In regards to Black Lives Matter - two of their co-founders just got arrested in LA.

Black Lives Matter Co-Founders Arrested During LA Protests
http://en.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13950713001509

Several Black Lives Matter activists were arrested by Los Angeles police including two of the movement’s co-founders, Patrisse Khan-Cullors and Melina Abdullah, along with Niki Okuk, as they took part in a peaceful protest demanding justice for slain Black teen Carnell Snell.

Social media reports from activists on the ground suggested they were arrested after refusing to leave the LA Police Department headquarters, Telesur reported.

The police did not let some of the activists attend a press conference about recent shootings. Los Angeles has seen three men of color slain by police in the last three days.

Earlier, Abdullah, professor and chair of the Pan-African Studies Department at California State University, told Telesur that the situation in LA is dire and unbearable.

"In Los Angeles, we’re at a point that we just can’t take it anymore,” Abdullah, who formed the first chapter of the movement, told Telesur.

“As LA was preparing to join Pasadena in protests, they killed Cornell Snell right here.”

In the city of Pasadena, Reginald Thomas, Jr., was killed Friday in his home by six police officers who were aware that he suffered from mental illness. On Saturday night, 18-year old Carnell Snell Jr. was chased down and killed by police in LA as his younger sister looked on.

South Front has this article about the White Helmets. It has many pictures exposing the White Helmets as terrorists with as they write, a day job as a White Helmet "volunteer" and a night job as a terrorist. The article has no author as such but the pictures come from a twitter user named Gjoene: _https://twitter.com/search?q=gjoene&src=typd

September 29th 2016
Volunteers of the White Helmets civil defense organization have a double life: they are ‘volunteers’ by day and terrorists by night.

Photos, published online, reveal ‘the second life’ of volunteers of the White Helmets civil defense organization that operates throughout the Syrian territory, controlled by the ‘moderate’ opposition.

According to the photos, the volunteers spend one part of their lives, providing assistance to civilian population, and then transform into members of terrorist groups and shoot at the same civilians.

The White Helmets, also known as the Syrian Civil Defense (SCD), was founded in early 2013 by British security consultant James Le Mesurier. The organization is supported by Mayday Rescue, a foundation, registered in the Netherlands. The SCD was created as “a response to indiscriminate bombardment of civilian communities in rebel-held areas by the Syrian Arab Air Force.” However, according to an official statement, the mission of the White Helmets is “to save the greatest number of lives in the shortest possible time and to minimize further injury to people and damage to property.”

Now volunteers of the White Helmets operate in 114 local civil defense centers across 8 Syrian provinces with high presence of various militant groups: Aleppo, Homs, Idlib, Damascus Countryside, Hama, Latakia, and Daraa.

Hello there!

Thank you for posting the article, Aeneas :)

I found it on SOTT :
h__ps://www.sott.net/article/329677-Volunteers-by-day-terrorists-by-night-The-double-life-of-White-Helmets

The other day, I have been watching the movie 'Antichrist'.

Maybe that's the look in the eyes of these guys that I can't stand.

Well, in order to not sink in an ocean of despair regarding the high level of brain utilisation by these guys, and to dedramatize these troubling pictures : 'Do they earn a double salary?'

:)
 
Can I place this here?

http://www.aleppo-appeal.org/

It's about Dutch scientists who massively signed a petition to take necessary actions against Russia to supposedly stop the slaughter in Aleppo.


First all those celebrities already mentioned in this topic and now an army of soulless scientist.

It's like the World is one big classroom. And 99% is cheering the biggest bully on in that classroom just because it is the popular thing to do and to score social points. Whoever in their right mind want there name on such a diabolical petition?!

They are all pawns for US imperialism, whetever they realize it or not.

Thanks for Posting the Petition, Bjorn. The script sounds like it came directly from John Kerry's speeches?

In a recent report on Aleppo, there's speculation that "approximately 200 Western instructors" are trapped in Aleppo, with Assad's Army closing in on them. The Syrian Army and it's allies have been destroying all the tunnel systems in the area, so they have no way out? Putin will only agree to a 48 hr. ceasefire which probably isn't enough time to sneak them all out?

I would speculate - that Putin and Assad "planned this ordeal" - to expose the U.S.'s double dealing? The U.S. is now cornered and have resorted to dirty tricks and another smear campaign, while they try to find a way of getting their "instructors" out of there. This Petition just seems like another hat-trick and Putin isn't budging!

Washington Suspending Talks With Russia Over Syria Raises Questions

Thanks for posting Bjorn and Angelburst. It does indeed sound like Kerry's speeches and a sign of desparation. Where were these people during the Libya slaughter, the Iraq war, the Afghanistan war? Did they call for any of the Western war criminals of those slaughters that led to the refugee crisis, to be held accountable and be tried at a war crimes tribunal?

