Media does not hold them accountable because they are political allies

BY VINAY PRASAD | OBSERVATIONS AND THOUGHTS | APRIL 29, 2023

I always say that the most common way people change their mind is that they rewrite their memories and imagine they always agreed with you. Years ago, we published a provocative paper that qualified the percent of cancer patients eligible for genomic drugs. (it was ~8%), and the same doctors who had until recently claimed that these drugs have changed care for most people, were quick to say, I always said only a fraction are eligible. Sure you did, buddy. Sure you did.

To some degree, it is forgivable. The human ego is strong, and it is hard for many to admit they were wrong. When it comes to everyday Americans, I support their right to mis-remember their historical views on COVID19 policy. In fact, I predicted a great swing on this issue specifically schools.

But, my concession does not extend to the architects of school closure. The experts who went on TV and repeatedly scared the public out of sending their kids to schools, and scared Governors, districts and teachers out of their duty to kids. These people should be remember as being on the wrong side of history, and receive the punishment they deserve: being precluded from shaping policy every again.

That includes Anthony Fauci and Randi Weingarten two people who are doing an aggressive media campaign to distance themselves from the policies they set in motion.

One of Faucis defenses is that he just gave advice, and did not shut anything down. This is contradicted by the fact that he previously took credit for lockdowns, and specifically noted that in early march 2020, Trump faithfully followed his advice.

Of course the NIAID director and WH Covid counsel member has a special responsibility to give good advice, and should know the probability his advice shapes policy is high.

Additionally, he controls a multibillion dollar research budget. Why did he run zero RCTs of masking? School reopening? Distancing? Cohorting? Busing? Ventilation? That was entirely in his power, and there is no excuse for giving advice while not studying your advice, when you control the entire research budget!

Faucis next claim is that he always wanted schools reopened. This is contradicted by a detailed timeline of his position on schools, which was consistently to fearmonger about k...

Why the disturbing discovery of DNA contamination with plasmids poses a severe risk to the mRNA  vaccinated and the people around them

Written by the WCH Health and Science Committee | April 27, 2023

The following article is the World Council for Healths summary and interpretation of the conclusions of the outstanding paper by McKernan et al (2023): Sequencing of bivalent Moderna and Pfizer mRNA vaccines reveals nanogram to microgram quantities of expression vector dsDNA per dose

Another red line has been crossed

In a recent publication by a group of experienced geneticists, more contamination in mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna), excluding metal residues, which had been identified in the past, was found. Multiple methods highlighted high levels of DNA contamination.

Of special concern was that they found replicable DNA, so-called plasmids, in both the monovalent and bivalent vaccines, which should not be there at all. This time the researchers found DNA contamination that far exceeded the European Medicines Agency (EMA) requirement and the U.S. FDAs dose requirements.

But why is this find so alarming?

The Threat of DNA Integration

As we knew from the beginning, Covid-19 (C19) injections have been a gene therapy, and the definition of a vaccine had to be altered to call them a vaccine. While we are still told of the safety and the effectiveness of the injections, Swedish researchers have shown that the mRNA of the Pfizer vaccine was integrated into liver cells.

This raised many eyebrows about whether the interference with our genome could pose the risk of integration of the mRNA coding into our genome. Usually, the body needs an enzyme called reverse transcriptase to do so. But now, findings of this new paper suggest a different scenario in which DNA integration may occur.

The Role of So-Called Plasmids

Plasmids are circular DNA that enable bacteria to exchange information. When scientists became aware of this, they soon started using these plasmids to produce custom-made proteins by genetically modifying their information. This is, for example, how insulin is currently produced. Plasmids are also the production site of the novel mRNA used in the Covid-19 injections. Once the DNA templates or plasmids are transcribed into strands of mRNA the injection vials should be filtered out to prevent continuous production of the information. Yet these plasmids are precisely wha...

For more than eight years, I did my wash in the same laundromat. Called Sparkle Plenty, it was a relic. It first opened in 1973 and appeared as if the decor had never been altered (and rarely cleaned).

