EXAMPLES OF HATE SPEECH BY ISRAEL AGAINST PALESTINE

David Ben Gurion (the first Israeli Prime Minister): "If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti - Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault ? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?" Quoted by Nahum Goldmann in Le Paraddoxe Juif (The Jewish Paradox), pp121.


The Anti-Semitic ADL

Helen Thomas made this truthful and factual assessment of the political reality dominating our society:

“We are owned by the propagandists against the Arabs. There’s no question about that. Congress, the White House and Hollywood, Wall Street, are owned by the Zionists. No question in my opinion. They put their money where their mouth is. … We’re being pushed into a wrong direction in every way.” Foxman responded by stating:

FBI sets up another patsy in desperate attempt to distract media from fraudulent mortage buybacks.

Fraud as a Business Model (powerpoint)

Honorable Veterans: America Needs You One More Time – Free America from Israel's Power

No Americans possess the honor, courage, credibility, bearing hardships and sacrificing life and limb as America's soldiers and Veterans who uniquely have the knowledge that war is hell, but willingly accept that liberty and freedom from all foes from abroad or within is the highest calling to defend this nation. Honorable Veterans, you are America's pride with vast support in this country. It must be you that rallies this nation to once against fight for America's Independence from Israel's power. You, along with all of us who will follow your leadership, must, must, must reclaim our government, the White House and the subservient Congress, from the tentacles of Israel that reach deep into our Treasury, Pentagon, State Department, and Commerce Department, and our Federal Reserve.

The IRS Extortion of the American People

The “Internal Revenue Service” is a collection agency for the private, profit-making corporation that calls itself the Federal Reserve System. The fools who still send money to this private company can prove this by examining the backs of their canceled checks to the IRS. It will say “Pay to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.” It doesn’t say, “Pay to the US Treasury Department.” Why do you suppose that is? Your hard-earned money goes to a private company that has never been audited, that was created by foreign Zionists for their own gain. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York is a private company, just like Goldman Sachs, both owned by pretty much the same people. See Lewis v. US (1982).

White House Insider: "They were in shock at the president’s behavior."

It was told to me though by someone who was. They were there. First hand. They were also left to apologize to the ones left in the room after the president left. Some of these were military. They were not happy. No…that is not accurate. They were pissed. They didn’t say much at the time, but word got back. They were in shock at the president’s behavior. The country had just lost a number of soldiers the week prior, the public opinion on the war was falling…and the president didn’t seem to care. He arrives late, leaves early, appears to emotionally shut down during the actual discussion, and to then start laughing once again as he is leaving…how does someone reconcile with that kind of behavior? I can’t. It turns my stomach.

Webmaster's Commentary:

Sort of like Hitler, just before he moved into the Berlin Bunker!

Obama to Netanyahu – "You win"

Those of us who are associated with the truth of history as it relates to the making and sustaining of the conflict in and over Palestine that became Israel, and who call for justice for the Palestinians, now have reason to say “Thank you” to President Obama. With his decision to abandon efforts to persuade Israel to renew a freeze on illegal settlement building on the occupied West Bank, he has proved that the makers of American policy for resolving the conflict are Israel’s leaders and their lobby in the U.S. (including its many stooges in Congress and the mainstream media), not the man who occupies the Oval Office in the White House.

Another silent walk-out in protest of Israel's PR campaign

On December 2nd, an event entitled "Overcoming Terror: A True Story" was set to take place on the University of Massachusetts campus in Amherst, Massachusetts. It was sponsored by the Student Alliance for Israel (SAFI) and the University of Massachusetts Hillel House. IDF Sergeant Kenny Sachs was the orator, an on-call speaker for Israeli propaganda groups Upstart Activist and Divestment Watch. Though the topic of discussion happened in Gaza, the event description never named Palestinians. Instead, "terrorists" was the term used to describe those who "attacked" Sergeant Sachs at the Erez checkpoint in northern Gaza.

WikiLeaks 'struck a deal with Israel' over diplomatic cables leaks!

According to an Arabic investigative journalism website [2], Assange had received money from semi-official Israeli sources and promised them, in a “secret, video-recorded agreement,” not to publish any document that may harm Israeli security or diplomatic interests. The sources of the Al-Haqiqa report are said to be former WikiLeaks volunteers who have left the organisation in the last few months over Assange's “autocratic leadership” and “lack of transparency.”

