armedpolice.jpg image Are Police in America Now a Military, Occupying Force? John Whitehead via sam, Friday, Aug 9 2013, 2:05am
Despite the steady hue and cry by government agencies about the need for more police, more sophisticated weaponry, and the difficulties of preserving the peace and maintaining security in our modern age, the reality is far different. Indeed, violent crime in America has been on a steady decline, and if current trends continue, Americans will finish the year 2013 experiencing the lowest murder rate in over a century.

17yo Israel Hernandez-Llach, murdered by Miami Police image Trigger-happy Police Taser Unarmed Teen to Death judd, Friday, Aug 9 2013, 1:39am
The prevailing myth propagated by Police State LIARS is that Tasers are a 'non-lethal' weapon, well, tell that to the dead Taser victims and their families. Another youth has been murdered by Taser-happy police who resorted to the weapon when NO THREAT of VIOLENCE was evident! (story and 1 image)

colesstayingdown.jpg image Wesfarmers Coles and the ALP Connection shopper, Wednesday, Aug 7 2013, 2:26am
I have written extensively on the thoroughly inept, paralysed, and according to the regulator, DISHONEST/DECEPTIVE management of Coles supermarket chain; so it comes as no surprise to learn that one of Wesfarmers Coles’ senior executives, Mr Andrew Charlton -- perhaps one that was involved in the roll-out of the clearly inappropriate ice display trays, has a cosy relationship with Kevin ‘do-nothing’ Rudd. [Readers should note the ongoing issue of Coles placing frost INTOLERANT vegetables on ice for extended periods, which severely damages stock and reduces storage life AFTER purchase.] (story and 1 image)

text Morally Bankrupt jess, Tuesday, Aug 6 2013, 1:20am
So few‭ ‬people‭ ‬today value‭ ‬conduct based on morality,‭ ‬ethics,‭ ‬cooperation,‭ ‬mutual assistance and civilised values and even less are willing to uphold and defend these values‭ ‬--‭ ‬values which‭ ‬took humankind‭ ‬thousands of years to‭ ‬develop and refine‭ – ‬in fact,‭ ‬these values were necessary‭ ‬for‭ ‬the formation of all‭ ‬large,‭ viable ‬human societies.

text Mrs Manning: My son is "Superman" tide, Sunday, Aug 4 2013, 11:37am
Brad Manning's mother utilised the mass media to send a public message to her son, Bradley: "Susan Manning said he should know she considered him her "Superman". "Never give up hope, son," she was quoted as saying. "I know I may never see you again, but I know you will be free one day. I pray it is soon."

text Orchestrated Global 'Terrorist' Alert to Counter Bad Press visible, Sunday, Aug 4 2013, 12:21am
Yes indeed, the world's SUSTAINED focus on the LAWLESS criminals that control Washington today is proving too uncomfortable for the ruling Plutocracy; the Manning trial, Snowden, illegal NSA global surveillance etc; and wouldn't you know it, Washington has just issued a 'timely' GLOBAL TERRORIST ALERT for all US citizens -- LOL! Well, if nothing else it demonstrates the disconnect and insularity of the ruling elite -- the population is familiar/immune to fear inducing social management tactics as a result of the Bush regime overdoing it.

Plutocrat, Murdoch image Murdoch orders his chief assassin to dispatch Rudd baz, Saturday, Aug 3 2013, 12:42pm
Rudd had earned the ire of Murdoch before he was knifed by his then deputy, Gillard. Rudd simply would not do as he was told by the plutocrats, no matter how idiotic the errand. For instance, Murdoch had ordered Rudd to form a 'NATO of the South Pacific,' an imbecilic notion given the regional REALITY. Rudd ran the errand at a regional summit and failed, naturally. But Murdoch is unused to being defied, no matter how unrealistic the order/task from the CFR, so it was goodbye Rudd the narcissist and hello Gillard the Washington CFR doormat but also, as the 'boys' discovered later, the most inept, toxic and reviled politician on earth!

text "XKeyScore" Easily Circumvented skip, Saturday, Aug 3 2013, 4:52am
Firstly, the latest alarming (for gullible morons) revelation from Snowden/Greenwald is the search and aggregate NSA package named "XKeyScore," which has the ability to track your every movement on the Internet; the Guardian link covers it adequately. However, it is far from the Big Brother wet dream of the most anal control freaks, as it has a serious inadequacy, which Snowden revealed -- and this man/agent is very noticeably careful with his words.

