The Darkness within the Darkness and the Light within the Light.
Special Note - A quote...."If you can see that your reality is being manipulated by a dedicated cadre of Satanists, you have to assume that there are similar influences of a similar nature that are also impacting on your consciousness and your perceptions that you are unaware of, just as there are repellent life forms that are meeting in secret that have a lot more to say about what's going on than do the Bilderbergers and the Bohemian Groovers. We've been confined in a deprivation chamber, (masquerading as a culture) where truth has been denied access, due to filter traps, designed to prevent its entrance. The truth is as toxic to lies as lies are toxic to the truth... except that truth is always the victor."

US Flouts the Rule of Law while Demanding That Other Countries Honor It - posted at ICH
A quote...."July 19, 2013 "Information Clearing House - Ah, the rule of law. How often we hear our government leaders angrily demand that the rest of the world adhere to this sacred stricture, most recently as it demands that countries — even countries with which the US has signed no extradition treaty like Russia or China — honor the US charges leveled against National Security Agency whistleblower Edward Snowden and send him to the US for trial. - But the rule of law, in truth, means little to the US, which routinely thumbs its nose at the whole notion."

US- South Africa War Games: The Pentagon’s Hidden Agenda is to Make “Africans fight Africans”
A quote...."While the stated purpose of the war games is to “protect Africa”, the real objective is imperial conquest. Washington’s hidden agenda is to “make African fight Africans”.  It is worth noting that the SANDF was recently involved in fighting rebel forces in the Central African Republic, in which 15 SANDF soldiers were killed."

"The Act of Killing" New Film Shows US-Backed Indonesian Death Squad Leaders Reenacting Massacres @ICH
A quote...."The film is set in Indonesia, where, beginning in 1965, military and paramilitary forces slaughtered up to a million Indonesians after overthrowing the democratically elected government. That military was backed by the United States and led by General Suharto, who would rule Indonesia for decades. - There has been no truth and reconciliation commission, nor have any of the murderers been brought to justice. As the film reveals, Indonesia is a country where the killers are to this day celebrated as heroes by many. Oppenheimer spent more than eight years interviewing the Indonesian death squad leaders, and in "The Act of Killing," he works with them to re-enact the real-life killings in the style of American movies in which the men love to watch — this includes classic Hollywood gangster movies and lavish musical numbers. A key figure he follows is Anwar Congo, who killed hundreds, if not a thousand people with his own hands and is now revered as a founding father of an active right-wing paramilitary organization. We also ask Oppenheimer to discusses the film’s impact in Indonesia, where he screened it for survivors and journalists who have launched new investigations into the massacres."

A quote...."Overall military activities by foreign-backed insurgents in Syria have been relatively low in July, as they prepare a major campaign in August and September. However, insurgents have been trying to lay siege on Aleppo and are attempting to cut off the supply of food to its citizen. - The attempt to create a humanitarian crisis to justify intervention is failing, as the Syrian Armed Forces continue making progress at weeding out arms caches and terrorist hideouts, and the government implements relief plans."

What's Next for Syria?
Special Note - A quote...." Conflict drags on interminably. Dozens or more die daily. Syrian forces outmatch Western-backed death squad terrorists. They're not rebels. They're lawless invaders. - They're US proxy fighters. They're imported from dozens of countries. They're waging war against sovereign Syrian independence. Don't expect duplicitous Western politicians or media scoundrels to explain. - Assad's military outguns and outflanks Washington's shock troops. Reinforcements keep coming. Libya 2.0 looks possible. Perhaps likely."

More Tales From the Zio-Sphere....

From Turkey With Love: Another Israeli Attack on Syria? - posted at ICH
A quote...."July 19, 2013 "Information Clearing House - Prime Minister Erdogan and his AK Party government have a track record of being deceitful, especially in regards to both Israel and Syria. - No one should be surprised to hear that Israel and Turkey are collaborating together against the Syrians. With the aim of tightening the front against Syria, President Obama even travelled to Israel in March 2013 to directly broker a quick rapprochement between the governments of Israel and Turkey. Getting a public nudge from the Obama Administration, Israel and Turkey would announce that their diplomatic row was over only two days after NATO announced it had put together contingency plans for operations in Syria on March 20, 2013. Even when relations were publicly sour between the Ankara and Tel Aviv, the two countries maintained military and commercial ties." - also posted at GlobalResearch
Noam Chomsky is in Denial About 9/11 - posted at ICH
Special Note - A quote...." During a recent interview on Democracy Now, Noam Chomsky stated that he believes Osama bin Laden was probably behind the attacks of September 11, 2001.i The statement was curious because in earlier interviews Chomsky described the evidence against bin Laden as thin to nonexistent,ii which was accurate and, no doubt, explains why the US Department of Justice never indicted bin Laden for the 9/11 attacks. - Nor has any new evidence against bin Laden come to light; on the contrary. A compelling body of evidence now points in a very different direction, toward the unthinkable. - Three years ago (in July 2010) I attempted to engage Professor Chomsky in a conversation about this new evidence. Chomsky, however, showed no interest in the subject. After responding in a way that can only be described as incomprehensible, Chomsky repeated what he had stated in an earlier email: that skeptics of the official story should pursue the usual pathways to advance their ideas. In other words, they should publish their work."

