Ambassador Craig Murray: Assange Never Met Manafort; the Guardian Is Publishing Blatant MI6 Lies
The right wing Ecuadorean government of President Moreno continues to churn out its production line of fake documents regarding Julian Assange, and channel them straight to MI6 mouthpiece Luke Harding of the Guardian.
Amazingly, more Ecuadorean Government documents have just been discovered for the Guardian, this time spy agency reports detailing visits of Paul Manafort and unspecified “Russians” to the Embassy. By a wonderful coincidence of timing, this is the day after Mueller announced that Manafort’s plea deal was over.
The problem with this latest fabrication is that Moreno had already released the visitor logs to the Mueller inquiry. Neither Manafort nor these “Russians” are in the visitor logs.
This is impossible. The visitor logs were not kept by Wikileaks, but by the very strict Ecuadorean security. Nobody was ever admitted without being entered in the logs. The procedure was very thorough. To go in, you had to submit your passport (no other type of document was accepted). A copy of your passport was taken and the passport details entered into the log. Your passport, along with your mobile phone and any other electronic equipment, was retained until you left, along with your bag and coat. I feature in the logs every time I visited.

By Whom Will You be Ruled: God or the Tyranny of Tech?
Civilization in all its magnificent complexity requires collaboration not only among family, friends and neighbors, but among strangers. That is possible only with a civilized people, which is to say a people that adheres to a universal moral code.
That code, in basic form, is this:
The code of civilized people allows harmonious and productive collaboration among total strangers, people who may live far from one another, speak different languages and worship different gods.
In addition to this code, the Christianized peoples of Europe — the people who created the greatest civilization the world has yet seen — added another rule, a rule that was never formulated as a rule but which was widely adopted by a process of emulation.
11. Be prepared to sacrifice your own interest for the good of others.
This last was the essential novelty that Christianity introduced into the relations among men, a rule exemplified by the master of it all, Jesus of Nazareth, who so the Church has always taught, "died for our sins." What that means, simply, is that Jesus underwent crucifixion as a necessary prelude to the miracle of resurrection, thereby showing sinful mankind that there really was a God in heaven into whose kingdom they might enter.
But today the Western nations have trashed Christ and thereby destroyed faith in the Christian moral code, including the notion of self-sacrifice for the good of the others. The media exist to lie as a means of plutocratic government control, not as a means to broadcast the truth. Words uttered in public, are seen by the elite as instruments to control the conduct of the proles, not as a means to communicate truth.
And indeed the views that deception is the primary use of language has now become almost universal. Mark Twain held that the essence of a joke is a lie badly told, a principle well exemplified by any episode of the Seinfeld sitcom. And the popularity of Seinfeld proves both how normal lying has become, and how little folks seem to care.
Theft may still, in principle, be deplored, yet there is a widespread belief that wealth is unfairly distributed and should be redistributed by the force of law, which is to say, a sort of collective theft justified on the basis of some political process.
As for adultery, its depiction is mainstream entertainment and hence a most powerful incitement to sexual covetousness.
As for coveting one's neighbor's ox or his ass, the average person may see as many as 5000 ads per day, a more potent stimulus to envy and unsatisfied material desire than seeing your neighbors ox over the fence.
Honor of parents is, of course, to be derided and indeed legally obstructed, since it results in adherence to out-dated, sexist, racist, misogynistic, homophobic, Islamophobic, you name it, deplorable ideas.
As for honoring God, forget it. The Christian God has been unmasked. He is that old, ignorant, vain, sadistic racist bastard, the Jewish god, Yahweh. No, the source of moral authority today is the academy. The professors of Women's studies, Gender studies, and of many other faculties beside, where upholders of the Christian tradition are as rare as the Great Auk. In today's Western university it is vastly more respectable to be an anti-white racist than an upholder of traditional Christian belief.
Hence my question. Which do you prefer: self control based on acceptance of Christian ideology, the traditional religion of the West; or external control, based on snitchery, brainwashing as education, and legally enforced political correctness? It is a choice between, on the one hand, self-control based in Christian faith, and, on the other hand, external control leading inevitably to a high-tech slave state, where freedom of thought must die and speech be controlled.
China, a great nation with a tradition of adherence to the words of the wise, and subservience to age and authority, has opted for a system of high-tech surveillance combined with reliance on millions of informers, a return to among the most horrendous features of Communist dictatorship. The West is clearly moving in the same direction: our emails are scanned for incriminating words and permanently recorded by intelligence agencies for later review, our conversations are overheard by Amazon's Alexa, or our Android cell phone, constantly urging us to initiate a conversation by saying "OK Google." Even lampposts in England now have ears, so morally degraded has become the home of Western freedom.
So will we abandon Western civilization, a civilization that it was the intention of Western globalists to spread throughout the world? Or will we succumb to a tech-based system of tyranny? In the Western World, the choice is still ours to make, or so it would be if people understood there was a decision to make.
That code, in basic form, is this:
| The Universal Moral Code: 1. Don't lie 2. Don't steal 3. Don't shag your neighbor's wife 4. Don't kill people
And, reinforcing the second and third commandments:
And, reinforcing those ideas:
6. Respect your parents (i.e., the conservatives who are the upholders of the moral tradition)
7. Honor the source of moral authority
8. Have no allegiance to any but the one true moral authority
9. Don't engage in idolatry, i.e., the worship of money, or celebrities, or any material thing including nature (Gaia) herself
10. Take one day each week to rest and to reflect on how well your conduct conforms to the code

