Blackmailing dissent: you’re either with Obama or you’re with the Tea Party
Must Read - Quote of the Day...."Because the United States has only two parties, both championing business interests, Manichaean thinking is second nature to the American electorate. You’re either with educated, enlightened humanitarian Democrats or you’re with the fascistic, racist Republicans, from the liberal point of view. Conversely, from the conservative point of view, you’re either with tradition, custom, and the tested way as a Republican or you’re with the bleeding-hearted, budget-wasting, morally lax, socialist Democrats. -- This either/or proposition obviates the need for thought and makes voting a matter of choosing between good and evil. More sophisticated Americans resign themselves to voting for the lesser of two evils—which, in the end, is voting for evil. Thus, American elections have become an exercise in political neurosis." - also posted at AlethoNews

[Obama's] Guantanamo Show Trials Re-Started
Special Note - You ObamaTrolls happy yet? - A quote...."The trials will be held in Guantanamo, which is a huge step backwards. Obama had agreed to try suspects in American courts, which would thus follow the Constitution and the rule of law. [and more importantly....the rules of EVIDENCE!! - mpg] -- Indeed, the town of Hardin, Montana requested that 100 Gitmo detainees be sent to its empty prison, and Congressman Jim Moran said that detainees could be tried in his Alexandria, Virginia district. So there was willingness by Americans to hold the Guantanamo inmate trials here. -- Instead, we appear to be to Guantanamo "show trials". -- Specifically, as of 2008, the former chief prosecutor for Guantánamo's military commissions disclosed that the trials have been rigged to prevent the possibility of acquittal." - also posted at GlobalRsrch - Topix ||  9/11-Iraq-Torture Fables  ||

Police State Alert - Related Article - A quote...."Three U.S. lawmakers from both sides of the aisle on Tuesday joined a growing campaign to expand protections for Americans who tip off law enforcement to potential terrorist threats from discrimination lawsuits if they identify the wrong person. -- Sens.

Lamar Smith, R-Texas, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, unveiled Tuesday the "See Something, Say Something Act." - ALL of them bought and paid for shills of the AIPAC/Israeli Consortium, we're now becoming a "garrisoned" colony of the state of Israel and all of these people are traitors  to this nation. - mpg

Spoliation of Evidence at the 9/11 Crime Scenes
A quote...."(911Disclosure) – Wikipedia: “In law, spoliation of evidence is the intentional or negligent withholding, hiding, altering, or destroying of evidence relevant to a legal proceeding. The spoliation inference is a negative evidentiary inference that a finder of fact can draw from a party’s destruction of a document or thing that is relevant to an ongoing or reasonably foreseeable civil or criminal proceeding. -- The theory of the spoliation inference is that when a party destroys evidence, it may be reasonable to infer that the party had “consciousness of guilt” or other motivation to avoid the evidence. Therefore, the fact finder may conclude that the evidence would have been unfavorable to the spoliator.” - Topix ||  Acting Guilty - 12-01-09 - mpg  ||

Lawyers: U.S. faces suit on syphilis tests in Guatemala
A quote...."(CNN) -- The U.S. government will be hit with a class action lawsuit on behalf of 700 Guatemalans who were infected with syphilis unless it offers a way to settle claims before Friday, the plaintiffs' attorneys said. -- Law firms representing the victims said the United States intentionally infected the Guatemalans between 1946 and 1948 in an effort to study the effects of the disease. -- The complaint compares it to the Tuskegee syphilis experiment in Alabama. During the 40-year study that began in 1932, doctors observed how the disease progressed in about 400 poor African-Americans, who already had syphilis. The men were never told they had the disease and never treated for it. The test subjects received free medical testing, meals and burial insurance."

Homeland Security Blows Millions On Un-Constitutional Mobile Scanners: Courtesy Of Michael Chertoff
A quote...."3.2 million dollars is a drop in the bucket compared to the trillions used to subsidize Lloyd Blankfein's house in the Hamptons, but Homeland Security spent at least that much in developing naked body scanners that can track moving targets such as unsuspecting pedestrians.  Michael Chertoff's buddies at Rapiscan were paid $1.9 M and Northeastern University was given a contract worth $1.3 M to develop the technology -- and those are just the contracts we know about."

