Low-fat diet could kill you, major study shows

A major study has found that, contrary to 'the established science,'low-fat diets could raise the risk of early death by almost twenty five percent. The study of 135,000 adults, organised by medical magazine The Lancet and presented at the European Society Of Cardiology congress found those who cut back on fats had far shorter lives than those enjoying plenty of butter, cheese and meats.


Researchers said the study was at odds with the advice health professionals and researchers working for pharmaceutical corporations have been offering for the past fifty years. From government health departments to our local doctor, the advice has always been "cut down on fats and avoid saturated fats because they will kill you. For many years now however, independent research has shown that fats, including saturated fats, are healthy and beneficial and processed carbohydrates are the real villain, with white sugar at the top of the list


Following the official advice has let to people who thought they were eating healthily to eat far too much stodgy food like bread, pasta and rice while missing out on vital nutrients, the study reported.


Participants who consumed the highest levels of carbohydrates, especially the refined sugars found in fizzy drinks and processed meals, faced a 28 per cent higher risk of early death (as always we add a caveat about statistics, always ask percentage of what? In this case, because figures vary widely from study to study if we assume at around 25% (1 in 4) adults under 70 will have some kind of cardiovascular problem, then those who have a 28% higher risk (again 1 in 4 for the sake of simplicity) have a 28% of 25% higher risk.)


The research, presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress, in Barcelona found those with low intake of saturated fat in fact had 13 per cent higher risk if early death compared to those eating plenty.


And consuming high levels of all fats while reducing refined carbohydrates cut mortality by up to 23 per cent.


The Canadian study tracked eating patterns and death rates across 18 countries.

Do Recent US Naval Disasters Confirm Russia's Electronic Weapons Claims



Two recent collisions in the South China Sea involving US warships and merchant vessels operating legitimately in the area have led to the US Navy cancelling all operations and standing down its fleet. What could have caused such a dramatic action, you might well ask. We wish we had a definitive answer but governments tend to remain tight lipped on such embarrassing stories.

When the USS John S McCain limped into Singapore, holed on the waterline after colliding with a tanker however, we were reminded of a story that resurfaced concerning a strange incident in 2014 involving a United States warship.

uss_john_s-_mccain_ddg-56-collision-damage-800x565
USS John McCain after collision (Image source: worpress)

The most disturbing part of this story for US military strategy was not the fact that ten American sailors were lost, although that is what grabbed the headlines. More sinister was that the incident came only two months after the US Destroyer The Fitzgerald collided with a cargo ship off Japan, with seven deaths resulting from the accident. And in May 2017 the cruiser Lake Champlain crashed into a South Korean fishing boat, fortunately no lives were lost on that occasion.

So what is going on. US Navy ships should have the most advanced naval technology in the world - apart from the British Navy of course :-) - and ought to have been aware of other vessels in the area in ample time to take evasive action.

According to a report first published in 2014, the USS Donald Cook experienced a total failure of its electronics systems, disabling weapons, tracking technology and navigation equipment after being buzzed by two Russian air force Sukhoi Su24 aircraft. Now the Su24 is an old design and by today's standards not a sophisticated warplane. According to Russian sources however, the attack jets carry electronic weapons that can cripple the US Navy's missile defence system.

Russia-1 television's Vesti programme claimed an electronic warfare device called "Khibiny" was used by a Russian pilot to completely deactivate the defence systems of the USS Donald Cook in a 2014 encounter in the Black Sea. In the past this blog has reported that we learned from an Iranian nuclear scientist who is a friend of one of our contributors that Iran had jointly developed with Russia and China, a range of Electronic Weapons based on technologies first proposed by the scientist Nikolai Tesla, after whom the Tesla car company was named, whose work was sidelined in the west because of the threat it posed to commercial interests.

Reports coming out of the weapons and military technology industry more recently have suggested there was substance to that claim.

The US' Aegis system, manufactured by Lockheed Martin, and carried by most modern American ships, is designed to protect a fleet against attacks by aircraft, and cruise and ballistic missiles. Other systems are in place to protect ships against less sophisticated weapons such as a boat pack with explosives being set on course to ram them.

But the Vesti broadcast (on Russian state controlled TV it should be noted) claimed the pilot of a Sukhoi Su-24 jet was able to deactivate "the whole ship's systems" with "powerful radio-electronic waves" during the fly-by incident three years ago, around the time of Russia's annexation of Crimea.

"You don't need to have expensive weapons to win [a war], powerful radio-electronic jamming is enough," the report concluded. At the time this was dismissed as kremlin propaganda in response to Obama's boasts about US technical superiority.

