What Do Rising Sovereign Credit Default Swaps Mean? - Alt
Chart - A quote...."Here are the CDS of Greece, Portugal, Spain and the U.S.: -- Rolfe Winkler argues that - in the short-run - the PIIGS countries (Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain) will slash their budgets and get bailed out by the EU. -- Simon Johnson thinks that the weakening Euro caused by the PIIGS' woes will hurt American exports (weaker Euro equals stronger dollar), and could lead to problems for leading global banks. -- Other commentators fear that the PIIGS' crisis has as much potential as a financial "contagion" as the subprime meltdown and the failure of Lehman. -- But for the long-term view, we need a little more perspective. One of the world's leading economic historians."

Wars sending U.S. into ruin - Obama the peace president is fighting battles his country cannot afford  -- Related Article - Quote of the Day...."The U.S. clearly has reached the point of imperial overreach. Military spending and debt-servicing are cannibalizing the U.S. economy, the real basis of its world power. Besides the late U.S.S.R., the U.S. also increasingly resembles the dying British Empire in 1945, crushed by immense debts incurred to wage the Second World War, unable to continue financing or defending the imperium, yet still imbued with imperial pretensions. -- It is increasingly clear the president is not in control of America’s runaway military juggernaut. Sixty years ago, the great President Dwight Eisenhower, whose portrait I keep by my desk, warned Americans to beware of the military-industrial complex. Six decades later, partisans of permanent war and world domination have joined Wall Street’s money lenders to put America into thrall."

Budgets, War and Blind Ambition: The Limited Minds of the American Elite
Related Article - A quote...."The American elite's unbounded, unquestioned, indeed unconscious sense of imperial entitlement and dominance -- based ultimately on war, the threat of war and the profit from war -- is one of the defining characteristics of our age. And if you would like to see a glaring example of this attitude in action, look no further than the front page of Tuesday's New York Times, where one David Sanger gives us his penetrating "news analysis" of the Administration's just-announced $3.8 trillion budget." -- also posted at ICH & CounterPunch

Disinformation Tactics: The Methods Used To Keep You In The Dark
Analysis - An absolute must read - mpg -- A quote....There was a time, not too long ago (relatively speaking), that governments and the groups of elites that controlled them did not find it necessary to conscript themselves into wars of disinformation. Propaganda was relatively straightforward. The lies were much simpler. The control of information flow was easily directed. In fact, during the early Middle-Ages in most European countries commoners were not even allowed to own a Bible, nor was the Bible allowed to be interpreted from Latin to another language, let alone any other tome that might breed “dangerous ideas”. This was due in large part to the established feudal system and its hierarchy of royals and clergy. Rules were enforced with the threat of property confiscation and execution for anyone who strayed from the rigid socio-political structure. Those who had theological, metaphysical, or scientific information outside of the conventional and scripted collective world view were tortured and slaughtered. The elites kept the information to themselves, and removed its remnants from mainstream recognition, sometimes for centuries before it was rediscovered." - also posted at DProgram

It wasn't Muslims who trained their cameras on the WTC prior to the first aircraft impact
A catalog of various items indicating Israel's complicity with 9/11 - mpg - With all the 'chatter' out there, from America's so-called intelligence community, to Zionist shills on FOX and CNN, to Israeli war mongers like their CRIME MINISTER Bennie Nuttyahoo warning of another 'al CIA duh' attack, it might be time to look back at some facts."

Gaza Ground Zero - (YouTube - 9 min 41 sec - Monday, February 08, 2010)
Video - It's a must view video, not only for the pictures of Gaza's suffering, but most importantly for the clear, precise and eloquent language used to describe Israel's barbarity. - mpg. -- A quote...."The sociopathic zionist administration of Israel deliberately devastated the already nearly-incapacitated infrastructure which supports the existence of one-and-a-half-million refugees."

Did You Know? - Alt - (YouTube - 5m 17s - Jan 27, 2010) - By the numbers folks. mpg
Video - A quote...."On December 27, 2008, Israel launched an Assault on the Gaza Strip. The attack of Dec. 27 caused the deadliest one-day death toll in 60 years of conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. Over 3 weeks, 1,417 Palestinians and 13 Israelis were killed"

Alt(1of8) - Alt(2of8) - Alt(3of8) - Alt(4of8) - Alt(5of8) - Alt(6of8) - Alt(7of8) - Alt(8of8)
Videos - A quote...."Australian for Palestine Editor's Comment:  The following 8-part video gives a riveting overview of Zionist history and the catastrophe wrought on the majority Palestinian population in their own homeland for more than 60 years to the present day. The whole calculated Zionist enterprise leaves one gasping at the audacity of its founders to deliberately rid Palestine of its population and perpetually ensnare the Western world in its savage undertaking, demanding nothing less than total commitment to, and veneration for, the state of Israel.  Includes commentary from courageous Israelis like Prof Ilan Pappe and Prof Jeff Halper who constantly challenge the Zionist lies and myths that have so successfully hijacked world media.   It is time for us to speak out in support of the Palestinians as well.  Their situation is continuously deteriorating  as Israel takes more land for new settlers while reducing the Palestinians to a wretched state without homes, water or any kind of security or hope for the future.  Their survival depends on dismantling Israel’s apartheid regime that not only oppresses, divides and discriminates, but also carries out a deliberate policy of ethnic cleansing."

Alex Jones On Russia Today – Fighting Internet Takeover By Pentagon, NSA
RT- Video - Web Censorship Alert - Alt - (RTYuTb - 4m56s - 02/05/10) -- A quote...."The House overwhelmingly passed a bill aimed at building up the United States cyber security army and expertise, amid growing alarm over the countrys vulnerability online. The new law will create a mega-agency to represent the government in negotiations over international standards and orders the White House office of technology to convene a cyber security university-industry task force to guide the direction of future research."

Webster Tarpley On The Draconian Internet Takeover
RT-Video - Web Censorship Alert  - Alt - (RT-YuTb - 4min 37sec -  Feb 05, 2010) -- A quote...."(RussiaToday) – Webster Tarpley on Google’s announcement that it will tighten its relationship with the NSA and how this is another leap forward in the agenda to take over and regulate the free Internet under the cover of fighting foreign cyber spies in China and Russia."

