Sent to 'Save The UK Fire Service' group, a powerful and emotional story from a firefighter who attended Grenfell Tower. "Some things I will miss out as they don't need to be said, some I can't say, other things I will simplify so hopefully everyone can understand them, I'm not looking for praise, I just want to let you know we did all we could."

American kids are way more likely to take prescription ADHD drugs than children in other countries. Distressingly, we have little evidence as to the long-term effects and risks of wide-spread psychiatric medication of children. There are ways to treat anxiety in our youth besides drugs.
(MEE) Russia on Monday said it would track as “targets” any US-led coalition planes operating west of the Euphrates river in Syria, and condemned the shooting down of a Syrian government plane by US forces.
The son of a southern Baptist minister, Martin Luther King, Jr received his Ph.D. in theology from Boston University in 1955. During his studies, he had admired Thoreau’s essay “On the Duty of Civil Disobedience,” and he had also been greatly moved by the life and teachings of Mahatma Gandhi. King applies the teachings of Thoreau and Gandhi to the[Read More...]
Sångsällskapet Orphei Drängar, OD, är en känd upsaliensisk manskör. Gluntens Drängar, GD, är en okänd upsaliensisk manskör. Frågan är om GD kan kallas kör. Vi är två glada amatörer, vissa skulle kalla oss klåpare. Men det vi inte har i talang, tar vi igen i glädje. Medan OD stämmer sina strängar och knäpper till Apollos pris, sjunger vi Gluntens pris. Den Evige Studenten. OD är apolloniskt, det är konstfärdigt framförda sånger. GD däremot är dionysiskt, det är yvigt och skråligt. Kanske blir vi bättre med tiden? Kanske inte. Det gör detsamma. Vi är alla Zeus söner.
Four days after President Trump announced the United States would withdraw from the Paris climate agreement, the Global Footprint Network (GFN) reported that Earth Overshoot Day 2017 will fall on August 2. Most Americans likely have no idea what that means. The basic point is quite simple: From January 1 to August 2, the world’s 7.5 billion people will have used as much of[Read More...]
Backed by US airstrikes, artillery and special forces “advisors,” Iraqi troops began storming Mosul’s crowded Old City, where the United Nations estimates that some 150,000 civilians are trapped under the siege.

Automation has always resulted in new jobs and higher living standards. But many people have a difficult time trusting in what they cannot see and find the iron fist of government more comforting than the invisible hand of the free market.
We started DWT a dozen years ago... the spring of 2005. Back then we used to do one post a day. But that only lasted a few months and since then we haven't had a day with just one post in over a decade-- not while I was in a jeep driving around the trackless wastes of Mali on the way to Timbuktu nor while I was laying in a hospital bed (blogging while I was drugged up and attached to industrial speed machinery), getting an experimental full stem cell transplant, and irrespective how big and crucial any one news story ever was. But rules are made to be broken.
Obviously the US has the upper hand and desperately needs to maintain a certain perception of their naval might therefore we can expect this story to be carefully managed. By carefully managed, yes, I do mean obfuscated, in a manner that serves the US militaryA number of commenters suggested the Crystal had intentionally and maliciously rammed the Fitzgerald. This is absurd. It makes no logical sense what so ever! Why would the container ship crew and captain do this? For what gain? To possibly be blown out of the water?
In a marked escalation of the war in Syria, a US F-18 fighter jet yesterday shot down a Syrian government fighter bomber for the first time, claiming that it had been attacking pro-US rebel forces on the ground near Raqqa. While nominally fighting Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) forces, the US shoot-down makes clear that the real target[Read More...]

Democracy Is A Front For Central Bank Rule

Several years ago when the Federal Reserve had its Fed funds rate at zero to 25 basis points (one-quarter of one percent—0.25%), there was a great deal of talk, somehow presented as urgent, whether the Federal Reserve would raise interest rates.
Conventional wisdom dictates that Israel and Kurdish insurgents throughout the Middle East are close allies and there is plenty of evidence to confirm that historically, Israel has always militarily and otherwise aided Kurds in Iraq, Syria, Iran and even Turkey. Long before the rise of Erdogan in Turkey, Israel’s good relations with the Kurds was one of the only major points of disagreements in what was generally a healthy relationship between Ankara and Tel Aviv.
Russia has announced it has suspended an agreement to share the whereabouts of Russian aircraft over Syria.
The sky incident prevention interactions agreement otherwise known as the ‘flight safety memorandum’ was previously cancelled by Russia after the illegal US attack on a Syrian airbase on the 6th of April 2017.
It was quietly reinstated shortly thereafter.
Russia is clearly furious at America for shooting down a Syrian aircraft which has impeded the Syrian fight against ISIS and other terrorist groups.

