Russian Snipers, Missiles and Warplanes Try to Tilt Libyan War
Moscow is plunging deeper into a war of armed drones in a strategic hot spot rich with oil, teeming with migrants and riddled with militants.

TRIPOLI, Libya — The casualties at the Aziziya field hospital south of Tripoli used to arrive with gaping wounds and shattered limbs, victims of the haphazard artillery fire that has defined battles among Libyan militias. But now medics say they are seeing something new: narrow holes in a head or a torso left by bullets that kill instantly and never exit the body.
It is the work, Libyan fighters say, of Russian mercenaries, including skilled snipers. The lack of an exit wound is a signature of the ammunition used by the same Russian mercenaries elsewhere.
The snipers are among about 200 Russian fighters who have arrived in Libya in the last six weeks, part of a broad campaign by the Kremlin to reassert its influence across the Middle East and Africa.
After four years of behind-the-scenes financial and tactical support for a would-be Libyan strongman, Russia is now pushing far more directly to shape the outcome of Libya’s messy civil war. It has introduced advanced Sukhoi jets, coordinated missile strikes, and precision-guided artillery, as well as the snipers — the same playbook that made Moscow a kingmaker in the Syrian civil war.
“It is exactly the same as Syria,” said Fathi Bashagha, interior minister of the provisional unity government in the capital, Tripoli.
Whatever its effect on the outcome, the Russian intervention has already given Moscow a de facto veto over any resolution of the conflict.
The Russians have intervened on behalf of the militia leader Khalifa Hifter, who is based in eastern Libya and is also backed by the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and, at times, France. His backers have embraced him as their best hope to check the influence of political Islam, crack down on militants and restore an authoritarian order.
Mr. Hifter has been at war for more than five years with a coalition of militias from western Libya who back the authorities in Tripoli. The Tripoli government was set up by the United Nations in 2015 and is officially supported by the United States and other Western powers. But in practical terms, Turkey is its only patron.
The new intervention of private Russian mercenaries, who are closely tied to the Kremlin, is just one of the parallels with the Syrian civil war.
The Russian snipers belong to the Wagner Group, the Kremlin-linked private company that also led Russia’s intervention in Syria, according to three senior Libyan officials and five Western diplomats closely tracking the war.
In both conflicts, rival regional powers are arming local clients. And, as in Syria, the local partners who had teamed up with the United States to fight the Islamic State are now complaining of abandonment and betrayal.
The United Nations, which has tried and failed to broker peace in both countries, has watched as its eight-year arms embargo on Libya is becoming “a cynical joke,” as the United Nations special envoy recently put it.
Yet in some ways, the stakes in Libya are higher.
More than three times the size of Texas, Libya controls vast oil reserves, pumping out 1.3 million barrels a day despite the present conflict. Its long Mediterranean coastline, just 300 miles from Italy, has been a jumping-off point for tens of thousands of Europe-bound migrants.
And the open borders around Libya’s deserts have provided havens for extremists from North Africa and beyond.
The conflict has become a bipolar combination of the primitive and futuristic. Turkey and the Emirates have turned Libya into the first war fought primarily by clashing fleets of armed drones. The United Nations estimates that during the past six months, the two sides have conducted more than 900 drone missions.
But on the ground, the war is between militias with fewer than 400 fighters typically engaged on both sides at any time. The fighting happens almost exclusively in a handful of deserted districts on the southern outskirts of Tripoli, while in neighborhoods just a few miles away, streets are clogged with civilian traffic and espresso bars bustle amid heaps of uncollected garbage.
“There is a huge discrepancy between the Libyan fighting on the ground and the advanced technology in the air from the meddling foreign powers,” said Emad Badi, a Libyan scholar at the Middle East Institute who visited the front in July. “It’s like they are different worlds.”
On a recent tour of the front-line district of Ain Zara, a Tripoli militia officer, Muhammad el-Delawi, passed out stacks of cash to fighters in T-shirts or mismatched camouflage uniforms, some in tennis shoes or sandals, others only with bare feet. The twisted wreckage of an ambulance hit by a drone missile sat by the side of the road.
