  Google's algorithms are Spying and Manipulating your search results posted by Paul Craig Roberts via jill, 2017-08-08 22:33:03
The Google engineer, a Harvard Ph.D., who raised questions about the non-fact-based ideological culture within the Google organization has been identified and fired. Sundar Pichai, Google's CEO, said that the employee in expressing his views had violated Google's code of conduct and had crossed "the line by advancing harmful gender stereotypes in our workplace." The employee, James Damore, confirms that he was fired for "perpetuating gender stereotypes" by expressing his views. (full story)

 The US-Led West and International Terrorism posted by Prof. Jules Dufour via gail, 2017-08-08 01:19:59
The fallacious discourse propagated in the international political arena continues to legitimize Western warfare operations, by hiding the factors behind them. This assertion is corroborated by all those who have understood the underlying stratagems of propaganda of power politics. Two of them, Noam Chomsky and André Vltchek, proposed an analysis of this global situation in a book published by Éditions écosociété, entitled “The Wes’ Terrorism [L’Occident Terroriste]. From Hiroshima to the Drones’ War”. They give a picture of past centuries: (full story)

As US Inequality Breeds Oligarchy, New Report Details Pathway to Equity posted by Jake Johnson via james, 2017-08-08 01:02:17
Pervasive and growing inequality is corroding American democracy, and only ambitious solutions—including healthcare for all, a living wage, and the elimination of corporate money from the political process—will be sufficient to remedy the crisis. (full story)

 Google’s chief search engineer legitimizes new censorship algorithm posted by Andre Damon via jane, 2017-08-08 00:36:46
Between April and June, Google completed a major revision of its search engine that sharply curtails public access to Internet web sites that operate independently of the corporate and state-controlled media. Since the implementation of the changes, many left wing, anti-war and progressive web sites have experienced a sharp fall in traffic generated by Google searches. The World Socialist Web Site has seen, within just one month, a 70 percent drop in traffic from Google. (full story)

Neocons Leverage Trump-Hate for More Wars posted by Robert Parry via claire, 2017-08-06 22:45:31
A savvy Washington observer once told me that the political reality about the neoconservatives is that they alone couldn’t win you a single precinct in the United States. But both Republicans and Democrats still line up to gain neocon support or at least neocon acceptance. (full story)

For Those That Imagine Otherwise posted by suzie, 2017-08-06 00:40:36
For the uninformed that either do not understand the treacherous power of the US Deep State or disregard it as fanciful, consider how it assassinated JFK and framed patsy Oswald; after which, the same nefarious group killed his brother Robert. Coincidence? Not likely, the Kennedy’s vigorously opposed the CIA and other Deep State forces and so they were murdered by the Deep State along with MLK and numerous others in a spate of assassinations and murders of political and even pop star activists, including Hendrix, as a London hospital employee exposed -- indeed Mr “business man” (oligarchs and plutocrats) don’t point your plastic finger at me! RIP, Jimi. (full story)

 Fake News A US Media Speciality posted by Paul Craig Roberts via dulcie, 2017-08-05 22:15:12
The American media specializes in fake news. Indeed, since the Clinton regime the American media has produced nothing but fake news. Do you remember the illegal US bombing and destruction of Yugoslavia? Do you remember "war criminal" Slobodan Milosevic, the Serbian president branded "the butcher of the Balkans," who was compared to Hitler until Hillary passed the title on to the President of Russia? Milosevic, not Bill Clinton, was arrested and placed on trial at the International Criminal Tribunal. He died in prison, some say murdered, before he was cleared of charges by the International Criminal Tribunal. (full story)

 Commonwealth Bank of Australia facing $1 trillion penalty for breaches of money laundering laws posted by Belinda Jepsen via shirl, 2017-08-05 00:23:44
The Commonwealth Bank was once a national citizen-owned bank and was never plagued with scandals and unethical behaviour. However, former corrupt puppet PM Paul Keating deregulated the banking sector and delivered the Commonwealth Bank to the private sector, after which it was riddled with the usual private sector scandals -- what did you expect, Australia, especially with foreign CEOs?

 Neocons: The Enemy Within posted by jake, 2017-08-04 23:02:03
Trump has already deferred his presidential prerogatives and authority to the Pentagon, the CIA and other agencies, ALL servile to the global financial elite, which group is manically profit-only driven but with a good dash of insanity. (full story)

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has been caught out after a leaked transcript of his phone call with US President Donald Trump showed Australia's agreement to take refugees from Central America was part of a quid-pro-quo arrangement even though the government has long denied such a deal.

Who is Responsible? posted by claire, 2017-08-03 00:50:25
Take a good look around, runaway climate change, social discord, national leader comic book characters that know very little if anything about international politics. Nations are run by millionaire and billionaire elitists that pretend to represent the people -- what a tragic joke it all is. So the question begs, who is responsible for the current status quo and appalling global state of affairs? (full story)

Colour Revolution -- made in America for America posted by cyd, 2017-08-02 06:09:26
Colour revolutions as we have known them are a cesspool of CIA, deep state and NGO intrigues designed to replace a foreign national leader with a compliant Washington lackey. Numerous international governments have been successfully removed by this tried and tested method. (full story)

“Bought Journalists” -- it's about time someone published the Truth posted by James F. Tracy via jill, 2017-08-01 06:53:31
Today's western journalists have sold out, critical news is intentionally downplayed or overlooked so as not to alarm the public with the truth about their respective governments. Journalists with integrity have been displaced with young, naive, eager and editorially controlled lackeys that suffer from job anxiety and debt slavery, which lame troop are all too willing to sell-out the primary and fundamental journalistic ethic, publish the TRUTH without fear or favour!
The following story is real, that means reality/truth-based, a rare report these days in a world of journalist prostitutes. How sad for them, as the truth always prevails and their names will be trashed and join the scoundrels that they failed to report the truth about. But yea, I've got my name and contorted articles in the mass media, silly fools. (full story)
