crimes of the Clinton Foundation and Deep State Treason…..moved from Dec 5 because of the Demise of Opium Poppy Bush…to Dec 13.
The Q Army around the world (did you catch the large Q on the t-shirt of the Yellow Vest protestor in Paris???) are not worried about the absolute foreign policy mess the Trump Administration is in. Bolton running amuck, Pompeo Pomposity, Kiddnapping Foreign Nationals With Canada’s Help…..or anything, for that matter…other than The Donald’s Legal Struggle With the Deep State.
Although more and more of them admit they are sometimes wondering if he isn’t part of it:

Like Canada’s Red Pill Billy Joyce.
Yeah, as long as more characters like Billy (who looks like an earnest, well fed beaver from the Northern Territories) go to the trouble of trying to figure the world out….and don’t do too terribly at it…and share their efforts…..THAT is worth reporting. Because it IS a NEW FACTOR in world politics and political culture…… like it or not, y’all!
Whereas uttering some one else’s Do Nothing Smug Formulation…one unoriginally overheard and then repeated from another do very little or practically nothing cynic…….well…that’s just the same old same old Nothing Going Nowhere, Fast…..Slow Wheel-spinning.
Less interesting, by far, than Billy Beaver.
On this Special Historical Day, Billy deserves a mention, because his show’s opening frames have video of the Pearl Harbor attack # 1……AND # 2.
Putin also deserves a mention, because of ONE PHRASE…..he uttered recently, very briefly (DId you catch it????) …..something that tells me not to drop the Demons, Psychopaths and Cannibals “stretto” I have been weaving in to my comments, on occasion, of late.
“……those who EAT BABIES…..”…… is what I heard Putin utter, very recently. Did you catch THAT?? I don’t think his utterances are all that coincidental, mind you. So you might tuck that little note in the back of your mind for future reference. And I’ll get back to it another day.
And I will finish what Paul had to say about what Putin did in Argentina last weekend….later today….the only optimism in his 40 minutes was the last few minutes on the most positive thing that happened in Buenos Aires……naturally the most ignored…most unreported thing, as well.
Preview: Of the Four Powers LaRouche has spoken of since about 2000 Russia, China, India and the USA…..Three of Them Are now Coming Along Quite Nicely!
The first three.
Hey, “Three out of four ain’t bad!” LOL.

The London Paul report on What Putin Did That Was More Significant than anything else that happened in Buenos Aires……will ……just have to wait. Yes, it is also part of the Worldwide Mass Strike…..but as long as they keep their heads…..out of Empire Ideas…….like Jacobin Falling Blades….NO ONE does “La Revolucion” better than The French!
THE YELLOW VESTS: A Mass Strike In France? Interview with Jacques Cheminade:

“All political parties are disoriented and don’t know what to do about it.”
The Convergence of Opposites: “Left union forces in France are protecting right oriented protestors from agent provocateurs who want the demonstrations to descend into senseless violence.”
Question: “From your experience of forty years working for the emergence of a new, just economic order…..how do you see this process in that forty five year history….and what steps have to be taken to secure a victory in that fight??”
Jacques Cheminade: “If we expose the Empire, those that want to dominate the world from their own Treasure Island, and we expose them from both sides of the Atlantic…then,…..inspired by what is happening in the Pacific, in China and other places, more than ever, then we have the World, and it’s Our Moment in History.”

US Man Who Drove Into Protesters at White Supremacist Rally Guilty of Murder
https://sputniknews.com/us/201812081070500277-Man-Drove-Car-Protesters-Virginia-Convicted-Murder/
“White supremacist James Fields has been found guilty of first-degree murder for the August 12, 2017, death of Heather Heyer, along with nine other charges.
Fields could face life in prison or even the death penalty. He was found guilty of one count of first-degree murder, five counts of malicious wounding, three counts of aggravated malicious wounding and one count of hit and run. If given the maximum sentence for each charge, he could face as many as six life sentences and an additional 70 years in prison.
Fields also faces 28 counts of hate crime acts causing bodily injuring and involving an attempt to kill, one count of racially motivated violent interference with a federally protected activity and one count of a hate crime act resulting in the death of Heyer, Sputnik has reported.
