World War 3, East Asian Front: Korea says final talks for peace, industrial complex to become military base!

28 July 2013 (14:36 UTC-07 Tango)/20 Ramadan 1434/06 Mordad 1391/21 Ji-Wie (6th month) 4711

The rhetoric has escalated to a final ultimatum from Republic of Korea (RoK, South Korea), “final talks” over the massive industrial complex known as Kaesŏng (Gaesong) Industrial Region (KIR).

I’ve pointed out that Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’s closing of KIR hit the U.S. capitalist puppet RoK right in the nuts, despite western news media and public officials saying it was hurting DPRK.

On 28 July 2013, RoK unification minister in charge of cross-border affairs, Ryoo Kihl-Jae, announced that a final offer for talks to re-open KIR was sent to DPRK.  No details given, but he added that RoK was willing to send five shipments of humanitarian aid to DPRK to get them to re-open KIR.

On 27 July 2013, DPRK held a massive victory day celebration, and what western news media seemed to downplay was the fact that China’s vice president, Li Yuanchao, was standing right by the side of Kim Jong-un.  A clear show of support.  By the way, also present for the celebrations were political and military officials from Mozambique, Tanzania, Namibia, Uganda, Zambia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Angola, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, India, Japan, Cuba, Egypt, Palestine, Syria, Iran, Mongolia and Russia.  Even former U.S. attorney general Ramsey Clark paid a visit during the week!

On 25 July 2013, DPRK negotiators declared KIR talks had collapsed, and threatened to turn the commie run crony capitalist corporations’ work camp into a full fledged military base: “If the fate of Kaesong industrial zone ends like this, the military would reclaim it.”-Pak Chol-Su, DPRK delegate

You need to realize it was DPRK that made sacrifices for the creation of the capitalist KIR.  The area was originally a DPRK military base, and they agreed to remove their military forces and create a massive work camp for the sake of U.S. capitalist puppet corporations from RoK.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 15-16 July 2013. More proof the British-U.S. Empires are behind boy sex slaves & opium! More proof the U.S. ain’t leavin’!

Afghan news media reporting that an Afghan National Army (ANA) soldier has escaped from prison.  He was arrested last week after killing a Slovak-NATO soldier, and wounding at least three others.  The reports say his escape was facilitated by other ANA soldiers!

ISAF reports that a U.S. led NATO troop was killed by “direct fire” in eastern Afghanistan.  Mujahideen have reported killing several U.S./NATO personnel in eastern provinces, but they don’t give enough details regarding how they were killed.

Despite U.S. news media reports saying Mujahideen attacks are down, the Afghan Defense Ministry admitted they are actually up!  Afghan General Zahir Azimi also admitted that currently the Afghan government forces can not handle the increased attacks by Mujahideen.  This is in direct contradiction with ISAF General Heinz Feldmann, who said Afghan government forces were ready to take over from U.S./NATO.

Another ISAF commander, Major General Dieter Warnecke, revealed that U.S. led NATO/ISAF has military plans for Afghanistan past the 2014 pullout date: “Much of this work will continue into the NATO Resolute Support mission in 2015.  I’m convinced about it. Our strong international commitment to this nation and to the Afghan people will endure.”

Officials with the Afghan Defense Ministry say they’ve caught Pakistani troops/insurgents who’ve infiltrated the ANA using fake ANA ID cards!  Afghan General Taj Mohammad Jahid made the announcement on Radio Free Europe.

In Ghazni Province, a 12 years old boy blew himself up with a bicycle bomb near an ANA/NATO military convoy.  He was killed, an Afghan cop was wounded.

In Helmand Province, Nawzad district, Mujahideen say they destroyed a Georgian/ISAF tank, killing the crew.  And in the United Kingdom/United States controlled area, in Sangin town, a British journalist revealed institutionalized sexual abuse of boys by police.  The issue has many Canadian soldiers in therapy.  Canadian soldiers were told to ignore it, and they claim even U.S./U.K-NATO personnel took part in the child sex crimes.  A U.S. Marine Corps Major tried to confront local police about it but was rebuked.  The British journalist spent six years documenting the war under the U.K./U.S., including the sex crimes.  He has released a documentary called This is What Winning Looks Like!  By the way, Sangin town is also considered a major hub of opium production!

In Baghlan Province, Baghlan-e-Markazi District, NATO/ISAF forces conducted home invasions.  One person killed, two kidnapped.

In Kunar Province, reports that people are abandoning their villages because of repeated U.S./NATO airstrikes.

