    ​More details from the Great-Negotiator​’s leaked “Deal of the Century”: Thanks Eleni.
    ​ ​In addition to the Trump administration’s apparent game plan to force Palestinian compliance with the so-called “Deal of the Century,” the plan also calls for the creation of a demilitarized state of “New Palestine” that would be incredibly small, as the document calls for the Israeli annexation of the entirety of the Jordan Valley (around 30 percent of the West Bank) and the annexation of all illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank, which now cover well over half of what international law maintains is Palestinian territory.
    ​ ​This “new” state would be showered in aid from several countries, including the Gulf monarchies, European nations and the United States, allegedly amounting to $30 billion over the next five years. Most of the funding, according to the plan, will come from oil-producing Gulf states like Saudi Arabia. It is unclear whether “New Palestine” would be considered a sovereign state and whether it would be allowed to apply for full membership in the United Nations.
    ​ ​While the plan would allow “New Palestine” access to Jerusalem as a shared, undivided capital with Israel, Palestinians would be responsible for paying the state of Israel for their security because it would be forbidden from having its own army. In other words, Palestinians would be forced to pay the Israel Defense Force (IDF), the military force that has occupied the West Bank for over 50 years, to “protect” them despite the fact the Palestinians are regularly extrajudicially murdered by IDF soldiers. However, the apparent “concession” offered by the Trump administration in this regard would be allowing the “New Palestine” to maintain a police force with “light weaponry.”

    Trump’s “Deal of the Century” Will Use Sanctions, Military Threats to Force Palestinian Acceptance

    ​Turkey is in the crosshairs of Kushner Plan for Greater Israel: Thanks for this and the next one, Eleni.

    Washington has recently vowed to cut off both Iranian exports and any and all Syrian imports of crude by force. “Analysts have widely predicted that Iran will step up efforts to smuggle oil into Syria and neighboring Iraq as the U.S. makes it more difficult for Tehran to ship oil to its few remaining customers, including China, India and Turkey,” the CNBC report found.
    It appears Iran’s latest Syria crude delivery was accomplished by “ghosting” – which involves tankers switching off their transponders.

    ​ ​The U.S. military and their allies from the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) opened fire on a Syrian government ferry that was attempting to transport oil in the Euphrates River Valley.
    ​ ​According to the pro-SDF Deir Ezzor Media Center page on Facebook, the U.S. Coalition forces fired shots at the Syrian government ferry as it was traveling down the Euphrates River.
    ​ ​The U.S. has been preventing Syria from transporting oil from neighboring countries like Iraq because of the Trump administration’s ongoing sanctions against the government in Damascus.
    ​ ​Syria is experiencing a nationwide fuel crisis as a result of these sanctions; it has forced the government to ration of fuel to civilians in order to maintain their current supply.

    Who potentially benefits from secretive attacks on 2 Saudi oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz?
    Just askin’… Nobody I know.

    An American military team assessing blasts that damaged four commercial ships off the coast of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Sunday has blamed Iran or Iranian-backed proxies using explosive charges, a source told Fox News on Monday evening.
    Each ship had a 5-to-10-foot hole in it, near or just below the water line, a U.S. official told The Associated Press. A Norwegian-flagged vessel, two Saudi oil tankers and a bunkering tanker flagged in Sharjah, one of the UAE’s seven emirates, all suffered similar damage Sunday.

    “Who Were the Mueller Report’s Hired Guns? (RCI)”

    Going back years, and years and years, this story made no sense. Jimmy Dore asks, “Okay, so Russia wants to hack the election. WTF do they need Trump for? He’d just screw it up! You’d do it and NOT tell him.” Next, Ukraine. Great! Ukraine is the ENEMY of Russia right now. So NOT(?) Putin? Carter Page was an FBI informant, if I remember correctly; if they don’t know what he’s been doing over the years it’s Mueller (former director) that needs to be arrested. Same with Mifsud. Supposedly Russian agent and contact, TRAINER OF FBI in the Mediterranean, Italy says. So either he IS Russian, and Mueller is a Russian asset because he didn’t arrest the top, #1, deep-level Russian mole, OR Mifsud works for the FBI, Comey, McCabe and the boys, and it’s the biggest, top, #1 story that the FBI was unseating an elected President. …Oh and that Mueller didn’t arrest him for THAT. It can only be one way or the other; either he’s a Russian agent or he’s not.
    “Russian contacts” that happened multiple times were like being photographed at the same dinner party as a Russian, or cases where someone (like Mifsud) called the Trump campaign on the phone (like Popodopolis) and Trump said “no.” “Contact”, doncha know. Because, if there was any evidence, WHY ISN’T IT IN THE REPORT? WHY ISN’T TRUMP BEING CHARGED? Nevermind – logic. We no do that anymore.