The arrival of the Russian snipers is already transforming the war, Mr. el-Delawi said, recounting the deaths of nine of his fighters the previous day — one of them shot in the eye.
“The bullet was as long as a finger,” he said.
One European security official said the absence of exit wounds, a mark of hollow-point ammunition, matches injuries inflicted by Russian snipers in eastern Ukraine.
By the beginning of April, the conflict had largely died down and the United Nations secretary general, António Gutteres, arrived in Tripoli to try to finalize a peace deal. But the next day Mr. Hifter launched a surprise assault on the capital, restarting the civil war.
Officials of the Tripoli government say Russia is now bringing in more mercenaries by the week.
“It is very clear that Russia is going all in on this conflict,” said Gen. Osama al-Juwaili, the top commander of the forces aligned with the Tripoli government. He complained that the West was doing nothing to protect that government from the foreign powers determined to push Mr. Hifter into power.
“Why all this pain?” he said sardonically. “Just stop this now and assign the guy to rule us.”
Russia had previously stayed in the background while the United Arab Emirates and Egypt took the leading roles in military support for Mr. Hifter. But by September, his assault on Tripoli seemed to have stalled and Russia apparently saw an opportunity.
Given the amateurish nature of the ground fighting, some diplomats said, the arrival of 200 Russian professionals could have an outsized impact.
A spokesman for Mr. Hifter’s forces did not respond to a request for comment.
Having collapsed into feuding city-states after the overthrow of the longtime Libyan dictator Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi in 2011, Libya is less a functioning state than a vast and bloated public payroll. Citizens and towns are united only by a shared dependence on the oil revenue flowing through the national bank in Tripoli to a vastly inflated government work force. Some of those salaries ultimately end up paying fighters on all sides of the war.
Control of the central bank and the oil revenue has made Tripoli the war’s grand prize.
Mr. Hifter, 75, was a former army general under Colonel el-Qaddafi who defected and lived in Northern Virginia as a C.I.A. client for more than a decade. Returning to Libya in 2011, he sought but failed to win a leading role in the uprising.
Five years ago, he vowed to rule Libya as a new military strongman, but his progress has been halting. His limited success has depended heavily on his regional backers and, until now, Russia appeared to have hedged its bets.
The Kremlin has maintained contacts with the authorities in Tripoli as well as with former el-Qaddafi officials, even as its support for Mr. Hifter has been vital and growing.
Russia has printed millions of dollars’ worth of Libyan bank notes and shipped them to Mr. Hifter. By 2015, Russia had set up a base in western Egypt to help provide technical support and repair equipment, according to Western diplomats. By last year, Russia had also sent at least a handful of military advisers to Mr. Hifter’s forces in Benghazi.
Last November, Mr. Hifter was filmed at a table in Moscow with both the Russian defense minister and the head of the Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, the close ally of Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin. Mr. Prigozhin is under indictment in the United States for involvement in the internet “troll farm” that sought to influence the 2016 presidential election.
As in Syria, the Russian escalation in Libya has drawn complaints from former American allies that Washington has abandoned them.
Even though it officially supports the United Nations-recognized government, the United States has largely disengaged and President Trump has appeared to endorse Mr. Hifter. Mr. Trump called Mr. Hifter a few days after he began his assault on Tripoli to applaud his “role in fighting against terrorism.”
Now Mr. Hifter’s forces are conducting airstrikes against militias from western Libya that had previously worked closely with American military forces to expel a branch of the Islamic State from its stronghold in the city of Surt.
“We fought with you together in Surt and now we are being targeted 10 times a day by Hifter,” Gen. Muhammad Haddad, now a commander for the Tripoli forces, said he told American officials.
When Mr. Hifter began his assault on Tripoli in April, his biggest advantage was the use of armed drones: The United Arab Emirates furnished Chinese-made Wing Loong drones, purchased for $2 million each.