In Nangarhar Province, Jalalabad city, a motorcycle bomb exploded, killing two people and wounding three.  One person killed worked for Afghan National Directorate of Security (NDS, domestic spy agency) and the other person killed was a Afghan National Police (ANP) officer.

The Afghanistan National Archives revealed they have 7000 historical documents pertaining to Iran, documents not currently found in Iran.  Afghan officials say they will send Iran digital copies of those documents.

World War 3, North American Front: Mexico losing U.S. instigated drug war to Knights Templar!

26 July 2013 (13:23 UTC-07 Tango)/18 Ramadan 1434/04 Mordad 1391/19 Ji-Wie (6th month) 4711

“I think some areas have been lost….there have been areas that have been abandoned or that have, unfortunately, been won by organized crime.”-Enrique Pena Nieto, Presidente of Mexico

Presidente Enrique Pena Nieto admits that a drug trafficking group, known as Knights Templar, have won the war in the Mexican state of Michoacan.

The loss of the state to Knights Templar took place as U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano was meeting with her Mexican counterparts.

U.S. President Bush Jr instigated the destruction of Mexico by forcing Presidente Felipe Calderon to launch a full on war on drug gangs, and six years later more than 60000 people have been killed, with no adverse affect on the drug gangs!

The ATF (U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives) operation Fast & Furious proved the U.S. government was behind supplying weapons and ammo to drug gangs,  as many of those guns were traced to the killings of U.S. citizens with the very guns supplied by the ATF!

But the Knights Templar are not just another drug gang, they consider themselves the legitimate representatives of the people of Michoacan.  Reports say combat in Michoacan has been ongoing for the past week.  Two months ago the Mexican government increased police and military units in the state.   Now entire towns have risen up against the government.  Police report their vehicles and weapons being captured by the revolutionaries.

In 2011 I wrote how the U.S. instigated Drug War in Mexico was nothing more than a Control Through Chaos operation.   It might also be U.S. covert preps for an invasion of Mexico.  In 2012 I pointed out that Reaganite Caspar Weinberger co-authored a book called the Next War.  Mexico was one of the countries he said the U.S. was going to invade, if conditions were just right.  If the Mexican government is truly losing control of states to nationalistic anti-U.S. organizations, then that meets Weinberger’s conditions for U.S. invasion.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 13-14 July 2013.

In Logar Province, Mohammad Agha District, Afghan and NATO/ISAF forces killed ten people in Mazgin village.  Afghan government officials called them militants, and said the militants had attacked the Ainak copper mine.  Two of the militants were foreigners.   In Kharwar District, Mujahideen say they shot down a NATO/ISAF helicopter.

In Nangarhar Province, reports that a military convoy hit a massive landmine.  Afghan government officials say a tank was destroyed and U.S. medivac ‘copters were called in.  Mujahideen claim the explosion killed the crew in the tank.

In Kandahar Province, Arghistan District, Afghan border police say they killed 12 Pakistani militants who attacked them.

In Paktia Province, reports that 12 people were killed by NATO/ISAF airstrike.  In Jani Khail District, 26 contracted security guards joined the Mujahideen.  The defections were the result of Mujahideen releasing four captured security guards/mercenaries unharmed.

Afghanistan and Turkmenistan signed onto the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan and India (TAPI) gas pipeline project.  It’s a 30 years deal.

In Helmand Province, Camp Bastion, BBC reporting that British Red Coats have begun pullout operations. The Theatre Logistics Group is scrambling to get military vehicles prepped for the long journey home to United Kingdom.  The BBC reports that the British retreat actually started in October 2012!

According to the BBC, 21 British Red Coats killed themselves while on duty in Afghanistan in 2012.   Another 29 Afghan veterans killed themselves back home in Merry Ol’ England.

A Transparency International report said the U.S. backed Afghan justice system is the most corrupt government organization in all of Afghanistan.  Of course the U.S. backed Afghan Supreme Court denies it.

Confusing reports: The Afghan Foreign Ministry says they’ve officially suspended post 2014 Bilateral Security talks with the Obama administration, yet, a spokesman for President Hamid Karzai says a special committee will be formed to continue such talks.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 11-12 July 2013.

In Baghlan Province, Burka District, Boorkeh city, Mujahideen claim they shot down a NATO/ISAF helicopter.  U.S. officials would only confirm that one of their ‘copters made a “hard landing”.  Mujahideen say it was a U.S. Chinook helicopter, and that 27 personnel on board were killed.  The district governor did say the U.S. forces were conducting raids in the area.

