veteranstoday--2020-07-14--Explosive: New Melania-Epstein Ties Alleged Along with Massive Cover-up

Trump ’ s real addiction has been prostitutes and porn stars .
It is also his weakness and why Roy Cohn , Barr , Guiliani and Cohen spent much of their lives cleaning up his messes .
We also know Trump won ’ t turn down a little girl when Epstein offers one .
( link ) It ’ s also why 140,000 Americans are dead and why America is drowning .
Snopes.com : “ Epstein stated that he introduced Donald Trump in 1998 to his future wife Melania ” Editor ’ s note : We have confirmed that Jeffrey @ @ @ @ @ @ @ brought girls in from Slovenia to be used to seduce and blackmail wealthy and powerful men , according to a new MSM story , on behalf of Israeli intelligence .
We also know that it was Jeffrey Epstein that introduced Melania to Donald , something confirmed in the MSM story below .
Are those things connected ?
Connecting “ dots ” or more than dots , much more , involving Trump , Epstein and Israeli control of Trump can and we believe has been fatal .
Our people like Melania , say she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aren ’ t saying that Melania , who is from Slovenia and came to the US as a model , with a history of questionable films , a history erased by plastic surgery and extremely aggressive action in her home country… .
We aren ’ t saying that at all but we are saying that the Maxwell/Epstein organization was a Mossad operation , which is confirmed here , based on statements during Acosta ’ s confirmation hearings .
From the Daily Beast : “ Is the Epstein case going to cause a problem @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Acosta had been asked .
Acosta had explained , breezily , apparently , that back in the day he ’ d had just one meeting on the Epstein case .
He ’ d cut the non-prosecution deal with one of Epstein ’ s attorneys because he had “ been told ” to back off , that Epstein was above his pay grade .
“ I was told Epstein ‘ belonged to intelligence ’ and to leave it alone , ” he told his interviewers in the Trump transition , who evidently thought that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and hired Acosta .
( The Labor Department had no comment when asked about this . )
By “ intelligence , ” they meant “ Israeli intelligence , ” of course .
What they forgot to mention is that his target was the United States .
Maxwell came from a Mossad family , they murdered her father in 1991 for trying to blackmail them .
We could never find what Epstein actually did for a living and we looked really hard .
We start with him leaving college without a degree and getting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ William Barr ’ s father at an exclusive school…though he had no degree , teaching experience , certification…and was even then an extreme risk at the Dalton School , one awash with sex abuse intrigues .
Then comes Les Wexner…and we begin seeing the moves toward 9/11 , war with Iraq and an economic collapse in 2008….but this story is from today ’ s Daily Beast : “ Donald Trump once hosted a party with a guest list made up of just himself , Jeffrey Epstein , and “ 28 girls , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and ignored an organizer ’ s warning about Epstein ’ s conduct .
The “ calendar girl ” event is reported to have taken place at Trump ’ s Mar-a-Lago in 1992 .
George Houraney , who ran American Dream Enterprise , claimed in an interview that he organized the event after a request from Trump .
“ I arranged to have some contestants fly in , ” said Houraney .
“ At the very first party , I said , ‘ Who ’ s coming tonight ?
I have 28 girls coming.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Houraney added that he warned Trump about his friend ’ s conduct , recalling : “ I said , ‘ Look , Donald , I know Jeff really well , I can ’ t have him going after younger girls.
’ … He said , ‘ Look I ’ m putting my name on this .
I wouldn ’ t put my name on it and have a scandal.
’ ” The Times report also claims Epstein has told people since the election that he was the one who introduced the president to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump .
The White House didn ’ t respond to the newspaper ’ s request for comment .
”

