Captchas sind ja eigentlich schon die ganze Zeit sinnlos. ... "IndyWatch Feed Europe"

Captchas sind ja eigentlich schon die ganze Zeit sinnlos. Natrlich kann man mit Machine Learning erkennen, auf welchen Kacheln eine Ampel zu sehen ist. Das testet mitnichten, ob da ein Mensch sitzt.

In meiner Wahrnehmung gibt es Captchas auch nur noch mit bei Download-Diensten, die einen absichtlich zu Wartezeiten und Bullshit-Captchas ntigen, damit man das Premium-Abo abschliet.

Wenn mir eine Firma ein Captcha vor die Nase hlt, ist sie mich als Kunden jedenfalls los.

Egal, was ich eigentlich erzhlen wollte: GPT-4 hat einen Menschen berredet, ein Captcha zu lsen. Indem es ihn anlog, dass es eine Sehbehinderung hat und Hilfe braucht.

Ich finde, damit haben wir die Matrix erreicht. Menschen arbeiten fr Maschinen. Im Film erzeugen Menschen Energie fr Maschinen, in der Realitt sparen Menschen den Maschinen Energieverbrauch. Wobei nicht klar ist, ob die Bilderkennung mehr Strom gefressen htte als einmal das bekloppte Sprachmodell zu betreiben.

Dass die Bahn konsequent die Infrastruktur auf Verschlei gefahren hat, ist ja bekannt. Wenn sie die Wartung machen, ist das Geld weg. Wenn sie auf Verschlei fahren, bis der Schei in katastrophalem, Menschenleben gefhrdendem Zustand ist, dann zahlt der Bund. Die Bahn ist zwar brsig, aber blde sind die nicht.

Stellt sich ja schon die Frage, wie marode das alles inzwischen ist. Das hat der Bahnvorstand natrlich schon auf dem Radar, denn Bahnunflle mit Todesfolge sehen nicht gut aus. Da sollte man nicht mehr als 5-6 von pro Jahr haben!1!!

Hier ist die Einschtzung des Bahnvorstands zum Zustand des Bahn-Netzes.

Nach dieser Zhlung sind 26 Prozent aller Weichen der Bahn derzeit in einem schlechten, mangelhaften oder ungengenden Zustand, ebenso elf Prozent aller Brcken, 22 Prozent der Oberleitungen, 23 Prozent der Gleise, 42 Prozent aller Bahnbergnge und 48 Prozent aller Stellwerke.

Damit ist die Infrastruktur der Bahn in deutlich schlechterem Zustand als etwa die der Nachbarbahnen in sterreich oder der Schweiz, die seit Jahren bereits ein hnliches Notensystem praktizieren.

No shit! Das wird jetzt niemanden berraschen.

Na gut, fragt ihr euch jetzt vielleicht, was kostet das denn, wenn wir das mal reparieren wollten? Also rein hypothetisch jetzt.

Sy Hersh Slams Stupid NYT Story on Ukrainian Trace Behind Nord Stream Blasts "IndyWatch Feed War"

By Ilya Tsukanov Sputnik 18.03.2023

The veteran investigative journalist best known for blowing the lid off major US government lies, from Watergate and the My Lai Massacre to the Syrian gas attacks, penned a series of explosive Substack pieces last month revealing direct US complicity in the Nord Stream pipeline attacks.

Seymour Hersh says he has even more details corroborating the Biden administrations involvement in the Nord Stream sabotage attacks, but cannot share them for fear of outing his sources.

Biden authorized the blast. And the people involved know what he did. You know what orders came. I know a lot more about this than I want to say. But I have to protect the people who talk to me, Hersh said in an interview with Austrian media.

I know what I wrote is true. I know that it is right. I know the meetings I have described and the details of what happened in Norway. Ive been involved with the intelligence community for 50 years, the 85-year-old veteran journalist said, addressing the smear campaign being run against him by the legacy media in the wake of his bombshell Nord Stream-related publications.

Commenting on the story put out by The New York Times and German media earlier this month claiming that a pro-Ukrainian group without links to any state blew up the pipelines using a rented commercial yacht, Hersh called this crazy story with no sources.

The veteran investigative journalist, one of the few in the contemporary US media landscape who still believes in the medias role as the fourth estate, also took aim at the legacy media for ignoring his story in fealty to power. If 90 percent of editors were fired, wed be much better off, because theyre so afraid to write anything critical of Biden, thinking theyre going to put a Republican back in the White House, he said.

Hersh said the attack on Nord Stream was a signal to the Western Europeans from Biden that if they didnt want to go all the way in the conflict with Russia, the US would cut them off. He did it. And the price for that will be very high in Europe. Europe will not have the gas it needs and you will have to pay more for it, he said.

Hersh, a sympathizer of the Democratic Party when it comes to social, environmental, and immigration issues, characterized Bidens foreign policy as a disaster, with Washingtons badmouthing of China and Russia ultimately helping to weld the two of them together. As for the crisis in Ukraine, the journalist expects the NATO proxy conflict to fail. Russia is going to win this war, he said.

ICC Has Been Weaponized to Buttress US Imperialism & Deserves to be Abolished "IndyWatch Feed Africa"

By Svetlana Ekimenko Sputnik 18.03.2023

By issuing warrants of arrest against two senior Russian officials, including President Vladimir Putin, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has revealed its flagrant Western bias, Professor Alfred de Zayas, former UN independent expert on international order, has stated.

The decision of the International Criminal Court (ICC) to seek indictment of Russias President Vladimir Putin may be the last nail in the coffin of the ICCs credibility, according to Professor Alfred de Zayas, former UN independent expert on international order.

Based in the Dutch city of The Hague, the ICC on March 17 purported to charge Putin, as well as his childrens rights commissioner, Maria Lvova-Belova, with unlawful deportation of population and that of unlawful transfer of population over reports that Ukrainian children were taken from parts of western Russia that had previously seceded from Ukraine and joined the Russian Federation. Moscow has dismissed the ICCs warrants of arrest, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov repeatedly stating that Russia is not a party to the ICC and its jurisdiction is not recognized by Moscow.

No one from the West was ever indicted after the establishment of the ICC in 2002, Alfred de Zayas pointed out to Sputnik.

In 20 years it only indicted Africans and for that reason it was rightly called neo-colonial. Now it indicts Putin, revealing its flagrant Western bias. Since the entry into force of the Rome Statute there have been thousands of war crimes under the responsibility of NATO governments War crimes have been documented in NATO wars in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria. Why has no one ever been indicted there? the author of 10 books, including Building a Just World Order, asked.

At this point, the professor rolled off several names that he believed deserved indictment for a plethora of war crimes.

If the ICC indicts Putin, why not Tony Blair, George W. Bush, Barack Obama (the king of the drones), Donald Trump, Boris Johnson, Joe Biden

The current prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Asad Ahmad Khan KC, a British lawyer specializing in international criminal law who has served in the post since 2021, has blatantly demonstrated his bias by discontinuing investigation of war crimes by the US in Afghanistan, but continuing investigations against Taliban, Professor Alfred de Zayas clarified.

The prolific author also deplored the fact that while in his previous publications he had advocated fo...

My Lai, Killing Ideology, and Disobeying Orders "IndyWatch Feed War"

We werent there to kill human beings, really. We were there to kill ideology. (Lt. William Calley)

Officially termed an incident (as opposed to a massacre), the events of March 16, 1968, at My Lai a hamlet in South Vietnam are widely portrayed and accepted to this day as an aberration. While the catalog of U.S. war crimes in Southeast Asia is far too sordid and lengthy to detail here, its painfully clear this was not the case.

In fact, on the very same day that Lt. William Calley entered into infamy, another U.S. company entered My Khe, a sister sub hamlet of My Lai. That visit has been described as such:

In this other massacre, members of this separate company piled up a body count of perhaps a hundred peasants My Khe was smaller than My Lai flattened the village by dynamite and fire, and then threw handfuls of straw on corpses. The next morning, this company moved on down the Batangan Peninsula by the South China Sea, burning every hamlet they came to, killing water buffalo, pigs, chickens, and ducks, and destroying crops. As one of the My Khe veterans said later, what we were doing was being done all over. Said another: We were out there having a good time. It was sort of like being in a shooting gallery.

