Would you be willing to provide your input on the national theatre of presidential candidates? Are any honest? How would you vet them?

Interesting news in the US tonight along the lines you are talking about. Clinton the neo-con golden girl is in a dead-heat finish with her democratic socialist challenger for the Democractic Party nomination. After all the help from the elite machine she has had for a year to rig the vote they ended (according to RT ) at 49.8% for Clinton.And 49.6 for Sanders. While among Republicans the front runner Trump lost to the rabid neo-con Russophobe Cruz 27% to 24%.
The Democrat and Republican gangs are twin, bought (mostly by Zionist oligarchs), political Mafias. Their job is to pretend democracy, while following the program set by the Wealthy power elite (dominated by the Zionists).
All the candidates are bought Agents for the Imperialist Oligarchs. Of all the presidential candidates, only Rand Paul is caught up in the maelstrom of the supreme power of the imperialist Oligarchs, and although attempting to follow in his father’s (the distinguished Congressman Ron Paul’s), footsteps, he has made too many opportunist compromises, and, in doing so, has faded into the background, earning only 3% of the delegate vote in Iowa.
Imperialist socialist Sanders voted for all the funds (many $Billions) for his masters, the Zionist Land Thieves, and for all America’s imperialist wars, from Iraq 1 & 2, to Afghanistan, to Libya, to Syria, and all the others. He supports all the Police State agencies, as well. Oligarch Trump is corrupt, and having little political base, is as pathetic as the others.
H Clinton & the other candidates are all from Mordor, and I will not mention their names here – again.
Try to Recall:
In America, our Republic has been Overthrown in a CIA-MOSSAD coup d’etat in Dallas. This terrorist military pattern inaugurated the First of the Modern Operational overthrows of governments by the post-WW II alliance of Zionist American Oligarchs. It happened on November 22, 1963. These styles of government overthrows are currently better known as ‘Arab Springs’. It all began in Dallas, where the Caesarites crossed the Rubicon and assassinated the Republic.
America was imperialist before, but after 1963, nothing has been the same, as our last Constitutional President, John Kennedy, was overthrown, and his brother, Robert Kennedy was assassinated by the same forces – to prevent him from becoming President, and possibly, restoring the Constitutional Government. Nothing was the same. The Government and its candidates are all frauds.
Kennedy was the last President to conduct reasonable political relations with Russia (the USSR), and come to reasonable, and tenable, compromises. During the Bay of Pigs, (the CIA attempt to overthrow the Cuban Revolutionary Government), JF Kennedy refused to use American Air power to help the CIA (he explained that to do so without a Declaration of War – by Congress, was Unconstitutional). Later Kennedy worked a deal with Khrushchev, where Russia removed missiles from Cuba, and the US removed theirs from Italy and Turkey. The compromise prevented World War III.
After Kennedy’s Presidency, each president has been unconstitutional (illegitimate). Congress has decayed at the same rate. Each phony President has been worse, and more craven than the last. The next will be more criminal and subservient than the previous. Write in your favorite here……………………
President Nixon was in Dallas the day Kennedy was shot.
VP LB Johnson, had been a corrupt Texas Congressman who (it was rumored), had business associates murdered. He was also in Dallas on that day. President Ford was never elected. He was appointed twice, once as Vice President; later, he replaced Nixon as President, after Nixon was ousted by the same oligarchs he had conspired with in Dallas. Ford had been the Director of the CIA, and was a member of the Warren Commission, which decided on which Fairy Tale to regale the American rubes with – following Kennedy’s assassination.
See any links here? See any Constitutional Legitimacy in the American Government?
One of the most powerful oligarchs, Nelson Rockefeller, was not elected, but appointed Vice President – by Ford.. Reagan, as with Obomber, came from Hollywood. Bill Clinton was – the frontman for the destruction of Yugoslavia and the bombing of Belgrade.
America is not an Independent nation. Last year the American Congress welcomed its Actual Presiding President, Netenyahoo, sublimely received his orders, and gave him standing ovation after ovation.
Since WW II the Zionist Americans have murdered more than 4 million humans, and overthrown dozens of governments..
Now for the Bad News:
America has No Political Opposition – Whatever! There was more opposition to Hitler’s Nazi dictatorship in Germany, many times more, than there is in the ‘so-called ‘democratic’ US of A.
Don’t misunderstand me. I love my country – its people. We have had our moments. The remnants of the ever weak American political opposition have been physically liquidated, (J. Kennedy, R Kennedy, ML King, Malcolm X, Fred Hampton, John Lennon, and hundreds of less known. Our best known Freedom Fighter -breathes, thanks to Vladimir Putin giving him sanctuary. Another is imprisoned in the Ecuadoran Embassy, the other, a soldier, is serving a life sentence in a Real American Military prison. The fortunate McKinney, Ron Paul, Jesse Ventura, Dennis Kucinich, ane a few others are politically marginalized, isolated in the great emptiness.
Thousands more are dispersed, intimidated, and aging.
I write this as the Police are knocking at my door!!!
For the Democratic Republics, the ones we defend, and the ones we need to restore!
*This has been a hurried missive. If the Saker should wish a more polished effort, he will have to ask.
“Sanders voted against the Iraq war,not for it. He’s talked for years about helping lead what little opposition there was in Congress against that war.”
A quote from the Zionist imperialist candidate, himself, is not proof; your provided link is only to his election propaganda for the Rubes.
“Looking back, I think the war was a mistake.” from Sanders, utterly exposes and condemns him.
The War/s against Iraq, were not a ‘mistake,’ they were a major imperialist Crime Against Humanity, which destroyed an estiimated 1 million of its citizens, and dispersed millions more, and flattened its cities, and destroyed its independence. And, And, And, that double dealing misleading Bastard voted for all the $funds to prosecute that war, and all Zionist America’ subsequent imperialist wars.
In his campaign, Sanders does not broach (discuss America’s foreign policy). He is programmed not to do so by his masters. He promises Butter with the Guns (although he is willing to disarm the American people, (control their guns), but not the weapons of the American Military, or their $financial complex, of of the 16 Police State agencies (who consume $Billions of the Government’s budget). Guns with Butter, Gins with Butter, Zionist Americans can repress the planet, and eat well – too (at least butter their bread as they help slaughter the Palestinians, other Arabs, Vietnamese, and Russians).
“Do not look for help there!” – or something like that, from – Tolkien
Some who hope for Sanders to be a good person, and who vote for him, may be well intentioned, but most are Rubes and Sheeple (the Sheeple know better but have not the heart to see the true situation On The Ground, (to use a military phrase). They cannot face the cold hard truth, pick themselves up, wipe off the dust, clench their teeth, and continue from there.
