bbcwtc7.jpg image British Man Wins Legal Case against BBC for 9/11 Cover-Up EV via bob, Sunday, Mar 22 2015, 8:57pm
Horsham, UK, 2013 – Tony Rooke, in an act of civil disobedience, refused to pay the mandatory £130 TV license fee claiming it violates Section 15 of the Terrorism Act. Rooke’s accusation was aimed at the BBC who reported the collapse of WTC 7 over 20 minutes before it actually fell, and the judge accepted Rooke’s argument. While it was not a public inquiry into 9/11, the recognition of the BBC’s actions on September 11th are considered a small victory, one that was never reported in the US. (story and 1 image)

Julian Assange image Assange likely to remain in embassy pending U.S. Wikileaks probe Mark Hosenball via stan, Saturday, Mar 21 2015, 10:47pm
Personally I have no time for Assange as he broke the cardinal rule for hackers, ANONYMITY, and set an appalling example for young hackers, many of whom have since been rounded up and given long jail sentences; Assange and others are now paying the price for seeking personal notoriety -- skilled young hackers beware! Nevertheless, Assange's flawed personality issues aside, there are critical issues at stake, not least exposing State crimes, journalistic integrity and freedom of speech. Assange's forced confinement is not only the result of his own stupidity but is an indictment on Australian conservative government's that make a practice of licking American arse and feeding their own citizens to the dogs, I refer to the outrageous surrender of the 'Bali nine' to a barbaric nation that executes drug offenders, the AFP has much to answer for in this regard and the current Abbott government has much to answer for for not lifting a finger to effectively assist Oz CITIZEN, Assange.

text We are Not Impotent Americans - Fracking is being Stopped in Oz frank, Friday, Mar 20 2015, 10:21pm
Democracy -- or people power -- lives in Australia, ‘fracking’ is now a major State election issue in NSW, which proves to all citizens that corporate friendly conservative governments can be ousted if they arrogantly and contemptuously ignore the wishes and will of the people and it is widely known that the Australian people are extremely protective of their home/nation.

The decision by major European powers to join the $50 billion China-backed Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) is a significant blow to the United States. It is a clear sign that, amidst deepening global stagnation, the economic mechanisms through which the US has exerted its hegemony are breaking down as other imperialist powers assert their independent interests.

text Mega-wealthy Western Elite Losing its Grip on World Paul Craig Roberts via stan, Wednesday, Mar 18 2015, 9:14pm
Ancient Samurai were aware that bloody hands lose their grip on weapons and so they used shark skin to compensate for this potentially fatal combat problem. However, Asians are far more adept, creative and ingenious than the corporate bought dunces that populate Congress and the puppets in the Whitehouse. It appears that Asian or Eastern guile and ingenuity will once again prevail against a brutish, mass murdering, rustic enemy.

The nation with the bloodiest hands in the current war between East and West is undoubtedly America and it has not been able to compensate or mitigate the problem as metaphorically described above. And so the slow but very sure and steady progress/strategies of the East will inevitably prevail as money ALWAYS follows money; the forced and unwelcomed allegiances to Washington are evaporating as I write.

Let’s face it: we live in a state of pervasive national security anxiety. There are various possible responses to this low-grade fever that saps resolve, but first we have to face the basis for that anxiety -- what I’ve come to think of as the Big Dick School of Patriotism, or (since anything having to do with our present version of national security, even a critique of it, has to have an acronym) the BDSP.

Tony Abbott and Mike Baird, full of shit! image Tony Abbott Hasn’t Changed One Iota stan, Monday, Mar 16 2015, 2:20am
Abbott’s latest appalling gaffe – a “ life-style choice” -- regarding the impoverished indigenous population, is typical of his combative, Darwinian mindset, nothing new, and that is the point, he views the vulnerable and weak with contempt, his heartless attack on young students and the aged/vulnerable in our community is known, those actions speak the truth about Abbott and his Libs; all Abbott has done recently, to lift the opinion polls, is put on a mask, his more contentious policies, like the medicare co-payment/tax, have simply been put on the backburner not abandoned. Abbott is now attempting to deceive the public with a disposable persona fixed to his face with MORE LIES and more duplicity – it’s all bullshit, just more of his public fakery, deception and duplicitous nature, this ‘leopard’ will NEVER change his spots, as is obvious now to all.

