Facebook Tyrant
I saw a post about remembering the US shoot down of the Iranian airliner (Iran Air Flight 655) in 1988, and Facebook had a flag warning that it was “fake news” MOUTHPIECE OF Pentagon
Facebook is a protector and preserver of the propaganda classifying IR Iran as a dangerous terrorist organization. But FB knows well, that USA is the biggest terrorist country in the world. USA invades other countries just to own their natural resources and to place them in the hands of American corporations. Facebook doesn’t call that terrorism. They call it democracy. Leave FB
➽➜R⇢➤=RESEARCH ➽=ALL
FB is marking this as “partly false information, checked by independent fact checkers” and then linking to some Spanish language fact checking site named “Observador” which ranks the post at the upper end of their “deceiver” scale based on the site’s analysis asserting that the US in reality apologised, while ignoring the fact that all military personnel involved were decorated for their actions in taking down the plane.

The site, by the way, contains almost no information about where it is bases, how it is funded, or other information which relates to its own credibility. Conclusion: Partly false

The information in this post is a mix of true and false statements or it could simply be incomplete. In some cases, the information is misleading.

Saudi Arabia Pays the US $500 Million to Host Their Troops
Rebecca Rebarich, Pentagon spokeswoman, expressed that the payment was “the first contribution” in a burden-sharing partnership between the both countries to support regional security.
Saudi Arabia paid Washington a sum of US$500 million last month to cover part of the cost of United States troops stationed in the kingdom as bilateral talks over defense expenses continue, a Pentagon spokeswoman Commander Rebecca Rebarich told Middle East Eye Friday.

Trump’s Iran ‘Punching Bag’: US Provocations to Continue Iran knows it is Trump’s foreign policy punching bag. It has been since Trump came to office. More blows against Iran are yet to come in this election year.
Trump’s assassination of Iran’s general and senior diplomat, Soleimani, was a clear provocation by the U.S., designed to produce a further escalated military response by Iran. That did not happen. Iran did not take the bait. It responded minimally and appears to have done so in a way to avoid US deaths or even major U.S. asset destruction. https://www.telesurenglish.net/opinion/Trumps-Iran-Punching-Bag-US-Provocations-to-Continue-20200111-0008.html
Iran Warns against Politicization of Ukrainian Plane Incident TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Seyed Abbas Mousavi reminded the government of Canada that Tehran has been fully cooperative with all affected countries whose nationals have lost their lives during the plane incident of January 8, and called on Ottawa to avoid politicizing the incident.
“This is strange that the Canadian FM, only a day after doing initial measures and besides Iran’s full cooperation, reads such a statement and asks for a consular access, which was agreed upon and delivered accordingly by Iran on the first day of the incident due to human aspects of the issue,” Mousavi said on Friday, after the London meeting of officials from 5 countries whose citizens died in an unintentional downing of Ukrainian flight in the Southwestern outskirt of Tehran. https://en.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13981027000384

It’s a true reflection of how the Western so-called civilized, so-called democratic world pulls the knives out when Iran defends itself, whereas for example, when the US shot down an Iranian passenger plane in 1988 the so-called civilized, so-called democratic world did not say sorry. President Bush said he would never apologize for anything the Us did, whether it was right or wrong.
NYT Hypocrisy: Bashing Nonbelligerent Iran, Supporting US Aggression
by Stephen Lendman (stephenlendman.org — Home — Stephen Lendman)
The Times never met a US war of aggression, or one planned, against an invented enemy it didn’t wholeheartedly endorse and cheerlead.
Nor did it ever stand up for the sovereign rights of nonbelligerent states on the US target list for regime change, vilifying them instead, providing press agent services for US imperial interests.
Throughout its near-41 year history, the Times demonized the nonbelligerent Islamic Republic of Iran, a nation championing peace and stability, threatening no one. https://stephenlendman.org/2020/01/nyt-hypocrisy-bashing-nonbelligerent-iran-supporting-us-aggression/?fbclid=IwAR3zgI3bMl8rTBcu49FQukT6dZbW5moM83XEoXVVR4sh8KqfTaqakkFrcmU

Trump Calls for New Iran Nuclear Deal that Renders the Country Defenceless Last week, Trump called for a new Iran nuclear deal, claiming:
“(W)e must all work together toward making a deal with Iran that makes the world a safer and more peaceful place (sic).”
That’s precisely the JCPOA’s aim — even though the world community knows Iran’s nuclear program has no military component, never did, abhors nukes, wants them eliminated everywhere, and banned their development internally.
It’s well know that the Islamic Republic never attacked another country, threatening none except in self-defense if attacked, its legitimate right under international law.
The way to “make the world a safer and more peaceful place” is for the US to end its forever wars on one country after another.https://www.globalresearch.ca/trump-calls-new-iran-nuclear-deal-renders-country-defenseless/5700939

It shows by imposing unlawful sanctions on Russia and other nations on the US target list for regime change, harming their economies from reduced trade, along with violating international law.

