Nieuwe Russische hack samenzweringstheorie t.a.v. Joe Biden ‘schokt’ VS Democraten

Joe
Biden en zijn zoon Hunter hebben een smerig spel gespeeld met het
Oekraïense bedrijf Burisma, waar Hunter Biden een godsvermogen verdiende en zich schuldig maakte
aan corruptie en witwassen……. Joe Biden heeft dit NB zelf toegegeven daar hij de Oekraïense regering liet weten dat het een openbaar aanklager moest ontslaan, daar men anders een miljard aan wapensteun van de VS kon vergeten….. En waarom deed Biden dit? Juist, omdat die openbaar aanklager zijn zoon vervolgde voor corruptie en witwassen… Met andere woorden: als er niets aan de hand was geweest had een dergelijk onderzoek immers niets opgeleverd, dus waarom een land dan onder druk zetten?? 

In de VS is nu
een nieuwe samenzweringstheorie gelanceerd waarbij de Russische
geheime dienst GROe de schuld in de schoenen geschoven krijgt voor het
besmeuren van Democratisch presidentskandidaat Joe Biden (en zijn
zoon Hunter) en hen beschuldigt van corruptie en witwassen, dit zou zijn gebeurd na een ‘phishing aanval’ van de Russen op Burisma, de firma waar topgraaier Biden zich zoals gezegd schuldig maakte aan corruptie en witwassen…… Zoals je kon lezen, is Hunter Biden wel degelijk een corrupte misdadiger…..

Een
herhaling van zetten in 2016, toen Hillary Clinton geheel misdadig de
Democratische voorverkiezingen won ten koste van Bernie Sanders….
Toen e.e.a. op straat belandde doordat Seth Rich*, een lid van
Clintons campagne team, goed pissig was over het gedrag van Clinton
en alles in de openbaarheid gooide, leidde dit tot de
belachelijke claim dat de Russen de servers van het campagne team
hadden gehackt en de boel naar de pers hadden gelekt…… Clinton ging
vrijuit en als een waanzinnige gingen de reguliere westerse media in
de Koude Oorlog modus met hun belachelijke beschuldigingen aan het adres van Rusland…… Nog steeds houden deze media en de meeste
westerse politici de leugen vol dat Rusland de verkiezingen in de VS
manipuleerde ten gunste van Trump….

Niet een
flinter aan bewijs voor deze claim, hetzelfde geldt voor de claim dat Rusland de boel op scherp zou hebben gezet, maar er is wel bewijs voor Bidens misdadig gedrag en ondanks dat dit duidelijk is, wordt deze nu vrijgepleit van corruptie en witwasserij, daar deze claim ‘weer’ een streek van de Russische staat zou zijn…..
Uiteraard springen dezelfde westerse reguliere media hier weer
bovenop, immers als men Rusland kan besmeuren staat men kwijlend vooraan……

Establishment
Pundits Go Nuts Over New Russian Hacking Conspiracy

by
Caitlin
Johnstone

The
New York Times
 reports
that GRU operatives launched a successful “phishing attack”
on the Ukrainian gas company at the heart of scandalous allegations
about Joe Biden, and establishment pundits are falling all over
themselves to tweet the hottest take on this exciting new Russia
conspiracy.

The
story itself fails the smell test on a number of fronts. It falsely
claims
that allegations of Biden’s corrupt dealings with Ukrainian officials
as vice president have been “discredited”, and its only
named source is a cybersecurity firm with
foundational
ties

to 
the
NSA and to Crowdstrike
,
which you may remember as
the
extremely shady Atlantic Council-tied

company at the heart of the plot hole-riddled 2016 Russia hacking
narrative (whose founder 
is
now a billionaire
).

The
article also of course lacks any hard evidence for its claims, and is
of course completely silent on any details as to how the security
firm knows that the alleged hackers were both (A) Russian and (B)
tied to the Russian government. This is par for course with mass
media news reporting on anything negative about Russia, where all
journalistic standards have gone out the window and nobody suffers
any professional consequences for even
the
most egregious misreporting

on that nation.