In Helmand Province, Nad-e-Ali District, an explosion killed three civilians.  When police showed up to investigate another bomb exploded.  Two cops killed, two wounded.  In Gerishk District, locals reported NATO/ISAF airstrikes killed three eight years old children.

In Herat Province, the three kidnapped employees of the Norwegian Refugee Council were freed. Local police say no ransom was ever demanded, and the hostages were released without any negotiating.

The European Union’s special envoy for Afghanistan, Vygaudas Usackas, said peace talks will not show any progress until 2015.

Iran and Afghanistan have agreed to cooperate in fighting U.S. backed drug smuggling and terrorism: “A peaceful and stable Afghanistan can play an efficient role in the promotion of trade…”-Abbas Araqchi, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Asia-Pacific Affairs

The United Kingdom announced that it wants to pullout 5200 Red Coats by the end of this year.  However, Defence Minister Philip Hammond said they will be prepared to send troops back into Afghanistan if “additional surges” were needed.

Former U.S. diplomat, Robert Blackwill, warned that Afghanistan could become a proxy war between India and Pakistan, after the 2014 NATO/ISAF pullout.

Norovirus / Tummy Bug update, 24 July 2013: Rabies misdiagnosed as tummy bug, kills several! Fear forces family to remove stomachs!!! More reasons to be a meat eater!

In Maryland U.S.A., it’s been revealed that people who got organ transplants are dying from rabies.  The latest victim died in February this year.  The North Carolina man who donated his organs had been diagnosed with a tummy bug called ciguatera, from eating contaminated fish.  Turns out he had rabies, which can have symptoms similar to tummy bug.  Three organ recipients have been successfully treated for rabies.  A report says this is not the first time this has happened in the U.S. (at least three other documented cases where several people died), and issued a warning: “This transmission event provides an opportunity for enhancing rabies awareness and recognition and highlights the need for a modified approach to organ donor screening and recipient monitoring for infectious encephalitis.”-report co-authored by U.S. CDC, published in Journal of the American Medical Association

The U.S. CDC has confirmed that this year’s norovirus outbreaks are dominated by the GII.4 Sydney strain (as I wrote months ago).

In eight U.S. states at least 275 people are sick from a protozoa called cyclospora.  10 people hospitalized.  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is trying to find the source.

In Washington U.S.A., the Seattle Parks and Recreation closed the Lincoln Park wading pool after children got sick.  They suspect norovirus.  Public pools are chlorinated, but the normal chlorine levels are not high enough to kill the new strains of tummy bugs.

In Massachusetts U.S.A., a family has removed their stomachs.  They have a genetic mutation known as CDH1.  It causes diffuse gastric cancer, which normally shows up when it reaches stage 4, meaning too late for treatment.  They’ve had several relatives die from it.  Stomach cancer is the number two cause of cancer death around the World.

In the U.S., the National Pork Board is investing $800000 USD to fight a killer pig virus called porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED).  It’s fatal for suckling pigs, and 346 cases have been confirmed in 14 states.  It’s been determined that it’s being spread when transporting pigs to markets or slaughter houses.  Right now the pork industry is being told to handle all pigs as if they were bio-hazards.  Pig meat is safe to eat when cooked properly.

Wisconsin U.S.A., reporting an invasion of Lone Star ticks, which cause ehrlichiosis.  The disease has symptoms similar to influenza and tummy bugs.  Health officials suspect the new ticks are surviving through the warmer winters.

In Canada, health officials are warning you to protect from insect bites, some of which cause tummy bug like symptoms.  Blood sucking insects spread diseases from human to human.

In Taranaki, New Zealand, cases of cryptosporidiosis are skyrocketing.  Last year they had none, this year 24 cases so far.  It usually spreads when a sick person swims in a public pool.  Treatment is the same for norovirus, drink plenty of water.

Health officials in Taiwan reporting that norovirus outbreaks are getting larger every year.  They’ve identified GII.4-2006b and GII.4-New Orleans.

In United Kingdom, more reasons to stay out of hospital.  The Royal Blackburn Hospital is apparently intentionally killing patients through neglect and harassment.  A old woman was admitted with tummy bug, but then died.  Her family says the staff ignored her, intentionally moved her to new rooms in the middle of the night, and she even wound up with injuries that she didn’t have when she went in.  The woman called the Royal Hospital “hell on earth”.  A government investigation backs up the family’s claim, saying the Royal Hospital has the highest death rates in the U.K.

Wards in the Royal Bolton Hospital and the Coronary Care Unit in U.K. have been closed.  It’s blamed on tummy bug, but hospital staff are not sure how many people are sick.