The potential for Fields to be given the death penalty stems from his federal charges. The related trial is set to begin after his state trial. The maximum punishment Fields could receive if convicted of the state-level charges is life in prison.
The day prior to the attack, Fields also allegedly sent his family memes featuring Adolf Hitler and alluding to violence against leftists.
Heard calls Fields made to his mom from jail referring to Heather Heyer’s mom:
Fields: “She’s one of those anti-white Communists.”
Mom: “She lost her daughter.”
“It doesn’t fucking matter. She’s a Communist.”
“Stop talking.”
“It isn’t up for questioning. She’s the enemy, Mother.”

Note to self … even your phone calls from prison to your mother will be monitored and used against you. Just pretend you are in an old Soviet prison and act and talk accordingly.
All is not lost, though, trump will probably pardon fields. Then aipac and wacl will fund and groom the boy to take the reins when trump retires in 2024.

‘Dumb as a rock’ & ‘lazy as hell’: Trump destroys Rex Tillerson in tweet praising Pompeo
https://www.rt.com/usa/445900-trump-destroys-tillerson-tweet-pompeo/
“Mike Pompeo is doing a great job, I am very proud of him. His predecessor, Rex Tillerson, didn’t have the mental capacity needed. He was dumb as a rock and I couldn’t get rid of him fast enough. He was lazy as hell. Now it is a whole new ballgame, great spirit at State!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 7, 2018
Just two years ago, however,
I have chosen one of the truly great business leaders of the world, Rex Tillerson, Chairman and CEO of ExxonMobil, to be Secretary of State.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 13, 2016
What happened? Most likely, Tillerson’s interview with CBS, which aired Thursday,
“What’s challenging for me … is to go to work for a man who is pretty undisciplined, doesn’t like to read, doesn’t read briefing reports, doesn’t like to get into the details of a lot of things,” Tillerson told CBS News’ Bob Schieffer. “We are starkly different in our styles, we did not have a common value system.”
“I’d have to say to him, ‘Mr. President, I understand what you wanna do, but you can’t do it that way. It violates the law, it violates treaty.’ He got really frustrated,” Tillerson said. “I think he grew tired of me being the guy who told him, ‘You can’t do that.’”
The israeli quisling pompeo, 100% neocon, is more like trump than tillerson. Both trump and pompeo represent likud in israel’s pindo colonial regime, tillerson is apparently less fanatically loyal to zionazia, and likely was always intended to be an interim sos. They used him to streamline the state dept bureaucracy and soften foreign objections to the likud style unilateralism slated to run israel’s pindo colony. IE: this likud lot doesn’t have much use for the finer art of negotiation, they simply bully and terrorize. The Jewish mafia organised crime behaviour adapted to politics and international relations.
The Mafia was very Italian and very Catholic.
“The Mafia was very Italian and very Catholic.”
The operative term here being “was”. But I understand your reasons for insisting “it’s not us, it’s them”. Used to encounter similar nonsense when writing about Jewish zionism on pro-zionist sites, where commenters would line up and spam insistence that it is Christian zionists running the zio-show. :-D The Italian/Catholic mafia became a subsidiary of the Jewish mafia decades ago.
Do you have evidence to back that up (that somehow the Italian mafia submits to the Jewish one?) Because it seems to me the two are very much in conflict with each other. It does appear that the Jewish mafia can print money and the Italian mafia can’t.
You just have to look at the historical development of gambling in Nevada, where all the original bag-men were Jewish and the muscle was Italian. I would describe the two as ‘irretrievably intermeshed’ by now, rather than arguing which is in the boss position. The two factions brought different skills to the enterprise, worked together and were both indispensable to the nascent operation.
BTW, I am not promoting gambling at all here, not being that type of gambler myself, just using terms of reference that I am familiar with.
Not to be obnoxious, but what evidence is there of the two being ‘irretrievably intermixed’?
A secondary part of these arguments is the tendency to reduce all power dynamics on the planet to the Zionists/Jewish faction being in control of everything. The Saker is emphatic that the old Anglo guard still has plenty of power. The Chinese, Russians and Iranians are all presumed to have at least some power to confound Zionist/Jewish interests, so the picture is more complex than strictly ‘Zionist über alles.’
