Dutch journalist Joost Niemoller, the author of ‘MH-17: The Cover-up Deal’ said the investigation has not been objective and he sees many problems with the way it was carried out.
“My main criticism is that the investigation was organized by the Dutch in very close collaboration with the Ukrainian government. When you do objective research, you would say that it is possible the Ukrainians did it. And now that is not possible anymore because the Ukrainians are researching themselves,” he told RT.
“What you see here is that the main evidence presented is the tapes with all those conversations …And when I asked what the source of these tapes is, they answered that it is Ukrainian Secret Service. And when I asked are there other sources, they said “no”. I don’t believe that you could take it seriously,” said Niemoller.
Robert Parry finds more problems with the latest report;

This gives a virtual presentation of the case from the JIT.

You would think that a case on such spurious evidence could never stand up in law. But then you would look at the ongoing case of Julian Assange, and the almost forgotten Lockerbie miscarriage, and know that while the petro-dollar is God, all of its worshippers will fall flat on their faces to uphold the lies.
A reminder of another time when the worry was terrorists from the Middle East coming to Europe to carry-out attacks;
https://www.yahoo.com/news/uk-opens-secret-files-jewish-terrorists-1940s-230239665.html
Well, Macks, that may well have been a worry – but the real question is, surely: were there actually any Jewish terrorist attacks in Europe?
The answer might well be : no.
Conclusion: keep your Jew-hating to yourself.
Munich Olympics for example, Macks?
Ignoring your vile trademark troll anti-Semitic smearing, it’s fitting that you mention the Munich Olympics Massacre; the Israeli response, which was based solely on blind vengeance, was a twenty years long terrorism spree called “Operation Wrath of God”, which including sending out mail bombs & the killing of innocent people unrelated to Munich Massacre, and yes some were carried out in Europe;
Actually here’s a handy list of some Israeli terrorism, the extrajudicial executions of Arab and Palestinian diplomats, scientists and journalists such as the PLO representatives, (note how many took place in Europe);
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Israeli_assassinations
Sorry to rain on your party, Macks, but you are diverting again. Not surprising, of course, when your post has been shown to be dross.
Your original post and link referred to British intelligence anxiety about possible Jewish terrorist attacks in Europe during the Palestine Mandate era.
I challenged you to give examples.
Of course you could not supply any examples of such Jewish terrorist attacks in Europe.
So it is only to be expected that you should seek to divert by referring to Mossad operations after the Munich massacre in 1972 (a mere 24 years after the end of Mandate Palestine).
You re really not very good, are you.
Very good in fact. All the European acts of assassination and destabilisation (often by proxy) are unlikely to be broadcast because Israel seeks its United States of the Middle East based on the failing US model. Mordechai Vanunu was abducted by MOSSAD for truthfully reporting Israel’s nuclear capability.
There are good Israeli people who do not share this government vision. But the people of Palestine, Lebanon and other countries have felt the awful swift and terrible sword from the vengeance that should be God’s alone. Israel has seen fit to make itself party to this vengeance. It is no surprise to me that the Islamic angel of death is called Asrael.
But that is just my opinion.
Habba-Clown; “Sorry to rain on your party, Macks, but you are diverting again. Not surprising, of course, when your post has been shown to be dross.”
Keep taking whatever you take, your delusional state of mind is a wonder to behold !
Habba-Clown; “Your original post and link referred to British intelligence anxiety about possible Jewish terrorist attacks in Europe during the Palestine Mandate era.”
Correct !!!
Habba-Clown; “I challenged you to give examples.”
The article itself gave examples as to why there was such anxiety.
Habba-Clown; “Of course you could not supply any examples of such Jewish terrorist attacks in Europe.”
Why should I respond to claims that others imagine I’ve made ?!!
Habba-Clown; “So it is only to be expected that you should seek to divert by referring to Mossad operations after the Munich massacre in 1972 (a mere 24 years after the end of Mandate Palestine).!
LOL!!! Remember this ?;
“Munich Olympics for example, Macks?”
So responding to a topic that you yourself introduced is “diverting” in your Clown mind ! 😀
Habba-Clown; “You re really not very good, are you.”
Wake-up Clown, stop dreaming ! 😀 It’s very obvious that you are so desperately frustrated that you have never been able to avoid coming off second best with me, even when you resort to blatant lying & all your other dishonest toll tactics, that it must really be eating you up inside; but keep trying troll, one day you might get lucky, but until then keep the laughs coming ! 😀

