‘Washington willing to send its sons to die in absurd war’ – Venezuela’s Maduro in open letter to US

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has slammed Washington’s belligerent rhetoric towards his country in an open letter addressed to the American people.

Maduro published an image of the letter on his official Twitter account, saying it would be delivered to the White House, demanding respect for Venezuela’s “inalienable right to peace.“

In the letter, Maduro denounces US President Donald Trump’s aggressive statements against him – in which he has branded Maduro an illegitimate dictator, as well as hinting at military intervention.

They want to invade and intervene in Venezuela – they say, as they said then – in the name of democracy and freedom. But it's not like that. The story about the usurpation of power in Venezuela is as false as the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

Maduro accuses Trump of “disrupting noble dialogue initiatives,” which were promoted by Uruguay and Mexico and backed by the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). They aim for "a peaceful solution and dialogue favorable for Venezuela."

Venezuelans are willing to “continue being business partners” with the US, while politicians in Washington are ready to send their country’s “sons and daughters to die in an absurd war,” Maduro wrote.

The Venezuelan president demanded that the US stop its aggression against Venezuela, including both attempts to “suffocate our economy” and “the serious and dangerous threats of military intervention.” He signed off with the phrase “Long live the people of America!”

The Trump administration has been leading calls for Maduro to be overthrown, recognizing opposition leader Juan Guaido as the country’s “legitimate” leader. It was joined in these calls by a number of European nations. Several other countries – including Russia and Turkey – are backing Maduro as the legitimately elected president, and have denounced Washington’s actions as attempts to foment a coup.

New attack on Karl Marx – grave in London ‘damaged beyond repair’ in hammer attack

A memorial to the Father of Communism – Karl Marx – in London has been attacked with a hammer and ‘will never be the same again’, a charity has said.

The marble plaque at Highgate cemetery which carries Marx’s name, along with his wife and grandson, had been chipped by a blunt instrument likely to have been a hammer.

The Friends of Highgate Cemetery Trust, who run the cemetery in north London, said the monument was hit over in what looked like ‘a deliberate attack on the memory of Karl Marx himself’.

Ian Dungavell, the trust’s chief executive, said: “His name has been singled out, although the person wasn’t particularly coordinated.”

The ‘deliberate and sustained attack‘ on the Grade I-listed monument, which puts it on a par with the most important buildings in the country, was “very upsetting”, he said. “It will never be the same again, and will bear those battle scars for the future.”

The monument is owned by the Marx Grave Trust, which is represented by the Marx Memorial Library in Clerkenwell, which will make any decisions about future repairs, Mr Dungavell said.

But he added that the monument’s Grade I-listing means ‘you don’t rush in to do these things quickly’.

‘We will be seeking specialist advice.’

A Met Police spokesman said: “Police were called to reports of criminal damage to a memorial in Highgate Cemetery, N6. No arrests have been made. Initial inquiries have been completed and at this stage the investigation has been closed. If any further information comes to light, this will be investigated accordingly.”

NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo Defends Radical Abortion Law: ‘I Am a Former Altar Boy’

Democrat Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York defended himself against criticism that he rejected his self-proclaimed Catholic faith by signing into law a bill that allows abortion up until birth, asserting, “I was educated in religious schools, and I am a former altar boy.”

In an op-ed in the New York Times, Cuomo insisted, “My Roman Catholic values are my personal values. The decisions I choose to make in my life, or in counseling my daughters, are based on my personal moral and religious beliefs.”

“My oath of office is to the Constitutions of the United States and of the State of New York – not to the Catholic Church,” the governor said.

Foreigners Make Up 80 Percent of Swiss Prison Inmates

The number of prisoners in Switzerland has soared in the last 30 years with foreigners now accounting for 80 per cent of the prison population, according to the Swiss Federal Statistical Office.

The study shows the rate of incarceration has gone from 72 per 100,000 residents in 1988 to 82 in 2017, Radio Télévision Suisse reports.

During the 30-year period, Switzerland saw its prison population increase from 4,621 to 6,907, a 50 per cent increase overall.

In the first decade from 1988 to 1998, Swiss citizens made up around 31 per cent of the prisoners compared to 28 per cent who were foreigners living in Switzerland and 41 per cent who were foreigners residing overseas. In 1989, Swiss citizens made up as much as 44 per cent of prisoners.

During the next two decades, the number of Swiss citizen prisoners fell to only 20 per cent, with foreigners residing in Switzerland going up to 37 per cent in the second decade and back down to 28 per cent in the third.

Foreign prisoners who live overseas rapidly grew in the third decade to where they now account for over half of the prisoners in the Swiss prison system.

