There are a few concerns that I’d like to mention for the people that follow my channel and my blog. The first is that not that long ago all of my videos on Dailymotion were deleted. That’s hundreds of videos that I managed to upload over several years. I’m almost certain that this was done by the people that run Dailymotion in order to censor me. The reason why I think so is because this happened at the same time and on all three of my channels on Dailymotion. Even the videos on my smallest channel that I hardly ever used got deleted. It’s worth pointing out that all three of my channels featured a link to my VK blog. It wouldn’t be surprising for me to know that the people that run Dailymotion read my blog. Can it be a coincidence that all of my videos were deleted right after I made a post on my blog about censorship on video-sharing websites such as Dailymotion? I think not. The thing about websites such as Dailymotion, YouTube, or IMDb is that the people that own them and run them keep track of what people post. They listen to and read everything that people say and write. I’ve known this for years because I’ve been using the websites for years. So, the act by Dailymotion to censor me came as no big surprise to me. I’ve always known that Dailymotion is a crooked website that’s involved in censorship. But having several hundred of my videos get deleted all of a sudden still isn’t a pleasant thing. In one of my blog posts, I pointed out that the video-sharing website that has given me the most trouble over the years is YouTube. I’ve had many problems on YouTube because of copyright claims and censorship. Well, now I can say that the spot occupied by YouTube has been taken by Dailymotion. At least YouTube hasn’t outright deleted all of my videos. By the way, this isn’t the first time that something like this has happened to me. The first video-sharing website that deleted all of my videos because of political reasons was Metacafe. Therefore, it seems that internet censorship in Western countries is in full swing, and it has existed for at least a decade already.

Another concern that I can mention is that when I post links on my blog to other websites this doesn’t mean that I support everything on those websites. This just means that the chosen article has some good information. I think that I made a mistake many months ago when I posted links to a few websites that are run by people that I now call… psychotic anti-Semites. Back then, I didn’t realize that these people are… crazy. These are people who believe that Jews are responsible for every problem in society and that there’s a communist behind every corner and under every bed. Funnily enough, some of them claim to be Christians, and they say that what’s needed is a firm establishment of Christianity again. Well, I don’t think that Jesus Christ would have approved of their behavior. I can just imagine Jesus sitting and telling his followers that they should practice hatred and irrationality, and him also arguing in favor of low taxes and unquestioning servitude to the rich and powerful. Obviously, these right-wingers and nationalists are irrational and badly educated. I noticed that they’re not interested in history, or in the sciences, or in other societies. What seems to matter to them is coming up with irrational conspiracy theories and using their bigotry and limited knowledge to attack certain groups or objects that they choose to blame for all of the ills in society. I think that I wouldn’t want to be in the same room with these lunatics. But such people, and similar minded people, have been used by American imperialism. They also feel emboldened by all of the anti-leftist propaganda coming out of Western states. With American aid, such people have been brought to power in countries around the world, most recently in Ukraine. And, naturally, they have no respect for democracy, and they have no problem with American imperialism. Anyway, I just wanted to point this out because such people do read my blog and reply to my posts. Well, they can make as many nasty replies as they want, but I’m here to tell them that I don’t read their blogs or websites, and it was probably a mistake for me to post links to their websites in the past. One thing about me is that I believe that other people should have the right to speak and voice their opinions. Maybe I’m like this because I grew up in Canada. But there’s a limit to the craziness and the lying that even I can tolerate. Therefore, they can yell all they want about “the Jews”, or “Bolshevism”, or some “world communist government”. This doesn’t mean that I’m listening. There is no world government. There’s Anglo-American capitalist imperialism and hegemony. This is why the USA has so many military bases around the world. And what these lunatics call communism isn’t communism. It’s capitalism. They should at least pick up and read a dictionary once in a while.

