US intel report sinks Pompeo’s bluster with admission Iran & US both want peace in Afghanistan US military intelligence has admitted Iran has no plans to “actively oppose” the peace process in Afghanistan, directly contradicting one of US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s many allegations about the Islamic Republic. The report by the lead inspector general on the state of the ongoing war in Afghanistan poured cold water on Pompeo’s speculation that Iran is seeking to upend the strained peace process between the US and the Taliban, confirming the Defense Intelligence Agency has no reason to believe Tehran will “actively oppose” the negotiations that are supposed to end with the US withdrawing troops.

Iran's top cop among nine targeted by new round of US sanctions Not letting the pandemic soften its hard line on Tehran, Washington has sanctioned nine Iranian officials over alleged human rights violations during last year’s protests, including Interior Minister Abdolreza Rahmani Fazli. Announcing the new sanctions on Wednesday, the US Department of the Treasury said that Fazli issued orders authorizing the Law Enforcement Forces (LEF) to use lethal force in response to the November 2019 protests. At least 23 minors were killed during clashes between protesters and the LEF, the Treasury claims. Also sanctioned were six LEF officials, the manager of the LEF cooperative, and a senior officer in the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), whic...

UK government CAPITULATES to rebellion of Labour-led councils over June school reopening A revolt of mainly Labour-led local councils has pushed 10 Downing Street to admit it will not penalize some 1,500 primary schools in England who said they’d disobey its call for reopening from Covid-19 closures. Schools across the UK were shuttered due to the pandemic on March 20, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government sought to open them back up on June 1, so the pupils would get at least a month’s worth of classroom time before the summer holidays.  That plan is now looking highly unlikely, as eighteen local councils – including two led by the PM’s own Conservatives – have openly rejected the plan, along with the opposition Labour party and the NASUWT t...

COMEY urged probe into Flynn by misrepresenting Russian contacts, declassified memo shows Ex-FBI director James Comey pushed to investigate Trump’s incoming national security adviser Michael Flynn despite lacking any evidence Flynn had shared classified info with Russian officials, a newly-declassified memo reveals. It was Comey who told President Barack Obama and other administration officials that “incoming NSA Flynn is speaking frequently with Russian Ambassador Kislyak” in a meeting documented in the January 2017 memo by National Security Advisor Susan Rice, the unredacted first page of which was obtained by CBS on Tuesday. The FBI director admits he “has no indication thus far that Flynn has passed classified information to Kislyak,” and no real ...

New tapes of Poroshenko-Biden calls reveal ‘independent’ Ukraine was total US client On top of firing a prosecutor on orders from US Vice President Joe Biden, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko also robbed his own people by raising tariffs to please his US overlords, according to audio of their alleged calls. On Tuesday, Ukrainian parliamentarian Andrii Derkach published audio recordings of what sounds like Poroshenko’s conversations with various Obama administration officials in 2015 and 2016. Derkach said he got the audio from investigative journalists, who told him that Poroshenko personally recorded the calls. They have not been independently verified. If true, however, they show the president in Kiev literally taking orders from Washington, eve...

Keep away: US Navy issues strange warning for mariners to stay 100 yards away or be seen as threat The US Navy has issued new guidelines for mariners in the Persian Gulf, warning anyone against approaching too close to its vessels.