Will Larry Silverstein ever be brought to justice for 9/11 insurance fraud? by Dr Kevin Barrett
Special Note - A quote...."The insurance companies are not openly accusing Silverstein of insurance fraud, presumably because doing so would threaten to demolish the 9/11 cover-up and bring down the US and Israeli governments at free-fall speed. But they have gone so far as to call Silverstein’s demand for more money “absurd,” a considerable understatement. - The insurance companies claim that Silverstein’s demands amount to “double recovery.” They say that Silverstein was already paid $4.9 billion – vastly more than the paltry $115 million or so that he and his backers paid for the complex just weeks before it was demolished – so why is he asking for another $3.5 billion? Silverstein’s answer: He needs the money. - And does he ever. He was originally demanding an extra $11 billion, before Hellerstein capped it at $3.5 billion."

Hellerstein to Silverstein: No more money for you, schmuck!
Related Article - A quote...."Judge Alvin Hellerstein has ruled that Larry Silverstein cannot keep double-dipping for billions of extra dollars in World Trade Center insurance money. -- Silverstein, who bought the condemned-for-asbestos World Trade Center two months before it was struck by “Zionist lightning”* in 2001, was asking for an extra 11 billion dollars, on top of the roughly five billion dollars he has already extorted from insurers, despite his public confession to demolishing WTC-7 himself. Judge Hellerstein, who had already reduced the 11 billion dollar second claim to three billion dollars, finally got fed up with Silverstein’s outlandish chutzpah and dismissed the case."

Israel lobby tries (and fails) to intimidate another UK MP
A quote...."Refusal to give the long-running crisis in the Holy Land proper emphasis in world history teaching is a denial of the Palestinian holocaust and the nakba, the ‘catastrophe’ of 1947-49 when nearly 750,000 Arabs were dispossessed of their homes, villages, towns and cities and driven into exile by Jewish terrorists and Israeli militia."

Israel Hit with EU War Crimes Sanctions
A quote...."In a surprise last minute move, the European Union set forth a strong set of economic sanctions against Israel, leaving that nation both surprised and reeling. - The sanctions, stimulated by what the EU refers to as “Israeli intransigence” regarding peace talks with the Palestinians, cover all financial dealings, loans, awards, transfer of “instruments” and severely limiting economic cooperation between Israel and all EU member nations starting in 2014."

"The fact that you now see members of both political parties increasingly angry over the fact that they were misled and lied to by top level Obama administration officials, that the laws that they enacted in the wake of 9/11 -- as broad as they were -- are being incredibly distorted by secret legal interpretations approved by secret courts, really indicates exactly that Snowden's motives to come forward with these revelations, at the expense of his liberty and even his life, were valid and compelling," Greenwald says." - For more on this issue see the articles posted below....

Is America's Social Contract Broken?
Second Quote of the Day...." Few people begrudge legitimately earned wealth, for example, the top athlete, the pop star, the tech innovator, the canny entrepreneur, the best-selling author, etc. The source of these individual's wealth is transparent, and any citizen can decline to support this wealth creation by not paying money to see the athlete, not buying the author's books, not shopping at the entrepreneur's shops, etc. -- The Social Contract is broken not by wealth inequality per se but by the illegitimate process of wealth acquisition, i.e. the state has tipped the scales in favor of the few behind closed doors and routinely ignores or bypasses the intent of the law even as the state claims to be following the narrower letter of the law. -- By this definition, the Social Contract in America has been completely smashed.One sector after another is dominated by cartel-state partnerships that are forged and enforced in obscure legislation written by lobbyists. Once the laws have been riddled with loopholes and the regulators have been corrupted, "no one is above the law" has lost all meaning."

William Engdahl for a special video-interview series in three parts. In the first part, “The Race Out of the Door,” you see them talk about, inter alia: the deeper causes for the financial crisis; modern banking as a giant confidence game; America’s so called “Asia Pivot” and the Trans-Pacific Partnership; the bubbles in American stock and global bond markets; and too much power in too few hands on Wall Street. By Lars Schall Mr. Engdahl states that all we see during the financial crisis is a prolonging of the race out of the door. The crisis isn’t just the result of a bubble in the U.S., which has been popped, but it goes much deeper. Yet, the underlying causes aren’t tackled at all. Instead, we experience the problems with a banking system that creates money with little collateral behind it; it’s all a giant con-game, says Mr. Engdahl. Moreover, he explains his views on the geopolitical game that’s going on between China and the United States, in particular the challenges for the US dollar vis-à-vis a growing internationalization of the Chinese currency in bilateral trade agreements."

