Look at this shit. Cop is out looking for someone. Sees some other random black guy. Shoots him to death. Now claims this completely innocent man, who just went to get sandwiches for his family, threatened to murder a cop for no reason. That is a lie. The cop is the murderer. And we all know he will get away with it too.
She always loses. Like that time she tripled and lost the war in Afghanistan. She could have been Obama's secretary of defense. The first woman(!) and everything. But no, she decided to wait so she could be appointed by Hillary Clinton and be a part of the big women taking over the government and smashing the glass ceiling together thing and all that. So she let it be known she did not seek and would not accept Obama's nomination for SecDef. Then Hillary lost! Haha. So Flournoy was in purgatory for four years, making millions of dollars from arms dealers. Waiting. Then Biden won the...
Scott talks to Chris Woods from Airwars about some of the difficulties in assessing civilian casualties from U.S. bombs in Iraq. Woods estimates very conservatively that between eight and thirteen thousand civilians have been killed during the war in Iraq, but coalition governments only admit to about 1,400. When factoring in excess deaths from the secondary consequences of war, some have estimated that civilian deaths could be as high as one million. Sadly this is not an issue that receives attention in most circles—the war in Iraq is too far away, and for the most part people in the west...
Danny Sjursen is back for a look at Biden's foreign policy team, in particular his new National Security Advisor, Jake Sullivan. Sjursen says that Sullivan fits right in with many of Biden's other cabinet picks: extremely talented, well-credentialed, respectable people who use their talents to advance horrible policies while deflecting criticism for them. Sullivan, a war hawk, worked closely with Hillary Clinton during Obama's presidency, especially on the intervention in Libya. He appears to favor all the same foreign policies from those years now that he's a part of the Biden...
Scott talks to Grant Smith about the case of Jonathan Pollard, an American intelligence analyst who pled guilty to espionage on behalf of Israel in the 1980s. Pollard has been imprisoned for his crimes since then, until he was recently released on parole by the Trump administration. For years working in intelligence, Pollard stole secret documents for the Israeli government, something other American figures have done in recent memory, but for which few other than Pollard have been punished. Now Pollard is on the verge of joining those others who walked free for their crimes. Discussed on the...
Gilbert Doctorow talks about Biden's pick for Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, particularly his famous stepfather, Samuel Pisar. Pisar is well-known these days for being a holocaust survivor rescued by American GIs during World War II, but is less known for his decorated international career afterward. Doctorow brings up Pisar's past because of his prominent role as a representative for American companies in Europe, and especially in the Soviet Union. Pisar's view was that commerce is an important feature of peaceful diplomatic relations, even with semi-hostile countries. Doctorow hopes...
Gareth Porter discusses the recent assassination of Iranian defense official Mohsen Fakhrizadeh by the Israeli government, which continues to claim that Fakhrizadeh was a "top nuclear scientist" in Iran. In reality, explains Porter, Fakhrizadeh was not a nuclear scientist, and this assassination is part of a years-long campaign to convince the world that Iran is pursuing nuclear weapons. No doubt the assassination was intended to provoke some kind of response from the Iranians before President Trump leaves the White House. It will also make it harder, he says, for President Biden to...