KEY ARCHITECT OF 2003 IRAQ WAR IS NOW A KEY ARCHITECT OF TRUMP IRAN POLICY
January 16 2020, 4:23 p.m.
DAVID WURMSER WAS a longtime advocate of war with Iraq in the Bush administration. Eventually, he got what he wanted, and it was a total disaster. Now, Wurmser again has the ear of a president — this time, Donald Trump — and his sights are set firmly on Iran.
An influential neoconservative in President George W. Bush’s White House who became a significant force behind the push for war with Iraq in 2003, Wurmser has recently been serving as an informal adviser to the Trump administration, according to new reporting from Bloomberg News. In that capacity, Wurmser helped make the case for the recent drone strike that assassinated Iranian Gen. Qassim Suleimani. https://theintercept.com/2020/01/16/david-wurmser-iran-suleimani-iraq-war/?fbclid=IwAR1vo5FCyOy9wAyiNrEFp8mNWC1FVCIkfd1gwvjEGsSIQ1Tb_Uw5OQ_BAUA

The U.S. is adamant that its assassination of Qassem Soleimani and refusal to leave Iraq is about protecting Americans, but a little known Iraqi parliamentary session reveals how China increasingly strong ties to Baghdad may be shaping America’s new Mideast strategy. by Whitney Webb Since the U.S. killed Iranian General Qassem Soleimani and Iraqi militia leader Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis earlier this month, the official narrative has held that their deaths were necessary to prevent a vague, yet allegedly imminent, threat of violence towards Americans, though President Trump has since claimed whether or not Soleimani or his Iraqi allies posed an imminent threat “doesn’t really matter.” https://www.mintpressnews.com/hidden-parliamentary-session-revealed-trump-motives-iraq-china-oil/264155/?fbclid=IwAR1lFdtiFyX-eRSg3VxxIEZLyBbNBPU35w_QKufSPovOfD1XMaQF977L7M4(IMAGE: Chris Graham, New Matilda)

Lost Country: Aboriginal Flags Have Begun Flying At Half Mast Around Australia
By Chris Graham on January 17, 2020Aboriginal Affairs
An Aboriginal woman from Victoria is hoping that First Nations people and organisations around the nation will join her university in flying Indigenous flags at half mast, to acknowledge the grief Aboriginal people are feeling at the destruction of Country from Australia’s ongoing bushfire crisis.
Associate Professor Gabrielle Fletcher is a Gundungurra woman from the Blue Mountains of New South Wales. She’s also a Professor in Indigenous Studies and the Director of the Institute for Koorie Education at Deakin University in Melbourne. https://newmatilda.com/2020/01/17/for-country-lost-aboriginal-flags-have-begun-flying-at-half-mast-around-australia/?fbclid=IwAR3X_oFdzE0BIYUQ6Jr_BoTS7x-erokNg01K6h9ra1YpDXN8Q2qhW6zsVa8

Chris Graham January 17, 2020 “Aboriginal and non-Indigenous Australians all understand that by lowering a flag we acknowledge that something has died or that something is dying. It is a symbol of mourning. There are so many people who are feeling anguish.”
Assoc Prof Fletcher said the scale of the loss felt by First Nations people was enormous, and it wasn’t just restricted to the land and its animals.
“Country moves beyond landscape, allotment, vista or wildlife as stand-alone components. It is also place, Ancestors, shadows, mist, warble, maps and vapour,” she said.
“When Aboriginal People lose Country to this scale we lose Knowledge, Ways, Forms, Spirit and Healing — these are a complex interconnection, where everything has its place to teach, feel, show and speak.
“With each loss we slip further away from understanding who we are, and how we fit — this is the ultimate death in many respects.”
Assoc Prof Fletcher acknowledged there were some positives to come out of the fire crisis, beyond waking people up to the realities our nation faces.
“People are starting to recognise and acknowledge the validity and value of Indigenous Knowledges, and ways of knowing, being and doing. It’s been an uncomfortable discovery for some.”
US officials must face execution (after fair trial) for ordering Soleimani assassination: Scholar
It would appear the big and powerful United States is no longer a country based on the rule of law. I suspect this happened as a result of being taken over by the wealth and power of the talmud zionists. Thus, the zio-american empire will probably follow the path of all earlier military empires, and that will be a good thing. I suspect the human problems found in any big empire are based on size and on the sociopaths who take over and control the theft and murder of humans. In my review of history, I’ve not seen any small empires. Small is …

I think the killing was ordered and planned by Mossad, for Netanyahu and his troubles. I think Pompeo was picked for Trump by the Mossad/Likud because these evangelicals are so easily managed and manipulated. Iraq, Syria, Libya had to go because they were secular: Religiosity, race, fundamentalism, moral superiority is the wheelhouse of Israel/Saudi Arabia. Besides the Iraq diplomat, did they not murder 7 other people who were with the group? Or bystanders? I like those numbers; who was Iraqi, who was Iran, ages, sex, and relation to that fire bombed car.

