Iran ’ s supreme leader , the Ayatollah Khamenei , warned in a statement that the “ criminals ” responsible for the death of a top Iranian general will face “ severe revenge ” , and that his work fighting on behalf of the Iranian people “ won ’ t be stopped by his martyrdom , ” according to a statement published on Twitter .
The statement was issued in response to Friday morning ’ s “ game changing ” drone strike ( the attack took place late Thursday evening in the US ) that killed Iran ’ s most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Qasem Suleimani , the leader of the IRGC ’ s Quds Force – a powerful regional player responsible for overseeing Iran ’ s proxy war in Yemen , as well as Iran-backed forces in Iraq , Lebanon and elsewhere .
The statement was published in English by an unverified but widely-cited Twitter account , and though Zero Hedge hasn ’ t personally verified whether the statement is genuine , it is being reported as legitimate by many media outlets around the world , including the Washington Post , which cited part of it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Years of sincere , brave efforts fighting against the devils & villainous in the world & yrs of wishing for martyrdom on the path of God finally took the dear Commander of Islam , Soleimani , to this lofty status .
His blood was shed by the most barbaric of men .

& Soleimani ’ s pure soul & condole the Iranian nation on this great martyrdom .
He was an eminent example of a person trained in Islam .
He spent all his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was the reward for his tireless efforts over the years .
His efforts & path won ’ t be stopped by his martyrdom , by God ’ s Power , rather a # SevereRevenge awaits the criminals who have stained their hands with his & the other martyrs ’ blood last night .
Martyr Soleimani is an Intl figure of Resistance & all such people will seek revenge .
All friends – & enemies – know that Jihad of Resistance will continue with more motivation & definite victory awaits the fighters on this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dear General is bitter .
The continuing fight & ultimate victory will be more bitter for the murderers & criminals .
The Iranian nation will honor the memory of the noble Major-General Soleimani & the martyrs with him – particularly the great Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis – & I declare 3 days of mourning across the nation .
I condole & congratulate his family .
In a tweet published shortly after news of the deadly US attack first broke , Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif warned that “ the US bears responsibility for all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He also denounced the strike as an “ act of international terrorism ” by the US , and added that the Quds force is “ THE most effective force fighting Daesh ( ISIS ) , Al Nusrah , Al Qaeda et al ” .

The US Embassy in Baghdad , which was recently the target of a Benghazi-style attack earlier @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Suleimani ’ s killing , warned any American citizens to leave Iraq immediately , and said it was suspending all public consular activities ( or at least any that hadn ’ t already been suspended in the aftermath of this week ’ s attack ) , the Washington Post reports .
Though President Trump hasn ’ t released a statement beyond tweeting a picture of an American flag , Defense Secretary Mark Esper said the Pentagon had taken “ decisive defensive action ” against Soleimani , whom Esper claimed was “ actively @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on American diplomats .
During these tense times , we think it ’ s important to reflect on the fact that the US and Suleimani weren ’ t always enemies , as Barbara Slavin , the director of the Future of Iran Initiative , reminds us .
In the aftermath of 9/11 , the Quds force worked ( indirectly ) with US forces in Afghanistan to overthrow the Taliban .
But the relationship soured after the American invasion of Iraq .
Suleimani has been in control of the Quds force since the late @ @ @ @ @ @ @ To be sure , the general ’ s killing wasn ’ t the first example of President Trump ordering a supposedly “ game-changing ” military strike that could instigate WWIII ( remember , “ experts ” delivered a similar warning after Trump sent 50+ Tomahawk Missiles raining down on Syrian military fixtures back in 2017 , and have repeated it several times since ) , but it was without a doubt the most aggressive provocation of the Trump era , and has destroyed what little hope remained of a diplomatic detente .

Authoritarian and communist mayor of New York City Bill de Blasio got upset that a Domino ’ s pizza chain was selling $ 30 pizzas on New Year ’ s Eve .
However , he got schooled and received an important lesson on the finite and most basic of economic laws : supply and demand .
De Blasio called out the company in a tweet on Wednesday , outraged about its New Year ’ s Eve prices for those celebrating the holiday in Times Square , and encouraging New Yorkers to ditch the corporate franchise for local eateries .
According @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t understand basic economics : But de Blasio ’ s tweet was met with an education from other Twitter users who do understand basic economics .

Joe Biden’s Plan to Fight Antisemitism: Gun Control, Hate Crime Prosecutions & New Domestic Terror Law

