North Korea’s deputy UN ambassador has warned the UN General
Assembly that the crisis on the Korean Peninsula “has reached the
touch-and-go point and a nuclear war may break out any moment.” Kim In-ryong said North Korea is the only country in the world subjected to “such an extreme and direct nuclear threat” by the US, AP reports. He accused Washington of hatching a “secret operation aimed at the removal of our supreme leadership” and defended his country’s nuclear arsenal, at the heart of the crisis, as being for self-defense.
Speaking to the UN General Assembly’s disarmament committee, he insisted that nukes are Pyongyang’s “precious strategic asset that cannot be reversed or bartered for anything,” a line that other North Korean officials have voiced almost word-for-word before.
Also in line with the North’s previous rhetoric, he warned that “the
entire US mainland is within our firing range and if the US dares to
invade our sacred territory even an inch it will not escape our severe
punishment in any part of the globe.”
At the same time Kim claimed that “the DPRK consistently
supports the total elimination of nuclear weapons and the efforts for
denuclearization of the entire world.” But not before the US renounces its nuclear arsenal.
“Unless the hostile policy and the nuclear threat of the US
is thoroughly eradicated, we will never put our nuclear weapons and
ballistic rockets on the negotiating table under any circumstances,” he said.
Despite round upon round of international economic sanctions,
North Korea has been winding up its nuclear and ballistic missile
programs with regular test blasts and launches.
On Monday, Russia joined the UN sanctions regime as President
Vladimir Putin signed a 40-page decree restricting economic, scientific
and technological cooperation with the North and identify 11 North
Korean individuals linked to its nuclear program.
The EU also adopted a new range of sanctions to punish Pyongyang for its “continued and accelerated nuclear- and ballistic-missile programs.”
The US, meanwhile, has kicked off five-day naval exercises
together with South Korea, in the waters surrounding the Korean
Peninsula. Pyongyang has denounced the drills as provocative, and
recently renewed its threats of a missile strike at the US Territory of
Guam.
Washington and Pyongyang have been trading threats and verbal
blows for months now, some of the most recent including US President
Trump calling the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un a “rocket man…on a suicide mission” and receiving the label of “mentally-deranged US dotard” in return.

BETHESDA, Md. —A notorious late-term abortionist plans to open an
“advanced gestation” abortion facility in Bethesda, Maryland on Tuesday—
an announcement that has been met with opposition from pro-life groups
nationwide.
Leroy Carhart will perform abortions in a suite of the Wildwood
Medical Center on Georgetown Road, notes the website
AbortionClinics.org. “Offering advanced gestation abortion care starting Tuesday, October
17th!” it reads. Abortion is legal throughout all nine months of
pregnancy in Maryland.
A protest and press conference is scheduled for noon as members of
the Maryland Coalition for Life, Operation Rescue and others will be
present to speak against the new facility.
Operation Rescue says that the location is not licensed to perform
abortions, and Carhart would be operating illegally if he conducts
terminations as scheduled. It filed complaints with the Maryland
Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, as well as the Maryland Board
of Physicians.
“We trust that any effort to open that Bethesda facility without a
valid license will be met with swift action on the part of Maryland
authorities, who are already aware of the situation,” said President
Troy Newman in a statement.
Bethesda Magazine contacted AMR Commercial, a leasing agent for the
building, which advised that it had received a number of calls urging
that Carhart’s lease be voided.
However, representative William Montrose noted that it was another
management company that leased the suite to the abortionist. He believes
that an abortion facility is a “bad fit for the building” because it
would generate opposition.
“Typically, with any kind of business, you don’t want any kind of
distracting noise outside your door,” Montrose told the outlet.
The website PrayForBethesda.com urges those opposed to the abortion
facility to contact Alvin L. Aubinoe, Inc. about Carhart’s lease.
MorbelliAs previously reported,
Carhart became the subject of controversy in 2013 after mother Jennifer
McKenna Morbelli, 29, died following complications from the abortion of
her 33-week-old daughter, who she named Madison Leigh. Morbelli opted
to have an abortion because the baby had fetal anomalies, reports state.
An autopsy later revealed that Morbelli died “due to or as a
consequence of Amniotic Fluid Embolism following Medical Termination of
Pregnancy,” or the existence of amniotic fluid in her bloodstream, which
resulted in clotting.
The Maryland Board of Physicians agreed to investigate the matter following a complaint, but ultimately decided to take no action in the situation. Carhart was also captured during an undercover investigation that same year likening the lifeless and “mushy” bodies of aborted babies to “meat in a crock pot.”
“So, what makes the baby ‘mushy?’” the woman, who posed as an abortion-minded mother, asked.
“The fact that it’s not alive for 2 to 3 days,” Carhart responded.
“Oh, so I’ll have a dead baby in me?” the woman inquired.
“For three days, yeah,” Carhart said.
“Will it start to decay or something?” the woman asked.
“No,” Carhart said. “It’s like putting meat in a crock pot. Okay? It
doesn’t get broken. It gets softer. It doesn’t get infected.”
“Okay, so the dead baby in me is like meat in a crock pot,” the woman repeated.
“Pretty much,” Carhart replied. “Kinda much.”
Carhart also operates an abortion facility in Bellevue, Nebraska, and
states on his website that he is a supporter of the abortion advocacy
groups Faith Aloud and the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice.

