First half hour: David Swanson — a notable author and activist from Charlottesville, Virginia — reports on the “Top 10 Misconceptions About Charlottesville.” He makes a number of interesting points, such as:
“Tearing down statues is not opposing history. Charlottesville has three Confederate war statues, two (pro) genocide of the Native Americans statues, one World War I statue, one Vietnam War memorial, one statue of Thomas Jefferson (whose words and deeds, I’m sorry to say, agreed almost entirely with the latest racists), and one statue of Homer (poet of war). And that’s it. We have no memorials, whether monumental statuary or otherwise, to a single educator, artist, musician, athlete, author, or activist, nothing for Native American history, slavery, civil rights, women’s rights, or ANYTHING ELSE. Almost all of our history is missing.”
I hope some day, after the world turns away from war, there will be a statue of David Swanson—one of America’s most eloquent voices of peace—somewhere in Charlottesville.
Note: Toward the end of the interview, we discuss the possibility of Cointelpro/Gladio involvement in the events in Charlottesville, as posited in my article “Charlottesville False Flag Hoax?!”

Second half hour: Historian and 9/11 truth activist James Hufferd, Ph.D. discusses Charlottesville and much more, including his new article:
From Mazin Qumsiyeh http://popular-resistance.blogspot.com/2017/08/questions-to-us-citizens.html
Many readers asked me (also as a US citizen) to comment in this blog on what is going on in race relations in the USA. I will briefly say that the politicians who criticize Trump (both republicans and democrats) are hypocritical. These same politicians who criticize Trump and his racist minions never challenged hate directed at Muslims and Arabs in general. The white nationalists and supremacists who are calling for ethnic cleansing and for hate are no different than the Zionists that they adore and fund and who do far more violence and atrocities. The hypocrisy in the US is more blatant and sickening than the thugs that caused the mayhem in Charlottesville. But what worries us more is that the distractions can allow us to slide more into a nuclear world war (please watch news related to Iran and North Korea).
There are also credible reports of Zionist thugs infiltrating both camps (‘left’ and ‘right’) to entice violence. I remember how Zionists tried to infiltrate one of our demonstrations in Connecticut posing as neo-Nazis to incite violence and mayhem. And we all know now how FBI agents infiltrated civil rights groups doing the same things in the 1960s. If US citizens do not wake-up to where the real danger comes from (the elites profiting from all of this), the society will be torn apart by petty hatreds that only serve the policies of ‘divide and conquer’ that are being implemented in Syria, Yemen, and Iraq. Arabs in those countries are waking up to that but after much destruction. I hope fellow US citizens wake up to this early on.
That infighting among the slaves in the plantation, is reminiscent of the infighting that was going on at the WTC because of the so-called "Islamic Center" project. Back then, a great article exposed a whole bunch of unsavory characters and agencies behind the project :

It is ridiculous, to say the least, that people are still falling for those petty tricks, aiming to distract the slaves from their real oppressors.
Whether some like the Confederates and what they stood for, or the Union and what they pretended to stand for, the carpet is being pulled under everybody's feet and more weight is scheduled to be dumped on everybody's shoulders, regardless of whose statue they want to have in their town. And to the ruling class taking pleasure abusing mankind, your skin color is not relevant whatsoever, so wake the F up for real.
