US-trained Afghan spies & special forces are joining ISIS - Wall Street Journal

Many former national Afghan forces who are now being hunted by the Taliban after their US military backers withdrew from the country in August are turning to the Islamic State for protection, a new investigative Wall Street Journal report finds.


Comment: It's rather telling that these same people who were willing to work for the Americans during their war on their own country were rather quick to defect to ISIS. Note that there has been an uptick in attacks by ISIS on Afghanistan since US withdrawal, and it just so happens that chaos creation and overthrowing the Taliban is in line with the US agenda in the region: ISIS claims responsibility for deadliest attack on Afghanistan since US withdrawal


Also among those joining the ranks of ISIS in Afghanistan, or ISIS-K, are members of Afghanistan's US-trained intelligence service. "The number of defectors joining the terrorist group is relatively small, but growing, according to people who know these men, to former Afghan security officials and to the Taliban," The Wall Street Journal writes.

Though this is said to be happening in small numbers, and is described as a move out of desperation, it could be a huge boon to ISIS-K's capabilities, given US-trained intelligence members bring their expertise and capabilities with them to the terrorist group. Critics of the Biden's administration's Afghan exit fiasco have long warned that "left behind" US assets would be swooped up by terror groups.

Comment: It may be that some of those that defected did so under direction from their masters in the US: Pepe Escobar: Blowback: The Taliban target US intel's shadow army

That Julian Assange's extradition show trial now boils down to exactly how suicidal he is, proves this has never been about justice

A supporter of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange posts a sign on the Woolwich Crown Court fence in London.
The US has put Assange's mental health in the spotlight, while offering worthless assurances. Now the conversation is no longer about criminalizing journalism, but whether Assange is healthy enough to be sent to his death.

This week, I attended the High Court hearing where US lawyers appealed against a UK judge's decision in January not to extradite Australian journalist and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Judge Vanessa Baraitser previously blocked the extradition on the grounds that it would be oppressive to his health, and that US prison conditions are inhumane.

Appealing on five grounds, the two main elements of the appeal dealt with Assange's health, and diplomatic assurances that he wouldn't be placed in oppressive prison conditions in America. The United States lawyers attempted to downplay the severity of Assange's mental illness, arguing that he was not at high risk of suicide. The prosecutors argued that he did not meet the criteria for his extradition to be considered oppressive.

'Must watch.Very Powerful': Members of the European Parliament protest vaccine passports

European Parliament
In the latest editions of This Week in the New Normal, we mentioned a group of Members of the European Parliament who held a press conference where they opposed mandatory vaccination and the "Green Pass".

On the 28th five of those same MEPs held another press conference, and while the whole thing is worth watching (embedded above), the highlight is definitely German MEP Christine Anderson who speaks for two of the truest minutes in the EU's history:

Rule by decree: Irish government 'climate advisory group' announces 'green new deal'

sheeple herd depopulation
The Government's climate action plan contains a commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across the agriculture sector by 22pc to 30pc — but the national livestock herd will not be cut, the Sunday Independent has learned.


Comment: That has to be what it's about - cutting the national livestock herd. How else could you 'reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 30%'??


The disclosure comes as leading climate scientist Tara Shine, who was appointed by the United Nations to work towards global climate goals, warns that Ireland must stop "demonising" farmers in the drive to reduce carbon emissions.

Yesterday Green Party leader Eamon Ryan said farmers will be given longer to adjust to climate changes. "All sectors must play their part, but some can go faster than others. Agriculture will take longer," Mr Ryan told the Sunday Independent.

However, confirmation today that agriculture emissions are to be reduced by up to 30pc will anger farmers.

Comment: These people have all drunk the kool-aid. They're in complete control of all Western capitals, and they cannot be stopped. They're going to cull the human herd, they believe, to 'save the species'.

Group photo tells everything you need to know about Joe's G20 adventure

Welp, Joe Biden went full Joe Biden on Saturday, after first making a low-key entrance at his first G20 summit, as the leaders of the world's largest economies (sans China and Russia; the latter would be a third-world country were it not for nuclear weapons, and oil and gas reserves) gathered in Rome.

That said — Biden being Biden — we'll get to his foolishness in a bit.

Attending their first in-person summit in two years, due to the COVID pandemic, as reported by Reuters, G20 leaders backed calls to extend debt relief for impoverished countries and pledged to vaccinate 70 percent of the world's population against COVID-19 by mid-2022.

Russian President Vladimir Putin claimed his country is leading the way in switching to greener energy, calling on other nations to follow suit as part of a meeting of world leaders focused on tackling climate change on Sunday.
"We believe that G20 members should lead the world in creating universal, fair and, importantly, transparent rules for climate regulation, when implementing climate and environmental initiatives," Putin told the second day of this weekend's summit of states with large economies.
Putin commended what he believes is Russia's progress made over the past several years.
"The share of carbon-neutral sources of power - nuclear, hydropower, wind and solar plants - has surpassed 40% in Russia. If you count in natural gas, which among hydrocarbons has the lowest carbon footprint, that share would be 86%. It's one of the best results in the world," he said.

Comment: The centers of power that rule this world are much more powerful than any national state, including Russia and Putin as its leader.
Sometimes, when fighting with the wolves he must give them something to bite, to play their game. It is not about who will win the battle, it is about who will win the war in the end.

STORY AT-A-GLANCE
> The major concern at the 1992 Convention on Biodiversity was "protecting the pharmaceutical and emerging biotechnology industries."