More on the World Wide Revolution.....

Docs: Egypt Security Bombed Churches, Resort
Must Read - (For confirmation of just how governments engage in numerous "false-flags" 24/7. Keep in mind these documents were seized in just one small country, from one regime, from only one building, in which  the security services had been busily shredding these documents during the last couple of weeks and therefore it's probable the protesters only managed to save a small fraction of the total.  And yet that tiny fraction is a horror show. Think about what this government has done in comparison across the world for over sixty years.  The protesters in Egypt have done an immeasurable service for everyone on the entire planet.....Thank you!!! - mpg)

A quote...."Just days after the Egyptian protesters attacked the state’s internal security headquarters and rescued reems of documents about Mubarak-era crimes that were about to be destroyed, some of the dirtiest such deeds are starting to come to light. And even for the notorious Mubarak regime, they’re surprisingly bad. -- Sex tapes, documents detailing broad surveillance of Egyptian dissidents and transcripts of telephone conversations between the dissenters and their family members, sure, but the biggest of what has come out so far reveals something far worse: official government involvement in the Alexandria church bombing and in a 2005 resort bombing. -- Its the sort of allegation that would normally seem too extreme to have any credibility, but they’re detailed in official documents as absolute facts." - bold by website editor

Secret FBI, CIA Documents and Sex Video Tapes Found At Egypt’s Terror Police Headquarters
Related Article - A quote...."Inside the dark quarters of Mubarak's terror police, an enraged population liberated prisoners still in their isolation cells, which were no larger than phone booths. In the process, they found torture devices, mountains of shredded documents, dozens of computers stripped from their hard drives and a stash of video tapes showing famous people—from actors to politicians, both Egyptians and from other countries—having sex. The videos were recorded by the secret police in hotel rooms. Nobody knows who stars in them yet, but I'm sure we will know about it very soon."

Inside An Egyptian Torture Center
Related Article - A quote...."With Mubarak out of power, Egyptians turned today on the brutal State Security Services he used to cement his reign. Thousands of protestors stormed the agency's main headquarters in Cairo, ransacking offices and searching for evidence of Mubarak's wrongdoing among classified documents. This is basically like if Americans were given free reign at the FBI's HQ."

The Old Gang's All Here - Libya and the Return of Humanitarian Imperialism
Must Read - A quote...."The whole gang is back: The parties of the European Left (grouping the  "moderate" European communist parties), the “Green” José Bové, now allied with Daniel Cohn-Bendit, who has never seen a US-NATO war he didn’t like, various Trotkyist groups and of course Bernard-Henry Lévy and Bernard Kouchner, all calling for some sort of "humanitarian intervention" in Libya or accusing the Latin American left, whose positions  are far more sensible, of acting as “useful idiots” for the "Libyan tyrant." -- Twelve years later, it is Kosovo all over again. Hundred of thousands of Iraqis dead, NATO stranded in an impossible position in Afghanistan, and they have learned nothing! The Kosovo war was made to stop a nonexistent genocide, the Afghan war to protect women (go and check their situation now), and the Iraq war to protect the Kurds. When will they understand that all wars claim to have humanitarian justifications? Even Hitler was “protecting minorities” in Czechoslovakia and Poland." - also posted at AlethoNews

Primary Dealers Flip 53% Of Just Issued 7 Year Bond Back To Fed In Under Two Weeks
Feeding At The Trough - (an example) - A quote...."When the Treasury issued $29 billion in 7 Year bonds (CUSIP: 912828PY0 - PDF) thirteen days ago, in an auction which we described as "unremarkable", the Primary Dealers took down $13.9 billion of the total issue, or 45.9% of the entire issue. Fast forward to today's POMO, which just concluded, and we learn that the Fed monetized $7.657 billion in bonds maturing between 09/30/2016 - 02/28/2018, or a 3.85 Submitted to Accepted ratio. As usual the internals are what matter. A quick scan shows that PDs could barely wait two weeks before they flipped more than half, or 53% of the full take down, right back to the monetizing hands of Brian Sack: 92.8% of the entire POMO consisted of just one issue - the just issued PY0 from last week. And so the shell game continues, especially since the interest paid on this $7.657 billion to the new holder, the Federal Reserve, will promptly be remitted back to the Treasury to be counted as revenue."

