Unraveled..

 


Acquitted..

 

A judge has issued the first outright acquittal of a defendant charged in the Capitol riot.

Following a two-day bench trial in U.S. District Court in Washington, New Mexico engineer Matthew Martin was acquitted on four misdemeanor charges by U.S. District Court Judge Trevor McFadden. Martin claimed that he thought the police had allowed him into an entrance near the Capitol Rotunda on Jan. 6, 2021.

McFadden said that, based on video of the scene, that assertion was at least “plausible” and that prosecutors failed to prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt.

“People were streaming by and the officers made no attempt to stop the people,” said the judge.

Prosecutors argued that broken windows and blaring alarms should have alerted Martin that he did not have permission to enter.

Most of the people went there should be acquitted. Just a thought.

Starved..

 

Western Countries should not use the Sanction to starve the kids in Afghanistan. It is Immoral


The Biden administration did not end the war, but continued it by other means, which are turning out to be more violent and destabilizing. 

The economic sanctions imposed by the United States and its allies are causing widespread, severe hunger in this desperately poor country.

Unless those sanctions are soon reversed, it is estimated that more people will die from the economic impact of sanctions over the next year than the number who died in 20 years of war.  

Aid groups trying to distribute food and save peoples’ lives cannot in many cases move the necessary funds, and the health care system has been collapsing.  

As a result of all this economic disruption, including the loss of billions of dollars of aid, 22.8 million people – more than half the population – are facing acute food insecurity. They include a million children under 5 "at risk of dying due to severe acute malnutrition," according to UNICEF.

Can't..

 




Oilman..

 


Mr. Biden, promised to reverse what the previous administration did just the first day in the office. Cancel Keystone Pipeline, federal land drilling leases... etc. In order to respond to his party regarding Climate change.

From then the trouble started by opening the Pandora's box. Prices went much higher, doubled and tripled. So, poor people are unable to afford heating their homes, gas, etc. 

The oilman asked Iran, the Saudis, the Russian for more fuel to counterpart the higher prices and the inflation. Will, then the Ukraine war, the sanctions, and the rest of trouble all started with our blessings. Prices went further up.

Then the oilman decided for the third time to release oil from the strategic reserve, so the OPIC will not increase production while we are releasing the strategic reserve oil.

Let us go back to basics. Start in the beginning. It was a mistake followed by several errors.

 Just a thought.

Sanctions..

 


US-led sanctions against Russia have not gone down well with developing countries.


Not a single country in the entire African continent, Middle East or Latin America has toed the US line. Is it again a case of the West versus the rest?

The claim that the West’s sanctions represent the will of the international community is therefore neither accurate nor factual.

One crucial factor that has been little mentioned in Western mainstream media is the fact that these sanctions clash with the interests of the developing world. 

Over the decades, developing countries have learned that Western sanctions, designed to advance the interests of the enforcers, will never do them any good.

Instead, such measures wreak economic devastation and human misery upon the countries at the receiving end, as demonstrated in Syria and Afghanistan, where children go to bed hungry and patients wither away for lack of essential medicine, thanks to the US’ crushing sanctions.

Foreign Policy that cares for democracy and the people.  Just a thought.

Furthermore, as the Chinese saying goes, a fire at the city gates is a calamity for the fish in the moat; the adverse effects of sanctions against one country too often spill over into other parts of the world, particularly poor countries.
