<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Here are America\u2019s recent targets for regime-change (against which have been used economic sanctions, invasion, and enormous destruction) \u2014 and all of them are nations that never invaded nor threatened to invade America:<\/span><\/p>\n Iraq 2003, Libya 2011, Syria\u00a02011-2018, Yemen 2015-now,\u00a0Ukraine 2014<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, and Venezuela 2017-now.<\/span><\/p>\n Because all of these were and are aggressive wars by the US against nations that never invaded nor threatened to invade the US, they all ought to be subject to mega-criminal prosecutions as was done by the US, Britain, and USSR, against Germany at the Nuremberg Tribunals after World War II. That was merely victors\u2019 \u2018justice\u2019, applied by the US, Britain and USSR, but this would instead be actual international justice, the first instance of such in all of world history. It\u2019s desperately needed \u2014 especially now.<\/span><\/p>\n America\u2019s Government and news-media were and are remarkably unanimous in saying that these invasions and coups are and were done in order to advance democracy and human rights in the given target-nation. However, what it actually brings and has brought, in each and every case, is, instead, massive bloodshed, death, poverty, destruction, and outpourings of refugees \u2014 and an increasingly dangerous world, the current world.<\/span><\/p>\n Is this lying, by the US and its allies, and their \u2018news\u2019-media, mere hypocrisy, or is it something even worse \u2014 far worse? In any case, only a fair and international juridical tribunal that\u2019s controlled by no nation and by no alliance of nations can possibly deliver a credible verdict on this. And, so, such international criminal trials must be organized and carried out, or else even worse can be expected to occur. Impunity is desirable only by and for gangsters, and no land where it exists can reasonably be called \u201cdemocratic.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n America\u2019s news-media \u2014 especially the mainstream ones \u2014 not only cover-up important truths, but they routinely lie. Both the Democratic Party\u2019s media and the Republican Party\u2019s media report the same lies, which are the Government\u2019s lies, on these international matters. These are lies on which there is bipartisan unity by the nation\u2019s press (and by both political Parties), in order to deceive the public, into support for invading and occupying, or overthrowing via a coup or otherwise, some foreign government. Their target is always a government which America\u2019s billionaires who control international corporations want to replace, and so the US regime unanimously lies against that targeted government, as being dangerous and evil, even though the given takeover-target has never invaded, nor threatened to invade, the United States \u2014 is no\u00a0real\u00a0national-security threat to the American people. Only on the basis of lies can that succeed. This is the main function of the press, in such countries: deceit, on those international matters.<\/span><\/p>\n In other words: the US Government is fascist, like the Axis powers were in World War II. This is worse than, for example, merely wasting billions of dollars on building a border-wall against Mexico in order to protect Americans, but it receives far less press-attention (perhaps because the press is so unanimous in endorsing and supporting these atrocities \u2014 and that\u2019s yet further evidence of the American regime\u2019s fascism). The press is owned by, and funded by ads, and donations from, America\u2019s billionaires, the very same people who fund our politicians and who also own controlling interests in the weapons-firms such as Lockheed Martin, which can\u2019t survive without these weapons-sales, and which therefore demand constant conquests, in order to create new markets for their wares, new \u201callied nations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n So, naturally, America\u2019s military is mainly the enforcement-arm of the billionaires who control US-based international corporations (especially the weapons-firms and the extractive firms such as mining and fuels, which corporations crave to control foreign natural resources), and those people also control America\u2019s Government and press, and this produces the unanimity for these regime-change operations \u2014 which likewise fits the fascist model.