Turkey deploys more militants from Syria to Libya to help protect Tripoli-based GNA: Report Roughly 2,000 members of Turkish-backed Takfiri terrorist groups in Syria have reportedly arrived in Libya to fight on the battlefields in support of the embattled Tripoli-based Government of National Accord (GNA).
Informed sources, requesting anonymity, told Syria’s official news agency SANA that more than 1,700 Turkey’s proxies, who have been accused of war crimes and human rights abuses while fighting on behalf of Ankara in northern Syria, had recently reached the North African country to come to the aid of Libyan Prime Minister Fayez al-Sarraj in the face of a months-long campaign by his rival, renegade military commander Khalifa Haftar. https://www.presstv.com/Detail/2020/01/18/616510/Turkey-sends-more-Syria-militants-to-Libya-to-help-protect-Tripoli-based-GNA:-Report?fbclid=IwAR1w06MtwLqkVj4iEWNnQa_MDFqefH0b63GWQJoABSsuUvKhuSu3M4ZOhzM

Tens of thousands of Iraqis have taken to the streets in the capital Baghdad, and other cities in the south and center of the country, to protest against the presence of foreign forces in the country and to demand a new government to be formed.
Friday’s demonstrations have witnessed new slogans against the United States, while attacking certain parties in power, accusing them of working for foreigners and betting on the country’s future.
The capital Baghdad witnessed mass demonstrations, which took place on Tahrir and Al-Khalani squares and at the Al-Jumhuriya and Al-Sinak bridges, which were attended by citizens from both sides of al-Karkh and Al-Rusafa.

Much worse than extra-judiciary murder, because there was never any accusation launched against you — except for lies.

Yes Minister Fan Fiction 17 Yes Minister Fan Fiction 17

I have been rather unwell this last week with atrial fibrillation, and at 5am last Sunday morning had the paramedics out and puzzling over the ECG results. This particularly severe episode was a result of being out in the cold and storm for hours on the AUOB march, and I felt so guilty at being a self-inflicted drain on the NHS that I declined their offer to take me into hospital and decided to recover at home.
I did however get to thinking about whether, had I indeed toddled off on my next great adventure, I would regret holding information which I had not imparted to you. Well, I couldn’t in those circumstances regret not having imparted it as I would be deid, but you know what I mean. As it happened the thing I found I was most worried about not being able to impart was not, at least on its surface, a case of world sweeping importance, but rather of individual injustice. Though the surface often hides a great deal. https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/?fbclid=IwAR2Nw-nq2rOEQ1EULUnoIxFlhnwR8a3zXaTTvR8EhrzyTifueqeJ84FbQmc

USA Vs Iran: Six Decades of American Lies, Deceit and War Crimes By Irwin, Jerome
The war drums of a World War III in 2020 continue to beat louder and louder since President Trump’s illegal assassination of Iran’s General Qasem Soleimani in Tehran. The escalation of each new day’s recklessly-outrageous pronouncements by Trump and his political allies, that speak out for the imminent need to remove the present government in Iran, feels more and more like the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914, while each new increasingly more aggressive threat made against Iran’s current government feels more and more like the threats the Austrian Hungarian government once made against Serbia that finally lite the fatal fuse of another earlier century’s Armageddon. The international conflict that in 1914–18 embroiled most of the world’s nations, and led to unprecedented slaughter, carnage and destruction once again feels as if it could happen only disastrously more so.
But where are the outcries by the world’s leaders for an immediate International Criminal Court war crime investigation of President Trump’s blatant violation of international law committed in the willful murder of the official of another government that the current War Powers Act of the United States authorizes the President to take such war-threatening actions.

The Donald Trump administration is ramping up its information war against Venezuela, Iran, and Syria. And it has enlisted social media platforms as weapons in its assault on these top regime-change targets.

In the first two weeks of January, Twitter suspended dozens of accounts run by real, live people — not bots — in Venezuela, Iran, and Syria. Those erased from the website included heads of state, numerous state institutions, media outlets, and many average people who do not work for their governments.

The supreme leader of Iran, president of Syria, and leader of Venezuela’s National Assembly have all had their Twitter accounts temporarily suspended or restricted in recent days.

After US Killing of Iran’s Soleimani, Narrative Control on Social Media is Getting Worse Twitter has been on a narrative-control rampage, removing or censoring legitimate accounts that are critical of US-led wars, propaganda and lies. Facebook and Instagram have increased their Big Brother policing, too.

