The only people who misunderstand George Orwell’s 1984 are those that go around trying to imagine it has a “leftist” message. It is mistaken to imagine that children in the English-speaking world get his work drilled into them like a mantra because, somehow, genuine socialists managed to sneak his work past a censor that banishes the likes of Karl Marx and Malcolm X.

‘State-sponsored terrorism’: John Brennan slams reported assassination of Iranian scientist
‘State-sponsored terrorism’: John Brennan slams reported assassination of Iranian scientist
“This was a criminal act and highly reckless,” Brennan charged. “It risks lethal retaliation and a new round of regional conflict.”
He urged Iran to remember that President-elect Joe Biden will take office in January.
“Iranian leaders would be wise to wait for the return of responsible American leadership on the global stage and to resist the urge to respond against perceived culprits,” he counseled.
“I do not know whether a foreign government authorized or carried out…the murder of Fakhrizadeh. Such an act of state-sponsored terrorism would be a flagrant violation of international law and encourage more governments to carry out lethal attacks against foreign officials,” Brennan warned.

“The official said the move was decided before news came of the assassination of a prominent Iranian nuclear scientist,” Starr explained. “But the movement of the US forces is an increased deterrence message to Iran regardless the official noted.”
“The movement puts increased American military firepower and thousands of personnel into the region through the end of the Trump Administration. It may be up to President-elect Joe Biden to decide when to withdraw them,” she added.

“Voters, not lawyers, choose the president. Ballots, not briefs, decide elections,” Bibas said in the opinion, which also denied the campaign’s request to stop the state from certifying its results, a demand he called “breathtaking.”
After brutal beating of friend, the target of Steve Bannon’s protest group will sue police and City of Surrey for ‘failing to protect neighbourhood’
‘Citizens’ from Steve Bannon and a Chinese billionaire’s ‘new federal state’ have been protesting in a Metro Vancouver cul-de-sac nearly daily for more than two and a half months. They accuse a local resident, Gao Bingchen, of being a spy for Beijing. On Wednesday in broad daylight, two protesters savagely beat Gao’s friend, Louis Huang. Louis was smoking outside waiting for his friend to come out of the house when two men approached him, dragged him to the ground and repeatedly kicked him in the neck and head, surveillance video obtained by the Star shows. Police showed up around 15 minutes later and arrested the two men. But on Thursday morning, the same group of protesters minus the two attackers showed up again. Gao is now planning to sue the City of Surrey and Surrey police for their ongoing failure to protect his family and neighbourhood.

Iran’s Top Nuclear Scientist Assassinated As Israel Tries To Provoke War
Iran’s Top Nuclear Scientist Assassinated As Israel Tries To Provoke War
The assassination of Mohsen Fahrizade does not aim at Iran’s nuclear program. Its purpose is to assassinate the nuclear deal with Iran before president elect Joe Biden comes into office.
There are expectations, which I don’t have, that Biden will rejoin the nuclear deal with Iran. The Trump administration had left the deal and had re-introduced severe sanctions against the country. President Trump retweeted news of today’s assassination. If Biden really wants to revive the deal he should immediately condemn today’s assassination. Obama did similar when the other scientist were killed.
