Resurfaced The View Clip That Kamala May Regret

“The West does not want to avoid escalation. The West is looking for trouble. Western countries are like small children playing with matches.” — Lavrov

Americans THINK they're safe across the ocean, but they're not.

"Western countries are like small children playing with matches.”
By Hal Turner: The Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, again warned the United States and the West that they are "playing with fire" - and specifically mentions nuclear weapons - as they encourage Ukraine to invade Russia.

Below, in video with English sub-titles Lavrov tells reporters "The West does not want to avoid escalation. The West is looking for trouble. Western countries are like small children playing with matches.”  He specifically references people doing this when nuclear weapons are involved

So that readers are aware that Lavrov did not mis-speak, he reiterated his remarks at a full blown press conference:

In the second clip above, Lavrov makes clear Russia is viewing developments in Ukraine as having potential for "World War 3"if the US and NATO continue causing Ukraine to escalate, Americans THINK they're safe across the ocean, [but they're not].

Aluminum Foil: Convenient In The Kitchen, But Is It Safe?

Though the use of aluminum foil for cooking and food storage has been passed down for generations, research suggests it may be time for alternatives.

Authored by Sheramy Tsai: Aluminum foil, a kitchen staple used by millions for baking, grilling, and storing food, is now at the center of a growing debate. Concerns about aluminum safety have led experts to question whether this common household item may pose hidden health risks.

As studies reveal the potential for aluminum to leach into food during cooking—especially when acidic or salty ingredients are involved—scientists are examining whether cooking with aluminum foil contributes to the body’s overall aluminum burden. With aluminum present in many everyday products, understanding its cumulative impact on health is becoming increasingly important, say some.

Aluminum Foil: A Kitchen Essential

More than 93 percent of U.S. households use aluminum foil. Its durability and malleability make it a versatile tool, easily molded and shaped for various tasks.

Rowan Atkinson Just OBLITERATED The British Government

"Atkinson's words have not only aged like fine wine, but are as relevant as ever in our ongoing dialogue about who gets to say what, where and how. ...The freedom to speak one's mind and the new intolerance."

ND: Ever wondered if a single speech could shake the foundations of Parliament? Could the unassuming Mr. Bean, famed for his silent comedy, truly become a champion for free speech?
 
Today, we're diving into a moment that has aged like fine wine—Rowan Atkinson's 2012 Parliamentary speech.
 
This isn't just any talk; it's a rallying cry against the tightening grip on what Brits can say or share. You won't believe how relevant his words remain today, in light of all of Keir Starmer’s evil authoritarian moves.

US Universities Silence Israel Critics! - With Chris Hedges

"Saying 'zionist' has been banned!"
Jimmy Dore: After cracking down on anti-genocide campus protests this spring, New York University is under fire this week for its new policy equating anti-Zionism with antisemitism as Israel continues its U.S.-backed assault on the Gaza Strip.
 
NYU's Nondiscrimination and Anti-Harassment Policy and Procedures for Students (NDAH), updated last week, states in part that "using code words, like 'Zionist,' does not eliminate the possibility that your speech violates the NDAH Policy. For many Jewish people, Zionism is a part of their Jewish identity. Speech and conduct that would violate the NDAH if targeting Jewish or Israeli people can also violate the NDAH if directed toward Zionists."
 
Jimmy and investigative journalist and author Chris Hedges discuss this latest effort to marginalize and silence pro-Palestinian speech on college campuses.

Dutch Activist Eva Vlaardingerbroek Slams The British Government On Its Response To Indigenous Britons' Protests

"So the UK the country of the Magna Carta, arguably the first ever document in European history that stated that the government, the king was not above the law, is now sentencing people to jail for disagreeing with them online, or for attending a protest and saying we have had enough of your open borders policies."

"We have had enough of mass immigration of its detrimental consequences and we want change!"

FPJ: Dutch activist Eva Vlaardingerbroek has sharply criticized the British government over its handling of recent riots in the UK. In her statements, Vlaardingerbroek condemned the government's response, accusing it of failing to address the underlying issues and exacerbating the unrest.

Turley: Zuckerberg's Censorship Admission Is More Contrived Than Contrite

Democracy is not on the ballot in 2024, as many have claimed, but free speech is...

Authored by Jonathan Turley: “I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it.” Those words from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg came this week with an admission in a letter that his company, Facebook, did yield to pressure from the Biden-Harris administration to censor American citizens on a wide array of subjects.

For those of us who have criticized Facebook for years for its role in the massive censorship system, Zuckerberg’s belated contrition was more insulting than inspiring. It had all of the genuine regret of a stalker found hiding under the bed of a victim.

Zuckerberg’s sudden regret only came after his company fought for years to conceal the evidence of its work with the government to censor opposing views. Zuckerberg was finally compelled to release the documents by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, and the House Judiciary Committee.

Now forced to admit what many of us have long alleged, Zuckerberg is really, really sorry.

In my book “The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage,” I discuss Facebook’s record at length as a critical player in the anti-free speech alliance of government, corporate, academic, and media forces.

In prior testimony before the House Judiciary Committee and other congressional committees, I noted that Zuckerberg continued to refuse to release this information after Elon Musk exposed this system in his release of the “Twitter Files.”

United Arab Emirates FREEZES Billions In Contracts With France Over Arrest Of Telegram CEO

'Authorities in France - and other Western nations - do not like the fact that they cannot eavesdrop and spy on TELEGRAM users; so they're charging the CEO with "complicity" because he won't create a back-door for governments to spy.'

By Hal Turner: Reports are emerging that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) government has frozen billions of dollars worth of contracts with France from whom it was going to buy 80 fighter jets.  The reason: Telegram CEO Pavel Durov is a dual citizen with the United Arab Emirates being one of the 2 countries he is a citizen of.

France arrested Durov as he got off a plane in Paris, charging him with "Complicity" in alleged crimes carried out on - or through - his encrypted messaging app, TELEGRAM.

The arrest of the 39-year-old technology billionaire prompted on Sunday a warning from Moscow to Paris that he should be accorded his rights, and criticism from X owner Elon Musk, who said that free speech in Europe was under attack.

Charging this CEO for crimes committed by others who were using his app, would be like charging the maker of BIC pens for bad checks written by people . . . it makes no sense.
