VIDEO: Trump Won't Be Cancelling World War 3 After All
from StormCloudsGathering
On April 6th, 2017, on the 100 year anniversary of America’s entry into World War I, Donald Trump launched airstrikes against against the Syrian government; in retaliation for a gas attack supposedly perpetrated by Assad. There was no investigation, not even a hack job of a frame up like we had in 2003. The evidence we do have contradicts the official story, and the stakes are much higher this time around. Full transcript and sources available here.

On the other hand, I distrust counter-propaganda that’s delivered with the same tricks (what’s with the Batman voice?) employed by propaganda. I’ve listened to this guy off and on for years now and I know the story (YouTube hassled him, his family went “off-grid” and he got very sick; his videos are infrequent now and his voice changed, etc). I was always suspicious of the highly polished quality, and prolific output, of his videos… and his extremely melodramatic fear mongering: “WW3” has been his go-to meme for quite a while, now. For anyone already conversant with these parapolitical topics, he brings little or no new info. Mostly he seems very good at scaring the shit out of the viewer. What’s his function?
Yes, some valuable perspective. “His voice changed” sounds particularly weird on the face of it. Maybe in context it makes more sense? It’s a difficult issue because, while caution and cynicism are necessary, we also don’t want to lose ourselves entirely in mutual suspicion.
What I’ve found, over the years, over and over again, is that the best Info comes from either the Limited Hangout Sites or the blatant Disinfo/ Blackwashing Sites, because the point is to dilute or taint the Truth with nonsense… therefore, the actual Truth is mixed in with nonsense and what’s required is to tease it out. Which is to all to say that even if StormCloudsGathering can not necessarily be trusted, it can still be a source for Info of some kind. But, re: his voice: the octave it’s in now could be explained by illness, but the inflections are a choice and they veer dangerously toward rhetorical snake oil, no? The problem being that, to be honest, we should expect that the vast majority of our “sources” are controlled (and/or created) by TPTB. Vast budget and all that… The only Parapolitical Commenters I ever knew of to pass… Read more »
Addendum: speaking of Disinfo: Miles Mathis, usually good for great chunks of provocative material mixed in with jaw-droppingly fluorescent nonsense (gematria + iffy genealogy research + unsupportably vast leaps in logic) went offline for a few days and has reappeared, very strangely, with some pretty good straight-up research, apparently. I’ve only read the first few pages but it’s written in a very different narrative voice, with no bullshitty, apophenia-prone gematria mixed in; worth a read, perhaps:

The notion that there is an objective truth to agree on about the function someone is or is not playing or providing neglects a consciousness of the awareness of our own. So ‘what function does it serve me – in this moment?’ is given all the meaning it has by the purpose and focus of what I resonate with in what is relevant to me. Thus a negative or deceitful intent in another may serve a positive outcome in me. No one as I see it, has the whole picture – and we all operate many levels. The old paradigm – as far as I am concerned – is a good v evil war narrative – that splits the mind to mutually polarized exclusions and subjection. Yet that narrative identity embodies and pervades the way we think and see the world and each other, and are seen in return. Translation… Read more »
“The notion that there is an objective truth to agree on about the function someone is or is not playing or providing neglects a consciousness of the awareness of our own.” This is pseudo-metaphysical nonsense of absolutely no use in confronting or evaluating disinformation, Binra. I’m afraid you’re the perfect product of the decades-long project to cripple the resistance, intellectually. You’ve clearly bought all that quasi-Heisenbergian (post-Guru) claptrap hook, line and sinker. But therevery obviously is an Objective Truth about the various roles certain actors are playing, because certain actors are on The Payroll: their pay packets have an objective Reality. Others are merely Dupes. Or hobbyists. Example: when it was admitted that Peter Matthiessen co-founded the Paris Review at the best of the CIA as an extension of the CIA’s goal of sneaky cultural influence, Matthiessen’s shill-function as such was established, by those who’d suspected it all along, as… Read more »
I ‘t don’t and haven’t read any of your listed isms. that’s your measuring stick. But pigeonholing is a subtler version of divide and rule -or the breakdown of communication by ruling or filtering out anything that does not fit its boxes. Because we are predicated upon different presumptions we easily mis-communicate. You are focused in the political morass and I only use that to illuminate underlying psychic-emotional patterns that effectively conform us and our world in ‘secret’ or unconsciously to our surface consciousness. Narrative identity provides the world you want – and if you want justified grievance, you have it in abundance. Relational identity has to release its judgement to let another in – and let something of self-revealing out – such as to grow trust – which is the basis of all true communication. And loss of which is insanity as is becoming starkly obvious – unless all… Read more »
“Narrative identity provides the world you want – and if you want justified grievance, you have it in abundance.”