At the time the US military confirmed the Donald Cook, a guided missile destroyer, had encountered a pair of Su-24s that repeatedly flew near it in the Black Sea. But a spokesman, Army Col Steve Warren, said then: "The Donald Cook is more than capable of defending itself against two Su-24s."

Both President Donald Trump and his Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, have hinted that relations between the countries hitting a low point may be in some way connected to these incidents.

During a meeting with his Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, earlier this month, Tillerson said the world’s "two foremost nuclear powers cannot have this kind of relationship".

And before an off-camera meeting with Tillerson, Russia's President Vladimir Putin commented in an interview that "one could say that the level of trust on a working level, especially on the military level, has not improved, but rather has deteriorated".

The Centre Cannot Hold



“Things fall apart; the center cannot hold.” W. B. Yeats wrote.

The funny thing is, we didn’t seem to miss the center all that much after it was gone. The people of the developed world are perfectly happy gathering at the extremes these days, especially the margins of thinking, as the gap between them widens, deepens and becomes an abyss

One of the things that held the centre together was tolerance, in public debate, argument and private opinion, tolerance of dissent, of diversity - even eccentricity in lifestyle. Tolerance and a little good will on both sides facilitated the coherent exchange of ideas. These days, the main political factions are typified by hatred of those who disagree with their world view. Their primitive chanting of slogans hardly adds up to an exchange of ideas, in fact when compared to the decorous disagreements on politics, religion and economics in the past, modern exchanges of views are more like two tribes of chimps screaming, baring teeth and throwing turds at each other over a scrap of desirable territory.

Behind the partisanship bordering on tribalism, that divides left and right is that eminence grise we are obliged, for want of an official appellation, to refer to as 'The Deep State,''The Shadow Government' or 'The New World Order,' and their front line actors, the quaintly misnamed "Intelligence Community." These birds, many of them lifers, are dedicated to making the public discussion of anything as incoherent as possible so as to prevent any change in policy that might curtail the growth of the Deep State, a version of John Steinbeck's monster that had to grow or else it died. Unlike the Steinbeck monster (the banks) that fed on money and debt, the deep state / shadow government / NWO feeds of power and control.

In order to gain ever more power and control the Deep State monster must keep those it would rule in the dark about what is really going on, to make sure those who are not afraid to question and challenge authority do not have the weapons, the information and the platform from which to address their audience, with which to challenge convincingly. This is why we read and hear so much about fake news and censoring internet content to remove fake news. Internet technology makes suppression of news unfavourable to The Powers That Be a simple affair, while the concentration of mass media in the hands of a few corporations facilitates building a narrative designed to limit our ability to question and form diverse opinions on the official versions of events.

Case in point, the Syrian aerial gas attack earlier this year in the town of Khan Sheikhoun. Elected officials were all over the cable networks selling the NSA’s story that Syrian president Bashar Assad bombed women and children with Sarin gas three days after State Department declared that it had a new policy of letting the Alawite (secular Muslim) regime of Bashar al Assad remain in power after decades of manoeuvring to remove him culminating in in the despicable deception by the NATO power of appearing to oppose the terrorists and Muslim fundamentalists fighting Assad while secretly arming and training them.

The gas attack and the outrage expressed in the media might have led to the end of the six-year-long Syrian civil war, which Assad seemed to be winning, finally — with Russian assistance.

The alleged incident led to new official calls for NATO to directly attack Syria and kick Assad out, presumably to be replaced by the kind of failed state chaos that has existed in Libya since Qaddafi was overthrown by a NATO bombing campaign. Nobody knows. The US Deep State thrives when chaos reigns in foreign lands. So much the better for their looting operations, such as the theft of Libya’s 141 ton gold reserves in 2011. And if not looting hard assets directly, the Deep State wins when its many black box vendors — the private security armies, materials suppliers, arms sellers — are raking in.

The interesting part of the Syrian gas bombing story is how readily the U.S. and European public swallowed it. The elected representatives of the people flocked to broadcast and print news organs to condemn the outrage and demand to know how the west could let a monster who would use chemical weapons on his own people to remain in power. the FUKUS axix (France, U.k., U.S.A., Intelligence Community "issued a consensus report" reporting the Syrian air force has dropped Sarin gas bombs on the hapless civilians. Nobody offered any actual evidence that this was so. Only those who already understood or took the trouble to learn of the properties of Sarin recognised that the photos of aid workers clad in T shirts, jean and open toed sandals, and handling affected civilians with bare hands just had to be fake. Anybody working in an area where Sarin is present would be wearing a full haz - mat suite, with a respirator and full body cover. These days however, mere assertions rule and the media were all singing off the same song sheet in the wake of the attack and the song they sang most enthusiatically was that tired old anthem, "Conspiracy Theory". It was left to veteran investigative journalist Seymour Hersh to expose the gaping holes in the logic of the narrative some weeks later.

