In a series of interviews conducted over the course of two years, airing this month on Showtime, Russian President Vladimir Putin told documentary filmmaker Oliver Stone in July 2015 that he believes the CIA was instrumental in the creation of Al Qaeda, and have used Islamic terrorist groups to destabilize Russia.

http://www.trunews.com/article/putin-claims-the-cia-created-al-qaeda-and-funded-terror

>STONE: Bill Casey, Director of the CIA under [President] Ronald Reagan [1981-1987], made it a special effort to excite the Muslims in the Caucasus’ in Central Asia against the Soviet Union. His plan was bigger than just to defeat the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, his plan was basically regime change in Soviet Union [sic].

>PUTIN: You see, those ideas are still alive. And when those problems in Chechnya and the Caucasus emerged, the Americans, unfortunately, supported those processes. We assumed the Cold War was over, that we had transparent relations, with the rest of the world, with Europe and the U.S. And we certainly counted on support, but instead, we witnessed the American Intelligence Services support terrorists. I’m going to say something very important, I believe. We had a very confident opinion back then, that our American partners in words were talking about support to Russia, the need to cooperate, including fighting terrorism, but in reality they were using those terrorists to destabilize the internal political situation in Russia.

>STONE: The U.S. support was covert, you say you have evidence they that were supporting the Chechen’s?

>PUTIN: Of course. But as to information and political support, that was evident to everyone, no proof is necessary. It was done publicly.

Isn't this like common knowledge? I did a thesis on it and the CIA straight up admitted it on several occasions during the Iraq war

this aint news.
we all know the CIA created Al Quaeda and similar islamic groups as a hard counter to communist ideology and influence in the middle east

(and has continued to use islamic groups as proxies as recently as the infamous "syrian rebels" everyone wanted to give weapons to)

>The U.S. Senate voted overwhelmingly on Thursday for legislation to impose new sanctions on Iran and Russia, and force President Donald Trump to get Congress' approval before easing any existing sanctions on Russia.

>The 100-member Senate backed the measure by a margin of 98-2.

>Republican Senator Rand Paul and Bernie Sanders, an independent who caucuses with the Democrats, were the only two "no" votes.

>The bill includes new sanctions on Iran over its ballistic missile program and other activities not related to the international nuclear agreement reached with the United States and other world powers.

>The Senate this week also added new sanctions punishing Russia for meddling in the 2016 U.S. election, annexation of Ukraine's Crimea region and support for Syria's government in that country's six-year-long civil war.

>Lawmakers also voted overwhelmingly earlier on Thursday to add provision to the bill allowing the U.S. space agency NASA to continue using Russian-made rocket engines and reaffirming the U.S. commitment to the NATO alliance.

>To become law, the legislation still must pass the House of Representatives and be signed by Trump. House aides said they expected the chamber would begin to debate the measure in the coming weeks, although they could not predict when it might face a final vote.

>Trump's secretary of state, Rex Tillerson, had questioned the legislation in testimony in the House of Representatives on Wednesday.

>"I would urge Congress to ensure any legislation allows the president to have the flexibility to adjust sanctions to meet the needs of what is always an evolving diplomatic situation," he told the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

Retaliation by ‘black power’ dean, evidence destroyed

A state appeals court upheld a jury verdict of nearly $5 million – three-quarters of that punitive damages – against an historically black college for discriminating against a white employee.

One of its many sins that were meticulously laid out by the court? Deleting incriminating emails from the senior official who targeted the white employee.

Beverly Wilkins, a white woman from a poor family, steadily rose through the ranks of Missouri’s Harris-Stowe State University, from adjunct to full-time instructor (off the tenure track). She had regular contract renewals for eight years and “excellent reviews” within her majority-black Teacher Education Department, according to the appeals court’s summary.

When Latisha Smith was temporarily made co-chair of the department, “a faculty member” complained to top university officials that Smith had “repeatedly proclaimed her belief in ‘black power'” and her “flagrant prejudice should not be tolerated or accepted.” One of those officials told the complainer to drop it or any chance at tenure “would be jeopardized.”

Smith was later made dean, becoming Wilkins’ supervisor, and she apparently exacted her revenge by putting Wilkins’ name on a termination list as part of a budget-neutral “reorganization” that saw two faculty members dumped and their positions rehired later.

