Why are the Metropolitan Police not feeling Tory Lord Sebastian Coe’s collar and trawling his hard drives? I blogged recently about his involvement in awarding the World Athletics Championships without a vote to the hometown of his long term paymasters and sponsors, Nike. Plus the £12 million his promotions company made from VIP hospitality packages for the Olympics, the VIP tickets for which were allocated by the Organising Committee of which he was the £600,000 pa chairman.
Now we have this, from the person Coe works closest with in the IAAF and who he has now promoted to head the President’s office since Coe assumed that title:
« Dear Papa,
Following our discussion earlier I have already had some thoughts and believe that we need to do the following, in the strict confidence and control within a small circle of senior IAAF staff only. This must be very secret.
(…)4. Finally, as soon as possible, and ‘unofficially’ PR campaign to ensure that we avoid international media scandals related to the Moscow Championships especially in the British press, where the worst of the articles is coming from. This will require specialist PR skills (working only with me directly) from London, but I believe that if we consider using CSM we can also benefit from Seb’s political influence in the UK. It is in his personal interest to ensure that the Moscow World Champs is a success and that people do not think that the media of his own country are trying to destroy it. We can work extremely hard in stopping any planed ‘attack’ on Russia from the British press in the coming weeks.
5. Finally, I need to be able to sit down with the Anti-doping department and understand exactly what Russian ‘skeleton’ we have still in the cupboard regarding doping. I think that the time to have unveiled the various athletes was a long time ago and that now we need to be smart. These athletes, of course, should NOT be part of any Russian team for these World Championships and Valentin should be pressurised to make sure this is the case. If the guilty ones are not competing then we might as well wait until the event is over to announce them. Or we announce one or two BUT AT THE SAME TIME as athletes from other countries. Also we can prepare a special dossier on IAAF testing which will show that one of the reasons why these Russian athletes come up positive is that they get tested a lot !!! In the same way, we can make the point that the WADA laboratory is the responsibility of WADA not IAAF and that if WADA decides there really is a problem, we have a plan B to do the tests in Lausanne instead (Gabriel confirmed this to me yesterday).
Papa, as soon as I have an idea of the price of this unofficial PR campaign I will let you know, but I will do everything in my power to protect the IAAF and the President.
All the best Nick »
So what does the Establishment now wish us to believe?
a) As long-term Vice President of the IAAF, Coe had no idea the organisation was massively corrupt and the President was taking huge bribes to cover-up doping scandals.
b) Coe had no idea his close associate and now head of his office Nick Davies was writing to the son of the President proposing that Coe’s company and Coe’s “political influence” be used to keep doping scandals out of the British media.
c) Coe’s meeting, while Vice President of the IAAF, with executives of his sponsor Nike, to discuss awarding the World Athletics Championships to Eugene, had no bearing at all on the decision of the President of IAAF to award the games to Eugene without a vote.
All that is even less convincing than Sepp Blatter’s declarations of innocence. Yet there is an utter difference in the British media’s treatment of Blatter and of “Lord” Coe.
I wonder why?
While I was in Berlin, the languages I studied were Russian and Biblical Hebrew. Of course, my German also greatly improved just from being in Berlin.

Wouldn’t say that Gen Flynn’s remarks were scripted, at least not in the negative sense you imply, John.
What Flynn was doing was outing US support for ISIS.
It’s simply the case that there are those in the US who do not support the Banker’s war on Russia.
They include Gens Dempsey and Flynn, who were actively undermining Obama’s supposed policy on Syria.
Here’s Gen Flynn, former chief of the Defense Intelligence Agency, at the recent RT dinner with Putin.
They were at the same table:
http://russia-insider.com/en/heres-who-sat-putins-table-rt-dinner-photo/ri11855
Loads of bitching about that in the US, from the usual suspects.
No. There’s definitely a shift in policy, at quite a high level, and Trump and whoever’s backing him are part of it.
“Habbu-Clown iro JSD, “J’admire!”
Habbu=Clown TO JSD; “Are you being a cunt again, John?””
Yup.
The reason for Habby’s inconsistency is because he’s a charlatan, who believes in nothing other than what suits his interests in any given moment.
His occasional support for some here is simply to create division with others.
It’s amusing to watch some of them take delight in habby praise.
I’m sure JSD is made of much sterner principle.
This is now getting serious. In my absence I am being discussed and now I am being slandered. Any more of it and I will seek the details of Habbabkuk from Craig and take legal action.
In the meantime could the moderator please remove ALL the lies here referring to me and Stormfront.

Jemand mentions Stormfront.
Wonder what he knows about the falsification some time back when a comment was put on that website (which I have never looked at or had dealings with) in my name, presumably in an attempt to smear me?
Note the description of racist is not contested.