obamaworldflareup.jpg image ISIL and US Empire – Their Unholy Alliance Fully Exposed Joachim Hagopian via larry, Thursday, Mar 12 2015, 2:03am
Let’s be perfectly clear. The United States is not actually at war with ISIS. As Global Research director, economist and author Michel Chossudovsky plainly points out recently, Obama is simply waging “a fake war” against the Islamic State forces, putting on another propaganda show for mainstream media to keep his flock of American sheeple asleep in echo-chambered darkness. With a mere cursory review of recent historical events, one can readily realize that virtually everything Big Government tells us is happening in the world, you can bet is a boldface lie.

Chelsea (Bradley) Manning image CIA torturers and the leaders who approved their actions must face the Law Chelsea E Manning via dulcie, Wednesday, Mar 11 2015, 11:45pm
Successful intelligence gathering through interrogation and other forms of human interaction by conventional means can be – and more often than not are – very successful. But, even though interrogation by less conventional methods might get glorified in popular culture – in television dramas like Law and Order: Criminal Intent, 24 and The Closer and movies like Zero Dark Thirty – torture and the mistreatment of detainees in the custody of intelligence personnel is, was and shall continue to be unethical and morally wrong. Under US law, torture and mistreatment of detainees is also highly illegal. (story and 1 image)

Democracy is MAJORITY rule, by direct participation and/or representation. Abbott and the Libs are clearly an anti-democratic, minority CORPORATE serving government, the contempt comservatives have for the people is self evident. Do not be beguiled by the privately owned CORPORATE mass media and its 24 hour 'news' cycle, which is designed to wipe the memory clean each day -- REMEMBER! (story and 2 images)

Hillary Clinton, liar (Sarajevo) and known servant of the global elite image The Useless‭ ‬Hillary Clinton‭ ‬Debate‭ ‬on the‭ ‬Next‭ ‬Presidency shirl, Sunday, Mar 8 2015, 8:11pm
All one need do is take a good look at this woman‭’‬s and her husband‭’‬s links to the shadowy Bilderberg group.‭ ‬When‭ ‬Hillary‭ ‬Clinton was running‭ ‬against Obama for the‭ ‬Democrat‭ ‬nomination‭ ‬some years ago,‭ ‬the‭ ‬gruelling‭ ‬race‭ ‬was settled when both attended a Bilderberg meeting in Virginia.‭ ‬The‭ ‬internal party‭ ‬battle‭ ‬was settled at that meeting by‭ ‬the‭ ‬non-representative‭ ‬global elite‭;‬ Obama runs and Clinton should wait for her‭ ‬allotted‭ ‬time,‭ ‬which is the next presidential election.‭ ‬A little research‭ ‬clearly reveals‭ ‬the sordid picture of a woman that is an undisguised servant of the self-serving global elite.

text Washington's Covert Links to ISIL: The Evidence Tim Anderson via tom, Sunday, Mar 8 2015, 6:38pm
Reports that US and British aircraft carrying arms to the Islamic State group – better known as ISIS - have been shot down by Iraqi forces have been met with shock and denial in western countries. Few in the Middle East doubt that Washington is playing a ‘double game’ with its proxy armies in Syria, but some key myths remain important amongst the significantly more ignorant Western audiences.

Tariq Ali image The Time Is Ripe for Revolution Chris Hedges via stan, Saturday, Mar 7 2015, 6:08am
Tariq Ali is part of the royalty of the left. His more than 20 books on politics and history, his seven novels, his screenplays and plays and his journalism in the Black Dwarf newspaper, the New Left Review and other publications have made him one of the most trenchant critics of corporate capitalism. He hurls rhetorical thunderbolts and searing critiques at the oily speculators and corporate oligarchs who manipulate global finance and the useful idiots in the press, the political system and the academy who support them. The history of the late part of the 20th century and the early part of the 21st century has proved Ali, an Oxford-educated intellectual and longtime gadfly who once stood as a Trotskyist candidate for Parliament in Britain, to be stunningly prophetic.
