Tens of Thousands Rally Against War With Iran in Over 70 Cities Across US — The Anti-Media – January 5, 2020

(TMU) — People from across the United States heeded calls from the ANSWER Coalition and CODEPINK on Saturday, resulting in protests against a possible U.S. war on Iran in more than 70 cities across 38 U.S. states.

The protests, demanding for U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq and ending sanctions on Iran, were called for earlier this week in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s ordering of additional U.S. troops to the Middle East in response to protests following U.S. air strikes. Tensions quickly increased as the U.S. ordered the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, the popular leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Quds Force, and, as a result, the protests quickly morphed into an emergency mobilization aimed at stopping what some fear could become World War III.

They’re Killing Us Like Dogs: A Massacre In Bolivia and a Plea for Help — Collective Evolution – November 28, 2019

In Brief

The Facts:

I first persons view of what is happening in Bolivia right now as political unrest is rampant. Many people are suffering and the de facto government has threatened journalists with sedition should they spread “disinformation” by covering protests.

Reflect On:

Why are there always opposing narratives with regards to such events from mainstream media and independent media? Why is independent media being censored so much? What’s going on here?

 

(Collective-Evolution)  I am writing from Bolivia just days after witnessing the November 19 military massacre at the Senkata gas plant in the indigenous city of El Alto, and the tear-gassing of a peaceful funeral procession on November 21 to commemorate the dead. These are examples, unfortunately, of the modus operandi of the de facto government that seized control in a coup that forced Evo Morales out of power. →
