Dear Mr. President Putin,

Please accept our apologies on behalf of a great many people here in the Netherlands for our Government and our Media. The facts concerning MH17 are twisted to defame you and your country.

We are powerless onlookers, as we witness how the Western Nations, led by the United States, accuse Russia of crimes they commit themselves more than anybody else. We reject the double standards that are used for Russia and the West. In our societies, sufficient evidence is required for a conviction. The way you and your Nation are convicted for ‘crimes’ without evidence, is ruthless and despicable.

You have saved us from a conflict in Syria that could have escalated into a World War. The mass killing of innocent Syrian civilians through gassing by ‘Al-­‐Qaeda’ terrorists, trained and armed by the US and paid for by Saudi Arabia, was blamed on Assad. In doing so, the West hoped public opinion would turn against Assad, paving the way for an attack on Syria.

Not long after this, Western forces have built up, trained and armed an ‘opposition’ in the Ukraine, to prepare a coup against the legitimate Government in Kiev. The putschists taking over were quickly recognized by Western Governments. They were provided with loans from our tax money to prop their new Government up.

The people of the Crimea did not agree with this and showed this with peaceful demonstrations. Anonymous snipers and violence by Ukrainian troops turned these demonstrations into demands for independence from Kiev. Whether you support these separatist movements is immaterial, considering the blatant Imperialism of the West.

Russia is wrongly accused, without evidence or investigation, of delivering the weapons systems that allegedly brought down MH17. For this reason Western Governments claim they have a right to economically pressure Russia.

We, awake citizens of the West, who see the lies and machinations of our Governments, wish to offer you our apologies for what is done in our name. It’s unfortunately true, that our media have lost all independence and are just mouthpieces for the Powers that Be.

Because of this, Western people tend to have a warped view of reality and are unable to hold their politicians to account.

Our hopes are focused on your wisdom. We want Peace. We see that Western Governments do not serve the people but are working towards a New World Order. The destruction of sovereign nations and the killing of millions of innocent people is, seemingly, a price worth paying for them, to achieve this goal.

We, the people of the Netherlands, want Peace and Justice, also for and with Russia.
We hope to make clear that the Dutch Government speaks for itself only. We pray our efforts will help to diffuse the rising tensions between our Nations.

Sincerely,

Professor Cees Hamelink

Veterans Today Editors Note:

[ Editor’s note:  We are moving now to try to have native language readers helping us to not miss gems like this in their national media, as it is very important to get efforts like these publicized as quickly as possible.

What these Dutch Intellectuals have done is given us a template for others to follow.

If we are to build up a cross-border network, we must first seek out and learn more about their opposition forces, so we can get acquainted with each other to explore ways to leverage our efforts.

We also want to eliminate as much duplication of effort as possible, in terms of nailing down how the elites are trying to scam us with all of these destabilization programs.

We can save a lot of time reinventing the wheel if we can learn quickly of a proven template being available to be adapted from one country to another. There are all kinds of things we can do to help even a small group get bigger that are easy and inexpensive to do.

The most obvious one for here in the US is to have our readers email this letter to the Dutch embassy in DC and also their closest consulate, and tell them you whole-heartedly support it, and ask when the Dutch government is going to get off its knees to the major power manipulators.

These embassies will be reporting back home at the end of each day on how much traffic they are getting, because that is their job. This allows us to use the communication structures we have in place now and respond quickly to try to push a story like this into mass media for more exposure.

The breakthrough the Dutch have given us is to begin using the obvious link that all of these destabilization efforts have been an offense by elites in Western governments for reasons they do not think we will agree with, hence they have cut our approval out of the process. Instead of lots of fragmented efforts with limited and evaporating effect, they can all be rolled into one big fist to pound back with.

The bridge we have to get over now is to not have our spreading the news around be the end of our efforts. We have to create a mass action capability to take us up to the next level of having more influence… Jim W. Dean ]

“The balance of power has been changing. There are confrontations, economic powers emerging and consolidating and cooperating … The world is becoming both global and interdependent and needs probably different layers in that safety net.” – Christine Lagarde

With so much happening over the summer on the geopolitical front, including increasing social unrest around the world, it’s important to look in again on the International Monetary Fund’s 2010 Quota and Governance Reforms. Obviously the United States is still delaying the required congressional approval to enact the legislation in support of the reforms.

