Newark accidentally enters into ‘sister city’ deal with fake city
« on: March 07, 2023, 07:41:55 am »
The city of Newark recently signed a deal to work with a “sister city” overseas.

Mayor Ras Baraka signed the deal in January to work with the United States of Kailasa. The purpose of the deal was to establish an international relationship that would help both territories and their people.

But there was just one problem – the United States of Kailasa does not exist.

Newark officials apparently thought they were getting involved in a cultural and trade deal with one of India’s emerging independent Hindu nations. But in reality, Kailasa is fake.

There's fake, and then there's fictional. Looks like the leaders of Newark can be flummoxed by both.

City of Newark humiliated after signing trade deal and holding sister city ceremony with Hindu nation that doesn't exist

JOSEPH MACKINNON  |  March 14, 2023

The Democrat-run city of Newark, New Jersey, recently formalized its sister city partnership with the Hindu nation of Kailasa. Evidently, city officials did not consult a map before doing so.

The "United States of Kailasa" does not exist. It is the invention of an accused rapist who has been on the run from Indian authorities since 2019 for child abduction and other crimes.

Newark residents have spoken out about Democrat officials' failed foray into foreign policy, questioning whether anyone at City Hall is capable of performing a simple Google search.  .  .

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
