If the Left is smart, they'll start putting out shills and actors to go viral then exploit the situation later when the story falls apart.  I always keep an eye out for such things, and I wouldn't rule out this person or 'B. Tatum' from a few days ago as an element of such an operation.  If the Left are dumb, they'll continue to fund goon squads to violently interfere with other people's organizations.

The U.S. has scaled back its weapons sales to Saudi-Arabia in recent years. I guess the main reason is much less dependence on oil from there, also they could be making room for European allies whose economy is pretty much in the tank. I remember from last summer how the French were gloating about weapons sales to S-A and how that had created 30,000 jobs. Then Paris happened in November and in January the French President pinned the country´s highest medal on a leading Saudi fruitcake.

In a race with three candidates, it is not an easy feat to come in fourth. However, that’s exactly what happened to one candidate in Tuesday’s Arizona Republican primary.

With 99.5 percent of the votes in, Donald Trump polled 249,842 votes, 47.1 percent of the total, to win the state’s 58 delegates. Sen. Ted Cruz was second at 24.9 percent. Then comes the surprise. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., who dropped out of the race, beat Gov. John Kasich with 13.3 percent of the vote over Kasich’s 10 percent.

Arizona allows early voting, which is why Rubio, along with a smattering of candidates who had long since abandoned their campaigns, received votes in the Arizona contest....

Why Belgium Is Ground Zero For European Jihadis

....In metropolitan Brussels — where roughly half of Belgium's Muslims currently live — the Muslim population has reached 300,000, or roughly 25%. This makes Brussels one of the most Islamic cities in Europe.

Approximately 100,000 Muslims live in the Brussels district of Molenbeek, which has emerged as the center of Belgian jihadism.....

Islamic State Unveils Next Attack: "What Awaits You Will Be Tougher And More Bitter"

....Earlier today, Belgian prosecutors held a press conference at which officials detailed the latest developments in the search for the third suspect seen in CCTV footage shot just before two suicide bombers detonated suitcases in front of a Starbucks in Brussels airport on Tuesday. ....

"The number you have reached has been disconnected or is no longer in service due to bomb damage.  Your call has been monitored, recorded and logged by the one-world police force operating under the name 'Strong Cities Network.'"

Yes, that's sort of what I was referring to.

Russia is not expansionist or is "understandably expansionist," meaning we all know what they are doing with their gas pipelines based on their economic interests.  Way different than trying to spread communism worldwide is the point.

No calls from isis? Weird...

This is interesting. Brussels ran an ad last January mocking the notion of a terrorist attack there. I guess they can be excused, what with the headquarters of NATO and the European Union housed there. And then the attack takes place literally next door to those luminaries...

Brussels Ran Ad In January Mocking Notion Of Terror Attack

Published on Mar 23, 2016
After Brussels was linked to terror plots in November, the international media portrayed the city as a war zone. That’s because several of the Paris ISIS terrorists were from Brussels. They slaughtered 130 people in neighboring France. In January visit.brussels decided to change that perception. The group created #CallBrussels —- We gave people in Brussels the opportunity to tell how life really is in the city. From 7 January to 11 January, 12688 phone calls were made from 154 countries. The campaign was exported to the entire world: from neighbouring countries to The United States, Japan, Brazil and even Australia. 74% were international phone calls.

The action was also widely followed on social media. The hashtag #CallBrussels was used all over the world and became the most popular hashtag in Belgium at its launch. Over 9,317,000 people have seen the hashtag. --- The group ran this ad in January. Tonight the Brussels Group’s website got some feedback on their ad campaign... https://call.brussels/

If neither side were on an expansionist trajectory, working together on projects where it made sense would probably happen without effort.  I'm not holding my breath for a situation where we are all holding hands and singing kumbaya (and don't even wish to see it), but I do hope for a situation where there is a 'competition of ideas' where larger nations win over smaller nations by being decent to them and making 'good deals' rather than by sending in mercenary armies to shatter them and turn them into hell-holes.

My problem with NATO, and especially as it absorbs an increasing number of unstable countries, is that you get degenerate freaks like Turkey invading other nations when they see some oil they can seize then run back to NATO mommy if/when they get resistance.  If we actually wished to get rid of ISIS, WE should be bombing Turkey since that's where most of ISIS is living at the moment.  Certainly we should not be protecting ISIS from attack with our nuclear arsenal and making a very credible threat to bring on WW-III in doing so.

That's the age old problem of a standing army standing against risks that each year have a statistical low chance of occurring.  But that analysis is incorrect because "statistiocal analysis" does not work against an intelligent adversary who seeks nothing but the element of surprise.

Duh...

Well, NATO outspends Russia 10-1 on the military but I´m not sure how much they really have to show for it. When terrorists attack next door to your headquarters you´ve probably been pretty useless in the war against terrorists for instance. As for the supposed threat from Russia; NATO has no armies to speak of to counter any invasion of western Europe so they´re not expecting any invasion - I guess. It´s a gravy-train first and foremost.

Correct.

Do we have a nuclear threat from Russia?

Can and should we be working with Russia against common foes?

I like that republicans are supporting the anti-establishment candidate, I just wish that candidate was not Trump...

Trump is not the lesser of two evils

As someone who is hopeful about Trump, I'm not terribly excited about this either.

OTOH, it could be read as an indication that Trump is serious about dealing with some of the upcoming problems that will almost certainly be put up.  I've noticed that he takes every opportunity to enlist the support of the military and the police.  A person with Schmitz experience will have a lot of understanding and connections into the private mercenary elements that the U.S. establishment uses to project force.  It's only a matter of time before this force projection is directed inwardly.  To me, it's only a matter of whether these forces will be controlled by Globalists or by a Nationalist.  The latter is the lesser of two evils as I see things.

My sober assessment of things is that we are in so much trouble and so deep in the hole at this point that we may never get out, and if we do manage the feat, it won't be pretty.

In a slightly more hopeful scenario, I do have some hope that Trump is serious about addressing the crony nature of our quasi-capitalist political structure.  I don't think he would talk about it as much as he does unless he were serious.  Sure, he played inside that system and played well, but it is possible stand up from the table and leave.  (A situation which I have some experience with.)  This makes his threats to change the game somewhat credible to me.  Back to Schmitz (and the various other apparent scumbags Trump has fingered), it is possible that he knows that he needs people who 'know where the bodies are buried' in fields beyond his expertise in order to have a chance at making some corrections.

Trump remains a 'hail Mary' play to me, but still much better odds than any other candidate I've seen in probably forever.  Certainly anyone who has made it to the level Trump has achieved today.  I'm still with Webb on his statement that a Trump presidency could go 'either very good or very bad.' ...with the shared caveat that a Hillary one would go very bad.

I'm more than ready to see Trump align with some people I find more to my liking, but am willing to give him a pass until he stomps the rest of the Repubicans into the dirt.  Carson dealing with the education system is to my liking at least.  And, though it probably was not the goal of the article, I find it hopeful that the media noted that the names Trump named vis-a-vis foreign policy were relative unknowns and 'were not inside either of the two mainstream establishment camps.'

I'll also add that I was shocked and delighted to see Trump be interested in diminishing NATO.  I consider this structure to be outdated and one of the most palpable threats of triggering a hot WW-III.

Oh fuck me - you couldn't make this shit up