Former Vice President Joe Biden told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency on Thursday that he plans to “ fight antisemitism ” by enacting new gun control laws , aggressively prosecuting “ hate crimes ” and passing a “ new federal domestic terrorism law.
” The last federal domestic terrorism law the US passed was the civil liberties destroying so-called “ PATRIOT Act , ” which Joe Biden voted for .
From the Jewish Telegraphic Agency , “ Joe Biden : My plan to fight antisemitism ” : [ BIDEN : ] We have a serious problem with rising tides of white @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , on the political right and left , and around the world .
It ’ s not a new phenomenon , but it is the responsibility of leaders everywhere to work aggressively to combat this poison .
Instead , we have a president who , in clear language and in code , encourages and emboldens it .
After Charlottesville , Donald Trump gave renewed license and safe harbor for hate to white supremacists , Neo-Nazis , and the KKK .
There ’ s a short line from those people marching with tiki torches @ @ @ @ @ @ @ replace us ” to the shooter at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh saying Jews “ were committing genocide to his people.
” We need a comprehensive approach to battling antisemitism that takes seriously both the violence that accompanies it and the hateful and dangerous lies that undergird it .
[ … ] We must also address the extremist , white supremacist violence that has sparked so much bloodshed , especially with Trump fanning the flames of hatred and hollowing out resources we put in place during the Obama-Biden administration to address @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that funding and work to pass a federal domestic terrorism law .
We can craft legislation that respects free speech and civil liberties , while making the same commitment as a nation to root out domestic terrorism as we have to stopping international terrorism .
We must appoint leadership at the U.S. Department of Justice who will prioritize the prosecution of hate crimes — making clear that there is no place for such vitriol in this country .
And we must break the nexus between extremism and gun violence by enacting sensible gun @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ ll make sure assault weapons and high capacity magazines are banned again , and we ’ ll put in place a buy-back program to get as many of these weapons of war as possible off our streets .
Biden went on to praise Israel and insist the country must maintain its identity as a “ Jewish state.
” Biden himself was accused of advancing ethnic stereotypes in a 2013 speech he gave to a Jewish group in honor of Jewish American Heritage Month .
From New York Magazine , MAY 22 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Goes Too Far , Accidentally Thrills Anti-Semites ” : Joe Biden spoke last night in honor of Jewish American Heritage Month .
[ … ] Biden ’ s remarks were not anti-Semitic .
They were very , very philo-Semitic .
The thrust of his largely unscripted monologue is that Jews have contributed enormously to the United States .
That ’ s obviously a standard spiel for praising any ethnic group , but Biden took care to emphasize that Jews have not just contributed their share to the United States , but far more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to America .
No group has had such an outsized influence per capita as all of you standing before you , and all of those who went before me and all of those who went before you … You make up 11 percent of the seats in the United States Congress .
You make up one-third of all Nobel laureates … I think you , as usual , underestimate the impact of Jewish heritage .
I really mean that .
I think you vastly underestimate the impact you ’ ve had on the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The embrace of immigration ” is part of that , as is the involvement of Jews in social justice movements .
“ You can ’ t talk about the civil rights movement in this country without talking about Jewish freedom riders and Jack Greenberg , ” he said , telling a story about seeing a group of Jewish activists at a segregated movie theater in Delaware .
“ You can ’ t talk about the women ’ s movement without talking about Betty Friedan ” … “ I believe what affects the movements @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in America are as much the culture and the arts as anything else , ” he said .
That ’ s why he spoke out on gay marriage “ apparently a little ahead of time.
” “ It wasn ’ t anything we legislatively did .
It was ‘ Will and Grace , ’ it was the social media .
Literally .
That ’ s what changed peoples ’ attitudes .
That ’ s why I was so certain that the vast majority of people would embrace and rapidly embrace ” gay marriage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of all that , I bet you 85 percent of those changes , whether it ’ s in Hollywood or social media are a consequence of Jewish leaders in the industry .
The influence is immense , the influence is immense .
And , I might add , it is all to the good.
” “ Biden ’ s intentions here are obviously as friendly as can be , but the execution is awkward , ” commented NY Mag ’ s Jonathan Chait at the time .
“ The main problem here is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rights , are politically controversial at the moment.

Fox News Guest Calls For Bombing Iran Because ‘ They Invaded U.S. Sovereign Soil ’ In Iraq Thursday morning on Fox and Friends , regime change advocate Jim Hanson pushed for President Trump to start a war with Iran because “ they invaded US sovereign soil ” in Iraq by attacking our embassy in retaliation for US airstrikes in Iraq and Syria .
“ They attacked us , ” [ Security Studies Group president Jim Hanson ] said .
“ I think this question is can we play tit-for-tat or can we actually do something that will show them it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do things like this ?
They attacked us in Iraq , we responded.
” Hanson told viewers — which likely includes President Donald Trump , who watches regularly — that military strikes against Iranian bases in Iraq and Syria were not enough .
“ The problem is , those are proxies , ” said Hanson , who has advised the White House on Qatar policy .
“ Those are Iraqis in Syrians who Iran has conscripted .
Next they took U.S. territory , they invaded the United States ’ sovereign soil .
Now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hit them in a way I think that doesn ’ t turn the Iraqis and Syrians against them and show we mean business ?
I think there are ways to do that.
” The Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations , ratified in 1961 , clearly states that embassies and consulates are not considered sovereign territory of the sending state — but Hanson called anyway for the president to launch attacks on Iranian bases .
“ I think the time has come if they are going to attack the United States , ” he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some of their dangerous toys out of commission , and stop their ability to attack tankers and show them that Iran has skin in the game , and not the Iranian people but the ( Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps ) and their elements that they use for terror attacks.
” While Fox and Friends interviewed Hanson to push for regime change in Iran , on Tucker Carlson ’ s show Monday fill-in Mark Steyn interviewed Col. Doug Macgregor who tried to warn Trump against getting dragged into another neocon war .

Iran, It’s Your Move – Trump’s Takedown Of Iranian General Qassim Suleimani Is Likely To Start A Global War

Iran , It ’ s Your Move – Trump ’ s Takedown Of Iranian General Qassim Suleimani Is Likely To Start A Global War We just witnessed one of the most important deaths in the Middle East in decades .
Just hours ago , President Trump ordered the drone strike on Baghdad International Airport that killed Iranian Major General Qassim Suleimani and several other key officials .
Suleimani was the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Quds Force , but even more importantly he was a huge national hero in Iran .
To describe this killing as “ seismic ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Senator Chris Murphy says that Suleimani was “ the second most powerful person in Iran ” , and elsewhere he is being described as “ the most influential Middle East military official for decades ” .
This is a major victory for President Trump and the U.S. military , but it also makes it much , much less likely that we are going to be able to avoid a full-blown war with Iran .
Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis , the deputy commander of the Popular Mobilization Forces , was also killed in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s death that changes everything .
In the U.S. , our generals are not national celebrities , but in Iran Suleimani was one of the most recognizable faces in the entire country .
In fact , he was so deeply loved that Iranian state television literally interrupted their programming to announce his death… For more than two decades , Suleimani has essentially been running the show for Iran in the Middle East .
If you doubt this , just check out the message that he sent to U.S. General David Petraeus in 2008… @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more powerful both inside and outside of Iran .
He was the one at the top of the food chain giving Iran ’ s proxies their marching orders , and there is no way that the U.S. embassy would have been attacked earlier this week without his direct approval .
So Trump definitely picked a target that was directly responsible for the damage to our embassy , but what happens next ?
Ultimately , that is going to be up to Iran .
The Iranians could put their tails between their legs and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ happened , but that probably isn ’ t likely .
It would be difficult to put into words the extreme rage that the Iranians are feeling right now .
Their deeply hated enemy , the United States , has just killed a greatly beloved national hero .
They are going to want revenge , and they are going to want it to be as painful as possible .
Needless to say , there will probably be attacks against U.S. targets in the region , and Defense Secretary Mark Esper has stated that the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ action ” to prevent that from happening… Beyond that , the Iranians may decide that an “ eye for an eye ” approach is justified in this case .
In other words , now that we have killed one of their key leaders , they may decide to kill one or more of our key leaders .
As I have previously detailed , Hezbollah is the strongest and most well funded terror organization on the entire planet .
They have a very strong presence in North America , and they certainly have the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ U.S. soil .
If I was a prominent military official , a member of Congress or a top politician , I would be carefully “ watching my six ” in the coming days .
Some members of Congress are already realizing the implications of what just happened .
For example , here is what U.S .
Senator Cory Gardner just said… And U.S .
Senator Richard Blumenthal has told the press that the killing of Qassim Suleimani could lead us directly into a full-blown war with Iran… In 1914 , the assassination of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ started World War 1 .
Could it be possible that we just witnessed the spark that will start World War 3 ?
Only time will tell , but at this moment more U.S. troops are being deployed to the Middle East… These are the days of “ the perfect storm ” , and many are anticipating that 2020 will be the most tumultuous year in modern history .
By killing Suleimani , Trump has essentially “ crossed the Rubicon ” , and there will be no going back .
So now it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ move .
They can roll over and give up now that Suleimani is dead , or they can choose to escalate matters even further and push the entire region to the brink of war .

