Europe angry that US profits from Ukraine proxy war while destroying EU economy

EU leaders are furious that the US is making lots of money from the proxy war in Ukraine by selling weapons and exporting expensive natural gas. Meanwhile European industries are being destroyed as high energy prices and US subsidies push its companies to go overseas.   by Ben Norton   Part 1   Cracks are emerging in the NATO alliance. Numerous Western corporate media outlets have published reports showing growing political divisions between the United States and European Union. EU leaders are angry that the US is making lots of money from the proxy war in Ukraine, both by selling vast quantities of weapons and by making Europe reliant on its expensive liquified natural gas (LNG), instead of Russia’s significantly cheaper pipeline gas. Meanwhile, European economies suffer from high inflation rates and an energy crisis that make manufacturing so expensive and uncompetitive it could bankrupt entire industries.   Politico published an article in November detailing precisely this, titled

Corruption exposed: US meddled in Ecuador’s election, using Julian Assange as bargaining chip

A former minister of Ecuador testified that the US government conspired with a right-wing political party to run a disinformation campaign against the leftist Correísta movement, backing a millionaire banker for president in exchange for giving up journalist Julian Assange, who had asylum in the Ecuadorian embassy.    by Ben Norton   Part 4 - Corrupt Ecuadorian official conspired with Miami-based oligarchs who stole millions from their people   Yet the scandal goes even deeper. Monge was not the only right-wing opposition figures whom Capaya was conspiring with. As a fugitive from justice living in Miami in late 2016 and early 2017, Capaya also met with right-wing multimillionaire bankers from Ecuador’s notorious Isaías family. The Isaías Brothers, William and Roberto, are ferociously anti-Correa oligarchs who fled their country of birth and moved to the United States, with millions of dollars of stolen money, during Ecuador’s economic crash of 1998 and 1999. This massive crisis, known

Liberal hypocrites now oppose lockdowns in China

The Jimmy Dore Show   Remember when truckers protesting COVID restrictions in Canada were labeled fascists, white supremacists and terrorists? Well would it surprise you to learn that many of the same people who lodged these accusations at the truckers are now actively supporting the lockdown protesters in China? How can they do that, you ask? Simple. Because they’re hypocrites.  

Massive anti-Russian ‘bot army’ exposed by Australian researcers

An Australian university has unearthed millions of Tweets by fake ‘bot’ accounts pushing disinformation on the Ukraine war.    by Peter Cronau   Part 4 - Critical tool in information warfare   This new research paper confirms mounting fears that social media has covertly become what the researchers call ‘ a critical tool in information warfare playing a large role in the Russian invasion of Ukraine ’. The Adelaide University researchers tried their best to be noncommittal in describing the activities of the fake Twitter accounts, although they had found the vast majority – over 90 percent – were anti-Russian messages. They stated: ‘ Both sides in the Ukrainian conflict use the online information environment to influence geopolitical dynamics and sway public opinion. ’ They found the two main participating sides in the propaganda war have their own particular goals and style. ‘ Russian social media pushes narratives around their motivation, and Ukrainian social media aims to foster and

EXPOSED: The most extensive case of covert pro-Western information operation on social media

Declassified Australia exposes and analyses a massive secret propaganda operation being run out of the US, that has been buried by Western media. by Peter Cronau   Part 8 - The Middle East cluster   The Middle East cluster used its covert assets to focus on issues primarily related to Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen. This group ‘ chiefly promoted narratives seeking to undermine Iran’s influence in the region ’. It did this through a spread of inflammatory allegations and stories designed to influence audiences. Several fake Twitter accounts ‘ posed as Iraqi activists in order to accuse Iran of threatening Iraq’s water security, and flooding the country with crystal meth ’. ‘ Other assets highlighted Houthi-planted landmines killing civilians, and promoted allegations that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine will lead to global food crisis. ’ Multiple assets posted similar content, similarly timed, that was clearly being shared and coordinated.

failed evolution With the means of production in its hands, the billionaire class will fully decouple itself from the rest of the society after full automation. It will mark the total breaking of the social contract. Now, imagine what could happen next with a tiny elite possessing armies of killer robots and weapons of mass destruction in an overpopulated planet with almost drained natural resources.

Day 1325: Julian Assange still in prison and under slow-motion execution by the Anglo-American imperialist criminals

failed evolution   On 11 April 2019, the Ecuadorian government of traitor Lenin Moreno, invited the Metropolitan Police into the Ecuadorian embassy in London, and they arrested Julian Assange . Since then, Assange is kept in Belmarsh high security prison in London, without actual charges.   The real reason world's number one political prisoner is still kept in this high security prison, is because he exposed horrendous war crimes carried out by the US imperialists and their allies.   The ruthless Western imperialist regime wants to punish the No1 real journalist in the world and make him an example for any Whistleblower or real journalist who will attempt to expose its big crimes in the future.   And the Anglo-American axis has now become officially a fascist coalition , framed by the rest of its Western pets. UK's Home Secretary Priti Patel, one of the most ruthless ever, decided to extradite Julian Assange to US. No surprise of course. The only question we had in mind is