‘Not to be obnoxious, but what evidence is there of the two being ‘irretrievably intermixed’?’
None whatever, if you are not going to take my knowledge of the industry at face value. ‘irretrievably intermeshed’ is my choice of a descriptor (language) of what I know to be true from my own experience.
If that does not satisfy you then you will have to do your own digging as I won’t be doing it for you, having no need of proof beyond my own knowledge already acquired on the ground, long ago.
Do your own spadework, and good luck. Google is not your friend.
(the remainder of your comment is a distraction from the original assertion and counter assertion–red herrings and appeals to authority? not even a blip on the horizon for me.)
Fair enough, your personal experience is your evidence. I was cleverly using a red herring and assertion to authority to highlight this tendency for all discussions about power on this blog to become a discussion about Zionist power. (“The only ones who have true power are Zionists therefore any conversation about power must be about Zionists.”) So devious, I know! :-) But I am actually interested in the range and scope of Italian Catholic affiliated Mafia power. Using the term Mafia in a formal way, not as a broader descriptor. Perhaps a subject to be raised another day, in another thread, in another way.
Just wanted to post this here, even though I’m shi’i, to remind everyone the Sunnis are not Wahhabi’s, and the Wahhabi’s are not Sunni. Because the world will collapse down on the Wahhabi’s soon, inshAllah, and I want the world to not equate the Sunnis to the Wahhabi’s. It’s unfair to pair them with the blood thirsty Wahhabi cult. Even though many Wahhabi preachers masquerade as Sunnis, so they can influence a larger population with their deviant beliefs. Because of this some Sunnis end up being influenced by Wahhabi thought. Here is a Sunni shaykh from Iraq talking about some of the atrocities committed by daesh on the Sunnis, it’s from 4 years ago, and has subs.

In addition, take it or leave it, here is a sample of Canada’s media coverage of the Huawei arrest, for those who are interested. A subtle ‘blame it on the Russians’ inference that made me laugh out loud.
https://youtu.be/OzCKON8KT2E
Mr. Paul Craig Roberts has a post up about how 1/3rd of Americans have “caught on.” It links to an article which refers to a poll which asked whether American elites had profited following 9/11 and whether people thought that they should be prosecuted for the following wars.
Mr. Roberts would have liked my answers to those poll questions, I’d be in the group that has ‘caught on’ in his view.
I also presume that Mr. Roberts would not have liked the fact that I had ‘caught on’ back when he was a high government official in the Reagan Administration as I also would have thought that a lot of his White House colleagues at that time should have been criminally prosecuted. Not Mr. Roberts himself, or at least I can’t think of any specific reasons. But for many of his colleagues with whom he probably shook hands with and patted on the back at fancy Inaugural balls, I’d have gladly seen them prosecuted and sent to prison. I feel that most of what is now wrong with America began back when Reagan was President and Mr. Roberts was in the Treasury.
Glad to see at least that Mr. Roberts has caught on over the years. Even though he’d have called me a Dang Hippy and cussed me back in the days when I was catching on and he was serving Wall Street. But its always good to have someone join us.
US-Led Coalition Strikes Hajin, Local Hospital Completely Destroyed – Reports
https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/201812071070497703-syria-hajin-us-led-coalition-strikes-hospital-damage/
“The Friday airstrikes of the US-led Coalition have completely destroyed a hospital in the Syrian city of Hajin in the eastern Deir ez-Zor province, Ikhbariya broadcaster reported.
SANA and the Ikhbariya broadcaster reported earlier on Friday that eight more civilians were killed in recent airstrikes on Hajin. All of the killed civilians were reportedly members of one family.
The US-led coalition regularly carries out airstrikes in eastern Deir ez-Zor province, and has recently been concentrating its air power on Hajin.
On Saturday, the SANA news agency reported that the coalition’s airstrikes hit the al-Buqa village near the town of Hajin in the province of Deir ez-Zor leaving 40 civilians dead.”

“For the first time since the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) launched “Operation Northern Shield”, their air force has been spotted along the Syrian-Lebanese border.
