Israel Joins Obama's War on Yemen
by Stephen Lendman
Obama terror-bombed Yemen throughout his tenure. He murdered hundreds of noncombatant men, women and children in cold blood.
He's at it again. He's waging proxy war against Houthi rebels.
He's using rogue state regional allies to do his dirty work.
Houthis ousted illegitimately US-installed puppet Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi.
Israel quietly joined Obama's dirty war. On March 22, Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi accused Washington and Israel of using Takfiri extremists to stage terrorist attacks on Yemeni civilians.
Mosques were targeted. Scores were killed, hundreds injured. Al-Houthi urged Yemenis to unite against elements aiming to destabilize the country.
"Everyone is a target," he said. He didn't know at the time Washington intended using proxy forces to terror-bomb Yemen into submission.
Netanyahu Apocalyptic Over Treating Iran Fairly
by Stephen Lendman
He's one of many hardline lunatics infesting Israel - a rogue leader, nuclear armed and dangerous, waging permanent war on Palestine, threatening the entire region.
Iran and P5+1 countries inch toward trying to cobble together something they can call success after 18 months of nuclear talks - a framework deal leaving much unresolved ahead of trying to reach agreement by end of June.
Netanyahu is going all-out to sabotage efforts by all means possible - maybe including war if other methods fail.
He's adamant against treating Iran fairly. He invents all sorts of Big Lies.
He finds reasons to unjustly demonize the Islamic Republic. Eliminating it as a regional rival is longstanding Israeli policy to achieve its hegemonic ambitions.
Chances for Washington normalizing relations with Iran are virtually nil - even if major issues relating to its nuclear program are resolved.
Iran Nuclear Talks: Kicking the Can Down the Road
by Stephen Lendman
On March 31 deadline day, AP reported "Iran Nuke Talks to Continue in (a) New Phase."
Six days of negotiations in Lausanne left key sticking points unresolved - notably on lifting sanctions and nuclear R&D.
AP said P5+1 nations "prepared Tuesday to issue a general statement agreeing to continue negotiations in a new phase aimed at reaching a comprehensive accord by the end of June, officials told The Associated Press on Tuesday."
According to unnamed ones close to talks, a joint statement will include documents "outlin(ing) more detailed understandings, allowing the sides to claim enough progress has been made thus far to merit a new round," AP reported.
Obama's Dirty War on Yemen
by Stephen Lendman
Candidate Obama was elected promising peace. On October 28, 2007, he said:
"I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out of Afghanistan by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do."
"I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank."
Instead he escalated. America's war on Afghanistan continues. Permanent occupation is planned.
Obama arguably is America's most belligerent president ever. He exceeds the worst of his predecessors.
Multiple direct and proxy wars continue raging nonstop throughout his tenure - against Afghanistan, parts of Pakistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Ukraine, Somalia, partnered with Israel against Palestine and now Yemen.
Israeli Stooge Abbas Supports Obama's War on Yemen
by Stephen Lendman
Israel appointed Mahmoud Abbas Palestinian Authority leader to provide enforcer services - dirty work it subcontracts.
He's hugely corrupt. He amassed great stolen wealth serving Israeli interests - conspiring against his own people.
He's a Palestinian Judas, a longtime Israeli collaborator. He has no legitimacy whatever. He belongs in prison, not high office.
On Thursday, he expressed support for Saudi terror-bombing - naked aggression by any standard.
He backs US-installed ousted puppet Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi.
He ludicrously called restoring him to power important to create Yemeni security and unity.
He turned a blind eye to his despotic rule. He's mindless of US-directed Saudi terror bombing murdering scores of civilian men, women and children - maybe hundreds by now.
Hillary Clinton’s Presidential Campaign Is Now Effectively Over, Wall Street Warns Dems Not to Choose Senator Elizabeth Warren
Eric Zuesse
Hillary Clinton’s unannounced campaign for the U.S. Presidency has already failed. Her arrogance (or else stupidity) in having wiped clean the hard drive of the private server she had used for her emails while she was the U.S. Secretary of State adds insult to the injury already done to her incipient campaign by the earlier revelation that she had evaded the State Department’s record-keeping system and had used her private server for all of her State Department emails and not only for her personal emails. (The NYT had headlined March 2nd: “Hillary Clinton Used Personal Email at State Dept., Possibly Breaking Rules.”)
Israel Uses Lethal Force Against Palestinian Children
by Stephen Lendman
It's longstanding Israel practice - shooting defenseless Palestinian children in cold blood.
Defence for Children International-Palestine (DCI-P) explains what's virtually unreported in the West.
On March 23, DCI-P called on UN member states to hold Israel accountable for crimes against Palestinian children. It issued a statement to the UN Human Rights Council saying in part: "A generation of Palestinian children living under prolonged Israeli military occupation have been arrested, shot, shelled and bombed since 2000, and, during this time, Israeli forces have killed over 1,900 children."
Britain Prepares for Nonexistent Russian Attack
by Stephen Lendman
Britain is run by the same kinds of lunatics infesting America. Prime Minister David Cameron and other UK officials hype nonexistent "Russian aggression."
Gallup Finds: Among Conservatives, Education Increases False Belief
Eric Zuesse
100% agreement among scientists does not exist on anything, not even on basic laws of physics; but there are some scientific topics where the degree of expert consensus is near 100%, and human-caused (or “anthropogenic”) global warming is one of them, with more than 97% of the scientific experts in the field agreeing that this phenomenon is real. (See this paper, which is the most-rigorous study to-date, of expert opinion on the subject, quantifying the extent of this consensus; this is a study of 11,944 papers that have been published on the matter, and it finds that more than 97% of the peer-reviewed papers that have expressed an opinion on whether “anthropogenic global warming” exists, have said that it does. A contrarian tried to debunk that paper and reduce the consensus down to 91%, which is still high, but there were errors in his paper, and he even admitted: “There is no doubt in my mind that the literature on climate change overwhelmingly supports the hypothesis.")
Washington Wants Its Big Lying Machine Revved Up
by Stephen Lendman
Its annual three-fourths of a billion dollars spent isn't enough. It's for managed news disinformation rubbish aired by:
● Voice of America;
● Radio Free Asia;
● Radio and TV Marti aimed at Cuba; and
● Middle East Broadcasting Networks
● Middle East Broadcasting Networks.
Plus enormous sums spent by supportive corporate media, as well as so-called public (be damned) broadcasting and radio blasting out Big Lies, fake news, and other grand deceptions instead of what everyone deserves.
Reuters previewed a new report claiming America is losing the information war to Russia - written by two former US propagandists, S. Enders Wimbush and Elizabeth Portale.
They along with 30 foreign policy/diplomacy professionals polled want America's Big Lying Machine revved up.
