After the historic summit between the two Korea’s, President Donald Trump prepares the crucial face-to-face with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.  A meeting on the razor’s edge where Washington plays its prestige, and the Pyongyang regime, its survival.  Scheduled for early June – “in the next three or four weeks,” Trump himself said at a rally in Washington, Michigan – the goal of the White House is to achieve the denuclearization of North Korea. For this, Trump has imposed a strategy of maximum pressure, but leaving behind a key issue: the violation of human rights in a country subjected to a suffocating hereditary tyranny. Democracy is not what matters.  Neither the military intervention in Syria sought a fairer political system, nor the siege of Pyongyang is aimed at bringing down the darkest tyranny on the planet.  In Trump’s game, the benefit comes first.  If the Supreme Leader, son and grandson of dictators, executor of ...

This promise is part of the actions that the two Korea’s take to end war permanently.  “South Korea and North Korea confirm the common goal of obtaining, through total denuclearization, a non-nuclear Korean peninsula,” they said in a joint statement. North Korea made rapid progress on the nuclear and ballistic program under Kim, who inherited power after his father’s death in 2011.

I have seen different debates and discussions in the network related to, Alek Minassian, the man who was driving a van with which he ran over innocent pedestrians, leaving 10 people dead and 14 injured in Toronto, is mentally ill, a radicalized misogynist or a terrorist, or some combination of that?. For some, it makes no difference: people are dead, others are fighting for their lives. Many more are traumatized. Whether it was hatred or disease that made Minassian climb into that truck and turned it into a two-ton killing weapon, it don’t make a difference from any point of view to tell the truth. The debates or discussions within the social media will never bring back the victims or even heal the wounded from their traumas. Many think mental illness is to blame. This is mainly based on reports that Minasian belonged to a special needs program group in high school, and wandered the school halls “meowing like a cat.” Others believe that, Minasian is a violent misogynist. The...

SOURCE:  CNN IT’S NOT JUST THE OCEANS: MICROPLASTIC POLLUTION IS ALL AROUND US Apple is likely to stop producing iPhone X smartphones, according to Mirabaud analyst Neil Campling. The oversupply of chips and high prices are the reason, he says. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, or TSMC, the world’s largest semiconductor foundry company, is facing a problem with an oversupply of chips, and the company’s stock was down 6.3 percent on Friday. Because research on microplastics on land and in freshwater is still in its infancy, there are no accurate figures on the extent of the problem, but some studies have suggested there are more microplastics on land than there are in our oceans.

Taking into consideration the universality of the Iraq example, presumably saying that “generals are constantly fighting the last battle” likewise relates to their critics. Syria is Iraq only when facile associations substitute substantive contrasts. Outside the reality that both of these nations have been generally led by means of Baathist regimes which delivered enormous calamity upon people, certainly there is absolutely no other solid fact where Syria & Iraq are actually comparable . Around 2003, Iraq was invaded, despite the fact that there was absolutely no impending humanitarian disaster calling for any type of action within Syria, the establishment has gone on a rage ever since 2011, still just a couple of times has it hinged on restricted and instead inadequate armed forces strikes upon “humanitarian grounds”. Lets get to the nut and bolts of, Why the war in Syria will escalate! Its all about the Gas Pipeline, Yes, the PIPELINE. SYRIA WAR: IT’S ALL ABOUT THE P...

The moment the USA, the UK as well as France started strikes on 3 chemical substance locations within Syria, the action actually incurred disapproval within several quarters. The pre-announced attack bombed 3 buildings and lost zero lives, still, a few pronounced this a “dangerous acceleration”. Several talked of the “illegality”. Everyone protested regarding the neglect for the OPCW probe. Through this specific reckoning, they say that Syria has today gone back to its own status quo for mass execution by Assad administration. What about the Restriction regarding Chemical Substance Weapons (OPCW) inquiry? That depends upon what response is being solicited. Given that the OPCW’s don’t include allocating blame.