Did Russia interfere in Brexit?: An unpublished report roils U.K. politics before election
By Adam Taylor | Published November 05 at 10:14 AM ET | Washington Post | Posted November 5, 2019 |
Nearly 3½ years since Britain voted to leave the European Union, an unpublished report that investigates possible Russian interference in that decision is once again roiling British politics — only a little more than a month before a crucial general election that may decide the country’s future.
On Tuesday, opposition lawmakers took Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government to task for an alleged delay in the publication of the report, which is titled “Russia” and includes evidence from British intelligence agencies about alleged Russian interference in British elections and other possible threats.
“What on earth do they have to hide?” Emily Thornberry, shadow foreign secretary for the opposition party Labour, said in the House of Commons.
Some media outlets have suggested that rather than presenting a damning picture of Kremlin meddling in the Brexit vote, the report tamps down speculation. Citing two sources, BuzzFeed News reported last week that the report found no evidence that Russia interfered in the Brexit referendum or the 2017 general election.
But time is of the essence. Britain is due to vote for a new Parliament on Dec. 12, which means Parliament is scheduled to be dissolved so campaigning can begin — on Tuesday. This means if the report is not released soon, it probably will be delayed until after the British election.
Critics of the government say the delay is inexplicable. The report, produced by Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee, was finalized in March and sent to Johnson’s office on Oct. 17.
Dominic Grieve, a former member of Johnson’s government who is chairman of the committee, told the BBC this week that any arguments not to release the report before the election would be “entirely disingenuous and grossly misleading."
However, government ministers have said the report is simply going through the proper procedure for the release of sensitive information. “It’s been lodged with Number 10 [Downing Street] and it will be published in due course,” Michael Gove, a member of Johnson’s cabinet, told BBC Radio 4′s Today program on Tuesday.
As in the United States, allegations of Russian interference in Britain’s elections have cast a pall over voting results in Britain during the past few years. Britain’s vote to exit the European Union won by a 52-48 percent majority, leading to years of controversy about how to leave the bloc, and even whether it still should.
Kremlin foes say Russian President Vladimir Putin was one of the main benefactors of a decision that threw both Britain and the E.U. into disarray. The Russian government has been accused of acts of aggression in Britain, including the 2018 poisoning of Sergei Skripal, a former spy living in England.
But the British government has pushed back on allegations of Russian interference in the Brexit vote before. In 2017, then-Prime Minister Theresa May said Russian propaganda had “no direct successful influence” on the Brexit vote.
“Nyet,” said Johnson, then the foreign secretary, when asked about possible Russian interference in British elections, adding there was “not a sausage” of evidence. May went on to lose her parliamentary majority in an early election in June 8, 2017, adding further political instability to the country.
The “Russia” report is intended to be a broad-ranging investigation and could include controversial information beyond election interference. The Guardian reported on Friday that Christopher Steele, a former British spy now notorious for his investigation of President Trump’s links to Russia, has given evidence.
“This is disturbing,” Bill Browder, a U.S.-born British financier and activist against Russian influence, wrote on Twitter last Thursday, explaining that he, too, had given evidence and had expected it to be released before the election.

Yemen’s Government Signs Peace Deal With Southern Rebels
The agreement aims to mend a rift between the Saudi-backed government and Emirati-backed rebels so they can focus on fighting the Iran-backed Houthis.
By Reuters | Published Nov. 5, 2019, 2:38 PM ET | New York Times | Posted November 5, 2019 |
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — Yemen’s Saudi-backed government signed an agreement with southern separatists on Tuesday to end a power struggle in southern Yemen.
Saudi Arabia’s crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman, hailed the agreement as a step toward a wider political solution to end the multifaceted conflict.
The standoff had opened a new front in the four-year war and fractured a Saudi-led coalition that has been battling the Houthi movement in northern Yemen. The Iran-backed Houthis ousted the Saudi-backed government from the capital, Sana, in late 2014.
Saudi Arabia’s envoy to Yemen told reporters that the agreement would allow the separatists and other southerners to join a new Yemeni cabinet and would place southern armed forces under the control of the Yemeni government.