Trump may be the least evil of the bunch, and that is not saying, or implying much. Some of my Good Old Boys on the Peninsula like him (a little). He has expressed a bit of will to -wheel and deal- with the Russian leaders. The “front runner Trump” emerged in a dead heat, with the other Republicans, as the 4 percentage points between 1st and 2nd place is not considered much of a difference. Trump cannot be relied upon for any consistent Constitutional leadership, and he is a decades long friend of the Clintons.
Hang in there. It is not over till the fat Lady sings. And Hilary Clinton cannot sing – a note.
Peter,I shouldn’t have to prove “plain truths” to you. You can look them up yourself. Its not a “state secret” on how a Senator votes in Congress. Sanders said he voted against the war,simply because he did.But still here you are again,”Sanders voted against the resolutions authorizing the use of force against Iraq in 1991 and 2002, and opposed the 2003 invasion of Iraq”.He also said just a couple of weeks ago that the US shouldn’t get involved in military actions in the Middle East (especially Syria). I heard it during one of the debates. I’m not defending him as a “paragon of virtue” are anything like that. None of the US Presidential candidates are worthy to hold that office in my opinion. But still,I have a problem with the truth. I like to see it stated at all times.If you don’t like him,or any of them for that matter. That’s fine,its your choice. But what is not your choice is to state incorrect statements as true,and to expect them to just be accepted without pointing that out to you.
Sanders voted for the funds for ALLLLL the imperialist Wars. The $$$money is what counts. His Hot Air about opposing these wars was just that.
He also votes for Alll the $Billions to balance the Land Thieves’ government budget. He votes for the $$funds for the Land Thieve’s settlements in Palestine.
Warning! Sanders is a Judas Goat! He resembles imperialist socialist Hollande, but without the girlish charm. Sanders & Hollande serve the same Masters.
You say, ” I’m not defending him as a “paragon of virtue” are anything like that.” But you are defending him as something better than a complicit War Criminal, Land Thief, and MOSSAD mis-direction agent.
The government of the US of A is a puppet Zionist imperialist establishment, conducting a Circus election, a Circus pretense at being a Constitutional Republic, and displaying a Seriously Competent ability to Pied Piper the American Sheeple, and the World’s humans to continual decay (if they are lucky), and, possibly, utter destruction.
Do you see the serious difficulties the Russian and other world Leaders operate under? They have to deal with this horror, this monster. And they have absolutely no hope of rescue from the American Citizenry.
Fidel Castro said in an interview in “Penthouse Magazine-1978,” that there would never be a Revolution in the United States. Thirty Eight years later, I still hope he was wrong. Understand, that the Leaders of other Nations believe the situation for humanity is all but hopeless. What they correctly understand, is the Gravity of the world political cesspool (great difficulty and danger) represented by the Zionist American imperialists. And that danger is magnified by the great weakness of internal opposition in these regimes.
Within the imperialist nations, only France has anything resembling a significantly large, substantially correct, and reasonably courageous political opposition.
I cannot candy coat this for you. If Sanders was any good, he would not be a Senator, he would be a poor man – given to leafleting, and arguing with you.
We need to restore the Republic, while there is still time! It is The Only Road.
“You say, ” I’m not defending him as a “paragon of virtue” are anything like that.” But you are defending him as something better than a complicit War Criminal, Land Thief, and MOSSAD mis-direction agent.”
I think I’m made my position clear on many occasions. But let me “refresh” it for you. I don’t think anything other than an American Spring will bring the change needed. But without either a vast military defeat or a massive economic collapse (or both) will that come to pass. Though I’d like to see something positive come about without that. I strongly doubt it will.
“The government of the US of A is a puppet Zionist imperialist establishment, conducting a Circus election, a Circus pretense at being a Constitutional Republic, and displaying a Seriously Competent ability to Pied Piper the American Sheeple, and the World’s humans to continual decay (if they are lucky), and, possibly, utter destruction.”
Yes,I agree. But that is the “system” the capitalists have made. And that we,and all the peoples in the West (and much of the World). Have stood around and let them structure the World like that. Since we “refuse” to do anything to change it as yet. We must, to get anything done, work for any improvement we can get within it. That “may” or “may not” be possible. But to do otherwise, leaves us with zero ability to see “any and all” change in our lifetime. I’m not willing to see no improvement “at all” during what’s left of my life,if I can help it. If you are willing to,that’s your choice.
“Do you see the serious difficulties the Russian and other world Leaders operate under? They have to deal with this horror, this monster. And they have absolutely no hope of rescue from the American Citizenry.”
Of course I do. But its also a system that they helped establish as well. And certainly I don’t see from them the needed effort to fully change it. When (if) I ever do see that needed effort,I’ll applaud them.
“Fidel Castro said in an interview in “Penthouse Magazine-1978,” that there would never be a Revolution in the United States. Thirty Eight years later, I still hope he was wrong. Understand, that the Leaders of other Nations believe the situation for humanity is all but hopeless. What they correctly understand, is the Gravity of the world political cesspool (great difficulty and danger) represented by the Zionist American imperialists. And that danger is magnified by the great weakness of internal opposition in these regimes.”
Of course I remember. I was a “Fidelista” long before it was “cool”. And I have to agree with him (unless/until the points I talked of above come about). As for the “leaders” of other nations. Except for a handful of them (I could probably count them on one hand) that resist the US. All the rest are more than willing to throw their citizens under the bus to serve the empire.
“Within the imperialist nations, only France has anything resembling a significantly large, substantially correct, and reasonably courageous political opposition.”
You give far more credit than is due to the French opposition. Other than talk,I see zero change they have brought about in France.And the latest election shows that the system there is rigged so tightly that becoming the largest “vote getting” party “still” didn’t get them even one important election win. The “magic” of the Second Round destroyed that (as it was made to do).
“I cannot candy coat this for you. If Sanders was any good, he would not be a Senator, he would be a poor man – given to leafleting, and arguing with you.”
In which case he wouldn’t be running in the election (and winning a lot of voters). He’d be like some other people (you and me) posting on blogs only. Even though in my head I know (as I stated above) what is needed to bring on an “American Spring”. In my heart,I foolishly hope (OK I’m human,what can I say) that there are other ways to avoid that. And anything that might bring on some change is worth trying. We are witnessing (no matter what you say) the most serious “challenge” to the total elite control the US has seen in my lifetime. Both Trump and Sanders from opposite ends of the “accepted” political spectrum are upending the system. And the system is trying as much as they can, to prevent that. Will “either” of them succeed,I don’t know (though I doubt it). But regardless,their very attempts are denting it. And so that in itself is better than doing “nothing”.
