Donald
Trump's transition from a flashy businessman and reality TV star to the
President of the United States is keeping the security services busy.
A
no-fly zone was imposed over his home and workplace, Trump Tower, on Fifth
Avenue in New York on November 9.
The
Federal Aviation Administration edict bans any aircraft in a two mile radius
within 3,000ft of the 58-story building, which was the setting of the NBC
television show The Apprentice and is not only Trump's main residence but is
also a tourist hotspot.
he
flight ban will re-route many helicopter tours of the city, limit the work of
media helicopters as well as re-routing commercial aircraft. Drones are also
banned
Military,
police emergency and secret service flights are exempt from the ban.
Mashable reports that the change could cause flight delays out
of LaGuardia Airport.
Flights
are also limited over Vice President Mike Pence's Indianapolis home.
The
no-fly zone will be in play until Trump's inauguration on Friday 20 January,
2017, when he will move into the White House.
Meanwhile,
on the ground, police officers have helped to install concrete barriers around
the Tower.
A
row of sanitation trucks filled with sand have been acting as barricades along
Fifth Avenue between 56th and 57th streets since Monday in order to protect the
tower against car bombs.
A no-fly
zone has been imposed around Trump Tower, on Fifth Avenue, New York
Sources said one
lane of traffic that passes the Tower is expected to remain closed to prevent
car bomb attacks.
An NYPD checkpoint
is also in operation outside the building while 56th street between Fifth
and Madison is closed to traffic.
On Thursday,
heavily-armed officers could be seen around the president-elect's home while
Trump himself visited the White House.
Trump and Melania,
departed from LaGuardia airport in New York at 9.36am on his personal aircraft
and arrived at Ronald Reagan National Airport just after 10.30am.
Following the
meeting, Obama said that he had an 'excellent conversation' with Trump.
Trump's son-in-law,
Jared Kushner, owner of the New York Observer and a senior adviser to the
president-elect's campaign, was also in tow.
People who work and
live inside Trump Tower will also now be vetted by the Secret Service,
the New York Daily News reports.
And elevator routes
will also be altered to stop people accessing Trump's personal floors.
'Obviously, Trump
Tower is not like a house in the suburbs or the country. It's a tourist
location, with businesses and apartments inside, people coming in and out at
all hours,' a source told the New York Daily News.
The glass building
is one of New York's most visited attractions since its completion in
1983.
If Hillary Clinton
had won the election, these additional security
measures would not have been needed as her Chappaqua home is already deemed
safe from when it acted as a presidential home for husband Bill.
Trump first received
a Secret Service detail after requesting one in November 2015.
Clinton already had
protection because of her status as a former first lady.
When Trump and his
family move into The White House in January, 10-year-old Barron Trump will be
the youngest presidential son to reside in the executive mansion since John F.
Kennedy, Jr.
The White House has
been home to only presidential daughters since JFK, Jr., whose father was
assassinated just before his 3rd birthday in 1963.
Kennedy's son broke
a long drought of boys living in The White House. He was the first since
Quentin and Archie Roosevelt lived there beginning in 1901.
Outside Trump Tower
on Thursday, protesters gathered with signs reading 'Dump Trump'.
At least 30 people
were arrested when cops cracked down on twin demonstrations in Columbus Circle
and at Trump Tower.
As many as 7,500
protesters were believed to have been split between the two locations, chanting
'Black Lives Matter' and 'Donald Trump, go away, racist, sexist, anti-gay.'
Cher and Madonna
were among the NYC protesters, with Cher telling one supporter they needed to
'fight.'
It wasn't just New
York that saw violence break out overnight. Tens of thousands of people across
the country marched against the President-elect before angry mobs attacked
police, started fires and shut down highways.
The streets of
downtown Oakland in California were choked with smoke Thursday as police
launched tear gas and protesters lit fires, in what became by some distance the
most violent of the many protests.
More than 6,000
protesters were seen on the streets of Oakland with an initially peaceful march
down a cop-lined street turning nasty after some protesters threw bottles at
officers and torched a police car. An office block was also attacked, daubed
with 'f*** Trump' and 'kill Trump' graffiti and then set alight.
And thousands more
filled streets in Los Angeles before taking over the 110 Freeway while other
protesters gathered outside City Hall, lighting fires and waving Trump heads on
sticks. There were 14 arrests.
Trump's poll-defying
win has sparked a wave of similar rallies in Chicago, Illinois; Portland,
Oregon; and San Francisco, California, among many others.
Outside the White
House, a candlelit vigil was being held in protest against Mr Trump's
inflammatory and divisive brand of politics. But even peaceful protests in that
city went awry, with at least one protester being bundled into the back of a
van by the Secret Service.
In another step
towards Trump taking office, his transition team has launched a new website and
Twitter account for him.
Visitors to
greatagain.gov can find information on Trump's polices as well as biographical
information about the Republican.
The website also
includes a notice that it's looking to fill 4,000 slots for presidential
appointees, but doesn't have instructions on how to apply for positions.