Its changed hands a few times over the years but when I first encountered it in 2006, Sparkle Plenty was owned and operated by a Chinese couple who appeared to be in their mid-60s. She was almost always smiling and pleasant. He seemed lost in a perpetual scowl and heaven forbid you told him that one of his machines ate your quarters.

Despite his bellicose demeanor, I remained a customer while many others found a new place to clean their clothes (Astoria is teeming with laundromats). Why was I loyal? Firstly, its less than a block away. Also, the dryers ran so hot, Id be done in no time.

Lastly, I liked the size of the place compared to other laundries in my neighborhood. Sparkle Plenty appeared to have once been two stores. So, I made it my personal mission to not let the owners vexed energy bother me.

Good morning, Id smile. It was always an effusive please and thank you when I needed change and Id never leave without wishing him a good day. Since I often walked past Sparkle Plenty during the course of my day, Id look in and wave to the couple. As much as it seemed to pain him, the man would usually wave back.

Eventually, however, I began to tire of his negative energy and considered joining the exodus from Sparkle Plenty. Thats precisely when I walked past and saw the large sign in Sparkle Plentys window, announcing it would close permanently in less than a month.

My first reaction was relief the decision was being made for me. I even decided to not wait till the place closed. That next Sunday morning, Id get up and take advantage of the earlier opening time of a new laundrom...

A cartoon by the Guardians Martin Rowson depicting Richard Sharp, who announced his resignation as BBC chair earlier in the week, was removed by editors on Saturday following widespread complaints of antisemitism. In a statement, The Guardian said of the cartoon depicting Sharp, who is Jewish:

We understand the concerns that have been raised. This cartoon does not meet our editorial standards, and we have decided to remove it from our website. The Guardian apologises to Mr Sharp, to the Jewish community and to anyone offended.

Rowson, a Jeremy Corbyn supporter who has been a cartoonist at the Guardian for decades, also apologised, saying the illustration was a result of carelessness and thoughtlessness, and adding: Many people are understandably very upset. I genuinely apologise, unconditionally.

See the cartoon, and a great analysis of it which managed to include several antisemitic themes, including depicting Sharp with grotesque stereotypical features, themes of money, power, an octopus and a puppeteer is racist, in the tweet thread below by the CSTs Dave Rich, whose recent book on antisemitism we recently reviewed.

The depiction of Richard Sharp in today's @guardian cartoon falls squarely into an antisemitic tradition of depicting Jews with outsized, grotesque features, often in conjunction with money and power. It's appalling. Here's why pic.twitter.com/RI46VmL6z8

Who thought this was a good idea?

BY VINAY PRASAD | OBSERVATIONS AND THOUGHTS | APRIL 24, 2023

A recent paper in JAMA Pediatrics shows how badly adults dehumanized children. Before I explain, as background, I work as a health care provider in California. During the pandemic, I never had to asymptomatically test even during hospital work. No dog ever smelled me. Keep that in mind as I tell you about this. Because these Ca kids have more restrictions than doctors working in the hospital w the sickest patients!

Here is what researchers did. They trained the dog to sniff out COVID-19. Then, they lined up kids in school. Kids had to stand 6 feet apart. (Apparently they also had to mask see pic). They had to face away from the dogs who smelled their ankle. If the kid had covid, the dog would sit down. Then all kids got tested with Binax, and researchers could see how the dog did.

It strikes me as a bit dehumanizing to treat children like this. Especially since ~100% would later go on to develop COVID. The vast majority would get COVID without getting a vaccine. Seems that lining them up in the schoolyard, and having a dog sniff them something I have only been subject to in airports, where I assume they are sniffing for bomb residue or drugs is a bit extreme.

I worry how a child might feel if they go to school feeling fine, and the dog sits down besides them. Their classmates even thought they are told to face away will still know. The dog will stop moving. And lets be honest, kids will look around. Did they pull the kid from school then? Did any kids start crying? Seems messed up to me. Why did they have to do this with children?

Why do I note this: isnt it something that not a single person flagged this idea and said: if we are going to do this, lets do it for doctors or nurses, or at least adults. It is kinda fucked up to treat children like this, and future generations may look at us like we are out of minds. When they look back at the IFR in kids, they may think we are actually insane.