On another related note. I don’t understand your fanatical loyalty to the memory of Jack Kennedy. I liked him (as much as I could any US politician in my life),but he wasn’t a paragon of virtue either. I remember his career well. He was a great speaker,able to move people with his words. But the results are something else.He was responsible (a lot of that was his brother’s doing.Another one you seem to idolize) for the attempts to kill Castro. And was more than willing to back the “Playa Giron”, if and “when” it succeeded. He was afraid of World reaction if it was “blatant” backing (i.e. actual military support). But,while the plan first came from Eisenhower’s regime. He “tweaked” it and ran with it. He also expanded the Vietnam intervention. And worked hand and glove with the plot to murder Diem. It was only when he realized the generals and CIA were lying to him with all those operations. That they misrepresented the chances of success in Cuba and Vietnam that he called a halt to his support. He did help solve the so-called “Cuban Missile Crisis”. But it was a crisis that he brought about to begin with. It was the “Playa Giron” that made the Cubans want the missiles for defense. And the Soviets agreed. Hoping to counter the advantage the US had with missiles close to their borders. The almost destruction of the World in a nuclear holocaust woke Kennedy up. And he began trying to tamp down the Cold War. To make a deal with Cuba and the Soviets. As well as find a way to exit from Vietnam. And then he was killed. Was it because of those reasons,maybe? We can’t be sure right now. But the likelihood is great on that. He was one of the “better” US Presidents certainly. But that is relative,when considering the US political culture. My “liking” for him boils down for the “possibility” of a World at peace he seemed to want. And much less about him personally.Though I have great sympathy over his murder. I also remember that his actions as President caused the deaths of thousands of people in the World.

A reasonable assessment. I agree substantially.
You write the phrase, “My “liking” for him,,,” I also liked him, although, in those times, I liked Joan Baez more, (demonstrated with her -& a hundred thousand others- in Washington DC). Was 3 feet from her & her guitar. But I digress.
You conclude: “. I also remember that his actions as President caused the deaths of thousands of people in the World.”
Not sure if his actions caused any deaths – at all. I believe, “he began trying to tamp down the Cold War.” And by attempting that… he signed his own Death Warrant. JFK, and 2 of his 3 brothers gave their lives for their country & for world peace. Additionally, JFK attempted to end American and European colonialism. And, JFK would not have permitted the Zionist Land Thieves to continue their depredations against the Palestinians. He blocked them, then. He also controlled the FBI & CIA, is was proper in a Constitutional Republic (& not the other way around as it is – today). He replaced CIA head, Allen Dulles.
I could continue. He accomplished much in 1000 days. The contrast between our last Constitutional President, and the subsequent Zionist puppets and complicit imperialist butchers, is that of Day versus Night. *And that is the point*.
It appears we are not far apart. I enjoy this wonderful Forum of – The Saker.
I am for Jill Stein.
She points out the weaknesses of Bernie Sanders’s position whereby if he cannot get the nomination he will bow to Clinton and support.
In other words, Stein points out the problems of Sanders’s commitment to the Dem Party and the need for a viable separate party:
> http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article43832.htm.
If Sanders get the nomination I guess I will vote for him, although I think voters must pin him down on his cabinet appointments. (And who will be his VP?) To avoid the Obama complex of getting the same cabal in the cabinet that was a horror show in the previous admiisitration. As many have said already. as soon as Obama appointedLarry Summers his economic adviser or whatever it was, just weeks after the election, I knew the fix was in. Bummer.
If the Dem candidate is Hillary, I will be voting for Jill Stein.
Katherine
The only right thing for you to do in any of the scenarios you describe Katherine, is that you abstain from voting. Do not give validity to a hopelessly corrupt political system. Else, the “winner” will joyfully laugh into your face, while you are still realising you have been duped. Jill Stein, Jack Rothschild … no difference, they are only part of a cruel mirage in your gentle eyes. Our friend Peter Antonsen above is absolutely correct here, kindly give a good thought to what he said.
Although he too, perhaps (if I correctly understand his exclamation), might benefit from a short history lesson (say, from Zinn’s People’s History of the United States): “The Republic” of the XVIII century was not at all as is nowadays wholesale advertised to the young sheeple in the American middle schools by the Establishment. Its very founders were as corrupt and ill intentioned as their present day U.S. progeny – while feathering their future ruling nest. In place of pining for the fictitious “good old bygone times”, it behoves one to check some unadulterated facts.
@”Else, the “winner” will joyfully laugh into your face, while you are still realising you have been duped. Jill Stein, Jack Rothschild … ”
what brings you to couple Stein with Jack Rothschild? Not that I know who the latter is, but are you tossing all pepole with Jewish last names into one bucket?
I very much doubt that you know anything about Dr. Jill Stein. How about listening to what she actually has to say? Very intelligent. And, she has been in in politics for a good long time.
You may decide to abstain (are you an American citizen? I doubt it). But your “sage” advice is silly. Apparently you think withholding one’s vote will help bring down the system. That has not worked so far. Every year fewer and fewer pepole vote, and the system gets more and more corrupt and doesn’t seem to be disappearing. Your logic???
IMO it is a better use on one’s vote to cast it for a person and party one actually approves of. That is not “throwing away one’s vote” or “helpoing support the system.”
I also find it a bit questionalbe for someone who I presume is not a US citizen to give silly directives to Americans on how to vote.
So, your superior style comments (“your gentle eyes”) are easily dismissed.
Katherine
Dear Katherine, I am deeply sorry if you misunderstood what I said. I merely wanted to prevent that you feel stupid after realising you were duped by voting for that Stein woman, or whatever. However, you are obviously quite lucky that you can not possibly feel so. Every dark cloud has a silver lining!
It seems most of the wolves in sheeps’ clothing have their appropriate political ‘foil’: perhaps Jill stein for the democrats and rand Paul for the republicans.
I think they serve to attract those who know better about the state of the empire. But they will never be allowed to actually set policy or win.
@”t seems most of the wolves in sheeps’ clothing have their appropriate political ‘foil’: perhaps Jill stein for the democrats and rand Paul for the republicans. ”
Not sure what you mean by “foil,>” or what you think Jill Stein has to do with the Democratic Party. Have you just displayed your total ignorance?
Jill Stein is the candidate of the Green Party.
It is so nice that Jill Stein is a Greenpeace follower. Do you also happen to know whether she is a Christian? My small congregation might consider voting for her on these two counts!