prisonplanet--2020-01-03--China Just Escalated Their Brutal Persecution Of Christians To An Entirely New Level

China Just Escalated Their Brutal Persecution Of Christians To An Entirely New Level Be very thankful that you don ’ t live in China .
Approximately one out of every seven people on the entire planet lives in China , and it has become one of the most dystopian societies that the world has ever seen .
Surveillance cameras , government spies and facial recognition scanners are everywhere , and the totalitarian “ social credit score ” system that is currently being rolled out is an absolute nightmare .
And the Chinese government is not content to simply control how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ literally control what people believe , and the ongoing crackdown on the Christian faith has been absolutely brutal .
Over the past several years , scores of pastors have been arrested , countless underground churches have been shut down , and thousands of Bibles have been burned .
Unfortunately , that wasn ’ t enough for Chinese officials , and so they have now taken things to an entirely new level .
When the communists first came to power in China , it was a very dark time for Christians .
But underground @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the persecution , and eventually there were a few decades where the national government more or less tolerated unsanctioned gatherings .
Today , it has been estimated that there are more than 100 million Christians in China , and it is being projected that China may actually have more Christians that any other nation on the planet by the year 2030 .
Needless to say , the communists don ’ t like any threats to their power , and they see this underground movement as a very serious threat .
Under the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the persecution of unofficial churches has steadily escalated .
This year they actually tried to ban Christians from gathering on Christmas , and a series of new regulations has just been introduced that requires “ total submission to the Chinese Communist Party at all times ” … So what does that sort of “ submission ” look like ?
Well , in some cases officials have required churches to take down pictures of Jesus and replace them with pictures of President Xi Jinping .
Yes , this is how twisted things have become @ @ @ @ @ @ @ require all churches to “ spread the principles and policies of the Chinese Communist Party ” in all of their activities… Any church that does not go along is likely to be raided and shut down at any time .
For example , Pastor Wang Yi once led one of the most important underground churches in all of China , but his church was raided and he was arrested .
And now we have learned that he has just been sentenced to nine years in prison… According to Chinese officials , Pastor Yi @ @ @ @ @ @ @ subverting state power ” .
Of course it isn ’ t just pastors that are being arrested .
Countless numbers of ordinary Chinese citizens have been swept up during the raids , and many are never seen or heard from again .
One Chinese Christian woman told the Los Angeles Times what happened to her when she was interrogated… The way that the Chinese are treating their citizens is absolutely reprehensible , and unless they completely change course we should not be conducting any trade with them at all .
Sadly , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 2018 to indoctrinate churches all over China is not even halfway done… The persecution of Christians is likely to get even worse in China , and this comes at a time when Christian persecution is on the rise all over the world .
This is something that many of us have been anticipating because of the times in which we live , but it is still horrifying to actually watch it happen .
As I close this article , I would like to share a message from Pastor Wang Yi that was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
May his words inspire all of us to live every moment and to be the people that we were created to be… “ I hope God uses me , by means of first losing my personal freedom , to tell those who have deprived me of my personal freedom that there is an authority higher than their authority , and that there is a freedom that they can not restrain , a freedom that fills the church of the crucified and risen Jesus Christ.
” “ Regardless of what crime the government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fling at me , as long as this charge is related to my faith , my writings , my comments , and my teachings , it is merely a lie and temptation of demons .
I categorically deny it .
I will serve my sentence , but I will not serve the law .
I will be executed , but I will not plead guilty.
” “ Those who lock me up will one day be locked up by angels .
Those who interrogate me will finally be questioned and judged by Christ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Lord fills me with a natural compassion and grief toward those who are attempting to and actively imprisoning me .
Pray that the Lord would use me , that he would grant me patience and wisdom , that I might take the gospel to them.
” “ Separate me from my wife and children , ruin my reputation , destroy my life and my family – the authorities are capable of doing all of these things .
However , no one in this world can force me to renounce my faith ; @ @ @ @ @ @ @ life ; and no one can raise me from the dead.
” “ Jesus is the Christ , son of the eternal , living God .
He died for sinners and rose to life for us .
He is my king and the king of the whole earth yesterday , today , and forever .
I am his servant , and I am imprisoned because of this .
I will resist in meekness those who resist God , and I will joyfully violate all laws that violate God ’ s laws.