« Bernanke's Disclosure Bombshell - The FED Took Equities As Collateral During Crisis »

Perhaps more important is the fact that there is now confirmation that the Fed took in equities as collateral during the market liquidity operations in 2008 and 2009. As one of our favorite equity market observers wrote last week, the fact of the Fed financing equity positions was known in September of 2008, but as my colleague noted at the time, “you had to read between the lines.” As it turns out, the Fed’s primary dealer credit facility or “PDCF” was essentially able to take any paper, debt or equity, proving once and for all that the Fed had abandoned any pretense at market discipline. Webmaster's Commentary:

You are so close to the real heart of the scandal.

Bernanke wasn't just accepting junk collateral for the bailout money, Bernanke was buying back the fraudulent mortgage-backed securities Wall Street has been selling for years. This is why even the pretense of profitability has been abandoned. The FED already knows these equities are worthless.

As detailed in "Bankers Gone Wild", mortgages were cranked out by unscrupulous mortgage brokers, then bundled together into mortgage securities, which were in turn re-sold to investors as triple-A investments, even though the bundles included sub-prime mortgages already defaulting as US jobs were shipped overseas.

These mortgage-backed securities are a Wall Street invention! And at first they appeared to be immensely profitable, so not only were US financial corporations, investment houses, and pension funds buying them, but so too were non financial corporations and major foreign banks including Deutsche Bank and Credit Suisse.

But those early profits were a fiction, and we now know that many of the sellers of mortgage backed securities were engaging in Ponzi scheme activity, using proceeds from sales of mortgage backed securities to pay "earnings" to earlier investors, while the same SEC that had turned a blind eye to Bernie Madoff's $65 billion swindle looked the other way!

Worse, we now know that individual mortgages were pledged as collateral to multiple security bundles, which is illegal! This is briefly mentioned at 3:48 in the next video.














The criminal fraud even went further than that! In the case of Countrywide (now part of Bank of America) the actual titles were never really transferred, leaving the investment bundles entirely unsecured!

What appears to have happened is that the European banks realized that the American investment firms selling those mortgage-backed securities were engaging in fraud! Greenspan has admitted to such.



As the banks of Europe began to feel the major losses from the fraud, they turned to their local governments for financial assistance. In turn, those governments were forced to apply for loans from the International Monetary Fund, plunging their people deeper into debt, and the governments under the control of the private bankers! Indeed one must wonder if this multinational financial fraud had as its ultimate objective the forcing of the entire western world under the control of a giant private bank!.

Obviously, the people of Europe are refusing to be chained to a global bank and seem far more worried about their freedoms than their American counterparts. Yet a quick Google search shows the media encouraging the nations hit with this massive financial fraud to apply to the IMF for more loans, never mentioning that in their indebtedness lies the end of their national sovereignty!

Ultimately the European banks are never going to sit still for fraud, even from Wall Street, and even from the USA! In order to reduce their losses and avoid more IMF entanglements, the European banks demanded a refund on those fraudulent investment packages. No doubt the Wall Street mortgage fraudsters refused, suggesting that the bankers of Europe dump their losses on their populations just as the American banks were being forced to do. That some European banks did so explains why so many European nations are in financial trouble. However, the larger European banks may have decided to "get tough" with the Americans, and this may explain the mysterious electronic run on the US financial system in February 2009, which almost crashed the US economy. Strangely, the American people were never informed who had initiated the financial transfers, even though obviously this information is recorded in the transactions on the computer systems.


This "attack" may have been a warning from the European main banks to the US to make good on the bad investments, or risk full public exposure for the mortgage backed securities fraud!

