1…………> Law Of The Jungle: Trump’s Tariffs

 

A trade war is now a reality, French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire has warned as G20 ministers gather for a summit in Argentina, describing the current US trade policy of imposing unilateral tariffs is based on “the law of the jungle”, contradicting US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin who defended the tariffs and urged the EU and China to open their markets to allow free competition.

“World trade cannot base itself on the law of the jungle and the unilateral increase of tariffs is the law of the jungle,” Mr. Le Maire told AFP news agency.

“The law of the jungle, the law of the fittest, this cannot be the future of global trade relations.

“The law of the jungle will only turn out losers, it will weaken growth, threaten the most fragile countries and have disastrous political consequences,” Mr. Le Maire said.

3…………> LA Movie Theater: A Bygone Era

 

Silent witnesses of a bygone era, LA Million Dollar, State, United Artists, Orpheum  and many other theaters  rose to fame during the golden era of Hollywood, incorporating a lavish architecture, rich tapestry and the best acoustics of the time when the world was connected only by the voice of a radio from distant places across oceans and continents.

Left behind by the exponential explosion of computer technology, they make us wonder if our world one day may also become redundant, useless and boring, a victim of yet another toy of the human mind in search of the ways of the creator.

4…………> Genetic Diseases Detection: Israel

 

A new discovery by Israeli researchers about the inner structure of cells will likely help detect genetic diseases, according to a study of the Weizmann Institute of Science that has discovered that the organelles structures inside the living cells are connected by tiny strips, not separated from each other as previously thought.

The discovery can significantly contribute to detecting the causes of serious genetic diseases and pave the way for finding appropriate treatments, said the report.

5…………> Bubbling War: Iran vs Kurds

 

At least 10 members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard’s Basij forces were killed overnight in an attack on a military post along the Iraqi border, the latest deadly clash in a region where armed Kurdish groups seeking an independent Kurdistan are active.

1…………> Applied Global Warming: Japan Floods

 

At least 51 people have died and many more are missing after heavy rains caused flooding and landslides across much of western Japan, with Motoyama, near Tokyo, getting unheard of 23 inches of rainfall, with heavy rains expected to continue through Sunday and 48,000 police, firefighters and Self-Defence Force personnel mobilized to help with the rescue effort.

Hiroshima Prefecture was hit the hardest with numerous landslides that killed at least 15 people and authorities have warned that the death toll will continue to rise.

2…………> Anne Frank In USA: Dream Of Freedom

 

On November 9, 1938, the Nazis terrorized Jews throughout the country in the violent Kristallnacht pogroms, also known as the “Night of Broken Glass”, and according to a recent research the family of Anne Frank attempted to emigrate to the US, and later to Cuba, but their efforts were tragically thwarted by America’s restrictive immigration policy and the outbreak of World War II.

“I am forced to look out for emigration and as far as I can see the USA is the only country we could go to,” Otto Frank wrote in English to a friend in the US in 1941.

His efforts to get the family out of the Netherlands to the US likely started as early as 1938 — a turbulent year in which Nazi Germany annexed Austria and part of Czechoslovakia into the Third Reich. (DW)

4…………> New World’s Champion: England?

 

England has booked their place in the World Cup semifinals for the first time since 1990 courtesy of a 2-0 win over Sweden. Harry Maguire and Dele Alli got the goals either side of half-time.

England followed up their penalty shootout win on Wednesday with a convincing 2-0 victory over Sweden in Samara Arena on Sunday.

Harry Maguire scored his first international goal to give England the early lead. Dele Alli got on the score sheet as well as England qualified for their first World Cup semifinal in 28 years.

With the wind in their sails, The Three Lions came close to extending the lead before the break as Raheem Sterling squandered two golden opportunities in one-on-one situations with Olsen. (BBC)

5…………> US/China Trade War: No Soybeans

 

The unintended consequences of the US/China tariff war are hitting hard, as China reduced commitments to buy 366,000 metric tons of U.S. soybeans in the season that ends Aug. 31 and further cut plans to buy 66,000 tons in the following year.

Soybeans are on the hit list of American goods now being targeted by Chinese tariffs that went into effect Friday after the U.S. implemented a raft of duties earlier in the day and President Donald Trump threatened more action. The oilseed is the top agricultural commodity that the U.S. ships to China by far and is among the largest products for overall exports.

1…………> “Mustapo” Knew Novichok: Report 



The Islamic Merkeldom of Germany intelligence service the BND aka “Mustapo” for “Merkel’s Gestapo” obtained a sample of the so-called “Novichok” nerve agent and determined its chemical composition back in the 1990s, and after analyzing it in a Swedish laboratory, the intelligence service and the German army were only provided with the chemical composition of the pathogen.

2…………> Trump In Montana: Feathers Flying


President Trump attacked wayward California congresswoman Maxine “Fire 45” Waters as a “low IQ” person lost somewhere in the 60s and also offered to contribute $1,000,000 to Senator Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren favorite charity if she can provide DNA proof of her Native American heritage.

3…………> Islamic Sheikdom Of France: Race Riots

 

Riots over the fatal police shooting of a young man named Abubakar F…., in western city Nantes continued for a third night, with 50 cars set on fire and clashes between police and protesters intensifying after arsonists attempted to set fire on a high school and a petrol station.

The 22-year-old slain youth was killed during a police check of a vehicle after he “refused to comply” with police requests, with the officer who fired the shot being detained for questioning by a police oversight body on suspicion of “voluntary violence by a person in authority leading to unintentional death”.

In other words, the “Middle Eastern” jihadist Trojan horse is running wild in the Islamic Sheikdom of France, a prime example to everyone watching what happens when borders of a country are left open to unvetted punks and pee-drenched peddlers to come as they please.

4…………> Tariff Punches Fly: China

 

The US tariffs of $34bn or a 25% levy on Chinese goods have come into effect at midnight Washington time, the start of a trade war between the world’s two largest economies, forcing China to retaliate by imposing a similar 25% tariff on 545 US products, also worth a total of $34bn.

Beijing accused the US of starting the “largest trade war in economic history”.

“After the US activated its tariff measures against China, China’s measures against the US took effect immediately,” said Lu Kang, a foreign ministry spokesman.

Two companies in Shanghai told the BBC that customs authorities were delaying clearance processes for US imports on Friday.
