A Cincinnati cop is actually being held accountable this week after a disturbing video showed him shove an elderly man so hard that he smashed his face on a concrete bench and broke his hip.

On Thursday, former Hamilton County sheriff's deputy Jason Mize was arrested after he was federally indicted on a charge of deprivation of rights under the color of law. The now-former deputy was seen on video attacking 61-year-old Mark Myers, who was only in jail after being falsely accused of a crime.

According to Cincinnati.com, Myers was arrested Aug. 20, 2016 after being accused of walking out of a Columbia Township Home Depot without paying for $120 in lighting and electrical equipment - a charge that ultimately resulted in an acquittal. He said there had been a computer error related to an online payment he'd already made.

In the video, Mize is seen throwing the elderly man into a holding cell so hard that he went flying into the concrete bench, suffering multiple lacerations to his head and a broken hip.

Peace will come only when Israel ends the Nakba

On Monday, the Trump administration broke with more than 70 years of official US policy and the position of the international community by moving its embassy to Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. As if to rub salt in their wounds, it was be inaugurated the day before Palestinians commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Nakba (the Catastrophe), when nearly a million Palestinians were displaced and became refugees during Israel's establishment. In Israel, the Nakba is not only ignored, it is outright denied or even justified. Yet if there is to be peace in this region - and I think it is possible - it begins with acknowledging the Nakba, understanding it, and working to reverse it.

Israel's ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in 1948, which saw the transformation of half of Palestine's population into stateless refugees, is not a mere historic event: it has persisted unabated until today. Since 1967, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were either expelled from or denied re-entry when they traveled outside the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Meanwhile, inside Israel's recognized borders, its policy of "Judaizing" the south and north of the country often result in a quiet transfer of Palestinians through expropriation of land and demolition of villages, as is occurring in Umm al-Hiran today, where an entire Palestinian community is being destroyed so a town for Jewish Israelis can be built in its place.

Santa Fe school shooter wore ANTIFA hammer and sickle pin

At least 8 people are dead, several injured after a gunman opened fire at Santa Fe High School in Texas Friday morning.

This is who is responsible for killing 8-10 people this morning at Santa Fe High School. Dimitrios Pagourtzis.

Dimitrios had a Facebook page but it is already deleted.


Comment: Her opinion:
The left is currently screaming that he wore an Iron Cross and is therefore a "right-wing Nazi" and the right is yelling back that he had a Communist lapel and must be "Antifa."

Both sides are probably wrong.

The most logical explanation for the inconsistency is that Pagourtzis, 17, was a member of the True Crime Community (TCC) - more specifically a Columbiner. Across social media there are hundreds of groups where people who are either fascinated by killers, have varying levels of hybristophilia, or generally idolize them, gather to share information about their murderers of choice.

Fans of Dylann Roof are generally referred to as "Roofies," those who adore James Holmes are dubbed "Holmies" - and arguably the largest and most active fandom is the "Columbiners."

Italian politician slams Russia sanctions as useless, questions motives and says only Europe's economy "suffers"

Sanctions imposed by Brussels on Russia over its alleged role in the Ukraine crisis have so far only managed to make European economies "suffer," an Italian Lega Nord regional leader told RT as his party strikes a coalition deal.

"How long do we have these sanctions already?" Paolo Grimoldi, a secretary for the Lega Nord party in the Italian northern region of Lombardy rhetorically asked, referring to restrictions imposed by the EU back in 2014. "What was the result? Nothing," he emphatically stated as he commented on the call for an immediate lifting of sanctions imposed on Russia, which is included in the government program presented by his party and its coalition ally, the Five Star Movement (M5S).

"We are not the only ones in Europe that consider sanctions against Russia useless," Grimoldi said. He also said that he does not understand why the Italian economy as well as the economies of other European countries have to "suffer" because "some people in Crimea held a referendum and decided to join Russia."

Comment: That the results of the sanctions has actually backfired on the West, with businesses skirting the rules where they can, and demonstrates just how baseless they are and what little support they have and that, really, they're there to satisfy the demented, ideologically driven chaos creators in the Western establishment: Also check out SOTT radio's:

Actor Terry Crews strikes out at Hollywood for protecting abusers

Famous actor and former NFL linebacker Terry Crews was one of the few men who spoke out during the height of the #MeToo movement and revealed that he had been sexually assaulted by a Hollywood executive. He is now speaking out and giving insight into the ways in which the establishment enables predators who use their money and influence to silence their victims.

In an interview with Megyn Kelly on the Today Show, Crews used the analogy of "If the police rape you, who do you go to?" to describe the way he was treated after he was assaulted by an executive within his own agency, and he attempted to report the incident to superiors the day after it happened.

Crews was represented by William Morris Endeavor at the time and he said he was at an industry event when the head of the motion picture department, who has since been identified as Adam Venit, walked up to him and groped him.

"I was groped-publicly, with my wife-at an industry event, and this guy comes at me and he gropes me, in front of everybody. I smacked the guy's hands back and I'm like, 'What are you doing? Leave me alone,' and he comes back and does it again," Crews said.

Ecuador's former president Rafael Correa denounces treatment of Julian Assange as "torture"

Former Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa, in an exclusive interview with The Intercept on Wednesday morning, denounced his country's current government for blocking Julian Assange from receiving visitors in its embassy in London as a form of "torture" and a violation of Ecuador's duties to protect Assange's safety and well-being. Correa said this took place in the context of Ecuador no longer maintaining "normal sovereign relations with the American government - just submission."