Soon after, we learned that the Federal Reserve was handing out trillions and trillions of dollars, loans which the American people are expected to repay, only the Federal Reserve refused to say who was getting the money, and even implied that exposure of the recipients of these trillions of dollars might pose a threat to the US economy. Now, nearly two years later, we find out that the Federal Reserve was buying back the mortgage-backed securities from European banks including Deutsche Bank and Credit Suiss. The reason this was kept secret was that the American people were being told that all these "bailouts" would be repaid, yet common sense tells us that profit cannot be made from an exposed fraud! The Fed could not admit too owning all those mortgage-backed securities without being forced to answer the question of just exactly why they were not producing any earnings, with the usual "it was all the borrowers' fault" excuses wearing thin even then! As cash left the nations financial system to cover the repurchase of the fraudulent mortgage backed securities, banks found their balance sheets slipping into the red. The banks were being driven into insolvency making good on the bad paper and this is what triggered the epidemic of fraudulent foreclosures. Banks needed real assets on their balance sheets as quickly as they could to get their balance in the black and their banks out of insolvency. So shortcuts were taken which became known as "foreclosuregate". For some banks, it was too late. Hundreds of banks either dragged down by the fraudulent mortgage securities or made insolvent buying back the bad paper, have been shut down. For other major banks and financial institutions, the tactic worked and they stayed afloat, for which making millions of Americans homeless seemed a small price to pay! Indeed one might explain the hitherto unexplained reluctance by the Federal Government to stem the offshoring of American jobs as a deliberate policy of setting up Americans to lose their homes in order to preserve the capital structure of the banks!

In other words, the American people were looted to make good on the fraud perpetrated by Wall Street not only against American financial institutions, but bankers in the Eurozone as well. The Wall Street Fraudsters should have gone to jail. But they walk free and clear, saved from the FDIC and prison, heading into a wonderful holiday with record-setting bonuses to spend while ordinary Americans have been made jobless, homeless, and hungry to keep the criminals out of prison. The Mortgage Backed Securities fraud is the biggest fraud in the history of the United States, and as today's revelations make clear, we still do not know the full scale of the financial rape this nation has suffered.

Israel blinks, decides to ease Gaza export ban, but blames HAMAS for suffering of the Gazan people.

DAY OF INFAMY - TREASON AND DISLOYALTY BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

Israel attacked foreign flagged ships in international waters (the very activity the 6th fleet is killing Somali coastal patrol crews for), hijacked a US-flagged ship, and kidnapped 12 Americans, shooting one of them in the head 4 times.

A real President, who remembers that his job is to take care of America and Americans, would not rush to the UN to protect the nation that just attacked Americans.

A real Congress, who remembers that their job is to take care of America and Americans, would not hand Israel a license to murder more Americans anywhere in the world Israel decides they are an inconvenience!

No government can serve two masters, and a government that serves Israel cannot serve the American people.

A friend to Israel is no friend of America.

Webmaster's Commentary:

Relinked in light of today's announcement that Israel will apologize and pay compensation to Turkey for the attack on the aid flotilla.

Dear President Pussy

I am telling Santa you go on the "naughty" list.

Israel agrees to offer "apology" to Turkey

Israel has agreed in principle to offer an apology and pay compensation to Turkey for the normalization of bilateral relations that have severely deteriorated since the killing of Turkish citizens in an Israeli raid on an aid flotilla in May, a leading Israeli daily reported on Tuesday.

IDF bombs Gaza tunnel, weapons cache

The army explained that the attack was a response to the firing of rockets and mortar shells into Israel in the past two weeks, saying it viewed Hamas as solely responsible for the situation in Gaza. On Monday, the Color Red alert systems detected a rocket fired at the Ashkelon Coast Regional Council. There were no reports of injuries or damage. Residents were ordered to enter fortified rooms and reported of a faint explosion sound. Webmaster's Commentary:

Now that France has joined Venezuela, Uruguay, and Brazil in recognizing the state of Palestine with its 1967 borders, expect Israel to escalate the program to eradicate the Palestinians.

Today's attack was unprovoked.

Why would any Palestinian, just as the world starts to recognize Palestine as a nation, commit an act Israel could use to justify renewed attacks in Gaza? The answer is, no Palestinian would do that. Israel would. And the proof is simple. There were no injuries or damage from this "HAMAS rocket attack." The public reported hearing a sound. That's all. It's a fake.

Russian jets halted US-Japan military drills

The US and Japan were forced to halt military exercises this week because of Russian jets flying nearby, Japanese officials have revealed. Russia admitted its jets were flying above the Sea of Japan, but said the pilots had not breached any rules. Moscow and Tokyo have argued recently over an island chain they both claim.

Haiti cholera: UN peacekeepers to blame, report says

Epidemiologist Renaud Piarroux conducted research in Haiti on behalf of the French and Haitian governments. The cholera epidemic has killed 2120 people, and nearly 100,000 cases have been treated, according to the Haitian government.The report by Mr Piarroux found that the source of the outbreak was a Nepalese peacekeeping base, whose toilets contaminated the Artibonite river, according to a copy seen by the Associated Press news agency.