Yesterday , Hadi al-Amiri , head of the Badr Org & Falih Alfayyadh , chairman of the Pop Mobilization Units ( the Iraqi umbrella org that nominally controls the Iranian-backed militias ) helped fuel the assault on our embassy .
But in 2011 , they helped Obama fuel his big Iran fantasy .
pic.twitter.com/tLOVicCn6b Hadi al-Amiri and Faleh al-Fayyed both were outside the embassy and both visited the White House to meet with Obama .
The leader of an Iran-backed US embassy siege in Baghdad was welcomed to the White House by Barack Obama eight years ago before becoming Tehran @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Iraq .
Hadi al-Amiri was Iraq ’ s minister of transport under then-Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and stood in the Oval Office as part of Maliki ’ s delegation on a visit to the White House in December 2011 .
On Tuesday , al-Amiri was among those leading the charge against the US embassy in Baghdad when it was stormed and set alight by pro-Iran militants .
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo shared a photograph of Amiri amid the rioters , condemning him as an ‘ Iranian proxy , ’ and calling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The head of a leading pro-Iran Shia faction , Amiri exerts great power within Iraq ’ s state-sanctioned Popular Mobilization Forces ( PMF ) and was highlighted by Pompeo among three other men as the ringleaders of the siege .
The ease with which Amiri and these other commanders breezed through the heavily fortified ‘ Green Zone ’ has alarmed US officials , who have noted their militia ’ s increased presence around diplomatic buildings in recent weeks .
A former guerrilla fighter who fought for Tehran in the Iran-Iraq War , Amiri @ @ @ @ @ @ @ US , of helping Iran to ship arms to Bashar al-Assad in Syria and has been pictured bowing before the Islamic Republic ’ s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei .
As Commander of the Badr Corps , an Iranian vassal within the PMF , Amiri ’ s men helped the US in their fight against ISIS in 2014 and 2015 .
But a recent spate of missile attacks by the Kataeb Hezbollah branch of the PMF , climaxing last Friday with the death of an American contractor at US base north of Baghdad @ @ @ @ @ @ @ friends in the region can soon become enemies .

Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller , the Vatican ’ s former doctrinal czar , warned against Catholics who long for a “ meta-religion ” of world unity in a January 1 homily in Phoenix .
Some Catholics want the Church to modernize , abandoning its doctrines for the sake of building a “ new religion of world unity , ” Müller warned thousands of Catholics gathered in Phoenix for the 2020 Student Leadership Summit hosted by the Fellowship of Catholic University Students ( FOCUS ) .
“ In order to be admitted to this meta-religion , the only price the Church @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her truth claim , ” the cardinal told the students .
“ No big deal , it seems , as the relativism dominant in our world anyway rejects the idea that we could actually know the truth and presents itself as guarantor of peace between all world views and world religions.
” The post-Christian world welcomes these efforts to remake the Church “ as a convenient civil religion , ” Müller said .
The German cardinal tied his remarks to claims by the late Jesuit cardinal Carlo Maria Martini that the Church was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and needed to modernize in order to catch up .
“ For some , the Catholic Church is lagging behind by 200 years compared to where the world is today .
Is there any truth to this accusation ?
” Müller asked the group .
It is surely no coincidence that Pope Francis had cited this same quotation in a positive sense just days before Christmas in an address to the Roman Curia , calling for “ epochal change ” while insisting that resistance to change always hides some mental disorder .

Joe Biden Urges Voters to Make 2020 the Year for Gun Control Democrat presidential hopeful Joe Biden launched into the New Year by urging voters to make 2020 the year for gun control .
Biden did this while re-tweeting an Associated Press story which showed an elevated number of mass killings in the U.S. in 2019 .
Ironically , the list was not simply about firearm-related killings , it included killings carried out with axes , knives , and other weapons too .
Moreover , the AP story showed California–the state with more gun control than any other–also had the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ state in 2019 .
But Biden re-tweeted the story anyway , and used it to call for gun control : On December 29 , 2019 , armed congregants at West Freeway Church of Christ , White Settlement , Texas , responded to an armed attacker .
One congregant shot and killed the perpetrator just seconds after the attack began .
Just months earlier , Biden had criticized Texas ’ law allowing concealed carriers to be armed in church for self-defense .
He described the law as “ absolutely irrational.

Former Google Exec Explains Why He Left: ‘Don’t Be Evil’ Mantra Became Just Another ‘Corporate Marketing Tool’

Former Google Exec Explains Why He Left : ‘ Don ’ t Be Evil ’ Mantra Became Just Another ‘ Corporate Marketing Tool ’ A former Google executive said Thursday he resigned because the company abandoned its promise not to be “ evil ” and instead became a corporate behemoth pursuing profits over the public good .
Google is kowtowing to China and placing money over customer ’ s privacy concerns , according to Ross Lajeunesse , Google ’ s former head of international relations in Asia .
He said the company changed dramatically during his tenure , to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ To me , no additional evidence was needed that ‘ Don ’ t be evil ’ was no longer a true reflection of the company ’ s values ; it was now nothing more than just another corporate marketing tool , ” Lajeunesse wrote in a Medium post after listing several ways in which Google sold out to profits .
Lajeunesse cited Google ’ s move in 2017 to create a new censored version of Search for China as one of the reasons for his departure .
The tech giant initially forged @ @ @ @ @ @ @ off relations in 2010 due to concerns related to Chinese censorship , he noted .
Google abandoned the 2017 Search version , codenamed Dragonfly , in 2018 after employees complained that the plan was not being publicly disclosed .
CEO Sundar Pichai reportedly placed Dragonfly high on his list of priorities before the internal outcry .
Google is not the only giant corporation doing business in China .
Tesla and General Motors , for instance , are among 200 companies transmitting position information and other data to government-backed monitoring centers in China .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ knowledge .
Tesla in particular has done its level best to make inroads in the country .
The electric vehicle maker sells cars in China but under restrictions .
Every vehicle is slapped with a 25 percent import tax , dramatically increasing the car ’ s price .
But Google was supposed to be above the fray , Lajeunesse believed .
Lajeunesse claimed executives frequently torpedoed his advice to adopt a company-wide program committing Google to human rights principles found in the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights .
He said the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to “ chase bigger profits and an even higher stock price.
” At one all-hands meeting , “ the entire policy team was separated into various rooms and told to participate in a ‘ diversity exercise ’ that placed me in a group labeled ‘ homos , ’ ” he wrote , adding that his colleagues were “ forced to join groups called ‘ Asians ’ and ‘ Brown people.
” Lajeunesse , now a Democratic Senate candidate in Maine , also addressed Google ’ s insatiable appetite for data , asking : @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of us when that once-great American company controls so much data about billions of users across the globe ?
” Google reportedly partnered with the second-largest health care system in the U.S. to create software using artificial intelligence ( AI ) to analyze patient information and give people recommendations to improve their health as part of a not-so-secret project titled “ Project Nightingale.