Treasonous, Howard, Rudd and Gillard image 'The Himalayan Angle' and the Repercussions for Australia Wayne Madsen via shlomo, Saturday, Aug 3 2013, 3:03am
This piece, by Wayne Madsen, concerns Australia as it confirms that Oz will be used as a platform by America in a very likely (read on) future conflict with China -- Australians can thank treasonous Gillard for signing over FIVE (5) nuclear capable US bases to be constructed on our soil and allowing our ports to be used by nuclear armed US Navy vessels, from which -- it is becoming more obvious by the day -- America would launch attacks on China.

Bradley Manning, Hero of our time image Some Achieve Greatness and some have Greatness Thrust Upon Them ... nano, Friday, Aug 2 2013, 2:57am
As history is my guide and witness, Bradley Manning’s supremely HEROIC gesture of revealing the truth of a criminal Pentagon and a thoroughly corrupt White House has done more to overthrow the corrupt, criminal powers that have hijacked American democracy than the efforts of many others combined -- Manning is truly a MAN of destiny!

Victim of a criminally corrupt State image Bradley Manning Verdict Convicts the Pentagon and Washington Paul Craig Roberts via sam, Friday, Aug 2 2013, 2:04am
Bradley Manning’s conviction is more conclusive evidence that the US government is illegitimate. It did not take place in a real court with a real jury. The military officer who served as a “judge” was not impartial. Manning was convicted for obeying the US Military Code and doing his sworn duty to report war crimes. There is no difference between Manning’s “conviction” and the “conviction” of Bukharin as a capitalist spy. Both trials were political trials. (story and 2 images)

Rudd dutifully implements Reserve Bank levy on savings image Global Financial Meltdown Inevitable Sid, Thursday, Aug 1 2013, 2:21am
In a recent interview on Fox News, flamboyant American billionaire Donald Trump, predicted an American financial meltdown due to “ballooning national debt,” which interestingly goes against the arrogant public statement of former Fed chief Alan Greenspan, who almost laughed when confronted with the proposition that American debt may undermine the nation; to paraphrase, ‘it is impossible for a nation that prints the world’s default currency to be debt constrained, we would simply print our way out of debt if the need arose!’ [Search youtube for his comments.]

Do not be deceived, there are many misleading and contradictory reports about this "levy" in the local press; however, the fact remains, the idea was initially recommended to government by Genn Stevens, governor of the (RBA) Reserve Bank Australia -- have we got it, now? This unjustified, external lien on personal savings is an Australian precedent and represents the thin end of the wedge; recent history verifies the fact, take another look at new Bank legislation in Cyprus, Europe and the USA (story and 1 image)

text America is Running out of Suitable Psychopaths jed, Wednesday, Jul 31 2013, 3:12am
The ruling plutocracy is lamenting. With Obama’s use-by date exceeded, this puppet president is now fully transparent and so ‘on the nose’ he is rank. As a result of ‘his’ liberal kill list, Drone wars, indefinite detention and global surveillance policies, etc., he is no longer viable to remain in office. So who is being groomed to replace him?

Pfc. Bradley Manning -- abandoned by the amoral American Population image Bradley Manning: The Expected 'Looking Glass' Verdict Ed Pilkington via Alice, Tuesday, Jul 30 2013, 4:05pm
Manning was found guilty of 20 of the 22 charges brought against him by a proven criminal organisation (U.S. military) which, according to reason, ethics and logic, effectively defines Manning as INNOCENT! Meanwhile the war criminals Manning exposed were indirectly found innocent and sentenced to freedom. Such is American 'justice' today! (story and 2 images)

Should be: "Free Brad Manning, Indict the Guilty" image The Manning Trial and Criminal Inversion judd, Monday, Jul 29 2013, 11:20am
I just read that Bradley Manning supporters from more than 40 cities in America staged a demonstration at the offices of Maj. Gen. Jeffrey S. Buchanan (note that name), convening authority of Manning’s case in Washington. Unsurprisingly, the peaceful efforts of protesters were to no avail, as the vast majority of Americans allow the killing of INNOCENT little children in illegal wars and the railroading of Manning to continue, notwithstanding that it was for the people that Manning sacrificed his personal Freedom and well-being – the ‘gratitude’ of the American people is beyond measure, to be sure!