Webmaster's Commentary: One has to wonder if this epidemic was "allowed" to happen to silence the Haitian people, who were beginning to speak out about the lack of promised aid and infrastructure. There are a number of countries (the US included) which find it in their best interests to keep Haitians perpetually disenfranchised and appallingly poor.

Taxpayers to Cover War Contractor Losses in Lawsuits by Soldiers

Taxpayers to Cover War Contractor Losses in Lawsuits by Soldiers
If 34 National Guard soldiers win their lawsuit against contractor KBR Inc., the Department of Defense—and thus taxpayers—will wind up paying for the civil damages, not the company that did the wrongdoing. That’s because KBR received an immunity clause in its government contract just prior to the Iraq invasion in 2003, granting it protection from any civil lawsuits arising from the company’s work.

Webmaster's Commentary: Our military should get every bit of medical help they deserve, but that KBR got this sweetheart deal of "immunity", no matter what kind of injury their carelessness caused our Vets, should get them banned from any contracts by the US government forever.

U.S. fiscal health worse than Europe's: China adviser

The U.S. dollar will be a safe investment for the next six to 12 months because global markets are focused on the euro zone's troubles but America's fiscal health is worse than Europe's, an adviser to the Chinese central bank said on Wednesday. Webmaster's Commentary:

"Our solution to the China debt crisis is simple. We will declare war on them and murder the people we owe money to. After all, it worked for Philip IV when he owed all that cash to the Templars!


BitTorrent Based DNS To Counter US Domain Seizures

The domain seizures by the United States authorities in recent days and upcoming legislation that could make similar takeovers even easier in the future, have inspired a group of enthusiasts to come up with a new, decentralized and BitTorrent-powered DNS system. This system will exchange DNS information through peer-to-peer transfers and will work with a new .p2p domain extension. Webmaster's Commentary:

Gates gets sobering war update on Afghan visit

Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates received a sobering update on security in eastern Afghanistan during a visit Tuesday, reflecting the uneven nature of the Obama administration's claims to be making progress in suppressing the Taliban insurgency. Gates and other officials are in a difficult position, arguing that the troop increase is beginning to show signs of turning around the 9-year-old war but also conceding that stability in Afghanistan, and large-scale withdrawals of U.S. and European forces, may not be possible before 2014.

Webmaster's Commentary: A classical definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting a different outcome: this is precisely what the US and NATO are doing in Afghanistan, and yet the only thing they seem to be able to continue to do is what has not, cannot, and will not work.

US warns of aid cuts if Sadr bloc takes certain Iraqi ministries

The US is warning that it could cut substantial funding to Iraq’s Health, Education, and Transport ministries if the anti-American Sadr bloc is given those cabinet posts in a new government being formed by Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

The comments by a senior US embassy official were the clearest public statements yet of US determination to try to limit the influence of the Sadr movement if it continues to rebuff American overtures. The hardline Shiite bloc won the single biggest number of seats in the Iraqi parliament in March 7 elections but refuses to meet with American officials.

Webmaster's Commentary: IF the Sadrists stay their course, it will mean far less influence by the US in the governmental affairs of Iraq. I am certain that Iran would love to fill in the gap, if the US decides to defund Iraq's Health, Education, and Transport ministries. This US attempt at financial political blackmail cannot, and will not, work.This is yet another in a string of unintended consequences from the occupation of Iraq.

Bank of America admits fraud in US antitrust case

US banking giant Bank of America has admitted it committed fraud in the municipal bond derivatives market and will pay 137.3 million dollars in damages, the government said Tuesday.

Webmaster's Commentary:


REMAX AND RACISM (IT’S NOT ONLY THE RABBIS)

Amid Censorship Efforts, US Announces Plans to Host World Press Freedom Day

Faced with growing efforts to censor the release of embarrassing information by WikiLeaks and armed with at best a tenuous grasp of the concept of irony, US State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley today announced that the federal government has won the right to host “World Press Freedom Day” in May of 2011, and that the event will be held in Washington DC.

In his official statement Crowley said the move would prove the US commitment to “expand press freedom and the free flow of information in this digital age,” but comes at a time when the State Department is not only championing the attempt to silence the release of classified cables showing a variety of crimes by officials.

