The blacklist of a panicked, falling empire

The desperate flailing of a mainstream-media struggling through the five stages of grief continues as no lesser unbiased foundation of the fourth estate than The Washington Post pushes ahead with its “fake news, blame the Russians” narrative for why their candidate failed so miserably. Citing “two teams of independent researchers” (who surely have a substantial libel litigation provision) who found “Russia’s increasingly sophisticated propaganda machinery… echoed and amplified right-wing sites across the Internet as they portrayed Clinton as a criminal,” the Jeff Bezos-owned website names The Anti-Media, Drudge, Zero Hedge, and The Ron Paul Institute and countless other outlets among the “useful idiots” that true American patriots should be wary of. [...] The report from PropOrNot, provided to the Post, identifies more than 200 websites that routinely pushed Russian propaganda to at least 15 million Americans, and found that false stories pushed on Faceb

Bureau of Prisons visit to CIA torture site in Afghanistan confirmed

One of the many alarming facts that came to light with the release of the executive summary of the Senate Torture Report in 2014 was that the Justice Department’s Bureau of Prisons had sent a “delegation of several officers” to Afghanistan to conduct an assessment an infamous CIA detention site and concluded the CIA “did not mistreat the detainees.” Senate investigators found that the Bureau officers visited a detention site codenamed Cobalt north of Kabul in November 2002. That site — also known as the Salt Pit — has become infamous for the brutal torture inflicted on detainees there, including rectal exams conducted with “excessive force.” According to Senate investigators, the CIA’s own employees described the facility as “a dungeon,” where detainees “cowered” as interrogators opened the door and “looked like a dog that had been kenneled.” In April, the ACLU filed suit to obtain documents related to the visit, which the Bureau of Prisons initially claimed d

John Major speaks about the 'tyranny of the majority'!

A pure sample of neoliberal fascist elitism Former British prime minister John Major has expressed the likelihood of a second referendum on Brexit, saying that those who voted to remain in the European Union (EU) should not suffer the “tyranny of the majority”. Major made the remarks on Friday, saying there is a “perfectly credible” case for a second referendum on leaving the 28-member bloc and that those who cast a Remain vote in the June referendum should have their say in debates over the terms of departing from the EU. " I hear the argument that the 48 percent of people who voted to stay should have no say in what happens, I find that very difficult to accept, ” the former British premier said. “ The tyranny of the majority has never applied in a democracy and it should not apply in this particular democracy, " he noted.

Every day is black in USA

While in USA people are preparing for “Black Friday”, hundreds of impoverished people queue overnight for free medical care. In the United States there is very little government provision of dental or vision care and limited healthcare, unless you can afford to pay for it. As a result, people are forced to turn to a charity for help. In this ITV’s video hundred of people are queuing in Virginia for free medical, dental or eye-care, thanks to Remote Area Medical: https://www.facebook.com/itvnews/videos/10154273934137672/ http://info-war.gr/en/every-day-is-black-in-usa/

Κάθε μέρα είναι «μαύρη» στις ΗΠΑ

Καθώς στις ΗΠΑ ετοιμάζονται για τη Μαύρη Παρασκευή, εκατοντάδες άποροι κάνουν ουρές από το βράδυ για δωρεάν ιατρικές εξετάσεις. Οι άνθρωποι αυτοί έχουν ελάχιστη ή καθόλου πρόσβαση σε στοιχειώδη ιατροφαρμακευτική περίθαλψη, αφού στις ΗΠΑ απαιτούνται αστρονομικά ποσά για την ιατρική ασφάλιση. Έτσι, οι φτωχότεροι αναγκάζονται να στραφούν σε δράσεις μη κερδοσκοπικών οργανώσεων, για να καλύψουν τις βασικότερες ανάγκες τους. Είναι «ανέγγιχτοι» των ΗΠΑ. Το video του ITV παρουσιάζει την ολονύκτια αναμονή των ανθρώπων αυτών για οδοντιατρικές ή οφθαλμολογικές εξετάσεις, σε μία δράση της Μ.Κ.Ο.

Turkish warplanes launch airstrikes on Syrian city of al-Bab

Turkish warplanes have carried out a series of airstrikes on the Syrian city of al-Bab in yet another blatant act of aggression against the sovereignty of the Arab state. According to the Turkish military, the airstrikes were conducted against targets in the city of al-Bab, located some 40 kilometers northeast of Aleppo, shortly before 8 a.m. (0500 GMT) on Friday. The military claimed the attacks targeted Daesh. The strikes are part of an ongoing incursion by Turkish military inside northern Syria. On August 24, Turkish special forces, tanks and jets backed by warplanes from the US-led coalition launched their first coordinated offensive in Syria. On the same day, Damascus strongly denounced the intervention as a breach of its sovereignty. Senior officials in Damascus have said that any side willing to fight terrorism on the Syrian territory should cooperate with the government and the Syrian army.

