Bloomberg, “Kushner Is Leaving Tillerson in the Dark on Middle East Talks, Sources Say”, 2 Dec 2017:
- Rex Tillerson worries secret plan could plunge region into chaos.
-White House rejects accusation State Department isn’t informed.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson is increasingly alarmed by what he sees as secret talks between Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, and Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman—fearful that the discussions could backfire and tip the region into chaos, according to three people familiar with Tillerson’s concerns.
The central goal of the Kushner-Prince Mohammed negotiations, as described by two people with knowledge of the talks, is for an historic agreement featuring the creation of a Palestinian state or territory backed financially by a number of countries including Saudi Arabia, which could put tens of billions of dollars toward the effort.
A lasting Middle East peace treaty has been a U.S. goal for decades, and at the start of his administration Trump assigned the 36-year-old Kushner to head up the effort to make it happen.
Tillerson believes Kushner hasn’t done enough to share details of the talks with the State Department, according to the people, leaving senior U.S. diplomats in the dark on the full extent of the highly sensitive negotiations.
“The problem is, the senior presidential adviser does not consult with the State Department—and it’s unclear the level of consultation that goes on with the NSC,” one of the people familiar with Tillerson’s concerns said, referring to the National Security Council. “And that’s a problem for both the NSC and the State Department and it’s not something we can easily solve.”
The concerns predate reports this week that Trump may move to oust Tillerson by the end of the year—reports the president rejected but which Tillerson’s team believes are being stoked by Kushner allies, one person said. An administration official said Kushner had nothing to do with those reports.
[...]
It isn’t clear how far along the discussions are between Kushner and Prince Mohammed, three people said. And some in the U.S. government are skeptical the effort will succeed, in part because of the historic intractability of Israelis and Palestinians and because any peace deal would ultimately require the support of many competing leaders in the region.
The State Department officials’ skepticism about the Middle East discussions also reveals ongoing frustration at the president’s decision to go around them and the U.S. diplomatic corps he frequently disparages. Instead, Trump placed delicate peace negotiations in the hands of Kushner, who has no experience in diplomacy and little background in the complexities of one of the world’s most volatile regions.
Yet Trump, who has long spoken of Mideast peace as the ultimate trophy for a career dealmaker, has shown unwavering faith in his son-in-law’s ability to deliver.“If you can’t produce peace in the Middle East, nobody can,” the president told Kushner onstage at a black-tie event celebrating his inauguration in January. “All my life I’ve been hearing that’s the toughest deal to make, but I have a feeling Jared is going to do a great job.”
“The greatest dangers in the Middle East today are Jared Kushner and Mohamed bin Salman”
The sort of Neo-con and right-wing think tankers, who in 2003 were saying that a war with Iraq would be a doddle, are back in business in Washington, pushing for war with Iran – and are stronger than ever.
Shortly before the earthquake in Baghdad, I was making the above point about Iraq stabilising to a European diplomat. He said this might be true, but that real danger to peace “comes from a combination of three people: Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Trump’s son-in-law and Middle East envoy Jared Kushner, and Bibi Netanyahu in Israel.”
Probably, the Saudis and the Americans exaggerate the willingness of Netanyahu and Israel to go to war. Netanyahu has always been strong on bellicose rhetoric, but cautious about real military conflict (except in Gaza, which was more massacre than war).
Israel’s military strength tends to be exaggerated and its army has not won a war outright since 1973. Previous engagements with Hezbollah have gone badly. Israeli generals know that the threat of military action can be more effective than its use in maximising Israeli political influence, but that actually going to war means losing control of the situation. They will know the saying of the 19th century German chief of staff, Helmuth Von Moltke, that “no plan survives contact with the enemy”.
But even if the Israelis do not intend to fight Hezbollah or Iran, this does not mean that they would not like somebody else to do so for them. Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi told me in an interview earlier this month that his greatest fear was a US-Iranian confrontation fought out in Iraq. This could happen directly or through proxies, but in either case would end the present fragile peace.
On the optimistic side, US policy in Iraq and Syria is largely run by the Pentagon and not the White House, and has not changed much since President Obama’s days. It has been successful in its aim of destroying Isis and the self-declared caliphate.
