The legislation proceeded on Saturday to the Democratic-majority Senate, which passed a similar measure more than two months ago. AL JAZEERA
The U. S. vetoed an attempt to grant full United Nations membership to the Palestinian state. The resolution had wide support from many other members, with 12 in favor and 3 against. The resolution would have suggested the full General Assembly approve Palestine, who would become the 194th full member of the UN. 140 other countries have already recognized the state of Palestine, essentially guaranteeing the resolution would have passed had the United States not vetoed the resolution.

The Intercept indicates that the Biden White House is quietly calling on UN Security Council nations to reject the Palestinian Authority's application to become a full member of the international body. Now, doing so would mean that the UN would recognize Palestine as a state, something that Biden claims he's in favor of, but apparently not really. So, according to The Intercept, the United States is lobbying nations to reject such membership, hoping to avoid an overt veto by Washington. TYT
Benjamin Freedman claimed a conspiracy among powerful Zionists in the banking and financial elite to undermine Germany during World War I. He also claimed that a group of Zionists offered to embroil the United States in World War I on the Allied side in return for British support for a Jewish Homeland in Palestine. He claimed support was offered in the form of the Balfour Declaration issued by the British Government to the head of the British Jewish Community Lord Rothschild. He claimed that he was there and "ought to know". Claims of Jewish control of newspapers Freedman also claimed that all the newspapers at the time were owned by Jews. He also claimed that their newspapers were pro-German before the war and that after the alleged deal was struck between the Zionists and the British that these newspapers became anti-German. a 1954 letter from Freedman to David Goldstein, a Jewish convert to Catholicism and an exponent of the idea that Christianity fulfilled Judaism. The text expounds the notion that most people now identified as Jews are the descendants of Khazars, a Turkic people of Central Asia who converted to JudaisM. IMAANUN

Marvin Fant presents Fred Price: Dr. Price explains the travesty that America has paid out reparations to many ethnicities, most notably the Japanese after WW2 with $20.000 per person, but America balks at payment for 400 years of slavery, free labor, and inhumane treatment, imposed upon its Black Americans.

The Democratic Republic of Congo is rich across the board in most natural minerals and gems. Lying beneath the ground is nearly $24trillion worth of natural resources simply just waiting there to be extracted successfully. Doing that would transform the DRC into not only the richest nation in Africa, but one of the richest nations in the world; but instead the DRC ranks as the seventh lowest GDP per capita in the world, and the reason for that is colonialism.

One of the most fundamental and far-reaching deeds that has been accomplished during the last quarter of a century has been that by which the Negro has been helped to find himself and to learn the secrets of civilization–to learn that there are a few simple, cardinal principles upon which a race must start its upward course, unless it would fail, and its last estate be worse than its first.
On the plantation in Virginia, and even later, Douglass tells how meals were given to the children, very much as dumb animals get theirs. It was a piece of bread here and a scrap of meat there. It was a cup of milk at one time and some potatoes at another.