Thank you for your selfless support of Jill Stein Katherine! Please tell us where could one send donations to Jill. Our Synagogue members would all be happy to support her financially while there is still time. The Elections clock is joyfully ticking and our our hearts are full of trepidation.
Oh, for heavens’ sake, stop that juvenile circus… “Churches”, “synagogues” … where did you dig that stuff up?… For all I care, I might now even vote for Donald Trump, just to shut you up……
Slight note to a good post is on the Freedom Fighter in the Ecuadoran Embassy, I believe he is Australian. He grew up in the North East of the country in a Police State called Queensland under the rule of Joh Bjelke-Petersen. Although you could be easily forgiven for believing he was American as Australia has been an American occupied vassal since WW2.
The few political alternatives have been short runned before they were taken out, Harold Holt, Gough Whitlam, and more recently Kevin Rudd.
The ignorance in the general Australian population is also dumbfounding but under the surface, there is a feeling that things are not right but when challenged, they will spout the usual controlled media platitudes. Ironically it is also a source of resistance in the information war with some notables coming to the fore.
In the unlikely event an honest person gets in I am not sure it much matters. The country is a plutocracy run by elites in Wall Street, banking and the MIC. They control the Mass Media and pretty much everything.
@ Lumi Interesting take on 9/11 Truth and all the smorgasbord of competing theories and contradictory “evidence”.
However, this novel theory claiming 3,000 people did not die could be tested, surely, in a number of fairly conclusive ways, could it not? I don’t see such tests in this link. Do you?
The 30 year idea is not so difficult to imagine. Christopher Bollyn’s evidence in his work on the subject (decades old movie scripts preparing the popular mindset, etc) supports such an idea. But not the radical conclusion of there being far, far fewer real victims than 3000.
Truth, or one more hoax obstacle in a massively complex course of obstacles designed to tire out the average person and make them give up in mental exhaustion? What’s your take on it, and why?
Hi Anonymous, it’s not another 9/11 theory and it’s been published from around mid 2010 onwards. But I’ve come across it only recently because, as you very appropriately say, 9/11 is “a massively complex course of obstacles designed to tire out the average person and make them give up in mental exhaustion”. And so I had given up.
My take is that Phil Jayhan and Larry McWilliams on LetsRollForums (LRF) have found the truth about 9/11. The WTC towers were built as an illusion, partly hollow, fitted with a shutter/lighting system to simulate activity, gutted and empty on 9/11, video pixel airplanes, a fake smoke pipe system installed, fake dummy jumpers, controlled demolition using suitable conventional explosives and dust cloud devices (to hide what’s going on), no casualties (except maybe some by accident), massive fake victim campaign … basically Hollywood in Manhattan. TV rules!
Before I found their forum, I was convinced that there were no planes, but all the other was completely new and first unbelievable to me. But once you see the photo (and videos) with the fake smoke pipe system you must acknowledge that we’ve all been massively fooled.
If you read older posts by Phil and Larry, you’ll find they’ve been erring and struggling over the years like everyone else. For instance, at some point, they thought there were real planes. But they persevered and were rewarded with the truth.
Besides Phil and Larry (do2read), there’s a guy called loopDloop with more fascinating research.
There is an old saying that goes something like,”never underestimate the stupidity of the average American voter. And you’ll never be disappointed”. I won’t get into the reasons for those voter problems (it would take me all night for that). But I can attest through many years of life among them that that saying is valid. And as one tiny example,there is a petition getting voter signatures on the streets of California. It asks for Hillary Clinton to pick for her “running mate” for Vice President a fellow you may have heard of,a certain Mr Karl Marx. The fact that he’s “rather well known”.not a US citizen, and oh yeah,”dead”,didn’t seem to stop US voters from signing that petition.
plan a –
ensure that last man standing would be the chosen one, by hook or by crook.
in the extreme unlikelihood of a freak result when someone like william blum is elected,
goes to plan b –
william blum If I were the president, I could stop terrorist attacks against the United States in a few days. Permanently. I would first apologize – very publicly and very sincerely – to all the widows and the orphans, the impoverished and the tortured, and all the many millions of other victims of American imperialism. I would then announce that America’s global interventions – including the awful bombings – have come to an end. And I would inform Israel that it is no longer the 51st state of the union but – oddly enough – a foreign country. I would then reduce the military budget by at least 90% and use the savings to pay reparations to the victims and repair the damage from the many American bombings and invasions. There would be more than enough money. Do you know what one year of the US military budget is equal to? One year. It’s equal to more than $20,000 per hour for every hour since Jesus Christ was born
That’s what I’d do on my first three days in the White House. On the fourth day, I’d be assassinated
The White House plans to pay for the additional weapons and equipment [in Central and Eastern Europe] with a budget request of more than $3.4 billion for military spending in Europe in 2017, several officials said Monday, more than quadrupling the current budget of $789 million.
Eventually, RT will be taken off line, I think, if events continue to grind along in the direction they appear to be headed, barring a miracle. I suppose it’s possible to get a VPS, and I suppose that might be a wise choice anyway for persons still hoping to make sense of the world on line, but the way the wind is blowing, and the weather, by the time RT and other remaining well meaning truthful media centers are concealed completely from view, we’ll be descending into such complete chaos that it won’t be critical what the truth is at that point anyway.
By listening to those croostalks, it looks like that RT and theirs guests are so afraid of being labelled as “Nazis” that they never dare to talk about the Zionist running “the West” . They are trying to explain that the Middle-East crisis is just a question of who will own the pipeline in Syria, they do not want to say that the main issue is the axis of resistance ( Iran Syria, Hezbollah) against Israel. It is almost a Marxist view: everything is money, it is not true, the resistance motivation against Israel is not a question of money, it is a fight againt the Zionist slavedrivers running Israel and Washington.
It is the fight of every decent human creature who does not want to be turn into slavery.
To this very day; I still wonder about Peter’s super-human abilities to effortlessly gather three of my favorite people in the whole world under the same roof (or studio ;-) )
Dimity: big fan of his. Mark: I adore him, since, like… FOREVER!
Rory: one of the RT-news head/senior presenters who just happens to be the epitome of class and charm, with an elegant wit that always manages to get the rough-edges off things > at the right time.
A well-informed person who loves his job and also has his heart in the right place… namely: being instinctively against the 2003 Iraq war while still working for the CNN – non the less! [lol], for example…
Great all encompassing conversation. Laval has blue eyes. Hard to call this propaganda if it is the truth….not saying RT is not capable of propaganda but in most instances relaying the truth is like blockbusting the western lies and obfuscation.
Saker
Would you be willing to provide your input on the national theatre of presidential candidates? Are any honest? How would you vet them?