Back in January, 2016, former Tory Prime Minister, David Cameron announced in the media his intention to demolish some of England’s worst council estates and “rebuild houses people feel they can have a future in”.
Many have long suspected that Kurdish forces fighting ISIS in Syria are doing so in pursuit of a uniquely self-interested goal, that of carving out a large autonomous region from legal Syrian territory or otherwise unilaterally proclaiming an independent state on sovereign Syrian soil.
Now, the Kurdish dominated and strongly US backed SDF has confirmed that it will “retaliate” against any incursions of the Syrian Arab Army into what it now considers its territory.
In the late hours of Sunday evening, a terrorist in a large white van rammed into pedestrians on a pavement outside of a mosque in North London.
This is the second ramming style van attack in the UK capital in a two week period.
Both targets were apparently calculated to inflict maximum damage.
One person is reportedly dead with 10 injured.
The suspect who has not been named can be clearly seen being arrested after the attack in the following video:

The US’ deployment of the HIMARS missile system to eastern Syria is designed to deter the Syrian Arab Army’s Dash for Deir az-Zor.
Yesterday, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards launched a ballistic missile attack on terrorist targets in Syria’s Deir ez-Zor Governorate.
The attack on ISIS targets is of course legal as Iran is a member of the Syrian led anti-terrorist coalition which includes Russia. The attack also came as the Iranian and Chinese navies were conducting joint military drills in the Persian Gulf.

Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov has condemned the US downing of a Syrian jet in Syria using even stronger language than Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
Lavrov stated that the US must coodinate its campaign in Syria with Russia and others while calling on the United States to respect Syrian sovereignty.
Few trends are ever truly global and even within fairly compact global regions, many political differences remain. There is no one-size fits all solution, nor a one-size fits all style of analysis from perceived regional let alone global trends.
On June 5, South Korean President Moon Jai-in ordered an environmental impact assessment in the area where four additional Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) launchers were to be deployed. THAAD is a mobile system capable of hitting ballistic missiles inside or outside the atmosphere in their final, or terminal, phase.
The fantasy of Russian aggression continues to fuel NATO’s real aggression.
As Russia continues to moves its border closer to NATO territory, NATO is working hard to close any defensive “gaps” that might be exploited by the Russian military…which covets the occupation of the three tiny Baltic nations that are in the middle of a de-population crisis as Lithuanians, Estonians and Latvians leave their respective countries in droves for greener pastures in the UK and Germany.
Around the time of the Syrian victory in the Battle of Aleppo, the fact that the government of Syria would not fall has been more or less assured.
Recent events have made this a virtual certainty. Because of this however, a new kind of proxy war is taking place with its own unique unspoken rules.

In a Showtime interview of Russian President Vladimir Putin by American film-maker Oliver Stone, which started airing on June 12th, Putin called «lies» many of the allegations by U.S. intelligence agencies, to the effect that he or his government attempted to influence the outcome of the 2016 U.S. Presidential election.
Finns det liv därute? Länge var frågan om liv i universum ett ämne för science fiction-litteraturen. Idag lutar även många forskare åt att vi inte är ensamma, det kanske rentav kryllar av liv ute bland stjärnorna.Omfattande projekt och stora summor pengar har spenderats i försöken att få korn på intelligenta rymdvarelser. Idag pågår en intensiv jakt efter så kallade exoplaneter, planeter som har förutsättningar för att liv ska kunna uppstå. Så, vad skulle det betyda om vi fick klara bevis för att vi inte är ensamma?

Yesterday a US F/A-18E Super Hornet is reported to have shot down a Syrian Army SU-22 jet near the village of Rasafah, south of Raqqa. Washington claims it was an act of ‘collective self-defense’ because the Syrian jet had dropped bombs “near US-backed forces.” Syrian officials in Damascus deny the US claims, stating that their plane was downed while conducting a strike on an ISIS position.
For Fox News’ Judge Jeanine, the Republicans are watching the Democrats railroad their president, and for good reason.
Republicans are working with, not against Democrats and the Deep State, to impeach Trump and restore order to the DC swamp.
Jeanine’s opening statement is a stunning indictment of the GOP and it’s agenda to throw Trump under the bus.
While NATO leaders were congratulating themselves on the accession of petite Montenegro into the military pact, NATO’s counter-balancing force to the east was welcoming as full members India and Pakistan. While Montenegro’s flag was being raised at NATO headquarters in Brussels, the flags of the world’s most populous democracy and the third-most populous Muslim nation – India and Pakistan, respectively – were being raised at the Beijing headquarters of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).
The Russian Foreign Ministry has not let America’s illegal shooting down of a Syrian fighter jet go unanswered.
Sergei Lavrov commented on the American attack on Syria in Raqqa and called on Washington to respect Syrian territorial integrity and the country’s sovereignty according to the UNSC 2254 resolution.

Oliver Stone’s interview of the Russian President airing on Showtime continues to garner much liberal left hatred for its humanization of Vladimir Putin, which for the radical liberal left is a major no-no.
The academy-winning filmmaker started the interview dismantling the Financial Times’ Matthew Garrahan, and his propaganda about Russia’s “hacking” into US elections.
Stone then answered a Syria Human Rights Watch, war crimes gotcha question, with amazing skill and calm…
“We have a major imbalance between savings and investment. We have the highest savings rates in the history of capitalism and lowest level of investment. You only have to state that to realise what the source of our troubles are.”