“This agreement will open, God willing, broader talks between Yemeni parties to reach a political solution and end the war,” Prince Mohammed said in a televised signing ceremony in Riyadh.
President Trump praised the agreement on Twitter. “A very good start!” he said. “Please all work hard to get a final deal.”
Saudi Arabia has been trying to resolve the standoff in southern Yemen to refocus the coalition’s attention on fighting the Houthis in the north.
The separatist forces, supported by Riyadh’s main coalition partner, the United Arab Emirates, are part of the Sunni Muslim alliance that intervened in Yemen in March 2015 against the Houthis, who hold Sana and most big urban centers.
But the main separatist political organization, the Southern Transitional Council, turned against the Saudi-backed government in August, seizing its interim seat in the southern port of Aden and trying to extend its reach in the south. The council advocates self-rule in the south and a say in Yemen’s future.
The deal calls for the formation of a new cabinet within 30 days that would have equal representation for northerners and southerners. The Southern Transitional Council would also join any political talks to end the war.
To pave the way for the deal, Emirati forces left Aden last month, handing control of the port city and other southern areas to Saudi Arabia.
The United Nations envoy Martin Griffiths, who is trying to restart talks to end a war that has pushed Yemen to the brink of famine, said the deal was an important step in peace efforts.
“Listening to southern stakeholders is important to the political efforts to achieve peace in the country,” he said in a tweet.
The ceremony was attended by the Emirates’ de facto ruler, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed of Abu Dhabi; the Yemeni president, Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi; and the Southern Transitional Council leader, Aidarous al-Zubaidi.
The Aden crisis exposed a rift between Saudi Arabia and the Emirates, which started reducing its presence in Yemen in June as Western allies, including some that provide the coalition with arms and intelligence, pressed for an end to a war that has killed tens of thousands.
April Longley of the International Crisis Group said the agreement could be positive but it was too early to tell.
“In a best-case scenario, it will put the lid on violence and open the way to more inclusive Yemeni negotiations in which southern separatists, who are an important component on the ground, are also present,” she said.

Yemeni government, southern separatists sign peace deal
By Sudarsan Raghavan | Published November 05 at 1:44 PM ET | Washington Post | Posted November 5, 2019 |
CAIRO —
A power struggle between Yemen’s government and southern separatists threatened to fracture a Saudi-led coalition battling northern rebels in Yemen. But on Tuesday, the warring sides signed an agreement in the Saudi capital of Riyadh to end their animosities.
The deal was hailed by the Saudi government and Western powers as paving the way to finding a broader political solution to end Yemen’s nearly five-year-long civil war.
In a televised signing ceremony in Riyadh, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said that “this agreement will open, God willing, broader talks between Yemeni parties to reach a political solution and end the war.”
The U.N. envoy to Yemen, Martin Griffiths, said in a statement that the agreement is “an important step for our collective efforts to advance a peaceful settlement to the conflict in Yemen.”
Some Yemen observers expressed caution, noting that other agreements between warring factions in the country have struggled to take root on the ground.
“The big question is: how easy will it be to implement fully?” Elisabeth Kendall, a Yemen expert at Oxford University, asked in a tweet.
The war in Yemen pits a coalition of regional Sunni Muslim powers, led by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, against Shiite rebels known as the Houthis who are aligned with Iran. The coalition is ostensibly seeking to restore Yemen’s government, which was ousted by the Houthis.
The conflict worsened a humanitarian crisis that has left millions of Yemenis on the brink of famine. More than 100,000 people have died since 2015, including more than 12,000 civilians in direct attacks, according to a report last week by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project, a nonprofit group monitoring war casualties.
Within the coalition, tensions have been growing. Separatists belonging to the Southern Transitional Council have long held grievances against northerners who have dominated Yemen’s government for decades. The southerners seek self-rule as well as a place in a future government.
