THE THESIS: One can use the same framework used by the gender industry to pretend humans are assigned a sex at birth to say we are assigned human at birth. No one has ever been born in the wrong body. No one is “trans.” Some people are gender dysphoric, gender-confused, gender rebellious or have been conned into believing they are unhappy because they were born in the wrong body.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Trapping people in an altered body risks trapping them in permanent defiance to God. Certainly, the Lord can redeem people who have been surgically and chemically altered for the “trans” lie, but only if people allow the Lord to wake them from the lie. Genesis 1:27 27 So God created mankind in his own image,     in the image of God he created them;     male and female he created them. When The Party succeeds in forcing people to pretend men are women and the reverse, they are conning, blackmailing or deceiving people into lying. That creates a wedge between them and God. Yes, the Lord is righteous to forgive and He expects us to let Him change us. We don't perform works to get redeemed--we will never deserve redemption and cannot “purchase it” with effort--rather, our works after being redeemed are a sign of abiding in the Lord, Jesus.  James 2:14-26 - Faith and Deeds 14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. 18 But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. 19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder. 20 You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless[a]? 21 Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. 23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,”[b] and he was called God's friend. 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. 25 In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? 26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead THE NEWS & COMMENT: Sometimes The Party is hilarious. “Russian Trolls fractured the ‘women's march.'” No, that march fractured women when they let men pretend to be female.  Sometimes it's tragically, cynically amazing: Time.com frets about what pregnancy centers will do with women's data . . . not what Planned Parenthood has already done.  Anti-Abortion Pregnancy Centers Are Collecting Troves of Data That Could Be Weaponized Against Women The Figurehead's bosses don't care, either . . .  Biden Prosecutes Man for Vandalizing Abortion Clinic, Still Hasn't Arrested Even One Violent Abortion Activist A woman in Iran was fractured to death and Twitter--which bans people for correctly calling a man a man because Twitter pretends it's “Christian hate speech”--just banned a woman for posting a picture of a woman murdered by the Hijab Police.  I've just spoken to @AlinejadMasih. @Twitter chose to suspend her account because she shared the picture of #MahsaAmini, 22-year-old Iranian girl in coma after she was severely beaten by the hijab police and later died. Why does Twitter keep punishing Iranian activists? Which brings us to the absurdity in which my $5,000 offer resides. Here is one of thousands of examples. Everyone who pretends that man is a woman is sinning by lying. Everyone who cons, blackmails or deceives others into doing it is sinning by causing others to stumble. Dylan is loved by God just as we are and it is not love to join into another's delusion.  A man speaks for women at the Forbes Power Women's Summit. He declared himself a “woman” in March 2022. Now, a few months later, he speaks for women at a women's summit. According to “trans”-activists, if a person ever regrets being surgically or chemically mutilated, they were “never really ‘trans.'” They are the same people who demand there exist absolutely no gatekeepers to kids getting chemically and surgically mutilated because, they insist, once you say you are “trans” that's what you are. In fact, the utterly disgraced Forbes published a hit piece on a teen girl! Chloe Cole is a “transitioner”, a young woman attempting to get her body back from gender-jacking “doctors.” Forbes attacked her because . . . she's autistic. I can use all of their tactics for my debate.  Forbes appears to have taken the article down, here's a write-up with some of its lowlights.  Yeah, Forbes removed it Another example of an absurdity that makes my case. If you use the made-up, nonsense word “transgender”, you are required to agree in full that this man must be allowed to teach kids while dressed like this. Why? Because, of course, gender is on a spectrum and “breast havers” should not be the only ones with “breasts.” Likewise, I should be allowed to teach in a naked ape suit.  Ontario High School Defends “Fetishistic” Large Bust-Wearing Teacher [AUDIO] - TPM's @LibbyEmmons talks to @oann's Kara McKinney @Nefertari_25 about a Canadian school defending a male teacher who wears giant prosthetic breasts to class: "This is a case caring for everyone but the students..." There was a “Let Women Speak Rally” in Brighton. This is what women and families face when they speak the facts about biology.  Language Warning: In Brighton today two female "trans" activists openly swear at and abuse a new born baby and his father. Accusing the father of  "Raising a little fascist". The #letwomenspeak rally was pelted with smoke bombs and several arrests were made as women voiced their concerns. Disappeared by The Party -  An unapologetic lesbian (@JoCampbell69) enraged #Antifa & trans counter-protesters when she stood on a trans BLM flag & smoked at the women's rights rally in Brighton. The trans activists accused the lesbians of being transphobic for not liking penises. #LetWomenSpeak In Boston, home of Harvard University  Language Warning: Violent far-left protesters are pushed back by police in Boston after trying to confront those protesting transgender surgeries for children at Boston Children's Hospital. BREAKING: email obtained by @realchrisrufo shows the Boston Police confirming they DID NOT receive a 911 call about a bomb threat at Boston Children's Hospital. Many questions remain. Will any journalists investigate? Harvard University: the place that made Ted Kaczinsky into the Unabomber?  