Well, it’s not surprising that Avengers: Infinity War is going to become one of the biggest box office successes in cinema history. This film has been out for less than a week and already pretty much everyone who goes to the cinema has seen it, except for me. I haven’t seen it yet because I don’t get the urge to do what everyone else is doing. So, I’ll probably wait until I can borrow it from some library. I actually like the films that Marvel makes, but I don’t jump up and down every time one of those films is released. My favorite MCU films are Thor (2011), Ant-Man (2015), Iron Man (2008), The Incredible Hulk (2008), Thor: The Dark World (2013), Doctor Strange (2016), Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), and Thor: Ragnarok (2017). Pretty much all the Marvel films are enjoyable, but the ones that I’ve listed are my favorites. The recently released Black Panther isn’t one of my favorites. It’s not a bad film by any means. It’s good. It’s more serious that the usual Marvel flick. It’s just that only a few characters in the film appeal to me. The film also doesn’t quite have the emotional weight that it should have. When it comes to the characters, it lacks the appeal of Thor or of Iron Man, for example. Since Marvel films contain some Anglo-American propaganda, it can also be interesting to see them because of what they’re about. Some of the information in these films actually surprised me. For example, in Captain America: The First Avenger, the fictional terrorist organization Hydra uses some odd weapons and technology. Steve Rogers (Captain America) doesn’t fight against regular German troops in the film but against Hydra troops armed with extraordinary weapons. Such weapons are usually the stuff of science-fiction, but I later learned that the Nazis did actually have some of those extraordinary weapons. Some of this technology and weaponry wasn’t intended for mass production and some of it wasn’t fully developed when Nazi Germany was defeated. So, for example, the Germans did have plans to create the Amerikabomber, which was a long-range strategic bomber for the Luftwaffe that would be capable of striking the USA from Germany. In the film, the Red Skull attempts to use a similar bomber to strike the USA. At one time, Adolf Hitler considered the creation a giant tank not so different from the one that the Red Skull uses in the film. So, if the Germans hadn’t been defeated in World War II, such “miracle weapons” would have become a reality already in the 1940s or the 1950s. In the sequel, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, we find out that some members of Hydra were recruited by the American espionage agency S.H.I.E.L.D after World War II. Something similar happened in real life too because the Americans did bring German and other European scientists, psychiatrists, and agents to the United States after World War II. Some of these people, like Ukrainian nationalists, were so-called war criminals because they were engaged in mass killings in Europe.

When it comes to what I’ve been reading lately, I can recommend Paul Kennedy’s book ‘The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers’ (1987). It’s a history book with some good information that was recommended by the historian Andrei Fursov. I finally finished listening to The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoyevsky a few months ago. It’s a thick book, and I had to listen to it for about 25 hours. I’m now listening to the Complete Stories of Sherlock Holmes (in 3 volumes) by Arthur Conan Doyle. The narration is by Charlton Griffin, and I’ve got to say that I’m really enjoying listening to these releases. It’s not only that the narration is very good, it’s that I haven’t yet read any of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Therefore, this is something that’s new for me. Since Doyle was a Mason and a member of the British establishment, his novels contain some interesting information about British intentions in the second half of the 19th century. Another book that I’m almost finished listening to is Dispatches by Michael Herr. Dispatches was one of the first pieces of American literature that portrayed the experiences of soldiers in the Vietnam War for American readers. Herr’s book is surprisingly funny at times, though he mostly describes the behavior of American soldiers and their actions. Carl Sagan’s The Dragons Of Eden, which is another book that Fursov recommended, is an interesting read. I got The Dragons Of Eden right after I’ve read Sagan’s well-known 1985 novel Contact, which is one of the more memorable hard science fiction novels that I’ve read. I personally prefer to read books on my tablet, by using the app Play Books. Other times, when I feel like it, I buy books at second hand book stores. But, for the most part, I read books on Play Books or I listen to them on the Audible app.

By the way, here’s a good list of some of the best Western science fiction novels of the 1950s (titled The Defining Science Fiction Books of the 1950s):

The Defining Science Fiction Books of the 1950s

This American, James Harris, conveniently listed novels from the 1950s to the 1990s. I’ve found other good lists on the internet, but I mostly look at Harris’s lists when I’m thinking about what I should read next. Some of the novels that I’ve already read are Inherit The Stars (1977), which is a personal favorite, Blood Music (1985), The Visitors (1980), The Robots Of Dawn (1983), Titan (1979), Beyond The Blue Event Horizon (1977), Mission Of Gravity (1954), The Godwhale (1974), Triton (1976), In The Ocean Of Night (1977), Ender’s Game (1985), and Dune (1965). When it comes to Dune by Frank Herbert, I’d recommend getting the unabridged audiobook narrated by Scott Brick and Orlagh Cassidy, among others. I’m not at all a fan of Frank Herbert’s work, and his science fiction novels aren’t among my favorites, but the audiobook is a compelling listen that includes music and sound effects. Although I’m still reading the manga Berserk by Kentaro Miura (I’m now reading the 16th volume), I’ve finished reading Battle Angel Alita by Yukito Kishiro a few months ago. I’ve already read famous manga like Rurouni Kenshin, Death Note, Maison Ikkoku, Akira, Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind, and Fullmetal Alchemist, but Battle Angel Alita is hard to get because it has been out of print for years. Therefore, you can read it only on the internet or on an app for now. I’ve thought about reading it for several years, way before I knew that there was talk of adapting it into a film. Sure, the artwork is the biggest draw, but there’s also a pretty good story that includes the theme of social control. Battle Angel Alita: Last Order is the continuation of the story that features more of Kishiro’s fantastic artwork.

Then: “If Russia and the Communists should win the next world war, many American men would be sterilized. In case the Communists should conquer, our women would be helpless beneath the boots of the Asiatic Russians.”