BETHESDA, Maryland, October 17, 2017 (LifeSiteNews)
– A late-term abortionist cancelled all abortions scheduled for today
in his new, illegal facility, pro-life advocates announced as they
protested in front of it.
LeRoy Carhart is one of the most well-known late-term abortionists in
the U.S. Until recently he operated two abortion facilities: one in
Bellevue, Nebraska and one in Germantown, Maryland.
At the Germantown location, Carhart committed abortions on babies
through all nine months of pregnancy. Pro-lifers were overjoyed to learn
at the end of this summer that the Maryland
Coalition for Life successfully purchased the building in which
Germantown Reproductive Health Services was located, shutting Carhart’s
business down.
Operation Rescue then learned Carhart purchased a new facility in
Bethesda, Maryland, a wealthy suburb just outside Washington, D.C.
Despite advertising late-term abortions, Carhart is not licensed to commit them at this location.
“We have successfully prevented Carhart from opening his illegal
abortion facility in Bethesda today as planned, but we have only won the
first round of what we expect will be a tough fight to protect babies
and their mothers from Carhart’s shoddy abortion practices,” said Troy
Newman, President of Operation Rescue. “We pray this facility is never
allowed to open.”
Operation Rescue has already filed complaints against Carhart’s new
business, which is operating under the name AbortionClinics.org, Inc. “There is no doubt that Carhart believes he can break the law without
consequences. This time, he tried to pull a fast one and got caught,”
said Newman. “We call on the Department of Health to permanently shut
down his illegal abortion business. His attempt to conduct late-term
abortions illegally is so egregious that we urge the Medical Board to
revoke Carhart’s Maryland medical license permanently.”
Commercial livestock has more legal protection than unborn babies in Maryland
Situated near banks, the high-end grocery store Balducci’s, and less
than a mile from Walter Johnson High School, Carhart’s new facility drew
pro-life activists from Maryland and D.C. today.
Among the protesters were Bethesda locals, Maryland pro-life
activists who have experience sidewalk counseling outside Carhart’s old
Germantown center, and students from Brookewood School in Kensington. “In the seven years of conducting late-term abortions at his former
facility in Germantown, at least ten women were rushed to hospital
emergency rooms by ambulance, suffering from life-threatening
complications as a result of the risky abortion procedures he performed
on them,” Arina Grossu, director of the Family Research Council’s Center
for Human Dignity, said at the protest. Jennifer Morbelli, a 29-year-old teacher, died from complications after Carhart committed a late-term abortion on her.
“Currently, commercial livestock in a slaughterhouse and animals in a
laboratory have more legal protection from pain than do unborn
children,” said Grossu, noting that many of the babies Carhart aborts
can feel pain as they are torn apart.
Albert Stecklein, whose daughter attends Walter Johnson High School,
said he was “stunned” when he learned the late-term abortion facility
was opening in his neighborhood.
“Only three weeks ago the effort to shut [Carhart] down and get him
to leave [Germantown] was successful,” Stecklein told LifeSiteNews. He
protested outside Carhart’s Germantown facility “for about six years
every Monday.”
Pro-lifers are dismayed “to find out he’s coming back so soon,” said Stecklein.
But “God always wins,” Michele Hendrickson of Students for Life of America encouraged attendees.
Maryland pro-life advocates say they will hold a prayer vigil outside
the Bethesda abortion center every Tuesday night, and continue
monitoring Carhart to see if he commits any illegal abortions.

But she was forced to delay and cancel numerous appearances.
She told the Graham Norton Show: “I was running down the stairs in
heels with a cup of coffee in hand, I was talking over my shoulder and
my heel caught and I fell backwards.
“I tried to get up and it really hurt. I’ve broken my toe. I’ve received excellent care from your excellent health service.” Read more

Planned Parenthood celebrated its 101st birthday Monday, marking the
century-long operation of what started as a small birth control clinic
in Brooklyn and is now an abortion giant operating in every U.S. state.
“The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of its
infant members is to kill it,” Planned Parenthood founder Margaret
Sanger wrote in her 1920 book “The Wickedness of Creating Large Families,” and her corporation has not let her down.
Planned Parenthood aborted 6,803,782 babies between 1978 and 2016, according to CNS News, and 328,348 unborn babies between 2015-2016, according to its annual report, putting the 2017 grand total at 7,132,130.
While Planned Parenthood aborted more than 300,000 unborn babies last
year, they handed out only 2,889 adoption referrals — roughly one
adoption referral for every 114 abortions.
The abortion giant attempts to make light of these numbers
by insisting that abortions make up only 3 percent of the services it
offers, because it counts an abortion as one service. A woman who goes
to Planned Parenthood to receive an abortion also receives a pregnancy
test, contraception kit and a pap smear. By Planned Parenthood’s math,
aborting the baby is only one-quarter of a woman’s visit.
“This is a little like performing an abortion and giving a woman an
aspirin, and saying only half of what you do is abortion,” columnist
Rich Lowry wrote in The New York Post. (RELATED: Look At What Planned Parenthood Has ‘Achieved’ In 100 Years).
The number of other services Planned Parenthood offers also continues
to decline. It performed more than a million breast exams in 1999, but
only 363,803 in 2014.
Record numbers of abortions also followed after medication abortions
became available in 2000, according to Planned Parenthood’s 100 Year Strong timeline.