The Atlantic, 2022 -  Harvard and the Making of the Unabomber; A series of purposely brutalizing psychological experiments may have confirmed Theodore Kaczynski's still-forming belief in the evil of science while he was in college. By Alston Chase Perhaps no figure at Harvard at this time better embodied the ongoing war between science and humanism than Henry A. “Harry” Murray, a professor in Harvard's Department of Social Relations. A wealthy and blue-blooded New Yorker, Murray was both a scientist and a humanist, and he was one of Lewis Mumford's best friends. He feared for the future of civilization in an age of nuclear weapons, and advocated implementing the agenda of the World Federalist Association, which called for a single world government. The atomic bomb, Murray wrote in a letter to Mumford, “is the logical & predictable result of the course we have been madly pursuing for a hundred years.” The choice now facing humanity, he added, was “One World or No World.” Yet unlike Mumford, Murray maintained a deep faith in science. He saw it as offering a solution by helping to transform the human personality. “The kind of behavior that is required by the present threat,” Murray wrote Mumford, “involves transformations of personality such as never occurred quickly in human history; one transformation being that of National Man into World Man.” Crucial to achieving this change was learning the secret of successful relationships between people, communities, and nations. And coming to understand these “unusually successful relations” was the object of Murray's particular research: the interplay between two individuals, which he called the “dyad.” The concept of the dyad was, in a sense, Murray's attempt to build a bridge between psychology and sociology. Rather than follow Freud and Jung by identifying the individual as the fundamental atom in the psychological universe, Murray chose the dyad—the smallest social unit—and in this way sought to unite psychiatry, which studied the psyches of individuals, and sociology, which studied social relations. This kind of research, he apparently hoped, might (as he put it in a 1947 paper) promote “the survival and further evaluation of Modern Man,” by encouraging the emergence of the new “world man” and making world peace more likely. Murray's interest in the dyad, however, may have been more than merely academic. The curiosity of this complex man appears to have been impelled by two motives—one idealistic and the other somewhat less so. He lent his talents to national aims during World War II. Forrest Robinson, the author of a 1992 biography of Murray, wrote that during this period he “flourished as a leader in the global crusade of good against evil.” He was also an advocate of world government. Murray saw understanding the dyad, it seems, as a practical tool in the service of the great crusade in both its hot and cold phases. (He had long shown interest, for example, in the whole subject of brainwashing.) During the war Murray served in the Office of Strategic Services, the forerunner of the CIA, helping to develop psychological screening tests for applicants and (according to Timothy Leary) monitoring military experiments on brainwashing. In his book (1979), John Marks reported that General “Wild Bill” Donovan, the OSS director, “called in Harvard psychology professor Henry ‘Harry' Murray” to devise a system for testing the suitability of applicants to the OSS. Murray and his colleagues “put together an assessment system … [that] tested a recruit's ability to stand up under pressure, to be a leader, to hold liquor, to lie skillfully, and to read a person's character by the nature of his clothing. … Murray's system became a fixture in the OSS.” One of the tests that Murray devised for the OSS was intended to determine how well applicants withstood interrogations. As he and his colleagues described it in their 1948 report “Selection of Personnel for Clandestine Operations—Assessment of Men,” The candidate immediately went downstairs to the basement room. A voice from within commanded him to enter, and on complying he found himself facing a spotlight strong enough to blind him for a moment. The room was otherwise dark. Behind the spotlight sat a scarcely discernible board of inquisitors. … The interrogator gruffly ordered the candidate to sit down. When he did so, he discovered that the chair in which he sat was so arranged that the full strength of the beam was focused directly on his face. … At first the questions were asked in a quiet, sympathetic, conciliatory manner, to invite confidence. … After a few minutes, however, the examiner worked up to a crescendo in a dramatic fashion. … When an inconsistency appeared, he raised his voice and lashed out at the candidate, often with sharp sarcasm. He might even roar, “You're a liar.” Even anticipation of this test was enough to cause some applicants to fall apart. The authors wrote that one person “insisted he could not go through with the test.” They continued, “A little later the director … found the candidate in his bedroom, sitting on the edge of his cot, sobbing.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sarah interrupts Madame Nancy in the middle of a seance, but hey, no better time for a podcast. After a brief discussion of their top five liquids (inspired by a recent interview with Malcolm Gladwell), they turn toward a 4000-word New York Times story about how Russian trolls might have influenced the implosion of the Women's March. Nancy thinks the story whitewashes the leaders' excesses and prejudices, particularly the anti-semitism of Linda Sarsour. Sarah finds the prospect of outside forces stoking civic discord legitimately worrisome, but both agree the Women's March fell apart because of in-fighting over ideology, money, and mismanagement. We turn toward a story in the Atlantic that argues against sex segregation in sports, making some head-scratching assertions about girls' ability to compete with boys. Sarah thinks it's yet another failure to balance equal opportunity with biological difference, while Nancy points out that even Serena Williams admitted to David Letterman she'd lose every game to tennis champ Andy Murray since men were faster and stronger — none of which makes women inherently inferior, since women have other assets. Have we mentioned we love breasts? In the hot box this week: Crying in H Mart, a memoir that explores a complicated mother-daughter relationship and how food connects us, and Michael Moynihan chatting with Andy Warhol's right-hand man, Bob Colacello.

