Press TV July 2, 2023

Former US presidential contender and ex-lawmaker Tulsi Gabbard has slammed US President Joe Biden over his war-mongering, accusing the octogenarian leader of pushing the world towards a nuclear war over Ukraine.

Speaking on Saturday at a meeting in a university in Centennial in the US state of Colorado, Gabbard said the Biden administrations war-mongering policy was shoving the world on the brink of nuclear disaster.

We are faced with the reality. Now, President Bidens actions and policies have pushed us to the brink of nuclear war, she said.

The former Democratic lawmaker from Hawaii warned that the US-led proxy war against Russia posed an existential crisis, threatening the very existence of humanity.

This is an existential crisis, not only for us here but the world. This proxy war against Russia using the Ukrainian peoples lives continues to escalate, Gabbard said in her speech which was broadcast on her social media.

She insisted that it was time for a reality check to see if Biden and his lackeys had any awareness of the risk and dangers of delivering more and deadlier weapons to Ukraine, saying it would only increase the likelihood of a possible direct confrontation between the US-led NATO forces and Russia.

Now if you hear President Biden and his administration talk about this, they talk about World War III and nuclear war as though it is just another war, just another conflict it is so far removed from the reality they are not being honest with the American people what the cost and consequences of these wars would look like, Gabbard added.

Indoctrination Working to Besiege Younger Persons with Gender Crisis

By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH | Courageous Discourse | July 2, 2023

A physician e-mail from Medscape highlighted a paper by Sun et al on the dropping age of gender dysphoria in publicly available data. If gender dysphoria was an organic psychiatric illness, it would have steady epidemiological parameters. The enormous campaign for transgender acceptance, hypersexuality, and pornography introduced into schools appears to be working. As the data show, gender dysphoria is still largely a post-pubertal issue, however, the curves are reaching down to the pre-pubertal age groups.

Dr. David Kelly did not commit suicide on Harrowdown Hill in Oxfordshire 20 years ago. He was murdered. We all know that by now, or at least we should know that by now. But the real question is: why was he murdered. Was it really about sexed-up dossiers and 45 minute claims? Or were there even darker secrets to be concealed? As old hands of The Corbett Report will know by now, the rabbit hole goes deep, and today we go even further into the rabbit hole of David Kellys death.

John Patterson The Unz Review June 30, 2023

James Lancia, Downtown White Police: Demonizing the Alpha Cop, Glorifying Thugs, and Militarizing Law Enforcement, CreateSpace, 2015, 182 pages, $15.95 paperback, $9.99 Kindle.

James Lancia is a retired police officer from Bridgeport, Connecticut, with indisputable credibility as an experienced alpha cop. In the 1980s, when Mr. Lancia patrolled the citys streets, Bridgeport was in the middle of a crack epidemic and had one of the highest per capita overall crime rates in the United States. One of the Bridgeports worst areas was the notorious Father Panik Village, occupied largely by blacks and at that time Americas most dangerous housing project.

In Downtown White Police, Mr. Lancia describes what patrolling this blighted and violent area was like for a white officer. He treats the reader to many riveting police stories that require no embellishment. He describes in detail the sights, sounds, and smells, and offers a glimpse into the violence, fear, and degeneracy of life in majority-black projects. Mr. Lancia discusses topics that only a true street cop could understand and only a retired one would dare broach.

The book begins in 1978 when Mr. Lancia enters the police academy at the age of 18. The son of Italian immigrants, he had planned to enlist in the Marine Corps but chose law enforcement after scoring highly on the police officers written examination. He was immediately thrust into the violent fray as a rookie officer working unpredictable and dangerous housing projects, including Father Panik Village.

In Chapter 1, the author explains the books title and why he sets Downtown White Police off with quotation marks. The city police, most of whom were white, were based at the Downtown Headquarters. The Housing Authority police, which shared jurisdiction over the projects, were almost entirely black. Once, while responding to a call from Father Panik Village, Mr. Lancia overheard a black youth telling a friend, Dey the downtown white police! The name stuck.

The book describes the every-day violence of the projects. A particularly disturbing story details how a...

Strategic Culture.org June 30, 2023

The Ukraine proxy war against Russia can be increasingly seen as a disastrous defeat for the United States and NATO. That stunning outcome should be making world headlines. Instead, the Western media spin machine is in overdrive about a failed mutiny in Russia, which on an objective scale of important events is relatively minor compared with the colossal U.S./NATO scandal.