prisonplanet--2020-01-03--Return Of Rocket Man? Kim Says “Shocking Action” Coming – Will Unveil New Weapon

Return Of Rocket Man ?
Kim Says “ Shocking Action ” Coming – Will Unveil New Weapon It ’ s a new year , and with no breakthrough moment in US-North Korea nuclear talks by end of 2019 , Kim is once again on the offensive .
His first act of 2020 was to declare on Wednesday that his country is no longer bound by his prior good faith pledge to President Trump to halt major missile tests .
Toward this end , he threateningly announced Pyongyang will soon unveil to the world “ new strategic weapon ” .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ weapon to be possessed by the DPRK in the near future , ” Kim said , while addressing a four-day long ruling party meeting .
Further alarming is that he urged before party bosses “ shocking actual action ” to make the US “ pay for the pains ” endured by his country under crippling Washington sanctions .
Trump , for his part , didn ’ t appear to give too much credence to the threat after the prior ominous “ Christmas gift ” never materialized .
“ We ’ re going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s a man of his word , ” the president told reporters in Florida .
Suggesting there ’ s still space for compromise and dialogue , Bloomberg observes what was crucially missing from Kim ’ s talking points : In response to the KCNA media report detailing the provocative speech , Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Fox News “ We hope that Chairman Kim will take a different course.
” The US top diplomat added , “ We are hopeful that Chairman Kim will make the right decision and he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and war.
” Indeed a major weapons or long-range test would indeed take the Korean peninsula a big step closer to war — the worst case scenario that both sides are still calculating their rhetoric to avoid .

prisonplanet--2020-01-03--Helicopter Money Is Here: How The Fed Monetized Billions In Debt Sold Just Days Earlier

Helicopter Money Is Here : How The Fed Monetized Billions In Debt Sold Just Days Earlier The Fed ’ s charter prohibits it from directly purchasing bonds or bills issued by the US Treasury : that process is also known as monetization and various Fed chairs have repeatedly testified under oath to Congress that the Fed does not do it .
Of course , the alternative is what is known as “ Helicopter Money ” , when the central bank directly purchases bonds issued by the Treasury and forms the backbone of the MMT monetary cult .
But what if @ @ @ @ @ @ @ between Treasury issuance and subsequent purchase ?
Well , that ’ s perfectly legal , and it ’ s something the Fed has done not only during QE1 , QE2 and QE3 , but is continuing to do now as part of its “ QE4/NOT QE.
” On December 16 , the US Treasury sold $ 36 billion in T-Bills with a 182-day term , maturing on June 18 , 2020 , with CUSIP SV2 .
And , as shown in the Treasury Direct snapshot below , of the total $ 34.3 billion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 23.7 billion .
For the answer we go to the Fed ’ s POMO page , which shows which specific T-Bill CUSIPs were purchased by its markets desk on any given POMO day when Dealers sell up to $ 7.5 billion in Bills to the Fed .
Exhibit 1 : on December 19 , just three days after the above T-Bill was issued and on the very day the issue settled ( Dec 19 ) , Dealers flipped the same Bills they bought from the Treasury back to the Fed for an unknown @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 7.5BN in total POMO , the SV2 CUSIP which had been issued earlier that week , represented the biggest bond “ put ” to the Fed , amounting to $ 3.9 billion , more than half of the total POMO on that day , and by far the most of any CUSIP sold to the NY Fed ’ s markets desk on that day .
Exhibit 2 : during the next POMO conducted the very next day , or December 20 , and just four days after the issuance of T-Bill SV2 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ billion in Dealer purchase , those same Dealers flipped more of the same Bills they “ bought ” from the Treasury back to the Fed .
Why ?
To once again pocket the unspecific markup the Fed generously provided to them just because they are Dealers .
Of the $ 7.5BN in total POMO held on Dec 20 , the SV2 CUSIP once again represented the single biggest bond “ put ” to the Fed , amounting to $ 1.6 billion , the most of any CUSIP sold to the NY Fed ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ So what is going on ?
Well , for all those saying the US may soon unleash helicopter money , and/or MMT , we have some ‘ news ’ : helicopter money is already here , and the Fed is now actively monetizing debt the Treasury sold just days earlier using Dealers as a conduit… a “ conduit ” which is generously rewarded by the Fed ’ s market desk with its marked up purchase price .
In other words , the Fed is already conducting Helicopter Money ( and MMT ) in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the Fed monetized T-Bills that were issued just three days earlier – and just because it is circumventing the one hurdle that prevents it from directly purchasing securities sold outright by the Treasury , the Fed is providing the Dealers that made this legal debt circle-jerk possible with millions in profits , even as the outcome is identical if merely offset by a few days .
Perhaps during Fed Chair Powell ’ s next Congressional hearings , someone actually has the guts to ask the only question that matters : why is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and pretending it isn ’ t doing so just because it grants Dealers a 3-day “ holding ” period , for which it then rewards them generously ?

