Four US warplanes launched nine missiles at the base on Sunday evening, killing three and injuring thirteen. Russia say the attacks from the Obama regime were over fears that Federation forces had uncovered a top secret plot that involved the CIA smuggling ISIS leaders to a “commune/training” compound in the heart of America named “Islamville”.

Germany Set to Cooperate With Assad, Set Up Intel Agency in Damascus
http://www.awdnews.com/top-news/germany-set-to-cooperate-with-assad,-set-up-intel-agency-in-damascus

http://www.awdnews.com/images/1450560420bashar-al-assad_2576564k.jpg

In a dramatic move, Germany is set to become the first western nation and NATO member to break ranks and begin cooperating with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and set up an intelligence agency branch in Damascus....


...Although there has been no official announcement, anonymous sources quoted in the German Bild newspaper, confirmed that the federal government is keen to establish a branch of its Federal Intelligence Service (BND) in Damascus in an effort to counter Daesh, also known as ISIL...
...There has been a long history of intelligence-sharing between Berlin and Damascus, which Germany believes is an important partner in the fight against radical Islamists. Diplomatic relations were broken off in 2012 when, the then Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle, expelled the Syrian ambassador from Germany. The German ambassador to Damascus was withdrawn and the embassy closed for safety reasons.

High Alert
Germany has been put on high terror alert this years, following both the Charlie Hebdo attacks in January and the November 13 Paris attacks, which killed 130 people and injured hundreds more. The latter attack had links with Germany and one man was arrested in Stuttgart for allegedly supplying weapons to the Paris attackers.

The threat from Daesh is now being taken very seriously by Germany, which recently voted in parliament to begin support operations with its coalition partners against Daesh in Syria and Iraq. Police arrested three Islamists believed to have planned an attack in Dortmund, and a fourth man, in Stuttgart, believed to have supplied weapons to the jihadists who carried out the Paris attacks.

Putin: Europe Handed Over Part of Its Sovereignty to US

http://www.awdnews.com/images/1450645246635586464035076487-afp-527752260.jpg

Europe’s problem is its lack of any independent foreign policy, Putin told during an interview to Russian TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov, featured in a documentary aired on Rossiya-1 television channel.

"In fact, Europe has abandoned it and handed over part of its sovereignty, maybe its most important part, to an alliance," he said.


According to the president, it is quite normal for members of a military-political alliance to transfer some of their powers to the supranational authorities.

"But as for Europe, this is not just a supranational body. In fact, Europe gave up part of its powers not to NATO but to NATO’s leading country – the United States," Putin said.

As an example, the president brought up the US intervention in Iraq which was opposed by Germany and France. Then the two countries were told they were not right.

"It turned out that [France’s ex-president Jacques] Chirac, a very educated person, who had very close and trustful ties with the Sunni part of the Middle East, predicted the consequences. Now the result is failed states in those countries and the rise of terrorism. Paris was attacked. Chirac was right. Schroeder [German ex-chancellor] was right too," Putin said.

Seymour Hersh: Pentagon Secretly Passed Intelligence to Assad Government

http://sputniknews.com/middleeast/20151221/1032114120/pentagon-passed-intelligence-assad.html


The Pentagon deliberately subverted American policy toward Syria, sabotaging US efforts to aid Syrian rebels and even sending US intelligence to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, according to journalist Seymour Hersh.

Gee, I wonder what Benjamin Fulford would say?... ': D


The Joint Chiefs also discovered that viable moderate Syrian rebels did not exist and that the opposition consisted nearly uniformly of extremists.

So, in the fall of 2013, the Joint Chiefs decided to start secretly "providing US intelligence to the militaries of other nations, on the understanding that it would be passed on to the Syrian army," Hersh writes. They sent US intelligence to Germany, Russia, and Israel, which sent it to Assad

The goal of their secret alliance with Assad was to subvert Obama's Syria efforts, prop up Assad, and aid him in destroying Daesh and other extremists, according to Hersh.

Germany Breaks With US Over Syrian War, Warns Obama “May Be Insane”

A new Ministry of Defense (MoD) report circulating in the Kremlin states that at a meeting of top Federation and Bundeswehr (Unified Armed Forces of Germany) military officers earlier today in Damascus, Syria, one of Germany’s top intelligence officials stated that this European nation has now broken with American “polices, aims and goals” in regards to the Levant War Zone and further warned that President Barack Obama “may be insane”.

http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/gda2.jpg

According to this report, the German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) officer making this statement about President Obama was in Damascus setting up Germany’s new cooperation office with Syria’s Military Intelligence Directorate (MID), a move ordered by Chancellor Angela Merkel over the objections of the Obama regime in her nations fight against Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/Daesh) terrorists.

