The reason for the 1949 coup is not much different from the current Washington-London-Paris attempt for regime change in Syria.

“You Can’t Do It Just Because of Money:”40,000 Acre Farm Silences the Doubters By Going Organic
The world of organic farming is a complicated one in large part because many of the traditional ways have been lost.

That gap has been filled by companies like Monsanto and Bayer, who have taken things way too far by polluting the soil, killing bees and butterflies en masse, and even changing the very genetic structure of our food with new genetically engineered... more »

Aggressive Moths More Resilient To Climate Change
More competitive animal species, with males that compete intensively for mates, might be more resilient to the effects of climate change, according to a paper in Proceedings of the Royal Society B. Sexual selection can provide a buffer against climate change and increase adaptation rates within a changing environment, the authors believe. Moths exposed to increasing temperatures were produced more eggs and had better offspring survival when the population had more males competing for mating opportunities, three males for every female. read more

Trump’s Disastrous Syria Attack
[image: trump-s-disastrous-syria-attack] Over the weekend, President Trump celebrated firing more than 100 missiles into Syria by Tweeting, “Mission Accomplished!” They say if you cannot learn from history you are condemned to repeat it. So I guess we are repeating it.

Syria | Business as Usual for the Deep State
It’s been a relatively dull couple years for War Mongers and the Military Industrial Complex, well on the surface at least.

The UK’s House of Lords has just issued its long-awaited report on Artificial Intelligence entitled AI in the UK: ready, willing and able? And it leads with ethics as the core idea.

The trials of flat hunting in London
“Generation rent” is now a staple phrase in the housing lexicon – barely a week goes by without a news story about the plight of hard-pressed millennials priced-out of home ownership. Just over a decade ago, around a quarter of 25-34 year olds lived in private rental accommodation, by 2015-16 that had increased to 46%.

Dog 'cries tears of gratitude' after being saved from meat trade in China
This is the extraordinary moment a dog apparently started tearing up after being rescued from the dinner plate by a group of animal lovers. The female golden retriever, believed to be a stolen pet, had been spotted being sold by a vendor at a Chinese market known for its dog meat trade. Animal lovers raised money to pay the dog meat vendor on the spot. One of the animal lovers, known by her surname Xu, told MailOnline that the group comprised dozens of people. They raised 14,450 yuan (£1,612) to buy the golden retriever as well as around 20 other dogs from the vendor. The incident...more »
Russia Just Built a 'Terminator' (And It Could Go to War in Syria)
*Dave Majumdar* *Security, * No, not like the one in the movies. The Russian Ground Forces have started accepting Uralvagonzavod’s new Terminator armored fighting vehicle. The Terminator—which is a tank support fighting vehicle—is a new Russian concept for a machine that can support main battle tanks in combat against infantry in build up areas and difficult terrain using a combination of rapid fire cannons and guided-missiles. The Russians are buying the vehicle in small numbers to refine the concept and secure export orders. "The tank support combat vehicle dubbed the Termina... more »
Former FBI Director James Comey Is On The Interview Circuit
*WNU Editor: *There is now almost no coverage of the Syrian bombing in the U.S. mainstream media .... but a lot on James Comey. No surprises there .... the bombings completely undercut the argument that President Trump is colluding with Russia and/or that Putin has something over Trump. But that is not stopping James Comey, he is still stating that he believes that the *Russians have something over the President *even though he has yet to provide any evidence. ABC News complete coverage of its interview with the former FBI Director *is here*. USA Today also did an interview with... more »

Before Trump was anti-Cuba, he wanted to open a hotel in Havana
William M. LeoGrande, Professor of Government, American University School of Public Affairs at Politics + Society – The Conversation - 10 hours ago
As president, Donald Trump has taken a harsh stance toward Cuba. But his real estate company has tried twice to open Trump properties on the Communist island, allegedly even skirting the law to do so.
Is the U.N. Charter Law?
I think the question of whether the U.N. Charter is law is misleading or meaningless or both, for reasons that I hope this post will make apparent. But now that I have your attention, I want to sketch a few thoughts about the varied reactions to the airstrikes in Syria by the United States, Great Britain, and France. As Oona Hathaway and I have argued, the U.N. Charter clearly prohibits the strikes, and none of the three recognized exceptions—consent, self-defense, Security Council authorization—are present here. But is that the end of the matter? International law is fluid, and ... more »

BROKEN: The Atlantic discusses the new Naep scores!
*MONDAY, APRIL 16, 2018As always, a gloomy assertion:* No sooner had the new Naep scores appeared than The Atlantic published a hard-hitting essay by Natalie Wexler. Wikipedia describes Wexler as "an education journalist, novelist and historian." As has long required by Hard Pundit Law, she offered gloomy thoughts about the work of the public schools over the past twenty years. Below, you see the start of Wexler's essay, gloomy headline included: WEXLER (4/13/18): *Why American Students Haven't Gotten Better at Reading in 20 Years* Every two years, education-policy wonks gear u... more »
Observations at a recital
Yesterday we attended a musical recital. Everyone there was a parent spouse or sibling of one of the pupils, except us. Afterwards, as we were on our way to our next event (an unusually busy Sunday), my husband asked if I enjoyed it. “Enjoy” is not exactly a word I’d choose for beginners’ and learners’ music, but I certainly enjoyed meeting the people, watching the pride in the students’ accomplishments, and. . . wondering about the ethnicities. Four of the five children were from families of mixed ethnicity; three were Asian and Caucasian, and one was African-American and Asia... more »
Monday Morning, Coming Down - More reflections on the "War on Rationality"
*Saker presents Gone With The Wind* *Re-mastered* Looking over the headlinez in this morning's Newz it appears that the psychopathic press in the West is working overtime to cover up the public relations calamity that took place on Friday night. I read where* according to a very recent poll, only about 24% of Brits supported the attack on Syria. *No doubt those numbers also reflect public opinion in the US, Canada and the other vassal states. *A concerted effort, therefore, must be made to hide these numbers*. Ergo, we have headlines actually, I kid you NOT, claiming that Russi... more »
"Seven Nations in Five Years"
As the coalition of the willing launches missiles against Syria, led by the US, I am reminded strongly of a famous whistle-blower's talk about the neoconservative plan to transform the Middle East through regime change. Former four-star US general Wesley Clark's 2007 memoir, A Time to Lead: For Duty, Honor and Country (Palgrave Macmillan) describes a long-term Defense Department policy for aggressive regime change in the Middle East. You can see a clip from an interview with Clark here: *Salon* has a good review that traces the origins of the aggressive regime change policy to neo... more »

Fraudulence of the Democrats
In the interests of my mental health, I've taken a break from the Nooze and the Internet and blogging for the past several days. So I have nothing to write about the media feud between Donald Trump and James Comey, because spats between plutocrats have no bearing on how the bottom 90 percent of the American population struggles to survive day to day. I also skipped the over-hyped interview on ABC Sunday night, and I don't plan to waste my time slogging through Comey's self-serving book, let alone perusing the morning-after annotated transcripts of the George Stephanopoulos gab-fest ... more »