The transition
team's Twitter account, @transition2017, posted its first tweet Wednesday
night. It reads: 'Working together, we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding
our nation and renewing the American dream.'
New Jersey Gov.
Chris Christie is leading Trump's transition team.
And if
these people keep rioting we'll have Marshall law. It's all scripted and if
that happens there certainly won't be an inauguration. Is this a color
Revolution as suggested by Wayne Madsen in his article titled "George Soros and his Sorosite
minions wasted no time in launching their “color revolution” for the
United States. " Or is it just
politics as suggested by Stephen Cohen during his interview on RT.
WayneMadsen states in his article the numerous events where a color revolution has
taken place around the world and suggests that it is now happening here in the
US.
In the
interview with Stephen Cohen he explains that the Electoral College can only be
abolished by a Constitutional Amendment and though he glossed over how the
Electoral College became a part of the Constitution due to the fact that the
Slave Owner States felt they were less represented compared to the heavily
populated northern states, I would like to add, that had those Slave owners
counted their total population, including the millions of Africans they would
have had a fighting chance, but I digress.
When I
was in school, I attended catholic school thru to college, they would always
make us feel bad about not being observant and not asking questions when we
were in class. Of course, being a student in a Catholic Institution that was
and probably still is clearly racist, me, as a young person didn't see it as
racist when our all educators were white
nuns and priests. I simply took it to heart and challenged myself to be able to
come up with a question, about anything I was being taught. I remember sitting
in class being the only one with my hand up to ask a question. When I couldn't
think of one immediately, I would rack my brain until I did. Over time, I
became my teachers favorite student for my participation in class, but also I
became my teacher's most feared student. They saw me question almost
everything.
To this
day, I remember asking Sister Whatever her name was…. How is the electoral
college fair? We were studying American Government in 11th grade and I remember
her face, that day, where I was sitting in class and her response. She had
spent the entire class parroting how wonderful Democracy was and how everyone
had the right to vote and the vote was their voice in the electoral process,
one vote, one voice.
But when
we got to the electoral college she was flabbergasted that I would question its
authenticity and now that I look back on it, since she too was probably as
brainwashed as the rest of us, she herself, didn't even know it had to do with
the Southern Slave Owners wanting to get a fair chance at voting. Heck, I just
found that out during my adult life myself. Which just shows to go you that
what we learn in school as so -called history, politics, economics, etc. are
really all parroting what somebody told them that somebody told them and so on.
The debate over the electoral college is long
overdue. It has no relevance in today's society and does tend to give the edge
where it should not. It overrides the popular vote but has only been seriously
contested in the 2000 election, which when presented before the Supreme court,
they went with the Electoral College vote that gave us four years of GW Bush.
Lord Have mercy.
Do they
really want the electoral voters to go rogue? Do they want to set this
precedent? Are they really ready for the aftermath of that turn of events? Are
they really ready for a Constitutional Amendment that will abolish the
Electoral College and have one man/one vote. If in the final analysis they can
convince Florida to change their vote to Hillary, then the constitution will
certainly be in crisis. Like in 2008 when they elected Obama with little
or no experience and a mysterious background.
If they
do that, how does that look? Go single out one state to change its vote? What
about the other states that went Republic but had to give their vote to the
Dems. What about the one man one vote?
I really
doubt that will happen, that's a blatant interference with the electoral
process. The Clinton's have money and they can buy some folks off, but even if
they did a recount it would expose election fraud on both sides but moreso with
the Clinton campaign and the DNC and not to mention Wikileaks where even the
mainstream media is referring to.
These
young people are not informed voters. They are all puppets in the hands of the
puppet masters who rule the leaders and the followers. They really need to take
a course in US Government that analyses it authenticity and its viability. They
need to see who really creates policy. They need to take the blinders off and
face the fact that one man/one vote means nothing after the election when they
have corporate lobbyist who make 6 figures lobbying for the bankers and
corporations for the purpose of getting policies enacted that will be in their
best interests.
Look
around. How many times have you heard people complain about what they DID NOT
VOTE FOR, but what is happening anyway. Why? Because one man/one vote does not
add up to cash in the bank accounts of the elected officials. One lobbyist
does….
The electoral
process is an essential part of "the consent of the governed" defined
by Rousseau. In almost all of the so-called democratic countries, however, the
important act of voting to elect the people's representatives has become an
exercise in futility. Today politicians, who still have the audacity to call
themselves public servants, are the obedient executors of the trans-national
global corporate elite. These politicians are actors who are cast to perform in
opaque screenplays written by top corporate power brokers and marketed to the
public like products. In this sad state of affairs that passes for democracy,
citizens have become blind consumers of products, which are political
figureheads working for global corporate interests. For any organism to remain
healthy, it must be able to excrete. The same applies to our collective social
body, but instead of regularly eliminating our political residue and flushing
it away, we recycle it. http://www.opednews.com/articles/The-Illusion-of-Democracy-by-Gilbert-Mercier-150304-357.html
I must
admit that things are shifting. There is infighting among the elite. The Soros
gang against the Kissinger gang. Each wanting to control the Universe.