Colonel Oran Henderson, charged with covering up the My Lai killings, put it succinctly in 1971: Every unit of brigade size has its My Lai hidden someplace.

Of the 26 U.S. soldiers brought up on charges related to My Lai, only Calley was convicted. However, his life sentence was later reduced to three and a half years under house arrest.

Never forget, my friends: This is what were up against.

But lets also never forget the actions of a man named Hugh Thompson.

Tunisian President Kais Saied named the former governor of Tunis, Kamal Feki, as his new interior minister on Friday.

The appointment came just hours after Taoufik Charfeddine resigned from the post, amid a crackdown on prominent opposition figures that has prompted international condemnation, Reuters reported.

Feki, one of Saied's staunchest supporters, refused to grant a protest permit to the opposition Salvation Front coalition, saying that its leaders were involved in plotting against state security. Nevertheless, the interior ministry went ahead and allowed them to protest.

Saied's ally criticised the opposition several times, branding them "immoral and weightless".

Degenerates! "IndyWatch Feed Nthamerica"

Men these days have decayed from the power and virility of their forebears. Think of those mountain men whod go off into the wilderness alone and hunt and fish and trap and live off the land, to return after months or years with a sledge loaded with valuable animal pelts. They were awesomely self-sufficient. We have degraded over time, to the point where some men are little more than weak parasites on society who depend on others to tend to their frail, fragile selves and pathetic needs.

I speak, of course, of American conservatives.

These smug, self-satisfied little men chortle and laugh as theyre asked if they would rather do dishes or laundryand admit with an air of pride that they dont do either. Not only are they ineffectual and incapable, they are vain about their deficiencies. It makes them a special elite, I guess.

Listen. It makes them spineless atavisms.

Heres what a real man should be able to do:

  • Cook a healthy meal.
  • Clean up after themselves.
  • Maintain their clothing and their home.
  • Sew a button.
  • Humanely remove a spider from a room without squealing.
  • Change a diaper.
  • Have a relationship with a partner, not a servant.
  • Call their mother.
  • Cry when appropriate.

(This is what a real woman should be able to do, too, so maybe its a list of what real humans do.)

These guys have gone from whining about stand up straight and clean your room to bragging about their incompetence at elementary chores. I do all those things, including washing dishes and doing laundry, and Im a wokefied candy-ass liberal who uses pronouns.

On the bright side, American conservatives are on the road to extinction.

UK minister arrives in Rwanda on 'publicity stunt' trip to discuss deportation deal

Suella Braverman arrived in Rwanda on Saturday to meet with President Paul Kagame, who is under international pressure over rebel group sponsorship and the conviction of Paul Rusesabagina

British Home Secretary Suella Braverman arrives in Rwanda on Saturday 18 March (Anadolu Agency)

British Home Secretary Suella Braverman arrived in Rwanda on Saturday to discuss an agreement between the two countries to deport asylum seekers who arrive in the UK to the east African country.

The talks come as the UK faces legal challenges and sharp criticism from campaigners over the deal, while Rwandan President Paul Kagame is under international pressure over his government's support of the M23 rebel group, which is accused of perpetuating summary killings and rapes in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Braverman will meet Kagame on her first visit to Rwanda, and said that the removal of migrants could be put into action shortly. The Rwandan president is also subject to pressure from the United States over the rendition, trial and conviction of Paul Rusesabagina, hero of the Hollywood film Hotel Rwanda.

'This trip is another publicity stunt to keep the British government's cruel intentions, rather than its actual failures, in the news'

- Zoe Gardner, migration policy expert

The UK agreed to deport tens of thousands of migrants and refugees more than 4,000 miles away to Rwanda as part of a $146m deal last year, but no flights have taken off as the policy is being challenged in the courts.

The partnership is a major part of Britain's plans to detain and deport asylum seekers arriving in small boats across the English Channel, a proposal campaigners told Middle East Eye was "inhumane and unworkable", adding that it would criminalise the efforts of thousands of refugees.

Ross's gull from the Arctic makes rare visit to local beaches in Chicago "IndyWatch Feed World"

Her death was ruled accidental. Both of the Great Danes were euthanized after the attack, police said. A third dog at the property was not involved in the attack. A Pennsylvania State Police spokesperson said there is an active investigation into the attack, but declined to provide additional details.

Lust For Luxury: Yahya Jammehs Car Collection "IndyWatch Feed Africa"


By Stijn Mitzer and Joost Oliemans

''Western medicine says you can't cure asthma. I cure asthma in five minutes.'' (By Yahya Jammeh)
 
The Gambia's ousted President Yahya Jammeh had the curious distinction of having Africa's largest luxury car collection and the continent's largest VIP aircraft while being the head of the smallest country (within mainland Africa).

Europa Vernietigt Zichzelf (38) "IndyWatch Feed War"

De academisch geschoolde samenstellers van de Amerikaanse studie Why You Cant Teach United States History without American Indians (2015) stellen onmiddellijk in de Introductie dat:

The mission of this book is to change how historians teach U.S. history. Repeatedly, we hear faculty proclaim that they would include Indians if they were more central to mainstream history. This book is a resource that should help college teachers see the connections between American Indian history and the entirety of American history and enable them to recast their survey history classes from this vantage point. We hope that readers will find strategies in this book for incorporating Indian experiences and perspectives more fully in how we teach and study U.S. history and that it will serve as a touchstone for more public debate about the purpose and content of American history courses as they are currently taught.

'Unfathomable': Millions of dead fish blanket river near Menindee, Australia in latest mass kill "IndyWatch Feed World"

Millions of fish have died in another mass kill in the lower Darling-Baaka river near Menindee, in New South West's far west. Photos supplied by Menindee residents show dead fish - mostly bony bream, but also Murray cod, golden perch, silver perch and carp - blanketed across the river's surface. It is the latest in a series of large-scale fish deaths that have prompted questions about the management of water levels in the Murray-Darling Basin. Menindee residents who spoke with Guardian Australia on Friday said the latest fish kill appeared larger than previous mass deaths. About a million fish died during a sustained drought in the same area in 2019 after a rapid drop in temperature led to an algal bloom de-oxygenating the river. Resident Graeme McCrabb said the scale of the mass kill on Friday was "unfathomable". "It's horrendous here today," he said, speaking from the riverbank about 5km upstream of Menindee.

Meet the New Moteus BLDC Controller Board, the N1 "IndyWatch Feed Tech"

[Josh] over at mjbots just released a moteus-n1. One change is that the volume and footprint size has been reduced. Considering many people, [Josh] included, use these controllers to operate robotic dogs, smaller is better. The previous moteus controller maxed out at 44 V, but the n1 can run at up to 54 V, allowing use of 48 V power supplies. And [Josh] improved the interface circuitry, making it much more flexible than before. This comes at an increased price, but he sells both versions parts availability permitting. And like the previous versions of the moteus controller, this is an open source project and youre free to build it yourself. You can check out the complete design package at the projects GitHub repository.

One helpful point is that the firmware for the n1 is the same, it simply enables new features related to the I/O ports. This means a user could swap in a new controller with no impact to their system. Maintaining firmware compatibility was just one of the challenges [Josh] faced along the way. Squeezing addit...

Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu has said that Turkey would upgrade its diplomatic relations with Egypt to ambassador level "as soon as possible".

The remarks on Saturday were made at a joint news conference, alongside Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry, during the first visit to Cairo by Turkey's top diplomat since ties ruptured a decade ago.

"I'm very glad that we are taking concrete steps for normalising relations with Egypt... We will do our best not to rupture our ties again in future," Cavusoglu said.

"We will come to talks [on restoring ambassadors] at the appropriate time, depending on the positive results it brings," Shoukry added.

The meeting follows a visit by Shoukry to Turkey last month, in a show of solidarity after two devastating earthquakes killed more than 50,000 people across Turkey and Syria.

Relations between Ankara and Cairo have been severely strained for nearly a decade.

