Calling the atlantic council facebook's censorship arm (???) is really baffling though. It's much easier to point out that a lot of the international relations / foreign policy think tanks normally get enormous donations from middle eastern and european countries / elites in those countries in order to help smooth over their image and prevent anyone trying to do anything about their criminal activities.Pener Kropoopkin posted:Vilerat literally did tech support for the state department's gun running operation in Benghazi.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:https://www.mintpressnews.com/atlantic-council-alex-jones-facebook-propaganda/247336/ I meant when I called every other mod a secret natsec guy, but yeah I agree. I didn't know they did advisory stuff for facebook. It makes the donations coming from the middle east even more suspect, since you know they're throwing money at advertising for pro-saud candidates and making sure that it doesn't get flagged.

Lightning Knight posted:I actually have no idea what NDI is, I won’t lie. The National Democratic Institute, it's a third party nonprofit that works on Democratic election stuff in other countries (working with election monitors, assessments, etc). It's funded by USAID and the NED though, so they also tend to function as an extension of US soft power. They're in Afghanistan now iirc doing monitoring stuff for their upcoming presidential election.

It's weird Pompeo is pushing this considering Bolton just quit because Trump is trying to ratchet down tensions with Iran. It's a brilliant move from Iran tbh, it forces Trump's hand because of his need to deal with the upcoming election / keeping oil prices down

Removing our nuclear weapons from Turkey is a forerunner to us booting them from NATO. I wonder if Trump is going to do it though.

genericnick posted:I'm sure the CIA didn't take over SAM batteries to mine cryptos, download child porn and shoot down Ukrainian planes. On the other hand, it is not entirely inconceivable that some form of sabotage played a role in the human error. IFF weirdness, radar glitches and overall inconsistent performance, just below the level that you're sure that something really is wrong. If I remember the Stuxnet story correctly, that was the initial plan until someone turned the dials to 11 and exploded the centrifuges. the united states' department of psionic operations (USPSI) under the ultra-top secret DoD PENTAGRAM program have mind controlled a large number of Iranian soldiers and operatives in preparation for a large scale invasion under President Trump this is a double false flag in order to inspire the Iranian government to commit further acts to give leeway to the western powers for an invasion