Harris-Stowe is required by its own policies to terminate non-adjunct instructors with less seniority – two of which, both African Americans, had less than Wilkins – yet the university refused to tell her why she was dumped. Despite acknowledging that Wilkins had accused them of race discrimination, the university never investigated her claims, which also violated its own rules.

Though Wilkins was initially allowed to finish teaching her summer course, her students asked if she was getting fired, and she acknowledged to them her daughter was an attorney.

The university fired her a week later and told her to leave campus immediately, for “inappropriate activities” it refused to detail yet put in her permanent employment file.

Officials testified that they heard Wilkins was telling students she would sue the university and “impede” its accreditation process, yet they never identified students making these allegations nor investigated “to discover the truth of these claims,” again contrary to its own policies, the court’s summary reads.

“In this period of budget cutting” when Harris-Stowe was trying to plug a fiscal hole, it quickly hired two black professors to replace Wilkins, costing the school an extra $23,000. One was explicitly described as “black” in an official’s email proposing her for the position.

After Wilkins sued for discrimination and retaliation and the trial court ordered the university to preserve Smith’s email account, its board deleted her email account. The judge punished the school by deeming “admitted” that Smith had said she wanted to make the department “blacker” and recommended Wilkins’ termination.

The jury was apparently affected by Wilkins’ testimony that after she was fired, a university official “personally escorted” her to her cubicle, “rifled” through her files and “ripped pictures off the wall,” and refused to explain the rationale for her firing.

The same treatment had been given to a professor who had lied about “a previous child-molestation conviction.” Wilkins was never able to find education work in the St. Louis area that was not only related to her position at Harris-Stowe, but would not involve substantially longer hours and much higher stress levels.

Much of the ruling is highly technical, regarding the trial judge’s jury instructions and the appeals court’s jurisdiction.
>>
Courthouse News Service reports that the university alleged the trial court was wrong to: let the jury allow “future damages,” let Wilkins cite “an irrelevant state law,” allow a “grossly excessive” award for compensatory damages, and allow the jury to consider punitive damages and then not overturn its award.

The appeals court denied every objection. It strongly rebuked the university for calling Wilkins’ evidence of continuing emotional suffering “sparse” and claiming she could have gotten another education job, despite how the school sabotaged her employment prospects.

It was particularly contemptuous of the university’s claim that Wilkins herself has said she taught “primarily to help instruct future teachers,” not for the money:

We reject the Board’s contention that, because Wilkins was deeply motivated to work at HSSU to shape and guide future educators, she somehow is not entitled to damages as a result of the Board’s discriminatory and unlawful conduct. We instead find that Wilkins’s [sic] termination – from a position that was a significant component of her life – increased her intangible damages and did not limit the recovery of her economic losses.

The school said it was still reviewing the ruling.

I wonder if the college will end up paying.

>After $50 million and a congressional contest bigger than some presidential primaries, the special election in Georgia’s 6th District to replace Rep. Tom Price ended up where it began, with the House seat still in Republican hands and national Democrats still looking for a way to turn the resistance to Donald Trump into a victory at the polls.

Fully surprised there isn't a single thread on /news/ about any of these elections, let alone GA's 6th.

But then again, this is /news/, so I can guess why. :)

>WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court agreed Monday to hear a potential landmark case that addresses how far lawmakers can go in choosing their voters, rather than the other way around.

>Venturing into what one justice recently called the "always unsavory" process of drawing election districts for partisan advantage, the court will try to set a standard — something it has failed to do in the past.

>The case under review comes from Wisconsin, but about one-third of the maps drawn for Congress and state legislatures could be affected by the justices' ruling. Similar cases are pending in North Carolina and Maryland.

>The issue is reaching the high court at a time when both Republicans and Democrats have improved the art of drawing congressional and legislative maps to entrench themselves in office for a decade at a time. Computer software increasingly helps them create safe districts for their most conservative and liberal candidates, whose success invariably leads to more partisan gridlock in government.

>“Partisan gerrymandering of this kind is worse now than at any time in recent memory," said Paul Smith of the Campaign Legal Center, who will argue the case next fall. "The Supreme Court has the opportunity to ensure the maps in Wisconsin are drawn fairly, and further, has the opportunity to create ground rules that safeguard every citizen’s right to freely choose their representatives.”

