VS burgers zijn gewaarschuwd: Rusland kan hun hersenen hacken en laten geloven dat Joe Biden niet geschikt is als president

Robert Bridge schreef een artikel op SCF (door mij overgenomen van Information Clearing House) waarin hij de draak steekt met de mediaorgaan Bloomberg en de Democraten in de VS. Boven de kop meende Bridge te moeten zeggen dat het om satire gaat, daar hij anders wel eens serieus zou kunnen worden genomen en inderdaad sinds de presidentsverkiezingen van 2016 lijkt heel de VS wel knettergek……. (hoewel, sinds 2016, of moeten we niet veel verder terug?)
Bloomberg berichtte dat er onderzoek wordt gedaan of Rusland bezig is met het besmeuren van Joe Biden vanwege zijn rol en die van zijn zoon, in een witwas schandaal met de firma Burisma waarvoor zijn zoon werkte en gezien de staat van de economie in Oekraïne het meer dan waanzinnige bedrag van 50.000 dollar per maand verdiende……*

Alsof Biden en zijn zoon niet mans genoeg zijn geweest in het besmeuren van de eigen naam, Joe Biden gaf NB toe dat hij Oekraïne onder druk had gezet met de mededeling dat VS wapenhulp wel eens zou kunnen worden teruggedraaid als het de openbaar aanklager die onderzoek deed naar de witwaspraktijken van Hunter Biden niet ontslagen zou worden, (nogmaals:) Hunter Biden die voor een achterlijk hoog salaris werkte voor Burisma…… Anders gezegd: het strafrechtelijk onderzoek naar Hunter Biden (dat volkomen terecht werd ingesteld) moest worden stopgezet daar Oekraïne anders wapenhulp van de VS kon vergeten…..

Uiteraard heeft Joe Biden nooit openlijk toegegeven dat de openbaar aanklager moest worden ontslagen daar hij onderzoek deed naar zijn zoon, nee de openbaar aanklager zou niet geschikt zijn geweest om corruptie te onderzoeken…….

Bridge heeft een hoogst humoristisch stuk geschreven over deze zaak, waarin hij de Democraten die nu al denken dat ze de verkiezingen in november zullen verliezen, volkomen belachelijk maakt…. De impeachment procedure die de Democraten hebben ingesteld tegen Trump kost hen vrijwel zeker het presidentschap en als in 2016 wil men daar anderen de schuld van geven, zoals destijds is Rusland nu al de klos…….*

De hele Russiagate zaak is een flop geworden en toch houden de Democraten en de reguliere VS media aan de kant van de Democraten (inclusief zo ongeveer de hele reguliere westerse pers buiten de VS) Rusland schuldig aan het verlies van oorlogsmisdadiger Clinton….. Rusland zou met het ‘waanzinnige budget’ van 100.000 dollar de verkiezingen in 2016 hebben gemanipuleerd ten gunste van Trump, waar dit bedrag volkomen in het niet valt vergeleken met de honderden miljoenen die werden uitgegeven aan die verkiezingen……..

Satire
Americans Beware! Russia Can Hack Your Brain, Make You Believe Joe Biden Unfit for Oval Office
Afbeeldingsresultaat voor Americans Beware! Russia Can Hack Your Brain, Make You Believe Joe Biden Unfit for Oval Office
By Robert Bridge

January 16, 2020 “Information Clearing House” – I suppose it is necessary, considering the bleak and humorless times we live in, to immediately start by acknowledging that the headline is meant as satire, what Webster defines as a form of “ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.”

In other words, nyet, the Kremlin does not have a hotline to the American brain that can trigger card-carrying Democrats to enter a catatonic trance on Election Day and vote against Joe Biden, or any of the other flawless Democratic gems for that matter. By this time, especially following the release of the Mueller Report, you would think that conspiracy theories involving Russia and American democracy would have subsided; instead they’ve only escalated as the U.S. enters the hot end of the 2020 presidential election campaign.
Courtesy of Bloomberg:

U.S. intelligence and law enforcement officials are assessing whether Russia is trying to undermine Joe Biden in its ongoing disinformation efforts with the former vice president still the front-runner in the race to challenge President Donald Trump, according to two officials familiar with the matter…
Part of the inquiry is to determine whether Russia is trying to weaken Biden by promoting controversy over his past involvement in U.S. policy toward Ukraine while his son worked for an energy company there.”

So how exactly does Russia, in a scene straight out of A Clockwork Orange, tap into the frontal lobe section of the U.S. electorate and cause them to lose all confidence in their political favorites?

A signature trait of Russian President Vladimir Putin ‘is his ability to convince people of outright falsehoods,’ William Evanina, director of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC), said in a statement. ‘In America, [the Russians are] using social media and many other tools to inflame social divisions, promote conspiracy theories and sow distrust in our democracy and elections.’”

Yes, somehow those dastardly Russians have outsmarted the brightest and best-paid political strategists in Washington, D.C. by brandishing what amounts to some really persuasive memes over social media, and for just rubles on the dollar. The techies at Wired went so far as to call this epic assault on the fragile American cranium, “meme warfare to divide America.” By way of evidence, it cited a very creative meme that screamed, “F*CK THE ELECTIONS,” which was intended, as the ironclad argument goes, to cause a number of impressionable Americans to throw up their hands in a fit of collective exasperation and say, ‘Ok, that’s it. I’m staying at home on Election Day.’

Yes, it’s really that easy! Imagine all the money the Russians and their radical new political technologies could have saved guys like casino tycoon, Sheldon Adelson, who showered the Trump campaign with $100 million dollars.

Many of those divisive Russian messages wormed their way onto Facebook, purportedly, where God only knows how many voter brains’ turned to maggots and mush just staring at them. Yet one individual who actually recalls seeing one or two of these dangerous memes was Rob Goldman, former Vice President for Advertising on Facebook, who revealed via Twitter, another infected social media platform, some interesting information:

Most of the coverage of Russian meddling involves their attempt to effect the outcome of the 2016 U.S. election. I have seen all of the Russian ads and I can say very definitively that swaying the election was *NOT* the main goal.”

Clearly, Goldman seems to have been under the sway of some folk Russian brainwashing technique, probably passed down from the time of Rasputin. In any case, Donald Trump himself took great satisfaction from that particular revelation, retweeting it to his millions of minions.

Very excited to see the Mueller indictment today. We shared Russian ads with Congress, Mueller and the American people to help the public understand how the Russians abused our system. Still, there are keys facts about the Russian actions that are still not well understood.


Incidentally, it may or may not be relevant, but Goldman retired from Facebook in October 2019 after seven years with the company.

Russia, the gift that keeps on giving

Not only have the Democrats been able to use the Russia bogeyman as their excuse for losing the White House in 2016, they are able to summon this distant nuclear power whenever they wish to curb internet freedoms, which is pretty much every day now.

Now, fun-loving memes are under attack and may soon go the way of the DoDo bird (“A small office of Russian trolls could derail 241 years of U.S. political history with a handful of dank memes and an advertising budget that would barely buy you a billboard in Brooklyn,” screamed insanely The Guardian). At the same time, the freedom of speech is getting destroyed by vapid accusations of ‘hate speech,’ which, unless used to incite violence, is a totally meaningless term used to eliminate any conversation that is undesirable to the elite.