Correa also responded to a widely discussed Guardian article yesterday, which claimed that "Ecuador bankrolled a multimillion-dollar spy operation to protect and support Julian Assange in its central London embassy." The former president mocked the story as highly "sensationalistic," accusing The Guardian of seeking to depict routine and modest embassy security measures as something scandalous or unusual.

Comment: RT follows up:
The president of Ecuador has ordered the withdrawal of enhanced security from the country's London embassy, which was assigned to protect Julian Assange, who remains holed up there to avoid possible deportation to the US.

The Ecuadorian government "will maintain normal security similar to the level of security at all other Ecuadorean embassies in the rest of the world," Lenin Moreno, national secretary of communication, said in a statement. He added that "additional security at the Ecuadorian embassy" in London will be withdrawn immediately.

The Australian native, whose WikiLeaks whistleblowing website published secret documents pertaining to US national security, feared that Sweden would extradite him to the US. There, he could face a similar fate as Chelsea Manning, who was court-martialed and sentenced to 35 years behind bars for violations of the Espionage Act and other offenses. Manning was subsequently pardoned by former president Barack Obama after seven years in prison.

Eventually, Assange became an Ecuadorian citizen but remains trapped inside the walls of the embassy, despite the fact that Sweden has abandoned its extradition request. The UK authorities still have an active arrest warrant against the 46-year old for skipping bail back in 2012.

Earlier this week, The Guardian reported that Ecuador has spent $5 million accommodating Julian Assange in its UK embassy. Moreno's predecessor, Rafael Correa, blasted the report as a "sensationalized story," and said that there is "nothing unusual" about providing extra

The German federal migration service plans to review thousands of successful asylum applications. Earlier, it was revealed that a regional migration office granted asylum to thousands of people without sufficient grounds.

The German Federal Office for Migration and Asylum (BAMF) will re-examine some 18,000 cases in which refugees were granted asylum in Germany, the agency's director, Jutta Cordt, told journalists at a press conference on Friday. The inspection will cover all successful asylum applications filed as far back as 2000, she added.

The measure will be applied to all asylum cases processed by a BAMF regional office in the city of Bremen. It follows a corruption scandal that involved the former regional office head as well as five other local employees, including three lawyers and an interpreter.

Comment: Quality of life for ordinary citizens in the West is already in terminal decline, with 200,000 asylum seekers a year, after over 1.65 million already admitted, the outlook is bleak, and a backlash is brewing: Also check out SOTT radio's: The Truth Perspective: Weapons of Mass Migration: Interview with Michael Springmann on Europe's Migrant Crisis

The war on men in the #MeToo era

war on men

There's something tragic and unequivocally devastating happening to men in America today. During this #MeToo era, men are seen as rapists and misogynists when in fact most are gentlemen. Sadly, men are literally a dying breed. Masculinity is dismissed in favor of the feminization of males in the U.S. This is a dangerous trend and the statistics of the decline of men in America are very troubling, especially because it is rarely publicly acknowledged.

Fox News' Tucker Carlson rolled out a special series on his show titled, "Something Ominous is Happening to Men." Here are some scary facts he pointed out...

The overarching message from American society is that men are fine, they don't need any help. However, the average American man will die five years earlier than a woman. This is largely due to the spike in addiction rates for males: men are more than twice as likely to become addicts or die of a drug overdose than women. Women are actually living longer now than ever before. In opioid-addicted New Hampshire, 73% of overdose deaths were men. Since the 1990s, 77% of all suicides in the U.S. were committed by men, a dramatic increase that is never talked about. The suicide rate for males from 1997 to 2014 jumped an astonishing 43%. Most were white men.

Iran may resume uranium enrichment if EU fails to keep promises

Iran may resume its 20-percent uranium enrichment if EU governments fail to respect the 2015 nuclear deal after US withdrawal, the country's Atomic Energy Organization chief has warned.

"If the other side keeps itself committed to its promises we also will be keeping ourselves to our promises ... We hope the situation will not arise to the point that we will have to go back to the worst option," Ali Akbar Salehi told reporters in English, Reuters reports. "There are all kind of possibilities, we can ... start the 20 percent enrichment."

This move, if implemented, would take Iran a step closer to obtaining weapons-grade nuclear material in future, as it would make it easier and faster to enrich uranium to the 90-percent level required for nuclear bombs.

Comment: Iran obtaining nuclear weapons is a red herring when we consider that Israel is much more dangerous to stability in the region and has it's own massive undeclared stash: Also check out SOTT radio's: Behind the Headlines: The Art of The Iran no-Deal: Trump, Israel, And The End of The Atlantic Alliance

In a shocking admission on Wednesday The New York Times reported the FBI opened an investigation dubbed "Crossfire Hurricane" into Trump's campaign 100 days before the Presidential election.

The FBI was spying on the opposition party's campaign 100 days before the election. The spying was based on a phony Russian dossier that was paid for by Democrats and Hillary Clinton and by the hearsay of a low-level Trump campaign official who was coached by FBI operatives on Russian rumors.

Five agents, including Peter Strzok traveled to London in the summer of 2016 to interview with a diplomat after Papadopoulos drunkenly claimed to Australian Ambassador Alexander Downer he knew who had Hillary's emails.
