You'd think @RobertMackey might find the US government's huge role in organizing these protests worth reporting to his US American audience but he totally omitted that crucial information. Maybe he should've read @RealAlexRubi's report: mintpressnews.com/hong-kong-prot…
Reagan administration official Michael Pillsbury: "We're partially involved... We also have funded millions of dollars in programs through the National Endowment for Democracy to help democracy in Hong Kong"
What @RobertMackey calls US-funded “pro-democracy protesters” are demanding the return of western imperialism and rule of the benevolent Donald Trump. Far-right organizer Joey Gibson was there too. Sounds legit!

This thread doesn’t challenge the central points of my article:
-US regime change arm National Endowment for Democracy poured millions into key groups
-Xenophobe media tycoon who just met with Pence and Bolton also a central figure
-Protest “leaders” are groomed by Washington
My article is not against the protest movement in itself. Clearly Washington is unable to mobilize tens or hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong youth. There are real and serious grievances the US is exploiting to further its own agenda.
.@IlariKaila is threatened because my article exposed the geopolitical context and the right-wing, oligarchic nature of the protests’ US-backed leadership. He has no comment on Jimmy Lai’s nativist tabloids, nor of Joshua Wong’s close connections to the most fanatical neocons.

Charles Lister is promoting the leader of al-Qaeda in Syria as Che Guevara-like in an effort to have Hayat Tahrir al-Sham's (rebranded AQ) designation as a terrorist organization lifted.

Who in 2001 could've imagined that al-Qaeda would have a lobbyist in Washington DC in 2019?
Same old schtick from Lister. He's been selling the image of al-Qaeda as a popular movement for years.
There's an obviously coordinated effort among the think tank regime change operatives to promote al-Qaeda as a benevolent force in Syria. Israeli soldier @Elizrael calls Jolani "smart" and says he uses "compassionate rhetoric".

1 #Knapp tonight: "The government programs...recognized - along the way, about 10 or 12 years ago - that if u only study flying saucers & objects in the sky & nuts & bolts flying craft, you're not gonna really get to the heart of this mystery." @g_knapp at #UFO MegaCon #AAWSAP
2 St. Patty's Day, 2018, #Knapp invited to DC by #Reid. On way there, he thought he knew a lot about #AAWSAP/#AATIP. But when he arrived & met w/Reid & some others, he realized he only knew a little, tiny bit. We all know about AATIP, but in reality, there was something b4 that.

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

What do you do when you disagree with someone ? ... How do you handle a different perspective? ... I check we are talking about the same thing... consider the logic and evidence and finally stress test their conclusions...
I did that and I disagreed with @CarolineLucas my leader
First off @CarolineLucas is #spectacularly bright, #hardworking and a #visionary who pulled me into @TheGreenParty orbit. There are very few... perhaps no other UK politicians with a more determined record of standing up for our collective #environmental #rights #newgreenpolitics
