Guest Column: Las Vegas ‘Final’ Comment

Keeping our eyes on the high priority threats
By Paul Craig Roberts [Full original column.]

Dear Readers, some of you keep pushing me for an explanation of the Las Vegas event. I have no contacts with people who might be involved in US covert operations. Some of you think that since I “was there with Reagan,” I know everything about what goes on in government. This is not the case for anyone in government.

Those of you who are so interested in Las Vegas must figure it out on your own. Keep in mind that there can be just as much fake news on the Internet as on CNN, etc.

I can offer some guidance as to the sort of things you could examine to help you to come to a conclusion. Unless normal police investigation was not undertaken, there will be crime scene photos that should show blood trails and blood pools. The kill area should coordinate with the alleged position of the shooter. Bullets that entered the ground should show the trajectory and direction that the bullet traveled.

If none of this evidence is available, turn to the available evidence. Do the videos of the people crouching and running show any one who is hit? Do you hear voices crying out, “I’ve been hit, help me!”? If not, why not? 573 casualties is a large number. Continue reading →

Guest Column: Las Vegas Shooting

It is almost like the story is being kept from us
By Paul Craig Roberts [Full original column here.]

Dear Readers, I appreciate the confidence that you show in me with your emails asking my opinion about the Las Vegas shooting. Many of you suspect that it is another false flag affair, and you ask me about its purpose.

I don’t know if it was a false flag attack, and if so, by who or for what purpose. I don’t expect to ever know. A story is set in place by officials and media. The only way to ever know is to personally investigate. You would have to go to Las Vegas, examine the scene, ask questions of the hotel, investigate the answers if you get any, find and interview concert attendees who were shot, attend funerals and see bodies of those killed, speak to their families, learn about the weapon allegedly used, experience trying to shoot at targets far below and far away, compare the number of casualties with the recorded time of firing, and so forth. In other words, we would have to do the job that in former times would have been done by the press, but no more.

It is almost like the story is being kept from us. For example, from media reports that the event was just across the street from the hotel, I did not know that “across the street” was a distance of 390 yards (1,170 feet).

As I don’t expect to ever have a confident opinion about what happened, I am not paying much attention to the mass shooting, or should I say alleged shooting. We are lied to and deceived so much that we can never tell when we are told the truth. It is like Dmitry Orlov says: Continue reading →

Guest Column: The War Party vs. Trump

The Witch Hunt for Donald Trump Surpasses the Salem Witch Trials of 1692-93
By Paul Craig Roberts [Full original post here.]

Editor’s Note: Not following the Mainstream Noise any longer, I can only imagine what’s going on and the level of brainwashing/trance-inducement of the general public in play. It has totally amazed me how otherwise reasonable people have surrendered all independent judgment and common sense by buying the unadulterated nonsense—pure War Party propaganda—Big Media is trying to shove down our throats. Thus Dr. Roberts’ post is exquisitely timed, please spread to everyone you know who retains half a brain cell’s chance of thinking for himself. The real problem is the continuing baiting of and assaults against Russia and the rush toward war.

We should be scared to death that Sally Q. Yates served as a prosecutor in the Justice (sic) Department for 27 years. In the New York Times Sally takes high umbrage to Trump’s criticism of his attorney general, Sessions, and blows Trump’s disappointment with Sessions into an attack by Trump on the rule of law. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/28/opinion/sally-yates-protect-the-justice-department-from-president-trump.html

Sally has it backwards. The rule of law is being attacked by the appointment of a special prosecutor to find something on Trump in the absence of any evidence of a crime.

In 1940 US attorney general Robert Jackson warned federal prosecutors against “picking the man and then putting investigators to work, to pin some offense on him. It is in this realm—in which the prosecutor picks some person whom he dislikes or desires to embarrass, or selects some group of unpopular persons and then looks for an offense—that the greatest danger of abuse of prosecuting power lies. It is here that law enforcement becomes personal, and the real crime becomes that of being unpopular with the predominant or governing group, being attached to the wrong political views or being personally obnoxious to, or in the way of, the prosecutor himself.” Continue reading →

Are You Ready to Die?
By Paul Craig Roberts [Full original column posted here]

This column by PCR will perhaps go down in history as specifying the most crucial choice any of us faces regarding survival of the human species, as well as our ourselves. He is absolutely right that lunatics running the deep state of the United States have chosen a literally Satan-worshiping path that leads to imminent preemptive nuclear attack by the US against Russia and China or vice versa. PCR also notes that NO MAINSTREAM MEDIA OUT- LET HAS COVERED A SINGLE STORY showing that nuclear war is very likely months if not weeks away—NOT A SINGLE STORY! [Excuse me, one outlet, the Times Gazette of Ashland, Ohio, covered the statement by the Russian armed forces directorate official below that Russia has concluded that the United States intends a preemptive nuclear strike against Russia.]

