The blacklist of a panicked, falling empire

The desperate flailing of a mainstream-media struggling through the five stages of grief continues as no lesser unbiased foundation of the fourth estate than The Washington Post pushes ahead with its “fake news, blame the Russians” narrative for why their candidate failed so miserably. Citing “two teams of independent researchers” (who surely have a substantial libel litigation provision) who found “Russia’s increasingly sophisticated propaganda machinery… echoed and amplified right-wing sites across the Internet as they portrayed Clinton as a criminal,” the Jeff Bezos-owned website names The Anti-Media, Drudge, Zero Hedge, and The Ron Paul Institute and countless other outlets among the “useful idiots” that true American patriots should be wary of. [...] The report from PropOrNot, provided to the Post, identifies more than 200 websites that routinely pushed Russian propaganda to at least 15 million Americans, and found that false stories pushed on Faceb

Bureau of Prisons visit to CIA torture site in Afghanistan confirmed

One of the many alarming facts that came to light with the release of the executive summary of the Senate Torture Report in 2014 was that the Justice Department’s Bureau of Prisons had sent a “delegation of several officers” to Afghanistan to conduct an assessment an infamous CIA detention site and concluded the CIA “did not mistreat the detainees.” Senate investigators found that the Bureau officers visited a detention site codenamed Cobalt north of Kabul in November 2002. That site — also known as the Salt Pit — has become infamous for the brutal torture inflicted on detainees there, including rectal exams conducted with “excessive force.” According to Senate investigators, the CIA’s own employees described the facility as “a dungeon,” where detainees “cowered” as interrogators opened the door and “looked like a dog that had been kenneled.” In April, the ACLU filed suit to obtain documents related to the visit, which the Bureau of Prisons initially claimed d

John Major speaks about the 'tyranny of the majority'!

A pure sample of neoliberal fascist elitism Former British prime minister John Major has expressed the likelihood of a second referendum on Brexit, saying that those who voted to remain in the European Union (EU) should not suffer the “tyranny of the majority”. Major made the remarks on Friday, saying there is a “perfectly credible” case for a second referendum on leaving the 28-member bloc and that those who cast a Remain vote in the June referendum should have their say in debates over the terms of departing from the EU. " I hear the argument that the 48 percent of people who voted to stay should have no say in what happens, I find that very difficult to accept, ” the former British premier said. “ The tyranny of the majority has never applied in a democracy and it should not apply in this particular democracy, " he noted.

Every day is black in USA

While in USA people are preparing for “Black Friday”, hundreds of impoverished people queue overnight for free medical care. In the United States there is very little government provision of dental or vision care and limited healthcare, unless you can afford to pay for it. As a result, people are forced to turn to a charity for help. In this ITV’s video hundred of people are queuing in Virginia for free medical, dental or eye-care, thanks to Remote Area Medical: https://www.facebook.com/itvnews/videos/10154273934137672/ http://info-war.gr/en/every-day-is-black-in-usa/

Κάθε μέρα είναι «μαύρη» στις ΗΠΑ

Καθώς στις ΗΠΑ ετοιμάζονται για τη Μαύρη Παρασκευή, εκατοντάδες άποροι κάνουν ουρές από το βράδυ για δωρεάν ιατρικές εξετάσεις. Οι άνθρωποι αυτοί έχουν ελάχιστη ή καθόλου πρόσβαση σε στοιχειώδη ιατροφαρμακευτική περίθαλψη, αφού στις ΗΠΑ απαιτούνται αστρονομικά ποσά για την ιατρική ασφάλιση. Έτσι, οι φτωχότεροι αναγκάζονται να στραφούν σε δράσεις μη κερδοσκοπικών οργανώσεων, για να καλύψουν τις βασικότερες ανάγκες τους. Είναι «ανέγγιχτοι» των ΗΠΑ. Το video του ITV παρουσιάζει την ολονύκτια αναμονή των ανθρώπων αυτών για οδοντιατρικές ή οφθαλμολογικές εξετάσεις, σε μία δράση της Μ.Κ.Ο.