Both
reptilian.
Fighting
over the planet like their Ancestors have been doing for millennia.
People
are so divided as well.
I am
working on a reading on this.
Some say
he will be assassinated or die after a couple years in office.
Hillary
is on her deathbed and has proven more of a liability than an asset to her
handlers with all her scandals exposed.
Trump
will have to bite the bullet, go along to get along and part of that is to
pardon Hillary.
Obama
could Pardon her but that would be an admission of guilt.
If Trump
does that will be an olive branch to her supporters but a green light to others
in the hidden cabal of criminality and pedophilia.
The
Powers that shouldn't be have gotten themselves in a cross-hairs of Biblical
proportions and the rest of us just want to have a decent life, feed and
educate our families, have clean air and fresh water, non GMO foods and simple
moments with nature.

Massive Anti-Trump Protest Planned for

George Soros and his
Sorosite minions wasted no time in launching their “color
revolution” for the United States.by Wayne Madsen Report
Ironically,
it is the United States that championed Soros’s “color revolutions” in Ukraine
(twice), Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Iran, China, and countries in the Middle
East and North Africa. Now, thanks to the billionaire hedge fund tycoon, a
color revolution is being launched on the streets of the United States.
In the rush for inclusion in
America, the election of the first Black President represented the apex of
success to some. The folly of that has fallen to the level that Blacks’
major political pursuit is maintenance of the status quo and Obama as
President. In their moves to be mainstream, Blacks now eagerly accept
second-class American status. If you look at any social index, Blacks have much
to complain about. Not just this Democratic administration but most political
administrations over the years have ignored Blacks and their political needs.
Black activists must be brainwashed or blind not to see legacies of institutional
racism and discrimination in housing, education, policing, criminal justice and
employment that continue under Obama’s presidency. The average African-American
income is $33,916, compared with $54,920 for Whites. Conservative Republican
Congressman Allen West offers a different slant on "who is brainwashing
whom" by citing Black Americans’ disregard of the 16.7% unemployment rate
in Black communities, 20% unemployment rate for Black adult males and 45%
unemployment for Black teenagers under the Obama administration.
"The
Illusion of Democracy" is a more accurate history of the United States
since the coup of 1963, when President Kennedy was executed in Dealey Plaza.
This sequel focuses on the political side. It explains Hegelian Principles and
how our puppet masters create conflict to increase their wealth and power while
controlling the media through Operation Mockingbird. It connects the dots of
all major false flag events to prove this massive deception has been
intentionally engineered to subjugate our nation to indentured servitude in a
feudal system controlled by wealthy oligarchs. This book was written at a high
school level with those students in mind. It is perfect for high school
classes, college courses, or the average reader at home who is curious about
what went wrong over the past generation which killed the American Dream.

Will President Obama pardon Hillary
Clinton of all the various criminal acts she has been accused of during
the 2016 election? Can the White House pardon Hillary before an indictment? If
Obama takes no action, is Hillary Clinton guilty of treason as some claim? If
so, will Donald Trump prosecute Hillary and order the FBI to have Hillary
arrested?
NB Commentary: This is a well researched
article with links. A must read for anyone who is interested in what is really
going on with the Selection of Hillary Clinton for the next President of the
US. I have included direct links listed in this article at the bottom along
with pics and videos.
"God
has not been preparing the English-speaking and Teutonic peoples for a thousand
years for nothing but vain and idle self-contemplation and self-admiration. . .
. He has made us adept in government that we may administer government among
savage and senile peoples.”—
Senator Albert J. Beveridge of Indiana, during the US annexation of the
Philippines, 1898.
A
grotesque power-fest at the Democratic Party Convention in Philadelphia left
me
feeling about Hillary Clinton the way P. G. Wodehouse’s Bertie Wooster felt
about his Aunt Agatha—“the one who chews broken bottles and kills rats with her
teeth.” There is something disquieting and secretively lascivious about her
open-mouthed cackle. She doesn't so much laugh as lusts. She reminded me, too,
of the mythical basilisk in the bestiary at the convention—the queen among the
serpents. The basilisk of legend, wearing a king’s crown on his head, is only
twelve-fingers long, but his venom withers all living plants in his wake. His
gaze is enough to kill, according to Pliny the Elder. Only the droppings of a
weasel have the potent odor to kill him, but it didn't work with this basilisk.
Her weasel endorsed her, embraced her, kissed her. His odor and her venom
neutralized each other and merged into the unity party of the Serpent and the
Weasel.
Her party’s opponent is Charybdis, “a huge bladder of a
creature whose face was all mouth and whose arms and legs were flippers”
according to Jorge Luis Borges’ Book of Imaginary Beings (1957).
As if that were not enough, this Charybdis is reputed to be the troll of a
foreign monster, Mandrake, the Demon in the Kremlin. Neither the basilisk’s
party nor Charybdis’ own party, a sort of mollusk like the Kraken, likes him.
See here and here.