Attempts by American-based social media behemoths to silence or censor voices critical of the establishment-approved narrative is nothing new, but this trend seems to have intensified lately.

Just in the past several days, following the criminal US assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, Instagram and Facebook have been removing posts supportive of Soleimani, even profile photos honouring the general, allegedly to comply with US sanctions, a truly absurd explanation for the narrative control.

On January 7, it was reported that Twitter had suspended numerous Venezuelan accounts, including those of the central bank, the Bolivarian National Armed Forces, public media, political leaders, the Finance & Oil ministries. http://ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/featured-articles/2020/january/18/after-us-killing-of-iran-s-soleimani-narrative-control-on-social-media-is-getting-worse/

Ex-US intel officer: Pompeo ‘lying through his teeth’ on Iran
The Trump administration is imposing new sanctions on Iran and defying Iraq’s call for a US troop withdrawal. This comes as the stated rationale for the US assassination of Qasem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis is being undermined by its top officials’ own statements. Scott Ritter, a former Marine Corps intelligence officer, analyzes the increased White House coercion efforts and collapsing intelligence claims.

Excellent! H/T Padraic O’Dwyer “Marandi explained to hosts Brian Becker and John Kiriakou that it’s not only the Iranian government who considers the killing of Soleimani to be an act of war, but Baghdad as well. “The Iraqis consider this to be an act of war because the United States also murdered Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the deputy head of the … Popular Mobilization Forces that spearheaded the fight against [Daesh] in Iraq,” he said, adding that al-Muhandis and Soleimani “were the ones who saved Iraq from [Daesh].” “The United States has been acting with impunity in Iraq from day one of occupation,” Marandi asserted. However, the US’ recent strikes against Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces that resulted in the deaths of at least 25 fighters and injured dozens, were particularly sinister, the academic noted.
He highlighted that not only did the strikes take place on the frontlines of the battle against the Daesh on the Iraqi-Syrian border, but the area targeted was hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest US base in the region. “They did that … to weaken the fight against [Daesh] because the Americans would like to see [Daesh] regain the border between Iraq and Syria, so that Syria would not be able to trade with Iraq,” Marandi argued. “The Americans ignore the sovereignty of Iraq; they ignore [Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi]; they ignore the will of the Iraqi people; they murder the heroes of the war against [Daesh]; and they wonder why they are so widely despised across the region.”
He went on to say that Washington has gotten to a point where they believe their own propaganda and continue to perpetuate the idea that there is nothing but hatred between Iranians and Iraqis. “The Western media does not show the huge crowds in Iraqi cities that are protesting against this US act of aggression,” Marandi said, speaking of the strike which killed Soleimani and al-Muhandis. “The Western media propagates a narrative, then they believe their own narrative, and then they make calculations based on that false narrative,” Marandi noted, saying the US is confronted with repeated setbacks “because their calculations are based on illusions.”
In keeping with this trend of Washington damaging its own goals, “the murder of General Soleimani … served to unite the Iranian population against the United States,” according to Marandi. “And the murder of [Soleimani and al-Muhandis] served to turn the bulk of the Iraqi population against the United States, and it outraged those 400,000 armed forces that led the fight against [Daesh] in Iraq.” US Military ‘Despised Across the Region’ as Iran, Iraq View Strikes as Acts of War https://sputniknews.com/analysis/202001041077937422-us-military-despised-across-the-region-as-iran-iraq-view-strikes-as-acts-of-war-/?fbclid=IwAR1ZbKxGW-Y64JTANJxy9Til-LPjN1CLkdXD8EzzO7IUShu-GIQZGiIndYo

War: Qatar assists Iran in buying 36 fighter jets J-10C from China The government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has concluded plans to use $1.5 of $3 billion allocated to it by Qatar to purchase 36 Chinese Chengdu J-10C fighters as tensions heighten in the Middle East.
The J-10C are said to be cheaper and more promising than the Russian MiG-35 fighters the country was reportedly interested in buying.
“The Emir (head of state) of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani arrived in Iran and met with the country’s president Rouhani in Tehran.
“Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani offered Iran $3 billion in financial assistance on behalf of Qatar for compensating the families of the victims who were killed in Iran. However, according to a report from the Reuters news agency, Iran plans to use $1–1.5 billion as compensation to the victims’ families, and the remaining funds will be used to purchase new weaponry and equipment. https://dailypost.ng/2020/01/16/war-qatar-assists-iran-in-buying-36-fighter-jets-j-10c-from-china/?fbclid=IwAR10NlW5q1EzXYIFIcCWTZbOTf1rKuXPx_WxFQcnPKW_gBLS5-sbzO2b-YI

