George Floyd

A 32-year-old man with the mental age of an 8-year-old child was executed by Israeli soldiers on May 30, while crouching behind his teacher near his special needs school in the Old City of Jerusalem.
The cold-blooded murder of Eyad Hallaq might not have received much attention if it were not for the fact that it took place five days following the similarly heartbreaking murder of a 46-year-old black man, George Floyd, in Minneapolis, at the hands of American police.

So, the GloboCap-Resistance Minneapolis Putsch appears to have not gone exactly to plan. Once again, Trump failed to go full-Hitler, despite their best efforts to goad him into doing so. They gave it quite a good shot, however. It was more or less a textbook regime-change op, or “color revolution,” or whatever you call it. All the essential pieces were in place.

Guest post by ANIA LOOMBA AND SUVIR KAUL Protest in Philadelphia, June 7, 2020 (Video by Teren Sevea)) In 2002, when we moved to Philadelphia to join the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania, a friend invited us for breakfast to his home in West Philadelphia, abutting the university.

The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris discuss the George Floyd riots that went global with large, and often times violent, protests (specifically hitting the UK) where historical statues were vandalized and torn down by angry mobs.
“Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.” George Orwell’s famous quote comes from his justifiably famous science fiction novel “Nineteen Eighty-Four”.

We often run videos with our newspieces because we know that while a picture is worth a thousand words, a video is truly worth thousands of pictures. We offer a simple, unprofessional video gleaned from Facebook, from a source called “Sergeant StickItTooYa” which despite its use of profanity, offers a very simple, clear analysis of how the riots and demonstrations around the world are being run and directed.

After the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis two weeks ago, a spontaneous nationwide movement of millions of people protesting racist policing has gripped the country. Politicians of all stripes have staked out their positions, condemning, endorsing, or trying to co-opt the radical movement. The latest of these is failed 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

The Black Lives Matter movement is insane, AND it is now become a political party, perhaps the most powerful political party in the United States at this point. The ability this movement and its supporters have had on an already weakened and dispirited American populace is dangerous, despite the polled prevalence of common sense.

Now in the third week of the aftermath of the George Floyd incident at the hands of the Minneapolis police, America has descended into a mire of  protests, rioting and looting – all in the name of ‘social justice.’ But things haven’t stopped there. Radical activists are now demanding the abolition of police departments across the country. Is “Black Lives Matter” now a political party? What is their real end game?
According to political commentator Tucker Carlson, this is not politics as usual, it’s mob rule. Watch:
