What part will your country play in World War III?

By Larry Romanoff, May 27, 2021

 

The true origins of the two World Wars have been deleted from all our history books and replaced with mythology. Neither War was started (or desired) by Germany, but both at the instigation of a group of European Zionist Jews with the stated intent of the total destruction of Germany. The documentation is overwhelming and the evidence undeniable. (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10) (11)

US Government Continues To Prove That It Is Evil Incarnate

US Government Continues To Prove That It Is Evil Incarnate




Unconstitutional Solitary Confinement in America
by Stephen Lendman

The Eighth Amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishments. Locking people in cages longterm with little or no human contact flagrantly violates the letter and spirit of the law. Yet it’s standard US prison practice nationwide.

America runs the world’s largest gulag system – around 2.4 million people domestically along with a covert global network of black sites, Guantanamo the tip of the iceberg.

The entire system is viciously punitive, mostly affecting people of color, half or more imprisoned for nonviolent crimes, over 500,000 for illicit drug related offenses.

Inhumane treatment is standard practice – brutalizing solitary confinement worst of all. In August, Yale Law School’s Arthur Liman Interest Program and the Association of State Correctional Administrators (ASCA) published a report titled “Time in Cell: The Liman-ASCA 2014 National Survey of Administrative Segregation in Prison.”

It updates information on an issue getting scant public attention – affecting as many as 100,000 inmates in America, excluding jails, juvenile facilities, undocumented immigrant incarcerations and military detentions.

Longterm isolation is torture by any standard – symptomatic of a brutal society treating its most vulnerable harshly. Prisoners are confined for 23 hours or longer on weekdays, 24 hours on weekends.

They’re isolated in tiny cells, often for arbitrary reasons. They’re less than 7 x 7 square feet in size – kept usually alone, at times with a second inmate.

Greatly restricted privileges can be curtailed or entirely stopped for alleged misbehavior or the whim of prison authorities or guards.

In many jurisdictions studied, inmates remained isolated for more than three years. Most parts of the country place no limit on how long it can continue.

Societies are best judged by how they treat children, the elderly, the infirm, their most disadvantaged and prisoners. America fails on all counts.

Human and civil rights don’t matter. US prisons are notoriously harsh. Isolated prisoners lack constructive activities. Visits are rare. Direct contact is denied – food delivered through cell door slots.

Social psychologist Hans Toch coined the term “isolation panic” – describing symptoms including hysteria, rage, total loss of control, emotional breakdown, regressive behavior, and self-mutilation.

Dozens of US “supermax” facilities incarcerate the so-called “worst of the worst.”

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) National Institute of Corrections calls them “special housing unit(s), maxi-maxi, maximum control facilit(ies), secured housing unit(s), intensive management unit(s), and administrative maximum penitentiar(ies),” describing them as follows:

“a highly restrictive, high-custody housing unit within a secure facility….that isolates inmates from the general prison population and from each other due to grievous crimes, repetitive assaultive or violent institutional behavior, the threat of escape or actual escape from high-custody facility(s), or inciting or threatening to incite disturbances in a correctional institution.”

Inmates are isolated longterm under constant closed-circuit TV surveillance. Alcatraz was the prototype until closed in 1963.

In 1861, it held Civil War prisoners. In 1868, it was officially designated a long-term detention facility for military prisoners.

After the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, it housed civilian prisoners – remaining a military facility until 1933 when it was transferred to the Bureau of Prisons.

Incarceration in America is notoriously harsh. Internment crushes the human spirit, mind and body. Physical abuse and extreme deprivation are common. Longterm isolation causes:

panic attacks;
lethargy;
insomnia;
nightmares;
dizziness;
irrational anger, at time uncontrollable;
confusion;
social withdrawal;
memory loss;
appetite loss;
delusions and hallucinations;
mutilations;
profound despair and hopelessness;
suicidal thoughts;
paranoia; 

and for many, a totally dysfunctional state and inability ever to live normally outside of confinement.

Prisoners are caged like animals. For some, it’s like being buried alive, causing irreversible trauma. Longterm isolation creates sociopaths, monsters.

Others become zombies. In 1995, the UN Human Rights Committee called long-term prison isolation incompatible with international standards.

Even the strongest willed break under the strain. Their surroundings overwhelm them. Prison life fosters recidivism.

In 1970, America’s prison population was less than 300,000. It exploded to eight times that size now – a prison/industrial complex built on ruthless get tough on crime policies, incarcerating the nation’s most unwanted, inflicting cruel and unusual punishments behind bars.

Discurso do Presidente da Rússia, Vladimir Putin, na manhã do dia 24 de Fevereiro de 2022

Discurso do Presidente da Rússia, Vladimir Putin, Tradução em português




Presidente da Rússia, Vladimir Putin: Cidadãos da Rússia, Amigos,

Considero ser necessário falar hoje, de novo, sobre os trágicos acontecimentos em Donbass e sobre os aspectos mais importantes de garantir a segurança da Rússia.

Começarei com o que disse no meu discurso de 21 de Fevereiro de 2022. Falei sobre as nossas maiores responsabilidades e preocupações e sobre as ameaças fundamentais que os irresponsáveis políticos ocidentais criaram à Rússia de forma continuada, com rudeza e sem cerimónias, de ano para ano. Refiro-me à expansão da NATO para Leste, que está a aproximar cada vez mais as suas infraestruturas militares da fronteira russa.

É um facto que, durante os últimos 30 anos, temos tentado pacientemente chegar a um acordo com os principais países NATO, relativamente aos princípios de uma segurança igual e indivisível, na Europa. Em resposta às nossas propostas, enfrentámos invariavelmente, ou engano cínico e mentiras, ou tentativas de pressão e de chantagem, enquanto a aliança do Atlântico Norte continuou a expandir-se, apesar dos nossos protestos e preocupações. A sua máquina militar está em movimento e, como disse, aproxima-se da nossa fronteira.

Porque é que isto está a acontecer? De onde veio esta forma insolente de falar que atinge o máximo do seu excepcionalismo, infalibilidade e permissividade? Qual é a explicação para esta atitude de desprezo e desdém pelos nossos interesses e exigências absolutamente legítimas?
