Russia Imposes Economic Sanctions on Turkey
by Stephen Lendman
Antagonizing Russia is foolhardy. Erdogan’s reckless act is proving costly. Putin’s promised payback is proceeding.
On Saturday, responding to Erdogan’s aggression, he signed an “Executive Order on measures to ensure Russia’s national security and protection of Russian citizens against criminal and other illegal acts and on the application of special economic measures against Turkey.”
It “restricts foreign economic operations envisaging imports to the Russian Federation of certain goods originating in the Turkish Republic in line with a register determined by the government of the Russian Federation (exclusive of the goods brought into the Russian Federation for individual use in the amounts permitted by the laws of Eurasian Economic Union).”It bans or restricts Turkish organizations from conducting certain types of activity in Russia. Effective January 1, Russian employers are prohibited from hiring Turkish nationals. Current Turkish employees aren’t affected.
Moscow Says US Knows Who Killed Russian Pilot
by Stephen Lendman
Sputnik News reports Russia’s Defense Ministry says its “Su-24 pilot died because of an attack from the ground when he was landing,” adding that “during a rescue operation, (a) Russian marine was also killed.”
Foreign Affairs Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said “Moscow has all grounds to suggest that the US has obtained the exact data (about individuals on the ground involved in) firing…on the Russian pilot.” A US Defense Ministry spokesman lied, claiming “(w)e don’t have anything on this issue.” Putin remains justifiably livid about what happened, compounded by Erdogan’s refusal to apologize. Fascist despots never say they’re sorry.
Rogue State Britain
by Stephen Lendman
Britain proves time and again it’s a loyal imperial partner, participating in all US wars of aggression overtly or covertly, rule of law principles be damned.
Washington wants the November 13 Paris false flag along with Brussels violence and lockdown used as a pretext for escalated bombing of Syrian targets, not ISIS and other terrorists. Britain’s David Cameron intends holding a parliamentary vote on greater UK involvement in Obama’s war on Assad - likely this week.
He lied claiming an imminent ISIS threat to Britain’s homeland when the only thing its people need fear is state-sponsored terrorism, a false flag like in Paris.
Defense Secretary Michael Fallon lied like Cameron, saying “(t)he threat to the UK is extremely high. An attack is highly likely so we have to respond. What happened in Paris and Brussels could easily happen in London” or other UK cities.
Israel’s War on Press Freedom Continues
by Stephen Lendman
Rogue states want their message alone reported, evidence of their high crimes suppressed.
On Sunday morning, Israeli forces stormed Hebron-based Dream Radio, damaging or confiscating its equipment, shutting it down on fabricated charges of “incitement against Israel” - the third Hebron station closed in November.
Station director Talab Al-Jaabri said Israeli soldiers rampaged through his offices, damaging them, shutting down operations to prevent accurate reporting on security force high crimes.
Did Erdogan Order Prominent Turkish Lawyer’s Assassination?
by Stephen Lendman
Turkey under Erdogan is a fascist police state. Anyone criticizing regime policy risks harassment, arrest, indictment on phony charges, imprisonment or death. Fundamental freedoms don’t exist.
Prominent Turkish attorney/Kurdish rights supporter Tahir Elci headed southeastern Diyarbakir province’s bar association.
On Saturday, local hospital sources confirmed he died from gunshot wounds to his head, a clear indication he was assassinated. In October, he was detained for publicly saying the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) isn’t a terrorist organization - then released awaiting trial. He faced imprisonment for speaking freely - the most fundamental right in all free and open societies without which all others are endangered.
Regime-controlled prosecutors accused him of spreading terrorist propaganda. He was killed while making a statement to the press.
Kerry in Israel
by Stephen Lendman
Washington is the enemy of all persecuted and exploited people everywhere, including at home, clear whenever Kerry visits Israel, most recently on November 24.
He ignored long-suffering Palestinians, now struggling valiantly for rights they’re denied - brutalized daily for wanting freedom from occupation harshness. Kerry met with Netanyahu, partners in high crimes, his disdain for Palestinian rights apparent.
Pointing fingers at defenseless victims while ignoring Israeli high crimes, he said “it is very clear to us that the terrorism – these acts of terrorism which have been taking place – have deserved the condemnation that they are receiving.” “And today, I expressed my complete condemnation for any act of terror that takes innocent lives and disrupts the day-to-day life of a nation. Israel has every right in the world to defend itself and it has an obligation to defend itself, and it will and it is.”
