Capitalism is killing us?

Some ecological economists, come Herman E. Daly, argue that the external costs related to pollution and the depletion of global resources are not taken into consideration by the gross domestic product, so we cannot know if an increase in GDP is, actually, a gain or a loss.
External costs are enormous and constantly growing. Since the beginning of the world, manufacturing and industrial multinationals, those of the agri-food sector, city ​​sewage systems, and other culprits have made third parties pay the costs of their environmentally harmful activities. There have been numerous reports recently, many of which centered on Monsanto's Roundup, whose main component, glyphosate, it is considered carcinogenic.
An organization aimed at safeguarding public health, l’Environmental Working Group, recently reported that its tests showed the presence of glyphosate in 43 are 45 types of foods for children's breakfast, including muesli, oat flakes and snacks produced by Quake, Kellog e General Mills. LINK.
In Brazil it was discovered that 83% of breast milk contains glyphosate. LINK.
The Institute for the Environment of Monaco ((Munich Environmental Institute) reported that 14 of the best-selling German beer brands contain glyphosate. LINK.
Glyphosate has been found in the urine of Mexican farmers and in Mexican groundwater. LINK.
According to Scientific American, “even the inert compounds in Roundup are capable of killing human cells, especially the embryonic ones, placentals and umbilical cord.” LINK.
A German toxicologist has accused the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment of scientific fraud (Federal Institute for Risk Assessment) and the European Food Safety Authority (European Food Safety Authority – EFSA) for having accepted the thesis of a working group managed by Monsanto on the non-carcinogenicity of glyphosate.

Putin's strategy is finally starting to work?

Putin's strategy is finally starting to work?
Source: Comedonchisciotte
I have already had the opportunity to explain that attitude, typically Christian, of Russian President Vladimir Putin to turn the other cheek to Western provocations is a strategy intended to convince Europe that Russia is reasonable while Washington is not, and that Russia is not a threat to the interests and sovereignty of Europe, while Washington is. Appeasing Israel and withdrawing from the Iranian multinational nuclear non-proliferation agreement, American President Donald Trump may have contributed to the success of Putin's strategy.
The three largest European vassal states of Washington, Great Britain, France and Germany opposed Trump's unilateral action. Trump believes that the multinational treaty depends only on Washington. If Washington were to renounce the agreement, this would represent the end of the agreement itself. The will of the other signatories does not matter. Consequentially, Trump wants to reintroduce pre-existing sanctions on trade with Iran and impose additional ones, new sanctions. If Great Britain, France and Germany continued to honor the commercial contracts stipulated with Iran, then Washington would also sanction its own vassal states and ban English companies, French and German to operate in the United States. Washington obviously believes that the profits that Europeans have in the United States exceed those that can be obtained in Iran and thinks that [the Europeans] they will adapt to Washington's decisions, as well as, from vassal states, they have already done so in the past.

Paul Craig Roberts – World War III is approaching
by

http://vocidallestero.it/ di Paul Craig Roberts (FORMER US GOVERNMENT MEMBER OF DONALD REAGAN)

In a recent article Paul Craig Roberts returns to talk about World War III, accusing Russia of being too cowardly towards aggressive US policy: in the desire to be recognized as part of the West, According to Roberts, Russia never gets the job done, but it always leaves a window open to the USA, hoping to curry favor with them, while effectively giving Washington another round to prevail in the conflict that Washington has started. This is what happened in Syria, where the war risks rekindling, and in Ukraine. And in the meantime, the escalation of propaganda continues in the West: not a day goes by without Russia being accused of cyber-attacks, interference in the elections of Western countries, even subversion of democracy. And with the Skripal case a new leap in quality has been made, coming close to accusing her of state terrorism. In short, what seems like a preparation by Western public opinion for the Third World War that Roberts fears.
Of Paul Craig Roberts, 13 March 2018
“In a nuclear conflict, the 'collateral damage' would be the end of all humanity” – Fidel Castro
The Russians, eager to show the West how friendly they are, they let Washington get a foot in the door in Syria, and Washington is using it to restart the war. Russian failure to finish the job has left Washington as foreign mercenaries, whom the American paid press passes off as "freedom fighters", in the Syrian enclave. For the war to start again, Washington must find a way to help its mercenaries.

The Trump regime has found it, or so he thinks, his justification for returning to the Obama regime's false accusation of Syria's use of chemical weapons. This lie, invented from scratch by the Obama regime, was silenced by Russia's intervention, who assured that there were no Syrian chemical weapons. Indeed, if memory serves us, Russia handed over chemical weapons to the US to be destroyed. There is little doubt that Washington still has them and will use some of them, with their Syrian markings, in what appears to be an imminent false flag attack for which Assad may be blamed. In other words, Washington will create a 'critical moment', he will blame Assad and Putin, and – with or without the authorization of Congress – the American intervention will begin on behalf of its mercenaries.
If we can believe James Mattis, the retired US Marine general who is Secretary of Defense, Syria, a country without chemical weapons and which does not need them in its combing operations against Washington's mercenaries, is using chlorine gas “against his own people”, exactly the same phrase used by the Obama regime when it attempted to orchestrate a justification for the attack in Syria. Mattis said he is receiving reports of Assad's use of chlorine gas, while at the same time claiming that there is no evidence of the use of gas, even less by the Syrian army.
The Secretary of Defense actually accused Syria of “targeting hospitals” with chlorine gas, although he admits there is no evidence. Mattis went on to accuse Russia of complicity in the killing of civilians, a feat at which the US excels. Read More