No Direction Home: Pakistan and the Imperial Principle
A quote...."Here's the way the game works. First you get the outright lie, then later, in dribs and drabs, you get a few, grudging crumbs of the truth. -- For example, first you get: "No, there are no Blackwater operatives in Pakistan. None. That's just a conspiracy theory, terrorist propaganda. These kinds of lies just make it harder for us to do good in the region." Then later: "Well, yes, we do have Blackwater operatives in Pakistan. But, uh, we don't actually cut their checks directly in the Pentagon." -- Or what about this more recent example? First: "The United States has no troops in Pakistan. None. We are not going to send troops to Pakistan. That's just wild talk, a conspiracy theory. And it makes it harder for us to do good in the region." -- Then later: "Well, yes, we do have a few troops in Pakistan. All right, a couple hundred. But that's it. We promise. And they're just training their counterparts in Pakistan's military. Oh yeah, and also working alongside paramilitary militias in the frontier regions. And maybe, you know, following up on some of our drone strikes....." -- also posted at Uruknet

U.S. Counterterrorism Officials Insisted that Crotch Bomber Be Let Into Country
Analysis - A quote...."Undersecretary for management at the State Department, Patrick F. Kennedy, told Congress that the State Department wanted to keep crotch bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab out of the U.S., but that intelligence agencies insisted that Abdulmutallab be let into the country. -- Specifically, on January 27th, Kennedy told the House Committee on Homeland Security that intelligence agencies blocked revocation of Abdulmutallab's visa because it would have foiled a "larger investigation" into Al Qaeda."  - also posted at DProgram & InfoWars & GlobalRsrch & ZeroHedge -- For more on this issue see....US-False Flag Ops - Detroit's "Lap-Bomber" & Reficultnias's 9/11 Central

The Stupid Propaganda of Umar Fizzlepants Just Dropped a Couple More IQ Points
A quote...."Ok. This is just getting silly now. -- Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab leapt out of the ranks of anonymity on Christmas eve with a sparkling display of pyrotechnic undies. As it just so happened, his “diaper of doom” show gave all kinds of political cover for the White House authorized attempted assassination of a U.S. citizen, Anwar al-Awlaki. They had missed al-Awlaki but they did succeed in killing 23 children in their bombing of a targeted location." - also posted at PrisonPlanet

Amid media blackout - Congressional hearing reveals US intelligence agencies shielded Flight 253 bomber  -- A quote...."The testimony at the January 27 hearing also blows apart the line promulgated by the establishment media, which universally echoed the administration’s hackneyed phrase to explain the Flight 253 incident—a “failure to connect the dots” on the part of US intelligence agencies. This, of course, is the same phrase used in the official cover-up of the 9/11 attacks. -- Thus, in a January 2 editorial entitled “Why Didn’t They See It?” the New York Times wrote: “No doubt sorting through heaps of information and determining what is urgent or even worthy of follow-up is daunting. Still, it is incredible, and frightening, that the government cannot do at least as good a job at swiftly updating and correlating information as Google.” -- The Times itself, in a subsequent article published January 18, reported the results of its own investigation, based on interviews with senior White House and intelligence officials. The newspaper revealed more “missed clues,” including the fact that intelligence authorities learned in early November from a communications intercept of Al Qaeda followers in Yemen that a man named “Umar Farouk” had volunteered for a coming operation. Despite such evidence of an official cover-up, the Times maintained the line that the near-disaster was the result of mistakes, omissions and an inability to “connect the dots.”  - bold by website editor -- also posted at ICH & GlobalRsrch & DProgram - For more on this issue see....US-False Flag Ops - Detroit's "Lap-Bomber"

Flashback: The 'War on Terror' was going to start in 1993  - Alt - (GglVid 33m38s 3 yrs)
Video - A quote...."What you are about to see has been BANNED, and never to be re-aired or sold. Not even a copy of the transcripts. While the Sheeple were busy with the O.J. Simson Trials, The Cabals were planning the New World Order...  J. A. Calhoun, a Research Consultant was very lucky to record these two programs, one was on British ITN Report, and the other was ABC's Day One back in July 93." -- For more on this issue see....Effective Fed Funds Rate & Total Non-Farm Payrolls 03-24-07 - mpg

A Review of Shahid Alam's "Israeli Exceptionalism" -- Zionism Laid Bare
Book Review - A quote...."The essential point of M. Shahid Alam’s book, "Israeli Exceptionalism: The Destabilizing Logic of Zionism", [GoglBkSrch]* comes clear upon opening the book to the inscription in the frontispiece.  From the Persian poet and philosopher Rumi, the quote reads, “You have the light, but you have no humanity.  Seek humanity, for that is the goal.”  Alam, professor of economics at Northeastern University in Boston and a CounterPunch contributor, follows this with an explicit statement of his aims in the first paragraph of the preface.  Asking and answering the obvious question, “Why is an economist writing a book on the geopolitics of Zionism?” he says that he “could have written a book about the economics of Zionism, the Israeli economy, or the economy of the West Bank and Gaza, but how would any of that have helped me to understand the cold logic and the deep passions that have driven Zionism?” - *links added - also posted at AlethoNews

Mossadegh and Ahmadinejad -- Iran faces almost the same dilemma as 1953
A quote...."There is a stark similarity between some aspects of the political atmosphere dominant over Iran today and those under Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh right before the U.S.-led coup of 1953 that resulted in the overthrow of the legitimate government of Iran and the establishment of a U.S.-puppet government of the Shah. In the period between 1951-53, the U.S. in a close collaboration with the British colonial power through their channels within Iran's military and political apparatus, particularly the Shah’s court, was able to contrive division within the ruling circle and as a result the society at large." - also posted at ICH

Iran’s Neoliberal Green Revolution is Over – Send in the Dogs of War
War Warning - A quote...."There’s a good article on WSWS about a new development within the leadership of Iran’s neoliberal PR campaign aka the ”Green Revolution”. The big three are playing kiss and make up with the legitimate leadership of Iran. Curious timing, wouldn’t you say? This past October, 5  Republican Guard leaders and 37 others were killed by a suicide bomber in southern Iran. The attack has been claimed by the Jundallah terrorists in Iran who are working for “regime change”. Robert Baer gives us a little insight into Jundallah." -- For more on this issue see....US Support of Terror - MEK-PKK-Others - see also the article shown below....

An Ugly Week For The Human Race And Other Living Things
A quote...."January 31, 2010 "Information Clearing House" -- You could almost feel bad for Barack Nothingburger, having to deliver the exquisitely badly timed State of the Union address to the world this week. He, his signature legislative initiative, and his presidency itself were already toast, but he still had to walk in the room and pretend otherwise. -- There could hardly have been a worse week for it. The days preceding his speech just brought one disaster after another for the president. -- But, since he has decided to be part of the problem, while masquerading as its solution, who cares? As long as he continues to adhere to that position, I'd just as soon see his presidency wrecked and his name humiliated anyhow. Considering that treason is a capital offense, I'd say the guy is getting off easy anyhow."

