text U.S. Senate Votes to Restore Net Neutrality jaxie, Wednesday, May 16 2018, 8:44pm
Pressure from approx. 16 million US citizens seemed to sway the US Senate, however, it's the House of Reps that counts -- the battle is far from over.

text The New Age of Petty Bureaucratic Tyrannies John W. Whitehead via james, Wednesday, May 16 2018, 7:53pm
We labour today under the weight of countless tyrannies, large and small, carried out in the name of the national good by an elite class of government officials who are largely insulated from the ill effects of their actions, which inflict hardship on an overtaxed, over regulated, and under represented populace.

gaza22.jpg image Deceptive US Propaganda Apparatus (Mass Media) Whitewashes Gaza Massacre Joe Lauria via jaxie, Tuesday, May 15 2018, 9:43pm
Typical of the mindset of corporate media reporting on what happened in Gaza on Monday as Israeli soldiers killed more than 50 protesting Palestinians, is this tweet from CNN. It says: “Death toll rises to at least 52 people during clashes along the border fence between Israel and Gaza, Palestinian officials say. More than 2,400 people have been injured.” CNN’s new slogan is “ #FactsFirst.” (story and 1 image)

text The Mass Murdering U.S. Military Takes Us Through the Gates of Hell Tom Engelhardt via justin, Tuesday, May 15 2018, 9:13pm
As I was putting the finishing touches on my new book, the Costs of War Project at Brown University’s Watson Institute published an estimate of the taxpayer dollars that will have gone into America’s war on terror from September 12, 2001, through fiscal year 2018. That figure: a cool $5.6 trillion (including the future costs of caring for our war vets). On average, that’s at least $23,386 per taxpayer.

Slaughter of the Innocent by 'Zion-Nazis' image Killing Gaza The Israeli Perpetrated Palestinian Genocide Chris Hedges via james, Tuesday, May 15 2018, 8:31pm
The slow but steady genocide of Palestinians MUST CEASE. The criminal outrage of Israel slaughtering UNARMED Palestinian protesters exercising their inalienable rights to free speech and peaceful protest today demonstrates that the UN and Hague courts are nothing more than facilitators of CRIME perpetrated by criminal states -- SELF-EVIDENT!

There is no hiding from REALITY; the MORAL MAJORITY of the world are now required to put an end to this slaughter as international and state institutions have clearly proven themselves to be CORRUPT and rotten to the core. The LAW and civilisation DEMAND JUSTICE. Allowing state criminals to flout laws with impunity is intolerable and begs for totalitarian and fascist rule, as is demonstrated by Israel today. The slaughter and OPPRESSION must END if we value our own freedoms, as these occurrences empower criminal elites to apply their criminal practices on ALL -- that means everyone.

Julian Assange is in immense danger. Remarks made this week by Ecuador’s foreign minister suggest that her government may be preparing to renege on the political asylum it granted to the WikiLeaks editor in 2012 and hand him over to British and then American authorities. (story and 1 image)

CO2 Increase Graph image As Trump Kills NASA Carbon Monitoring Program CO2 Levels Soar Past 'Troubling' 410 ppm Threshold Jessica Corbett via shirl, Sunday, May 13 2018, 8:59pm
As the Trump administration charges forward with its war on science by canceling a "crucial" carbon monitoring system at NASA, scientists and climate experts are sounding alarms over atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) that just surpassed a "troubling" threshold for the first time in human history.

depressedsoldier.jpg image Rejecting the Normalization of Perpetual War William Rivers Pitt via jane, Sunday, May 13 2018, 5:01am
My daughter was born in the 22nd year of the Forever War, which stands today upon its 27th year and counting. People who should know better may tell you the war started only 17 years ago, after September 11, but those people are likely trying to sell you something, and it's probably more war.

trumpnetanyahu.jpg image America's War Against Iran Eric S. Margolis via stan, Sunday, May 13 2018, 4:47am
Israel attacked alleged Iranian military positions in Syria on Tuesday, just one hour after Donald Trump pulled the U.S. out of the nuclear deal with Tehran. Are these big steps forward in the plan by Israel’s leader Benjamin Netanyahu and his ally Trump to provoke a major war with Iran? (story and 1 image)

text Iran: the Simple FACTS Are ... justin, Sunday, May 13 2018, 1:03am
Firstly, it is Saudi-supported Sunni extremists which form most of the WORLD’S Islamic terrorist groups NOT Iranian Shias. However, as the US supports Saudi Arabia, which now is allied with US ally Israel -- all three criminal (historically proven) nations have one thing in common, they all detest Iran which is why Iran is painted as the nation that supports terrorism NOT guilty Saudi Arabia, as is easily historically verified and obvious.

text Israel to Provoke Iran After Trump Ditches Nuclear Deal Jake Johnson via shirl, Wednesday, May 9 2018, 2:01am
In the immediate wake of U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement that America is withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal, Israel reportedly carried out airstrikes in Syria and began mobilizing its defense forces over what it claimed were "abnormal movements of Iranian forces."

text The West’s Finance-Capitalist Road Rides on Parasitic DEBT Michael Hudson via burt, Monday, May 7 2018, 1:17am
Volumes II and III of Marx’s Capital describe how debt grows exponentially, burdening the economy with carrying charges. This overhead is subjecting today’s Western finance-capitalist economies to austerity, shrinking living standards and capital investment while increasing their cost of living and doing business. That is the main reason why they are losing their export markets and becoming de-industrialized.

text Peace Dreams shirl, Sunday, May 6 2018, 3:49am
Reality is very sobering, like how does anyone hope to see peace when western leaders talk of nothing but war, division, aggression and conflict? Quite simply, PEACE is something earned by POPULATIONS not war mongering puppet leaders serving elites that profit from war, destruction and theft.

text American Pathocracy lex, Sunday, May 6 2018, 2:52am
The American ‘Pathocracy’ is characterised by extremely flawed and grossly incompetent pathological leadership, which spews and rants all manner of idiocies, lies, delusions that transfix a pathological society which feeds from the sickness which has come to full bloom today. This clearly social disease, which screams loud and clear to other nations not yet infected, manifests and is personified by US president Trump, whose primary function is to create psychological chaos, DISTRACT and confuse, thereby disempowering the masses while the nefarious DEEP STATE continues with its psychopathic agenda of perpetual interventionist wars, resource theft and mass murder, which agenda hasn’t missed a beat since the presidency of Bill Clinton.

text When Orwell’s 1984 Stopped Being Prophetic Fiction Jonathan Cook via reg, Saturday, May 5 2018, 1:17am
This is the moment when a newspaper claiming to uphold that most essential function in a liberal democracy – acting as a watchdog on power – formally abandons the task. This is the moment when it positively embraces the role of serving as a mouthpiece for the government. The tell is in one small word in a headline on today’s Guardian’s front page: “Revealed”.

text Stop the Madness of a War With Iran Medea Benjamin via jane, Saturday, May 5 2018, 12:57am
The Iran nuclear deal is on the verge of sinking on May 12, when Donald Trump will decide whether or not to waive the nuclear-related sanctions, as the deal calls for. While the world is cheering the upcoming meeting between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un (including Trump’s fans calling for a Nobel Peace Prize), Trump is needlessly and recklessly driving our nation down a path toward war with Iran—and neither Congress nor the American people seem to care.
