 The Moral Paralysis of a Nation posted by shaz, 2013-08-21 12:35:11
The highest profile miscarriage of Justice in the WORLD occurred yesterday with the sentencing of brave young Bradley Manning by a military ‘court;’ Manning received 35 years jail for informing the WORLD that the Pentagon is a criminal organisation and by implication serves the interests of elite Corporate and Banking criminals rather than what it was constitutionally commissioned to do by the people, that is, protect the nation from its enemies, DOMESTIC and foreign -- killing 500,000 Iraqi children and over one million innocent civilians in a corporate OIL GRAB certainly does not fall within the bounds of legal military action.

  BPA -- Plastic Food Containers Proven Harmful posted by staff report via stace, 2013-08-21 01:02:22
Products like plastic bottles, plastic toys, tinned foods and soft drink cans made using the chemical Bisphenol A (BPA) have been linked to childhood obesity. Children who have higher levels of BPA – a plasticiser commonly used in food and beverage cans, sippy cups, bottles, toys and many other products for babies – had a greater risk of being obese, according to a new study.

 Bradley Manning Sentencing Arguments posted by skip, 2013-08-20 13:42:38
Manning's defence calls for maximum 25 years incarceration -- with a defence like that who cares what the prosecution argued! Instead of demanding exoneration for Manning and calling for the guilty to be prosecuted (I know) defence lawyers sold Brad down the river -- what did people expect from a farcical trial in a partial, illegal court? An independent international court dealing with war crimes was the only hope for Manning and his defence should have insisted on it! (full story)

 Fake Obama, Fake Terror Threat posted by Prof. James Petras via di, 2013-08-19 09:25:55
Is it a sign of sheer desperation, stealing the headlines away from the scandals that currently plague the world's leading civilian killing, terrorist nation, America? Or is it a sign of fraying/slipping, losing it, after all, how many false flag anthrax letters, 9/11's, grassy knolls, USS Liberties etc., can America take -- no more it seems, saturation has been reached?

 The Language of Sacred Geometry posted by stylus, 2013-08-18 01:24:30
A tradition which originated in ancient Egypt (perhaps earlier as ancient ‘Hindus’ record this knowledge) and taught to elite initiates for centuries, including the best Greek minds of the time, survives today but only just, as this period is one of the ‘darkest periods’ in the history of human evolution. I refer to the ‘language’ (which must be appreciated) of geometry that imparts more than is seen by casual observers or many of the best mathematicians today. (full story)

 Geniuses Who Used Drugs -- And Their Drug of Choice posted by aldous shakespeare, 2013-08-16 13:18:15
The article is interesting though it arrives at a false conclusion in that it attributes genius to the person and not to the effect of mind-transforming drugs. True, a certain predisposition is required to derive benefit from mind-expanding drugs; however, most (all) creative thinkers, artists, radicals etc that exist, think outside the prescribed 'box;' they are born to ride the wild wave of infinity outside the rigid formulas by which society lives. Religion, social conventions and other confines only appeal to frightened conservatives that are unable to face themselves. You see, from the perspective of infinity ALL becomes transparent, especially the mediocre machinations and convolutions of conservative minds and their fear-ridden (violent) behaviours. (full story)

 The Inverse World and ‘double speak’ of Barack ‘Amabo’ posted by ned, 2013-08-16 11:22:14
I could hardly believe my ears when I heard Obama delivering a press statement today in relation to the ongoing violence in Egypt. “We deplore violence against civilians,” he said, while America REMAINS the world’s leading civilian killing nation, notwithstanding the fact that Obama himself presides over a monstrous civilian killing Drone war in which HE compiles ‘kill lists’ for his fleet of Drones! Now, call me old fashioned if you wish but my memory extends past the last 24 hours and my ability to focus and concentrate on one subject exceeds that of reading a postage stamp! (full story)

 Bradley Manning’s Final Plea and Jumping to Hasty Conclusions posted by jude, 2013-08-15 15:18:35
I could cite a few historical examples but I won’t, simply because the masses are not worth a pinch of shit, nor do they deserve a detailed explanation; however, a succinct appraisal is warranted. (full story)

 G’Day Damascus: Extremist Australians Joining Syria’s Rebels in Large Numbers posted by baz, 2013-08-15 02:21:45
O, fuckin' great! Just what Oz needs, hundreds of battle hardened, war savvy, Muslim extremists returning to Oz after fighting/killing with Sharia fanatics in Syria! Good work Bob 'yes Washington' Carr and ASIO fuckwits. Solution is simple, we do not support terrorist extremists here; anyone is free to go and NOT return as America's wars are proven criminal enterprises, pure and simple. Fanatic Muslim fighters can go to the US where they belong -- birds of the fanatic and criminal feather. These neo-con wars are Zionist backed criminal interventions and are not justified by any stretch. 'Regime Change,' because that's what this war is, remains ILLEGAL under international LAW!