To save yourselves the trouble of reading Hersh's article just ask one question. With support from Russia and Iran, Assad was on the point of victory, ISIS were in retreat in both Syria and Iraq and the people of Syria, who had by a considerable majority supported their government throughout the extremist uprising, were still loyal. Assad may be many things but he is not stupid so why would he order such an atrocity that he must have known would turn the world against him? As with the Ukraine colour revolution that deposed a democratically elected government, the removal of Honsi Mubarak in Egypt and the overthrow of Qaddafi (sic) the intent was so obviously to benefit American geopolitical interests and the execution so inept and amateurish, like most other Washington fireign policy adventures these had the CIA's fingerprints all over them.

We are still waiting to see some evidence that Trump’s campaign “colluded with Russia” to spin the election toward him and rob Hillary clinton of her entitlement to be first woman president of the U.S.. Those claims were also put out as "a consensus analysis" by the Intelligence Community. And after months of calls by the democratic Party and their friends and allies in the media in March 2017, just-retired NSA director James Clapper told NBC’s Meet the Press that his agency had no evidence of “Russian collusion” with the Trump forces. Four months later the calls to impeach Trump and have him removed from office continue but still no evidence of his collaboration with Moscow or of any interference by Russian hackers been presented. What has emerged is that the number one suspect for leaking thousands of emails harmful to Clinton and the Democrats to Wikileaks, a young Democrat campaign worker named Seth Rich, was murdered in Washington soon after the most damaging information in the emails began to be published.

Casual observers might be wise to adopt the most cynical attitude possible about "consensus reports" published by the U.S. Government's numerous intelligence agencies both overt and covert. Seasoned dissenters such as I gave up affording them any credibility decades ago. Britain and the other European powers are no better, and Russia? Well RT is not a bad news site for cynics in the west, itself.but don't consider it as a source for news on Russia itself. What it all adds up to is the snowballing incompetence, self - interest, malfeasance, and total dysfunction of the US government in general, in all its layers and branches has rendered the national government dysfunctional and unable to govern effectively.

This breakdown of order and the insecurity it generates is what is now driving the anger at the extremes. And with no centre to hold things together the outcome coulkd be catastrophic. The only way out is if We The People reject mainstream politics, mainstream media and the ideologies of the extremes. We are many, they are few, and more importantly than that, THEY CAN'T PUT US ALL IN PRISON.

Governments constantly make positive noises about the health of their economies although most people who are in work have felt no improvement on the position they were in after the crash of 2008.

Uber sex scandal as police accuse taxi firm of failing to report sex attacks committed by drivers

This is a story that has been waiting to break. Though overshadowed in recent months by the financial chaos, executive resignations, removal of the founder and CEO because of his increasingly erratic behaviour and ongoing battles with regulatory authorities, it was inevitable that news about the way Uber, supported by police authorities and mainstream media, have covered up news of sex attacks by their unregulated drivers of the unlicenced cabs that use the 'car sharing' app to operate illegally as taxis.


New feeds are reporting that Uber has been accused of covering up serious sex attacks by its drivers. Police say had the crimes been reported they could have prevented other sexual assaults from taking place.

As far as we know at the moment, the reports only connect to Uber's United Kingdom operation. London's Metropolitan Polce says the "safety and security" of the public has been put at risk by Uber failing to report crimes which have then escalated.

In one case a sex attack was not reported and the driver continued in his job and then went on to commit a more serious attack.

Inspector Neil Billany, leader of the Metropolitan Police's taxi and private hire unit, has expressed "significant concerns" that the firm is picking and choosing what crimes to report to the police to protect its reputation.

A company such as Uber, which has a licence to operate a cab service in London, but which operates only as a software app which allows people to hail cabs through their mobile phone, allows anybody to sign up as a driver, thous avoiding the extensive background checks officially licences London cab drivers undergo.

In a letter released under the Freedom of Information Act and leaked to the Sunday Times newspaper, Insp. Billany writes: Uber is "deciding what to report" and only informing police of "less serious matters" that would be "less damaging to its reputation".

He claims crimes police have not been informed of include six sex assaults on passengers, two public order offences and an assault.

"Had Uber notified police after the first offence, it would be right to assume the second would have been prevented," he wrote.