According to a military source in Damascus, Israeli warplanes were observed flying along the Syrian-Lebanese border this evening before they finally turned back towards Upper Galilee.
The military source said that the Israeli warplanes had entered Lebanon’s Nabatieh Governorate from Upper Galilee earlier today before they moved towards the Syrian border from the Beqa’a Valley.
The Israeli Air Force often takes this flight path when they bomb Syrian government installations inside the Homs and Damascus provinces.
However, it is worth noting, the Israeli Air Force does conduct a number of flights along the border to monitor the activity between Lebanon and Syria.”
They continue their probing.
Russian MoD Has Undeniable Evidence of Chemical Shelling of Aleppo by Militants
https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/201812071070497591-syria-usa-russia-militants-aleppo-chemical-weapons/
“US State Department remarks made on Aleppo is an attempt to whitewash actions of terrorists in Idlib, Russian Defense Ministry said in a statement on Friday.
According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the supply schedule of chemical weapons by the Western special services to the terrorists in Syria is synchronized with State Department’s statements.
“The statement by the US State Department is nothing more than an attempt to whitewash the international terrorists operating in Idlib and associated with the White Helmets pseudo-rescuers, who have put their Western patrons in a bad spotlight with their provocation,” the Russian military said in a statement.
“The Russian side has irrefutable evidence of the use of munitions filled with toxic agents against the civilian population on November 24, 2018 in Aleppo,” the statement stressed.
The Russian Defense Ministry does not rule out that the US State Department’s allegations about the recent toxic chemicals attack in Syria’s Aleppo are aimed at distracting the public attention from the crimes of the US aviation in the east of the Middle Eastern country where dozens of civilians die every day.
“We do not rule out that the ‘loud’ statements of the US State Department are aimed at switching the public attention from the crimes of the US aviation in the east of Syria where the aviation has been scouring the settlements in the Hajin area leading to the killing of dozens of civilians,” the statement pointed out.
The Russian military recalled that it had been informing the public about the deliveries of toxic chemicals to terrorists and the White Helmets, affiliated with them, by the western states’ security services over the past six months.
“The peaks of these deliveries were synchronized with the bold statements of the US State Department and other US agencies about the readiness to deal a missile strike on Syria in case of the alleged use of chemical weapons by the government,” the statement read.
On November 24, militants from terrorist groups fired chlorine-filled shells at the residential neighborhoods of Aleppo al-Khalidiye and Al Zahraa as well as at the Nile Street. Sources in al-Razi Hospital and the Aleppo University Hospital told the SANA news agency that 107 civilians, suffering from asphyxiation, had been admitted to them. Some of the injured individuals have been taken to intensive care units. There were at least four children among those hospitalized.
Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said on October 31 that the terrorists of the Islamic Party of Turkestan had transferred 20 tanks with 10 liters of chlorine each to Syria on October 27 to carry out provocations.
Moreover, the Russian military warned repeatedly in the days and weeks leading up to the incident that the White Helmets were planning to stage a fake chemical weapons attack in the same area in a false flag operation aimed at drawing western retaliation against the Syrian government.”
Renewed israeli air attacks and probing activity is connected to their american and brit colonies now trying to blame Syria/Russia for their cw attack on Aleppo. Sounds like israel ordered its gofers to prepare another attack on Syria?
US seeks to frustrate OPCW probe into Aleppo chemical attack — Russian Defense Ministry
http://tass.com/world/1035060
“The United States seeks to disrupt the investigation into the chemical attack by terrorists in Syria’s Aleppo on November 24 and the US State Department’s allegations that this incident was staged obviously pursue this goal, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Friday.
“The Russian Defense Ministry interprets the US State Department’s hysterical statement alleging that the November 24 chemical attack by terrorists in Aleppo was allegedly staged, as an attempt to exert pressure on the OPCW [Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons] in order to hinder an unbiased investigation,” the ministry said.
The ministry noted that for more than six months it has been informing the world community about supplies of toxic agents to terrorists and the White Helmets in Syria from Western special services. “Each time, the peaks of such supplies were synchronized with ungrounded statements by the US Department of State and other American agencies on their preparedness for a knockdown missile blow on Syria in case of another alleged use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government,” the ministry said.