In 2007, in the course of preparations for actions against the 2008 Republican National Convention, an insurrectionary network of queer anarchists formed under the umbrella Bash Back! Over the following three years, this network participated in a vibrant array of confrontations, organizing efforts, and publications, expanding and intensifying the struggle against sex and gender normativity. Today, as fascists and other bigots renew their assault on queer and trans people and anarchists fight back, there is an urgent need for renewed coordination and innovation. In this context, participants in the original Bash Back! network have called for a new Bash Back! convergence in September 2023.

As they put it,

The intervening years have been marked by intensificationof crisis, alienation, loss, and struggle. The right wing no longer hides behind euphemisms: they want to exterminate trans and queer people. The left offers only false solutions: vote, donate, assimilate. A decade of representation, symbolic legal victories, social media activism, and mass-market saturation has left us worse off by all metrics. Our fair-weather friends wont save us from the consequences of their strategy of empty visibility. The inescapable conclusion is that we must come together to protect ourselves.

History confirms the queer legacy of building connection in a world that hates us, the legacy of riotous joythe legacy of bashing back. The attacks will continue on our nightclubs, forests, story hours, and siblings. To hold on, we need spacesunderground if necessaryto re-encounter each other, spaces to remember, build, share, and conspire.

To explore the legacy of Bash Back! and what it has to offer today, we conducted the following interview with previous participants in Bash Back! who are helping to organize the upcoming convergence.

---

Tell us about the gathering in September. What can people do to participate or contribute?

The 2023 Bash Back! Convergence will be taking place in Chicago from September 8-11. Were inviting all of our queer comrades for a weekend of building connection, learning from each other, and developing new strategies and tactics to fight against the social order. We are organizing this bec...

 

Fake News on Russia in the New York Times, 1917-2017

by Edward S. Herman / July 8th, 2017

However described, the shabby treatment of Julian Assange never ceases to startle. While he continues to suffer in Belmarsh prison awaiting the torments of an interminable legal process, more material is coming out showing the way he was spied upon while staying at the Ecuadorian embassy in London. Of late, the Spanish daily El Pas has been keeping up its exemplary coverage on the subject, notably on the conduct of the Spanish-based security firm, UC Global SL.

There is a twist in the latest smidgens of information on the alleged bad conduct by that particular company. As luck would have it, UC Global was commissioned by Rommy Vallejo, the chief of Ecuadors now defunct national intelligence secretariat, SENAIN, to give the London embassy premises a security and technological touch-up.

Vallejo may have sought their services, but seemed blissfully ignorant that he had granted the fox access to the chicken coop. This access involved the installation of hidden microphones throughout the embassy by UC Global at the direction of its owner, David Morales. Morales, it seems, was updating the US Central Intelligence Agency with information about Assanges meetings with his legal team throughout.

Much of this was revealed in the trial against Assange conducted at the Central Criminal Court in 2020, though the presiding Judge Vanessa Baraitser seemed oddly unmoved by the revelations, as she was by chatter among US intelligence o...

Tales of the American Empire | April 27, 2023

Americans who read about Japans surrender in August 1945 learn only part of what happened because historical accounts are incomplete. They recite the official narrative of the United States government that invading Japan would have caused a million American casualties. Luckily, the United States had developed the atomic bomb. After dropping two atomic bombs Japan quickly surrendered. This official history fails to mention that Japan was seeking to negotiate a surrender since late 1944 after it was clear the war was lost, but powerful people wanted the war to continue longer to demonstrate the power of atomic bombs.

The two atomic bomb attacks produced the same destruction as previous raids involving hundreds of B-29 bombers so they had little impact on the war or Japanese leaders, who were really terrified that Soviet forces had landed in northern Japan. Delaying the end of the war to demonstrate two atomic bombs was immoral and counterproductive. For unknown reasons, the Americans launched a massive bombing raid five days after the second atomic bomb was dropped.

Joe Biden spent the entire day Wednesday wandering around lost and constantly asking his handlers which way to go, while hosting the South Korean President.

Biden tried to hide the fact that he was again asking for directions as to how to get off the podium, and then wandered around aimlessly, not knowing where he was, like a patient in a nursing home:

According to his aides, President Joe Biden is a spry 80-year-old at least between the hours of 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Outside of that time frame, hes back to being Sleepy Joe, according to a new report.

