While China builds roads, rail, pipelines, airports, seaports, and factories across Africa, the United States finds itself resigned to selling weapons and stirring up conflicts between and within African states to disrupt the rise of the continent independent of Western hegemony.

I'm sure that most Africans remember what colonialism did to their continent. Unless the US changes its approach, we're going to lose this struggle.

I Would Not Celebrate Just Yet

The "Jihadi rule" may be postponed, but the US, Israel, and NATO still intend to impose the yoke of THEIR rule on Syria. And it's likely to be just as bad. LOTS of massacres have taken place under the shield of Uncle Sam and his Israeli thug buddies.

Guns Are Not The Real Problem
They don't have guns in the UK, so they stab each other with knives:

The powers that be and their accomplices in Hollywood are pumping too much violence into our children's heads. THAT is the problem, and gun and knife violence are merely the symptoms.
You want to solve this problem? Then shut down Hollywood and the rest of the merchants of violence. What they are doing is NOT "free speech" or any other "protected" activity.

Bannon To The Rescue ???
Steve Bannon delivered a stump speech in Rome Saturday for “The Movement,” his new initiative to help nationalist parties across Europe win in elections for the European Union's parliament next spring.
Bannon announced the initiative in July, and it has found its most influential supporters in Italy, where an alliance of antiestablishment parties recently took power. The initiative has been personally endorsed by Italy’s most powerful politician, Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini of the right-wing Lega party, who made blocking immigration to Italy the center of his campaign.

Many citizens all over the world appear to be AGAINST immigration without limit, while "their" leaders are all for it. What gives? I thought these were all democracies.
There are too many humans, and too few resources to support them. What's the solution? If you have a good one, speak up now.
If you do not, I'm fairly certain the rich will impose their solution - cull the herd. And they'll probably enlist us to do the dirty work for them, like they always do.

Once Again, US Hates Peace
North and South Korea Steer Toward Peace Despite Heavy US Foot on the Brakes
“We had lived together for five thousand years but apart for just 70 years. Here, at this place today, I propose we move forward toward the big picture of peace in which the past 70-year-long hostility can be eradicated and we can become one again.” — South Korean President Moon Jae-in

I have no problem with peace between the peoples of Korea. If the two were unified, I'm certain the "south" would put the brakes on the "north".
Face it - we're NOT going to defeat China, and we should STOP using North Korea as a weapon against them. We gain NOTHING from this continuing war, except more money for the war profiteers.

Pope Compares Himself To Satan
Pope Francis has acknowledged that his reputation pales a bit compared to St. John Paul II — at least as far as Poles are concerned.
Greeting journalists Saturday en route to Lithuania, Francis was given a book about the former pope by Polish photographer Grzegorz Galazka. Receiving the large book with a beaming John Paul on the cover, Francis quipped: "(Pope John Paul II) was a saint, I am the devil."

Freudian slip, or just a joke?

Spying On The Press
Good news !!! Or maybe not:
The US government can monitor journalists under a foreign intelligence law that allows invasive spying and operates outside the traditional court system, according to newly released documents.
Targeting members of the press under the law, known as the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, requires approval from the Justice Department’s highest-ranking officials, the documents show.

I guess the people in Congress and at DOJ forgot to read these words:
US Constitution, 1st Amendment
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Wouldn't you say that using FISA this way appears to violate that amendment? I would.
Oh, wait ... the US Constitution was suspended on September 11, 2001, a state of affairs which has been renewed annually ever since then. "Our" constitution no longer applies.