And,
naturally, liberal pundits are guzzling it down like Mike Pompeo left
alone at the table with the gravy boat.

I
don’t know if you’ve ever seen a man trying to run with an erection,
but FYI** it’s the most ridiculous-looking thing you can
possibly ever witness. And the mad scramble of conservative Democrats
to say something viral about this new angle on an entirely exhausted
theme puts one in the mind of a whole platoon of men running
completely tumescent at full sprint.

“I
hope my fellow editors will think hard — really hard, a lot harder
than they did in 2016 — before publishing any material hacked by
the Russians,”
tweeted editor-in-chief
of
The
Daily Beast
 Noah
Shachtman in response to the NYT report.

It
is very revealing that the head of a major mainstream publication
believes news outlets should sit on a story exposing the corruption
of a leading presidential candidate–no matter how newsworthy–if
it’s believed to have come from “the Russians”. How many
major stories are being spiked for no other reason than a loyalty to
the US government’s geopolitical agendas against noncompliant
nations, exactly?

Yet
sentiments identical to Shachtman’s are currently being bleated by
like-minded pundits throughout the Twitterverse right now.

“Me
and Oliver Darcy took at look at this a year ago… newsrooms
hadn’t a lot to say about it. Not a lot of self-reflection, it
seems,”
tweeted
CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan in response to Shachtman’s post. “Hackers
could target the 2020 election. How will newsrooms respond if they
release stolen data?”

“Russians
working hard for President Trump’s reelection: mainstream media do
not need to collaborate with the Russians again and breathlessly
promote their non-newsworthy findings, as they did in
2016,” economist David Rothschild 
tweeted,
without specifying his peculiar definition of “non-newsworthy”.

“Will
the media run info from national security hacks as blockbuster
stories like in 2016? That’s the million-dollar question,”
tweetedMichigan

A
CNN reporter took it up even further, preemptively speculating based
on
literally
nothing

that any evidence of Biden’s corruption which emerges from the
phishing campaign will have been “doctored” by Russia.

“Russia
could leak Burisma emails, and slip in some doctored emails, to harm
Biden later on, if he is the Democratic nominee,”
tweeted
CNN’s Marshall Cohen. “The 2016 playbook all over again.”

This
insanity was seconded and then ratcheted up even further by MSNBC’s
Malcolm Nance, whose main job seems to be to push the Overton window
of Russia hysteria toward the craziest end of the spectrum.

DNC
2.0,” Nance wrote.
“To protect Trump the GRU will manufacture and insert Black
propaganda, fake emails in a data base Burisma emails to implicate
Biden and support Trump. They don’t care if you believe it … it’s
all to get Trump to believe it. He’ll destroy America to win.”

MSNBC
analyst and former Obama administration official Richard Stengel, who
has
openly stated

that he endorses the US government propagandizing its citizens,
seized on the opportunity offered by this lawless feeding frenzy to
advance a completely baseless Russiagate theory, because why the hell
not?

“‘Russia,
if you’re listening, hack Burisma.’ GRU has done same thing to this
Ukrainian firm that they did to DNC,”
tweeted
Stengel. “If Trump asked Zelensky on a public call to
investigate the Bidens, what do you suppose he asked Putin on a
private call? Vlad, do me a favor.”

“More
evidence that Putin fears Biden and is actively trying to help
Trump,”
added
the Obama administration’s Michael McFaul. “Not good. All who
believe in American sovereignty should denounce, Democrats and
Republicans alike.”

“I’ll

popular #Resistance pundit Brooklyn Dad Defiant in what could
generously be described as a very odd confession.

Here we go again, a Russian hacking playbook right out of 2016.

There
is at this time no legitimate reason to believe that the GRU was
involved in any kind of cyberattack on Burisma, let alone that it
found anything worth publishing. At the moment the only information
we’ve gleaned from this incident is more insight into the fact that
the news media environment of the most powerful nation on earth is
deeply, profoundly unhealthy, and so are the individuals operating
within it.