Health alarms are ringing in the U.K., after reports that the upcoming winter will see more delays in getting help at the hospital. It’s blamed on huge reductions in staff at Accident & Emergency (A&E) units across the U.K. due to funding cuts.   Also, a disease that can have tummy bug like symptoms being warned about.  It’s the killer coughing bug, called pertussis or whooping cough.  This year’s cases are up ten times from 2008.

In Scotland U.K., officials with Health Protection Scotland reporting massive increase in two or more linked cases of illnesses.  Cases of people being sick with more than two diseases at the same time is up 40% from last year.  Norovirus is the most prevalent co-infector, salmonella the second most prevalent.  68% of cases took place in nursing homes and 28% in hospitals.

U.K. news media have been circulating a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study that says 50% of all tummy bugs are caused by raw fruit and veg!  It’s usually the fertilizers used on the plants, which can actually absorb the pathogens through their roots, meaning in some cases you can’t just wash it off ’cause it’s inside the plant.

In Russia, norovirus has been found in frozen raspberries from the Netherlands.  Russian officials are warning of norovirus infections of frozen berries from Austria, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Poland, Spain, Sweden and United Kingdom.

Pakistan reporting a tummy bug outbreak in Panjpai.  At least 67 people sick.  Several people died. In Punjab, a child died from tummy bug.  Health officials say the disease is being spread by the water supply, at least 200 people sick.

In Madhya Pradesh, India, at least ten people sick from cholera.  Government officials say it’s taking place in “unauthorized” communities, whose water source is contaminated.  In Maharashtra, 31 more students have been admitted to hospital. This is the place where elementary and junior high students were poisoned by their school lunch.  22 children have died so far.  It’s blamed on a deadly pesticide (which is banned in the U.S.) that somehow got into their food.  The school principal has been arrested after an employee said she was forced by him to serve the food even after she discovered the contamination.  Also, in the same state of Maharashtra, health officials are reporting increased cases of cholera, specifically in the city of Mumbai.  Officials there are concerned because they had no cases last year. Also they report increased cases of typhoid and hepatitis.

A study is blaming increased particulate mater (PM) in the air on open air BBQs.

The Beijing News and Green Beagle Environment Institute study done in Beijing, China, said open air charcoal fired Bar-B-Ques increased PM by 2.5 levels.  It’s also claimed that charcoal BBQs produce poison gas as well.

You can see where the environmental NAZIs are going with this study.

Cuban health officials say they developed an anti-cancer drug that kills cancerous cells, but does not affect healthy cells.

It’s based on peptide RJLB14.  It identifies the cancerous cell, invades and kills it.  More testing will be done before the commie government will approve it.  Cancer is the number one killer in Cuba.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 09-10 July 2013: Obama threatens to give Karzai what he wants! Iran hangs U.S. backed drug smugglers!

The dumb Obama administration has threatened to do what President Hamid Karzai has been asking for; pull out all U.S. personnel.  Obama was trying to play tough with Karzai, who recently refused to continue with post 2014 troop level negotiations after it was revealed that Obama was negotiating directly with Mujahideen for peace, without involving the Afghan government.  If anybody’s been following my Afghan updates, they would know that Karzai has been demanding full withdrawal of U.S. forces for several years now.  He says the U.S. is the reason for the ongoing violence in Afghanistan.

On the same day, the Mujahideen closed their office in Doha, Qatar.  It’s was that office that was revealed to be the place where Obama officials were going to talk peace with Mujahideen.

In Iran, 12 U.S. backed drug smugglers from Afghanistan were hanged.  As many as 5000 Afghans are in Iranian prisons, most charged with drug trafficking.  Drug smuggling is punishable by life in prison, or death, in Iran.  Drug smuggling from Afghanistan to Iran has skyrocketed since the U.S. invasion at the end of 2001.

In Uruzgan Province, the former district governor for Char Chino District was assassinated by Mujahideen.  The assassins escaped.  Officials said the former district governor had tried to avoid contact with government officials for the past year.

In Kandahar Province, Slovak/NATO troops were shot at by a Afghan National Army (ANA) soldier, at Kandahar airbase.  Slovak military officials reported that one Slovak was killed and six wounded.  The ANA soldier was arrested.  In another report, the provincial governor said three U.S./NATO troops at the airbase were wounded, after an argument with an ANA soldier.   Another report said three Czech/NATO troops were also attacked!

In Herat Province, Obe District, at least 17 people were killed, five wounded after their bus ran over a landmine.