In breaking with the US over this war too, this report continues, Germany has removed this week two Patriot missile air defense complexes and 250 of their military personnel from Turkish territory after new reports surfaced proving that Turkey is illegally selling Islamic State oil, is allowing the Islamic State to sell slaves in their country, has initiated a civil war against its own Kurdish population, and, most dangerously, has joined with Saudi Arabia in initiating a plan devised by the Obama regime to spark a massive Middle East oil war.

As to the BND’s questioning of President Obama’s sanity, this report says, was a subject brought up in this Damascus meeting where these Germany officers confirmed to their Federation counterparts that the bombshell report issued by American military-intelligence reporter Seymour Hersh, yesterday, was correct in stating that the US Pentagon had secretly been funneling intelligence to the Syrian government behind President Obama’s and the Central Intelligence Agencies (CIA) back as the American leader refused to acknowledge the reality of this conflict, and its vast potential for starting World War III.

With the Pentagon deliberately deceiving President Obama and the CIA by giving their intelligence to Germany to secretly pass to Syria, this report continues, this BND officer stated that the American leader “may be insane” due to his not even knowing what his own government/military/intelligence services are doing in a war that has such grave and historic implications for the entire world.

And as to how grave this war has become, this report notes, are new reports stating that the Saudi Arabian regime, backed by President Obama, may, in fact, be “falling apart at the seams”—and which new reports today have, also, surfaced showing that the UK government is furiously attempting to keep hidden from its people a secret pact made with Saudi Arabia to protect this evil regime at the cost of what could very well be thousands of British lives.

In the United States meanwhile, this report concludes, Obama regime mainstream propagandists continue to keep hidden from the American people the true facts of this war—even going to the extent where this past week, MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski stunningly claimed that Islamic State terrorists were not to be feared, but that, instead, their nation should fear “white men with guns” who she claimed were “wrecking havoc”, in spite of true facts complied by the highly respected Brookings Institute showing that 77% of gun deaths in American attributed to white men were suicide—as opposed to 83% of gun deaths attributable to black men being homicide murders. link (http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1966.htm)

http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/gda1.png

this report hammers Obama to keep most of the Democrats to stop reading from the beginning, don't let the spin keep you from finding what is important in the report...

the last few Sorcha reports have all started the same way, but looking forward...

According to this report, this secretive new law signed by President Obama last week was contained in a $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill passed by the US Congress that Senator Rand Paul warned about by stating: “It was over a trillion dollars, it was all lumped together, 2,242 pages, nobody read it”.

If this omnibus bill would have been allowed to be read by the American people, or more importantly their US Congress lawmakers, this report continues, they would have shockingly discovered that contained in it was a repeal of the 1980 Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (FIRPTA) that required all foreign persons to pay tax on dispositions of any interests in American real estate. The law specifically provided, too, that its provisions took precedence over any existing tax treaties that provided otherwise.

The reason for the US passing this law in 1980, this report explains, was to protect their citizens from having their property values and taxes skyrocket due to a massive inflow of money from Japan as that Asian nation, at that time, was reported to be buying “everything” they could in the United States—most particularly farm land and through whose purchase of caused the Great American Farm Crisis that was equally as devastating to this nations farmers than the Great Depression.

http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/oes2.jpg

With President Obama having now having overthrown the FIRPTA law, this report further explains, foreign pension funds are now allowed to buy American real estate the same as their US counterparts without facing any financial repercussions—and whom the biggest beneficiaries will be the Sunni-Muslim Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member states that include Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.

With GCC pension funds now containing over $3 trillion, this report warns, these Sunni-Muslim nations are now set to become the new “overlords” of America as they are prepared to begin buying massive numbers of US farms and farmland acreage—which will benefit them by allowing them to transfer American food and crops to their nation, as well as benefit the corrupt government structure of the United States as they reap untold billions of dollars, in not trillions, in property taxes due to inflated farmland values their own citizens will no longer be able to afford to pay, and like happened in the 1980’s. link (http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1965.htm)

you can tell this spin is targeting Trump's followers...


now this report on the other hand, is worth taking a closer look at...