Tell that vacuous oh-wow-ism to the next family to get their heads blown off for haplessly falling afoul of US foreign policy; tell it to the next black-skinned martyr of a routine traffic stop; tell everyone having their Lives crushed by The Neo Liberal Serf-Juicing Juggernaut that “narrative identity” is actually what they should be worried about because those aren’t real guns or real psychopaths and it is certainly not real blood, real poverty, real grief or real injustice. It’s all in their heads, everything is “relative” and… uh… (takes another toke)…. yeah….
“Why then not just read the short bit you alight in – free of resentment? ”
Because it’s like stepping in intellectual dogshit?

“There was no investigation, not even a hack job of a frame up like we had in 2003” No, not prior to the verdict, but after the fact the ‘hack job’ of an investigation is well underway to justify the verdict. It seems the UK is the lead prosecutor with the OPCW and France running point – who have provided “incontrovertible” evidence that sarin, or a “sarin-like substance” was used at Khan Shaykhun – without setting foot in Khan Shaykhun. For both Matthew Rycroft and Bojo FM there is “only one conclusion, that the Assad regime almost certainly gassed its own people in breach of international law and the rules of war.” ‘Evidence’ to follow. That’s it then, based on a highly questionable chain of evidence – Assad dunnit? For the epistemically closed, those addicted to the soma of the M$M and a ‘priestly caste’ of authoritian figures that are… Read more »
Multi-level theatre by which to cage in fear and milk blood? As in feeding private gratifications off via life-abuse Death Wish writ large? As in self-hate finding embodiment in the negation of embodiment? Diversionary ‘mind’ by which to attract and trap attention in reaction? Thus ‘surviving’ as a narrative sense of continuity. Dissociation into fragmented replay of a broken reality, as if the replay will be different – will fix, make reparation, do justice – get vengeance – Escape! In a dream, every one and everything in the dream is cast from within one’s own mind and given all the meanings it has. Fighting over meanings as if the winner becomes true. The mono-poly or uni-polar idea is the ‘Winner’, ‘Victor’ and god over all else – in fantasy! Yet this cycles and recycles fear that is at root a conflicted sense of self/reality AS the a-Tempt to dictate, determine… Read more »
We still have a choice today: nonviolent coexistence or violent coannihilation. We must move past indecision to action. We must find new ways to speak for peace in Vietnam and justice throughout the developing world, a world that borders on our doors. If we do not act, we shall surely be dragged down the long, dark, and shameful corridors of time reserved for those who possess power without compassion, might without morality, and strength without sight. Now let us begin. Now let us rededicate ourselves to the long and bitter, but beautiful, struggle for a new world. This is the calling of the sons of God, and our brothers wait eagerly for our response. Shall we say the odds are too great? Shall we tell them the struggle is too hard? Will our message be that the forces of American life militate against their arrival as full men, and we… Read more »
YOU put a three paragraph quote in your reply to me that presents AS IF from me – but is drawing what I said into your own take and summarising in terms I would not write or speak. I see the the primary error by which hate recycles to ensure long bitter struggle shall EVER be the subjection of the mind to its hidden master. Now it MAY be that phrasing in different terms may find some agreement – for being the true of who you are is in itself NOT a long and bitter struggle – but it may persist long through challenging experience of denial and temptation to embitterment without taking the bait. Don’t take the bait! Recruiting propaganda is all very well – but that is what it is if it doesn’t honour the (freedom of choice of the) other. If you’ve already been recruited – you… Read more »
Thank you for your response, as usual it is both thoughtful and thought provoking. I’m not sure that you “grabbed the nettle” of our seeming difference, though – the statement “I don’t seek to ‘organise’ collectively because there is no way to make a system of being true to ourselves” – so do we rule out a priori the trying and possible failure of “the long and bitter, but beautiful, struggle for a new world?” No, and not trying is not an option. It is a form of complicity. The world we want, the world organised around the principle of “being true to ourselves” cannot emerge spontaneously by some ‘Hundredth Monkey’ principle – no matter how high we elevate our collective conscious awareness. Somehow, we are going to have to co-create it by organising in “nonviolent cooperation”. If that organisation is doomed to ‘corporate capture’ and ‘recuperation’ – as social… Read more »
‘There is no path to peace, the path is peace’. I join with that. If a long and bitter path to a better world means peace to you – who am I to argue with your choice? While your means embodies the end – you have a better world to share as you find opportunity and willingness to share it. Living the life you have is not passive and nor is is ‘trying’. ‘Trying’ is often used to put a gap between peace and the path to peace and fill it with coercion, struggle and exhaustion. However, ‘trying’ can be the active willingness to unfold a desire that moves you. If you uncover an integrity and stand in it – you have the life that knows and shares it. This is not passive. But when peace is lost to a violation used to generate a sense of righteous vendetta –… Read more »
I’d say that broadly, we have a consensus, perhaps even a synthesis. P.S. If you really believe that “I cant get this across because the mind ONLY thinks in terms of separation” – perhaps you should study Thich Nhat Hanh. The true nature of mind is non-dual.