The Russian Trolls decide to live a day as their American Avatars without breaking character -- just like Academy Award-winning actor Daniel Day-Lewis.... but end up acting like Suicide Squad Jared Leto instead. There are lots of bad American accents and ignorant portrayals of real 'Mericans along the way.

On October 4, 1957, the successful launch of the Soviet satellite Sputnik sparked fear of Soviet Union dominance in technology and space. In this episode, we’ll look at how John F.

We’ll also look at how 60 years later, threats from Russia -- this time in cyber space -- linger over our elections today.

On this episode of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Sputnik News Analyst Nicole Roussell to talk about Super Tuesday turnout in the battleground state of Virginia, why an age-based and racial divide seems to be separating Bernie Sanders supporters from those leaning towards the centrist candidates, what's motivating some of the voters turning out today, the extent to which the corporate media has succeeded in convincing anti-Trump voters that Joe Biden is the best candidate for the job, and why the most impassioned voters seemed to be flocking towards Sanders. In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Dr. Ramzy Baroud, an internationally-syndicated columnist, media consultant, and author, to talk about the news that embattled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears to have won yesterday's elections in Israel, why expectations that the Israeli electorate was suffering from a kind of 'voter fatigue' ultimately failed to materialize, why Palestinians increasingly perceive Israeli politics as having passed a point of no return and see little room for themselves in the country's political mainstream, why the Israeli government is never subjected to the critical media treatment shown towards other so-called "authoritarian" regimes, and why Sanders' refusal to kowtow to the Israeli government represents a kind of watershed moment for the anti-Zionist movement. In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by comedian and activist Lee Camp, host and head writer of Redacted Tonight, to talk about his new book, "Bullet Points and Punch Lines," how he uses comedy as a tool to break through the corporate media blackout on independent voices, how his evolution as a comedian and political analyst informs his understanding of his role in our political landscape, why the mainstream press responds to alternative media with such apoplexy, why attempts by such programs to expose moves to manufacture consent for US imperialism are labeled "divisive" by economic elites, the news of MSNBC's Chris Matthews' retirement, and what the timing of Matthews' departure signals about the limits of acceptable pundit behavior.Later in the show, Jacquie and Sean are joined by Ben Norton, a journalist with the Grayzone and co-host of the Moderate Rebels podcast, to talk about ongoing attempts to rig the Democratic nomination contest against Bernie Sanders and the mass movement coalescing around him, how their move to block Bernie shows that the Democratic establishment is less of a political party and more of a gang of elites, what divisions may emerge internally should the party continue with its plan to rob Sanders of the nomination at a brokered convention, why supposedly forward-thinking corporate outlets like MSNBC and CNN are choosing to platform right-wing ideologues like Ana Navarro rather than working people, Navarro's dark history of lobbying for far-right governments in Latin America while whitewashing the history of Contra death squads, how corporate media uses opinion journalism to obfuscate the class interests at play in their reporting, whether Mike Bloomberg's "Greenwood Initiative" represents a genuine attempt to uplift working Black people or an attempt to cover for his years of doing the opposite, what Bloomberg may hope to accomplish by staying in the race at this point, what explains the stark difference between coverage of Bolivian President Evo Morales' attempt to change electoral rules to allow him a third term and coverage of Bloomberg's attempt to do the same in New York, why Bernie Sanders' campaign has managed to consistenly outperform electoral expectations and what that success reveals about the emptiness of conventional political wisdom, and why Bernie Sanders may be the only option for changing the system while working within its rules.