>The court recently struck down some congressional and state legislative districts in North Carolina because they used voters' racial composition to maximize Republicans' political advantage. The court has ruled similarly on Virginia and Alabama racial redistricting plans.

>Now, however, the Wisconsin case will confront the high court with raw politics, not race. The state is one of several battlegrounds where Republicans and Democrats fought to a virtual draw in last year's presidential election, but where Republicans enjoy election districts that have given them a nearly 2-to-1 advantage in the state Assembly.

>The situation is similar in Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia, where lines drawn by Republicans have given the GOP the lion's share of the seats in Congress and state legislatures. North Carolina's congressional delegation tilts 10-3 Republican. Michigan's state Senate has 27 Republicans, 11 Democrats. In Virginia, where President Trump lost handily, Republicans have 66 of 100 seats in the House of Delegates.

>Democrats do likewise where they control the line-drawing process, such as in Illinois, Maryland and Massachusetts. But they have all the levers of power in just six states; Republicans control 25 states, with 197 of the 435 seats in the House of Representatives.

>As a result, congressional lines have become ever more partisan in recent years. In 2012, Republicans won 53% of the vote but 72% of the House seats in states where they drew the lines. Democrats won 56% of the vote but 71% of the seats where they controlled the process.

>A federal district court in Wisconsin ruled 2-1 in November that election districts drawn by Republicans discriminated against Democratic voters "by impeding their ability to translate their votes into legislative seats." It demanded that the legislature draw new district lines by this November.

>The state asked the Supreme Court to block that requirement on the assumption that the justices would hear its appeal in the 2017 term, which begins in October. And on Monday, the court ruled narrowly, 5-4, that the state does not have to redraw its maps until the case is decided. The court's four liberal justices dissented from that order.
>>
>In three landmark cases from 1962, 1986 and 2004, the high court has retained a role for itself to review partisan gerrymandering but has never defined how much is too much. In the last case, four justices sought to curtail that role by declaring it a political question outside their jurisdiction. But Justice Anthony Kennedy, 80, would not go that far; he may be the swing vote in the new case — if he doesn't retire over the summer.

>Two years ago, the court ruled that states can try to remove partisan politics from the process by creating commissions to take the job away from legislators. Kennedy joined in that narrow ruling by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who noted in her opinion that Kennedy previously labeled partisan gerrymanders "incompatible with democratic principles."

>Even justices who favor giving lawmakers discretion to draw district lines hold their noses when it comes to how they do it.

>"Partisan gerrymandering is always unsavory," Justice Samuel Alito wrote in a dissent from the ruling against North Carolina's use of race. But "while some might find it distasteful, our prior decisions have made clear that a jurisdiction may engage in constitutional political gerrymandering."

>What's different this time from past Supreme Court clashes is the existence of data-driven models to measure election results against other factors. One such standard — dubbed the "efficiency gap" — counts the number of "wasted" votes for winning candidates in districts purposely packed with the opposition party's voters, as well as for losing candidates in districts where those voters were purposely scattered.

Election districts ought to be based on country and city borders and major roads and streets within large cities.

Seems like a simple enough solution to me, that would help or hinder all political parties equally.

Russia is planning a military exercise involving 100,000 soldiers after NATO simulated a mock defense from an invasion through the Baltic's

http://www.trunews.com/article/russia-plans-mega-drill-after-nato-simulates-invasion

(VERO BEACH, FL) The upcoming drill, which has been held jointly with Belarus every four years starting in 1973, will begin in September and is nicknamed Exercise Zapad 2017. During the 9th edition of this joint military exercise, a defense will be simulated by the Russian high command to repel a mock invasion of Belarus by NATO.

Historically the drill has involved a scenario where a full-scale conflict between the West and Russia has broken out, and previous iterations have even included simulated nuclear responses on European cities. Ahead of this drill, Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges, Commander of all U.S. Army units in Europe (USAEUR), announced Friday that an additional 600 troops will be deployed across the Baltic States for the duration of Zagad 2017, bringing the number of NATO forces currently in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland to approximately 5,100.

Hodges told Reuters that the Pentagon is worried about possible Russian aggression during the Zapad exercise. "When (Russia) went into Crimea, that was against the backdrop of an exercise. When they went into Georgia, that was an exercise", Lt. Gen. Hodges said during a NATO exercise in Poland. "Their history is full of examples where they don't live up to any treaties ... They routinely violate those things.”