Bad move Jill!

Open letter to Jill Stein Dear Dr. Stein, we know that the whole system is rigged not only in the US, but almost everywhere in the planet. We know that elections can be cooked, but to make a move at this certain point, demanding vote re-counting in three states will look very suspicious. Even if you have the purest intentions, you know very well that the Clintonian internal empire will seek to take advantage of your move, hide behind it and hope for a reversal of the result. What's the point? Bringing Hillary isn't an equal (or maybe worse) nightmare than Donald? You are the one who said that we could slip into nuclear war in the blink of an eye if Hillary Clinton has her way in Syria , after all. Is it worth risking it? Plus, you gave the right to Far-Right conspirators linking you with the Clintonian establishment, pointing how fast you raised so much money for the recount. Again, even if most of the money comes from ordinary people who want fair elections, a

The lobby-occupied hypocrites promote “Democracy” through censorship!

Euro-clowns in full panic It appears that the corrupted establishment of the lobby-occupied Brussels bureaucrats prevails over the EU parliament. Most MEPs decided that there is Russian propaganda against the EU, equalizing it with the propaganda of ISIS! Hypocrisy skyrockets, as everyone knows that the Western propaganda through the corporate media is absolutely certain, most aggressive and uninterrupted for decades. Those media owned by the same lobbyists who have occupied Brussels and DC. From RT : There’s news. There’s fake news. And then there’s “pseudo” news, which according to the European Parliament, encompasses any Russian media which doesn’t adhere to a Western narrative and neglects to present an entirely pro-EU perspective on world events. In a completely bonkers move this week, the EU Parliament approved a resolution to counter “Russian propaganda” and the “intrusion of Russian media” into the EU. T

Η φράξια της εσωτερικής τρόικας σε απόλυτη ευθυγράμμιση με την μαφία του ΔΝΤ

Σε απόλυτη ταύτιση με τη «συνταγή» του ΔΝΤ φαίνεται να οδεύει ο ΣΕΒ, ο οποίος ξαναχτυπά ζητώντας μείωση του αφορολόγητου ορίου. Η νέα παρέμβαση του Συνδέσμου Ελλήνων Βιομηχάνων έρχεται αμέσως μετά την δημόσια τοποθέτησή του υπέρ της ανάγκης υπερίσχυσης των επιχειρηματικών συμβάσεων έναντι των κλαδικών - μια τοποθέτηση, που επίσης κινείται στον ίδια γραμμή με το ΔΝΤ και βρίσκεται κόντρα στην θέση των υπολοίπων κοινωνικών εταίρων και εργοδοτικών ενώσεων. Το αίτημα για μείωση του αφορολόγητου ορίου περιλαμβάνεται στο εβδομαδιαίο δελτίο του ΣΕΒ που δημοσιοποιήθηκε σήμερα και αναφέρει χαρακτηριστικά: « Η αυξανόμενη υπερφορολόγηση της οικονομίας έχει ήδη προσεγγίσει την επικίνδυνη ζώνη. Ένα διογκούμενο κύμα πολιτών και επιχειρήσεων, μπορεί ανά πάσα στιγμή, ιδίως το 2017, να αντιμετωπίσουν αδυναμία εκπλήρωσης των υποχρεώσεών τους, με δυσάρεστες επιπτώσεις για τη σταθερότητα και τη συνοχή της κοινωνίας. Η διάρθρωση της φορολογίας πρέπει να αναθεωρηθεί με το φορολ

NATO is an aggressive organization in search of a mission

Donald Trump has said that NATO is obsolete because it is not really defending its members’ territory against Islamic terrorism, which is the only real threat Europe suffers, Jim Jatras, former US diplomat and geopolitical analyst, told RT. Washington says it is worried about Moscow's deployment of Iskander air defense missiles in Russia's western exclave of Kaliningrad in response to new US cruise missiles being placed just across the border. Tension with Moscow is not the only thing bothering the military alliance. With a new US president soon to enter the White House, Western media is raising concerns over his plans for NATO. The European elites are growing increasingly worried about what any changes Trump may bring to the NATO alliance. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg Stoltenberg urged NATO members to follow the British example and contribute two percent of GDP to the military alliance. Besides the UK, Poland, Estonia, Greece,