The Globalist Migration Plan That Justin Trudeau Supports
Once there are no borders there will be no countries, and once there are no countries there will be no nations — No England for the English, no France for the French, no Germany for the Germans, no Canada for the Canadians. At that point, the UN and other global agencies will take control and you will have to say good-bye to democratic, local self-government.
You want a border to keep out hoards of people of an alien race, religion and culture? Forget it. Everyone, however poor, however ignorant, however prejudiced, however diseased, however anti-Christian, however anti-white, however anti-democratic they may be will be entitled to squat in your public space and demand welfare at your expense.

Thereason May's Plan for U.K. Military Dictatorship
Zero Hedge, November 20, 2018: The first time we heard about the British government's "Operation Temperer" was shortly after the dreadful terrorist explosion in Manchester in June 2017, when Prime Minister Theresa May declared “enough is enough”, and demanded a review of the UK's counter-terrorism strategy.
....David Cameron had opposed [the] controversial power because he didn't want the UK to appear like it had lost control and was imposing martial law.
Essentially, it is a martial law program that acts incrementally, rather than overtly. Once implemented, Temperer would be difficult to reverse. ...
...
Chief of Defense Staff General Sir Nick Carter said the army would "stand ready to help" in the event of a 'No Deal', adding that the army has around 1,200 troops on 24-hour standby which can deal with a range of operations and contingencies. And a further 10,000 military personnel are available to assist with an emergency at short notice.
"We make sensible contingency plans for all sort of eventualities whether it’s a terrorist attack, a tanker driver dispute or industrial action. ""At this stage I think people are confident there will be a deal, If there’s not one, we stand ready to help in any way we can."
When asked about the stockpiling of medicines, Sir Nick Carter said:
"We’re involved in thinking hard about what it might involve. We’ve not been asked to do anything specifically at this stage."
As Brandon Smith so ominously concluded: I believe the UK will be under martial law in a year's time. Unless the people of the UK do something NOW to assert their right to determine their own security, they will fall to a complete totalitarian framework. And, in the long run, they will only be helping the very globalists the Brexit movement in particular sought to fight against. They will do this by trampling the image of nationalism and sovereignty with the jackbooted philosophy of externalized security and government dependency, making globalism, the offered antithesis, look pleasant and tolerable in retrospect.
And in related news:
...
Overall, 14 million people in the UK are now living in poverty, a figure which translates into an entire fifth of the population. Four million of them are children, while, according to Professor Alston, 1.5 million people are destitute – that is, unable to afford the basic necessities of life.
And this is what the ruling class of the fifth largest economy in the world, a country that parades itself on the world stage as a pillar of democracy and human rights, considers progress.
The values responsible for creating such a grim social landscape are compatible with the 18th not 21st century. They are proof positive that the network of elite private schools – Eton, Harrow, Fettes College et al. – where those responsible for this human carnage are inculcated with the sense of entitlement and born to rule ethos that defines them, are Britain's hotbeds of extremism.
Professor Alston:
"British compassion for those who are suffering has been replaced by a punitive, mean-spirited, and often callous approach apparently designed to instill discipline where it is least useful, to impose a rigid order on the lives of those least capable of coping with today's world, and elevating the goal of enforcing blind compliance over a genuine concern to improve the well-being of those at the lowest levels of British society."
Monday, November 19, 2018
Quote of the Day, No. 496:
"Many will have seen the Spectator piece about the ‘forty hidden horrors’ of Brexit à la Theresa, and been genuinely shocked by the degree to which her “deal” makes the 1940 French surrender to Hitler seem an act of defiance by comparison."