George "W" Bush: The Legacy of an American "Caligula"
Quote of the Day (in bold)....."Ask any American, or, in fact prettymuch anyone around the world what President Obama’s biggest failing is and they will always say the same thing.  Bush is out of prison, proof Obama is a coward or part of the same gang.  All any of us wanted was our country back.  It isn’t like there weren’t crimes any prosecutor could prove.  We spend billions trying to convict children and mental defectives we kidnap off the street of terrorism and we have a gang here, still running their mouths, running free that is responsible for the deaths of 10,000 Americans, destroying the lives of 400,000 more, killing between 1 and 2 million around the world, 98% innocent civilians, and robbing America blind." -- "Simply put, there isn’t a single terrorist act, failure of proper management or oversight, political stumble or strategic blunder done during the Bush years that didn’t generate billions in no bid contracts, oil rights, arms deals or in the backroom restructuring of the American financial system that led to the biggest world financial collapse in history.   Never in history has so much “stupid” been so very good for so very few at the cost of so many."

Auden—The Shield of Achilles
A quote...."Barbed wire enclosed an arbitrary spot
Where bored officials lounged (one cracked a joke)
And sentries sweated for the day was hot:
A crowd of ordinary decent folk
Watched from without and neither moved nor spoke
As three pale figures were led forth and bound
To three posts driven upright in the ground.

The mass and majesty of this world, all
That carries weight and always weighs the same
Lay in the hands of others; they were small
And could not hope for help and no help came:
What their foes like to do was done, their shame
Was all the worst could wish; they lost their pride
And died as men before their bodies died.

Critical Mass: Dem Agenda Opens Right-Wing Doors
Democrats and progressives are crying doom over the party's defeat in Massachusetts. The loss, we're told, is a blow to Barack Obama's political agenda, and so it is. They say it's a shame that yet another rightwing zealot who advocates torture is now in the Senate, and so it is. But it is precisely that agenda that led to the loss, and the shame. It is that agenda which has resurrected a rightwing party that was dead in the water, and empowered its most extreme elements. -- And what is Barack Obama's agenda? What is his political program? It breaks down into three main elements: unwinnable wars, unconscionable bailouts, and unworkable, unwanted health care "reform" that forces people to further enrich some of the most despised conglomerates in the land. It is, in every way, a recipe for moral, economic and political disaster. It is a gigantic anchor tied around the neck of the Democratic Party, and it will drag the whole lumbering wreck back to the bottom in short order." -- For more on this issue see....The Story of A Place Called Mouseland - Alt - (YouTube - 6 min 38 sec - May 05, 2006)  -- Video - A quote...."Tommy Douglas and a vision for Saskatchewan" - posted 07-25-09

Afghanistan is a riddle that remains unsolved: its army and police forces are untrustworthy, its government corrupt, and its tribal leaders unsympathetic to the vagaries of US intervention. Since the Obama surge of 2010, a trillion more dollars have been devoted to Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, and other countries in the vast shatter zone that is Central Asia, without measurable returns; nothing, that is, except the prolongation of America's Great Recession, now entering its tenth year without a sustained recovery in sight." -- also posted at TomDispatch & ICH

Feeds the Rich, Buries the Poor
Quote of the Day...." We need tough hardened individualists who are willing to say enough is enough. Our government has been corrupted by weak men slithering around the halls of Congress soliciting for money, an evil banking cartel creating fiat money, corporate fascists paying off criminals in Washington DC, and the military industrial complex enforcing Washington’s power across the globe. The country longs for an Andrew Jackson or a Dwight Eisenhower. Instead we are stuck with Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. The citizens of the country have chosen a false security in place of liberty and freedom. This country achieved greatness because Americans took chances, had the freedom to succeed or fail, picked themselves up when they failed, and lived their lives within a moral framework of fairness and honesty. That flame of independence and freedom is dying out. Americans no longer believe in shared sacrifice, working hard, honoring a sense of civic duty, morality, or modesty."

Fast Food, Fast Capitalism, Fast Politics
Quote of the Day...."Fast food is a metonym - both a part and a figurative representation of fast capitalism. Fast capitalism is the tendency of capitalism to extract surplus value with as little investment as possible for the greatest possible return, while adding as little to the real economy as possible, often by means of financial speculation and the quickening of production to the point of making next to nothing. It is the necessary consequence of capitalism. Fast capitalism caused the current economic crisis. And fast capitalism leads to fast politics. Fast politics is the promise of quick political fixes to critical socio-political and economic conditions. Obama is the epitome of fast politics."

On the other hand, there was no purge of the corrupt, complicit, and incompetent officials who had made this incident possible. No firings were announced. No heads rolled.

The Lie of Law: Courts Bow to State's Raw Power
A quote...."It is often forgotten how "legal" the Nazi regime in Germany really was. It did not take power in a violent revolution, but entered government through the entirely "legal" procedures of the time. The "legal" vote of the "legally" elected Reichstag gave Adolf Hitler the powers to rule by decree, thus imparting strict "legality" to the actions of his government.  --  Indeed, there were several cases when those who felt the government had overstepped the bounds of law in a particular instance actually took the Nazi regime to court, and won. Why? Because the government was bound by "the rule of law." And the fact is, almost the entire pre-Nazi judicial system of the German state remained intact and operational throughout Hitler's reign. The "rule of law" carried on.  --  Of course, as the Nazi regime plowed forward with its racist, militarist, imperialist agenda, this "rule of law" became increasingly elastic, countenancing a range of actions and policies that would have been considered heinous atrocities only a few years before. This trend was greatly accelerated after the Regime -- claiming "self-defense" following an alleged "invasion" by a small band of raiders -- launched a war which soon engulfed the world." -- also posted at OpEdNews

The Coming Fury Of An Angry America
Some quotes...."In the summer of 1914, America was an outlier in a world of teetering monarchies, festering colonial empires, and rancid landed aristocracies. While the rest of the world fed its gold and its young to the insatiable maw of industrial war, Americans were building a dream from limitless resources and the economic opportunities of a conflict that left America unspoiled and prosperous. By the close of hostilities in 1945, with the capital of the planet spent and exhausted, America burst from the ruins to begin the greatest run of prosperity and innovation of all time. The American middle class exploded, living the dream so thoughtfully given to them over a generation of global war."  ---  "In 1971, American imports exceeded exports for the first time in modern history, by 2.6 billion dollars. At a time when a billion was a lot, America began paying to simply exist. Gross Public Debt had grown from 43 billion in 1940, to 381 billion by 1970. Within a single generation - the age of narcissism, the computer age, the age of globalization - the baby boomers of the American middle class had tilted the entire planets resources towards an unsustainable consumer culture. No longer living the dream, those alive just moments before Lehman Brothers listed over, rolled under, and disappeared below the waves of history, were fighting simply to keep the stuff they had.". -- also posted at ICH

The Prestige – Part 1: The Pledge
A quote...."At the start of the previous decade, the story began to take shape; the Pledge had begun.  The history of The New American Century was about to be dominated by a fanatical and illusive band of traveling demons; al Qaeda.  They hated us for our freedom we were told; they struck at us from hiding; they were and are an ever shifting, ever-changing enemy of our ideology, hell-bent on creating terror where-ever they go, simply for terror’s sake.  Even the most outspoken critic of US foreign policy dares not undermine the foundations of the Pledge.  Like a magician who picks a ringer out of the audience, like David Blaine and his obviously well-rehearsed gags with a “random” member of the crowd, the real audience must take the Pledge at his word else the entire illusion crumbles like a house of cards.