The ministry recalled that it was the Syrian government that requested urgent deployment of OPCW experts to Aleppo immediately after the November 24 incident. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the United States’ statement is obviously geared “toward vindicating international terrorists operating in Idlib linked with pseudo-rescuers from the White Helmets who have backstabbed their Western patrons with their provocation.”
Apart from that, the US allegations may be “geared toward diverting attention of the world community from the crimes committed by US warplanes in eastern Syria where they have been bombing settlements around Hajin for more than a month, killing tens of civilians every day,” the ministry said.
“The Russian side has conclusive evidence proving that militants used munitions with toxic agents against civilians in Aleppo on November 24, 2018,” the ministry noted.”
A history lesson about the real america.
The Last Man Burned at the Stake in Texas

Long cut and paste from above link removed … mod
… USS Liberty …
The Israeli story has always been that they mistook a modern US surveillance ship flying then US flag for an Egyptian boat, not once but in multiple attacks. This excuse is not credible, as the recent BBC documentary showed. The film screened by BBC 2 in June 2003 had a US radio intercept officer recounting on camera that he heard the Israeli pilots twice warn their base that the ship was American.
They had a US commander state that US planes were on their way to Cairo in retalliation with a nuclear payload, and that, as the news unexpectedly leaked out that the ship had been destroyed by Israel, Johnson and McNamara had to personally abort the operation. It was even suggested that the White House had planned the operation with Israel, sending the ship undefended a few miles off the Gaza coastline. Now this version is confirmed from the following leak from the Israeli side.

Turkey asks US to remove their observation posts in northern Syria
https://mobile.almasdarnews.com/article/turkey-asks-us-to-remove-their-observation-posts-in-northern-syria/
“According to a statement from the Turkish Ministry of Defense, their minister Hulusi Akar asked the U.S. envoy to Syria James Jeffrey to remove their observation posts in northern Syria so that they can resume their operations against the YPG.
U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis had said that Washington wanted the observation posts to help minimize tensions between the Turkish forces and their Kurdish allies, including the YPG and Syrian Democratic Forces.
Akar also asked Jeffrey to stop the American collaboration with the YPG.
Since the U.S. constructed these observation posts in northern Syria, the Turkish military has halted their attacks on the YPG’s positions near the border-towns of Kobane (var. Ayn Al-Arab), Ras Al-Ayn, and Tal Abyad.”
Religion of the masses, and opiate of the people; is such an all-consuming euphoriant, altogether exiled from us?
If it were so, that we perfidious, and daresay, degenerate underlings, were not the dire and limited thinkers, we most sadly are; and, in fact, understood personal causality, in terms of conscionable direct-consequences of our cumulative life-long actions; not, as we do now, with our compensable trade in the cheap-and-quick instantaneously-calculated metrics, of oracle-indexes, derived from the limitless trivia of our own inner affectations and boastings; but instead, somehow, against impossibility, believed, in the now passé, absolute, rather than these stultifying and temporary fixes of abstraction. If only, it were the case, that such a sure and abiding trust dwelled within us, as some real culturally-cemented tangibility, as standing far above the cheeky and casual promises of the oft-vying salesman, and regarded more highly, than the off-handedly proffered proofs of the hireling, and henchmen, delegations; if only we, as the supposedly, self-serviant under-classes, actually self-servingly sought-out, the golden-pedigreed and silver-pure experience, born from that all-consuming fire of hope — the blood, sweat, and tears of heroic and faithful ancestors; and if only, we orphans had ancestors.
No, we are orphans, and made so by a certain murder; and not orphans only; but brotherless, sisterless, and friendless orphans and murderers both; and this by choice, by the direct consequence of our own choosing. By consequence of the religion we have taken-in, and put-on like a shroud; the subconscious yardstick of all self-determined merit and self-worthiness. This religion is I, and me, only; you and they, are not worthy and must be dismissed offhand. The only purpose, and meaning, is now, and the future is meaningless and inconsequential without it. Only I has meaning, and also, there is no meaning, and all meaning is dead. We are dead too, and our religion is death, but we don’t recognize, even death.
