I am re-publishing an article from the Al Marsad News below my editorial.

I would like to add some information about the Government of National Accord (the name is a joke) better known as the "GNA". The GNA is a "REGIME" of the Muslim Brotherhood and a full puppet of the Turkish madman Erdogan. This regime is made up of radicals and is a thieving, lying arm of the Muslim Brotherhood. Not one of its participants is legitimate, the so called "President" a man named Serraj was a furniture salesman who gained his position by being appointed by the United Nations (UN). Serraj is of Turkish decent. This gang of criminals was created in 2015 in Tunisia.

The UN put together what they termed the "Skhirat Agreement" (I will post the pdf below titled "Libyan political agreement"}. This agreement was drawn up and was never ratified by the legitimately elected government in Libya (House of Representatives) in Tobruk. The Libyan people did not agree to some outside agency appointing their governing parties, especially radicals all being controlled by the Muslim Brotherhood headquartered in Turkey. The Skhirat agreement was to last for "TWO" years, during which time a full country election and a new constitutional government was to be formed. The GNA had no power to sign agreements with foreign countries, it was to work directly with the House of Representatives on all matters including the Libyan Central bank etc.

Biden tells Trump: There's 'no miracle coming', then vows to stop coronavirus with 'Covid truth and mandatory masks'

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and running mate Kamala Harris at the Democratic National Convention, August 20, 2020.
Instead of "waiting for a miracle" like Donald Trump, Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden has vowed to bring Covid-19 under control - starting with a national mandate to wear masks as a "patriotic duty."

Biden gave his official acceptance speech on the last night of the Democratic National Convention on Thursday, at one point taking shots at US President Donald Trump's coronavirus response. But moments after warning that "no miracle is coming," Biden said his administration would provide just that, promising to roll out a "national strategy" to bring the pandemic under control on "day one."

Libya's 'government' announces cease-fire, calls for elections

In this Jan. 17, 2020, file, photo, Libyan Gen. Khalifa Hifter joins a meeting with the Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias in Athens.
Libya's U.N.-supported government Friday announced a cease-fire across the country and called for demilitarizing the contested strategic city of Sirte, which is controlled by rival forces.

In a separate statement, Aguila Saleh, speaker of the rival east-based House of Representatives, also called for a cease-fire.

Both administrations called for an end to an oil blockade imposed by rival forces since earlier this year.

The Tripoli-based government also called for parliamentary and presidential elections to be held in March.

Comment: This is interesting, because the Tripoli-based government has been ruling unelected, and thus illegitimately, for years. They recently received Turkish support in their civil war against the Hafter-led Libyan National Army, in their favor. Something's up, because the UN-backed government does not have the public support of Libyans and can't hope to win in an election.

Brexit talks in deadlock as both UK and EU admit a deal is looking ever more unlikely

David Frost and Michel Barnier met in Brussels this week for the latest round of talks
The chief negotiators from both the UK and the EU have warned that a post-Brexit trade deal is looking increasingly unlikely, following the latest round of talks.

Speaking during his regular press conference, Michel Barnier said: "Too often this week it felt as if we were going backwards more than forwards.

"Today, at this stage, an agreement between the EU and UK seems unlikely. I simply do not understand why we are wasting valuable time."

A trade agreement must go hand-in-hand with fair, mutually agreed standards; a long-term agreement on fishing and no cherry picking when it comes to the Single Market, he said.

"Brexit means Brexit," Mr Barnier added. "There is nothing tactical about this."

But failure to secure a Brexit trade deal will result in "economic turbulence, if not social and political disruption", he added.

David Frost, the UK's chief negotiator, seemed similarly gloomy about the prospects of securing a deal before the October deadline, saying: "Agreement is still possible, and it is still our goal, but it is clear that it will not be easy to achieve."

The two sides have remained entrenched in their positions, particularly on fisheries and the level-playing field, for many months.

Comment: Frost added:
The EU is still insisting not only that we must accept continuity with EU state aid and fisheries policy, but also that this must be agreed before any further substantive work can be done in any other area of the negotiation, including on legal texts.

"This makes it unnecessarily difficult to make progress," Frost said, urging Brussels to accept the "reality" of London wanting to "regain sovereign control of our laws, borders, and waters."

Same ole, same ole: Biden's DNC speech is just old lies disguised as new promises

Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden during a speech delivered for the largely virtual 2020 Democratic National Convention, August 20, 2020.
One speech, well written and read well, does not a president make. At the end of the day, the Democrats are putting forward a wolf in sheep's clothes, who is peddling the same worn-out lies disguised as new promises.