Snopes.com: “Epstein stated that he introduced Donald Trump in 1998 to his future wife Melania”
Editor’s note: We have confirmed that Jeffrey Epstein owned a modeling agency where he brought girls in from Slovenia to be used to seduce and blackmail wealthy and powerful men, according to a new MSM story, on behalf of Israeli intelligence.
Christian Reporter Suggests Jeffrey Epstein ‘Brokered the Sale’ of Melania to Donald Trump https://t.co/Ur0vsRlGyv — #TuckFrump (@realTuckFrumper) July 8, 2020
Some believe that Melania "worked" for Epstein and that is how she & Donny met. Did Donny have to pay Jeffrey a release fee? Blackmail was one of Epstein's big income streams apparently. Grifters just find each other don't they Roger Stone. — lavenderlicious (@lavender1980) July 13, 2020
I heard Roger Stone is celebrating you commuting him by having a “swingers” party for his wife, you know like the ones he used to have at the Capital Couples Club in DC. Will you and Melania be joining in on the fun now that Epstein is gone? Just think it’ll be like old times! — Firewire (@1Firewire) July 13, 2020
So did Epstein sleep with Melania back in the day? How did trump get setup with her? — WeThePeople🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@PrincessBravato) July 6, 2020
We also know that it was Jeffrey Epstein that introduced Melania to Donald, something confirmed in the MSM story below. Are those things connected?

The truth is both Donald Trump and Melania Knauss were involved with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. https://t.co/wzVgzCRWCn — Shelora Fitzgerald (@SheloraFitz) July 13, 2020
Gotta wonder if Rick Wiles will keep getting White House press credentials now that he's alleging that Ghislaine Maxwell "brokered the sale" of Melania to Donald Trump on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein. pic.twitter.com/OCnrtREnYv — Right Wing Watch (@RightWingWatch) July 7, 2020
Connecting “dots” or more than dots, much more, involving Trump, Epstein and Israeli control of Trump can and we believe has been fatal.
Our people like Melania, say she hates Donald. Imagine that!
We aren’t saying that Melania, who is from Slovenia and came to the US as a model, with a history of questionable films, a history erased by plastic surgery and extremely aggressive action in her home country….
We aren’t saying that at all but we are saying that the Maxwell/Epstein organization was a Mossad operation, which is confirmed here, based on statements during Acosta’s confirmation hearings. From the Daily Beast:
“Is the Epstein case going to cause a problem [for confirmation hearings]?” Acosta had been asked. Acosta had explained, breezily, apparently, that back in the day he’d had just one meeting on the Epstein case. He’d cut the non-prosecution deal with one of Epstein’s attorneys because he had “been told” to back off, that Epstein was above his pay grade. “I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it alone,” he told his interviewers in the Trump transition, who evidently thought that was a sufficient answer and went ahead and hired Acosta. (The Labor Department had no comment when asked about this.)
By “intelligence,” they meant “Israeli intelligence,” of course. What they forgot to mention is that his target was the United States.

The arresting cop on the sidewalk was busy handcuffing his catch, and I cannot hear any of the usually expected “get down on the ground” at the orange guy standing close by, dangerously close to the arresting cop whose eyes are distracted from him.

With a group of cops on his flanks, orange suspect basically commits suicide while trying to take one cop with him who also makes a mistake of not having his gun drawn. The perp pulls his gun and tries to shoot him in the head twice, which missed even though only a few feet away.

A split second life or death shooting in Detroit. Perp in the orange shirt pulls his gun to shoot the advancing cop on the left, attempting a head shot because he does not have a vest on his face. This was a bad boy.
– First published … July 13, 2020 –
According to police, the new video proves that 20-year-old Hakeem Littleton, who was fatally shot by police, was not unarmed as rumours have claimed.
The Detroit Police Department has released body and dash-camera footage that shows that Littleton was the first to open fire before he was shot dead by the officers. According to the video, Littleton fired two shots and continued shooting even as he fell down, but no police officer was injured.
“As Littleton raised the gun in his left hand he was aiming at the head of the officer”, Police Chief James Craig said at a press conference on Saturday. “It’s simply a miracle he wasn’t struck in the head.”
Today @ChiefJECraigDPD held a press conference regarding the Officer Involved Shooting Incident that took place on the city’s west side @detroitpolice #ProtectandServe #OurCommunity A Facebook link of the press conference is also attached. https://t.co/NbtgCAGVZq pic.twitter.com/8n36DjCPEy — Detroit Police Dept.

