    Interesting comments from posters over at Moon of Alabama:

    Apparently ISIS are being transferred to the Hindu Kush. That is a part of Afghanistan that juts out across the northern part of Pakistan. (bit like a “peninsula”)

    Guess what ; the Chinese new Silk road would have to pass through the area. ISIS effectively cuts the…[Read more]

    I am not an expert in this area at all but do have training as an electrical engineer.
    I had a quick look at this and, to me, it looks like an issue with the presentation layer of the data. You can see other presentation layer issues in the larger world map in the article you linked to; for example, there seem to be small “slices” with no colour…[Read more]

    One German automaker has finally made its mind to resume business in Iran after a 17-year gap, as more European companies seem to be dropping their qualms about trade with the Islamic Republic.

    French energy giant Total’s signing of a $5 billion contract on Monday to develop phase 11 of…[Read more]

    That sculpture in the opening photograph of the article reminds me of the many sculptures done by Helen Martins (deceased) in Nieu-Bethesda, a small town in South Africa’s eastern cape. She created hundreds of sculptures and lived in a house called “The Owl House”. See here: https://www.thoughtco.com/owl-house-nieu-bethesda-south-africa-4123204

    I think the explosion is in a substation not a full power station: https://www.rt.com/news/395481-russia-power-substation-explosion/

    “The cause of the accident was the disconnection of the first and second bus sections in the substation 220 kV “Vostochnaya”. Energy quickly made repairs.” from here: https://rusreality.com/2017/07/06/in-the-north-of-tomsk-restored-power-supply-is-broken/

    • Once again .. Putin proves he’s the only true .. sane statesman left on this planet ..

      • yeeeeh… I’m still not sure he’s trustworthy.. Too much White Knight in Shiny Armour.. he sounds too good to be true, so I’m instantly taking a step back.. its all psy ops.. all propoganda. Everything we see is a lie or a sales pitch. Dont forget that.

        However I do agree.. he appears.. to be the least criminally insane and purely evil…..…[Read more]

        • Maybe I should have stated it like this ..
          Once again .. Putin proves he’s the only true and sane ACTOR left on this planet ..
          Even if it is all smoke and mirrors .. which it probably is .. he TRULY does deserve an Oscar ..

          • It is all smoke and mirrors.. ‘Ill try and find the book about the CIA where they show how pretty much everything they did, was done using ‘magic tricks’ – By that I mean magicians pulling white rabbits, sleight of hand (to administer drugs and pscho actif agents, etc) All smoke and mirrors..

    Here is a link to The Duran for comment and analysis and the full text of the joint Russia and China statement on the N. Korea situation.

    Yes, it’s like one of those children’s games where the “baddies” take turns to be “it”…. at least so far as the western media establishment is concerned.

    Interesting. I was just listening this morning to the second part of the Forum Borealis interview with Catherine Fitts (it’s not yet publically released but is available to sponsors). One of the areas briefly mentioned is the demolition costs avoided on September 11th when the towers were brought down. Apparently the buildings were full of…[Read more]

    For those interested, here is a transcript on Voltairenet.org (I am sure it appears elsewhere on the web too) of President Putin’s recent “Direct Line”, where he answers questions from Russian citizens live on TV:

    From Adam Garrie at The Duran: “An Iran style deal could be on the table for North Korea as Russia and China assert dominance over the issue”. He interprets this as multipolarism in action. I am not so sure… but it’s interesting that the statement was a joint Russian and Chinese position.

    “Today, Russia and China jointly issued a statement…[Read more]

    • As soon as Russia and China get their stuff together, we might.. just maybe.. see a revolution in Geopolitics and we can get rid of these roman empire senator politicians who worship themselves and the children they rape. .. sorry and the ground they walk on..

    I agree, it’s not shocking at all…. to me, it’s just headline “click bait”… but if it gets someone to read a bit more and understand a little more, well perhaps it’s okay.

    Gun-running via diplomatic flights on Azerbaijan’s Silk Way Airlines… guess they learned the trick from the CIA… or maybe they are the CIA/CIA puppets:

    This reminds me of the stories that came out in the news when the online video “game” / “virtual world” Second Life was popular and new. People were making trades on online real estate, buying built up avatars for ridiculous amounts of money, companies such as Ernst and Young even held virtual career fairs there. It was all quite extraordinary….…[Read more]

    Interesting article…. outlines mechanisms of political correctness, intransigent minorities (as Nassim Taleb calls them) and the pursuant oppression of broader society and culture.