The statistics come only months after it was revealed that Switzerland had deported 1,000 migrant criminals in 2017, including 348 from the Balkan region and 250 from Africa.

The trend also mirrors other European countries which have seen high rates of crime in which foreign nationals are often suspects.

In Germany, certain cities such as Berlin have released statistics showing that up to half of the crimes committed in the city involve foreign suspects. In some specific crimes, foreigners were shown to be vastly overrepresented including heroin trafficking where migrants made up 85 per cent of suspects in 2016 in the German capital.

In the Austrian capital of Vienna, the disparity between the crime rate of natives and migrants is even starker with foreigners making up more than half of all the suspects in crimes, according to a report released last August.

US objects to UN move on Israeli action in Hebron

Kuwait and Indonesia urged the U.N. Security Council on Feb. 6 to call for protection of Palestinians following Israel’s decision to suspend an international observer mission in Hebron, where hundreds of hard-line Jewish settlers live alongside more than 200,000 Palestinians, but diplomats said the United States objected.

The two predominantly Muslim nations on the council called closed-door discussions on the Israeli announcement and then circulated a draft press statement that would recognize the mission’s “efforts to foster calm in a highly sensitive area and fragile situation on the ground.” But the U.S., Israel’s closest ally, rejected the proposed statement, diplomats said, speaking on condition of anonymity because consultations were private.

The Temporary International Presence in Hebron was established in 1994 following Israeli settler Baruch Goldstein’s massacre of 29 worshippers at the Ibrahimi Mosque in the West Bank city that triggered riots across Palestinian areas. The mosque is located at the site that is also revered by Jews as the Tomb of the Patriarchs.

Indonesia’s U.N. ambassador, Dian Djani, told reporters that he and Kuwaiti Ambassador Mansour Al-Otaibi brought up Israel’s action because they don’t want to see a repetition of the 1994 incident and want “to make sure the situation that is already fragile and tense … is not going to worsen.”

A Security Council resolution adopted in March 1994 strongly condemned the Hebron massacre and called for measures to be taken to guarantee the safety and protection of Palestinian civilians, which led to the monitoring mission. In its latest form, Norway, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland and Turkey provided unarmed observers and funded the mission in Hebron.

Al-Otaibi said there was “overwhelming support” for an expression of concern that Israel’s action might exacerbate the situation on the ground, saying the mission “was like a preventative tool.”

Ambassador Anatolio Ndong Mba of Equatorial Guinea, the current council president, signaled differences among council members immediately after the meeting, where the U.S. reportedly said Israel had a right not to renew the temporary mission.

Ndong Mba said he had been authorized to inform the Israeli and Palestinian ambassadors about the meeting and to discuss a proposed Security Council visit to the territory that the Palestinians claim for a future independent state.

Riyad Mansour, the Palestinian ambassador at the U.N., stressed that “it is the duty of the Security Council on the basis of the resolutions” to ensure the protection of Palestinian civilians and said he looked forward to meeting with Ndong Mba “as quickly as possible.”

He said the Palestinians will react to a Security Council visit “in the most positive way.”

But Al-Otaibi told reporters that council visits require approval by all 15 members as well as the countries involved, so the U.S. and Israel would have to give a green light.

Mansour said it was premature to say whether the trip would go ahead.

“The positive thing is that there is an agreement, an authorization to the president of the Security Council to begin the process of consultation on that issue,” he said. “Let us give it time, with a positive expectation that it might happen.”

Is Your Thinking Your Own – Or Someone Else’s?

We live in a world where everything is crooked – lies masquerade as truth and it’s hard to find a straight path…. There seems to be no limit to the madness going on around us – ethics, morals, common sense and compassion have been thrown under the bus of profit. In this 21st century, hate and division are rampant in every level of society. Millions of people have flipped their humanity switch to off, and unplugged from the heart – we are a divided and manic species.

Keeping Us Off Balance

Many people no longer watch tv or mainstream news – they are aware of the fabricated narrative put out by the media…the forty percent fear porn and programming, thirty percent sports and entertainment, twenty percent intrigue, nine percent half-truths and one percent a cuddly bunny feel good story.

The mass media is all about controlling our thinking, and has become the propaganda marketing project for the psychopaths that run the world. The kaleidoscope of fake news and disinformation projected into our minds is designed to affect us emotionally: to make us afraid of a made up bogeymen, a pandemic that’s just around the corner – or an invasion by the Russians or Chinese. This fear based propaganda keeps us in a state of insecurity and we eventually turn on each other – race, religion, class, any person or group/nation that runs a different programme presents a threat to an unbalanced mind.

Our minds are being manipulated by a whole host of ‘occult fixers’ that hide behind the puppet politicians. Their end-game is world domination and absolute control over the hive mind of the worker bees called humanity….and they have moved slowly and deliberately through the shadowed centuries towards their global goal.

