AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE

CALEB MAUPIN—The Wahabbi networks of the Saudis have long been a source of revenue for Pentagon military contractors, and vehicle for waging proxy wars. Zbigniew Brzezinski arranged for the USA to support a young Saudi named Osama Bin Laden, who was the wealthy heir of a construction firm. Bin Laden purchased huge amounts of weapons from the United States, and with CIA assistance, built a Wahabbi army in Afghanistan to fight against the Soviet Union and topple the People’s Democratic Republic. 

ERIC ZUESSE—This deal would be an authentic quid-pro-quo between the United States and North Korea, which would greatly benefit the economies of the United States, Japan, and South Korea (removing the unnecessary financial burden of maintaining and arming those occupying US troops — troops which are superfluous to everyone except America’s billionaires, who want to impose their corporate wills upon every nation — including upon Russia and China). It wouldn’t benefit merely North Korea (though it also would do that).

MoA—It is quite possible that the U.S. is causing the outages in Venezuela’s network. The second total outage yesterday and the third today could be explained by a malware hidden within the control system of the whole network or in some important side components. It took the Iranian government months to find the malware that again and again crashed its uranium centrifuges. Simply restarting the control systems did not help.

The truth is in plain sight, although the media hide it and continue insisting on the “imperative need” to overthrow the “bloody tyrant” Nicolás Maduro. The Yankees no longer have the muscle they used to have and again they were wrong in the calculation. Now they have two options: send the Colombians to die on the Venezuelan border at the hands of the FANB and the armed militia, or undertake the invasion with their own marines.

JAKE JOHNSON—On Twitter, the youth-led Jewish advocacy group IfNotNow credited grassroots pressure with ensuring that “the new House Resolution [is] more inclusive: it now condemns anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, and racism, while correctly blaming the rise of such bigotry on white nationalism and white supremacy.”“It is not a perfect resolution,” IfNotNow added. “Its timing still clearly associates it as a rebuke to Ilhan Omar. It, unfortunately, enshrines U.S. support for the Israeli government, which maintains the fifty-one-year military occupation of the West Bank and siege of the Gaza Strip.”