Now: Putin falsely accused of persecuting gay people. Connect the dots. -Oh, btw., American men already are sterilized. The US mainstream media has saved Putin the trouble. -Ah, one more thing, they’re lobotomized and pretty stupid as well, “dumb, stupid animals”. Kissinger was right. No, not just the soldiers, all of ’em. Their womenfolk too. Next thing you’ll know is they’ll obediently start responding to the neo-cons’ evil hiss for war against Russia. ♫ “That’ll Be The Day“…

The purpose of the ongoing propaganda campaign is to manufacture a new pro-war narrative.

Since Crimea voted last Sunday to secede from Ukraine and rejoin Russia, US officials and the American media have mounted a deafening propaganda campaign, posturing as defenders of world peace, the rights of small nations and international law in opposition to Russia. In this campaign, no lie told to justify support for the Ukrainian regime that emerged from last month’s fascist-led coup is too absurd.

As he announced new sanctions against Russia yesterday, President Obama denounced Russia’s annexation of Crimea. “Basic principles between governments in the world must be upheld in the 21st century,” Obama intoned, such as “the notion that nations do not redraw borders simply because they are larger or more powerful.”

Writing along similar lines, the Washington Post editorialized that “Mr. Putin’s claim that Russia should have a say in the political orientation of its neighbors, and whether they join alliances such as the European Union or NATO, is entirely unacceptable.”

Who is supposed to believe this nonsense? The governing principle of US foreign policy is that it has an unchallengeable right to determine the political orientation of its unfortunate “neighbors” in the Western hemisphere and that of every other country in the world.

As far back as the formulation of the Monroe Doctrine in 1823, the United States claimed the entire Western hemisphere as its sphere of influence, dictating what relations it could have with European powers.

A comprehensive history of blood-soaked US interventions in the internal affairs of the countries of South America, Central America, Mexico and the Caribbean would require an encyclopedic work comprising dozens of volumes. A partial list of the depredations of US imperialism against its neighbors to the south would include the incursions into Mexico between 1914 and 1917, the military occupations of Haiti and Nicaragua, the overthrow of the Arbenz government in Guatemala in 1954, the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961 and the countless CIA assassination plots against Castro, and the 1973 overthrow of the Allende regime in Chile.

Justifying Washington’s support for the overthrow of the Chilean regime and the murder of President Salvador Allende, then-Secretary of State Henry Kissinger cynically remarked:

“I don’t see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its own people. The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves.”

But why preoccupy ourselves with “ancient history?” Within the last 31 years, the United States has invaded and deposed the governments of Grenada, Panama and Haiti. It has organized bloody insurgency and counter-insurgency operations in Nicaragua, El Salvador and Guatemala. Washington backed the 2009 overthrow of the legally-elected government in Honduras. And since 2002, the United States has been engaged in non-stop efforts (including one failed coup d’état) to over throw the government in Venezuela.

The Obama administration and the Merkel government in Germany could hardly have been surprised that Russia reacted to the installation of a hostile Western puppet regime on its borders. And while they may have been somewhat taken aback by the speed with which Putin acted to assert control over Crimea, they do not view the most recent developments as entirely negative.

As recent statements by US and European leaders and comments by influential pundits make clear, Putin’s defensive actions provide an opportunity to re-brand and re-legitimize a militaristic agenda that has lost credibility with the broad mass of the population.

The impact of the 9/11 attacks and the “war on terror” has faded, and the lies about weapons of mass destruction used to launch the Iraq invasion have discredited war in the working class. The imperialist powers were forced to recognize that they could not proceed with the bombing of Syria last September, largely due to popular disaffection with war.

Faced with broad anti-war sentiment in the working class and the limitations this imposes on their foreign policy, imperialist strategists and their media operatives are seeking to exploit the crisis they provoked in Ukraine to shift public opinion.

This was the subject of Washington Post columnist E. J. Dionne’s commentary on Wednesday, entitled, “Can Putin’s power grab in Crimea bring us together?” In this piece, Dionne wonders how a “war-weary public can be awakened and rallied.” He bemoans statistics showing that only 29 percent of the American population opposes, and 56 percent supports, the view that the United States should not get “too involved” in Ukraine. He writes:

“We must confront Putin, but this will require a foreign policy consensus that has vanished. A new one will have to be based on principles that predate the Iraq engagement and involve a more measured use of US power. Thus the final paradox: Putin has given Obama the opportunity to begin rebuilding this consensus—if the president decides to try, and if his critics are willing to help him do it.”

So the purpose of the ongoing propaganda campaign is to manufacture a new pro-war narrative, as if that is all that is necessary to erase the lies told about Iraq and Afghanistan from public memory.

ADOLF Hitler’s shocking Nazi plans for Russia would have left millions dead and Moscow completely levelled, it can be revealed.

Nazi war planners quite literally planned world domination when Hitler’s forces marched out in all directions from Germany.

