The next 2 weeks...

The U.S. drone attacks killing innocent civilians in Pakistan without prior notice to the leaders in Pakistan are what have reportedly soured Pakistan's alliance with the U.S. Hamid Gul has stated many times that Pakistan has been a reliable ally of the U.S. and the U.S. has repeatedly taken advantage of that friendship/alliance.
the fact that China and Pakistan have a mutual interest in suppressing India is well known, and one of the largest issues is the control of water, as I understand from interviews
And Russia, in fact, most countries have used false flag terror on their populations, so while that is a hallmark of them, it is also a hallmark of the U.S.
I would make a terrible spy. And if it is possible, probably an even worse secretary of state than Hillary. And that is saying, in my book, a LOT!
Russia is definitely rising. And Obama is NO match for Putin. Hopefully, there are others in our corner who are!
BTW, the whole thing where Russian women are seeking U.S. husbands, really has been pushed the last decade. I suspect many are in fact involved in espionage. A friend, married one, she spent all her time on the internet. She had been high level executive in Russian car manufacturing company. He was redneck and if I am correct about her, he was totally oblivious to the situation. I was told she returned to Russia after a couple of years. Maybe I'm wrong about my hunch.

Using your analogy of finding truth by following down the tree to the roots. I liken the geopolitical scene as a jungle. Until some major event causes the tree to be uprooted, it is nearly impossible to establish which roots belong to it. Because the jungle floor is a mass of intertwined roots. And even then, in the root ball, lots of roots which do not belong to the 'tree' come up with the root ball in a tornado.

That's not the technique in the tree, when they establish an audience they introduce new branches of the tree.

And if you know how to throw stones in the pond, you can capture the ripples of distortion.

Your business is a crazy business. I find confusion on a much more elementary level. For instance, Webster Griffin Tarpley. He was IN Syria. He has a PhD in history. He praises Putin, condemns Romney and supports Obama, and yet appears to be supporting and praising many of the same outlets you label as 'propaganda'.
And watching him 'spin' over the last couple of years, it has been my opinion that he is an asset of 'the company.' Obama is clearly a company creation. His mother's Rand affiliation with Timothy Geithner's dad as her boss is no longer a secret.
I think, nation states have ALREADY disappeared, the global cabal has ALREADY merged the shadow controllers and intelligence networks via the corporations, and that it all boils down to a massive simultaneous game of musical chairs and 'chicken.'
Or, I could just be fatigued.

Yeah, that damn dam project doesn't have ANYTHING to do with this...no, nope, nadda....look that way, nothing to see near there! Thanks for the reminder.
Anyone who thinks humanity can live in harmony on this plane only has to watch 2 year olds attempting to play together. And throw ONE tootsie roll into the playpen with 3 toddlers.. it isn't gonna be pretty!
And let them get to be 8 or 10 years old and into a fight...the parent steps in... if the parent has any sense, they'll keep eyes in the back of their heads because 10 minutes later the kids will be planning some evil prank on the parent and laughing in unison.
Is there such a thing as sanity? Life truly appears to be insane.

I worked in the above country for infrastructure projects.

have you?
