British doctors demand Israel be banned from World Medical Association

British doctors have called for the removal of Israel from the World Medical Association (WMA) over claims of "medical torture" on Palestinians seeking treatment.

Some 71 UK doctors have started to pressure the WMA to revoke the membership of the Israel Medical Association over claims that "our doctors perform medical torture on Palestinian patients,"said Ze'ev Feldman, the representative of the Israeli doctors, during a Knesset meeting held on the subject of boycotts against Israeli academic institutions on Wednesday.

If the British physicians succeed, the Tel Aviv regime will be banned from taking part in international medical conferences and publishing in journals. The move follows similar measures launched by scholars around the world over the past few months.

In December, over 200 South African scholars released a statement announcing their support of an academic boycott of Israel. In November, the American Anthropological Association, the largest professional organization of anthropologists in the world, approved a resolution to boycott Israeli academic institutions.


Comment: The PTB in Israel are afraid the academic boycott would have a domino effect and radiate to all other scientific associations.


Moreover, the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement against Israel, known as BDS, is gaining momentum in US college campuses and churches as well as in many places in Europe. The BDS movement seeks to end the Israeli occupation and colonization of Palestinian lands.

Comment: The torture of Palestinian detainees and prisoners has been an ongoing since at least 1995, but more realistically for decades and nothing ever seems to come of it. The IMA turns a blind eye. Accusations backed, for years, by hundreds of doctors around the world have been ignored. Men, women and children who undergo torture abuses are not being reported by Israeli physicians and there is no medical intervention on behalf of patients who are mistreated. Doctors fail to keep proper medical records during interrogations and without evidence, there is no legal redress for the patient. If the WMA doesn't address this, it is complicit.

Ukraine has slid into tragic poverty ever since the US-backed Maidan 'revolution'

Two years after the US-backed Maidan revolution, Ukraine is worse off than it was before - the country is sliding into poverty, Germany's daily newspaper Junge Welt reported, describing the life of ordinary Ukrainians as "staggering."

"Since the end of the Yanukovych era, the average income has decreased by 50 percent," the media outlet noted.

In addition, consumers in Ukraine have lost half of their purchasing power. Inflation reached 25 percent in 2014 and spiked to 44 percent last year, according to the data released by Ukraine's Central Bank in late December.

Comment: This is what a country can expect whenever the West begins meddling in their affairs. If it didn't already, their leadership will come to consist almost entirely of parasites, who bleed the people dry.

2 reasons why the decline of Russia's currency is a good thing

It may seem weird to be cheering on the decline of the national currency but now is the time when that is the right thing to do, journalist Tim Worstall wrote.

A weakening ruble is just what the Russian economy needs now, observer Tim Worstall wrote in his article for Forbes.

"It might seem a little odd to be cheering on the collapse in value of a currency. It does, after all, mean that the people of that country are becoming poorer. However, there are times when that is the right thing to be happening and right now in Russia is one of those times," the article read.

On Thursday, the exchange rate hit a historic low of 85 rubles to the dollar and then rolled back to 83.8.

Noah Chamberlin: Hundreds search for missing Tennessee 2-year-old


More than 300 volunteers late Monday braved the brutal cold to comb the woods for any sign of a Tennessee 2-year-old who has been missing for five days.

The search for Noah Chamberlin was expected to continue Tuesday in West Tennessee, but only law enforcement would be allowed to search in the daylight, according to the Chester County Sheriff's Office.

Despite temperatures in the teens, "everybody's still keeping faith" that Noah will be found alive, said Leslie Weaver with the Chester County Sheriff's Office.

Weaver told NBC News that "thousands" of volunteers have participated in the search for the young boy since he went missing while hiking in the woods with his grandmother and sister on Thursday.

The volunteers, along with officers from the sheriff's office and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, have covered more than 8 miles in the search for Noah, according to NBC affiliate WSMV. But no one has found any sign of the toddler.