The wars in Iraq and Syria already have their winners and losers: President Bashar al-Assad stays in power in Damascus, as does a Shia-dominated government in Baghdad. An Iranian-backed substantially Shia axis in four countries – Iran, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon – stretches from the Afghan border to the Mediterranean. This is the outcome of the wars since 2011, which is not going to be reversed except by a US land invasion – as happened in Iraq in 2003.
The great danger in the Middle East today is that Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman and Jared Kushner appear to have a skewed and unrealistic understanding of the world around them. Inspector Clouseau seems to have a greater influence on Saudi policy than Machiavelli, going by the antics surrounding the forced resignation of Saad Hariri as Prime Minister of Lebanon. This sort of thing is not going to frighten the Iranians or Hezbollah.
The signs are that Iran has decided to go a long way to avoid confrontation with the US. In Iraq, it is reported that it will support the re-election of Abadi as prime minister which is also what the US wants. Iran knows that it has come out on the winning side in Iraq and Syria and does not need to flaunt its success. It may also believe that the Crown Prince is using anti-Iranian nationalist rhetoric to secure his own power and does not intend to do much about it.
Nobody has much to gain from another war in the Middle East, but wars are usually started by those who miscalculate their own strengths and interests. Both the US and Saudi Arabia have become “wild cards” in the regional pack. The sort of Neo-con and right-wing think tankers, who in 2003 were saying that a war with Iraq would be a doddle, are back in business in Washington, pushing for war with Iran – and are stronger than ever.
The wars in the Middle East should be ending, but they could just be entering a new phase. Leaders in the US and Saudi Arabia may not want a new war, but they might just blunder into one.
Politico, “Kushner took unannounced trip to Saudi Arabia”, 29 Oct 2017:
President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner returned home Saturday from an unannounced visit to Saudi Arabia — his third trip to the country this year.
Kushner left Washington, D.C., via commercial airline on Wednesday for the trip, which was not announced to the public, a White House official told POLITICO. He traveled separately from Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, who led a delegation to Riyadh last week to focus on combating terrorist financing.
Kushner was accompanied in the region by deputy national security adviser Dina Powell and Middle East envoy Jason Greenblatt. Greenblatt continued from Saudi Arabia to Amman, Jordan; Cairo; the West Bank city of Ramallah; and Jerusalem, where he was on Sunday.
Haaretz, “Israel, Egypt Pushed U.S. to Bomb Iran Before Nuclear Deal, John Kerry Says”, 29 Nov 2017:
Speaking at a Washington forum, the former secretary of state said that Prime Minister Netanyahu was ‘genuinely agitating toward action’ against Iran.
Former Secretary of State John Kerry said both Israel and Egypt pushed the United States to “bomb Iran” before the 2015 nuclear deal was struck.
Kerry defended the deal during a forum in Washington, where he said that a number of kings and foreign presidents told the U.S. that bombing was the only language Iran would understand.
Kerry said that in his opinion it was “a trap” because the same countries would have publicly criticized the U.S. if it did carry out a bombing of Iran as they were secretly supporting.
Kerry said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was “genuinely agitating toward action.”
Kerry said he didn’t know whether Iran would resume pursuing a nuclear weapon in 10 to 15 years after restrictions in the deal sunset, but he said it was the best deal the U.S. could get.
In October, lawmakers in the United States approved four different pieces of legislation targeting Iran and its proxy terror group in Lebanon, Hezbollah, after U.S. President Donald Trump refused to re-certify the nuclear deal, leaving its fate to Congress.
At the time, Netanyahu congratulated Trump for what he called his “courageous decision” not to recertify the nuclear deal with Iran.
“He boldly confronted Iran’s terrorist regime,” Netanyahu said. “If the Iran deal is left unchanged, one thing is absolutely certain. In a few years’ time, the world’s foremost terrorist regime will have an arsenal of nuclear weapons. And that’s a tremendous danger for our collective future.”
Netanyahu said Trump has created an “opportunity to fix this bad deal, to roll back Iran’s aggression and to confront its criminal support of terrorism.”
“That’s why Israel embraces this opportunity,” Netanyahu said.
