Judge Sullivan hears Flynn Case. Flynn’s Lawyer says she met with Trump and discussed Pardon!
by Glenn Kirschner, …for Justice Matters
[ Editor’s Note: This story got swallowed up in the election news, and maybe on purpose for a number of major outlets. Flynn’s attorney, Sidney Powell spent hours trying to convince Judge Sullivan that Flynn had gotten no special treatment via Trump’s ringer at the Justice Department, Attorney General Robert Barr.
When reviewing this a few days later, I discovered I had missed something. Sullivan had let the hearing drag out for five hours, so he could have a bigger court record of Ms. Powell doing triple flips and full turns in the air, as she attempted the impossible, trying to sell Sullivan that Flynn had gotten no special treatment.
Sullivan created a long fact filled case file for an Appeals Court to review. But the fun part came when Powell had to own up to having gone to the White House just a few days before the hearing to brief Trump on how the case was going. When Sullivan popped the question at just the right time, she was stunned, her wheels turning as she contemplated lying and saying no, and then taking her chances at catching a federal charge for giving false testimony. She was smart. After a desperate attempt at claiming executive privilege, which she did not have, not being a member of the administration, she fessed up, even admitting that a pardon had been discussed. Glenn loves to keep pointing out that the Trump team continues to lose its cases, including release of his taxes in New York.

After you have left the military, your focus is likely now on returning to civilian life, catching up with friends and family, and starting a new career. However, you may be surprised to find that you are still under the jurisdiction of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and, if you are charged with a crime, you may be subject to a court martial instead of a civilian trial.
Supreme Court Upholds UCMJ Jurisdiction
Despite being retired from the military, veterans are still considered to legally have a relationship with their respective branches of the military. The basis for this is the subject of both pensions and active vs reserved status. Because veterans can receive pension payments from the military, they are still considered to legally be under the jurisdiction of the military, as well as the UCMJ. This idea is also backed up by the concept of the reserve forces.
Even after retiring from the military, veterans are still considered members on the basis that they are a reserve force that can be re-enlisted in a national emergency or war. While this is extremely rare, the courts have used this argument to state that retired service members can be subject to a court martial under federal law.
This argument has since been upheld by the Supreme Court in the case of retired Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Steven Larrabee. Defendant Larrabee was retired from the Navy while living in Japan when he was charged with sexual assault and the subject of a court martial. After his sentencing, he appealed the court to have his case reviewed under a civilian court, as he argued he was no longer a member of the military.
This appeal did end up reaching the Supreme Court, however, as the court refused to hear the arguments. By rejecting the request to review the case, the court has effectively said that the case should be handled by the UCMJ. Thus, based on this ruling, retired service members can be court martialed and be tried in a military court.
Debate Within Navy Marine-Corp Court of Appeals
While the Supreme Court ruling may seem final, there is still debate within the different departments of the military. Most recently in August 2019, the Navy Marine-Corp Court of Appeals declared that court martials of retired sailors and marines are unconstitutional.
The basis for this argument is that currently retired service members are treated differently under the law. Currently, service members who have left the Navy for between 20-30 years are considered subject to the UCMJ. It is not until after 30 years of retirement that they are transferred to the Regular Retired List and subject to civilian courts.
The court initially argued that this distinction was arbitrary and retired veterans should not have the looming threat of a court martial above their head for decades. However, the court has since backtracked that opinion and opened up a debate on the subject in October 2019. That discussion ultimately led to a full retraction of the court’s opinion, thus upholding the jurisdiction of the UCMJ over veterans and retired members of the Navy.
Standing Up for Veterans
While the debate about court martials and retired service members is still ongoing, both active and retired members of the military do have a right to fair representation in a military court. If you find yourself the subject of a court martial, you should not hesitate to contact a California military defense lawyer.

US President Donald Trump, who has Covid-19, is to be taken to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Friday afternoon in his helicopter as a precautionary measure, the White House said Friday. He have to undergo tests and will remain there for a ‘few days’ on advice of doctors, the White House told reporters.
The president, who tested positive for Covid-19 on Thursday night, has flown to the hospital complex in Bethesda, Maryland – just outside Washington, DC – on Friday afternoon, where a special suite was prepared for him. He left the White House shortly after 6:15 p.m. ET and arrived at the military hospita minutes later after the short helicopter flight on Marine One. Friday, is “doing very well” and does not require any supplemental oxygen, his physician said Friday night.”This evening I am happy to report that the President is doing very well,” White House physician Dr. Sean Conley said in a statement. “He is not requiring any supplemental oxygen, but in consultation with specialists we have elected to initiate Remdesivir therapy.”
Remdesivir is an experimental antiviral therapy. Trump has completed his first dose and was resting comfortably, Conley said in the statement, which was tweeted by White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany.
” Out of an abundance of caution, and at the recommendation of his physician and medical experts, the president will be working from the presidential offices at Walter Reed for the next few days,” White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said in a statement. Doctors urged the move so Trump could get immediate care if needed, according to an unnamed White House official. The surprise announcement comes shortly after his physician, US Navy Commander Sean P. Conley, announced that Trump had been treated with an experimental antibody cocktail and a range of supplements including vitamin D and zinc. Trump “remains fatigued but in good spirits,” Conley said. WUHAN-GATES – 21. “Pandemic Planned for Decades”. Kennedy blames Fauci & Gates. Terrible Plot in 30 Investigations’ summary.