[ Israel ] “seeks its United States of the Middle East based on the failing US model”
_______________
Don’t be so daft – Israel is not seeking a “United States of the ME”. As usual, you are seeking to demonise Israel by coming up with vicious nonsense.
By the way, why do you say the “failing” US model? Is there a War of Succession being planned that you know about?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“… vengeance that should be God’s alone.”
_____________________
I thought you weren’t religious?
But anyway: Israel was fully justified i hunting down the Munich terrorists and exterminating them (and yes, I know they got the wrong man in one case). Let’s face it, there wasn’t much chance of their countries of origin extraditing them to Germany, was there 🙂
++++++++++++++++++
Beta minus – must try harder.
Cue: “the Munich Olympics were a false flag”. Go on – I dare you 🙂
LOL ! Are you really stupid enough to think you are dealing with people as stupid as yourself ?! 😀
Much stupider, Macks. 🙂
US Coalition knew they were bombing the Syrian Army in Deir Ezzor
By Leith Fadel –
27/09/2016
DEIR EZZOR, SYRIA (10:10 A.M.) – A senior officer from the Syrian Arab Army’s 123 Regiment told Al-Masdar on Tuesday morning that his unit was among the government forces targeted by the U.S. Coalition in Deir Ezzor earlier this month.
The senior officer, who asked Al-Masdar to keep his name anonymous, stated that prior to the airstrikes, the U.S. Coalition had flown several reconnaissance drones above their positions at Jabal Thardeh.
When asked how he knew they were American drones, the senior officer answered that their Russian military advisors had corresponded with the U.S. Coalition prior to the commencement of the reconnaissance mission. At the time these reconnaissance flights were taking place, the Islamic State fighters were under attack by the Syrian Arab Army’s 137th Brigade at Tal Sannouf.
On the day of the Islamic State offensive at Jabal Thardeh, the Syrian Armed Forces were in full control of this strategic mountaintop and the nearby hilltop of Tal Kroum.
The senior officer lost a dozen soldiers from his unit during the Coalition airstrikes over Jabal Thardeh; furthermore, these fallen soldiers were not at the front-lines.
Of the 106 soldiers killed at Jabal Thardeh by the U.S. Coalition, more than half of them died at points 1 and 2, which are located right next to the Deir Ezzor Military Airport.
Accidents often happen in battle; however, the majority of the airstrikes were not conducted near the front-lines.
The U.S. Coalition’s airstrikes took out the Syrian Arab Army’s last-line of defense at the Deir Ezzor Military Airport, forcing many of the soldiers fighting ISIS at the outskirts of Jabal Thardeh to withdraw to points 1 and 2. Nearly one week after the U.S. Coalition’s airstrikes, the Syrian Arab Army was forced to completely withdraw from Jabal Thardeh, leaving ISIS at the western gates of the Deir Ezzor Military Airport.
There are idiots about on this thread. Those sort of shirts are not for ironing.
Obsessives rather than idiots, fwl – some of them have a certain kind of low intelligence.
Habby, I wouldn’t rush to exclude ‘fwl’ from the category of fools. At the very least, he is not very discerning as his comment shows, when it comes to dress sense. Either that or he has a strange sense of humour. You could find a better shirt than that in a charity shop for a few quid.
Einstein claimed he lived his whole Life on 3 simple basic principles: Truth, Goodness & Beauty. Plus you have heard many times my oft-repeated refrain: There is a time and place for everything. And that was certainly not the occasion to wear that crumpled shirt. I wouldn’t have held it against Craig if he wore it behind his Whistleblower’s bar. I do get a little suspicious of people’s true sensitivity, judgment and sensibilities when they don’t dress for the occasion. Even JC was in a crisp white sea-island cotton shirt with a new red tie today. Hopefully he’ll keep up the standard in Parliament.
@ fwl
Sacks don’t need ironing either, but one doesn’t wear them at official functions.
At least Hillary isn’t going to the Peres funeral as she knows that she has lost the jewish vote to Trump because of the Iran nuclear deal
Just another example of Israel exploiting the victim game which started with shooting up the Middle East and the USS Liberty during the Six Day War, and was not stopped by Obama’s 30 billion aid gift.
‘shooting up the USS Liberty – and torpedoing it, and napalming it, and all in cahoots with LBJ.
LBJ came within a whisker of nuking Egypt – the only things that stopped him was the Liberty got out an SOS, and the ship, miraculously, didn’t sink. Nuke-armed planes were three minutes from their targets (‘Operation Cyanide’, Peter hounam).
For anyone interested, complete and utter propaganda bullshit from MSNBC’s Morning Joe programme this morning…

How many of you have tried to arrest him???
I am not impressed.