Meanwhile, only the mainstream media these days are permitted to dabble in ‘conspiracy theories’ even as their own false narratives have contributed to the pulverization of entire nations, as was the case in Iraq, for example, which sustained a full-blown U.S. military invasion in 2003 following debunked claims that Saddam Hussein was harboring weapons of mass destruction. That was the mother of all conspiracy theories that was pushed unchallenged by the mainstream media.

So back to Joe Biden.

Do intelligent Americans really need help from Russia to prove that just maybe the former Vice President is mentally and physically unfit to stand for the White House? Probably not. From whispering sweet nothings into the ears of any female within groping distance, to sucking on his wife’s fingertips at a political rally, something just doesn’t seem altogether right upstairs with Joe Biden. So what is the real story for dragging Russia, once again, into the internal swamp pit known as Washington, D.C.?

The Bloomberg article provides a big hint: “This time around, the narrative about Biden and Ukraine is … well-publicized and being advanced by Trump, his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani and the president’s Republican allies in Congress.”

And that “narrative” has everything to do with not only the Democrats’ frozen impeachment proceedings against the U.S. leader, which promises to have major connections to Ukraine, Joe Biden and his son Hunter, and quite possibly dozens of other top Democrats. In other words, the Democrats understand that pushing ahead with impeachment could be their ultimate downfall.

Although few Americans seem to remember that back in May of 2019, Trump granted U.S. Attorney General William Barr “full and complete authority” to investigate exactly how claims that Trump was ‘conspiring with the Kremlin’ in the 2016 presidential election had originated, the Democrats certainly have not.

Their bogus ‘Russian collusion’ claim provided the rationale for a four-year-long ‘witch hunt’ that began when the Democrats, relying on the flimsy findings contained in the so-called ‘Steele dossier, managed to get approval from the FISA court to spy on the Trump campaign. Now, some top-ranking Democrats – never imagining Hillary Clinton would actually lose in 2016 – are understandably nervous as to what Barr and his assistant, federal attorney John Durham will divulge to the public in the coming months.

With so much riding on the line in 2020, is anyone surprised that Bloomberg, the news affiliate owned and operated by Democratic contender Michael Bloomberg, is now reporting “U.S. officials are warning that Russia’s election interference in 2020 could be more brazen than in the 2016 presidential race or the 2018 midterm election.”

In other words, the racist ploy used by Democrats to explain their monumental defeat in 2016 did not end with the Mueller Report. The conspiracy theory, promulgated by a media that is in effect just another branch of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), is being primed to explain not only possible criminal charges aimed at top Democrats in the coming months, but how Democrats, like Michael Bloomberg, failed once again to beat the seemingly unstoppable incumbent, Donald Trump.

========================================
* Uit het Clinton verkiezingsteam werden in 2016 mails gelekt waaruit bleek dat Hillary Clinton op een misdadige manier de voorverkiezingen won van Bernie Sanders. Om een rookgordijn over deze zaak te trekken stelde men doodleuk dat de Russen de computers van het verkiezingsteam hadden gehackt en daarna de mails hebben gelekt naar de westerse (massa-) media…. Ofwel Clinton werd niet vervolgd, niet door justitie, niet door de DNC en zelfs een groot deel van de media hielden verder de mond over deze zaak, nee Rusland werd als dader afgeschilderd en zoals eerder gezegd, later zelfs verantwoordelijk gesteld voor het verlies van Clinton in de presidentsverkiezingen van 2016….. Daardoor hebben we nu censuur op het internet en hebben de westerse geheime diensten verregaande bevoegdheden gekregen (oneindig veel meer dan een echte democratie aankan…), inclusief enorme budgetten, zelfs de vrijheid van meningsuiting stelt sindsdien nog maar weinig voor….. Seth Rich, een lid van Clintons team lekte de mails, daar hij kwaad was over het smerige spel van Clinton, hij werd later dood gevonden op straat, vermoord in een roofoverval aldus de politie, terwijl hij zijn zichtbare sieraden nog steeds droeg toen men hem vond, er werd zelfs geen dollar uit zijn portemonnee gestolen…….

Waar bijna niemand over spreekt als het gaat om de impeachment van Trump is het feit dat er definitief iets goed fout zat met Hunter Biden en een paar companen, die wel een enorme berg geld verdienden in een land dat in feite arm is, e.e.a. heeft alles te maken met witwassen……. Eerder al gaf de vader van Biden, Joe Biden toe dat hij Oekraïne onder druk heeft gezet om een openbaar aanklager te ontslaan die een strafrechtelijk onderzoek leidde naar de handel en wandel van o.a. zijn zoon Hunter……* (moet je nagaan, nu gaat de Democratische Partij tekeer tegen Trump die in feite hetzelfde deed als Joe Biden…..)

Zoon en vader griezels Biden, brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…………………

De hysterie over Trump won het echter van deze uiterst vreemde zaak die volgens ingewijden zoals gezegd o.a. met het witwassen van geld had te maken……

Het voorgaande is een opvallende gelijkenis met Hillary Clinton, die eigen misdadig handelen tijdens de Democratische voorverkiezingen in 2016 verdoezelde door te liegen dat Rusland haar mail had gekraakt en de gegevens naar buiten had gebracht….. Een beschuldiging die een enorm aantal zaken aan het rollen heeft gebracht, op grond van deze leugen hebben we nu zelfs censuur op het internet en liegt men telkens weer dat Rusland de verkiezingen elders manipuleert >> geen bewijs maar toch…. Terwijl er kilometers aan dossiers zijn waarin wordt aangetoond dat de VS verkiezingen elders manipuleert en als dat geen effect draait de CIA er haar hand niet voor om een gewelddadige opstand in een dergelijk land te organiseren met het doel een coup te forceren, als ook dat niet helpt wordt een staatsgreep georganiseerd, veelal door leger en politie van het bewuste land onder druk te zetten……

Clinton manipuleerde deze voorverkiezingen, waardoor Bernie Sanders deze verkiezingen verloor, ofwel Clinton heeft deze verkiezingen gestolen van Sanders….. Seth Rich, behorend tot haar campagneteam heeft pissig over dit gore spel de bewijzen daarvoor naar buiten gebracht, dus hij was het die de mails en andere zaken lekte naar de pers….. Echter zonder enige ethisch besef gaf Clinton de Russen de schuld van het inbreken op de servers van het campagneteam en daarmee was Russiagate geboren en werd ‘Clintongate’ ver naar de achtergrond gedrukt…….

Seth Rich werd overigens later vermoord op straat gevonden, volgens de politie een roofmoord, terwijl noch zijn portefeuille, noch zijn zichtbare sieraden werden gestolen……..

Het volgende arttikel waarin Tyler Durden dieper ingaat op de witwaszaak waarbij Hunter Biden was betrokken, werd eerder gepubliceerd op Zero Hedge:

Hunter Biden Denies Ukraine Money Laundering Allegations

Mon, 12/23/2019 – 19:30
Update: Biden has denied the allegations against him and asked the court to strike the filing from the record, claiming the allegations were improperly filed, and may constitute “redundant, immaterial, impertinent or scandalous” material, and that it was a “scheme by a non-party simply to make scandalous allegations in the pending suit to gain some quick media attention.”

Biden also asked for attorney’s fees and costs to address the allegations.
Judge Don McSpadden only agreed that it was improperly filed, striking the evidence on a technicality “as it was not filed in any acceptable manner to this court.”

