Like the aggressive wars of “humanitarian intervention” the west is waging across the oil-rich areas of the Middle East, the cruelty is actually kindness. Those who object, those who demur, do so only because they are in the financial or ideological grip of the mastermind Putin.
This is the moment when war becomes peace, freedom becomes slavery, ignorance becomes strength.

The media has already started to beat the war drums about an impending conflict between the United States, Israel ( maybe even the rest of the world), with the Islamic Republic of Iran, as the American president has strongly signaled his dissatisfaction with the JCPoA, a.k.a. “The Iran Nuclear Deal” that was put into effect in August of 2016.

Moscow’s delegation to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) held a press briefing in the Hague on April 26 on the alleged 7th April chemical attacks in Douma, Eastern Ghouta.