I’m
raving, you say? This is the Age of Empire, and empire breeds monsters. We live
with them now. Imperialism is our political and economic reality. Nothing
material or substantial can be reformed within this colossal juggernaut. Yet,
we continue to pretend that this has no bearing on our lives. In 2003 alone,
the Iraq invasion cost $60 billion, three times the yearly budget for
education, yet, we wonder why schools are starving for funds. When we clamor
for reforms without mentioning imperialism, it is as if we were told we would
be dead in three weeks and reacted by scheduling an appointment for a facelift.
A
facelift is exactly what elections have produced in the last two decades. Bill
Clinton’s Nero, saxophone in lieu of harp; George Bush’s Claudius, malapropisms
for stutters; Obama’s Titus, fortunate son, charm and treachery—they are all
faces of imperialism, exceptionalism, hegemony, capital penetration,
globalization, neoliberal recolonization, “full spectrum dominance,”
“rebalance.” They are the CEOs of international capitalism in the White House.
Their charge is to do away with the sovereignty of nations, economically when
possible, militarily when necessary. They destabilize and destroy whole
countries through open, economic, proxy, or clandestine wars; they organize and
train terrorist organizations; they foment regime change; they privatize the public
wealth; they impose deadly economic reforms on countries they in debt in
perpetuity; they launch economic sanctions, often in tandem or in the run-up to
war. The goal they serve is the domination of the planet to extract resources,
secure markets, and depress wages. In Haiti, workers are paid 62 cents per
hour. Why would any sane investor hire an American worker for $7 per hour when
a Haitian, whose dependent country has stripped him/her of all workers’
protection rights, works for pennies?
We are
the Lotus Eaters, if we don’t know the cost and suffering of imperialism.
In
this predatory process, the masters of the world—the economic elite—have
amassed mountains of money over tree decades, and are desperate for
“opportunities” for investment. They know that money must move, or it dies. At
this stage of disinvestment in industrialization in the capitalist centers
because of diminished returns, money becomes the chief export commodity. To
secure astronomical returns, lands and resources that belong to other people
must be seized and controlled. To achieve this goal, they need a strong,
autocratic, and authoritarian state and an appointed dictator. An imperator, head of the army, whose rule is
characterized by weak legislative and judicial branches.
Ruthless,
ambitious, violent, and conniving, Hillary Clinton’s Roman imperial analog is
Agrippina, Nero’s mother and Claudius’ niece and murderous wife. Her ferocious
chemistry makes her kindred by choice to the ferocity of the empire. The two
are bound by “elective affinities”– Die
Wahlverwandtschaften (1809) of Goethe’s third novel, which examines the
possibility that human passions are ruled by chemical affinities , the
preference of one substance for another. I am convinced that the imperial
candidate with the most affinities with the ruling elite is Hillary Clinton. If
Donald Trump is sincere in saying he wants peace with Russia, he would have to
be a Titan to reverse a centenary robotic American foreign policy by 360
degrees. That would go against all the laws of political motion, including
inertia, which were set down at the birth of the United States. The prize was
always to be fabled Eurasia—“he who controls Eurasia controls the world,” wrote
that other cobra-eyed basilisk, Zbigniew Kazimierz Brzezinsk, the veteran
Zbiggus Dickus of foreign lunacy at the State Department and the NSA.
And so
this woman, the Agrippina on the Potomac, will sit behind the “grand
chessboard,” playing with human pawns. She will make a good empress, even
though less than 40 percent of the country’s voters consider her “trustworthy.”
But the people’s trust is irrelevant. They are themselves untrustworthy. Having
come out from under the spell of “charming” Obama to realize that he was a
magician’s trick, the people are spinning off center—the “extreme center,” as
Tariq Ali wittily calls it. The people need whipping back into the herd. For
that, a virago will do. She will ride rough-shod with Sin and Death, the moral
allies of the empire, over hurdles of sovereignties and international law. She
will further ravish the already enfeebled Constitution before eating it whole
because the inevitable cost of an expansionist foreign policy is the loss of
economic and political freedom at home.
They all trust her. She has affinities
with them all.
The Financiers
The
financial empire trusts Hillary Clinton. Top mega-financiers and hedge fund
founders and managers who have contributed to her campaign since March 2015
include: George Soros, hedge-fund billionaire, $7 million; Haim Saban, Israeli
hawk and entertainment mogul, $5 million; James Simon, founder, Renaissance
Technologies, hedge fund billionaire and former code-breaker for the military,
$ 3.5 million; Herbert Sandler, founder of Golden West Financial Corporation,
the California savings and loan enterprise; Donald Sussman, hedge-fund manager,
$2.5 million.