It is unclear whether it may be re-filed pursuant to (Ark R. Civ. P. 24).
According to the New York Post: “Reached by phone, Dominic Casey, the D&A investigator who filed the papers, refused to say whether his group had been retained by Roberts, or sent the information to the court of its own volition.”

***
A new filing in an Arkansas lawsuit against Hunter Biden claims that the former Vice President’s son “is the subject of more than one (1) criminal investigation involving fraud, money laundering and a counterfeiting scheme.”

Filed by private investigator Dominic Casey of D&A Investigations on behalf of Lunden Alexis Roberts – with whom Hunter fathered a child, Monday’s “Notice of Fraud and Counterfeiting and Production of Evidence” alleges that Hunter Biden and associates Devon Archer and John Kerry stepson Christopher Heinz engaged in a money laundering scheme which accumulated over $156 million between March 2014 and December 2015.

According to the document, Biden, Archer and Heinz became directors of consulting firm Rosemont Seneca Bohai, LLC in order to “conceal their family members ownership,” establishing financial accounts at Morgan Stanley and China Bank, the latter of which was used in a money laundering scheme.

Biden and associates are accused of using the counterfeiting scheme “to conceal the Morgan Stanley et al Average Account Value.

The filing also says that “Family members of DEFENDANT Robert Hunter Biden, Devon Archer and Christopher Heinz are business partners of Serhiy Leshchenko and Mykola Zlochevesky in the Ukraine, and are currently under investigation for their part in the counterfeiting scheme.

Of note, Leshchenko is a former Ukrainian parliamentarian who made headlines in August 2016 for helping to leak the so-called “black ledger” that resulted in the firing of then-Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort – the supposedly ‘debunked’ Ukraine meddling detailed in a November, 2017 Politico article.

Notably, following an outreach to the Ukrainian embassy by Democratic operative Alexandra Chalupa, Artem Sytnyk, Ukraine’s Director of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine and Leshchenko released the “black ledger” containing off-book payments to Manafort. In December of 2018, a Ukrainian court ruled that Sytnyk and Leshchenko “acted illegally” by releasing Manafort’s name – a conviction which was later overturned on a technicality.
Zlochevsky, meanwhile, is the owner of Burisma.

Tulsi Gabbard (Democratische presidentskandidaat) en de gestoken verkiezingen

Kurt Nimmo plaatste op Information Clearing House (ICH) een artikel waarin hij ingaat op de democratische voorverkiezingen en waarin hij aan de hand van o.a. een video aangeeft dat deze verkiezingen nu al zijn gemanipuleerd door de DNC en de rest van de Democratische top, uiteraard met de welwillende medewerking van de reguliere (massa-) media in de VS….* Tulsi Gabbard, één van de Democratische presidentskandidaten voor de verkiezingen in 2020, heeft de bewuste video geplaatst op het internet, een video waarin zij ingaat op deze zaak…….
De top van de Democratische Partij heeft samen met die reguliere media deze voorverkiezingen al gemanipuleerd, waar Nimmo aangeeft dat het absurd is dat men Joe Biden nog als een serieuze kandidaat durft neer te zetten, sterker nog, hij staat nummer 1 op de lijst met kandidaten, althans als Elizabeth Warren deze plek al niet heeft overgenomen…… Biden zit in de zak van de machthebbers (en niet alleen in de Democratische Partij) en wordt daarom voorgesteld als de beste kandidaat, hoe corrupt deze ploert ook is…..
Tulsi Gabbard ziet de verkiezingsdebatten als een brood en spelen voor tv, waar het brood staat voor de zaken die een groot deel van de bevolking aan de staat hebben te danken (een enorm ambtenarenapparaat en dan nog de mensen die afhankelijk zijn van overheidsopdrachten, of bijvoorbeeld van voedselbonnen)….. De spelen of zoals men in de VS zegt het circus is de show, het theatrale en over geregisseerde valse spel, ofwel het is de manier waarop men het volk inpalmt en zoals gezegd met de hulp van de reguliere media……. Nimmo geeft een mooi voorbeeld: mensen vermoorden in verre landen wordt simpelweg als humanitair neergezet, daarnaast stelt men dat de economie het prima doet, terwijl de staatsschuld nooit zo groot is geweest, hetzelfde geldt voor de persoonlijke schulden van de burgers in de VS en dan nog het enorme aantal werklozen en daklozen….**
Lees het volgende artikel van Nimmo en zie de video die Gabbard heeft geopenbaard, onthoud dit als men weer begint over Russische manipulaties en zegt het voort! (overigens heeft ook Ollongren moeten toegeven dat haar beschuldiging aan het adres van de Russen, die onze verkiezingen zouden hebben gemanipuleerd, een belachelijke fantasie was, later meer daarover) Onthoud dat bijvoorbeeld de zogenaamde onafhankelijke media de verkiezingen hier en elders al decennialang manipuleren, neem bijvoorbeeld ook de lastercampagne van de BBC tegen Jeremy Corbyn, als zou hij een antisemiet zijn, dit daar hij volkomen terecht commentaar heeft op het bloedige beleid van de Israëlische regering tegen het verdrukte Palestijnse volk……. Waar de reguliere westerse media Israël behandelen alsof het een mensenrechtenstaat is die het beste voorheeft met al haar bewoners en waar de Palestijnen worden afgeschilderd als een gevaar voor Israël, een land met zo ongeveer het modernste leger op aarde en in het bezit van kernwapens……. (een land dat zelfs chemische wapens*** als witte fosfor inzet tegen de Palestijnen en er geen moeite mee heeft kinderen, invaliden, medisch hulpverleners en echte journalisten te vermoorden en dat daadwerkelijk op grote schaal heeft gedaan en dat zal blijven doen vrees ik….)
ICH 13 oktober 2019:

Tulsi and Rigged Elections

By Kurt Nimmo
Tulsi Gabbard, who has at best minimal support by Democrats (around one percent), and zero from the corporate DNC, posted the following video earlier today

There are so many of you who I’ve met in Iowa and New Hampshire who have expressed to me how frustrated you are that the DNC and corporate media are essentially trying to usurp your role as voters in choosing who our Democratic nominee will be.

October 12, 2019 “Information Clearing House” – This, of course, is nothing new, but thanks to Tulsi for reminding us of how “elections” are conducted. In fact, the state long ago corrupted the process and has selected candidates for long as anybody can remember.

How is it possible a cognitively challenged and corrupt hack like Joe Biden is number one in the running—or was until Elizabeth Warren took that spot away from him? It’s possible because Biden is a trusted asset eager to do whatever he is told, same as Obama, Bush the lesser, Clinton (a “brother by another mother”), Bush the elder, Reagan… on and on, down the line. Like Hillary Clinton, the Democrat establishment believes it is Biden’s “turn” to read the teleprompter. All the others, well, they’re spoilers.

They are attempting to replace the roles of voters in the early states, using polling and other arbitrary methods which are not transparent or democratic, and holding so-called debates which are not debates at all but rather commercialized reality television meant to entertain, not inform or enlighten.

That replacement happened decades ago. Trump won the election because our rulers left the election process intact, arrogantly confident their handpicked candidates will win because only those who have come up through the system are permitted to run. It’s left intact as a public relations gimmick designed to fool the proles who are, regrettably, all too easy to control—or were until Trump appeared on the scene.

Tulsi is spot on about the “debates,” which are nothing of the sort. Indeed, they are a form of televised bread and circuses—bread because most Americans receive some kind of support from the government, and a circus because all circuses are comical, theatrical, and well-scripted.

