Code Blue for Code Pink?

I've wondered from time to time whether Code Pink's Medea Benjamin was working with the CIA, etc., ever since she tried to frame the US invasion of Afghanistan as being helpful to women in Afghanistan back in 2001.

I don't wonder anymore.

Appearing on an RT program this weekend, she called for "consistency" among those who marched against the US invasion of Iraq, etc., saying we must also be against this "illegal Russian aggression" like the "thousands of brave Russians who have demonstrated against the war, saying 'not in our name'".

I don't give a good goddamn how it's framed. Calling for Russia to withdraw from Ukraine allies you with the CIA and with the past 100 years of imperialism's various plans to take Russia apart that have been on the agenda of the US since at least 1917.

"Ukraine grain" is actually owned by US/EU corporate giants

"Forced collectivization" - Vanguard style Here, Vanguard, et al are doing for real what Stalin and the USSR were accused of doing. Except it is all of Ukraine that is being "liquidated" - physically, and before the eyes of the world. When people talk about "Ukrainian grain" they're actually talking about grain that is now owned by US and EU mega-corporations such as Vanguard Group, Kopernik Global Investors, BNP Asset Management Holding, Goldman Sachs-owned NN Investment Partners Holdings, and Norges Bank Investment Management, which manages Norway’s sovereign wealth fund. Several large US pension funds, foundations, and university endowments are also invested in Ukrainian land through NCH Capital – a US-based private equity fund, which is the fifth largest landholder in the country. How is the takeover of agricultural land happening? Whereas at least 4.3 million hectares are (as of March of last year) already controlled by agribusinesses in Ukraine,

The Ghost of October 1962 Hovers Over Us

"Above all, while defending our own vital interests, nuclear powers must avert those confrontations which bring an adversary to the choice of either a humiliating defeat or a nuclear war." Those words were delivered in June, 1963 by then-President John F. Kennedy at American University in Washington, DC. It was the conclusory lesson he drew from the so-called Cuban Missile Crisis the previous year. An entirely different dynamic exists now between the White House, the Pentagon and the CIA than existed in October, 1962 "Listen. You tell them those chains of command end at one place - me!" - President John F. Kennedy to Kenneth O'Donnell regarding Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Cuban Missile Crisis, per Thirteen Days by Robert F. Kennedy, Sr. And for those who believe that the US can continue to give Ukraine bombs to drop on Russia without Russia holding the US culpable, there's this from that same book: "A missile is a missile...it makes no great differ

A Timeline for the Creation of the State of Israel in Palestine

From a Facebook post by  Fiona Bateson : For those in the back new to this, a simple timeline explanation. Educate yourselves and others. What is happening was inevitable due to the lack of knowledge or complete apathy of much of the international community. The rest of the simple timeline for those who still bother to actually read more than headlines is in the comments below. Feel free to copy the text, save it to your device as a file, read it in full (several times if you have to), and figure out what to do once you fully understand. Many scholars, experts, and academics over the years have warned about the consequences of apathy and misunderstanding, which we are all now beginning to see.  Turn off your television sets and learn, then act on what you now know. I won't get into why you've been deliberately mislead, that should be obvious - suffice to say in very simple terms, by 1916 it was obvious to those in power that oil was the future, henceforth the Sykes-Picot agreem
