    That is a deeply disturbing article.

    I had only just got used to the idea that the Fabian Society was pulling all the strings.

    The CFR/globalists are derived from the Fabian's/Round table. It should take you less than a minute or two to verify that.

    Good read. Thanks. I think she's describing being "gaslit" as most of us surely are.

    My only problem with it is the championing of "unknown knowns / unknowns". From a civilian perspective the phrase is useful as to why we shouldn't deal jump to certainties (as I often do). But from a political standpoint it's a seriously dangerous philosophy.

    The book she cites "adventures in the screen trade" is just wonderful. A nice, cynically hilarious departure from all this ugliness. Albeit into the ugliness of Hollywood.

    Yes that line stuck out and made me think I know that feeling and I've been that idiot at the same time.

    About to read Paul Mason's latest book which has had very mixed reviews. Here's his take on the Syria situation. Is he right to conlude what he does? Or is he that guy in the pub....

    There's one or two who know everything who have contributed to the Syria thread overnight - trouble is, it's hard to work out how they can all be right.

    I think Trump is up to something, he is suddenly pivoting. The Chinese seem as though they are willing to to play along too. I wonder who else is involved?

    I wonder what caused that?


    He said they hit it off during their first discussion. Mr. Trump said he told his Chinese counterpart he believed Beijing could easily take care of the North Korea threat. Mr. Xi then explained the history of China and Korea, Mr. Trump said.

    “After listening for 10 minutes, I realized it’s not so easy,” Mr. Trump recounted. “I felt pretty strongly that they had a tremendous power” over North Korea,” he said. “But it’s not what you would think.”