On Friday, Axios reported that the Biden White House has a hard time planning any public and private events before midmorning and in the evening for the 46th president given his age and lack of energy. This, of course, comes as no surprise to most Americans who witness his diminished stamina and mental acuity on a near-daily basis.

Bidens close advisers say hes mentally sharp, Axios reported. But even some of them concede his age has diminished his energy, significantly limiting his schedule.

It sounds like a joke, but Axios even reported that Many White House officials say theyre amazed at Bidens stamina often adding the caveat: for his age.

According to Axios, Bidens 2023 schedule has just four public events before 10:00 a.m., 12 public events after 6:00 p.m., and 12 weekends out of the public spotlight.

Even when Biden is in public during his purportedly preferred hours, hes not exactly functional. For example, on Thursday, Biden failed to remember the last country he visited when asked by a child.

Ive met with 89 heads of state so far, Biden said, So, uh, Im trying to think whats the last place I was. Its hard to keep track uh.

Ireland! a kid in the crowd yelled.

Yeah, youre right, Ireland, he replied. Thats what it was. How did you know that?

Joe Biden couldn't remember the last country he visited.

A literal child had to remind him. pic.twitter.com/rHToAMSYgy

Townhall.com (@townhallcom) April 27, 2023

The president was in Ireland just two weeks ago. As Biden runs for reelection, it appears likely that his campaign will try his 2020 strategy all over again: Hide him in a basement and limit rallies.

Its a bold move, but when you can only operate at peak capacity 30 hours a week as president of the United States, what else can you do?

Joe Biden with a dismal approval rating of 37% has announced that he is running for a second term.  How can he possibly win?  By again stealing the election.

Democrats control the large cities in swing states.  In the past two elections, they have proven that they can easily steal the election.  It is now impermissible to even report evidence of election theft.  Experts who provided evidence were threatened with prosecution, and Fox News management rushed to pay more than three-quarters of a billion dollars of shareholders money in order to create the precedent that reporting evidence of stolen elections constitutes defamation.  As Democrats control election procedures and vote counting in large cities, they, and not the voters, determine election outcomes.  The last two American national elections prove the truth of Stalins dictum:  It matters not how people vote; it matters who counts the votes.

The All-America Economic Survey found that 70% of Americans disfavor a Biden second term. This indicates that a large percentage of Democrats themselves do not want Biden.  In America today, elections are nothing more than a veil behind which the elite rule.

The Democrats have a good candidate, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.  But RFK opposes Big Pharmas control of US medicine and the agenciesFDA, NIH, CDCthat serve as Big Pharmas protectors and marketing agents, and he opposes other aspects of the oligarchic system protected by official narratives upheld by the media.  RFK will not be permitted to be president.

Republican Trump has by far the largest number of voters, but the Democrats have weaponized law in an effort to stop him from running.  Other possible and strong Republican candidatesRon DeSantis and Tucker Carlsonare unacceptable to the ruling elite and to the Republican establishment.  If DeSantis makes himself acceptable to the establishment, he will lose his luster with voters.

The long-term ongoing collapse of US education has produced a population many of whom are comfortable with censoring and suppressing information that they are programmed to regard as offensive or misinformation.  These two categories of unwelcome information refer to truths that are inconvenient for the elite and their official narratives.  The regard of truth as hurtful has gained a foothold and exercises peer pressure on parts of the population, which makes it difficult for the people to act in their own interest.

Essentially, democracy has ceased to exist in the US.  Increasingly, elected representatives are appointees of the ruling elite, who control the selection of candidates by their allocations of campaign funds.  Trump was the last elected  President (twice).  It is unlikely the ruling elite will allow Trump to again enter the White House.

When agendas prevail over truth, tyranny is the consequ...

Shocking report reveals worldwide agenda to normalize pedophilia through kindergartens and elementary schools. 

Little children are sexual beings who must have sexual partners, and begin with s*x as soon as possible. 

Having s*x is a human right regardless of age. For this reason kindergartens and elementary schools must teach children to develop lust and sexual desire, learn masturbation, build homosexual relationships, use online pornography, and learn different sexual techniques such as oral s*x. 