Life is long Tony and it’s getting longer!
That may allow more time for rogues to meet justice within this life itself, rather than in another. Take a closer look at his haunted eyes and all the lines on his face:

He’s only 63 years old you know, he looks a heck of a lot older, don’t you think?
Just think that all the survivors of the people killed in the 9/11 attacks, especially the 125 or so in the Pentagon, can now sue the Saudis for what the leadership of the USA, headed by GW, SoD Rumsfeld, Vice President Dick Cheney, etc. ad nauseam. permitted.
It’s going to be payback big time now, and all the culprits in Congress will get easily re-elected.
The country has now become an insult to shit holes.!
@Trowbridge, did you see my request here;
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2016/09/forget-blairite-propaganda-sierra-leone-not-blairs-good-war/comment-page-2/#comment-626595
No, I didn’t.
A Turkish intelligence officer at NATO supplied Milosevic about its bombing campaign through the Chinese Embassy, resulting in a three-day one turning into a three-month one before the President withdrew from Kosovo.
When Bubba learned of Ecevic’s betrayal, he hit the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade with a raid, and Izmit with an earthquake which led to the collapse of his government, and the arrival of Erdogan’s moderate Muslim one.
When Erdogan proved too independent in dealing with Israel, he was hit with two earthquakes around Lake Van to get hum more willing to compromise with the Kurds.
Thanks to the plot to overthrow him, though, he has gone away on his independent ways again.
Earthquakes to order – is there no end to the conspiracy!
Forgive him, RD. He hasn’t done Plate Tectonics 101.
@Trowbridge, thanks for the reply; any idea why a Turk /(or Turkey) would help a traditional “enemy”, especially as the Serbians were at the time engaged in fighting fellow Muslims ?
“Bubba” ??
Well, an individual Turk in the know might not have liked the idea of NATO bombing the shit out of Serbia. It could do it to Turkey too.
Then the Ecevic government, another regime caught between the pressures of the West and Russia, might not have liked the campaign either.
Anyway, it was betrayed, and Bill Clinton aka Bubba went berserk over it, upgrading SDI, which our leading trolls have apparently never heard of, back to global operations and research from tactical ones, making the use of space weapons an integral component of US bipartisan, covert warfare.
It’s midnight French time; 11pm British time. These are the current headlines on the Guardian:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/sep/28/senate-obama-veto-september-11-bill-saudi-arabia
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/sep/28/spanish-socialist-leader-faces-revolt-over-refusal-to-end-political-deadlock
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/sep/28/flight-mh17-shot-down-by-missile-brought-in-from-russia-ukraine-malaysia-airlines
Beam me up, Scotty…
The legislation amends a 1976 law that granted other countries immunity from US lawsuits. With the veto overturned, foreign countries could be sued in federal court if they are found to have played any role in terror attacks that killed Americans within the US.
Obama vetoed the legislation because he feared that foreign countries could then take similar actions against Americans overseas, such as members of the military.
There’s rather a lot of countries that might sue!
http://uk.businessinsider.com/josh-earnest-embarassing-senate-override-2016-9
. . .Pass the pop-corn,
I challenge you to give up reading The Guardian for a week and use the time to read some good novels; that way you’ll be reading a better class of fiction than you otherwise would.
There’s going to be a military coup in the USA, because of the total nonsense that’s been happening in Syria and other places.
This nonsense has put all life on Earth at risk, because of the complete loons who are now in power in Washington and London.
Anyone in the military, the police, etc, will know where their loyalties are.
I can only ask you to think about things and join us.
I suppose its one way of getting bookings for the gite – are you offering a discount for potential coup plotters and a nice bottle of wine in the welcome pack?
He has probably drunk all the wine in the welcome packs himself!
Seriously, though, I am rather astonished that with business as bad as he claims he has still not responded to my request to provide information on his gite; as readers might recall, I was contemplating a short stay there for rest and relaxation. I had even bought earplugs in anticipation.
PARIS The British government and France’s EDF will officially sign a contract to build Britain’s first new nuclear power plant in a generation on Thursday, after months of wrangling over the involvement of EDF’s Chinese partner, sources said.
Shitheads, they still have no plan on where to dump the nuclear waste.
I would have thought, as Theresa May has said “BREXIT MEANS BREXIT”
that if we have voted to disentangle ourselves from the E.U. and FRANCE
that this deal should be killed off, otherwise we will be tied to France for the next eighty years.
Betrayal.
If we are so keen on electricity produced and controlled by France,
why don’t they build the monster in France and pipe us the electric?
But if we have voted to leave the E.U. we should be showing France the door, now FUCK OFF OUT OF IT.
Why am I not surprized

