Out with Terrorism, In with China: CIA to Focus on Beijing โ€” report

The USโ€™ Central Intelligence Agency will switch is priorities, from terrorist activities, to opposing China, the Associated Press reports, citing a behind-closed-doors statement by deputy director, David Cohen.

More specifically, the CIA will not abandon its anti-terrorism efforts, but China will become the agencyโ€™s number one priority.

The CIA has already made internal shifts reportedly, transferring some of its counter-terrorism personnel to China-oriented assignments.

Western sanctions are preventing Russian inspectors from doing their job under the START treaty, Moscow says

Moscow has informed Washington of a โ€œtemporary withdrawalโ€ from the inspection regime under the START nuclear disarmament treaty, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on Monday. Citing treaty provisions for โ€œexceptional circumstances,โ€ Russia is saying the Western sanctions have prevented its inspectors from performing their duties, thus giving US inspectors an unfair advantage. Once the principle of parity and equality is restored, the inspections will resume, Russia sa...

โ€œFighting near a nuclear plant is dangerous,โ€ White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters aboard Air Force One on Monday, flying with Preside...

White House unveils Africa strategy

President Joe Biden is hoping to stand against Beijing with democracy, vaccines, and climate policy

The White House on Monday published its new strategy for Sub-Saharan Africa, which explicitly aims to counter Chinaโ€™s extensive investment on the continent and oppose Russiaโ€™s supposed โ€œharmful activitiesโ€ there.

The plan does not set out any concrete dollar amount that the US intends to spend in Africa. Rather, it outlines Washingtonโ€™s broader policy aims on the continent, some of which overlap with the $600 billion โ€˜Partnership for...

What happens when people awake to the deceit of Totalitarian-Lite posing as liberty and individualism (let alone democracy)?

Well, this piece is from the leading Establishment journal from the Deep-State-linked, Anglosphere, the Daily Telegraph:

โ€œThis is the summer before the storm. Make no mistake, with energy prices set to rise to unprecedented highs, we are approaching one of the biggest geopolitical earthquake in decades. The ensuing convulsions are likely to be of a far greater order of magnitude than those that followed the 2008 financial crash, which sparked protests culminating in the Occupy Movement and the Arab Spring โ€ฆ

โ€œCarnage has already arrived in the developing world, with power outages from Cuba to South Africa. Sri Lanka is just one of a cascade of low-income countries where leaders face being driven out of power in an ignominious blaze of petrol droughts and loan defaults.

โ€œBut the West is not going to escape this Armageddon. In fact, in many ways, it looks set to be its epicentre โ€“ and Britain, its Ground Zero. In Europe and America, a technocratic รฉlite system built on mythology and complacency is crumbling. Its founding fable โ€“ which prophesied the nation statesโ€™ glorious enmeshment in world government and supply chains โ€“ has metastasised into a parable of the perils of globalisation.

โ€œThis time, รฉlites cannot shirk responsibility for the consequences of their fatal errors โ€ฆ Put simply, the emperor has no clothes: The Establishment simply has no message for voters in the face of hardship. The only vision for the future it can conjure up is Net Zero โ€“ a dystopian agenda that takes the sacrificial politics of austerity and financialisation of the world economy to new heights. But it is a perfectly logical programme for an รฉlite that has become unhinged from the real worldโ€.

Yes, the western sphere has become so prone to a โ€˜head-spinningโ€™ disorientation (as was intended), through the constant rain of disinformation labels, stuck haphazardly across anything critical of the โ€˜uniform messagingโ€™, and by outrageous, obvious lying, that a majority in the western world has begun to question their own and surrounding levels of sanity.

In their bemusement, they have come to see the โ€˜messagingโ€™ of sacrificial politics and the financialisation of absolutely everything as โ€˜perfectly rationalโ€™. They have been rendered helpless, held immobile in a spiderโ€™s web. Bewitched.

โ€œWhen I use a word,โ€ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone,

โ€œit means just what I choose it to mean โ€” neither more nor less.โ€

โ€œThe question is,โ€ said Alice, โ€œwhether you can make words mean so many different things.โ€

โ€œThe question is,โ€ said Humpty Dumpty, โ€œwhich is to be master โ€“ โ€“ thatโ€™s all.โ€

(Lewis Carrollโ€™s Through the Looking Glass)

Yes, the Beastโ€™s Siren Call is for sacrificial politics to be levered down upon the people, whilst the horsemen of War and Pandemic all scream out that an apocalyptic hour approaches. We may call it a collective syndrome โ€“ similar to the Witch Craze of the 14thโ€“17th Centuries โ€“ but today, the phenomenon WB Yeats termed the โ€˜rough beastโ€™ with itsโ€™ gaze as โ€˜blank and pitiless as the sunโ€™, is better known simply as Ideology.

The word โ€˜ideologyโ€™ is often used as a synonym for political ideas, a corr...

Westerners Think They Are Free-Thinking Individualists and Itโ€™s Effing Adorable

The Times has published an article titled โ€œLady Gaga embodies everything China fears,โ€ subtitled โ€œThe singerโ€™s uncompromising individuality makes her a serious threat to the mass imposition of cultural conformity through censorship,โ€ and its contents are exactly as horrifyingly idiotic as you would imagine.

Here are the first three paragraphs of the article by Ben Macintyre, because if I had to read them then so do you:...