Earlier this month, the United Nations agency monitoring Iran’s compliance with a landmark nuclear treaty issued a report Monday stating that the country is keeping its end of the deal that U.S. President Donald Trump claims Tehran has violated repeatedly.
The International Atomic Energy Agency report stopped short of declaring outright that Iran is honoring its obligations, in keeping with its official role as an impartial monitor of the restrictions the treaty placed on Tehran’s nuclear programs.
But in reporting no violations, the quarterly review’s takeaway was that Iran was honoring its commitments to crimp uranium enrichment and other activities that can serve both civilian and military nuclear programs.
Foreign Policy, “Kushner, Mohammed bin Salman, and Benjamin Netanyahu Are Up to Something”, 7 Nov 2017:
It looks a lot like a plan to squeeze Iran.
There seems to be a general consensus in Washington that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s ongoing purge of princes and businessmen — including the wealthiest of them all, the business mogul and Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal — is motivated by his determination to consolidate his power, well before his father, King Salman, passes from the scene. He is in this regard a latter-day Adonijah, who had himself crowned king while his father King David was alive. And, like Adonijah, Mohammed bin Salman has made some very powerful enemies in the process. Unlike that Biblical figure, however, he has his father’s support and has taken care to arrest anyone who might threaten his drive to preeminence.
Jared Kushner, U.S. President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior advisor, was in Riyadh again only recently. It was his third trip to Saudi Arabia since Trump took office. He again met with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, with whom he appears to have established a close personal relationship. It should therefore come as no surprise that Trump, who shares the young crown prince’s antipathy toward Iran, has commented favorably on the recent developments in Riyadh.

The New Arab, “China to deploy ‘Night Tigers’ to Syria in support of Assad’s forces”, 29 Nov 2017:
China will deploy troops to Syria in support of President Bashar al-Assad’s forces, as the East Asian country becomes increasingly concerned about the presence of Islamic militants in its far western region of Xinjiang.
The Chinese Ministry of Defence intends to send troops from its Special Operations Forces to Syria in support of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime
The Chinese Defence Ministry intends to send two units known as the “Tigers of Siberia” and the “Night Tigers” from the Special Operations Forces to aid regime troops against militant factions, New Khaleej reported, citing informed sources.
Some 5,000 ethnic Uighurs from China’s violence-prone region of Xinjiang are fighting in various militant groups in Syria, the Syrian ambassador to China said earlier this year.
Chinese state media has blamed violence in Xinjiang on extremists who were trained in Syria.
Hundreds of people have been killed in Xinjiang in the past few years, most in unrest between Uighurs and ethnic majority Han Chinese. The government blames the unrest on Islamist militants who want a separate state called East Turkestan.
Uighurs themselves complain of discrimination and say their traditional and religious way of life is being eroded by Chinese domestic policy and an influx of settlers from elsewhere in China.
China has said that “East Turkestan terrorist forces” had posed several threats against the government.
Assad has previously praised “crucial cooperation” between Syria and Chinese intelligence against Uighur militants, adding ties with China were “on the rise”.
Chinese military personnel have been on the ground in Syria since at least last year, training Syrian forces to use China-made weapons.
China has also joined Russia in blocking resolutions critical of the regime at the United Nations Security Council, as one of the five vetoing powers on the panel.
The very last line of this article is inarticulate in the sense that China has not “joined” Russia in a partnership of sorts; but is rather acting in its own interests in vetoing the UN Security Council resolution; a veto which happens to coincide with Russia’s veto of UN Security Council resolutions critical of al-Assad.

Ann Marie Waters:
How it feels to me is that the walls are closing-in, and the walls are closing-in more every day. You see it all the time: There was a girl, a woman in Sweden, recently, and she was raped by Syrian migrants in her own flat. Now, the evidence was all there, her body was black and blue, there was DNA, there was semen, there was all the rest of it. And the prosecution, the police told her that there wasn’t enough evidence for a prosecution, and she killed herself.
