UK Stops Sharing Intelligence With US On Drug Cartels After Trump Stikes Venezuelan Drug Boat

UK military intelligence services have reportedly stopped sharing information with the USA on activities of suspected drug boats in the Caribbean after the Pentagon carried out air strikes on the vessels, CNN and The Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The US has killed at least 76 people in similar strikes carried out while boats suspected of being involved in criminal activity on behalf of drug cartels were sailing in international waters since September 2025  as part of President Donald Trump’s campaign against what he  claims are “narcoterrorists” operating out of Venezuela. Some parts of news media have suggested the real goal of the action is regime change.

According to CNN, London suspended intelligence-sharing because it considers the strikes illegal under international law. A UK military source told The Times: “We don’t just target the vessel and kill people. We would arrest them.”

The UK used intelligence assets stationed on its Caribbean overseas territories to help the US Coast Guard intercept vessels suspected of smuggling drugs, CNN reports.

The UN’s top human rights official, Volker Turk, condemned the strikes as “extrajudicial killing.”

Venezuela and neighboring Colombia (the world's largest drugocracy,) have denied that the victims were involved with cartels. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has rejected Trump’s allegations that his government is profiting from the drug trade. However it is known that organised crime networks inolved in drug smuggling are operatng out of South American nations.

Previous US administrations have turned a blind eye to this activity because drug culture in the USA is huge and drug users are theoreticaly at least, allowed to vote and privided they are not too shit faced to have an opinion all tend to support the same political party. 

Trump has deployed a naval flotilla, including the USS Gerald R. Ford, close to Venezuela’s coast, hinting that he could authorize strikes on Venezuelan soil. He denies, however, that he is seeking regime change. Venezuela's Marxist President  Maduro has placed the military on alert and vowed to repel any attack.

Putin, Macron To Hold Urgent Talks To Halt Military Escalation In Ukraine
Even though the leaders of Ukraine itself are talking down the threat of war with Russia over the breakaway region of Donbas, America and Britain are still beating the war drums and demonising Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Russia insists they have no plans to invade Ukraine and one western leader at least, France's Emmanuel Macron, seems to be listening to messages coming out of the East European trouble spot...

British Government Laundered Fake U.S. 'Intelligence' On Ukraine
The British government on Saturday accused Russia of organizing a plot to install a pro-Moscow government in Ukraine, as the Kremlin masses troops near the Ukrainian border. The U.K. Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office gave relatively little information about the intelligence unveiled Saturday other than to say that the Russian government was considering trying to make a Russia-leaning former member of Ukraine’s parliament, Yevhen Murayev, the country’s new leader.

If You're Afraid Of Nuclear War You're Not Supporting Ukraine Enough Is Zelensky's Latest Message
The follow up to Elon Musk's refusal to open his Starlink satellite network for the benefit of Ukrainian military leaders as they fantasise about attacking Crimea and driving out the Russian occupying force this past week showcases how completely unhinged and dangerous the Ukrainian government's desire to escalate the war has become.

There Is Only One Way Ukraine Can End The War
As Ukraine's much hyped counterattack has failed to achieved the and momentum that hoped for by American and NATO leaders including President Volodymyr Zelensky who admitted it was "slower than desired", and a range of soldiers interviewed by BBC and Sky News television reporters t on different parts of the long (probably too long given the depletion of Ukrainian military manpower,) frontline have blamed minefields laid by Russian troops for that delay. Well as is often said, in any wartruth is the first casualty.

Ukraine’s Long-Term Plan To Blow-Up The Kakhova Dam Exposed
Russian President Vladimir Putin has addressed the Nova Kakhovka dam blast on Wednesday for the first time, charging that it was a "barbaric act" of the Ukrainian government and its military forces. Ukraine has in its turn blamed Russian forces for blowing up the huge dam which holds back 18 cubic kilometers of water, along with the hydroelectric power plant, and President Volodomyr Zelensky condemned “Russian terrorists”. Russian officials claimed the dam was damaged by Ukrainian military strikes.

A day after Ukraine's much-heralded counter-offensive appears to have failed, almost before it had even begun, a major dam in the Russian-occupied region of Kherson is suddenly bombed, prompting mass evacuations as floods spread across the region. Both sides accuse each other of the attack that puts tens of thousands of homes at risk and might even threaten the safety of Europe's largest nuclear power plant.