Welcome to the fifth episode of Big Data, Big Issues. Today we will be talking about the Russian Internet Research Agency(IRA). The Internet Research Agency (IRA; Russian: Агентство интернет-исследований, also known as Glavset and known in Russian Internet slang as the Trolls from Olgino) is a Russian company engaged in online influence operations on behalf of Russian business and political interests. It is linked to Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin and based in Saint Petersburg. The January 2017 report issued by the United States Intelligence Community – Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections – described the Agency as a troll farm writing: "The likely financier of the so-called Internet Research Agency of professional trolls located in Saint Petersburg is a close Putin ally with ties to Russian intelligence," noted that "they previously were devoted to supporting Russian actions in Ukraine—[and] started to advocate for President-elect Trump as early as December 2015." The agency has employed fake accounts registered on major social networking sites, discussion boards, online newspaper sites, and video hosting services to promote the Kremlin's interests in domestic and foreign policy including Ukraine and the Middle East as well as attempting to influence the 2016 United States presidential election. More than 1,000 employees reportedly worked in a single building of the agency in 2015. The extent to which a Russian agency has tried to influence public opinion using social media became better known after a June 2014 BuzzFeed article greatly expanded on government documents published by hackers earlier that year. The Internet Research Agency gained more attention by June 2015, when one of its offices was reported as having data from fake accounts used for biased Internet trolling. Subsequently, there were news reports of individuals receiving monetary compensation for performing these tasks. On 16 February 2018, a United States grand jury indicted 13 Russian nationals and 3 Russian entities, including the Internet Research Agency, on charges of violating criminal laws with the intent to interfere "with U.S. elections and political processes", according to the Justice Department. Here is the content I am talking about in this video:► 0:26 - The Tactics & Tropes of the Internet Research agency ► 1:34 - The Data Set of the Russian Internet Research AgencyThere's over 10.4 million tweets, 1100 youtube videos, 116k Instagram posts and 61500 Facebook posts related to the US Elections ► 2:11 - Internet Research Agency (IRA) Background and OperationsThe company was founded in mid-2013. In 2013, Novaya Gazeta newspaper reported that Internet Research Agency Ltd's office was in Olgino, a historic district of Saint Petersburg. It had about 1000 employees, ukrainians, russians and americans with a budget of $25 million.The terms "Trolls from Olgino" and "Olgino's trolls" (Russian: "Тролли из Ольгино", "Ольгинские тролли") have become general terms denoting trolls who spread pro-Russian propaganda, not only necessarily those based at the office in Olgino.In 2016 the IRA conducted a set of attacks to disrupt the election process in the USA using cyberattacks on DNC, attempts to hack several online voting systems and conducted a massive social media influence operation. ► 5:20 - Goals of the Internet Research Agency (IRA) in 2016The goals of the Internet Research Agency (IRA) in 2016 were to create political division targetting both left and right parties. Means to achieve that are explained in the video. ► 12:28 - Ongoing EffortsAfter the 2016 elections scandal, everyone targetted by the IRA are making efforts to stop this kind of activities from happening again in the future. The social media companies voluntarily took down accounts associated with the Internet Research Agency (IRA), researchers discovered more information while reviewing the data sets. The truth is that it is hard to know what is going on currently ► 15:36 - Combating CybercrimeThe intellinge community and the tech companies are working together to build up a defense system to combat cybercrime To learn more visit our website:► https://bigdatabigissues.com/ Follow Sheldon Kreger on LinkedIn:► https://www.linkedin.com/in/sheldon-kreger-16054430/"The Tactics and Tropes of the Internet Research Agency"http://www.reneediresta.com/ira-report-4e8d0ff684.pdf 