“If all that Americans want is security, they can go to prison. They'll have enough to eat, a bed and a roof over their heads. But if an American wants to preserve his dignity and his equality as a human being, he must not bow his neck to any dictatorial government.”

Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890-1969) 34th President of the United States, Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe during World War II

Barely 5 years removed from the horrors of the greatest war (World War II) our planet had ever experienced, on 8 December 1949, the last true General-Statesman of the United States, Dwight D. Eisenhower, spoke before a gathering of his citizens in Galveston, Texas, and said these words: “If all that Americans want is security, they can go to prison. They'll have enough to eat, a bed and a roof over their heads. But if an American wants to preserve his dignity and his equality as a human being, he must not bow his neck to any dictatorial government.”

Three years later, in 1952, Eisenhower became President of the United States and led his nation to what has become known as one of the greatest, and peaceful, economic expansions in world history—which not only benefited his own nation, but raised from the ruins a war devastated Europe and Asia.

The forces Eisenhower battled against to achieve this “modern miracle” in international and domestic affairs, though, he failed to completely defeat, thus leading to his warning to the American people on his last day in office, 1961, in what is now famously known as the “Military-Industrial Complex Speech”:

“Until the latest of our world conflicts, the United States had no armaments industry. American makers of plowshares could, with time and as required, make swords as well. But now we can no longer risk emergency improvisation of national defense; we have been compelled to create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions.

Added to this, three and a half million men and women are directly engaged in the defense establishment. We annually spend on military security more than the net income of all United States corporations.

This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual -- is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development.

Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.

We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.”

Though many of you may, no doubt, be familiar with this warning given by Eisenhower, his most critical warning about the future was revealed later in this speech:

“Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been overshadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields. In the same fashion, the free university, historically the fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research.

Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity. For every old blackboard there are now hundreds of new electronic computers.

The prospect of domination of the nation's scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present...and is gravely to be regarded.”

Why Eisenhower gave this “grave” warning to the American people was based upon the knowledge he gained in the aftermath of World War II that showed to him the dangers caused to the whole world by the combination of Nazi Germany’s melding of “government-science-education-corporations” into a seamless single entity—and which without the computing power provided to this regime by IBM would not have been possible.

And so powerful had computers become in Eisenhower’s time during his presidency, that by the mid-1960’s, IBM’s 1400 series computers (which would fill a modern day living room) comprised over half the computers used in the entire world…but which today the average cell phone has over 1,000 times more computing power the 1400 series ever did.

Also to note, a contemporary of Eisenhower noting these dangers too was the English journalist/novelist George Orwell—who, because of his wife’s, Eileen, service during World War II in the British governments Censorship Department of the Ministry of Information, became so alarmed at what the future held for humanity, in 1949, he wrote what is, perhaps, the greatest dystopian novel ever written, 1984.

In Orwell’s extrapolation of current events into the future he surmised in his book, 1984, what the future of governments would become:

“Now I will tell you the answer to my question. It is this. The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power.

What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites.

The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal.

We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.

The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me.”

And as to what life would like for the peoples living in world like this Orwell simple stated: “If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—for ever.”

As to full horrors both Eisenhower and Orwell warned about, all of us today can see for ourselves as it unfolds around us—and nowhere on Earth has this become more scary than in China, where the melding of “government-science-education-corporations” into a seamless single entity has become so complete, that in just 5 short years, 2020, here is what their nation will become:

https://youtu.be/lHcTKWiZ8sI

Quickly following China into this dystopian world is the United States—where just this past week, the US Congress slipped into a massive spending bill a new law called the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act, or CISA, that for the first time in that nation’s history allows federal agencies – including the NSA – to share cybersecurity, and really any information, with private corporations—and which once this massive database is complete, the total enslavement of America will be complete.

And to Orwell’s warning of how this will be accomplished (“He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.”) the New York Times (America’s paper of record) put on full display this week when they erased from history this phrase devastating Obama admission from one of their main articles: “In his meeting with the columnists, Mr. Obama indicated that he did not see enough cable television to fully appreciate the anxiety after the attacks in Paris and San Bernardino, and made clear that he plans to step up his public arguments. Republicans were telling Americans that he is not doing anything when he is doing a lot, he said.”

http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/dns1.jpg

At the exact same time that the New York Times was self-censoring itself to protect its elite leader, it also failed, as well as the rest of the “mainstream” American media, to keep their readers from knowing of some of the most critical world developments now occurring—that include:

Obama ordering all US warplanes out of Syrian skies

The Pentagon ordering the immediate removal from Turkey of the F-15 fighter jets that the US had just stationed there and which posed a threat to Russia.

