In North Carolina, Local Advocacy Trainings Boost Action for Refugees
It is maddening isn’t it that the refugee industry is rolling in
(foreign) money to promote more refugees for your towns, cities, states,
but take heart and consider that grassroots efforts by patriots to
educate the public about the downside of too much immigration in places
like Minnesota (without funding for advocacy training by rich Brits) is
having an impact as I said herethe other day.
The Battle of Huertgen Forest and along the Siegfried Line from 1944 to
1945 is one of the last great myths of World War II. It is known as the
"longest battle on German soil", as well as the "Verdun in the Eifel",
as the largest American defeat in Europe. Even the official US-military
history speaks of Huertgen Forest as "a black-green ocean of forest, in
which Hansel and Gretel had lost their way". Hemingway called the Eifel
woods the "forest, where dragons live". Dragons' teeth, the Siegfried
line, the Green Hell - terms that remind one of old German myths and
fairy tales, of the Nibelungenlied, of the Nazi propaganda about the
"eternal forest", of stories of ghosts and evil witches in the deep
woods.
Even today, people still speak of the more than 68,000 dead in the
Huertgen Forest and the "All Soul's Day battle" near Vossenack and
Schmidt is taught at the School for Command Preparation at Fort
Leavensworth, USA, as an American disaster. James Gavin, commander of
the 82nd Airborne Division, called the "Bloody Huertgen" a "battle that
never should have been fought". Perhaps this is the reason that this
historic battle is always in the shadow of glowing victories like the
Normandy landings and the crossing of the Rhine at Remagen.
For the first time since the fighting over sixty years ago, a film team
has now set out to track down the myths and legends and to research the
real reasons for this "forgotten battle". After years of research,
several surviving veterans in Germany and the United States have been
interviewed. Never before seen film footage from the US National
Archives and private archives are impressive evidence of the war, the
signs of which can still be seen in the forests to this day.
The moving interviews with eyewitnesses like the famous photographer
Tony Vaccaro or the future Princeton Professor and German emigrant
Werner "Tom" Angress underscore the senselessness and brutality of the
war as does the statement of the German veteran Kurt Menzel: "Today, I
am thankful that I lost my arm on that first day. As a result, I was
never able to kill anyone."
Now that revelations have come to light that at worst have the Federal
Bureau of Investigation placing a spy within the ranks of the Trump 2016
campaign, and at best have the FBI hiding evidence from
congressional oversight it is clear that the Department of Justice, and
specifically the FBI, even now have top brass making decisions that must
be outed, removed, and if necessary—charged.
If he had refused to meet him, they would have screamed blood murder also. I fully agree with him going.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo fired back at ex-CIA Director John
Brennan Sunday for saying North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has been
"masterful" in "duping" President Trump, dismissing the comments as
"silly."
"I think former Director Brennan's remarks are silly on their face," Pompeo said during an interview on "Fox News Sunday."
Pompeo shrugged off Brennan's concern that Trump was
unrealistically raising expectations ahead of
his historic summit with
Kim on June 12 in Singapore.said.
"We're going to enter into a set of discussions with two nations doing
their best to achieve outcomes for their own people that are consistent
with their objectives and goals," Pompeo said.
Viktor Orbán’s Hungary, supported by the Czech Republic and Romania,
blocked an EU motion condemning President Donald Trump’s decision to
move the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, according to Israeli news
anchor Barak Ravid.
Israeli officials and European diplomats told the Channel 10 News journalist that the three countries — part of the Visegrad group of
conservative, pro-sovereignty countries within the European Union —
blocked the joint statement led by Emmanuel Macron’s France, which was
supposed to “embarrass and isolate” the Trump administration
internationally.
Rashid said the defeated statement outlined a common European Union
position on Israel and Palestine containing the following three points,
according to Axios:
Jerusalem should be the capital of both states — Israel and the future state of Palestine.
The final status of Jerusalem should be negotiated and only determined through negotiations between the parties.
The member states of the EU will not follow the U.S. and will not move their embassies to Jerusalem.
Federica Mogherini, the High Representative of the European Union for
Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, was said to have been embarrassed
by the failure, with diplomats complaining to Rashid that the bloc’s
leadership was finding it harder to direct member-states. (Sniff, sniff....:)
“The Hungarians didn’t want to poke Trump in the eye and the Czechs
and the Romanians are considering to move their embassies to Jerusalem
against the EU position,” a source told the Israeli.

Colonel Millard A. Peck, Infantry USA Resignation Letter From what I have witnessed, it appears
that any soldier left in Vietnam, even inadvertently, was, in fact,
abandoned years ago, and that the farce that is being played is no more
than political legerdemain done with smoke and mirrors to stall the
issue until it dies a natural death.
