Πάνω από τρία εκατομμύρια οι πρόσφυγες στη Συρία

Ασύλληπτο το μέγεθος της ανθρωπιστικής καταστροφής

“Το ρεκόρ των τριών εκατομμυρίων ξεπερνούν σήμερα οι Σύροι πρόσφυγες, εν μέσω αναφορών για ολοένα αυξανόμενες τρομακτικές συνθήκες στο εσωτερικό της χώρας - πόλεις, όπου οι άνθρωποι μαστίζονται από την πείνα και οι πολίτες στοχοποιούνται ή γίνονται θύματα της γενικευμένης βίας.”

“Σχεδόν οι μισοί από όλους τους Σύρους έχουν ήδη αναγκαστεί να εγκαταλείψουν τα σπίτια τους για να διασωθούν. Ένας στους οκτώ Σύρους έχει καταφύγει εκτός συνόρων, δηλαδή ένα εκατομμύριο περισσότεροι άνθρωποι από ό, τι πριν από ένα χρόνο. Επιπλέον, 6,5 εκατομμύρια άνθρωποι έχουν εκτοπιστεί στο εσωτερικό της Συρίας. Πάνω από το ήμισυ των ξεριζωμένων είναι παιδιά.”

“Οι πρόσφυγες που διασχίζουν την έρημο προς την ανατολική Ιορδανία αναγκάζονται να πληρώνουν τεράστια ποσά τους διακινητές, τα οποία κυμαίνονται από 100 δολάρια ανά άτομο ή περισσότερα, προκειμένου να τους μεταφέρουν στην ασφάλεια.”

“Η Συριακή κρίση έχει καταστεί η μεγαλύτερη ανθρωπιστική κατάσταση έκτακτης ανάγκης της εποχής μας, αλλά ο κόσμος αδυνατεί να ικανοποιήσει τις ανάγκες των προσφύγων και των χωρών που τους φιλοξενούν,”

“Η Ύπατη Αρμοστεία ανησυχεί επίσης ιδιαίτερα για την τύχη των πολλών εκατοντάδων Σύρων που βρίσκονται παγιδευμένοι στον καταυλισμό προσφύγων Al Obaidy στο Al Qa'im του Ιράκ, τα γραφεία και τις αποθήκες του οποίου αναγκάστηκαν να εγκαταλείψουν οι υπηρεσίες του ΟΗΕ και διεθνείς ΜΚΟ. Η Ύπατη Αρμοστεία αναφέρει ότι τοπικοί συνεργάτες της συνεχίζουν να παρέχουν προμήθειες και συντήρηση, ωστόσο η κατάσταση παραμένει ρευστή.”

“Πολλοί νεοαφιχθέντες προσφύγες αναφέρουν ότι η απόφασή τους να φύγουν από τη Συρία ήταν η έσχατη λύση. Ένας αυξανόμενος αριθμός, περιλαμβανομένων περισσότερων από τους μισούς που καταφεύγουν στο Λίβανο, είχαν μετακινηθεί στο εσωτερικό της Συρίας τουλάχιστον μία φορά προτού φύγουν, και ένας στους δέκα είχαν μετακινηθεί περισσότερο από τρεις φορές. Μια γυναίκα ανέφερε στην Υ.Α. ότι μετακινήθηκε κοντά στις 20 φορές, πριν τελικά καταφύγει στο Λίβανο.”

“Ένα αυξανόμενο ποσοστό των πρόσφατων αφίξεων - έως και 15% στην Ιορδανία, για παράδειγμα - πάσχουν από μακροχρόνιες ιατρικές παθήσεις όπως διαβήτη, καρδιακές παθήσεις και καρκίνο, και έφυγαν αφού πλέον στην Συρία δεν ήταν σε θέση να λαμβάνουν την κατάλληλη ιατροφαρμακευτική φροντίδα.”

“Μόνο κατά το περασμένο έτος, 1.7 εκατομμύρια πρόσφυγες έλαβαν επισιτιστική βοήθεια, 350,000 παιδιά φοιτούσαν σε σχολεία, και 400,000 διέμεναν σε προσφυγικούς καταυλισμούς. Από την αρχή της κρίσης το 2011, η Ύπατη Αρμοστεία έχει προβεί στην εγγραφή προσφύγων με τη μεγαλύτερη ταχύτητα από οποιαδήποτε άλλη προσφυγική κρίση στην ιστορία της.”

