Dear Friend of America's Survival,
The guy who betrayed his wife is now screaming betrayal. That is disgraced Obama CIA director David Petraeus. "Petraeus says US betrayed Syrian Kurds in 'sudden exit'" was the CNN headline, just before Martha MacCallum interviewed Obama's former CIA director on her show tonight. Together with Senator Lindsey Graham and General Jack Keane, they are pleading with President Trump to keep American troops in northern Syria. But when did Congress ever vote for this? Graham and Keane wrote a Fox News article blasting Trump's decision. MacCullum failed to mention, in her introduction of Petraeus, that he was caught in an adulterous affair and betrayed his wife. David Petraeus, who was Obama’s CIA director, gave his mistress Paula Broadwell classified information. However, Obama Attorney General Eric Holder said on November 15, “We made the determination as we were going through the matter that there was not a threat to national security.” The day before, Obama declared, “I have no evidence at this point from what I’ve seen that classified information was disclosed that in any way would have had a negative impact on our national security.” They covered-up for the betrayer. Jennifer Griffin of Fox News confirmed that Petraeus mistress Paula Broadwell did release classified information in a public forum when talking about the CIA holding prisoners at a facility in Libya. It is likely that Broadwell got the information from Petraeus. On the show with MacCullum, Petraeus only conceded that our Kurdish "allies" did have relations with Kurdish terrorists. That's the real story -- how Obama ordered our military and CIA to facilitate the activities of terrorists. But MacCullum didn't bring it up. Why? For America's Survival, Cliff Kincaid

By Cliff Kincaid – October 20, 2019 Trying to fulfill his campaign promise of getting American soldiers out of illegal and undeclared wars, President Trump encounters opposition from Democrats and Republicans in Congress. This is a body which passed the NATO Support Act (H.R. 676) by a vote of 357 to 22 in January but has now condemned President Trump for standing by NATO member Turkey. If Congress had done its job during the Obama Administration, all of this might have been avoided. Remember that Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) had introduced legislation to curb the Obama administration’s pro-terrorist policy, in the form of legislation called the Stop Arming Terrorists bill. This is the same member of Congress now being attacked by Hillary Clinton, Obama’s former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential candidate. Hillary implies that Gabbard is a Russian agent for opposing the war in Syria. Obama's support for terrorism did not get the kind of attention that the media, led by the Washington Post and New York Times, lavished on anonymous but false charges from unnamed intelligence officials regarding Russia supposedly helping Trump during the 2016 campaign. Looking back, perhaps we can safely conclude that Russia-gate was designed to divert the public’s attention away from Obama’s involvement -- and the involvement of the CIA -- in supporting terrorism in Syria. While Rep. Gabbard has some typical left-wing views and gave a bizarre “Yoga Day” speech at the U.N. years ago, we noted at the time of Trump’s election to the presidency that she had emerged as an independent voice in the Democratic Party who is willing to blow the whistle on a pro-terrorist Obama Deep State policy that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands in the Middle East. In this area, she strikes a chord with President Trump and many of his conservative supporters. Interestingly, Trump met with Gabbard when he was assembling his cabinet and grappling with Obama’s foreign policy legacy. She reportedly said that Trump “asked her to meet with him about the country's policies regarding Syria, the fight against terrorist groups and other foreign policy challenges.” This isn’t something Republicans or Democrats want to talk about, since many were implicated in Obama’s destruction of Libya, Syria, and much of the Middle East. Instead, in support of the so-called NATO Support Act, the vast majority of House Republicans joined Democrats to pass the bill in January by a vote of 357 to 22, after members of both parties gave impassioned speeches for why the NATO alliance was so vital to preserve and protect. Yet, when NATO member Turkey engages in a border security operation in Syria, to protect its people from the Communist Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) and other terrorists, most members of Congress condemned Turkey and Trump. Indeed, in this latest vote, 129 Republicans joined 225 Democrats in condemning Trump for finally getting U.S. troops out of northern Syria. Only 60 members of the House -- all Republicans – voted for Trump’s position. Let’s understand that Congress failed to authorize the military intervention by Obama but objected when Trump does his constitutional duty by getting U.S. forces out of harm’s way. This serves to validate the point made by Republican Senator Rand Paul – that the U.S. military presence in Syria is the result of an illegal policy. “The Constitution is quite clear,” Senator Paul notes. “No authorization has ever been given for the use of force in Syria. No authorization of declaration of war. No permission to be there at all. So if they want to insert themselves into this civil war, by all means, let’s have a debate. Let’s have the constitutional debate. But I, for one, am not willing to send one young man or one young woman -- one soldier -- over there without a clear mission. There is no clear mission.” The picture is confused by right-wing commentators and conservative web sites being critical of Trump’s decision to withdraw American forces from Syria. What was the alternative? To keep U.S. troops in northern Syria and have them wage war against the Turkish Armed Forces? It would have gotten American troops killed. And it would have defeated the purpose of having NATO members take more care of their own security needs. My survey of various conservative news sites showed that most had a knee-jerk response in favor of our Marxist Kurdish “allies” and the Christians who fought alongside them in a front called the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and have ended up as human shields. Many Christians, here and abroad, forget the Kurdish involvement in the genocide against the Christians in Armenia in 1915. As Trump has said, the Kurds have always fought for themselves and their own interests. Their long-time ally has been Moscow, not Washington. What we can also say with certainty is that much of this conflict and bloodshed resulted from President Barack Hussein Obama’s policy of using John Brennan’s CIA to funnel $1 billion to various groups fighting the Assad regime in Syria. That cost figure was applied by the New York Times when it noted that Trump’s first CIA director, Mike Pompeo, had pulled the plug on that dangerous and expensive program. The Times, however, indicated no interest in identifying the Deep State operatives behind the policy with blood on their hands. The fact is that Obama’s CIA director, John Brennan was in charge of an Obama policy that decimated the Middle East by producing an estimated 500,000 dead with seemingly endless wars that produced millions of refugees. And the crisis is ongoing, now with Turkey finally acting to clean up part of the mess on its own border. For opposing this policy from within the Democratic Party, Gabbard finds herself under attack. But Hillary & Company have picked on the wrong target. Gabbard served two tours of duty in the Middle East, and continues her service as a major in the Army National Guard. She understands the cost of American involvement in military conflict. As a presidential candidate, one of her legislative priorities, H.Res.411, declares that “if the President initiates wars without prior congressional declarations, such action shall constitute impeachable ‘high crimes and misdemeanors,’ which shall cause the House of Representatives to vote articles of impeachment.” Even without such legislation, of course, Obama could have been impeached. It is still not too late to investigate this policy and expose those behind it. For her part, Gabbard has promised to continue “calling for an end America's interventionist wars of regime change that have cost our nation trillions of dollars and thousands of lives, simultaneously creating more devastation, human suffering and refugees in the countries where U.S. regime change war is waged.” It is a charge that is demonstrably true but which damages Obama, not Trump. After all, Trump is trying to extricate the U.S. from this misery and death. This fact helps explain why Hillary and her Deep State backers are so desperate to smear Gabbard – and defeat Trump. Dear Friend of America's Survival,
Senator Rand Paul is correct, "No authorization has ever been given for the use of force in Syria. No authorization of declaration of war. No permission to be there at all. " One major myth is that the Marxist Kurdish PYG is an American ally. That was Obama's illegal policy.The CIA spent $1 billion to destabilize Syria. Trump is getting us out. By contrast, Turkey is a real ally, a member of NATO since 1952. That'a almost 70 years. My column notes: Many Republicans and Democrats seem to think American national security lies with several thousand communist terrorist homeless Kurdish fighters, who are devoted to a mythical "Kurdistan," over and above the Turkish Armed Forces, the second largest standing military force in NATO. Turkish Television has a good video on the connections between the communist terrorist PKK and the YPG (supported by Obama). Watch it here.