As for being informed, that’s the last thing the ruling elite want. They have us believe in fantasies so absurd they may as well be props in a Luis Buñuel film—for instance, killing people in foreign lands is humanitarian and the economy is doing great (never mind the unemployed, the homeless, and record debt, both governmental and personal).

In order to bring attention to this serious threat to our democracy, and ensure your voice is heard, I am giving serious consideration to boycotting the next debate on October 15th. I will announce my decision within the next few days. With my deepest aloha, thank you all again for your support.

This is commendable, although, sadly, an almost transparent blip on the political radar screen. Big corporate media will certainly not take notice, and if they perchance do it will be with snide commentary.

The soft totalitarian machine rejects the socialist palliatives of Elizabeth Warren. She appears to be anti-corporatist, and that is inexcusable. Many of our political and social problems are related to the domination of corporations, most of the crony variety.

Elizabeth Warren will be unable to break the corporate stranglehold on America. It is pure insanity to believe otherwise. The Democrat and Republican parties—one party disguised as two—will not savage corporations with taxation and redoubled punitive regulation, not if they wish to remain in Congress and receive money to run obscenely expensive campaigns.

Warren will be overshadowed by the Hildabeast, Hillary Clinton, who is determined to be president. She will enter the race sometime next year, overturning the apple cart of other hopefuls, all spouting the same wealth distribution nonsense because, after all, a well-trained and ceaselessly indoctrinated public, most on a modern version of the Roman Cura Annona grain dole, love free stuff (stolen from others).

No way will the DNC accept Elizabeth Warren as the nominee. She will be subverted, the same way Bernie Sanders was.

Most Americans don’t trust or like Hillary, but that hardly matters.

The days of Trump may soon be over. If he’s not impeached on spurious grounds, he will enter the race under a toxic cloud of accusation and unproven high crimes and misdemeanors greatly amplified by a propaganda media. Polls consistently show he is losing traction, and the MAGA**** crowd is increasingly disillusioned, unable to realize its populist agenda.

I’m sorry, Tulsi. Your effort to unmask the subversion of the election system will largely fall on deaf ears. As of this morning, the above video garnered a mere 800 views.

It will take more than a “debate” boycott to send the message. It will take a revolution to finally drain Trump’s swamp, end the endless wars, and force transnational corporations and foreign governments (most egregiously Israel) out of the bed they have shared for so long with our “representatives,” who are largely nothing more than self-seeking sociopaths on short leashes.

* Media die bijvoorbeeld Sanders, Warren en Gabbard niet wensen als president en deze kandidaten te onpas en te onpas zwartmaken. In Groot-Brittannië is Corbyn wel het meest in het oog springende voorbeeld die door de reguliere media werd gedemoniseerd als antisemitisch en communist (alsof dat laatste een schande is….)

** Waar het werkelijke aantal werklozen veel groter is dan de cijfers doen geloven, daar men net als hier een meer dan belachelijke rekenmethode gebruikt, waarin werklozen met een partner die werk heeft, niet worden meegeteld als werkloos, hetzelfde geldt hier voor bijstandsgerechtigden, die ofwel fysiek of geestelijk afgekeurd zouden moeten worden, of die in feite werkloos zijn en waarvan men weet dat ze nooit weer een baan zullen hebben (vanwege de leeftijd….. En dan toch de pensioenleeftijd opschroeven >> meer dan belachelijk!) In de VS worden bijvoorbeeld daklozen niet gezien als werkloos…..

*** Vergeet voorts niet dat Israël nog steeds chemische wapens produceert en deze verkoopt, samen met Egypte heeft Israël het verdrag tegen chemische wapens niet getekend….. Echt een ‘lekker’ fascistisch apartheidsstaatje dat Israël…… (door de aanname in 2018 van de natiestaatwet is Israël nu officieel een fascistische staat!)

Joe Biden (ex-vicepresident VS) heeft zichzelf fiks in de Oekraïense staart gebeten

Joe Biden, intussen ook behorend tot de enorme ‘elite’ van oorlogsmisdadigers in de VS, was zo ongelofelijk dom om in het openbaar op te lopen scheppen dat hij de Oekraïense neonazi-juntaleider Porosjenko in maart 2016 onder druk heeft gezet, de openbaar aanklager Viktor Shokin te ontslaan.
Biden oefende zoveel druk uit dat hij dreigde VS hulp van 1 miljard dollar aan garanties voor leningen niet te ‘overhandigen’ als er niet in de 6 uur voor zijn vertrek uit Oekraïne stappen tegen Shokin zouden zijn genomen. De zelf zwaar corrupte Porosjenko en zijn marionettenjunta gaven toe en Shokin werd ontslagen……
John Solomon van The Hill heeft het hele verhaal uitgezocht en inderdaad Biden heeft Porosjenko gechanteerd (want daar komt het op neer)….. Echter Solomon ging door met onderzoekingen en kwam erachter dat Shokin bezig was met een corruptiezaak waarbij de zoon van Biden, Hunter Biden en zijn bedrijf betrokken waren, Biden stond zelfs op de lijst om te worden ondervraagd door Shokin…..
Solomon stelt voorts dat het duidelijk is dat Biden op de hoogte was van deze zaak en dat Shokin alleen daarom moest verdwijnen……..
Dan te bedenken beste bezoeker, dat Hillary Clinton destijds minister van BuZa onder dezelfde vicepresident Biden (waar beiden werkten in de Obama administratie), de opstand in Oekraïne kocht voor 4 miljard dollar aan VS belastinggeld, een opstand die tot de coup moest leiden in Oekraïne….. Porosjenko was en is dan ook niets anders dan de zwaar corrupte marionet van de VS…….
Maar jezus wat een zootje beste bezoeker en dan durven de reguliere westerse media en politici te schreeuwen over fake news (nepnieuws) en manipulatie’s door Rusland, zelfs nu nog nadat bekend werd gemaakt dat speciaal aanklager Robert Mueller geen bewijzen heeft gevonden voor smerig spel van de Russen met Trump, ofwel: er zijn geen bewijzen voor de valse ‘Russiagate’ propaganda……

Gezien het voorgaande kan je dan ook concluderen dat alleen het misdadig spel van Clinton en haar campagneteam overblijft….. De misdaad die haar de nominatie tot presidentskandidaat van de ‘Democratische Partij’ bezorgde ten koste van Bernie Sanders….. Een misdaad die waarschijnlijk met hulp van de CIA en de NSA werd gepleegd (immers Sanders wordt als communist versleten in de VS), echter je kan het wel vergeten dat er van overheidswege ook maar één minuut van die misdaad zal worden onderzocht……

Misschien is het direct voorgaande, een uitgebreid onderzoek naar misdadig gedrag van Clinton en haar team, een zaak voor Tyler Durden, wiens hieronder opgenomen artikel werd gepubliceerd op Zero Hedge en door mij werd overgenomen van Anti-Media…. Durden schreef over deze zaak naar aanleiding van het rapport dat Solomon publiceerde; wellicht is een onderzoek naar het misdadig gedrag van Clinton zelfs een zaak voor Solomon.