I looked up one professor on the list from a higher education institution from Denmark, though she is is English. Her name [ur=https://www.um.edu.mt/__data/assets/pdf_file/0019/214093/Michelle_Paces_bionote_for_website.pdfl]Michelle Pace[/url].

It just so happens, that her interest is in democratisation of the Middle East and globalisation.
Prof. Michelle Pace is currently Professor MSO at the Department of So
ciety and Globalisation, Roskilde University in Denmark. Prior to arriving a
t Roskilde, she spent 11 years at the University of Birmingham in the UK where, amongst other respon
sibilities, she was Principal Investigator on two large research grant projects funded by the British
Academy and the Economic and Social Research Council on Perceptions of Democratisation
in the Arab Mediterranean World and Paradoxes and Contradictions in EU Democracy
Promotion in the MENA region
respectively (2007 - 2013). She has been and still is a very act
ive member of the editorial board of the journal Mediterranean Politics
. Her current research interests include the development of the public
sphere in the MENA region in the context of the Arab uprisings

And a little more here: _http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/schools/government-society/departments/political-science-international-studies/staff/profiles/pace-michelle.aspx
Research interests

The basic question I am interested in is the role of the EU, and other external actors like the US, in the de-democratisation of states / pseudo states in the Middle East and North Africa, particularly the cases of Egypt and Palestine. The focus of a lot of my current work has been on the following:

The nature of democracy promotion in the context of an Occupied Nation (Palestine) and of an Authoritarian Regime (Egypt).
Rethinking the EU's promotion of its liberal democracy model in the Middle East and the relationship between development, democracy and human rights in the EU's discourse.
External 'engagement' in political reform issues, particularly EU 'democracy promotion' policy towards the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
Governance and pluralism, particularly in Palestine and Egypt.

I also have a history of working on European Union Mediterranean relations, including the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, the European Neighbourhood Policy and the Union for the Mediterranean.

So it looks like at least one of those who signed could be a modern day democracy crusader aka 'regime change promoter' and a likely supporter of Samantha Powers and her R2P, though that is only a guess.

A good catch! The order is given because of services to the UK (Anglo empire) not because of services to Syria as stated on his resume. And not forgetting that he was/is a mercenary and dealing in death and destruction has been his life. The book Britain's Secret Wars by T.J. Coles (interviewed on Sott talk radio)is well worth reading to realise how pervasive British involvement in conflicts still is, as if the British empire never really died.

Yeah, he got the award because of services to the UK that are in line with the warmongering agenda they have in Syria, which does not include in any way helping Syrians.

Exactly. What is written in that petition is the complete opposite of what is really going on. To use their words, I would say the gravest of crimes are being committed by the US and its partners that have invested political and military resources in their campaign for ISIS...

There is also a Dutch petition by 'Save the Children', a nonprofit organisation in the Hague. In that petition they ask the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bert Koenders, to tell the Russian and Syrian government to stop bombarding (innocent civilians/children) immediately. On their facebook page, someone asked why there is no mention of the main perpetrators, i.e. the US, and their long answer pretty much came down to: our point is that children are being bombed in Syria and that it has to stop. There was no real answer to that person's question. Probably because they have no idea of who is bombing who, and they're simply copying false information from mainstream media websites.
 
[quote author= Angelburst29]This Petition just seems like another hat-trick and Putin isn't budging! [/quote]

The Western war machine was this unstoppable force that is now up against an immovable object. Russia won't allow them to destroy Syria, and they can't seem to handle it. They are unable to take their loses.

I never heard the 'drums of war' this loudly before. It's like Putin forced the whole Western World to show it's true face. Not only the politicians lobby for war now, but even Western celebrities and academics are massively calling to 'save' the Syrian people!! The Empire is saving no expence in their propaganda war, priming the Western populace for war in Syria and with that against Russia.

Indeed, their lies are completely upside down with reality. Blaming Russia what they are doing. Oldest trick in the psychopath handbook.
 
Some good news. The White Helmets did not get the Nobel Peace price as it went to the Colombian president, Juan Manuel Santos. https://sputniknews.com/world/20161007/1046089416/nobel-peace-prize-2016.html

One would like to think that our work in exposing them and the work of Vanessa Beeley and Eva Bartlett and others have played a part in them not getting the reward. Even if the reward is so tainted after having been distributed to so many war criminals, in the eyes of many it still is worth a lot and opens many doors, including doors for funding and publicity.
 