Russian trolls are old news, but just how much they've been plaguing the military community has only recently come to light. On this episode, a conversation with a veteran who's been researching the problem and a military spouse who shares her story of being targeted. Both offer tips for staying safe online.

A two-year investigation by the group Vietnam Veterans of America has concluded foreign online trolls are persistently and systematically targeting US service members and veterans. Troll farms backed by the Russian government are some of the biggest malefactors, but they're far from the only ones. VVA said stopping the campaigns is going to require serious work by both the government and social media companies. To talk about some of those steps, Federal Drive with Tom Temin was joined by Kristofer Goldsmith, VVA's associate director for Policy and Government Affairs. He's also the lead investigator on VVA's troll report.

Imagine a world where one of our most critical instruments of democracy, voting systems, are connected to the internet where they are potentially vulnerable to hacking.Well, thanks to the work of Motherboard contributor Kim Zetter, we now know that's the reality we live in after she broke the story that researchers had found voting systems online, including systems in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Florida—all well known for being key swing states in presidential elections.But for years election officials have said our voting systems, used for closely fought Presidential election of 2016 and in 2012 when it was Romney versus Obama, weren't even on the internet and thus, they said, unhackable.CYBER recently caught up with Kim to discuss her massive scoop and how Russian troll armies might not be the thing threatening American democracy or scaring the intelligence community tasked with protecting it come 2020.

I decided to dive into the controversial subject of vaccines today. There seems to be so much noise out there on this topic and emotions around it that I thought I'd share my views. This whole things has been blown out of proportion on purpose and we're also being played by Russian trolls. These trolls are using vaccination as a wedge issue, promoting discord and confusion. in American society. However, by playing both sides, they erode public trust in vaccination, exposing us all to the risk of infectious diseases. Autism has skyrocketed over the last 15 years and the leading cause is pesticides specifically glyphosate.

Marat Mindiyarov worked in the nerve center of Russia's infamous St. Petersburg troll house. He saw the plan, reluctantly participated in the plot and played a key role in the Internet Research Agency. The organization conducted an operation to trick Americans on Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms into believing a Kremlin-backed disinformation campaign -- until he could no longer put up with the hours, the drudgery and diabolical plot. So he quit and began sounding alarm. Shortly afterward he was arrested. We have all the details on this episode.

We know that Russia attempted influence 2016 US presidential election through troll factories spewing out misinformation, and it turns out they've also targeted Australia. Find out what issue caused the troll tweets to spike in an attempt to influence voters here. Also on DTS, the EU Parliament has passed a drastic new law that could change how we use the internet and yes, Apple launched a bunch of new phones and watches.

