EDITORIAL: We Missed The Big Story

Ne News
28 April 2018

Throughout the world (well, at least in the Western World), there has been a lot of coverage of late involving the British Royal Family. A couple of days ago, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge welcomed their new-born son into the world. And coverage of the upcoming wedding of Prince Harry and Meaghan Markle will be happening on 19 May 2018. And no doubt there was a lot of excitement on this 'news' story of the new prince, who will be raised in privilege and will inherit his position, which is UNELECTED, and will be an unelected 'head of state' in 16 countries, including Australia. It is worth noting that none of this royal 'news' affects the world we live in.

However, yesterday something happened that WILL AFFECT THE WORLD WE LIVE IN. Yesterday, Kim Jong-un (the leader of North Korea) and Moon Jae-in (the President of South Korea) met, and at around 17:00 KST (18:00 AEST), news came through that the Korean War, which has been going on since the 1950s will end by the end of 2018. That's right, a war (note that the two were technically at war as the war ended in an Armistice and not a Treaty) that lasted for over 60 years will end in 2018 by a treaty.

Of course, most media outlets in the West (and in particular the commercial media) didn't devote as much coverage of this world-changing event, as there were more coverage of the British Royal Family and the birth of the new prince and the upcoming wedding of Prince Harry and Meaghan Markle than an event in Panmunjeom that will change the world.

Take A Current Affair for example, the Number 1 "Current Affairs" program in Australia. Nothing on talks on the Korean Peninsula, but plenty of time for a tradie's video revenge or Uber Eats under fire or even Bill Cosby and an interview with Liz Ellis. But nothing on the biggest news story of the day that will change the world, and bring the world onto the edge of a peaceful future.

Ne News congratulates both North Korea and South Korea on achieving this historic milestone, and hopefully both leaders get what they deserve for this moment: the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize.

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...

EDITORIAL: 14 Defining Characteristics of Fascism

Ne News 7 April 2017 At the moment, there are concerns worldwide of moves towards fascism, and in particular a fascist world government that will be the centrepiece of the New World Order. However, the good news is that it is falling apart with the United Kingdom leaving the European Union (which is essentially the Fourth Reich, following the blueprint done by IG Farben during the Third Reich of Nazi Germany). However, it should be noted that work on this editorial started just a couple of days before Brexit was made official. A few years back, Dr. Lawrence Britt analysed the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia) and several Latin American regimes (most notably Pinochet in Chile). There were fourteen defining characters (which are indicated in bold with comments in normal text). 1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism - Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other parap...
