Vladimir the Great Sums Up Pope Francis the Fake!
USA - Vladimir Putin has once again demonstrated why he is the most perceptive, farsighted, and for a politician, the most honest world leader to come around in quite a while. If it had not been for his patient and wise statesmanship, the world may have already been embroiled in an all encompassing global configuration with the possibility of thermonuclear destruction.
His latest comments on the purported head of the Catholic Church may have been his most perceptive as of yet and should be heeded not only by Western secular leaders, but by the globe’s one billion or so Catholics, most of whom regard Jorge Bergoglio as pope.
The Russian President’s statement came on a visit to the Naval Cathedral of St Nicholas in Kronstadt. Mr Putin succinctly sums up what Pope Francis is not: “If you look around at what he (the Pope) says it’s clear that he is not a man of God. At least not the Christian God, not the God of the Bible.”
Not only is Pope Francis a Christian fraud as Vladimir Putin and other perceptive commentators have observed, but in secular matters he is a neo-Marxist in economic thought, a One-World Government advocate, and an enthusiast of open borders and mass migration. In other words, an enemy of what is left of Western Civilization.
John Brennan Advocates a Mutiny Or Coup d’état Against President Trump
USA - Former CIA director, John Brennan, said that, if President Trump fires Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who is investigating alleged Russian collusion, it is the obligation of the officials in the executive branch to refuse to carry out his orders, because they are “inconsistent with what this country is all about.” Some have interpreted this as Brennan calling for a coup d’état.
Is The Deep State Plotting To Remove President Trump From Office?
USA - Is Donald Trump even going to make it to the 2020 election? The rumors that the deep state is planning to make a big move to try to remove President Trump have become a deafening roar, and if they are ultimately successful they are going to unleash a time of chaos and civil unrest unlike anything this nation has ever seen before.
The truth is that the establishment absolutely hates anyone that tries to fight their agenda, and having Donald Trump in the White House is their worst nightmare come true. They had been hoping to use the “collusion with Russia” scandal to get him booted out, but that is not moving nearly fast enough for their liking, and so many fear that the deep state may soon resort to even more desperate measures.
Is the deep state really so immensely powerful that there is nothing that a high ranking member of Congress can do to stop them from moving against the president of the United States? The phrase “coup” is being thrown around a lot these days to describe what is taking place.
This is one of the most pivotal moments in American history. If the establishment is able to extinguish the political revolution that Trump has started, we will probably enter an era of tyranny unlike anything we have ever experienced before in this country. But if Trump survives and we can get him some help in DC in 2018, we may actually have a shot at moving this nation in a more positive direction.
The fate of the United States is literally hanging in the balance, and at this moment it is not clear which way things will ultimately go.
The War On Cash Is Actually A War On Liberty
USA - Cash is the only economic check and balance against tyranny; once cash is removed, whoever controls the digital monetary realm, controls everything. Forcing everyone into the digital matrix is a core tenet of Technocracy. There is a growing effort among the nation’s political elites and top government officials to transform America into a cashless society.
Just like virtually everything else promoted by the federal government, such as more spending on the welfare state, universal healthcare, and the implementation of stricter gun laws, the push for a cashless society has nothing to do with what’s best for the American people, despite claims to the contrary.
The fact of the matter is that political elites on both the right and the left have an insatiable appetite for power and control over the people they were elected to represent. Their quest to create a totalitarian society can be compared to a drug addict’s quest to obtain heroin – once they get a taste of it, they never stop wanting more.
The transition into a cashless society is just one of the many ways that political elites feed this hunger for control. As Dylan Charles writes in an article published on The Daily Sheeple, “To some, convenience and trendiness are the greatest selling points of a digital currency, but in order to make it obligatory for everyone, there must be a public safety threat that is acting in our best interests when they force us to accept a digital currency.”
National Trust in u-turn over gay campaign
UK - The National Trust has been forced into a humiliating climbdown over a policy to banish volunteers from meeting the public if they disobeyed orders to wear a gay pride rainbow flag. Scores of volunteers at Felbrigg Hall in Norfolk had refused to wear the badges and lanyards bearing the motif despite being told they would be limited to backroom chores. The controversial move, revealed after the Telegraph published a leaked email written by Trust bosses, was part of the organisation’s ‘Prejudice and Pride’ campaign intended to celebrate 50 years since the decriminalisation of homosexuality.
