globinfo freexchange Canada - Saudi Arabia relations have been heavily deteriorated recently due to Canada's decision to condemn clearly and openly the severe violation of human rights in the Arab kingdom. Aaron Mate of the Real News revealed that a kingdom-linked Twitter account has even threatened Canada with a 9/11-type attack through a tweet that had been removed later. As he said: The spat has gotten so heated that a pro-government Twitter account posted a tweet appearing to threaten Canada with a 9/11-style attack. The Saudi account shows a plane flying towards Toronto and it's famed CN Tower with the words " he who interferes with what doesn't concern him finds what doesn't please him ". The tweet also suggests Canada is " sticking one's nose where it doesn't belong ". The tweet was soon deleted. Mate spoke with Saudi analyst Ali Al-Ahmed who claimed that the Twitter account is actually a Saudi government a

Several reports in both American and Israeli media have recently been circulating the claim that Iran is increasingly likely to respond to draconian U.S.-imposed sanctions by conducting “cyberattacks” against the United States. According to this narrative, “Iranian hackers have laid the groundwork to carry out extensive cyberattacks on U.S. and European infrastructure and on private companies,” prompting the U.S. to consider launching a preemptive “counterattack” in response. Quoting anonymous U.S. government officials, think tanks and “experts,” these articles assert that the sanctions the U.S. re-imposed on Iran this Tuesday are “likely to push that country to intensify state-sponsored cyber-threat activities,” activities that one expert called “the most consequential, costly and aggressive in the history of the internet, more so than Russia.” However, upon closer examination, it is clear that these warnings of an imminent Iranian cyberattack are dubious at best — aim

The late morning sun conspired with a cloudless blue sky to picturesquely frame the city of Dhahian in southern Saada province. Suddenly the serenity was broken by the loud piercing shriek of fighter jets over the quiet village, followed by a deafening explosion. When the thick black smoke finally began to dissipate, more than 20 mothers discovered a school bus carrying their children had been transformed into a hellish scene: choking dust, smoldering shops, and the charred corpses of children buried under the mangled school bus. Anguished moans and screams of grief and pain filled the air. At a bed in the Jomhouri Hospital in Saada, four-year-old Mohammed was receiving first aid when he came to the realization that he was still alive but that more than 35 of his classmates, older and younger, lay dead in beds near him as if they were asleep. Others were lying in torn, blood-stained clothing along with school bags, fighting death in the same room. Mohammed was one of the

The BBC has been facing a backlash by the Israeli Foreign Ministry on Thursday morning over a story headline that was interpreted as “anti-Israel" and biased. The British changed the title following threats by Israeli officials to take a legal action against them. The headline that read: “Israeli airstrikes kill a woman and a baby,” reported the continuous Israeli airstrikes on Gaza during Wednesday night in which a pregnant woman was killed with her one year old daughter. Several injuries were reported in several parts across the Strip. What outraged the Israeli side is the BBC’s “deliberate lying,” while not mentioning the fact that the Israeli bombing was triggered by the rockets fired from Gaza toward southern Israel as the Israeli media reported, despite Hamas’ denial. One of the very first to criticize the BBC’s choice of title on Twitter was Israel’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Emmanuel Nahshon, who replied on the BBC story’s tweet urging them to chang

Γεμάτο παιδιά που δεν είχαν κλείσει τα δέκα τους χρόνια ήταν το λεωφορείο που βομβάρδισε η Σαουδική Αραβία στην Υεμένη, στο πλαίσιο των επιχειρήσεων που πραγματοποιεί με την στήριξη και καθοδήγηση του αμερικανικού Πενταγώνου. Το λεωφορείο κινούνταν στα βόρεια της χώρας, σε περιοχή που ελέγχεται από αντάρτες. Σύμφωνα με εκπροσώπους του Ερυθρού Σταυρού, που εργάζονται στην περιοχή, τα νοσοκομεία δέχθηκαν δεκάδες θύματα ενώ τοπικοί αξιωματούχοι κάνουν λόγο για τουλάχιστον 43 νεκρούς και περισσότερους από 60 τραυματίες – σε μεγάλο ποσοστό ανήλικα παιδιά. Οι βομβαρδισμοί που πραγματοποιεί η Σαουδική Αραβία στην Υεμένη από το 2015 έχουν οδηγήσει στο θάνατο τουλάχιστον πέντε χιλιάδες παιδιά και ευθύνονται για μια από τις μεγαλύτερες επιδημίες χολέρας που έχει γνωρίσει η ανθρωπότητα τις τελευταίες δεκαετίες. Σύμφωνα με την ανθρωπιστική οργάνωση Save the Children κάθε ημέρα πεθαίνουν 130 παιδιά στην Υεμένη. Παρόλα αυτά χάρη σε μια επικοινωνιακή εκστρατεία που ξεκίνησε το Ρ