You can’t ask for better timing than that."

The Prestige – Part 3:The Prestige
A quote...."In 1996, a self-proclaimed terrorist and thief fled the reach of Osama bin Laden and ran right into the outstretched arms of the FBI, where he probably couldn’t have felt more at home.  He had stolen money from bin Laden, some one hundred thousand dollars it is said, and so the FBI offered him shelter, money, and new life.  For three years the American tax-payers shelled out nearly one million U.S. dollars to protect the thief in hiding. It was then, under the tutelage of FBI agent Jack Cloonan, that the very mythology of Al Qaeda was born. It was then that the craft of the first part of the Grand Illusion took shape."

Pinpointing a CIA deputy unit chief, Tom Wilshire, and his manager, Richard Blee, as being primarily responsible for many of the intelligence failures, this account analyzes the circumstances in which critical intelligence information was kept from FBI investigators in the wider context of the CIA’s operations against al-Qaeda, concluding that the information was intentionally omitted in order to allow an al-Qaeda attack to go forward against the United States."

Blowback On the Border: The Purpose of the Terror War System
A quote...."The Terror War is not an event, or a campaign, or even a crusade; it is a system. Its purpose is not to eliminate "terrorism" (however this infinitely elastic term is defined) but to perpetuate itself, to do what it does: make war. This system can be immensely rewarding, in many different ways, for those who operate or assist it, whether in government, media, academia, or business. This too is a self-sustaining dynamic, a feedback loop that gives money, power and attention to those who serve the system; this elevated position then allows them to accrue even more money, power and attention, until in the end -- as we can plainly see today -- any alternative voices and viewpoints are relegated to the margins. They are "unserious." They are unimportant. They are not allowed to penetrate or alter the operations of the system." - bold/underline by website editor

Understanding the 'Unserious Empire'
A quote...."To explain not one, but two decades of American war, conducted aggressively since the collapse of the USSR by four different American presidents, two Republicans and two Democrats, punctuated for the mass public with spikes of "war" activity and intelligence alarms, the most workable perspective is gained by simply following the money. Some argue that Iraq and Afghanistan weren’t about oil and gas because they weren’t about owning real estate and doing the hard work of getting oil out of the ground, or actually building wealth through transportation links and pipeline construction. Instead, our wars and ongoing occupations have produced corruption and waste rather than real capital development and human productivity in the distant warzones. Regular people who work honestly for a living, who understand wealth creation on a human scale – and consequently are not overly interested in debt/equity swaps and credit default insurance used by politically connected banks and investment firms – regular people don’t intuitively see how waste, corruption and chaos can be a good thing.  ---   Murder, too, for that matter – it’s all good and useful if it creates demand for government subsidy of, and government spending on, things our war-fighting, intelligence, security and nation-building industries produce." - bold/underline by website editor

However, it has come almost exclusively to refer to any fringe theory which explains a historical or current event as the result of a secret plot by conspirators of almost superhuman power and cunning.  To conspire means “to join in a secret agreement to do an unlawful or wrongful act or to use such means to accomplish a lawful end.”  The term “conspiracy theory” is frequently used by scholars and in popular culture to identify secret military, banking, or political actions aimed at stealing power, money, or freedom, from “the people”. -- To many, conspiracy theories are just human nature.  Not all people in this world are honest, hard working and forthcoming about their intentions.  Certainly we can all agree on this.  So how did the term “conspiracy theory” get grouped in with fiction, fantasy and folklore?"

Unlike any other film ever produced on the conflict -- 'Occupation 101' presents a comprehensive analysis of the facts and hidden truths surrounding the never ending controversy and dispels many of its long-perceived myths and misconceptions. -- The film also details life under Israeli military rule, the role of the United States in the conflict, and the major obstacles that stand in the way of a lasting and viable peace. The roots of the conflict are explained through first-hand on-the-ground experiences from leading Middle East scholars, peace activists, journalists, religious leaders and humanitarian workers whose voices have too often been suppressed in American media outlets."

Taking only basic equipment they crossed the border into Gaza where the full horror of the attacks became apparent. This film remarkably shot in under 48 hours features interviews with the Samoudi family who lost 48 members of their family after Israel ordered them into a residential house which was then shelled. The lads also traveled to Gaza city and interviewed Dr Abu Shaban who is the Head of Burns and Plastic Surgery at the Shifa Hospital which saw the arrival of thousands of casualties during the attack. He gives a compelling insight into Israel’s actions during the attack on Gaza and raises the question that banned and experimental weapons were tested on the Gazan civilian population."

More on the US-NRE's attempted "lap-bomber" false-flag fiasco

The Strange Case of Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab
A quote...."Despite some $40 billion dollars spent by the American people on airline security since 2001, allegedly to thwart attacks on the Heimat, the botched attempt by Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab to bring down Northwest Airlines Flight 253 over Detroit on Christmas Day was foiled, not by a bloated counterterrorist bureaucracy, but by the passengers themselves. -- Talk about validating that old Wobbly slogan: Direct action gets the goods! -- And yet, the closer one looks at the available evidence surrounding the strange case of Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, the more sinister alleged "intelligence failures" become. As this story unfolds it is becoming abundantly clear that U.S. security officials had far more information on the would-be lap bomber than we've been told." -- also posted at GlobalRsrch

Questions mount over attempt to bomb Detroit-bound jetliner
A quote...."The official discussion repeats the same rhetorical trope employed to cover up the role of US intelligence agencies before the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001—that they failed to “connect the dots.” This metaphor suggests a highly abstruse process in which many small details, each seemingly innocent in itself, are correlated through sophisticated analysis by experts familiar with the patterns of terrorist operations. -- No such operation was required to detect the Northwest Airlines bomb plot. The facts listed above were a series of fire alarms, each sufficient in itself to give the alert. To stop Abdulmuttalab from boarding the US-bound jetliner was a routine police matter, one that would ordinarily be executed without difficulty by the government of any middle-sized country, let alone by the most powerful military/intelligence apparatus on the planet."

