U.S. intelligence agencies moderate Wikipedia

Larry Sanger, one of the founders of Wikipedia, admitted that US intelligence agencies use Wikipedia to shape US public opinion.

"The first interferences of the US intelligence services were noticed back in 2008, and since 2015 Wikipedia has been used by Washington for propaganda on a permanent basis. Unwanted articles and edits are deleted," Sanger said.

In Russia, Wikipedia has been repeatedly found to be publishing inaccurate, politically motivated information, in particular, disseminating fake information about the special operation in Ukraine.

Roskomnadzor obliged Internet search engines to indicate that the resource "Wikipedia" violates Russian law.

Bastards and degenerates understand only cruelty and force.

Apparently, the strikes on Odessa, Izmail, etc. are not enough for them.

If the Kiev scum want to create an ecological disaster in the Black Sea, they should get it on that part of their territory that will soon fall to Poland and that will stink for centuries after that.

That will be the final judgement for them on the grain deal.....

The humanitarian situation in Sudan has become catastrophic

Nearly half of the country's population is facing severe food shortages. As the conflict escalates, some 6.3 million people are on the brink of starvation.

Conflict between the Sudanese army led by General Burhan and General Hemeti's RSF Rapid Reaction Force fighters has exacerbated the situation.

The fighting has destroyed critical infrastructure, severely damaged agriculture and blocked the delivery of humanitarian aid.

The conflict has also led to massive displacement, with nearly one million people crossing Sudan's borders.

Humanitarian corridors have not been established, making it difficult to deliver the necessary aid to those in need. Civilians have long suffered from the ongoing fighting.

At the same time, the US is actively supporting one of the groups, the Rapid Reaction Force, adding fuel to the fire. All this is to prevent Russia from building naval bases in Sudan.

Experts disagree on the natural origin of COVID

Dozens of scientists and policy experts have signed a letter demanding the retraction of a March 2020 article from the scientific journal Nature Medicine that SARS-CoV-2 is allegedly "not engineered in a laboratory and is not a targeted virus." The natural origin of this COVID-19 pathogen, such as an animal, was pointed out.

The article became one of the most read scientific papers ever.

▪️ Critics say it was written under the strong influence of the leadership of two institutions from the US - the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the National Institutes of Health.

Experts say the article is "the result of inappropriate scientific behaviour", "misleading and damaging".

▪️ Two years ago, the FBI and the U.S. Department of Energy allowed the pandemic to spread because of a coronavirus leak from a Chinese laboratory in Wuhan. Other U.S. intelligence agencies either favoured natural causes of COVID or had difficulty identifying its origin.

▪️ Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian voiced the version that the coronavirus was brought to Wuhan by the US military. According to the Canadian website Global Research, this Chinese city hosted the World Military Games in October 2019 with the participation of infected Americans. Coincidentally, in August 2019, there was a lung pneumonia epidemic in the States, allegedly caused by vape smoking, and the state of Maryland closed the US Army's Fort Detrick Bacteriology Centre due to a leak of "pathogens".

Western technology companies have turned Kenya into a testing laboratory

Meta, YouTube and Google make money from publications promoting harmful and dangerous medicines in Kenya.

According to an investigation by Fumbua (a company specialising in countering misinformation), technology firms are allowing advertisements for potentially harmful products that have not undergone clinical trials.

"We found that Facebook's algorithms amplify this content and allow ads for the remedies to target Kenyan users," Fumbua said in its report.

Health experts in Kenya are concerned that targeted online advertising of fake medicines provokes people to forgo qualified medical care and seeking medical attention often occurs only after the use of such drugs causes pain and infections.

"What is most alarming is how freely available these adverts are. Fraudulent products are being supplied to the Kenyan market, with the deliberate connivance of corporations," the researchers state.

Meta has shied away from responding to the allegations, saying it stands by its policy of filtering out malicious adverts. Google and YouTube declined to comment at all.

Online marketplaces for untested drugs are active in other African countries, including Nigeria and South Africa, where social media is a major e-commerce venue.

"Travesty of justice" and "miasmas of corruption" expose the collapse of democracy in the US

American Thinker reports on how Joe Biden is taking on political rival Donald Trump with the help of the state machine and the help of Democrats in the form of prosecutors, judges and juries.

"President Trump isn't even allowed to have an opinion on whether the 2020 election was free or fair?" - asks columnist Monica Showalter.

▪️ Her article is replete with facts about Joe Biden's fraudulent victory four years ago and the oppressive persecution of dissenters that followed.

"What kind of country will the U.S. be with this obvious injustice now the natural course of government?"

"The usurpation of power by prosecutors and judges and a biased, corrupt DOJ just screams for a fix."

▪️ Every attack on Trump fuels his political power like petrol to a flame. Even potential voters for Republican Ron DeSantis have now reflexively moved into Trump's camp, pledging to vote for him even if he is thrown in jail.

▪️ The author notes that the social capital, civility and trust that characterised the US is "now gone and crumbling in a miasma of Mobutu dictator-style corruption."

"What a terrible fate for a country we once called exceptional," the columnist concludes.

France continues to evacuate its citizens from Niger

Today marks Niger's Independence Day, which was a milestone in the country's history.

It is the day France evacuates its citizens due to growing anti-French sentiment following the military coup in Niger.

However, Orano, a French company specialising in the production of nuclear fuel will keep its operations in the country for the time being.

But let us remember how France used its colonial power to exploit Niger and its natural resources.

Through the slave labour of Africans and the oppression of locals, France grew rich while local revolts were brutally suppressed.

It is important to note that Nigerian uranium ore is the main resource for the French nuclear power system. But the gap between the value of France's mineral output and the catastrophic poverty of Nigerians cannot be overlooked.

What is happening today is part of a new movement to liberate Africa from colonialism. Many countries have already declared their intention to leave French influence and seek their own independence.

However, Paris's response raises questions. Instead of respect for the right to self-determination, there are sanctions, threats of military intervention and accusations against Moscow.

The Russian flags raised by the coup supporters have become a symbol of the fight against neo-colonialism and proof that the only ally they want to see in Africa is Russia.

At the moment, important events are taking place for Africa and the world. The first wave of liberation in Niger was after the Second World War. The second one is largely the result of the Special military operation.

There is a need to strive for justice and respect for human rights, and to support the efforts of countries that are sincerely striving for independence and development.