Now, we have seen this happen up in Sunderland, with Justice for Chelsea, again, a massive load of evidence, but no prosecutions brought. So, they are closing in, they are closing-in and we are being told that black is white. We have all this evidence and we’re being told there’s no evidence. We have all these migrant rapes and we’re being told there’s no migrant rapes. We have what happened in Cologne; and the next day we were told that it has nothing to do with migrants, even though migrants had committed it.
We are essentially living in Orwell’s 1984, where we are seeing something with our own eyes and we’re told it’s not happening. And if we identify it and we dare to speak it, then we are shunned. We have people who are threatened with loss of their livelihood. A friend of mine, Annie the Greek, who some of you who follow me on Twitter might know, has lost her job. She lost her job in the NHS because she refused to apologize for her political opinion.
Now we’re in a situation, now take this in, take this in. In the last… I remember twenty years ago, it wasn’t like this, it wasn’t like this; ten years ago, it wasn’t like this; but take it in - we are now at risk of losing our jobs if we say the wrong thing. We are at risk of having our venues closed if we say the wrong thing. We are at risk of going to prison, quite frankly, if we say the wrong thing. That’s the situation we’re in. It is deathly serious. it really is. And no amount of calling me a far-right fascist is going to change the reality.

New Observer, “Netanyahu: “It Is Time to Deport Africans,” 20 Nov 2017:
The time has come to “increase the pace of deporting Africans” from Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced, confirming that all 40,000 blacks who invaded that country pretending to be refugees will be forcibly deported from the Jewish ethnostate.
As reported in the Jerusalem Post, Netanyahu was addressing the weekly Israeli cabinet meeting on Sunday November 19, as it unanimously passed the law closing down the Holot concentration camp in southern Israel and drawing up plans to deport all the Africans illegally resident in that country.
Netanyahu said he has a “three-pronged policy” to get rid of the Africans, with the current focus being to” encourage most of them to self-deport to a third country,” which the Jerusalem Post claims is Rwanda, but other reports have identified as Uganda.
Netanyahu said that the state had already carried out the first two prongs of its strategy: stopping the flow of new infiltrators by building a wall and through legislation, as well as getting more than 20,000 to “leave” through the voluntary deportation program.
The third stage—that of forcible deportations—he said, “can be carried out thanks to an international agreement which I obtained which allows us to deport the 40,000 remaining infiltrators against their will.”
“This is very important. This will allow us to empty the Holot Detention Center in the future and to redirect portions of the large resources we are using there,” from guarding the infiltrators “to other needs of the state.”
In August, the Israeli High Court of Justice ruled that if the state managed to get a third country to accept the infiltrators and passed a new law to exploit such a deal, then deportation against the invaders’ will could become legal.
The decision to forcibly deport all African invaders from Israel will not be widely reported in the Jewish lobby-controlled media directed at the gentile West, for fear of exposing the Israel-supporting Jewish lobby’s hypocrisy for demanding that white countries take in as many fake refugees as possible.
New Observer, “Israel Pays Rwanda $5K Per African Expellee”, 22 Nov 2017:
Rwanda will be paid $5,000 by the Israeli government for each African infiltrator expelled from the Jewish ethnostate as part of the Jewish plan to keep Israel racially pure and ethnically Jewish, it has emerged as details of the mass expulsion plan become available through the Hebrew-language media.
According to a report on Israel’s Channel 10 news service, the Israeli government will give each African who “voluntarily leaves” a bonus of $3,500—with the alternative of being thrown in prison before being forcibly deported.

Essence, “Black Twitter Wants An Invite To Prince Harry And Meghan Markle’s Royal Wedding”, 27 Nov 2017:
Thanksgiving holiday weekend is over, but Black Twitter is still feeling thankful for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s surprise engagement news.
Monday morning, Kensington Palace announced that the Royal and Suits actress will marry in the spring of 2018. To say that the Twitter timeline was lit would be an understatement.
From general excitement over the news to plans on how we’d collectively attend the wedding (should our invites not get lost in the mail), there’s no stopping the Black Twitter celebrations.
Jasmyn Lawson@JasmynBeKnowing:
Meghan does pass and there are conversations we can have about that, but the reality is she is biological a Black woman who was raised by a Black woman. No one can take that away from her. So Imma celebrate.
