About two-thirds of Russians believe in the existence of a shadowy world government, and most of them also believe it is hostile to their country, according to a recent survey.

On Wednesday state-run Russian public opinion research agency VTSIOM released the results of a poll in which 67 percent of Russian citizens said they believe there is a secret world government. Twenty-one percent said they reject the possibility that it exists, and the rest were undecided.

Just two years ago, about 45 percent said they believe in the existence of a global government, while over 30 percent rejected the idea, the researchers noted. The survey also revealed that the percentage of those who believe it exists is higher among older people (over 70 percent), but among people between 18 and 34, it was also significant - about 55 percent.

About one-third of those who believe it exists said they could not give any evidence to back the world government theory. Those who could mentioned various signs - from the existence of international organizations like the UN or NATO, to references to TV programs and talk on the street.

Around 74 percent of those who believe there is a world government think that it has a hostile attitude towards Russia, while only 10 percent said the shadow body acts in Russia's best interests.

Comment: These Russians aren't wrong.

'80% were grown-ups': Swedish dentist 'crushed' by legal system for exposing migrant 'kids' as adults will take case to European Court of Justice

A Swedish dentist who was ruined after being fired and fined for revealing that over 80 percent of his refugee 'children' patients were actually adults, told RT that people coming to his country should not lie about their age.

The story of Bernt Herlitz, a dental hygienist from the Swedish island of Gotland, came under the spotlight in 2016 when he revealed an unpleasant truth. Herlitz was analyzing the teeth of "unaccompanied" minor migrants who started to arrive in the Scandinavian country as the worst refugee crisis since WWII struck Europe. It turned out that wisdom teeth of the 'children' were fully grown in 80 percent of cases, a sign clearly showing that Herlitz' patients were far from being underage.

Comment: Such events makes one wonder about the real agenda of the migrant influx.

The public school system corrupts children

Across North America, the debate surrounding sex education continues to swirl through the schools. Parental protests are popping up in British Columbia to voice disagreement with the SOGI curriculum, Parents as First Educators are pushing the Doug Ford government to roll back the radical sex-ed of the previous Liberal government, and private religious schools are battling the provincial government of Alberta in court to keep them from forcing their LGBT agenda into the independent sphere, as well. Across the United States, small pockets of parents are also doing battle with the powerful LGBT lobby that is steamrolling its way through the school system, demanding that their ideology be taught to other people's children-and usually succeeding.

It is disturbing to stop and realize what is now considered too controversial for children, and conversely what is considered appropriate for children. Laura Ingalls Wilder, for example, has just had her name stripped from a prestigious award for children's literature because there are passages in her books that our politically correct elites consider to be racist, or at least culturally insensitive. Interestingly, Wilder was herself a teacher, obtaining her teaching certificate in 1882 and signing on to teach a one-room schoolhouse full of children in the Dakota Territory at the age of only fifteen years old. Her mother, Caroline Quiner, was also a schoolteacher when she met and married Charles Ingalls (known to generations of children simply as "Pa") in 1860.

Monty Python's Terry Gilliam weighs in on the BBC's diversity push: 'I'm a black lesbian'

Last month, BBC "comedy controller" Shane Allen announced a new slate of shows for the fall with a particular emphasis on the diversity of the programs. From the Guardian:
The BBC's controller of comedy commissioning, Shane Allen, said he aimed to "grow the stars of tomorrow" and promote "more and more diversity"...

He said the time had passed when having "quite a male-dominated selection process" led to "a lot of male, middle-aged middle-class comedy".
Someone asked Allen if that would rule out shows like Monty Python in the future. He replied, "If you're going to assemble a team now, it's not going to be six Oxbridge white blokes. It's going to be a diverse range of people who reflect the modern world." That didn't sit well with director and Monty Python cast member Terry Gilliam. Gilliam was asked what he thought of the comments and said he wanted to henceforth be known as a black lesbian:

Syrian army captures FRENCH armaments in Dara'a province
Syrian victories continue to uncover the hand of Israel, some EU states, and the US in backing terrorism. The Syrian Army has captured several APILAS anti-tank systemsmanufactured in France in the south of the country, local media have said.

It is said that the systems were manufactured by the French armament and military equipment maker, Nexter. According to the issue, the guns were captured in Daraa province.

APILAS is an anti-tank system with cumulative ammunition of 112 mm caliber. It is used for the destruction of fortifications and shelters, as well as armored equipment. The range of the APILAS reaches 600 meters, depending on the target.

Comment: Having regained control of almost the entire border line with Jordan, the Syrian Army began a full-scale mop-up operation to secure the area before safely deploying border forces.
The cleansing operation has uncovered a huge underground armory which contains massive quantities of weapons and ammunition.

The arsenal includes mortar and tanks shells (mostly UK-made), various missiles and armored vehicles.
Units of the Syrian Arab Army discovered heavy, medium, and light weapons, some of which are US-made TOW missile launch pads left behind by terrorists in eastern countryside of Daraa.

Russophobia reaches fever pitch in US media as Trump-Putin summit approaches

Countless theories about Donald Trump's ties to Moscow have become a US media obsession, with mind-numbing Russia hysteria fully embraced by 'respected' outlets ahead of the summit with Vladimir Putin, RT's Murad Gazdiev reports.

