Militant Islamist fighters parade on military vehicles along the streets of northern Raqqa province

Islamic militants have army of 200,000, claims senior Kurdish leader, By Patrick Cockburn, The Independent, November 16, 2014.

The Islamic State (Isis) has recruited an army hundreds of thousands strong, far larger than previous estimates by the CIA, according to a senior Kurdish leader. He said the ability of Isis to attack on many widely separated fronts in Iraq and Syria at the same time shows that the number of militant fighters is at least 200,000, seven or eight times bigger than foreign in intelligence estimates of up to 31,500 men.

Fuad Hussein, the chief of staff of the Kurdish President Massoud Barzani said in an exclusive interview with The Independent on Sunday that “I am talking about hundreds of thousands of fighters because they are able to mobilise Arab young men in the territory they have taken.”

Mali added to countries for special Ebola screening in the US

Dr Salia is being treated at a specialist centre in Omaha, Nebraska

The US authorities have added Mali to the countries whose passengers will face additional screening.

Enhanced measures will come into force today, the Centres for Disease Control (CDC) and the Department of Homeland Security said in a joint statement.

Mali will join Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia as countries from which passengers will face additional restrictions.

“The CDC recommended this measure because there have been a number of confirmed cases of Ebola in Mali in recent days, and a large number of individuals may have been exposed to those cases.”

Travellers will be subject to three weeks monitoring, which will include taking their temperature twice a day, watching out for symptoms such as fever and vomiting as well as liaising with the local medical authorities.

Obama Met With Ferguson Activists – Said He’s Concerned They “Stay on Course”

ferguson market looting

President Obama met with Ferguson protest leaders on November 5th, the day after the midterm elections. The meeting was not on his daily schedule. He was concerned that the protesters “stay on course.”

What does that mean?

And why is the president meeting with the violent Mike Brown protesters before a verdict is reached in the court case?

The G20 Just Stole Your Bank Account

Can you find yourself in the picture?

With the G-20 summit coming up this weekend in Brisbane, Australia, it might be worth wondering if you can have too much money in the bank, or, whether you should any money in the bank at all!

As of this morning all nations belonging to the G20 will immediately submit and pass legislation that will fulfill a new investment program. This new program creates a whole new paradigm and set of rules whereby banks will no longer recognize your deposits as money.

Russell Napier is declaring November 16th as “the day money dies,” and this constitutes today’s  Zero Hedge’s headlineAccording to Zero Hedge, Napier says the G-20 will announce “that bank deposits are just part of commercial banks’ capital structure, and also that they are far from the most senior portion of that structure.” Pay close attention America this means that following a bank failure, “a bank deposit is no longer money in the way a banknote is.”

This G20 legislation will formally push down bank accounts through the capital structure to a position of being mere material capital risk in any ‘failing’ institution. In our last financial crisis, deposits were de facto guaranteed by the state, but beginning November 16th holders of large-scale deposits will be just another creditor fighting to regain their share of the assets of a failed bank,” according to Zero Hedge. And how much will your former money be worth when you come to make your claim? For reasons that will become apparent as you weave your way through this article and its conclusions, if you have $100,000 in a bank account, you will take home under $1200!  This is why for the past 18 months I have been telling the nation to not deposit your paycheck into the bank. The prudent thing to do is to only put enough money in the bank to pay your basic bills and do other things with the remainder of the money, such as pay off your mortgage or pay off your car loans. If you have not been doing this, then you are almost out of time for the banksters have recently practiced how to steal your bank account.

Brian Stelter Grills Ferguson Activist Bassem Masri Who Threatened to Shut Down CNN

From YouTube:

As tensions mount in Ferguson, Mo., before a grand jury decides whether to indict Officer Darren Wilson for the death of 18-year-old Michael Brown, local activists have begun fighting against large media companies they feel distort the truth. Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter confronted one such activist Sunday. Bassem Masri infamously led protesters last month in shouting down CNN reporter Sarah Sidner as she attempted to deliver a report from Ferguson. When asked by Stelter why he did it, Masri responded that it was “nothing personal” against Sidner — who, he added, is a “great reporter” — but that local activists were rejecting the mainstream media.

“We’re not going to be just laying back and letting anybody paint whatever narrative they want when it comes to our community,” Masri said of the motivations behind protesting the media.

The activist, who has been continuously live-streaming Ferguson protests since the beginning, told Stelter that his main objection to the mainstream media is its insistence that the demonstrations have been violent. “We haven’t hurt a cop, we haven’t touched any of them,” Masri said. “We’ve haven’t made any aggression towards them, it’s been vice versa.”

Later in the segment, Stelter confronted Masri with footage of the live-streamer outwardly provoking a police officer, calling him a “pig,” and saying “I’m praying for your death.”

“Aren’t you just trying to provoke the police there, trying to get more views maybe?” the CNN asked.

Masri responded that he’s just a citizen and that he doesn’t truly mean what he said.

Ukraine Bank Runs Begin As Poroshenko Plans To Sever Socio-Economic Ties With Separatist-Held Regions

In what the pro-Russian separatists call “an act of genocide,” Ukraine’s President Poroshenko signed a decree Friday that will explicitly withdraw state support for the regions within a month. While appearing to implicitly recognize the regions of Donetsk and Luhansk as autonomous, the decree means that the central bank will no longer service bank accounts, prisoners will be transferred (inmates with minor offences will be released), and perhaps most troubling as the cold winter begins, the order covers all public services, including crucial ones, such as schools, hospitals, and emergency services; and local heating and power plants will be subject to new laws that could involve cutting energy supplies altogether to the plants that don’t pay. Luhansk’s leader exclaimed, “the total socio-economic blockade of Donbass is de facto an act on genocide and devastation of our people,” and as the images below show, bank runs have already begun across the region with long lines forming at ATMs.
