As Washington’s war hawks move us ever closer to WWIII, the moment may have arrived where this U.S. President must now decide whether it’s ‘America First’ or Israel First, because it can’t be both.
Do you want to know America’s future after the Dollar Dies? Look at the case of Chris Dorner and multiply that by 10,000. Dorner had sent his manifesto to Anderson Cooper at CNN on February 1 ,2013. His killing spree began on February 3rd. Dorner wanted the LAPD to publicly admit that he was dismissed because he reported excessive force.

På våren 1907 fick Verner von Heidenstam uppdraget att skriva en läsebok för folkskolan om Sveriges historia. Första delen av Svenskarna och deras hövdingar sändes ut till jul 1908 och kritiken var i stort sett enig om att han skrivit ett stort och nyttigt verk. En recensent, Vera von Kraemer, skrev så här: ”Man blir varm över den stolta, fina svenskhet, som speglas i dessa blad.”
Två år senare kom den andra delen ut. Boken fick stor spridning. Skolupplagan trycktes sista gången om 1953; då var man uppe i 235 000 ex för första delen och 210 000 för andra.
by NoahWe are at war, a cyberwar with Russia. And Trump and McConnell are still doing nothing about this war; continuing their coverup, all in hopes of even more and deeper Russian infiltration of our electoral process in 2020. The Democrats? Mr. Nicey-Nice President Obama went to McConnell with all the evidence that was needed back in 2016 when he should have given an address to the nation as soon as McConnell made his true colors known.

There are no protests on the streets and no effigies of university officials being burned by protesting students today. There are no protests outside the officers of the over-remunerated Vice Chancellors and their various henchpersons. It is business and malpractice as usual after revelations by Australia’s national broadcaster that Australian universities have been adjusting admission requirements to boost student numbers.

Hartung and Mandy Smithberger In its latest budget request, the Trump administration is asking for a near-record $750 billion for the Pentagon and related defense activities, an astonishing figure by any measure.

Le 8 mai 1945, tandis que la France fêtait la victoire, son armée massacrait des milliers d’Algériens à Sétif et à Guelma. Ce traumatisme radicalisera irréversiblement le mouvement national.
Désignés par euphémisme sous l’appellation d’« événements » ou de « troubles du Nord constantinois », les massacres du 8 mai 1945 dans les régions de Sétif et de Guelma sont considérés rétrospectivement comme le début de la guerre algérienne d’indépendance. Cet épisode appartient aux lignes de clivage liées à la conquête coloniale.

I don’t know if most people in the United States ever knew what Fallujah meant. It’s hard to believe the U.S. military would still exist if they did.

(TMU) — The tale is like something out of the movies: a mysterious beluga whale swims into the open waters of a northern Scandinavian town, seemingly on a military mission from a rival abroad, before revealing himself to be quite ill-fitted for his top-secret mission.

I smell a rat. John Bolton, Trump’s national security adviser or, more correctly, Israel’s agent, has assembled a team consisting of himself, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Emirati crown prince Mohammed bin Zayed, and Saudi ruler Mohammed bin Salman. These men are Iran’s four worst enemies.