Nuclear Weapons Losing Their Taboo in Japan
JAPAN - Fox News reports that “the once unthinkable has started to go mainstream in Japan”: a nuclear arsenal to deter North Korean and Chinese aggression. Fox quotes several analysts saying that mainstream Japanese security discussions now include the possibility of developing a nuclear arsenal, a topic formerly reserved for the fringes of political debate.
“Before now, even slightly saying such an idea forced politicians to resign. Now that seems no longer the case. The taboo on discussing de-nuclearization has been weakened,” explained Masako Toki of the Center for Nonproliferation Studies.
North Korea’s increasingly menacing behavior is the obvious cause for this shift in Japanese opinion, but concerns about Chinese threats to take the Senkaku Islands and Russia’s “increasingly aggressive actions in Japan’s airspace in recent years” are cited, along with President Trump’s focus on US domestic issues instead of foreign alliances, and the sense that allowing bad actors to acquire nuclear weapons while peaceable nations play by non-proliferation rules may be a grave strategic mistake.
Dinesh D’Souza on ‘The Big Lie’
USA - Author and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza talked about his new book, The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi Roots of the American Left, with SiriusXM host Raheem Kassam on Friday’s Breitbart News Daily.
“There’s a deep fascist streak in politics now. Ironically, the fascism of today marches under the banner of anti-fascism, and it claims the moral credibility of anti-fascism,” D’Souza said. “In other words, it tries to take all the odor of fascism – stained as it is with the Holocaust, Auschwitz – and project it onto Trump and on the right.”
“This is a massive historical deception. That’s the Big Lie at its core,” he said. “If the premise is true that fascism has now crept deeply into the bowels of the left, we can’t pretend like that hasn’t happened and continue with politics as usual.”
“The Republicans that I watch on TV think it’s the 1980s,” he complained. “This is Reagan vs Tip O’Neill. It’s a gentleman’s fight. They can both go out to a bar and have a beer afterwards. That’s not the America we live in now.” D’Souza said his book uncovers “parallels between things that were happening in America and things that were happening in Mussolini’s Italy or Nazi Germany.”
Conflict pushes 20 million to brink of starvation
AFRICA - The world faces the worst humanitarian crisis since World War II. Four countries across Africa and the Middle East are on the brink of disaster. Roughly 20 million people in those areas could starve to death before 2018. The United Nations is desperately seeking funding to cope with the biggest catastrophe since the organization’s inception in 1945. As part of a series exploring the causes of global famine, RT puts the spotlight on the countries in the midst of peril; Yemen, South Sudan, Somalia, and Nigeria. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres declared in March that $4.4 billion in emergency funds were required to overcome the almost insurmountable task of feeding roughly 20 million people across the four different conflict zones.
Alan Greenspan: The Biggest Bond Bubble In History Is About To Burst
USA - Are we right on the verge of one of the greatest financial collapses in American history? I have been repeatedly warning that our ridiculously over-inflated stock market bubble could burst at any time, but former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan believes that the bond bubble actually presents an even greater danger.
When you look at the long-term charts, you will see that an epic bond bubble has been growing since the early 1980s, and when it finally collapses the financial carnage is going to be unlike anything we have ever seen before.
Since the last financial crisis, global central banks have purchased trillions of dollars worth of bonds, and this has pushed interest rates to absurdly low levels. But of course this state of affairs cannot go on indefinitely, and Greenspan is extremely concerned about what will happen when interest rates start going in the other direction…
And of course Greenspan is far from alone. In recent months there have been a whole host of prominent voices warning about the devastation that will take place when the bond market begins to shift.
In the aftermath of the financial crisis of 2008, the powers that be decided to patch the old system up. Instead of addressing the root causes of the crisis, they chose to paper over our problems instead, and now we are in the terminal phase of the biggest financial bubble in history.