Tot slot nog het volgende: in mei 2016 trad Joeri Loetsenko aan als nieuwe hoogste openbaar aanklager van Oekraïne en zoals de westerse politici, gesteund door de reguliere westerse media, Shokin de grond inschreven, werd Loetsenko de hemel in geprezen als nieuwe aanklager…… Uiteraard werd door deze ‘geweldige aanklager’ het onderzoek stopgezet naar corruptie waarbij Bidens zoon en bedrijf waren betrokken…… Nee, Loetsenko zou pas echt een ‘corruption fighter’ zijn, zo jubelden die politici en media…… ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!

Forget ‘Creepy’ – Biden Has A Major Ukraine Problem

(ZH) – Joe Biden appears to have made a major tactical error last year when he bragged to an audience of foreign policy experts how he threatened to hurl Ukraine into bankruptcy if their top prosecutor, General Viktor Shokin, wasn’t immediately fired, according to The Hill‘s John Solomon.

In his own words, with video cameras rolling, Biden described how he threatened Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in March 2016 that the Obama administration would pull $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees, sending the former Soviet republic toward insolvency, if it didn’t immediately fire Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin. –The Hill

I said, ‘You’re not getting the billion.’ I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money,’” bragged Biden, recalling the conversation with Poroshenko.
Well, son of a bitch, he got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time,” Biden said at the Council on Foreign Relations event – while insisting that former president Obama was complicit in the threat.

Interviews with a half-dozen senior Ukrainian officials confirm Biden’s account, though they claim the pressure was applied over several months in late 2015 and early 2016, not just six hours of one dramatic day. Whatever the case, Poroshenko and Ukraine’s parliament obliged by ending Shokin’s tenure as prosecutor. Shokin was facing steep criticism in Ukraine, and among some U.S. officials, for not bringing enough corruption prosecutions when he was fired. –The Hill

And why would Biden want the “son of a bitch” fired?
In what must be an amazing coincidence, the prosecutor was leading a wide-ranging corruption investigation into a natural gas firm – which Biden’s son, Hunter, sat on the board of directors.

The prosecutor he got fired was leading a wide-ranging corruption probe into the natural gas firm Burisma Holdings that employed Biden’s younger son, Hunter, as a board member.

U.S. banking records show Hunter Biden’s American-based firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners LLC, received regular transfers into one of its accounts — usually more than $166,000 a month — from Burisma from spring 2014 through fall 2015, during a period when Vice President Biden was the main U.S. official dealing with Ukraine and its tense relations with Russia. –The Hill

The Hill‘s Solomon reviewed the general prosecutor’s file for the Burisma probe – which he reports shows Hunter Biden, his business partner Devon Archer and their firm, Rosemont Seneca, as potential recipients of money.

And before he was fired, Shokin says he had made “specific plans” for the investigation – including “interrogations and other crime-investigation procedures into all members of the executive board, including Hunter Biden.”

I would like to emphasize the fact that presumption of innocence is a principle in Ukraine,” added Shokin.

Joe Biden “clearly had to know” about the probe before he insisted on Shokin’s ouster. Via The Hill:

Although Biden made no mention of his son in his 2018 speech, U.S. and Ukrainian authorities both told me Biden and his office clearly had to know about the general prosecutor’s probe of Burisma and his son’s role. They noted that:

  • Hunter Biden’s appointment to the board was widely reported in American media;

  • The U.S. Embassy in Kiev that coordinated Biden’s work in the country repeatedly and publicly discussed the general prosecutor’s case against Burisma;

  • Great Britain took very public action against Burisma while Joe Biden was working with that government on Ukraine issues;

  • Biden’s office was quoted, on the record, acknowledging Hunter Biden’s role in Burisma in a New York Times article about the general prosecutor’s Burisma case that appeared four months before Biden forced the firing of Shokin. The vice president’s office suggested in that article that Hunter Biden was a lawyer free to pursue his own private business deals.

President Obama named Biden the administration’s point man on Ukraine in February 2014, after a popular revolution ousted Russia-friendly President Viktor Yanukovych and as Moscow sent military forces into Ukraine’s Crimea territory.

***

Key questions for ‘ol Joe:

Was it appropriate for your son and his firm to cash in on Ukraine while you served as point man for Ukraine policy? What work was performed for the money Hunter Biden’s firm received? Did you know about the Burisma probe? And when it was publicly announced that your son worked for Burisma, should you have recused yourself from leveraging a U.S. policy to pressure the prosecutor who very publicly pursued Burisma?

Reality Peeks Through in Ukraine

January 6, 2016
Robert Parry


Exclusive: With corruption rampant and living standards falling, Ukraine may become the next failed state that “benefited” from a neoconservative-driven “regime change,” though the blame will always be placed elsewhere in this case, on the demonized Russian President Putin, writes Robert Parry.

Nearly two years since U.S. officials helped foment a coup in Ukraine partly justified by corruption allegations the country continues to wallow in graft and cronyism as the living standards for average Ukrainians plummet, according to economic data and polls of public attitudes.

Even the neocon-oriented Wall Street Journal took note of the worsening corruption in a Jan. 1, 2016 article observing that “most Ukrainians say the revolution’s promise to replace rule by thieves with the rule of law has fallen short and the government acknowledges that there is still much to be done.”

Actually, the numbers suggest something even worse. More and more Ukrainians rate corruption as a major problem facing the nation, including a majority of 53 percent last September, up from 48 percent last June and 28 percent in September 2014, according to polls by International Foundation for Electoral Systems.

Meanwhile, Ukraine’s GDP has fallen in every quarter since the Feb. 22, 2014 putsch that overthrew elected President Viktor Yanukovych. Since then, the average Ukrainian also has faced economic “reforms” to slash pensions, energy subsidies and other social programs, as demanded by the International Monetary Fund.

In other words, the hard lives of most Ukrainians have gotten significantly harder while the elites continue to skim off whatever cream is left, including access to billions of dollars in the West’s foreign assistance that is keeping the economy afloat.

Part of the problem appears to be that people supposedly responsible for the corruption fight are themselves dogged by allegations of corruption. The Journal cited Ukrainian lawmaker Volodymyr Parasyuk who claimed to be so outraged by graft that he expressed his fury “by kicking in the face an official he says owns luxury properties worth much more than a state salary could provide.”

However, the Journal also noted that “parliament is the site of frequent mass brawls [and] it is hard to untangle all the overlapping corruption allegations and squabbling over who is to blame. Mr. Parasyuk himself was named this week as receiving money from an organized crime suspect, a claim he denies.”

Then, there is the case of Finance Minister Natalie Jaresko, who is regarded by top American columnists as the face of Ukraine’s reform. Indeed, a Wall Street Journal op-ed last month by Stephen
Sestanovich, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, hailed Jaresko as “a tough reformer” whose painful plans include imposing a 20 percent “flat tax” on Ukrainians (a favorite nostrum of the American Right which despises a progressive tax structure that charges the rich at a higher rate).

Sestanovich noted that hedge-fund billionaire George Soros, who has made a fortune by speculating in foreign currencies, has endorsed Jaresko’s plan but that it is opposed by some key parliamentarians who favor a “populist” alternative that Sestanovich says “will cut rates, explode the deficit, and kiss IMF money good-bye.”

Yet, Jaresko is hardly a paragon of reform. Prior to getting instant Ukrainian citizenship and becoming Finance Minister in December 2014, she was a former U.S. diplomat who had been entrusted to run a $150 million U.S.-taxpayer-funded program to help jump-start an investment economy in Ukraine and Moldova.

Jaresko’s compensation was capped at $150,000 a year, a salary that many Americans would envy, but it was not enough for her. So, she engaged in a variety of maneuvers to evade the cap and enrich herself by claiming millions of dollars in bonuses and fees.