> The United Nations defined Biodiversity as "genetic resources", which meant that genetic material was to be owned, exploited, and controlled through genetic engineering performed by the Biotech industry.

> The Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework calls for digital genetic sequencing of all species, including humans, to be stored as a global common asset and made available for licensing by the biotechnology industry.

> It intends to "bring about a transformation in society's relationship with biodiversity and to ensure that, by 2050, the shared vision of living in harmony with nature is fulfilled."
Introduction

In 1992, the original UN Convention on Biological Diversity was conducted in parallel with the Agenda 21 Conference under the name of the UN Conference on Economic Development (UNCED). Both were held in Rio de Janiero, Brazil, and were sponsored by the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP), United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN).

Agenda 21 was called "the agenda for the 21st century" and was centered around Sustainable Development, a resource-based economic system closely resembling historic Technocracy.[1]

Comment: Note from the TN editor:
Few people saw the real driving force behind Agenda 21 and the Biodiversity Convention in 1992. This article is necessarily long and detailed. Some may find it difficult to follow. However, the research is explosive and gives a new and poignant explanation of how and why the world was thrown upside down with a pandemic narrative orchestrated by Big Pharma and the biotechnology industries.

In the interest of space, I have purposefully left out other important areas that tie into this story. One is the Transhuman dream of creating Humanity 2.0 via genetic engineering. Another is how it ties into the World Economic Forum's Great Reset, which contains a rich narrative on Transhumanism and resetting the human race. Lastly, what is the full meaning of "Living in harmony with nature." These will be explored in future articles.

My sincere hope is that other investigative journalists and researchers will pick up the trail and blow the lid off the greatest story never (yet) told on planet earth.

There's a Hole in the Minds of Democrats

Government's creatures!
To make a call back to the seminal 90's TV series Babylon 5, which I expect series creator JMS, now a complete shitlib, will destroy with his reboot (Definition: "to make worse and add diversity" — H/T Kevin Smith), the Democrats have a massive hole in their strategy to destroy capital formation in the US for the foreseeable future.

This week Sen. Joe Manchin (D?-WV) personally blew up no less than five terrible taxes that were signature pieces of the 'Build Back Better' bill attached to this year's budget. It was a masterful performance of standing up, being #ungovernable, and simply saying, "You know what? No."

Now, don't get me wrong, I fully expect Manchin to cave at some point, just like Kyrsten Sinema has on a few things. But now that Manchin has forced Democratic "leadership" to strip out everything the Progressives want, Speaker Nancy Pelosi is trapped in a hedge maze of her own design. And it left Biden going empty-handed for COP26 in Glasgow, the Climate Summit where the world's leaders get to harangue us about our selfishness for not wanting to freeze to death in winter or, you know, eat.

Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger incite liberal meltdown over Tucker Carlson doc exposing dark truth behind 1/6

America's anemic and illegitimate globalist ruling class are a psychologically fragile bunch in the best of times. But now, they are in full-blown meltdown mode after the announcement of Tucker Carlson's Fox Nation special investigating FBI incitement of the January 6 Capitol incident and the wider persecution campaign by the federal government against patriots, MAGA supporters, and America-Firsters across the country.

After ten months of distortions, exaggerations, and outright lies, the truth about 1/6 is finally coming out, and the liberal guardians of the Regime are not ready for it.

Comment: Gloves are off! Tucker rips into Liz Cheney!
Carlson responded to Cheney on Thursday, slamming her as a liar and a coward.

Unsurprisingly, the left has been absolutely triggered over Carlson's upcoming exposé, and wants it stricken from existence before millions, perhaps tens-of-millions of Americans are presented with an alternative narrative that contains highly uncomfortable truths.

Top Russiagate/Ukrainegate peddler Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) in a statement to WaPo, said:
"There is no lie too big or conspiracy theory too dangerous for Tucker Carlson to propagate. His latest salvo is nothing less than an invitation to violence. By airing it, Fox News demonstrates yet again a willingness to profit from tearing the country down."
A reminder of how the left and its corporate media lapdogs framed participants, anyone who supported the protest, and their little dogs too, while some pointed out that the calls for censorship were fundamentally anti-American:

Funding both sides: France's new 'Right' candidate backed by Rothschilds' connections

Although the Rothschilds are known to be behind the globalist, de-industrialization, green, LGTB/transgender, mass immigration, climate nonsense causes, it was always about funding both sides throughout history to obtain the desired personal outcome. Here we see a good example of that - arms-length connections to a potential new French presidential candidate, the bastion of the identitarian right - Eric Zemmour, who isn't afraid to call a spade a shovel when it comes to the influence of migrant groups in France, especially Muslims. As Free Thinker (Le Libre Penseur, dentist Salim Laibi) notes below, he makes Marine Le Pen look like a girl guide.

France is definitely making a shift to the right in its thinking, as are many places. A seasoned political observer known to us saw this story and simply said, 'they'll do anything to stop Le Pen'. We'll go with that.

Throughout the insanity of the last 18 months, Zemmour could be found in the 7-8pm slot on a CNews analysis program, giving highly intelligent, informed opinions and breakdown on a variety of topics. Well known as a journalist and writer, he garnered viewers for this TV channel, which had the audacity to let him air his views nightly. Meanwhile, however, NOBODY has been going to bat for the ordinary Joe, who's had his life turned upside down.
