It really is a shame, and it is tiring, but it is actually nothing new: there is now total disarray amongst those countless ‘progressive’ and ‘semi-left’ Western intellectuals, publications, movements and political parties.

The oil giant tells investors that even if Paris climate goals are met, it could still produce all the oil in its existing fields and keep investing in new reserves.

In South Sudan, food aid is used as a weapon and is either looted and destroyed or blocked from reaching those in areas controlled by the opposition. Similar instances occur in Somalia where aid organizations are heavily taxed, which results in additional funds that are used to perpetuate the conflict. In fact, receiving U.S. food aid literally feeds the violence and is positively correlated with a higher probability and increased duration of civil war.
(MEE) — US forces have started to withdraw from Iraq, two months after Iraqi authorities declared victory over Islamic State, an Iraqi government spokesman said on Monday. “The American forces have begun reducing their numbers as victory has been achieved over Daesh,” the spokesman told Reuters. “Coordination continues, to maintain (US) assistance to the Iraqi forces in accordance […]

Roadside sign in Cape Town, South Africa, from February 2017 (source)by Gaius PubliusIn Cape Town, South Africa, they're calling it the day the water taps could be turned off.

Unlike violent revolution, Sharp's methods keep civil society’s pillars intact. In many cases, these nonviolent tactics create civil society where none previously existed and increase the depleted social capital within a country.
Delaware: Governor John Carney proposes a new state policy, called 'Prohibition of Discrimination', that allows children from K to 12 to choose their own name, race, or gender identify, and even access hormone blockers necessary to transition to the opposite sex, all without the knowledge of their parents. Parents are outraged over the proposal, and over 11,000 public comments submitted to Delaware’s Department of Education have been overwhelmingly negative. Schools in Chicago, Massachusetts and Oregon have similar policies in place.

Phil Mudd, a former CIA and FBI agent, says he believes the FBI will make sure the agency eventually comes out on top in a head-to-head battle with the president. Mudd says the bureau is angry about the release of the FISA memo and about Trump's criticism of the FBI. Last year, Mudd said the "government's gonna kill this guy" [...]
If the EU is constantly pushing for more integration, more centralization, and the abolition of localism, it is only to be expected that the elite figures of the EU would want to quash any sentiments of separatism or localized decision-making. By making the case for true independence from both the United Kingdom and the European Union, we could seize an opportunity to make Scotland one of the greatest liberal strongholds of the world once again, stabilized by free trade and a thriving open market economy.
Los Angeles International Airport: The National Transportation Safety Administration and Homeland Security will launch a 3-week test using facial recognition from RFID chips in passports. Most of the official discussion is about how happy passengers will be as a result of faster processing times and shorter lines. We suspect, however, that the primary motive behind this technology is to explore a data set that can be used globally with a single search criteria (the human face). It could become the universal ID code.
Dr. Ronald Levy of Stanford University is reporting that a vaccine using two immune stimulators to target tumors in mice cured 87 out of 90 mice in the first effort and all traces of the specifically targeted cancer were eliminated from the animal's entire body. [This is great news, not only because it appears to be effective, but because immune stimulators, if they are taken from nature, should be very inexpensive to mass produce. However, if the pharmaceutical industry follows true to form, the 'vaccine' will be absurdly expensive.
Le parlement polonais vient d’adopter la semaine dernière un projet de loi punissant d’une peine pouvant aller jusqu’à trois ans de prison toute personne qui « attribue à la République de Pologne et à la nation polonaise, publiquement et contrairement à la réalité des faits, la responsabilité ou la coresponsabilité de crimes nazis perpétrés par le IIIe Reich allemand ».
L’écologie n’est pas juste un mot à la mode : il traduit une pollution croissante qui s’installe dans les villes, et touche votre santé, en particulier votre système respiratoire. Pour quiconque habite, par exemple, un appartement en ville, combien de fois vous êtes-vous retrouvé à ouvrir votre fenêtre pour avoir un peu d’air, mais à vite la refermer face à la pollution aussi bien de l’air que sonore qui entrait rapidement ?
The FBI and DOJ presented the dossier to the FISA court to get the wiretap warrant and signed an affidavit affirming they believed the dossier was reliable, but they knew it was funded by Democratic Party money and that the author of the dossier hated Trump. Three weeks ago, Rod Rosenstein threatened House Intel Chairman Devin Nunes and other members of Congress, saying he was going to subpoena their texts and messages because he was tired of dealing with the Intel Committee.
One problem that continues to plague the justice system is the use of unreliable forensic evidence. Out of the 351 cases in which the Innocence Project used DNA to exonerate wrongfully convicted defendants, flawed forensic evidence contributed in nearly half.
James Comey, Rod Rosenstein, and Andrew McCabe signed off on the requests for FISA court authority to spy on Trump based on the fraudulent Trump dossier that was filled with lies and also was know to have been paid for by Hillary Clinton's campaign. It is now apparent that America's intelligence agencies no longer can be trusted. Yet, in the name of national security, they are allowed to work in secrecy and have the ultimate power to take human life. When Trump eventually leaves office, these agencies will remain. Americans should be very nervous about that.

Dear Readers: This is one of the most important articles I have written, along with this one: https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2018/02/02/nuclear-posture-review/. If the Russiagate conspiracy against Trump and American democracy goes unpunished, accountable government in the United States will cease to exist. US security agencies have long been involved in coups against foreign governments. Now they are involved in one against America.

Recently a new model-based paper on climate sensitivity was published by Kate Marvel, Gavin Schmidt (the head of NASA GISS) and others, titled ‘Internal variability and disequilibrium confound estimates of climate sensitivity from observations’.[1] It appears to me that the novel part of its analysis is faulty, and that the part which isn’t faulty isn’t novel.
WADA has alleged that 1,000 Russian athletes were involved in doping in the 2012 and 2014 Olympics [Xinhua]