Canadians behind some of the exploitation of African minerals
“Aiding” Canada’s Mining Companies
by Yves Engler / September 28th, 2016
Significant sums in Canadian “aid” are spent promoting international mining initiatives.
In a press release last week Ontario-based Carube Copper said it acquired over “500 square kilometres of the most prospective ground in Jamaica based on historic showings, the work completed and reported in 1993 by the Canadian International Development Agency (‘CIDA’).”
Canadian aid has facilitated similar work elsewhere. Researching Canada in Africa: 300 years of aid and exploitation I discovered examples of Ottawa funding the collection of geological data in Tanzania, Angola, Cameroon, Niger, Uganda, Kenya and elsewhere. Long time West Africa-based freelance journalist, Joan Baxter, describes a chance encounter with Canadian geologists in her 2008 book Dust From Our Eyes: an Unblinkered Look at Africa. “Another CIDA employee I met one evening in Bamako [Mali] told me his work with CIDA had been a long-term project to map the mineral resources of Zaire, now the Democratic Republic of Congo. When we spoke, he was on a two-year sabbatical from CIDA, working with Canadian mining companies that had taken out concessions in that country.”

Another SNP MP is being investigated by the police for financial irregularities.
http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/a-8936562
Frederick they are an utter disgrace, what has Ms. Nicola Sturgeon got to say for herself?
“The investigation is focused on Law’s Spirit of Independence referendum campaign, where he toured Scotland in a refurbished Green Goddess fire engine in the run-up to the 2014 vote.
Another of the SNP’s huge new intake of MPs, Natalie McGarry, was charged with embezzlement less than 24 hours before Law was questioned.
And Edinburgh Western MP Michelle Thomson is still suspended from the party as police investigate property deals carried out for her by a solicitor struck off for misconduct.”
off course MN and Fred can do it all better for Scotland, numerous posts say so, it must be right then. leave the sheep farming and blog bombing here, go on then you two twins, go and stand for elections, no more time for short-while here, be sure to wear your Kilt MN, always works.
For once put your money were your mouth is.
Do you have some sort of a problem with people being informed of the latest news regarding Scottish politics?
Whenever Ms. Nicola Sturgeon utlilizes the word Westminster,
her face twists like she is gargling acid, yet she often has the phrase Westminster politics,
which such disdain, it is so corrupt. She should get her own house in order, as a BIG priority.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-37495811
Michael.
I think you’ll find the Tory party per se, are under investigation, over alleged election fraud, if found guilty the consequences would be far reaching.
Corbyn may yet get a shot at becoming PM, and sooner than he thinks.
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/tory-mps-attempt-to-block-police-investigation-into-electoral-fraud-allegations-fails-a7059891.html
Yes, we know, you posted about it at the time.
Why do you drag up old news about the Conservatives to reply to new news about a Nationalist as if it somehow makes what the SNP MPs do all right? You seem to be under the mistaken impression that I’m a Conservative and that this is some sort of competition, like football, with teams and point scoring.
“Ruth Davidson has been accused of sending Scottish tax payer’s money down to London to pay for Tory campaigning.”
“Edinburgh North and Leith MP Deirdre Brock said details released in the latest batch of MSPs’ expenses showed payments had been made by the Conservative Support Group in Holyrood to the Tory Policy Research Unit (PRU).”
http://www.thenational.scot/politics/tory-leader-ruth-davidson-sends-scots-money-to-westminster.22980
Still no apology from Ruth, over xenophobic slur.
One in twenty Scottish SNP m.p.’s now under investigation by the police.
Or to put it another way five percent of Scottish SNP M.P.’s now being investigated by the police for fraud.
Yes, yet, as has been pointed out by RoS, the headlines in the paper they claim isn’t biassed is about some trivial Nationalist whinging.
The “ha’penny liar” AKA the Record has printed a retraction re the number of SNP MP’s under police investigation. Maybe you two should do the sensible thing and follow suit. Very serious false allegations you are leaving posted here.
Catalonia, to hold indy ref, in 2017, with or without Madrid’s approval, I forsee Catalonia using (UDI).
If its good enough for the United States, , then UDI, is certainly good enough for Catalonia.
http://www.thenational.scot/news/catalan-president-says-vote-on-independence-will-happen-in-september-2017-with-or-without-madrids-approval.22979
Could anyone inform us,
do any political parties in the United Kingdom currently have more than five percent of their M.P.’s under police investigation for fraud?
Someone just posted on twitter that Scotland now has more SNP MPs being investigated by the police than they have pandas.
Meanwhile the irrelevant party (LibDems) which has a proven track record of self-confessed liars, now sees another investigation by the police into election expenses, of a MSP.
http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/14749831.Police_investigate_LibDem_MSP_over_election_expenses/
Well, certainly not the SNP, according to a statement from Police Scotland. Are you going to print a retraction, like the Record and the Herald have wisely done?
It looks like the national child sex abuse inquiry, which represents hundreds of victims, has suffered another setback.
Ben Emmerson QC, has been suspended over allegations, linked to the direction he was taking the investigation in, and over his leadership.
The inquiry has been plagued by setbacks, and is now onto its fourth chairperson. It is also alleged that Mr Emmerson couldn’t see eye to eye with the latest chairperson to head the inquiry, Professor Alexis Jay.
One wonders if the intention, is to fatally flaw the inquiry, once and for all. Leaving the alleged victims in permanent state of limbo.

