Brexit Another Excuse for Putin Bashing
Stephen Lendman
He’s falsely blamed for favoring Brexit, orchestrating Euro 2016 hooliganism, nonexistent aggression in Ukraine, menacing Baltic states and other Eastern European countries, along with being America’s top existential threat.
Now, according to right-wing Daily Beast columnist Josh Rogin, writing in the neocon Washington Post, “Russian intelligence and security services have been waging a campaign of harassment and intimidation against US diplomats, embassy staff and their families in Moscow and several other European capitals…”
No evidence suggests it. Similar accusations surfaced earlier. In October 2014, ABC News claimed “the number of incidents, targeting American diplomats in Moscow, has increased in recent years to levels not seen since the Cold War.”
Brexit Surprise
Stephen Lendman
Polls predicted a close vote. London bookmakers put odds strongly against Brexit. State controlled BBC and other major UK media one-sidedly promoted remaining in the EU, suggesting disaster otherwise.
The final vote, announced early Friday morning, was leave 51.9%, stay 48.1%. Turnout was 71.8%, 30 million Brits voting, the highest electoral participation rate since 1992.
UK Independence Party (UKIP) leader Nigel Farage hailed what he called Britain’s “independence day.” The Tory-led remain camp called it a “catastrophe.”
Please Join Me in Supporting RFK Jr. for U.S. President
Eric Zuesse
TO: http://www.robertfkennedyjr.com/contact.html [That’s the way to contact Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., personally, as I just did today, with the following note:]
Hearing that Sanders will vote for Clinton removes all hope. Unless you declare your candidacy for the U.S. Presidency as a write-in candidate.
Anyway, you'd probably get almost as many Democratic write-in votes as Clinton would get Democratic ballot-votes; and you'd probably get more Republican write-in votes than Trump would get Republican ballot-votes; and you'd get lots more independent write-in votes than any candidate would get independent ballot-votes. (All the ’third party’ ballot-candidates are just bad political jokes.) So, you'd probably win IF YOU CAMPAIGN FOR THOSE VOTES (which means: show you're really serious about becoming President). You could save the world — and that’s no joke.
Fivethirtyeight.com headlined on May 5th, “Americans’ Distaste For Both Trump And Clinton Is Record-Breaking”, and the only candidate who had a net-positive favorability rating from the American public was Sanders — who is now gone from the contest. You would be campaigning against two extremely unpopular candidates. Sanders is blocked from being a write-in candidate in many states because of their “sore loser” laws. You could take up his banner, and win the White House with it. I hope that you’ve already filed in California to be a write-in candidate, because the deadline there was very early, May 17th.
U.N.’s Legal Expert Calls Proposed Trade Deals Illegal
Eric Zuesse
Alfred de Zayas, the U.N.’s Independent Expert on the Promotion of a Democratic and Equitable International Order, is assigned the task to apply the standards of international law to proposed treaties, to determine whether they’re in accord with international law. On Friday, June 24th, he issued his finding on three large proposed treaties regarding international trade among Atlantic countries: TTIP, TISA, and CETA. Earlier, on February 2nd, he had issued a similar finding on the proposed TPP treaty between Pacific countries, and his conclusion there was the same: that the proposed treaty violates international laws, and is inconsistent with democracy.
Erdogan’s Hollow Apology to Putin
Stephen Lendman
Last November, Turkey willfully and without provocation downed a Russian Su-24 warplane flying over Syria, falsely claiming it entered Turkish airspace.
At the time, Erdogan defiantly said “(i)f another violation of our aerial border happens, we(‘ll) respond in the same way.” Clear Russian evidence proved its aircraft didn’t enter Turkish airspace. No warnings were given as Ankara claimed.
Putin justifiably called the incident a treacherous “stab in the back.” He accused Erdogan of being an “accomplice of terrorists.” Ground fire killed Russian pilot Sergey Rumyantsev after ejecting from the crippled aircraft.
His navigator Konstantin Murakhtin survived, saved by Russian ground rescue operations. Washington’s dirty hands were likely involved, Erdogan serving as a convenient hitman.
Anti-Brexit Media Campaign Kicks Off
Stephen Lendman
Scoundrel media mouthpieces for power, along with monied interests they feature oppose Brexit. Expect a torrent of gloom and doom fear-mongering to come.
Representing hundreds of member publications in over 150 countries, the Project Syndicate featured new world order/billionaire speculator George Soros’ anti-Brexit op-ed - misinformation and Big Lies substituting for straight talk.