"We are all working hard to be at the highest levels of readiness during exercises like this,” Lt. Gen. Hodges said. The exercise Lt. Gen. Hodges was in attendance for in Poland was part of a series of NATO operations including Saber Strike and Baltic Operations (BALTOPS), which run throughout June, and are aimed at deterring the alleged “Russian Threat.”

This is at a press conference in Kiev said the former commander of the Battalion "Donbass" Anatoly Vinogrodsky.


"During the war, all normal states conduct internment of citizens of the aggressor country. This is normal practice, starting, in my opinion, with the Russo-Japanese War, including Canada, America, which interned the citizens of the aggressor country. We do not have this, spies, saboteurs, killers are moving across the territory of Ukraine, "says the ex-battalion commander. "You see this fine."

"Our state does not make any efforts to protect our country. We must protect it. Yes, we must block the work of Russian enterprises. Yes, we must complicate the receipt of profits by the aggressor country (Russia), because this profit is sent to the destruction of our independence. This is the only way we should approach this. We should not say that we are losing the jobs of Ukrainian workers. Yes, maybe we will lose the place of Ukrainian workers(russian federation give around 5-6 million ukrainians jobs). The state should engagethese people, it is his immediate duty to protect the independence of Ukraine - to deprive the country of the aggressor of financing. This is our main task, " Vinogrodsky said in russian language.

On top of that they keep giving non-English sources under the assumption that we'll just believe what they say the source says. There was another anti-UKR thread where the article was clearly different from what the OP summary was about, and you didn't even need google translate to confirm, it was literally in the link text.

As to what this former commander (of a militia unit no less) said, he's technically not wrong. During times of war, nations are allowed to detain foreign nationals of countries they are at war with. However, normally this is done on a case by case basis (not unlike normal criminal proceedings), and practically this is limited to the merchant marine or individuals in sensitive positions or industries. Blanket detention is not normal, and has generally been considered a mistake: in US legal history, the only modern instance of this (Japanese Americans during WWII) it was found to be totally pointless and ultimately cost the US government economically (in both facility maintenance at the time and reparations after the fact) and politically, as it set a dangerous precedent that idiots still cite to this day.

People (and I use that term here in the broadest sense…) stand around laughing and filming with their cellphones while watching this woman set a house on fire that has people inside, then after the house is a raging inferno, a few try and fail to save the guy inside.

But when the cops arrive and ask who murdered the guy by burning him alive, nobody seems to know (despite them all clearly knowing who the murderer is).

Snitches get stitches. Think of it this way, if the whole town is willing to watch a woman burn a man alive in his own home, do you think they are going to protect you if you turn her in? Best to keep your head low and not make yourself a target, as sad as that is. At least the video was leaked so they know who did it, that is more then most of these cases.

>A teenage Muslim girl killed by a bat-wielding motorist near a Virginia mosque was an apparent victim of "road rage" and her death is not being investigated as a hate crime, police said on Monday.

>Nabra Hassanen, 17, was attacked early on Sunday in Sterling, Virginia, about 30 miles (50 km) west of Washington, after attending late-night prayers for the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, when many Muslims fast from dawn until sunset.

>Darwin Martinez Torres, 22, of Sterling, has been arrested and charged with murder in the incident that began with a road dispute with a boy on a bicycle who was among a group of teenagers that included Hassanen, Fairfax County police spokeswoman Julie Parker said.

>"It appears that the suspect became so enraged over this traffic argument that it escalated into deadly violence," she told a news conference.

Wind Blows Car Door Shut with Baby Inside. Mom Calls 911 for Help, is Ticketed for Child Abuse

Omaha, Nebraska: A woman taking her niece out of the SUV on Tuesday afternoon was shocked when the wind blew the door shut with her keys and the child inside. The car locked. The aunt, the girl’s mom and two other relatives frantically tried to get the door open using a hanger and screwdriver, and when they couldn’t, they called 911. The cops arrived, broke the window, and got the child out, safe and sound.

Then they ticketed the mom on suspicion of child abuse by neglect.

As The Omaha World-Herald reports:

“Lt. Darci Tierney, a police spokeswoman, said the ticket was not an overreaction by the officer who responded to the 911 call.

“We make decisions in the moment with all the information we have available,’’ she said. “This can be a super dangerous situation. People die in these circumstances.”