Joe Biden delivered his acceptance speech as the nominee of the Democratic Party to face off against Donald Trump in the 2020 Presidential election with all the pomp and circumstance that the Covid-19 pandemic would allow, speaking to a television audience from a podium set up on the stage of an empty theater.

Gone forever is the adjective "presumptive"; by accepting the nomination, Joe is now officially the leader of his party through the first week in November and, should he prevail in that election, for at least four years, should his health and advancing years permit.

'I was not invited': Tulsi Gabbard says DNC did not ask her to participate 'in any way'

Tulsi Gabbard
Democratic Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard confirmed Thursday that she had not been invited to participate in her own party's convention.

The former presidential candidate — who endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden when she formally dropped out of the race — responded to someone who noted her absence on Twitter, saying, "Reminder : @TulsiGabbard was 1 of 7 candidates that earned delegates during the Presidential primary. It has been a tradition that spanned decades for any candidate who earned a delegate to be offered a speaking slot at the convention. Tulsi was not invited."

"You're correct - I was not invited to participate in any way," Gabbard replied.


Comment: Of course she wasn't invited. Gabbard intelligently challenged the lies, idiocy and incompetence of so many political hacks and animals in the DNC, that to remind the public that this viable candidate was intentionally passed over for the idiot puppet now running - would be a mistake. The DNC leadership could not get Gabbard off the stage and out of the public eye fast enough.

Many in the Twitterverse could see the implications of Gabbard's exclusion as well:

The shaky stability established in Syria after the end of the Turkish attack on the Syrian Army in Idlib in February and March of 2020 has collapsed.

Just a day after the confrontation between the US military and the Syrian Army in the province of al-Hasakah, US troops deployed at the Koniko gas fields on the eastern bank of the Euphrates River came under rocket attack. According to local sources, at least 3 unguided rockets fell near US positions. Nonetheless, the attack led to no casualties.

A few hours earlier, two combat drones of the US military crashed in Idlib. Just ahead of the incident, pro-militant sources claimed that they had shot down 2 Russian drones in the area. Nonetheless, photos and videos from the ground immediately revealed that at least one of the crashed drones was an MQ-9 Reaper. Later, US media citing defense officials reported that the US lost two MQ-9 Reapers in a midair collision over Idlib. Many Syrian sources immediately linked the incident with the use of electronic warfare systems on US combat drones in the area.

The UAE vessel was seized after entering Iranian waters, the foreign ministry says
Iran on Thursday said it seized a United Arab Emirates-registered ship violating its territorial waters this week after the UAE coastguard killed two Iranian fishermen on the same day.

The foreign ministry said the boat was seized on Monday after UAE coastguard vessels "opened fire on several Iranian fishing boats ... leading to the deaths of two fishermen".

"On Monday, an Emirati ship was seized by the border guards of Iran and its crew were detained due to illegal traffic in our country's waters," state-run TV quoted a ministry statement as saying.

France 'considers' making masks compulsory at work - UPDATE: French govt issues diktat ordering all to wear masks at work

France requires masks inside public places
France is considering whether to make face-masks compulsory in shared workplaces such as open-plan offices, factories and conference rooms as it struggles to stem a spike in coronavirus infections.

The health authorities reported another record surge in new infections over the weekend, with 3,310 on Saturday. The numbers of coronavirus patients in French hospitals and in intensive care remain relatively low. But the government fears the epidemic may spiral out of control as the French return to the cities from summer holidays across the country.

Up to a third of clusters of new cases have been linked to private-sector workplaces.

Elisabeth Borne, the employment minister, is to discuss the proposal with employers and union leaders on Tuesday.

Comment: 24 hours after saying they were 'considering' this move, they made this move.

Now everyone in France must wear masks in public and at work. Soon they'll come for people in their cars and in their homes.

Trump claims 'something is wrong' with Joe Biden

President claims it would be 'impossible to have a fair election' if 51m mail-in ballots are sent out.

Donald Trump, counter-programming the Democratic National Convention, told Fox News "something is wrong with Joe Biden" that leaves the party's soon-to-be presidential nominee unable to "fight back" against leftist forces.

"They've forced him to support things that no one ever would have thought," the president told Sean Hannity of the progressive wing of the Democratic Party. "And he's not in a position to fight back. ... Something's going on. I assume we'll be able to find out ... sooner rather than later.

Comment: Trump is right - it is pretty obvious what's going on with Biden. It's clear as day and everyone who isn't emotionally invested in the potential Biden presidency is talking about it. That lefty news outlets continue in their state of denial and try to push the narrative that nothing is wrong with the candidate is ridiculously transparent.
