The only reason the Pentagon would want to rewrite their supply chains and become less reliant on the rest of the world
is that they see a war on the horizon.
War tends to disrupt global trade, the US government is now preparing for conflict by securing its supply chains.

How the @washingtonpost lies about #Golan today: #1 Golan is Israeli-*occupied*, not “controlled”. #2 its indigenous residents, are *Syrian citizens*, not unspecified “Arabs”. #3 the #Syria’n citizens of occupied Golan are loyal to their own national govt, not any one “family.” pic.twitter.com/kT0HSIxGWZ

Pakistani Poker: Playing Saudi Arabia Against China
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-07/pakistani-poker-playing-saudi-arabia-against-china
Desperate for funding to fend off a financial crisis fueled in part by mounting debt to China,
Pakistan is playing a complicated game of poker that could hand Saudi Arabia a strategic victory
in its bitter feud with Iran at the People’s Republic’s expense.
►The Pakistani moves threaten a key leg of the USD60 billion plus Chinese investment in the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC),
a crown jewel of Chinese President Xi Jinping’s Belt and Road initiative.
They also could
►jeopardize Chinese hopes to create a second overland route to Iran, a key node in China’s transportation links to Europe.
Finally,
►they grant Saudi Arabia a prominent place in the Chinese-funded port of Gwadar
that would significantly weaken Iran’s ability to compete with its Indian-backed seaport of Chabahar.
Taken together, the moves risk dragging not only Pakistan but also China into the all but open war between Saudi Arabia and Iran.
ROADS
Pakistan’s first move became evident in early September with the government’s failure to authorize disbursements for road projects,
already hit by delays in Chinese approvals, that are part of CPEC’s Western route,
linking the province of Balochistan with the troubled region of Xinjiang in north-western China.
In doing so, Pakistan implicitly targeted a key Chinese driver for CPEC: the pacification of Xinjiang’s Turkic Muslim population
through a combination of
►economic development enhanced by trade and economic activity flowing through CPEC
►as well as brutal repression and mass re-education.
The combination of Pakistani and Chinese delays “has virtually brought progress work on the Western route to a standstill,”.
RAILS
Pakistani Railways Minister Sheikh Rashid, in a further bid to bring Pakistani government expenditure under control
(that at current rates could force the country to seek a $US 12 billion bailout from the International Monetary Fund)
has cut $2 billion dollars from the $8.2B budget to upgrade and expand Pakistan’s railway network (a key pillar of CPEC).
Mr. Rashid plans to slash a further two billion dollars.
“Pakistan is a poor country that cannot afford (the) huge burden of the loans…. CPEC is like the backbone for Pakistan, but our eyes and ears are open,” Mr. Rashid said.
NEW PRIME MINISTER
The budget cuts came on the back of Prime Minister Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party that projected CPEC
(prior to the July 25 election that swept him to power)
as a modern-day equivalent of the British East India Company, which dominated the Indian subcontinent in the 19th century.
PTI criticism included denouncing Chinese-funded mass transit projects in three cities in Punjab
as a 'squandering of funds' that could have better been invested in social spending.
PTI activists suggested that the projects had involved corrupt practices.
SAUDIS
Pakistan’s final move was to invite Saudi Arabia
►to build a refinery in Gwadar
and
►invest in Balochistan mining.
The Chinese questioning of Pakistan’s move became evident
when the Pakistani government (suddenly) backed off suggestions that Saudi Arabia would becomepart of CPEC.
Senior Saudi officials this week visited Islamabad and Gwadar to discuss the deal that would also involve
►deferred payments on Saudi oil supplies to Pakistan
and
►create a strategic oil reserve close to Iran’s border.
"The incumbent government is bringing Saudi Arabia closer to Gwadar.... the hardline Sunni-Wahhabi state would be closer than ever to the Iranian border. This is likely to infuriate Tehran."
POKER
Pakistan’s game of poker amounts to
►a risky gamble that serves Pakistani and Saudi purposes,
►puts China whose prestige and treasure are on the line in a difficult spot,
►could perilously spark tension along the Pakistan-Iran border,
►and is likely to provoke Iranian counter moves.
It also
►risks putting Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Iran, who depend on China economically in different ways, in an awkward position.
The Saudi engagement
►promises up to US$10 billion in investments
as well as
►balance of payments relief.
It potentially could
►ease US concerns that a possible IMF bailout would help Pakistan service debt to China.
A refinery and strategic oil reserve in Gwadar would serve Saudi Arabia’s goal of preventing Chabahar, the Indian-backed Iranian port,
from emerging as a powerful Arabian Sea hub at a time that the United States is imposing sanctions designed to choke off Iranian oil exports.
TARGET IRAN
A Saudi think tank, the International Institute for Iranian Studies,
(previously known as the Arabian Gulf Centre for Iranian Studies (AGCIS) that is believed to be backed by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman,)
argued last year in a study that
►Chabahar posed “a direct threat to the Arab Gulf states” that called for “immediate counter measures.”
Written by Mohammed Hassan Husseinbor, an Iranian political researcher of Baloch origin, the study warned that Chabahar
►would enable Iran to increase its oil market share in India at the expense of Saudi Arabia,
►raise foreign investment in the Islamic republic,
►increase government revenues,
►and allow Iran to project power in the Gulf and the Indian Ocean.
Sistan and Baluchestan
Mr. Husseinbor suggested Saudi support for a low-level Baloch insurgency in Iran could serve as a countermeasure.
that
►“Saudis could persuade Pakistan to soften its opposition to any potential Saudi support for the Iranian Baluch"
that
►"The Arab-Baluch alliance is deeply rooted in the history of the Gulf region and their opposition to Persian domination,”
Noting the vast expanses of Iran’s Sistan and Baluchestan Province, Mr. Husseinbor went on to say that
►“it would be a formidable challenge, if not impossible, for the Iranian government
to protect such long distances and secure Chabahar in the face of widespread Baluch opposition,
particularly if this opposition is supported by Iran’s regional adversaries and world powers.”
INSURRECTION
Saudi militants reported (at the time the study was published) that funds from the kingdom
were flowing into anti-Shiite, anti-Iranian Sunni Muslim ultra-conservative madrassas or religious seminaries in Balochistan.
US President Donald J. Trump’s national security adviser, John Bolton, last year before assuming office,
at the request of Mr. Trump’s then strategic adviser, Steve Bannon,
drafted a plan that envisioned US support “for the democratic Iranian opposition,” including in Balochistan and Iran’s Sistan and Balochistan province.
All of this does not bode well for CPEC.
China may be able to accommodate Pakistan by improving commercial terms for CPEC-related projects and Pakistani debt as well as easing Pakistani access to the Chinese market.
China, however, is likely to find it far more difficult to prevent the Saudi-Iranian rivalry from spinning out of control in its backyard.

