Die Staatsanwaltschaft Meiningen verfasste am 24.06.16 eine besondere Einstellungsverfügung, die aufgrund ihrer mehrseitigen Länge erwähnenswert ist.

Die Abgeordnete Petra Hinz hat ihr Bundestagsmandat bislang nicht niedergelegt, ein Ultimatum der SPD blieb wirkungslos. Wegen der Affäre um ihren gefälschten Lebenslauf haben in Essen mehrere Parteimitglieder nun offenbar Konsequenzen gezogen.

Reporter ohne Grenzen fordert den deutschen Bundestag gemeinsam mit zahlreichen nationalen und internationalen Medien, Verbänden und Menschenrechtsorganisationen auf, den Entwurf des BND-Gesetzes umgehend zu überarbeiten und ausländische Journalisten vor Überwachung zu schützen.

Marine AV-8B Harriers operating from USS Wasp (LHD-1) have struck ISIS targets Libya, two U.S. defense officials confirmed to USNI News on Wednesday.

Young people have grown up in the US knowing nothing but endless wars and a government, led by Nobel Peace Prize winner Barack Obama, which revels in its power for mass murder and its callous disregard for human life. In Clinton, the world faces an even more dangerous warmonger.

The second major problem with the new initiative in Libya by President Barack Obama is that it does not deal with Libya’s current fundamental problem — the fact that it has three contending governments, as well as many more independent armed contending militias. There is one government in Tobruk in the east, another in Tripoli, the former capital, and a third, backed by the United Nations, holed up also in Tripoli.

Earlier on Wednesday, terrorists organizations acknowledged the death of 64 of their members, including some of their leaders. on Tuesday, they acknowledged that 56 others were also killed in Aleppo battles.

Indications are that the most recent offensive by the Nusra Front-led rebels in northern Syria, aiming to relieve the siege of their half of Aleppo, has stalled, with a counter-offensive by the Syrian military launched overnight recovering considerable territory around the area, including two villages and a pair of key hilltops.

Under Article 9 of the Chicago Convention of 1949, to which Ukraine is a signatory, it is the responsibility of governments, in the event of armed conflict within their territory, to close the airspace above the conflict zone.
Not only did Ukraine fail to do this, Ukrainian air traffic control – whether through negligence or intention – directed MH17 to fly over Donbass where it met its terrible end.

“It was an unconventional war on Libya with the US Air Force and NATO allies providing air support and the ground troops being comprised of al-Qaeda fighters and other irregulars that were trained and armed by the US, but the Qataris, including Qatari command and control on the ground. There were Qatari regulars in uniforms that were commanders of the fighters that were documented as well as Qatari arms that were captured and displaced on the YouTube,” the journalist said.

Haftar, a CIA asset and proxy of Egyptian dictator General Abdel el-Sisi, lived in the U.S. for nearly twenty years, residing just outside Washington DC in Falls Church and Vienna, Virginia, in cozy proximity to his patron in Langley. He became a U.S. citizen, and is now a powerful warlord back in his home country. It is another familiar story.

Here’s a quick, mini refresher course. For all those who want to believe that the Black Lives Matter movement is a hate and/or terrorist group (it ain’t), understand this: The impetus was to show the disparate treatment that is afforded to certain individuals (like George Zimmerman, who acted as self-proclaimed “security” of his apartment complex) and law enforcement when it comes to the killing of black people.

The lawyers who petitioned the court for a special prosecutor charged that in the course of what they described as a massive cover-up, officers had “intimidated witnesses, manufactured witness statements, destroyed evidence, prepared false police reports and may have provided false grand jury testimony” as part of an effort to portray the shooting as a heroic act of self-defense by a police officer in danger.

Armed police have today stepped-up patrols in the capital after a man slashed passers-by at random, just after 10.30pm last night killing a woman in her 60s dead and injuring five others.
A 19-year-old was arrested six minutes later in Southampton row after being hit with a Taser.

I thought the “most successful” campaign in NATO’s history meant that terrorism could not gain a foothold in the country, considering the Western alliance spends the majority of its time (after antagonising Russia that is) talking about fighting terrorism? I thought NATO’s love-bombs only hit the baddies, and never killed or maimed any civilians?
Are the Libyan people not enjoying the fruits of another Western foreign policy success story? Are the Libyan people not enjoying the stability that always follows a Western war of aggression? I thought the Libyan “kinetic military action” was yet another triumphant imperial endeavour, just like Afghanistan, Iraq and the numerous other countries that were lucky to be the targets of Western ‘humanitarian’ forces?

The Pentagon has withheld $300 million in military assistance to Pakistan, U.S. officials said Wednesday, a potential blow to U.S.-Pakistani ties and a sign of ongoing frustration with Islamabad for not acting against militants fueling violence in Afghanistan.

In total, the United States obligated nearly $67 billion (in constant 2011 dollars) to Pakistan between 1951 and 2011.

(25.7.2011) Als Teil der Isaf kämpfen US-Soldaten in Afghanistan gegen die Taliban. Doch offenbar finanziert das Verteidigungsministerium der Vereinigten Staaten die radikalislamische Kämpfer und damit den eigenen Feind indirekt, heißt es in einem Medienbericht. Das Ministerium kündigt eine Untersuchung an.

(17.5.2010) Ein großer Teil von etwa fünf Milliarden Dollar (3,4 Milliarden Euro), mit denen die pakistanischen Streitkräfte im Kampf gegen das Terrornetz al-Qaida und die radikalislamischen Taliban unterstützt werden sollten, sei stattdessen in die Finanzierung von Waffensystemen im Konflikt mit Indien geflossen, meldete die New York Times.

(24.12.2007) Mit rund fünf Milliarden Dollar (3,4 Milliarden Euro) jährlich unterstützt die US-Regierung den Kampf der pakistanischen Armee gegen den Terrorismus. Allerdings fließe das Geld teils in dunkle Kanäle oder werde zur Finanzierung anderer Programme eingesetzt, berichtete die „New York Times“ am Montag unter Berufung auf US-Regierungs- und Militärvertreter.