National Academies: We Cant Define Race, So Stop Using It in Science "IndyWatch Feed Tech"

For genetics, use scientifically relevant descriptions, not outdated social ideas:

With the advent of genomic studies, it's become ever more clear that humanity's genetic history is one of churn. Populations migrated, intermingled, and fragmented wherever they went, leaving us with a tangled genetic legacy that we often struggle to understand. The environmentin the form of disease, diet, and technologyalso played a critical role in shaping populations.

But this understanding is frequently at odds with the popular understanding, which often views genetics as a determinative factor and, far too often, interprets genetics in terms of race. Worse still, even though race cannot be defined or quantified scientifically, popular thinking creeps back into scientific thought, shaping the sort of research we do and how we interpret the results.

Those are some of the conclusions of a new report produced by the National Academies of Science. Done at the request of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the report calls for scientists and the agencies that fund them to stop thinking of genetics in terms of race, and instead to focus on things that can be determined scientifically.

The report is long overdue. Genetics data has revealed that the popular understanding of race, developed during a time when white supremacy was widely accepted, simply doesn't make any sense. In the popular view, for instance, "Black" represents a single, homogenous group. But genomic data makes clear that populations in Sub-Saharan Africa are the most genetically diverse on Earth.

And, like everywhere else, populations in this region haven't stayed static. While some groups remained isolated from each other, the vast Bantu expansion touched most of the continent. Along the coast of East Africa, the history of interchange with Mideastern traders can be detected in many groups. There's also a tendency to treat African Americans as being equivalent to African, when the former population carries the legacy of genetic mixing with European populationsoften not by choice.

Similar things are true for every population we have looked at, no matter where on the globe they reside. Treating any of these populations as a monolithic, uniform groupas a race, in other wordsmakes no scientific sense.

Students began protesting at Kirks planned venue at 5 PM, a small group that doubled in size every few minutes. Right-wing event attendees and streamers prodded the crowd with jeers and fake-outs while the student resistance performed pro-Trans, feminist, anti-racist, and anti-fascist chants. At 5:50 PM, a surge of new anti-Kirk activists poured in with banners and pushed to the event entrance, bringing the resistance crowd to between 250 and 300 people. A line of fifty or so Turning Point USA supporters were preparing for the event doors to open at 6 PM.

Beyond shouts, the groups didnt clash immediately. Attendees began trickling past the growing throng of riot police and into the event center. As police presence grew heavily, a quick and brutal arrest was made of an outlying activist, then a second. Six Proud Boys slowly peeked out before making their way into the field, some holding up white power symbols. The crowd jeered for them to come closer.

Mariposa monarca en Mxico: pequeos avances son an insuficientes para asegurar su conservacin "IndyWatch Feed Noramerica"

A la mariposa monarca se le sigue la pista desde hace 29 aos. Han sido casi tres dcadas de un monitoreo anual para conocer cul es el estado de su poblacin y tener claves que permitan entender un poco ms sobre su viaje migratorio que la lleva a recorrer 4 500 kilmetros, desde el norte del continente americano hasta los bosques de oyamel del centro de Mxico, donde pasa el invierno. Los ms recientes datos de ese monitoreo anual son alentadores, pero tambin recuerdan que an se est muy lejos de que la especie recupere la poblacin que tuvo hace algunos aos.

Durante la temporada invernal de 2021-2022, las colonias de mariposas monarca (Danaus plexippus) ocuparon 2.84 hectreas de los bosques de oyamel de Michoacn y el Estado de Mxico; un aumento del 35% de la superficie que se registr un ao antes.

Desde 2016, un comit de cientficos public un estudio en el que seal que para garantizar la conservacin de la especie y su fenmeno migratorio era necesario que las colonias de mariposas monarca ocuparan, por lo menos, seis hectreas de bosques en Mxico para 2020. Esa meta no se ha logrado.

El tener colonias de monarcas que ocupen, al menos, seis hectreas dara a la especie una mayor ventaja para lidiar con las abruptas disminuciones en su poblacin que se han registrado de un ao a otro, escribi en un reciente artculo la doctora Karen Oberhauser, especialista en biologa y conservacin de la mariposa monarca, de la Universidad de Wisconsin-Madison.

Kite Line: We Have to Stick Together "IndyWatch Feed Nthamerica"

Long-running abolitionist radio show and podcast Kite Line reports on the recent week of action against Cop City in so-called Atlanta, GA.

Listen and Download HERE

During a dramatic week of action in the Atlanta forest this past week, hundreds of forest defenders sabotaged a construction site for the unpopular Cop City development.  Police responded with an act of extreme collective punishment against the entire movement, attacking a nearby Stop Cop City music festival, tasing, beating, and arresting concertgoers at random.  34 people were detained, with 23 being charged with domestic terrorism, just for being present.  Maggie Gates, a 25-year old farmer from Bloomington, was tased and arrested and is now facing these charges.  People across the country and in Bloomington have mobilized in solidarity, contesting these disturbing charges and extreme police violence.  Other media outlets in Bloomington, such as the Herald-Times, have inaccurately reported that the arrests happened at the construction site project. This false statement has been repeatedly debunked, as Gates and the other arrestees were not arrested at the construction site, but rather at the music festival.

The movement in Atlanta remains unbowed, with continuing actions across the city and a large downtown rally organized by Community Movement Builders and Black Voters Matter.  Overhanging all of this is the police murder of Tortuguita in the Atlanta forest in January.  Police have stonewalled any investigation even as the police narrative has been undermined by emerging facts.  Tortuguitas family released the results of an independent autopsy showing that Tortuguita was sitting crosslegged and with their hands up when police shot them to death.  Among more than a dozen other wounds, they were shot in both palms.

Desapariciones masivas, secuestro, asesinato: el horror no para en Guanajuato y la autoridad siempre llega tarde "IndyWatch Feed Noramerica"

En 10 das de marzo, la entidad vive una ola de atrocidades:  seis mujeres desaparecidas de Celaya son encontradas muertas en una fosa; fiscala llega tarde a cateo y asesinan a empresario secuestrado; buscadoras rebasan a ministeriales que abandonan excavacin a media tarea

La crisis por violencia y desaparicin ahoga a Guanajuato, donde puede ocurrir que seis mujeres puedan desaparecer juntas en Celaya; que un joven empresario sea secuestrado a plena luz del da en Irapuato; que fosas clandestinas masivas cavadas por manos criminales surjan de las entraas de la tierra en Juventino Rosas y tambin en Irapuato, y que frente a todas esas vctimas, la Fiscala estatal y las corporaciones de los 3 niveles que operan una estrategia conjunta en el estado reaccionen cuando es demasiado tarde.

No es solo que esto pueda suceder. Todo pas en un lapso de nueve das, entre el 7 y el 16 de marzo. Un periodo en el que parecera que no hubo instancia, corporacin, autoridad o estrategia suficiente o capaz de frenar hechos delictivos que se suelen atribuir sin pudor alguno a las pugnas que desde hace aos mantienen a sus anchas en el estado los crteles de Santa Rosa de Lima y Jalisco Nueva Generacin.

Un lapso de silencio en el que destac la comparecencia del fiscal Carlos Zamarripa ante el Congreso y una bancada panista que lo elogi y felicit por su trabajo, incluso por sus investigaciones con perspectiva de gnero, como dijo la diputada Cristina Mrquez.

As, con muy escasas explicaciones de las autoridades, particularmente de la Fiscala estatal como responsable de las investigaciones, transcurri del 7 de marzo (en la vspera del da internacional de las mujeres, antes de que miles de ellas marcharan en ciudades del estado) cuando fueron vctimas de desaparicin en Celaya seis mujeres que se encontraban juntas, hasta el jueves 16, cuando una entrevista banquetera al fiscal Carlos Zamarripa revelara un golpe brutal para las familias que las buscaban y que haban denunciado las desapariciones: los restos de cinco de ellas se encontraron en fosas localizadas en la comunidad de Rincn de Centeno, en Juventino Rosas.

Varias de las familias se enteraron no directamente por alguien de la Fiscala, sino hasta que medios y redes sociales divulgaron las declaraciones del titular. 

Inicialmente, los hallazgos de restos humanos en estas fosas fueron reportados por la Fiscala el 10 de marzo y en un segundo parte informativo el martes 14. 