veteranstoday--2020-10-02--NEO – Even Americans are afraid of America

by Gordon Duff , VT Sr. Editor , …with New Eastern Outlook , Moscow , …and the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences , a research institution for the study of the countries and cultures of Asia and North Africa .
[ Editor ’ s Note : Gordon goes on a deep dive today into his personal archives .
You are going to learn a lot more about him , how his value system was formed in the crucible of the post war Detroit suburbs .
There were the poisoned factories that were killing machines for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more workers to be had , like Southerners who were still wearing ‘ rope belts ’ a year after working at a plant .
I doubt that any other geopolitical writers are publishing background on themselves like this .
Another reason he may have done it is we have detractors who conveniently try to frame us as being under some mysterious outside influence , and then some not so mysterious , simply because we publish the ‘ other side ’ s position ’ in several of our major conflicts of the day .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ journalism .
But it appears we are ‘ old school ’ , and to the millennials we are .
I would save this piece to a file so you always have it .
It is a VT classic , and those get targeted every now and then when someone has a budget to spend on hacking assignments .
Some of you baby boomers out there will have your own family stories of these times .
Let us hear a bit about them in the comments if you choose .
After all , we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jim W. Dean ] Jim 's Editor ’ s Notes are solely crowdfunded via PayPal Jim 's work includes research , field trips , Heritage TV Legacy archiving & more .
Thanks for helping .
Click to donate > > What I am writing today I write inspired by the death of my good friend Andre Vltchek .
He pushed all of us , we needed pushing .
Now he is gone .
We find our families where we can .
We shared out stories , this was mine .
I begin .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Second World War or Great Patriotic War as it is called in Russia .
I grew up in Detroit , my father was a factory worker , my mother the daughter of a coal miner in Kentucky .
Both parents grew up in absolute poverty and , to a large extent , so did I .
Being damned with the memory Donald Trump thinks he has ; I remember the 1950s well , but through the lens of politically active parents and a father who loved Russia .
There were reasons he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was always a promise and , to an extent , a “ con.
” It was the pursuit of happiness for some , the privileged few , but for others it was a life of debt and fear .
I watched as working in a factory killed him .
He was 44 when I was born .
This was common .
Many Americans did not start families until late in life , due to the Great Depression and the war .
Many of my friends had fathers who were sick and old during @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over 130 degrees , filled with smoke and carcinogenic solvents .
Worse still , nearly all Americans then smoked cigarettes .
Doctors advised this to “ calm the nerves ” despite decades old research on smoking and cancer , hidden from the public .
In Detroit , it snowed brown .
If you breathed , you coughed up brown , everything was industry , everything was smoke , lead from gasoline , sulfur from cheap coal and adulterated food .
Anything could be in food .
Milk contained chalk , sausage was all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ made from axel grease as leavening .
Pure food laws would come , and then they would be taken away , and the food supply would become even worse , GMO , hormones , anti-biotics and unrecognizable chemicals .
Reagan did most of this .
Thus , we grew food , as much as possible on a 40-foot lot behind a tiny house and , in season , picked fruits and vegetables on local farms .
By the mid-1950s , my father ’ s health had deteriorated , and he began long bouts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us $ 52 a week to live on .
To supplement income , we bought used cars , boats , motors and trailers , and repaired them in our yard .
Every Saturday , we drove to downtown Detroit to buy the newspaper as it was first published and then scanned for “ deals.
” By the time I was 8 , I could tear down a car engine .
This , however , may have been the best time of my life .
Everything possible we bought from local farmers , meat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no longer exist , land long turned into suburbs that today suffer from urban blight themselves .
I remember the elections , Eisenhower twice , guaranteeing 8 years of urban decay and poverty across the nation , where a college education was an impossibility except for a very few .
America was broken , and American workers and their families lived in constant fear .
Farmers were being crushed by banks and large corporations .
Eisenhower ’ s party , the GOP , worked to destroy Social Security and the trade unions , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Adolf Hitler .
This war against the American people would culminate in Reagan and neo-conservatism .
Trade unions would disappear with representative democracy , destroyed through “ gerrymandering ” and voter suppression laws .
America began a spiral into fascism under Reagan , one culminating in the Trump dictatorship .
My mother ’ s family lived in Kentucky .
I remember driving to Hazard , Kentucky in 1955 to visit family .
Some were doing well , the Gabbards owned a few oil wells , a tire store and a small coal mine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ part of his feet from frostbite at Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge in 1944 , owned small farms worked by white sharecroppers .
There were no African Americans in Southeast Kentucky , none whatsoever , not a single one .
To reach the farms , we drove his old military truck through a riverbed .
I remember breakfast , it was 4 AM , piles of food .
I also remember visiting my grandfather , my mother ’ s father .
He was living near the railroad tracks in a shack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the cracks .
He had been a foreman in the mines , but had gotten sick as so many did .
He would be dead soon .
My other grandfather died in 1913 .
He drank himself to death , leaving a wife who only spoke German and 7 children .
My father helped support them by stealing food which sent him to a reformatory early in life .
He was 7 .
Life in Detroit was much like life in a European city , to an extent , at least to us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ industrial workers in Detroit were German , Hungarian , and Polish .
My father spoke German ( and Yiddish ) , Polish and Russian .
This was common .
A second newer population was Southern , those who came to Detroit to work in the war plants .
Detroit was the single largest producer of war materiel in the United States , a city of hundreds of factories , and thousands of “ job shops.
” I went to school with their children , who were often barefoot , most could not read @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like they came from another planet .
I could barely understand their language , a rough English patois with only a few dozen words .
The subculture that grew up around them in the industrial North was violent , primitive , and steeped in superstition .
It was also steeped in race hatred .
The world we grew up in was totally white .
Racism was common but less accepted by those of European background as many of those , the skilled industrial “ elites ” had strong backgrounds in socialism and a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sunday , there was a “ roundtable ” at my home , my father ’ s friends , mostly German Americans , discussions of politics and religion .
I was allowed to sit in .
This was my real education .
There is only one way to feel secure living in the United States .
You have to be very healthy but so old you are still near death and extremely wealthy .
Is that possible ?
You can not have a social conscience or political beliefs , you can not have money @ @ @ @ @ @ @ better own lots of gold , canned goods , firearms and endless ammunition .
Then , of course , you must live somewhere where you can not be found , perhaps a private island .
If you are all of these things , then you can feel perfectly comfortable that you have no reason to fear America or at least not many .
If you are the other 99.99 % of Americans , you might want to reconsider .
As the world exists today , the United States is able , for reasons @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exist above the law .
So many of the things that , so many years ago , we damned Germany and Japan for , America does those things now .
It destroyed Vietnam .
I took part in that , killing millions , and the rationale behind that war was less than “ paper thin.
” The United States was clearly an aggressor supporting a fascist regime in violation of international law .
However , millions of Americans , many of them war veterans , brought the United States to a standstill to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ though alive today , seem to have lost something .
Worse still , their children , at least so many of them , managed to grow up without any social conscience whatsoever .
This brings me back to those Sunday talks with my father and Ed Stouff and Wilhelm Ohm , his two German American friends .
The talks were opposition to fascism , not just in Germany but America as well .
Today , opposition to fascism is considered by many anti-American .
Even if a parent wished to instill values in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ done through home schooling and blocking off all access to media , no MTV , no Facebook , no “ devices ” at all .
Such behavior would be considered “ child abuse.