Syria: Qusair victory puts imperialism on the spot
A quote...."With the success of the Syrian forces in sweeping the rebels out of Qusair, thereby simultaneously severing the terrorists’ lifeline to their fellow sectarians in the north east of Lebanon and re-enforcing the government’s links to those in Lebanon who offer neighborly support, the West can no longer be left in any doubt how the land lies. After two years and more of relentless subversion, supported by Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar acting as proxies for imperialism, Syria has continued to stand firm, and is now able to reassert her sovereignty throughout the national territory. The same cannot be said for the forces ranged against her, which at every level are falling out like the thieves they are. As rebel fortunes decay, cracks multiply in the imperialist front."

Turkey: war and economic crisis destabilise Erdogan
A quote...."The immediate trigger for the stormy events in Turkey over recent weeks was the heavy-handed police suppression of a peaceful demonstration over plans to concrete over the park adjoining the politically symbolic Taksim Square. This in turn followed a series of protests against a policy of bulldozing sites of historic importance to make way for the construction of shopping malls in a triumph of consumerism over history. This appalled some because of the environmental impact and others because it ran in tandem with a rewriting of republican history. The protests over the closure of the Emek cinema in 2010 were a case in point. The cinema, built in 1924 (just a year into the Kemalist republic), was a potent symbol of Turkey’s political and cultural identity which was fiercely defended not just by film buffs but also by political activists. - So the battle over a scrap of green on the edge of Taksim Square is not quite as random as it seems. However, it is clear that the forces unleashed in recent weeks are evidence of a social destabilisation in Turkey which has implications way beyond the protest’s point of origin."

“It’s as if we are living on another planet”
A quote...."Since the State of Israel tightened its closure of the Gaza Strip in 2007, prospects for exchange with academic institutions outside Gaza have been severely restricted. Israel currently limits the ability of international academics to take up lecturing and research positions in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank through a number of different approaches, from denying entry for ‘security reasons’ to issuing visas that only permit the holder to stay for a matter of weeks. The resulting isolation of Palestinian academics has a detrimental effect on higher education institutions in the Gaza Strip, and prospects for good quality higher education are steadily worn away. There are few opportunities for students to obtain a Masters degree, and only one post-doctorate programme is available."

Alas, a number of distinguished Republican Senators continue to insist that Washington brought something called democracy to Baghdad and the current incumbent in the White House appears unable to resist the urge to meddle in places like Libya and Syria, where the United States national interest would appear to be somewhat elusive." - also posted at the UglyTruth - Topix ||  TWA Flight 800  || - New Weblist!!

The World Without Qatar - posted at ICH
A quote...." July 18, 2013 "Information Clearing House - The sudden political withdrawal of Qatar from the international scene was followed, a week later, by the overthrow of Mohamed Morsi in Egypt. Although these two events coincided, without cause and effect, their occurrence has radically changed the future of the Arab world. -- Within two weeks, the Muslim Brotherhood, to which Washington was promising the leadership of the Arab world, have lost two of their main levers of power. Emir Hamad Al-Thani of Qatar was forced to abdicate on June 25th and with him his mentor and Prime Minister, HBJ. On July 3rd, President Mohamed Morsi was toppled by the Egyptian Army, while warrants were soon issued for the arrest of the main figures of the Egyptian movement, including the Supreme Guide of the Brotherhood, Mohammed Badie.It does not appear that, in pushing Emir Hamad towards the exit, Washington had anticipated another regime change in Egypt. The United States, which did not tolerate its political and financial shenanigans, decided to relegate Qatar to its rightful place as a micro-state.

The Lidless Eye and the Yo Yo Dance of Butch Napolitano
Must Read - A quote...."Submerged, below the sensors of The Lidless Eye, seeing in all directions from atop the pyramid, indifferent to the dictates of conscience, impartially contemptuous of all life, driven by one imperative and that is, the power to control and to rule without resistance, no matter how draconian or twisted may be the edicts of the scepter. -- The arrogance of power, unaffected by any natural or necessary restraints is a heady brew. It makes them stagger off course and filled with bombast and self importance, it compels them to strut, fret and play the fool for their hour upon the stage. Had they the necessary restraints and attendant capacity for insight, they would have never exposed themselves as they've done. Doing this, prancing about in untouchable self importance, with the flawed presumption that they are too powerful to be touched; too big to die or be torn apart by an angry mob, this juvenile personality disorder, is the gateway to perdition... is the genesis of evil destroying itself. It is an unavoidable part of an ageless dynamic. It is hidden from the view of those who harbor fear and various degrees of iniquity and who conspire with the directives and intentions of what motivates The Lidless Eye."

