Aaron Mate at UN: OPCW cover-up denies justice to Douma victims

Speaking to the United Nations Security Council, Aaron Maté of The Grayzone calls out the OPCW's ongoing cover-up of its investigation into the alleged April 2018 chemical attack in Douma, Syria.
Aaron also debunks the latest efforts by the OPCW, in a new report put out by the watchdog's Investigation and Identification Team (IIT), to whitewash the scandal.

OPCW and ICC have lost all credibility

[@tangerineskye2180]

Yes, I agree with you

[@marcusaureliusss]

ICC is a kangaroo court created by the bombers of Yugoslavia. It never had any credibility to begin with.

[@tommackling]

The WEF bought these UN agencies with the 2019 UN - WEF partnership agreement (where the UN agreed to grant the WEF extraordinary influence in exchange for cash). The WEF probably never read the OPCW charter or operational principles and just assumed they could put the "OPCW letterhead" on whatever messaging they wanted to put out.

[@jfrorn]

That's an added benefit! Clearly, if the agencies that are entrusted to investigate international crimes are discredited, that's a feature, it undermines international law and accountability. All the better for the (we make) "rules based" order...

[@sharlagardner]

Aaron Mate is an incredibly impressive and brave human being. His relentless truthseeking and truthtelling in the face of sociopathic corruption is heroic. Respect.

[@debbiedogs1]

He still believes that the corrupt sociopathic money ADDICTS in power will listen to reason and stop their lies, but that is unrealistic. We need to realize that sociopathic money ADDICTS are in power, and they have ZERO humanity, ZERO integrity and and ZERO intention of doing anything other than continue to embezzle from many governments by lying us into wars, lying to dupe us about EVERYTHING, and killing and destroying in their lunacy and addiction. To empower ourselves, it is CRUCIAL for us to know some details of the scam the US greedy liars have done here and in all countries they take over. The overview/exposé below is just 6 paragraphs, and shows us what is behind the curtain of lies they dupe us with. Information is power, and knowing what the scammers hide from us will mean we can do good OFFENSE and be effective in fighting the corrupt liars, not just keep reacting as the sociopaths continue to escalate their tyranny and oppression, and take everything from us. Here is what the US criminals have done all over the world, since WW2: 1. Take over a country by coup, assassination, lies about government being corrupt or by threat or invasion so they can... 2. Implement their EMBEZZLING scam of "privatization", taking over government services & systems and national assets so the corrupt liars can handle fiat government money & BILL THE GOVERNMENT ANY AMOUNT for running such things; they provide themselves with massive exec salaries and insanely high profits, becoming oligarchs and billionaires. 3. Lie to the public ENDLESSLY to keep us duped. 4. Praise leaders who submit to US corruption & demonize leaders who RESIST or reverse it - like Putin, who reversed the US plundering done under US puppet Yeltsin, like Chavez and Maduro in Venezuela, like Gaddafi wanting things nationalized and government money going to THE PEOPLE, like Morales in Bolivia, like Assad who said NO to a US pipeline through Syria, and so on. We also need to know that the demonization of both Russia and China is part of the multipronged US sabotage of the BRICS coalition since 2006. The greedy sociopathic money ADDICTS hate that those two countries are doing fair deals with other countries and helping them escape US control, corruption, privatization and loansharking. Also, vax co's & digital ID systems to control & subjugate us are "privatized" (as are quarantine camps). The scheme was to get TRILLIONS from many govts FOREVER while arranging to squash us so we could never rise up to stop their corruption, tyranny and inhumanity. They tried many pandemics previously to enrich themselves with government money; this was the most coordinated one - and used the most coercion. More specifics re "privatization" embezzling: Yes, in general a government can issue ANY AMOUNT OF MONEY for anything that is physically possible; the corrupt know this and have used that knowledge to scam the public and embezzle government money. They take over government services, conning the public about "saving money" and being "more efficient", but those are lies. The costs actually become higher because the corrupt liars overbill the govt for everything, billing ANY AMOUNT, providing massive exec salaries and insanely high profits, as already mentioned. And they give us REDUCED services, because their sociopathic greed and money addiction means they take more for themselves and do not supply what they are supposed to supply for us. Basically, the US has built a global corruption cartel, taking over countries (and their media) to EMBEZZLE from their governments. The UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand were coopted and corrupted in the 70s-80s; the massive embezzling that ensued by taking over the many dozens of government services, support systems, assets and resources they had is what gave rise to the billionaire class in the 80s! We need a successful INTERVENTION on the lunatic money addicts in power who lie, destroy and KILL for more "money fixes". They are totally UNFIT TO GOVERN and should face charges of dereliction of duty, violating the Constitution, embezzling federal money, crimes against humanity, violating the Nuremberg code, war crimes and more.

I am just blown away, over and over, with the level of research, corroboration, and moral aptitude that we see displayed by Aaron Mate, in comparison to the droves and droves of mainstream media reports that are just SO happy and willing to allow the perpetrators of empire and murder to completely form their narratives and hand them their stories that never challenge any power structure. I have so much respect for Aaron and Max that even when I disagree with them, I would still rather listen to them than most of the people I agree with, and it truly does make me so sad to see the contrast between them and the people who push the narratives that most of our society are relying on entirely to form their ideologies and understanding of the world at large. It is in this massive difference that we can find the true root of most of the suffering and injustice being perpetrated today, mostly in our names, with our tax money, while enriching those in the media and the war machine that gives them life and the basic relevancy that they would not have, had they not become puppets of empire and the destruction that it carries out. There is at least a tiny modicum of hope for us, and our planet, so long as Aaron, Max, and their true peers have some semblance of a voice in the public arena; however, when that voice is entirely gone, so will be the human spirit and the future of our species. Thank you so much, Aaron.
