I suspect the US is about to be offered up as a blood sacrifice.
If Russian and Chinese troops invaded the US tomorrow and killed 20 million people to claim control... the rest of the world would... if not outright cheer, certainly breathe a sigh of relief.
How do think it will shake down? I also think it's about ritual sacrifice on a grand scale, however, what begins in the U.S. could spread globally and potentially, interplanetary..
I don't know... There are so many ways it could be done, from thermonuclear strikes in multiple cities to bioterrorism to blowing Yellowstone.
As for global, you could be right -- this could be the beginning of a global revolution, and not in a good way. We might be about to cycle back through the stone age.
An interesting thought; I personally don't think the "Stone Age" ever existed; we lived alongside "dinosaurs" (dragons) relatively recently. I think we have been in and may still have a shadowy, advanced civilization behind the curtains that runs its experiments on us; everything from religions, cults and movements, to government ideaologies and social customs. I don't see how they could get away with the nuclear thing because it would have to be constrained and people would ask questions, "why is only the U.S. And Russia being targeted?" Anyway, interesting thoughts; good to have other people who can handle the scope of this. Good luck
Up to 20 civilians were killed by U.S. airstrikes in Afghanistan early Saturday morning that hit a hospital in Kunduz.
According to reports, another 37 people have been injured and many more remain unaccounted for.
The hospital is operated by a French affiliate of Doctors Without Borders, Médecins Sans Frontières (MFS), and was the only functioning health facility in the area.
The hospital was hit during an aerial bombardment on Saturday morning in the besieged city of Kunduz, destroying a large portion of the facility. An MSF source told the Guardian that up to 20 Afghan members of staff and patients were killed and dozens more injured. They said the death toll could rise further. Among the killed were nine MSF staff and seven patients from the intensive care unit, including three children.
I was inside my office. Around 2am, the plane started bombing the main building of MSF. It lasted one and a half hours. After 3:30am, I came out from my office and saw all of the hospital was on fire,” said an MSF staff member who wished to remain anonymous. He continued, “We couldn’t save our doctors, our nurses, our cleaners, our friends. They burned inside the hospital. We couldn’t save our brothers and friends.
MSF posted a tweet claiming that U.S., Afghan, and Taliban forces were all aware of the location of the hospital and were assured it would not be targeted. However, even after alerting U.S. forces the hospital was being bombed, the shelling continued for an additional 30 minutes.
The city of Kunduz is the site of a renewed battle between U.S.-backed Afghan security forces and the Taliban. The U.S. government claims the war in Afghanistan is over and that the country is transitioning into a democracy. The truth is that Afghanistan is in just as poor shape as it was before the 2001 overthrow of the Taliban. In fact, some conditions are worse now than they were before the U.S. installed a Western-friendly government.
Last week, we learned U.S. Marines were instructed to allow Afghan security forces and U.S.-backed Afghan militias to molest children. One Marine broke rank to stop a pedophile and was later forced into retirement for not following orders.
And, production of opium — nearly eradicated by the Taliban — is now at record levels under the new regime.
The bombing comes at a critical time for U.S. foreign policy hawks, including President Obama, who in recent days has been criticizing Russia for initiating a bombing campaign of its own in Syria, in support of the Syrian government.
While Russia maintains it is targeting terrorists in Syria, Western media reports flooded the airwaves the day Russia’s bombing started with reports of civilian casualties.
This hospital bombing is sure to complicate the West’s rhetoric against Russian aggression — considering their main talking point is concern over civilian and non-terrorist deaths at the hands of Russia in Syria. As news of the United States’ bombing of this hospital spreads, it leaves little room for criticism of Russian airstrikes.
Corporate media reports were quick to condemn Russian aggression, and rightly so; however, they have been utterly silent regarding U.S. collateral damage in recent months.
While the United States and its allies continue indiscriminate airstrikes in at least seven countries, the U.S.-backed, Saudi-led incursion into Yemen has taken the lives of 500 children since March.
In fact, the U.S. War on Terror has taken the lives of an estimated four million Muslims since 2001, many of whom were women and children.
It’s long past time for the U.S. public and media to oppose the innocent killing of civilians, whether the crimes are committed by Russia or their own government.

I have to wonder whether this is a botched operation to blame the Russians.

Good point. Something seems really off about this.
It's almost as if they're trying to make the US look bad at this point.

I think this was all planned.

The timing is just extraordinary, I have to say. What a time to be alive...

Unreal.

Does the timing of this latest hospital "blunder" seem odd?
