What ‘NEWS’? posted by sal, 2017-07-14 23:30:25
Society is meant to be informed of critical issues affecting our survival by the media, however, what we see is ALL media, mainstream and ‘alternative,’ wallowing in conflict ‘news’ -- well, after centuries of the same shit, let’s take media crap as a given. Pursuing conflict creates conflict as it saturates the minds of receivers/passive consumers, with war and other mental and social pollution, which becomes naturalised BUT it’s NOT natural it’s created by those that wish to exploit and the ignorant journos that follow. So what is the REAL news? (full story)

Putin, obvious coward and self-serving corrupt criminal Which Nations are Enforcing International LAW? posted by james, 2017-07-14 00:38:45
The short accurate answer is NONE. How so? Russia/Putin abandoned both Yugoslavia and Libya, feeding both allied nations to NATO/US criminal dogs. China lost over $30 billion in Libya when it retreated, with ‘yellow’ tail between legs, from NATO’s illegal bombing. Indeed, international law is only written on paper, to be realised it must be supported by strong nations; however, as is clear so-called strong nations, China and Russia, always balk when confronted with western criminal aggression even though the LAW is on their side. This can only be explained by corruption and/or weakness though it is obvious that the Sino-Russian alliance is easily able to deal with US/NATO criminal enterprises, if they were indeed a balancing opposition force, which clearly they are not!

Immediate Action is Required posted by justin, 2017-07-13 00:52:45
I marvel at times when reading alternative news sites which are devoid of a concerted direction, as they follow mainstream news/events passively. None attempt to mobilise the masses and free them from planned and orchestrated debt slavery -- and as we should be aware slaves clearly have no rights. Slaves are kept on a basic survival level via depressed wages and conditions only in order to effectively serve their elite masters, even the ancient Egyptians and Romans ensured their slaves were fed enough to work, slaves were only allowed to die when they were in over-supply, as is the case today. Think about YOUR personal reality/circumstances. (full story)

White House Under Siege posted by shirl, 2017-07-11 20:36:57
The recent revelations about Trump Jr and his relationship with a Russian lawyer are threatening the Trump presidency, though most of it is hype. Nevertheless, it’s do or die time for Trump senior -- after all, idiot Trump is the (thoroughly incompetent) elected president.

Whatever one takes away from all this the one undeniable factor is imperialist America is following EXACTLY the same pattern/course (internal division) which destroyed all previous empires before it. So there you have the gist of it behind all the crapulous propaganda and subversive tactics. (full story)
