one minute audio recording from flight attendant on 'hijacked' plane on 911 finishes by saying, 'its a frame';

all of you america firsters must be going a bit crazy with this development. the empire, headed by the mango mussolini is waiting for the joos and the saudi's to tell him what to do, and this as the empire is speaking about forming a mutual defense treaty with israel to make sure any crimes they commit are joined in by the empire;

rump’s bizarre infatuation with strongmen and dictators was on full display in his response to Saturday’s drone attack on Saudi Arabia’s oil facilities. As our foremost Gulf expert, Kristian Ulrichsen, noted,

Trump actually said that he was waiting on the Saudis to determine the guilty party and to tell him what to do!..........https://www.juancole.com/2019/09/awaits-orders-houthis.html

i have a friend who will love the video at this link. there is a seven minute video at this link that you may find as funny as i do. two jews speak about anti-semitism as if the 'official' point of view is the only way to see it, and in it ignore all of what actually leads to those views;

I must say, here in Europe we have nothing on TV as funny and entertaining as in America.

In my home country of Germany people are regularly sent to prison for saying publicly they do not believe the official Holocaust story, presumably because there is no other way to defend that story than to imprison people who question it. My point is, saying funny things about Jews on national TV is strictly verboten.

Bill Maher often goes out of his way to say he was 'raised Catholic', which may or may not be true, but he certainly looks and acts very Jewish, right down to his obsessive Christ-bashing and potty-mouth humor, so, I think one should assume he probably is. Why does this man try so hard to deny his obvously Jewish heritage?

This is an absolute gem of self-denial, two powerful Jews in Hollywood explaining to their mostly non-Jewish audience that anti-semitism is a 'conspiracy theory', a 'thought-virus', and just pops up for no reason when societies are 'dying', and a bunch of other great insights that explain everything. Thanks Bill, we're relieved you cleared this up.

I think if this is how American Jews are going to lecture others about anti-semitism, then they will just provoke a lot of questions and subsequent googling and red-pilling, and anti-semitism will keep rising.

Judging from the comments and votes of the video, Bill's public, a very liberal and gullible group to begin with, are not buying what he is trying to sell..........https://russia-insider.com/en/funny-watch-bill-maher-and-guest-both-jewish-explain-rising-anti-semitism-has-nothing-do-jewish

i just about always find agreement with pcr, and do in this case except i'm not sure about his point putting israel responsible for the saudi oil attack, which the yemini's take responsibility for. the rest of his points here are spot on in my thinking;

Armageddon on the Horizon?

Paul Craig Roberts

Trump supporters should let Trump hear from them as he is about to commit the United States to a war of Israel’s choosing. A mutual defense treaty between the US and Israel would give Israel the ability to commit the US to a war in Israel’s behalf.

Remember history. It was British prime minister Chamberlain’s guarantee to Poland that started World War II. The idiot British lost control over their own policy and gave it to a crazed and irresponsible Polish military dictatorship.

The attack on the Saudi oil fields that Trump and Israel are blaming on Iran is almost certainly an attack by Israel. The attack is being used to start a war with Iran.

Putin needs to speak up now before the war starts, because it is impossible that Russia will be able to avoid involvement. The chances are substantial that Armageddon is about to unfold while the world sits stupidly.............https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2019/09/15/armageddon-on-the-horizon/

fifty three minute reading of smedley butler's book: war is a racket. i recommend you own and read the book, often;

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EI3lckqaSk0&app=desktop

the title says all that is required for an introduction;

or, as george c scott's character said in dr strangelove: ' i'm not saying we won't get our hair mussed';

Questioning “mutual assured destruction,” Charles Kupperman called nuclear conflict “in large part a physics problem.”

Incoming National Security Advisor, Charles Kupperman, made the claim Nuclear War With USSR Was Winnable.

He made those statements in the 1980s. I do not know his views today, but let's review what he said then.

President Donald Trump’s acting national security adviser, former Reagan administration official Charles Kupperman, made an extraordinary and controversial claim in the early 1980s: nuclear conflict with the USSR was winnable and that “nuclear war is a destructive thing but still in large part a physics problem.”

Kupperman, appointed to his new post on Tuesday after Trump fired his John Bolton from the job, argued it was possible to win a nuclear war “in the classical sense,” and that the notion of total destruction stemming from such a superpower conflict was inaccurate. He said that in a scenario in which 20 million people died in the U.S. as opposed to 150 million, the nation could then emerge as the stronger side and prevail in its objectives.

His argument was that with enough planning and civil defense measures, such as “a certain layer of dirt and some reinforced construction materials,” the effects of a nuclear war could be limited and that U.S. would be able to fairly quickly rebuild itself after an all-out conflict with the then-Soviet Union.

At the time, Kupperman was executive director of President Ronald Reagan’s General Advisory Committee on Arms Control and Disarmament. He made the comments during an interview with Robert Scheer for the journalist’s 1982 book, “With Enough Shovels: Reagan, Bush, and Nuclear War.”

The National Security Council did not immediately respond to questions on whether Kupperman, 68, still holds the same views of nuclear conflict as he did in the early 1980s. Kupperman’s seemingly cavalier attitude toward the potential death of millions of people was criticized at the time both by Democratic politicians and arms control experts.

The article posts excerpts so let's look at a couple of precise statements.

Kupperman Statements

If the objective in a war is to try to destroy as many Soviet civilians and as many American civilians as is feasible, and the casualty levels approached 150 million on each side, then it’s going to be tough to say you have a surviving nation after that. But depending on how the nuclear war is fought, it could mean the difference between 150 casualties and 20 million casualties. I think that is a significant difference, and if the country loses 20 million people, you may have a chance of surviving after that.
I think it is possible to win, in the classical sense. It means that it is clear after the war that one side is stronger than the other side, the weaker side is going to accede to the demands of the stronger side.

Winning in the Classical Sense

We lost 20 million, they lost 150 million.

Let's call that "winning in the "classical sense".

It's precisely how one "wins" trade wars, but on a much larger scale..........https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/nuclear-war-russia-winnable-said-trumps-incoming-national-security-advisor