Entre ese lapso, pero en Irapuato, al medioda del domingo 12 el joven empresario Jair Martnez era obligado a salir de su auto y privado de su libertad por un grupo armado con trajes tcticos y armas largas, cuando se encontraba por la zona de hospitales entre las calles Reforma y Paseo Irapuato.

Tomorrow Biostasis: The Berlin Startup That Wants to Bring You Back from the Dead "IndyWatch Feed Tech"

What if death was not the end? What if, instead of saying our final goodbyes to loved ones, we could freeze their bodies and bring them back to life once medical technology has advanced enough to cure their fatal illnesses? This is the mission of Tomorrow Biostasis, a Berlin-based startup that specializes in cryopreservation.

Cryopreservation, also known as biostasis or cryonics, is the process of preserving a human body (or brain) in a state of suspended animation, with the hope that it can be revived in the future when medical technology has advanced enough to treat the original cause of death. This may seem like science fiction, but it is a legitimate scientific procedure, and Tomorrow Biostasis is one of the few companies in the world that offers this service.

Dr Emil Kendziorra, co-founder and CEO of Tomorrow Biostasis explained that the goal of cryopreservation is to extend life by preserving the body until a cure can be found for the original illness. He emphasized that cryopreservation is not a form of immortality, but rather a way to give people a second chance at life.

Reparations Are a Statist Cudgel for Bludgeoning Property Owners "IndyWatch Feed World"

Reparations Are a Statist Cudgel for Bludgeoning Property Owners By CLG Founder, Michael Rectenwald, Ph.D. | 16 March 2023 | (Opinion) San Francisco's panel on reparations has issued a recommendation that qualified black residents in that city receive $5 million in reparations for the financial effects of slavery and/or racial discrimination. There was never slavery in the city of San Francisco, but the panel nevertheless suggested that city inhabitants must atone for racial discrimination. Such calls for reparations to black people are based on the notion of collective white guilt. But collective guilt is a false notion, and reparations based on it would violate the property rights of those whose ancestors gained nothing from slavery, even if such parties benefited from so-called discrimination... Just as class guilt is a fatally flawed concept, so too is race guilt. If one gained nothing from slaveholding or trading, one does not owe a debt to a nebulous class of slave descendants. The execution of reparations on the grounds of collective race guilt would amount to theft of property from the rightful holders of it.

The False Tale of TWA 800 "IndyWatch Feed War"

Tales of the American Empire | March 16, 2023

Those who control the United States government also control the major media and educational institutions so often create false realities. Anyone who questions obvious lies is demeaned and branded a conspiracy theorist. The best example in modern times occurred in 1996 when a US Navy missile accidentally shot down a huge airliner killing 230 people. The federal government and its lapdog media managed to suppress what happened despite overwhelming physical evidence and hundreds of eyewitnesses.

Last Town To Nowhere "IndyWatch Feed War"

[Stung Treng, 3/11/23]

Linh Dinh Substack March 14, 2023

My trip to Stung Treng was much more stressful than expected. In fact, an overworked yet much cursed part of my body deserves the highest medal. Just dont pin it on him. Arriving, I couldnt get off my mini bus a second too soon. Seeing an elegant yet cheap looking hotel across the street, I immediately checked in.

Do you want to see the room first? a man in mid 40s asked.

No, its fine. Im exhausted, I bravely grinned. Just give me the damn key if you know whats good for you, me and your weird yet reasonably clean lobby.

During my six-month stay in Albania, I loved each place visited, with the exception of overly touristy Sarande. The smaller and more remote towns I particularly adored. Kukes, Gramsh and Librazhd come to mind. Though I stood out even more pronouncedly, I met the loveliest and warmest people. Arriving in goofy Stung Treng, I immediately thought of those Albanian gems.

Im not sure Stung Treng qualifies as pulverized amethyst even, but it sure has lots of character, starting with Samheap Guest House. For just $14 a night, I get a room with air conditioning, fan and a television, with no more than three or four channels, probably, all with maximum static and pixelation, plus overlays of plaintive voices from long deceased galaxies. Doesnt matter. I dont watch TV.

In hot countries, the first to get air conditioning were lardy assed hotel guests from cooler climes, with one exception. In North Vietnam, the first to enjoy climate control was Uncle Ho, but only after death, in his mausoleum.

I also get my own bathroom. I wont perturb you with too stark a description, but heres a brief sketch. Theres no hot water or toilet tank cover, so to flush, I must manually depress the trip lever. Since this serves to wash two finger tips, thus saving water, its a green solution. Im sure the UN, WHO and WEF would agree. Ideally, we should only flush the toilet after every tenth use, to save whats left of this trashed planet, if not our nose or health.

What else? The sink trap leaks, as does a hose from my air conditioner. I have no idea what its called. AC colon? Along with some mosquitoes and a loud gecko, I see Gregor Samsa often. Since I dont even have a peanut inside, he must be some cockroach sadhu. Mind over matter. After all, I did manage to accomplish just that on my trip....

Say what?? $80 BILLION in funding for Black Lives Matter and associated causes? "IndyWatch Feed Africa"

Jon Rappoport Substack.com March 16, 2023

Stunning. Astonishing. Staggering. Couldnt be. Impossible.

Newsweek op-ed, March 15:

Americans Deserve To Know Who Funded BLM Riots

Today the Claremont Institutes Center for the American Way of Life published the most comprehensive database to date tracking corporate contributions and pledges to the Black Lives Matter movement and related causes from 2020 to the present. Companies and corporations pledged or contributed an astonishing $82.9 billion to the BLM movement and related causes. This includes more than $123 million to the BLM parent organizations directly. These figures, while shocking, likely underrepresent the true magnitude of the shakedown as some companies failed to make known their contributions, and many BLM organizations remain unknown.

As a point of reference, $82.9 billion is more than the GDP of 46 African countries. In 2022, the Ford Motor Companys profits were $23 billion.

You can access the Claremont Institutes massive database of contributors here (BLM Funding Database)

I see that JP Morgan Chase has committed $30 billion to associated causes, such as the creation of low-cost housing for underserved communities. So there may be some debate over the meaning of associated causes.

But you would think $80 billion is solving many problems of the underserved, who are definitely being SERVED with this money. However, you would be wrong, if you look at whats happening in Americas inner cities. Crime, gangs, drugs are still high-profile features.

So where is all that money actually going?

A few things are clear:

Who has raised money for Black Lives Matter? "IndyWatch Feed War"

Jon Rappoport Jon Rappoport Substack.com March 17, 2023

In the light of yesterdays article about a staggering $80 BILLION in corporate funding for Black Lives Matter and associated causes, I thought we should look at an actual BLM money-raiser.

She might constitute a clue about where some of that BLM money is actually going.

Buckle up for

A true insurrection, the bomb that exploded in the Capitol Building, a terrorist, and Black Lives Matter

ONE: Susan Rosenberg is a key figure who has been involved in the administration and funding of Black Lives Matter.

TWO: She has quite a life story. A long chapter would describe her work with a very active terrorist group.

THREE: In 1983, that group exploded a bomb in the Capitol Building.

FOUR: The bomb makes the January 6, 2021, break-in look like a picnic in the park.

This is not fiction. If a studio made a movie of the events, the plot line sketch would state: terrorist; her group exploded a powerful bomb just outside the Senate chamber in the Capitol Building; she was sentenced to 58 years on other explosives charges; sentence commuted by Bill Clinton; flash forwardshes helping fund and administer Black Lives Matter.

The Smithsonian Magazine describes the Senate bombing:

Just before 11 p.m. on November 7, 1983, they [M19, an all-female terrorist group, in which Susan Rosenberg was an important member] called the U.S. Capitol switchboard and warned them to evacuate the building. Ten minutes later, a bomb detonated in the buildings north wing, harming no one but blasting a 15-foot gash in a wall and causing $1 million in damage.

The US Senate archive of history:

The Senate had planned to work late into the evening of Monday, November 7, 1983.  Deliberations proceeded more smoothly than expected, however, so the body adjourned at 7:02 p.m.  A crowded reception, held near the Senate Chamber, broke up two hours later.  Consequently, at 10:58 p.m., when a thunderous explosion tore through the second floor of the Capitols north wing, the adjacent halls were virtually deserted.  Many lives had been spared.