PHD RESEARCH “Regardless of who is trying to fool whom in the bloody drawn-out saga in Libya, it can be said with confidence that the biggest dupe so far has been Erdogan. He is being lured with eyes wide open into a trap deliberately set by Haftar’s sponsors. The reason for this, in the words of one former aide, is that he only listens to people who tell him what he wants to hear. This is a dangerous flaw, not only for Turkey but the entire region. Erdogan’s big problem is that he has few friends left in the Mediterranean basin, whether on its Arab or European shores. His only allies are the Muslim Brotherhood, Qatar and Sarraj’s government in Libya, which beseeched him for military assistance. The Turkish president faces a sea of enemies, including major global or regional powers, plus mounting Israeli-backed American economic pressure aimed at bringing him to his knees.
So how does Turkey — admittedly a powerful country power in its own right that should not be underestimated — deal with this predicament? One clue was provided by Erdogan’s advisor Yasin Aktay in an article in the pro-AKP newspaper Yani Safak. He called for a rapprochement between Turkey andEgypt, arguing that the two countries have more reason to co-operate than quarrel, and suggesting the current crisis could serve as an opportunity to mend Turkish-Egyptian-Libyan relations. The article, which may have been inspired by Erdogan himself, signals a sharp break with previous thinking. It implies that Turkey realises it is in a fix and needs to undertake a comprehensive policy rethink, in line with the pragmatism Erdogan has demonstrated amply in other comparable cases.
Another sign of new thinking was the first publicly-acknowledged meeting, held in Moscow a few days ago, between the second most powerful men in Turkey and Syria, security chiefs Hakan Fidan and Ali Mamlouk. They were brought together by President Vladimir Putin to discuss Idlib and northern Syria. The reporting of this meeting breaks new ground for both sides, especially in terms of Turkish pride. Ankara used to refuse to admit to holding secret high-level security meetings with Damascus.” http://thealtworld.com/abdel_bari_atwan/turkey-and-the-libyan-trap?fbclid=IwAR14NNN1twfbdsLRczkLq9urGNER2dn9dXTe0hoA08QBs6n8hH5Unxop-CE

Ron Chandler The Sarraj gang of thieves and jihadis is NOT recognised by the Libyan people, in the form of the Great Tribes of Libya for whom General Haftar, whatever his CIA background may be, is fighting. The Libyan National Army is the army of the Libyan people. Sarraj’s murderous scum are NATO-backed adventurers. Why else would ErDog the NWO’s useful idiot, be backing them> This lot have stolen tons of Libya’s gold, right out of the Central Bank in Tripoli. The UN that recognises such swine are puppets of America and of the Mulsim Brotherhood, that Erdogan claims to lead. Hafter would be a fool to agree to the entirely stupid ceasefire, when his loyal troops are within sight of victory.
Who the hell are Altworld, anyway? Why would ErDog’s enemies be luring him into Libya? That could only be the same UN cabal that ran the war on Libya’s people in the first place. They do not want a trap: they just want victory, and peace.

N VIDEO: RUSSIAN REINFORCEMENTS PASS THROUGH U.S. CHECKPOINT IN NORTHEAST SYRIA U.S. and Russian forces made several similar contacts in northeast Syria in the last few months. Despite the lack of sufficient coordination, no accidents have been reported yet.
Earlier this week, a Russian convoy arrived in the city of Qamishli, to the northeast of Tell Tamr. The large convoy transported troops, weapons and equipment, which reinforced a Russian base near the city.
Russian forces were deployed in northeast Syria last October following a Turkish-led attack on U.S.-backed Kurdish forces in the region. These forces, mainly from the Russian Military Police, are now implementing a Russian-Turkish de-escalation agreement.

“We have accurate information that over 25,000 surgical operations have been conducted in the refugee camps of the neighboring countries and in the terrorist-controlled areas in Syria since 2011 to take out the body organs of 15,000 Syrians and sell them in the international black markets,” Dr. Noufel said.
He pointed to the high prices of human body organs in the black markets, and said, “A kidney is sold $10,000 in Turkey while the same kidney is sold for $1,000 in Iraq, but in Lebanon and Syria the price of each kidney is $3,000.”

This is the face of the ISIS sex slave market KHANKE, Iraq — The advertisement on the Telegram app is as chilling as it is incongruous: A girl for sale is “Virgin. Beautiful. 12 years old…. Her price has reached $12,500 and she will be sold soon.”
The posting in Arabic appeared on an encrypted conversation along with ads for kittens, weapons and tactical gear. It was shared with the Associated Press by an activist with the minority Yazidi community, whose women and children are being held as sex slaves by the extremists.
While the Islamic State group is losing territory in its self-styled caliphate, it is tightening its grip on the estimated 3,000 women and girls held as sex slaves. In a fusion of ancient barbaric practices and modern technology, IS sells the women like chattel on smartphone apps and shares databases that contain their photographs and the names of their “owners” to prevent their escape through IS checkpoints. The fighters are assassinating smugglers who rescue the captives, just as funds to buy the women out of slavery are drying up. https://nypost.com/2016/07/05/this-is-the-face-of-the-isis-sex-slave-market/