Protests After German State Broadcaster Features Children Singing About Their Grandmas Being “Environmental Pigs” For Eating Meat

Protests After German State Broadcaster Features Children Singing About Their Grandmas Being “ Environmental Pigs ” For Eating Meat WDR2 accused of using climate change hysteria to indoctrinate kids to hate their family .
German state broadcaster WDR2 faced protests after it broadcast a video in which a group of children were taught to sing about how their grandmas were “ environmental pigs ” for driving non-electric vehicles and eating meat .
The controversy began after WDR2 aired the clip in which the kids sing , “ My grandma drives in the chicken coop with her motorcycle…that ’ s thousands @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my grandma is an old environmental pig !
” In another part of the song the children sing , “ Every day my grandma fries herself a pork chop…she does it because discount meat costs nearly nothing , my grandma is an old environmental pig !
” An almost immediate backlash prompted WDR2 to delete the online version of the clip before angry grandmas descended on WDR ’ s offices in Cologne to protest against the broadcaster .
“ We are grandmas .
Not # Nazi Pigs !
” read one of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , “ My grandma is an old environmental pig .
WDR exploits children to slander the elderly .

“ Well .

Violent Islamists stormed the US embassy in Iraq and were labelled ‘ protesters ’ and ‘ mourners ’ by the US media The leftist media in the US started off 2020 with a cacophony of fake news Wednesday by labeling Hezbollah terrorists who attempted to storm the US embassy in Baghdad as ‘ protesters ’ .

Early reports detailed that the violent horde was being led by Iranian @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : The assault on the embassy was a response to US airstrikes targeting Iran-backed militants in Iraq and Syria who killed a U.S. military contractor last week .
The violent Islamist terrorists chanted “ No , no to America , no , no to Israel , ” while storming the building and setting it on fire .
This is all clear as day , yet take a look at The Washington Post ’ s front page Wednesday : Others noticed the mis-spelling of ‘ terrorists ’ or ‘ militiamen ’ : Some noted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as CNN , which had earlier called the mob ‘ Iraqi mourners ’ : The New York Times also got in on the ‘ mourners ’ debacle : The Times later repeated the ‘ protesters ’ description : In reality , protests have been going on for months against Iran ’ s influence in Iraq .

The pro-Iranian militia have even been killing those protesters .

Former Vice President Joe Biden has returned to the hoax with which he launched his presidential campaign last April , falsely suggesting President Donald Trump called white supremacists in Charlottesville “ very fine people.
” In an ad launched on Twitter Wednesday evening ( see below ) , Biden claims that Trump referred to torch-waving white supremacists and neo-Nazis as “ very fine people , ” calling the president “ poison to our [ national ] soul.
” Last year , Biden announced his run for the presidency in a YouTube video in which he claimed to be motivated by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2017 riots in Charlottesville .
Biden said : And that ’ s when we heard the words of the President of the United States that stunned the world and shocked the conscience of this nation .
He said there were , quote , some “ very fine people on both sides.
” Very fine people on both sides ?
With those words , the president of the United States assigned a moral equivalence between those spreading hate , and those with the courage to stand against it .
And in that moment , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nation was unlike any I had every seen in my lifetime .
Biden ’ s claim was untrue .
Trump condemned the violence in Charlottesville immediately , including violence by left-wing activists .
He also delivered a special televised statement from the White House in which he singled out racists including the “ KKK , neo-Nazis , white supremacists , and other hate groups.
” And at a press conference in Trump Tower , he specifically attacked the neo-Nazis and white supremacists , saying they should be “ condemned totally.

The Daily Beast posted an article that all but fantasized about Iran launching a terror attack on the President ’ s “ beloved ” Trump Tower .

prisonplanet--2020-01-08--Cover-Up: Iran Refuses to Hand Over Black Box Data of Plane That Crashed Over Tehran

Cover-Up : Iran Refuses to Hand Over Black Box Data of Plane That Crashed Over Tehran Speculation builds it was shot down by Iranian missile .
Iran is refusing to hand over black box data from the Boeing 737 that crashed over Tehran , as speculation builds that the aircraft was shot down by an Iranian missile .
The Ukraine International Airlines jet went down early Wednesday , killing all 167 passengers and nine crew .
The majority of passengers were from Iran and Canada .
The crash occurred just hours after Iran attacked two U.S. air bases in Iraq @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Boeing 737-800 was was of their best planes in the fleet , was “ in excellent condition ” and had undergone scheduled maintenance just two days before the crash .
The pilots and flight crew were also described as highly experienced and competent , with UIA flight director Ihor Sosnovsky asserting , “ Given their experience , it is very hard to say that something was wrong with them.
” Al Hadath Dubai News reported that the plane had been brought down by a missile , tweeting , “ The speed data of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it exploded , ” and “ Preliminary images of the Ukrainian plane suspected of being hit by an Iranian missile.
” Now Iran is refusing to hand over vital black box data from the aircraft , suggesting they are trying to control the investigation .
“ Iran says it will not hand black box of crashed plane over to Boeing , ” reports the Spectator Index .
“ The possibility of a terrorist attack or a rocket attack can currently be ruled out , ” said the Ukrainian Embassy in Tehran , reversing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ went down as a result of “ engine failure.
” Speculation that the plane was downed by an Iranian missile is rampant .
Images appear to show shrapnel damage on wings & fuselage of the aircraft .
Twitter users pointed out that the Iranian Malard missile launch is directly on the flight path of the plane .
“ An engine failure/fire wouldn ’ t allow this plane to continue climbing at 2800 ’ /minute at 318 mph , ” asserted another user .
“ Airliners don ’ t go down every day .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ airliner would erupt into flames in the sky 4 hours after Iran lobbed a dozen ballistic missiles at Iraq ?
” asked one commentator .
If it turns out that Iran accidentally shot down a passenger plane primarily full of its own citizens , that will not only represent a tragic catastrophe , but an utter embarrassment .

