Down the Rabbit Hole posted by anton, 2013-06-03 09:57:04
The two most relevant authors today are George Orwell and Lewis Carroll -- who would have thought that the real world would become as these two visionary authors so uncannily described it? (full story)

‘The Right Stuff’ -- Bradley Manning posted by Staff report via stan, 2013-05-31 13:14:06
I recall a movie of that name portraying US test pilots as incredibly brave heroes in the era of rapidly developing fighter jets -- it was an entertaining semi-fiction-doco piece. The dauntless pilots were classic alpha types, some would say insane for pushing known faulty aircraft designs past their limits and paying the ultimate price. But alpha type personalities thrive on danger and risk and while not in that category I know how it is to be an ‘alpha type’ personality; after leaving high school I undertook a very high paying dangerous job in order to quickly earn enough to head for Asia to study philosophy and smoke the world’s best charas.

Modern Israel's Deteriorating Image in the World posted by will, 2013-05-31 08:32:48
The first thing we must realise is that modern Israel is a stolen State; it was carved out of Palestine through the influence of Zionist Bankers in Europe the UK and USA after WWII. However, plans to create an independent Jewish State by extremely wealthy and influential European Jews were known to exist at least a century before WWII, as the recorded history of the Rothschild family reveals. The other major issue relating to Israel is political, Israel is NOT a democracy as is very often claimed -- the overwhelming majority of its population are Muslims, Christians and other non-Jews, therefore, these groups have been deliberately denied a FAIR VOTE in order to maintain the racial purity of Israel's government.

UN: Killer robots could fight WAR WITHOUT END posted by Simon Sharwood via gus, 2013-05-31 00:21:59
We are aware of two critical realities in relation to the following story: 1. We know never to take any text at face value, so what does the subtext or secondary (dominant) layer subliminal discourse articulate in the following report, or what is being sold to readers and by whom? 2. Robots are decades away from autonomous function, they require extreme maintenance in the form of HUMAN intervention almost on a continuous basis to be able to function, especially energy or power systems, parts replacements/repairs and critical weapons refits, ammunitions etc -- that is the REALITY. Robots have a very short fully functional life without human intervention. Given current realities, the story simply describes another form of CRIMINAL human warfare. (full story)

Israel Warns Russia -- Clear Proof that Tel Aviv Controls Washington posted by staff report via davey, 2013-05-29 00:07:10
The following media news reports would seem reminiscent of exchanges at the 'Mad Hatters Tea Party;' however, a little analysis reveals that a Jewish flea is only able to challenge a Slavic bear if it is assured of greater support, and that assurance seems established. So, if you're looking for the lunatics that would precipitate a third world war then look no further than Zionist Israel and its Washington puppets! (full story)

ASIO HQ Oz Spy Agency sensitive data, Hacked posted by lyx, 2013-05-27 10:30:46
Ho-hum, sensitive blueprints for Australia’s new spy agency (ASIO) headquarters have been hacked and traced to a ‘bot’ in China, if that trace report can be believed -- and people wonder why allied nations are disinclined to share sensitive data with Aussie idiots. The irony is that Aussies are also in the ranks of the world’s elite hackers and always have been, notwithstanding that Assange is a major failure and disappointment as a hacker. (full story)

World Bank Insider Blows Whistle on Corruption, Federal Reserve posted by Alex Newman via stan, 2013-05-27 07:51:39
A former insider at the World Bank, ex-Senior Counsel Karen Hudes, says the global financial system is dominated by a small group of corrupt, power-hungry figures centered around the privately owned U.S. Federal Reserve. The network has seized control of the media to cover up its crimes, too, she explained. In an interview with The New American, Hudes said that when she tried to blow the whistle on multiple problems at the World Bank, she was fired for her efforts. Now, along with a network of fellow whistleblowers, Hudes is determined to expose and end the corruption. And she is confident of success. (full story)