Turkey Controversially Converts Hagia Sophia From Museum Into Mosque
by Theresa Machemer/Smithsonianmag.com
Last Friday, a Turkish court revoked the 1934 order designating Istanbul’s Hagia Sophia as a museum. Within minutes, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan decreed that the site would reopen as a working mosque, reports Carlotta Gall for the New York Times.
Built in the sixth century A.D. as an Eastern Orthodox cathedral, the architectural wonder underwent a brief stint as a Roman Catholic church before becoming a mosque in 1453. More recently, the temple-turned-museum has emerged as a monument to harmony with shared religious significance.
Erdogan’s decision to reopen the building for Muslim prayers has drawn criticism from parties including the World Council of Churches; the Greek Foreign Ministry; European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell; Pope Francis; and Unesco, which declared the house of worship a heritage site in 1985. These detractors cite concerns regarding access to the building and preservation of its Christian icons and mosaics.
In his televised address, the Turkish president promised to keep the site open to both Muslims and non-Muslims. He also announced plans to eliminate entrance fees.

Is it safe to fly again? Your coronavirus questions answered
by Joseph Hostetler/millionmilesecrets.com
Since March, Planet Earth has been screaming beneath the elbow of Covid-19. Data suggests that one in five infected persons requires hospitalization. Those odds aren’t good enough for most to roll the dice on a vacation any time soon.
Our previously frequented travel sites, such as American Express Travel, have gathered a thick layer of dust. Is it time to begin booking travel again? Among the hundreds of thousands of tragic stories, the intermittent spikes in reported cases, and the economic shutdown, you’ll find positive news, too. As cases rise in some areas, stats show the overall mortality rate declining. To be clear: The CDC states that “staying home is the best way to protect yourself and others from getting sick.” Obviously, you’re least at risk inside your own brick and mortar. But how dangerous is air travel at this time? If you need to fly in the near future — or just want to — you’ve probably asked many of the questions in the below FAQ. What states have reopened? International travel? Regulations vary with the contours of state borders. Read More:

The .350 Legend is a brand new round that was first introduced in 2019 .
It was designed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a very fine anti-personnel round .
It is a smooth sided round similar to the idea of the .450 Bushmaster but is a much more controllable round to shoot with much less recoil .
Like the .450 Bushmaster , it was designed to allow hunters to use it in areas that limit deer hunting to the use of shotguns and non-tapered pistol rounds .
They started with a basic .223 round and did not taper it down to the .223 bullet .
This makes the projectile a .357 bullet .
It is Quite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( most states limit capacity for hunting to 5 rounds .
Larger magazine will probably be available in the future ) • Optics are available but not included in price .
The .458 SOCCOM was designed by the military to be a handheld rifle used primarily by the Navy and Coast Guard to shoot holes in pirate ships and drug runner ’ s boats .
It fires a large heavy bullet at high velocity .
A typical example is a 350-grain bullet going 1800+ feet per second .
This could take down an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
This is a new version of our .458 SOCCOM featuring a side charging system rather than the usual rear charging handle .
This is usually an extra cost option but we are offering it for the same price as our previously offered rear charger .
Aside from the visual differences , the side charging system does not get in the way of the rear of a scope .
• Shockwave Blade arm brace mounted on KAK custom buffer tube with detents for proper position setting of brace • 30 round or 10 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ law ) New variation of our exclusive “ Can-Within-a-Can ” This is a new variation of our famous “ can-within-a-can design .
The outer front grip is grooved rather than the textured design of our original design .
We hope to be able to also offer our original version again soon .
This is our new model “ basic ” rifle .
The functional parts are the same high quality that we use on our premium rifles .
The differences are that it has a basic Mil-spec adjustable stock and pistol grip .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Our basic model is a step above most basic rifles in that we include a 10 inch slimline keymod front rail instead of the plastic handguard most offer .
• 16-inch Phosphate coated or parkerized barrel compatible with .223 and 5.56 ammo • 30 or 10 round magazine ( depends on your local laws ) • Optic not included in base price ( add a 3-9X40 Barksa scope for $ 60 or fold-able open sights for $ 35 ) • This rifle is also available in other calibers at a slight premium @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and New York have enacted cosmetic laws that ban so-called “ assault rifles.
” Any rifle with any appearance item from a list of “ features ” makes it illegal to purchase .
We designed and built a “ featureless ” rifle that has none of the evil parts .
Functionally it is identical to our regular AR rifles , it just looks different .
At first glance , it looks a bit odd but it is actually very pleasant to shoot .
We only have one in stock and these special stocks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ don ’ t know when we will be able to build another one .