Backed by the UAE, the separatists are also deeply suspicious of Islamists who hold key positions in the government led by President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi. In August, the separatists seized control of the government’s interim capital in the southern port city of Aden and swiftly started to gain control over other areas of Yemen’s south.
According to Saudi Arabia’s official news agencies, Tuesday’s deal calls for the return of the Hadi government to Aden within seven days. It also calls for the placing of tens of thousands of troops, including separatist forces, under the control of the government. The government will be reshuffled to be made up equally of northerners and southerners.
Kendall said the agreement, if implemented, would reduce imminent risk of a north-south war in Yemen and would mark a new phase of cooperation between the southerners and the Saudi coalition. It would also focus coalition members’ efforts on battling the Houthis — not each other.
Griffiths said in his statement, “Listening to southern stakeholders is important to the political efforts to achieve peace in the country.”

Iran Steps Further From Nuclear Deal With Move on Centrifuges
Since the United States withdrew from the 2015 pact and imposed economic sanctions, Iran has steadily backed away from complying with the agreement.
By Michael Wolgelenter | Published Nov. 5, 2019 Updated 12:42 PM ET | New York Times | Posted Nov. 5, 2019 |
In an effort to counter American sanctions, Iran will pull further away from a landmark nuclear accord signed four years ago, President Hassan Rouhani said on Tuesday, announcing that the country would inject uranium gas into more than 1,000 centrifuges at a highly secure site that Iran initially hid from inspectors.
Injecting the gas into the centrifuges at the Fordow nuclear facility is a step toward uranium enrichment, which in turn moves Iran closer to being able to build a nuclear weapon, though it has denied harboring such ambitions.
President Trump withdrew the United States from the accord last year and imposed economic sanctions in an effort to put pressure on the government in Tehran. In response, Iran has taken several calibrated steps this year to exceed the limits the agreement had put on its nuclear program, while calling on Mr. Trump to reverse himself.
Iran will begin injecting uranium gas into the 1,044 centrifuges at the Fordow nuclear facility, Mr. Rouhani said; the 2015 agreement had restricted the centrifuges to uses other than nuclear enrichment.
The announcement came a day after Iran said it had doubled the number of more advanced centrifuges operating at its main nuclear plant, at Natanz, and planned to install even more efficient centrifuges.
The Iranian president portrayed the announcement on Tuesday — as well as three previous steps it had taken beyond the deal — as reversible, but Iran has made clear that it will only step back if the European signatories to the deal find a way to relieve the economic pressure caused by the American sanctions.
“Resistance lays the ground for negotiation, and negotiation takes advantage of resistance,” Mr. Rouhani said, according to the state-run IRNA news agency.
Iran has recently gone beyond the limitations of the nuclear agreement by increasing its nuclear stockpile, enriching uranium at higher levels, and enlarging the number of centrifuges in use. Fordow was built deep under a mountain outside the holy city of Qum, leaving it impervious to all but the biggest bunker-buster bombs in the United States arsenal, and Iran did not acknowledge its existence openly until 2009. The nuclear agreement allowed the centrifuges at the facility to remain in use on the condition that gas was not injected into them.
Iran might be able to produce enough fuel for a nuclear bomb in under a year, according to some analysts, and it was not immediately clear how the announcement on Tuesday would change the equation.
Sanam Vakil, a research fellow at Chatham House’s Middle East and North Africa program, said that Iranian authorities had remained “relatively calibrated” with the announcement on Tuesday.
“Iran is pushing the red lines, as part of its own maximum pressure campaign to reverse Europe’s position. But Iran could have done more and they’re not,” she said. “This is still one those steps that Iran can reverse.”
Under the 2015 deal, Iran has been allowed to enrich uranium with 5,000 first-generation centrifuges, known as IR-1, at Natanz.
The additional 1,044 centrifuges at Fordow are also IR-1, which are seen by experts as antiquated. The more advanced centrifuges, known as IR-6, refine uranium 10 times faster, according to Iranian authorities, and Iran said on Monday that it had started injecting gas into them at the Natanz plant.
