US-backed coalition bombs wedding party in Yemen, killing dozens

Weeks after President Donald Trump thanked Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince for his country's use of U.S. military power, the U.S.-backed coalition bombed a wedding party in Yemen, killing at least 20 civilians including the bride. The number of casualties is expected to rise. On social media, journalist Glenn Greenwald reminded readers of the U.S. connection to Saudi Arabia's assault on the impoverished country, which has led to what the U.N. has called "the worst man-made humanitarian crisis of our time"—and which would not be possible without U.S. support. The massacre at a wedding in Houthi-controlled Hajjah province took place just weeks after Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS) visited the U.S., posing for photos with wealthy business leaders and meeting with Trump at the White House. The president praised Saudi Arabia for its support of the U.S. in the arms trade, "in the form of the purchase of the finest military equipm

The selective progressiveness of the fake Left

by system failure Trump's rise in power helped towards the complete exposure of what is considered 'Left' in America, which is actually the neoliberal establishment with a Lefty mask, and has nothing to do with the real Left. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and all the mainstream media of the neoliberal machine exhibited a totally selective progressiveness, which can be identified in multiple cases. Take for example their behavior against two different groups in America. The fake Left has no problem to express its progressiveness in favor of the LGBT community, but has literally declared war against the working class and labor rights, not only in the US, but in every mature capitalist country in the West. But now, with Trump in power, there is plenty of evidence for the hypocrisy of the fake Left inside and outside the US. Because the other key feature of the real Left is that it is permanently and unconditionally anti-war. Well, guess w

Russia had no interest in Skripal, UK hiding spy & daughter to stop them talking

The UK security services are most likely hiding the Skripals as they do not want them to reveal any details about their case, former Czech spy Karel Koecher told RT’s Sophie Shevardnadze. “ [Former Russian double agent Sergei] Skripal most definitely wasn’t a victim of any kind of operation or attack from the Russian side, ” said Koecher, who was a Soviet mole who successfully penetrated the CIA. He went on to say that “ as far as Russia is concerned, and I honestly believe it, they had absolutely no interest in Skripal at all, ” adding that the mere fact that Moscow had previously agreed to swap him for Russian agents was evidence of that. Attacking the former agent after he was swapped would “ totally destroy Russian credibility as far as [spy] exchanges are concerned, ” said the former Czech spy. He then explained that a spy swap is almost the “ only way ” to get agents with no diplomatic cover back in the event that they are caught or arrested. The Russian

Most French trains cancelled on 9th day of strike, workers occupy building

Striking French train workers have occupied a building in a protest against President Emmanuel Macron’s changes to the state-run rail company. At least 150 union activists mounted fire stairs to enter the freight offices of rail company SNCF in the Paris suburb of Clichy in Monday’s protest action, AP said. Riot police surrounded the site and blocked the road outside while protesters lit flares, hung huge banners from windows and sang protest songs. Many of the employees appeared to have left the building. Most trains in France were cancelled Monday, the ninth day of a nationwide strike over a plan to take away worker benefits to allow the company to open up to competition. https://www.rt.com/newsline/424903-france-train-workers-strike/

Snipers ordered to shoot children, Israeli general confirms

An Israeli general has confirmed that when snipers stationed along Israel’s boundary with Gaza shoot at children, they are doing so deliberately, under clear and specific orders. In a radio interview, Brigadier-General (Reserve) Zvika Fogel describes how a sniper identifies the “small body” of a child and is given authorization to shoot. Fogel’s statements could be used as evidence of intent if Israeli leaders are ever tried for war crimes at the International Criminal Court. On Friday, an Israeli sniper shot dead 14-year-old Muhammad Ibrahim Ayyoub. The boy, shot in the head east of Jabaliya, was the fourth child among the more than 30 Palestinians killed during the Great March of Return rallies that began in Gaza on 30 March. More than 1,600 other Palestinians have been shot with live ammunition that has caused what doctors are calling “horrific injuries” likely to leave many of them with permanent disabilities. As eyewitnesses and v