Is it any wonder, that in today’s ‘whirled’ we become confused and unable to keep up with- or understand, the rapidly changing and contrary nature of the political climate we live in.

Adam Schiff’s collusion with oligarch, Ukrainian arms dealer, exposed

Adam Schiff’s Russia stupidity can be easily explained by examining his Ukrainian connection.

What drives Adam Schiff’s never ending Russia hysteria?

When in doubt follow the money. Congressman Schiff’s well documented Putin obsession may have something to do with his billionaire, military complex, oligarch patron from Ukraine.

In a Zerohedge post yesterday, chronicling the latest Adam Schiff idiocy, where the Democrat Congressman spoke to a crowd at the University of Pennsylvania, declaring Russian ads promoted the Second Amendment during the 2016 election “so we will kill each other” commenter AlaricBalth linked some interesting information on Schiff’s underlying motivation behind his Russia hysteria…

Adam Schiff is an owned hatchet man of Ukrainian arms dealer Igor Pasternak. Schiff’s anti-Russian narrative is carefully orchestrated by his Ukrainian handlers

“TASTE OF UKRAINE RECEPTIONfor Adam Schiff”

http://politicalpartytime.org/party/34974/

Pasternak, who was raised and educated in Ukraine before immigrating to the United States, is a passionate promoter of Ukrainian culture and business. He has been active in both Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. to support increased bilateral ties between the two countries and has been especially active building awareness of Ukraine’s strategic economic importance among Members of Congress. Since political protests broke out across Ukraine in late 2013, Pasternak has worked to personally inform and educate Members of Congress about the geostrategic importance of Ukraine to European and US security.

Jack Posobiec tweeted in March 2017 on Schiff’s connection to Pasternak and George Soros…

US Military Finally Sets Target Date For "Full Withdrawal" From Syria

Here it is finally. The time has arrived for the fabled, confused and precarious US troop withdrawal from Syria despite the best efforts of neocons and interventionistas to permanently stall and alter course, per a new Wall Street Journal report that dropped late in the day Thursday: "the military plans to pull a significant portion of its forces out by mid-March, with a full withdrawal coming by the end of April."

But you might be forgiven for remaining skeptical with a "believe it when I see it" approach, as President Trump first announced a "rapid withdrawal" on Dec. 19 which quickly became "no timeline" in the weeks that followed — though it depended on who in the administration or Pentagon was asked — with many determined to quash Trump's prior campaign promises of "bring our boys home." But now the WSJ speaks with a new confidence that this time it's for real:

The U.S. military is preparing to pull all American forces out of Syria by the end of April, even though the Trump administration has yet to come up with a plan to protect its Kurdish partners from attack when they leave, current and former U.S. officials said.

Fascinating animation shows every single bomb the US-led coalition has dropped on ISIS

Animation shows all 32,000 bombs dropped on ISIS territory in two-year period

Location of every single air strike dropped by US-led coalition in Iraq and Syria

Graphic documents aerial assaults on ISIS from August 2014 to December 2018

A fascinating new video has documented every bomb dropped on Islamic State by the US-led coalition forces.

The animation shows the location of every single air strike in Iraq and Syria between August 2014 and December 2018.

All 32,000 bombs dropped have been plotted and marked on a graphic, showing where the strikes targeted during the fiercest periods of aerial bombardment.

The graphic shows that the first 185 air strikes, up until September 22, 2014, were dropped in Iraq, but by October 2, 84 strikes were made on Syrian land.

After a year of aerial bombardment a total of 3,930 bombs were dropped in Iraq and 2,425 on Syria.

The nearly two-minute clip condenses all the US-led alliance strikes across both countries.

It includes strikes during key battles of the offensive to clear ISIS from Iraq and Syria, such as the Battle of Mosul in October 2016 and in June the following year the bloody Battle for Raqqa - the de facto capital of ISIS-held territory.

The battle for Mosul was a huge military operation to recapture Iraq's second largest city, which lasted from November 2016 to January 2017.

By the time Iraqi government forces had recaptured the city, much of the historic city's buildings and infrastructure was destroyed, with ISIS sabotaging areas as its forces fled.

The Battle for Raqqa was named the 'Great Battle' due to the strategic significance of city, with as many as 500 US special forces troops operating in support of the campaign.

The clip also shows the siege of Kobane in September 2014, which saw ISIS militants try to capture the city.

The assaults led to a wave of some 500,000 displaced Kurds fleeing across the border to neighbouring Turkey.

In January 2015 US-backed forced including the YPG, the Free Syrian Army and the Peshmerga, along with US air strikes began to recapture the city.
