Russian Humanitarian Aid Reaches Lugansk

August 23rd, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

Kiev putschists blocked vitally needed humanitarian aid for days. They did so for spurious reasons.

They did it to impose greater hardships on desperate Southeastern Ukrainians. They did it to deprive them of essentials to life.

They did it to facilitate their genocidal aggression. They did it with full support and encouragement from Washington.

Enough is enough. On August 22, Itar Tass headlined "Russia's 70 trucks with humanitarian cargo proceed toward toward Ukraine's Luhansk," saying:

They cleared customs. They entered Ukrainian territory. They headed for Lugansk. They did so on a mission of mercy.

They carried food, water, medical supplies and other vitally needed aid. Kiev claims about a Trojan Horse convoy of weapons were spurious on their face.

World Humanitarian Day Hypocrisy

August 23rd, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

The day honors humanitarian workers killed in the line of duty.

The General Assembly designated August 19 as part of a Swedish-sponsored resolution on the Strengthening of the Coordination of Emergency Assistance of the UN.

It commemorates the day in 2003 when US terror-bombing killed then Special Representative of the Secretary-General to Iraq, Sergio Vieira, and 21 of his colleagues.

They perished in Baghdad's UN headquarters. More on World Humanitarian Day (WHD) below.

On August 19, the White House issued a hypocritical “Statement by the Principal Deputy Press Secretary on World Humanitarian Day," saying:

"Eleven years ago today, 22 humanitarian aid workers were killed in a horrific attack on the UN Headquarters in Baghdad. Their lives were cut short as they worked selflessly to save others."

Fact: Washington's 2003 Operation Iraqi Freedom Iraq War bore full responsibility for killing them.

Fact: Doing so reflected US imperial ruthlessness.

Fact: From then until now, millions more Iraqis died.

Child Protective Services Violate Public Trust; Judges Rule Against Children’s Welfare

Saving Jonah

Is Your Child at Risk for Court Licensed Torture and Sex Trafficking?

From Lexi Dillon to Jonah Rief, American kids are being sex trafficked out of the United States to rich buyers in foreign lands. This is a multi-billion dollar business and those leaders charged with protecting our children have failed to do their jobs. Shockingly, American judges routinely open the doors to trafficking of the youngest most innocent American children.

In the case of Lexi Dillon, the Tustin Police could not stop a corrupt Orange County Judge James L. Waltz and his successor from handing her over to a man experts insisted had repeatedly sodomized and raped the girl. The evidence of sodomy and rape was clear and supported by medical evidence, by doctors records, by psychological reports and by the police investigation. Judge Glenn Salter announced that lifting the travel ban would be tantamount to putting Lexi into sex slavery in Thailand prior to Salter, himself, lifting the travel ban and ordering the girl sent out of the country to her foreign abuser who is not allowed back into the country.

To prevent the mother from locating the girl and stopping her removal from the U.S, it appears that the sex- trafficking operation is being diverted through Napa County, CA. Lexi’s Tustin apartment was secretly vacated some time back in violation of court orders and it is now believed that Judge Salter, in supporting the man the police say raped and sodomized Lexi, now nine years old, he was following the orders of Judge Waltz.

Western Leaders Support Israeli Genocide

August 22nd, 2014

By Stephen Lendman

Longstanding US-led Western support lets Israel get away with genocidal mass murder and destruction. More on this below.

Israel's Operation Protective Edge is the latest example of well planned, premeditated Israeli aggression on Palestine.

It has nothing to do with Hamas rocket attacks, self-defense or security.

It has everything to do with maintaining occupation harshness, assuring unchallenged control of all valued parts of Judea and Samaria, denying Palestinians self-determination, stealing their land and resources, as well as pursuing a longstanding Greater Israel objective. Israel believes its "promised land" extends from the Nile Valley to the Euphrates. It includes parts of Syria, Jordan and Lebanon at least to the Litani River.

It lawlessly occupies Syria's Golan Heights, as well as Lebanon's Ghajar village and 14-square mile water-rich Sheba Farms.

Israel's Genocidal War Continues

August 22nd, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

On Tuesday, peace talks collapsed. Israel sabotaged them. It refused to negotiate in good faith. It's longstanding Israeli practice.

Straightaway fighting resumed. Hamas rockets are pinpricks compared to merciless Israeli air, ground and sea attacks.

Sophisticated weapons cause mass slaughter and destruction. Through early evening Wednesday Gaza time, at least 24 more Palestinians were reported killed.