These
are the people who shape the dominant narrative. These are the
thought leaders, who really do lead the way a very large sector of
the population thinks. We need to bring more consciousness to how
wildly dysfunctional this is.

2020
has been wild already. And all signs indicate that it’s only going to
get a whole lot crazier.

Seth Rich werd kort na zijn klokkenluiden vermoord op straat gevonden, volgens de politie een roofoverval, terwijl hij nog in het bezit was van zijn opzichtige sieraden en geld……..

** FYI: ter kennis name (t.k.n.), of
:ter informatie

Zie ook:

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

Hunter Biden zit in de Oekraïense ‘witwas val’

Joe Biden heeft al lang toegegeven dat hij Oekraïne onder druk zette een openbaar aanklager te ontslaan die zijn zoon vervolgde

Snowden vindt het ongelofelijk dat de media VS politici niet aanspreken op totaal verschillende reacties n.a.v. ‘klokkenluiden’

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

Oekraïne, een mislukte, corrupte en fascistische staat……..‘ (o.a. met aandacht voor Biden en zijn zoon)

VS stelt Duitsland een ultimatum (chantage): geen Russisch gas via NS2 anders volgt een handelsoorlog…..
Chantage o.a. ten behoeve van het Oekraïense bedrijf Burisma waar
Hunter Biden voor werkt. Intussen heeft Trump aangekondigd dat de
bedrijven, o.a. een deels Nederlands bedrijf, die blijven meewerken aan
Nord Stream 2 (NS2) gesanctioneerd zullen worden…..
Zie voorts: ‘Donald
‘Darth Vader’ Trump verklaart ruimte tot oorlogsgebied en laat
Duitsland en haar bedrijven weten dat men zich heeft te schikken naar de
VS wensen

Russiagate geslaagd: geen impeachment van Trump, waar Clinton en haar team na bewezen misdaden vrijuit gaan…..

Nancy
Pelosi, de ‘Speaker of the House’ (nee, bepaald geen B&O speaker) heeft
laten weten dat ze geen behoefte heeft aan een impeachment (afzetten) van Trump
over Russiagate…… ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!
ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!

Na 2
jaar lang schreeuwen over Russiagate, zonder ook maar een flinter aan
bewijs, waar het woord ‘impeachment’ niet van de lucht was, durft
Democraat Pelosi te zeggen dat ze geen reden ziet om Trump af te
zetten…….

Russiagate
was niets anders dan een doofpot voor het misdadig optreden van
Clinton en haar campagneteam, ofwel: Russiagate truc geslaagd: Trump
ten onrechte beschuldigd van samenspannen met Rusland*, (nogmaals) terwijl de
misdaden van Clinton en haar campagne team onder het tapijt zijn
geveegd!! Het gaat hier om de enorme misdaad van de kandidaatstelling diefstal
door Clinton en haar team, de kandidaatstelling voor het presidentschap van de VS van haar partijgenoot Bernie Sanders….. 

Sanders was veel te ‘links’ voor de apparatsjiks van de Democraten, dus voor figuren als Clinton en Obama, vandaar dat de boel zo werd gemanipuleerd dat Sanders deze voorverkiezingen verloor…… De aanduiding ‘Clintongate’ zou dan ook moeten worden gebruikt, i.p.v. Russiagate………. 

Vergeet niet dat de hele Russiagate hysterie heeft gezorgd voor censuur op het internet**, iets waarvoor westerse politici en de reguliere westerse media, regimes als dat in China aan de paal nagelen…… Niet alleen dat, er worden kapitalen uitgegeven ‘om te voorkomen’ dat Russiagate zich kan herhalen….. 