One of the least understood, most widely ignored, and mysteries of capitalism, the central banking system, is also the source of the greatest wealth and power, essentially managing capitalism – controlling the credit and debt of both government and industry. -- Any notion of a "free market" must be dispelled in its true meaning, for as long as the central banking system has been dominant, central bankers have managed and controlled capitalism for the benefit of the few and at the expense of the many. Comprehending the nature of central banking is necessary in order to understand the nature of the current economic crisis."

Bahrain's Revolution - A Decisive Phase
A quote...."The people's revolution is on its track; calling for the removal of the regime and performing various activities on the road to victory. In the past week several remarkable activities were undertaken with [re]sounding success. First came the picketing of the financial harbour owned by the regime's prime minister, Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa. It was conducted at night when hundreds of protesters moved from their base at the Pearl Square and took position near the main financial centre. Then came the massive demonstration and picketing of the main torture headquarters at Bahrain's Fort where a human wave flooded to highlight the role that place had been playing in torturing Bahrainis over the years. It stands as a reminder of the most brutal periods of the Al Khalifa reign of terror. The revolutionaries then organised another qualitative demonstration outside the main TV station." - also posted at AlethoNews

Not only did today's consumer credit update indicate last month's increase was revised lower by 33%, to just $4.1 billion (revolving revised from $2.3 billion to $2.1 billion), the revolving credit improvement is now dead and buried, after there was another drop in total revolving credit to the tune of $4.2 billion, more than wiping out last month's increase and printing the 28th of 29 consecutive monthly declines in revolving credit."

He had nixed the Operation Northwoods project conceived by the Joint Chiefs of Staff to conduct black ops terrorist operations against American citizens in Miami and Washington D.C., to hijack and shoot down American airliners (“real and simulated”), to strafe and bomb Cuban refugee ships headed for Florida and to blame it all on Castro in order to create public support for “regime change” in Cuba. -- When Kennedy signed the nuclear test ban treaty with Khrushchev, it brought him more condemnation from within his own government. In the eyes of the Joint Chiefs, the CIA, and the Secret Service, America had a national security risk in the White House who was selling out the country to Soviet deceptiveness."

Boycott, Divest and Sanction the ENTIRE state of Israel! Because it's EASY, because YOU as an INDIVIDUAL can PARTICIPATE, because YOU don't need to join anything, or sign anything, or pay anything.  Because YOU can start TODAY.  No more excuses folks...."Just DO IT!" - mpg

There are five million Jews living in Israel with another six million living here in the US-NRE for a grand total of just eleven million in these two nation states.  A "Boycott Arab goods" campaign can very easily, and very successfully, be answered by a "Boycott Jewish goods" campaign worldwide.

A friendly bit of advice from this website editor regarding this proposal by a few obviously insensitive members of the "Jewish Community".  Considering how much damage the "Jewish Community" has already inflicted on the ENTIRE international nation state system regarding their astoundingly clever PNAC Protocols, the curiously "fortuitous" 9/11 event needed to initiate them, the criminal Bankster financing system established to fund them -- (which by the way, directly caused the recent world wide financial crisis) -- the huge bonuses the Baksters have stolen to run it along with the decades of mass murder and mayhem inflicted on tens of millions of innocent people across this planet to carry them out, perhaps the "Jewish Community" shouldn't go down this road.

Perhaps more sensible members in the Jewish community should talk to their wayward fellow brethren regarding this rather foolish proposal and get them to re-think this entire issue. Perhaps all members of the Jewish community everywhere should publicly proclaim that Israel must start obeying existing international laws, complying with UN resolutions and abiding by the numerous treaties it has already signed or the entire state of Israel should be severely sanctioned including the imposition of a complete economic boycott along with anything else that would be necessary to force them to behave.