<\/span><\/p>\n The US is clearly the world\u2019s leading fascist nation, and there is no close second (and none of the nations that the US regime is trying to conquer is fascist at all). What Germany was under Hitler, the US is and has been at least since the time of US President Ronald Reagan. The US has been a\u00a0dictatorship<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0since\u00a0at least 1981<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Coup or invasion (either form of aggression) is an international war-crime, but the deceit against America\u2019s public usually succeeds, because the public trust especially the billionaire-controlled mainstream press, which is always leading these lies-for-conquest.<\/span><\/p>\n Furthermore, almost all of the \u2018alternative news\u2019 media are likewise owned by (and funded by ads or donations from) wealthy interests that participate in and benefit from this mass-deceit \u2014 from the stenographic \u2018news\u2019 reporting, the Government\u2019s accusations against the particular target-nation that\u2019s about to be (or has been) regime-changed.<\/span><\/p>\n For example, all of America\u2019s \u2019news\u2019-media were stenographically reporting the US Government\u2019s many lies about \u2018Saddam Hussein\u2019s WMD’, in order to \u2018justify\u2019 America\u2019s kicking out the UN\u2019s weapons-inspectors and simply bombing Iraq and invading and militarily occupying, and basically\u00a0destroying<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, that country (which had never invaded ours) in 2003. All of America\u2019s \u2018news\u2019 media did the same, but especially all of the mainstream ones did, of both the right and the left, all the way from Fox News to the\u00a0New York Times<\/em>. They all were\u00a0hiding the truth and lying to support an illegal invasion \u2014 an international war-crime under international law, and violation of the UN\u2019s Charter<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Did Americans stop buying those \u2018news’papers and watching those \u2019news\u2019 channels, and buying those \u2019news\u2019 magazines, after the truth became reluctantly exposed (during\u00a02002-2005) that those \u2018WMD\u2019 didn\u2019t exist and no longer had existed after 1998? No, those same ‘news\u2019-media still are successful. (They all\u00a0ought\u00a0to be long-since out-of-business, but such accountability doesn\u2019t exist in the news-business. Not only does a major \u2018news\u2019-medium hide its own corruption and lying but it hides that of all other major \u2018news\u2019-media, because otherwise the entire \u2018democratic\u2019 system of control by the nation\u2019s billionaires would simply collapse.)<\/span><\/p>\n America\u2019s \u2018news\u2019-media report just as much false \u2018news\u2019 (not merely what they call \u201cfake news,\u201d but actually\u00a0false\u00a0<\/em>\u2018news\u2019) today, as they did back then, because America\u2019s \u2018news\u2019-media cover-up not only for themselves, but also for each other, since they all lie so routinely in order to \u2018justify\u2019 their Government\u2019s aggressions, coups, military invasions, foreign mass-murders, etc., and those invasions and coups are part of the unspoken business-plan of them all, for growth or expansion of their global control.<\/span><\/p>\n These atrocities are all done for \u2018national security\u2019 reasons, and in order to \u2018spread democracy\u2019, and in order to \u2018protect human rights around the world\u2019 \u2014 and Americans continue to believe it, and to believe the regime, and to subscribe to those same mainstream (and hangers-on) \u2019news\u2019-media. Accountability against lying doesn\u2019t exist in a hyper-aggressive \u2018democracy\u2019, a would-be all-encompassing global empire, which America has certainly become.<\/span><\/p>\n Today, these \u2019news\u2019-media\u00a0hide that they\u2019ve been lying when they report that Russia \u2018hacked\u2019 Hillary Clinton\u2019s email and John Podesta\u2019s computer<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Just click onto that, right there, and you will immediately see the latest documentation that it\u2019s all mere lies against Russia, which is the only nation that does actually possess the military wherewithal to stand up against the US regime (since it inherited the arsenal of the former Soviet Union when the Cold War ended in 1991 on their side \u2014 though that war\u00a0secretly continued and still is continuing on the American side<\/strong><\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n These fabrications could have many reasons, but perhaps the likeliest is in order to increase weapons-sales by Lockheed Martin and other US weapons-makers, all of which are\u00a0100% dependent upon their sales to the US Government and to its allied governments<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. (There are consequently interlocking directorates between the \u2018news\u2019-businesses and the armaments-firms, and the Wall Street banks, and the think tanks, etc.; and all of