  In 1998, Andrew Wakefield published his infamous and fraudulent article in the Lancet - a very well known medical journal.  In the article, Wakefield concludes that there is a link between the MMR vaccine and autism.  The article has since been RETRACTED. Indeed, vaccines do not actually cause autism.  With this article, an idea began to spread.      In this episode, I discuss the implications of the anti-vax movement and a recent article published in the American Journal of Public Health entitled "Weaponized Health Communication: Twitter Bots and Russian Trolls Amplify the Vaccine Debate".  In the article, the authors examine Russian Twitterbots and their activity related to vaccine-related tweets.  They divided robo/bot twitter accounts into 3 general categories.  Russian Trolls Sophisticated Bots and Content Polluters They found that while the "Content Polluter" bots tended towards anti-vax content, the "Russian Trolls" split their posts down the middle. The "Russian Trolls" posted BOTH pro and anti-vax posts. The key here is that the posts were polarising and divisive.  The motives behind the Russian bots are far beyond the scope of this article but the effects are obvious. The pro and anti-vax twitter posts serve to polarize the American public. The simple discussion of both pro and anti-vax ideology give credence to the debate.  The article discusses several important points: Exposure to anti-vax content increases vaccine hesitancy. Antivaccine advocates have a significant presence in social media. Vaccine hesitant parents are less likely to trust medical professionals.  Mere exposure to the vaccine debate may suggest that there is no scientific consensus, shaking confidence in vaccination. Point 4 is the most concerning. The debate ITSELF becomes a method for spreading disinformation.  This seems to stand in the face of the fundamental beliefs of modern science and medicine! As physicians, we believe that we must ALWAYS continue to reflect, debate and analyze all the data in front of us. But what if the simple act of analysis can lead to patients to take actions that might lead to their death? The problem isn't that physicians and scientists are always questioning the data. The problem comes when untrained individuals attempt to "do their research" on their own. You don't see me "doing my research" on whether or not Tesla should use lithium cobalt oxide or NCA batteries in their new cars. I wouldn't know how to frame the question. I might be able to figure out the basic differences between the two batteries but I don't have the ability to understand how the differences between the batteries fit into the entire car manufacturing industry as a whole. Much less how it might affect safety, pricing or Tesla's business model and future.  The goal of this podcast episode is not to offer a complete solution to the anti-vax problem. Instead, I want to reframe how we think about the issue. You cannot fight the anti-vax movement with facts alone. Confirmation bias is strong and often facts don't change minds. The anti-vax movement is a public health problem and should be addressed with the same rigor that we address any other public health issue. While the clinicians gut reaction is to spout out facts and data regarding vaccine safety, this may not be the best way to approach the problem. I do not attempt to propose a solution here. I suspect the solution will be complex and multi-disciplinary. Instead, I want to encourage the clinician to FULLY empathize with the friend, patient or family member with anti-vax ideology.  Such people are not trained with the same scientific rigor as scientists and doctors. They often lack the critical thinking ability to properly analyze the data they are presented with. Finally, even if they have these abilities, they don't have the fundamental medical knowledge required to interpret the data. This is not to belittle or insult, this is simply the truth. As I mention in the podcast: "I don't claim to understand which type of rocket fuel is the best for a Mars mission."  I wouldn't be insulted if you said that I lack the overall understanding of rocket science to fully comprehend why one fuel might be better than another. Nor do I know where to find reliable sources to acquire this data. Is there a PubMed for rocket science? Probably, but I don't know what it is.  I want to be crystal clear here - this is not to say that ALL scientific discourse is bad. Quite the opposite. We must continue to research, gather data and gain knowledge. However, you must caution the "amateur internet investigator" that they may not have the basic training to understand what they are reading. We must consider that a simple rebuttal of facts is NOT always good enough to change someone's mind. Finally, as clinicians, we must be aware of the propagation of these ideas and address them with rigor and method - not off hand dismissal.    I hope you enjoy this episode - MCP is back! I am now working full time with my startup Carenade Health but will start publishing again.    Weaponized Health Communication: Twitter Bots and Russian Trolls Amplify the Vaccine Debate    So what do you think? Do you have a solution to the Anti-vax movement?      

This week, the guys go off the hook once again. Enjoy it!