He said the victims had been given assurances by the firm that their attacks would be reported.

The letter was sent to Helen Chapman the Head of Taxis and Private Hire at Tfl.

Tfl has said it is "totally unacceptable" and says it will form part of a review into whether Uber's licence is extended. It was renewed in May and runs until the end of next month.

Uber responded with one of its usual evasive and self - justifying comments: "We were surprised by this letter as in no way does it reflect the good working relationship we have with the police. We advise people to report serious incidents to the police and support any subsequent investigations."

China and Russia Move To Outflank Washington Hawks, Avert War In Asia



Events in recent days have given everybody in the world cause for concern. First it was revealed that renegade state North Korea how has nuclear capability to attack American interests in the Pacific and possible even targets on the US mainland. Then the war of words between the North Koreans and Washington took a nasty turn, opened up the throttle and seemed to be hurtling towards all out war.


Surely this could not be happening, we thought. Had Trump, who during his campaign said he wanted to normalise relations with the eastern block rather than continue along the route to nuclear destruction mapped out by the administrations of Barack Obama and George W Bush been completely outmanoeuvred by the Washington hawks and the Military / Industrial complex lobby? In a word, YES.


While Donald Trump is find how foolish it was to promise he would 'drain the swamp' without having learned how deep the swamp is (our sources say it's bottomless,) it looks like business as usual for the perpetual war party.


Fortunately Russia and China, still subtly waging their currency war against the US dollar have stepped up as they did when Obama was collaborating with ISIS terrorists in his desperation to remove the Assad regime in Syria:



There Is A Russian-Chinese Plan To Defuse Korea Crisis Says Russia's Foreign minister Lavrov


from Zero Hedge


In a glimmer of hope that a military conclusion to the North Korean crisis may yet be averted, Russia's foreign minister Sergey Lavrov said that "Russia does not accept a North Korea that possesses nuclear weapons", cautioned that there is an "overwhelming amount of over-the-top belligerent rhetoric on North Korea’s nuclear and rocket programs from Washington and Pyongyang", but most importantly said that there is a joint Russian-Chinese plan to defuse the North Korean crisis, according to which North Korea would freeze its missile tests, while the US and South Korea would stop large scale exercises.


"Russia together with China developed a plan which proposes 'double freezing': Kim Jong-un should freeze nuclear tests and stop launching any types of ballistic missiles, while US and South Korea should freeze large-scale drills which are used as a pretext for the North’s tests."


It was not clear if Russia or China, had floated this plan with the US or S. Korea prior; the most likely answer is no.


Hoping that "common sense will ultimately prevail", Lavrov said that North Korea had once signed the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) but then withdrew from it. The result is a nuclear-armed N.Korea which Russia refuses to accept: "Now North Korea claims that it has legal rights to make nuclear weapons and has already done so,” he said. “But you know our position: we don’t accept the fact that North Korea could possess nuclear weapons."


He added that both Russia and China have a “range of proposals” aimed at preventing what could become “one of the deepest conflicts” and a “crisis with a big number of casualties.”


Still, Lavrov said that Moscow is worried about Washington's remarks on a preemptive strike on North Korea, and said that Russia is doing its best to prevent this from happening. READ FULL ARTICLE >>>



China Warns Trump: "We Will Prevent A North Korea Regime Change"

source: Asia Times Online


The Chinese government today dimissed President Donald Trump’s demands that Beijing do more to rein in its neighbour North Korea, a small, poor country which has been threatening to wage nuclear war on the USA. Following Trump's threat that if the North Korean leader Fat Boy Kim continued to talk of attacking US targets Beijing, through state-owned media, warned the US president that it would intervene militarily on North Korea’s behalf if the US and South Korea launch a preemptive strike to overthrow the North Korean regime, (regime change - usually with disastrous results - being the speciality of Washington's foreign policy makers,) according to a statement in the influential state-run newspaper Global Times.


"If the U.S. and South Korea carry out strikes and try to overthrow the North Korean regime and change the political pattern of the Korean Peninsula, China will prevent them from doing so," it said.


At the same time, the Chinese regime spelled out that its preferred outcome in this crisis would be a continuation of the status quo, warning Kim Jong Un that it would "remain neutral if North Korea were to strike first." The article, cited by Reuters, reiterated calls for a diplomatic solution. However, the possibility of talks between the two sides was looking increasingly remote as both Trump and Kim continued to exchange threats of nuclear annihilation, with Trump clarifying Thursday that his earlier promise to respond with "fire and fury" should the North continue to threaten the US may not have gone far enough.