this is intensified by the revolving door between Government officials and the private sector, such as generals becoming directors of \u2018defense\u2019 firms.) But this fraud that \u2018Russia hacked the election\u2019 has been\u00a0exposed before<\/a><\/strong>, though not with the same thoroughness as it is in that latest news-report, which comes from the\u00a0\u201cSic Semper Tyrannus\u201d blog<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. You might happen to think that it must be \u2018fake news\u2019, because it\u2019s from a\u00a0non-mainstream site? It comes from Bill Binney, who is the NSA whistleblower who was the NSA\u2019s top signals-intelligence analyst before he quit in disgust at the Government\u2019s lying. Of course, he had tried all the mainstream \u2018news\u2019-media as prospective outlets for this news-report, but they\u2019re not interested in exposing the truth \u2014 because that would expose\u00a0themselves\u00a0<\/em>to be liars. Once a major lie is told, and told repeatedly, by a major \u2018news\u2019-medium, exposing that lie would be exposing itself \u2014 and\u00a0none<\/em>\u00a0do that.<\/span><\/p>\n They also hide that they\u2019ve been lying to report that America was justified to bomb Syria on 11 April 2018, justified to do it in order to punish Syria\u2019s Government for having perpetrated a chemical weapons attack on 7 April 2018 in the town of Douma \u2014 a chemical weapons attack that was actually\u00a0fabricated by the US and its allies<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, and which US Government lie is still being protected (hidden from the public) by the US regime\u2019s \u2019news\u2019 media, which media, for example, fail to report that the OPCW did not find any such attack to have occurred:<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cOPCW Issues Fact-Finding Mission Reports on Chemical Weapons Use Allegations in Douma, Syria in 2018 and in Al-Hamadaniya and Karm Al-Tarrab in 2016\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Friday, 06 July 2018<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n THE HAGUE, Netherlands \u2014 6 July 2018 \u2014 The Fact-Finding Mission (FFM) of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), issued an interim report on the FFM\u2019s investigation to date\u00a0<\/em>regarding the allegations of chemical weapons use in Douma, Syria on 7 April 2018<\/em><\/strong>.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n The FFM\u2019s activities in Douma included on-site visits to collect environmental samples, interviews with witnesses, data collection. In a neighbouring country, the FFM team gathered or received biological and environmental samples, and conducted witness interviews.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n OPCW designated labs conducted analysis of prioritised samples.\u00a0<\/em>The results show that no organophosphorous nerve agents or their degradation products were detected in the environmental samples or in the plasma samples taken from alleged casualties. Along with explosive residues, various chlorinated organic chemicals were found in samples from two sites, for which there is full chain of custody. Work by the team to establish the significance of these results is on-going. The FFM team will continue its work to draw final conclusions<\/em><\/strong>.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n If those \u201cfinal conclusions” are ever made public by OPCW, will you trust your \u2019news\u2019-media to report them honestly? And, if the conclusions never are published, will you think that the US regime and its \u2019news\u2019-media are war-criminals there, just as they were in Iraq, and Syria, and Yemen, and Ukraine, and so many other countries?<\/span><\/p>\n According to Russian Television, or \u201cRT\u201d \u2014 which all major \u2019news\u2019-media in the US and its allied regimes say is \u2018untrustworthy\u2019 \u2014\u00a0“Real \u2018obscene masquerade\u2019: How BBC depicted staged hospital scenes as proof of Douma chemical attack<\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/a>. That op-ed by the great British investigative journalist Vanessa Beeley, who specializes in Syria, isn\u2019t published by the BBC<\/em>, or by ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR, PBS, Fox, MSNBC, CNN,\u00a0New York Times,\u00a0Guardian<\/em>, or\u00a0Washington Post<\/em>. It\u2019s too honest, for that. Could this be part of the reason that\u00a0they\u00a0call RT \u2018fake news\u2019? If so, maybe RT should replace them, at least for international reporting.