American media have performed dizzying feats of wild speculation in the run-up to the Helsinki meeting on July 16, perhaps best exemplified by a particularly zealous New York Magazine article which suggested that the "private" meeting between Trump and Putin could be "less a negotiation between two heads of state than a meeting between a Russian-intelligence asset and his handler."

UK police say 'no guarantee' they'll be able to catch those responsible for Skripal and Amesbury cases

Britain's counter-terrorism chief Neil Basu says he can't guarantee authorities will catch those responsible for the nerve agent poisoning of the Skripals and Dawn Sturgess, and is even unable to say if both incidents are linked.

Basu, who is national lead for Counter Terrorism Policing, told residents of Amesbury he would "love to be able to say that we have identified and caught the people responsible and how we are certain there are no traces of nerve agent left anywhere in Wiltshire, but the brutal reality is that I cannot offer you any reassurance or guarantee at this time."

Sturgess and Charlie Rowley reportedly fell ill after coming into contact with Novichok on June 30, and Sturgess died days later. This is the same nerve agent believed to have poisoned Sergei and Yulia Skripal in March. Public Health England have repeatedly said there is no wider threat to the public arising from the Skripal case.

"At this stage, we cannot say with certainty that both the incident in March and this latest incident are linked," Basu told attendees at Tuesday evening's community meeting.

Comment: If you don't even know who did it, and doubt you'll be able to do so in the future, in what world does it make any sense that they can blame Russia? "We don't know who did it, but we know Russia did it." The UK authorities have lost their marbles. Well, not exactly. They're just lying. They probably know full well who did it. But admitting that publicly is impossible, because it is not Russia, and such an admission would be very inconvenient for the UK authorities.

Rinse, repeat: UK police admit they have no evidence of nerve agent or link to Skripal in recent Salisbury death

In the latest development regarding the alleged poisoning in Amesbury, police said the couple could have found the container with the nerve agent right after the Skripals' poisoning, but opened it only within the last ten days. However, the container has not been found and it's unclear if the link between the two poisonings will ever be found.

British counter-terrorism police chief Neil Basu has admitted that detectives have thus far failed to confirm whether the toxic agent the couple from Amesbury was allegedly exposed to in late June was the same as the one that was ostensibly used against former Russian intelligence agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in March.

Speaking at a public meeting in Amesbury, Basu pointed out that he "would love to be able to say that we have identified and caught the people responsible and how we are certain there are no traces of nerve agent left anywhere in Wiltshire [county]."

Comment: The UK is reaching new lows with Skripal 2.0. And it shows just how desperate the establishment has become that it's willing to risk whatever credibility it had left in yet another attempt to smear Russia. Meanwhile fans visiting Russia for the World Cup are realising that what their government told them about the country and its people is quite far from the truth: For more, check out SOTTs' new show: NewsReal: Novi-shock!

Russian delegation walks out of OSCE session in protest over regulations violation

All Russian parliamentarians have left the current session of OSCE's Parliamentary Assembly as a protest against a blatant violation of the group's regulations, apparently condoned by its newly elected chairman.

The protest took place at the Wednesday session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Organization for Cooperation and Security in Europe that is taking place in Berlin, Germany.

Deputy speaker of the Russian Lower House, MP Pyotr Tolstoy (United Russia) said in comments with TASS that the protest was issued because some of the authors of the two latest anti-Russian resolutions were absent when these documents were put up for discussion. The Russian side asked that the debates are postponed, but the request was rejected by the current acting head of the assembly "in a teasing and insulting manner" after which all Russian representatives had to leave the assembly hall.

The Left needs to sort out the reasonable from the unreasonable

On May 18, Jordan Peterson and Stephen Fry debated Michelle Goldberg and Michael Eric Dyson in Toronto on the merits of political correctness. The debate was infuriatingly unproductive, turning as it did into a wide-ranging but rather unfulfilling discussion. Still, I was glad to see that despite their frequent digressions, both sides managed to produce the occasional insight.

I wish, though, that one particular point of contention had been further explored. Around halfway through the debate, Peterson asked Goldberg if she thought the Left ever went too far in its theories or tactics. She replied with a bland comment about how she was against leftist "violence and censorship." This was moral pusillanimity of the highest order. Being against violence and censorship is the ethical equivalent of being against slavery or genocide; it is axiomatic and requires neither serious thought nor moral courage to state such a position. Goldberg failed to answer the real question Peterson was asking: What left-wing beliefs should be forbidden, deemed too radical and dangerous for anyone to hold?

One longs for the day when left-wing intellectuals answer this question - or even begin to contend with it. As Peterson noted, our intellectual culture has been largely successful in delineating the sorts of opinions which are unacceptable for right-wingers to embrace. Race hatred is not okay. Apologetics for Klansmen and National Socialists are not okay. Peterson says, correctly, that the cultural taboos on racial-supremacist sentiment are fully justified; we know what racist ideologies can do and have done, and so we feel disgusted whenever anyone attempts to resuscitate them.
