Theresa May will not hold her cabinet meeting in Downing Street today. It's lucky really, because the ministers that would sit at the table are sinking under a pile of disasters so big, some are speculating that it could bring down the government.

Comment: The sooner the corrupt child abusers and warmongers that have been running the UK for years are exposed and run out of town (ideally the whole country), the better.

The number of British-made bombs and missiles sold to Saudi Arabia since the start of its bloody campaign in Yemen has risen by almost 500 per cent, The Independent can reveal.

More than £4.6bn of arms were sold in the first two years of bombings, with the Government grant increasing numbers of export licences despite mounting evidence of war crimes and massacres at hospitals, schools and weddings.

The United Nations says air strikes by the Saudi-led coalition are the main cause of almost 5,295 civilian deaths and 8,873 casualties confirmed so far, warning that the real figure is "likely to be far higher".

It has condemned the "entirely man-made catastrophe" leaving millions more on the brink of famine and sparking the world's worst cholera epidemic, while blacklisting Saudi Arabia for killing and maiming children.


Comment: Is this the same Saudi Arabia that has recently been claiming to be in the midst of routing corruption at the highest echelons and promising more rights for its women? We'll have to wait and see since the elites of that country are infamous for their crimes against humanity and duplicity:

UK International Development Secretary to be sacked after secretly planning to funnel aid to Israeli army

Priti Patel is expected to be sacked later today after evidence that she misled Theresa May over further secret meetings with Israeli politicians.

The International Development Secretary has cut short a trip to Africa to rush back for a second confrontation with a furious Prime Minister in Downing Street.

Her sudden return comes after her department admitted Ms Patel held two further meetings in September - which she failed to disclose when rebuked by Ms May on Monday.

One was with an official from Israeli foreign ministry and the other - held on the House of Commons terrace - with the minister for public security.

It is believed no UK government officials were present, but Ms Patel was accompanied by the president of the powerful Conservative Friends of Israel lobby group.

Comment: Almost a century ago, the UK helped create a monster, and now that monster is coming back to bite it. Theresa May might be ready to sack Pattel, but where is the outrage at the insane power that Israel lobby groups have over the UK (and the US)?

There is only one sane mind in the whole UK political class at the moment:

Damascus will continue to battle terrorists until it regains full control of Syrian territory and re-establishes security, President Bashar Assad has said. His top adviser, has meanwhile branded all foreign troops present in Syria without authorization as "illegal invaders."

The war in Syria will continue until full "recovery of security and stability to all Syrian lands," Assad said Tuesday after talks with Ali Akbar Velayati, the foreign policy adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Assad said the Syrian Arab Army (SAR) is engaging not only terrorists but also those who seek to "divide and weaken states." The Syrian president was apparently referring to the Turkish-backed Free Syrian Army (FSA) and the American-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) which are battling Damascus to control parts of Syria.

Russia to UN Security Council: Report on chemical attack in Syria is full of "systemic deficiencies"

The OPCW-UN investigation into the chemical attack in Syria's Idlib province is littered with "systemic deficiencies," Russia's deputy UN envoy has told the UN Security Council, reiterating that Moscow maintains the April 4 incident was staged.

On October 26, the OPCW-UN Joint Investigative Mechanism (JIM) issued a report in which it pinned blame for the Khan Shaykhun incident on Damascus. With JIM's mandate set to expire on November 16, Russia criticized the methodology of the UN fact-finding mission, casting doubt on the mandate's extension.

"Without a comprehensive change it will become a tool to settle accounts with the Syrian authorities," Russian deputy representative to the United Nations, Vladimir Safronkov, told the Security Council.

America's UN envoy, Nikki Haley, meanwhile tried to rally other members of the UN Security Council (UNSC) to renew JIM's mandate. "Anyone who prevents us from achieving this goal is aiding and abetting those who have been using chemical weapons," she said.


Comment: Russia has been blasting this report repeatedly - and rightly so. But who is listening? See also:

Flashback Q&A with Julian Assange on the Panama Papers

With leaked data sets getting increasingly larger, cooperation between news outlets is becoming a standard operating procedure.

News outlets that once were chasing the exclusive are now willing - or maybe compelled - to join forces with competitors and to even keep a lid on juicy stories for months or longer - all in the spirit of collaboration.

One organisation at the forefront of this trend is WikiLeaks.

When its founder and editor-in-chief Julian Assange decided to partner with a few news outlets on the Afghan War Logs, he created a reporting model that would go on to grow larger, with more and more partners, with subsequent leaks.

Al Jazeera's Richard Gizbert went to the Ecuadorian embassy in London to sit down with Assange and discuss the Panama Papers, multi-newsroom collaborations and how to handle leaked documents.

British Minister for Secret Israeli Affairs? UK govt minister Priti Patel held undisclosed meetings in Israel

Update 8 November 2017

Patel specifically discussed with the Israeli govt funnelling British 'aid' to the IDF troops assisting mercenary forces fighting Assad in the Golan Heights. She still hasn't been fired.



Tory MP Priti Patel held undisclosed meetings in Israel without telling the Foreign Office while accompanied by an influential pro-Israel Conservative lobbyist, it has been reported. She has been accused of breaking the ministerial code of conduct.

Patel, the international development secretary, met the leader of one of Israel's main political parties and made visits to several organizations where official departmental business was discussed, according to the BBC. A source said at least one of the meetings was held at the suggestion of the Israeli ambassador to London.

British diplomats in Israel were not informed of Patel's plans, despite ministers being obliged to tell the Foreign Office when they are conducting official business overseas. The meetings took place over two days in August while Patel was on holiday in Israel.

Comment: It says this: this goes beyond the 'influence-peddling' Clinton was exposed doing: the British Zionist lobby literally accompanies the British govt minister to meetings with Israeli counterparts, meetings set up by Israel's envoy in London!

Houthi missile attack on Riyadh a 'reaction to Saudi aggression', says Iran's Rouhani

The recent missile attack near the Saudi Arabian capital's airport was a legitimate response by the Yemeni people to Saudi bombings, Iran's President Hassan Rouhani said. Earlier, the Saudis called Iran's support for the Houthi in Yemen an act of war.

"How should the Yemeni people react to the bombardment of their country? So they are not allowed to use their own weapons? You stop the bombardment first and see if the Yemenis would not do the same," Rouhani said on Wednesday, as quoted by Tasnim news agency.

Rouhani was apparently commenting on Riyadh's Monday statement claiming Iran was responsible for the attack that involved a ballistic missile launched from Yemen. The missile, intercepted by the kingdom's air force on Saturday, reportedly targeted Riyadh Airport. Houthi rebels have been accused of carrying out the attack.

England: Land of royals, tea and elite pedophile networks

british pedophiles
From politicians' fraudulent expenses to phone hacking, Britain has become surprisingly scandal-strewn in recent years, but the latest reputational cyclone to sweep across its shores is casting an especially dark light: pedophilia in high places.

Newspapers and TV bulletins have been dominated for the past week by allegations that politicians with links to Margaret Thatcher's government sexually abused vulnerable children in the 1980s and hid the truth for decades through their "chumocracy." Suspicions of an establishment cover-up involving government departments, Scotland Yard and other elements of the establishment intensified in recent days when the law-and-order ministry, the Home Office, confirmed dozens of potentially-relevant files alleging sexual misconduct had gone missing from its archives.

The allegations - which centre around the suggestion that politicians of all parties and other VIPs preyed on children at a guest house in the London suburb of Barnes - have been given greater credence because in the past two years a string of national figures have been exposed as predatory pedophiles.
