 Massive Ideological/Political Failures posted by stan, 2013-11-29 00:26:22
Plain to see, most of the great political 'isms’ of the 20th century have FAILED completely.
The binary opposing twins of communism/socialism-capitalism/democracy failed almost simultaneously though the latter was not given the press it deserved by the western, capitalist-run media; the unpleasant political reality that prevails today in most of the developed world is plutocratic totalitarianism -- which applies to the elites of China and Russia as much as it does to modern western totalitarian plutocracies.

[Canadian journalist] Eric Margolis’ factual inaccuracies regarding Oz multi-culturism notwithstanding, he did manage to get the most critical point -- Oz spying on Indonesia for the Americans -- right. (full story)

America's Plan to Kill Online Privacy Rights Everywhere posted by Colum Lynch via sirg, 2013-11-21 23:31:12
America is a very well known criminal quantity today; there is no disguising its attempts to implement a global Orwellian Big Brother State in order to prevent any opposition to its nefarious agenda of Imperial global domination. If we allow these plans to succeed then we deserve our fate -- that simple. Nevertheless, the enduring fact remains, the PEOPLE are the most powerful social force on the planet that is why the U.S. fears and designates EVERYONE as ENEMY. Ruling forces in America seek to destroy all public privacy while they continue to maintain their secrecy -- who is watching the PROVEN criminal watchers, I ask YOU? Act to prevent ALL such draconian policies before it's too late. (full story)

  Torturers, Mass Murderers and Wall St. Rogues Go Free, Hacktivist gets 10 Years posted by sem, 2013-11-17 02:39:55
After the tragedy of hacker Aaron Swartz, who suicided rather than face 30 years jail, the 10 year sentence handed down to Jeremy Hammond for serving truth and transparency in the public interest, is not surprising, though it makes one's blood boil nevertheless. (full story)

It's business [corporatism] that really rules us now posted by George Monbiot via sal, 2013-11-12 01:01:56
The mainstream media is now publishing what the alternative media have been posting for over TWO decades -- well duh, George, so NOW you KNOW! Better late than never but the approach should be more active and aggressive when dealing with issues that corrupt the system/government and enslave the masses. 'Flame it' like a dragon next time.

Australia's Enduring Shame posted by John Pilger via stan, 2013-11-07 01:28:08
To be the oldest continuous culture on the planet distinguishes a race, a people as valuable. Ancient petroglyphs in Western Australia were recently desecrated by gas extraction companies but then Oz is ruled by corporatists and the servile politicians that serve them.
Who could forget the cynical gesture by former PM, Kevin Rudd -- "I'm sorry" -- staged as a media event rather than as a remedial policy implementation; well, it's just not good enough, Kevin, we' re all bloody sorry, words are cheap, but what is being DONE to REMEDY the great wrongs inflicted on indigenous Australians and to innocent people everywhere?

 Sacred Geometry II posted by stylus, 2013-11-04 06:48:31
We now progress to the next three numeric principles -- 4,5,6 -- in the unfolding or development of ‘un-manifestation’ into manifestation. We have covered the monad, dyad and triad previously and reached the point of creative self-awareness, the ‘I am that I am,’ knowledge, yet we lack substance, as self-awareness does not necessarily involve matter.

 Furious Jakarta to haul in Australian ambassador over spying claims posted by Peter Alford and Brendan Nicholson via sam, 2013-10-31 22:36:53
It seems that the American puppet government of Indonesia is "furious" over alleged spying claims done by Oz at the behest of America -- an interesting scenario to say the least. The Oz ambassador has been "summoned," ta da! But not to make light of all this ridiculous posturing and pretence -- it is WIDELY known that both nations are firmly under the control of Washington -- this confrontation presents THE PERFECT opportunity to DEMAND the arrest and deportation of the KNOWN cold blooded Indonesian murderers of the BALIBO FIVE, notwithstanding that known murderers are now retired high government officials, nevertheless, war criminals and murderers remain stained until JUSTICE IS SERVED.

The National Security Agency apparently ripped a page from Rudy Giuliani’s campaign playbook and told its officials to cite the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks as justification for mass surveillance activities. (full story)
