    Israel’s fortress state is the model for the UK’s new asylum policy

    Thursday, 21 April 2022 — Jonathan Cook

    In copying an Israeli scheme to ship refugees to Rwanda, Boris Johnson’s government has turned to the world leader in keeping out ‘undesirables’

    Middle East Eye – 20 April 2022

    There is nothing innovative or humanitarian about Britain’s new policy of shipping asylum seekers, “on a one-way ticket“, thousands of miles to central Africa. Nor is there anything surprising about the choice of destination: Rwanda. Boris Johnson’s government has simply copied wholesale a programme established by Israel eight years ago.

    Thank you very much for inviting me to be here. And I recall our travels in Germany fondly, especially when Steve and I debated the Ukraine issue back then. I agree with what you said by the way, Katrina, when you said that this is the most dangerous crisis since the Second World War. I think it’s actually more dangerous than the Cuban Missile Crisis, which is not to minimize the danger of that crisis. But I think basically what we have here is a war between the United States and Russia and there’s no end in sight. I cannot think of how this can end in the near future. And I think there’s a very dangerous chance of escalation. First of all, escalation to where the United States is actually doing the fighting against Russia, the two sides are clashing militarily, which hasn’t happened so far.

    Armageddon or Renaissance?

    Wednesday, 20 April 2022 — The New Dark Age

    [Introduction

    The following essay by documentary photographer Giorgio Bianchi, based in Donbas since 2014, sent chills up my spine but I do believe it represents the real state of affairs that exist between the US and Russia. On the one hand, the Empire of Lies, consisting of the lead liar the United States, literally followed by the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Canada, Australia and Japan, the ‘honorary’ white nation (as defined by the former Apartheid state, South Africa). These are the core Imperialist states and not surprisingly, all are former colonial powers and/or settler states. It should not surprise us then, that their, alleged, racial superiority is a central theme that all of these countries use to justify their imperial actions of which Ukraine is the latest manifestation. As you will see as you read the essay that this ‘showdown’ if you will, between the US and Russia that’s being fought out in Ukraine, due to the greed and stupidity of its leaders, is the first overt test of the Empire of Lies between its hegemonic control of people and resources, and most of the rest of the planet, who are choosing a different routes. William Bowles]

    Armageddon or Renaissance?

    The Ouster Of Imran Khan: How Much Involvement Did the US Have in Pakistan’s Coup?

    Monday, 18 April 2022 — MintPress News

    ISLAMABAD – Following weeks of high drama and controversy that have racked the nation, Imran Khan has been removed from office. The Pakistani prime minister suffered a vote of no confidence and a loss in the supreme court, ending his rule after less than four years. Coalition partners abandoned him, leaving his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party in the minority.

    Russia Has Launched Phase Two Of Its Operation In Ukraine

    Tuesday, 18 April 2022 — Moon of Alabama

    The neo-conservative ‘Institute for the Study of War’ (ISW) releases daily ‘Russian offensive campaign assessments’. A lot of people in Washington DC seem to read them.

    They are of course pure propaganda only slightly aligned with the actual tactical situation in the Ukraine. I confess that I read them once a while purely for my amusement.

    Russia pushes back western sanctions, revs up operation in Eastern Ukraine

    Tuesday, 19 April 2022 — Indian Punchline

    by M. K. BHADRAKUMAR

    Russian special operation in Donbass entered new phase

    The Russian President Vladimir Putin said defiantly on Monday that the western sanctions have proved to be “ineffective” in meeting their objective. In his words, “They (US and EU) expected these sanctions to rapidly produce a devastating effect on Russia’s finances and economy, sow panic in the markets, bring about a collapse in the banking system and create major shortages of goods in shops.

    UKRAINE: JUST THE FACTS

    Tuesday, 19 April 2022 — Giubbe Rossi (Redcoats)

    Gino Maria Panzeroni Langerhans

    Some of the comments and questions I have received in recent weeks have made it clear to me that many of my readers, as enlightened and informed as they generally are, are not sure what to believe about the action in Ukraine, having been caught in a vortex of lies that passes for media coverage in the West. My purpose here is not to convert or convince, but simply to list a number of aspects of the Ukrainian situation to remember. Let me apologise in advance for any cognitive dissonance this may create; I am just trying to be helpful. The presentation will seem a bit dry in places, but that is because I am trying to stick to known and established facts. I leave it to you to decide how much of what the Western consensus makers are telling you corresponds to these facts.

    By Michael Hudson

    It is now clear that today’s escalation of the New Cold War was planned over a year ago. America’s plan to block Nord Stream 2 was really part of its strategy to block Western Europe (“NATO”) from seeking prosperity by mutual trade and investment with China and Russia.

    Then & Now

    Monday, 18 April 2022 — The New Dark Age

    April 1933. Germany:

    The Nazis began a boycott of Jewish-owned businesses. Stormtroopers positioned themselves in front of Jewish shops, with yellow stars painted on the houses and “Don’t buy from Jews” posters. The SA storm troopers (Hitler took over the SA in 1930) attack shops owned by Jews, pogroms ensue. Under the new law, only “Aryans” are recruited. Government employees of Jewish origin, including school and university professors, are dismissed.

    April 2022 Germany:

    People with Russian passports are “not welcome” in cafés. Clinics refuse to treat Russian patients. Children do not speak Russian on the street to avoid violence. Schoolchildren are forced to repent and answer “correctly” about Ukraine. Russian cultural figures are fired. Truck drivers get their cars beaten up. Russian TV channels are banned. There are “hate letters” in the mailboxes.

    Since February 24, 2022, 383 crimes have been committed in Germany against Russian-speaking citizens, most of them Jews.

    I will leave it here.

    Dutch Journo: ‘We are Here, in Donbass, to Awaken Westerners Deluded by MSM Propaganda’

    8 April 2022 — Orinoco Tribune

    By Ekaterina Blinova

    There are only a handful of Western journalists on the ground in Donbass, while the Western mainstream press is rubber-stamping fake news about the Ukrainian crisis using the same templates it previously exploited in Iraq, Libya and Syria, says Dutch independent journalist Sonja van den Ende.

    PressSonja van den Ende, an independent journalist from Rotterdam, Netherlands, went to the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics as an embedded reporter with the Russian army to see how the special operation is unfolding with her own eyes.