The American sanctions, which Mr. Rouhani described as “wrong, cruel and illegal,” delivered another blow to an already fragile Iranian economy, and the Iranian government has responded with what is effectively a two-track strategy.
The agreement was signed in 2015 by Iran and the United States, along with China, France, Russia, Britain, Germany and the European Union. Iran agreed to reduce the size of its nuclear program in exchange for relief from sanctions.
Mr. Trump, in withdrawing from the pact, reimposed old sanctions, and later added new ones. Iran has argued that it cannot abide by the deal as long as the sanctions are crippling its economy, while at the same time saying it would adhere to the agreement if the European partners to the nuclear agreement could lessen their effect.
The European signatories, which still support the deal, have sought to find ways to address the Iranian concerns but have been unable to come up with alternatives that satisfy Tehran without running afoul of the United States sanctions.Maja Kocijancic, a spokeswoman for the European Commission, the European Union’s executive arm, said the union was “concerned” about the announcement, urging Iran to reverse earlier breaches of the nuclear deal and refrain from any further moves that would undermine it.
Dmitri S. Peskov, the Kremlin spokesman, said that Russia would like to see the nuclear deal remain in force, but he also expressed sympathy for Iran, citing the “unprecedented and illegitimate sanctions” against it.
The United States recently extended a waiver from sanctions for foreign companies, including Russia’s state-run nuclear company, Rosatom, to continue work at the Fordow site, but Moscow does not expect the developments on Tuesday to affect its role there.
The Fordow fuel enrichment plant, unlike the facility at Natanz, it is too small to produce an effective amount of nuclear fuel for civilian purposes, leading the West to conclude that its purpose was to help create a nuclear weapon. Iran has consistently denied that it is seeking to build a bomb.
“We know their sensitivity with regard to Fordow” and the centrifuges, Mr. Rouhani said in a speech that was broadcast live to the nation, the state-run Press TV reported. “But at the same time when they uphold their commitments, we will cut off the gas again.”
Mr. Rouhani, who said the work at Fordow would be carried out under supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog, expressed a willingness to restart nuclear talks if Washington returns to the deal and removes the sanctions.
”We should be able to sell our oil,” Mr. Rouhani said, according to The Associated Press. “We should be able to bring our money” into the country.

At a time when other E.U. members are closing their borders or grudgingly taking their “share” of migrants, Portugal has adopted a “come on down” attitude. Prime minister Antonio Costa, when asked in 2015 to take in 1,600 refugees through the emergency relocation scheme, said his country could support 10,000 of them.

Human rights in Canada are now given legal protections by the dual mechanisms of the Charter and the statutory human rights codes, both federal and provincial. The Charter provides individuals with constitutional rights which governments must respect. The statutory human rights codes provide individuals with rights binding on governments, and also in some cases in the private sector, such as in services, employment, education and housing. The Canadian Human Rights Act applies to the federal government and to activities within federal legislative jurisdiction, and the provincial codes apply to the provincial governments and to activities within provincial jurisdiction. Although human rights codes are statutory in nature, the Supreme Court of Canada has held that they are quasi-constitutional in nature, taking priority over other statutes.
Charter rights are enforced by legal actions in the criminal and civil courts, depending on the context in which a Charter claim arises. Claims under the human rights laws are of a civil nature. They are normally investigated by a human rights commission under the applicable human rights law, and are adjudicated either by a human rights tribunal or by the court of first instance. A ruling on a human rights claim can be appealed through the normal court process, ultimately to the Supreme Court of Canada.
If your international human rights are known to have been violated, the Government of Canada may take steps to pressure the foreign authorities to abide by their international human rights obligations and provide basic minimum standards of protection,” the federal government’s directions read.
“Torture and mistreatment of detainees are egregious violations of human rights,” Babcock adds. EXCEPT IF YOU ARE CANADIAN - THEN THEY JUST KILL YOU!
“Canada takes the allegations of torture and mistreatment extremely seriously.”