In the EU, Britain “had the best of all possible deals,” he claimed, ignoring its lost political sovereignty to a higher Brussels authority - what no responsible government should accept.Brexit represented public discontent, an anti-neoliberal rebellion, opposing its assault on personal freedoms. Soros claimed its supporters “exploited the deteriorating refugee situation,” adding:
“(T)he catastrophic scenario that many feared has materialized, making the disintegration of the EU practically irreversible.”
BREXIT / ESCAPING FORTRESS EUROPE
Allen L Roland, PhD
A referendum is being held on Thursday, June 23rd, to decide whether Britain should leave or remain in the European Union.
To many, Britain leaving the EU is the equivalent of escaping fortress Europe, with all its stifling rules, tariffs and regulations, as well as the growing possibility of a United States of Europe and new world order. As expected, Prime Minister David Cameron, President Obama and the corporate media are solidly for maintaining the status quo but the bottom up forces of change are determined to rightfully be heard on June 23rd. Here's the movie, produced by the masses, to explain it to you and let's hope the votes are legally counted:
London Mayor, Boris Johnson claimed that some opponents have been marginalized by the agents of Project Fear ~ the label used by Brexit campaigners to criticize the fear based tactics used by David Cameron and his corporate media allies backing the status quo and a Remain vote.
British, Saudi and FBI Complicity Exposed in Orlando Mass Killings: It's the Same People Who Brought You 9/11
Executive Intelligence Review
June 15, 2016--The initial fairy-tale that the Orlando mass killing was the work of the Islamic State is rapidly disintegrating, as new evidence points to the very same combination of forces that carried out the original 9/11 attacks--the British, the Saudis, and the FBI.
Orlando mass murderer Omar Mateen was the long-time employee of one of the biggest and nastiest of the British Crown's private security agencies--G4S, with 620,000 employees in over 100 countires. G4S is the third-largest private corporation in the world, and it is a critical part of the British Monarchy's "invisible empire" of private mercenaries, assassins, and clandestine operatives. In the United States, G4S has security contracts for 90 percent of the nations's nuclear power plants, is a major sub-contractor for the Department of Homeland Security, and even handles the security for the British Petroleum offshore oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico, which is where Omar Mateen worked for a number of years.
Brexit and Jewish Oligarchy
Gilad Atzmon
Yesterday Britain voted to leave the EU. The causes of this result have been known for a while. More than half of the Brits are dismayed by the level of immigration, multiculturalism, lack of job opportunities, global capitalism, evaporation of manufacturing and a housing bubble that leaves most young Brits without the prospect of a decent future.
The Brexit was an outlet for these legitimate frustrations. Yet the problematic symptoms listed above have little to do with the EU or Brussels. Their root cause lies elsewhere.
Immigration and multiculturalism (that is; the ideology designed to suppress expression of chauvinism) are integral to cultural Marxist ideology. Britain, like the rest of the West, has been subject to an invasive and brutal paradigm designed to vitiate the working class. Flooding Britain with immigration was a conscious political act pushed by the Jewish left and the Jewish lobby. This is explainable. Jews have good reason to be fearful of the working classes. Historically, it has been the working classes that turned against the Jews. Breaking society into fragmented and diverse segments is transparently a Jewish left interest. When a society is broken into a manifold of tribes and identities, the Jews become merely one tribe amongst many.
U.S. Study Finds Immigrants Imprisoned to Boost Prison-Corporation Profits
Eric Zuesse
93% of the people who are locked up in the U.S. in order to meet the minimum legal requirements for the number of people who must be locked up on possible violations of U.S. immigration laws, are locked in for-profit prisons, which are owned by corporations that heavily fund a few politicians, including Hillary Clinton.
That 93% finding was published on June 20th, in a study by the Center for Constitutional Rights, titled, “Banking on Detention: Local Lockup Quotas and the Immigrant Dragnet”.
Ghita Schwartz, Senior Staff Attorney for CCR, said, in releasing the report: “Almost all guaranteed minimums are found in facilities that contract with private prison companies, and ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] actively collaborates with these companies to keep details of their contracts secret.”
On 28 April 2015, the Washington Post published an article, "How for-profit prisons have become the biggest lobby no one is talking about: Sen. Marco Rubio is one of the biggest beneficiaries.” It failed to include one crucial fact: Hillary Clinton is the other.
