  The Greatest Lies Ever Told posted by Em Sos via jenny, 2018-06-30 05:42:07
The Greatest Lies Ever Told seem to be oozing up from the graves of our ancestors and are definitely once again coming back home to haunt us. And as is the wont, man unkind, yet again, is attempting to put the genie back into the bottle, rather than face his own folly while History ceaselessly continues to remorselessly repeat itself, especially in our present moment.

America's Failure to Oust Assad and the Dismal Prospects for its Proxy Jihadi Fighters posted by Robert Fisk via stella, 2018-06-29 01:29:10

Almost overnight 500,000 Latinos hit the streets of LA and clogged the freeways in a show of force, demonstrating how quickly and easily a united front could wreak havoc if provoked.