There may yet still be hope, that the dis-United Kingdom can remain inside the EU. Nicolas Sarkozy has stated that if he is becomes French president, he will meet with Theresa May and Angela Merkel, in the hope of persuading the British people to declare the Brexit vote null and void.
http://uk.businessinsider.com/french-president-hopeful-sarkozy-promised-britain-exit-from-brexit-2016-9
Sarkozy, who, is seen by some as a competent orator, was somewhat of a understudy to Chirac, until he backed Chirac’s rival Balladur in 1995. Chirac, went on to become President of France, and Sarkozy was frozen out.
However Sarkozy, has negotiated with some tricky characters, over the years, none more so than the Human Bomb.
Sarkozy, voted against the war on Iraq, mainly due to alleged business dealings with Saddam.
@ Republicofscotland September 29, 2016 at 14:36
The EU run by an unelected, unaccountable bureaucracy SELECTED by Banksters and Corporatists.
It is a major building-block in the Luciferian NWO ‘One World Government’, which they intend to force on us. And you seem keen to join of your own free will?

Too true! Particularly Scottish sheep.
Saudis getting shirty
Saudi Arabia and its allies could retaliate against US legislation allowing the kingdom to be sued for the 9/11 attacks,
including scaling back investment in the US economy or restricting access to important regional air bases, experts claim.
https://www.rt.com/news/361058-saudi-us-lawsuit-retaliate/
Maybe the Saudis should think once, think twice,
before supporting TERROR
If the Saudis participated in the 9/11 conspiracy because they were asked to do so by the U.S. government, or at least by leading officials in it, (and otherwise what was in it for them?) one can understand why they would be peeved by being singled out for blame.
More conspiracy talk from the Grand Master.
In my opinion the Saudi stuff is just another red herring.
The real culprit – which is the US military-industrial complex – is totally out of control, and has been for decades now.
They have so much tax payer’s cash sloping around that they can even afford an army of trolls, an army which consists of people who have the morals of a Turkish brothel keeper.
These people are total and utter scum, and they will be dealt with.

Please post the address of your gite and some info on terms and conditions.
There must be some like-minded people on here who would be seriously interested in spending a holiday there just chilling, drinking good wine and engaging in long, insightful and informative conversations with you.
Go on – you know it makes economic sense!
Have you not noticed how the US infrastructure falls apart as they spend more and more money on “defence”? Bridges falling down; train accidents; cities going bankrupt; etc…
As for electrical transformers on poles where they cook under the noonday sun like deep fat fryers… oh don’t get me going. ROFL
http://www.usnews.com/news/the-report/articles/2016-03-15/ask-an-economist-is-americas-infrastructure-destined-to-crumble
“The American Society of Civil Engineers most recently gave America a D+ rating in terms of infrastructure, citing dilapidated roadways, insufficient waterways and “a pressing need for modernization.” The group estimates $3.6 trillion would need to be invested into U.S. infrastructure by 2020 just to raise the country’s support systems to acceptable levels. “
Reminds me of the last years of the USSR.
What event or development has suddenly brought Herbie and Macks out of retirement, I wonder?
Repost – of great interest and importance – from the “Lifeboat News”/ex Medialens website (it’s about Mr Blair’s wife):
“I never knew that she was another Theresa.
On the Renault board! There for four years.
http://group.renault.com/en/our-company/leadership/board-of-directors/
Does she get free cars for her brood?”
Readers will note the charming use of the word “brood” to describe Mrs Blair’s children.
But perhaps the poster doesn’t like children very much?
Some of us remember No 1 brood falling down drunk in the streets 🙂
As in:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/822238.stm
They must be so proud of the brood 🙂
Alan
So you like the word brood?
How’s your brood getting on? And your old woman?
“But perhaps the poster doesn’t like children very much?”
Surely getting children requires the assistance of a woman but if somebody spends their entire time tilting at windmills on the web then they they are extremely unlikely to find one?
Unless, of course, one has a mother who arranges a marriage to somebody with an “ology” 🙂
There comes a time in every man’s life when he must stand up and tell his mother he’s an adult. This usually happens at around 45. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Dear Darling Son and That Person You Married,
I hope you are well. Please don’t worry about me. I’m just fine considering I can’t breathe or eat. The important thing is that you have a nice holiday, thousands of miles away from your ailing mother. I’ve sent along my last ten pounds in this card, which I hope you’ll spend on my grandchildren. G-d knows their mother never buys them anything nice. They look so thin in their pictures, poor babies.
Thank you so much for the birthday flowers, dear boy. I put them in the freezer so they’ll stay fresh for my grave. Which reminds me — we buried Grandma last week. I know she died years ago, but I got to yearning for a good funeral, so Aunt Minnie and I dug her up and had the services all over again. I would have invited you, but I know that woman you live with would have never let you come. I bet she’s never even watched that videotape of my haemorrhoid surgery, has she?
Well son, it’s time for me to crawl off to bed now. I lost my cane beating off muggers last week, but don’t you worry about me. I’m also getting used to the cold since they turned my heat off and am grateful because the frost on my bed numbs the constant pain. Now don’t you even think about sending any more money, because I know you need it for those expensive family holidays you take every year. Give my love to my darling grand-babies and my regards to whatever-her-name-is — the one with the black roots who stole you screaming from my bosom.
Love, Mum