Webmaster's Commentary: One does not know whether to laugh or cry at this one, considering all the lies this government has gone to great lengths to continue to propagate, and in the process, attempting to muzzle the whistle-blowers committed to telling the truth. What Assange has going is, fundamentally, a high-end extortion racket targeted against governments. He will make statements about information which is about to be leaked....then, he sits on the info, giving various countries the time to buy his silence, as has apparently happened with Israel.

Notice that in none of the cables which were leaked was anything stated which did not support the Israeli position on Iran.

Wikileaks: Corrupted Oracle or a Cointelpro Asset of the Establishment?

There is only one thing more dangerous than a fundamentalist Neo-conservative, and that’s a naive liberal. In the wake of the demolition of the modern, somewhat mythological illusory icon Barrack Obama, people who identify themselves as liberal watchdogs have been left wanting for a new hero.

Extension of U.S. Tax Cuts Will Prompt Congress to Discard Own Budget Law

Congressional Democrats and Republicans are preparing to set aside their budget constraints as they negotiate the extension of income tax cuts scheduled to expire this month.

Their plans to declare a budget emergency as they approve the extension of tax cuts will override a “pay-as-you-go” law that was structured to limit Congress’s ability to finance higher spending or tax relief by expanding the budget deficit.

Extending all income-tax rates for two years, along with renewal of business tax breaks, relief from the alternative minimum tax and other moves such as expanded unemployment insurance could add about $750 billion to the deficit over the next decade, about $300 billion of which is beyond the deficit- expansion which the “pay-as-you-go” law would allow.

Webmaster's Commentary:

This is why I view the entire Congress as a bunch of money-addicts. Even with the clear message that Americans want the size of government reduced and wasteful spending ended, Congress reacts to the tax cuts by going on yet another borrowing binge so they can continue to play "Big Spender" on the world stage, pouring trillions into wars, billions into Israel, lavish perqs for themselves, and trillions more for their banking buddies to buy back the fraudulent mortgage-backed securities and stay out of prison.

Congress just is not getting the message that We The People want the wars ended, funding to Israel canceled, and a full refund of all the public money spent to bail out private bankers form their own greed, recklessness, and stupidity.

That is the only thing that will work. It is working in Iceland. The people of Iceland told the bankers to pay for their own mistakes and now Iceland is out of recession.

Of course, Iceland had to fire their banker-blowing government and start over, but really, that is a small price to pay for freedom and prosperity.

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." -- The Declaration of Independence


US, Iran agree in Geneva to meet again in early 2011

The first direct talks between the United States and Iran over its nuclear program in more than a year concluded in Geneva on Tuesday with an agreement for another meeting next month in Istanbul but no substantive progress, according to participants.

While Teheran had said it refused to discuss its nuclear program going into the discussions, Western sources said a significant amount of time was devoted to the issue, which is the international community’s key concern. The talks also lasted two days despite earlier Iranian statements that their delegation would leave after the first day.

Webmaster's Commentary: Unfortunately, the US and Israel will do everything in their power to see to it that the next round of talks does not produce an agreement, and will use the lack of such an agreement as a pretext to a military confrontation.

U.S. drops push for Israel settlement freeze

The United States on Tuesday abandoned its effort to persuade Israel to freeze construction of Jewish settlements, officials said, dealing a blow to efforts to revive Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.

Webmaster's Commentary:

This was never going to happen. That Obama, Clinton, and Mitchell didn't realize it was never going to happen makes me gravely concerned about their collective capacities for both critical thinking, and for understanding Israel's true agenda regarding the Palestinians.

That agenda is, very simply, the acquisition of territory by any means necessary. We are seeing, and will continue to see, a brisk Israeli annexation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and the forced expulsions of Palestinians who have lived in their homes for generations.

And regarding Gaza?

-The siege has created near-starvation conditions for masses of the Gazan people

-Sick individuals are denied life-saving permits to travel for desperately needed health care

-Palestinian schools which have been destroyed are not being allowed to be rebuilt.

-Separation barriers cut Palestinian farmers away from their farmlands.

-School children accused of throwing rocks are tortured and imprisoned, have absolutely no representation, and will have criminal records for the rest of their lives.

-Gazan Palestinians can be shot, maimed and killed by the IDF for absolutely no reason whatsoever.

Oh, yes: Israel has its very own "Final Solution" for Palestinian Gazans!