You’re right this time, that comes out from pure stupidity : then “I”cannot live without “you” and “they”. This egoistic spirit pushes the mankind to madness, as a self punishment for the sake of the Empire. Pushing the individual in its self created corner is the wet dream of that Empire, can be controlled and monitored and influenced much easier, can be pressured and blackmailed, can be led astray and co-opted for its (Empire) doctrine and will, or can be neutralized, left alive as a meaningless bug. With Ego-people, a change will never come, the New World Order will be assured and the implants of chips can begin.
Pavel’s Pyramid Book…..didn’t arrive yet. So I can’t yet discuss Giza’s purported spaceport landing guidance purpose for being built. All possibly relevant and imminently available data ought to be processed first….and it’s supposed to be on the way
But this post is related, through aeronautics, to a lot of other Café Topics on record, so let me start a Who Is This Whistleblower And What Makes Him or Her Tick??Series one that ….. anyone can tack their own Gabriel (or Gabrielle….) Whistleblower on to.
In honor of Donbass “Texas” let the theme song of this series be: The Eyes of Russia Are Upon You…..til Gabriel blows his horn. In other words…..Until The Final Judgment
Because I procrastinated posting his interview, I put Whistleblower Field McConnel first.
I saw him many years ago in connection with 9/11. Certain singular experiences strike me in ways I will never forget, even though the experience only lasts a few seconds, sometimes:
Field was analyzing film of the WTC towers taken Sept 11, 2001. Of course, everyone fixates closely on the fire, the impacts, the towers, but McConnell scanned the whole sky, by instinct and professional training. Including the eastern part of the sky that was hard to look into, because between 9 and 10 am, it’s kind of bright and glary in that direction. But something in the sunny morning clear weather glare caught his attention…that I have not heard any other person ever mention: a brief reflection in the glare, in the distance, a number of miles away, at several thousand feet elevation.
Field zoomed in with the projector and enlarged the film frames until it was clear that the flash had come from a lightly painted (white) small jet making a turn further out over the Atlantic, seconds after the second tower impact.
McConnell explained that it was a “spotter plane”, assigned to monitor events in the skies over Manhattan that morning……co-ordinate…and make sure everything came off as planned.
Anyway, when I saw the following video a couple of weeks ago
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5szvpOa2s4c
I thought Pavel might appreciate it, given his interest in Malaysian 370 and 17….the purported switcheroo in a secured hangar on Diego Garcia, etc,etc. (Same Plane?? Different “tail numbers”??) and so on
Especially after I heard that Field McConnell (he says, above) was brought to Malaysia to share his aeronautical expertise with the Malaysian authorities investigating the famous crash over Donbass.
But, as you shall see, who digest the above interview with Not Totally World Famous Yet WhistleBlower Field McConnell……there’s a LOT more to this guy than his aeronautical field plausible sounding theory of how 26 passenger jet aircraft so far have been turned into drones by remote control.
There is his sister Marcy’s lesbian relationship with Hillary Clinton, for example, just for starters.
“…….and there’s MORE!”
A lot more.
I watched the video you posted throughout Bro.
The call to God to intervene is “not my cup of tea”.
The chains of slavery are so strong only mass physical violence can break them and the average human being is non-violent, and so decent humanity is totally surrounded.
I desperately want to be wrong.
In the video … so December 5, 2018 has passed us by and I just wonder did I miss something?
The turmoil in Europe has got world wide attention, but what else?
What ‘new’ governments will be formed … and round and round we go.
(the eternal merry go-round)
The Power of Negative Thinking, Paul.
“Try it, you’ll like it!”
Try it out on challenges that go beyond lifting 2.5 ton blocks sequentially hundreds of feet up, step-wise.
A few short examples, in this short reply, before I bother, provoke, upset, annoy and taunt a lot more people with a topic new to this old Café …..or the one coming in a few hours:
1) The reason for posting Field’s interview was NOT his expression of The Spirit that moves him. The reason for posting Mr McConnell’s interview was his aeronautics expertise and the way that it and his morality, his spirit (however HE expresses it, your “cup of tea” or not!…………) has propelled him, a seemingly ordinary, flawed human being like the rest of us…..to become an important whistle-blower…and…..in his own way, a historical figure…of some modest dimension that may yet grow significantly more…in a few short years……..…some potential that is instructive for others {If we are to prevail over the Empire Demons, Psychpaths and Cannibals!) that was probably never in his career plans.