Shots fired at IDF on Gaza border Moments ago violence erupted along the Israel-Gaza border, amidst rumors of a pending ceasefire deal that's now seeming less and less likely. Palestinians near the border have opened fire on a group of I-D-F soldiers stationed in the region. In response, the I-D-F's Tank Unit has just shelled a Hamas military site within the strip. Mossad blamed for assassination in Syria An anonymous, top-level intelligence official has just told the New York Times that Israel is behind a massive assassination operation in Syria. A few days ago, Aziz Azbar and his driver were killed in an apparent car bombing. Azbar is one of Syria's leading rocket scientists, who worked on numerous projects with both Iranian and Hezbollah weapons teams. Antisemitism in the United Kingdom Paul Gross, Sr. Fellow at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center speaking at ILTV Studio about the UK's labor party leader Jeremy Corbyn that rejected accusations against him and his party members. Israel hails U.S. sanctions on Iran With the first wave of U.S. sanctions on Iran officially now in effect, Israeli leaders are hopeful that the pressure will either topple the regime or else deter them from their current warpath. Prime Minister Netanyahu has hailed U.S. President Donald Trump for defying the rest of the world and re-imposing those sanctions. Russian trolls used Israel to divide U.S. in 2016 The latest data suggests that nearly three-million posts on social media have now been linked to fake Russian accounts with the intent of swaying the 2016 U-S presidential election. But in a shocking development, tens of thousands of those posts were apparently attempts to influence Israel-US relations. At this time, U.S. special counsel Robert Mueller has already identified and indicted 13 Russian national with ties to this plot. Israel targets prostitution The government's powerful ministerial committee for legislation has just advanced a crucial new bill seeking to deter illegal prostitution. Now, the proposed legislation still needs to be passed through the normal channels of the Knesset next session to become a law. The new legislation would punish ‘john's' with fines, giving repeat offenders seeing as much as 75 thousand shekels worth of fees. 7. Egypt seals deal for Israeli gas imports In a massive deal for both diplomacy and economics, Egypt has just signed an agreement to begin importing Israeli gas starting next year. Though a lot of details still need to be worked out for this deal to go into effect, Israeli leaders are already hailing it as a major stepping-stone in Egypt-Israeli friendship. Graduate from the cloud to ‘the swarm' Stefano Onofri, CEO & CO-Founder of Cubbit speaking at ILTV Studio about the environmentally friendly way to store our data and it blows cloud technology out of the sky. 9. Checkmate, Tunisia! Liel is only 7 years old, but she's already something of a chess legend after winning the European championship a few months back. That win meant that she would go on to compete at the world chess championship in Tunisia next year but because Tunisia has often banned Israeli athletes from even entering the country in the past, many feared that this fate would befall little Liel as well. Well we are pleased to report that it looks like you can put those fears to rest. Gal Gadot circles Hedy Lamarr series Israel's home-grown Hollywood megastar Gal Gadot is circling a new role to play something of a real-life wonder woman: Jewish actress and inventor Hedy Lamarr.

Facebook has recently taken down 32 accounts that they believe were fake and pushing propaganda designed to target the left AND the right. The goal seems to be to get everyone to fight each other. When the media frames it only as Donald Trump and Putin colluding then people on the right assume its more trump derangement syndrome and don't take it seriously. When we hear about Russian trolls meddling too many people only hear about it targeting the right. But they want us fighting, they want the left and right at each others throats. And its working... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ouo8GrUNg0Y&list=PLxQaod7tWvYL-svWumeiRiecB2yrXODIR&index=2&t=0sSupport the show (http://timcast.com/donate)

Those of us with a functioning BS meter and a decent grip on reality have known for many years that the mainstream media has, at least periodically, operated as a fifth branch of government (in the USA) and the 'Ministry of Truth' (in the UK). In recent years however, on all geopolitical topics - in particular those relating to Russia and the 'War on Terror' - the Western press seems to have fully embraced the role of Western government mouthpieces.

In today's podcast, we hear that Facebook has kicked some Russian trolls out from under its bridge. Why? Because they're Russian trolls, that's why. Facebook CEO Zuckerberg will testify about data security before a House panel next Wednesday. Privacy for the Old World, but maybe not as much for the new. The YouTube shooting may have been motivated by anger over the platform's policies. European air traffic control problems were a glitch, not a hack. Pipeline operators recovering from IT hack. Homeland Security tells the US Senate hostile intelligence services have stingrays in Washington. Panera Bread's response to its potential data exposure. Rick Howard from Palo Alto Networks on whether security platforms are putting all of your eggs in one basket. Guest is Jim Routh, CSO at Aetna, on Model-driven security and the rise of unconventional controls. 

In this week's episode, John and Adam tackle the Parkland School Shooting conspiracies, the disinformation, and outright bullshit surrounding this tragic event. Shouts of "False Flag" and "Crisis Actor" are all too common these days and, far more often than not, without merit. We'll dissect these claims and, hopefully, contribute a little critical thinking to the conversation.  In the second half, John breaks down the recent Mueller indictments of the 13 so-called "Russian Trolls" who apparently had so much influence they were able to swing an entire election. This whole thing is starting to turn into a bad Hollywood comedy. And finally, Adam provides a brief explanation for all the recent Black Panther hype. Hint: Marketing. 