This rifle features a high-end ELD Defense match grade target barrel .
It maintains accuracy at well past 1000 yards .
ELD is a British company that has made barrels for the UK competition rifle team for many years .
They have recently entered the US market and offered manufacturers reasonable prices to get us to try their products .
We have found their quality to be excellent .
Now that we are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
This is the last barrel we bought at the lower price so in the future this rifle will cost more .
The photo shows the rifle equipped with a Zeiss scope which is currently out of stock so we are offering it with a Hi-Lux Leatherwood scope in 4-16X44 .
This is a quality “ piece of glass.

We do , however , have one that was built by Palmetto State Armory that we can sell .
We took their rifle and replaced the stock with a MOE and added a custom pistol grip .
We put on a detachable carry handle with built-in dual aperture sights that co-witness with the front sight post .
We added a removable rail with a 3-9X40 Barksa scope on top of the handle .
This can be easily removed or replaced using the single thumbscrew that locks it in place .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a deer hunting round though it can also be a quite effective anti-personnel round .
Several states , including Michigan , have different zones during deer hunting season .
Those nearer to cities only allow the use of shotguns or rifles using non-tapered rounds .
The intent of the non-tapered round was to use a pistol cartridge in a rifle for a limited range and power .
Rounds such as the .357 magnum , .44 magnum or the .45 Long Colt are used .
Any rifle that uses a cartridge has a larger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to propel a smaller caliber bullet at high velocity is not allowed .
Bushmaster designed a round to get around this limitation and called it the .450 Bushmaster .
You can think of it as basically a .45 very long Colt .
It is a non-tapered cartridge so it is legal to use in these restricted areas but has power similar to the high powered hunting rifles .

from Gordon Duff and Mike Chester, we present;
In the last few months, demand for our offerings has increased dramatically and we have completely sold out of our “basic” special model. There is a severe shortage on the availability of parts which resulted in the price we pay for parts to sharply increase. Parts for the “Basic” if they were even available, would now cost more than we were selling the complete rifles for. No matter how many times I do the calculations, I still don’t think I can make up the deficit in volume.
All of the other firearms shown are still available at the prices shown but we are down to only one of each for most of them and replacing them will cost more.
We are doing our best to keep our custom products available at reasonable prices, but in the foreseeable future we see shortages and higher prices.
Right now, these seen below are the only complete rifles and pistols available, but we are working to replenish our parts supply when they become available.
We still have the necessary components to build complete lower receivers so if you already have an upper, know another place to buy one or have built your own we can still supply the necessary lowers. Prices start at $325 for complete lowers (this price is for a standard mil-spec adjustable stock and pistol grip) and can go up somewhat depending on options chosen. Call Mike at 517-548-9558 to ask any questions or to place an order…

COVID attack cat as requested
Recent events have seriously increased the demand for firearms and many dealers are experiencing shortages. We have a very limited supply of in-stock complete rifles and pistols as well as parts for custom builds.
Gordon Duff with one of the VT Firearms ready to go
There are many weapons in inventory that are not listed including a good supply of curio and relic military weapons. We have a somewhat limited supply of optics and magazines so, for now, they are not available for sale except with a rifle or pistol purchase.
50 years before Kadir and G
Many sellers are trying to take advantage of the current shortage by raising their prices but we don’t believe in price gouging. Of course, our suppliers have raised their prices and since our inventory needs to be replaced we will have to raise our prices to compensate. Many parts have more than doubled in price and many are not available at any price. We are doing our best to keep our prices as low as possible. We don’t encourage panic buying but are here to serve your needs.

Our original exclusive “Can-Within-a-Can”
This is the original version of our famous “can-within-a-can design.
This was originally designed for UK forces as a replacement for the HK MP 5. Their version is 40 round clips, .300AAC/Blackout with threaded recess barrel (on the VT version as well) to take a silencer. If in Blackout, subsonic ammo is available.
When tested against a 9mm MP 5 which costs 4 times as much, this weapon makes the MP 5 look like a child’s toy. The world of fake weapons gurus had no idea we could get 8 times the range and 5 times the hitting power out of a lighter weapon with larger capacity that you can also beat someone to death with, thus the ‘can within a can’ design.