FLASHBACK - COINTELPRO - THE GOVERNEMENT'S FEAR OF JOHN LENNON

no single celebrity filled the government with more fear than did ex-Beatle John Lennon. Lennon's popularity, and hence his ability to influence popular opinion, coupled with his strong anti-war stance, made him a real threat in the event the United States decided it had to go to war. For this reason, Lennon was one of the most watched celebrities, and according to Lennon's youngest son, the victim of a government assassination plot.


Atheist Speakers Assaulted at Hawaii State Capital for Objecting to Senate Prayer (Video)

On April 29, 2010, activists Mitch Kahle and Kevin Hughes were assaulted by Ben Villaflor, the Senate Sergeant-At-Arms, and State Sheriff’s Deputies, for objecting to unconstitutional Christian prayers used to begin each session of the Hawaii State Legislature. Hughes was injured in the attack and was taken to the hospital for x-rays and treatment. Kahle was arrested and prosecuted, but was ultimately vindicated when Judge Leslie Hayashi found Kahle “NOT GUILTY” and ruled that: “The Senate’s [Christian] prayers violate the constitutional separation of church and state.”

U.S. Invites Japan to Join Korean Exercise as Tensions With North Escalate

The U.S. military chief said he wants Japan to join drills off the Korean peninsula to forge a “unified position” with South Korea against aggression by Kim Jong Il’s regime.

Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said at a briefing today in Seoul that he hopes U.S. military exercises with South Korea will “include participation by your neighbors and partners, in particular the Japanese.” He didn’t elaborate on what kind of role Japan would be playing, only that they could offer training and expertise.

Webmaster's Commentary:

The reason the tensions here are "escalating" is that the US's actions in the Korean peninsula are causing tensions to escalate.

One has to wonder who, in the bowels of power in DC, would be barking mad enough to contemplate a war with China. Yet, this may well be the very thing for which the corporate media is setting up the American people with their coverage.

And please remember:

1. The US was unable to convince China to revalue its currency at the last G-20 meeting in November.

2. The US is incapable of repaying those billions of dollars of assets on which the Chinese government is sitting. If there is a war, and the US wins (dubious as that may be, in light of the fact that we don't have the manufacturing capability to sustain a prolonged war), as victors, we don't have to pay back what we owe them.

3. China and Russia have done away with the dollar completely in transactions between the two countries.

4. Because of treaties between North Korea and China, and between South Korea and the US, it will be impossible for a military conflict between these two countries not to drag in the US and China directly.

5. There are some in power in DC who believe that another war (any war, thank you very much), will distract the American people from the economic misery this administration's domestic and foreign policies have created, and get them to rally around their government in a show of unity. But I have a message to the White House, the Pentagon, and the State Department: don't bet on that last thought working at all.


WikiLeaks 'struck a deal with Israel' over diplomatic cables leaks

According to new revelations, Assange had allegedly struck a deal with Israel before the recent 'cable gate', which may explain why the leaks “were good for Israel,” as the Israeli prime minister put it. According to an Arabic investigative journalism website [2], Assange had received money from semi-official Israeli sources and promised them, in a “secret, video-recorded agreement,” not to publish any document that may harm Israeli security or diplomatic interests. The sources of the Al-Haqiqa report are said to be former WikiLeaks volunteers who have left the organisation in the last few months over Assange's “autocratic leadership” and “lack of transparency.” Webmaster's Commentary:

Live by the whistle blow, die by the whistle blow!

Assange is running an extortion racket with the information real whistleblowers send to him!

Please copy this link everywhere you can! Especially rub the corporate media's nose in this one, as they are accessories.

Now scientists claim climate change could give you cancer (in the week Doomsday warning of rising sea levels was rubbished)

Melting glaciers and ice sheets are releasing cancer-causing pollutants into the air and oceans, scientists say.The long-lasting chemicals get into the food chain and build up in people's bodies - triggering tumours, heart disease and infertility. Bovine excrement meter meltdown.

U.S. judge dismisses targeted-kill program lawsuit

A judge on Tuesday dismissed a lawsuit seeking to halt the Obama administration's program to capture or kill American citizens who join militant groups abroad, a case involving a Muslim cleric in Yemen. The ruling was a defeat for civil liberties groups that brought the lawsuit on behalf of the father of Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, a U.S. citizen who joined al Qaeda in Yemen and has been tied to plots against the United States.

"If the court's ruling is correct, the government has unreviewable authority to carry out the targeted killing of any American, anywhere, whom the president deems to be a threat to the nation," said Jameel Jaffer, the group's deputy legal director.