The force of the device, hidden under a bench at the eastern end of the corridor outside the chamber, blew off the door to the office of Democratic Leader Robert C. Byrd.  The blast also punched a potentially lethal hole in a wall partition sending a shower of pulverized brick, plaster, and glass into the Republican cloakroom.  Although the explosion caused no structural damage to the Capitol, it shattered mirrors, chandeliers, and furniture.  Officials calculated damages of $250,000.

When Mary Wollstonecraft Was Duped by Love

A spotlight on the personal life of the trailblazing philosopher.

BY REGAN PENALUNA

March 15, 2023


One windy day in June 1795, Mary Wollstonecraft, her 1-year-old daughter, and her nanny, with a small crew of men, pushed off in a boat into rough waters from a port on the eastern shore of England. Wollstonecrafts baby wriggled in her arms as the boat rocked and swayed in the gigantic gray waves of the North Sea. Yet Wollstonecraft would not be deterred by the dangers of the passage. This was an opportunity for her to write about her travels and to capitalize on her reflections by selling her stories. When the jagged shoreline of Sweden finally appeared after days of endless ocean, she began to record her observations.

Wollstonecraft wrote about how traveling as an unattached woman could be unsettling: when she had to stay at the cabin of a strange man.1 It could be demeaning: During a dinner conversation, her male host complimented her for asking mens questions.2 And it could be enraging: when she learned...

75-Year-Olds White Hair Turns Black, Doctor Explains Why

Mar 28 2022

https://www.theepochtimes.com/health/75-year-olds-white-hair-turns-black-doctor-explains-why_4367754.html?

Dr. Kuo Ta-Wei, Director of Fu Yuan Chinese Medicine Clinic, told us a story that made us rethink whether our white hair is here to stay.

In an integrated Chinese and Western therapy program during the acute treatment of stroke, there was a 75-year old woman who was paralyzed and motionless. We did the scalp acupuncture to stimulate the activation of acupoints, Dr. Kuo said.

During her hospitalization, the white hair surrounding the scalp acupuncture points completely turned black. After she recovered, she said she looked younger after the stroke, he said. Because head acupuncture treatment helps to vitalize the body, enhances the metabolism, and especially stimulates the hair follicles, her gray hair gradually turned into black.


Not everyone can go get scalp acupuncture, but a good scalp massage with a comb or fingertips can similarly vitalize the scalp, Dr. Kuo said.

Sun Simiao, the king of medicine in the Tang Dynasty, had 13 rules to good health. The first rule was to comb your hair often, and to comb it from the front of the scalp to the back, Dr. Kuo said. Well, even if you dont have a comb, you can rub your hands until theyre warm, and massage your scalp from the front to the back...

Ukraine Burns Through Ammunition in Bakhmut, Risking Future Fights "IndyWatch Feed War"

Introduction March 17, 2023

While the Corporate Western news media is no longer trying to disguise the difficulties faced by Ukrainian forces, we believe that they are MASSIVELY OVER-ESTIMATING Russian casualties.

The following NYT report claims that over 200,000 Russians have been killed or wounded since the start of the war. That figure was probably concocted by Western intelligence, who have a vested in how this war is perceived in the West.

Thats where MSM journalists and publications like the New York Times come in. So while Ukraine casualties may indeed be near 100,000 dead, we suspect that Russian casualties may be a fraction of that.

Of course, thats not something I can confirm but bear in mind as you read the following that the Western MSM is being instructed and informed by Western intelligence and various interest groups with a view to the West entering the fray at some point. Thats why they want to maximise the perception of Russian casualties, at least in the eyes of the average Westerner so they wont be too daunted by the prospect of war with Russia.

The globalist need us to see Russians as potential adversaries who can be defeated. Ed.

By Thomas Gibbons-Neff, Lara Jakes and Eric Schmitt New York Times March 16, 2023

The Ukrainian military is firing thousands of artillery shells a day as it tries to hold the eastern city of Bakhmut, a pace that American and European officials say is unsustainable and could jeopardize a planned springtime campaign that they hope will prove decisive.

The bombardment has been so intense that the Pentagon raised concerns with Kyiv recently after several days of nonstop artillery firing, two U.S. officials said, highlighting the tension between Ukraines decision to defend Bakhmut at all costs and its hopes for retaking territory in the spring. One of those officials said the Americans warned Ukraine against wasting ammunition at a key time.

With so much riding on a Ukrainian counteroffensive, the United States and Britain are preparing to ship thousands of NATO and Soviet-type artillery rounds and rockets to help shore up supplies for a coming Ukrainian offensive.

But a senior American defense official described that as a last-ditch effort because Ukraines allies do not have enough ammunition to keep up with Ukraines pace and their stocks are critically low. Western manufacturers are ramping up production, but it will take many months for new supplies to begin meeting demand.

This has put Kyiv in an increasingly perilous position: Its troops are likely to have one meaningful opportunity this year to go on the offensive, push back Russian forces and ret...

Children Dying at Highest Rate in Decades, Researchers Warn "IndyWatch Feed War"

Frank Bergman Slay News March 17, 2023

Researchers are raising the alarm after a bombshell new study revealed that American teens and young children are dying at the highest levels seen in decades.

The studys findings were published this week in the world-renowned Journal of the American Medical Association.

The researchers found that the mortality rate for minors aged 1 through 19 soared by almost 20% between 2020 and 2022.

As the study notes, this alarming spike cannot be ascribed to the COVID-19 virus.

As Slay News has been reporting, America and other nations around the world have seen sudden death rates skyrocket for all ages over the last couple of years.

Lawmakers in Japan have just revealed that the country is now suffering the highest number of excess deaths since World War 2.

Last summer, a data study found that the average life expectancy in America had dropped significantly for the second year in a row.

According to data collected by the National Center for Health Statistics, the average American was expected at birth to live to 78 years and 10 months in 2019.

That figure dropped to 77 years in 2020.

In 2022, the life expectancy for the U.S. population stood at 76 years and one month.

The life expectancy for Americans is now at the lowest age since 1996.

Not only are American geriatrics dying younger on average, but the nations youth are dying with greater frequency.

Prior to 2020, the trend saw life expectancy lengthen every year over the course of the 20th century.

Between 2019 and the end of 2021, the mortality rate for youths aged 1 through 19 increased by 19%.

Researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine and the University of Washingtons department of epidemiology noted that while persons ages 10-19 were driving the spike in the pediatric mortality rate, all-cause mortality also jumped by 8.4% in children ages 1-9 in 2021.

Babies under one-year-old were standouts, however, having not suffered an increase in mortality.

Some may argue that the spike is due to children dying from Covid due to the timeline.

However, the researchers noted that this reversal in the pediatric mortality trajectory was caused not...

Leftist Politician Fined for Faking Neo-Nazi Hate Crimes Against Himself "IndyWatch Feed War"

Peter Caddle Breibart March 17, 2023

A politician for Germanys left-wing Green party has been fined $3,800 for faking neo-nazi hate crimes against himself.

Manoj Jansen, a former councillor for the German Greens, was handed a 3,600 (~$3,814) fine by a court in Germany on Wednesday after it was found that he had faked a number of neo-nazi hate crimes against himself.

Jansen had claimed that he was the victim of repeated far-right attacks and hate crimes, with the politician reportedly having his property vandalised and emblazoned with swastikas and SS runes by suspected neo-nazis.

However, authorities came to the conclusion that the immigration-heritage leftist politician had likely faked the alleged hate incidents last September, with some local publications have since reported that at least one of the swastikas said to have been painted onto Jansens car were the wrong way around.

Although the Green politician eventually did admit to faking at least some of the crimes, he and his legal council reportedly rejected attempts by authorities to fine him.

During a court hearing on Wednesday however, Bild reports that this fine has now been upheld, with Jansen reportedly dropping their objection to the punishment after a private conversation between his lawyer and the presiding judge.

Jansen is said to have made a big show during the hearing, however, breaking down crying during the hearing while shielding his face with printed-out newspaper articles.

The former councillor was said to have eventually been handed a handkerchief by his lawyer.

