When NATO undertook the job of providing air support for Libyan rebels one of the actions they were tacitly supporting was the demolition of the Libyan state security apparatus. A hated tool of repression, those employed in it were slaughtered where ever they were found, offices were looted, files were burned, and systems destroyed. The effort to stabilize the country now involves their former colonial masters, the Italians, helping to rebuild this government function. Rebuilding the Libyan Intelligence provides a decent read with Italian to English translation.
From the beginning of 2003 to the end of 2009, portions of Iran, Iraq, Turkey and Syria that lie within the Tigris and Euphrates river basins shed 117 million acre-feet of water. That’s roughly equivalent to the volume of the Dead Sea.
The climate crisis demands our immediate attention. Climate change could devastate thousands of at-risk communities beyond repair and leave the face of the earth scarred. We cannot be alarmist enough about continued climate change and the threat it poses to life on this planet. This is the first time in the history of this planet that a species altered global climate to such a degree. The future of life on this planet is entering a period of extreme risk and few are offering rational solutions.
Leftists and environmentalists are correct to confront this issue with great urgency. Climate change grows exponentially as powerful elites continue to pursue a course dominated by the consumption of fossil fuels. Social movements continue to challenge the power of states throughout the globe to continue this destructive course. These movements are large, powerful, and often diverse. They face a very strong opponent, however, and have yet to really land a blow against the powerful capitalist elites that seek to profit from climate change rather than prevent it.
Structure hit, suicide bomber success, another suicide bomber at the hospital handling casualties, and then a unit of unknown size storms the hospital in an attack lasting hours? I first noticed the Balochistan independence movement about six months ago. The action that gets reported has thus far been in Pakistan.
The structure hit was indeed the Balochistan Liberation Army, striking a symbolic target with no loss of life.The suicide bombings and armed assault were not at all related. … So I had some good background, some good maps, but this one conceptual error throws the whole piece off kilter. Rather than editing it in place, I felt a clean update was best.
Oil producers are subject to an effect know as the Export Land Model. Basically, oil fuels internal growth and when production declines exports decline even more swiftly, as producers steer production into uses at home. Egypt, Syria, and Yemen have all featured heavily here and they are first up in the ominously titled How Oil Exporters Reach Financial Collapse.
The ethnic and sectarian divides in Syria are fueling their civil war, and they have a long history of intervention in the affairs of Lebanon. These maps show with increasing focus the ethnic and religious groups that inhabit the region.
If you control the use of words and numbers, you can make trillions of dollars, and you can hide scandals that would otherwise take you down into infamy and prison.
You can pretty much operate a whole sector of society and remain untouched.
Nowhere is this more clear than in the criminal work of the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
The real name of that agency should be: Centers for Disease Information Control. That’s what they do. They manipulate words and numbers to present fictional images to the public.
They’re a tax-funded PR front for the medical cartel. A 24/7 psyop.
“Yes, of course I’m a criminal. I work for the CDC.”
Here is the latest blockbuster.
After writing about fake vaccine science since 1988, I thought I’d seen it all:
Wild falsehoods about vaccines creating immunity; suppressed information about toxic ingredients in the shots; the absence of proper controlled studies proving vaccines are safe and effective.
But now Peter Doshi, PhD, writing in the online BMJ (British Medical Journal), reveals a new monstrosity. It’s all based on the revelation that most “flu” is not the flu.
Follow this closely. If you blink, you might miss it.
You see, as Doshi states, every year, hundreds of thousands of respiratory samples are taken from flu patients in the US and tested in labs. Here is the kicker: only a small percentage of these samples show the presence of a flu virus.
This means: most of the people in America who are diagnosed by doctors with the flu have no flu virus in their bodies.
MANAGUA, Nicaragua – Fast-tracking a proposal through the ruling party-controlled Congress despite a lack of details about the $40 billion project, Nicaragua is moving ahead with a plan to dig a Chinese-funded rival to the Panama Canal across the midriff of the country.
A China-based consortium says it will finance the project and turn over control of the infrastructure to Nicaragua in exchange for a majority of the earnings, which it would share with the Nicaraguan government.

Proponents have said the project could capture 4.5 percent of world maritime freight traffic and double the per-capita gross domestic product of Nicaragua, one of the poorest countries in Latin America. The canal has won the enthusiastic backing of President Daniel Ortega, whose Sandinista Front controls the national legislature with 63 out of 92 lawmakers.
For those of you more interested in understanding the basics/dynamics of Scalar/Longitudinal-Waves, and their potential applications, see description/video below.
YouTube Abstract: Wireless Engineer Eric Dollard demonstrates the reality of longitudinal waves and their application to the natural transmision of electricity…The Longitudinal Magneto-Dielectric wave (L.M.D.) is shown to have a propagating velocity greater than the speed of light! The transverse electromagnetic wave, (in present use) is shown to be a retarded, unnatural form of energy transmission…A competent researcher can duplicate the experiments on this video from the information given…This is a rip from an old VHS someone posted on the web and is now posted in numerous places.