Are you as excited for Prince Harry and Meghan’s nuptials as we are?
GirlTyler@sheistyler:
We got us a Black princess ya’ll. You really can’t tell me a damn thing for the rest of the day because it won’t matter. Shout out to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Their wedding will be my Super Bowl.
Prince Harry’s future mother-in-law is a black woman with dreadlocks. There are no words for this kind of joy.

People from outside the United States frequently take a cavalier attitude toward the problem of blacks being imposed upon Whites (and others). They are not able to appreciate that even where you are able to escape temporarily in physical terms, you are still subject to the same rule structures. They are not able to appreciate its one-way reverse discrimination on behalf of a people who you should be able to discriminate against (blacks) for your safety and well being. They get caught up in (((media portrayals))) of your supposed responsibility to compensate for historical discrimination. They tend to add, “well, if you don’t like blacks, you can just move to another place in The US.” They are ignoring the fact discrimination, freedom of association and movement works one way - on behalf of blacks: absent the capacity to discriminate, i.e. with the anti-freedom from association rule structures of “The Civil Rights Act”, its reverse discriminatory provisions of The Consent Decrees and Fair Housing Act will combine with the base bio-power of blacks, their hyper-assertiveness and prolific birthrates to put them everywhere - there is no sufficient White flight. And even where one can physically escape to some White enclave for a while, these right wing and YKW rule-structures and the (((media))) remain looming to leave you no recourse and no peace, ultimately, from the imposition of blacks.
New Observer, “Teachers Flee PA’s Nonwhite Schools”, 21 Nov 2017:
Around 50 teachers have resigned in the last three months from schools in the Harrisburg, PA, school district, after being forced to flee massed group violence from “students” in the 97 percent nonwhite schools—a portend of what will happen as whites are ethnically cleansed from towns and cities across the country.
According to a report in the Philadelphia CBS Local—which of course ignores the school district’s racial make-up—the “teachers in Pennsylvania’s capital city are asking for support after a series of violent altercations with students has led to multiple resignations.”
Quoting the Harrisburg Education Association President Jody Barksdale, the report says that at least 45 teachers have resigned since July and October, and “more have resigned since then.”
Speaking at a school board meeting on Monday evening this week, first-grade teacher Amanda Sheaffer said she “had been hit and kicked by her students.”
According to the 2010 Census—which is already nearly seven years old—Harrisburg’s white population had dwindled to 30.65 percent, with blacks making up 52.4 percent, Hispanics 18 percent, and others the rest.
However, the school demographic is far more revealing about the ethnic cleansing taking place in that state’s capital.
According to the official “Harrisburg School District, 2012 – 2013 District Profile” (which is also four years old), there are a total of 6,311 students at Elementary, Secondary, and High School level in that district.
The breakdown by “Race/Ethnicity,” the statistics continue, are as follows:
“African American 64.09%
“Hispanic 26.27%
“Caucasian 3.45%
“Asian 5.36%
“Multi-Racial/Other 0.78%
“American Indian 0.05%”
Even given that “Caucasian” could mean (such as North African, or Arab—or white), it is thus fair to assume that the actual white element of the school population is around three percent.
The official statistics reveal further that there are students from 23 countries enrolled in the district’s schools, and that they speak “over 18” languages.
Significantly, the official statistics reveal that the “Adequate Yearly Progress” (AYP—a measurement defined by the United States federal No Child Left Behind Act that allows the U.S. Department of Education to determine how every public school and school district in the country is performing academically) of the Harrisburg school district is sub-standard.
According to the official “Assessment Data: District 2011-12 AYP Status,” report, overall the Harrisburg School district has an AYP status of 35 percent in mathematics, 34 percent in reading, 23 percent in science, and 41 percent in writing.
Finally, the official statistics reveal that 57 percent of all the employees in the Harrisburg School District are “Caucasian,” 36 percent are “African American,” 5 percent are Hispanic, and one percent are Asian and “Multiracial/Other.”
The collapse of Harrisburg School District—a decline mirrored in other cities across America after whites had been ethnically cleansed out of those regions—is the latest clear indication of what will happen unless the displacement of white people is not only halted, but reversed.
