The commander of Russian Radiological Protection Troops
Igor Kirillov said on Monday that footage of the
alleged chemical attack in Douma was deliberately staged and that the
so-called evidence was “fake.”
"The footage made in Eastern Ghouta
has the signs of staged filmmaking. The investigation has shown that the
bodies of the same children have been moved to different apartments
for different footage and have been 'shuffled even within one medical
facility,'" Igor Kirilov said at a press conference.
The military official added that the scripts of the
incident resembled the footage made in Khan Sheikhoun.
"We have succeeded to meet the people
filmed in this clips, who work in this medical facility. They found
themselves on that footage and were very surprised,"
According to Kirilov, one
of the filmed children, who has been reportedly targeted
by alleged chemical weapons, is a child
of one of the officials working in the medical facility and has
not even left the building.
He went on to say that the
information about the alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria
usually emerges amid reports of the Syrian army’s successes, adding
that it was Saturday night when a large number
of militants with members of their families were evacuated
from Douma.

Also on Monday, Alexander Shulgin, the Russian Envoy
to the OPCW said that Russian experts who carried
out the verification of reports on the use of chemical
weapons in Douma had found no witnesses or poisoned persons in the
hospital, as well as remains of chemical weapons at the
alleged attack site. However, they did find participants in the
video’s filming.

Western states have used the footage of the alleged
attack as the main evidence of the Syrian government's involvement
in the incident. The United States, United Kingdom and France launched missile
strikes on a number of targets in Syria at 4 a.m. local
time on Saturday in retaliation for the so-purported the
chemical use.

"...no, low
unemployment is not the cause of inflation..."
In his New York Times article of March
27, 2018 — "Immaculate
inflation strikes again" — Paul Krugman argues that those economists who are
of the opinion that the key factor that causes inflation is increases in money
supply are very wrong.
According
to Krugman, the key factor that sets in motion inflation is unemployment. While a decline in the
unemployment rate is associated with a strengthening in the rate of inflation, an increase in the unemployment rate is associated with a
decline in the rate of inflation.
Note that for Krugman inflation is about general increases in the
prices of goods and services, which is a flawed definition. To ascertain what inflation
is all about we have to establish how this phenomenon emerged. We have to trace
it back to its historical origin.
The
Essence of Inflation
The subject matter
of inflation is "an act of embezzlement." Historically inflation originated when a country’s
ruler such as king would force his citizens to give him all their gold coins
under the pretext that a new gold coin was going to replace the old one.
In the process, the king would falsify the content of the gold coins by mixing
it with some other metal and return diluted gold coins to the citizens.
By means of statistical correlation, Krugman asserts that a fall in the unemployment rate is an important driving
factor of inflation. Hence, on this logic policy makers must carefully
watch the unemployment rate and decide whether it has reached the point where
it could trigger an explosion in the rate of inflation.
Why Low
Unemployment Is Not the Cause of Inflation
But, using
statistical correlations as the basis of a theory means that "anything
goes."
Contrary to Krugman, a low unemployment rate does
not cause a general rise in the prices of goods and services and an economic
overheating labeled as inflation. Regardless of the rate of unemployment, so
long as every increase in expenditure is supported by production, no
"overheating" can actually occur.The overheating emerges
once expenditure rises without being backed up by production, a situation that
emerges when the money stock is increasing.
If Krugman
were to define correctly what inflation is all about, he would quickly realize
that a tighter stance would be required to eliminate various bubble activities
that undermine the process of wealth generation. Contrary
to Krugman, a liquidity trap, which is another way of saying that Fed policies
cannot generate any longer an illusion that these policies can grow an economy,
is the outcome of very loose monetary policy of the US central
bank. The loose monetary stance, which weakens
the process of wealth generation, results in either stagnant or a shrinking
pool of real wealth. Without an expanding pool of real wealth, the
illusion that the central bank can grow an economy is shattered.
