Ancient ruins in the middle of the Pacific ocean could be the remnants of a legendary race or dare we say....Atlantis.

Clips from the Science Channel series What on Earth? reveal images of a mysterious location just off the coast of the tiny nation of Micronesia.

The remote island of Pohnpei is home to the archaeological site of Nan Madol, yet very little is known about the area and the ruins that reside there.

Comment: Many ancient cities and civilizations have been discovered in recent years:

Late Tsarist Russia was socially liberal compared to France, England, and Germany

"Tsarist Russia was this superstitious land of icons and cockroaches with Cossacks on thot patrol with nagaikas in hand - and it was absolutely horrific!" - Liberals, Marxists.

"Tsarist Russia was this superstitious land of icons and cockroaches with Cossacks on thot patrol with nagaikas in hand - and it was absolutely great!" - Neoreactionaries.

Reality: It was in many respects socially liberal even by the standards of Western Europe.

Yes, Stolypin's neckties and all that. What Communist propagandists don't like to mention as much is that just during the three years 1904-1907 some 4,500 Tsarist officials were murdered by what would today be classified as Far Left terrorist groups. In contrast, there were just 6,321 executions from 1825 to 1917. This is basically a rounding error by the standards of the Bolsheviks' multicultural Coalition of the Fringes, including during their "progressive" Trotskyist phase that Western leftist academics and journalists love to laud so much. It doesn't even compare unfavorably with the 16,000 or so executions in the US since 1700.

Tsar Nicholas II, last emperor of Russia

Comment: As Professor Charles Sarolea wrote in the June 1925 edition of The English Review:
On closer examination we find that the [late tsarist] Russian state was a vast federation of 50,000 small peasant republics, obedient to its own laws and even possessing its own tribunals of 'Starotsas' (elders). The Russian state was not undemocratic - on the contrary, if anything, there was too much democracy.

Is the Holodomor a fascist lie?

holodomor
(Author's note: In this article I rely heavily on the evidence cited in the research of Mark Tauger of West Virginia University. Tauger has spent his professional life studying Russian and Soviet famines and agriculture. He is a world authority on these subjects, and is cordially disliked by Ukrainian nationalists and anticommunists generally because his research explodes their falsehoods.)

The Ukrainian nationalist film "Bitter Harvest" propagates lies invented by Ukrainian nationalists. In his review Louis Proyect propagates these lies.

Proyect cites Jeff Coplon's 1988 Village Voice article "In Search of a Soviet Holocaust: A 55-Year-Old Famine Feeds the Right." In it Coplon shows that the leading "mainstream" anticommunist Western experts on Soviet history rejected any notion of a deliberate famine aimed at Ukrainians. They still reject it. Proyect fails to mention this fact.

There was a very serious famine in the USSR, including (but not limited to) the Ukrainian SSR, in 1932-33. But there has never been any evidence of a "Holodomor" or "deliberate famine," and there is none today.

The "Holodomor" fiction was invented in by Ukrainian Nazi collaborators who found havens in Western Europe, Canada, and the USA after the war. An early account is Yurij Chumatskij, Why Is One Holocaust Worth More Than Others? published in Australia in 1986 by "Veterans of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army" this work is an extended attack on "Jews" for being too pro-communist.

The UN's Edmond Mulet and the children he "exported"

The UN's Edmond Mulet and the children he
© UN/U.I.T/I. WoodEdmond Mulet arrested and accused of breaking Guatemalan adoption laws by taking babies out of the country with "tourist" visas.
During the early 80s, Edmond Mulet, who currently serves as the UN's Assistant Secretary General for Peacekeeping Operations, was a young lawyer involved in an adoption network. On two occasions he got in trouble with the law. In 1981 he was even arrested and accused of breaking Guatemalan adoption laws by taking babies out of the country with "tourist" visas. He claims he wasn't managing an adoption. He claims he was acting out of humanitarian concern for the children's welfare. According to a former member of the special prosecutor's office who worked with United Nations Commision against Impunity in Guatemala, Mulet's scheme circumvented legal controls and left children helpless. He was never tried or sentenced. A number of legal records and other documents uncovered in recent years clearly illustrate how this scheme worked and how he used his political connections in order to avoid being investigated for his actions.

Newly discovered historical documents reveal Hitler only joined the Nazis after being rejected by far-right party

Adolf Hitler didn't always have his heart set on joining the Nazis, it seems. According to a newly uncovered document, the German dictator was denied membership of a much larger far-right party, forcing him to look elsewhere. The rest, as they say, is history.

How different it all could have been for Hitler, Germany and the rest of the world if the German Socialist Party had simply accepted the angry lance corporal's membership request in 1919.

A previously unpublished document found at the Institute of Contemporary History in Munich shows that Hitler might never have risen to prominence at all, according to Thomas Weber, a history professor at the University of Aberdeen.

Paul Craig Roberts: The Kennedy Assassination

JFK's Motorcade
Dear Readers, some of you are pushing me to continue with the Las Vegas shooting story while others are asking to know what to make of the release of files pertaining to President Kennedy's assassination. I appreciate that you are interested and are unsatisfied with official explanations.

My answer is that we already know, thanks to exhaustively researched books such as James W. Douglass' JFK and the Unspeakable (Simon & Schuster, 2008), far more than is in the released files.