That is a limited summary of the guidelines issued by the World Health Organization and the United Nations to educational authorities worldwide.

Meanwhile, international judicial organizations are issuing statements that s*x between little children and adults should be legalized, while media outlets are calling for the acceptance of pedophilia as a normal sexual orientation.

Evidence report will be
revealed on May 6th

 The past months we have been working intensely on an in depth evidence report that reveals how the World Health Organization and United Nations are pushing the agenda of normalizing pedophilia, through kindergartens and elementary schools in every nation of the world.

We invite you to see this evidence report
on May 6th at StopWorldControl.com

 Besides an overwhelming amount of evidence, including many documents of the WHO, UN, the report also includes videos of parents crying out to the world, about what is happening in their schools, as a result of these international guidelines:

oddlers are masturbating one another in class, their are playing oral sexual games, naked transgender adults are parading in front of them, girls receive 3D clitorises to help them start with masturbation, kids are encouraged to have homosexual relationships, and a whole lot more.

 Prominent pedophilia organizations

In order to execute this agenda worldwide, the WHO and UN have partnered with an organization that has been at the forefront of promoting pedophilia for the past decades. This organization collaborates with foundations that own vast collections of child pornography, and whose founders have been arrested for child molestation.

They published magazines calling for the destruction of the natural family, while promoting the mision of...

• Nearly 25 percent of US high schoolers identify as something other than straight 
• These students are more likely to attempt suicide and be victims of abuse

Mansur Shaheen Daily Mail.com April 27, 2023

Around a quarter of high school students identify as gay, bisexual or have a more fluid sexuality, official data suggests.

The Centers for Disease Control and Preventions biannual youth report found that just 75.5 percent of 14 to 18-year-olds said they were heterosexual in 2021 a new low.

The remainder said they were either bisexual (12.1 percent), gay or lesbian (3.2 percent), other (3.9 percent) or said they questioned their sexuality (5.2 percent).

The percentage of students who do not view themselves as straight has more than doubled in recent years from 11 percent in 2015 to 24.5 percent in 2021.

Experts say the explosion in alternative sexualities among children can be partly attributed to increased acceptance.

Dr Mollie Blackburn, who teaches sexuality studies at Ohio State University, told DailyMail.com: Its an increase in acceptance from both parents and society.

[Accepting people] creates a context where a child will be more willing to say that they are gay.

She does not think the actual number of children who are truly gay, lesbian or bisexual has changed in recent years, but that young people are more willing to admit it now.

But Jay Richard, a senior research fellow at the conservative think-tank the Heritage Foundation, said the US was an outlier.

In the UK, for example, eight percent of people 16 to 24 identify as LGBT, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

He said the rise of gender studies in American schools in recent years was partly behind the rise. There is no doubt in my mind that schools are absolutely playing a role in this growth.

In recent years, some schools have begun teaching sex education as young as second grade, which has prompted pushback from Conservative lawmakers.

Just because covid is over, thankfully, does not mean that the fallout from the health care systems egregious medical abuses will go unchecked or unpunished.

Reports are flooding in about the horrors that took place at hospitals all across the country, many of which abused patients and committed systemic medical murder in the name of saving lives and stopping the spread.

Lawsuits are being filed left and right against hospitals that allegedly murdered peoples loved ones by putting them on remdesivir or a ventilator after using fraudulent PCR tests to proclaim a positive covid diagnosis.

Rather than treat patients with nutrition, and perhaps safe and effective drugs like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, most medical institutions in America followed the script like they were ordered to do and in exchange, they raked in the dough for compliance.

(Related: Remember when Sarasota Memorial Hospital in Florida was caught trying to murder patients in order to boost its covid death numbers in exchange for cash?)

The official American hospital covid protocol was a MURDER regimen

American Thinkers Stella Paul wrote a piece highlighting some of the stories of people whose loved ones lost their lives at the hands of medical terrorists who isolated patients from their families while killing them with the official covid death protocol.

The ritual progresses in predictable stages: first, the patient is isolated from family, who are unable to advocate for their loved one or monitor whats happening, Paul explains. Next, the patient is diagnosed with Covid-19 or Covid pneumonia, even if they came to the hospital because of a broken arm.

