The Donald describes what this election is about (ht Saker). Posted by: Jackrabbit | Oct 16 2016 15:56 utc | 201 War of words: Iraqi PM slams Erdogan over Mosul statement
Kurdish leader: “Time has come to liberate Mosul” from ISIS
I wonder if the Kurds and Turks will cooperate in the destruction of Mosul? Posted by: jfl | Oct 17 2016 9:37 utc | 202 The Rosenburg Files: Germany’s justice ministry was a stronghold of former Nazis
Not only in Germany under the BMJ, of course, but in the United States, under the CIA. The old bad guys became the new good guys fighting the new bad guys, who were the old good guys. Puts the lie to ‘ideology’. The only ideology in the West is Hurray for me! To hell with you! Posted by: jfl | Oct 17 2016 13:56 utc | 203 Things are heating up, the Brutish Empire of Crown Corporation headqartered in the City of London has become more and more cornered thus forced to show its true face, without that fake “English phlegm and humor”, but that true rabid, brutal, violent, primitive, blood-thirsty muzzle. Closing all of the Russia Today ban accounts in the UK is evidence of how scared The Empire has become of the Truth, how desperate its minions are to keep the populace in the dark, in the Matrix of lies. It seems they are planning some thing “big”, that requires monopoly on the narrative, total blockade on dissident voices, on alternative views, another “Big Lie”.

Posted by: ProPeace | Oct 17 2016 17:57 utc | 205 |Though this is from The Guardian, it is a thought provoking essay worthy of that category: Posted by: Formerly T-Bear | Oct 17 2016 18:43 utc | 206 EU foreign ministers adopt statement denouncing Russia and Syria Posted by: jfl | Oct 18 2016 13:44 utc | 207 Cuba Students March Against US Blockade, Gain Global Support
I hope that’s true about ‘global support’. I hope the Cubans note the only support the USA has for its 50+ years of commercial warfare against them : the same, shameful apartheid state that’s waged warfare on all levels against Palestine and the Palestinians for 68 years. Posted by: jfl | Oct 19 2016 1:30 utc | 208 Turkish military push into Idlib, prepare to assault Kurdish Afrin province
Every day in every way the Turks are coming more and more closely to resemble the colonial settler Israelis. Posted by: jfl | Oct 19 2016 23:23 utc | 209 1964, after indon prez sukarno survived a murkkan/brit regime change, Posted by: denk | Oct 20 2016 3:30 utc | 210 @ denk Posted by: psychohistorian | Oct 20 2016 22:59 utc | 212 psychohistorian 212 Posted by: denk | Oct 21 2016 16:05 utc | 213 In a Guardian thread on the Chinese built Ethiopian first modern rail way, Posted by: denk | Oct 21 2016 16:08 utc | 214 Major Cyber Attacks Shutdown Top US Websites
My first guess would be the NSA, trying out it’s newest weapons.

And yes, Big Pharma spent most for Hillary Clinton. Posted by: somebody | Oct 22 2016 10:42 utc | 217 this is how they solved it Posted by: somebody | Oct 22 2016 11:18 utc | 218 Unitaid is funded by an air ticket tax Posted by: somebody | Oct 22 2016 11:34 utc | 219 Well, here’s a great surprise, given that most of his “comedy” has been threats of assaults and insurrections. Trump Bombed At Charity Dinner Because His Staff Are Incompetent.
“Take my campaign – please! I just flew in from Mar-A-Lago and boy are my arms tired!”
Mrs. Clinton got another jab in. When Trump tweeted about an “almost unanimous” acclaim for his debate “victory,” she replied, “Where was this kind of comedy last night>”
They were able to get it all together, however, and now there are said to be no differences. Trump has indicated Pence would actually be in charge, so I presume he was told “Don’t contradict the boss in public. You’ll get to do as you wish once we’re in office, it’s only for the rubes ’til Election Day.” Posted by: rufus magister | Oct 22 2016 13:39 utc | 220 ROTFLMAO!