ADL lies about me so as to shut down discussion of Israel’s role in Soleimani killing The ADL has lumped me and Max Blumenthal and Jeff Morley in with rightwing antisemites because we said that Trump killed Qasem Soleimani out of concern for Israel’s interest. The ADL classifies us as the “anti-Zionist left,” but it associates us with nationalist Jew-hating rhetoric that has undoubtedly made Jews less safe in the United States. And the ADL specifically scores me for speaking of the number of Zionist Jews that Trump has in his administration.
I confess that this kind of attack hurts. I grew up in a very Jewish household that had a lot of respect for the ADL; and I carry a portion of that respect to this day for the ADL’s efforts fighting bigotry. When people hurl the antisemitism charge at me, as they often have, it doesn’t just bounce off lightly. I think of the former friends who have accused me, including my former editor who said I am being “used” by Palestinians against Jews, and of my own family members, one of whom called my work “vile,” while the others ignore it and have never given me an ounce of support. https://mondoweiss.net/2020/01/adl-lies-about-me-so-as-to-shut-down-discussion-of-israels-role-in-soleimani-killing/

“Iran Must Begin Acting Like A Normal Nation,” Says Totally Normal Nation The government which runs a globe-spanning empire led by a reality TV host keeps talking about the lack of normality in the nation of Iran.
“What we want all countries to join in,” said State Department Spokesperson Morgan Ortagus in a recent Fox News interview, “is to help us not only to de-escalate any tensions with Iran, but to help us bring Iran to a place where they are ready to stop their terrorist and malign behavior, and where they are ready to discuss with the United States, with Europe, with everyone, about how they can change their behavior to act like a normal nation.”
“We want Iran to simply behave like a normal nation,” Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a press statement the other day. “We believe that the sanctions we imposed today further that strategic objective.”
These would be the additional sanctions which have been expanded to include virtually the entire Iranian economy, deliberately targeting Iran’s already sanction-starved populace, with the explicit goal of fomenting a civil war in that nation.
Which is of course a perfectly normal thing to do, from a perfectly normal nation. https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2020/01/13/iran-must-begin-acting-like-a-normal-nation-says-totally-normal-nation/

Ozone Layer Recovery Is Being Undermined by Pollution From U.S. Companies

The global response to the “ozone hole,” as it came to be known in the 1970s, has long been held up as a model for environmental problem-solving — and the hope that we might yet be able to fix the climate crisis. After scientists realized that chemicals used for cooling and in aerosol sprays were causing the Earth’s protective ozone layer to thin, threatening to cause vast increases in cancers and other diseases, countries around the world came together to fix it. Even the companies that made and sold the chemical culprits — chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs — participated in the Montreal Protocol, the international treaty that began phasing them out in 1989. Since then, the ozone layer has partially recovered. https://theintercept.com/2020/01/18/ozone-layer-epa-united-states-pollution/

Hundreds of thousands of articles, updates and tweets have been made on this matter, and many have talked about what the reasons behind these protests have been. Many videos show groups so called Iranians tearing down the pictures of Martyr Qassem Soleimani, while others chant “death to the Islamic Republic” and “death to Khamenei”. Thousands of such people have appeared across Iran and many of those Iranians outside of Iran cheer on them while the Empire takes every chance to attack Iran as these protests are used by the Western Media to wage psychological warfare on the Islamic Republic. https://thesaker.is/death-to-the-islamic-republic-they-chant-now-and-they-call-themselves-iranians/

On those too-rare occasions when western media condemns Trump’s war crimes, they insert the rancidly insidious #PeakColonialism.
The legendary Gen. #Soleimani is mourned by every anti-imperialist in the world; hundreds of thousands of Iraqis poured into the streets to attend his funeral procession.
*Millions* of Iranians were in the streets of Tehran, to honor this courageous martyr. Arriving nearly one half hour late, and presenting precariously dyspneic, US President Donald J. Trump addressed the world on Iran’s retaliation for Trump’s vile assassinations of IRCG Quds Commander Qassem Soleimani and PMU Deputy Commander Abu Mahdi al Muhandis. Though necessarily short due to his worrisome breathing difficulties, Trump’s statement was overflowing with lies, of the war propaganda variety.
Trump claimed zero casualties from Iran’s retaliatory bombing of two US military bases in Iraq, the first time any country engaged in such retaliation, openly. He claimed negligible damage to infrastructure. https://www.syrianews.cc/trump-delivers-a-war-declaration-claims-peace-seeker-status/?fbclid=IwAR3PitWTGT9nJlvw9YTd0ttr2H2Xgyqn1a6YNchX8ncv3Ct73HnvYUWzuq8

Iran’s Minister of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Mohammad Javad Azari Jahromi says two Zafar (Victory) satellites have successfully passed tests and will soon be launched into space.
In a post on his Twitter account on Sunday, Azari Jahromi said the Zafar 1 and 2 satellites were being carried later in the day to the space center in central Iran for launch.
“Following attempts by young Iranian scientists, the Zafar 1 and 2 satellites, which have successfully passed their tests, will be deployed to the space center today so that the process for putting them in orbit can commence soon,” he said. “The satellite and the satellite carrier are both an important research step.”