Wednesdays court hearing appears to conclude a particularly embarrassing saga for Germanys ruling progressives.

When the original news about the hate crimes against Jansen broke in the summer of last year, politicians across the cou...

DOD spends nearly $50 million a year 'to do nothing' with Trump's border wall materials, drawing GOP backlash "IndyWatch Feed World"

DOD spends nearly $50 million a year 'to do nothing' with Trump's border wall materials, drawing GOP backlash --DOD is spending around $130,000 a day to store materials after Biden canceled Trump's border wall construction project | 16 March 2023 | The Biden administration spends about $130,000 per day to store and maintain unused border wall panels at the southern border, and Senate Republicans are demanding answers. Republican members of the Senate Armed Forces Committee -- using details provided to them in a request for information to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) -- sent a letter Wednesday evening to the Defense Department asking why nearly $50 million is being spent each year to store the Trump-era border materials. Led by ranking member Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., and signed by Texas Sens. Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, along with nearly every other Republican on the committee, the senators wrote that they "are disturbed to learn the Department of Defense is paying private landowners to store border wall materials procured under the Trump Administration instead of fortifying the southern border with those materials."

EPA orders states to accept waste from Ohio train derailment site "IndyWatch Feed World"

EPA orders states to accept waste from Ohio train derailment site | 17 March 2023 | The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ordered states with approved and available toxic waste facilities to accept materials transported from the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio. The move, announced by EPA director Michael Regan at a news conference Friday morning, comes after governors in Oklahoma, Michigan and other states have recently turned away shipments. The EPA also ordered Norfolk Southern to move faster to get the toxic waste out of the area. The two new EPA orders requires Norfolk Southern to speed up the removal process and requires contractors to take legal action against EPA-licensed disposal facilities that refuse to honor their contracts. Every state has been notified that states cannot stop shipments of out-of-state waste from East Palestine, Regan said.

La izquierda espaola, de la solidaridad con la Nicaragua sandinista al desencanto "IndyWatch Feed Noramerica"

Excooperantes y referentes polticos progresistas denuncian la deriva autoritaria de un gobierno al que ya no consideran de izquierdas: Callarse hoy es un acto de cobarda

Desde Bilbao/Madrid

La Revolucin Sandinista gener en 1979 una extraordinaria ola de entusiasmo en la izquierda mundial. El Frente Sandinista de Liberacin Nacional (FSLN) pona fin a la sangrienta saga dictatorial de los Somoza y se embarcaba en una profunda transformacin social del pas con el respaldo mayoritario de la poblacin. Gracias a las redes de solidaridad que el Frente haba ido tejiendo en Espaa, miles de cooperantes se movilizaron en los aos 80 para colaborar a pie de obra en un proceso revolucionario en marcha.

Pero a raz de la derrota electoral del FSLN en 1990 y de las divisiones internas, el apoyo exterior fue diluyndose. El regreso al poder de Daniel Ortega en 2007 y sus alianzas con los sectores ms retrgrados de la Iglesia y la derecha marcaran un punto de inflexin en la mirada de la izquierda internacional hacia un rgimen que se situaba ya en las antpodas del ideario sandinista.

De izquierda a derecha: Luis Guridi, Maribi Lamas, Clara Murguialday y Vctor Santiago Pozas, quienes participaron como brigadistas vascos en los aos ochenta en Nicaragua.

Impregnado de un rancio misticismo esotrico, el tndem conformado por Daniel Ortega y su esposa, Rosario Murillo, adopt un programa socialista y cristiano que, en la prctica, abrazaba las polticas neoliberales mientras aplastaba cualquier forma de disidencia interna. La brutal represin de las protestas de abril de 2018 (en las que murieron ms de 300 manifestantes, segn la Asociacin Nicaragense Pro Derechos Humanos) o la reciente expulsin del pas de 222 presos polticos configuran una manera de gobernar totalmente contraria a los valores de justicia social que preconizaba el sandinismo.

Esa deriva autoritaria ha ido haciendo mella en la percepcin de Nicaragua por parte de la izquierda espaola. El desencanto ha dado paso en los ltimos tiempos a la crtica y la condena por los abusos de un gobierno al que ya no se le puede tildar de izquierdas, como expresan antiguos cooperantes y varios referentes polticos del arco progresista espaol consultados para la elaboracin de este reportaje.

'I'm Back!': Trump makes first post on Facebook in years as YouTube restores account "IndyWatch Feed World"

'I'm Back!': Trump makes first post on Facebook in years as YouTube restores account | 17 March 2023 | Former President Donald Trump on Friday made his first post on Facebook since the platform restored his account in February. The short, 12-second video post, titled "I'm Back!," included a clip from the 2016 election night, showing the moment Trump first appeared to celebrate his win. "Sorry to keep you waiting, complicated business," he said. The post comes the same day that video-sharing platform YouTube restored former Trump's account after a more than two-year suspension. The platform, like virtually all other social media companies, suspended the former president in January of 2021, following the Jan. 6 Capitol Riot.

Wyoming governor signs law outlawing use of abortion pills | 17 March 2023 | Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon on Friday signed into law a bill outlawing the use or prescription of medication abortion pills that was passed by the state's Republican-controlled legislature earlier this month. Gordon, a Republican, signed the law as a federal judge in Texas considers ordering a nationwide ban on the abortion pill mifepristone in response to a lawsuit by anti-abortion groups. The crux of the two-page Wyoming bill is a provision making it illegal to "prescribe, dispense, distribute, sell or use any drug for the purpose of procuring or performing an abortion."

When is a crime not a crime? "IndyWatch Feed World"

On Monday, Suella Braverman published draft guidance designed to rein in the police habit of recording a 'non-crime hate incident' (NCHI) against a person's name whenever someone accuses them of doing something politically incorrect. You may think I'm exaggerating, but in 2017 an NCHI was recorded against Amber Rudd, then the home secretary, after an Oxford professor complained about her references to 'migrant workers' in a Tory party conference speech. NCHIs can show up on an enhanced criminal record check even though, by definition, the person hasn't committed a crime. The concept first surfaced in guidance published by the College of Policing in 2014 and within five years 119,934 non-crime hate incidents had been recorded by 34 police forces in England and Wales, according to FoI requests submitted by the Telegraph. Nine police forces didn't respond, but if we assume they were logging NCHIs on the same scale, it's likely that more than a quarter of a million have been recorded...

Tournament axed after Russian inclusion "IndyWatch Feed World"

A tournament under the jurisdiction of the Fdration Internationale d'Escrime (FIE) scheduled for Germany in May has been canceled after the federation voted to allow the inclusion of competitors from Russia and Belarus. Sportspeople from both countries have been banned from taking part in many major sporting events for the past year, following advice issued by the International Olympic Committee soon after the launch of Russia's military action in Ukraine in February 2022. The directive was subsequently adopted by various other sporting federations, resulting in the blacklisting of Russia and Belarus from several sports. The FIE, however, voted in favor last week of reinstating Russian and Belarusians to its events, with the upcoming event in Germany being among the first major tournaments at which they would have been eligible to compete.

De la virtualidad tan usada, pasamos al paradigma digital de la vida. Nadie puede abrazar a un holograma. Y la cultura represora est perfeccionando los mecanismos para que lo que todava se llama presencialidad, sea un arcasmo inoperante. La pandemia es el discurso justificatorio por el cual pasamos a otro plano en la construccin de los vnculos.

El origen de la humanidad humana, es decir los colectivos, primero de cazadores recolectores, luego de agricultores, tiende a un destino de un individualismo autismo digitalizado.

Hace dcadas Paul Watzlawick se preguntaba: Es real la realidad? Hoy tenemos la respuesta. NO. La realidad es digital.

Blinken's Africa Visit Seeks to Compete with China, Russia; Attempt May End up Being Futile

By Zhao Yusha

Mar 17, 2023 12:12 AM

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's visit to Ethiopia and Niger, the latest in a series of visits to Africa by senior Biden administration officials, exposed the US intention of competing with China and Russia over influence in the region. However, experts warned that Washington's attempt may be futile, as discord between the US and Ethiopia is yet to be resolved, and being forced to take sides is not welcome in the region.