Also, CrossTalk and RT in general offer some of the best political news show available to the western public. Peter deserves an award for refusing to stand down to the Empire.

Interesting news in the US tonight along the lines you are talking about. Clinton the neo-con golden girl is in a dead-heat finish with her democratic socialist challenger for the Democractic Party nomination. After all the help from the elite machine she has had for a year to rig the vote they ended (according to RT ) at 49.8% for Clinton.And 49.6 for Sanders. While among Republicans the front runner Trump lost to the rabid neo-con Russophobe Cruz 27% to 24%.
Nils,
The candidates:
The Democrat and Republican gangs are twin, bought (mostly by Zionist oligarchs), political Mafias. Their job is to pretend democracy, while following the program set by the Wealthy power elite (dominated by the Zionists).
All the candidates are bought Agents for the Imperialist Oligarchs. Of all the presidential candidates, only Rand Paul is caught up in the maelstrom of the supreme power of the imperialist Oligarchs, and although attempting to follow in his father’s (the distinguished Congressman Ron Paul’s), footsteps, he has made too many opportunist compromises, and, in doing so, has faded into the background, earning only 3% of the delegate vote in Iowa.
Imperialist socialist Sanders voted for all the funds (many $Billions) for his masters, the Zionist Land Thieves, and for all America’s imperialist wars, from Iraq 1 & 2, to Afghanistan, to Libya, to Syria, and all the others. He supports all the Police State agencies, as well. Oligarch Trump is corrupt, and having little political base, is as pathetic as the others.
H Clinton & the other candidates are all from Mordor, and I will not mention their names here – again.
Try to Recall:
In America, our Republic has been Overthrown in a CIA-MOSSAD coup d’etat in Dallas. This terrorist military pattern inaugurated the First of the Modern Operational overthrows of governments by the post-WW II alliance of Zionist American Oligarchs. It happened on November 22, 1963. These styles of government overthrows are currently better known as ‘Arab Springs’. It all began in Dallas, where the Caesarites crossed the Rubicon and assassinated the Republic.
America was imperialist before, but after 1963, nothing has been the same, as our last Constitutional President, John Kennedy, was overthrown, and his brother, Robert Kennedy was assassinated by the same forces – to prevent him from becoming President, and possibly, restoring the Constitutional Government. Nothing was the same. The Government and its candidates are all frauds.
Kennedy was the last President to conduct reasonable political relations with Russia (the USSR), and come to reasonable, and tenable, compromises. During the Bay of Pigs, (the CIA attempt to overthrow the Cuban Revolutionary Government), JF Kennedy refused to use American Air power to help the CIA (he explained that to do so without a Declaration of War – by Congress, was Unconstitutional). Later Kennedy worked a deal with Khrushchev, where Russia removed missiles from Cuba, and the US removed theirs from Italy and Turkey. The compromise prevented World War III.
After Kennedy’s Presidency, each president has been unconstitutional (illegitimate). Congress has decayed at the same rate. Each phony President has been worse, and more craven than the last. The next will be more criminal and subservient than the previous. Write in your favorite here……………………
President Nixon was in Dallas the day Kennedy was shot.
VP LB Johnson, had been a corrupt Texas Congressman who (it was rumored), had business associates murdered. He was also in Dallas on that day. President Ford was never elected. He was appointed twice, once as Vice President; later, he replaced Nixon as President, after Nixon was ousted by the same oligarchs he had conspired with in Dallas. Ford had been the Director of the CIA, and was a member of the Warren Commission, which decided on which Fairy Tale to regale the American rubes with – following Kennedy’s assassination.
See any links here? See any Constitutional Legitimacy in the American Government?
One of the most powerful oligarchs, Nelson Rockefeller, was not elected, but appointed Vice President – by Ford.. Reagan, as with Obomber, came from Hollywood. Bill Clinton was – the frontman for the destruction of Yugoslavia and the bombing of Belgrade.
America is not an Independent nation. Last year the American Congress welcomed its Actual Presiding President, Netenyahoo, sublimely received his orders, and gave him standing ovation after ovation.
Since WW II the Zionist Americans have murdered more than 4 million humans, and overthrown dozens of governments..
Now for the Bad News:
America has No Political Opposition – Whatever! There was more opposition to Hitler’s Nazi dictatorship in Germany, many times more, than there is in the ‘so-called ‘democratic’ US of A.
Don’t misunderstand me. I love my country – its people. We have had our moments. The remnants of the ever weak American political opposition have been physically liquidated, (J. Kennedy, R Kennedy, ML King, Malcolm X, Fred Hampton, John Lennon, and hundreds of less known. Our best known Freedom Fighter -breathes, thanks to Vladimir Putin giving him sanctuary. Another is imprisoned in the Ecuadoran Embassy, the other, a soldier, is serving a life sentence in a Real American Military prison. The fortunate McKinney, Ron Paul, Jesse Ventura, Dennis Kucinich, ane a few others are politically marginalized, isolated in the great emptiness.
Thousands more are dispersed, intimidated, and aging.
I write this as the Police are knocking at my door!!!
For the Democratic Republics, the ones we defend, and the ones we need to restore!

Sanders voted against the Iraq war,not for it. He’s talked for years about helping lead what little opposition there was in Congress against that war.

Uncle Bob 1
“Sanders voted against the Iraq war,not for it. He’s talked for years about helping lead what little opposition there was in Congress against that war.”
A quote from the Zionist imperialist candidate, himself, is not proof; your provided link is only to his election propaganda for the Rubes.
“Looking back, I think the war was a mistake.” from Sanders, utterly exposes and condemns him.
The War/s against Iraq, were not a ‘mistake,’ they were a major imperialist Crime Against Humanity, which destroyed an estiimated 1 million of its citizens, and dispersed millions more, and flattened its cities, and destroyed its independence. And, And, And, that double dealing misleading Bastard voted for all the $funds to prosecute that war, and all Zionist America’ subsequent imperialist wars.
In his campaign, Sanders does not broach (discuss America’s foreign policy). He is programmed not to do so by his masters. He promises Butter with the Guns (although he is willing to disarm the American people, (control their guns), but not the weapons of the American Military, or their $financial complex, of of the 16 Police State agencies (who consume $Billions of the Government’s budget). Guns with Butter, Gins with Butter, Zionist Americans can repress the planet, and eat well – too (at least butter their bread as they help slaughter the Palestinians, other Arabs, Vietnamese, and Russians).