Evidence Mounts for US Complicity in Terrorism: Mutallab's father is no ordinary 'banker'
A quote...."When nothing adds up, its time we starting looking at what we know. Our recent terrorist, now dubbed "the crotch bomber" is another dupe. He could have been working for anyone, drugged, brainwashed or simply influenced, maybe by crazy Arabs, maybe by the Mossad, maybe by the CIA. We only know the game is falling apart. -- We do know a couple of things. Dad, back in Nigeria, ran the national arms industry (DICON) in partnership with Israel, in particular, the Mossad. He was in daily contact with them. They run everything in Nigeria, from arms production to counter-terrorism. Though Islamic, Muttalab was a close associate of Israel. He has been misrepresented. His "banking" is a cover. Next, what do we know about the two Al Qaeda leaders Bush had released, the ones who planned this? - According to ABC news, the Al Qaeda leaders running the insurgency in Yemen were released from Guantanamo, although two of the highest ranking known terrorists there, without trial." -- also posted at SOTT & DProgram & InfoWarsIreland & PakistanDaily

The Underwear Bomber - Crushing Freedom With Phony Arab Terrorism

ICTS of course! the same Israeli owned security company that somehow managed to let the shoe bomber on his Miami flight in 2001 and several of those mythical hijackers who allegedly flew out of Boston's Logan airport on 9/11. It is also useful to remember that the shoe bomber was cleared through ICTS and El Al security at Amsterdam airport on a flight to Tel Aviv in July 2001 for what was apparently an all-expenses paid week-long trip to the Israeli city. What precisely he did there remains a mystery."

Who Let Security Fail at Schiphol? ICTS Conspiracy
A quote...."The elder Mutallab is a frequent visitor to the United States and he is married to a Yemeni woman. -- For a number of years, passengers at Schiphol flying to the United States have been subjected to intense grilling by security personnel linked to an Israeli firm. -- In fact, these procedures were in effect even prior to the 9/11 attacks and many were put into place after the Pan Am 103 bombing in December 1998."

World’s Sole Military Superpower’s 2 Million-Troop, $1 Trillion Wars
Quote of the Day...."In his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech on December 10 the president of the United States appropriated for his country the title of “the world’s sole military superpower” and for himself “the Commander-in-Chief of the military of a nation in the midst of two wars.” -- This may well have been the first time that an American – and of course any – head of state in history boasted of his nation being the only uncontested military power on the planet and unquestionably the only time a Nobel Peace Prize recipient identified himself as presiding over not only a war but two wars simultaneously." - It's only "two" wars if you treat the US-NRE's occupation of both Afghanistan and Pakistan (Afpak) as one war.  But lets face facts folks, Bombs Away O-Bomb-a is HELL-BENT on starting two more occupations in both Yemen and Iran. - mpg

Regarding the nine articles shown above -- Just think about it this way folks, for every dollar the US-NRE / Military Industrial Complex gives to support terrorist groups throughout the Middle East, it generates for itself about two hundred dollars in funding for the "war on terror".  That's a pretty good rate of return, and a very well designed, highly profitable business model. - mpg - posted 03-03-09

Boy watches US forces shoot father in head
A quote...."Recent reports indicate that a new stage may have been reached in the war in Afghanistan. Secret operations of CIA and special forces appear to have stepped up their infamous night raids, which have induced fear in much of the local population. -- We saw in a blog post a few weeks ago that up to 15 civilians in Laghman were killed in a ground forces operation apparently carried out under NATO command. NATO itself, after initial denials, appeared to acknowledge civilian casualties, but was characteristically vague about it. -- Now, according to the article below, it seems that the attack-cum-massacre was carried out at night and, according to locals, perpetrated by US special forces on the ground. (The Washington Post, however, mistakenly reported as late as Dec 30 that the attack was an airstrike.)" -- also posted at Uruknet

Welcome to Orwell’s World 2010
A quote...."December 30, 2009 - "Information Clearing House" -- In Nineteen Eighty-Four, George Orwell described a superstate called Oceania, whose language of war inverted lies that “passed into history and became truth. ‘Who controls the past’, ran the Party slogan, ‘controls the future: who controls the present controls the past’.” -- Barack Obama is the leader of a contemporary Oceania. In two speeches at the close of the decade, the Nobel Peace Prize winner affirmed that peace was no longer peace, but rather a permanent war that “extends well beyond Afghanistan and Pakistan” to “disorderly regions and diffuse enemies”. He called this “global security” and invited our gratitude. To the people of Afghanistan, which America has invaded and occupied, he said wittily: “We have no interest in occupying your country.”

New Year's Resolution: Don't Apologize for Democrats
A quote...."For the new year, let's resolve: Don't defend Democrats when they don't deserve defending. And that certainly includes President Obama. -- Let's further resolve: Put principles above party and never lose our voice on human rights and social justice. -- When we mute ourselves as a Democratic president pursues corporatist or militarist policies, we only encourage such policies. -- If it was wrong for Bush to bail out Wall Street with virtually no controls, then it's wrong for Obama. If indefinite "preventative detention" was wrong under Bush, then it's wrong under Obama. If military occupation and deepening troop deployments were wrong under Bush, then they're wrong under Obama." -- also posted at ICH

The Northwest Flight 253 intelligence failure: Negligence or conspiracy?
Quote of the Day....."Eight years after 9/11, with all of the still unanswered questions surrounding the attacks that were used to justify an explosion of American militarism, the attempt to gloss over an event that nearly cost the lives of 300 people with this hackneyed metaphor does not hold water. -- The general outlines of the Northwest bombing attempt and the 9/11 attacks are startlingly similar. One might even say that what is involved is a modus operandi. In both cases, those alleged to have carried out the actions had been the subject of US intelligence investigations and surveillance and had been allowed to enter the country and board flights under conditions that would normally have set off multiple security alarms. -- Both then and now, the government and the media expect the public to accept that all that was involved was mistakes."

