London attack is latest in which vehicles are used as weapon

Associated Press

A body is covered by a sheet outside the Houses of Parliament, London, Wednesday, March 22, 2017. London police say they are treating a gun and knife incident at Britain's Parliament "as a terrorist incident until we know otherwise." The Metropolitan Police says in a statement that the incident is ongoing. It is urging people to stay away from the area. Officials say a man with a knife attacked a police officer at Parliament and was shot by officers. Nearby, witnesses say a vehicle struck several people on the Westminster Bridge.

LONDON (AP) — When an attacker plowed a vehicle into pedestrians on London's Westminster Bridge on Wednesday, it was the latest in a string of incidents in which drivers used their vehicles as weapons.

Some were orchestrated by extremist groups, others by unstable individuals with unclear motives. While no one so far has claimed responsibility for Wednesday's attack in London, radical groups have urged supporters to use any weapons at hand — including cars. The tactic presents a major challenge for security forces around the world.

Donald Trump Jr sparks storm over terror comments made by London Mayor Sadiq Khan

Westminster attack: ‘We won't be cowed by terrorists’ says London Mayor Sadiq Khan Reuters

Donald Trump Jr slammed the mayor of London on Wednesday (22 March) just hours after the deadly terror attack in Westminster that has left at least four dead, including the attacker.

The eldest son of President Donald Trump tweeted: "You have to be kidding me?!: Terror attacks are part of living in big city, says London Mayor Sadiq Khan," along with a link to an article by The Independent from September 2016.

The article, which was written after a bombing in New York City, quotes Khan as saying that terrorist attacks are "part and parcel of living in a big city".

The mayor said that the bombing gave him a "sleepless night" and noted that major cities "have got to be prepared for these sorts of things" to happen when least expected.

"That means being vigilant, having a police force that is in touch with communities, it means the security services being ready, but it also means exchanging ideas and best practice," Khan told the Evening Standard.

Donald Trump Junior has sparked a Twitter storm after seemingly goading the London mayor while the terror attack at Westminster was ongoingTwitter

Pippa Crerar, the Evening Standard journalist who interviewed Khan, defended his remarks in her own Twitter message. "I was journo @SadiqKhan said this to after NYC attack. He was being realistic: cities must be prepared. Failure of l'ship to do otherwise," she wrote.

Trump Jr faced strong criticism from Wes Streeting, the MP for Ilford North, and Channel 4 News correspondent Ciaran Jenkins, The Guardian reported.

"You use a terrorist attack on our city to attack London's Mayor for your own political gain. You're a disgrace," Streeting wrote.

Jenkins tweeted: "Is this helpful @DonaldJTrumpJr? Did you even read the article before goading London's Mayor during a live incident?" He later added, "Headline is based on very first sentence, which if you'd bothered to read it could apply to any major city in the world. Key word: 'threat'."

In his statement following Wednesday's (22 March) attack, Khan said, "Londoners will never be cowed by terrorism."

"I want to reassure all Londoners and all our visitors not to be alarmed. Our city remains one of the safest in the world. London is the greatest city in the world. And we stand together in the face of those who seek to harm us and destroy our way of life. We always have and we always will," the mayor added.

Khan, the first Muslim mayor of London, is a vocal opponent of President Trump, The Hill noted. The mayor has called Trump "ignorant" and asked Prime Minister Theresa May to suspend a planned state visit by the president to the UK.

US flies nuclear-capable B-1B bomber after North Korea's failed missile test

The US flew a nuclear-capable B-1B bomber over the Korean peninsula on Wednesday, 22 March, hours after North Korea's failed missile test. Although it was part of the ongoing US-South Korea joint military exercises, it is seen as a strong warning to the reclusive Kim Jong-un regime.

It is still unclear whether the latest flight of the sophisticated long-range bomber was actually scheduled before the North attempted the test. South Korea's Air Force said the advanced jet performed an immediate deployment and simulation-based bombing drill.

A statement from the forces read: "Through this exercise, the South Korean and US Air Forces demonstrated their strong deterrence against North Korea's nuclear and missile threats."

