text Europe in Free Fall The Saker via shaz, Sunday, Aug 30 2015, 9:17am
Europe is in free fall. Nobody can doubt that any more. In fact, the EU is simultaneously suffering from several severe problems and any one of these could potentially become catastrophic. Let’s look at them one by one.

And it’s devastating. What other era in modern history has seen such apathetic compliance to the most draconian intrusions on privacy, the erosion of liberties and rights which our forefathers fought and died to attain and preserve, all forfeited with cowardly, reckless abandon by modern generations – what the fuck in wrong with you people?

Tony Abbott, corporate lackey, traitor and dunce image Abbott criticises protest of police state Border 'Force' tactics jake, Friday, Aug 28 2015, 10:48pm
In possibly the most disconnected of Abbott's statements he took aim at true blue Australians that are fully justified in demonstrating against police state tactics. Disconnected dunce Abbott actually said people should be "ashamed" of protecting Australia's freedoms and unique culture. Well, you've heard it from the horse's mouth and it becomes obvious where Abbott stands, clearly against Australian culture. (story and 1 image)

text "Jesus Was Black" Reveals Newly Found Manuscript Bob Flanagan via jude, Friday, Aug 28 2015, 11:49am
A team of archeologists from the University of Tel Aviv have uncovered a collection of ancient scrolls in the West Bank region, near the Qumran Caves, where the Dead Sea Scrolls were originally uncovered in 1947, and which promise to shed a new light on the life and physical appearance of Jesus Christ.

Dunce Abbott flanked by Minister Peter Dutton and uniformed ABF spokesperson image Abbott’s Australian Border Force Fiasco dan, Friday, Aug 28 2015, 10:35am
One hardly knows where to begin with the outrage that was to be perpetrated against the Australian public. It begins with the re-branding (a meaningless corporate trick) of the customs and immigration services to the “Australian Border Force,” note the last word of this re-branding. The new ‘force’ has been invested with new powers of course, carrying guns for instance, and new dark uniforms reminiscent of Nazi Germany’s SS – what’s a few wasted millions of taxpayer funds when political tricks and gimmicks may help Abbott gain some popularity and support? But it couldn’t have been more disastrous for DISCONNECTED, DISHONEST, incompetent imbecile, Abbott. (story and 2 images)

The is no question that NATO created the current debacle in Libya. So now destructive western forces are looking for an excuse to intervene again -- of course with the same horrific outcomes to be sure.

It doesn’t take a genius to determine that North Africa and the Middle East since American and NATO military interventions are theatres of immeasurable human tragedy today. Prior to the illegal interventions based on lies and various other transparent pretexts, those regions were relatively stable. Today, however, chaos and horror reigns with millions dead and millions more displaced by the destabilising influence of American military interventionism, which amounts to mass murder and the assassination of leaders that refuse to comply with its wishes.

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.
