War is Business

Saudi press

....because all the wise people in the world who are experts on American policy and who analyze the images and the videos [of 9/11] agree unanimously that what happened in the [Twin] Towers was a purely American action, planned and carried out within the U.S. Proof of this is the sequence of continuous explosions that dramatically ripped through both buildings. … Expert structural engineers demolished them with explosives, while the planes crashing [into them] only gave the green light for the detonation...

Prize Winning Journalist Chris Hedges Says USA Should Expect a Revolution

"If you’re a journalist, you manipulate facts,” says renegade reporter Chris Hedges at the start of this illuminating Vice interview. “I did it for a living.”

Hedges is an award-winning reporter who spent years in war zones as a foreign correspondent for the New York Times. He now writes political books in addition to a weekly column for Truthdig.com, and he continues to support the work of many activist groups (“I’m surrounded by all these people with piercings and tattoos,”Hedges grins. “That’s where I get my energy from. I think they’re great”).

Chris Hedges is known for his refreshingly honest and intelligent analysis of the world. He’s a self-proclaimed anti-Capitalist who was heavily involved in the 2011 Occupy movement. In this interview with Vice Canada, included below, Hedges claims the movement was “heavily infiltrated by the authorities,” as many activists suspected at the time. “That’s not even a question,” Hedges replies with a wave of the hand.He also discusses the corporate press and laments the death of mainstream investigative journalism of the kind that brought Watergate to the public’s knowledge. Those days are gone, Hedges says, pointing out that corporate shareholders and advertisers dictate news content and angles to such an extent that they have killed real news-gathering.

“The mainstream media doesn’t do journalism. The alternative media does far more real journalism than commercial media. News and the truth are not the same thing. If everybody in power doesn’t dislike you, you’re probably not doing your job properly.”

Hedges also talks about North America’s worrying slide into corporate oligarchy, saying:

“If we remain passive, we are accepting the death sentence being handed to us by these corporate forces. We need mass civil disobedience.”

He is hopeful that people are starting to wake up to the reality of how the world really works. “The game is fixed, and once people know the game is fixed, it gets very dangerous”.

This thought led Hedges to write a new book suggesting the USA is on the edge of a mass revolt, and he cites rising gun crime as just one symptom of this growing unease and frustration. In the video below, Hedges outlines the ‘recipe’ for revolution, and suggests that if it ended with us overthrowing the banking elite, “It wouldn’t be such a bad thing.”

Chris Hedges on What It Takes To Be a Rebel in Modern Times

From Wall Street corruption to why the elites in corporate media have eviscerated traditional investigative journalism, Chris Hedges tries to make sense of the world we live in…

Did Hillary help create isis ?

http://thefreethoughtproject.com/4-minutes-cbs-news-anchor-explains-created-isis/

"The US created and funded a terrorist regime in Syria that would be used to destabilize the region and create a specific advantage for American interests over China and Russia."

Now remember, the reporter said this all happened, according to the paper work from the dod, in 2012. Hillary Clinton left the Secretary of State office in 2013. So, did Hillary know about this? Why is she not being questioned about this? Something to think about during this election year.

40 counties funding ISIS

http://thefreethoughtproject.com/putin-shares-intel-g20-exposing-isis-financed-40-countries/

Antalya, Turkey – Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced that he has shared intelligence with the other G20 member states, which reveals the 40 countries from which ISIS finances the majority of their terrorist activities. The list reportedly included a number of G20 countries.

“I provided examples based on our data on the financing of different Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) units by private individuals. This money, as we have established, comes from 40 countries and, there are some of the G20 members among them,” Putin told reporters.

In addition to discussing the need to stop the flow of donor money to ISIS, Putin also reiterated the need to stop the illegal oil trade by ISIS.

“I’ve shown our colleagues photos taken from space and from aircraft which clearly demonstrate the scale of the illegal trade in oil and petroleum products,” he said.“The motorcade of refueling vehicles stretched for dozens of kilometers, so that from a height of 4,000 to 5,000 meters they stretch beyond the horizon,” Putin said.

The Islamic State makes an estimated $50 million a month from selling crude from captured oilfields in Iraq and Syria, according to Iraqi intelligence and U.S. officials.

According to a report by Business Insider:

Oil sales — the extremists’ largest single source of continual income — are a key reason they have been able to maintain their rule over their self-declared “caliphate” stretching across large parts of Syria and Iraq. With the funds to rebuild infrastructure and provide the largesse that shore up its fighters’ loyalty, it has been able to withstand ground fighting against its opponents and more than a year of bombardment in the U.S.-led air campaign.

It’s worth noting that within the past 24 hours the U.S. has launched its first strike against an ISIS oil convoy. Prior to Monday, the United States had refused to strike the over 1,000 ISIS controlled tanker trucks out of a stated concern about causing civilian casualties, a dubious assertion at best.

The NY Times reported:

Intensifying pressure on the Islamic State, United States warplanes for the first time attacked hundreds of trucks on Monday that the extremist group has been using to smuggle the crude oil it has been producing in Syria, American officials said.

According to an initial assessment, 116 trucks were destroyed in the attack, which took place near Deir al-Zour, an area in eastern Syria that is controlled by the Islamic State.

The airstrikes were carried out by four A-10 attack planes and two AC-130 gunships based in Turkey.

While the U.S. claims these new operations were planned well in advance of the terrorist attacks in Paris, one can’t help but be suspicious of the timing of the U.S. change in tactics. It seems that the U.S. is being forced closer to the Russian position in the wake of the attacks in France.

During the press conference, Putin went on to stress that an international coalition is needed to more effectively counter the terrorist group, noting Russia’s readiness to support the fight against ISIS.

“Some armed opposition groups consider it possible to begin active operations against IS with Russia’s support. And we are ready to provide such support from the air. If it happens it could become a good basis for the subsequent work on a political settlement,” Putin said.“We really need support from the US, European nations, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Iran,” the Russian president added.

In the wake of the claimed ISIS attacks in Paris, perhaps the NATO contingent involved in Syria will now realize that removing Assad is not the primary goal, and that fighting ISIS is the actual mission.

Proxy war

Climate conference

This was going on in Paris during the attacks. Was someone going to spill the beans on climate change, that it's all false? Coincidence? Let us know in the comments below.

Russia on their own side?

ISIS is trying to take down Syria, ISIS was supported by the United States. Russia is trying to help the people of Syria. So, of course they won't team with the west to help with Syria because they think the West is helping ISIS, and could be, to take over Syria. This whole thing is not good, and the main stream media is feeding the American people with so many lies.

Is this the beginning?

France's only aircraft carrier to leave for the Middle East.   https://www.rt.com/news/321873-france-aircraft-carrier-Syris/ 
This was announced just moments after the disasters happened. It takes a lot to deploy a carrier. Was this planned? There is something going on here, a hidden agenda with the U.S.?