The Unspoken Truth: Coup d’etat in America

More Tales From the Zio-Sphere....

The NYT Continues to Misinform on Chemical Weapons in Syria
NYT Exposed - (again) -- A quote...."Writing in his original preface to Animal Farm, George Orwell wrote about how “inconvenient facts [can be] kept dark, without the need for any official ban”...."
"Anyone who has lived long in a foreign country will know of instances of sensational items of news – things which on their own merits would get the big headlines – being kept right out of the British press, not because the Government intervened but because of a general tacit agreement that ‘it wouldn’t do’ to mention that particular fact […] At any given moment there is an orthodoxy, a body of ideas which it is assumed that all right-thinking people will accept without question. It is not exactly forbidden to say this, that or the other, but it is ‘not done’ to say it, just as in mid-Victorian times it was ‘not done’ to mention trousers in the presence of a lady. Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing, either in the popular press or in the highbrow periodicals." - also posted at AlethoNews

Francesco Cossiga, President of Italy between 1985 and 1992, said in 2007 to the newspaper Corriere della Sera, that it was well known in informed circles in America and Europe that the September 11th attack “was planned and executed by the American CIA and Mossad with the help of the Zionist world in order to blame the Arab countries, and to persuade the Western powers to intervene in both Iraq and Afghanistan”[1]." - Topix ||  9/11 & 7/11  Israeli Connection  ||

A military spokesman for the Israeli Air Force (IAF) said both pilots were recovered. The plane is said to have crashed into the Mediterranean Sea. - Almost no part of this story is true.

To have high Treasury Dept officials, or even State Departments ones heading over to the AIPAC to break bread with their fellow tribesmen as the deploy American taxpayer funding assets to work for Israeli and international Jewish interests I personally would consider a form or treason. - For some reason no one seems interested in reporting them for this.

American media of course have abandoned us to our fates, and gone over to the dark forces to try to assure their own survival...Jim W. Dean]"

The Israeli soldiers arrested the child for allegedly throwing a rock, even though the arrest of anyone that age is a violation of Israeli law.

To My Comrades of Color:
Quote of the Day...."As a general rule, the readers of alternative news are of slightly higher intelligence than readers of the National Enquirer, and I’d dare to say that they’re probably more intelligent than the average American too. That being the case, I never expected there would be a reason to address our political struggle from the standpoint of race, but in light of the recent racist propaganda and provocations that are being unleashed upon our society by the Zionists’ media and paid shills, I think there may be a few things to discuss in that arena. -- Firstly, I think we’re all aware of the Zionists’ motive for encouraging racial strife, and I believe judicialwatch.org has given us recent proof of them doing exactly that. We all know (or should know) why one insignificant shooting has dominated the Zionist media, and we’re all familiar with the Zionists’ long history of inciting racial hatred in this country to keep Americans divided, and distracted from learning who their real enemy is."

Democracy and Empire
A quote...."If NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden can find his way to political asylum in Venezuela, as current rumor has it, the local issue of an American democratic activist (Snowden) finding refuge in a democratic country is solved. But the larger problem of the citizens of the U.S. passively accepting the increasingly oppressive terms of empire remains. To the extent the peoples of South and Central America live in functioning democracies and we in the U.S. don’t, this has come at the cost of a century or more of blood, expropriation and humiliation at the hands of American empire. While Mr. Snowden’s refuge in Venezuela would serve as a potent symbol of the Venezuelan people’s victory against the oil mafia (CIA) and America’s political domination of South and Central America, at what point must Americans assume responsibility for our roles in the deprivations of empire?" - also posted at RINF

“DO NOT,” Kiriakou wrote, “under any circumstances, cooperate with the FBI. FBI agents will lie, trick, and deceive you. They will twist your words and play on your patriotism to entrap you. They will pretend to be people they are not – supporters, well-wishers, and friends – all the while wearing wires to record your out-of-context statements to use against you. The FBI is the enemy; it’s part of the problem, not the solution.”"
Greenwald: "The US Govt Should Be On Its Knees Every Day Praying That Nothing Happens To Snowden"
A quote...."Edward Snowden may be America's persona most non grata in the entire world, but he has an insurance policy against "accidents": a treasure trove of supposedly damaging secrets about the US that will hit the public domain if something were to happen to the 30 year old whistleblower. A trove is so damaging that according to Glenn Greenwald, Snowden "poses more of a threat to the U.S. than anyone in the country’s history." Well, maybe a threat to the "government" which now only represents the interests of various corporations and Wall Street, but certainly not to what the US was supposed to be before it was hijacked by special interests, lobbies and the creature from Jekyll Island."