Webmaster's Commentary: Judge Bate's decision was entirely wrong, based on the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

As an American, Al-Awaki is entitled to trial by a jury of his peers and his day in court, no matter what he is alleged to have done or said.So, extradite the guy (if in fact he is still alive), and bring him to the US for a trial. However, institutionalizing extrajudicial assassinations as a tool of US statehood, is a very morally dangerous path the Obama administration has chosen, with some very dark potential outcomes in the future. The use of a tool like this in the Federal government's arsenal can very easily be used to silence any peaceful, logical, and reasoned criticism of that government's policies. This ruling will have repercussions far beyond the original case, and those repercussions may well turn deadly for the status of free speech in this country.


U.S. war veterans being killed with high-dose psychiatric drugs

Among those who recently died while taking AstraZeneca's blockbuster drug Seroquel are Marine corporals Andrew White and Chad Oligschlaeger. Both were being given multiple drugs, including Seroquel, for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Both died in their sleep. Before his death, White was being given more than double the maximum recommended Seroquel dose for patients suffering from schizophrenia.


Hapless Eurozone Emergency Meetings on How Big To Make New Bail-Out Funding? It Won't Matter!

In reality, discussions about "bailout" and "reassuring markets" are exercises in farce. Despite all the quacking, supposedly to calm the "bond markets," the bailout approach guarantees doom. Only financial reorganization through the Glass-Steagall principle can work.


Happy as a Hangman

Innocence, as defined by law, makes us complicit with the crimes of the state. To do nothing, to be judged by the state as an innocent, is to be guilty. It is to sanction, through passivity and obedience, the array of crimes carried out by the state.


TSA refuses to release inspection reports about X-ray machine safety

Airports have become a minefield of health hazards, and an investigation into airport safety has revealed that radiation emitted from various scanning machines is sometimes much higher than intended, putting workers and passengers at serious risk. And while the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) insists that the machines are safe, the agency refuses to release the actual safety inspection reports to back its claim.

Webmaster's Commentary:

We were told these machines were safe!

Then shoe salesmen started dying of cancer, which is why you don't see these in shoe stores any more.


Produced under the supervision of the US Surgeon General, this short film shows how to check the fit of shoes using the in-store x-ray machines which were common at the time. Indeed these machines, although declining in use in the 50s, were still found in shoe stores as late as 1981. And here is the message for the TSA workers. The United States Government insisted these machines were safe to use, right up to the time when shoe salesmen started dying from cancer caused by these devices. The US Government excused its error (and all those dead workers) by saying that the harmful nature of X-rays had not been fully understood at the time. This is important for the TSA workers to understand because they are in the same position as those shoe store salespeople. The US Government is telling you that those terahertz wave scanners are perfectly safe. But terahertz technology is just as new and unknown right now as X-rays were to those shoe stores. Already there is a growing body of evidence that these ultra small radio waves are triggering chemical changes in the skin, including damage to DNA. That you feel nothing at all from the radiation is of small consolation; those already-dead-while-walking shoe salesmen never felt anything either as they were zapped hour after hour, day after day, week after week, just as you feel nothing when you are zapped hour after hour, day after day, week after week.

This photo was published by Gizmodo a few weeks ago. If genuine, it is clear that the right arm of the TSA operator is visible in the background of the scanner output. If the TSA worker appears in the scan output, then the TSA worker was scanned, once for every passenger that goes through his scanner all day, every day, every week, every month, every year. You, the TSA pervert, are being zapped, hour after hour, day after day, week after week. The terahertz machines are not adequately shielded, based on that Gizmodo photo, just as those shoe store X-ray machines were not adequately shielded. You believe you are safe while operating those machines only because the government tells you are safe while operating those machines. But as you zap and fondle passengers this coming Thanksgiving weekend, consider this. Those machines cost much more than you do, and are a huge profit center for people in the government who have invested in the companies that make them. And, after all, this is the same government that assured us all Saddam had nuclear weapons. Could the government lie to you? Of course they could, and would, and probably do.

So while you get your jollies abusing the tourists, think of all those shoe salesmen who died lingering painful deaths because they too believed when the government said their equipment was safe to use.

As for those forced to endure the harassment of the TSA this holiday weekend, remember the words from Faust; "stipendium peccati mors est", the reward of sin is death. Should history repeat, then those TSA bullies exulting in their tyrannical power over you are all dead men (and women) walking.