‘Readers will note the charming use of the word “brood” to describe Mrs Blair’s children.
But perhaps the poster doesn’t like children very much?’
Well, if their treatment of them is anything to go by, the IDF, Shin Bet etc. sure as hell don’t like Palestinian children, otherwise they wouldn’t torture them break their limbs (in an officially sanctioned program), falsely imprison them, or kill them.
Over to you , ‘Couldn’t Give a kuk’.

“But perhaps the poster doesn’t like children very much?”
Hey Habba, my children have never been able to figure out why their Mum got to 30 years old and decided she was an old woman who had never had it so bad; do you think I should point them in the direction of jokes about J-wish mothers? 🙂 🙂 🙂
I would do so, you understand, but I am very reluctant to run down their Mum, cos it is just such bad form. So I made a mistake and I have to live with it, but that is my problem, and not my childrens…

‘Spawn’ would have been a better choice. And except for little Leo, who is a teenager*, and hence even worse, they are no longer children.
*yet to do ‘work experience’ for French oligarch Bernard Arnault, like the others, be bought a nice house, like the others, and jemmied into a non-job with the help of Cherie’s chums, like the others. But probably won’t be working for Hillary – that option failed for Nicky.
“Does she get free cars for her brood?”
Undoubtedly! But then again, they are built for broods, not drivers. A driver would always choose an Alfa Romeo 🙂
Shimon Peres: Israeli war criminal whose victims the West ignored
https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20160928-shimon-peres-israeli-war-criminal-whose-victims-the-west-ignored/
“Shimon Peres, who passed away Wednesday aged 93 after suffering a stroke on 13 September, epitomised the disparity between Israel’s image in the West and the reality of its bloody, colonial policies in Palestine and the wider region.
Peres was born in modern day Belarus in 1923, and his family moved to Palestine in the 1930s. As a young man, Peres joined the Haganah, the militia primarily responsible for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinian villages in 1947-49, during the Nakba.”
Robert Fisk on “The Butcher of Qana”.

Alan.
Yes, I read that post the other day, Fisk’s account of the brutal murders, in his book, Pity the Nation, are harrowing, and at times disturbing, to think that a section of society, that was once mercilessly persecuted, could go on and, commit, henious atrocities, against another section of society is unbelievable.
The above brings me nicely, to the plethora of eulogies, thrust upon us, by the media, over the passing of a supposedly great man. Even Obama, paid, homage, maybe he saw something of himself in one of the apartheid states founding fathers. Afterall, Obama is officially the US president, to be the longest at war.
This is fun.
Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton: whoever wins it will still mean endless war.

