“Only once has a known teratogen like cannabis been marketed globally. That was thalidomide,” said Dr. Albert Reece, a professor at Edith Cowan University. “In the womb, it can not only interfere with brain development but basically amputate the forebrain,” he warned. “But as with thalidomide, no one is properly looking at the side-effects. They are frightening.”

Kurds Feel ‘Betrayed’ by US’s Syria Withdrawal, May Move Closer to Russia, Iran
The Kurds in eastern Syria are in panic mode after U.S. President Donald Trump announced that an estimated 2,000 soldiers would soon be removed from the country. “The Kurds must decide between total annihilation by Turkey or the [Bashar] Assad dictatorship,” implying that the Kurds would choose Assad.

2018 Saw A Global Revolt Against Climate Change Policies

Politicians and voters pushed back at attempts to raise energy prices as part of the climate crusade. It started in June with election of Ontario Premier Doug Ford…on a platform that included axing the Canadian province’s cap-and-trade program.

34 Reasons Why War with Russia Is Inevitable
I frequently hear the following: Russia is a Christian nation. Putin is good Christian man. Russia only wants to defend its borders. Putin is the only obstacle between the New World Order and the people of the world. Perhaps this is true, but Putin is indeed preparing to start World War III and he has been for the past four years.

Christian man beaten and threatened by Muslims in Pakistan faces imminent deportation from UK
Could Theresa May’s government get any more venal, to say nothing of suicidal? Britain is under siege from Islamic jihadists, and they’re deporting Christians. Last night a Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar” stabbed three people in Manchester. Was he born in Britain? Whether he was or not, there are plenty of jihadists in Britain today who were not born there, and they are not being deported. Instead, this Christian is. The land of the Magna Carta is dead and decaying rapidly.
