which of us can be really sure what's true in the inner workings of the empire but this article asks some good questions and posits some interesting suggestions;

The discussions between Putin and Trump, sometime in early May 2019, have revealed frightening truths about US policy in Venezuela and elsewhere.

If reports are to be believed, there was wide agreement between Putin and Trump on Venezuela and much of what had been said by the US policies “mouth pieces,” John Bolton and Mike Pompeo, had never been approved by President Trump.

Moreover, discussions, we are told, also covered wide areas of nuclear disarmament that would involve not just the US and Russia but China as well, and broader cooperation and economic ties between Russia and the US.

Let’s remember, it was Donald Trump that ordered two missile attacks on Syria for use of chemical weapons. Perhaps the single greatest divergence from sanity by the corporate media has involved these attacks, long proven fake, and the organization known as the White Helmets, defended by the corporate media as heroes but clearly terrorists.

Thus, we enter a “free fall zone” of one initiative being reported that, when examined alongside the popular narrative and statements made from policymakers, all we get are contradictions, insane contradictions.

Let’s take a second to examine how confusing things really are. Trump has only recently vetoed, an act upheld by a razor thin minority (an oddity of US procedure), attempts to end US bombing of Yemen. We may claim Saudi Arabia and Israel are doing it, and for those who don’t know, not only is Israel bombing Yemen, they have lost planes, 2 IAF F16s with pilots, over Yemen back in 2016.

This is really an American war, American planes, American bombs, American fuel, American mission planning, American ships servicing the blockades and America’s supposed policy, driven by broad corruption within the American administration through “lobbying efforts” on behalf of a partnership between select “Israeli interests,” big oil, arms dealers and their organized crime financiers.

Any statement about American policy that fails to make these truths clear will appear to be either insane or fake based on the divergence between corporate media narrative supported by what we choose to call “Deep State operatives,” such as Lindsey Graham, John Bolton, Robert Barr or Mike Pompeo, and real facts.

What we are saying is this. Analysis is impossible as long as outlandish versions of events are continually fed into the “popular narrative” and then rubber stamped by not just the media but clearly psychopathic public officials as well.

Donald Trump called these individuals “the swamp.” Where we are going today may well be the first instance where “swamp draining” might be considered possible.

The other possibility is, as many academics now believe, that President Trump rules nothing and that the real coup happened early on in his administration..........https://journal-neo.org/2019/05/06/will-the-real-donald-trump-please-stand-up/