In Nederland heeft hare D66 akeligheid Ollongren het gore lef te stellen dat Rusland hier ook de boel manipuleert en reken maar dat ook aan de bestrijding van die fantasie enorme kapitalen aan belastinggeld worden verspild…….. Waar de schrijvers op sites die vertellen wat er echt gebeurd in de wereld, werden en worden afgeschilderd als Russische trollen……. Denk daaraan als je volgende week en in mei in het stemhok staat, niet alleen D66 is volkomen fout op dit gebied, maar ook partijen als de VVD, CDA, PvdA, CU, SGP en GroenLinks……

Nancy
Pelosi Tacitly Admits That Russiagate Is Bullshit

March
12, 2019 at 12:34 pm

Written
by 
Caitlin
Johnstone

(CJ Opinion) — In
an 
interview
with the 
Washington
Post
 yesterday,
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that she opposed the impeachment
of President Trump. This comes shortly before Mueller’s
investigation into Trump-Russia collusion is 
expected
to wrap up
.

I’m
not for impeachment,” Pelosi told the Post. “This is news. I’m
going to give you some news right now because I haven’t said this
to any press person before. But since you asked, and I’ve been
thinking about this: Impeachment is so divisive to the country that
unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and
bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it
divides the country. And he’s just not worth it.”

The
response to Pelosi’s remarks has been swift and strong.

Wrong!” exclaimed MSNBC’s
Russiagate 
con
man
 Malcolm
Nance via Twitter. “What the hell is wrong with the @SpeakerPelosi
Congress that they absolve themselves of their duty! Nothing is
criminal anymore?! Trump can do and say like a dictator as he
pleases? All of his crimes are OK even if you see them? This requires
a public outcry. #Disgraceful”

I
like Speaker Pelosi but this is NOT the right
approach,” 
tweeted Michael
Avenatti of Stormy Daniels fame. “If Trump has committed
impeachable offenses, he must be charged and he must face a trial in
the Senate. Would the Repubs take this approach? Hell no! And this is
why we get outplayed.”

Sorry,
Madam Speaker,” 
tweeted Esquire’s
Charles P Pierce. “If you really believe the president* is an
unprecedented threat to the Constitution, your oath demands that you
begin the process to remove him. It’s your job.”

Malcolm Nance

@MalcolmNance

Wrong! What the hell is wrong with the @SpeakerPelosi Congress that they absolve themselves of their duty! Nothing is criminal anymore?! Trump can do and say like a dictator as he pleases? All of his crimes are OK even if you see them? This requires a public outcry. .

The
House’s most virulent Russiagater, however, sang a different tune.

If
the evidence isn’t sufficient to win bipartisan support for this,
putting the country through a failed impeachment isn’t a good
idea,” said Congressman Adam Schiff 
told
CNN
 yesterday.

As
you might expect, those voices in alternative media who’ve been
voicing skepticism of the Russiagate narrative since the beginning
have been having a ball with this one.

BREAKING:
The Democrats’ Congressional leadership is realizing that their
two-year Russia conspiracy theory is not going to pan
out,” 
tweeted journalist
Aaron Maté, who has been in my opinion the single most lucid
Russiagate critic for a long time now.

If
Trump is literally controlled by Putin to the point where Trump is
forced to act in the best interests of Russia *at the expense of the
US* — which has been the prevailing claim not of Dem fringes
but its mainstream — how can it be morally justified not to
impeach him???” 
tweeted journalist
Glenn Greenwald in response to Pelosi’s comments.

How
indeed? Pelosi’s comments go completely against the narrative that
mainstream Democrats have been selling America for over two years
now, and this close to the Mueller report amount to a rejection of
that narrative. Her statement is a tacit admission that she knows
Russiagate is bullshit, has always been bullshit, and will continue
to be bullshit.

Glenn Greenwald

@ggreenwald

Anyone who actually believed Putin controls Trump, Trump subordinates US interests to Russia, and that Trump conspired with a foreign adversary to win an election – as Schiff has spent 2 years screaming he’s seen *conclusive* evidence for – would have a duty to try to impeach:

Manu Raju

@mkraju

House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff tells me he agrees with Pelosi on impeachment: “If the evidence isn’t sufficient to win bipartisan support for this, putting the country through a failed impeachment isn’t a good idea.”

