The Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity : Whose Bright Idea Was RussiaGate?
Though the dead-enders still refuse to admit it, "Russiagate" is a
farce. Who was behind such a cockamamie scheme and why? It was cooked up
in the feverish mind of then-CIA
director John Brennan as a way to prop up US war footing, and then
embraced by the neocons and Hillaryites who love war spending and wanted
to impeach Trump. So writes Paul Craig Roberts at the link...

Is
it really possible that the US government can kill millions of people
overseas without it having and adverse effect on the mental stability of
the American people? Is it really
possible for Americans to continue living normal lives, mentally
speaking, while their government is out killing millions of people on a
regular basis? The US government’s mass violence abroad is the root
cause of the horrible irrational violence that afflicts American
society.

As it always is whenever the US is implicated in a regime change plot,
the matter isn’t as black and white as Washington and its partners are
trying to portray it as. All domestic
political factors aside, Cambodia is very strategically important
nowadays because of its geographic location and relationship with China.

About three-quarters of the world’s dictatorships currently

dictatorships.”

Comment by UN Human Rights Chief #Zeid on the situation in Catalonia, Spain.
I am very disturbed by the violence in Catalonia on Sunday. With
hundreds of people reported injured, I urge the Spanish authorities to
ensure thorough, independent and impartial investigations into all acts
of violence. Police responses must at all times be proportionate and
necessary.
I firmly believe that the current situation should be
resolved through political dialogue, with full respect for democratic
freedoms.

A brief and very effective post from former British ambassador Craig
Murray on the deliberate misuse of language by the corporate media when
covering the attacks by Spanish police on Catalans trying to reach

George Monbiot: How we get out of the wreckage caused by neoliberalism | The Independent
George Monbiot: How we get out of the wreckage caused by neoliberalism | The Independent
Well
worth watching this video of George Monbiot talking at the World
Transformed, or read the accompanying article, which address the very
biggest question we face: how do we
bring about real political change that reorganises our societies and
saves our environment? He offers some useful ideas about we might get
there, and, more hopefully, how close we already are to achieving real
change.
He also highlights a
key point about human nature that has been intentionally obscured by
those in power precisely because it helps keep them in power.
Monbiot:
This story is inspired by the remarkable new findings in neuroscience,
anthropology, evolutionary biology – by comparison to other species of
animals, humans are bizarrely altruistic.
We are constantly told
that we are this selfish grasping species, and that everyone wants to
grab as much wealth as they can and get everyone else out of the way –
and yes, that is how our leaders behave, and Trump is an example of
that, and the news is dominated by people doing stuff like that. But
what we don’t realise is that these people are highly atypical.
About 1 per cent of the population are psychopaths, who don’t have those
capabilities for altruism or empathy: sadly, a lot of them end up in
charge. Studies show a massive preponderance of psychopaths in power.
And we allow ourselves to be dominated by that politically and
socially, and we begin to reproduce that, but in doing so we ignore all
the mundane daily acts of altruism, which if we saw in another species
we would be astounded – helping people who are not related to us, or
giving money to charity. ...
That capacity has been thwarted ...
by the neoliberal ideology that’s says you are selfish, you are out for
your own and that is a good thing. Greed is good. Extreme competition is
good. Extreme individualism is good. We absorb that, believe it and
accept it, but that is not who we are. And our task is not to change
human nature, but to reveal human nature for what it really is.
We do this by rebuilding community, and rebuilding political life, and
you have to do that from the top as well as from the bottom. There is so
much you can do at the community level, creating this participatory
culture, by creating thick networks of community projects – like
bringing in the commons which make sense of community. A community has
an economic presence: an economic reason to sustain itself, and a way of
sustaining its own members.

RIMA NAJJAR: The benign-sounding term “settler” or “settlement” is used
so often in the news without reference to Jewish colonization of
Palestine that the world often loses
sight of the immoral nature of the Zionist project in Palestine. The
term is used to describe Jews moving illegally to the West Bank, and
commandeering land that belongs to Palestinians. Waves of Jews moving to
Israel are no longer called colonists or even settlers in the news
media, but rather immigrants.

The state-corporate media must be in trouble if a BBC veteran like Nick Robinson

media critics – from the right and the left – are taking to social
media in an organised campaign to discredit what Robinson calls the
“mainstream media”. Predictably, his article strikes the self-satisfied
tone of those who claim to be right because they have come under attack