I cannot remember when the original smear was made.
Pull the other one, it’s got bells on ! It’s New Year’s Day, not April Fool’s Day ! 😀
I provided details of what I googled at the time(it wasn’t just Mary on its own – seek and you will find – but of course that would ruin your smear) the post is what appeared. I suspect others tried the same and came up with the same result – because I am pretty sure that if they didn’t they would have told everyone so.
I don’t frequent racist websites – your activity at the time of the Charlie Hebdo attacks categorically showed that you do.

For what its worth I don’t think Mary made the post on Stormfront – my suspicions lie elsewhere – but that is all they will remain unless I have more evidence.
Taken from the Congressional Reserch Service, on US aid to Israel.
Israel is the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign assistance since World War II. To date,
the United States has provided Israel $124.3 billion (current, or non inflation adjusted,dollars)in
bilateral assistance.
Almost all U.S. bilateral aid to Israel is in the form of military assistance,
although in the past Israel also received significant economic assistance.
Strong congressional
support for Israel has resulted in Israel receiving benefits not available to any other countries; for example, Israel can use some U.S. military assistance both for research and development in the United States and for military purchases from Israeli manufacturers.
In addition, U.S. assistance
earmarked for Israel is generally delivered in the first 30 days of the fiscal year, while most other
recipients normally receive aid in installments, and Israel (as is also the case with Egypt) is
permitted to use cash flow financing for its U.S. arms purchases.
In addition to receiving U.S.
State Department-administered foreign assistance, Israel also receives funds from annual defense
appropriations bills for rocket and missile defense programs. Israel pursues some of those
programs jointly with the United States.
In 2007, the Bush Administration and the Israeli government agreed to a 10-year, $30 billion
military aid package for the period from FY2009 to FY2018.
During his March 2013 visit to
Israel, President Obama pledged that the United States would continue to provide Israel with
multi-year commitments of military aid subject to the approval of Congress.
All too true, Habby and good use of the word subtle.
Another thing I admire about John Spencer is he is very much his own man.
Btw, John I hope your health is back on par and all the best in 2016 on that front.
In my humble opinion, it is erroneous to use the word “genocide” in a situation where the “victims” of a supposed “genocide” reproduce at a faster rate than those allegedly carrying out the “genocide”. In a “genocide” one would expect the target race or people to diminish rather than increase in number.

I should add a Happy New Year to all supporters of democratic values and human rights and those who oppose terrorists and totalitarians. As for the rest of you lets all hope 2016 is one of the many where your ideas take another inevitable step backwards.

Statement of fact, dear boy. Genocide reduces numbers, whereas the number of Israeli citizens of Palestinian origin is increasing every year.
All your silly huffing and puffing won’t change that fact.
“As for the rest of you lets all hope 2016 is one of the many where your ideas take another inevitable step backwards.”
Well.
2015 was the year when the ideas of those who supported war on Russia took an inevitable step backwards.
Yes.
Let’s hope 2016 is similarly productive.
There lies hope for all humanity.

Yes, I was mistaken in my original assessment of the man.
But, as you know, only fools never change their minds in the face of facts.
There are a lot of vocal fools on here.
Herbie, you might be right. It was that surprise at the beginning where did you get that (FOI) document from? I thought scripted. Also al Jazeera is linked to the Qatar-Saudi sheikdoms which fund it. Call me suspicious of all news outlets – particularly al-Jazeera. I don’t know whether General Flynn actually warned the ‘administration’ of problems of arming the al Nusra ‘rebels’ three years ago. But they took no notice if he did.
This has all come about because of Russia’s legal attacks on ISIS/DAESH which is bringing it to its knees and the US realises that Bashar Assad cannot be overthrown using these silly methods. Also there are reports of the US rescuing (airlifting) IS fighters from beseiged towns. Hard to know who’d telling the truth.
who’d = who’s

I don’t think anyone sensible is calling for a war on Russia – but that doesn’t mean that craven obeisance to Putin and his fellow oligarchs is necessary either.

Its the propaganda ones you have problems with. Good to see your support for Putin’s and Assad’s bombing.
The test above goes to show that Habba’s *s are just a wind-up, as indeed is the whole made-up story about Mary.
It can be revealed that the Chancer of the Exchequer Gideon Osborne has put the kybosh on the (FCA) Financial Conduct Authority.
The FCA were planning an indepth report on banking conduct in Britain. The report would’ve highlighted the likes of Libor, and other neferious activities of the British banking institute.
HabbaJanner doesn’t do wind ups.
His job is to divert from the slow genocide.