You remember a couple of weeks back Celtic FC supported Palestinians? They’ve been fined 10K for doing so.
https://www.morningstaronline.co.uk/a-2124-Celtic-fined-10k-for-standing-by-Palestine
Alan.
I read that report, in another tabloid, since the fine Celtic FC, have raised a reported €200,000 Euro’s for Palestinian charities, a quite remarkable achievement.
However Uefa, shouldn’t be let of the hook so lightly, so to speak. Uefa claim the banners (Palestinian flags) under article 16 are illicit banners.
But Uefa, have failed on several occasions, on being asked, why the flag of a member association (again the Palestinian flag) of the world governing body FIFA, is offensive?
As I’ve stated before Alan, Gianni Infantino, the head of FIFA, (who took over from the rather tarnished Sepp Blatter) appears to be happy with the status quo. To the masses though, in my opinion, it looks blatently biased.
MORE than £10 million of Scottish taxpayers’ money is to be spent on overseas aid despite warnings of drastic cuts.
Discuss
I would like to understand, why can’t Ms. Nicola Sturgeon concentrate on her important day job, what is it with her attempting to strut
on the World Stage?
The SNP asked for a Referendum.
They were grantd their wish.
This happened two years ago.
The result was that the majority of those who voted, voted to remain within the United Kingdom.
If the government of the United Kingdom, make a grant to an overseas state, that should be it.
The tax payers of Scotland, will already have contributed.
So why does Ms. Nicola think the tax payers of Scotland should pay twice?
Tomorrow, Margaret turns 80 and the family are planning a big party. The celebration is a welcome distraction from the long battle they’ve been fighting to improve the area. Their MSP is the first minister of Scotland, Ms. Nicola Sturgeon.
Crosbie says that she and other members of the Govanhell Community Campaign have met with Sturgeon a number of times over the years to discuss the problems. The most recent meeting was last Friday.
“She said to me, ‘We can’t change things overnight’. I said: ‘No, Nicola, we’ve been telling you about this for five years’.
“If she can’t sort out this one square mile area, what chance has she got with the whole of Scotland?”
Michael.
Your comment on Govanhill, is rather irrelevant, there are numerous areas of the dis-United Kingdom that are in need of investment.
I look forward to reading articles in here of run down areas of England, Im sure Theresa May, will provide more investment in those areas in the future, and hopefully, Ian Dunt and Natalie Bloomer of the Politics UK website, will feature them with similar gusto.
I have found many links to run down English towns, but I don’t feel the need to belittle those towns anymore by posting links to them.
Easy one to answer; her local office had to close down and move elsewhere because the rats moved in. It will probably take her another year just sorting out the paperwork.
Not just rats but cockroaches as well.

But the people she represents can’t escape.
And bedbugs.
“People are having to chuck out their mattresses because of the bedbugs. But there is so much poverty that other people are then taking the mattresses off the streets and into their own homes. So the bedbugs are spreading.”
Her constituents have made a video. Many of them would like to be able to just move away too but it isn’t so easy for them.

Snap.
Is that not nationalistic enough for you? just 10 million?
More interested what’s being done, proposed to be done, promised to be done, maybe one day, to stop tax evasion in the sceptic isles.
The economy can’t afford people to park stale monies past the exchequer and depriving the NHS of funding therewith.
“Sceptic Isles” is good. Eurosceptic. Cheers for that, Nevermind.
Now go back to your relentless negativity and obvious dislike of Britain.
There is nothing negative about busting offshore tax havens and making these tax evaders pay their fair share, which many of them have not paid in decades, making more monies available for humanitarian causes such as staffing the NHS so it can cope.
Ending non dom status must also be a consideration.
FFS, Nevermind, can you not write a single post in understandable English?
If you can’t – or can’t be arsed to make the effort (ask your wife, perhaps?) – why don’t you just write them in German, we’ll understand.
Sounds like Bangladesh ought to be sending Scotland aid.
Surely overseas aid should be a matter reserved for the govt of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, ie the state? And not something for a regional assembly?
SHORT DEUTSCHE BANK
Yes it looks like this test case by the Society for Corporate Compliance and Ethics has enthused the US Government to ask Deutsche Bank for 14 billion as part of their ‘guilt’ in the 2008 slump.
But lets not gloat, because this is not a pay back for rejecting TTIP, its just a start in taking control over some financial institutions.
http://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/unternehmen/deutsche-bank-warum-die-us-regierung-milliarden-fordert-a-1114654.html
Für Washington dagegen ist dies ein Testfall: Wie viel kann es den Europäern für ihre Mitschuld an der Finanzkrise in Rechnung stellen? Im Visier stehen da auch Barclays Chart zeigen, HSBC Chart zeigen, Credit Suisse Chart zeigen, UBS Chart zeigen und die Royal Bank of Scotland Chart zeigen.
Freely translated, above means that this is a test case for washington, as to how much they can charge/bill European banks for the share guilt of the Financial crisis. The cross hair is also directed at Barclays Chart, HSBC chart,Credit Suisse chart, UBS chart and the Royal Bank of Scotland chart.
Deutsche Bank is just the first and biggest target.
Strangely enough, 14 billion is about what Apple is being stung for as a tax bill. Wonder if the two are related?
BLiar was at Peres’ funeral. Wearing his kippah.

