Investigating Horrific US War Crime Against Afghan Hospital Staff and Patients
by Stephen Lendman
On October 3, US warplanes knowingly and deliberately bombed a Kunduz, Afghanistan hospital repeatedly for over an hour, the facility staffed by Doctors Without Borders (MSF) physicians and other medical personnel.
A previous article said let’s not mince words. Multiple US air strikes were willful acts of mass-murder, a horrific war crime demanding accountability.
The death toll rose to 24, another 37 injured. Doctors, other medical staff and patients died. Nine patients remain unaccounted for. Two or more unable to be moved were immolated in their beds - burned alive by US imperialism.
MSF rejects Washington’s hollow apologies and condolences. They’re meaningless, disgusting and insulting. Pentagon investigations when conducted are automatically whitewashed to absolve guilty parties of blame.
European Council Backs US Imperial Policy on Syria
by Stephen Lendman
EU heads of state comprise the European Council (EC), Donald Tusk its current president since December 2014.
Political and military developments in Syria were discussed at the EC’s October 15 meeting, among other pressing issues, EU leaders ignoring Obama’s war, saying in a statement issued:
“The Assad regime bears the greatest responsibility for the 250,000 deaths of the conflict and the millions of displaced people.”
“The EU is fully engaged in finding a political solution to the conflict in close cooperation with the UN and the countries of the region and calls on all parties involved to work to that effect.”
Israelis Urged to Carry Guns to Murder Palestinians
by Stephen Lendman
Israel may always be seen as a ruthless pariah state after over 15 years of Sharon, Olmert, Netanyahu rule, each responsible for mass-murdering Palestinians unaccountably.
Their resistance against injustice is heroic - challenging nearly 7 decades of vicious persecution, victimized by endless Nakba, Israeli state terror against their right to exist.
Netanyahu ordered the entire West Bank and East Jerusalem militarized, Abbas-deployed Palestinian security forces complicit with his ongoing reign of terror. His pathetic Wednesday night address the latest example of his longstanding duplicity - saying one thing, doing something entirely different, showing again he’s a stooge for Israeli ruthlessness, a shameless illegitimate leader with no credibility whatever.
Putin Is Right Saying US Officials Have Mush for Brains
by Stephen Lendman
He fully understands they have pure evil intent in their hearts and minds. Rogue hegemons think and act this way - tolerating no one challenging their ruthless policies.
The New York Times and other Western media quoted Putin blasting US policy responsibly. He diplomatically uses the phrase “American partners” knowing no partnership exists.
US/Russian relations are adversarial because Washington wants them this way. Putin is polar opposite, urging mutual cooperation among all nations - the way all responsible world leaders think and act.
Rogue ones like America demand obedience and subservience, independent governments going their own way not tolerated, endless wars of aggression waged to replace them with US-controlled puppet regimes.
US Political Debates: Flim Flam Theater
by Stephen Lendman
Political debates are pre-scripted, well-rehearsed theater, especially presidential ones. They don’t edify. They insult. Avoid them. You’ll learn nothing.
Slogans, posturing, and meaningless rhetoric substitute for substance, especially on issues mattering most. Candidates avoid controversy. Forthrightness isn’t their long suit.
Staged PR theater called “debates” give unworthy candidates a platform for willful deception - demagoguery, making promises later broken if elected. Why anyone wastes time watching this stuff they’ll have to explain.
America’s political process at the federal, state and local levels is too corrupted to fix - a money-controlled one-party system with two wings, a democracy in name only.
Iran and Hezbollah to Launch Ground Offensive in Syria?
by Stephen Lendman
On October 13, Reuters cited two unnamed regional officials saying their forces along with Syrian ones “will soon launch a ground attack supported by Russian air strikes against (ISIS and other terrorists) in the Aleppo area.”
According to one of the unnamed sources, “(t)he big battle preparations in that area are clear. There is a large mobilization of the Syrian army… elite Hezbollah fighters, and thousands of Iranians who arrived in stages in recent days.” A second official close to Damascus said “(t)he decision to launch the battle of Aleppo has been taken…It is no longer hidden that thousands of Iranians are now in Syria and their role is fundamental.”
Obama Could Stop Israeli State Terror with One Phone Call He Won’t Make
by Stephen Lendman
Washington supports ongoing Israeli violence against defenseless Palestinians. It wouldn’t be happening otherwise.
One phone call from Obama to Netanyahu demanding an immediate halt to Israeli lawlessness, making it clear Washington won’t tolerate it, would change everything now ongoing.
It continues because of full US support. Don’t let duplicitous comments from John Kerry’s State Department spokesman, Admiral John Kirby, fool you - claiming Kerry “remain(s) deeply concerned by the continued escalated violence.” At the same time, revealing Washington’s official policy by “condemning the (Palestinian) terrorists attacks against Israelis.”
An OPEN LETTER To Donald Trump
Donald Trump Is Advised To Speak The Truth As No Candidate In Modern American History
The Millenium Report Editor’s Note: It does not get any more serious than the following open letter. Regardless of whether the reader is a fan of Donald Trump, the extraordinary import of this piece is so catalyic and potentially far-reaching that it ought to be disseminated as no other. Truly, the upcoming 2016 presidential election will be the most consequential in U.S. history. Hence, the very purpose of this letter is of utmost importance.
We have been informed that the following “Open Letter” has been emailed to Donald Trump’s Chief of Staff among other key members of this campaign staff. Please be aware that this particlular group of American patriots — the Concerned Citizens of the USA — is as serious as it gets.
An OPEN LETTER To Donald Trump
Dear Donald Trump,
Greetings from the 50 States and other Territories. We acknowledge your unrivaled courage and honor your many initiatives to reveal the facts. Thank you! We extend our sincere gratitude to you and your family for being a source of truth and light in the political darkness of falsehood.
First and foremost we are addressing you as the only open and honest presidential candidate throughout the current campaign season. This nation has not seen any presidential aspirant so transparent and forthcoming as you have been. Please know that were it not for your quite politically incorrect posture, this letter would not have been written.
Israel’s Killing Machine Takes More Palestinian Lives
by Stephen Lendman
On Saturday, the toll reached 20 Palestinian children, youths and women murdered by Israel since October 1 alone. Expect numbers to keep rising, maybe exponentially, given Netanyahu rage to mass-murder, brutalize an entire population, and blame Palestinians for his high crimes.
His dirty game relies on a litany of Big Lies, blaming Palestinians for Israeli state terror, getting most people to believe it because they never hear another mainstream message, not from Israeli officials, Western ones or go-along presstitute media. Upside down reality portrays Israel as the good guy, Palestinians as terrorists, Netanyahu committed to end their “incitement.”
Anti-Palestinian Viciousness Rages
by Stephen Lendman
Israel bears full responsibility for premeditated violence and brutality, unleashed without mercy against defenseless Palestinians - reminiscent of how Nazis persecuted Jews.
Decades of vicious Israeli persecution explains the root cause of ongoing turmoil. People take so much before reacting in self-defense.
The trigger for things exploding now is multifold, a combination of:
days of Israeli soldiers and police rampaging through the sacred Al Aqsa Mosque, brutalizing worshipers, forcibly removing them so extremist settlers could enter the compound where they don’t belong;
- longstanding repressive security force viciousness; and
vigilante settler thuggishness, near daily violence and vandalism against Palestinians ignored or supporting by Israeli soldiers and police: the most horrendous example was immolating three Dawabsha family members, Israel knowing the perpetrators, yet refusing to arrest them, while at the same time kidnapping Palestinians and charging them with offenses they didn’t commit or are too minor to matter.