Is
it possible that Putin has something on Pelosi?” Greenwald 
joked.
“Or perhaps Democratic politicians and their media allies have been
knowingly feeding the party base and cable viewers unadulterated,
deranged, unhinged bullshit that they now can’t carry through on
with the power in their hands because it was all self-serving,
manipulative dreck? Anyone who has ever believed Trump is controlled
and blackmailed by Putin to the point that Putin makes Trump
treasonously sacrifice America’s interests for Russia’s — and
there are a lot of you — should be marching in fury in the
streets over Pelosi’s refusal to impeach Trump.”

But,
of course, they will not. There will be no protest against Pelosi’s
opposition to impeachment because those who would lead it know there
will never be any evidence that could possibly lead to a bipartisan
willingness in the Senate to remove him from office.

Anyone
who’s paid close and intellectually honest attention to the
Russiagate circus has known since the beginning that Trump was never
going to be impeached for a treasonous conspiracy with the Russian
government, despite the endless fantasies inflicted upon the
blinkered Maddow muppets day after day after day for over two years
now. Back in 2017 
I
said
 that
“Mueller will continue finding evidence of corruption throughout
his investigation, since corruption is to DC insiders as water is to
fish, but he will not find evidence of collusion to win the 2016
election that will lead to Trump’s impeachment,” because it was
obvious to anyone who knew anything. And that has proven to be the
case with uninterrupted consistency.

If
those who have been driving the Russiagate conspiracy theory really
believed what 
they’ve
been pushing
,
they would be up in arms at Pelosi’s remarks. Instead, we see
responses like Russiagate 
grifter Bill
Palmer publishing 
a
hilarious article
 titled
“Nancy Pelosi is playing rope-a-dope with Donald Trump on
impeachment”, explaining that her remarks were actually a brilliant
57-D chess maneuver designed to “play this Trump fool like fiddle.”

Instead,
by answering the question in this manner, Pelosi accomplishes two
things,” says the 
Palmer
Report
,
where 
sitting
US senators
 and top
Harvard law professors
 go
for the important updates they need to continue fueling Russia
hysteria in America. “First, she manages to put off the question
until she and her allies have managed to carve Donald Trump up.
Second, she’s messing with him. She just 
insulted him
by saying he’s not worth the trouble of impeachment. Pelosi is
looking to bait Trump into publicly feuding with her over the
question of impeachment. That way it’ll be Trump introducing the
concept, not her. And that’ll serve to help put the impeachment
process on the right track. Just don’t call it ‘impeachment’
quite yet.”

So
that tells you a bit about where the Russiagaters are at today.

This
all comes out, by the way, at the same time as 
a
new 
Wall
Street Journal
report
 that
Trump once attempted to personally cajole German Chancellor Angela
Merkel into ceasing to buy gas from Russia out of fear that “it
will make Europe’s largest economy excessively reliant on Russian
energy.” Hardly the behavior you’d expect from a Putin puppet,
but then neither are the rest of the 
many,
many other actions
 that
this administration has taken against the interests of Moscow.

Aaron Maté

@aaronjmate

As Democratic elites back off impeachment & collusion after pushing it for 2 years, perhaps voters will conclude they’ve been misled. And perhaps a backlash will benefit the wing of the party those same elites have used the Trump-Russia hype to ward off: the actual progressives.

It
is right and appropriate that those few voices on the left who’ve
been sharply critical of Russiagate from the beginning are now taking
some time to gloat at and mock its peddlers with increasing scorn.
The centrists who chose to spend more than two years forcing
everyone’s energy into this blatant psyop which 
escalated
a cold war
 against
a nuclear superpower were wrong, and the leftists who objected to it
were right. Trump’s term is more than halfway over, and
Russiagaters chose to suck all the oxygen out of the room for this
brainless, fruitless, worthless endeavor instead of allowing space
for progressive reform and for criticism of Trump’s actual
pernicious policies from the left. And they did it on purpose.