It appears that The White Helmets are on the Time's magazine cover this week. See the cover here. It says:

'Whoever saves one life, saves all of humanity' The White Helmets of Syria and the 60,000 lives they've saved. By Jared Malsin

In this clearly anti-Syria/Russia propaganda piece by Malsin, he writes:

Even militants who had fought in the armed rebellion set aside their weapons to join the White Helmets. From that disparate set of local groups grew a unified national organization that now claims more than 3,000 volunteers in rebel-held areas across the country. (Media associated with Assad or Russia have accused the White Helmets of links with militant groups, but the group’s leaders say all their staff are civilians, and the White Helmets’ code of conduct forbids taking up arms.)

Compare that with what Vanessa Beeley wrote:

10: During interviews with the REAL Syria Civil Defence, they informed me that the Nusra Front and associated 'moderate rebels' who invaded areas such as East Aleppo, Raqqa, Deir Ezzor, Idlib, massacred crew members of the REAL Syria Civil Defence and stole the majority of their equipment in those areas, including fire engines and ambulances. Many of these armed groups then became White Helmet operatives. Testimony from the REAL Syria Civil Defence suggests that the White Helmets are acting as support for Nusra Front, ISIS and other heavily armed militia described as "moderate rebels".

[...]

13: There are many images documented, that reveal the White Helmet operatives carrying arms or posing with arms alongside the various armed militia including Nusra Front. There is also further footage from Idlib showing White Helmet operatives celebrating alongside Nusra Front militia after the massacre of Syrian Arab Army forces and Syrian civilians during this attack.

It is good news! Glad to hear their efforts failed and more people are becoming aware of what the "White Helmets" truly represent and their real function as "paid and sponsored propaganda." What a huge waste of taxpayer money!

The REAL Syria Civil Defense are the real hero's! Just think - if they got one-third the funding that was showered on the White Helmets, they would have all new equipment and trucks and a better paycheck?

I still think - more effort is needed - to continue to expose the White Helmets and keep the heat on - as to their true purpose.

Personally, I see "Doctors without Borders" in the same category as the White Helmets? I've also noticed, media never mentions the two in the same article, although they might both be working in the same general area of a disaster? Recently, I came across an article in the Forum - of the White Helmets bringing in expensive hospital equipment and supplies, into Syria, under cover. I surmise, it was for use by Doctors without Borders to treat wounded terrorist? I'll try to find the article.
 
'Massive evidence foreign-funded White Helmets support terrorist entities in Syria'

Through the White Helmets we are seeing the eradication of Syrian state institutions and the implanting of a Syrian shadow state by predominantly the UK, the US and supported by EU governments, says Vanessa Beeley, independent researcher and journalist.

With Syria’s White Helmets having been in the running for a Nobel Peace Prize in 2016, grabbing headlines as ‘Heroes of Peace’, with the media and politicians endorsing them, RT spoke with Vanessa Beeley, independent researcher and journalist.

Beeley discussed whether The White Helmets are indeed "independent, impartial and unsullied by Western cash".

RT: The White Helmets claim to be a “neutral, impartial, humanitarian NGO". Is that really the case?

Vanessa Beeley: It’s impossible for that claim to be legitimate. Let’s take it first of all, “neutral”. They claim that they receive no funding from any governments that have a vested interest in the Syrian conflict. And yet they are in fact multimillion funded, conservatively speaking, 100 million dollars from the US, 23 million via USAID; from the UK around now 65 million - it was originally 19.7 million pounds and Boris Johnson announced a further 32 million. France is supplying equipment. Denmark, Germany, Holland and even Japan through the international agency in Japan.

So, it is very hard to comprehend how this organization can describe itself as unaffiliated to government bodies that have an interest and known and declared interest in regime change in Syria. Then if we look at their claims to be neutral, they are embedded entirely in terrorist-held areas whether it is predominantly Al-Nusra front or ISIS or any of the various associated brigades of terrorists that take their command very much from Al-Nusra Front, that is where White Helmets are exclusively.

There is massive video and photographic testimonial evidence from inside Syria to give evidence that they are running a terrorist support group. They provide medical care for the terrorists, they funnel equipment in from Turkey into the terrorist areas (…) They’ve been filmed participating and facilitating an execution of a civilian in Aleppo. They post celebratory videos to their social media pages of the execution of civilian Arab soldiers. From the testimony from the real Syria Civil Defense across Syria they have also been involved in the taking over of the real Syria Civil Defense units, the stealing of their equipment and the eventual massacres and kidnapping of real Syria Civil Defense crews.


https://youtu.be/eOz0jt_wA8w

RT: Who exactly are its members and its leaders?