Ultimately, Jaresko was collecting more than $2 million a year after she shifted management of the Western NIS Enterprise Fund (WNISEF) to her own private company, Horizon Capital, and arranged to get lucrative bonuses when selling off investments, even as the overall WNISEF fund was losing money, according to official records.


For instance, Jaresko collected $1.77 million in bonuses in 2013, according to WNISEF’s latest available filing with the Internal Revenue Service. In her financial disclosure forms with the Ukrainian government, she reported earning $2.66 million in 2013 and $2.05 million in 2014, thus amassing a sizeable personal fortune while investing U.S. taxpayers’ money supposedly to benefit the Ukrainian people.

It didn’t matter that WNISEF continued to hemorrhage money, shrinking from its original $150 million to $89.8 million in the 2013 tax year, according to the IRS filing. WNISEF reported that the bonuses to Jaresko and other corporate officers were based on “successful” exits from some investments even if the overall fund was losing money. [See Consortiumnews.com’s “How Ukraine’s Finance Minister Got Rich.”]

Though Jaresko’s enrichment schemes are documented by IRS and other official filings, the mainstream U.S. media has turned a blind eye to this history, all the better to pretend that Ukraine’s “reform” process is in good hands. (It also turns out that Jaresko did not comply with Ukrainian law that permits only single citizenship; she has kept her U.S. passport exploiting a loophole that gives her two years to show that she has renounced her U.S. citizenship.)

Propaganda over Reality

Yet, as good as propaganda can be especially when the U.S. government and mainstream media are moving in lockstep reality is not always easily managed. Ukraine’s continuing and some say worsening corruption prompted last month’s trip to Ukraine by Vice President Joe Biden who gave a combination lecture and pep talk to Ukraine’s parliament.

Vice President Joe Biden.

Vice President Joe Biden.

Of course, Biden has his own Ukraine cronyism problem because three months after the U.S.-backed overthrow of the Yanukovych government, Ukraine’s largest private gas firm, Burisma Holdings, appointed his son, Hunter Biden, to its board of directors.

Burisma a shadowy Cyprus-based company also lined up well-connected lobbyists, some with ties to Secretary of State John Kerry, including Kerry’s former Senate chief of staff David Leiter, according to lobbying disclosures.

As Time magazine reported, “Leiter’s involvement in the firm rounds out a power-packed team of politically-connected Americans that also includes a second new board member, Devon Archer, a Democratic bundler and former adviser to John Kerry’s 2004 presidential campaign. Both Archer and Hunter Biden have worked as business partners with Kerry’s son-in-law, Christopher Heinz, the founding partner of Rosemont Capital, a private-equity company.”


According to investigative journalism inside Ukraine, the ownership of Burisma has been traced to Privat Bank, which is controlled by the thuggish billionaire oligarch Ihor Kolomoysky, who was appointed by the U.S.-backed “reform” regime to be governor of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, a south-central province of Ukraine (though Kolomoisky was eventually ousted from that post in a power struggle over control of UkrTransNafta, Ukraine’s state-owned oil pipeline operator).

In his December speech, Biden lauded the sacrifice of the 100 or so protesters who died during the Maidan clashes in February 2014, referring to them by their laudatory name “The Heavenly Hundred.” But Biden made no heavenly references to the estimated 10,000 people, mostly ethnic Russians, who have been slaughtered in the U.S.-encouraged “Anti-Terror Operation” waged by the coup regime against eastern Ukrainians who objected to the violent ouster of President Yanukovych, who had won large majorities in those areas.

Apparently, heaven is not as eager to welcome ethnic Russian victims of U.S.-inspired political violence. Nor did Biden take note that some of the Heavenly Hundred were street fighters for neo-Nazi and other far-right nationalist organizations.

But after making his sugary references to The Heavenly Hundred Biden delivered his bitter medicine, an appeal for the parliament to continue implementing IMF “reforms,” including demands that old people work longer into their old age.

Biden said, “For Ukraine to continue to make progress and to keep the support of the international community you have to do more, as well. The big part of moving forward with your IMF program — it requires difficult reforms. And they are difficult.

Let me say parenthetically here, all the experts from our State Department and all the think tanks, and they come and tell you, that you know what you should do is you should deal with pensions. You should deal with — as if it’s easy to do. Hell, we’re having trouble in America dealing with it. We’re having trouble. To vote to raise the pension age is to write your political obituary in many places.

Don’t misunderstand that those of us who serve in other democratic institutions don’t understand how hard the conditions are, how difficult it is to cast some of the votes to meet the obligations committed to under the IMF. It requires sacrifices that might not be politically expedient or popular. But they’re critical to putting Ukraine on the path to a future that is economically secure. And I urge you to stay the course as hard as it is. Ukraine needs a budget that’s consistent with your IMF commitments.”

Eroding Support

But more and more Ukrainians appear to see through the charade in Kiev, as the poll numbers on the corruption crisis soar. Meanwhile, European officials seem to be growing impatient with the Ukraine crisis which has added to the drag on the Continent’s economies because the Obama administration strong-armed the E.U. into painful economic sanctions against Russia, which had come to the defense of the embattled ethnic Russians in the east.

Many E.U. officials are fed up with Ukraine,” said one Western official quoted by the Journal, which added that “accusations of graft by anticorruption activists, journalists and diplomats have followed to the new government.”

The Journal said those implicated include some early U.S. favorites, such as Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk, “whose ratings have plummeted to single digits amid allegations in the media and among anticorruption activists of his associates’ corrupt dealings. Mr. Yatsenyuk has denied any involvement in corruption and his associates, one of whom resigned from parliament over the controversy this month, deny wrongdoing.”

The controversy over Yatsenyuk’s alleged cronyism led to an embarrassing moment in December 2015 when an anti-Yatsenyuk lawmaker approached the podium with a bouquet of roses, which the slightly built Yatsenyuk accepted only to have the lawmaker lift him up and try to carry him from the podium.

In many ways, the Ukraine crisis represents just another failure of neocon-driven “regime change,” which has also spread chaos across the Middle East and northern Africa. But the neocons appear to have even a bigger target in their sites, another “regime change” in Moscow, with Ukraine just a preliminary move. Of course, that scheme could put in play nuclear war.

Taking Aim

The Ukraine “regime change” took shape in 2013 after Russian President Putin and President Barack Obama collaborated to tamp down crises in Syria and Iran, two other prime targets for neocon “regime changes.” American neocons were furious that those hopes were dashed. Ukraine became Putin’s payback.

In fall 2013, the neocons took aim at Ukraine, recognizing its extreme sensitivity to Russia which had seen previous invasions, including by the Nazis in World War II, pass through the plains of Ukraine and into Russia. Carl Gershman, neocon president of the U.S.-funded National Endowment for Democracy, cited Ukraine as the “biggest prize” and a key step toward unseating Putin in Moscow. [See Consortiumnews.com’s “What the Neocons Want from Ukraine Crisis.”]

Initially, the hope was that Yanukovych would lead Ukraine into an economic collaboration with Europe while cutting ties to Russia. But Yanukovych received a warning from top Ukrainian economists that a hasty split with neighboring Russia would cost the country a staggering $160 billion in lost income.