[ Editor’s Note: Gordon goes on a deep dive today into his personal archives. You are going to learn a lot more about him, how his value system was formed in the crucible of the post war Detroit suburbs.
There were the poisoned factories that were killing machines for their workers, because there were always more workers to be had, like Southerners who were still wearing ‘rope belts’ a year after working at a plant.
I doubt that any other geopolitical writers are publishing background on themselves like this. Another reason he may have done it is we have detractors who conveniently try to frame us as being under some mysterious outside influence, and then some not so mysterious, simply because we publish the ‘other side’s position’ in several of our major conflicts of the day.
Gosh, we just thought that was journalism. But it appears we are ‘old school’, and to the millennials we are. I would save this piece to a file so you always have it. It is a VT classic, and those get targeted every now and then when someone has a budget to spend on hacking assignments.
Some of you baby boomers out there will have your own family stories of these times. Let us hear a bit about them in the comments if you choose. After all, we have nothing to lose but our heritage… Jim W. Dean ]

– First published … October 01-2020 –
What I am writing today I write inspired by the death of my good friend Andre Vltchek. He pushed all of us, we needed pushing. Now he is gone. We find our families where we can. We shared our stories, this was mine. I begin.
I am an American, born after the Second World War or Great Patriotic War as it is called in Russia. I grew up in Detroit, my father was a factory worker, my mother the daughter of a coal miner in Kentucky.
Both parents grew up in absolute poverty and, to a large extent, so did I. Being damned with the memory Donald Trump thinks he has; I remember the 1950s well, but through the lens of politically active parents and a father who loved Russia.
There were reasons he loved Russia. You see, America was always a promise and, to an extent, a “con.” It was the pursuit of happiness for some, the privileged few, but for others it was a life of debt and fear.
I watched as working in a factory killed him. He was 44 when I was born. This was common. Many Americans did not start families until late in life, due to the Great Depression and the war. Many of my friends had fathers who were sick and old during their early childhood.
Factories were often over 130 degrees, filled with smoke and carcinogenic solvents. Worse still, nearly all Americans then smoked cigarettes. Doctors advised this to “calm the nerves” despite decades old research on smoking and cancer, hidden from the public.
In Detroit, it snowed brown. If you breathed, you coughed up brown, everything was industry, everything was smoke, lead from gasoline, sulfur from cheap coal and adulterated food.
Anything could be in food. Milk contained chalk, sausage was all fat and filler, and crackers were made from axel grease as leavening. Pure food laws would come, and then they would be taken away, and the food supply would become even worse, GMO, hormones, anti-biotics and unrecognizable chemicals. Reagan did most of this.
Thus, we grew food, as much as possible on a 40-foot lot behind a tiny house and, in season, picked fruits and vegetables on local farms.
By the mid-1950s, my father’s health had deteriorated, and he began long bouts of hospitalization and recuperation. This left us $52 a week to live on.
To supplement income, we bought used cars, boats, motors and trailers, and repaired them in our yard. Every Saturday, we drove to downtown Detroit to buy the newspaper as it was first published and then scanned for “deals.”
By the time I was 8, I could tear down a car engine. This, however, may have been the best time of my life.
Everything possible we bought from local farmers, meat and cheese certainly, from farms that no longer exist, land long turned into suburbs that today suffer from urban blight themselves.
I remember the elections, Eisenhower twice, guaranteeing 8 years of urban decay and poverty across the nation, where a college education was an impossibility except for a very few. America’s class structure put even Britain to shame.
America was broken, and American workers and their families lived in constant fear. Farmers were being crushed by banks and large corporations.
Eisenhower’s party, the GOP, worked to destroy Social Security and the trade unions, funded by the same rich that backed Adolf Hitler. This war against the American people would culminate in Reagan and neo-conservatism.
Trade unions would disappear with representative democracy, destroyed through “gerrymandering” and voter suppression laws. America began a spiral into fascism under Reagan, one culminating in the Trump dictatorship.
My mother’s family lived in Kentucky. I remember driving to Hazard, Kentucky in 1955 to visit family. Some were doing well, the Gabbards owned a few oil wells, a tire store and a small coal mine.
My uncle Buford, who lost part of his feet from frostbite at Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge in 1944, owned small farms worked by white sharecroppers.
There were no African Americans in Southeast Kentucky, none whatsoever, not a single one. To reach the farms, we drove his old military truck through a riverbed. I remember breakfast, it was 4 AM, piles of food.