A month-long Ukrainian counteroffensive has failed to make any dent in Russias defenses despite billions of dollars and euros in weaponry funnelled to the Kiev regime by the NATO bloc. That is a veritably astounding calamity and scandal. The completely unnecessary death and destruction are obscene akin to World War One slaughtering by callous armchair generals and politicians.

Even Western officials and the corrupt money-grubbing Kiev regime are coyly admitting that the much-vaunted counteroffensive that had been hailed for months as an expected hammer blow against Russian forces is a failure. Thousands of Ukrainian soldiers as well as NATO special forces covertly on the ground have been killed. Hundreds of tanks and infantry vehicles have been pulverized by superior Russian firepower.

It is a slaughter and orgy of war racketeering that American and European political elites, along with their media servants, have endlessly promoted.

There will be hell to pay for the American and European rulers who have staked everything on their nefarious ambition for the strategic defeat of Russia (under the specious guise of defending democracy in a Nazi regime!)

The political consequences for U.S. President Joe Biden will make his Afghanistan withdrawal debacle in 2021 look like a picnic as presidential elections loom next year.

As for the European Union, whose leaders have slavishly followed Washingtons folly in Ukraine, the repercussions of economic and political chaos will fatally undermine this already teetering entity.

Ultimately, theres no getting away from the impending seismic geopolitical crisis, no matter how much the Western elitist mis-rulers twist and squirm to avoid accountability.

The tumult from the Prigozhin affair in Russia over the last week, which saw a mutiny attempt by the chief of the Wagner private military company, came at a convenient time for the U.S. and EU. It momentarily distracted from the unmitigated disaster that Washington and its NATO allies have created in Ukraine. But as the Prigozhin charade dissipates, the focus will rightly turn to the far bigger scandal of Western-led defeat in Ukraine.

Who will answer for the countless lives lost, the millions of displaced, and the American and European economies and livelihoods thrown into disarray? All of the Western so-called leaders, as well as the shameless war-propagandizing media outlets, are a rogues gallery that will face searing scrutiny...

Confronted with a worrying shortage of artillery ammunition, a counteroffensive that has been slow to launch and increasingly desperate appeals from Kyiv for more weaponry, the Biden administration is facing an imminent decision over whether to supply Ukraine with controversial cluster bombs.

We have been thinking about DPICM for a long time, Gen. Mark A. Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Friday at the National Press Club, referring to dual-purpose improved conventional munitions. Yes, of course theres a decision-making process ongoing.

Senior administration and defense officials have in recent weeks contacted Capitol Hill and allies long opposed to the use of cluster munitions to make the case that they are needed on the Ukraine battlefield and to provide assurances on how they would be used. Deputy national security adviser Jon Finer made calls to lawmakers to gauge the comfort level on the issue, according to people familiar with the conversations, though they were told that a final decision had not yet been made.

The United States concluded months ago that cluster weapons could be an effective tool against advancing Russian troops and Wagner Group mercenaries, according to a January intelligence assessment that was among a trove of leaked classified documents obtained by The Washington Post. The assessment came amid the brutal months-long battle for the city of Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine.

Ukrainian forces found that the Russians tended to mass before an assault, rendering them vulnerable to cluster munitions, shells that contain dozens or even hundreds of smaller bombs that are dispersed over an area. The weapons likely would increase the [Ukrainian militarys] effectiveness against assault waves because one cluster munition exhibits the same lethality as 10 155mm artillery rounds against grouped infantry, the top-secret document said, referring to the ammunition used by howitzers that the United States has provided to Ukraine and that is now in short supply.

At that time, President Biden was opposed. According to our own policy, we have concerns about the use of those kinds of munitions, National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said in December in response to questions about Kyivs requests for the weapons.

The White House is now reviewing its position, according to several U.S. officials who, like others in this report, spoke on the condition of anonymity about the sensitive issue. Weve always said our security assistance would evolve as battlefield conditions have evolved, and that continues to be the case, one official said. In recent weeks, weve seen an increasing need for cluster munitions that could help...

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki says his country wants to join NATOs nuclear weapon sharing program. This is in direct response to Russias deployment of some of its own nuclear weapons to neighboring Belarus. This also comes as Poland is pushing ahead with a massive conventional rearmament effort that was accelerated in the wake of the all-out Russian invasion of Ukraine last year.