Perhaps members of the Jewish community should aggressively and proactively step forward and vociferously denounce the authors of the PNAC Protocols, the AIPAC/Israeli consortium's control of this nation's political and media establishments and call for a complete, through, independent and honest investigation of 9/11 and the punishment of all those found to have participated in these crimes.  Bearing in mind one cannot remain silent on these issues since to do so is not a matter of "one's delicate sensibilities toward any state or group which might be singled out", but is instead  a behavior, that if carried out on behalf of "your" group would call into question your actual allegiance and culpability, and if carried out on behalf of "your" foreign state, would by anyone's definition be a matter of treason. 

To be honest, from this website editor's perspective, the utter and complete silence from the Jewish community on these issues for the last decade has become deafening. A thundering silence of utter, self-satisfied, self-aggrandizing, conspiratorial, criminal, complicity.

Perhaps considering the fact these now obviously contrived, publicly planned, and openly promoted agendas and actions have been so completely catastrophic for the peoples of this world and this nation, but highly profitable or geo-politically advantageous for many members of the Jewish community, either here or in Israel, it is high time members of this community openly and publicly call for the investigation and punishment of those involved while renouncing the gains made for their community both in this nation and elsewhere.

Perhaps, given the mounting evidence of Israel's direct participation in these affairs during the last thirty years, and the benefits that have accrued to the Jewish community as a direct consequence, members of the community should also start thinking about making amends for the tens of trillions of dollars and millions of lives their community's actions have stolen from the other eight billion people living here on this planet. 

Such amends, or reparations, will no doubt take decades to complete and cost vast fortunes to implement, but if the Jewish community starts planning and saving their pennies right now, instead of (for instance) waiting around for other communities and nation states to do the planning for them, it would probably work out better for them in the end.

It's just a suggestion of course.

By the way.....talking to these "wayward members" should occur sooner rather than later. -- Again, just another teeny, tiny, little, helpful, suggestion. - mpg

Israel on the wrong side of history
Must Read - A quote...."Uri Avnery argues that Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s policy of maintaining Israel as a garrison state, enlarging the settlements, preventing the foundation of a real Palestinian state and promoting eternal conflict is leading to a cul-de-sac and international isolation from which it will be hard to exit.

”...the Arab awakening will, in the medium and long term, change the Israeli-Arab balance of power – psychologically, politically, economically, and in the end also militarily. At the same time, the world balance of power is also changing. New powers are rising, old powers are gradually losing their clout. This will not be a one-time, dramatic occurrence, but a slow and steady process." -- " That is how history is moving. Anyone who places himself on the wrong side of it will pay the price.”  -- *Uri Avnery*

Geopolitical strategists, armchair pundits and conspiracy theory devotees are competing to tell the world “what’s really happening and why,” but there is no single truth to the matter." - also posted at RevoltOfThePlebs - Topix ||  9/11-Planning Guidance Docs - S4I80s  ||

Arab leaders can do as they please and get away with it without being questioned or scrutinised by their own people.”

If there are any exceptions, it is the people like Hashmi Rafsanjani and Khatami for whom the West had a “relative” liking because they were rich having soft corners for the West. They ignore the fact that Hasmi Rafsanjani, a cleric, lost the key battle to a person, Mahmud Ahmedinejad, who was not a cleric, had modern education and belonged to a very ordinary lower middle class family. The rise of Ahmadinejad to Presidency at a young age and then winning another term is a big tribute to Iranian democracy.

Heck, even try to get a Tea Partier to explain choosing bailout-lover Sarah Palin to keynote their convention, especially when that movement once had at least some pre-astroturf roots in protesting government giveaways. -- What we have now is a group of politicians with shifting alliances on a case-by-case basis to the special interests who fund them. And currently, the most damaging one to our nation is the rise of the Bankster Party. Thankfully, we can now better identify its members."