Οι ελεύθεροι σκοπευτές του Ισραήλ έχουν εντολή όταν πυροβολούν παιδιά

Ισραηλινός στρατηγός επιβεβαιώνει ότι οι ελεύθεροι σκοπευτές που πυροβολούν παιδιά στα σύνορα του Ισραήλ με τη Γάζα το κάνουν σκόπιμα, ακολουθώντας συγκεκριμένες και σαφείς εντολές. Την περασμένη Παρασκευή ο 14χρονος Muhammad Ibrahim Ayyoub έπεσε νεκρός από τα πυρά ισραηλινού ελεύθερου σκοπευτή. Όπως επιβεβαιώνουν αυτόπτες μάρτυρες και οπτικοακουστικό υλικό, ο Muhammad Ibrahim Ayyoub δεν θα μπορούσε με κανένα τρόπο να έχει φανεί επικίνδυνος για τους βαριά οπλισμένους Ισραηλινούς στρατιώτες που βρίσκονταν δεκάδες μέτρα μακριά, πίσω από περιφράξεις και οχυρώματα. Παρ’όλα αυτά, τα ισραηλινά πυρά τον χτύπησαν στο κεφάλι. Είναι το τέταρτο παιδί που χάνει τη ζωή του στο πλαίσιο της «Μεγάλης Πορείας της Επιστροφής» που ξεκίνησε στις 30 Μαρτίου. Συνολικά πάνω από 1600 Παλαιστίνιοι έχουν χτυπηθεί από ισραηλινά πυρά που προκαλούν πολύ σοβαρούς τραυματισμούς, μόνιμη αναπηρία και θάνατο. Σε ραδιοφωνική συνέντευξη (που μεταφράστηκε από το Electronic Intifada) στον ι

FairCoin: Ένα κρυπτονόμισμα για τη δίκαιη οικονομία

Ένα εναλλακτικό, ψηφιακό, οικολογικό νόμισμα με στόχο τη δημιουργία ενός μετα-καπιταλιστικού μοντέλου. Αυτή είναι η βασική ιδέα πίσω από το κρυπτονόμισμα FairCoin, που δημιουργήθηκε με σκοπό την προώθηση της ισότητας και της οικονομικής δικαιοσύνης. Η ιστορία ξεκίνησε το 2010 στην Καταλονία ως πείραμα μιας μικρής ομάδας ακτιβιστών και κατέληξε τον Σεπτέμβριο του 2014 με τη «γέννηση» της FairCoop -ενός αποκεντρωμένου κινήματος βάσης, ενός διεθνούς συνεταιρισμού που αυτοοργανώνεται μέσω διαδικτύου- που απλώθηκε στις πέντε ηπείρους και στη συνέχεια, δημιούργησε το FairCoin. Με άλλα λόγια, το FairCoin είναι το κρυπτονόμισμα που η FairCoop επέλεξε για να στηρίξει νομισματικά τη δημιουργία του αυτοδιαχειριζόμενου κοινωνικοοικονομικού συστήματος της, συνεπώς δεν έχει τίποτα κοινό με το bitcoin ή, όποιο άλλο από τα γνωστά κρυπτονομίσματα που φέρουν τις «αρχετυπικές», «παραδοσιακές αξίες» του καπιταλισμού, όπως, για παράδειγμα, τη διαρκή προσπάθεια φοροαποφυγής.

‘Mind Control’ leak? US FOIA request reveals docs on ‘psycho-electronic’ weapons

Journalist Curtis Waltman was researching Washington State's documents on antifa and white supremacist organizations and decided the best place to inquire would be the Washington State Fusion Center, a state-run hub for counter-terror and cyber security work and other matters ostensibly related to national security. The government responds electronically to FOIA requests, attaching the requested documents. One can only assume a mistake was made when they sent Waltman a batch of documents entitled "EM effects on human body.zip." "EM," in this case, refers to electromagnetic. More specifically, the documents detail "psycho-electronic" weapons. The documents show a human diagram with descriptors of the weapon capabilities that correspond to each part of our anatomy. The document also claims the weapon can induce a "forced orgasm." But with great power comes great responsibility, as it can apparently also b

White Propaganda and Perception Management: the origins of 'chemical weapons' false flag operations

globinfo freexchange In the early 80s, Ronald Reagan's neocons decided that they should overthrow the democratically elected government of Nicaragua. An agency called the Office of Public Diplomacy was set up that disseminated what was called "white propaganda". It produced dossiers and fed stories to journalists that “proved” Soviet fighter planes had arrived in Nicaragua to attack America. Another story, from "intelligence sources", said that the Soviets had given stock piles of chemical weapons to the Sandinistas. President Reagan appeared on TV with maps to show how quickly such a chemical attack could be launched on America itself. It was only a matter of time. Reagan also told America that Nicaragua was part of an access of rogue states, including Iran and North Korea, who together ran a global network of terror. Those who run the Office of Public Diplomacy , called this technique "Perception Management". Th

US corporate propaganda media officially declares war on independent media

globinfo freexchange CNN has finally stopped ignoring independent media. During the 2016 election cycle, most of the mainstream media made their best effort to pretend that independent media did not exist. They would make their best effort to refute our claims and evidence, but would never address our platforms or name us directly. When indy media would bring facts, the mainstream media would attempt ineffective counter-measures to no avail. How do I know these counter-measures have been largely unsuccessful? Because on April 19th CNN Money released an article pressuring big name companies to demonetize "far right" and "extreme left" wing media channels, even going to the lengths of pointing some off by name. The two biggest names attacked in the article were Alex Jones of Info Wars and Jimmy Dore of the Jimmy Dore Show, Aggressive Progressives, and The Young Turks. Granted, Alex Jones has been a handful for both the right and the