“Do not look for help there!” – or something like that, from – Tolkien
Some who hope for Sanders to be a good person, and who vote for him, may be well intentioned, but most are Rubes and Sheeple (the Sheeple know better but have not the heart to see the true situation On The Ground, (to use a military phrase). They cannot face the cold hard truth, pick themselves up, wipe off the dust, clench their teeth, and continue from there.
Trump may be the least evil of the bunch, and that is not saying, or implying much. Some of my Good Old Boys on the Peninsula like him (a little). He has expressed a bit of will to -wheel and deal- with the Russian leaders. The “front runner Trump” emerged in a dead heat, with the other Republicans, as the 4 percentage points between 1st and 2nd place is not considered much of a difference. Trump cannot be relied upon for any consistent Constitutional leadership, and he is a decades long friend of the Clintons.
Hang in there. It is not over till the fat Lady sings. And Hilary Clinton cannot sing – a note.
Peter,I shouldn’t have to prove “plain truths” to you. You can look them up yourself. Its not a “state secret” on how a Senator votes in Congress. Sanders said he voted against the war,simply because he did.But still here you are again,”Sanders voted against the resolutions authorizing the use of force against Iraq in 1991 and 2002, and opposed the 2003 invasion of Iraq”.He also said just a couple of weeks ago that the US shouldn’t get involved in military actions in the Middle East (especially Syria). I heard it during one of the debates. I’m not defending him as a “paragon of virtue” are anything like that. None of the US Presidential candidates are worthy to hold that office in my opinion. But still,I have a problem with the truth. I like to see it stated at all times.If you don’t like him,or any of them for that matter. That’s fine,its your choice. But what is not your choice is to state incorrect statements as true,and to expect them to just be accepted without pointing that out to you.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernie_Sanders#Political_positions
Uncle Bob, 1, 2, & 3,
Sanders voted for the funds for ALLLLL the imperialist Wars. The $$$money is what counts. His Hot Air about opposing these wars was just that.
He also votes for Alll the $Billions to balance the Land Thieves’ government budget. He votes for the $$funds for the Land Thieve’s settlements in Palestine.
Warning! Sanders is a Judas Goat! He resembles imperialist socialist Hollande, but without the girlish charm. Sanders & Hollande serve the same Masters.
You say, ” I’m not defending him as a “paragon of virtue” are anything like that.” But you are defending him as something better than a complicit War Criminal, Land Thief, and MOSSAD mis-direction agent.
The government of the US of A is a puppet Zionist imperialist establishment, conducting a Circus election, a Circus pretense at being a Constitutional Republic, and displaying a Seriously Competent ability to Pied Piper the American Sheeple, and the World’s humans to continual decay (if they are lucky), and, possibly, utter destruction.
Do you see the serious difficulties the Russian and other world Leaders operate under? They have to deal with this horror, this monster. And they have absolutely no hope of rescue from the American Citizenry.
Fidel Castro said in an interview in “Penthouse Magazine-1978,” that there would never be a Revolution in the United States. Thirty Eight years later, I still hope he was wrong. Understand, that the Leaders of other Nations believe the situation for humanity is all but hopeless. What they correctly understand, is the Gravity of the world political cesspool (great difficulty and danger) represented by the Zionist American imperialists. And that danger is magnified by the great weakness of internal opposition in these regimes.
Within the imperialist nations, only France has anything resembling a significantly large, substantially correct, and reasonably courageous political opposition.
I cannot candy coat this for you. If Sanders was any good, he would not be a Senator, he would be a poor man – given to leafleting, and arguing with you.
We need to restore the Republic, while there is still time! It is The Only Road.
“You say, ” I’m not defending him as a “paragon of virtue” are anything like that.” But you are defending him as something better than a complicit War Criminal, Land Thief, and MOSSAD mis-direction agent.”
I think I’m made my position clear on many occasions. But let me “refresh” it for you. I don’t think anything other than an American Spring will bring the change needed. But without either a vast military defeat or a massive economic collapse (or both) will that come to pass. Though I’d like to see something positive come about without that. I strongly doubt it will.
“The government of the US of A is a puppet Zionist imperialist establishment, conducting a Circus election, a Circus pretense at being a Constitutional Republic, and displaying a Seriously Competent ability to Pied Piper the American Sheeple, and the World’s humans to continual decay (if they are lucky), and, possibly, utter destruction.”
Yes,I agree. But that is the “system” the capitalists have made. And that we,and all the peoples in the West (and much of the World). Have stood around and let them structure the World like that. Since we “refuse” to do anything to change it as yet. We must, to get anything done, work for any improvement we can get within it. That “may” or “may not” be possible. But to do otherwise, leaves us with zero ability to see “any and all” change in our lifetime. I’m not willing to see no improvement “at all” during what’s left of my life,if I can help it. If you are willing to,that’s your choice.
“Do you see the serious difficulties the Russian and other world Leaders operate under? They have to deal with this horror, this monster. And they have absolutely no hope of rescue from the American Citizenry.”
Of course I do. But its also a system that they helped establish as well. And certainly I don’t see from them the needed effort to fully change it. When (if) I ever do see that needed effort,I’ll applaud them.
“Fidel Castro said in an interview in “Penthouse Magazine-1978,” that there would never be a Revolution in the United States. Thirty Eight years later, I still hope he was wrong. Understand, that the Leaders of other Nations believe the situation for humanity is all but hopeless. What they correctly understand, is the Gravity of the world political cesspool (great difficulty and danger) represented by the Zionist American imperialists. And that danger is magnified by the great weakness of internal opposition in these regimes.”
Of course I remember. I was a “Fidelista” long before it was “cool”. And I have to agree with him (unless/until the points I talked of above come about). As for the “leaders” of other nations. Except for a handful of them (I could probably count them on one hand) that resist the US. All the rest are more than willing to throw their citizens under the bus to serve the empire.
“Within the imperialist nations, only France has anything resembling a significantly large, substantially correct, and reasonably courageous political opposition.”
You give far more credit than is due to the French opposition. Other than talk,I see zero change they have brought about in France.And the latest election shows that the system there is rigged so tightly that becoming the largest “vote getting” party “still” didn’t get them even one important election win. The “magic” of the Second Round destroyed that (as it was made to do).
“I cannot candy coat this for you. If Sanders was any good, he would not be a Senator, he would be a poor man – given to leafleting, and arguing with you.”
In which case he wouldn’t be running in the election (and winning a lot of voters). He’d be like some other people (you and me) posting on blogs only. Even though in my head I know (as I stated above) what is needed to bring on an “American Spring”. In my heart,I foolishly hope (OK I’m human,what can I say) that there are other ways to avoid that. And anything that might bring on some change is worth trying. We are witnessing (no matter what you say) the most serious “challenge” to the total elite control the US has seen in my lifetime. Both Trump and Sanders from opposite ends of the “accepted” political spectrum are upending the system. And the system is trying as much as they can, to prevent that. Will “either” of them succeed,I don’t know (though I doubt it). But regardless,their very attempts are denting it. And so that in itself is better than doing “nothing”.