My answer is also that it doesn't matter what we know or what the facts are, the official story will never be changed. For example, we know as an absolute indisputable fact that Israel intentionally attacked the USS Liberty inflicting enormous casualties on US Navy personnel, and the US government continues the coverup that it was all a mistake despite unequivocal statements to the contrary by the Moorer Commission, led by Admiral Tom Moorer, former Chief of Naval Operations and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

My answer also is that time is better spent in trying to prevent conspiracies in the making, such as the endless stream of lies and accusations against Russia that are turning a friendly country into an enemy and renewing the risk of nuclear armageddon. Indeed, the biggest conspiracy theory of the present time is the one issuing from the military/security complex, the Democratic National Committee, and the presstitute media that Russia in collusion with Donald Trump hacked the US presidential election.

British government 'covered up' its role in Amritsar massacre in India

The government has been accused of covering up the full extent of the UK's support for India's bloody crackdown on Sikhs in 1984.

A new report calls for a full inquiry into the role played by Margaret Thatcher's government in the events leading up to a massacre in which hundreds, possibly thousands, of Sikhs and Indian soldiers died.

In 2014 David Cameron ordered a review after the accidental release of secret documents revealed that a British SAS officer had been drafted in to advise the Indian authorities on removing armed Sikh militants from the Golden Temple at Amritsar, Sikhism's holiest shrine.

The documents said the plan, known as Operation Blue Star, was carried out with the full knowledge of the Thatcher government.

JFK files prove reality of US false flag operations

JFK Castro

A damning document revealed in the JFK files that the US government planned to stage false flag attacks inside the United States to start a bogus war.

In spite of Donald Trump caving to the CIA and holding back hundreds of the classified files-which the government had 50 years to alter - there are still some admissions that are simply jaw-dropping. What was once the talk of conspiracy theories - such as false flag attacks - now has government documents to prove them as facts.

Because of humanity's reluctance to start unprovoked wars, governments must trick their citizens into thinking countries they want to attack are posing a genuine threat. This deception of the citizens is often done so through either real or staged events-carried out by the citizens' own government-and then blamed on the country who the state wants to invade. This act is known as a false flag and governments have long used them as a means of deceiving their citizens into war.

Comment: For a more in-depth (and even more egregious) look at revelations in the JFK files, see:
JFK files revelations: CIA mind control, assassinations, mafia, terrorism, and more:
On Thursday, much to the chagrin of anyone seeking transparency, the US government released 2,800 previously classified files relating to the assassination of John F Kennedy while holding back several hundred more. President Donald Trump delayed the release of the others, saying he had "no choice" but to consider "national security, law enforcement, and foreign affairs concerns" raised mostly by the FBI and CIA. As TFTP predicted, the JFK files were no smoking gun. However, many of the documents contained in them reveal and confirm the absolutely horrifying practices of the world's most insidious spying agency.

In an amazing act of citizen journalism, Thursday night, the internet pored over the documents, including all of our staff here at TFTP. The information gleaned from these previously Top Secret documents reveals the dark truth about the CIA's covert, murderous, criminal, and outright terroristic workings.

From mind control to media control to working with the mafia and using covert chemical weapons to starve innocent civilians, the CIA has operated in the shadows breaking international law and laying waste to anyone who gets in their way.

Sir Robert Peel's '9 Principles of Ethical Policing' as put to paper in 1829

Sir Robert Peel
Sir Robert Peel
Policing in America today is a far cry from what policing was like just even a couple of generations ago. While it needs to be said that there are indeed many good-minded police in our society, there is also a startling rise in a new kind of insidious police brutality in America. A new callousness where many cops and police departments appear to be preying on the American public while viewing American citizens as dangerous enemies that must be dominated at all costs.

Everyday another terrible video surfaces of an American being beaten, abused or killed by cops, and one has to wonder what the point of having police on our streets is if they cause so much distress and harm.

When the idea of policing was introduced, there were different rules of engagement. Cops today seemed to be trained for something quite different from the original police officers of civil society.

The Ukrainian Nazi Connection

Nazi salute

The Russian Embassy in Ottawa has created quite the controversy with its latest tweets about Nazi monuments in Canada. "There are monuments to Nazi collaborators in Canada and nobody is doing anything about it," one of the tweets noted. A monument in Oakville commemorates those who served with the 14th SS Galizien Division (aka 1st Galician/Galizien or the 1st Ukrainian Division). Another monument in Edmonton honors Roman Shukhevych, the leader of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army.

The Russian tweets were quickly denounced as "fake news." The Russians, said some historians, were trying to undermine the Canadian government with false claims. Those being honoured by the monuments weren't Nazi collaborators, they stated.

Even B'nai Brith denounced the Russian tweets. "Clearly, if there actually are monuments to Nazis in Canada we would be quite concerned about that," Aidan Fishman, the interim director of B'nai Brith Canada's League for Human Rights told my Postmedia colleague Marie-Danielle Smith. "The Russian government sometimes uses the word 'Nazi, 'especially in the context of the Ukrainian conflict, with somewhat broader meaning than other groups would use it."

Now the Russians are more than happy to try to embarrass the Canadian government, which has steadfastly stood behind the Ukrainian government in the ongoing conflict in the region. Suggesting that Canada allows monuments to Nazi collaborators seems to fit that bill.

But in this case the Russian tweets aren't fake news. They are accurate. Those who served in the SS Galizien Division were Nazi collaborators.