Please do read this very important and comprehensive note by Kiaayo Naatoyitapiiksi before moving on to Global Research article:
The evidence does not matter to propagandists and, despite the public appearance that the U.S. President is battling the Deep State apparatus, it seems now that the Deep State and the head of the country are now finally reading from the same page.
The roots of a Washington push for a new war on Iran can be found in the 1992 Defense Planning Guidance, the 1996 paper called A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm, the 2000 Rebuilding America’s Defenses, and in a 2001 Pentagon memo described by Wesley Clark as listing these nations for attack: Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Lebanon, Syria, and Iran.
Wolfowitz Doctrine
Paul Wolfowitz, a leading neoconservative, penned the Wolfowitz Doctrine shortly after the Soviet collapse. This doctrine is the basis of US foreign and military policy.
The doctrine states:
“Our first objective is to prevent the re-emergence of a new rival, either on the territory of the former Soviet Union or elsewhere, that poses a threat on the order of that posed formerly by the Soviet Union. This is a dominant consideration underlying the new regional defense strategy and requires that we endeavor to prevent any hostile power from dominating a region whose resources would, under consolidated control, be sufficient to generate global power.”
Notice that Washington’s “first objective” is not peace, not prosperity, not human rights, not democracy, not justice. Washington’s “first objective” is world hegemony. Only the very confident so blatantly reveal their agenda.
The Wolfowitz doctrine requires Washington to dispense with or overthrow governments that do not acquiesce to Washington’s will. It is the “first objective.”
Remember the Kellogg–Briand Pact (or Pact of Paris, officially General Treaty for Renunciation of War as an Instrument of National Policy) in which signatory states promised not to use war to resolve “disputes or conflicts of whatever nature or of whatever origin they may be, which may arise among them.” Parties failing to abide by this promise “should be denied of the benefits furnished by this treaty.” It was signed by Germany, France and the United States on August 27, 1928, and by most other nations soon after. Sponsored by France and the U.S., the Pact renounced the use of war and called for the peaceful settlement of disputes.

The Yinon Plan of 1982, drafted when hard-right politician Menachim Begin was prime minister, was outlined in a paper entitled “A Strategy for Israel in the 1980s.” It maintained that Israel’s security would be guaranteed only if its neighbors were to be somehow forced or otherwise induced to come apart and return to their tribal, ethnic, and religious constituencies, which had been arbitrarily combined into individual nation-states by the imperial powers after World War I. The Yinon Plan included recommendations for military action to accomplish what might not be done more clandestinely, including an Israeli invasion of Syria to break the country down into Alawite, Druze, Sunni, and Christian communities. A fragmented Arab world creating a “Balkanized” weak-state system for the region, combined with relocation of the Palestinians to Jordan, would remove all the threats to Israel’s survival.

Study Traces Evolution of Acoustic Communication Back to 350 Million Years Ago A study tracing acoustic communication across the tree of life of land-living vertebrates reveals that the ability to vocalize goes back hundreds of millions of years, is associated with a nocturnal lifestyle and has remained stable.
Imagine taking a hike through a forest or a stroll through a zoo and not a sound fills the air, other than the occasional chirp from a cricket. No birds singing, no tigers roaring, no monkeys chattering, and no human voices, either. Acoustic communication among vertebrate animals is such a familiar experience that it seems impossible to imagine a world shrouded in silence.
But why did the ability to shout, bark, bellow or moo evolve in the first place? In what is likely the first study to trace the evolution of acoustic communication across terrestrial vertebrates, John J. Wiens of the University of Arizona and Zhuo Chen, a visiting scientist from Henan Normal University in Xinxiang, China, traced the evolution of acoustic communication in terrestrial vertebrates back to 350 million years ago. https://scitechdaily.com/study-traces-evolution-of-acoustic-communication-back-to-350-million-years-ago/

Possible On/Off Switch for Plant Growth Identified Protein could be key to saving crops endangered by extreme weather or climate change.

New research from UC Riverside identifies a protein that controls plant growth — good news for an era in which crops can get crushed by climate change.
Researchers found the protein, IRK, while looking for clues to the ways plant cells divide or expand. They discovered IRK in the root cells of a plant related to mustard. https://scitechdaily.com/possible-on-off-switch-for-plant-growth-identified/

Scientists Explore Hazards of Pushing Lithium-Ion Cells Too Far [Video] Rice engineers find overabundance of intentional defects can cause battery cathodes to fail.

