Recommended Readings (2016/06/23)

Hello everyone, and for the news junkies who has been following the Brexit, it is just like unwrapping Christmas presents on Christmas Day. Well, tonight it is on. The Brexit Referendum on EU Membership in the United Kingdom and note that you can follow the coverage on Twitter from 9am AEST tomorrow morning at https://twitter.com/Ne_News_Brexit. The debate over EU membership has divided conservatives in the United Kingdom, and it has also divided the left (http://www.globalresearch.ca/part-of-the-european-union-what-should-socialists-argue-in-the-uk-brexit-referendum/5532065), who argue that the European Union does not defend the rights of the people, and this is true. This article looks at the three sides, one for remain, one for leave, and one for abstaining. There is also a guide for the European Union from Professor Richard A. Werner that appeared on Global Research (http://www.globalresearch.ca/eu-basics-your-guide-to-the-uk-brexit-referendum-on-eu-membership/5532351). But no matter what happens tonight, the world is set to be a very different place when you wake up tomorrow morning, even though programmes like A Current Affair will be very likely to cover the mundane as opposed to this massive event that will change the world that we live in.

When you follow the coverage tomorrow, you need to follow some trends as noted by Open Europe (http://openeurope.org.uk/today/blog/eu-referendum-look-night/), and vote will close at around 22:00 UTC (which is around 07:00 our time), with results at around 2:30 tomorrow afternoon our time. And we need to emphasise the Twitter coverage tomorrow from 9:00am AEST, so you will need to get up early to see how everything goes, and based on polls, it looks like we may see a Brexit happening, and this could in turn lead to the collapse of the European Union.

Tomorrow is also the penultimate episode of Ne News on Radio Fodder, and next week will be the future of international relations (2016-3016).

Trojan Horses and Color Revolutions: The Role of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED)

William Blum William Blum 7 August 2017 Image: Award winning author William Blum This article is a chapter from  Rogue State: A Guide to the World’s Only Superpower  by William Blum published in 2005. How many Americans could identify the National Endowment for Democracy? An organization which often does exactly the opposite of what its name implies. The NED was set up in the early 1980s under President Reagan in the wake of all the negative revelations about the CIA in the second half of the 1970s. The latter was a remarkable period. Spurred by Watergate – the Church committee of the Senate, the Pike committee of the House, and the Rockefeller Commission, created by the president, were all busy investigating the CIA. Seemingly every other day there was a new headline about the discovery of some awful thing, even criminal conduct, the CIA had been mixed up in for years. The Agency was getting an exceedingly bad name, and it was causing the powers-th...

CIA Backed Color Revolutions

F. William Engdahl New Eastern Outlook 1 October 2017 Many readers likely never heard the name of the remarkable Serbia-born political operator named  Srđa Popović . Yet he and his organization, CANVAS, have played a lead role in most every CIA-backed Color Revolution since he led the toppling of Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic in 2000, at least fifty according to last count. Now he has turned his sights on Hungary and Hungary’s popular and defiant Prime Minister Victor Orban . On September 8, the professional regime-change specialist Srđa Popović came to Budapest and joined with the anti-Orban opposition groups in front of the Hungarian Parliament. It‘s clear that Popović was not in town to promote his Hungarian book on nonviolent regime change but rather to give aid to the anti-Orban parties before Hungarian elections in spring of 2018. Many in Hungary smell the oily hand of Hungarian-born regime-change financier George Soros behind the Popović appe...

Israel Blames Brussels Bombing on EU Imposed “Labelling of Goods” Produced in Israeli Settlements in Palestine

Alarabby.co.uk The New Arab (via Global Research) 22 March 2016 NOTE: While the world has been shocked by the events in Brussels, Israel is using the events to score political points against the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions movement that is gaining ground to end the apartheid system that is currently used in Israel against the Palestinian people. It is also worth noting that "Daesh" (also known as Islamic State) who allegedly carried out the attacks on Brussels is funded by Israel among others, including the European Union and the United States. It has also been argued that the "video" of what happened in Brussels may have been from another terrorist attack in Minsk in 2011 (more information from Global Research (http://www.globalresearch.ca/more-fake-video-reports-of-the-brussels-terror-attacks/5516074). --- An Israeli minister has said that a recent European Union law regarding the labelling of goods produced in Israeli settlements illegally built in...
