NEW YORK (19 September 2017 ) – As climate change, biodiversity loss

Was WW2 a Genocidal War on Germany?
(left, Mainstream (((media))) endorsed sterilization of 48 million
Germans before any Jewish mass murders took place.) Does the focus on
the Jewish holocaust obscure the fact that World War Two may have been a
genocidal war on Germany by the Illuminati central bankers? It seems
farfetched but, if we consider that Angela Merkel is pursuing a
genocidal migrant policy today, this "revisionist" inter

(This is a longer excerpt from the BBC interview. Watch the host

David Irving - Not a Holocaust Denier
In a 2009 confession, David Irving acknowledges that more than two
million Jews were gassed at four camps. So why has he been persecuted?
by Henry Makow Ph.D. David Irving has been vilified by Organized Jewry

September 16, 2017 ( Ulson Gunnar - NEO ) - The use of information to

US Missile Machinations Undoes Non-Proliferation Efforts
September 18, 2017 ( Ulson Gunnar - NEO ) - When it comes to nuclear
weapons upon the international stage, the general consensus is certainly
not "the more the merrier." Attempts to limit the number and variety of
nuclear weapons and to take measures to avoid the use of those that do
exist have been ongoing since the first nuclear weapons were developed
at the end of World War 2. Today, however,

The US and Japan appear unable to learn when it comes to nuclear power.
These societies' collective sense-making is impaired by their love of

surrounding communities and workers: Melina Delkic (2017, September 11).
