[Peace] [Peace-discuss] The Other Side of John McCain

[Karen Aram]

I watched the Blackstone podcast, the IP address is strange in that it is “VOA" in the middle. I hope thats not “Voice of America,” which is hardly credible.
We know Russia has warned the “western powers” against another fake chemical weapons attack on Syria, and people have been leaving Idlib, a most important area of Syria, in droves today as reported by alternative news.

It is a worrisome situation, with two great powers the US and Russia at military odds. Most of us are not surprised that the US hasn’t given up on Syria, they couldn’t achieve regime change so plan B is partition. If they can just control Idlib province ………

With McCain barely gone, alternative news is reporting Russia has sent ships to Syrian waters, while the U. S., France & Britain have theirs on the way. According to alternative Blackstone Intelligence Report, 8/28/18, Russia is attempting to stop a  Western fake chemical weapons attack followed by a real offensive.
I have found Blackstone to be trustworthy over time.

"Here is a piece that Cockburn and I wrote in 1999 about a psychiatric evaluation of McCain underwent while a prisoner of war in North Vietnam. The psych0logical portrait drawn by Spanish psychiatrist Fernando Barral is that of a deeply narcissistic personality, cold, hardened and largely devoid of human empathy, a man who seemed to view the bombing of civilian populations as a kind of sport. These aggressive personality traits have also characterized his nasty political career." –Jeffrey St. Clair

Here's our alert:

@SenSchumer:Don’t rename Senate office building for divisive war advocate John McCain
Don’t rename the Russell Senate office building for John McCain. John McCain divisively attacked Americans who oppose unconstitutional and endless wars. Paul Wellstone, who voted against the Iraq war, would be a more appropriate choice.

If the paeans to McCain by diverse political climbers seems detached from reality, it’s because they reflect the elite view of U.S. military interventions as a chess game, with the millions killed by unprovoked aggression mere statistics, says Max Blumenthal.
