Ja echt super vet om te lezen. Kan zo een thriller schrijven van wat er allemaal op de geopolitieke/militaire achtergrond speelt.

Duterte is geen priester, heeft naar eigen zeggen zijn 1e moord gepleegd op of voor zijn 16e. Maar hij speelt ook een hoop. Die van de onvoorspelbare gek, met effect overigens.

Volgens schattingen van mensenrechtenorganisaties zijn er in iets meer dan een jaar ruim 9.000 (vermeende) drugsdealers en -gebruikers doodgeschoten op straat in de Filipijnen. Door politieagenten, door zelfverklaarde milities… En dat zonder dat ze voor een rechtbank verschenen zijn, maar mét de goedkeuring van president Rodrigo Duterte (72).

Dat wil(de) het volk toch. Als hij iets geroepen heeft tijdens verkiezingen is dat hij alles ging uitroeien en had een voorgeschiedenis die hem daarin ondersteunde. Ik ben benieuwd hoeveel die mensenrechtenorganisaties voor elkaar hebben gekregen in dat land vol problemen.

 

[chrisk]

Zijn dat dezelfde mensenrechten organisaties die westerse landen een invasive species laten importeren en mensen terecht laten stellen voor hate speech?

Zoveel low energy countries Ze hadden dbb ook moeten ondervragen!

For example, in spring 2016, when Trump had not yet secured the Republican nomination for president and Pew Research Center surveyed publics in Europe, Asia and Canada, only 12% in the UK had confidence in Trump’s international abilities. But in 2017, 22% now have confidence in Trump, a rise of 10 percentage points. A similar jump occurred in the Netherlands (+10), as well as in Canada (+8), Japan (+15) and Australia (+18) outside of Europe.

Donald Trump received support from two Nigerian girls kidnapped by Boko Haram

Don’t let the critics bring you down.

That was the essence of the message two young Nigerians had for President Donald Trump at a recent meeting in the White House.

..

“Mr. President, we urge you to keep America safe and strong. We know that some people are trying to discourage you. Do not be discouraged. You are right to keep American [sic.] safe and strong. Not only for America. But for the world. If American [sic.] is not safe and strong, where can people like us look for hope, when there is danger? Finally, we urge you to keep making America prosperous.”

The U.S. president spoke to his Nigerian counterpart, Muhammadu Buhari, in February in a telephone call, during which he expressed support for the possible sale of attack aircraft to the West African country. The Obama administration had put the sale on ice due to human rights concerns and indiscipline by the Nigerian military, including the accidental bombing of a refugee camp in Rann, northeast Nigeria, that killed more than 100 people in January.

The Curious Case of the Black Male Prostitute Found Dead Inside a Wealthy Democratic Donor’s Home

On July 27, 2016, 26-year-old Gemmel Moore was found in the bathroom of a West Hollywood, Calif., apartment belonging to Ed Buck. Moore was young, black and poor. Buck was 62 years old, white, wealthy and powerful.

Even after a number of young, black, male sex workers have stepped forward with apparent photographic evidence that Buck was one of their clients. Even after each one of those men separately all tell the same story: Not only did Ed Buck have a fetish for black men, he was known in West Hollywood’s gay community as paying top dollar for sex with 20-something black escorts ... But only after injecting them with drugs.

Buck gave the maximum amount possible to the Hillary Clinton campaign, and online sources show he has donated more than a quarter of a billion dollars to Democratic candidates. A quick Google Image search turns up pictures of Buck with some of the most powerful Democratic politicians in the country, including Hillary Clinton and California Gov. Jerry Brown.

A joint investigation by the Washington Examiner and the nonprofit watchdog group Judicial Watch found that former President Clinton gave 215 speeches and earned $48 million while his wife presided over U.S. foreign policy, raising questions about whether the Clintons fulfilled ethics agreements related to the Clinton Foundation during Hillary Clinton‘s tenure as secretary of state.

Saudi Arabia, for example, was a key Clinton benefactor. The oil-producing giant has had a relationship with the Clintons dating back to Bill Clinton’s time as governor of Arkansas.

In 1992, while running for president, then-Gov. Clinton secured a $3.5 million Saudi donation for a Middle East studies program at the University of Arkansas.

A few weeks after Clinton was inaugurated president, the Saudis kicked in another $20 million. Both deals were brokered by a close Clinton friend, David Edwards.

Overall, the Clinton Foundation has received staggering sums from Saudi benefactors — between $18 million and $50 million. (The foundation’s donations are reported in ranges, not specific numbers.)

While Hillary Clinton served as secretary of state, Bill Clinton gave two speeches in Saudi Arabia, earning a total of $600,000.

In January 2011, for example, Bill Clinton spoke at a global business forum in Riyadh founded by the Saudi Investment Authority and sponsored by the Dabbagh Group, a commercial colossus with close ties to the Saudi royal family.

His fee for the speech: $300,000.

During Hillary Clinton’s time at the State Department, Bill Clinton also gave four speeches in the United Arab Emirates, earning $1.1 million. For two speeches in Egypt, he earned $425,000.

UAE-linked entities also have donated at least $2.7 to $11.5 million to the Clinton Foundation, and Egyptian entities have donated at least $250,000 to $750,000.

While the State Department did not object to Bill Clinton’s speeches in the Arab world — or anywhere else — it did turn down a proposed consultancy with a longtime Clinton friend and supporter, the Israeli-American media mogul Haim Saban.

In the period after Hillary Clinton signed the ethics agreement, Bill Clinton gave four speeches in China or to Chinese-sponsored entities in the U.S., earning $1.7 million.

By comparison, between 2001 through 2007 — just after he left office, when a former president is normally most in demand — he gave seven speeches in China, earning $1.4 million.

Groups with interests in China also donated between $750,000 and $1.75 million, at a minimum, to the Clinton Foundation.

Taiwan took an interest in Bill Clinton as well. In November 2010, he spoke on global warming and social inequality at a Taipei event sponsored by Singapore-based UNI Strategic. His fee? $400,000.

The Taiwan Economic and Cultural Office donated close to $1 million to the Clinton Foundation, and the Taiwan Mobile Foundation and a semiconductor manufacturer also contributed.

Turkish sponsors paid Bill Clinton $1 million for three speeches, including one to an Arab stock exchange.

In Russia, Bill Clinton gave two speeches for $625,000. One was to the Russian investment bank, Renaissance Capital, at a 2010 event titled “Russian and the Commonwealth of Independent States: Going Global.”

The State Department background memo described the bank as “focused on the emerging markets of Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Sub-Saharan Africa.”

The Russian Standard Bank also donated to the foundation.

Vond dat artikel van The Atlantic al een nothing burger. Wel mooi dat ze berichten waarin gesproken wordt over het verknip, verknippen. Maar volgens mij leek het alleen wat als je helemaal in de narrative zit dat Wikileaks een russian spy agency is.