Russia Will Never Recover From War In Ukraine Claim Zelensky Fan Club As Russia Continues to Crush Ukrainian War Effort
An inside page headline in yesterday's (1 April 2023) Daily Telegraph claims 'Russia will never recover from this devastating collapse,' though the article below it does not quite make clear exactly what collapse the writer is talking about.

Ukraine: Who Is Winning And Losing In The Economic War

Talk of Sending Fighter Planes to Ukraine Is Madness

Ukraine End Game: As Bakhmut Falls Real Reporting Vies With Propaganda In Western Media
Ever since Russia crossed the Ukrainian border and launched its 'Special Military Operation' almost a year ago now, everyday in western news media we have watched, heard and read that Ukraine was winning the war - Russia was losing ten soldiers for every Ukrainian casualty, Russian troops were incompetent brutes, Russian military hardware did not work and the Russians were running out of missiles, bullets and everything else.

Status Report On That War Thing In Ukraine: Nordstream to Bakhmut, electricity and water - December 2022


In the wake of attacks on the on the Stream pipelines, that effectively halted the flow of natural gas which German industry, commerce, agriculture and society relies on, and the terrorist attack on the Kerch Bridge, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken gloated that the attacks were a “tremendous opportunity” to weaken Moscow [...] And shortly after news of the Nord Stream sabotage broke on mainstream media, gas supply companies in the USA were offering to supply Europe with shipments of Liquid Natural Gas carried by supertanker to be sold to European nations at vastly inflated prices.

Who Blew Up The Nordstream Pipeline
So whodunnit? Sabotage of undersea gas pipe will escalate tension and move the world closer to nuclear war, but who is behind it, Russia in a bid to put more presure on Europe, Ukraine in an attempt to drag NATO into direct action, or the USA using a CIA false flag event to advance its own agenda.

An Energy Crisis In Tandem With A Food Crisis On Top Of An Economic Crisis And A War. This Cannot End Well
As politicians in North America and Europe try to deflect from their own failure that have contributed to the current plethora of crises by blaming Russia and Vladmir Putin for all the current problems, while the war in Ukraine is a contributory factor in each, the real blame lies closer to home.

Soros Encourages Obama Administration To Further Interference In Ukraine

While western leaders continue to pose as the guys with white hats in the confrontations with Russia and China, hacker collective CyberBerkut has leaked some hacked documents which show Russia is not behind the escalation of provocation, but the guys in black hats who really run western governments, led by George Soros.

US Presidents Of The Past warned Against Secret, Shadow Government. By now it should be obvious that peacemake, joybringer and putative aquatic pedestrian Barack Hussein Obama was never really in charge of the US Government. Whatever Obama said would happen, all the American government's policies ensured the opposit would happen. The embedded article thows some light on how the US government really works

Miami Residents Scramble To Evacuate As Hurricane Irma Approaches

After flattening much of the Leeward Islands, blowing our power supplies in Puerto Rico and leaving a trail of destruction through the Caribbean, Hurricane Irma is continuing its terrible progress through the region and is is expected to make landfall in Miami sometime this weekend.


Irma's 185+ mph winds left 90% of the dwellings on the island of Barbuda completely leveled and the island barely inhabitable, according to Prime Minister Gaston Browne.


Irma's power isn't expected to subside all that much as it moves through the Caribbean over the next couple of days, blasting several islands in its path before ending up in Southern Florida. Hurricane Harvey, which hammmered the coasts of Texas and Louisiana only a few days ago hit three times, unlike all previous hurricanes which have rapidly blown themselves out over land. If Irma does the same this will wreak havoc in Florida's heavily populated south.


Here is the latest from the National Hurricane Center:


Maximum sustained winds remain near 180 mph (285 km/h) with higher gusts. Irma is a category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Some fluctuations in intensity are likely during the next day or two, but Irma is forecast to remain a powerful category 4 or 5 hurricane during the next couple of days.




FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS



INIT 07/0900Z 20.0N 68.3W 155 KT 180 MPH

12H 07/1800Z 20.7N 70.5W 150 KT 175 MPH

24H 08/0600Z 21.7N 73.1W 145 KT 165 MPH

36H 08/1800Z 22.3N 75.5W 140 KT 160 MPH

48H 09/0600Z 22.8N 77.4W 135 KT 155 MPH

72H 10/0600Z 24.5N 80.0W 130 KT 150 MPH

96H 11/0600Z 28.5N 80.5W 105 KT 120 MPH

120H 12/0600Z 33.0N 81.0W 75 KT 85 MPH...INLAND




Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 50 miles (85 km) from the eye of the hurricane and storm-force winds extend outward up to 185 miles (295 km).


