Obama’s rogue state tramples over every law it demands others uphold

“For 67 years successive US governments have resisted calls to reform the UN security council. They’ve defended a system which grants five nations a veto over world affairs, reducing all others to impotent spectators. They have collaborated with the other four permanent members (the UK, Russia, China and France) in a colonial carve-up. Through this tyrannical dispensation – created at a time when other nations were either broken or voiceless – the great warmongers of the past 60 years remain responsible for global peace. The biggest weapons traders are tasked with global disarmament. Those who trample international law control the administration of justice.”

Republican Rep. Chris Smith pushes for war crimes tribunal on Syria

“A veteran Republican congressman opposed to US missile strikes defended his call Wednesday for a Syrian war crimes tribunal, saying the world should hold that nation’s chemical weapons users to account.  Representative Chris Smith said President Barack Obama should immediately press for the UN Security Council’s establishment of a tribunal to try Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and members of his regime, as well as rebels who the lawmaker said are committing ‘atrocities’ against their own people.  ‘If we made this a real priority, I think we could hold Assad and his abusers to account, as well as those on the rebel side,’ Smith told AFP.”

NSA shares raw intelligence including Americans’ data with Israel

“Details of the intelligence-sharing agreement are laid out in a memorandum of understanding between the NSA and its Israeli counterpart that shows the US government handed over intercepted communications likely to contain phone calls and emails of American citizens. The agreement places no legally binding limits on the use of the data by the Israelis.  The disclosure that the NSA agreed to provide raw intelligence data to a foreign country contrasts with assurances from the Obama administration that there are rigorous safeguards to protect the privacyof US citizens caught in the dragnet.  The deal was reached in principle in March 2009, according to the undated memorandum.”

What Putin Has to Say to Americans About Syria

“It is alarming that military intervention in internal conflicts in foreign countries has become commonplace for the United States. Is it in America’s long-term interest? I doubt it. Millions around the world increasingly see America not as a model of democracy but as relying solely on brute force, cobbling coalitions together under the slogan ‘you’re either with us or against us.’  But force has proved ineffective and pointless. Afghanistan is reeling, and no one can say what will happen after international forces withdraw. Libya is divided into tribes and clans. In Iraq the civil war continues, with dozens killed each day. In the United States, many ask why their government would want to repeat recent mistakes.”

Iran’s new U.N. nuclear envoy gets harsh reception

“Western envoys gave Iran’s new ambassador to the UN atomic agency a frosty welcome Wednesday, saying Tehran’s new government should waste no time proving to the world it does not want the bomb.  Speaking at a meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s board of governors, US envoy Joseph Macmanus said Iran was refusing to comply with UN Security Council and IAEA resolutions demanding it suspend key parts of its nuclear programme.  Iran denies seeking or ever having sought nuclear weapons and argues that the six UN Security Council resolutions passed against it since 2006 — four with sanctions attached — are illegal.”

NSA evidence may be key to Hammarskjold mystery death

“America’s National Security Agency may hold crucial evidence about one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of the Cold War — the cause of the 1961 plane crash which killed United Nations Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold, a commission of prominent jurists says. Widely considered the U.N.’s most effective chief, Hammarskjold died as he was attempting to bring peace to the newly independent Congo. It’s long been rumored that his DC-6 plane was shot down, and an independent commission set up to evaluate new evidence surrounding his death on Monday recommended a fresh investigation — citing radio intercepts held by the NSA as the possible key to solving the case.”

CFR Floats Neo-Bretton Woods to Create a New Monetary System

the-daily-bell-top-logo61

“This article is bylined by Benn Steil of the Council on Foreign Relations. The groundwork is apparently being prepared. The plan has evidently always been a global currency. And it is marching closer.  The world is in a mess and surely the post-Bretton Woods system is responsible for it. One hundred and fifty central banks now administer the world’s money, many under the supervision of the mysterious Bank for International Settlements. Whatever goes on in the world financially is a product of what has gone before. With money stuff controlled the marketplace itself is organized and directed. The free market exists from a production standpoint but not from a demand standpoint.”

Serious Revolving Door Move (Hedge Fund Edition)

EPJ13
“Hedge fund billionaire Paul Tudor Jones has hired one of the International Monetary Fund’s most senior officials, reports FT.  Lorenzo Giorgianni, the deputy head of the IMF’s policy department (!!), will join Jones’s Tudor Investment Corporation in October according to FT. This is serious stuff. IMF and World Bank people have access to all kinds of insider data about money flows and where money is placed. Just in casual conversations with IMF and World Bank people, I have learned all kinds of very valuable information. I know for example that Slovenia is most likely the next country to experience a financial crisis, because a senior guy at one of these organizations told me.”

UN finds Syria war crimes ‘on both sides’

“It was clear that ‘the majority of casualties result from unlawful attacks using conventional weapons,’ the Commission of Inquiry on Syria said in a statement.  Forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad’s regime ‘have continued to conduct widespread attacks on the civilian population, committing murder, torture, rape and enforced disappearance as crimes against humanity,’ according to the report, which covers the period from May 15th to July 15th.  It also charged that anti-government groups had ‘committed war crimes,’ including murder, torture and hostage-taking.  The report does not address the period which includes the August 21st suspected chemical attack.”

An Inflection Point for US Global Hegemony?

“If there were ever reasons for other global actors to decide it is time to rid themselves of connections to the American state, it would seem now is as good a time as any.  So again, what does this have to do with Syria?  Syria offers an opportunity to get a peek at the answer to the question: will these non-Anglo power centers fall in line, or will they stand tall?  Does the Anglo-American elite have the strings of the Chinese and Russian leaders (and the rest) or are the political leaders in these countries in a position to take a different path?  In other words, this affair in Syria offers the possibility of a real inflection point in the big-game of global elite control.”