In Helmand Province, Khanshin District, two people killed, three wounded, after they drove over a landmine.  In Musa Kala District, 10 ANA troops joined the Mujahideen.  And after 20 days of attack by Mujahideen, the ANA withdrew from their base in Sangin District.

U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) revealed that the United States government has spent $34 million U.S. tax dollars on a massive headquarters complex that will probably never be used!

In Paktika Province, Barmal District, an ANA soldier joined the Mujahideen then shot and killed three ANA soldiers while they were sleeping.

In Kunduz Province, Dashti Archi District, U.S. supported Afghan government contracted security forces murdered three civilians who refused to pay a tax on agricultural produce.

In Paktia Province, Chamkani District, 10 ANA soldiers joined the Mujahideen.

In Ghazni Province, Mujahideen claim they prevented a planned NATO/ISAF offensive by striking first.  They say they attacked a military convoy that left Ghazni city for the offensive, killing or wounding 19 NATO/ISAF personnel, and destroying four armored vehicles.  Mujahideen launched several attacks on the convoy, the last one lasting four hours.  Three Mujahideen killed.

 Baghlan Province, Adarab District, seven Afghan National Police (ANP) joined the Mujahideen.

Zabul Province, Seyuri District, reports that NATO/ISAF forces invaded homes in the Shah Beal village.  Two civilians killed.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 07-08 July 2013: Corrupt U.S. contractor refuses to pay Afghan sub-contractors!

Major battles in Maidan Wardak, Kabul, Kunar, Jawzjan, Nangarhar, Baghlan, Kunduz, Faryab, Uruzgan, Logar, Ghazni, Farah, Helmand and Paktia provinces.  Mujahideen claim they killed 30 Afghan National Army (ANA) soldiers.  Afghan government officials claim they killed 100 Mujahideen.  Afghan government officials added that U.S./NATO air strikes were called in.

In Parwan Province, Bagram airbase, reports that two groups of ANA soldiers turned their guns on each other.  Three people killed, several wounded.

In Maidan Wardak Province, Sayed Abad District, Mujahideen say they destroyed 19 supply vehicles and killed 14 people.  Mujahideen say their ambush of the U.S./NATO supply convoy took place at several points through out the district.  One engagement lasted three hours. One Mujahid killed, one wounded.

Afghan Major-General Mohammad Sharif Yaftali, admits that Mujahideen numbers have increased by 15%.  He says there are at least 5000 Mujahideen in seven southeastern provinces.  He also says there are increased foreign fighters helping the Mujahideen, mainly from Pakistan and Chechnya.

In Kandahar Province, an Afghan interpreter who was working with U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) was arrested in connection to the kidnapping and torture deaths of Afghan civilians.  U.S. SOF was behind the war crimes, a mass grave was found next to an abandoned U.S. SOF base, which contained the bodies of some of the kidnapped Afghans.  Afghan police say the arrested interpreter is seen in a video taking part in the torture deaths of the victims.

Despite Indian government officials denying Afghanistan lethal military  aid, reports say the two governments are still in discussions for India “to contribute lethal weapons” and to “enhance” military cooperation.

Iranian officials say they are holding political discussions with the government of Afghanistan: “There are issues over which Tehran and Kabul need to regularly hold talks and be in touch about them. General relations between the two countries will be discussed…”-Abbas Araqchi, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Asia and Pacific Affairs

In Ghazni Province, Deh Yak District, two people killed, and three people wounded, including the provincial high peace council chief, when a remote detonated bomb exploded.  In Khogyani District, Mujahideen claim to have killed 19 U.S./NATO/ISAF troops during an ambush of a military convoy.  In Maqur District, reports that NATO/Afghan forces conducted a home invasion, killing three people.

In Baghlan Province, Burqa District, reports that NATO/Afghan forces raided a Madrasa and kidnapped three students.

After announcing big funding for Afghanistan, Norway is now backing off.  Norwegian officials are now using the excuse of failed Afghan reforms to get out of promised taxpayer funding for the Afghan government: “Norwegian authorities note with disappointment the slow and uneven progress that has characterized the follow-up to the commitments made.”

More proof the corruption is on the U.S. side: In Kabul Province, Kabul city, Afghan civilians protested the U.S. owned contractor Supreme Group.  The Afghans work for a subcontractor called Afghan Mansoor Jalal Logistics and Transportation Company (MLC).  The subcontractor says Supreme Group is refusing to pay them!  The owners of MLC says Supreme Group owes them $20 million USD!  Supreme Group is a U.S. taxpayer funded contractor providing logistical support to military units.  Supreme Group is also involved in a no-bid contract scandal involving military food supply.
