Who is Antifa? Antifa started out in the blue-collar factories in Nazi-Germany in opposition to Hitler. On the ground-level, Antifa had the best of intentions. However, they eventually became a tool of the Far-Left under the control of George Soros to further His agenda. It is sad to see an organization, which had its roots in Nazi-Germany opposing Hitler, fall under the control of a man, who was in fact a Nazi collaborator. George Soros is a Hungarian Jew, who is responsible for turning in other Hungarian Jews over to the Nazi SS for extermination. This is the man who...

29 years ago this fortnight, Pakistan's dictator -- the general who made jihad an integral part of Pakistani State policy -- died in a mysterious air crash. Did the KGB, the then USSR's dreaded espionage agency, assassinate Zia-ul Haq? Was India's RA&W responsible for blowing Zia's military aircraft out of the skies?

MANILA — Since winning the presidency a year ago, the words “martial law” have rarely been far from Rodrigo Duterte’s lips. Amid calls to “slaughter” criminal suspects, the Philippine president has often mused about the possibility of declaring it, casting himself as a reluctant savior, the strongman who does not want to take charge — but would. On Tuesday evening, after clashes between security forces and Islamist insurgents left three dead, he fulfilled his own prediction, declaring martial law across a vast swath of the southern Philippines. On Wednesday, he said the law would be as “harsh” as it was...

Hollywood hand-wringing over Mr. Trump’s Election Day victory was taken to a new level Wednesday night when Ms. O’Donnell told over 900,000 followers that she “fully” supported the imposition of martial law prior to Jan. 20. “I fully support imposing martial law — delaying the inauguration — until Trump is ‘cleared’ of all charges,” Ms. O’Donnell, who formerly co-hosted “The View” with Barbara Walters, tweeted.http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/jan/12/rosie-odonnell-calls-for-imposing-martial-law-to-s/

On Wednesday, she called for martial law to be invoked. “I FULLY SUPPORT IMPOSING MARTIAL LAW – DELAYING THE INAUGURATION – UNTIL TRUMP IS “CLEARED” OF ALL CHARGES,” O’Donnell wrote...

Editor’s Comment: Take a look at the possibilities – Trump could win the popular vote, but lose badly in the electoral college, or the “official” vote tally, for popular and electoral could be called for Hillary; Trump might even win the electoral college… maybe. Either which way this thing goes, there are going to be millions and millions of angry voters in this country, and there is no sense of normalcy at all. Things are at fever pitch, and the country is at a revolutionary point. There is a usurper at work stealing the election – or so it...

Jeff Berwick Septemeber 26, 2016 As we enter into the last week before the end of the Jubilee Year, the National Guard has been deployed in Charlotte, North Carolina and massive military convoys have been deployed in the streets of New York City. This is a continuation of last summer’s Jade Helm seven-state military exercise that many in the area saw as a prelude to military occupation. After Jade Helm came the US Army Special Operations Command’s Unconventional Warfare Exercise 16 (UWEX 16) that ran in Texas through June.

The Progressives have kept their eye on the ball. To them it was always a game of two steps forward then one step back. If you turn on, tune in, browse or otherwise peruse the alternative media you will undoubtedly come across the question, “Will President Obama declare Martial Law?” or one of its many variants: “Can President Obama use martial law to stay in the White House?” “What is Obama’s plan to declare martial law?” “President Obama signs martial law order.” “President Obama will suspend 2016 election and impose martial law.” And of course there has to be an...

Analysts generally consider military influence in politics and society to be a critical impediment to the development of democratic political and civil rights and freedoms. According to Freedom House, for example, greater military involvement in government politics decreases civil liberties and political rights in any given country; this infringes on a government's ability to develop democracy. Turkey may be an exception. The military has deep roots in society, and its influence predates the founding of the republic. But rather than hinder democratization, Turkey's military remains an important component in the checks and balances that protect Turkish democracy. Herein lies...
