Ukraine Putschists Like Chile’s Pinochet Regime
Stephen Lendman
According to Russia’s upper house Federation Council first deputy defense and security committee chairman, Franz Klintsevich, US-installed Kiev putschists are as ruthless as Chile under Pinochet - following the Nixon administration’s 9/11/73 coup, elevating him to power.
Klintsevich called illegal arrests, torture, detentions in secret prisons and disappearances daily occurrences - Ukraine’s security service, its SBU national Gestapo, responsible for what’s happening.
State terror overrides everything for full control, he explained. Comparison to 17 brutal years under Pinochet is chilling.
A climate of fear included mass arrests, disappearances, torture and murder. Opposition government officials, academics, union heads, independent journalists, student leaders, activists, and other suspected regime opponents were eliminated.
A story in The Times of London highlighted what’s ongoing, headlined “Kiev allows torture and runs secret jails, says UN.”
US Falsely Calls Iran Leading State Sponsor of Terrorism
Stephen Lendman
Propaganda works because when repeated enough most people believe it.
The disturbing irony of the latest State Department annual report on terrorism finds the world’s leading state sponsor, America, accusing Iran, threatening no one, without just cause. The same false accusation repeats annually.
The Islamic Republic hasn’t attacked another country throughout its history. It threatens none now. No evidence links it to terrorism.
The State Department’s report was falsified rubbish, more proof of US hostility toward Iranian sovereign independence, wanting pro-Western tyranny replacing it, an Israeli rival eliminated, the nation’s huge oil and gas reserves looted, its people exploited - at the same time diminishing Russia’s regional influence.
German Media Breakthrough on 28 Pages Exposé of Saudi Backing for 9/11 Killers
Executive Intelligence Review
June 2, 2016 (EIRNS)-The widely-watched German WDR TV program "Monitor" last night had a 10-minute blockbuster http://www1.wdr.de/daserste/monitor/videos/video-die-hintermaenner-von--das-geheimnis-der--pages-100.html special with an exclusive interview with former U.S. Sen. Bob Graham (D-FL) on the classified 28-page chapter of the Joint Congressional Inquiry into 9/11, which is said to reveal the Saudi role in the 9/11 attacks on the United States. Then-Senator Graham, as chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, was the co-chair of 2002 Joint Inquiry. The whole interview, which includes previous statements by U.S. Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY), and former Navy Secretary John Lehman, who was a member of the later 9/11 Commission, to the effect that once the 28 pages are released the entire 9/11 story will have to be rewritten, with the role of Saudi Arabia right in the middle of it, which were said to be revealed in that 28 page chapter. By refusing to release the 28 pages classified by President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama, the Monitor broadcast says, they demonstrate the hypocrisy of their war on terrorism. Furthermore they say that the Saudis not only supported the 9/11 terrorists that but also Islamic extremists all over the world.
Human Rights Watch Calls for Investigating Israeli High Crimes
Stephen Lendman
Nearly 50 years of Israeli occupation viciousness are too many. HRW called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to “formal(l)y investigat(e) serious international crimes” committed by Israel against Palestinians throughout its history - in compliance with its Rome Statute obligation.
The ICC earlier “shed light on the grave nature of many of the crimes and the pervasive climate of impunity for such offenses,” said HRW.“After nearly a half century of impunity, it’s time that those responsible for some of the gravest crimes to pay the price,” HRW’s Sarah Leah Whitson stressed.
“The ICC prosecutor should move forward and investigate the crimes so that the victims can obtain a measure of justice that has long eluded them.”
B’Tselem Stops Filing Complaints, Calls Israeli Law Enforcement a Whitewash Mechanism
Stephen Lendman
With rare exceptions, Israel violates the letter and spirit of international law and its own when it comes to Palestinian rights.
Extremist settlers commit assaults and vandalism against them with virtual impunity. Occupied Palestinians and Arab citizens are treated one way, Jews another, justice entirely denied, things today worse than ever.