It seems that after six months in the job, President Trump has not yet learned in foreign policy he cannot just point a short, slender finger at unruly leaders and say, "You're fired."

Pulitzer-Prize Winning Reporter:FBI Report: It Was Seth Rich, Not Russians, Who Gave DNC Emails to Wikileaks

Just as left leaning political pundits in the USA are starting to crow about the apparent chaos in The White House (OK, so Trump has fired three senior staffers within two week, big deal. It's what he does, it's in the job description. You're fired!) the fates once again conspire to knock the idiots who have not yet accepted they lost the election off their high horse.

As everyone is aware the main thrust of the Dems efforts to have Trump impeached have been trumped up (sorry, couldn't resist,) accusation that his collaboration with the Russian government was behind the alleged hack of Democrat campaign and Clinton Foundation computer systems which resulted in thousands of damaging documents being released to Wikileaks.

And like other blogs that reported the same thing, when Boggart Abroad revealed it was not the Russians, but a Democrat campaign worker disgusted at the way the party had cheated Bernie Sanders out of the nomination, who leaked the emails, we were called conspiracy theorists. Seth Rich, who was murdered soon after the leaks began to be published, was not even a hacker, he had legitimate access to the computer networks and released the information in the public interest as any responsible citizen should.

Well now it is out in the open, an FBI report (that's the post - Comey FBI of course) has identified Rich as the leaker. Which means if there is still such a thing as justice in Washington DC, some senior figures in the Democratic party should be looking at "Conspiracy To Murder" charges soon.

Has The U.S. Declared Full-Scale Trade War On Russia?

Just about the whole world, including the fifty (or is it 51 now, last I heard an extra one was about to be added?) states of the United States, and especially the member states of the European Union, which facing the departure of Britain's large contribution to the budget can't sand to lose one of its major export markets, agreed it would be insane for the USA to impose further economic sanctions on Russia.The latest sanctions are in retaliation for The Kremlin's refusal to end its annexation of Ukraine and are an initiative of the Washington Perpetual War Party which is made up of Democrat and Republican senators and representatives in the pay of the military - industrial complex.

Previous sanctions on Russia, imposed by the Obama administration, were totally ineffective against Russia, which can sell all its oil to China but extremely damaging to several of the weaker EU economies.

Only hours after President Trump officially signed the new sanctions bill into law  in spite of his reservations about the wisdom of such a move and his statement that while he favors "tough measures to punish and deter aggressive and destabilizing behavior by Iran, North Korea, and Russia, this legislation is significantly flawed", Russia responded with a strong statement from Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. On his FaceBook page Medvedev wrote that all hopes of improving Russian relations with the new US administration are dead, that the Trump administration demonstrated complete impotence by transferring executive power to Congress "in the most humiliating manner", and most notably, that the US just declared a full-scale trade war on Russia.

Here's the statement in full from Medvedev's facebook page:
The signing of new sanctions against Russia into law by the US president leads to several consequences. First, any hope of improving our relations with the new US administration is over. Second, the US just declared a full-scale trade war on Russia. Third, the Trump administration demonstrated complete impotence, and in the most humiliating manner transferred executive powers to Congress. This shifts the alignment of forces in US political circles.

What does this mean for the U.S.? The American establishment completely outplayed Trump. The president is not happy with the new sanctions, but he could not avoid signing the new law. The purpose of the new sanctions was to put Trump in his place. Their ultimate goal is to remove Trump from power. An incompetent player must be eliminated. At the same time, the interests of American businesses were almost ignored. Politics rose above the pragmatic approach. Anti-Russian hysteria has turned into a key part of not only foreign (as has been the case many times), but also domestic US policy (this is recent).

The sanctions codified into law will now last for decades, unless some miracle occurs. Moreover, it will be tougher than the Jackson-Vanik law, because it is comprehensive and can not be postponed by special orders of the president without the consent of the Congress. Therefore, the future relationship between the Russian Federation and the United States will be extremely tense, regardless of the composition of the Congress or the personality of the president. Relations between the two countries will now be clarified in international bodies and courts of justice leading to further intensification of international tensions, and a refusal to resolve major international problems.

What does this mean for Russia? We will continue to work on the development of the economy and social sphere, we will deal with import substitution, solve the most important state tasks, counting primarily on ourselves. We have learned to do this in recent years. Within almost closed financial markets, foreign creditors and investors will be afraid to invest in Russia due to worries of sanctions against third parties and countries. In some ways, it will benefit us, although sanctions - in general - are meaningless. We will manage.
We wait with bated breath for details of the European Union's promised retaliation.
