Leaders with No accountability and No Shame
Pakistan is in ruins. The nation and its imagery, law and justice, commerce, thinking hubs, political governance all appear dysfunctional and self-contradictory. Eroding freedom of thoughts and action speaks of missing accountability of political elite. The nation is fast becoming victim of a US planned blue-print being used in Iraq. Vengeful sectarian killings and dismantling of economic, political and moral infrastructures to incapacitate the nation by its own sadistic rulers. All fighting against all to end the very existence by collective madness. The paid Pakistani political and security agents are instrumental in carrying out heinous crimes. Increasingly and without any logical redress, common citizens are the targeted aim of the political cruelty. No wonder, once conditions favorable to cruelty are established, it spreads like frightening wildfire. The governance demonstrates dead-ended political conscience of the interest of the people. After decade-old American entrapment in the bogus war on terrorism, the country has lost the energies and capacity to deal with any major problems of security and national unity. The foreign agenda is focused on breaking the moral and spiritual lifelines of the Pakistani nation by its own agents of influence. There are no brave and proactive politicians to stop the continuing political stagnation. The nation faces colossal disaster day in and day out but nobody is held accountable for the crimes. The Generals are convenient spectators and Nawaz Sharif is happy, the herd is politically manageable to complete his inherently fraudulent term of office as prime minister.

Introduction
The US-EU sponsored coup in the Ukraine and its conversion from a stable Russian trading partner, to a devastated EU economic client and NATO launch pad, as well as the subsequent economic sanctions against Russia for supporting the Russian ethnic majority in the Donbas region and Crimea, illustrate the dangerous vulnerability of the Russian economy and state. The current effort to increase Russia’s national security and economic viability in the face of these challenges requires a critical analysis of the policies and structures emerging in the post-Soviet era.

On November 7, a White House press release announced her appointment for Attorney General. Succeding Eric Holder.
Calling her a "strong, independent prosecutor who twice led one of the most important US Attorney's Offices in the country."
Obama called her perhaps "the only lawyer in America who battles mobsters and drug lords and terrorists and still has the reputation for being a charming people person."
Holder disgraced the office he held. Francis Boyle called him "a total disaster for the United States Constitution, the Bill of Rights, Human Rights and the Rule of Law."

Ominous Vietnam War echoes. On November 7, a Department of Defense news release said in part:
"The commander in chief has authorized Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel to deploy to Iraq up to 1,500 additional US personnel over the coming months, in a non-combat role, to expand our advise and assist mission and initiate a comprehensive training effort for Iraqi forces."
"Secretary Hagel made this recommendation to President Obama based on the request of the Government of Iraq, US Central Command's assessment of Iraqi units, the progress Iraqi security forces have made in the field, and in concert with the development of a coalition campaign plan to defend key areas and go on the offensive against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL)."

Israel's sordid history is blood-drenched. Unmatched in modern times along with America.
The late Edward Said called conditions "a disheartening bloody impasse." Blind destructiveness. State-sponsored terrorism. Viciousness writ large.
Palestine is an isolated prison, he said. An entire population being suffocated out of existence.
For decades, Palestinians endured every imaginable indignity, degradation, and crime against humanity.
They're assaulted, arrested, imprisoned, tortured, humiliated, and otherwise abused.
By Israel's vicious, unrelenting killing machine. State terror genocidal agenda. Premeditated wars of aggression.
Vladimir Putin’s Russia: Perfect Foil To The Anglo-American Axis And Their New World ‘Order’
Why is the Anglo-American Axis so afraid of Putin and determined to bring him down?
No world leader has been so demonized by the West over the past decade as President Vladimir Putin of Russia has.
No other president or prime minister has been subjected to so many outrageous personal attacks and unrelenting false accusations.
Clearly, Vladimir Putin represents a genuine threat to the World Shadow Government (WSG) in a way that profoundly unnerves those who reside at the peak of the global power pyramid.
Why are they so afraid of him?

The globalist controlled Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) have called on the U.S. to work more closely with Canada and Mexico to build a new North American partnership for the future. The pivot to North America would focus on greatertrilateral cooperation in areas such as energy, economic competitiveness, border management, law enforcement and continental perimeter security. Throughout the years, the incremental steps towards a North American Union have been used to furtherchip away at the sovereignty of all three NAFTA countries.

Claims about Russia invading Ukraine are fabricated. Earlier and current ones. Baseless Big Lies. Media scoundrels feature them.
State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki cites a nonexistent "pattern of escalating (Russian) aggression in Ukraine."
Nothing whatever exists. Not earlier. Not now. In late August, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov debunked spurious invasion claims," saying:
"It's not the first time we've heard wild guesses, though facts have never been presented so far."
"There have been reports about satellite imagery exposing Russian troop movements."
"They turned out to be images from video games. The latest accusations happen to be much the same quality."

Israeli Al-Aqsa Mosque policy triggered mass protests. Other reasons include Operation Protective Edge ruthlessness.
Settlement construction. Institutionalized racism. Treating Palestinians like subhumans. Peace process hypocrisy.
Targeted killings. Terrorizing community incursions. Mass arrests. Brutalizing political imprisonments. Torture. Settler violence and vandalism. Overall occupation harshness.
Decades of pent up outrage ignited public anger. People endure so much before exploding. Justifiably expressing rage.

Israel operates extrajudicially. Rule of law principles don't matter. Nonexistent security threats justify anything goes.
Palestinians are victimized for wanting to live free. Demanding fundamental civil and human rights everyone deserves.
Protesting throughout the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Largely peacefully.
Israel considers legitimate resistance "terrorism." Justifying iron fist harshness.
"We will respond to any attempt to undermine the order and stability of Israel's capital with an iron fist," Netanyahu said. Warning of "a prolonged battle."