Trump Demanded Schools Reopen, His Experts Warned of ‘Highest Risk’
By Eileen Sullivan and
WASHINGTON — Federal materials for reopening schools, shared the week President Trump demanded weaker guidelines to do so, said fully reopening schools and universities remained the “highest risk” for the spread of the coronavirus.
The 69-page document, obtained by The New York Times and marked “For Internal Use Only,” was intended for federal public health response teams to have as they are deployed to hot spots around the country. But it appears to have circulated the same week that Vice President Mike Pence announced that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would release new guidelines, saying that the administration did not want them to be “too tough.” It is unclear whether Mr. Trump saw the document, nor is it clear how much of it will survive once new guidance is completed.
(The cover page of the document is dated July 8, 2019, an obvious typographical error since the novel coronavirus did not exist then.)
What is clear is that federal health experts are using a road map that is vastly different from what Mr. Trump wanted.

Mueller lawyer to publish ‘Meat’ from Russiagate, the mob censored/suppressed attempt to save America from Trump

Guardian : Andrew Weissmann , an attorney who played a leading role under Robert Mueller in the investigation of Russian election interference , will release a book about the special counsel ’ s near two-year examination of links between Donald Trump and Moscow .
Time to put Roger Stone in the grand jury to find out what he knows about Trump but would not tell .
Commutation can ’ t stop that .
Where Law Ends : Inside the Mueller Investigation will be published by Random House on 29 September .
The publisher promised “ a meticulous account of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ongoing battles with the Trump administration ” .
It will be the latest in a lucrative stream of books about Trump , his presidency and the Russia investigation .
In a statement , Weissmann said : “ I felt it was necessary to record this episode in our history , as seen and experienced by an insider .
“ This is the story of our investigation into how our democracy was attacked by Russia and how those who condoned and ignored that assault undermined our ability to uncover the truth .
My obligation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ facts where they led , using all available tools and undeterred by the onslaught of the president ’ s unique powers to undermine our work.
” Weissmann was active on Twitter over the weekend , after Trump announced the commutation of a prison sentence awaiting Roger Stone , an aide and ally , arising from Mueller ’ s work .
Stone , 67 and suspected of being the link between Russian intelligence , WikiLeaks and the president himself , was convicted on counts of lying to Congress , obstruction of justice and witness @ @ @ @ @ @ @ report to prison on Tuesday , to serve a 40-month sentence .
Mueller himself spoke out over the weekend , via a column in the Washington Post .
Weissmann agreed with the Republican senator Mitt Romney ’ s description of an instance of “ unprecedented , historic corruption ” and advocated that Stone be brought in front of a grand jury .

Pardon power cannot be end run around rule of law. To thwart Trump abuse, new Congress should make clear that granting pardon/commutation for anyone who could testify against POTUS commits (1) obstruction of justice and (2) an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor. — Andrew Weissmann (@AWeissmann_) July 11, 2020

It will be the latest in a lucrative stream of books about Trump, his presidency and the Russia investigation.
Barr’s cover story that he sought to remove SDNY US Attorney Berman because the Administration wanted to give the slot to SEC’s Clayton does not track. Clayton could not start until Senate confirmation. So the question remains: why did Barr and Trump want Berman out immediately? — Andrew Weissmann (@AWeissmann_) July 9, 2020
In a statement, Weissmann said: “I felt it was necessary to record this episode in our history, as seen and experienced by an insider.
“This is the story of our investigation into how our democracy was attacked by Russia and how those who condoned and ignored that assault undermined our ability to uncover the truth. My obligation as a prosecutor was to follow the facts where they led, using all available tools and undeterred by the onslaught of the president’s unique powers to undermine our work.”
Weissmann was active on Twitter over the weekend, after Trump announced the commutation of a prison sentence awaiting Roger Stone, an aide and ally, arising from Mueller’s work.
Stone, 67 and suspected of being the link between Russian intelligence, WikiLeaks and the president himself, was convicted on counts of lying to Congress, obstruction of justice and witness intimidation. He had been due to report to prison on Tuesday, to serve a 40-month sentence.
Mueller himself spoke out over the weekend, via a column in the Washington Post.
Weissmann agreed with the Republican senator Mitt Romney’s description of an instance of “unprecedented, historic corruption” and advocated that Stone be brought in front of a grand jury. read more…

veteranstoday--2020-07-14--Libya: Tobruk Authorized Egyptian Army’s Intervention, Jihadists Invasion’s Risk for EU