Prime Minister Morawiecki made his remarks about Polands desire to become of NATOs nuclear weapon sharing arrangements in response to a question at a press conference on the sidelines of a European Union in Brussels, Belgium, earlier today.

Brother Nathaniel- The corruption the Jew innately carries within his essential self, corrupts all society like a deadly poison.

Makow- I condemn Brother Nathaniel for this racist drivel. Most Jews are assimilated. They are stupid and cowardly like their Gentile counterparts. But they are not inherently evil nor do they celebrate Jesus crucifixion.  

(Children, would you like to buy some candy? The Jewish Pedophile)

The issue is the Jewish supremacist agenda which is imposed top-down by the Cabalist (Masonic) Jewish bankers i.e. the WEF.  Most Jews do not know about it or subscribe to it. Nathaniel is just helping the Jewish supremacists by allowing them to ascribe legitimate resistance to racism. I urge Gentiles to focus their antisemitism on the Jews who are actually instrumental in their enslavement, sickness, impoverishment, and deaths. i.e. the WEF, the Biden admin, CDC; as well as on Masonic traitors (the UN, WHO, IMF, and other globalist institutions.)

Brother Nathaniel disproves his own thesis.  He is a good Jew.

A memorial in France honoring those who were deported from the country by the Nazis during World War II was reportedly vandalized this week by rioters protesting the police shooting of a 17-year-old boy on Tuesday.

The vandalism targeted the Memorial to the Martyrs of the Deportation, a monument erected in 1962 in a Paris suburb remembering the roughly 200,000 people who were deported from France to Nazi Germany during World War II. This would include Jews who would become victims of the Holocaust, Gypsies, and French workers who were sent to labor camps.

It is truly horrifying to witness the Memorial to the Martyrs of the Deportation in Nanterre being vandalized, the European Jewish Congress said in a statement. This shameful act of disrespect for the memory of the victims of the Holocaust must be unequivocally condemned and those responsible held accountable.

Ariel Goldmann, president of the United Jewish Social Fund, also called out the vandalism, according to the Jewish Chronicle. It is an absolute outrage and a disgrace. Nothing is respected, he said.

The deportation memorial has drawn some criticism in the past for not explicitly referencing the Jewish victims of the Nazi deportations.

The following text was sent to us by French comrades on the third day of unrest following the murder of the teenager Nahel Merzouk by French police in the city of Nanterre, a suburb of Paris. It provides an analysis of the situation and an overview of the fight against police brutality in France starting in the 1970s.

Today, this movement is facing intense repression in the streets, the media, and the courts. As of now, at least three people have been killed in addition to Nahel. Rather than focus on the deployment of specialized military police across the country, we prefer to begin with the efforts of the young people who are risking their lives to stand up for Nahel and for themselves.

In the streets, many people say that the feelings of rage and the intensity of the fight is reminiscent of the riots of 2005. Just as those riots took place following the student movement of 2005, this veritable uprising has followed the powerful movement against the pension reform imposed by President Emmanuel Macron, which faced unprecedented repression in the spring. Despite tremendous allocations of resources and veritable legal impunity, police in France appear to be losing both their perceived legitimacy and their ability to intimidate large sectors of the public into passivity.

Justice for Nahel

On June 27, 2023, Nahel Merzouk, age 17, was driving a car in Nanterre when motorcycle police stopped him for a roadside check, then murdered him in cold blood. As one of the passengers later described, one officer threatened Nahel, Dont move or Ill put a bullet in your head. Then both officers struck him through the open window of the car. Stunned by the blows, Nahel accidentally released the brake and hit the accelerator, upon which one officer shot and killed him. We know all of this because almost the entire scene was filmed.

The video of Nahels murder quickly went viral on social media outlets, which have played a key role in the ensuing unrest. People swiftly reacted in the streets.

Starting that first night, June 27, violent clashes broke out in predominantly immigrant neighborhoods in Nanterre and other suburbs of Paris (Mantes-la-Jolie...

