NOW - George W. Bush compares "domestic extremists" to Islamist terrorists in his 9/11 speech: "They are children of the same foul spirit, and it is our continuing duty to confront them..."

@disclosetv

This was predicted 20 years ago, on 9/11 in real time during the attacks.

The New Scramble for Africa: Geostrategic competition challenges for France.

Africa in the 21st century has come to international attention for corporate investment in the largest potential consumer class in the modern age. However, western involvement is facing increasing pressure from multiple eastern spheres wedging themselves across Africa. Namely Turkey, China and Russia.

"China's foreign direct investment stock has skyrocketed all over the region, for example growing by more than 400 percent between 2009 and 2019 in Niger and by almost 750 percent in Chad. Even in Mali, where the conflict between militants and security forces is particularly violent, China is involved in commercial projects and infrastructure development," said Lina Benabdallah, an expert on China-Africa relations at Wake Forest University. 

"From 2010 to 2016, Ankara opened 26 embassies in Africa and Turkey's outsized presence in Libya now serves as platform from which Ankara can promote its ongoing effort to expand Turkey's economic and political footprint across Africa", said Professor Michaël Tanchum who teaches international relations and political economy of the Middle East and North Africa at Universidad de Navarra, Spain. He is also senior fellow at the Austrian Institute for European and Security Policy (AIES).

"Russia is looking to expand its influence as well as it has in other parts of francophone Africa, such as the Central African Republic. In Mali, public opinion increasingly looks at Moscow as a potential security partner if France was to take a real step back", said Mady Ibrahim Kanté, a researcher at the University of Legal and Political Sciences in Bamako.

While France's Operation Barkhane was concluded out of necessity, France's position has not improved. It is impossible for France to hold Africa without breaking international regulations. Human rights and humanitarianism are penalties that tie their hands. China and Russia can hold Africa while Turkey and bureaucracy loosens France's grip. Turkey continues to contest French influence after a series of proxy wars in Syria, Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh. Turkey can flex their muscles. They can work with radical elements in local populations. While Macron can only bluff, Turkey does not need to bluff. Their hands are not tied and instead they hold a sword.

— "Footage of recent drone attack that targeted Erbil airport, air defenses repelled."

🔗 Barzan Sadiq (@BarzanSadiq)

— Important to say that earlier today there was reports about US Consulate personal being evacuted due to "threats"

Anon: The incremental attacks targeting Erbil Airport's military wing are meant to send a message that Americans are not even safe in Kurdistan.

Sirens still ring out at the US consulate in Erbil.

The Geopolitics of 9/11: Aftermath of the Global War on Terror. 

9/11 was Osama's counter policy of hostilities with the west's interference in the Middle East vs Abdul Azam's wishes of diverting all their efforts to Palestine in order to target Israel directly. Azam ended up driving over a mine. And then the literal pillars of global commerce went up in smoke. Taking advantage of the crisis, Neocohenservatives in the American govt channeled the National outrage caused by an attack on America to carry out policies they had previously laid out in the Clean Break Report for Israel. 

The strategy they had outlined would essentially destabilize or destroy Middle Eastern regimes with anti-Zionist resistance to coerce the rest to step in line. Not everything went according to plan but the main objective was effectively met. Americans however, did not gain much as they were constantly turned astray from the supposed original goal of bringing justice to the attackers of the World Trade Center. The narrative evolved into eliminating terrorism so that freedom & democracy would take hold and establish liberal-democratic nations. This failed. 

Today, the region lies in ruin. The terrorists were bought or sold to other spheres cooperating with Israel. The big winner in the Middle East is Israel and they have the victory they wanted. Most of the region has good relations with Israel. Their enemies are destitute and conflict weary. Iran is often framed as the end goal and the means to an end. Many countries other than Iran were taken out. Iran simply existing helps justify military & defense spending. Taking out Iran directly was likely never in their interests. Otherwise they wouldn't have milked it for forty years. Resistance kept at death's edge is easier to maintain than new forms springing up unexpectedly.

The next phase is rebirth. Americans were used to knock down the board. Israel set the pieces back up. Americans are no longer useful. Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, Russia and China are strong players that can effectively police the region for Israel. America returns home as it has been expended and fractured. Still looking for those terrorists, they eat everything from the noise and shadows of those they initially pledged to protect from terrorism. They are ghosts haunting a carcass seeking to fulfill unfinished business.

🇨🇳☭ Global Times | PLA warships reportedly sail near Alaska, 'display of far-sea capabilities or countermeasure against US provocation' | 14-09-21
— "A website affiliated with the US Defense Department reported on Sunday that a naval flotilla of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA), featuring one of China's most powerful warships, recently sailed in international waters near Alaska. However, the report was deleted for unknown reasons on Monday.

If the report is true, activities by Chinese warships are likely a normal far-sea training amid the PLA Navy's rapid development of such capabilities, Chinese analysts said on Monday, noting that this could also be seen as a countermeasure against US military provocations on China's doorsteps in the name of freedom of navigation.

A four-ship PLA Navy task force, including a guided missile cruiser, a guided missile destroyer, a general intelligence vessel and an auxiliary vessel sailed in international waters inside the US Exclusive Economic Zone, off the coast of the Aleutian Islands in Alaska, on August 29 and 30, the US Department of Defense reported on Sunday on the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service (DVIDS) website citing a release from the US Coast Guard District 17."

Washington: Feds Drag Their Feet As Antifa Terrorists Emerge As Top Suspects In Train Derailment

https://national-justice.com/washington-feds-drag-their-feet-antifa-terrorists-emerge-top-suspects-train-derailment

Seattle – A 28-year-old Bellingham, Washington woman was convicted today in U.S. District Court in Seattle of violence against a railroad carrier, announced Acting U.S. Attorney Tessa M. Gorman.  Ellen Brennan Reiche, was one of two people arrested on the BNSF Railway tracks near Bellingham, near midnight on November 28, 2020.  Reiche was convicted of placing a ‘shunt’ – a device that interferes with train signals – on the tracks.

On ten occasions, shunts were placed in areas that disrupt the crossing guards where the tracks cross streets, so vehicles could have tried to cross the tracks unaware of the oncoming train.  On the night of October 11, 2020, multiple shunts were placed in three different locations in Whatcom and Skagit Counties.  The shunts triggered an automatic braking system on a train that was transporting hazardous and combustible material.  The emergency braking then caused a portion of the train to decouple from the engine.  Decoupling has the potential to cause a derailment—in this case—of tanker cars of flammable gas in a residential area.