VB: If we take the leaders, they were both prominent anti-government protesters or demonstrators (...) Raed Saleh was actually deported from the US in April 2016 from Dulles airport. And Mark Toner avoided the questions as to how and why he was deported, while the US is giving 23 million to this organization. He eventually said “because of extremist connections.” In September this year we know that Raed Saleh was allowed back to New York and into the UN and met with Secretary of State John Kerry. But this is not the first time that the United States has allowed terrorist faction leaders in. Labib Al Nahhas was allowed IN December 2015, the leader of Ahrar Al-Sham. It is no stranger to US territory that leaders of terrorist groups or suspect groups are allowed into the US. The trainer of the White Helmets - and this is very important - is an ex British military mercenary, James Le Mesurier, who was given the OBE in June, 2016 by the British government. If we look at his career, and we look at his connections, he connects back to organizations, private security firms, like Blackwater, now called Academi, who, if we remember, were basically a CIA outreach assassination organization that had millions pumped into them by President Bush, and even by President Obama, who gave them over $250 million to continue in their role as assassination experts for the CIA.


https://youtu.be/792ODrhwKkk

RT: The White Helmets are also referred to as the ‘Syria Civil Defense.’ Is it the same thing?

VB: This is a complete criminal and illegal taking of copyright. The real Syria Civil Defense inside Syria has existed for 63 years; the White Helmets have existed for 3 years, they were founded in 2013. What we are seeing here is an eradication of Syrian state institutions and the implantation of a Syrian shadow state by predominantly the UK and the US, but also supported by EU governments.

https://youtu.be/SgGNzj6rKqI
Yes a great interview with Vanessa Beeeley, Eva Bartlett and Patrick Henningsen, and useful for those who would like a quick visual catch-up to the White Helmets.

I agree with you Angelburst that the Doctors without Borders are very suspect too, though not fully to the same extent as the White Helmets, who seems to be specifically tailor made for a Western Regime change in Syria. DWB mostly if not exclusively work in rebel controlled areas. One could also suspect that the DWB has been targeted for infiltration by Western intel organisations so as to operate under cover of an established aid organisation and gather intelligence and bring support to the mercenaries. A separate thread detailing DWB might be appropiate to avoid blurring the lines.

A thread on Doctors without Borders or Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) was started back when an air strike hit a Kunduz hospital in Afghanistan, back in October of 2015 - here:

http://cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php/topic,39728.0.html

MSF's role in Afghanistan and Iraq is also suspect and like the White Helmets - have some very interesting backers and financing. Come to think of it, I need to do some updates in that thread. An article appeared about a week n'half ago and I completely forgot about it - until now.
 
This article was just published on INTIFADA by Finian Cunningham. It's a good read on the French involvement is supplying weapons and aid to the Syria opposition, with the U.S.'s blessings but I just want to quote a part of the article, where the White helmets is mentioned.

J’Accuse – French Condemnations of Russia in Syria Beyond Cynical
http://www.intifada-palestine.com/2016/10/jaccuse-french-condemnations-russia-syria-beyond-cynical/

France, the US and Britain, amplified by the Western news media, have been conducting a relentless campaign to portray the Russian-backed Syrian operation on Aleppo as criminal and brutally injurious to the civilian population. Since the ceasefire collapsed during the last week of September, the Western media have been saturated with unverified claims of Russian air strikes killing civilians in eastern Aleppo and of targeting hospitals and humanitarian aid facilities.

Claims of Russian and Syrian «war crimes» made by Ayrault and other Western officials are based on «rebel sources» within besieged eastern Aleppo. One of the primary sources is the so-called «volunteer aid» group known as the White Helmets. Video footage purporting to show the aftermath of Russian air strikes is routinely aired by France 24 and other Western channels with the White Helmets logo displayed. It is presented as a bona fide humanitarian agency, when in fact the group is funded by US and British governments to the tune of $ 23 million and is embedded with the Al Nusra terrorist-controlled Aleppo Media Center. In short, a terrorist propaganda outlet, which serves to feed Western media and government ministers with disinformation that is purveyed to the Western public in order to discredit and demonize Syria and Russian forces.

French diplomats told Reuters this week that France is drafting its proposed resolution to the UN Security Council in such a way that Russia would have to exercise its veto if it is to block it. In that way, the French purpose is to project Russia as an unreasonable member of the Security Council and a stalwart backer of the Syrian «regime». This amounts to more cynical Western attempts to traduce Russia and Syria as the perpetrators for the ongoing violence.

(Comment) In short, French Diplomats drafted the propose Resolution, to frame the Russian's into looking bad - while also using the White Helmets to promote propaganda through their channel France 24 news outlet.