US Secretary of State John Kerry announcing that the US would no longer be seeking regime change in Syria—which just 4 weeks ago President Obama vowed he would never allow happen.

US Vice President Joseph Biden ordering Turkey to immediately remove its invading troops from Iraq—which just 6 days ago the US State Department refused to even acknowledge happened.

President Obama ordering Turkey to remove its troops from Iraq too.

For the first time in the United Nations 70-year history, a summit of global finance ministers led by Russia and the US met in the Security Council and passed a resolution to attack the finances, and financial backers of the Islamic State.

"Anonymous 'declares war' on Turkey, claims responsibility for recent massive cyberattacks"

Leaderless 'hacktivist' group Anonymous has taken responsibility for a recent major cyberattack on Turkey, and have claimed they will continue waging war on the country's internet services due to their belief that the Turkish government is helping Isis.

A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack on Turkey's internet between 14 and 21 December took around 400,000 websites offline, according to Turkish media, after they were overloaded with huge amounts of traffic.

The attack, which was reportedly the biggest in Turkey's history, was only stopped when the Turkish cybersecurity agency stopped all foreign internet traffic from accessing Turkish websites, essentially closing the country's digital borders to the outside world.

In a video apparently produced by Anonymous-linked hackers, a computer-generated voice said: "As many of you have heard, Turkey is supporting Daesh [Isis] by buying oil from them and hospitalising their fighters."

"We won't accept that [President Recep Tayyip] Erdogan, the leader of Turkey, will help Isis any longer. The news media has already stated that Turkey's internet has been the victim of massive DDoS attacks."

"Dear Government of Turkey, if you don't stop supporting Isis, we will continue attacking your internet, your root DNS [the foundation of Turkey's internet], your banks and take your government sites down." link (http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/anonymous-declares-war-on-turkey-opsis-russia-cyberattack-erdogan-a6784026.html)

South Ossetia’s president said the small country wants to hold a referendum of “special form” to join Russia as one of its regions. The move is to help unite the once separated Ossetian people and safeguard it from various threats for decades to come.
President of South Ossetia, Leonid Tibilov, said in his address to the republic’s parliament on Friday that a roadmap for the referendum would be worked out within a year.

“We are worried by the worsening situation in the world, events in Ukraine, Syria and the entire Middle East as well as NATO’s move towards Russia’s borders, and also by militarist anti-Russian and anti-Ossetian rhetoric of our southern neighbors,” Tibilov was quoted as saying by TASS.

The leader also said it is South Ossetia's "ancient dream" to reunite with Russia and the separated Ossetian people. Tibilov referred to North Ossetia, which is part of the Russian Federation.

“As we understand that this issue is complicated and delicate, and do not want to make troubles in an international arena for our strategic partner, I believe this referendum has to be held in a special form,” he added.

War is a racket pamphlet


War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.

I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.

I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.

There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.

It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.

I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.

I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.

During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.

Major General Smedley D. Butler, USMC
http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Smedley_Butler

NOTE: What the general calls "Capitalism" is actually USURY (interest).
True capitalism is simply the private ownership of the means of production - land, labor, tools. Absolute ownership is an endowed right protected by government.
But usury (banking, insurance and corporations) is a government privilege subject to taxation and regulation, ergo, it is not a "right." (And usury has been condemned as an abomination for "only" 3500 years)

The general, like most Americans, is a victim of the world's greatest propaganda ministry, and is prone to make such mistakes.

I'll insert a gentle reminder that the globalists are the ones that use the amerikan military to their own ends.

Nation states are nonexistent to them ...

Carry on :)

I don't differentiate anymore... whether it's America, Canada or whoever... if the people can't face down the government... they have lost control... this is the situation we all find ourselves in today... the corporation with the help of lawyers has out maneuvered we the people... and it's called fascism corporate rule doing a run around of we the people... more money and resources to them less to us... ever moving one step closer and closer to the matrix... where we are nothing but a statistic, a commodity to power the "machine" of corporatism... that's the real battle today facing each individual... do we leave the rule of the government that serves the public that we are the creditors of... to a bunch of self serving lawyers who have turned the tables on us or do we take back our control?... and what is it going to take... (mass protests have been marginalized these days because they're disconnected from any legal process... and so on... we are being out maneuvered by great stealth and creeping deception...