"The frustrating side, the bewildering side, is that we've found nothing," said Deputy Sheriff Tom Mapes with the Madison County Sheriff's Department. "All this manpower, all the technical, infrared sightings, hundreds of volunteers going arm-to-arm through all these acres. Nothing, absolutely nothing."

Native American women disappearing at an alarming rate and police are completely ignoring it

In April of 2015, a Native American woman, Edith Chavez, 38, of Tower, Minnesota was kidnapped, drugged and held for days while on a trip to Casselton, North Dakota. According to Chavez, a man snuck up behind her and knocked her unconscious.

"He picked me up right off the ground," said Edith, "He was very strong, and I couldn't get away. There was a white flash and then I don't remember."

A few days later, lost in a fog from being drugged by her abductor, Edith awoke to the sound of a dinging tone from an open car door. She found herself in the back of a beat up Honda Accord with a missing back window. This was her chance for escape, as her kidnapper was outside of the vehicle.

"I tried to run," she said, but her vision was blurry. Luckily for Edith, however, she managed to escape into a steep ditch where her abductor would not pursue her.

Although Edith had escaped her captors, her ordeal was far from over. She found herself in a remote part of North Dakota, alone, and without food or water. She would wander for two days before finding civilization.

Finally, Edith made it to a police station in Williston, North Dakota, where she hoped she would receive help. But help was the last thing Edith received from police that day.

Instead of taking her statement, police ran her record and found a 4-year-old unpaid traffic ticket and threw her in a cell. She was then transferred to a jail in Minot, North Dakota.

This poor woman had just been kidnapped, drugged, and nearly killed, and when she finally thought she was going to get some help, she was kidnapped again — this time by those who claim to keep her safe.

Luckily for Edith, when a female officer, with a sense of humanity, saw her the next day in her cell, she noticed something was very wrong. The officer had Edith's charges dropped and she was brought to the closest hospital. Had Edith Chavez stayed another night in that jail, should could have very well died - and nobody would have said a thing.

Edith never received help from the police and instead of apologizing for throwing a distressed, beaten, and victimized woman into a cage, police issued a press release in June claiming Chavez had smelled of alcohol and had been to a casino. However, this was clearly contrived as none of this information had been noted in the day log or the Uniform Incident Report registering Chavez's arrest.

Comment: Happening in Canada too.

The next stage in Jade Helm-like psyops? Disturbing new Navy SEALs war games in Washington State

NAVY Seals
Did you know that the Navy SEALs just started a series of wargames that will take place in dozens of locations all over the coastline of Washington State, and will go on for at least another 2 years? I didn't hear about it until recently. Unlike the notorious Jade Helm exercise, which was widely reported by both alternative and mainstream news sources, this operation has received very little attention since it started on January 14th, and virtually no attention before it began.

There's a shocking reason why there has been so little awareness about these training exercises. The operation was first reported by Dahr Jamail from Truth-out.org, and only because an unnamed source leaked it to him. All the documents surrounding these wargames were labeled by the Navy, in such a way that no FOIA request would ever discover them. No public notice was given, and no relevant government agency was alerted at the local, state, or federal level.

Comment: If all the hoopla around Jade Helm was designed to get people riled up, upset, and making themselves visibly known objectors to the military surveillance state - then it is clear that this much quieter operation is designed to be a part of the next stage in the mass programming of US citizens. And this is probably only one of several that we happen now to be aware of.

Juncker: EU border checks will cost billions

European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker has said that adding border checks to Europe's passport-free area would cost at least three billion euros a year in lost business. Juncker, whose EU executive is working on revising the bloc's asylum-seeking policy, told the European Parliament in Strasbourg on Wednesday that every hour of waiting time at borders had a cost.

"One after another, we close the borders and once they are all closed we will see that the economic cost is huge," Juncker said, adding, "If we close the borders, if the internal market begins to suffer ... then one day we will be wondering whether or not we really need a common currency if there is no single market, no free movement of workers any more."