Trump is shutting down Obama's illegal and costly secret war in Syria. Trump began the shutdown when the New York Times acknowledged in August 2017, "Behind the Sudden Death of a $1 Billion Secret C.I.A. War in Syria." The paper said: During a White House briefing early last month, the C.I.A. director, Mike Pompeo, recommended to President Trump that he shut down a four-year-old effort to arm and train Syrian rebels. The president swiftly ended the program...Critics in Congress had complained for years about the costs — more than $1 billion over the life of the program — and reports that some of the C.I.A.-supplied weapons had ended up in the hands of a rebel group tied to Al Qaeda further sapped political support for the program. Obama secretly authorized the CIA to begin arming Syria's "rebels" in 2013. Why did Republicans and Democrats in Congress allow this to happen?

This is actualy a story headline about a UN activity: UNEP report reveals role of gender in waste management. The report, entitled, The Gender and waste nexus: experiences from Bhutan, Mongolia and Nepal, explores "the gendered patterns in each segment of the waste sector and waste hierarchy in these countries. " For example, an employee of a private waste management company in Bhutan says, “there are only men in collection because women cannot handle emptying the heavy dustbins.” This is deemed a "gender based stereotype," rather than common sense.

People are waking up! Check out, "Yes, Trump Is Right to Withdraw from Syria and Let Turkey Deal With the PKK," at PJ Media. Michael van der Galien writes: ... the "allies" Trump supposedly turned "his back on" are actually members of an internationally recognized terrorist organization. The PKK and its affiliated branches -- all those "Kurdish groups" in Syria are branches of the PKK -- have been responsible for many thousands, even tens of thousands of deaths. Turkish members of the security forces and Turkish civilians have been murdered by these Marxist-Leninist thugs. For America's Survival, Cliff Kincaid Dear Friend of America's Survival,
Our new column, "The Next Ilhan Omar Could Be a Kurd," is up at Canada Free Press and Renew America. It's also in our own Special Reports section. Excerpt: Trump is right: Washington is insane. It seems like the Deep State is promoting Moscow's objectives in the region. When Trump pushes back, he is accused of serving Moscow's interests. It's a massive scam.