    Meanwhile MI6 is openly rigging the election, openly paying for it, openly using their assets and 5 eyes to rig the election, it’s all reported in the NYTimes, and that’s okay. Because election rigging is not equal opportunity, apparently: it’s only okay if my guy gets in. So, as I’ve said, obviously Trump needs to wiretap all 22 DNC candidates two layers deep, plant money and honey-pot them, because that’s what we do now. Totally legal! Ask James and Andy! Democracy is when the FBI and CIA pick our leaders.

    “US Accuses Iran of Attack on Saudi Tankers (ZH)”

    Let’s say it IS Iran, as a warning. WHO in Iran, exactly? The legit parliament right up through Rouhani? Or their ‘CIA’ islanded and outside of civilian control inside the Revolutionary Guard? Their “Iran” is no more cohesive than the “U.S.” does things. Some do, some don’t. Some things have been approved, some haven’t. And sometimes those overreaches are discovered and prosecuted, but mostly not. So WHO is he talking to? WHO is doing the sabotage here? Why not Saudi themselves? Why not the CIA to get a war going that gets everyone off their back? Why not MI6 or Germany for reasons we don’t know? Why not Exxon and Morgan to raise prices before Fracking debt takes down the U.S.? Be careful.

    “Sweden Wants to Extradite Assange Over Rape Allegation (R.)”

    So they want to investigate rape past the statute of limitations, on behalf of someone who doesn’t want to press charges, and who openly says it was consensual? Sounds legit. “Habeas Corpus.” Meaning, “Produce the Body.” Whoever has his testimony can convict the Deep State of treason. Which is why the Media wants Assange to hang, because they, the media, were participating and promoting, for money, fame, and blackmail. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird

    “Lewinsky Scandal Beginning of the End of American Journalism – Taibbi (SHTF)”

    I disagree with Taibbi. The media dutifully refused to report Lewinski, although everyone in D.C. knew all about it and so many others. …The very first thing ever reported about Bill was his philandering, and quite probably raping girls in Arkansas and using the S.P. to cover it up, which is why he’d never be President. Drudge, of this new “Internet” (a series of connecting tubes), wasn’t “IN” the media, and DID report it. Why? Because it’s a gol-darned story! Crickey! How little things change.

    So then, just like now, he caught and discredited journalists as propagandists, and they had to follow up and report. But this was just reflecting the difference of Tipper and the Gipper shouting across Congress, then afterwards sitting down in the White House after 5pm and talking out real compromises. Instead, with a new “our side right or wrong” and “we’ll use our power in government to attack all our opponents/enemies”, the media got their orders – as we just established they do whatever they’re told – and ran the political hay-making, just as the partys’ planners asked them to. So then you have the OPPOSITE, because it’s not really a story. His sex life is not germane to the Presidency unless he’s sleeping with foreign agents. But they use it to puff up pressure of REAL stuff they won’t put into public. …Which makes it partisan propaganda NOT reporting all over again. Things like the WTO and handing Scandia Lab’s project book to China. You know, real stories like that, which we now have to fight today, when they’re 50x worse, 30 years later.

    Journalism? Brian “Beautiful Bombs” Williams, “Live from the Moon” for decades. Walter Cronkite, “the most trusted man in America”, was top dog when this quote was said, “We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years……It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years.”

    Yeah, just like that “spotless” FBI under J Edgar, wiretapping peaceniks and telling MLK to kill himself. …How quickly we forget it was all a sham, a con, all the way back. “Journalism” was any good before 1996. Please.

    “The moment CNN is labeled “left” is where insanity takes off.”

    Or that Fox is “Right”, owned by very-left UK/AUS Murdoch, and now his even-more Left kids. There are only two classes: the insiders and the outsiders. The rest is just WWE. The “Left” had 100% of the Wrestlemania in the U.S. covered, so Murdoch picked up the phony “Right” for views, steering them wherever he wanted. Like into the wars they all agreed on then and agree on today.

    “There’s a real question about whether democratic capitalism socialism is working,”

    Fixed it. Because what would you have when the government is united with and working on behalf of the oligarchs and corporations? Capitalism? No, that requires free markets and bankruptcy. The joining of the two is either Fascism or Socialism, but they’re really the same, as in the “National SOCIALIST Worker’s Party”. As Goebbels said, “the difference between Communism and the Hitler faith is very slight.” — Viz, one was ‘National’ and one was ‘International’. But sure, let’s give the government MORE power. Surely unlike the last 100 years, they won’t use that power to rob the poor and help their rich friends, right? More government equals more income disparity. Check history.

    “The more restrictions and prohibitions there are,
    The poorer the people will be.
    The more sharp weapons people have in a country,
    The bigger the disorder will be.
    The more laws and commands there are,
    The more thieves and robbers there will be.