Eric Zuesse: "The Biggest Threat to US National Security Is the US Government"
https://southfront.org/eric-zuesse-the-biggest-threat-to-us-national-security-is-the-us-government/
A dictatorship does not represent the public but only the aristocracy that, behind the scenes, controls the government.
"Jonathan H. Adler, Professor at Case Western University School of Law, noted, regarding George W. Bush’s secret policy for the NSA to access everyone’s phone-records, that “The metadata collection program is constitutional (at least according to Judge Kavanaugh),” and he presented Judge Kavanaugh’s entire published opinion on that. Kavanaugh’s opinion stated that the 4th Amendment to the US Constitution could be shoved aside because he thinks that the ‘national security’ of the United States is more important than the Constitution.

Eric Zuesse: "The Biggest Threat to US National Security Is the US Government"
https://southfront.org/eric-zuesse-the-biggest-threat-to-us-national-security-is-the-us-government/
A dictatorship does not represent the public but only the aristocracy that, behind the scenes, controls the government.
"Jonathan H. Adler, Professor at Case Western University School of Law, noted, regarding George W. Bush’s secret policy for the NSA to access everyone’s phone-records, that “The metadata collection program is constitutional (at least according to Judge Kavanaugh),” and he presented Judge Kavanaugh’s entire published opinion on that. Kavanaugh’s opinion stated that the 4th Amendment to the US Constitution could be shoved aside because he thinks that the ‘national security’ of the United States is more important than the Constitution.
‘national security’ of the United States is more important than the Constitution
The Constitution is a fucking piece of toilet paper, it's not going to defend your rights by jumping out of it's box and going "OK you scalawags, you're ignoring the Constitution, you get your buts back in line RIGHT NOW!" Nope, not gonna happen. The only things that can defend the people's freedom are arms and the people that are willing to use them.
The only reason I still hold a very small hope is that there's over 100 million gun owners in the U.S.. So the people taking back their country is still possible. I've spoken to many former military personnel, they'd side with the people in a second. I've spoken to more than a few in the military as well, and let's just say they're not willing to fire on the citizens.

The thing is that what Kvanaugh, and, in extend, all the US governments of the last decades, mean with "national security" has nothing to do with nation or security. They talk about globalist interests. They intend to secure their plots, not their country. They tear apart constitution, that should be the most important and superior law of the country, in order to protect their agenda. They brought down the towers then they started spying on their own people. They use constitutional right of free speech to spread their lies then they deny the very same rights to their opponents. Of course they delegated this censorship to the 3rd side, to private sector, big tech companies. But let's not forget - big tech companies gained their positions with large help from the US government. And US taxpayers' money. And big tech companies actively cooperate with the same US government, that ostensibly criticize them for censorship.
I don't think people, who do not respect constitution, should be allowed to lead the country. If they despise constitutional laws, try to abuse them or change them to make them suitable to their personal interests, or interests of their sponsors, then they should be held accountable for treason.

Yes my friend, I know and agree with you. The problem is, there's never been ANY accountability, and with the current system, their never will be.

Wow. That's some of the most twisted logic I've ever seen to justify an illegal campaign.

Six vehicles left two hours after #JamalKhashoggi went inside the Consulate. Each group of 3 went to 2 different directions. 2 of the vans had Saudi number plates (diplomatic immunity) & black covers on the windows. Police think Jamal’s body might be carried out in one of these. pic.twitter.com/vsk3qZEIWa
