Confirmation that the EU Commission has dropped its opposition to Nord Stream 2 – the giant gas pipeline Russia is building through the Baltic to supply natural gas directly to Germany – effectively ends whatever doubts previously existed about the project.
More importantly, it also means Russia has won the energy war, which has been raging around the issue of Russian gas supplies to Europe over the last decade and a half.
I confess, I’ve never been too keen on the Eurovision Song Contest and only because the style of music isn’t my thing. But many people have fun with it. It is after all a time to put aside our differences and celebrate diversity….unless you are a young Russian woman in a wheelchair, that is.
Last week The Duran’s Alexander Mercouris thoroughly debunked the Russiagate narrative being spewed out by the Hillary aristocracy, Democrats, mainstream media, and anyone else with less than half a brain and zero deductive reasoning skills.
The blood-soaked quagmire that is Ukraine and recent statements from US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson alluding to the notion that regime change in Syria is off the table, indicate that the US policy of toppling governments it doesn’t like may be a thing of the past. However, western meddling in Belarus says otherwise.
The concept of a ghetto has traditionally been one that implies the involuntary segregation of a poor or marginalised group into a less than desirable quarter of a city, often totally cut-off from the nicer parts of town.
Today though, in affluent western cities whether New York, Berlin, London, Toronto, San Francisco or Los Angeles, economically well-off individuals of the liberal mindset, tend to voluntarily wall themselves off in a psychological and spiritual ghetto. In this place, they are sheltered from the realities of the real world.
Senator Bernie Sanders, speaking at a rally in Boston, launched a stinging attack on the Democratic Party’s leadership, and by implication on Hillary Clinton.
Bernie Sanders’s point is that it was Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party leadership who lost the Presidential election rather than Donald Trump who won it.
The Russian navy will shortly receive Kazan, the second in class of the Yasen series of nuclear submarines, which has just been launched by the giant Sevmash shipyard in the northern port city of Severodvinsk in Arkhangelsk region.
Russia has released this video of Kazan’s launch, which gives a sense of the sheer size of this submarine
I’d like to begin by saying that this is not a ‘9/11 conspiracy piece’, it is a piece questioning Donald Trump’s role, if any, in a recent event to do with 9/11.
The FBI recently released photos of of the Pentagon after the 9/11 attacks. The photos which are far more detailed than previous public evidence from the event, have re-fuelled conspiracy theories which challenge the official 9/11 narrative.
In many parts of the world, the First of April is ‘April Fools’ Day’, a day of jokes, innocent white lies, hoaxes and humorous untruths.
Many newspapers and magazines used to participate in April Fools’ Day by publishing humorous, fake articles. For example one might have said,
–‘Moon landing faked in film studio admits cloned chimpanzee’
–‘Dutch Prime Minister resigns over spontaneous wildebeest stampede’
–‘I’m not actually dead, claims Augusto Pinochet’
–‘Russian plot exposed to elect famous billionaire US President as personal Putin puppet’
It has become increasingly clear over the last two weeks that the amateur sleuths who are driving Russiagate are taking the Trump Dossier prepared by the British ex-MI6 officer Christopher Steele as their starting point.
This is despite the fact that the Trump Dossier is still “uncorroborated”, and has been trashed by seasoned intelligence professionals like former CIA Acting Assistant Director Michael Morell.