So, Yanukovych sought to slow down the process, prompting angry protests especially from western Ukrainians who descended on Maidan square. Though initially peaceful, neo-Nazi and other nationalist militias soon infiltrated the protests and began ratcheting up the violence, including burning police with Molotov cocktails.

Meanwhile, U.S.-funded non-governmental organizations, such as the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (which receives money from USAID and hedge-fund billionaire George Soros’s Open Society), hammered away at alleged corruption in the Yanukovych government.

In December 2013, Nuland reminded Ukrainian business leaders that the United States had invested $5 billion in their “European aspirations,” and in an intercepted phone call in early February 2014 she discussed with U.S. Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt who Ukraine’s new leaders would be.

Yats is the guy,” Nuland said of Arseniy Yatsenyuk, as she also disparaged a less aggressive approach by the European Union with the pithy phrase: “Fuck the E.U.” (Nuland, a former aide to ex-Vice President Dick Cheney, is the wife of arch-neoconservative ideologue Robert Kagan.)

Sen. John McCain also urged on the protests, telling one group of right-wing Ukrainian nationalists that they had America’s backing. And, the West’s mainstream media fell in love with the Maidan protesters as innocent white hats and thus blamed the worsening violence on Yanukovych. [See Consortiumnews.com’s “NYT Still Pretends No Coup in Ukraine.”]

Urging Restraint

In Biden’s December 2015 speech to the parliament, he confirmed that he personally pressed on President Yanukovych the need to avoid violence. “I was literally on the phone with your former President urging restraint,” Biden said.

However, on Feb. 20, 2014, mysterious snipers apparently from buildings controlled by the far right fired on and killed policemen as well as some protesters. The bloodshed sparked other violent clashes as armed rioters battled with retreating police.

Although the dead included some dozen police officers, the violence was blamed on Yanukovych, who insisted that he had ordered the police not to use lethal force in line with Biden’s appeal. But the State Department and the West’s mainstream media made Yanukovych the black-hatted villain.

The next day, Feb. 21, Yanukovych signed an accord negotiated and guaranteed by three European nations to accept reduced powers and early elections so he could be voted out of office if that was the public’s will. However, as police withdrew from the Maidan, the rioters, led by neo-Nazi militias called sotins, stormed government buildings on Feb. 22, forcing Yanukovych and other officials to flee for their lives.

In the West’s mainstream media, these developments were widely hailed as a noble “revolution” and with lumps in their throats many journalists averted their misty eyes from the key role played by unsavory neo-Nazis, so as not to dampen the happy narrative (although BBC was among the few MSM outlets that touched on this inconvenient reality).

Ever since, the major U.S. news media has stayed fully on board, ignoring evidence that what happened was a U.S.-sponsored coup. The MSM simply explains all the trouble as a case of naked “Russian aggression.

There were kudos, too, when “reformer” Natalie Jaresko was made Finance Minister along with other foreign “technocrats.” There was no attention paid to evidence about the dark underside of the Ukrainian “revolution of dignity,” as Biden called it.

Though the neo-Nazis sometimes even teamed up with Islamic jihadists were the tip of the spear slashing through eastern Ukraine, their existence was either buried deep inside stories or dismissed as “Russian propaganda.”

That was, in effect, American propaganda and, as clever as it was, it could only control reality for so long.

Even though the fuller truth about Ukraine has never reached the American people, there comes a point when even the best propagandists have to start modifying their rosy depictions. Ukraine appears to have reached that moment.

Deze reli-fascistische psychopaat heeft na de coup in feite de totale macht in Turkije verworven, iets dat het komende jaar vervolmaakt zal worden.

US-NATO-Turkey Invasion of Northern Syria

CIA “Failed” Turkey Coup Lays Groundwork for Broader Middle East War?

By Prof Michel Chossudovsky

September 01, 2016 “Information Clearing House” – “GR” – In mid-July, President Erdogan pointed his finger at the CIA, accusing US intelligence of having supported a failed coup directed against his government. Turkish officials pointed to a deterioration of US-Turkey relations following Washington’s refusal to extradite Fethullah Gülen, the alleged architect of the failed coup.

Erdogan’s Justice Minister Bekir Bozdag was categorical:

If the US does not deliver (Gulen), they will sacrifice relations with Turkey for the sake of a terrorist

Public opinion was led to believe that relations with the US had not only deteriorated, but that Erdogan had vowed to restore “an axis of friendship” with Moscow, including “cooperation in the defence sector”. This was a hoax.

Turkey’s Invasion of Syria

The implementation of the Turkish invasion required routine consultations with the US and NATO, coordination of military logistics, intelligence, communications systems, coordination of ground and air operations, etc. To be effectively carried out these military endeavors required a cohesive and “friendly” US-Turkey relationship.

We are not dealing with a piecemeal military initiative. Turkey’s Operation Euphrates Shield could not have taken place without the active support of the Pentagon, which ultimately calls the shots in the war on Syria.

The likely scenario is that from mid July to mid-August US, NATO and Turkish officials were actively involved in planning the next stage of the war on Syria: an (illegal) invasion led by Turkish ground-forces, backed by the US and NATO.

The Failed Coup Sets the Stage for a Ground Invasion

1. Massive purges within the armed forces and government were implemented in the immediate wake of the July coup. They had been planned well in advance. ”Arrested immediately were 2,839 army personnel with 2,745 Judges and Prosecutors ordered detained… In under a week 60,000 people had been fired or detained and 2,300 institutions closed” … “ (See Felicity Arbuthnot, Global Research, August 2, 2016)

2.The coup was intended to fail. Erdogan had advanced knowledge of the coup and so did Washington. There was no conspiracy directed by the CIA against Erdogan. Quite the opposite, the failed coup was in all likelihood engineered by the CIA in liaison with Erdogan. It was intended to consolidate and reinforce the Erdogan regime as well as rally the Turkish people behind their president and his military agenda “in the name of democracy”.

3. The purges within the Armed Forces were intended to get rid of members of the military hierarchy who were opposed to an invasion of Syria. Did the CIA assist Erdogan in establishing the lists of military officers, judges and senior government officials to be arrested or fired? The Turkish media was also targeted, many of which were closed down.

4. Erdogan used the July 15 coup to accuse Washington of supporting the Gulen movement while seeking a fake rapprochement with Moscow. He flew to St Petersburg on August 9, for a behind closed doors meeting with President Putin. In all likelihood, the scenario of a rift between Ankara and Washington coupled with the “my friend Putin” narrative had been approved by the Obama administration. It was part of a carefully designed intelligence ploy coupled with media disinformation. President Erdogan, vowed according to Western media reports: to restore an ‘axis of friendship’ between Ankara and Moscow amid a growing rift between Turkey and the West.”

5. While “mending the fence” with Russia, Turkey’s military and intelligence apparatus was involved in planning the invasion of Northern Syria in liaison with Washington and NATO headquarters in Brussels. The underlying objective is to ultimately confront and weaken Syria’s military allies: Russia, Iran and Hezbollah.

In St Petersburg in the immediate wake of the July 15 failed coup, Erdogan thanked his “dear friend” Vladimir Putin.

The fact Mr Putin called me the next day after the coup attempt was a very strong psychological factor,” he said at a joint press conference. “The axis of friendship between Moscow and Ankara will be restored,” he said.Telegraph, August 7, 2016

Did Putin know that the failed coup, covertly supported by the CIA, was meant to fail? One suspects that Russian intelligence was aware of the ploy and was also informed regarding Turkey’s invasion plans:

Your visit today, despite a very difficult situation regarding domestic politics, indicates that we all want to restart dialogue and restore relations between Russia and Turkey,” Mr Putin said as the pair met in the city’s Constantine Palace.