There
was no way that the new world order of financial monopoly capitalism would
consider for CEO of the neoliberal empire someone like Bernie Sanders, not
because he was “progressive” but because he was “regressive,” and in their view
no doubt an unrealistic fantasist. The idea of bringing back the New Deal, a
liberal order they had been overthrowing since the 1980s, must have had them
belly-laughing in private, but they saw no harm so long as the senator from
Vermont fed the illusion in the people that capitalism could be reformed and
become a good thing. Ditto for Donald Trump: his regression consists of
offering the people another fantasy, a return to a long gone Fordist America,
the industrial powerhouse of the planet, in which American workers were the
“aristocrats” of labor. At one point in history, Detroit was the capital of
this aristocracy, the best-paid white workers in the world. Thus, both
candidates offer a spectacle to the voters of a quarrel with their respective
parties, but not with their parties’ de-facto bi-partisan pursuit of economic
world supremacy. All the same they were useful. They helped to deflect,
diffuse, confuse, and veil that stark, existential reality that is the cause of
our woes and those of the planet: American economic and military expansion—the
weasel more so than Charybdis.
Hillary
Clinton is not a retro-fantasist, apart from being a fantasist of the
neoliberal order. Her fantasy is their fantasy. Thus they back her.
The Liberal Humanitarian Carnivores
The
liberal humanitarians trust Hillary’s exemplary ability to sell a war crime as
a service to humanity.
The modern idea of “humanitarian war” is as old as
Columbus; as old as the conquistadores. White, civilized Europeans, arriving in the “New
World,” killed “savages” in order to civilize whoever survived. And then worked
them to death and took their lands. In that tradition, the modern liberal
humanitarian must be a flesh-eater. “A liberal society cannot be defended by
herbivores. We need carnivores to save us,” wrote Michael Ignatieff, former
Professor of Human Rights Policy at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, in
a New York Times magazine op-ed piece, May 2, 2004. There is no need to recite
the litany of Hillary Clinton’s bloody deeds since 1990. Gary Leupp covers them
comprehensively in a 2015 CounterPunch article but for carnivorism, who can forget her
maenad-possessed laughter on watching the tearing apart of Qaddafi’s flesh on
video—a scene reminiscent of Euripides’ tragedy, “The Bacchae”?
Bill
Clinton’s administration in the 1990s disemboweled Yugoslavia on humanitarian
grounds, after portraying it as the resurgence of the genocidal Third Reich and
its president, Slobodan Milosevic, as the new Hitler. Milosevic, by the way,
has just been exonerated of all crimes for which Clinton’s kangaroo
International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia had formerly condemned him. In
2003, casting her vote for the invasion of Iraq, Hillary Clinton cited the
persecution of Milosevic as the example to follow for removing Saddam Hussein.
It’s worth listening to her self-assurance in demonizing a man she, and Bill
Clinton’s administration, knew to be innocent of the charges—knew because they trumped them up:
"We and
our NATO allies did not depose Mr. Milosevic, who was responsible for more than
a quarter of a million people being killed in the 1990s. Instead, by stopping
his aggression in Bosnia and Kosovo, and keeping on the tough sanctions, we
created the conditions in which his own people threw him out and led to his
being in the dock being tried for war crimes as we speak."
But
Bill Clinton didn’t just scrap Yugoslavia; he junked international law by
removing from the Security Council the legal monopoly on authorizing war. He
set a precedent in the Kosovo War by claiming Responsibility to Protect (R2P),
which gives humanitarian intervention the pseudo-legal means to overthrow a
sovereign state. The UN Charter specifically disallows humanitarian
intervention for a very good reason: it was that responsibility Hitler’s rogue
regime claimed for invading Poland—the protection of German minorities—to start
WW II.
Never
mind. The Kosovo precedent opened the gates to all the “humanitarian” wars that
followed, including Hillary Clinton’s war on Libya in 2009, consistent with her
approval of her husband’s intervention in Kosovo. During a meeting with Code
Pink on 6 March 2003 at the US Capitol, defending her vote in favor of
attacking Iraq, Senator Clinton applauded her husband’s war in Kosovo, claiming
that he saved Kosovar Albanian from ethnic cleansing—a lie—while commending his
initiative to go it alone, without the “international community’s” consent:
"With
respect to whose responsibility it is to disarm Saddam Hussein, I do not
believe that given the attitudes of many people in the world community today
that there would be a willingness to take on very difficult problems were it
not for United States leadership. And I am talking specifically about
what had to be done in Bosnia and Kosovo, where my husband could not get a
Security Council resolution to save the Kosovar Albanians from ethnic
cleansing. And we did it alone as the United States, and we had to do it
alone. It would have been far preferable if the Russians and others had
agreed to do it through the United Nations — they would not. I’m happy
that, in the face of such horrible suffering, we did act."
She’s
praising here her husband’s international crime, the interference with a
country’s sovereignty for fictional humanitarian reasons. No, the goal of the
war in Kosovo was not ethnic defense (Bill Clinton’s policy throughout the 90s
in the former Yugoslavia was to foment and prey on ethnic anarchy) but the
expansionist penetration of a foreign territory and the construction of one of
the largest military bases in Europe, at Camp Bondsteel, costing the American
people a good chunk of social services—possibly, his welfare “reform,” for
example.