Let me begin this article with an AP Fact Check. According to the AP (A Bill Gates-tied mosquito project is not responsible for recent US malaria cases | AP News) the cases of malaria that have recently popped up in the United States were NOT related to Bill Gates, his funding of mosquito research related disease prevention (Gates-Funded World Mosquito Program Engages in Gain-of-Function Research The American Spectator USA News and Politics), or Oxitecs (another Gates supported company) release of genetically modified mosquitoes for the past several years in Florida where the outbreaks occurred (see the previous two articles). The AP has noted that the Gates foundation does fund malaria work and GMO mosquitoes but states its funding for Oxitecs genetically altered mosquitoes that are being released in Florida (where those mosquitoes are released) does not include any modifications related to malaria and so they could not be the cause.

The AP really did its homework here and also requested comment from Oxitec and noted they said it was scientifically impossible that they had anything to do with this coincidence. Apparently the gene editing in the Oxitec mosquitoes (that Gates has nothing to do with) is about fighting Dengue fever and Zika virus and they also only release male genetically altered mosquitoes so clearly none of this could have anything to do with the mosquitoes being worked on elsewhere that vaccinate against malaria (though these mosquitoes do exist as you can see in this story from NPR  Why mosquitoes were the vaccinators in a new malaria vaccine trial : Goats and Soda : NPR). Just in case anyone has any further doubts, the AP even talked to an entomologist at the Florida Medical Entomology Laboratory at the University of Florida and he said that the Oxitec mosquitoes have nothing at all to do with malaria, and its absurd to claim otherwise.

Now that you are all aware of Bill Gates and his support for genetically altered mosquitoes to fight disease, and the malaria vaccine mosquitoes, I want to share a few important points.

First did you know that they have developed a mechanism to vaccinate people through mosquitoes? As no...

eugyppius: a plague chronicle | July 1, 2023

The Scholz government plans to direct German public health authorities to begin systematic monitoring of RSV, the respiratory syncytial virus, which can cause serious symptoms in young children but is little more than a cold for healthy adults:

The respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) will very soon be made subject to mandatory reporting requirements. Doctors and laboratories will have to report infected patients by name to health authorities

Up to now, there has been no obligation to report RSV in Germany, with the exception of the federal state of Saxony

The stated reason is that RSV has caused a high rate of illness in children the past two seasons and placed a serious burden on paediatric clinics nationwide. The RSV outbreak in autumn 2022 has made it clear that an improvement in data collection is needed for early detection and avoiding an overload of the health system.

The planned reporting requirements will not only improve the collection of epidemiological data, but also enable public health authorities to carry out targeted early investigations and implement on-site measures to limit an outbreak and prevent further spread.

My emphasis.

[The] coalition governments believes that several RSV vaccines will be approved in Germany in the foreseeable future. The additional data gleaned from reporting requirements would assist in the evaluation of vaccines and the design of vaccination strategies.

Let us get this straight: The virus pests imposed harmful and destructive hygiene measures on the greater part of the developed world for years, which failed to do anything much about SARS-2, but apparently limited exposure to many common viruses like RSV. After population immunity to these old endemic viruses had substantially waned due to these wrongheaded policies, we reopened, leaving these heretofore mostly harmless pathogens to tear through the respiratory tracts of young children with new fury. The virus pests, having failed in the most spectacular way possible, now hope to turn the minor disaster they caused into an occasion for future restrictions and impositions in daily life.

Note also the insidious role of the vaccinators. As soon is there is a jab for any virus, the pressure to begin counting that virus begins, thereby making a problem where nobody ever noticed one...

About 30 million Americans are taking benzodiazepines like Xanax, Valium, and Klonopin- about 12.5% of the adult population. Doctors and psychiatrists have prescribed these drugs for decades to treat anxiety. But a new study reveals benzodiazepine usage and discontinuing usage can create nervous system injury and negative life effects.

Researchers from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus said as patients enter the discontinuation phase of Xanax, Valium, and Klonopin, they face significant withdrawal symptoms.

Despite the fact that benzodiazepines have been widely prescribed for decades, this survey presents significant new evidence that a subset of patients experiences long-term neurological complications, said Alexis Ritvo, M.D, M.P.H., an assistant professor in psychiatry at the University of Colorado School of Medicine and medical director of the nonprofit Alliance for Benzodiazepine Best Practices. She said the medical community must reevaluate how it prescribes benzodiazepines.

The study was a collaborative effort between CU Anschutz, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, and several drug advocacy that specializes in raising awareness of benzodiazepine harms.

