Superior design and combat ability, Sukhoi jet fighter at a fraction of F-35 costs Oz Abbott Gov Compliantly Confirms ‘Increased’ Order of ‘72' F-35 Flying Lemons posted by mitch, 2014-04-23 00:28:53
As the rest of the intelligent, independent world withdraws support from America’s latest jet fighter flying lemons, the custard-faced, Washington compliant, knee-walking, Oz lackey government increases orders of this fault-ridden, under-performing, over-priced, flying disaster. Need we mention the recent telephone exchanges between Lockheed Martin, Washington and the Abbott ‘yes boss’ government? However, PM Abbott’s undisguised servility to a foreign power (treason) is not the issue today. (full story)

Things as they Are posted by stefan, 2014-04-17 13:38:13
I find it extraordinary that almost the entire world has overlooked the fact that since the orchestrated, illegal, Balkan intervention -- which continues today in the Ukraine -- the USA has continually aligned/allied itself with extremists and former fascist Nazi groups. For example, the US has consciously, intentionally allied itself to former Axis powers and nations/groups that fought with Hitler’s Nazis during WWII. Muslim Albanians (modern Kosovars) fought with Hitler against Yugoslavia and allied powers during the second world war; the US has also allied itself to one of the most brutal Nazi groups of WWII, the Croatian Ustashe, indeed Croatia fought against the allies and Yugoslav partisans in WWII, add to that another inglorious Balkan group of friends, Bosnian Muslims, which of course fought with Hitler against the allies and Yugoslavia!

Bush, total fear - first shoe-throw A Few Home Truths posted by jed, 2014-04-13 00:45:36
Consider the US backed Syrian intervention and the fact that US paid Muslims are fighting and killing sovereign Muslim nationals -- Islamic “brotherhood” is a MYTH, Muslims have been killing each other since that paedophile Mohammed made his heavily plagiarised initial religious mutterings and drew his sword against his own kind. Man has created every known (convenient) ‘God’ since recorded history began, FACT! (full story)

'Sam' of the Dead -- Zombie Democracy in the U.S. posted by Ajamu Baraka via lyle, 2014-04-12 00:36:11
I have always found discussions on democracy in the U.S. curious and at times hilarious. While I have always been impressed by the skillful way elites construct a narrative of democratic values and practice in a country that is, in reality, the antithesis of a democracy, the fervor with which that fairytale is embraced, even by intellectuals, has always been a source of curiosity for me. But at other moments, like the one we are in now, I can’t help but find some of the arguments used to support the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent McCutcheon decision—and even some of the comments lamenting how the decision will destroy democracy in the U.S.—somewhat funny.

Paedophile/Poofter Christian Churches in Dismay -- Jesus had a wife! posted by Scott Kaufman via jude, 2014-04-11 01:50:49
Ancient Coptic text dated to 700 CE disproves Vatican forgery theory. Furthermore, of course Jesus may have had a wife, he was a Jewish man and social reformer born of a woman. It may also disappoint the Churches to learn that soon the truth of Jesus will become plain. He couldn't fly or raise the rotting dead -- the blind he cured and the dead he raised were socially blind and dead to the truth his message delivers -- there was absolutely NOTHING supernatural about Jesus, Buddha or any other religious leader, but of course that didn't suit the powers of the time that decided to make Jesus something other than human for enslaving purposes. I can hardly wait to hear the hysterical homosexual screams of clerics, religious poofters and Church paedophiles denouncing the text. (full story)

'Dishonest' CEO, Ian McLeod Coles Forced to Retract “False and Misleading” Claims posted by shopper via sam, 2014-04-07 08:55:37
But where is perpetrator CEO Ian McLeod, to comment on the court decision? McLeod was/is DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR LANDING COLES IN THE FEDERAL COURT over a number of dubious, if not flagrantly dishonest, retail practices -- but he got his bonuses, so who gives a shit? McLeod stepped down from his position as CEO a few days before Federal Court proceedings and by so doing advertised to the world his lack of character and profound COWARDICE; we are certainly not surprised that this bonus-chasing, hit run, cowboy CEO is hiding behind his inept lower management team; he is tipped to take his money and run to the Middle East later this year, he certainly is a known sordid quantity in Oz and his position is becoming less viable by the day.

IMF Austerity for Western Ukraine Defended as 'Price of Independence' posted by Jon Queally via jake, 2014-04-06 10:00:05
Now that resource scarce western Ukraine has become an American vassal and slave to Western Banking interests, it can look forward to a taste of American democracy characterised by corrupt politicians, yawning inequality, double (legal) standards, police oppression, genital groping at airports, indefinite detention without charge or trial on suspicion and extra-judicial assassinations all in order to keep Ukrainian 'democracy' safe -- Stalin is laughing in his grave!

Russia Recommends Yoga to ease US Tension over Crimea posted by Maria Tadeo via serge, 2014-04-06 02:46:21
The unstated aspect of this story is that 'Regime Change' -- a US interventionist obsession -- is illegal according to all known international laws. But that hasn't deterred the rogue US fomenting violence and numerous revolts in other nations and installing unrepresentative criminal extremists into office to serve Washington, Western Banks and other Corporate interests. Unlike the vote held in the Crimea, the so-called Ukrainian government has no legitimacy whatsoever, until such time as the People vote a legitimate government into office that represents them NOT Western Banks and Corporations. Notice how the IMF and western banks were falling over themselves to throw large enslaving loans at the Ukraine, which was accepted by the corrupt puppet 'government'. (full story)