Mock
the Russiagaters. Mock them ruthlessly, and never, ever let them
forget the horrible thing that they did. Never stop making fun of
them and reminding them how stupid and crazy they acted during this
humiliating period of American history. And never stop using it as a
weapon against them. They were wrong, so they should not be leading
the way on what passes for America’s political left today.
Skepticism was the only appropriate response to Russiagate in a
post-Iraq invasion world, and those on the left who made that
appropriate response should be treated with infinitely more respect
and deference than those who did not.

They
were wrong, we were right, and now even Nancy Pelosi is all but
admitting it. Never let them forget it.

VS oorlogshitsers wijzen hysterisch op aanslag als teken dat VS in Syrië moet blijven

De
suïcide aanslag in het Syrische Manbij waarbij 2 militairen van de VS en 2 VS ‘burgers’ die samenwerken met het VS leger (ofwel
huursoldaten) omkwamen, was het sein voor de reguliere media in de VS
om hysterisch te gillen dat IS niet is verslagen en de VS moet
doorgaan met haar illegale oorlog in Syrië….. IS heeft inderdaad de
aanslag opgeëist, maar dat heeft IS intussen al zo vaak onterecht
gedaan, dat het maar de vraag is of deze aanslag inderdaad door deze
terreurorganisatie is uitgevoerd.

De
schrijver van het hieronder opgenomen artikel, Caitlin Johnstone
heeft zich goed pissig gemaakt over de reactie van de reguliere media
in de VS, terwijl deze reactie volledig voorspelbaar was en is….
Maakt verder niet uit, de meer dan belachelijke reacties van de verschillende
media-oorlogshitsers zijn het lezen meer dan de moeite waard. 

Met het voorgaande geven de reguliere massamedia in de VS nog eens aan dat ze volkomen in de zak zitten van: -de oorlogshitsers in het Pentagon, -de geheime diensten van de VS, -de wapenfabrikanten (inclusief de fabrikanten van rollend, varend en vliegend oorlogstuig), -de NAVO en -de oliemaffia (de laatsten verdienen in tijden van oorlog ook fiks meer)….. Overigens ook banken, de farmaceutische maffia en aandeelhouders kunnen fikse winsten boeken door oorlogsvoering…. (zo verdiende Nederland zich scheel aan de raffinage van cocaïne tijdens WOI, waar Nederland alle legers die in Frankrijk vochten van deze drug voorzag….)

War
Whores Scramble to Say Syria Attack Means US Troops Must Remain

January

Written

(CJ Opinion) — A
suicide bombing in Manbij, Syria 
has
reportedly killed 19 people
 including
four Americans, two of whom were US soldiers and two of whom worked
with the US military. ISIS, which 
has
an extensive history
 of
falsely claiming responsibility for attacks it had nothing to do
with, 
has
claimed responsibility

for the attack. Despite the fact that ISIS would claim responsibility
for a housewife stepping on a Lego block, and despite the complete
absence of evidence that it had anything to do with the deadly
explosion, all the usual cheerleaders of endless war are pointing to
the Manbij suicide bombing and shrieking “See?? Trump said ISIS is
defeated and it’s 
not!”

ISIS
is still a very real threat here,” CNN international corespondent
Clarissa Ward 
told
Jake Tapper
 from
northern Syria. “And the real concern that we are hearing over and
over again on the ground, Jake, is that when US troops withdraw, a
power vacuum is created, and that only gives them more strength.”

Virulent
Syria war pundit Charles Lister, who is notorious for 
praising
Al Qaeda
 and
is a 
senior
fellow
 at
the 
Gulf
state-funded
 neoconservative
think tank Middle East Institute, told AFP that this attack
invalidates Donald Trump’s order last month to withdraw troops from
Syria.

