On April 30 2018, well before Mossad assassinated Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, Netanyahu singled out the Iranian scientist in his April 2018 “nuclear archive” slide show.

Weeks earlier, Netanyahu presented these documents to Trump to secure his withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal. ImageImage
As @GarethPorter reported for @TheGrayzoneNews, the docs Netanyahu presented were likely fabricated by the Mossad as part of a disinformation campaign aimed at sabotaging the JCPOA and influencing Trump to implement a regime change policy against Iran thegrayzone.com/2020/04/29/fab…
Iran experienced a wave of nuclear scientist assassinations in 2011-12, just as the Obama admin opened bilateral talks with Iran. Biden's incoming natsec advisor Jake Sullivan led those talks.

The pattern of Israeli political terror continues today. backchannel.al-monitor.com/index.php/tag/… ImageImage
Israel's latest act of state terror was not aimed at Iran alone, but also at the Biden admin and a renewed JCPOA.

As in the past, Israel was emboldened by the preponderance of influence its domestic US lobby obviously enjoys over Biden and his national security team. ImageImage

The Biden-Harris agency review teams are heavily represented by personnel from corporate board rooms, the professional managerial class & Beltway think tanks. It's a recipe for Obama 2.0

A quick thread on a few foreign policy apparatchiks who stood out. buildbackbetter.com/the-transition…
Paula Garcia Tufro is listed on the NSC team. As a member of Obama's NSC, Tufro presided over listing Venezuela as a "national security threat."

She's since been seen w/ Guaido's DC team.

When I challenged her on VZLA sanctions, she had no answer.
Dana Stroul of the neocon WINEP, is listed on Biden's State Dept team.

Stroul helped oversee a congressional panel on Syria that urged US military occupation, crushing sanctions, and preventing rebuilding.

She said the US military "owned" 1/3 of Syria

Samantha Power's husband, Cass Sunstein, has argued for the government to conduct "cognitive infiltration" operations against the anti-establishment opinions he broadly defined as "conspiracy theories."
Cass Sunstein has called for US govt to groom seemingly independent agents to conduct "cognitive infiltration" against vaguely defined "conspiracy" networks:

"govt can supply these independent experts with information and perhaps prod them into action from behind the scenes..."
Sunstein: "Government agents (and their allies) might enter chat rooms, online social networks, or even real-space groups and attempt to undermine percolating conspiracy theories by raising doubts about their factual premises, causal logic or implications for political action."

In an act of pure masochism, I watched Showtime’s The Comey Rule.

It was a piece of Resistance kitsch wrapped in trashy Cold War propaganda, adapted from an FBI agent’s script, and full of factual errors, lies and omissions designed to make liberals even dumber than they are. Image
Here’s a scene from The Comey Rule that never took place: Two accused Russian SVR agents become Internet Research Agency operatives and destroy Hillary’s campaign via Twitter and Facebook. It’s completely made-up, but presented as a factual re-enactment.
There was no evidence Internet Research Agency ads had any impact on the 2016 election anyway. According to Facebook, 56% of them appeared after the election and most did not relate to the candidates.

This week, ex-staffers of UC Global testified in the London trial of Julian Assange that they spied on the @wikileaks founder on behalf of US intelligence, their boss proposed poisoning Assange and robbing his lawyer – whose office was invaded soon after. shadowproof.com/2020/09/30/uc-…
The witness statements in London track validate my report from May, which relied on UC Global testimony to a Madrid court and internal company communications to show how US intelligence oversaw a criminal campaign against Assange fronted by Sheldon Adelson thegrayzone.com/2020/05/14/ame…
The Assange trial featured revelations of murder, torture, assassination plots, robberies & spying on the defendant, his lawyers, friends & journalists.

Did Western media ignore all this because the US gov't seeking Assange's extradition was responsible? thegrayzone.com/2020/09/18/mai…

I just read @RichardMNephew's "The Art of Sanctions."

Nephew, ex-Obama State Dept sanctions coordinator, clinically & chillingly details how pain is the essence of the US global sanctions regime.

Unfortunately, he hasn't been honest about the contents of his own book. Thread:
Nephew claimed he never wrote that sanctions are designed to hurt ordinary people.

Yet here he describes sanctions against Iran that he personally designed and which wrecked the country's economy & currency, caused mass unemployment and inflation, as a "tremendous success"
Nephew pats himself & the Obama admin on the back for tripling the price of chicken "during important Iranian holiday periods" and preventing Iranians from repairing their cars.

At the same time, the US expanded imports of communications tech to Iran to foment social unrest.

Some excepts from my book, The Management of Savagery, on the 9/11 attacks.

This one covers the Saudi government’s operational role in the attacks and the CIA’s concealment of knowledge about Saudi operatives al-Hazmi & Midhar’s involvement in the plot. versobooks.com/books/3154-the…
As the GW Bush administration ignored a briefing about Al Qaeda’s intention to attack inside the US, a ratings-hungry US corporate media spent the summer of 2001 reporting on a non-existent Sharknado. And Wolfowitz gave a speech in 6/01 on “missed signals” ahead of Pearl Harbor.
This was how America’s top drive time host, Howard Stern, conveyed the 9/11 attacks to the public in real time. It was a genocidal tirade that channeled the Islamophobia & imperialist military rampage to come. cc: @paulkrugman