The B-1B bomber, which later headed to the US' Guam base, was flanked by squadrons of F-15K and two KF-16 fighter jets during the flight, which has been dubbed as a training mission. Two supersonic strategic bombers were deployed in South Korea for the aerial and naval exercises taking place in the region.

Zakharova: "A child is pretty much murdered under the camera lights" - Swedish doctors denounce White Helmets snuff films

© RT
"White Helmets Oscar is a farce" - Maria Zakharova
The White Helmets. The biggest propaganda heist in the six year history of the dirty war against Syria is unravelling. The glamour of an Oscar is not enough to disguise the sordid details of the White Helmet ties to Al Qaeda (Nusra Front in Syria) and various other extremist, atrocity committing groups embedded in Syria by the NATO and Gulf state regimes. No amount of money laundering is going to wash their image clean after the latest series of reports from Swedish Doctors for Human Rights, exposing macabre, medical malpractice and suspected use of drugged or dead children as props in a propaganda campaign to unseat the Syrian government and to destabilize an entire nation & its people.

Part I of the SWEDHR series: WHITE HELMETS: Swedish Doctors Denounce Medical Malpractice and 'Misuse' of Children for Propaganda Purposes

Extract from the article:
"Dr Leif Elinder, a known Swedish medical doctor profile, author and specialist in paediatrics, summarised the following in his reply: [7]

"After examination of the video material, I found that the measures inflicted upon those children, some of them lifeless, are bizarre, non-medical, non-lifesaving, and even counterproductive in terms of life-saving purposes of children".

Further, I received a detailed clinical statement from Dr Lena Oske, a Swedish medical doctor and general practitioner. In her statement, Dr Oske referred to the presumed, adrenaline injection, performed in the White Helmet video (excerpt in the photo above). Her specialist opinion dismisses the procedure conducted in the White Helmet video, as unqualified and incorrect. Furthermore, she describes the earlier assessment of the procedure by a colleague who had exclaimed:

"If not already dead, this injection would have killed the child!"
Part II of the SWEDHR series: WHITE HELMETS: Are Dead Children Being Used as Props for Propaganda Videos?

Extract from the article:
"I think that even from the very brief video, we can see that this child has a reduced level of consciousness: he does not vocalize, does not open his eyes, and his only movements are to turn his head to one side and to open his mouth before he stops breathing altogether. This looks like respiratory depression, rather than injury to the lungs; he appears to be too sleepy to breathe. I think the most likely diagnosis is a drug overdose causing reduced level of consciousness and respiratory depression. Opiates are the most likely class of drug to cause this. Chlorine causes acute inhalation injury, but does not (in any of the sources I have read) cause reduced level of consciousness: the victim struggles to breathe until the end."
Maria Zakharova Press Briefing

Director of the Information and Press Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation (the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation), Maria Zakharova publicly exposed the White Helmets once more, in yesterday's press briefing.

Basing her statement upon the shocking evidence provided by the SWEDHR investigation into the alleged Sarmin chlorine gas attacks of March 2015, Zakharova slammed the propaganda role of this multi-million-dollar-funded, largely made-in-Britain, fraudulent, terrorist supporting organisation. She also emphasised the abhorrence of the suspected use of dying or already dead/drugged children as props in a manipulated cameo scene, designed to elicit sympathy for a No Fly Zone in Syria.

WATCH ~

Comment: This is deplorable, the lowest of the low. These 'humanitarians'-by-day and terrorists-by-night are committing unspeakable acts on children for use in their snuff films that win an Oscar in the US. Can the West become any more bizarre and twisted than it is today?

USA

Obama Kills on Tuesdays: Interview with Croatian author Vedrana Rudan

Under Obama, ten times more people were killed by US drones than under the Bush administrations. So far, under Trump, drone strikes have increased even further.

The US is a rogue state from the point of view of millions of people around the world who suffer death and destruction in the guise of American 'freedom and democracy'. Behind the ruse is greed and a lust for power. Will the ordinary people of world finally see the simple truth behind the noble-sounding rhetoric?

In this 10 minute clip from the TV interview conducted a few years ago, Croatian author Vedrana Rudan speaks about the truth behind the West's war on terrorism and the hypocrisy that defines it.