They're mostly civilians. They include women and children. The Palestinian death toll exceeds 2,040. Over 10,200 were injured. Many seriously. Some will die. Casualties keep mounting.

Life for many thousands of Gazans won't ever be the same. Many lost homes and all their possessions. Losing loved ones matters most.

Global Warriors Revisiting Iraq’s Wounds to Destroy the Arab World

August 21st, 2014

Dr. Mahboob A. Khawaja

Warriors Continuing More Wars in the Arab world

Long ago, John Adams describing how the British lost America noted: “the pride and vanity of that nation is a disease; it is a delirium, it has been flattered and inflamed so long by themselves and others that it perverts everything.” Wars are not a prelude to peace but kill people and undermine the habitat for the living human beings, destroy humanity by raging coercive man’s instinct - animosity of each against all and of all against each, accumulative madness practically denying all prospects of peace and co-existence. Previous wars of centuries were aimed at annihilation of political and economic enemies but the 21st century conflicts are ready-made recipes not only to eliminate the mankind but also the environment in which human beings survive and the planet Earth that sustains life. Given the strategic know-how and the scientific-technological advancements, it is an established fact that any futuristic global warfare will end the very existence of man and humanity on this planet. Is it not the same march to folly that President Obama is making the history? William Astore, a retired lieutenant colonel (USAF), is an editor of blog The Contrary Perspective and speaks of the American cult embedded in bombing (“The American Cult of Bombing.” Tom Dispatch and Information Clearing House: 8/19/2014):

Ferguson, Ethnicity and American Idealism

August 21st, 2014

by Tracy Turner

The 4-decades after the Watt's riots were a period of growth ultimately resulting in an African American President and First Family as well as black journalists such as Glenn Ford; numerous black judges in all branches of courts including the Supreme Court and in the House and Senate.

Quoted from USA Today, "FERGUSON, Mo. — St. Louis County prosecutors plan to begin presenting evidence Wednesday to a local grand jury as part of an investigation into the fatal shooting of Michael Brown, a spokesman said Tuesday.

Edward Magee, spokesman for St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch, said local investigators have interviewed Ferguson police Officer Darren Wilson and he will be "offered the opportunity'' to testify if he chooses.”

KIev's Dirty War

August 21st, 2014

by Stephen Lendman

Rogue terror states wage wars the same way. America does it. So does Israel.

Kiev's illegitimate fascist government operates extrajudicially. Rule of law principles don't apply.

Dirty war is waged on its own non-combatant men, women and children. Residential neighborhoods are bombed and shelled.

Banned chemical and other terror weapons are used. Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) member of parliament Miroslav Rudenko said:

"According to our soldiers' information, the Ukrainian forces are using chemical ammunition on DPR territory."

"Once a shell bursts, a gas affecting sense organs is emitted. We have this information."

In early June, Southeastern Ukrainian freedom fighters said Kiev forces attacked Semyonovka near Slaviansk with an unknown chemical weapon.

Failure in Cairo

Failure in Cairo

by Stephen Lendman

It didn't surprise. Failure was inevitable. Talks were dead on arrival. Israeli policy is hardline. It's all take and no give.

Rogue terror states operate this way. Israel is one of the worst. It's a democracy in name only.

It treats Palestinians like subhumans. It considers its Arab citizens fifth column threats.

It ignores fundamental international laws. It violates them repeatedly. It does so unaccountably.

Its negotiators were told to maintain status quo conditions at all costs. Demand everything. Give little or nothing in return.

Delay, make new demands, and deny Palestinians what they most want and deserve. Long denied justice remains elusive.

A Summary of the Situation in Embattled 'New Russia,' Ukraine's Southeast

August 20th, 2014

Video: A Summary of the Situation in the Embattled Novorossiya

Translation from Russian by Alan and Alya Bailey, Subtitles by Marcel Sardo / Edited by Olga L. and Gleb Bazov

Alexey Mozgovoy: The peaceful population is being eliminated using missiles. These actions make the civilian population leave their homes. So, generally speaking, Kiev does not need the population; it is irrelevant in the area where they plan to conduct fracking.

There’s already a drilling rig in Slavyansk and it’s starting its work. The equipment for building the rigs has already been delivered to a little settlement near Slavyansk. So what use is there for the population? It’s not needed there. The complete elimination of the population is being covered up by the so-called ATO [Anti-Terrorist Operation -- the 'terrorists' are the local residents there].