Then, theyre bullied into getting remdesivir, a highly toxic drug which killed 53 percent of Ebola patients who had the misfortune to take it. Next They are placed on a BiPap machine at a high rate, making it difficult for them to breathe. Their hands are often tied down so they cant take the BiPap machine off their face.

This progression towards induced death was the norm at American hospitals, which murdered countless patients via the covid protocol. And it gets even worse, as Paul explains.

As the patients writhe in agony, psychiatrists are brought in to diagnose them with agitation and sedate them, she says. Now, shot up with remdesivir, sedated with drugs that make it tough to breathe against the BiPap ventilato......

Tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets but Palestinian citizens of Israel have been relatively absent from the marches, despite some arguing that theyll suffer most from the planned changes. Now there are claims that protests against the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories are becoming a larger part of the demos.

In the item itself Davies mentions the Israeli flags and the singing of the national anthem at the protests, going on to tell listeners that:

According to an article in American Banker titled SECs Gensler Directly Links Crypto and Bank Failures, SEC Chair Gary Gensler has asked for more financial resources to police the crypto market. Gensler testified at an April 18 House Financial Services Committee hearing:

[Crypto companies] have chosen to be noncompliant and not provide investors with confidence and protections, and it undermines the $100 trillion capital markets

Silvergate and Signature [banks] were engaged in the crypto business I mean some would say that they were crypto-backed

Silicon Valley Bank, actually when it failed, saw the countrys the worlds second-leading stable coin had $3 billion involved there, depegged, so its interesting just how this was all part of this crypto narrative as well.

Cryptocurrency experts Caitlin Long and Nic Carter take the opposite view. They acknowledge the link between crypto and the recent wave of bank failures and the runs and threatened runs they triggered, but Carter and Long make a compelling case that it was the FDIC, the SEC and the Federal Reserve that brought the banks down, by a coordinated, extrajudicial war on crypto that blocked that otherwise-legal industry from acquiring the banking services it needs.

The public banking movement has run up against similar roadblocks. Both cryptocurrencies and publicly-owned banks compete with the Wall Street-dominated private banking cartel, but more on that after a look at the suspicious events behind the recent bank runs.

In a February 2023 article on Pirate Wires titled Operation Choke Point 2.0, Carter laid out the case that the federal government was quietly attempting to ban crypto. In a 7,000-word March 23 follow-up titled Did the Government Start a Financial Crisis in an Attempt to Destroy Crypto?, he writes:

The two most crypto-focused banks, Silvergate and Signature, were forced into liquidation and receivership, respectively. The established narrative is that they made bad bets and lost, or that they couldnt handle flighty depositors in the form of tech and crypto startups.

together that is far more sinister

The preponderance of public evidence suggests that Silvergate and Signature didnt commit suicide they were executed.

In January 2023, [s]ome in the crypto space noticed highly coordinated activity between the White House, financial regulators, and the Fed, aimed at dissuading banks from dealing with crypto clients, makin...

A bipartisan group of US lawmakers has urged President Joe Biden to enable the Department of Homeland Securitys Homeland Security Investigations (HIS) to seize more Iranian oil and gas shipments.

It is unacceptable that a US government program, which makes the United States and its allies safer, provides funds to remediate the victims of terrorism, and generates income for the United States in a cost-effective manner has been allowed to languish, a letter drafted by Senators Joni Ernst and Richard Blumenthal reads.

The letter then highlights that the HIS has not been allowed to conduct what amounts to maritime piracy for more than a year before lamenting the success of the Islamic Republic in bypassing US sanctions to boost its oil and gas exports.

As Iranian oil sales continue to rise, and the IRGC continues to target US citizens and servicemembers, including inside the US, it is imperative that we use all available government assets to limit the activities of the Iranian regime.

Other senators that signed the letter included Ted Cruz, Steve Daines, Lindsey Graham, Maggie Hassan, Mark Kelly, Joe Manchin, Jerry Moran, Marco Rubio, Kyrsten Sinema, and Ron Wyden.