On another related note. I don’t understand your fanatical loyalty to the memory of Jack Kennedy. I liked him (as much as I could any US politician in my life),but he wasn’t a paragon of virtue either. I remember his career well. He was a great speaker,able to move people with his words. But the results are something else.He was responsible (a lot of that was his brother’s doing.Another one you seem to idolize) for the attempts to kill Castro. And was more than willing to back the “Playa Giron”, if and “when” it succeeded. He was afraid of World reaction if it was “blatant” backing (i.e. actual military support). But,while the plan first came from Eisenhower’s regime. He “tweaked” it and ran with it. He also expanded the Vietnam intervention. And worked hand and glove with the plot to murder Diem. It was only when he realized the generals and CIA were lying to him with all those operations. That they misrepresented the chances of success in Cuba and Vietnam that he called a halt to his support. He did help solve the so-called “Cuban Missile Crisis”. But it was a crisis that he brought about to begin with. It was the “Playa Giron” that made the Cubans want the missiles for defense. And the Soviets agreed. Hoping to counter the advantage the US had with missiles close to their borders. The almost destruction of the World in a nuclear holocaust woke Kennedy up. And he began trying to tamp down the Cold War. To make a deal with Cuba and the Soviets. As well as find a way to exit from Vietnam. And then he was killed. Was it because of those reasons,maybe? We can’t be sure right now. But the likelihood is great on that. He was one of the “better” US Presidents certainly. But that is relative,when considering the US political culture. My “liking” for him boils down for the “possibility” of a World at peace he seemed to want. And much less about him personally.Though I have great sympathy over his murder. I also remember that his actions as President caused the deaths of thousands of people in the World.
Uncle Bob 1,
” The almost destruction of the World in a nuclear holocaust woke Kennedy up. And he began trying to tamp down the Cold War. To make a deal with Cuba and the Soviets.

A reasonable assessment. I agree substantially.
You write the phrase, “My “liking” for him,,,” I also liked him, although, in those times, I liked Joan Baez more, (demonstrated with her -& a hundred thousand others- in Washington DC). Was 3 feet from her & her guitar. But I digress.
You conclude: “. I also remember that his actions as President caused the deaths of thousands of people in the World.”
Not sure if his actions caused any deaths – at all. I believe, “he began trying to tamp down the Cold War.” And by attempting that… he signed his own Death Warrant. JFK, and 2 of his 3 brothers gave their lives for their country & for world peace. Additionally, JFK attempted to end American and European colonialism. And, JFK would not have permitted the Zionist Land Thieves to continue their depredations against the Palestinians. He blocked them, then. He also controlled the FBI & CIA, is was proper in a Constitutional Republic (& not the other way around as it is – today). He replaced CIA head, Allen Dulles.
I could continue. He accomplished much in 1000 days. The contrast between our last Constitutional President, and the subsequent Zionist puppets and complicit imperialist butchers, is that of Day versus Night. *And that is the point*.
It appears we are not far apart. I enjoy this wonderful Forum of – The Saker.
Peter
Yes I think we agree more than we disagree on most issues. Thanks Peter.
I am for Jill Stein.
She points out the weaknesses of Bernie Sanders’s position whereby if he cannot get the nomination he will bow to Clinton and support.
In other words, Stein points out the problems of Sanders’s commitment to the Dem Party and the need for a viable separate party:
> http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article43832.htm.
If Sanders get the nomination I guess I will vote for him, although I think voters must pin him down on his cabinet appointments. (And who will be his VP?) To avoid the Obama complex of getting the same cabal in the cabinet that was a horror show in the previous admiisitration. As many have said already. as soon as Obama appointedLarry Summers his economic adviser or whatever it was, just weeks after the election, I knew the fix was in. Bummer.
If the Dem candidate is Hillary, I will be voting for Jill Stein.
Katherine
The only right thing for you to do in any of the scenarios you describe Katherine, is that you abstain from voting. Do not give validity to a hopelessly corrupt political system. Else, the “winner” will joyfully laugh into your face, while you are still realising you have been duped. Jill Stein, Jack Rothschild … no difference, they are only part of a cruel mirage in your gentle eyes. Our friend Peter Antonsen above is absolutely correct here, kindly give a good thought to what he said.
Although he too, perhaps (if I correctly understand his exclamation), might benefit from a short history lesson (say, from Zinn’s People’s History of the United States): “The Republic” of the XVIII century was not at all as is nowadays wholesale advertised to the young sheeple in the American middle schools by the Establishment. Its very founders were as corrupt and ill intentioned as their present day U.S. progeny – while feathering their future ruling nest. In place of pining for the fictitious “good old bygone times”, it behoves one to check some unadulterated facts.
@”Else, the “winner” will joyfully laugh into your face, while you are still realising you have been duped. Jill Stein, Jack Rothschild … ”
what brings you to couple Stein with Jack Rothschild? Not that I know who the latter is, but are you tossing all pepole with Jewish last names into one bucket?
I very much doubt that you know anything about Dr. Jill Stein. How about listening to what she actually has to say? Very intelligent. And, she has been in in politics for a good long time.
You may decide to abstain (are you an American citizen? I doubt it). But your “sage” advice is silly. Apparently you think withholding one’s vote will help bring down the system. That has not worked so far. Every year fewer and fewer pepole vote, and the system gets more and more corrupt and doesn’t seem to be disappearing. Your logic???
IMO it is a better use on one’s vote to cast it for a person and party one actually approves of. That is not “throwing away one’s vote” or “helpoing support the system.”
I also find it a bit questionalbe for someone who I presume is not a US citizen to give silly directives to Americans on how to vote.
So, your superior style comments (“your gentle eyes”) are easily dismissed.
Katherine
Dear Katherine, I am deeply sorry if you misunderstood what I said. I merely wanted to prevent that you feel stupid after realising you were duped by voting for that Stein woman, or whatever. However, you are obviously quite lucky that you can not possibly feel so. Every dark cloud has a silver lining!
I understand very well what you said, where you stand, and what a dupe you are of your own conceit.
Katherine
Katherine,
It seems most of the wolves in sheeps’ clothing have their appropriate political ‘foil’: perhaps Jill stein for the democrats and rand Paul for the republicans.