On this episode of Fault Lines, hosts Garland Nixon and Lee Stranahan will analyze the apparently irreconcilable differences in US politics on a wide range of issues. This especially as opposing sides on key issues seem to move further and further apart. Does political polarization make compromise difficult—if not impossible? Are mainstream media outlets stoking this division and discord?Americans overwhelmingly support universal background checks for gun ownership and restrictions on machine guns, assault weapons, and other weapons able to kill dozens of people in seconds. Others feel we need more and more deadly guns on the streets, in schools, etc. Most want guns out of schools, but others want more guns in schools. Some blame gun violence on mental illness, yet Trump recently signed legislation to let mentally ill people obtain guns. Is compromise possible?Americans overwhelmingly support universal healthcare, but since taking office Trump has joined with Republicans working to limit access to healthcare care. Americans overwhelmingly support action to address climate, but the Trump administration is obstructing efforts to limit carbon emissions. Americans overwhelmingly support action to protect DREAMERs from deportation to lands they've never known, but the Congress repeatedly failed to act. Is action possible?The separation of powers requires coming together to address important concerns and advance the public interest. Is this increasingly untenable when many politicians adhere to inflexible scripts?Garland, Lee, and guests will discuss top stories of the day: misguided US Middle East Policy, military spending and other budget issues, media coverage of Trump and Russian “clickbait” operations, censorship, gun violence, and emergency as Kurds face attacks, as well as other trending issues in politics in the “Divided States of America.”Scheduled Guests, Topics, and Notes–subject to change: (Show 7-10 AM ET Thursday Feb 22): Whitney Webb - MintPress News Staff Writer | Topic: Middle East Politics and the Future of the Military twitter: @_whitneywebb James Langford - Business Editor at the Washington Examiner | Topic: The Economy and the BudgetKatie Hopkins - Author and Columnist | Topic: Analyzing Trump and Coverage by the Mainstream Media Kani Xulam director of Kurdistan.com | Topic: Conflict in Syria, Turkish / US RelationsBen Garrison - Political Cartoonist | Topic: Twitter, Censorship, and "Russian Trolls"

On this edition of No Holds Barred, host Eddie Goldman spoke with former boxer, kickboxer, and MMA fighter, and current trainer, nutritionist, and activist, Omowale Adewale. We spoke with him by phone Tuesday. The December 14 episode of late-night hit TV show "The Rundown with Robin Thede", shown on BET in the U.S., had a feature on a Russian troll operation known as "Black Fist". We discussed this with Omowale, how they tricked him into being associated with it (and how I was tricked into covering "Black Fist"), how all he did was conduct self-defense and martial arts training he was already doing and still does, how Black people were being used as a "pawn" in it, and the political implications of this scam. We also discussed the treatment of this scam by the media, and how shows by Black women such as Robin Thede and Karen Hunter provided the best coverage. Now that he is retired as a fighter, he has had more time to devote to training people, both adults and youth, in fitness, combat sports, and self-defense. "In terms of fitness, I'm training people mornings and evenings, which started in November. This is a few months after I stopped fighting. I just started training people more often," he said. "Now I'm doing a Brooklyn Boxing Boot Camp." This is all part of a greater effort he has been involved with for many years. "My organization, which has been around for 16 years, we're a small group of folks, Grassroots Artists MovEment, G.A.ME Inc., we have a space in Bed-Stuy, and what we do is focus on addressing the socio-economic conditions of Black and people of color in our community, particularly poor working class." He also has initiated a vitally important project called "Black Men Dismantle Patriarchy and Misogynoir", where Black men meet to discuss how to fight misogynoir (which is misogyny directed towards Black women), and to support and protect Black women and girls. We discussed how all this is part of the struggle against white supremacy, how his work helps the community get various resources and nutrition information, the need to fight "toxic masculinity", why people need to get organized and get skilled and get fit, and much more.

A friend of mine lost his job because he went on a Black show based in Washington DC and that show was on the Sputnik Radio network. Another friend of mine has been blacklisted on Twitter and she discovered she's been labeled a Russian Troll. One problem, I just spoke to her on the phone. She's local. Let's talk about how this Russian narrative is damaging the Black community.

Annoyed by a Russian scholar's derogatory comments during a security conference, David Pollock, a Kaufman Fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, took the podium to set the record straight about the U.S. role in the war against terrorism. The stinging exchanges appeared to end with the conference, but when Pollock he returned home he realized he'd been targeted for what he called "harassment."