I also remember visiting my grandfather, my mother’s father. He was living near the railroad tracks in a shack with tar papered walls and newspaper filling the cracks. He had been a foreman in the mines, but had gotten sick as so many did. He would be dead soon.
My other grandfather died in 1913. He drank himself to death, leaving a wife who only spoke German and 7 children. My father helped support them by stealing food which sent him to a reformatory early in life. He was 7.
Life in Detroit was much like life in a European city, to an extent, at least to us it was. The core of skilled industrial workers in Detroit were German, Hungarian, and Polish. My father spoke German (and Yiddish), Polish and Russian. This was common.
A second newer population was Southern, those who came to Detroit to work in the war plants. Detroit was the single largest producer of war materiel in the United States, a city of hundreds of factories, and thousands of “job shops.”
I went to school with their children, who were often barefoot, most could not read, some never learned. It was like they came from another planet. I could barely understand their language, a rough English patois with only a few dozen words.
The subculture that grew up around them in the industrial North was violent, primitive, and steeped in superstition. It was also steeped in race hatred.
The world we grew up in was totally white. Racism was common but less accepted by those of European background as many of those, the skilled industrial “elites” had strong backgrounds in socialism and a high degree of political awareness.
Each Sunday, there was a “roundtable” at my home, my father’s friends, mostly German Americans, discussions of politics and religion. I was allowed to sit in. This was my real education.
There is only one way to feel secure living in the United States. You have to be very healthy but so old you are still near death and extremely wealthy. Is that possible?
You cannot have a social conscience or political beliefs, you cannot have money invested in stock markets and you had better own lots of gold, canned goods, firearms and endless ammunition.
Then, of course, you must live somewhere where you cannot be found, perhaps a private island.
If you are all of these things, then you can feel perfectly comfortable that you have no reason to fear America or at least not many. If you are the other 99.99% of Americans, you might want to reconsider.
As the world exists today, the United States is able, for reasons no one can really explain, to exist above the law. So many of the things that, so many years ago, we damned Germany and Japan for, America does those things now.
America has destroyed Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and Yemen, minimally.
It destroyed Vietnam. I took part in that, killing millions, and the rationale behind that war was less than “paper thin.” The United States was clearly an aggressor supporting a fascist regime in violation of international law.
However, millions of Americans, many of them war veterans, brought the United States to a standstill to end that war. Those people, though alive today, seem to have lost something.
Worse still, their children, at least so many of them, managed to grow up without any social conscience whatsoever.
This brings me back to those Sunday talks with my father and Ed Stouff and Wilhelm Ohm, his two German American friends. The talks were opposition to fascism, not just in Germany but America as well.
Today, opposition to fascism is considered by many anti-American. Even if a parent wished to instill values in a child, it could only be done through home schooling and blocking off all access to media, no MTV, no Facebook, no “devices” at all. Such behavior would be considered “child abuse.”
This has left the last few American generations adrift, dependent on fake news and education based on propaganda. After World War II, a great effort was made to end any possibility of social upheaval in the United States, unless of course, that social upheaval served the ruling class as it does today.
Generations were raised to distrust science, to look on social reform as “interference with the natural order of things” and to scorn any information that challenges this primitive outlook. The result has been catastrophic.
By 1975 it was believed the United States would never enter another “Vietnam.” Now the United States is involved in a dozen “Vietnams,” but fights using paid “terrorists” and economic blockades called “sanctions.”
Nixon’s “mad bomber” campaigns against Vietnam and Cambodia have been replaced with drone attacks. “Joystick warriors” at Fort Huachuca or other bases, Ramstein for instance, have now “terror bombed” a dozen nations or more for 20 years with no discussion of stopping and no one cares or even notices.
Helping enforce this American sewer are the children and grandchildren of the Southern whites who came to the industrial North during World War II, seeking to better themselves.
Instead, they became the fodder for the doctors of despair, the psychological warriors who profit from acrimony and division. Their offspring may just well be the “Proud Boys” and the supremacist “militias,” fighting for the total surveillance state, for more wars, more sanctions and more suffering around the world, and at home.
And so it goes.