Fact: Since October 1, Israeli soldiers and police extrajudicially assassinated 104 Palestinians, including over two dozen children and five women.
This Is World War III
Timothy Gatto
The CNN headline read “How is This Not WWIII? I was surprised to see this article on CNN and after having read the article I realized that CNN had really not strayed too far from the dogma that is the mainstream media. If I had been tasked to write that article, I would have taken a very different approach.
I first realized that World War III was about to take place just before the Olympic Games in Sochi. The coverage of the games hardly mentioned the sports and competitions, instead, it was a non-stop demonization of Russia and Vladimir Putin. I heard diatribes about how unprepared the Russians were to host the games, how much money they spent on them and how the games were bound to fail and would let the World see how inept the Russians, under Putin, really were.
Jeremy Corbyn Opposes Britain Bombing Syria
by Stephen Lendman
Britain already is bombing Syrian targets covertly. Prime Minister David Cameron ordered it illegally despite parliamentary majority opposition in August 2013.
Freedom of Information (FOI) documents obtained by the UK-based Reprieve human rights group revealed illegal British aerial operations in Syria - striking infrastructure and government targets, not ISIS and other terrorist elements as Cameron later claimed, a liar and unindicted war criminal like Obama. In response to Reprieve's FOI request, Britain's Defense Ministry lied, saying: “UK military personnel embedded with the USA, French and Canadian armed forces have been authorized to deploy with their units to participate in coalition operations against ISIL.”
Russian S-400s Protect Syrian Airspace
by Stephen Lendman
Deploying Russia’s S-400 air defense system to Syria warns Washington, Turkey and other potential NATO or regional adversaries it will destroy anything seen threatening its aircraft or ground personnel.
Its technology is unmatched - the world’s most sophisticated state-of-the-art anti-aircraft/anti-missile system capability able to strike targets up to 400 km away at altitudes up to 90,000 feet, including fifth generation warplanes, as well as ballistic and cruise missiles. It’s protected against electronic warfare and able to hit targets beyond the horizon. No other country has anything matching it, including America.
Law & Order, They Live, Satan and CPS
By Katherine Smith PhD
[I have been raising awareness about The Nationwide Broken Child Protection Services (CPS) since 2013 (www.savelexi.com).]
Have you ever wondered why Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, the ripped-from-the-headlines plots trading on the controversies of the day, are so popular?
The long running and hugely popular SVU boasts more than six million viewers.
I can think of only two reasons why the suspenseful, intense, creepy, Law and Order SVU Episodes [Appendix B] are so popular:
1) In spite of evidence to the contrary, we want to believe that the criminals are really captured in a timely fashion and we don’t have to worry about them harming us, OR
2) The Law & Order pop culture traffics in the lurid and transfixing gravitas of sexual trauma because we enjoy watching the suffering of innocent people. There is no evidence to the contrary: the reality of our criminal system is that if you are in jail you are either innocent, a loser or you were convicted for political reasons.
Why would anyone enjoy watching the suffering of innocent people?
Have you ever watched any of the Alien series on TV? Lost Girl, Being Human and Bitten are all Canadian-based supernatural “original’ scripts. [1] Lost Girl is about humanoids called "Fae" who clandestinely live among and feed on us humans. The Government of Canada and the Canadian cable industry participated in the production with Canada and Ontario Film Tax Credits.
Why do I emphasize the Canadian connection? Because former Canadian Defense Minister, Paul Hellyer, who had access to highly classified information during the height of the cold war, has very recently (February 3, 2014) put himself in the spotlight by speaking about extraterrestrials on Russia Today’s program SophieCo. You can be sure Hellyer is a disinformation agent because he is telling Sophie’s viewers that the aliens are sitting around a STAR-bucks on their planet wondering why “we humans fight each other and spend our money with these exotic thermonuclear weapons and atomic weapons, instead of feeding the poor and looking after the homeless and the sick.”
But, remember there is information in dis-information. When Hellyer declares, “[I’ve] been getting from various sources [that] there are about 80 different species and some of them look just like us and they could walk down the street and you wouldn’t know if you walked past one,” it's hard to miss the reference to the movie They Live, the 1988 American horror film, directed by John Carpenter. Roddy Piper, star of the movie, recently twittered that They Live wasn’t a work of fiction, but a documentary. In the movie, an unemployed drifter referred to as "Nada" (Roddy Piper) discovers a special pair of sunglasses; looking through them he sees the reality of a bleak world populated by humanoid aliens with grotesque skull-like faces. Without those special sunglasses, the human masses see only beings that look like themselves. [2]
