Desperate dunce Abbott doing a Bush -- get real, you clown image It’s About Trust darcy, Wednesday, Aug 26 2015, 11:16am
Indeed, today, worldwide almost no-one trusts their governments and political leaders, why? Simply due to the FACT that politicians everywhere are a pack of self-interested liars and scoundrels that engage in anything but representing the people and serving the national interest. They lack vision, a coherent narrative and real policies other than what is prescribed/dictated by elite corporate and banker interests -- and who do these institutions represent, themselves of course, so democracy – majority rule -- has become a farce, a pathetic joke everywhere. Is this situation sustainable? You can bet your life it isn’t! (story and 1 image)

text ‘Digital Disruption’ zed, Tuesday, Aug 25 2015, 8:34am
"Digital disruption" is a quaint term invented and used by the corporate elite to signify massive loss of jobs in the near future -- approximately 40 percent of the current workforce -- due to robotics and the increased automisation of daily life. They view this phenomenon as inevitable, naturally, as it increases profits without the ‘burden’ of the human factor. And so goes the callousness of corporations that too easily forget that it was human workers that propelled them to their current status/success.

Kevin Andrews and Tony Abbott, two spineless lying clowns image Oz Defence Minister Straining to Comply with Washington's Illegal Request via sal, Tuesday, Aug 25 2015, 2:55am
Oz defence minister Kevin 'Haneef' Andrews, already known for his 'integrity' and servility is straining to comply with Washington's request for Oz to illegally bomb Syria, a sovereign State embroiled in a civil war. Regardless of other factors that act would contravene international law, pure and simple, there are simply no legal excuses to perpetrate this criminal act. (story and 1 image)

text Democracy and Justice Abandoned by the Masses shirl, Tuesday, Aug 25 2015, 12:48am
Don’t kid yourself, you do not live in a functioning democracy no matter where you live in the world today. Plutocracy reigns, mega-wealthy oligarchs and plutocrats openly install and depose servile national leaders (Mr Murdoch) which now consider deceiving populations and serving elite interests as natural.

MiG-31 image Russian Military Engages in Syria Thierry Meyssan via val, Monday, Aug 24 2015, 11:07pm
A profound and significant change has just occurred in the Levant – the Russian army has begun to engage against terrorism in Syria. Although Russia has been absent from the international scene since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and although it is moving with care, it has just created a Russo-Syrian Commission, has begun supplying weapons, sharing intelligence, and sending advisors. All of this is more or less coordinated with the White House. (story and 1 image)

text Ending Government Rule of the Elites, by the Elites, for the Elites Robert Abele via gail, Monday, Aug 24 2015, 8:27am
By now it is nearly commonplace that the specific American system of capitalist governance has resulted in a hollowing-out of U.S. democracy, which now serves the interests of economic elites rather than the people. One of the primary examples of this is how the Obama administration is handling the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP): a top-secret process that will affect the lives of each individual living in the countries which agree to it, yet the negotiators are a few government officials (i.e. the Office of the United States Trade Representative) and 600 corporations,excluding Congress, and with no voice from or for the people themselves, nor any concern involving the citizens (see Paul Craig Roberts, “TTIP: The Corporate Empowerment Act”).

text Breaking the Fear Factor: Dismantling Propaganda, Opposing War, Financial Fraud and State Terrorism Peter Koenig via sam, Monday, Aug 24 2015, 8:13am
We are living in a (western) world dominated by neoliberal dictators, criminals and crooks. And many of us, impregnated with the human idiocy, as so well described by Andre Vltcheck (The West Spreads Intellectual Idiocy) are every day deeper and deeper immersed into fear – fear of action, fear of what’s next – fear of losing our comfort zone. The western propaganda machine paid for by the corporate and financial oligarchy through the presstitute media is constantly indoctrinating the little we have left of our free-thinking brains.

Are we witnessing the corruption of central banks? Are we observing the money-creating powers of central banks being used to drive up prices in the stock market for the benefit of the mega-rich?

text America: a war zone where justice is missing in action Paul Craig Roberts via stan, Saturday, Aug 22 2015, 2:56am
America’s First Black President is a traitor to his race and also to justice. Obama has permitted the corrupt US Department of Justice (sic), over which he wields authority, to overturn the ruling of a US Federal Court of Appeals that prisoners sentenced illegally to longer terms than the law permits must be released once the legal portion of their sentence is served. The DOJ, devoid of all integrity, compassion, and sense of justice, said that “finality” of conviction was more important than justice. Indeed, the US Justice (sic) Department’s motto is: “Justice? We don’t need no stinkin’ justice!”

dismalmaid.jpg image Revolutionary Street Artist Banksy opens 'dismal-land' theme park Abby Zimet via jaxie, Saturday, Aug 22 2015, 2:38am
After much secrecy, street artist and anarchist extraordinaire Banky has transformed a derelict seaside resort into his largest project yet: a dystopian "family theme park unsuitable for small children” boasting a decrepit castle, a Grim Reaper, a mangled Cinderella, a predatory loan booth, a pond for boats jammed with dead bodies and asylum seekers, an armor-plated, Northern-Ireland-era riot control vehicle become a kids' slide, a representation of 3,000 riot police called in the aftermath of major civil unrest a surly assemblage of greeters wearing Mickey Mouse ears and t-shirts reading, "Dismal," and an array of seriously macabre art by 50 artists hand-picked by Banksy, plus 10 of his own pieces.

Obama pets his dog, Abbott image Reprehensible corporate and Washington Lackey Tony Abbott “considers” war with Sovereign Syria. darcy, Friday, Aug 21 2015, 8:38am
Bombing targets in Syria without a formal request from its leader amounts to declaring war -- that is what servile, spineless dog Abbott is considering. The fact that the US created the mess in the Middle East seems to escape Abbott, we were all taught as children to take responsibility for our actions, however, the US takes a different self-serving stance, when it soils its nappy it wants its lackey vassals to wipe its arse and clean the mess for it -- give international law and common sense a break, Abbott.

text “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests BUT …” jake, Wednesday, Aug 19 2015, 11:22am
I am not a religionist, God forbid (lol) though I have read the New Testament four times, principally as a manual for social reform and the elimination of corrupt social hierarchies, however, I do not completely dismiss the text only the obvious fantasy/theological aspects. So I would share a favourite saying of the mythic Christ: “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the son of man has no place to lay his head [to rest].” (Matt. 8:20) The implication being that Jesus was otherworldly.

EXHIBIT - 4 image If You Cannot Distinguish Between Black and White Literally You Are in Big Trouble james, Wednesday, Aug 19 2015, 2:11am
The link below leads to a highly detailed legal and police report regarding the alleged guilt of the younger so-called, Boston bomber. Evidence furnished by the FBI clearly indicates that the accused is carrying a WHITE knapsack not the BLACK knapsack which contained the improvised, pressure-cooker explosive device, according to the FBI; now that reality reduces to a simple conclusion based on the ability to distinguish black from white, however, it would seem that America is incapable of performing the simplest distinction in this case. The entire legal theatre of this case is worthy of the great satirical writers of literary history; this case is almost as ludicrous as the trial of Chelsea (Bradley) Manning, in which the criminally accused Pentagon sat in judgement of the moral accuser and sentenced him/her to 35 years incarceration for exposing state crimes against humanity.