Is the Detroit Nigerian "Terrorist" Another Patsy?
A quote...."What does the hapless Nigerian mope yanked off a plane in Detroit Christmas Day for setting his lap on fire have in common with color-coded terror alerts, with the shoeless, homeless Miami Haitians convicted of trying to bring down the Sears Tower, or with the 2004 pre-election videos allegedly dropped by Osama Bin Laden? Easy. All have been useful in whipping up public fear of Muslim-inspired “terrorism” and each and every one plugs neatly and sweetly into the meta-narratives that justify increasing the power of US police and intelligence establishments and the further militarization of foreign policy." -- For more on the two articles shown above see....US-False Flag Ops - Detroit's "Lap-Bomber"

As US power dwindles, Middle East politics will continue to shift
A quote...."I believe the Middle East is experiencing broad strategic political realignments, with insurgent forces gaining in strength, and entrenched forces entering a period of stagnation. Unsurprisingly, the regional flux is being driven by the decline of empire, and the attendant regional state opportunism. If current trends continue, the next decade will likely see a regionally diminished Egypt, an increasingly isolated Israel, and eventually less American interventionism and sponsorship. Concurrently, Syrian power and prestige will increase, Lebanon will consolidate Hezbollah’s moral authority, and Turkey will increasingly emphasize its Eastern and Islamic roots to enhance its regional role. What happens in Iran depends in large part on whether America and Israel attack, I believe. The assumption that the American empire is in decline is crucial to this analysis, so it’s worth spending time explaining its basis."

A quote...."On December 27 2008 Israel launched a murderous air assault against 1.5 million men, women and children in the most overcrowded piece of land on Earth - the Gaza Strip. -- Starved, besieged, yet unbowed, they could do nothing except endure as the bombs and missiles rained down, targeting hospitals, schools, civic buildings, homes, police stations and even UN compounds where people had sought sanctuary. -- Israel's bombs sought and found their victims, incinerating and blowing to smithereens young and old alike, while Tel Aviv attempted to convince the world that every effort was being made to avoid civilian casualties in what it described as a military operation to root out terrorism and provide security for its citizens. -- Yet as Albert Camus once warned, the welfare of the people has always been the alibi of tyrants." -- also posted at Uruknet

So Why Did President Obama Try to Kill a Witness in Yemen
A quote...."Up until now, there has only been speculation as to who was the real target in the most recent U.S. backed attack in Yemen that killed a reported 34 people.  But today it is being reported that the target was in fact, Anwar al-Awlaki, the controversial cleric who communicated with Ft. Hood shooting suspect Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan.  This most recent attack comes on the heels of another one, just a week ago, in which 17 women and 23 children were slaughtered in order to protect the investments of “U.S. assets” in Yemen (namely, Kuwait Energy and the IMF and World Bank).  As bad as that was, Obama’s killing of innocent civilians to protect pipelines and IMF’s investors, this most recent assassination attempt may be even more troubling."

Top Ten Worst Things about the Bush Decade; Or, the Rise of the New Oligarchs
A quote...."By spring of 2000, Texas governor George W. Bush was wrapping up the Republican nomination for president, and he went on to dominate the rest of the decade. If Dickens proclaimed of the 1790s revolutionary era in France that it was the best of times and the worst of times, the reactionary Bush era was just the worst of times. I declare it the decade of the American oligarchs. Just as the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Soviet Union allowed the emergence of a class of lawless 'Oligarchs' in Russia, so Neoliberal tax policies and deregulation produced American equivalents. (For more on the analogy, see  Michael Hudson.) We have always had robber barons in American politics, but the Neoliberal moment created a new social class." -- also posted at ICH

But the prison is not being closed. It is being moved to Illinois, if the Republicans permit. -- In truth, Obama has handed his supporters another defeat. Closing Guantanamo meant ceasing to hold people in violation of our legal principles of habeas corpus and due process and ceasing to torture them in violation of US and international laws. -- All Obama would be doing would be moving 100 people, against whom the US government is unable to bring a case, from the prison in Guantanamo to a prison in Thomson, Illinois." -- also posted at DProgram & AlethoNews

While You Were Sleeping… The Economy Collapsed
Charts - A quote...."One of the most powerful forces in human psychology is the force of habit. Consistency, apathetic comfort, ties men to the ocean bottom to squeeze every ounce of oxygen from their last breath until it is gone, and we wake up at 50 or 60, only realizing then that we have done the same things and thought the same thoughts for decades without err. Repetition makes us easy to startle and easy to control. Any sudden break in daily routine can cause most people to freeze; animals gripped with terror at the very possibility of necessary individual action or adaptation. -- This same repetition induces a type of “sleepwalk” in the average person, a zombie-like reanimation of brain functions that shriveled up and died years before, giving the impression of “life,” but in reality, it is merely a life on autopilot. -- This is what makes catastrophes so catastrophic. It is not always the events themselves that reap such destruction, but people’s delayed reactions and dulled senses. The more ignorant the populace, the more magnified and painful such events become. Our lack of knowledge and reasonable action sets our own house ablaze, brings economies to ruin, and murders civilizations. Others may tip the problems into motion, but in the end, all of us, each and every individual, is responsible for the final result." - also posted at DProgram

`A Visit from St. Obama'
A quote...."Twas the night before Christmas and all through the land
Not a creature was stirring in Afghanistan.
The bedrooms were bunkered with piles of hard stones
To protect from attacks by the Predator drones.
The children were huddled, afraid, in their beds
While visions of night raiders danced in their heads.

Mama doffed her hijab and I doffed my hat
And we both settled down for a rest and a chat
When out in the yard their arose such a clatter,
I sprang to the door to see what was the matter.
Away to the entrance I ran ‘cross the floor,
Pulled on the handle and opened the door.

The moon hadn’t risen but up in the air
A chopper was shining a light. Such a glare!
And what to my wondering eyes did appear
But a whole gang of men, armed and dressed in black gear....."

And yet the Secret Service's request came to nothing." - - also posted at DProgram - For more on this issue see....9/11-NORAD

The “Post-9/11 World” Is A Detriment To Humanity
A quote...."The event that created the “Post-9/11 World” were the attacks of September 11th, 2001. -- Every effort has been made by the American Government to conceal the truth about what happened that day. The “Joint Congressional Inquiry” was “limited in scope” thanks to the efforts of George W. Bush, and Dick Cheney. The “PENTTBOM” investigation failed to address a number of the families’ questions. The “9/11 Commission” was compromised from beginning to end, and was headed by Philip Zelikow, someone the families called for the resignation of during the 9/11 Commission, someone who re-wrote the 9/11 Report to be more favorable of his good friend Condoleezza Rice, someone that tried to insert a false link into the 9/11 Report between Iraq and 9/11, someone that shied people away from the NSA, someone that shied people away from Saudi Arabia’s possible involvement in the attacks, someone that is alleged to have taken the direction of Karl Rove, someone who wrote the preemptive war strategy mentioned above, someone who should never have been anywhere near the 9/11 Commission."

