    Hamza bin Laden: Saudi Arabia strips Osama Bin Laden's son of citizenship


    Royal decree to revoke senior al-Qaeda leader's citizenship made in November, kingdom announces

    Hamza bin Laden, the son of former al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, has been stripped of citizenship by Saudi Arabia.

    The country's interior ministry announced the move in a statement after the US state department said on Thursday it was offering a reward of up to $1m (£760,000) for information leading "to the identification or location in any country" of Hamza, calling him a key al-Qaeda leader.

    In the notice published in the kingdom's official gazette on Friday, the ministry said his citizenship was revoked via royal decree in November. There was no explanation why the order was only made public now.

    His exact whereabouts have been unknown for a number of years, though various reports have speculated he may be living in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria or Iran.

    Saudi-born Hamza is thought to be around 30 years old, and was named as a “specially designated global terrorist” by the US in January 2017. He has released audio and video messages calling for attacks against the US and its allies.

    House Democrats will take floor action to confront Ilham Omar’s latest Israel comments

    Pelosi and other senior Democrats are drafting a resolution to address the controversy, which ballooned over the weekend following a public clash between Omar and senior Jewish lawmakers.

    Omar’s remarks are just the latest in a series of comments she's made that many of her Democratic colleagues say are blatantly anti-Semitic and must be retracted.


    Rep. Juan Vargas (D-Calif.), who sits on the committee, wrote on Twitter that Omar should apologize for “hurtful anti-Semitic stereotypes.” “Questioning support for the U.S.-Israel relationship is unacceptable,” Vargas wrote.
    https://www.politico.com/story/2019/...ocrats-1201881




    So what did she say to trigger this latest condemnation from the globalists?

    At the weekend she said "I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is OK for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country,", according to the New York Times. She added, "I am told everyday that I am anti-American if I am not pro-Israel. I find that to be problematic and I am not alone. I just happen to be willing to speak up on it and open myself to attacks."





    Also, at the weekend at an official building or the Republican Party there was provocative material posted on the walls by staffers which portrayed Omar as a terrorist. But this has not received condemnation at all from the globalist politicians in Washington.

    Because, actually, it's a part of their cult.

    Ilham said the truth and I salute to her. Well done!
    Funny to see globalists become so nervous from simply the voice of one elected person who isn't bought by special interest groups and has courage to speak truth.

    BREAKING: Small IEDs found at Heathrow, City airports & Waterloo station, counter-terror probe launched
    https://www.rt.com/uk/453089-counter...robe-heathrow/



    Emmanuel Macron, the ardently Europhile president of France, now poses a greater threat to the future of the European Union than Brexit.
    His call for a “European renaissance” of deeper integration is a declaration of war on the EU’s arriviste nations and a call for the creation of an elite group of richer, Western, eurozone countries that would rule Brussels and be dominated in turn by Paris and Berlin.

    Those battle lines have been enthusiastically embraced by the likes of Hungarian PM Viktor Orban, in the middle of a sustained and controversial poster campaign of Brussels bashing, and Italy’s Matteo Salvini.

    Mr Macron has poured fuel on that combustible mix and risks a furious fightback from countries who reject his choice of “more Europe” or second class EU membership.

    The French president’s vision of a “multi-speed Europe” divided into “concentric circles”
    will be seen in the capitals of Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic as little more than a ploy to relegate them to a lower tier of the EU.

    Russia Could Develop Land-Based Kalibr-M Cruise Missile By End Of 2019: Reports
    https://southfront.org/russia-could-...-2019-reports/




    As the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty appears to be dead, more and more reports appear about a possible Russian response in the field of missile development in the new reality.

    On February 7, the Russian state news agency TASS reported citing a source that the land-based version of the sea-launched Kalibr cruise missile can be developed and enter into its serial production phase by the end of 2019.

    On February 23, TASS revealed that the land-based Kalibr cruise missile will be named the Kalibr-M and has a range of over 4,500 km.

    While the data provided by TASS has not been officially confirmed, it’s the fact that Russia is developing a land-based version of the Kalibr cruise missile. Following the US suspension of participation in the INF Treaty, Russian President Vladimir Putin publicly approved this move.

    Britain’s Secret War in Colombia
    https://jacobinmag.com/2018/11/uk-co...nterinsurgency




    In 2017 alone..... killings of social activists totalled 170 – an increase of 45 percent on 2016.

    For over half a century, a war against Colombian civilian life has been waged alongside the war against Colombia’s guerrilla insurgencies.
    Beginning in 1989, Britain sponsored this “dirty war” under the pretext of the war on drugs.
    Kept secret on the grounds of “national security,” British intervention did little in the way of reducing drug supply,
    yet sponsored political violence designed to promote Western capital interests.
    To this day, neither the British state nor public has addressed the consequences — nor, to a large degree, existence — of this chapter of British foreign policy.

    Trump Asks Germany, Japan To Pay For Being Occupied

    Under White House direction, the administration is drawing up demands that Germany, Japan and eventually any other country hosting U.S. troops pay the full price of American soldiers deployed on their soil -- plus 50 percent or more for the privilege of hosting them, according to a dozen administration officials and people briefed on the matter.
    ...
    Current and former administration officials briefed on the idea, who asked not to be identified discussing the program, describe it as far more advanced than is publicly known. As well as seeking more money, the administration wants to use it as a way to exert leverage on countries to do what the U.S. demands overseas.

    As evidence, they say officials at the Pentagon have been asked to calculate two formulas: One would determine how much money countries such as Germany ought to be asked to pay. The second would determine the discount those countries would get if their policies align closely with the U.S.

    Can the Neocons really try to demand that we stay in NATO countries that tell us to leave?
    Fine w/ me.... just as long as no body starts talking about 3-D chess. hahaha.
    to your second sentence... absolutely.
    Watch what happens when Erdo tells them to get out of Incirlik (after they crank-up the sanctions).
    Wait for it... it will become a belligerent occupation... claiming 'National Security/Global Security'.
    Jus like Iraq. Jus like al-Tanf. Wait for it.

    Perhaps but Turkey was never a "real" NATO member and the Neocons will find it harder to advocate for remaining in each country that orders us out.
    Also Trump will be able to claim that they aren't paying their fair share and we need to come home and stop paying for their defense. (especially when they stop the payments they already give us after ordering us out)

    Each country/scenario will be spun differently as this phenom grows.... but the common thread will be belligerence not contrition.
    Have you ever met a contrite neocon? One who apologizes? Says they were wrong? As RP so eloquently said '... who CORRECTS their mistakes.' ???
    The Empire will become the beast it truly is before this is over. Hope we live through it.

    I expect no contrition from the Neocons, I just hope they will be forced to remain silent as Trump withdraws our troops from the empire.
    Your feared outcome is all too possible though.

    Even Ron can be wrong, I'm pleased to admit my mistakes, there are many others
    that share that trait, though in general it is true.