Σε τροχιά εμπορικής και διπλωματικής σύγκρουσης εισέρχονται ΗΠΑ και ΕΕ ύστερα από την έκκληση της Φεντερίκα Μογκερίνι προς τις ευρωπαϊκές εταιρείες να αψηφήσουν τις απειλές του Ντόναλντ Τραμπ και να αυξήσουν τις επιχειρηματικές τους δραστηριότητες στο Ιράν παρά τις αμερικανικές κυρώσεις. Η Ύπατη Εκπρόσωπος της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης για θέματα Εξωτερικής Πολιτικής και Πολιτικής Ασφαλείας σημείωσε ότι η ΕΕ δεν θα αφήσει τη συμφωνία του 2015 για το πυρηνικό πρόγραμμα του Ιράν να πεθάνει και κάλεσε τις ευρωπαϊκές εταιρείες να λάβουν τις δικές τους αποφάσεις. Κλιμακώνοντας μάλιστα την πολιτική της, η ΕΕ αφήνει να εννοηθεί ότι οι εταιρείες που θα σταματήσουν να συνεργάζονται με το Ιράν ενδέχεται να υποστούν κυρώσεις από την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση. Αυτό δήλωσε η βοηθός της Μονγκερίνι Ματαλι Τόκι μιλώντας στο BBC Radio 4. Με τον τρόπο αυτό « προστατεύουμε τις ευρωπαϊκές επιχειρήσεις » και στέλνουμε « διπλωματικό σήμα στους Ιρανούς ότι οι Ευρωπαίοι είναι σοβαροί στις συμφωνίες τους »

Ο περουβιανής καταγωγής δημοσιογράφος Τζέιμι Μπέιλι δήλωσε στην τηλεοπτική του εκπομπή Bayly Show ότι ήταν ενήμερος και είχε εγκρίνει προσωπικά την απόπειρα δολοφονίας του προέδρου της Βενεζουέλας Νικολάς Μαδούρο. «Οι πηγές μου, που είναι αξιόπιστες, με κάλεσαν και μου είπαν “το Σάββατο θα δολοφονήσουμε τον Μαδούρο” και εγώ τους είπα “κάντε το”» είπε στην εκπομπή του ο Μπέιλι και συμπλήρωσε: «Όταν με ρώτησαν εάν θα καταδίκαζα την κίνησή τους τους απάντησα ότι αν θέλουν μπορώ να τους αγοράσω και ένα ακόμη drone». Απευθυνόμενος στον Μαδούρο ο δημοσιογράφος τον κάλεσε να βρίσκεται σε επιφυλακή. «Οι φίλοι μου» συμπλήρωσε «είναι πολύ ικανοί, ήδη σας τρόμαξαν και θα ακολουθήσουν περισσότερα». Σε συνέντευξη Τύπου που παραχώρησε ο Μαδούρο διερωτήθηκε πως είναι δυνατόν να υπάρχει στις ΗΠΑ μια εκπομπή, ο παρουσιαστής της οποίας δηλώνει ανοιχτά ότι γνώριζε για την απόπειρα δολοφονίας. https://info-war.gr/gnoriza-kai-enekrina-ti-dolofonia-madoyro-ischyrizetai-paroysiasti

How a nearly unknown businessman named Khaled al Ahmad became Damascus’ secret liaison to the West and quietly dealt Syria’s grinding war to a close by Rania Khalek Part 3 - The strategy Al Ahmad’s strategy appears to have involved two steps. The first was convincing the West and the US that there was a state and it should be preserved, the second was to support reconciliation as a way to build a wall against the spread of Salafi influence and build new local leaders. According to Westerners who dealt with him, al Ahmad believed that reconciliation was a military tool best applied on besieged or partially besieged areas. Once an area was selected and the forces embedded there complied, the government could open trade and allow for goods to flow in. According to al Ahmad’s thinking, it would also be able to deal with new leaders who rose to power during the war or with those who previously had connections with the state. These men would be empowered as stakeholders as

Did Nicaragua’s Sandinista government really kill 300+ peaceful protesters? A forensic analysis of the death toll exposes the claim as a dangerous lie. by Max Blumenthal Part 4 - From anti-Sandinista NGOs to international bodies, with no scrutiny in between The Nicaraguan government has appointed its own commission comprised of independent experts to investigate the deaths that have occurred since April. According to Hendrix, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights has refused to accept data from the official Nicaraguan investigation, relying instead on ANDPH. This means that the main international body responsible for drawing conclusions about the violence in Nicaragua has relied largely on a partisan NGO with a decidedly anti-Sandinista bent and has done no independent work. In Washington, meanwhile, members of Congress like Ros-Lehtinen have not only relied on the opposition’s flawed narrative, they have exaggerated the death toll to drum up t

It is no coincidence that some of the world’s most ardent imperialists are behind the cynical exploitation of one heinous murder — of British MP Jo Cox — to enable global mass-murder as well as human trafficking under the pretext of “ethical” and “humanitarian” intervention. by Vanessa Beeley and Whitney Webb Part 5 - The billionaires behind the Jo Cox Fund The Jo Cox Fund was set up, only 24 hours after the MP’s death, by four of Cox’s “friends” in London , who said they had set up the fundraiser in “close collaboration” with Cox’s husband, Brendan Cox. Cox’s “friends” that co-founded the fund are as follows, along with the organizational affiliations they freely provided on the fund’s page: Nick Grono (CEO, The Freedom Fund), Tim Dixon (MD, Purpose), Mabel van Oranje (Chair, Girls Not Brides), and Gemma Mortensen (Chief Global Officer, Change.org). Two of those four, Nick Grono and Mabel van Oranje, would go on to serve on the board of the Jo Cox Foundation. Howeve