Patients have been reporting long-term effects from benzodiazepines for over 60 years. I am one of those patients. Even though I took my medication as prescribed, I still experience symptoms on a daily basis at four years off benzodiazepines. Our survey and the new term BIND (benzodiazepine-induced neurological dysfunction) give a voice to the patient experience and point to the need for further investigations, said Christy Huff, MD, one of the papers coauthors and a cardiologist and director of Benzodiazepine Information Coalition.

About 76.6% of the respondents had long-lasting symptoms after discounting the use of benzodiazepines. Almost half of the respondents had these ten symptoms for more than a year:

1. low energy
2. difficulty focusing
3.  memory loss
4. anxiety
5. insomnia
6. sensitivity to light and sounds
7. digestive problems
8. symptoms triggered by food and drink
9. muscle weakness
10.  body pain

The most alarming part of the study was the symptoms listed above were new and distinct and werent experienced before respondents used Xanax, Valium, and Klonopin. Many respondents reported damaged relationships, job loss, and increased medical costs. Also, 54.4% of the responde...

BY CHRIS MORRISON AND IAN RONS | THE DAILY SCEPTIC | JUNE 28, 2023

At least three Typhoon fighter jets were landing at RAF Coningsby around the time when the brief U.K. temperature record was declared at 15:12 on July 19th last year from a measuring device situated halfway down the runway. Following a Freedom of Information request, the Daily Sceptic has obtained portions of the log books of four pilots flying from the base that afternoon, casting considerable doubt on the record that made headlines around the world.

The pilots log books record three of the four Typhoons landing at 15:10, 15:15 and 15:15. However, since these log books round off all times to the nearest five minutes, we can interpret this to mean the three jets landed between about 15:07:30 to 15:17:30 at the latest. But pilots want to rack up the most possible flying hours, so a landing at 15:12:30 would be written down as 15:15 and not 15:10, and there is always wiggle room.

In reality, its likely that the three jets actually landed in very quick succession, rather than over the space of several minutes. Many videos are available online showing operations at Coningsby, with Typhoons flying (and landing) close to each other, and a very recent video shows three jets landing within 30 seconds. The lead jet of the three landing on July 19th was ZJ914 the RAFs primary display aircraft suggesting the others were experienced pilots who may well have landed in close formation. Taken in context with the log books, this points to the three aircraft landing together at some point very close to when the record was set at 15:12, and likely a little before.

At 15:10, the temperature suddenly jumped by 0.6C to hit the 40.3C record at 15.12. Within 60 seconds, the record temperature dropped back by 0.6C. At the time, the Met Office claimed that verifying the record had been a rigorous process and that all data was accurate.

The Daily Sceptic has published a number of articles about the Coningsby incident and the general recording of surface temperatures by the Met Office. Last November, we asked the Met Office if its rigorous process confirming the validity of the 40.3C record had ruled out all non-climatic causes such as jet aircraft operating near the measuring device, since RAF Coningsby is a major jet pilot training centre and home to two squadrons of Typhoons. We received no reply. Ear...

Israel is not planning to attack Irans nuclear sites, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahus national security adviser said on 30 June, as indirect talks between Tehran and Washington regarding the nuclear issue have continued in recent weeks.

Asked whether an Israeli decision on a preemptive strike against Iran was any closer, Tzachi Hanegbi said:

We are not getting closer because the Iranians have stopped, for a while now, they are not enriching uranium to the level that, in our view, is the red line.

Hanegbi added: But it can happen. So we are preparing for the moment.

For several decades, Israel and the US have accused Iran of being weeks away from building a nuclear weapon. However, Iran says its nuclear industry is for peaceful purposes, including energy, and has stressed that Islam forbids pursuing weapons of mass destruction.

Hanegbi said it was still unclear what would come of the US-Iran talks. Still, he insisted that if an agreement is signed between Israels primary sponsor and main enemy during the indirect talks that began in Oman, this will not obligate Israel to abide by it.

Last week, Netanyahu said at a cabinet meeting that Israel opposes any interim agreement between the US and Iran regarding the latters nuclear program.

Israel opposed the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), and celebrated when Donald Trump withdrew from the deal in 2018.

The deal limited Iranian uranium enrichment to 3.67 percent. After the US withdrew from the agreement, Iran began enriching to 60 percent, which is still far from the 90 percent needed for use in a nuclear weapon.

We also tell [the US] that even mini agreements, in our opinion, do not serve our goals, and we oppose those as well, Netanyahu recently stated.