More Jobs Mirage
Special Note - By The Numbers -- A quote...."According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 152,000 of the jobs or 79% are in private services, consisting of:  11,700 jobs in wholesale trade, 22,000 in transportation and warehousing, 36,400 in administration and waste services (of which 15,500 are temporary help services), and 36,200 in ambulatory health care services and nursing and residential care facilities. Entertainment, waitresses and bartenders accounted for 20,000. Repair and maintenance, laundry services, and membership associations accounted for 14,000. -- As one who has often reported the monthly payroll jobs breakdown, I am struck by the fact that these categories are the ones that have accounted for job growth for year after year.  How can this be?  How can Americans, who have had no growth in their real incomes and who are foreclosed from their homes and maxed out on credit card debt, car payments, and student loans, spend more every month in bars and restaurants?  How can a few service areas of the economy grow when nothing else is? -- The answer is that there were not 192,000 new jobs.  Statistician John Williams estimates the reported gain was overstated by about 230,000 jobs.  In other words, about 38,000 jobs were lost in February."

Fossils of Cyanobacteria in CI1 Carbonaceous Meteorites
Scientific Alert - (people have been thinking this might be a possibility for years) -- A quote...."Dr. Hoover has discovered evidence of microfossils similar to Cyanobacteria, in freshly fractured slices of the interior surfaces of the Alais, Ivuna, and Orgueil CI1 carbonaceous meteorites. Based on Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) and other measures, Dr. Hoover has concluded they are indigenous to these meteors and are similar to trichomic cyanobacteria and other trichomic prokaryotes such as filamentous sulfur bacteria. He concludes these fossilized bacteria are not Earthly contaminants but are the fossilized remains of living organisms which lived in the parent bodies of these meteors, e.g. comets, moons, and other astral bodies. The implications are that life is everywhere, and that life on Earth may have come from other planets. -- Members of the Scientific community were invited to analyze the results and to write critical commentaries or to speculate about the implications. These commentaries will be published on March 7 through March 10, 2011."

Their world government is one of interdependence between the nation-states, who in turn are enslaved by servile dependence on "global institutions," most notably those involving a world-wide monetary system. Any tradition or value system that promotes independence, sovereignty, knowledge, and self-reliance represents a brick wall standing in the way of the corroding effects of the globalist agenda."

As insurrection and repression has split Libya in two and the death toll has mounted, the old Bush-and-Blair battle-cries have returned to haunt us. -- The same western leaders who happily armed and did business with the Gaddafi regime until a fortnight ago have now slapped sanctions on the discarded autocrat and blithely referred him to the international criminal court the United States won't recognise. -- While American and British politicians have ramped up talk of a no-fly zone, US warships have been sent to the Mediterranean, a stockpile of chemical weapons has been duly discovered, special forces have been in action, Italy has ditched a non-aggression treaty with Tripoli and a full-scale western military intervention in yet another Arab country is suddenly a serious prospect." - also posted at ICH

A quote...."Suddenly, to be an Arab has become a good thing. People all over the Arab world feel a sense of pride in shaking off decades of cowed passivity under dictatorships that ruled with no deference to popular wishes. And it has become respectable in the West as well. Egypt is now thought of as an exciting and progressive place; its people’s expressions of solidarity are welcomed by demonstrators in Madison, Wisconsin; and its bright young activists are seen as models for a new kind of twenty-first-century mobilization. Events in the Arab world are being covered by the Western media more extensively than ever before and are being talked about positively in a fashion that is unprecedented. Before, when anything Muslim or Middle Eastern or Arab was reported on, it was almost always with a heavy negative connotation. Now, during this Arab spring, this has ceased to be the case.

Why the Dollar's Reign Is Near an End
Special Note - Related Article - A quote...."Second, [of three reasons] the dollar is about to have real rivals in the international sphere for the first time in 50 years. There will soon be two viable alternatives, in the form of the euro and China's yuan. -- Americans especially tend to discount the staying power of the euro, but it isn't going anywhere. Contrary to some predictions, European governments have not abandoned it. Nor will they. They will proceed with long-term deficit reduction, something about which they have shown more resolve than the U.S. And they will issue "e-bonds"—bonds backed by the full faith and credit of euro-area governments as a group—as a step in solving their crisis. This will lay the groundwork for the kind of integrated European bond market needed to create an alternative to U.S. Treasurys as a form in which to hold central-bank reserves. -- China, meanwhile, is moving rapidly to internationalize the yuan, also known as the renminbi.