Workers at the Route 91
festival during which Stephen Paddock unleashed his massacre have
reportedly been given back their phones and laptops by the FBI only to
discover that all messages and videos from the night of the attack have
been wiped clean.
According to a Las Vegas resident who
posted a status update on Facebook, “A bunch of people that worked the
Route 91 said they got their cell phones back today. They all said that
all their phones are completely wiped clean! All messages and info from
that weekend are completely gone. Anyone else experience this?”
“A few different people who were vendors there are all saying the same thing,” the woman later comments.
Later in the thread, a Route 91 worker
confirms the story, commenting, “Of course. It’s an active federal
crime scene. They can wipe it clean. I was the beverage manager for the
entire event. My laptop is wiped clean.”
Infowars was separately contacted by
another individual who told us the same story. Both individuals asked
that their names not be revealed.
The fact that all the information relating to the massacre has been deleted is sure to prompt further claims of a cover-up.
While some assert that the feds wiping
data is a routine part of their investigation procedure, if authorities
want to stop the many conspiracy theories circulating about the attack,
they’re not doing a very good job of it.
As Ann Coulter notes, the media’s
treatment of the story and the constantly changing official narrative is
only serving to make people more suspicious.
“I don’t know what happened — and,
apparently, neither do the cops — but it’s kind of odd that we keep
being told things that aren’t true about the Las Vegas massacre, from
the basic timeline to this weird insistence that Paddock made a good
living at gambling,” writes Coulter.
She points to many questions that
remain unanswered about the attack, including why Paddock checked in to
the hotel days earlier than authorities first said he did, why he was
wearing gloves if he planned to commit suicide and why Paddock chose to
“unload 200 rounds into the hallway at a security guard who was checking
on someone else’s room before beginning his massacre.”

It sounds conspiratorial, no doubt. But sometimes the truth is
stranger than fiction. As though the Freemasons weren’t creepy enough,
they’re sponsoring a program to help collect the bio-data of children
and store it away for future reference. Nothing to see here, Citizen.
Move along. The program is called MoChip, and it’s designed as a public outreach
campaign of the Freemasons in Missouri to help with missing or exploited
children. It has also become a nation-wide program, extending much
further than Missouri.
According to MoChip’s website, it is “a comprehensive
child identification program designed to give Missouri families a
measure of protection against the ever increasing problem of missing and
abducted children. MoCHIP stands for Missouri Child Identification
and Protection Program. The program uses an Amber Alert compatible
computer disc to provide their child’s critical information to the
parents. Microchips are NOT used in the program.
Here, a toddler’s fingerprints are being digitally copied by helpful freemasons.
So, no microchips. Whew. Close one. What the program does do, however, is collect the digital
photographs, digital fingerprints, DNA mouth-swabs and dental
information from children and they store it on a mini-CD computer disk
to be given to the police when a child goes missing or is abducted. The
Freemasons claim that they do not keep the data, that their computers
are not connected to the Internet and cannot be ‘hacked,’ and that
they’re not retaining the data collected.
According to their website…
MoCHIP operates under the direct sponsorship of the
Missouri Masonic Children’s Foundation, which is recognized as a
501(c)(3) not-for profit by the Internal Revenue Service. It is
supported in a number of ways–Masonic member donations, Masonic Lodge
donations, corporate partnerships, and individual donations–as well as
many other private organization donations, Masonic and not Masonic
related.
You can see the permission slip provided to parents here.
This program is not a new one. It has been going on for ten years and has taken the biodata from 237,115 children to date. According
to news outlets, claims that the Masonic CHIP program promises not to
keep the information is speculative and spurious. The Huffington Post
reports…
They claim their services are superior to what a parent
could accomplish at home, by recording the children’s data personally
and providing their own “health care professionals”
to collect their DNA samples. These are either hired hands who answer
to the Freemasons or members of the fraternity whose history and
credentials are protected by the organization. There is no way to
guarantee what happens behind closed doors and although they claim to
delete sensitive information (the Canadian website states “No
information is ever stored by the MasoniChIP program”), any computer
savvy person knows that clicking an “x” isn’t permanent unless you
format the entire system…Parents are asked to trust an intriguing,
private fraternity; to ensure that quality standards are met and family
privacy is legally respected without any kind of oversight. Because
Freemasons fund 100 per cent of the initiative, there is no opportunity
to discuss issues regarding data ownership or how they feel about those
technicalities in the privacy of their meetings.