David Ray Griffin on the 9/11 Cell Phone Calls: Exclusive CBC Interview
Alt - (YuTb - 6m57s - 12/18/09) -- Video - A quote...."Excellent interview with Dr. Griffin. He especially notes how the FBI itself admits that there was only one connection attempt made from Barbara Olson, which lasted "zero seconds," not to mention that Ted kept changing his story, first saying she called him on a seatback phone, then cell phone, then seatback again. And given that out of all the supposed 9/11 phone calls, Olson is the only passenger to mention "boxcutters," the FBI's admission is an intriguing one indeed." - For more on this issue see....9/11-NORAD

911-War Promises - Alt - (YouTube - 1 hr 15 min 43 sec - November 27, 2009)
Video - A quote...."Millions of people believe that evidence proves that Western intelligence services organized the hideous attacks on New York and Washington on 11 September 2001. Even the mainstream media have stopped defending the official version and now prefer to ignore the issue altogether. -- Distrust in Western governments grows as the wars of aggression waged by the USA and NATO continue to be justified with these “false flag” operations. Ever harsher domestic laws are being passed to crush all outrage and resistance in Western populations; at the end of the day they aim to unleash the German military on German civilians, instead of allowing morality and ethics to flow into day-by-day policy-making." -- For more on this issue see.....Reficultnias's 9/11 Central

Viva Palestina Convoy Arriving in Turkey - Alt - (YuTb - 6m26s - Dec 19, 2009)

Interviews with the drivers and members of the Convoy. -- The Viva Palestina Convoy departed for Gaza from London on December 6: http://vivapalestina.org  -- Get News & Track the Convoy here: http://readingpsc.org.uk/convoy/  -- * This is an edited version of the full video that insaniyardim2003 posted at: http://www.dailymotion.com/insaniyard...*" 

Sir Geoffrey Bindman: Livni has no right to claim immunity from prosecution
A quote...."It is not at all surprising that the Israeli government is outraged at the attempt – initially successful – to obtain an arrest warrant in Britain against their former foreign minister Tzipi Livni. But their characterisation of it as a "diplomatic offence" is wide of the mark. Those who come to Britain are subject to its laws. -- It is necessary to step back from the particular case and look at the broader picture. War crimes and crimes against humanity are international crimes transcending national boundaries. Universal jurisdiction to put those accused of them on trial is a logical development of that recognition. Such crimes are unlikely to be redressed in the country where the perpetrators hold political power. If they are not, they can only be adjudicated in courts of another state, or in an international court or tribunal."

Freedom Rider: “War is Peace” Prize
A quote...."The Norwegian Nobel Committee, who award the Nobel Peace Prize, created world wide feelings of dismay, shock and anger from the moment they announced that Barack Obama would be the 2009 honoree. How could the man who is waging two wars, who is responsible for the largest military budget in world history, be given the same honor that went to luminaries such as Martin Luther King, who fought tirelessly against militarism? -- Barack Obama’s actual speech at the ceremony was worse, much worse than anything that could have been imagined when this honor was announced two months ago. His words were so horrific, so bereft of any of the ideals of peace makers, that he single handedly made the once prestigious Nobel Peace Prize worthless. If the winner speaks about the urgent need for military action and denigrates the very need for peace, then surely the wrong person was honored." -- bold by website editor

This article is Part 3 in the Series, "The Origins of World War III." - at Global Research
A quote...."In Part-1 and Part-2 of this series, I have analyzed US and NATO geopolitical strategy since the fall of the Soviet Union, in expanding the American empire and preventing the rise of new powers, containing Russia and China. This Part examines the implications of this strategy in recent years; following the emergence of a New Cold War, as well as analyzing the war in Georgia, the attempts and methods of regime change in Iran, the coup in Honduras, the expansion of the Afghan-Pakistan war theatre, and spread of conflict in Central Africa. These processes of a New Cold War and major regional wars and conflicts take the world closer to a New World War. Peace can only be possible if the tools and engines of empires are dismantled."

Keith Olbermann: Special Comment - Ruined Senate Bill Unsupportable
Video - More on Obama's non-health no-care bill  - Alt/Transcpt - Alt/Vid - (MSNBC Vid - 11 min 58 sec - Dec . 16, 2009) -- Except for Mr. Olbermann's belief that there's the slightest bit of difference between the Demo or Repub parts of the DemoRepub party, and his naive appeal to Obama's "better nature" (Bombs-Away doesn't have one), this is one outstanding video. - mpg

Salon.com’s Glenn Greenwald: Current Health Reform Bill Does More Harm Than Good -
Video - Alt - (3m41s) -- More on Obama's non-health no-care bill  -- A quote...."I don’t think this has anything to do with “anger” or anything that Jay Rockefeller just said. I think the argument of why the bill should be defeated as Dr. Dean is expressing and others is not that “well because we didn’t get everything we wanted, sink the bill”. That’s not it. The argument is much more substantive than that. The argument is that this bill does more harm than good from the perspective of healthcare policy and how our government works. Essentially it requires by force of law, 10s of millions of people who don’t want to be customers of the private insurance industry to become customers of that industry." -- *Glenn Greenwald*

White House as helpless victim on healthcare
More on Obama's non-health no-care bill -- Two Quotes of the Day...."....contrary to Obama's occasional public statements in support of a public option, the White House clearly intended from the start that the final health care reform bill would contain no such provision and was actively and privately participating in efforts to shape a final bill without it.  From the start, assuaging the health insurance and pharmaceutical industries was a central preoccupation of the White House...."  ---  "The evidence was overwhelming from the start that the White House was not only indifferent, but opposed, to the provisions most important to progressives.  The administration is getting the bill which they, more or less, wanted from the start -- the one that is a huge boon to the health insurance and pharmaceutical industry." -- *Glenn Greenwald*

Power and Theft - The Israeli Stranglehold
A quote...."Settlers attack West Bank mosque and burn holy Muslim books” was a London Times headline on December 11, 2009. -- These attacks, together with the demolition of Palestinian homes, the uprooting of Palestinians’ olive groves, the innumerable checkpoints that prevent Palestinians from accessing schools, work, and medical care, the Israeli Wall that denies Palestinians access to the land stolen from them, and the isolation and blockade of the Gaza Ghetto, are part of the Israeli government’s policy of genocide for the Palestinians." -- also posted at Aussies4Palestine

Palestinian Christians urge Israel isolation
Boycott, Divest and Sanction - Because it's the Christian thing to do. - mpg -- A quote...."BETHLEHEM — Christian religious and community leaders in occupied Palestine have launched an ecumenical campaign aimed at enlisting Christians around the world to help end the Israeli military occupation. “This document is the Christian Palestinians’ word to the world about what is happening in Palestine,” says the 15-page document."