The G20 countries have collectively given the American congress until the end of this year to pass the legislation, which is supported by the countries listed below as well as the American Executive Branch and the Treasury. Earlier this year the reforms were attached to the aid package for Ukraine. The IMF reforms and IRS proposed rule change were packaged together and became part of the aid bill, only to be dropped later so the aid bill for Ukraine could be passed.

The IRS rule change would have limited freedom of speech in regards to the political activities of non-profit organizations. The Koch brothers, who presumably would not have benefited from this rule change, bargained that the Ukraine aid package would be passed, along with the IMF reforms, as long as the IRS rule change was removed from the bill. For whatever reason, the Democrats refused to separate the IMF reforms and IRS rule change, but the aid package was ultimately passed.

This tells us a few very important things.

First, the Koch brothers are aggressively supporting Republican candidates in this years congressional elections which are to take place on November 4th. The IRS rule change would have severely hampered their attempts at maintaining and growing political influence. Is it possible that international banking interests, represented in the form of the Bank for International Settlements, is attempting to strip political influence away from American business interests?

Second, neither the Koch brothers, nor the republicans, are against the IMF reforms. They are only against the IRS rule change which has been attached with the IMF reforms on every bill that is written. It is perhaps a requirement of the international banking interests that IMF reform and a weakening of internal political power of each country are part and parcel of the same game plan.

Thirdly, given that the Executive Branch and the U.S. Treasury, being the representation of the Democrats, and presumably along with the Republicans by way of congressional representation, are all willing to enact the legislation supporting the IMF 2010 Reforms, it is highly likely that the reforms will be passed shortly after the November 4th elections, as demanded by the G20 countries.

Fourthly, the Koch brothers, who are likely the tip of the spear for a larger American industrial like-minded collective, are unwilling to give up the ability to influence national and local elections. This American industrial representation likely accepts the inevitability of the IMF Reforms and the restructuring of the global economic structure, including the dollars removal as the worlds primary reserve currency, but are unwilling to accept relinquishing their influence over American political power.

And somehow the Keystone XL pipeline is also bundled up in this mess. The Koch brothers are the largest foreign lease holders in the Canadian oil sands industry. Not to mention that they own and control the holding tanks and shipment processing facilities located at Hardisty, Alberta, which is the beginning of the Keystone pipeline. Obviously the Koch brothers will benefit greatly from the Keystone XL Pipeline, which is likely why the Democrats are holding up its approval – IRS rule change for pipeline approval. It’s politics American style.

With the fast approaching restructuring of the global economy it is imperative for American business interests to close and secure as many resource deals around the world as possible. If one looks closely enough behind the curtain of media propaganda, it is easy to see the resource security and allocation taking place in all the flash points around the world, from natural gas in Europe to oil in Iraq. Where resources are not sold and paid for in dollars the American interests will have less bargaining leverage.

And for an American economy not blessed with the worlds primary reserve currency, business contracts and overall profitability will require as much leverage as possible.

Could the internal civil unrest taking place within America be the product of external banking interests? Could this unrest be used as leverage to get American industrial and business interests to agree with the larger mandate of economic reform and politically aligned mandates?

There is no doubt that the tools of propaganda and coercion are used on political groups and business conglomerates around the world in all countries. We need to seriously consider that the United States was used by the international banking interests and have had no more control over their own dollar and its machinations than the homeowner has over the interest rate on his mortgage.

And now that the banking interests no longer require the dollar for its broader goals, the American business and industrial interest will be brought to heel under the mandates of the Bank for International Settlements.

The Koch brothers could very well represent the last stand of American business and industrial sovereignty. Whatever sovereignty was left to begin with. Though I imagine they would sign that remaining sovereignty away for the right contract.

All you need to know about Israel, Gaza, and America in 10 minutes.

Well Well, what else is new?

Our drones and satellites can see single terrorist fighters inside little houses in villages but they made a mistake on 40,000 people?