Facebook To Ban ‘ Deepfakes ’ And Other Misleading Videos Facebook announced in a Monday blog post that deepfakes – computer generated imitations of people – will no longer be allowed on the platform , along with footage which has been otherwise edited in ways that aren ’ t obvious to the average person .
Manipulations can be made through simple technology like Photoshop or through sophisticated tools that use artificial intelligence or “ deep learning ” techniques to create videos that distort reality – usually called “ deepfakes.
” While these videos are still rare on the internet , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ industry and society as their use increases .
-Facebook “ There are people who engage in media manipulation in order to mislead , ” writes VP of global policy management , Monika Bickert .
Going forward , the company will remove ‘ misleading and manipulated media ’ if it meets the following criteria : • It has been edited or synthesized – beyond adjustments for clarity or quality – in ways that aren ’ t apparent to an average person and would likely mislead someone into thinking that a subject of the video @ @ @ @ @ @ @ say .
And : • It is the product of artificial intelligence or machine learning that merges , replaces or superimposes content onto a video , making it appear to be authentic .
The company says the policy does not apply to parody or satire , or a video which has been “ edited solely to omit or change the order of words.
” But the policy — first reported by The Washington Post , and confirmed by Facebook late Monday — does not prohibit all doctored videos .
The tech giant ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ address a deceptively edited clip of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that went viral on the social network last year , prompting criticism from Democratic leaders and digital experts .
“ While these videos are still rare on the internet , they present a significant challenge for our industry and society as their use increases , ” Monika Bickert , the company ’ s vice president for global policy management , wrote in a blog post .
–Washington Post According to the BBC , Facebook announced last September that it would allocate $ 10 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mark Zuckerberg , Facebook ’ s chief executive , has himself featured in a deepfake video .
The clip featured a computer-generated version of Zuckerberg crediting a secretive organisation for the success of the social network .

“ The fact the video is fake and intended to be misleading is the key thing for me , ” he said .
“ Whether @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sophisticated techniques isn ’ t relevant.
” Other companies like Google and Microsoft are also trying to combat deepfakes .
–BBC Facebook will work with academia , government and businesses to combat deepfakes , according to the report .

Car production in Germany has tumbled to its lowest levels in 23 years , according to Bloomberg .
Names like Volkswagen , BMW and Daimler produced 4.66 million cars in German factories last year , which is the weakest number since 1996 .
The 9 % decrease was blamed on waning demand from international markets and estimates are for deliveries to drop to 78.9 million vehicles this year , from 80.1 million in 2019 .
Pollution concerns led by Volkswagen ’ s 2015 diesel-cheating scandal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ global manufacturing powerhouse .
Combined with the global auto recession , trade conflicts and slowing economies , it ’ s a recipe for falling output .
Germany has been more susceptible to emission regulations due to the country ’ s propensity for making high performance vehicles .
Brands like BMW , Porsche and Audi have made their names focusing on power and performance .
Meanwhile the industry is focused on investing in cleaner vehicles and self-driving features .
The market has been rewarding these companies , with ride-sharing company Uber posting a market @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has been leading the industry to “ explore unusual projects ” , according to Bloomberg : The country ’ s domestic autos market grew 5 % last year after buyers registered 3.6 million new cars , the most since 2009 .

prisonplanet--2020-01-08--Lie America Into War And Get Rich Doing It

Lie America Into War And Get Rich Doing It Bloomberg News is reporting that National Security Council official Richard Goldberg , who was “ central ” to the Trump administration ’ s “ hawkish Iran policies , ” was receiving a salary from a Sheldon Adelson-funded pro-Israel think tank throughout his time at the White House .
From Bloomberg , Jan 3 , “ U.S .
Official Central to Hawkish Iran Policies Departs NSC ” : Richard Goldberg , the U.S. National Security Council official who clashed with other members of the administration over his push for a more hawkish @ @ @ @ @ @ @ job after one year for personal reasons , a person familiar with the matter said .
[ … ] Former National Security Adviser John Bolton created Goldberg ’ s job — director for countering Iran ’ s weapons of mass destruction — explicitly for him .
The goal was to counter what Bolton saw as a desire at the departments of State and Treasury to weaken the “ maximum pressure ” campaign against Iran .
Tension over that issue flared in March as the administration mulled whether to extend waivers allowing Iran to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The waivers were eventually ended in May .
That fight was only one of the administration ’ s internecine battles related to Iran and underscored the influence wielded by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies , the think tank where Goldberg previously worked , in pushing for a tougher line against Iran .
Goldberg will return to FDD , which continued to pay his salary during his time on the National Security Council .
Here ’ s a video of Goldberg ( with a total 91 views despite being up since Feb 2019 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : From Wikipedia ’ s entry on the Foundation for Defense of Democracies : In 2011 , ThinkProgress , a progressive advocacy organization , published FDD ’ s Form 990 documents that revealed where FDD funding came from , from 2001 to 2004 .
Donors included : Roland Arnall : $ 1,802,000 Edgar M. and Charles Bronfman : $ 1,050,000 Michael Steinhardt : $ 850,000 Abramson Family Foundation ( of Leonard Abramson ) : $ 822,523 Bernard Marcus : $ 600,000 Lewis Ranieri : $ 350,000 Paul Singer and Sheldon Adelson are also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Most of the major donors are active philanthropists to ‘ pro-Israel ’ causes both in the U.S. and internationally .
With the disclosure of its donor rolls , it becomes increasingly apparent that FDD ’ s advocacy of U.S. military intervention in the Middle East , its hawkish stance against Iran , and its defense of right-wing Israeli policy is consistent with its donors ’ interests in ‘ pro-Israel ’ advocacy ” .
Adelson , Singer and Marcus are all top donors to the GOP and Trump despite largely snubbing him during the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who compared Trump to Dylann Roof during the election , has also got on the Trump train and is pushing for regime change in Iran .
She was just recently rewarded with a position on Boeing ’ s board of directors .
Presumably , Haley will be helping them in their super-successful quest to outsource all our jobs to India .
It ’ s worth noting that President Kushner is pushing for Haley to replace Mike Pence as Trump ’ s VP for 2020 .
In November , Haley received the Theodor Herzl @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lauder .
The New York Times reported Sunday that Trump called Lauder up in late December to “ yell ” at him to “ support ” him with campaign cash because he has “ done more for Jews than any other president ” and “ could still lose the Jewish vote ” : On Sunday , Dec. 29 , hours after a stabbing at the home of a rabbi in Monsey , N.Y. , Mr. Trump , from his golf club in West Palm Beach , called one of his oldest acquaintances and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ronald S. Lauder , to yell that Mr. Lauder should be doing more to “ support ” him , according to three people briefed on the call .
Mr. Lauder , the president of the World Jewish Congress who recently started a new $ 25 million effort to fight anti-Semitism that employs a pollster working for Mr. Bloomberg , listened as Mr. Trump ticked off a litany of administration actions .
Mr. Trump said that he had done more for Jews than any other president and that he could still lose the Jewish @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contributions , but advisers and others briefed on the call said he left the clear impression that was referring to financial support .
In a statement , Mr. Lauder would say only that he has had “ many candid , positive and forward-looking conversations with ” Mr. Trump , who “ deserves a great deal of support from the Jewish community for his fantastic record on Israel and his proven support of the Jewish people here at home.
” In related news , The Washington Post ran a propaganda piece from Stephen Hadley @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doors to diplomacy ” without disclosing that he ’ s a director at the defense contractor Raytheon who makes $ 305,000 a year .
As Tucker Carlson said last night , many of our ruling class are getting “ rich and powerful ” lobbying for this war and are headed for a windfall .
Meanwhile , many boomer dupes high on propaganda from neocon shills like Ben Shapiro and Sean Hannity think this war is being done to help America .