Mr Putin on Tuesday said Russia would “step by step” lift sanctions, … Mr Erdogan in turn promised to back major Russian energy projects in Turkey, including the construction of the country’s first nuclear power station and a gas pipeline to Europe.

He also said the two countries would step up “cooperation in the defence sector,” but did not elaborate.

The Putin-Erdogan Saint Petersburg meeting was interpreted by the media as a rapprochement with Moscow in response to the alleged involvement of the CIA in the failed coup.
According to the Washington Post, an improvised about-turn in US-NATO-Turkey relations had occurred despite Erdogan’s “friendly” encounter with Putin:

NATO went out of its way Wednesday to insist that Turkey — whose president this week visited Moscow and promised a new level of cooperation with the man he repeatedly called his “dear friend,” Russian President Vladi­mir Putin — remains a “valued ally” whose alliance membership “is not in question.”

In a statement posted on its website, NATO said it was responding to “speculative press reports regarding NATO’s stance regarding the failed coup in Turkey and Turkey’s NATO membership.”

A nonsensical report. In actuality, the Pentagon, NATO, the Turkish High Command and Israel are in permanent liaison. Israel is a de facto member of NATO, it has a comprehensive bilateral military and intelligence relationship with Turkey.

With the invasion of the border area of Northern Syria and the influx of Turkish tanks and armoured vehicles, the Turkey-Russia relationship is in crisis. And that is the ultimate objective of US foreign policy.

Russian forces are acting on behalf of their Syrian ally.

How will the Kremlin and Russia’s High Command respond to what constitutes a US-Turkey-NATO ground invasion of Syria?

How will they confront Turkish and allied forces? One assumes that Russia will avoid direct military confrontation.

After the US, Turkey is NATO’s heavy weight.

Sofar the Turkish op is limited to a small border territory. Nonetheless it constitutes and important landmark in the evolution of the Syria war: invasion of a sovereign country in derogation of international law. Washington’s endgame remains “regime change” in Damascus.

Is the military initiative a preamble for a larger military undertaking on the part of Turkey supported by US-NATO? In many regards, Turkey is acting as a US proxy:

Turkey’s incursion was backed by US air-cover, drones, and embedded special forces per the WSJ. These were there largely to prevent Russia and Syria from even thinking about taking action against the invading forces.

Turkey is moving into Syria not just with its own military, but with thousands of “rebel opposition groups” including US-backed FSA brigades allied with AlQaeda/Nusra/Sham and the child head-chopping al-Zinki who are reported to form the vanguard. Syrian territory is outright being turned over to them by the Turkish military, simply exchanging control from one group of terrorist jihadis (ISIS) to others who are more media acceptable and more direct proxies of the Erdogan regime, the U.S., Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

That said, ISIS has not resisted the Turkish advance at all – simply “melting away” (or exchanging one set of uniforms for another?). (Moon of Alabama

Do the SAA Syrian forces have the military capabilities of confronting Turkish ground forces without Russian and Iranian support? How will Tehran react to the influx of Turkish forces? Will it come to the rescue of its Syrian ally?

An “incident” could be used as a pretext to justify a broader NATO-led war. Article 5 of the Washington Treaty (NATO’s founding document) states under the doctrine of “collective security” that an attack against one member state of the Atlantic Alliance (e.g. Turkey) is an attack against all members states of the Atlantic Alliance.

Dangerous crossroads. With the incursion of Turkish ground forces, military confrontation with Syria’s allies, namely Iran and Russia, is a distinct possibility which could lead to a process of escalation beyond Syria’s borders.

The Erdogan-Jo Biden Meeting

From Washington’s perspective, this ground invasion sets the stage for a possible annexation of part of Northern Syria by Turkey. It also opens the door for the deployment of US-NATO ground force operations directed against central and southern Syria.

Erdogan met up with Vice President Biden on August 23, following the influx of Turkish tanks into Northern Syria. The invasion is carefully coordinated with the US which provided extensive air force protection. There is no rift between Ankara and Washington, quite the opposite:

It [is] difficult to believe that Turkey truly suspected the US of an attempted decapitation of the nation’s senior leadership in a violent, abortive coup just last month, only to be conducting joint operations with the US inside Syria with US military forces still based within Turkish territory.

What is much more likely is that the coup was staged to feign a US-Turkish fallout, draw in Russia and allow Turkey to make sweeping purges of any elements within the Turkish armed forces that might oppose a cross-border foray into Syria, a foray that is now unfolding. (See The New Atlas, Global Research, August 24, 2016)

Media reports convey the illusion that the Biden-Erdogan meetings were called to discuss the extradition of the alleged architect of the failed coup Gulen. This was a smokescreen. Jo Biden who had also met Erdogan back in January, gave the green-light on behalf of Washington for a joint US-Turkey-NATO military incursion into Syria.

The Kurdish Question

The invasion is not directed against Daesh (ISIS) which is protected by Ankara, it is geared towards fighting SAA forces as well as Kurdish YPG forces, which are “officially” supported by the US. The US supported ISIS-Daesh and Al Qaeda affiliated rebels are working hand in glove with the Turkish invaders.

The invasion is also part of a longstanding project by Turkey of creating a “safe-haven” within Northern Syria (see map above) which can be used to extend US-NATO-Turkey military operations Southwards into Syria’s heartland.
Washington has warned its Kurdish allies not to confront Turkish forces:

Biden said the Kurds, who Turkey claims intend to establish a separate state along a border corridor in conjunction with Turkey’s own Kurdish population, “cannot, will not, and under no circumstances will get American support if they do not keep” what he said was a commitment to return to the east.

Washington will no doubt eventually clash with Ankara with regard to Turkey’s project of territorial expansion in Northern Syria. Washington’s longstanding objective is to create a Kurdish State in Northern Syria, within the framework of a territorial breakup of both Syria and Iraq. (see US National War Academy map below). In a bitter irony, this “New Middle East” project also consists in annexing part of Turkey to the proposed Kurdish State. In other words, Turkey’s New Ottoman objective of territorial expansion encroaches upon Washington’s design to fragment Iraq, Syria, Iran as well as Turkey. In other words, America’s ultimate imperial design is to weaken Turkey as a regional power.

The Pentagon has defined a military roadmap: “The road to Tehran goes through Damascus.” The invasion of Northern Syria creates conditions for a broader war.

Moreover, on the US agenda is a longstanding objective, namely to wage war on Iran. In this regard, US military strategy largely consists in creating conditions for America’s staunchest allies (Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Israel) to confront Iran, and act indirectly on behalf of US interests. i.e. “do the job for us”.

MAP OF THE NEW MIDDLE EAST

Note: This map was prepared by Lieutenant-Colonel Ralph Peters. It was published in the Armed Forces Journal in June 2006, Peters is a retired colonel of the U.S. National War Academy. (Map Copyright Lieutenant-Colonel Ralph Peters 2006).

Although the map does not officially reflect Pentagon doctrine, it has been used in a training program at NATO’s Defense College for senior military officers. This map, as well as other similar maps, has most probably been used at the National War Academy as well as in military planning circles.

The failed coup was indeed supported by the CIA, but the failure was coordinated with President Erdogan. It was an intelligence op which was meant to fail and mislead public opinion.