Kevin MacDonald on the Pittsburgh Synagogue Massacre, Trump, and Nationalism
In the wake of the Pittsburgh Synagogue shootings, the long-running hysteria about Donald Trump promoting anti-Semitism, racism, and “White supremacy” has been intensified. It’s at the point now that it is morphing into an obvious attempt to shut down or at least pathologize public discussion of critical issues.
Particularly important are globalism and nationalism, and the role of the establishment—particularly the media—in shaping attitudes on these issues. The election of Donald Trump and the clear rise of nationalist politics and anti-immigration sentiment in Europe are causing extreme anxiety in establishment circles. And yet, these issues are central to the interests of all the citizens of Western countries.
An honest discussion is therefore imperative, but all too often, as in much of the EU, honest discussion is vilified and even threatened with legal sanctions (e.g., here, here, and here). What we have is a corrupt establishment desperately fighting to remain in power—an establishment that is out of touch with the interests and concerns of its native populations. We in the United States are threatened with a similar situation if present trends continue.

Famed Canadian Feminist: Twitter Is Fucking Bullshit
A Canadian feminist, Meghan Murphy, who founded the feminist blog and podcast Feminist Current in 2012, had tweeted in October:
A conclusion with which no reasonable person could possibly disagree. More specifically, Murphy stated, it is “fucking bullshit” that:
It is hard not to agree that the geniuses who run one of America's most important tech companies are either insane or intent on making America insane by destroying the possibility of rational discourse by outlawing basic facts and the rules of logic.
| “Men aren’t women tho,” and “How are transwomen not men? What is the difference between men and transwomen?” |
On Thursday, Murphy said on Twitter that she had been informed by Twitter that:
To which Murphy responded:
| “the language she had used violated their rules against hateful conduct.” |
This is fucking bullshit @twitter.
|
| I'm not allowed to say that men aren't women or ask questions about the notion of transgenderism at all anymore? That a multi billion dollar company is censoring BASIC FACTS and silencing people who ask questions about this dogma is INSANE.” |
But bring it on, we say. The sooner America goes totally stark raving bonkers and disappears down the plug-hole of history, the better.
Unfortunately, of course, the US will most likely take the rest of the West with it. As the America Sage, Rush Limbaugh, recently observed: The entire West is coasting on accumulated capital of previous generations, burning its inheritance in a bonfire.
More specifically, the Western nations are happily trashing Western civilization, you know, the rule of law, Christian ethics, and rationality. When those uncivilized opportunist nerds, the Zuck's, the Pichai's, the Musk's aided by the full force of the media and political class have entirely addled the brains of Americans and convinced everyone that lies trump truth and bullshit baffles brains, we will rediscover the wisdom of Samuel Johnson:

What is Going On With Canadian Oil
Zero Hedge, November 14, 2018: Yesterday we remarked that while the pain for US energy traders has been palpable, it is nothing compared to the mass hysteria taking place in Canada, where the price of Western Canada Select oil has collapsed just above $15 as far too much local production remains landlocked, and in desperate search of any buyer.
Today, none other than "world renowned commodity guru" Dennis Gartman - who correctly picked the exact moment to advise his clients to "short this rally" and is still short even as Marko Kolanovic has been repeatedly urging JPM clients to triple down on the S&P where he saw nothing but smooth sailing - picks up on this theme, and in his latest letter to clients expresses his shock at the collapse observed in local prices.
We excerpt from his latest letter below.
IF YOU THINK THAT WTI AND/OR BRENT CRUDES ARE CHEAP... then consider for a moment what is happening in Canada these days where Western Canada Select crude (WSC as it is always referred to) trades below $16/barrel or a stunning $43/barrel “discount” to WTI! WCS is a “heavy” crude type with an API of about 20 while WTI is a “light” crude with an API “gravity” rating near 40 and so by definition given the greater difficulty in refining WCS compared to WTI it has always sold at a discount to WTI. It had to; there had been little choice.