The civil war in Libya is about to become an international conflict that could destabilize not only Africa but the entire basin of the Mediterranean Sea .
This may be very dangerous in particular for Italy and Europe already affected by continuous landings of migrants among which there would be many infiltrated jihadists as highlighted by previous Gospa News reports and also reported by the Egyptian diplomacy to the UN Security Council .
The Tobruk House of Representatives governing Cyrenaica ( eastern Libya around Benghazi ) released a few hours ago an official note reported on Twitter by various analysts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expert Mahmoud Gamal and journalist Mohamed Mansour , in which it « declares that the Egyptian army has the right & authorization to militarily intervene in Libya if necessary , to protect the national security of both Egypt & Libya » .
This occurs when other sources have released videos on the reinforcements sent by the Libyan National Army ( LNA ) of Marshal General Khalifa Haftar , Benghazi military leader , in support of Sirte , the strategic city of the homonymous gulf rich in oil , threatened by the advance of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ support of the Government of National Agreement ( GNA ) which through President Fayez Al Serray controls Tripoli and Tripolitania .
In the past few days two other heavy LNA counter-offensives have occurred after the military successes of the opponents supported by Ankara in a plan not only tolerated but also politically supported by NATO , of which Turkey is the second military force , as candidly admitted by the Italian ambassador to Libya .
General Haftar has blocked the ports of eastern Libya controlled by his army for the umpteenth time to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the Arab media Al Jazeera which is financed by the government of Qatar and therefore secretly supports the intervention of the Jihadists and Turkish troops .
« LNA spokesman Ahmed Mismari on Saturday said in an online statement the country ’ s oilfields and ports are “ closed until the orders of the Libyan people are implemented ” , laying out conditions to lift the blockade – wrote Al Jazeera – Renegade military commander Khalifa Haftar ’ s self-styled Libyan National Army ( LNA ) has said it would maintain a blockade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ National Oil Corp ( NOC ) says has cost the country $ 6.5bn in lost revenue » .
Further , on July 5 , the small LNA air force , equipped with some fighter bombs manufactured in Russia ( Haftar ally like France ) bombed the strategic airport of Al Waitiga , near Tripoli , recaptured a few weeks by the GNA Army and therefore protected by Ankara ’ s HAWK anti-aircraft systems , which were hit in the air raid .
« The situation in Libya remains bad , we continue to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we intend to strengthen the sanctions regime for a better implementation of the United Nations Security Council resolution , which would also increase the effectiveness of our Irini operation » .
This statement was issued by the High Representative of the European Union Josep Borrell at the end of the meeting with the foreign ministers , a few hours before the Government of Tobruk ( Libyan House of Rapresentatives ) issued its press release which opens the doors to the intervention of the Egypt with the risk that Tunisia and Algeria will instead @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , creating a tremendous war scenario at 260 nautical miles from Sicily , leading to Italy and the EU .
« Turkey ’ s unilateral actions , especially in the eastern Mediterranean » with illegal drilling « must end » and there has been a call to Ankara to find « a political solution » for the Libyan crisis « in the spirit of the Berlin process » , he Borrell explained at the end of the meeting with EU foreign ministers .
The Rome declaration is with another tenor : because it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a “ diplomatic ” sense to the close alliance in the field of the war market between Italy and Qatar , the main supporter and financier of the action of the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Libya , .

Just today in Rome the spokesman for Tobruk ’ s parliament Aguila Saleh will meet the Italian authorities in search of desperate mediation after the House of Representatives of Cyrenaica , in the last weeks , had de-legitimized the announcement of Haftar ’ s coup in the hope of finding a peace agreement with Tripoli but only getting a short truce and an even more brutal response from GNA and Turkey troops , supported by Deep State NATO @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