The failure to support HSIs Iranian oil seizure and disruption operations in FY22, despite available funds, is a policy choice that must be reversed, the senators stressed.

HIS was formed in 2019 during the government of former president Donald Trump. According to the lawmakers, the agency is responsible for pillaging nearly $230 million in Iranian crude and fuel oil.

Its operations have reportedly been curtailed by policy limitations from the Department of Treasurys Executive Office for Asset Forfeiture.

Despite an ever-intensifying maximum pressure sanctions campaign from the west, Iranian oil exports have reached their highest level since 2015.

According to Iranian Oil Minister Javad Owji, Iran exported 83 million more oil barrels in the past 12-month period compared to the 12 months before. At the same time, gas exports increased by 15 percent over the past 12 months.

Moscows permanent representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzia, said on 27 April that the UN-sponsored cross-border aid mechanism for Syria has exhausted its capabilities and is being used for other purposes.

The cross-border humanitarian aid mechanism has has long since exhausted its capabilities and is being used for other purposes, far from addressing the humanitarian situation, Nebenzia stressed.

The cross-border aid mechanism was established by the UN in 2014 in order to provide aid to northern Syria through the Turkish-Syrian border without authorization from the government in Damascus a contravention of international regulations.

However, extremist militants in control of large swathes of Syrias north began taking advantage of the mechanism in order to seize humanitarian aid for themselves, at times to sell for higher prices. Northern border-crossings associated with the UN aid program have even been subject to drug smuggling by armed groups.

Groups such as the Nusra Front, the former Al-Qaeda branch now known as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), have also been involved in kidnapping aid workers to demand large ransoms worsening an already volatile humanitarian situation. The aid program also excludes the majority of the population who reside in government-held territory, where an economy ravaged by sanctions has created significant humanitarian concerns.

We would like to stress that if our western colleagues in the UN Security Council continue to act as if nothing has happened, and ignore the thwarting of the implementation of the Security Council resolution by international terrorists, we will draw the required conclusions from the current situation while formulating our position on extending the aid transfer mechanism for next July, Nebenzia added.

The last time the cross-border aid mechanism was extended was in January this year. Russia has called for an end to the program numerous times, and has vetoed its extension in the past.

It looks like permissions to use two additional checkpoints for three months, issued by Damascus, have de-facto reduced to zero UN enthusiasm to unblock deliveries via the contact line, the Russian official said.

This refers to the two additional border crossings opened by the Syri...

The US military, with the help of its Kurdish allies, occupies a third of Syrian territory with no legal basis and is now complaining about Russia antagonizing its troops. Although Moscow has been invited into Syria by Damascus and the US has repeatedly been asked to leave, the Americans are treating Syrian territory as if it is their own.

US officials have recently lashed out with yet more accusations against Moscow. This time the complaints have surfaced through Western corporate media outlets such as the Wall Street Journal (WSJ). The head of US Air Forces Central Command, Lt. Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, told the WSJ that we continue to see unsafe and unprofessional area activity from the Russians, reportedly in proximity of US forces. No evidence has been provided for the claims and Moscow has yet to make any comment.

In July of last year, Dana Stroul, the Biden administrations deputy assistant secretary of defense (DASD) for the Middle East, said: Russia is flying in and moving about, at times, in the same space or terrain, near our forces, and it is the responsible, professional thing to do to make sure we have a channel to talk to each other. She claimed this system has been in place for a very long time and is key in preventing misunderstandings that could tip into an escalatory cycle. With the presence of both forces in close proximity so frequently, there has yet to be any indication that what is being complained about now is anything new.

However, the story that is being completely written out of existence here is that the US has no legitimacy whatsoever to even operate inside Syria. The US government attempts to legally justify its presence by asserting that under international law it is a victim state in the face of non-state actors such as Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) ISIS or Al-Qaeda. Therefore, the Authorization for Use of Military Force (UAMF) against Iraq, which was passed by US Congress in 2002, is utilized here.

The problem is that the US invasion of Iraq had no validity under international law either, a point explicitly made by former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 2004. Knowing this, US government officials will always cite their invitation from...

There is no doubt now that Bakhmut will soon fall to the Russians. How soon? Probably a few days and no more than one week.