https://www.lionsroar.com/thich-nhat-hanh/
The false or assertive nature of polarised mind operates AS IF true. But it only has its sense of existence in AS IF – which I can call narrative overlay. I was not meaning to judge you one way or another. No matter what anyone says or teaches it is YOU who realize the true of it. So the non duality of being does not attack or destroy or negate the polarities in mind – but it does re-purpose them from a segregative and separating sense of defence, struggle and loss, to a movement of reintegrative wholeness of being. Because this is the basis from which to live truly and truly live I don’t recommend ‘struggle in bitterness’ toward some ‘future state’ but rather restore the focus presently within the true movement of our being – which is not coercive upon us – though a coercive mind sees ONLY in… Read more »
I neglected to thank you – so thankyou for engaging.
I think the message is important but I am not keen on the moving graphics in the video myself… weakens the message by giving the impression of ‘mind control’ in my opinion. Showing my age perhaps?
The #standdownmrtrump hasn’t taken off in a big way, yet.
HOLD ON FOLKS ! The Tomahawk Cruise Missile Attack on Syria was an UTTER FAILURE ! 60 Missiles fired not 59 – See http://aviationweek.com/defense/pentagon-says-all-59-tomahawks-hit-syrian-targets 1 fell in the drink straight out of the tube ! 59 on their way to a Syrian Air Base – ALL 59 intercepted by Russian EWS & nice round number 36 set down harmlessly & 23 set down in & around the air base with NO DAMAGE to runways & only 2 old planes in for repair damaged. We all saw the drone footage released by the Russians. Russians did not want to embarrass the Americans by stopping all 59 but they didn’t allow the ones they did guide through to do any damage ! That’s what the World saw. THIS IS NOT A DAVID COPPERFIELD SHOW. US claimed the destroyed 20 Syrian Jets – obvious lie as we all saw that was not true.… Read more »
“59 on their way to a Syrian Air Base – ALL 59 intercepted by Russian EWS & nice round number 36 set down harmlessly & 23 set down in & around the air base with NO DAMAGE to runways & only 2 old planes in for repair damaged. ”
Have you any hard evidence to back this up please? I have read this theory a lot but not seen a Russian statement or any evidence to back it up. It may very well turn out to be correct but as far as I see see it’s still a theory, a lot is going on behind the scenes including this interesting reported release which possibly hints EWS was used.
http://theduran.com/russia-claims-this-bomb-can-destroy-the-entire-us-navy/
Deductive Reasoning: “When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” Russia does not want war & needed to send a message to the Americans. Factually Russian EWS is simply generations ahead of US technology – Ref Khibiny & USS Donald Cook 10th April incident http://www.voltairenet.org/article185860.html Russia never seeks to embarrass the Americans in the hope of avoiding war & will not rub the US nose in it so don’t expect Russia to confirm it. Drone Footage showed very little damage to the airbase – indisputable fact Its utterly illogical to think the World’s Mightiest Superpower when sending such a public message to Assad failed to stop its airbase for more then 24hrs – in short the attack on Assad was pathetic if that was the real US capability unhindered ! US Lieutenant General Ben Hodges described Russian Military Technology as “Eye Watering” http://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2016/03/09/syria-russia-military-might-surprises-west.html US… Read more »
It’s clear Trump is no longer the president and perhaps never was. Pence is, a dyed-in-the-wool neocon that nobody voted for. So it’s business as usual in Washington, with an additional injection of psychotic delusion. Our survival as a species depends on how strong Putin and Xi are.
See you in hell folks.
