Two top secret British 'ghost ships' are reportedly on their way to Japan to collect enough plutonium for 80 nuclear warheads. It is believed that each ship is armed with 20mm cannon and guarded by 25 commandos.

They are likely being shadowed by a Royal Navy submarine.

The Pacific Heron and the Pacific Egret are currently en route to Japan after departing Barrow-in-Furness, England, in January. The vessels are to travel across the Atlantic before passing through the Panama Canal and into the Pacific, Mail Online reported.

Ottawa will not participate in airstrikes carried out by the US-led coalition against Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) in Syria and Iraq from February 22, Canada's Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, announced on Monday.

Although the country will conclude its bombing mission and pull six CF-18 fighter jets from the region, it will still maintain two surveillance planes and refueling aircraft in the area.

Were Saudi protesters executed with British weapons? Foreign Office remains tightlipped

Responding to inquiries by members of parliament, the Foreign Office neither confirmed nor denied whether British weapons had been used in the mass execution of protesters in Saudi Arabia last month.

The Gulf Kingdom executed 47 people, including Shiite cleric Nimr-al-Nimr and dozens of anti-government protesters, in early January. After hundreds of Shiites took to the streets of Iran in protest over the executions, Riyadh responded by severing diplomatic ties with the country.

Comment: Yes, it does seem that Saudi Arabia is at the heart of Islamic terrorism in the world today. Just remember the Saudi connection to 9-11... that's what got this whole mess going.

Western nations are making "huge efforts" to prevent a NATO membership referendum in Montenegro, as pro-Alliance groups are not sure citizens would vote in favor of joining a force that bombed them a short while ago, Russia's deputy foreign minister has said.

Deputy Foreign Minister Aleksey Meshkov highlighted the "uncanny phenomenon" of Russia's Western partners, who for years have been "preaching the importance of democracy and promotion of democratic principles [but] are now feverishly wrestling against the inherent principle of democracy that is people's freedom to express their will - I mean referendums."

When we think of national security, we think of tanks, jets, missile defense systems and more recently, information space. But what about the realm of the microscopic, the biological or the genetic?

Whether you think biotechnology, genetics and microbes constitute another plane upon the modern battlefield or not is irrelevant. Someone else already does, and they have a head start on the rest of the world.

Saudi Arabia appears 'dangerously close' to invading Syria

The Syrian conflict is still far from reaching a resolution. The peace talks came to a standstill before they actually started. The situation in the country is precarious, and intervention of Saudi Arabia's military forces would complicate it even more, journalist Rainer Sollich wrote for Deutsche Welle.

Last week, Saudi Arabia expressed readiness to send its ground forces to Syria to fight Daesh terrorist group.

Saudi Arabia is notorious for its attempts to spread radical Islam and support its adherences all around the world. Although it does not back up Daesh in particular, it may provide assistance to other extremist groups and thus contribute to the deterioration of security in the region, journalist Rainer Sollich wrote for Deutsche Welle.

NATO instructors continue active phase of Ukraine's military personnel training in country's western Lviv region, the Ukrainian Defense Ministry said in a statement Monday.

In November 2015, the first stage of the US-Ukrainian Fearless Guardian joint military exercises ended in Lviv region. Later in the month, Ukraine's National Guard reported that five mechanized battalions and one special forces battalion would be trained by US military advisers, within the framework of the next stage of Fearless Guardian drills that would end in November 2016.

"The International Peacekeeping and Security Centre of the National Land Forces Academy hosts the active phase of training of mechanized units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Currently, the U.S., Canadian, and Lithuanian instructors conduct training," the statement said.

The dollar takes another hit: Iran demands Euros for oil

Even with a number of U.S. sanctions against Iran coming to an end, the Iranian government has recently made a very important decision in regards to its oil payment system and it could spell bad news for the United States. This is because Iran has apparently decided to no longer accept U.S. dollars for payment on both its new and outstanding oil sales. Instead it will receive its payment in euros.

Reuters has cited an official from the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) as stating that the new plan will apply to "newly signed deals" with France's Total, Russia's Lukoil, and Spain's Cepsa.

Reuters quotes the official as saying that "In our invoices we mention a clause that buyers of our oil will have to pay in euros, considering the exchange rate versus the dollar around the time of delivery."

Children as cannon fodder: U.S. funding militias who employ child soldiers

The killing of a 10-year-old Afghan boy, Wasil Ahmad, by Taliban forces has raised serious questions about the United State's creation and backing of a militia group using of child soldiers.

Ahmad has been lionized as a national hero in Afghanistan after his death on Monday in the Uruzgan province at the hands of Taliban militants. The boy had previously gained national prominence for helping militia forces break an insurgent siege after his uncle had been wounded.

Ahmad's death, while fighting alongside his uncle, with a U.S. supported government militia called the Afghan Local Police (ALP) has thrust the grim practice of child soldiers in combat into the international spotlight once again.

"There's nothing heroic about putting a child in danger by arming him and having him fight in a war. The Taliban killed 10-year-old Wasil Ahmad, but those who encouraged him to fight bear responsibility as well," Patricia Gossman, the senior Afghanistan researcher for Human Rights Watch, told The Guardian.

Comment: The empire of chaos isn't remotely concerned about the fate of vulnerable children. Global conquest is the prime motivator and in such a conscienceless regime, everyone is disposable. The U.S. and its allies have no qualms about targeting civilian infrastructure in its wars, which has resulted in the deaths of countless numbers of women and children.