Egyptian Army forces
This occurs when other sources have released videos on the reinforcements sent by the Libyan National Army (LNA) of Marshal General Khalifa Haftar, Benghazi military leader, in support of Sirte, the strategic city of the homonymous gulf rich in oil, threatened by the advance of the mercenary militias employed by Turkey in support of the Government of National Agreement (GNA) which through President Fayez Al Serray controls Tripoli and Tripolitania.
In the past few days two other heavy LNA counter-offensives have occurred after the military successes of the opponents supported by Ankara in a plan not only tolerated but also politically supported by NATO, of which Turkey is the second military force, as candidly admitted by the Italian ambassador to Libya.
General Haftar has blocked the ports of eastern Libya controlled by his army for the umpteenth time to trade in oil, as alarmingly highlighted by the Arab media Al Jazeera which is financed by the government of Qatar and therefore secretly supports the intervention of the Jihadists and Turkish troops.
«LNA spokesman Ahmed Mismari on Saturday said in an online statement the country’s oilfields and ports are “closed until the orders of the Libyan people are implemented”, laying out conditions to lift the blockade – wrote Al Jazeera – Renegade military commander Khalifa Haftar’s self-styled Libyan National Army (LNA) has said it would maintain a blockade on oil production and exports that the National Oil Corp (NOC) says has cost the country $6.5bn in lost revenue».
Further, on July 5, the small LNA air force, equipped with some fighter bombs manufactured in Russia (Haftar ally like France) bombed the strategic airport of Al Waitiga, near Tripoli, recaptured a few weeks by the GNA Army and therefore protected by Ankara’s HAWK anti-aircraft systems, which were hit in the air raid.
The official statement from the Tobruk government authorizing the intervention of the Egyptian army
«The situation in Libya remains bad, we continue to see open violations of the embargo, we intend to strengthen the sanctions regime for a better implementation of the United Nations Security Council resolution, which would also increase the effectiveness of our Irini operation».
This statement was issued by the High Representative of the European Union Josep Borrell at the end of the meeting with the foreign ministers, a few hours before the Government of Tobruk (Libyan House of Rapresentatives) issued its press release which opens the doors to the intervention of the Egypt with the risk that Tunisia and Algeria will instead take sides with the government of Tripoli, creating a tremendous war scenario at 260 nautical miles from Sicily, leading to Italy and the EU.
«Turkey’s unilateral actions, especially in the eastern Mediterranean» with illegal drilling «must end» and there has been a call to Ankara to find «a political solution» for the Libyan crisis «in the spirit of the Berlin process», he Borrell explained at the end of the meeting with EU foreign ministers.
The Rome declaration is with another tenor: because it is in the embarrassing situation of giving a “diplomatic” sense to the close alliance in the field of the war market between Italy and Qatar, the main supporter and financier of the action of the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Libya,. as demonstrated in previous reports.
In particular in the one on the Weapon’s Lobby and the one on terrorists Hayat Tahrir Al Sham (formerly AlNusra – AlQeada) treated in the Italian military hospital in Tripoli.
Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio takes a stand on the situation in Libya. «The Italian geostrategic assets in Libya must be defended with teeth» the minister said in an interview with the newspaper Il Foglio as reported by the Italian Journalism Agency with an implicit reference to the GreenStream pipeline and the ENI extraction platform in Sabrata.
«Our goal has always been to create a comprehensive political solution for the Libyan parties, condemning the use of military action. For this reason, in recent months we have had dialogue as the only tool for political initiative, and to do this we have had to keep the channels of communication open with all the Libyan parties. But this should not be confused with equidistance».

JIHADIST INVASION’S RISK FOR ITALY
What does not seem to worry the unconscious Italian government of Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte (supported by the Democratic Party and by the 5 Star Movement) is the alarm for the landings of migrants, some also positive for Covid-19, which have intensified with the beautiful season and after the reconquest of the strategic port of Sabrata by GNA.

Not all of them will flock en masse to Italy, but it is estimated that in the next few months at least 20,000 migrants are in the hands of human traffickers or who work with slave labor with the aim of collecting money to embark for Italy» reads on Il Giornale.
«Despite the stop of Covid, the end of the siege of Tripoli and the beginning of summer marked a surge in arrivals in our country. To the 8194 registered until yesterday, the 5775 intercepted by the Libyan coastguard from January to the end of June and brought ashore must be added. Last year, in 2019, just 3871 had arrived.

Italian Interior Minister Luciana Lamorgese has announced a trip to Tripoli to meet her counterpart Fathi Bashaga but the risk of a military escalation can jeopardize any slow and cumbersome diplomatic effort due to the illegal situation now created with the arrival of the jihadist factions led by former ISIS and Al Qaeda commanders and paid for by Ankara.