Liberal
humanitarian warmongers peddle the ludicrous claim that “America is the
essential country” (Madeleine Albright) for safeguarding liberal democracy
throughout the world, sublimely indifferent to the evidence that the world
can’t wait to get America’s essentialism off its back. Hillary Clinton’s
belligerent foreign policy is notorious. She has promised to bomb Iran. She has
managed and supervised the destruction of Libya. She has organized the coups in
Paraguay and Honduras. Her neo-con team at the State Department funded and
organized the coup in Ukraine, Nazified its political, military, and cultural
life, triggering a civil war (while calling Putin “Hitler”).
HRC-Syria Policy
There’s no reason to believe that her carnivorous
humanitarian resources have been depleted since then. While Secretary of State
for Obama, she authorized the sale
of weapons to Qatar that she knew would go
to the Libyan rebels to topple Qaddafi and then go to Syria to arm al Qaeda to
overthrow Assad. She denied any involvement under oath. In an exclusive
interview with The Telegraph,
her campaign foreign policy adviser, Jeremy Bash, former Chief of Staff at the
Pentagon and CIA, said that she would work to get President Assad “out of
there”:
Julian Assange says “1,700 emails in Hillary Clinton’s collection” proves she sold weapons to ISIS in Syria.
"A Clinton administration will not shrink from making
clear to the world exactly what the Assad regime is. It is a murderous
regime that
violates human rights; that has violated
international law; used chemical weapons against his own people; has killed
hundreds of thousands of people, including tens of thousands of children.
If
Assad is as guilty as she was sure at the time Milosevic was, we’re in for
another international crime."
On Russia, the Council on Foreign Relations reports that
she’s calling for strengthening NATO and “tougher measures against Putin to
punish him for invading Ukraine and annexing Crimea as well as for supporting
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.” “I remain convinced,” they quote her, “that
we need a concerted effort to really up the cost on Russia and, in particular,
on Putin.” She considers that Russia’s intervention in Syria creates “chaos”:
"I
think it’s important too that the United States make it very clear to Putin
that it’s not acceptable for him to be in Syria creating more chaos, bombing
people on behalf of Assad, and we can’t do that if we don’t take more of a
leadership position, which is what I’m advocating."
Russia Today blames
Clinton’s outrageous Russophobia—“Hillary Clinton is the Bachman Turner
Overdrive of US politics”–on Obama’s mistake for allowing the Neo-con
contingent to dominate the State Department:
Obama’s
other mistake was to allow Hillary, as Secretary of State, to retain neocon
holdovers from the Bush administration on her Eastern Europe team. Even more
incredibly, Kerry then inherited them for the second term. “Obama allowed US
officials on the ground (in Ukraine and elsewhere) to pursue a grossly
irresponsible and provocative anti-Russian policy,” Anatol Lieven recently told
the Valdai Club. “What on earth, one may ask, was Victoria Nuland, a
neo-conservative State Department official married to the arch neocon Robert
Kagan, doing in the Obama administration at all, given that her attitudes run
clearly counter to his?”Lieven also pointed out that “figures like Nuland are
still favored by Hillary Clinton (Kagan is now moving into her political camp)
and much of the US foreign and security establishment; and that with regard to
Russia, that establishment is still conditioned to pursue what are in effect
Cold War attitudes.”
The Neo-Cons and “New” Imperialists
Hillary Clinton represents the
personification of rehabilitated imperialism, the overarching geopolitical
focus of American politics. That is why she will be the establishment’s
choice—tested and proven. She will press hard against the political independence
of Russia and the economic rise of China, a pressure that encapsulates American
foreign policy in the foreseeable future.
Neo-con
and neo-liberal promoters of the “new imperialism” are Western regime
intellectuals and historians such as Max Boot, Niall Ferguson, and Michael
Ignatieff.
As a
result, by 2003, the year of the invasion of Iraq, media pundits were busy
domesticating the word “empire.” American propaganda had proscribed the word
for decades on account of there being only one empire, which was “evil”: the
USSR. With the Soviet Union gone, America congratulated itself on being #1, the
sole super-power, the essential country, and, the old standby, the exceptional
country. None of these brands resonated with the force that the scope of
conquering the world required. To make matters worse, critics of the invasion
of Afghanistan and Iraq, were floating the un-American term “imperialism.”
Something had to be done. With the evil empire dead, the good empire could
re-emerge. Max Boot, Senior Fellow in National Security Studies at Council on
Foreign Relations, proposed “an American might to promote American
ideals”–messianic political morality at the point of a gun. He explained.
"In the
early twentieth century, Americans talked of spreading Anglo-Saxon civilization
and taking up the ‘white man’s burden’; today they talk of spreading democracy
and defending human rights. Whatever you call it, this represents an idealistic
impulse that has always been a big part in America’s impetus for going to war."
Soon
after 9/11, 2001, Boot had already invoked this impetuous idealism to respond
to the lament of suffering nations pining for the . . . return of a
British-style imperial ministration.
Afghanistan
and other troubled lands today cry out for the sort of enlightened foreign
administration once provided by self-confident Englishmen in jodhpurs and pith
helmets.
