Matthias Eickhoff vom Aktionsbündnis Münsterland gegen Atomanlagen verwies auf die im Frühjahr festgestellten Risse an Rohren im Primärkreislauf des 1988 in Betrieb genommenen Kraftwerkes. Das seien klare Zeichen von Materialermüdung und das Material werde nicht besser, warnte er. „Das erfüllt uns mit großer Sorge“, sagte Eickhoff.

The Plowshares 7 Found Guilty: Nuclear Weapons Are the Real Crime
On that day, April 4, 2018, the group had entered a U.S. Navy Submarine base which is a home port for the Trident nuclear missile fleet. Just one of those nuclear missiles, if launched, would cause 1,825 times more damage than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. The Plowshares activists aimed to expose illegal and immoral weapons that threaten all life on earth.
Lindsey Graham: ‘Steal Syria’s Oil To Pay for US Occupation!’
Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has been chewing down his fingernails ever since President Trump’s first suggestion that US troops should come home from the Middle East. Last December, when Trump made it clear that he wanted to end the US troop presence in Syria and let the people of the region take care of their own problems, Graham took to an accommodating media (across the supposed ideological spectrum) to slam, damn, and threaten the president for even entertaining such a thought.
Lindsey Graham: ‚Syriens Öl stehlen, um für die US-Besatzung zu bezahlen!‘
Trump ist ein Trottel, wenn er auf Graham hört.
The FBI Has a Long History of Treating Political Dissent as Terrorism
While terrorism in the U.S. is relatively rare, over the last decade most politically motivated violence has come at the hands of far-right extremists. Despite that reality, the FBI has devoted disproportionate resources to the surveillance of nonviolent civil society groups and protest movements, particularly on the left, using its mandate to protect national security to target scores of individuals posing no threat but opposing government policies and practices.

We Can’t Keep the Oil – Trump’s new rationale for keeping troops in Syria makes no sense.
First, Syria doesn’t even rank among the world’s top 60 oil producers, pumping out only about 0.05 percent as much petroleum as Iraq—just half as much as Cuba, which isn’t known as an oil power.
Second, its oil fields aren’t America’s to protect. They are owned by the Syrian government, with some venture capital provided by China, Russia, and India. No American oil companies are keen to step into the fray.
Die #USA wollen jetzt neue Truppen nach #Syrien schicken, die Rede ist offenbar auch von Kampfpanzern. Und zwar um die Ölfelder dort unter Kontrolle zu halten.
Trump decided to leave troops in Syria after conversations about oil, officials say
The eastern oil fields in Deir al-Zour province, where most of Syria’s relatively small and low-quality reserves are located, were once the primary source of income for the militants, who sold the oil to the Syrian government, Turkey and, reportedly, even to the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
Trump forced into humiliating climbdown over Syria as US military poised to send in tanks
In a speech at the White House on Wednesday he added: “We’ve secured the oil, and, therefore, a small number of US troops will remain in the area where they have the oil.
“And we’re going to be protecting it, and we’ll be deciding what we’re going to do with it in the future.”

Boris Johnson could back no confidence vote in own administration to get general election
However the Government could table a vote of no confidence against itself, which only requires a plurality to pass.
If this passes Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn, or any other party leader, would have 14 days to form an alternative Government.
Only if these efforts failed would there be a general election.

Labour opens the door to indefinite Brexit delay as Jeremy Corbyn rules out an election until no deal is ‚off the table‘

Boris Johnson slaps down Sajid Javid and insists Brexit by 31 October still ‚possible‘
Pressed on the Chancellor‘s comments, Mr Johnson said: „Of course 31 October is still possible, we could leave on 31 October.
„Unfortunately it depends on what the EU says, we’re in a situation now in which under the terms of the surrender act that was passed by Parliament it is up to the EU to decide how long that extension will be.“
BREAKING: EU agrees to UK Brexit delay decision but refuses to set length – citing Britain‘s election indecision