Intentional defects in batteries have given Rice University scientists a window into the hazards of pushing lithium-ion cells too far.
New simulations by Rice materials scientist Ming Tang and graduate student Kaiqi Yang, detailed in the Journal of Materials Chemistry A, shows too much stress in widely used lithium iron phosphate cathodes can open cracks and quickly degrade batteries. https://scitechdaily.com/scientists-explore-hazards-of-pushing-lithium-ion-cells-too-far-video/

Unraveling the Mysteries of Dark Matter by Taking Its Temperature Warm, cold, just right? Physicists at the University of California, Davis, are taking the temperature of dark matter, the mysterious substance that makes up about a quarter of our universe.
We have very little idea of what dark matter is, and physicists have yet to detect a dark matter particle. But we do know that the gravity of clumps of dark matter can distort light from distant objects. Chris Fassnacht, a physics professor at UC Davis, and colleagues are using this distortion, called gravitational lensing, to learn more about the properties of dark matter.
The standard model for dark matter is that it is ”cold,” meaning that the particles move slowly compared to the speed of light, Fassnacht said. This is also tied to the mass of dark matter particles. The lower the mass of the particle, the “warmer” it is and the faster it will move. https://scitechdaily.com/unraveling-the-mysteries-of-dark-matter-by-taking-its-temperature/
Massive Black Hole Collisions Illuminated by X-Rays and Gravitational Waves
By University of Birmingham The European Space Agency (ESA) has recently announced that its two major space observatories of the 2030s will have their launches timed for simultaneous use. These missions, Athena, the next generation X-ray space telescope and LISA, the first space-based gravitational wave observatory, will be coordinated to begin observing within a year of each other and are likely to have at least four years of overlapping science operations.
According to the new study, published this week in Nature Astronomy, ESA’s decision will give astronomers an unprecedented opportunity to produce multi-messenger maps of some of the most violent cosmic events in the Universe, which have not been observed so far and which lie at the heart of long-standing mysteries surrounding the evolution of the Universe. https://scitechdaily.com/massive-black-hole-collisions-illuminated-by-x-rays-and-gravitational-waves/
Strong Emission Lines Seen in Galaxy 135 Million Light-Years Away
For this Picture of the Week, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope turned its powerful eye towards an emission line galaxy called NGC 3749.
When astronomers explore the contents and constituent parts of a galaxy somewhere in the Universe, they use various techniques and tools. One of these is to spread out the incoming light from that galaxy into a spectrum and explore its properties. This is done in much the same way as a glass prism spreads white light into its constituent wavelengths to create a rainbow. By hunting for specific signs of emission from various elements within a galaxy’s spectrum of light — so-called emission lines — or, conversely, the signs of absorption from other elements — so-called absorption lines — astronomers can start to deduce what might be happening within. https://scitechdaily.com/strong-emission-lines-seen-in-galaxy-135-million-light-years-away/

Aspects of High Efficiency Perovskite Solar Cells Uncovered With Light 10 Billion Times Brighter Than the Sun
By Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie November 14, 2019 Using crystallographic analyses at the Diamond Light Source (DLS) synchrotron in the United Kingdom, an HZB team has demonstrated that hybrid halide perovskites crystallize without inversion center. Interactions between the organic molecules and adjacent iodine atoms can lead to the formation of ferroelectric domains, which, indirectly, can result in higher solar-cell efficiencies. The formation of these ferroelectric domains cannot occur in purely inorganic perovskites. https://scitechdaily.com/aspects-of-high-efficiency-perovskite-solar-cells-uncovered-with-light-10-billion-times-brighter-than-the-sun/

Mysteries of Dark Matter and Antimatter May Be Linked
Could the profound mysteries of antimatter and dark matter be linked? Thinking that they might be, scientists from the international BASE collaboration, led by Stefan Ulmer of the RIKEN Cluster for Pioneering Research, and collaborators have performed the first laboratory experiments to determine whether a slightly different way in which matter and antimatter interact with dark matter might be a key to solving both mysteries.Dark matter and antimatter are both vexing problems for physicists trying to understand how our world works at a fundamental level. https://scitechdaily.com/mysteries-of-dark-matter-and-antimatter-may-be-linked/

Hypervelocity star booted out of our galaxy by supermassive black hole The star is traveling fast enough that it will leave the Milky Way and shoot off into the massive space between galaxies. “S5-HVS1’s velocity is so high that it will inevitably leave the galaxy and never return,” Dr. Douglas Boubert, an astronomer at the University of Oxford, explained in a statement. https://www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/hypervelocity-star-hills-mechanism/
