The recent deaths of four American soldiers in Niger was tragic, but the real tragedy has been the cover up of what happened. The facts and details seem to change daily and the timeline explanations are as squirrely as the Vegas shooting investigation.
The military is trying to make us believe that this is nothing more than a typical foreign internal defense mission that went bad. The blame went on a newly created threat, the Islamic Threat in the Sahel, which the DoD abbreviated as ISIS. Of course it has no connection in reality to the ISIS in the Middle East, but they are hoping we fall for it.
It looks like this was a continuation of a failed policy that started as Human Terrain Operations. When it failed miserably, it was reborn as Cultural Knowledge Consortium. When it failed, it was reborn as the Global Cultural Knowledge Network.

The Niger disaster has a long history. And sadly this isn’t new.
What I find sad is that this isn’t a new plan or concept. We’ve been doing this for years, yet none of us have heard anything about it. What’s funny is that in our continued failures in the Middle East, if any of this stuff really worked, you know the military would be touting its success on the front pages of every media outlet around. …
The sanctions war against Russia all lead back to the coup in the Ukraine. The EU and the US spent billions to topple the government and install NATO weaponry on Russia’s borders.
Russia called foul and we countered with sanctions to punish Russia’s economy. Russia has done well in spite of the sanctions, but the battle against those who would stand up to the EU and the US goes on.…
Both the neo cons and neo libs are the war party as we all know. If it was only about ideology, they might be excused. Opinions vary and we can all debate the pros and cons.
Sadly for those of us who pay the taxes that fund their shenanigans, it’s rarely about ideology. It’s either about making lots of money off of our military industrial complex, or about doing the bidding of our handlers like Israel or Saudi Arabia.
Turkey decided to buy a better air defense system for far less money. Nato has promised “consequences”. No one is questioning Turkey spending their own money in a prudent manner. The complaint is that it isn’t a US system and it comes from the evil Russians.
This will be interesting to watch as it develops. …
Sloppy work on the part of the Mueller team, but I doubt that anyone will really care. This has always been about trying to turn Manafort into a “snitch” and to punish those who might try to stand up to the deep state.
The author of this article makes a good point. They suggest that if meddling in the Ukraine is a crime then what haven’t John McCain and Victoria Nuland been indicted yet.…
Yesterday we got the huge announcement – Paul Manafort was indicted.
For those of us who have been paying attention, we recognize that this isn’t really about Paul Manafort. There are two dynamics going on here, and none of them are good for the rest of us.
The deep state hates us and our representative Donald Trump. They tried their best to get him to lose both the nomination and the election and now they continue to do their best to cause us to stop supporting him. So far they’ve failed miserably.
Manafort was the target of the deep state, with their thinking they can get Manafort to lie about Trump in order to escape legal punishment. We’ll see how that works.
It’s interesting to see what they are charging Manafort with. He was hired to look out for the interests of the democratically-elected president of Ukrain. Today’s post is a reminder of how the US orchestrated a coup in the Ukraine. For those who don’t remember, the US spent over $5 BILLION on this coup to replace the democratically-elected leader with what turned out to be actual Nazis! Folks use the term a lot, but these guys really are! What was the former President’s crime? He was friendly to Russia.
Of course our “good friend” John McCain was on the ground in the Ukraine, touting the evils of the Russians. The Russians responded to this coup to protect Crimea, and they whole series of sanctions that continue to this day started.
The Neo goal was to get Ukraine both into the EU and NATO and put western weaponry on the border of Russia.…
Diplomacy kept the Cold War from ever going nuclear. With the fall of the Soviet Union, our diplomacy changed from the State Department to the Department of Defense. Brute force became the strategy and the tactic.
Our two largest “competitors” on the world stage, China and Russia have taken different roads in their path to becoming a challenger to the US’s sole superpower status.
China is doing it primarily with economic methods, building alliances throughout the world. Russia has worked it primarily through protecting its homeland. The Soviet Union experienced 26.6 to 40 MILLION casualties during WWII, so defending their borders is very understandable.
The “hatred” of Russia by the US isn’t understandable, yet with 7000 nuclear warheads, we can’t push too hard. You’d think that real diplomacy would be a good start. Perhaps chastising them for something that they don’t do and we do isn’t too smart.…
Congress has a history of acting as our “betters”. Laws for you but not for us. Obamacare is just one of many examples. If Congress got the same care as offered by Obamacare or the VA, the law would be changed today.
Well, it appears that sexual misconduct is another area where the rules don’t apply to them. Who knew that they actually passed a law ironically called the “Congressional Accountability Act” that essentially makes it almost impossible for an aggrieved victim to pursue justice against a congress person.
Even better, when an individual actually won’t give in and goes through the unwieldy process and wins their complaint, the individual congress person isn’t the one who is punished.
You and I do! There is actually a congress-created budget to pay these fines and settlements! It’s spent over $15 million of our tax dollars over the years since the law was passed.…
I love it when the social justice types turn on themselves.
People should remember Wade Rathke. He is the founder of Acorn, the liberal group that was taken down in the Obama years when it was revealed how they lied and cheated and got others to do the same. Of course they never went away, changing names in the US, but not changing tactics.
Soros has coughed up over $3 Billion to Wade Rathke for Acorn, and a bunch of other evil groups.
So, now Alphabet (the company that owns Google) has won a contract to build a “perfect” city on 800 acres of land in Ontario. Here are just some of the wonderful things this perfect city plans on:
a thermal energy grid that would be carbon neutral, sensors that separate waste from recycling, modular buildings that convert from retail to housing, monitors that track noise and pollution, self-driving transit shuttles, shared-ride taxibots, adaptive traffic lights, delivery robots.
And the Soros activist doesn't like it. Got to love it.…
Google is taking its battle against misleading information to the real world. The company has partnered with the International Fact-Checking Network, a nonpartisan organization run by The Poynter Institute that advocates across the globe for accuracy in online articles. The IFCN holds an annual fact-checking conference, funds fellowships and provides training for would-be fake-news detectives, plus it's the author behind a widely accepted code of principles for media organizations.
Earlier, Google partnered with the since discredited Snopes and Polititicact for this service.
Who owns this new group that is working “in our best interest”?
These include Google (driving the Transhumanist agenda), Bill Gates (who has cropped up in the last 3 years to support vaccines, GMOs, Common Core and other NWO initiatives), George Soros (master manipulator behind the Ukraine coup of 2014, Black Lives Matter and other movements to disrupt the law and socially engineer society) and Pierre Omidyar (current owner of PayPal connected to the Military Intelligence complex via Booz Allen Hamilton).
With all of that said, anyone who “believes” what they read on Google or Facebook without verification is pretty dumb.…