Guardian: Well, it’s definitely a plot twist. Like a lot of people who sat through Tuesday’s presidential debate, I’m amazed the week has ended with Donald Trump ingesting bleach, and not me.
As you may vaguely have heard, the US president and his wife, Melania, have tested positive for the novel coronavirus – which feels untimely given that, mere hours earlier, Trump had been declaring: “The end of the pandemic is in sight.” Perhaps this is a one-last-job movie. Alternatively, picture a Wuhan bat staring pensively into the fireplace as its butler suggests not thinking too hard about Trump’s motivations. Some poorly face painted men just want to watch the world burn.

Those of us who want to escape the cesspool Trump has helped drag the world into will wish him a better time with the virus than the one to which he blithely condemned so many of those he was elected to serve.

“ He is not requiring any supplemental oxygen , but in consultation with specialists we have elected to initiate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ abundance of caution , and at the recommendation of his physician and medical experts , the president will be working from the presidential offices at Walter Reed for the next few days , ” White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said in a statement .
Doctors urged the move so Trump could get immediate care if needed , according to an unnamed White House official .
The surprise announcement comes shortly after his physician , US Navy Commander Sean P. Conley , announced that Trump had been treated with an experimental antibody cocktail @ @ @ @ @ @ @ D and zinc .
Trump “ remains fatigued but in good spirits , ” Conley said .

veteranstoday--2020-10-03--NWO and organized crime caught red-handed in Syria–again