That is not true. Children die when they are forgotten in cars, not when they are about to be taken out of cars, the wind slams the door shut, and the family immediately does everything humanly possible to get the door open quickly. That includes calling cops who turn out to be so clueless, cruel or crazy they treat the incident like child abuse.

The girl, just shy of 2, was in the car for about 15 minutes. It was a 93-degree day, and 97 degrees in the un-air-conditioned car. The girl appeared warm to the paramedic — um, of course she’d be warm — so she was taken to the local hospital. She was fine.

The wind, by the way, was gusting up to 40 miles an hour, something that must have been pretty obvious.

To add insult to non-injury, Lt. Tierney is also quoted as reminding people that in a situation like this one,“Don’t be afraid to call 911 for help.”

Yeah, and a defense lawyer.

What does /pol/ think to this article from November last year? It certainly looks genuine.

This is dynamite if it's true. The people who were incinerated in the tower block fire were MURDERED by a mafia of local councellers and KCTMO.

(KCTMO is Kensington and Chelsea Tennants Management Organisation - the people who managed the tower block maintenance and repairs).

https://grenfellactiongroup.wordpress.com/2016/11/20/kctmo-playing-with-fire/


"It is a truly terrifying thought but the Grenfell Action Group firmly believe that only a catastrophic event will expose the ineptitude and incompetence of our landlord, the KCTMO, and bring an end to the dangerous living conditions and neglect of health and safety legislation that they inflict upon their tenants and leaseholders. We believe that the KCTMO are an evil, unprincipled, mini-mafia who have no business to be charged with the responsibility of looking after the every day management of large scale social housing estates and that their sordid collusion with the RBKC Council is a recipe for a future major disaster.
It is our conviction that a serious fire in a tower block or similar high density residential property is the most likely reason that those who wield power at the KCTMO will be found out and brought to justice!"


Also fire brigade find 42 bodies in one room:-

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today announced that the National Security Council (NSC) on May 23, 2017, informed it by letter that the materials regarding the unmasking by Obama National Security Advisor Susan Rice of “the identities of any U.S. citizens associated with the Trump presidential campaign or transition team” have been removed to the Obama Library.

The NSC will not fulfill an April 4 Judicial Watch request for records regarding information relating to people “who were identified pursuant to intelligence collection activities.”

The agency also informed Judicial Watch that it would not turn over communications with any Intelligence Community member or agency concerning the alleged Russian involvement in the 2016 presidential election; the hacking of DNC computers; or the suspected communications between Russia and Trump campaign/transition officials. Specifically, the NSC told Judicial Watch:

"Documents from the Obama administration have been transferred to the Barack Obama Presidential Library. You may send your request to the Obama Library. However, you should be aware that under the Presidential Records Act, Presidential records remain closed to the public for five years after an administration has left office."

Judicial Watch has left a public statement in this youtube video, and are considering legal options in what they view as grossly corrupt practice:

If nobody interesting was spied on Conservatives will just find another conspiracy
If anyone interesting was spied on Conservatives will automatically use that as fodder to say Russia collusion is a hoax because of circular logic:

1.) If a call was wiretapped, that's evidence Obama was out to get Trump's campaign.

2.) If Obama was out to get Trump's campaign, the investigation into collusion with Russian government officials is just a cover story.

3.) If the warrant for a wiretap was issued because of said fake investigation, the only other likely explanation is Obama was out to get the Trump campaign.

They're starting with an unfalsifiable assumption that collusion with Russia couldn't have been a legitimate reason for any investigation.

tl;dr: whatever is found or not found, expect
>ITS A CONSPIRACY!!

>Japan's lawmakers have passed a controversial bill allowing authorities to target terror conspiracies.

>PM Shinzo Abe's ruling bloc pushed it through the upper house early on Thursday, despite vocal opposition.

>The government argues the law is needed to improve security ahead of the 2020 Olympics, and to comply with a UN agreement Japan has signed.

>But critics say it weakens civil liberties and could be abused to monitor and target innocent citizens.

>The law has sparked protests, including one on Wednesday night outside the parliament building which was attended by thousands of demonstrators.

Yeah, it's pretty unfair. Under the new law driving a boat in a boat race without a license is considered "terrorism." Also people who go to the same organizations as people who are terrorists are considered terrorists themselves.