Soviet Union territories were invaded in Operation Barbarossa by nearly four million Nazi soldiers.

This was Hitler’s greatest mistake, opening a war on a second front meant the Nazis couldn’t conquer Britain.

Adolf was confident however and shocking plans were drawn up for the future of Nazi-occupied Russia.

Daily Star Online can now reveal Nazi-Russia as Vladimir Putin celebrates the 73rd anniversary of the Soviet Union’s defeat of the Reich.

Hitler’s big plan was to crush the spirit of anyone who dared resist the Nazi war machine.

Adolf planned to “level” Moscow, according to the diary of Nazi general Franz Hadler.

Nazi war planners believed the utter destruction of Russia’s capital would break any hope of resistance by the Soviets.

And once the city of four million people had been annihilated, Hitler wanted to flood the ruins.

Nazi plans reveal Moscow would have become a huge artificial lake, a monument to Hitler’s victory and the centrepiece of occupied Russia.

Sluice gates around the city on the Volga-Moscow Canal would have been opened and water would have flowed over the rubble of the Kremlin and Red Square.

SS officer Otto Skorzeny was tasked to draw up plans to capture the nearby dams to create Hitler’s lake during World War 2.

Hitler’s desire to utterly destroy Russia was driven by his racist ideas – considering the people who lived in the Soviet Union inferior to the Aryans.

Nazi-occupied Russia would have seen millions of people executed or enslaved – including Russians, Ukrainians and any other Slavs.

Cities of Kiev and Leningrad were also earmarked for total destruction by the Nazi war machine.

Hitler’s chief-of-staff Halder describes in his diaries how the Fuhrer wanted to “level [the cities] to the ground” in the first offensive against the Soviets.

And then large swathes of western Russia would have been occupied by German settlers once the locals had been exterminated or expelled.

Soviet territory was to be carved up into six different districts by occupying forces – known as Reichskommissariats, and masterminded by Hitler’s foreign minister Alfred Rosenberg.

Russia was to be utterly dissolved as a country – and ruled by six Reichskommissars who would have been answerable only to Hitler.

The planned districts were:

Ostland, made-up of Poland and Belarus
Ukraine, featuring the region of the same name as well as Romania and Crimea
Don-Wolga, based around the Sea of Azov to Rostov
Moskowein, Moscow and its surrounding areas
Kaukasus, southern Russia
Turkestan, covering the top of central Asia.

The establishment of these districts was part of the invasion plan that would have been finalised with the destruction of Moscow in Operation Typhoon.

Nazi forces were eventually driven out of Russia by Soviet troops and the freezing cold of the colossal nations’ Arctic winters.

Epic clashes such as the Battle of Stalingrad finally drove the Nazis back.

And the number of Soviet war dead is recorded as more than 26 million by the Russian government.

As the US entered the war in Europe, Hitler faced a brutal pincer movement from both sides that eventual ended in the capture of Berlin.

Russia marked its victory over the Nazis on Wednesday with a massive parade in Moscow, with Putin showing off his new weapons.

Vlad has made it an annual celebration since 2015, with the initial event featuring troops from other Allied forces.

Daily Star Online previously exclusively revealed Nazi secret documents detailing Hitler’s proposed invasion of Britain.

Lower Lonsdale is a historic waterfront neighbourhood in the city of North Vancouver. Lower Lonsdale runs up Lonsdale Avenue from Lonsdale Quay to Keith Road. Its history is inseparably connected to the lumber and shipbuilding industries on the North Shore of Burrard Inlet, as well as ferry crossings connecting the area to Downtown Vancouver. Lower Lonsdale is currently going through large waterfront renewal processes. The old shipyards are being torn down, making way for new public spaces, condominiums, retail outlets and a hotel.

In 1860 a Catholic Missionary was ordered to build a church on the water front of what is now called St. Pauls Church

Shortly afterwards two men by the name of T. W. Graham and George Scrimgeour secured a pre-emption of 150 acres (0.61 km2), the first on the North Shore of the Burrard Inlet.

They proceeded to build a lumber mill and named it The Pioneer Mills and was the first industrial lumber plant on the Inlet. This consequently initiates an influx of residents.

With the mill facing bankruptcy, an American by the name of Sewell Prescott Moody bought the Mill.

In the 1990s and 2000s, the City of North Vancouver embarked on an ambitious plan to redevelop former industrial lands of Lower Lonsdale. Highrise and lowrise condominium and other multi-family developments were constructed in the area between 3rd Street and south to the waterfront.

During that time, many new restaurants and retailers have located in the stretch of Lonsdale Avenue between 3rd Street and Burrard Inlet. The City also oversaw the construction of the John Braithwaite Community Center, located in the 100 block of 1st Street.

A national maritime museum is proposed for former shipyards site on Esplanade Avenue, pending funding from federal and provincial governments.