You ’ ve already seen this over the past seven years or so : New World Order agents funded and coached terrorist organs in Syria .
Not only that , they deliberately “ planted stories in media outlets from BBC to Al Jazeera , and ran a cadre of journalists.
” How do we know this ?
Leaked documents : “ Leaked documents show how UK government contractors developed an advanced infrastructure of propaganda to stimulate support in the West for Syria ’ s political and armed opposition.Virtually every aspect of the Syrian opposition was cultivated and marketed by Western @ @ @ @ @ @ @ political narratives to their branding , from what they said to where they said it.
” VT has been reporting on these issues since the beginning of time .
VT writers of various stripes have reported how Turkey , Israel , the United States , Saudi Arabia , Qatar , among other countries , have all collaborated in order to create social and political unrest in Syria .
“ The leaked files reveal how Western intelligence cutouts played the media like a fiddle , carefully crafting English- and Arabic-language media coverage of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ constant stream of pro-opposition coverage .
US and European contractors trained and advised Syrian opposition leaders at all levels , from young media activists to the heads of the parallel government-in-exile .
“ These firms also organized interviews for Syrian opposition leaders on mainstream outlets such as BBC and the UK ’ s Channel 4.More than half of the stringers used by Al Jazeera in Syria were trained in a joint US-UK government program called Basma , which produced hundreds of Syrian opposition media activists .
“ Western government PR firms not only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but as the leaked documents reveal , they produced their own propagandistic pseudo-news for broadcast on major TV networks in the Middle East , including BBC Arabic , Al Jazeera , Al Arabiya , and Orient TV.
” Back in 2013 , Gordon Duff rightly said that the war in Syria was thoroughly orchestrated and methodically executed by a world-wide organized crime , one which continues to hunt politicians across the political spectrum in the United States and Europe .
The late John McCain was part of this covert activity .
VT @ @ @ @ @ @ @ showing that both the United States and Israel were the key players behind the diabolical war–a war that has devastated the entire country itself .
Ben Norton , a brave journalist , has recently written : “ These UK-funded firms functioned as full-time PR flacks for the extremist-dominated Syrian armed opposition .
One contractor , called InCoStrat , said it was in constant contact with a network of more than 1,600 international journalists and ‘ influencers , ’ and used them to push pro-opposition talking points.Another Western government contractor , ARK , crafted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s Salafi-jihadist armed opposition by ‘ softening its image.
’ ARK boasted that it provided opposition propaganda that “ aired almost every day on ” major Arabic-language TV networks.
” Norton moved on to make this bold but factual statement : “ Virtually every major Western corporate media outlet was influenced by the UK government-funded disinformation campaign exposed in the trove of leaked documents , from the New York Times to the Washington Post , CNN to The Guardian , the BBC to Buzzfeed.
” Once again , VT has been saying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years .
Norton indeed is trying to catch up with us here .
What we are seeing is that Israel has much of the Western media and politicians by the balls .
Israel tells them what to do , and those media outlets and politicians blindly execute the order .
As we have reported over the years , Israel wanted to remove Assad from power from the very beginning of the war in Syria .
In fact , Israel literally wanted terrorist organizations to thrive in the region because , according to them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government .
Moreover , colossal hoaxes and deliberate lies were summoned in order to destroy the cohesive government in Syria .
Ian Henderson , former OPCW inspection team leader and engineering expert , even declared to the United Nations Security Council that no chemical attack ever occurred in places like Douma !
Assad didn ’ t fall for any Western machination .
In fact , he didn ’ t want to go down without a fight .
In fact , he had no other choice but to fight .
He could not let @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to preempt the tidal waves of terrorists coming to Syria .
And the main diabolical force that has been supporting terrorist activities in the region for more than seven years was and still is Israel .
Assad was therefore fighting for the survival of Syria , an ancient and significant region in the Middle East which played a huge role in the propagation of Christianity in the first century and all the way to the present .
In fact , Syrian Christians look to Assad for protection .
Even news outlets such as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hussein protected Christians .
Since Israel is essentially a manifestation of “ the synagogue of Satan , ” Israel has to attack any country that once was a haven for Christianity and marginalized groups that respect Logos and are docile to the moral order..
So what choice did Assad have again ?
Well , he had everything to lose if Syria fell .
The Syrian people had everything to lose if the jihadists and other terrorist cells invaded the country .
In that sense , Assad had to put his back against a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ waves coming from Israel and the United States .
Thanks to Russia , Assad is still thriving , and Syria will survive .
What we are seeing here is that New World Order Agents in Syria are the losers because Assad is still in power .
Now we have an avalanche of material which incontrovertibly shows that dark forces and world-wide organized crimes were at work in Syria .
The same dark forces which destroyed countries like Iraq and Afghanistan were on the brink of bringing Syria to its knees .
But since @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out in history , as Hegel put it , the forces of evil retreated in Syria , despite the fact that Syria was outnumbered .
Norton continued : “ Other materials show how London and Western governments worked together to build a new police force in opposition-controlled areas .
“ Many of these Western-backed opposition groups in Syria were extremist Salafi-jihadists .
Some of the UK government contractors whose activities are exposed in these leaked documents were in effect supporting Syrian al-Qaeda affiliate Jabhat al-Nusra and its fanatical offshoots .
“ The documents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Anonymous , and were published under a series of files entitled , ‘ Op .
HMG [ Her Majesty ’ s Government ] Trojan Horse : From Integrity Initiative To Covert Ops Around The Globe .
Part 1 : Taming Syria.
’ The unidentified leakers said they aim to ‘ expose criminal activity of the UK ’ s FCO and secret services , ’ stating , ‘ We declare war on the British neocolonialism !
’ ” Norton added : “ A leaked UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office report from 2014 reveals a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the Department for International Development to support “ strategic communications , research , monitoring and evaluation and operational support to Syrian opposition entities.
” Well , this was the year in which VT began to publish a treasure trove of information on organized crimes in Syria .
This brings us to an important point : ideologies in the West begin to be very interesting because much of the far-right in both Europe and elsewhere did not even challenge their governments about their diabolical wars in the Middle East and in countries around @ @ @ @ @ @ @ perpetual wars have now begun to affect virtually every country in the West , far-right groups and nationalists now think it ’ s time to come out of the woods with sticks and manchettes .
Richard Spencer in the United States is a classic example .
Ben Norton , “ Western government-funded intelligence cutouts trained Syrian opposition leaders , planted stories in media outlets from BBC to Al Jazeera , and ran a cadre of journalists .
A trove of leaked documes exposes the propaganda network , ” The Grayzone , September 29 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Israel wanted Assad gone since start of Syria civil war , ” Jerusalem Post , September 17 , 2013.In testimony before the United Nations Security Council , former OPCW inspection team leader and engineering expert Ian Henderson stated that their investigation in Douma , Syria suggested no chemical attack took place .
But their findings were suppressed , ” The Grayzone , January 22 , 2020 .
See for example “ Report : Israel treating al-Qaida fighters wounded in Syria civil war , ” Jerusalem Post , March 13 , 2015 ; “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shows Israeli commandos rescuing wounded men from Syrian warzone – but WHY are they risking their lives for Islamic militants ?
, ” Daily Mail , December 8 , 2015 ; “ UN reports Israeli support for Syria rebels , ” Christian Science Monitor , December 7 , 2014 ; Roy Jones , “ Israel Gives Secret Aid to Syrian Rebels , ” Wall Street Journal , June 18 , 2017 .