August 14, 2014
The 40,000 Yazidis stranded on the mountain. That was the pretext for US military intervention in Iraq, as set out by President Obama last Thursday. The air war was commenced, and officials were talking up sending ground forces for “rescue” operations as recently as this afternoon.

But a funny thing happened when the US “advisers” got to Mount Sinjar. There weren’t 40,000 starving Yazidis stranded there. In fact, the indications are that there never were, and the Pentagon quickly dropped the “rescue” plan.

What happened? It turns out there were Yazidis already living on the top of the mountain, and while there were some refugees who fled up there, the humanitarian crisis was never what it was made out to be, and an influx of Kurdish PKK fighters from Syria quickly broke the overblown siege
The Pentagon is trying to manage the narrative by simply saying the rescue mission “appears unnecessary,” but the fact that it was used to start a US war remains, and the State Department is doubling down, trying to spin the lack of a crisis as vindication of the war.

“President said we’re going to break the siege of this mountain, and we broke that siege,” bragged Brett McGurk on Twitter, neglecting to mention that the siege was largely mythical in the first place. The Pentagon wasn’t nearly so daring as to take credit for solving a crisis that didn’t exist.
Instead, the Pentagon is combing the countryside of northwestern Iraq, where their former casus belli was before it so rudely evaporated, and looking for other crises that they might use as a justification for continuing and escalating the war.

Officials seem to be totally ignoring the obvious question: where the false story of a massive Yazidi crisis came from in the first place. In that regard, there are no easy answers, though the obvious beneficiaries of the new US war are the Kurdish Peshmerga, which are suddenly getting flooded with Western arms to fight ISIS, and eventually, to fuel their secession.

The administration just seems grateful that they got an excuse to start a war they’ve been chomping at the bit for, and even if the excuse didn’t exactly pan out, they’ll quickly find another.

President Obama won’t make any major announcements on immigration reform during his secretive mid-vacation trip back to Washington next week, the White House said Wednesday.
The president is expected to return to the White House on Sunday, but officials won’t say why Obama is taking the unusual, and costly, trip back to Washington. He’s expected to return to Martha’s Vineyard, where he’s been vacationing, on Tuesday.
Speculation has circled around whether Obama might make an announcement of executive actions he’s taking on immigration reform, or a surprise visit from a foreign leader.

But the White House is “not anticipating a major announcement on immigration when the president is in Washington,” spokesman Eric Schultz told reporters traveling with Obama in Massachusetts.
Schultz did say that Obama will be meeting with Vice President Biden while he’s back in Washington. And Obama will be without both press secretary Josh Earnest, who is out on paternity leave, and Schultz, Earnest’s top deputy, while in the nation’s capital.

“Eric Schultz is staying,” the spokesman quipped, dipping into the third person.

Adding more mystery to the topic, Schultz said the administration did not “anticipate any major significant news developments out of Washington those few days.”

But if the president is only coming back to meet with staff face-to-face, it could invite questions about wasting taxpayer dollars.

According to Air Force documents obtained Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, the roundtrip travel expenses for the president’s 2013 vacation to Martha’s Vineyard totaled $1,164,268.

A return to Washington merely to meet with staff would also seem to undercut assurances offered by the White House that the president is fully operational, even when vacationing away from the capital.

Asked about partisan criticism of the vacation last Friday, Schultz noted Obama “travels with a wide array of communications equipment, and we also travel with a staff that allows us to have robust operational capabilities.”

On August 11, 2014 the YouTube
publisher called “secureteam10”
claims to have received an email
sent through an anonymizing proxy
server, from a spoofed email address,
claiming to be from a current
employee at the European Space
Agency (ESA), which secureteam10
describes as a “Monumental find.”

Per the description, the emailed
attachments were un-doctored, raw
images recently taken by the Rosetta
space craft of Comet 67P, revealing
the true nature of the “space rock”.

Namely, that an outbuilding and a
disk-shaped object appear on the
unretouched version sent of this photo,
differing from the images officially
released.

These are compared with one another,
along with the alleged, decades-long,
“true” back story that motivated this
mission to capture images of this specific
“space rock” out of so many others, out
there.

The publishers of secureteam10 say,
“Stay tuned for updates as soon as we
get them!”
