  The Empire Doubles Down: Open Society Foundations Will Now Be Run by Lord Malloch Brown by aletho By Matthew Ehret | Strategic Culture Foundation | December 11, 2020 The hubris of empire has always struck me with shock and awe. I mean it really takes balls to get caught with a prostitute and instead of apologizing to your wife, to instead buy the hooker a new fur coat and parade her publicly at a public event. Such has been the case with George Soros’ long time bosom buddy Lord Mark Malloch Brown who after being revealed as a leading force behind the software used by the infamous Dominion Voting systems via Smartmatic (which transferred its operating systems to Dominion via Sequoia Inc), has now been made the president of Soros’ global Open Society Foundations. What is the logic behind such a decision? Simple: If these characters were truly guilty of the crimes they are being accused of, then why would they behave so unapologetically in public? Surely to be so confident, they mus...

  There is no ‘Russian secret war’ on the US, but WaPo fantasy risks Biden starting a very real one by aletho By Nebojsa Malic | RT | December 12, 2020 In a normal world, the Washington Post claiming the existence of a Russian ‘secret war’ against the US based on far-fetched conjecture and debunked conspiracy theories would be a laughing matter. We don’t live in such a world. Democrat Joe Biden, anointed by the US mainstream media and Silicon Valley as the next president, “must call out Putin’s secret war against the United States” when he assumes office, the Post’s editorial board argued this week. But this “secret war” exists only in their feverish imagination. Each and every one of the things they list as examples of it consists of assertions based on insinuation at best, or has otherwise been debunked as outright fake news. Exhibit A is the “mysterious attacks” that supposedly “targeted” US diplomats and spies in Cuba, China, Australia and Taiwan. This ‘Havana Syndrome’ was bla...

  The “Expert Consensus” Also Favored Alcohol Prohibition by aletho By Jeffrey A. Tucker | American Institute for Economic Research | December 11, 2020 Most people today regard America’s experiment with alcohol prohibition as a national embarrassment, rightly repealed in 1933. So it will be with the closures and lockdowns of 2020, someday. In 1920, however, to be for the repeal of the prohibition that was passed took courage. You were arguing against prevailing opinion backed by celebratory scientists and exalted social thinkers. What you were saying flew in the face of “expert consensus.” There is an obvious analogy to Lockdowns 2020. My first inkling of this prohibition history came in reading transcripts of the then-famous Radio Priest James Gillis from the 1920s. He was against prohibiting alcohol production and sale on grounds that the social costs far outweighed the supposed benefits. What surprised me was the defensiveness of his comments. He had to assure his listeners that...

  What I wrote and published was republished as a post on 1/15/2020 in the midst of the revolutionary ferment, whose blessings exploded during December 2018. And coinciding with the second anniversary of this revolution, which is still alive and its burning flame has not yet been extinguished, but rather it grows more fiercer every day and another, in our present life .. And that is without modification or comment on what I wrote at the time. ****** Democratic popular revolution: a light at the end of the tunnel •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••      If the current uprising that began last December wants to border the horizon established by the uprising of 21 / October / 1964 and March-April 1985, it must turn into a general and comprehensive revolution that represents the true interests and aspirations of all segments and social groups that make up the Sudanese people in Its historical and contemporary diversity. (1) The meeting point of the interests of t...

  UN calls for probe into Israel’s use of armed force against children by aletho RAMALLAH - The UN Human Rights Office of the High Commissioner has called for a transparent investigation into the use of armed force by Israeli soldiers against Palestinian children in the occupied West Bank. The UN Human Rights Office said that the Israeli forces critically injured at least four children with live ammunition and rubber-coated metal bullets in separate incidents across the West Bank in the past two weeks. “All injuries resulted from the use of potentially lethal force in circumstances where available information suggests the children did not pose a threat to life or serious injury of the soldiers or to anyone else.” “It thus appears the force used was not in accordance with international law,” the Human Rights Office said in a statement, pointing out that a 16-year-old boy was shot in the chest and critically injured in al-Bireh city on November 29. “On 27 November, during protests in...

  Not a new dawn: Why the Israel-Sudan deal was a long time coming By Yotam Gidron -October 30, 2020 With U.S. backing, Israel has long bribed Khartoum into cooperating on regional policy. Normalization is the latest stage in that history. The normalization of relations between Israel and Sudan, publicly announced on Oct. 23, has been on the horizon for several years now. News reports from the past weeks have consistently portrayed the normalization deal as a story about a staunch enemy of Israel abandoning its old ways and turning into a friend. The Khartoum Summit of 1967, in which Arab leaders called for “no peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, and no negotiation with Israel,” has been repeatedly invoked by commentators to support this narrative. But the longer history of Israeli-Sudanese engagements is a more complex one — somewhat less transformative, and yet closely linked to the ongoing efforts of both states to manage their position vis-à-vis the Arab world. Once Ir...
