…. Although using the name, street tactics and appeal of the Occupy Wall Street movement, Occupy Central has not made one demand on the banks in Hong Kong. In contrast, Occupy Wall Street was a movement that focused the outrage of tens of thousands of youth on the criminal role of the Wall Street banks, particularly in extracting from the U.S. government a trillion-dollar bailout that saved the largest banks while leaving millions of homes of working people in foreclosure, along with millions unemployed. In Hong Kong the role of the banks is enshrined in law for the next 50 years. How can this be overlooked? Understanding the special status of the former British colony of Hong Kong within China is a key part of understanding who Occupy Central represents. ….. Demonstrations in Hong Kong, China, raising demands on the procedures to be followed in city elections in 2017, have become an international issue and a source of political confusion.
Hong Kong Occupy Central’s US Backed Leaders: Entwined With US State Department-Funded Organizations
Over the past several days, there has been a certain backlash, even among Hong Kong’s “Occupy Central” supporters themselves against the now exposed, US-backed leadership of the movement. After denying, then unsuccessfully defending the fact that…
We begin with the Public Health Agency of Canada, which once(as recently as August 6) stated on its website that: “In the laboratory, infection through small-particle aerosols has been demonstrated in primates, and airborne spread among humans is strongly suspected, although it has not yet been conclusively demonstrated (1, 6, 13). The importance of this route of transmission is not clear. Poor hygienic conditions can aid the spread of the virus.” No more; the “airborne spread among humans is strongly suspected” language has beencleansed: “In laboratory settings, non-human primates exposed to aerosolized ebolavirus from pigs have become infected, however, airborne transmission has not been demonstrated between non-human primates.

The United States is seriously agonized by two histories. One is her failure in the Korean War (25.6.1950 – 27.7.1953) and another is North Korea’s manufacture and possession of nuclear. In an attempt to…
The March to War: Fighting ISIL is a Smokescreen for US Mobilization against Syria, Iran The ISIL or IS threat is a smokescreen. The strength of the ISIL has deliberately been inflated to get public support for the Pentagon and to justify the illegal bombing of Syria. It has also been used to justify the mobilization of what is looking more and more like a large-scale US-led military buildup in the Middle East. The firepower and military assets being committed go beyond what is needed for merely fighting the ISIL death squads. While the US has assured its citizens and the world that troops will not be sent on the ground, this is very unlikely. In the first instance, it is unlikely because boots on the ground are needed to monitor and select targets. Moreover, Washington sees the campaign against the ISIL fighters as something that will take years.
Washington has launched a large-scale propaganda campaign to support Marina Silva, the Brazilian presidential race candidate for the Brazilian Socialist Party. They keep on saying her victory is guaranteed in the final election. The predictions…