Poisoning Canadians for Profit
It has taken approximately fifty years to wean the majority of Canadians off the addictive, health damaging, life-shortening habit of cigarette smoking.
So how does the government of Canada deal with the producers of that addictive, health damaging, life shortening drug, marijuana? It legalizes them. At least a favored few of them.
why?
Look no further than the $35 billion in market cap accumulated by Canada's ten largest licensed pot growers. These are basically greenhouse operations, smaller in scale by far than, say, the Canadian greenhouse tomato, or cucumber industry, yet by virtue of a government license, worth almost infinitely more.
Here, with astonishing mildness, the Canadian Medical Association takes the government to task.

| Diane Kelsall Canadian Medical Association Journal: October 15, 2018: On Oct. 17, 2018, the government of Canada will launch a national, uncontrolled experiment in which the profits of cannabis producers and tax revenues are squarely pitched against the health of Canadians. When Bill C-45 comes into force in mid-October, access to recreational marijuana will be legal,1 making Canada one of a handful of countries to legalize recreational use of the drug. Given the known and unknown health hazards of cannabis,2,3 any increase in use of recreational cannabis after legalization, whether by adults or youth, should be viewed as a failure of this legislation. The government of Canada should commit to amending the act if cannabis use rises. Predictably, given the federal government’s stated commitment to pushing this legislation through, investment in cannabis firms has risen substantially over the past year in anticipation, and new producers, large and small, have been popping up across the country. Their goal is profit, and profit comes from sales — sales of a drug that, according to Health Canada, will cause a problem in nearly 1 in 3 adult users and an addiction in close to 1 in 10, with higher risks in youth.2 We cannot expect cannabis firms to restrict their growth ambitions or to have use reduction as a goal. Cannabis companies may initially focus on attracting current consumers from black-market sources, but eventually, to maintain or increase profits, new markets will be developed as is consistent with the usual behaviour of a for-profit company.4 Marketing efforts may include encouraging current users to increase their use or enticing a younger demographic. The track record for tobacco producers has not been encouraging in this regard, and it is unlikely that cannabis producers will behave differently. The provisions regarding promotion of cannabis were the subject of much debate as the bill wended its way through the legislative process. Although the act prohibits promotion to young people and marketing may not evoke a way of life that includes “glamour, recreation, excitement, vitality, risk or daring,” among other restrictions,1 there is plenty of leeway for cannabis companies to attract users. Promoting brand preference and providing “informational” materials are allowed in places where young people are not permitted by law, for example. And the decision by the federal government to legalize cannabis sends a clear message to Canadians that its use is acceptable. We are already seeing the rise of cannabis brands and can expect cannabis firms to promote their products to the full extent allowed under law — and possibly beyond. This past summer, cannabis companies were promoting their wares at music festivals and similar venues to ensure brand-awareness ahead of the legislation.5 Even the food and beverage industry is joining in with plans to augment their products with cannabis. Bill C-45 explicitly states that its purpose is to protect public health and safety, by keeping cannabis out of the hands of youth and enhancing public awareness of health risks associated with cannabis use.1 To achieve this will require a concerted effort by government at all levels. Analyzing the experiences of other jurisdictions that have legalized recreational cannabis should prove helpful,4 as will thoughtful reflection on Canada’s successes — or lack thereof — in tobacco and alcohol control. Many local and provincial governments have put regulations in place to restrict the use and distribution of cannabis, beyond the broad provisions in the federal legislation. And health authorities are working on campaigns to raise awareness of health and other risks, such as impaired driving, associated with cannabis use. But fundamentally, the federal government needs to take responsibility for the consequences of this controversial legislation. To that end, it must provide adequate funding for robust monitoring of cannabis use among all segments of society, especially among youth and other populations at particular risk. The anticipated windfall of tax revenue should fund research on harms related to use, as there are many unanswered questions about the short- and long-term implications of cannabis use.3 And finally, if use of cannabis increases, the federal government should have the courage to admit the legislation is flawed and amend the act. Canadians — and the world — will be watching. |