“We, Palestinian Christians, declare in this historic document that the military occupation of our land is a sin against God and humanity and that any theology that legitimizes the occupation is far from Christian teachings because true Christian theology is a theology of love and solidarity with the oppressed and a call to justice and equality among peoples.” -- *Palestinian Christians*

Britain’s Foreign Office wimps surrender to the thugs
A quote...."The British public must be wondering what has happened to the nation’s backbone – and its moral compass - when they see news items like these."

"British Foreign Secretary David Miliband yesterday apologized to MK Tzipi Livni and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman for the arrest warrant issued against Livni in London earlier this week. He also promised Lieberman to begin working immediately to change the UK laws that enable the issue of arrest warrants against Israeli officials accused of war crimes."

"Who does this foreign secretary think he is, apologising in our name for the operation of British law, especially when the warrant was issued to answer well-founded charges of war crimes? -- Livni claims it was not personal. "It’s about the entire State of Israel and our ability to go on working together against common threats." -- What common threats? We have nothing in common. The threats Israel faces are caused by its racist expansion, land theft, general lawlessness and hateful attitude towards its neighbours, and by the lethal threat Israel itself presents to others in the region. Our government puts us in harm’s way by associating so closely with the regime and continually taking its side." - bold by website editor -- also posted at AlethoNews

The Peace Prize goes to the commander-in-chief of invading armies in Afghanistan & Iraq.
A quote...."Is this the best the world can deliver? -- A hypocrite who unsuccessfully tries to justify war and aggression on the starved and brutalized people of Iraq and Afghanistan? -- In a silent America, Obama is unchallenged and does all he can to strengthen U.S. ties with Israel (as the rest of the world contemplates boycotts of various kinds to deter Israel from committing more crimes). A year into his presidency, not only are the wars against the people of Iraq and Afghanistan going strong, but Obama is sending 30,000 more soldiers to Afghanistan. -- The American brand of “peace” has surely made a mockery of the word. No one in the Middle East is foolish enough to believe, for a second, that America wants “peace” when all that America, and her handsome new president, does is to reinforce its devastating military presence in countries where they are not welcomed. -- An Iraqi mother who lost every child she had (4 boys) as a result of the U.S. invasion in 2003 said: “don’t utter that word, it has brought us nothing but death and destruction”. -- She was referring to the word “peace”." -- also posted at Creative-i

Bilin activist: "Words are not enough"
A quote...."One night, the Israeli army surrounded my home, and took my father from his bed to come and knock on my door. They told him that because I was a child, they just wanted to speak to me for five minutes. Some of the soldiers were dressed in civilian clothes, and they grabbed me as soon as I opened the door. -- That five minutes became two years, in the worst place in the world -- Naqab prison [in the Negev desert]. I spent the first 20 days in solitary confinement. I was kept in a room I could only stand up in, with terrible food and no showers, and during the night in a room I could lie down in but had a hole in the roof, at a time when it was raining and snowing. Every day the soldiers were beating me, and every night they would bang on the door so that I couldn't sleep. The whole time, they were also asking me if I had thrown stones and what political party I belonged to, so in the end I admitted that I had, at some point, thrown stones. By the end of those 20 days, I smelled like an animal." -- also posted at AlethoNews & WarInIraq

Another Childhood Nakba Memory
A quote...."I remember it was one Sunday afternoon, sometime around one or two o'clock, when my father barged running into the house shouting "we have to leave, we have to leave". His face was all red; his eyes shined with piercing outrage, uncertainty and incredulity. -- I remember it was Sunday because my mother was fixing our special Sunday lunch that included meat –the only day in the week where we had a little bit of meat. Sundays were the only days in the week where the butchers would butcher fresh goat meat. I remember my mother had prepared a big kettle of “tabeekh” (stew of beans, tomato sauce and a bit of meat) with rice on the side. My village was mostly Christian with some Druze. We were a farming community relying, primarily, on olives and oil, without much cash." -- also posted at Uruknet

America's Race to the Bottom
A quote...."In the past three decades, the income of the richest Americans quadrupled, while the income of the lowest ninety percent actually fell. Today, the median wage is lower than it was in the 1970s, even though productivity has grown by nearly fifty percent. -- All told, from the 1930s through the 1970s, America produced the biggest and richest middle class in human history. But then many of us made the mistake - as I did - of assuming that this had become, based on a solid society compact, the default status quo for the foreseeable future. -- In fact, it was instead an aberration. And it was contingent." -- also posted at SmrkngChimp

Normalising the Crime of the Century
A quote...."The purpose of the Chilcot inquiry is to normalise an epic crime by providing enough of a theatre of guilt to satisfy the media so that the only issue that matters, that of prosecution, is never raised. When he appears in January, Blair will play this part to odious perfection, dutifully absorbing the hisses and boos. All “inquiries” into state crimes are neutered in this way. In 1996, Lord Justice Scott’s arms-to-Iraq report obfuscated the crimes his investigations and voluminous evidence had revealed." -- also posted at DProgram & CommonDreams & TheNwStsmn

Tread Carefully Congressmen… The Terrorists Are Still Out There
A quote...."It is said that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.  Dennis Kucinich would be wise to remember that. -- The congressman from Ohio is valiantly working to attempt to use the war powers act to end the illegal occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan.- [YuTb]  He is going to submit two resolutions as soon as congress comes back in January that will set this plan of his into motion.  In all likelihood, the Rahm Emanuel/Hillary Clinton dominated DLCers of the congress will strike them both down with little fanfare from the corporate media.  However, like his impeachment resolution in 2007, there is a possibility that the antiwar faction of the right (yes, it’s small but it does exist) and some of the most exposed democrats facing re-election next year, may just be enough to garner Kucinich’s bills some traction. If he hooks up with the Ron Paul movement in the House, which has gained a considerable measure of strength with his “Audit the Fed” bill,  Kucinich may just have enough juice early in the election cycle of 2010 to actually make a game out of this. -- But if our “terrorist” history is any indication, that might not be the safest thing for the American people. -- Funny as it is, “the terrorists” always seem to strike when it is the most politically advantageous for the imperialists in the White House whether they are republican or democrat.  Odd how that works, ain’t it?" -- For more on this issue see....Reficultnias's 9/11 Central

A quote...."MOSCOW, December 14 (RIA Novosti) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said a recent statement by the U.S. secretary of state on ties with Iran was "a clear threat" against his country and Bolivia, the EFE news agency said on Monday. -- Hillary Clinton said on Monday that "if people want to flirt with Iran, they should take a look at what the consequences might well be for them." She expressed hope that they would "think twice" before doing so." - also posted at AlethoNews -- Ahhhhh, HH is now threatening Venezuela and no doubt the rest of Latin and Central America with the massive reemergence of the US-NRE's old fashioned Death Squads. - mpg