Trump’s
order was reckless and driven far more by domestic political concerns
than it was by facts on the ground,” Lister said, adding, “To
suggest ISIS is ‘defeated’ because it no longer controls
territory is to fundamentally misunderstand how ISIS and similar
organizations seek to operate.”

Former
John McCain ventriloquism dummy Lindsey Graham pounced like a rat on
a cheese doodle on the opportunity to call for continued US troop
presence within hours of the attack, interrupting the confirmation
hearing of Attorney General nominee William Barr with an 
ejaculation
about Trump’s Syria withdrawal
.

Senator this morning spoke about the attacks on American service members in Manbij, Syria.

I
would hope the President would look long and hard at where he’s
headed in Syria,” Graham said after repeating the baseless claim
that the attack was perpetrated by ISIS. “I know people are
frustrated, but we’re never going to be safe here unless we’re
willing to help people over there who will stand up against this
radical ideology.”

Not
to be left out when there are moronic war agendas to be sold, Fox
News 
leapt
into the fray
 with
a quote from an anonymous foreign diplomat saying “This attack
today is a direct result of the announcement made by President Trump
that U.S. forces are pulling out. These troops had a bullseye on them
when the president telegraphed that he was ordering a pullout.”

ISIS
has already claimed responsibility for today’s suicide attack, a
reminder that the group is not defeated,” added Fox’s Jennifer
Griffin.

MSNBC’s
deranged intelligence analyst Malcolm Nance topped everyone as usual
with a babbling nonsensical post about how US troops were killed in
Manbij because there were no US troops in Manbij, proving that Assad
and Putin may have allowed the attack to happen, which proves Trump
is a Russian asset.

The
moment Russia and Assad took over patrolling Manbij on Trumps go
ahead we get hit with suicide bombers for the first time. It’s
possible Russia/Assad let the attack happen. Trump’s treachery on
this matter now kills our special operators. #RussianAsset,”
Nance 
tweeted between
huffs of paint thinner.

Other
voices are treating the reports about the bombing with a little more
skepticism.

If
ISIS were smart it would hold its fire especially against
Americans,” 
tweeted professor
and author Max Abrahms. “The main justification for leaving Syria
is the (contested) assessment ISIS is defeated. ISIS attacks convey
the opposite, weakening the strategic rationale of withdrawal while
making it politically harder.”

Ok,
so Trump announces that the U.S. will begin a phased withdrawal from
Syria, which according to his critics, would only benefit ISIS who
they say is still operational and would welcome a U.S. pull out. But
not waiting for pull out ISIS then targets U.S. troops! Yeah
right,” 
tweeted former
Green Party vice presidential nominee Ajamu Baraka.

These
are interesting points. If ISIS is indeed responsible for the
bombing, as war pundits are unquestioningly asserting is the case,
then they’re either really, really stupid or they really want US
troops to remain in Syria. Or perhaps the attack was engineered by
someone else who has a vested interest in keeping a US military
presence in Syria, either using ISIS as a patsy or completely
separate from ISIS. Wouldn’t be the first time a suspicious attack
took place in Syria while the Trump administration was working to
withdraw troops.

Of
course, this whole debate ignores the most obvious point of all: that
if there was no US military presence in Syria, there would be no US
military personnel being killed in Syria. The fight against the
terrorist forces who nearly overtook the nation with the help of the
western power alliance’s imperialist support have been beaten to
the brink of total defeat not by the US, but by the Syrian government
and its allies. If US troops were removed Damascus would quickly
restore stability to the region and continue rebuilding the
war-ravaged nation. But this is precisely what these war whores do
not want.

Syria
is a strategically crucial geopolitical nation for reasons having to
do with natural resources and the 
power
dynamics of Israel, Iran,
 and
the empire-aligned Gulf states. It is not a coincidence that so much
energy gets poured into this small stretch of land and its
surrounding nations by the western military alliance and its
propaganda machine, and it’s unlikely that the global dominators
will lose interest in Syria any time soon. Stay skeptical.
