  HELL’S BELLE SMELLS: Hillary For Apocalypse 2024? Does America's Quintessential Crazy Liberal White Woman Still Covet The Top 'Role'? TOM SIEBERT Are you not entertained? Face it: There is no scenario more darkly riveting than a Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump 2016 rematch. “ A witch is born out of the true hungers of her time. Thus, I am a child of the poisonous wind that copulated with the East River on an oil-slick, garbage infested midnight. I turn about on my own parentage. I am a serum born of venoms. I am the antibody of all Time .” — Ray Bradbury, “ Long After Midnight ” “ The most entertaining outcome (as if we were in a movie) is the most likely .” -  Elon Musk $ $ $ $ $ $ She’s baaaaaaaaack? Or maybe she never really left? Either way, her second coming sucks.  I’ve been percolating around this Substack for at least a year, reluctant to articulate the horror herein for fear of manifesting its rancid reality. But the events of the past couple days have got me th

  The Israeli Angle, As War Talk Heats Up MARK WAUCK There’s no doubt about it that war talk is heating up, and events on the ground and in the air in the Levant are also heating up. Israel is once again claiming that if they don’t attack Lebanon today it will be tomorrow—or maybe next week, or … You get the picture. My guess is that this is one more rhetorical attempt to pressure the US into committing to a major Middle East war—something the US isn’t prepared for and doesn’t want. Israel isn’t prepared for a real war, either—who thinks the military that can’t take Gaza is ready for Hezbollah? Just a bombing campaign, but that’s exactly what could lead to Hezbollah unleashing its missiles. At which point everything becomes less predictable. The GOP’s utterly reckless and irresponsible quest for Jewish money has led to the invite to Netanyahu to gaslight Congress and the public. My guess there is that, with regard to the public, that’ll be like pushing on a string. The public knows it’

  Mossad and its network of little helpers, the Sayanim By David Miller for Al Mayadeen VANESSA BEELEY As I am hoping to organise a conversation with colleague David Miller in the very near future to discuss his research into the Zionist movement tentacles that have embedded themselves deep inside the UK governmental and public sectors including education - I am publishing his recent article for  Al Mayadeen English : The Mossad have been exposed as targeting the International Criminal Court, including directly threatening its personnel and their families. What else does the Mossad get up to? Zionist intelligence agencies launched a war on the International Criminal Court in January 2015. This was when it was confirmed  that Palestine would join the court  after it was recognised as a state by the UN general assembly. "Israel’s" intelligence agencies  routinely surveilled  the ICC’s current chief prosecutor Karim Khan, his predecessor Fatou Bensouda, and dozens of other ICC a

  Deadly Delusions: When the Plans Work All Too Well ALAN SABROSKY Prelude The first week of June, I watched all thirteen episodes of a mini-series called  Amerika  (1987)  I had briefly seen in part thirty-odd years before. Yes, I know it is a Hollywood production. Yes, I know it is fiction, just as I know that (e.g.)  1984  is fiction. Yes, I know many of the details re wrong for our time, most notably that the USSR is gone. Nonetheless, it shook me profoundly, and I could not understand why. Being a methodological Germanic scholar (perhaps a triple tautology?), I set out to understand why. I watched all thirteen episodes again, then a half-hour summary of the series in a program by the director and the key actors called “Storm Over Amerika,” and finally stayed up all night thinking about what I had seen and heard. Then I knew, in almost a secular epiphany. We had  already  been defeated and occupied, left and right alike (no nit-picking on terminology, please, I have no time for tha