Ukraine says it has managed to evacuate its elite forces from the city, leaving only rearguard elements to hang on until the end. Efforts by Ukraine to provide counterattacks have not borne fruit, and all efforts have been stopped by Russian paratroopers and Wagner PMC fighters, along with generous amounts of Russian artillery.

Meanwhile, the Russians themselves are refocusing on the newly created Ukrainian brigades that are supposed to lead the counteroffensive. These are the brigades that have been stuffed up to their ears with Western hardware but lack well-trained troops.

Such brigades also face complex, perhaps impossible, logistical challenges, since the Western supplies require spare parts, repair centers and in many cases different types of ammunition. Even the Leopard II tanks supplied cant all use the same ammunition.

More worrisome for Ukraines army is the lack of replacement supplies if their coming offensive drags on. Simply put, there are almost no supplies around. The US is mostly out of ammunition and has been...

The reason behind Washington setting up sensors across Ukraine to detect a potential nuclear blast may involve shifting the blame to Russia if a radioactive weapon is used, or even if it is not used, but only reported in Western media, Karen Kwiatkowski, former US Department of Defense analyst and retired Air Force lieutenant colonel, told Sputnik.

The Nuclear Emergency Support Team (NEST), a group of scientists, technicians, and engineers operating under the United States Department of Energys National Nuclear Security Administration, is deploying nuclear sensors throughout Ukraine to both detect bursts of radiation from a nuclear weapon or a dirty bomb and identify the attacker. As per The New York Times, the goal is to verify Moscows culpability if Russia detonates a radioactive weapon on Ukrainian soil. The Western media has long disseminated groundless claims that Moscow may resort to the use of nuclear arms if defeated in Ukraine. Russia has resolutely shredded the assumptions, referring to intelligence alleging the Kiev regimes potential detonation of a so-called dirty bomb, a radiological dispersal device (RDD) that combines a conventional explosive with radioactive material. The purpose of the possible provocation would be to blame Moscow for the resulting radioactive contamination.

It makes sense that the secretive NEST team is being deployed to very quickly shift blame to Russia if any radioactive weapon is used (or even if it is not used, but only reported in Western media), said Karen Kwiatkowski. The US track record is provocative and the policy players are unwise, almost to a person. There is an argument to be made that this is one more way the US hopes to win the narrative, and threaten Russia, by reporting a nuclear release, and immediately blaming Russia (as the story is already structured to do) and protecting the last Ukrainian war enthusiasts from accountability. To this day, despite evidence and logic to the contrary, most of the Western world still believes it was Russians shooting at Zaporozhye [Nuclear Power Plant] last year from Ukrainian territory, while those same Russians were holding and operating the reactor.

One cannot completely rule out that this preventative deployment is meant to ensure Ukrainians dont use radioactive weapons in their own last ditch efforts as the war comes to an end, according to the US Air Force veteran. Kwiatkowski suggested that the deployment could serve as a direct message to the remnants of the Ukrainian military and political leaders who could run amok, thus ups...

Imagine a world where a broad coalition of people and groups unites against militarism and oligarchy, and where there are as many successes as failures to discuss.

Or just look at Latin America.

In a recent book, and in numerous articles, Ive argued for burying the Monroe Doctrine after 200 years, and for supporting those at work doing so.

Right now, in Washington DC, CODEPINK has organized a gathering of people and organizations to advance this cause. Todays forum has been streaming live on Facebook.

What we can see in these videos (or in person if you were here) is a movement that has energy and organization, that has done its research, recruited its experts and advocates, made its case, and won victories that can be built on, a movement that can quote statements of elected officials, such as the President of Mexico, that are indistinguishable from those of activists.

Of course a great deal remains to be done. One session on Saturday addressed the deadly use of sanctions with a great deal of solid research establishing the murderous intentions and results of economic sanctions something about which most people in the United States, whose democratic government is responsible, have no idea.

The people of Latin America are winning over their own publics, and their own governments, and creating effective resistance to U.S. imperialism without winning over the U.S. public or the U.S. government. Can you imagine the greater success the pink wave of Latin America might have if the U.S. public were seriously supporting it or even cheering for it as though it were a war in Uk...
