#MH17 JIT statement on the @mod_russia presser:
"In May 2018 the JIT specifically requested information concerning numbers found on several recovered missile parts." but Russia left them unanswered, I guess they prefer to communicate via press conference
om.nl/actueel/nieuws…
#MH17 JIT - "The JIT will meticulously study the materials presented today as soon as the Russian Federation makes the relevant documents available to the JIT as requested in May 2018 and required by UNSC resolution 2166."
Here the #MH17 JIT effectively calls the Russian Ministry of Defence out as liars:

I always find these theories about Bellingcat being created to do this or that, or being some sort of government project fascinating, because there's clearly a community of people who believe it even though it's false. They're living in a world made up of their delusions.
It's impossible and pointless to engage with these people as their world view is based on delusions, and any challenge to those delusions are just seen by them as more proof their delusions are correct.
In the end we didn't need virtual reality to create alternative worlds, people just ended up doing it in their own heads.

One of General Haftar's minions gets off scot-free for mass executions, currently subject of an ICC arrest warrant. The videos of the executions were posted on social media by his own unit.
In late 2017 we geolocated one of the execution sites following the publication of the ICC arrest warrant. Bloodstains from the execution could be seen on satellite imagery bellingcat.com/news/mena/2017…
Despite the issuing of the arrest warrant by the ICC, Werfalli continued to participate in public mass executions bellingcat.com/news/mena/2018…

The first part of Seaborne Freight's Privacy Policy is word for word identical to Romney Marsh Wools Privacy Policy, with just the name changed. romneymarshwools.co.uk/pages/privacy/…
The Seaborne Freight GDPR policy is word for word the same as Virtual College's GDPR policy as well. virtual-college.co.uk/gdpr-complianc…
The second part of the Seaborne Freight privacy page talks about members, and appears on a few other websites. The biggest clue this is just some generic template is they've forgot to fill in the [Business Name] fields.

THREAD: the filings by Mueller and SDNY on Cohen are BIGLY bad news for @realDonaldTrump and his spawn, Don Jr, Kremlin🇷🇺Barbie, and Eric and *clearly* indicate that Trump is an UNINDICTED co-conspirator.

And then, there's the Manafort memo... 1/

#TrumpRussia
First, SDNY makes it clear that Cohen does *not* have a formal cooperation agreement **with them** (but stay tuned on this front later...). As such, SDNY asks the Court to a "substantial term of imprisonment."🤔 2/
SDNY *nails* Cohen for 4 federal felonies to which he pleaded GUILTY: tax evasion, making false statements to a bank, illegal campaign contributions, and making false statements to Congress. 3/

#Russia's state TV:
Former Putin adviser Sergei Markov says that Putin chose not to attend the #UNGA as a favor to Trump, to avoid outshining him.
Markov says, Putin's presence "would eclipse everyone else, Putin would be the person Number One." ©️
Source: ©️
Even the host seems to be bowled over by the gall of that statement.

#Russia's really going for it at UNSC today: Amb. Nebenzia going all-out tinfoil hat, contradicting himself in rapid time.

- In the space of seconds, he says (1) the #Douma incident was a false-flag chemical attack by rebels & then says (2) there was no chemical attack at all.
U.S. Amb. to UN @nikkihaley:

- I could hold up pictures of babies lying dead next to their mothers, in their diapers, all lying together, dead, ashen blue, open eyes & lifeless, white foam bubbling from their mouths & noses… the very definition of innocent, hiding in basements.
U.S. Amb. to UN @nikkihaley:

"Who does this? Only a monster does this… the monsters behind this have no conscience… the Russian regime is covered in the blood of innocent children.

#Russia & #Iran are to blame… [but] what’s the point in trying to shame these people?

1."#UK, #France follow #US in destructive policies in SYR, use blackmail, threaten RUS,
2.Even during #ColdWar Western diplomats didn't afford such tone vis-a-vis #Russia, "You understand what you did [in #MIddleEast]?No, you don't!Will you ever stop your geopolitical experiments?Do you understand what dangerous line you are driving the world to?
3.What's next for us?The most dangerous line of the confrontation is in #Syria.
In #EasternGhouta radicals have been terorrizing population for many years. Now people are being freed..But external sponsors prevent this progress.Terrorists wanted to continue blackmailing civilians
