Kenny_Logins Posted January 29, 2020 Report Share Posted January 29, 2020 I'm going to try posting some news here too. How am I doing? CNN Reporter Informs Iranian Protesters They're Supposed To Be Shouting 'Death To America' TEHRAN—As Iranians protested their government's downing of a passenger jet, a frantic CNN reporter ran through the crowd lecturing them on how they were actually supposed to be shouting "Death to America!" The CNN reporter arrived at the protests, excited to cover another anti-US protest but quickly realized they were actually shouting "Death to the dictator!" and blaming their government for shooting down the plane. "Guys, you're ruining the narrative!" he cried through a megaphone. "We can't run with this! You're willing to assign blame to Iran more readily than the media and the Democrats were! This isn't good for our viewership! Are you guys in league with Fox News?" "Please guys, please shout 'death to America,' just for a few minutes so I can get some B-roll!" His efforts weren't having any effect, so the reporter began trying to start up the chants himself. "Come on, people! Death to America! Death to America! When I say 'Death to,' you say, 'America!' Death to!" A shoe was thrown in his direction, though, and he scattered, fearing for his life. https://babylonbee.com/news/cnn-reporter-informs-iranian-protesters-theyre-supposed-to-be-shouting-death-to-america 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ministry spokesman, Ahmed Al-Abadi, said that "Iraq is now exempt from the US sanctions imposed on Iran with regard to electrical energy and gas supplies, especially as Iraq pays the Iranian side in Iraqi dinars." He added, "The exemption lasts for four months, and it is hoped that it will be extended after that, due to Iraq’s urgent need for electricity, and that the ministry imports gas from the Iranian side, in addition to 1200 MW of electrical energy." And, "The ministry is going to implement the three-year fuel plan, in coordination with the oil ministry, so that the need for Iranian gas will be eliminated."

keylime Posted January 29, 2020 Report Share Posted January 29, 2020 Three year fuel plan? And, "The ministry is going to implement the three-year fuel plan, in coordination with the oil ministry, so that the need for Iranian gas will be eliminated." If it rolls out like the rest of their plans they'll be needing Iranian gas till the camels come home. More like a "Fool's Plan" not a fuel plan. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DinarThug Posted January 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 Legal expert Ali al-Tamimi: the international condemnation of excessive violence in the country ... the beginning of international sanctions and trusteeship Thursday 30, January 2020 09:15 Baghdad / Nina / Legal expert Ali Al-Tamimi stressed that the condemnation by 16 countries of excessive violence against demonstrators is a gradual start to international sanctions. He told the Iraqi National News Agency ( NINA ): With 3 permanent member states on the UN Security Council and others in the European Union from all continents, this is a pressing matter for the United Nations to raise the matter to the UN Security Council. Al-Tamimi added that the violence violates Articles 2 and 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 22 of the International Covenant Charter signed by Iraq. He explained that continuing this repression, especially after being condemned by Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and Iraq, exposes Iraq to the sanctions stipulated in Articles 39 to 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, which begin with an ultimatum and end with the international trusteeship. Al-Tamimi indicated that these crimes do not fall under the statute of limitations and do not relieve the chiefs from criminal responsibility in accordance with articles 48 of the Penal Code, 24 of the Military Penal Code and 52 of the Internal Security Forces law .. and they do not fall out of statute of limitations or the lapse of time according to Article 28 of the International Criminal Court Law. These crimes are considered genocide in accordance with the 1948 Genocide Prevention Agreement signed by Iraq, in addition to which the assault on embassies is added in accordance with the 1961 diplomatic relations and embassy protection agreement. / End 3 LINK 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