prisonplanet--2020-01-08--Iran Warns That Israel Will Be Bombed If Trump Responds To The Missile Attack On U.S. Bases In Iraq

Iran Warns That Israel Will Be Bombed If Trump Responds To The Missile Attack On U.S .
Bases In Iraq We are at one of the most critical turning points in modern world history , and whether or not we will be able to avoid World War 3 will come down to a handful of key decisions that Donald Trump will make over the next few days .
If he makes the wrong decisions , he will be second guessed for generations to come .
But if he makes the right decisions , he could literally change the course of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ entire globe was shocked when Iran fired more than a dozen ballistic missiles at U.S. bases in Iraq a few hours ago .
But the initial reports indicate that there were no U.S. casualties , and the Iranians are telling us that there will be no further attacks as long as the U.S. does not retaliate .
So this gives Trump the opportunity to de-escalate the conflict and still save face .
Since we were able to take out Qassem Soleimani without losing a single American life , Trump can simply claim victory @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be an enormous amount of pressure on Trump to respond militarily to this attack , and if that happens the Iranians are already promising to escalate the conflict to an entirely new level .
In particular , the Iranians have repeatedly warned that they will bomb Israel if there is U.S. retaliation .
And if Iran attacks Israel , the Israelis will likely respond with overwhelming force , and once that happens nobody is going to be able to stop a major war from happening .
This could literally be our last chance @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hopefully President Trump is getting some really good advice from the people around him .
Because I believe that the Iranian threats are very real .
Shortly after launching missiles at U.S. bases in Iraq , the Iranians threatened “ to bomb Israel and Dubai if the United States retaliates ” … And NBC News Tehran Bureau Chief Ali Arouzi has reported that the Iranians are specifically threatening to destroy the Israeli city of Haifa… Of course this is not the first time that we have heard such threats .
On Sunday , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Council warned that if Trump escalates the conflict , Iran would “ strike Haifa , Tel Aviv and wipe out Israel ” … And then on Monday , the chairman of the Iranian Parliament ’ s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission said that the nation of Israel would be wiped out in “ half an hour ” if the U.S. attacks Iran again… After being stirred up so much by their leaders , hordes of Iranians loudly chanted “ death to Israel ” over and over during the funeral procession of Qassem @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a conflict between the United States and Iran , clearly the Iranians want to make this about Israel as well .
Meanwhile , Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is trying very hard to keep Israel out of the fighting… But the moment the first missile from Iran hits Israel , everything will change .
Israel has been preparing for a war with Iran for a very long time , and the Israelis would likely strike back with such force that it would absolutely stun the entire planet .
And once that happens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to stop a major war from happening .
The storm clouds that have been building on the horizon are now directly over top of us , and if this window of opportunity to avert war is missed we may not get another chance .
So let us hope that President Trump grabs this opportunity and does not choose to escalate the conflict even more .
Unfortunately , all of the war hawks in Washington will be urging him to do just the opposite , and at this point it is difficult to see @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be avoided .
And most Americans actually believe that one is coming .
In fact , a survey that was just released found that 71 percent of all Americans believe that “ the U.S. will be at war with Iran within the next few years ” … But this war won ’ t be anything like our wars in Afghanistan , Iraq and Syria .
It would literally be a worldwide life or death conflict with Iran , their proxies and millions upon millions of Shiite radicals wherever they are located .
They @ @ @ @ @ @ @ everything that they have at us , and they would go after targets on U.S. soil .
We are definitely not prepared for such a war , and so let us hope that it can be averted somehow .
But I have a feeling that there will soon be a U.S. military response to the missile attacks , and then we shall see how serious the Iranians really were about striking Israel .

” Zarif added the U.S. must leave the Middle East and warned that if they don ’ t , a new multi-generational war could erupt .
The leader of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps ( IRGC ) , Major General Hossein Salami , told tens of thousands on Tuesday for the burial of Soleimani in the city of Kerman that Iran @ @ @ @ @ @ @ places Americans hold dear ” over the killing of the former commander .
Thousands chanted “ revenge , revenge , ” as the IRGC leader declared “ we will take revenge .
The revenge will be vigorous and unwavering , woeful , and terminal.
” “ We will surely take revenge , but if America dares takes any action , we will set alight those places Americans hold dear .
They know where those places are.
” Earlier , President Trump outlined 52 Iranian sites that U.S. forces would attack if Iran dares @ @ @ @ @ @ @ await for Iran to pick one or more of the 13 scenarios , on Monday the Pentagon dispatched additional forces to the Middle East , even as conflicting signs emerged about Washington ’ s commitment to remaining in Iraq .
The three-ship Bataan Amphibious Readiness Group was ordered to move to the Persian Gulf region from the Mediterranean , where it has been exercising , according to a U.S. official .
The group , which includes about 2,200 Marines and a helicopter unit , follows the deployment of about 3,500 soldiers from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ late last week .