And in 2002, Boot wrote, “Imperialism used to be the
white man’s burden. This gave it a bad reputation. But imperialism doesn’t stop
being necessary because it is politically incorrect” (New York Times Magazine, July 28, 2002). Neoconservative William Kristol, of The Weekly Standard, said more tersely on Fox television at the time, “if
people want to say we’re an imperial power, fine.”If there is a place on earth
that is testy about Western imperialism, that place is China. If there is an
American official who has sorely tested China’s anti-colonial sensibility, that
person is Clinton. As First Lady, she rousingly declared that “women’s rights
are human rights” in Beijing at the UN World Conference on Women in 1995. As
Secretary of State, in 2011, she denounced China’s “deplorable” record of human
rights in an interview with Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic. Again in 2011, she proposed a US policy toward China as
one “of advancing democracy and human rights” in a Foreign
Policy article, titled “America’s Pacific
Century.”
To Chinese officials’ ear this aggressive insistence on
human rights sounded suspiciously like a systematic call for color revolution
in China. Her hostile intent, had already become apparent in 2010. At the ASEAN
Regional Forum in Hanoi, she confirmed China’s suspicion that she advocated a
US policy of containment by intervening in the territorial disputes of the
South China Sea. Recommending a “rebalance” of power in the disputed
areas, she
asserted that the US had “a national
interest in freedom of navigation, open access to Asia’s maritime commons, and
respect for international law in the South China Sea.”
China’s Foreign Minister at the time, Yang Jiechi, at
first walked out of the meeting, only to return an hour later with theominous
reminderthat “China is a big country and other
countries are small countries, and that’s just a fact.”
On the unpopular Trans-Pacific Trade Agreement, a pact
China correctly perceives as economic containment, she said in her debate with
Bernie Sanders on 4 February 2016 that she now opposes it after having
strenuously and enthusiastically supported it as Obama’s Secretary of State
until 2012 and beyond. Her flip-flops on the TPT are well documented here.
These three affinities—with finance, war, and
imperialism—make Hillary Clinton the perfect mate for president of the
financial-imperial White House. Picture her in jodhpurs and pith helmet astride
the financial bull, taking on the “white woman’s burden,” and riding the
humanitarian “savage wars for peace.” Stop worrying about Donald Trump
“Charybdis” and learn to avoid where the Basilisk treads, which will be
difficult. You can prepare by reviewing her record as “empire-slayer” here.
"I urged him to bomb." - Hillary Clinton
In
choosing between presidential candidates today, it’s best to stick to Bertie
Wooster’s advice about aunts: “It is no use telling me there are bad aunts and
good aunts. At the core, they are all alike. Sooner or later, out pops the
cloven hoof.”
"George Soros and his NGO, Black Lives Matter. The Open Society Foundations does exactly what it has done in its world wide infiltration of progressive movements. The infiltration is designed to undermine, redirect and take over the movement, codifying them into controlled opposition that subsequently becomes part of the mainstream. #Occupy Wall Street for starters. It should be clear that any funding coming in from the elite spells the inevitable demise of the original movement."
WE
should all be reminded that the group that call itself, {black lives matter}
is funded by the GEORGE SOROS,organization who is known world wide for funding
social movements to destabilize nations for the purpose of over throwing their
governments, in fact he and his organizations were just kicked out
of RUSSIA for this same reason.
WE
black AMERICANS are now being faced with whole manufactured black movements
that claim to speak in our name for our cause and are nothing more than movie
productions from JEWISH billionaires wishing to exploit our legitimate
grievances.
LET’S
pass the word on these people so we’re not played as useful idiots serving a
cause unknown to us .
THIS
website has numerous articles on SOROS and black lives matter in it’s
archive but the article below is from THE DAILY MAIL , dated 1/16/15 and more
updated video’s on the most recent protest.
The
#BlackLivesMatter organization is now part of the 2016 Democratic Party
election machinery, assuming its role as a power broker on behalf of Black
people. It’s a familiar historical pattern, except for the speed with which the
transition has taken place. “The #BLM philosophy is that therapeutic dialogue
with members of the power elite is politically more effective than the
presentation of core demands.”
#BlackLivesMatter: Chat Partners with Hilllary
by BAR executive editor Glen Ford
“When #BLM folks claim they have ‘lots’ of
demands, it actually means they have no core demands, at all.”
The best
thing that could be said about the #BlackLivesMatter Campaign Zero team is that
they are an embarrassment, political tourists in the halls of empire. The truth
is, however, much worse. In two meetings with Democratic presidential
frontrunner Hillary Clinton, they have offered no demands worthy of the name,
choosing instead to imagine that they are “pushing” Clinton and the Democratic
Party into some stance advantageous to Black people. In reality, the
#BlackLivesMatter clique has dissipated the energy – and threat – of angry
Black bodies, hands and missiles in motion in Ferguson and Baltimore. Quickly
fading is the specter of a Black movement from down below that struck real fear
in the Obama administration and much of the U.S. power structure. Instead,
#BlackLivesMatter provides harmless chat partners for Hillary and the other
presidential hopefuls.
