The Necessity of a Critical Approach posted by nano, 2013-05-12 00:43:36
The lack of critical thinking in the US is producing confusion, inanity, misapprehension and social paralysis. The ensuing lack of effective opposition/dissent is facilitating the criminal status quo. I refer to leading figures Noam Chomsky and Chris Hedges as major subverters of the social forces required to formulate and organise effective social movements for social change, reform and the restoration of justice and democracy in the USA.

A State of War posted by sanchez, 2013-05-10 22:25:35
For those not familiar with overt acts of war allow me to cite a blatant example -- any nation that overtly attacks another sovereign nation declares war in the most basic and brutish manner possible. Israel's recent air attacks on Damascus clearly indicate a State of war exists between Syria and Israel. (full story)

Toy Prince Harry The Bastard Prince pays tribute to allied Dead in Corporate Wars posted by captain, 2013-05-10 10:18:53
The title says it all but it should first be stated that there is no honour, glory or anything else in death. Death is a neutral event, it visits everyone from beggar, bastard prince, duped soldiers that die for Corporate profits and not to be forgotten, the millions of innocent civilians that pay the highest price. But in death all are equal so let's not make a fiction from the stark reality of INJUSTICE. (full story)

Delusionist Journalists: what is the Internet if not the most sophisticated form of mass media? posted by dasha, 2013-05-09 22:51:01
It’s amazing how blind some specialists appear to be. Since the advent of the print media, then film, radio, TV -- and now the slave inducing digital ‘revolution’ -- the mass media has been utilised as a tool by the ruling powers, so why the surprise when ruling elites appropriated and began to manage (censor) and exploit the digital world/Internet? You reading this, Pilger? (full story)

“Asymmetric Cyber Warfare”: Superpowers Accuse Each Other posted by zed, 2013-05-09 13:00:44
"The greatest victory is had by creating the circumstances which induce the opponent to defeat itself" -- Anon hacker.

It should be understood from the outset that the activities of Uber or elite hackers are untraceable -- "Uber," used in a cyber context actually means untraceable or invisible. Furthermore, it is child's play to camouflage an attack by directing its source to another party. (full story)

Kerry (left) has something in common with criminal Bush John Kerry in Moscow posted by nano, 2013-05-09 02:19:02
It’s not so much the Russians are fools or gullible, the political -- not military -- leadership has been bought and is thoroughly corrupt as are Chinese political -- again not military -- leaders. (full story)

Believing Bullshit -- American Propaganda posted by Paul Craig Roberts via sal, 2013-05-08 13:01:16
Obama, who has betrayed democracy in America, unleashing execution on American citizens without due process of law and war without the consent of Congress, has the hide to accuse the new president of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, of a fraudulent election victory. Obviously, Obama is piqued that the millions of dollars his administration spent trying to elect a (US) puppet president in Venezuela failed to achieve the desired result. (full story)

"Obama says U.S. has moral obligation to stop slaughter in Syria but needs evidence" posted by nel, 2013-05-07 23:44:03
The above headline is classic double speak -- consider the world's leading civilian killing nation (FACT) making any claim to morality, then add to that grotesque situation a puppet president that boasts an extra-judicial mafia 'kill list,' who supports Torture, and who expeditiously signed into law indefinite detention without trial or charge -- that is the hard reality, dreamboats.

Syrian Intervention and Media Hawks in the USA -- to be Expected posted by ned, 2013-05-07 22:44:02
Unsurprising is the NYT chief’s recent op-ed urging the US (selling the people) to intervene in a losing civil war in Syria. The ‘thing’ is coming apart since special UN investigator, Carla del Ponte, discovered that US/Israeli backed Rebels had used deadly Sarin nerve gas not government forces -- a botched false flag if ever there was one! It will be a difficult one to hide no doubt, so it’s mass media saturation (fiction) time and do not imagine for a second that this is a new phenomenon; the precedent was set in Nazi Germany. Almost the entire population swallowed the pure fiction of Nazi propaganda, as the moron US masses are doing with US propaganda today -- so ‘go for your life’, Bill. (full story)

UN Investigator: Mossad and CIA backed Rebels Used Sarin Gas in Syria posted by verity, 2013-05-06 21:59:41
Carla Del Ponte, special investigator for the UN into the use of chemical WMD in Syria has discovered that in fact it was the CIA/Mossad backed rebels that deployed that weapon in Syria. All that is required now is to follow the trail to the source of the weapon. I would add that the USA wished to test deadly Sarin and Vx nervous gas on Australian troops (considered expendable by the US) in Queensland during the Vietnam war -- it shouldn't be too difficult to expose the entire dastardly US/Zionist plot to overthrow the Syrian government and gain a strategic foothold from which to attack Iran -- you incompetent Yankee imbeciles; how many times do you think you can 'blow it' so obviously and maintain credibility and support?

There is a tit for tat response to the disproportionate attacks that nuclear Israel inflicts on other States and that is nuke Tel Aviv. It would end the festering, slow-kill, cancerous disease in the Middle East once and for all. (full story)

Juliar 'Carbon Tax' Gillard ‘We can win’ -- says out-of-touch Juliar Gillard to her Party posted by flo, 2013-05-05 08:07:13
A clear indication of the DISSOCIATION that has plagued the Oz Labor Party for some time was evident in a headline today, cop this, “Gillard confident of election win,” what! You’ve got to see it to believe it, not a snow flake's chance. The headline is actually a paraphrased quote from Gillard herself, the only problem is that it’s completely DIVORCED from REALITY.