The combination of a life-threatening storm surge and large breaking waves will raise water levels ABOVE NORMAL TIDE LEVELS by the following amounts within the hurricane warning area near and to the north of the center of Irma. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves.


According to hurricane watchers, Miami looks increasingly likely to take a direct hit from a massive hurricane packing sustained winds of 150-155 mph.


More than 100,000 Miami residents have been instructed to leave their homes on barrier islands, including Miami Beach, and in low-lying mainland areas starting Thursday morning which has created a logistics nightmare at Florida's airports and on highway evacuation routes.


According to the Washington Post, airlines added flights earlier this week to accommodate a surge in demand but many have been canceled and airports have warned that operations will be halted once winds exceed 55 mph.


Late Wednesday, American Airlines announced it would begin winding down its operations in Florida and had canceled flights at its Miami hub as well as to airports in Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Sarasota and West Palm Beach. In addition, it canceled a handful of international flights from Europe and South American that were scheduled to land in Miami on Friday.


Officials at Key West International Airport said they would suspend commercial operations at the end of the day Thursday, and Miami International Airport advised travelers it will halt operations at the airport when winds reach 55 mph. Generally, airlines do not operate in sustained crosswinds that exceed 35 mph, and the Federal Aviation Administration tower ceases operations after winds of 55 mph, the airport noted.


Of course, the added flights didn't stop Delta from taking advantage of the surge in demand from frightened travelers.


Meanwhile, as the Wall Street Journal points out, those looking to flee by car are facing similar hassles with long lines at gas stations...at least at the ones that have any gas left to sell.

Now Even The Immigrants Are Against Immigration


Deep left wing bias in the media meant government was out of touch with public opinion on immigration (Image source)


Britain’s established and assimilated immigrant groups, like other immigrant communities in Europe, are turning against government and European Union mass immigration policy according to a recent report published in the Financial Times.

Speaking to the financial newspaper's political correspondent Henry Mance, immigrants in highly “multicultural” areas around the United Kingdom are frustrated by the sheer number of people now entering the country, as well as the “something for nothing” culture that comes along with it. This 'free stuff' culture is of course promoted by Fabian Socialism, and the middle class dupes of wealthy elitist socialists such as members of fringe groups like 'Occupy', the fascistic pressure group Unite Against Fascism and The Socialist Workers Party

Satvinder, an Indian-born, UK immigrant now living in West Bromwich, speaking to Mance, said of EU migrants: “They’ve never paid into the system… When my father came, he never claimed a penny in benefits. If he was out of a job one week, he was in a job the next week.”

The phenomenon of pro-border control migrants, or those of a migrant background, is not new, and not limited to the United Kingdom either. Earlier this year, from unbiased reports we learned that allegedly extremist right wing German political parties such as AfD are attracting support from immigrants :
One man who’s profile picture is himself with a Turkish flag, wrote on the [Alternative for Germany party] page that recent migrants are, “antisocial parasites who take what they want by force.”
Another man with an Arabic name says that migrants are responsible for the huge increase of reported rape, sexual assaults and violent crime and affirms that AfD have his support.
(AfD are not in fact extremist and it is debatable whether they are right wing in the rational view od people who are not politically committed to the destruction of Germany and Europe. Those who call AfD extremist and neo - Nazi are the same kind of people who scream for the death penalty when a white man accused of raping a woman says "She was asking for it, but are willing to support 'left wing' nutters who say when German women get raped by Muslim immigrants it is their own fault because German women living in Germany have not been willing to adapt to the culture and traditions of the new arrivals (quaint, endearing traditions like not leaving the house unless accompanied by a male family member.)

The FT’s report finds that “As of 2013, the last year for which full data exists, there were 6,000 Polish nationals in Sandwell, roughly on a par with the local Indian population. Since then, central Europeans have kept coming to a town already suffering from social and economic strains.

“At the moment I feel we’re being abused,” Octavia Carrasca, originally from St Lucia, commented. People are coming here and they’re getting things I never got.”

Her comments chime in with research conducted by the British Social Attitudes (BSA) Survey in 2014, which found that while migrant-on-migrant attitudes were broadly positive, there was a strain of anti mass migration sentiment within immigrant communities.