<\/span><\/p>\n And, before that, there was the claimed 21 August 2013 sarin gas attack in the town of Ghouta by Syria\u2019s Government, which was\u00a0actually done by the US Government\u2019s allies who were trying to overthrow and replace Syria\u2019s Government \u2014 it’s what\u2019s called a \u201cfalse flag attack” \u2014 one that\u2019s designed to be blamed against the other side<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, in order to serve as an \u2018excuse\u2019 to invade. The American Government and its \u2018news\u2019-media keep making suckers out of the American public this way, and yet the American public continue to subscribe to them \u2014 to pay their good money, for such evil propaganda. Apparently, nobody is even embarassed. It simply keeps happening, again and again.<\/span><\/p>\n Another recent example is the \u2018democratic revolution\u2019 in Ukraine in February 2014, which was\u00a0actually a US coup that destroyed that country<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n And the latest example is the\u00a0US<\/strong><\/span><\/a>-and-Canada<\/a><\/strong><\/span>-led effort to impose a\u00a0fascist regime in Venezuela<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Furthermore, as one of the perceptive reader-commenters to\u00a0that latest Binney article on \u2018Russiagate\u2019<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0noted: \u201cCraig Murray, in a very revealing but neglected interview with Scott Horton,\u00a0said<\/strong><\/span><\/a>: \u2018I should be plain that the Podesta emails and the DNC emails of course are two separate things and you shouldn’t conclude that both have the same source. But in both cases, we’re talking of a leak not a hack, in that the person who was responsible for getting the information out had legal access to that information.\u2019\u201d<\/em> Murray, a whistleblower and former UK Ambassador, had been personally involved in that, by transferring a thumb-drive from the DNC whistleblower to Julian Assange, and he also said there, \u201cIf you are looking to the source of all this, you have to look to Americans,\u201d<\/em> and not at all to any Russians or other foreigners.<\/span><\/p>\n The comprehensiveness of the deceit by the US regime is beyond what the vast majority of Americans can even imagine to be the case. It is simply beyond the comprehension of most people. And that false \u2018news\u2019-reporting then becomes basic to, and enshrined in,\u00a0false but best-selling \u2018history\u2019-books<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, so as to deepen, yet further, the deception of the public.<\/span><\/p>\n On Sunday, February 24th, the \u201cZero Hedge\u201d independent news-site headlined\u00a0\u201cWaPo Quietly Deletes Branson’s Venezuela Concert From Article After ‘Fake’ Attendance Figures Exposed<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u201d and reported (and documented) that the British billionaire Richard Branson\u2019s free pop-concert on Friday February 22 at the Venezuela-Colombia border in support of Washington\u2019s attempted coup to overthrow Venezuela\u2019s democratically elected President had drawn less than 20,000 fans instead of what had been reported in the US regime\u2019s\u00a0Washington Post<\/em>, which had reported that 200,000 attended, and that as soon as the US regime\u2019s fraud was publicly exposed \u2014 which was done by means of a\u00a0photo of the crowd which had been taken by Dan Cohen of Russia\u2019s RT<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, plus\u00a0careful independent calculations by the \u201cMoon of Alabama\u201d blogger<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>\u2014 the US regime\u2019s \u2018news\u2019paper retroactively removed their \u2018news\u2019-report\u2019s crowd-size-estimate from the online version of their \u2018news\u2019-report. Of course, the \u2018error\u2019 had already been physically printed in that trashy \u2018news\u2019paper, which might (at its discretion) subsequently publish a printed correction, saying that they\u2019d only been trying to fool their subscribers in order to assist propaganda supporting the US regime\u2019s grab for control over Venezuela.<\/span><\/p>\n The problem isn\u2019t \u2018fake news\u2019 from RT or from small online sites (such as all of the major media\u00a0claim\u00a0<\/em>to be the case), but false \u2018news\u2019 from mainstream US (and allied) \u2018news\u2019 (propaganda) media. They\u2019ve all got millions of victims\u2019 blood on their hands, and they\u2019re not even a bit ashamed of any of it \u2014 and of shifting the blame for it to the targeted nations.