Juncker pointed out that he decided to stress the economic impact because of EU governments' "cavalier" attitude to the Schengen zone of passport-free travel. The remarks come as some European governments have pledged to close their borders to incoming refugees from conflict zones.

Comment: "How much of the most recent refugee crisis is social engineering versus simply the inevitable rot of empire is difficult to tell - though the fact that social engineers would be tempted to use a vast number of refugees created by their own foreign policy indicates that their ploy in and of itself is indicative of immense, irreversible geopolitical rot." -Tony Cartalucci

The underlying strategy -- of a manufactured culture clash, heightened tensions, the incitement of fear (underscored by strategic false flag events), and increased financial burdens (in the context of an imminent global market free-fall) -- sets the stage for an upcoming destabilization in many levels of Western/EU society. The timing by the PTB has been calculated and impeccable. Cue the chaos.


USA

Half million foreigners overstayed US visa in 2015

Nearly half a million foreigners who legally entered the US last year, stayed in the country despite the expiration of their visas, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) says. In an "Entry/ Exit Overstay Report" that was published on Tuesday, the DHS stated that, out of the some 45 million people who were granted non-immigrant admissions to the US in 2015, a total of 527,127 overstayed their visas.

As of January 4, 2016, up to 416,500 of those individuals were still believed to be in the country, violating the terms of their visas. This is while the report did not account for the people who might have illegally entered America in the same period. According to Pew Research Center, there were 11.3 million unauthorized immigrants living in the US in 2014. The DHS officials were slated to testify about the findings at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Wednesday.

Congress ordered the department to conduct reports on visa overstays in 1997. Lawmakers have been asking the DHS for years to provide the data, only to be told that the data could not be compiled.

The department has also been tasked with improvising an "exit-entry system" capable of accurately tracking all people entering and leaving the US. Foreigners who apply for the US are interviewed, photographed and have their fingerprints taken before heading there. However, the US Customs and Border Protection is unable to get those biometric information from every departing foreigner. This makes it tricky to figure out who has left and who has remained.

Comment: Of the 416,500 individuals violating their visa exit, this number does not include people who overstayed student visas, foreign worker visas and exchange visas. This number only accounts for those who traveled to the US by air or sea. Less than 1% of 45M overstayed and 99% were confirmed departures.

That the WH and lawmakers are using the San Bernardino false flag to justify revising the visa entry programs shows how legislation can be based on any social motivator, real or manufactured.

Two phases in the War on Cash

hostage pig
Back in 2008, I began warning of increasing capital controls that we would see in the future, as a component in the decline of Western economies (Western in the broad sense, including Japan, Australia, etc.)

Along the way, it occurred to me that, at some point, governments might collectively attempt to eliminate paper currency in favour of an electronic currency - transferred from party to party solely through licensed banks. Sound farfetched? Well, maybe, but what if the U.S. and EU agreed on an overall plan, then suggested it to other governments? On the face of it, this smacks of conspiracy theory, yet certainly, all governments would benefit from this control and would be likely to get on board. In fact, it might prove to be the only way out of their present economic problems.

South Carolina: New bill would force journalists to register and submit an affidavit of competency

free speech grafitti
South Carolina has long been known for the ridiculous and off-world bills its State House regularly submits to a vote. Indeed, the residents of the state are routinely subjected to a demonstration of the utter uselessness of the majority of its "representatives" as well as their lack of understanding and concern for civil liberties, Constitutional rights, and the general welfare of the State.

Enter another freedom-shredding bill submitted by the Constitutional non-scholar Mike Pitts, a Republican State House member from Laurens, S.C.

Pitts' bill would establish a "responsible journalism registry" to be operated by the South Carolina Secretary of State.

Comment: A great number of journalist mouthpieces at the big news networks and papers would be ousted with this bill. But, of course, this bill won't target them. It's aimed at real journalists with integrity who pursue the truth and refuse to toe the party line. As we tumble ever faster into outright fascism and the war on truth escalates expect more bills like this and more real journalists being targeted.