So was Nobel Prize Peace winner President Obama, and they all praised fellow Prize winner Peres.
The world’s leading war mongers have a lock on peace prizes, showing what a shit hole the whole place is.
UN condemns killing of at least 15 civilians in US drone strike in Afghanistan
Michael Norton @14.26
What has that got to do with Peres’ funeral?
Sharp Ears, I would have thought it was quite appropriate
OBOMBA was at the fest, he is sending drones around the world to kill people remotely,
OBOMBA was given a Nobel Peace Prize.
PERES was given a Nobel Peace Prize.
get it yet?
Yes I get it.
Cut it.
Charlie’s kippah had the Prince of Wales’ crest embroidered on it. If I were Welsh Chapel I’d be very offended indeed.
Burt since you are not, why not have something relevant to say about the arch hypocrite and murderer Shimon Peres?
I did. Go forth and multiply.
Even the Mossad has come out with unprecedented praise for Shimon Peres with current director Yossi Cohen alluding to all his covert efforts to build up Israel.
Was Peres behind the massacre of those Egyptian prisoners on the Sinai during the Six Day War which led to the USS Liberty shoot up, and did he set up Rabin for assassination?
Oh, and don’t forget the Mossad getting rid of Nobel Peace Prize winner Yasser Arafat by polonium-210 poisoning, as it did with Alexander Litvinenko.
Russian President Putin did not attend the mass hypocrisy over the long expected demise of Peres.
Putin had done too many things for these total fakers, especially helping cover up the brutal assassination of Arafat in the hope that then something constructive would happen in Palestine, but conditions only got worse.
You should read ‘Operation Cyanide’ by Peter Hounam to understand what really occurred re the USS Liberty.
Yes, Israel committed a War Crime by massacring Egyptian prisoners of war, but that was NOT the reason for Israel’s murderous attack on the Liberty, which had been cooked up by LBJ and the Mossad BEFORE the Six-Day War.
And the world was, I believe, nearer to a nuclear war then than during the Cuban Missile Crisis, but the vast majority of people are totally oblivious to the fact the world was close to WWIII because of LBJ’s murderous plans.
B52’s were armed, engines running, on runways on SAC bases around the world, in case Russia reacted to LBJ’s plans; nuclear armed planes were on the way to bomb Egypt (in ‘retaliation’ for the attack and sinking of the Liberty), and were recalled when just three minutes from their targets (also planes from North African USAF bases), because the Liberty got an SOS out, and miraculously refused to sink.
“US Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter told American troops at Minot Air Force Base in South Dakota that the Pentagon has been seeking $108 billion over the next five years to upgrade the nation’s nuclear triad of Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles, ballistic submarines, and strategic bombers. He also announced that NATO is reviewing its “nuclear playbook” to deter potential “terrible attacks” by Russia.”
https://www.rt.com/news/361141-us-nuclear-concern-russia/
So the Great Satan, is ploughing more money into its aggressive foreign policy maker, ie, its armed forces.
Carter, claims Russia carries potential terror attacks, in my opinion the real threat to world peace and a full scale world war, isn’t Russia, but the Great Satan itself. The war hawk nation has around 670 military installations in nations around the globe, though Ron Paul claimed that the US had 900 (circa 2011).
If there’s going to be a threat to society as a whole around the world, it’s going to come from the Great Satan, and its in part coerced minions, who follow Washington’s lead.
The likes of Carter and Kerry, the latter who opposed the Vietnam war, a Vietnam vet, (mind you Alistair Darling was actually a socialist at one point) now herald Russia as the evil empire.

that’s not so much money the total budget for renewing Trident, over its life time is said to be a quarter of a trillion pounds.
Speaking of Trident, I wonder if this news on RT will be reported in Western media. No doubt the Scots at least would like to know about it. Trident nuclear submarine officers destroy Navy bar in drunken riot after 3 months at sea:
Sounds like the crew got sick and tired of playing Russian sub off Scotland and other nearby waters.
Lysais.
Thank you for that link.
However most people in Scotland are well aware, of the danger Trident submarines pose to its people.
William McNeilly a whistle blower who sailed on the nuclear sub HMS Victory, spent months documenting the terrible hazards posed by the, the loch polluting subs.
He (McNeilly) said that alarms went off so many times on the sub that they were switched off, or ignored. He added flamable items were stored on or next to elecrtrical equipment, the gym workout area was next to the missiles, and that fire alarms were kept permanently off.
Mr McNeilly also added that security at Faslane was lax and accessing the subs was easily obtained, even when carrying back packs or equipment.
SEPA, the Scottish Environmental Protection agency, know the nuclear subs are polluting Faslane, but are powerless to do anything about it as the MoD supercedes them.
Trident and the warhead storage facility deep in the mountain, are only 30 miles away from Scotland’s largest city.
Lysias is in “wondering” mode again.

The (Glasgow) Daily Record got it. Probably a little provincial for the London media – it happened on the base, and it’s not as if they set fire to Park Lane.