You’ve already seen this over the past seven years or so: New World Order agents funded and coached terrorist organs in Syria. Not only that, they deliberately “planted stories in media outlets from BBC to Al Jazeera, and ran a cadre of journalists.”
How do we know this? Leaked documents:
“Leaked documents show how UK government contractors developed an advanced infrastructure of propaganda to stimulate support in the West for Syria’s political and armed opposition.Virtually every aspect of the Syrian opposition was cultivated and marketed by Western government-backed public relations firms, from their political narratives to their branding, from what they said to where they said it.”

One contractor, called InCoStrat, said it was in constant contact with a network of more than 1,600 international journalists and ‘influencers,’ and used them to push pro-opposition talking points. Another Western government contractor, ARK, crafted a strategy to ‘re-brand’ Syria’s Salafi-jihadist armed opposition by ‘softening its image.’ ARK boasted that it provided opposition propaganda that “aired almost every day on” major Arabic-language TV networks.”
Norton moved on to make this bold but factual statement:
“Virtually every major Western corporate media outlet was influenced by the UK government-funded disinformation campaign exposed in the trove of leaked documents, from the New York Times to the Washington Post, CNN to The Guardian, the BBC to Buzzfeed.”
Once again, VT has been saying the same thing for more than seven years. Norton indeed is trying to catch up with us here.
What we are seeing is that Israel has much of the Western media and politicians by the balls. Israel tells them what to do, and those media outlets and politicians blindly execute the order. As we have reported over the years, Israel wanted to remove Assad from power from the very beginning of the war in Syria. In fact, Israel literally wanted terrorist organizations to thrive in the region because, according to them, terrorism is better than the Assad government.
Moreover, colossal hoaxes and deliberate lies were summoned in order to destroy the cohesive government in Syria. Ian Henderson, former OPCW inspection team leader and engineering expert, even declared to the United Nations Security Council that no chemical attack ever occurred in places like Douma!
Assad didn’t fall for any Western machination. In fact, he didn’t want to go down without a fight. In fact, he had no other choice but to fight. He could not let the Israeli regime win. He had to preempt the tidal waves of terrorists coming to Syria. And the main diabolical force that has been supporting terrorist activities in the region for more than seven years was and still is Israel.
Assad was therefore fighting for the survival of Syria, an ancient and significant region in the Middle East which played a huge role in the propagation of Christianity in the first century and all the way to the present. In fact, Syrian Christians look to Assad for protection. Even news outlets such as PBS know that both Assad and Saddam Hussein protected Christians.
Since Israel is essentially a manifestation of “the synagogue of Satan,” Israel has to attack any country that once was a haven for Christianity and marginalized groups that respect Logos and are docile to the moral order.. So what choice did Assad have again? Well, he had everything to lose if Syria fell. The Syrian people had everything to lose if the jihadists and other terrorist cells invaded the country. In that sense, Assad had to put his back against a solid wall and fight the ideological tidal waves coming from Israel and the United States. Thanks to Russia, Assad is still thriving, and Syria will survive.
What we are seeing here is that New World Order Agents in Syria are the losers because Assad is still in power. Now we have an avalanche of material which incontrovertibly shows that dark forces and world-wide organized crimes were at work in Syria. The same dark forces which destroyed countries like Iraq and Afghanistan were on the brink of bringing Syria to its knees. But since Logos has a way of working itself out in history, as Hegel put it, the forces of evil retreated in Syria, despite the fact that Syria was outnumbered. Norton continued:
“Other materials show how London and Western governments worked together to build a new police force in opposition-controlled areas.
“Many of these Western-backed opposition groups in Syria were extremist Salafi-jihadists. Some of the UK government contractors whose activities are exposed in these leaked documents were in effect supporting Syrian al-Qaeda affiliate Jabhat al-Nusra and its fanatical offshoots.
“The documents were obtained by a group calling itself Anonymous, and were published under a series of files entitled, ‘Op. HMG [Her Majesty’s Government] Trojan Horse: From Integrity Initiative To Covert Ops Around The Globe. Part 1: Taming Syria.’ The unidentified leakers said they aim to ‘expose criminal activity of the UK’s FCO and secret services,’ stating, ‘We declare war on the British neocolonialism!’”
Norton added:
“A leaked UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office report from 2014 reveals a joint operation with the Ministry of Defence and the Department for International Development to support “strategic communications, research, monitoring and evaluation and operational support to Syrian opposition entities.”
Well, this was the year in which VT began to publish a treasure trove of information on organized crimes in Syria.
This brings us to an important point: ideologies in the West begin to be very interesting because much of the far-right in both Europe and elsewhere did not even challenge their governments about their diabolical wars in the Middle East and in countries around much of the world. But since perpetual wars have now begun to affect virtually every country in the West, far-right groups and nationalists now think it’s time to come out of the woods with sticks and manchettes. Richard Spencer in the United States is a classic example.