I think they serve to attract those who know better about the state of the empire. But they will never be allowed to actually set policy or win.
@”t seems most of the wolves in sheeps’ clothing have their appropriate political ‘foil’: perhaps Jill stein for the democrats and rand Paul for the republicans. ”
Not sure what you mean by “foil,>” or what you think Jill Stein has to do with the Democratic Party. Have you just displayed your total ignorance?
Jill Stein is the candidate of the Green Party.
Katherine
@ Katherine
It is so nice that Jill Stein is a Greenpeace follower. Do you also happen to know whether she is a Christian? My small congregation might consider voting for her on these two counts!
Thank you.
Christina
Thank you for your selfless support of Jill Stein Katherine! Please tell us where could one send donations to Jill. Our Synagogue members would all be happy to support her financially while there is still time. The Elections clock is joyfully ticking and our our hearts are full of trepidation.
Oh, for heavens’ sake, stop that juvenile circus… “Churches”, “synagogues” … where did you dig that stuff up?… For all I care, I might now even vote for Donald Trump, just to shut you up……
Slight note to a good post is on the Freedom Fighter in the Ecuadoran Embassy, I believe he is Australian. He grew up in the North East of the country in a Police State called Queensland under the rule of Joh Bjelke-Petersen. Although you could be easily forgiven for believing he was American as Australia has been an American occupied vassal since WW2.
The few political alternatives have been short runned before they were taken out, Harold Holt, Gough Whitlam, and more recently Kevin Rudd.
The ignorance in the general Australian population is also dumbfounding but under the surface, there is a feeling that things are not right but when challenged, they will spout the usual controlled media platitudes. Ironically it is also a source of resistance in the information war with some notables coming to the fore.
In the unlikely event an honest person gets in I am not sure it much matters. The country is a plutocracy run by elites in Wall Street, banking and the MIC. They control the Mass Media and pretty much everything.
» What they don’t want you to see is that there is no controlling legal authority left in America. « — The 9/11 Truth Movement – 30 Year Conspiracy Inside a Conspiracy [LetsRollForums]
@ Lumi Interesting take on 9/11 Truth and all the smorgasbord of competing theories and contradictory “evidence”.
However, this novel theory claiming 3,000 people did not die could be tested, surely, in a number of fairly conclusive ways, could it not? I don’t see such tests in this link. Do you?
The 30 year idea is not so difficult to imagine. Christopher Bollyn’s evidence in his work on the subject (decades old movie scripts preparing the popular mindset, etc) supports such an idea. But not the radical conclusion of there being far, far fewer real victims than 3000.
Truth, or one more hoax obstacle in a massively complex course of obstacles designed to tire out the average person and make them give up in mental exhaustion? What’s your take on it, and why?
Hi Anonymous, it’s not another 9/11 theory and it’s been published from around mid 2010 onwards. But I’ve come across it only recently because, as you very appropriately say, 9/11 is “a massively complex course of obstacles designed to tire out the average person and make them give up in mental exhaustion”. And so I had given up.
My take is that Phil Jayhan and Larry McWilliams on LetsRollForums (LRF) have found the truth about 9/11. The WTC towers were built as an illusion, partly hollow, fitted with a shutter/lighting system to simulate activity, gutted and empty on 9/11, video pixel airplanes, a fake smoke pipe system installed, fake dummy jumpers, controlled demolition using suitable conventional explosives and dust cloud devices (to hide what’s going on), no casualties (except maybe some by accident), massive fake victim campaign … basically Hollywood in Manhattan. TV rules!
Before I found their forum, I was convinced that there were no planes, but all the other was completely new and first unbelievable to me. But once you see the photo (and videos) with the fake smoke pipe system you must acknowledge that we’ve all been massively fooled.
Everything’s been published on LRF, most of it in these two subforums:
911 For the Tired, Weary, Hustled Masses
The World Trade Center – Hollow & Empty on 9/11
If you read older posts by Phil and Larry, you’ll find they’ve been erring and struggling over the years like everyone else. For instance, at some point, they thought there were real planes. But they persevered and were rewarded with the truth.
Besides Phil and Larry (do2read), there’s a guy called loopDloop with more fascinating research.
There is an old saying that goes something like,”never underestimate the stupidity of the average American voter. And you’ll never be disappointed”. I won’t get into the reasons for those voter problems (it would take me all night for that). But I can attest through many years of life among them that that saying is valid. And as one tiny example,there is a petition getting voter signatures on the streets of California. It asks for Hillary Clinton to pick for her “running mate” for Vice President a fellow you may have heard of,a certain Mr Karl Marx. The fact that he’s “rather well known”.not a US citizen, and oh yeah,”dead”,didn’t seem to stop US voters from signing that petition.

If I were the president, I could stop terrorist attacks against the United States in a few days. Permanently. I would first apologize – very publicly and very sincerely – to all the widows and the orphans, the impoverished and the tortured, and all the many millions of other victims of American imperialism. I would then announce that America’s global interventions – including the awful bombings – have come to an end. And I would inform Israel that it is no longer the 51st state of the union but – oddly enough – a foreign country. I would then reduce the military budget by at least 90% and use the savings to pay reparations to the victims and repair the damage from the many American bombings and invasions. There would be more than enough money. Do you know what one year of the US military budget is equal to? One year. It’s equal to more than $20,000 per hour for every hour since Jesus Christ was born
That’s what I’d do on my first three days in the White House. On the fourth day, I’d be assassinated

Eventually, RT will be taken off line, I think, if events continue to grind along in the direction they appear to be headed, barring a miracle. I suppose it’s possible to get a VPS, and I suppose that might be a wise choice anyway for persons still hoping to make sense of the world on line, but the way the wind is blowing, and the weather, by the time RT and other remaining well meaning truthful media centers are concealed completely from view, we’ll be descending into such complete chaos that it won’t be critical what the truth is at that point anyway.
By listening to those croostalks, it looks like that RT and theirs guests are so afraid of being labelled as “Nazis” that they never dare to talk about the Zionist running “the West” . They are trying to explain that the Middle-East crisis is just a question of who will own the pipeline in Syria, they do not want to say that the main issue is the axis of resistance ( Iran Syria, Hezbollah) against Israel. It is almost a Marxist view: everything is money, it is not true, the resistance motivation against Israel is not a question of money, it is a fight againt the Zionist slavedrivers running Israel and Washington.
It is the fight of every decent human creature who does not want to be turn into slavery.

Great all encompassing conversation. Laval has blue eyes. Hard to call this propaganda if it is the truth….not saying RT is not capable of propaganda but in most instances relaying the truth is like blockbusting the western lies and obfuscation.