Arab-hating fascists running Israel created hellish conditions for Palestinians, treating them the way Hitler treated Jews.For over 25 years, B’Tselem reported abusive treatment to Israel’s Military Advocate General (MAG), a fruitless effort for justice, its noblel one now ended, the group saying “there is no longer any point” in seeking judicial redress under a system whitewashing crimes of Jews against Palestinians.
Neocon Washington Post Editors Urge Get Tough on Russia and China Policy
Stephen Lendman
A previous article said US media scoundrels make street whores look good by comparison - featuring managed news misinformation and Big Lies, suppressing what’s most important to report, fully and accurately.
WaPo editors rank with the worst. Their editorial policy long ago fell from grace - openly fronting for wealth, power and privilege, notoriously hawkish, militantly anti-Russia and China, most recently in their June 7 editorial, saying:
“A different kind of (iron) curtain is descending, denying billions of people…basic…freedom. No longer is it about the rise of communism, but rather the rise of despots who rule by force and coercion.”
US Waging Naked Aggression on Syria, Draws UN Praise
Stephen Lendman
Syria’s war isn’t civil as widely misreported. It’s Obama’s war, naked aggression, launched in March 2011 using ISIS and likeminded groups - supported by US air power and special forces, waging phony war on terrorism.
Since last September, Russia alone among world powers has been waging real war on its scourge in Syria, wanting it defeated, kept from spreading - regionally and to the Russian Federation’s heartland. Moscow’s main adversaries aren’t ISIS and other terrorist groups. They’re America, NATO and regional rogue states, backing the scourge they claim to oppose - enlisting death squads, imported from scores of countries, heavily armed and provided with other material support, defying Russia’s righteous mission.
What Russia Should Tell America
Stephen Lendman
Russia continues the futility of negotiating with Washington in good faith - its adversary, not partner, wanting its government toppled, pro-Western tyranny replacing it.
Sergey Lavrov is Moscow’s foreign policy point man. It’s time for him to discard diplomatic niceties and tell John Kerry negotiating with him wastes time. It won’t continue.
He should say henceforth on Syria and other geopolitical issues, Russia intends acting unilaterally, in good faith, supporting its allies forthrightly, defending its interests responsibly, acting in full compliance with international law - not breaching it the way Washington does consistently.
Ceasefire in Syria was ill-conceived, a trap to let US-supported anti-Assad terrorists regroup, rearm and replenish their ranks.
Palestinian Political Prisoner Marwan Barghouti Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize
Stephen Lendman
Barghouti is Palestine’s most prominent political figure, a courageous freedom fighter, an advocate of resisting illegal Israeli occupation, why he was targeted in the first place.
In May 2004, he was wrongfully convicted on phony terrorism charges - receiving five consecutive life sentences plus 40 years.
Rigged show trial proceedings denied judicial fairness. Barghouti remains wrongfully imprisoned, victimized by Israeli viciousness.
Earlier he called himself “a political leader, a member of the Palestinian Legislative Council, elected by my people. Israel has no right to try me, to accuse me, to judge me."
"This is a violation of international law. I have a (legal) right to resist occupation."
Following his October 2002 indictment, he said “(t)he State of Israel is directly and indirectly criminally responsible for committing specific acts of genocide, ethnic cleansing, including uprooting Palestinians by military attacks, arbitrary arrests and illegal imprisonment, administrative detention, attacks on women, children and the elderly, systematic and wanton destruction of property and homes, (and) systematic expropriation and dispossession…”
Clinton Chosen Democrat Party Nominee Last Year
Stephen Lendman
The Democrat party campaign was over before it began. On April 15, 2015, Clinton and Sanders both formally announced their candidacy to become party standard bearer this November.
Primaries and caucuses since last winter were largely theatrical noise, the process rigged to anoint Clinton - an unindicted neocon war criminal, racketeer, Wall Street tool she devil, a menace threatening world peace, a perfect choice for US president, following in the despicable tradition of husband Bill, George W. Bush and Obama.The possibility of her becoming America’s 45th president should scare everyone. Her finger on the nuclear trigger heightens the possibility of it being squeezed - the nation under her stewardship, if elected, transitioning from MAD to madness, humanity’s survival at risk.