    Therefore the sage says:
    I do not act, And people become reformed by themselves.
    I am at peace, And people become fair by themselves.
    I do not interfere, And people become rich by themselves.”
    –Tao Te Ching

    Unlike Vaccines, PFAS Affect Us All, Especially Men

    Chemicals in air water food fabric pharma hygiene and container products are turning all male fish, frog, bird and mammal into females. 

    Petro Pharma Chemicals (PPCs) are also shrinking male dicks.

    PPCs will make 90% of North American and European men infertile by 2050.

    Two types of PPCs are PFAS and PFOS, there are thousands of different kinds of them.

    PFAS are called Forever Chemicals and will last longer than many rocks.

    PFAS show up in 99% of North America’s blood.

    Unlike vaccines, PFAS affect us all.

    PFAS concentrate and accumulate up the food chain and towards the north.

    They affect all vertebrate species and people in North America and Europe.

    ‘SINCE RECORDS BEGAN’

    Climate ‘scientists’ insist on only using data gathered ‘since records began’, about 150 years in the UK and about 100 years for most of the world. Much less for arctic ice and CO2 levels.

    The Earth is 4.5 billion years old, can’t science give us more data? Yes of course, but it is the ‘wrong data’ and is ignored. For example ice and sediment cores show there have been three previous warm periods in just the last 3 thousand years, the Bronze, Roman and Mediaeval.

    Each was warmer than today, in fact the Bronze was warmer than the Roman, which was warmer than the Mediaeval, which was warmer than today! These cores also show the relationship between CO2 and temperature : CO2 levels move in step with the global temperature 600 years previously! CO2 is a ‘lagging indicater’, not a cause. Science also shows CO2 levels are at historical lows – it has been as much as seven times higher in the past.

    There was an interesting graph published in New Scientist showing a temperature reconstruction of the Earth for the past 4 billion years. For over 50% of the time it showed the Earth as being several degrees warmer than today! I think 2018 was declared the fourth warmest year ‘on record’, but was more like the 2.7 billionth warmest year on Earth! What was interesting was that there seemed to be an upper limit for global temperature, which suggests there is some feedback mechanism to stop temperatures going beyond a certain point.

    ‘Records’ began soon after the Little Ice Age, so it is not surprising that global temperatures increased. For those ‘scientists’ who ARE surprised it is the same as recording temperatures in February and panicking by June because you ‘know’ that in six months time the Earth will be too hot for life.

    After global warming stopped in 1998 a new man-made disaster had to be invented : Climate Change. It is like a fortune teller saying something bad will happen, but they can’t say what or when. When something bad happens they exclaim ‘AHA, told you!…and it’s YOUR fault’.

    I haven’t followed this for a few years. The last thing I read was that they were concerned people regarded ‘Climate Change’ as just being ‘bad weather’ so they needed yet another ‘man-made’ disaster – a computer model to ‘predict’ species extinction. Now they ‘predict’ one MEEELLION species are heading for extinction. Very suspicious!

    Ugh. Palestine deal. The worst.

    But this is what happens when you ignore war crimes for 40 years, don’t enforce any U.N. resolutions. …Now the Palestinians have no power, no land, and no bargaining leverage. They’re stamping a done deal, fait accompli, but I wouldn’t stamp it.

    This from the actual Northwestern Study (not RT).

    “Is there simply more news produced on the left? It appears so. We confirmed this by searching the GDELT database of news articles for the same queries we used to audit Google. In GDELT there were 2.2 times as many articles from left-leaning sources as right-leaning sources. But in Google Top Stories that ratio was 3.2, indicating that the curation algorithm was slightly magnifying the left-leaning skew in comparison to the GDELT baseline.”

    “Another aspect of Google’s news curation is the timeliness of articles selected. Just how quickly does Google churn through news content? Since the Top Stories box provides the approximate age of each article (e.g. “2 hours ago”), we were able to tabulate the recency of articles. What we found is that 83.5 percent of articles were less than 24 hours old and 13.1 percent were less than an hour old. What this means is that organizations that can generate fresh copy may be more apt to have that material selected by the curation algorithm.”

    Once again RT takes information and twists it into the paradigm it wants to impress upon as many people as it can. How is it that Russian media, Fox news, and the GOP are so closely aligned conceptually? Rather strange to me, at least from an historical perspective.

    The USA has only democratic friends.
    Dictators not allowed
    Military ruler not allowed
    Corrupt gov. not allowed
    Execution by beheading political enemies are not allowed

    Only YES gov. will be tolerated and not be subjected to sieges.

    Cuba, Venezuela, are not the right kind of democracy

    China and Russia are in a special class.

    Israel and Palestine are the USA proxy in the middle east

    Very left??? To me an exceedingly odd point of view. The view in Australia is that Murdoch, his media empire and his kids are Hard Right who enthusiastically support the outgoing neocon / neoliberal federal government, to the extent that some people wonder where the government ends and News Corp begins.

    Never Left. Unless the US has some strange new definition of the meaning of “Left.”