I am so sorry as I have been so ill - and could not - continue documenting. the only good news in this is that all costs - incurred by this - ordeal - can be collected from Canada. Justin Trudeau in 2019 will loose his reign in Canada. He is a criminal. A thief.
Dr. Hedy Fry is an acolyte of Trudeau and though her portfolio as a MP - A doctor - who is supposed - to help people like me. She has stolen - as much as Trudeau. all my appeals were forwarded to the RCMP - ? She is a criminal and due to them - i will die unless - Donald Trump - intercedes and rescues me.
I am too weak - to go into the Embassy here - I am trying to get better as I am sure your protocols - will cause me to collapse. I am afraid of dying -
SEEKING IMMEDIATE ASYLUM DUE TO BEING INFECTED WITH A KNOWN MALAYSIAN PLAGUE LIKE VECTOR. BOTH MALAYSIA AND CANADA REFUSED TO GIVE ME - MEDICAL TREATMENT. MALAYSIA AS THAT IS THERE PROTOCOL IF YOU ARE A VISITOR TO THIS COUNTRY AND CANADA DUE TO CANADA'S DEFUNCT CONSULAR INTERPRETATIONS - AND CANADA'S KINGS PREROGATIVE.
AN EDICT THAT IS I DIRECT OPPOSITION TO THE CANADIAN CONSTITUTION AND HAS SENTENCED ME TO DEATH. I had to prepare this document in advance as the situation is so dire that my death if not treated in imminent.
You are now intimately aware of the incredible fuktard that is Justin Trudeau. Canada's worst Prime Minister. He is not a punk kid - he is a dangerous criminal - a thief - and is hell bent on destroying Canada.
He has signed of in allowing me to die, while pampering Canadian ISIS.
He has given 20 Million to Crooked Hilary Clinton - call it Money laundering.
I approached the Clinton foundation and was informed of the conflict of interest. They could not assist me as they were in bed with Justin Trudeau.
Its very complicated, political and I may die. You must save my life. Please.
YOU ARE RIGHT - I CONTACTED ALL HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS AND THEY DID NOTHING. I CONTACTED AMAL - GEORGE CLOONEY AND THE LAWYERS OF DOUGHTY STREET - I AM NOT ARAB ENOUGH - PUT I HAVE PLAYED 1 ON TV. I TRIED PUTIN - BUT AGAIN HAVING PLAYED RUSSIAN ON TV - FILM AND MY KIDS ARE HALF RUSSKIE - NADA.
I CONTACTED THE VATICAN - AS A DEVOTED CATHOLIC - BUT THE IMPOSTOR POPE - FRANCIS - IGNORED MY REQUEST. THE VATICAN OR THE POPE HAS DIRECT INFLUENCE ON THE LAWS USED BY THE HAGUE TO DEFEND HUMAN RIGHTS. SWEDEN SAID - BUT YOU ARE ONLY 1 PERSON APPLYING FROM CANADA. THE REALITY IS THAT THEY ARE OVER 6000 CANADIANS STUCK IN LIMBO WORLDWIDE - BUT I AM DYING FROM THE ASSAULT.
HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH GRANTED THE MAPLE THRONE AND ITS OCCUPANT - UNPRECEDENTED POWERS THAT HAVE PLACED TRUDEAU ABOVE THE LAW. HENCE HE USES OLD LAWS TO KILL ME OFF?
THESE LAWS ARE AGAINST THE CONSTITUTIONS OF CANADA. SO THERE ARE ONLY DEFENDED IN COURT. TRUDEAU WANTS ME DEAD. AS HE KNOWS THAT THESE COURTS ARE EXPENSIVE AND TAKE A LOT OF TIME AND ONLY LEGALLY DEFENDED- ACCESSIBLE THROUGH THE USA - RUSSIA - ITALY.
Much of this document - i have published via wordpress. As i have lived in a state of collapse from this infection JANUARY 13, 2017- i was advised by Malaysians to alert - INTERPOL - SCOTLAND YARD ( THE RCMP) as to my impending death.