GAME OVER, Trump: Putin, China & BRICS Just CRUSHED US Dollar

Danny Haiphong Donald Trump's war on BRICS is backfiring as the Russia & China-led Global South moves to dump the US dollar and build a new order independent of its dictates. Journalist and geopolitical analyst Ben Norton breaks it all down. Related: Trump's tariffs: A unique opportunity for BRICS and the Global South to fully escape from dollar tyranny

WikiLeaks reveals that literally every router in America has been compromised

The latest Wikileaks Vault7 release reveals details of the CIA’s alleged Cherry Blossom project, a scheme that uses wireless devices to access users’ internet activity. globinfo freexchange As cyber security expert John McAfee told to RT and Natasha Sweatte: Virtually, every router that's in use in the American home are accessible to hackers, to the CIA, that they can take over the control of the router, they can monitor all of the traffic, and worse, they can download malware into any device that is connected to that router. I personally, never connect to any Wi-Fi system, I use the LTE on my phone. That's the only way that I can be secure because every router in America has been compromised. We've been warning about it for years, nobody pays attention until something like WikiLeaks comes up and says 'look, this is what's happening'. And it is devastating in terms of the impact on American privacy because once the router...

Confirmed: Alex Jones' popularity rises after Infowars banning from social media

globinfo freexchange We wouldn't expect to be confirmed so fast on this. A few days ago in the article IT and social media supergiants have just made Alex Jones a hero in the eyes of the ultra-conservative audience , we wrote that Alex Jones' wet dream has just become reality thanks to the combined move by Facebook, Apple, YouTube and Spotify to ban Infowars. These private IT and social media companies couldn't give a better gift to him right now. At a time where Infowars was going through a saturated period according to the best scenario, the corporate giants actually saved it with that stupid(?) strategy. Suddenly, a corporate branch of the liberal establishment gave real value to Alex Jones' awful performance, pretending to be the 'anti-establishment' hero - just like Donald Trump - and made him a real hero in the eyes of the ultra-conservative audience that has been brainwashed by his absurd conspiracy theories. Only a couple of days later...

Stephen Hawking confirms: The problem is Capitalism, not robots!

globinfo freexchange According to world famous physicist Stephen Hawking, the rising use of automated machines may mean the end of human rights – not just jobs. But he’s not talking about robots with artificial intelligence taking over the world, he’s talking about the current capitalist political system and its major players. On Reddit, Hawking said that the economic gap between the rich and the poor will continue to grow as more jobs are automated by machines, and the owners of said machines hoard them to create more wealth for themselves. The insatiable thirst for capitalist accumulation bestowed upon humans by years of lies and terrible economic policy has affected technology in such a way that one of its major goals has become to replace human jobs. If we do not take this warning seriously, we may face unfathomable corporate domination. If we let the same people who buy and sell our political system and resources maintain control of automated technology, the...

CIA had an agent at a newspaper in every world capital at least since 1977

Joel Whitney is a co-founder of the magazine Guernica, a magazine of global arts and politics, and has written for many publications, including the New York Times and Wall Street Journal. His book Finks: How the C.I.A. Tricked the World's Best Writers describes how the CIA contributed funds to numerous respected magazines during the Cold War, including the Paris Review, to subtly promote anti-communist views. In their conversation, Whitney tells Robert Scheer about the ties the CIA’s Congress for Cultural Freedom had with literary magazines. He talks about the CIA's attempt during the Cold War to have at least one agent in every major news organization in order to get stories killed if they were too critical or get them to run if they were favorable to the agency. And they discuss the overstatement of the immediate risks and dangers of communist regimes during the Cold War, which, initially, led many people to support the Vietnam War. globinfo freexchange...

How normal human behavior became a false mental disorder epidemic

globinfo freexchange In the early nineties, an epidemic of mental disorder was sweeping America and Britain. It had been uncovered by a new system for identifying disorders. Psychiatry had been attacked for relying on the personal and fallible judgement of psychiatrists. But instead, a new objective method based on checklists had been invented. These listed only the objective symptoms, and deliberately did not enquire into why the individuals felt an anxiety. In the late 80s, nationwide surveys had revealed an incredible picture: more than 50% of Americans suffered from mental disorders. But at the very same, the drug companies had announced that they had created a new type of drug, called an SSRI, which they claimed, targeted the circuits inside the brain that were causing these malfunctions. The SSRIs were marketed under names like "Prozac". What they did was alter the amounts of serotonin that flowed across the circuit connections within the brain, and they...

Confirmed: US imperialists wanted to drag Russia into a war with Ukraine since at least 2019

globinfo freexchange As we wrote in our previous article, after almost eight years, the US imperialists and the NATO criminals got what they wanted. They finally managed to drag Russia into a war with Ukraine. We now have indisputable evidence for that, through a document by the top US think tank, RAND Corporation. In the preface of a 2019 report under the title Extending Russia, Competing from Advantageous Ground we read: [emphasis added] The purpose of the project was to examine a range of possible means to extend Russia. By this, we mean nonviolent measures that could stress Russia’s military or economy or the regime’s political standing at home and abroad. The steps we posit would not have either defense or deterrence as their prime purpose, although they might contribute to both. Rather, these steps ar...
