Due to the imperialist proxy war and murderous US/EU sanctions on Syria, "A staggering 9.3 million Syrians are now going to sleep hungry and another 2 million are at risk of a similar fate"

This is a rise of food insecurity in Syria by 42% since 2019

What is so grotesque about this statement from international "humanitarian" orgs, however, is that it does not once mention the word *sanctions*.

Because some of these same fake "human rights" groups supported imposing murderous US/EU sanctions on Syria!
reliefweb.int/report/syrian-…
The US govt's imposition of the draconian "Caesar" sanctions on Syria amount to a medieval-style siege on all civilians in the country.

And this murderous economic warfare was totally bipartisan, with liberals joining the Trump admin to kill more Syrians

Whoa: the FBI has actually, finally arrested Ghislaine Maxwell on numerous charges of helping procure young girls for billionaire US intelligence asset Jeffrey Epstein's pedophile ring

Ironic given Epstein's deep links to / work with the FBI
npr.org/2020/07/02/886…
An FBI document admitted that billionaire pedophile / intelligence asset Jeffrey Epstein had "provided information to the FBI as agreed upon."

Former US government attorney Alexander Acosta also said he "was told Epstein 'belonged to intelligence'"
thegrayzone.com/2019/08/11/jef…
Billionaire child trafficker Jeffrey Epstein worked with the CIA's airline, and a UK newspaper reported that Epstein worked for the CIA in the 1990s.

A former top Israeli intelligence official also said Epstein worked with Israeli military intelligence

The international police org Interpol claims to be neutral, but just exposed itself as another biased tool of Western imperialist countries, by immediately rejecting Iran's request for arresting Trump for blatant crimes.

More impunity for US war criminals cnbc.com/2020/06/30/int…
No wonder Interpol is protecting US war criminals. It has long had a right-wing, pro-fascist bias

In the 1930s, it was taken over by Nazi Germany. Interpol shared headquarters with the Gestapo in WWII, operating as division within the Nazi Security Police

Interpol's far-right bias continued after WWII. In the 1960s, it had two different presidents who had both been Nazi collaborators.

During the 1950s and '60s, Interpol did nothing to bring justice to Nazi war criminals, letting the monsters live freely

Further merging with the US government, Twitter recently hired the FBI's former top lawyer to help lead its own legal team.

In case you were wondering why the corporate tech giant censors so many people who challenge US imperialism

The top Twitter executive with editorial responsibility for the Middle East is an officer in the UK Army’s psychological operations (psyops) unit, where he oversees information warfare.

These spies and cops are helping oversee (and censor) social media middleeasteye.net/news/twitter-e…
This is more outrageous censorship by Twitter.

It is now restricting the account of MintPress News, an independent media outlet that provides a rare platform to anti-war voices.

Where are the defenders of free speech? This is blatant censorship! Obscene