veteranstoday--2020-10-03--VT: Kizzee Shooting in LA Likely Police Murder

VT took a look at this shooting and examined 3 frames : Our findings are this : Kizzee was shot in the back while running away unarmed .
Police saw no weapon .
Kizzee had been shot several times before he even hit the ground , making the police story outrageous .
The idea that someone shot in the back , blown over to his side could spin around in a fraction of a second , go invisible to an unexpected HD camera on a nearby home ( Claud Rains ? )
and reach for a gun no one has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ times , even from the front .
This is what the evidence shows , the only evidence , this video .
There is no evidence of a weapon seen , no body cams by police , no cams on cars , just lots and lots of shooting at someone escaping police who stopped him for absolutely no reason at all .
Would an audio recording show why Kizzee was running for his life ?
Was he told he was going to be murdered ?
This is the best explanation of what we see @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their case , they would have worn cameras and recorded audio .
Instead , they are caught by a neighbor ’ s surveillance camera .
Officers carefully checked that no one was filming them when they opened fire , shooting Kizzee in the back .
Guns found on the ground by police are never accepted as anything but a “ drop.
” Lawyers laugh at this .

He spins to the right, out of control, hitting the pickup truck with his right hand while his parcel had fallen to the left where he was shot, some distance away Subject is still falling while 2nd officer fires, you can easily see the blast, well before any possible “reaching for weapon,” real or imaginary could go on
Our findings are this:
Kizzee was shot in the back while running away unarmed. Police saw no weapon. Kizzee had been shot several times before he even hit the ground, making the police story outrageous.
The idea that someone shot in the back, blown over to his side could spin around in a fraction of a second, go invisible to an unexpected HD camera on a nearby home (Claud Rains?) and reach for a gun no one has seen…
Then he is shot 14 more times, even from the front.
This is what the evidence shows, the only evidence, this video. There is no evidence of a weapon seen, no body cams by police, no cams on cars, just lots and lots of shooting at someone escaping police who stopped him for absolutely no reason at all.
Would an audio recording show why Kizzee was running for his life? Was he told he was going to be murdered?
This is the best explanation of what we see here.
If police wanted to make their case, they would have worn cameras and recorded audio. Instead, they are caught by a neighbor’s surveillance camera.
Officers carefully checked that no one was filming them when they opened fire, shooting Kizzee in the back.
Guns found on the ground by police are never accepted as anything but a “drop.” Lawyers laugh at this.

Wilson’s focus, we are told, was the Great War. Trump’s focus, we can clearly see, is the presidential election of November. Both of these ‘leaders’ also used the excuse that knowing the exact nature of the pandemic would bring down the nation’s morale. Give us a break!

Health Editor’s Note: Joshua trees have existed in the Mojave Desert for 2.5 million years, through ice ages and periods of warming, but at the current rate of climate change they will not survive until the end of this century.
This tree has become the first plant to be placed under the protection of the California Endangered Species Act. Studies will determine how to develop a recovery plan and to best protect this plant from climate change as well as industrial development.
So, for now it is illegal to cut down, damage or remove a Joshua tree without special permits. This is a good thing for the Joshua tree and for humans….Carol
