Britain

Today 17,000 peaceful protesters marched in the Scottish city of Glasgow demanding a new referendum on independence.
Here’s how the story would be reported if it was happening in the Arab world or the Russian speaking world or for that matter anywhere outside of the west. 
17,000 Scottish rebels gathered today to protest the ruling British regime. In 2016, Scottish people voted to remain part of the European Union but the nationalist regime in London is set on ignoring the demands of the moderate rebels.

The illegal 1999 NATO war on Yugoslavia caused two parallel crises and is the proximate cause of a third. Most tragically, it caused the displacement of thousands of Serbians from their native Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija to other parts of Serbia. Many still live without permanent homes.
At the same time, although the Serbia province of Kosovo and Metohija became fully occupied by ethnic Albanians with the help of NATO forces and EU political enforcers, many decided to take up permanent residency in neighbouring countries including in Macedonia.

Long before most people in Europe or North America were familiar with the word ‘jihad’, left-wing terrorism ravaged much of Western Europe.
Groups like West Germany’s Red Army Faction/Baader-Meinhof Gang, America’s Symbionese Liberation Army, Italy’s Red Brigades, Spain’s First of October Anti-Fascist Resistance Groups, Portugal’s FP-25, Action Directe in France and the IRA in Britain were left wing terrorist groups who committed numerous atrocities including targeted killings, bombings, kidnappings and torture on a wide scale.

Back in December, when I first began writing about how Theresa May was not the strong and decisive Prime Minister the British establishment was making her out to be, I was alone in saying it.   The British general election has turned my solitary view into a consensus.

The unsayable in Britain’s general election campaign is this: The causes of the Manchester atrocity, in which 22 mostly young people were murdered by a jihadist, are being suppressed to protect the secrets of British foreign policy.

Could a Corbyn win in the upcoming election turn things around?
Jeremy Corbyn, leader of the British Labour Party, has come out in support of the idea that Western foreign policy decisions have at least partly contributed to the rise of terror attacks like that in Manchester last weekend.

Nowadays, the common sense can hardly believe in the tangible fact that NATO is endangering the safety of the two nuclear powers, Russia and China. Judging by the anti-Russian campaign in the Western media, as well as the deployment of NATO troops in Eastern Europe and the Far East, it is as if the war has already started.

When Britain’s collusion with death squads across the ‘Middle East’ and Africa is mentioned it falls on deaf ears.  The only time you’ll hear of Britain’s open collaboration with these forces are when they are branded ‘moderates’ or ‘rebels’ by the British media.

British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s impressive speech on foreign policy and the West’s failed “War on Terror” illustrates an unreported truth about the ongoing British general election: Jeremy Corby is cutting a far more impressive figure during the election than Prime Minister Theresa May.
Before discussing this I wish to make one important qualification about Corbyn’s speech.

Britain’s Labour opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn has delivered a speech in which he blamed current and past British foreign policy for the proliferation of terrorism in the United Kingdom.
Last year, Corbyn was elected leader of the historically left-wing Labour Party which under Tony Blair moved to the neo-liberal/pro-war spectrum of politics. Corbyn’s socialist policies have earned him the ire of British mainstream media including the state-owned British Broadcasting Corporation.