<\/span><\/p>\n PS:<\/strong>\u00a0Max Blumenthal is an investigative journalist who formerly believed the lies from the (think tanks and other agencies of the) billionaires who finance the Democratic Party. He was the star journalist at one of the Democratic Party\u2019s leading \u2018alt-news\u2019 propaganda-sites, AlterNet, until he lost his employment there after starting to expose the rot that he had previously been fooled into supporting. He increasingly moved away from liberalism to progressivism; and the Democratic National Committee doesn\u2019t want any of that, except as window-dressing \u2014 and Blumenthal decided he could no longer do that. He became unemployed for a while and then established, along with another former AlterNet reporter \u201cThe GrayZone Project,\u201d in order to continue being employed. Blumenthal recently issued a YouTube video in which he interviewed star Democratic Party Presidential aspirant Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other members of Congress\u00a0\u201cIs the US Meddling in Venezuela? Max Blumenthal Asks US Congress Members<\/strong><\/span>.\u201d<\/a>\u00a0As you can see there, all of them are either mildly or very supportive of Trump\u2019s coup-attempt in Venezuela. Unfortunately, Blumenthal didn\u2019t interview Tulsi Gabbard, who might possibly be an exception to the depressing rule that corruption reigns, and who recently announced her candidacy for the US Presidency. Nor did he interview Bernie Sanders, nor Sherrod Brown, nor Elizabeth Warren, all of whom likewise are competing for the progressives\u2019 votes in the upcoming Democratic Party Presidential primaries. As for the other Democratic contenders, they\u2019re competing to become instead the new Hillary Clinton \u2014 the American billionaires\u2019 favorite. Instead, with Trump, we got in the 2016 Presidentials their second choice.<\/span><\/p>\n On February 18th, Blumenthal and a colleague, Alexander Rubinstein, headlined at one of the few sincere and honest US-based international-news sites, \u201cMint Press,\u201d\u00a0\u201cPierre Omidyar\u2019s Funding of Pro-Regime-Change Networks and Partnerships with CIA Cutouts<\/strong><\/span>\u201d<\/a>, and they exposed Omidyar, the owner of a famous \u2018news\u2019 site that\u2019s targeted at naive progressives, \u201cThe Intercept.\u201d Whereas Mint Press is called \u2018fake news\u2019 by America\u2019s billionaires\u2019 \u2018news\u2019-media, The Intercept (which isn\u2019t nearly as honest as Mint Press is) is not. The dictatorship\u2019s aim is to crush the truth, and (like The Intercept does) they let in just enough of truth so as to keep hidden what\u2019s most important to them to keep hidden from the public \u2014 things such as what Blumenthal and Rubinstein are now disclosing.<\/span><\/p>\n Everybody except America\u2019s 585 billionaires should be reading sites such as the ones that publish Blumenthal and Rubinstein, and other honest investigative journalists (which are banned at all of the mainstream sites). Propaganda that poses as \u2018news\u2019 has to be crushed, in order for truth itself\u00a0not\u00a0to be crushed. But can their expos\u00e9 of Omidyar win a top national journalism award without thereby bringing down the entire rotten and corrupt superstructure of lies? And that would also bring down the enormous international crimes this superstructure has supported and continues to support, such as\u00a0Iraq 2003, Libya 2011, Syria\u00a02011-2018, Yemen 2015-now, Ukraine 2014, and Venezuela 2017-now.<\/span><\/p>\n If such news-reports cannot win top journalism prizes, then what hope is there, realistically, that things will ever be able to improve?<\/span><\/p>\n Only by removing the blinders from the public, can the public see the light and the actual truth, about the world in which they are living. That\u2019s what is needed in order for democracy to be able to exist. What now exists is, instead,\u00a0dictatorship<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. That\u2019s the current reality. It includes the European Council, which is the\u00a0unelected government of the EU<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, which\u00a0clearly is a dictatorship<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0(and this is true even if Brexit is wrong), and it also includes every other\u00a0ally of the US regime<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. The EU was created by the US and its allies after WW II. It\u00a0\u201calways was a CIA project<\/strong><\/span>.\u201d<\/a>\u00a0FDR was dead, and maybe whatever there had been of US democracy\u00a0died along with him<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. The UN that exists is not the one that he had intended and so carefully planned. We\u2019ve been living in a charade. It didn\u2019t start in 1981. There is\u00a0this<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, and there also is\u00a0this<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. It\u2019s FDR\u2019s vision turned upside-down and inside-out. That\u2019s the actual world of today. It\u2019s based on lies.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