At the same time, US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan reportedly accused Israeli officials of leaking information about the indirect US-Iran talks while complaining that the leaked information was inaccurate.

This included claims that the Biden administration seeks to reach an informal deal with Iran limiting its nuclear enrichment to bypass getting approval from Congress.

According to the New York Times, the US seeks an agreement that would include a pledge by Tehran not to enrich uranium beyond 60 percent purity, to better cooperate with UN nuclear inspectors, to stop attacks on US forces in Iraq and Syria, to avoid providing Russia with ballistic missiles, and to release three Americ...

This past March marked the 20th anniversary of the US and UK-led invasion of Iraq. The war, launched on the false pretext of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction and Saddam Husseins alleged cooperation with al-Qaeda, claimed up to a million lives, and brought Iraq to the precipice of failed state status.

Former Prime Minister Tony Blair has returned to the limelight to defend his decision to join the USs Iraq invasion of 2003, and to offer his opinions on the crises facing the world today.

Its always difficult to go back with hindsight. But I always say to people there are many things we would have done different. But I still think that ultimately, in the Middle East, the removal of Saddam Hussein was an important thing to do, Blair said, speaking to Japanese media in an interview published Saturday.

The politician, who now heads the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change, a Gulf sheikdom, US State Department, World Economic Forum and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation-funded non-profit, did not elaborate on why removing the Iraqi leader which destroyed Iraq and destabilized the Middle East was so important.

In hindsight, his comments are reminiscent of former Clinton Secretary of State Madeline Albrights infamous 1997 60 Minutes Interview, in which Albright said that the price of half a million Iraqi children dying as a result of Western sanctions against Baghdad was worth it.

Important Opinions

Blair, 70, also offered his opinion on world affairs, including the NATO-Russia proxy war in Ukraine, and Chinas significance in a shifting world order.

Blair, apparently unfamiliar with Russias nuclear doctrine, claimed that Beijings close relationship with Moscow played a key role in preventing Russia from using nuclear weapons in Ukraine.

Although there are many problems connected with Chinas support of Russia, the one benefit of that close relationship, which you can see in Chinas insistence that Russia does not use nuclear weapons, is I think China does not believe it is in its interest at all for this to slide towards a global conflict, he said.

The terms of Russias 2020 nuclear doctrine actually strictly prohibit the use of nuclear weapons tactical or strategic, unless the country is attacked using weapons of mass destruction, or faces a conventional attack so severe that its very existence is deemed to be at risk.

Blair, who met with Putin in the 2000s during his tenure as PM, suggested that while the Russian president was once more open to cooperation with the West, R...

After over a decade of controversy, the US-made video game Six Days in Fallujah, based on the real-life combat between US Marines and Iraqis, was released on the streaming website Steam last week.

The video game puts players in the shoes of US Marines fighting in Fallujah, an Iraqi city located around 69 kilometers west of Baghdad, during the illegal US invasion and occupation of Iraq.

For years, the video game was subject to intense criticism from peace and human rights activists for glorifying the illegal and ignominious war and whitewashing US war crimes and imperialism.

Some even called it an Arab Murder Simulator for openly glorifying the war after it barely ended.

To this day, Fallujah is still dealing with the cataclysmic effects of the war. The US military used depleted uranium shells in Fallujah (both in 1991 and 2003-2004), which caused severe pollution in the environment. They also admitted to using white phosphorus, which is considered a war crime.

The air in the city on the banks of the Euphrates is still considered toxic, and results in miscarriages, cancer, or babies born with severe abnormalities that are more than often life-threatening.

The video game developers claimed they did not want to make the game political but rather immerse the player in a real-life war environment.

Interestingly enough, some of the developers from the studio themselves participated in the war, and the studio itself is responsible for creating simulation technologies for the US Marines.

Peter Tamte, one of the developers, has been involved in military simulators for two decades. He was even CEO of Atomic Games, which published simulators used by the US Marine Corps and training tools for the worlds leading military and intelligence organizations.

But does Tamte really want to make an apolitical military simulation? Or is he complicit, knowingly or unknowingly, in the United States nearly century-long collaboration with war propaganda in the media?

And most importantly, would the US military indeed tolerate a video game that if it were not whitewashed, would display the horrific actions and brutality of the illegal invasion and occupation?

Certainly not especially during a period where the military is struggling to meet its recruiting metrics.

The US military cannot afford a bad image of itself. It also understands v...