In a Mass Strike Period of History such as the one we are living in today…..that could happen to YOU……or anyone else in these Moveable Feast Cafe’s……or other places we don’t know about……if you were to “unblock” your mind a bit.
Pun intended.
2) Our host, The Saker, is also a religious man. By family and social environment, I have not been. However, personally…the idea of Spirit above Thought or Matter is rather self-evident to me…..but with zero formal religious or personal expressive habit such a Field McConnell exhibits. HOWEVER: Because of his clear mastery in his field and Saker’s clear mastery in his…..and my lesser (but not zero…though my understanding may be close to zero…) emotional connection to Icons around here and the Ioanic Calendars and certain articles on the Orthodox Church that he or others may possess, I am not prejudiced against paying close attention to his military analysis, and learning from it.
Ditto Field’s aeronautical expertise or your Pyramid Block Levitation expertise.
I guess I enjoy more than one type of tea!
Now come on, Paul. Dec 5?????
You know Q and his Army were anticipating Huber to be raking Hitlery over the coals three days ago, but the Deep State used the timing of their announcement of funeral service for the Old Skull & Bones Stiff to “Change the Narrative”.
Big deal! The New Date is Dec 13.
You’re such a formalist!
You must be an engineer. LOL.
… new date December 13 and hopefully 2018 …
… what could go wrong !
I do say prayers from time to time and I talk to ‘the power in the universe’ both verbally and through my mind’s eye. Undertook two ancient ceremonies decades ago specifically requesting to behold ancient wisdom. I was skeptical. The ceremonies are Slavic and Fijian. When the knowledge arrived on a Sunday late afternoon, August 27, 2006, I literally went into shock and nearly died.
I became partly temporarily paralysed, could not type, could not speak and my breathing was erratic. Slowly with robotic movements got to the bedroom, lay on the bed, to think relaxation, restore normal breathing and survive.
Subsequently became an author and publisher.
People make fun of me when I tell my story … that’s okay … I understand.
MH370 cargo manifest did not disclose what the US$80 million dollar insured cargo description.
… but then a leak … true or false … who knows.
“MH370 was only carrying 221kg of lithium-ion batteries on board this aircraft. But there is a very good possibility that if there was a fire, it was started by the lithium batteries… It could be as simple as a hard shake, when you’re loading it you could technically start that thermal shock basically by either dropping it or overheating for some reason”, the aviator told the Daily Star.

I repeat … will someone ask Malaysian authorities if just one Boeing was lost, or two.
RSVP.
As I predicted earlier from the glowing exchange between MBS and Putin, when all others in the MSM were outraged by the murdering MBS (while of course ignoring the slaughter in Yemen, Syria, Palestine etc.etc.).

Putin is nothing if not pragmatic. Where I was wrong, was in thinking an incremental stealth cutback in production without any fanfare was contemplated.
Canada Takes A Hostage: Free Meng Wanzhou
“The pretext for her arrest is that Huawei has violated US sanctions against Iran. But the “sanctions” imposed on Iran by the US recently are illegal under international law, that is under the UN Charter that stipulates that only the Security Council can impose economic sanctions on a nation. The latest American sanctions are not approved by the Security Council. Sanctions imposed unilaterally by one nation against another are not legal and are violation of international law. There is, therefore, no law that she or Huawei is violating. There is no legal justification for her arrest by the Canadians who (are) detaining her without legal justification.”
“Trudeau’s statement that this arbitrary arrest was not politically motivated and that he was not involved in giving orders for Canadian police to detain her once she landed in Vancouver is preposterous since the Extradition Treaty between Canada and the United States requires that the United States inform the Canadian foreign ministry of its request and send them the documents supporting the request.
Further Article 2 of the Treaty requires that Canada can only act on such a request if, and only if, the offence alleged is also an offence by the laws of both contracting parties. But the unilaterally imposed and illegal sanctions placed against Iran by the USA, are not punishable acts in Canada and even in the USA the “sanctions” are illegal as the are in violation of the UN Charter.”