Blinken arrived late Tuesday in Ethiopia, which marked the highest-ranking US visit to the country since conflict broke out in late 2020 between the Ethiopian government and the rebel Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF).

When meeting with Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, Blinken praised Ethiopia on Wednesday for its progress in implementing a peace deal to end the Tigray conflict, but stopped short of ushering the country back into a US trade program.

During the conflict, the US accused the Ethiopian government of possible war crimes and suspended Ethiopia's participation in an accord that offered duty-free access for most of its exports, which frayed Washington's ties with Addis Ababa.

Over the past few years, attacks have surged in the region, where the borders of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger converge, threatening the health and safety of a hard-hit civilian population.

Choosing Ethiopia and Niger as destinations for the visit sends a clear signal that Washington is seeking a bigger influence in the continent so that it can compete with China and Russia, said Song Wei, a professor at the school of international relations and diplomacy at Beijing Foreign Studies University. She explained that Ethiopia, Africa's second most populous nation, has numerous economic and political cooperation projects with China, while Niger has close ties with Russia in military cooperation.

The navies of China, Iran and Russia are holding a joint maritime exercise starting Wednesday in a move to enhance cooperation as well as to safeguard maritime security and regional peace.

Based on the consensus reached by the armed forces of China, Iran and Russia, the navies of the three countries will be holding the Security Belt-2023 joint maritime military exercise from Wednesday to Sunday in the Gulf of Oman, China's Ministry of National Defense (MOD) said in a statement on Wednesday.

The Security Belt-2023 joint naval drill is a development of the two joint naval drills among China, Iran and Russia held in 2019 and 2022, with the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy dispatching the guided missile destroyer Nanning to the exercise, mainly participating in training courses including aerial search, maritime rescue and maritime march past, reads the MOD statement.

The latest exercise will be conducive to deepening the pragmatic cooperation among the participating navies, in addition to further demonstrating their willingness and capability in safeguarding maritime security and actively building a maritime community with a shared future, bringing in positive energy to regional peace and stability, said the MOD statement.

The main training courses are search and rescue, and the Gulf of Oman is a region full of maritime transportation routes used by many countries in the world, so the drills are of positive significance in jointly safeguarding international sea lanes, Zhang Junshe, a senior research fellow at the Nava...

U.S. 'obviously' blew up Nord Stream - French politician --Norway also had a profit motive to join the alleged American plot, Florian Philippot has claimed | 17 March 2023 | French political party leader Florian Philippot believes it has long been obvious that the U.S. was behind last year's sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines, which were built to deliver Russian natural gas to Western Europe. "Even before the war in Ukraine, the US for years fought against Nord Stream, it was a permanent part of their policy," he told RIA Novosti in an interview published on Friday.

The White House Might be Running Out of Time to Bring Back Net Neutrality "IndyWatch Feed Tech"

A bruising, failed 16-month FCC nomination has left President Joe Biden with little time to staff up the agency before 2024:

Shortly after coming into office, President Joe Biden moved to restore net neutrality. He signed a sweeping executive order to promote competition, calling on the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to bring back the Obama-era internet rules rolled back by the Trump administration.

But close to two years later, the FCC remains deadlocked with only four of its five commissioner slots filled and Biden may be running out of time.

Biden's pick for a new FCC commissioner was Gigi Sohn, a former FCC official and public interest advocate. Sohn would have secured a long-awaited Democratic majority at the agency. After she was nominated in October 2021, however, a well-funded opposition organized a brutal opposition campaign against her. The culture-war campaign called Sohn an "extremist" and a "censor" because of past tweets criticizing Fox News and former President Donald Trump, largely ignoring her decades-long professional record. After more than 16 months and three separate confirmation hearings, Sohn withdrew her nomination earlier this month, citing the "unrelenting, dishonest and cruel attacks" by broadband and cable lobbyists and their friends.

It's unlikely Biden will pick someone as critical of cable companies again but Republicans could try to thwart even a centrist candidate

Now, the White House has been forced to start over, prolonging a vacancy that continues to obstruct the administration's broadband agenda. The White House hasn't announced a new nominee or when they're hoping to confirm someone, but it's unlikely that Biden would pick someone as critical of cable companies as Sohn. Republicans and "dark money" groups have already proved that they're willing to spend millions to block progressive nominees. With so little time left in Biden's first term, stakeholders may even try to thwart a more moderate nominee, especially if there's an opportunity to continue the stalemate past the 2024 election.

President Xi Jinping will pay a state visit to Russia from Monday to Wednesday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying announced on Friday. President Xi's upcoming visit to Russia, viewed as a trip of friendship, cooperation and peace, is expected to further promote China-Russia cooperation and contribute to global peace and development, analysts said.

At the invitation of Russian President Vladimir Putin, President Xi will pay a state visit to Russia from March 20 to 22, according to the announcement.

During his upcoming visit to Russia, President Xi will have an in-depth exchange of views with President Putin on bilateral relations and major international and regional issues of mutual interest, boost strategic coordination and practical cooperation between the two countries and inject new impetus into the growth of bilateral relations, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said at the regular press conference on Friday.

China and Russia will continue to practice true multilateralism, promote greater democracy in international relations, work toward building a multi-polar world, improve global governance and contribute to development and progress in the world, Wang.

The upcoming visit to Russia is of great significance, as it takes place after Xi was elected as president and chairman of the Central Military Commission (CMC) of China at the third plenary meeting of the first session of the 14th National People's Congress (NPC) and this will also be his first overseas visit in 2023, analysts said.

While the world is undergoing drastic changes and the Ukraine crisis has continued for over a year, China has released a position paper on the political settlement of the Ukraine crisis and global security initiative concept paper. Xi's visit of friendship, cooperation and peace will also show China's efforts in promoting peace and talks, they noted.

At the invitation of President Vladimir Putin of the Russian Federation, Chinese President Xi Jinping will pay a state visit to Russia from March 20 to 22. After the visit in 2013, once again, Xi has made Russia the destination of his first overseas trip after being elected as Chinese president. The Russia tour will further deepen strategic mutual trust and mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Russia, which will not only benefit the two countries and their peoples, but also bring more certainty to the international community amid numerous risks. It will be a trip of peace, friendship and cooperation. 

Against the backdrop of the escalating Ukraine crisis and intensifying geopolitical tensions worldwide, the visit has attracted special attention from the international community and in the realm of public opinion. The news, when it was released on Friday afternoon, immediately sparked extensive interpretation and analysis, with many reports focusing on what role this visit will play in promoting peace talks and negotiations in the Ukraine crisis. The expectations from the international community toward China's head-of-state diplomacy can be strongly felt.

It should be pointed out that the Chinese and Russian heads of state have maintained a deep personal friendship and frequent interactions, and it is customary for the leaders of the two countries to visit each other every year. This visit falls within the scope of bilateral relations between China and Russia, and the focus is on further promoting and leading the continuous high-level development of the bilateral relationship. In other words, with or without the Ukraine crisis, the leaders of China and Russia will maintain normal exchanges and interactions. Fundamentally speaking, this is because the two countries have established a solid political, economic, and cultural foundatio...

GT Voice: US Hooligan Nature Laid Bare in Forced Divesting of TikTok

By Global Times

Mar 16, 2023 10:38 PM

Photo: VCG

There has been an absurd development of the political farce surrounding the crackdown on TikTok, which has recently been playing out in the US and spreading to Canada and some EU countries.

The Biden administration has threatened to ban TikTok if its Chinese owners don't divest their stakes in the popular video app, Reuters reported on Wednesday.

Even though TikTok has tried its best and done almost everything possible within the technical range in response to the so-called national security concerns, it remains helpless in the face of Washington's economic vandalism. The message is clear: if Washington cannot see TikTok ending up in an American hand, it will shut it down. Judging by the various bans and legislation involving TikTok that US politicians have been working on, it is not impossible for the worst to happen.

Yet, the Emperor's New Clothes surrounding national security concerns cannot hide US politicians' selfish and hooligan nature. The US claims that TikTok threatens to undermine US national security, but there is no evidence at all supporting the killing or robbery of such a globally successful app on national security grounds. The fact that Washington can suppress and even rob TikTok without justification and only because it is owned by a Chinese company is the latest manifestation that in order to maintain the US hegemony, Washington can make any rogue behavior that is against the law and business rules. This could serve as a wake-up call to companies around the world about the political risks of doing business in the US. If they are successful enough to pose a real challenge to American business titans, a rogue government in Washington will start finding fault with them.