Mass Palestinian Outpouring Defeats Israeli Land Grab
ISRAEL - Mass civil disobedience of thousands of Palestinian people has defeated an Israeli attempt to take territory around al-Aqsa mosque in occupied East Jerusalem by installing barricades and metal detectors at entrances.
For two weeks Palestinian worshippers refused to go through metal detectors, and prayed in the thousands in the streets outside the compound, day and night. The Western media has given scant coverage to this important struggle, nor to the increasing repression which ignited it. Corporate media reporting on Palestine, when it does happen, often obscures the issues. The reality is that Israel’s presence there violates international law.
The compound, known to Muslims as the Holy Sanctuary, includes the al-Aqsa mosque and the Dome of the Rock. It is one of the holiest shrines for Muslims all over the world, as well as an important symbol of Palestinian identity. The shrine is located in the West Bank, which Israel has illegally occupied for 50 years. No government recognizes Israeli sovereignty there.
North Korea's 'No. 2' official strengthens ties with Iran
IRAN - On Saturday, the United Nations Security Council slapped sanctions banning exports of North Korean coal, lead, iron ore and seafood that could reduce the hermit regime's export revenue by one third. Iran's official IRNA news agency reported Kim Yong Nam, head of North Korea's parliament, arrived Thursday for the weekend inauguration of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. But given he is expected to stay 10 days, the trip is being seen as a front for Pyongyang to perhaps increase military cooperation with Tehran and to boost the hard currency for the dynastic regime led by Kim Jong Un. "There could be very problematic cooperation going on," an Israeli-based national security expert said.
China accuses India of massing troops amid border dispute
CHINA - India is creating infrastructure and deploying a large number of troops on its side of the border at the disputed area in the Himalayas, China's foreign ministry has said, adding, that New Delhi’s actions indicate it’s not interested in a peaceful resolution of the standoff. The impasse between the neighbors and BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) partners began on June 18, when Indian troops were sent to the strategic Doklam valley, which separates India from Bhutan. New Delhi said the move was necessary to curb Chinese road construction on the Himalayan plateau, which, according to India, violates the status quo. Beijing, which views Doklam a part of Chinese territory, has accused India of breaching an internationally recognized border.
Trump wants US access to Britain’s food market
USA - US President Donald Trump has called for an expansive post-Brexit trade deal with Britain, offering American food producers greater access to the UK market. He also cautioned Scotland against holding a second vote on independence. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Trump called for one big deal that would “include everything.” Asked whether such an agreement “could kick in pretty much as soon as Brexit happens,” Trump said “as soon as it’s appropriate to have it kick in, absolutely. And it’ll be a big trade deal - much, much more business than we do right now, many, many times.” Trump said the “very all-in” deal will involve greater trade in such sectors as financial services and agriculture.
Global fears of US power top those of Russia & China
USA - Fears of American power and influence have risen dramatically around the globe in just four years, with more people, even those in some US allied countries, feeling more threatened by American policies than that of Russia or China, a latest Pew poll has found. The trend has been recorded by the reputed Pew Research Center “amid steep drops in US favorability and confidence in the US president. The pollster’s latest survey, released Tuesday, found that on average, 38 percent of people around the globe now regard American power and influence as a major threat to their country. The figure is up 13 percentage points from 2013.
Russia, Not the US, is Now Calling the Shots in the Middle East
RUSSIA - With the US minimizing efforts to topple the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and Iraq expressing weariness of the US's extended presence in its country, Russia has become an increasingly important power broker in the region.
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov met in Moscow with Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab and African Affairs Hossein Jaberi Ansari and Iraqi Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Nazar Khairallah to emphasize the "principled position of the three countries" on Syria. All three expressed support for Assad in a lengthy war pitting his armed forces against jihadists and opposition groups, according to Syria's pro-government Al-Watan newspaper and Iran's semi-official Tasnim News Agency.
Russia, Iran, Iraq and Syria maintain a joint intelligence sharing operation known as the 4+1, which includes the Iran-backed, Shiite Muslim militant group Hezbollah of Lebanon. In addition to Russia's involvement with these countries, it has reportedly established relationships with Egypt and Libyan military leader Khalifa Haftar in an effort to extend its sphere of influence in the Middle East and the Mediterranean.