The #BLM
operatives claim they “spent months” studying Clinton’s positions on the
issues, in preparation for the meeting. Why? To gauge how far they could “move”
the war criminal and corporate thief? Move her towards what? Campaign Zero’s
“demands” are an eclectic assortment of criminal justice reform ideas and
recommendations, many of them straight out of Obama’s presidential task force
on policing, and borrowed “best-practice” police procedures (Seattle is their
favorite department). When #BLM folks claim they have “lots” of demands, it
actually means they have no core demands, at all.
“#BlackLivesMatter provides harmless chat
partners for Hillary and the other presidential hopefuls.”
The Democrats scoped them as political assets, early on:
that’s why the Democratic National Committee overwhelmingly voted to “endorse [3]” #BlackLivesMatter back in August. The trio of
#BLM founders, Patrisse Cullors, Opal Tometi, and Alicia Garza, formally rejected [4] the official DNC embrace, but the #BLM’s
chat-and-tweet-squads have continued to make the Democrats look good by
pretending to hold them accountable through meaningless, meandering,
demand-less meetings.
DeRay Mckesson, Brittany Packnett, Johnetta Elzie, Cherno
Biko and Samuel Sinyangwe provided Hillary Clinton with another
useful backdrop [5], last week. They appear
to believe their mission was to “educate” Clinton (although they would have
done far better to have educated themselves on political movement history,
practice and theory). "This was an opportunity to get input from black
people, who are experts of their own lives, solutions to dismantling anti-black
racist institutions and policies," Johnetta Elzie told reporters. #BLM
thinks that relaying the recommendations of an Obama task force to a former
Obama Secretary of State equals providing “solutions to dismantling anti-black
racist institutions and policies.”
“They appear to believe their mission was to
‘educate’ Clinton.”
Actually,
the #BLM crew’s primary mission was to force Clinton to mentally grapple with
white privilege, and to grasp how Black people “feel.” #BLM’s aim is to assure
that the next president has a deeper understanding of the workings of racism –
presumably, deeper than the current, Black one. In the course of the
conversation, Elzie said Clinton “...would
listen and acknowledge that her experience was totally different than any of
the black people at this table. It took her awhile to get there, but she got
there. So I’m hopeful that she will continue to have this educational
conversation with herself to acknowledge her privilege. You saying that you
know that you’re white, you know that you have power, and you know that you are
wealthy is not the same as seeing it and knowing that the way that police
interact with you is completely different than how they will ever interact with
us.”
The #BLM
philosophy is that therapeutic dialogue with members of the power elite is
politically more effective than the presentation of core demands. (Certainly,
it is better for the future careers of the #BLM interlocutors.)
When it
came to actually doing something about the Black condition, Clinton was less
forthcoming. “I think she can take a harder stance on how she understands the
role of the federal government in protecting the rights of people of color and
pushing and modeling for local and state governments,” said DeRay Mckesson.
“She kind of downplayed the role of the federal government and placed it all on
state and local government,” said Johnetta Elzie.
Clinton
used the meeting to announce her opposition to private prisons – which may have
come as a shock to her campaign contributors from Wall Street’s corporate
incarceration firms.
Elzie
offered that Bernie Sanders has a better understanding of Black people’s
justifiable fears of police. She and McKesson told the press they would wait to
see more specifics from Clinton before deciding who to support. Cherno Biko
said Clinton “hasn't earned my endorsement yet, but I'm looking forward to her
releasing a racial justice platform in the coming weeks." Brittany
Packnett emerged from the meeting “still thinking about where I will put my
vote and not yet having an answer."
“The #BLM crowd milked the incipient movement for
all it was worth.”
They
will all endorse one of the Democrats, sooner rather than later. The
#BlackLivesMatter tent has already been folded up inside the Democratic Party,
where slick Black “activists” on the make go to catch the express elevator to
the executive suites. In less than a year, the #BLM crowd milked the incipient
movement for all it was worth, presenting themselves as the interlocutors
between the streets and Power. It’s been one hell of a journey – a great
hustle. They have arrived at where they wanted to be: part of the age-old Black
Petit Bourgeois Shuffle, dancing to the Master’s tune, while complaining that
their pale partners still don’t have the right rhythm.
The demand from the streets remains the same as it has been
since the imposition of the modern Black mass incarceration regime, two
generations ago: Black community control of the police – by any means
necessary. The Black
Is Back Coalition for Social Justice [6],
Peace and Reparations will rally and march on the White House onSaturday, November 7 [6] – as it has every year since 2009 – under
the banner “Black Power Matters.”
The
demand for Black community control of police is called forth by both the
principle of self-determination and the facts of Black existence in the United
States. But self-determination does not exist in the practice of
#BlackLivesMatter, which has squandered Black people’s dignity and the momentum
of an emerging movement.
We wish
them a swift and complete assimilation into the corridors of Power – which was
their mission, all along.