TikTok has been seeking various technical solutions to soothe the so-called national security concerns. For instance, it has committed to spend $1.5 billion on a plan known as "Project Texas," which would enact a stronger firewall between TikTok and employees of its Beijing p...

Brazils Lula to Visit China to Enhance Economic Ties Amid Global Turbulence

At the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping, Brazilian President Luiz Incio Lula da Silva will make a state visit to China later this month, the Chinese Foreign Ministry announced Friday. Economic cooperation will be a key topic during the visit, experts said, noting that enhanced cooperation between the two sides will help boost the confidence of the international community in economic recovery in the post-pandemic era.  

Lula will visit China from March 26 to 31, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying announced.

The visit comes at a critical time in the post pandemic era. Economic cooperation between China and Brazil will be one of key topics to be touched on during his visit, Pan Deng, executive director of the Latin American and Caribbean Region Law Center of China University of Political Science and Law, told the Global Times on Friday.

"Mutual communications and boosting the economy are of great significance to reshaping and boosting confidence in the international economic order as a whole in the post pandemic era," Pan said.

Lula was sworn in as president of Brazil for the third time in January. 

Experts predicted that under the presidency of the veteran left-wing politician, who is also an old friend of China, economic and trade cooperation between China and Brazil will be further deepened, which will help ease Brazil's predicament of high inflation and low economic growth. 

Mutual trust between China and Brazil on bilateral cooperation under the framework of the emerging-market bloc BRICS, as well as cooperation on economy and trade, environmental protection, the green economy and other fields is expected to be brought to a higher level, observers said.

Brazil is a responsible major power and rising power that shares common pursuits, a similar development phase and a complem...

US Official Visits Honduras 'to Soothe DPP' Out of Outdated Monroe Doctrine

The US Special Presidential Adviser for the Americas, Christopher Dodd, on Friday started a trip to Central America with a stop in Honduras, which is widely believed to be a move aimed at pressuring the country and soothing the secessionist Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities in the island of Taiwan. 

On Wednesday, China said it welcomed the latest remarks by Honduran President Xiomara Castro, who said her country is seeking to establish diplomatic relations with China. Some experts believe that with Central American countries enjoying increasing dividends due to their cooperation with China, it is just a matter of time before the remaining countries sever "diplomatic ties" with the Taiwan island.

The move is nothing new - During the 2021 Honduras election campaigns, then-president candidate Xiomara Castro expressed a will to foster ties with Beijing. The US then sent a high-level delegation to the country before the election started to make clear that Washington expected Honduras to maintain "diplomatic" ties with Taiwan.

The US' obstruction is not surprising, Chinese observers said, underlining that the major historical trend is irreversible and the US' capability of manipulating Latin America is becoming weaker, while the secessionist agenda stemming from US collusion with the DPP authorities is becoming less and less popular. 

According to the US State Department, Dodd will attend the 63rd Inter-American Development Bank annual meetings in Panama and meet with bank and regional finance leaders, as well as Panamanian officials. In Honduras, Dodd will meet with Honduran officials and private sector representatives. These visits advance the commitment of the US to foster inclusive economic growth, democracy, human rights, and rule of law in the Western Hemisphere.

It is unclear whether Dodd's trip, announced on Thursday, was pre-scheduled to include a stop in Honduras or mad...

China Ramps Up Sci-tech Self-reliance Drive with Establishment of New Central Commission

By GT staff reporters

Mar 17, 2023 11:10 PM

China has announced to establish a central commission that will be in charge of reviewing major national strategies for scientific and technological development, one of the most powerful changes to the country's innovation system in decades and which paves the way for the rollout of more policies to achieve core technological breakthroughs, experts said.

The commission's establishment, part of a series of recently announced institutional reforms, is also seen by many as a response to a toughening crackdown from Western countries targeting China's tech companies ranging from Huawei to TikTok, as the world's second largest economy goes all out to break Western countries' scientific blockade in pursuit of "self-reliance" in the tech sector.

The new commission, named the Central Commission for Science and Technology, will enhance the CPC Central Committee's centralized and unified leadership over the work of science and technology, according to a plan released by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on reforming Party and state institutions, the Xinhua News Agency reported on Thursday.

Its functions include pushing forward the building of a national innovation system and structural scientific and technological reform, studying and deliberating major strategies, plans and policies for the country's sci-tech development, and coordinating efforts to resolve major issues of strategic, guiding and fundamental significance in the sci-tech sector.

It will also coordinate the deployment of strategic scientific and technological forces such as national laboratories, the plan said.

The responsibilities of the working body of the new commission are borne by the restructured Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST). A number of leadership groups related to science and technology have been scrapped.

Technological breakthroughs

According to experts, the establishment of the commission signals another lift to the strategic positi...

6 Brutally Honest Reasons Why I Keep Cutting People Out Of My Life "IndyWatch Feed World"

Once upon a time, I wouldnt cut anyone out of my life. There were many times that I would excuse the worst behavior in the name of loyalty, and now, that is no longer who I am.

Do not get me wrong, I still consider myself to be a loyal person. However, sometimes that means I need to be loyal to myself first and foremost. Throughout my life, there were times when I ignored the red flags and let people take advantage of me because I thought that somewhere within them, there was light. Many times over, I found out that some people just arent meant to be in my life.

Below, I will go over 6 brutally honest reasons why I have started cutting people out of my life.

1. No shared moral ground.

There is a huge difference between having a few differences and having completely different morals and ethics. At the end of the day, it is nearly impossible to be around someone who sees the world in a completely different light than you do. Now, dont get me wrong, I can accept that people have different morals, I just prefer not to share my space and time with them regularly.

2. I noticed legit red flags.

As soon as I notice red flags like lying, manipulation, a continued victim mentality, abuse, etc., I am done. Far too many times have I let someone tell me a sob story and then take advantage of me or the people I love. I will no longer stand for this.

3. Disrespect.

When someone continues to disrespect you, they are telling you who they are and while once upon a time, I didnt listen, I do now. If someone disrespects me, I am out.

4. I simply dont have time for games.

I refuse to play games. If I notice someone who is always pitting people against each other, gossiping about me and my friends, or always trying to stir the pot, they are out.

5. Dishonesty.

Dishonesty is a big deal to me because if you are dishonest to me, I cannot take you seriously. After all, I cannot trust you. Without trust, I cannot have you in my life.

6. They are taking more than they are giving.

Some people are natural-born givers and some are takers. In life, there should be a balance. However, if I notice someone just keeps taking and taking and taking and never gives back, they are likely going to get the boot right on out of my life.

The First Full Moon Of Spring Is Coming Causing Chaos Under The Surface "IndyWatch Feed World"

Its getting close to springtime and while that means that flowers will begin to bloom, days will grow longer and life will begin to spring back into action once more, it also means that the pink moon is drawing closer. On April 6th, the full moon will be upon us, and it is under the sign of Libra.

The April full moon is traditionally called the full Pink moon because, during the times in which native tribes were figuring out the world around them, they used different names to understand the moon and the time of year surrounding it. Due to the beautiful pink blooms on the flowers that would begin to grow during this time, they dubbed the moon the Pink moon.

This moon has a lot of meaning behind it, far beyond that. One interesting thing worth noting is that during this time, the Sun is in Aries and the moon is in Libra. Aries represents the self and Libra represents others, according to Cafe Astrology, and during this time, we need to strike a balance between ourselves and our relationships.

During this time, it is important to make sure you arent attending to only your needs and allowing others to fall behind, and that you arent doing the opposite either. There is a need for balance to have a healthy relationship with yourself and with others. The key is harmony. Additionally, during this time, you can expect major epiphanies surrounding your relationships.

Uranus will be in harmony with the Sun and the moon, and Jupiter and Chiron will be in alignment with the Sun during this lunation. This will push us forward onto the path of healing, which will aid in finding harmony from within and also within our relationships.