Further—and this is my own observation—the minor premise of the syllogism[1] leads to the irrefutable conclusion that the Mainstream ‘Noise’ is of no value to humankind, and, in fact, is working to be instrumental in its annihilation. Ergo, everyone interested in human survival, and the truth about ANYTHING ELSE, needs to completely sever all Mainstream ‘Noise’ connections, ASAP! — Editor, brw

In George Orwell’s 1949 dystopian novel, 1984, information that no longer is consistent with Big Brother’s explanations is chucked down the Memory Hole. In the real American dystopia in which we currently live, the information is never reported at all. Continue reading →

How Information Is Controlled by Washington, Israel, and Trolls
By Paul Craig Roberts [full original column here]

Dear Readers: I very much appreciate the support you show for me in your emails. I seldom receive a rude email from you, and when I do it is usually something off subject, such as a reader angry with Israel and unloading on me with an accusation that I am a coward and a “Jew-lover” because I don’t do enough to expose the crimes of the Jews.

This accusation always amuses me as the ADL lists me as an anti-Semite because I occasionally make an entirely justified criticism of Israel’s mistreatment of Palestinians and excessive influence over US foreign policy, as have many outstanding scholars, such as John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt, and many Jews themselves.

My friends find my designation by the ADL as an anti-Semite hilarious. The person whom I selected as my principal deputy in the US Treasury is a Jew. David Meiselman, my friend and co-author with me of an important study of the Congressional Budget Office, is a Jew (deceased). I went to Oxford for the express purpose of studying under Michael Polanyi, a Jew who had to leave his scientific post in Germany to escape the Nazis. Milton Friedman, an early supporter of the Institute for Political Economy, is a Jew (deceased). When my book (1971) on the Soviet economy was republished in 1990 without a word changed, it was a Jew who wrote the Introduction. He asked, “Why did only Roberts get it right?” Continue reading →

Book Review: We Are NOT Charlie Hebdo (2015)

Free thinkers question the ‘French 9/11’
by Dr. Kevin Barrett

HebdoOne of the things that makes We Are Not Charlie Hebdo unique is its timeliness. And for that we may thank the indefatigable Dr. Kevin Barrett—defrocked University of Wisconsin professor who embraced Islam in the early 1990s and, following the 9/11 Attacks, very quickly figured out that the official story was poppycock [his outspokenness for the truth led to persecution by a group of Republican state legislators and thus his firing]. Unlike the truth work that followed the 9/11 Attacks (which took several years to get started in earnest among minds of stature), Charlie Hebdo, a Barrett-edited compilation of several respected public figures and researchers, within only a few months after the January 7, 2015 attacks.

“A breakthrough in the study of State Crimes against Democracy (SCADS): Never before have truth seekers countered [an official false-flag story] with such a comprehensive response to a likely false-flag operation so soon after it happened.” — David Ray Griffin Continue reading →

Key questions for the liberty-minded concerned about man-made envirodamage
by Paul Craig Roberts [Original column here]

The mental convolutions in which some will engage in order to ignore the evidence that the polar ice caps are melting—and if not from warming from what?—is as astounding as the convolutions and denial of basic facts that characterize those who believe the government’s official 9/11 fairy tale.

If all the science is rigged, as a few of you say, by the Bilderbergs, Rockefeller, or the Rothschilds, then where does your science, your information come from? If there is no reliable scientific information about climate change, what is the basis for your argument? Why are only carbon industry spokespersons honest? How come the Rothschilds didn’t rig them also?

Yes, the carbon tax is another way of following the money, but it obviously leads in the opposite direction of where a few want to take it. The carbon tax is not a solution offered by climate scientists. It is the industry solution backed by the industry’s free market libertarian allies and Wall St, which sees it as another profitable trading vehicle. The industry sees it as a replacement for regulation and emphasis on alternative green energy sources.

The readers who assured me that the polar ice always melts in summer and refreezes in winter did not know that more melts than refreezes and that the polar ice cap is shrinking dramatically. Continue reading →
