Manchester and London Attackers ALL KNOWN to Police posted by jess, 2017-06-06 05:52:05
Which fact highlights an obvious reality, the surveillance/police State is clearly unable to prevent terrorist attacks! So, does this proven reality, now substantiated in the UK, USA, France, Australia, etc, justify the excuse agencies and governments universally use -- “keeping us safe?” Clearly not, western societies world-wide are now able to offer incontrovertible proof that pan-surveillance and socially oppressive government policies, i.e., the removal of traditional freedoms and liberties, do NOT keep us safe. In other words governments, police and agencies should keep their INCOMPETENT noses out of our personal business. (full story)

NSA Chief to Testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee posted by suzie, 2017-06-06 00:19:40
Well, FINALLY! The only feasible organisation in the USA able to offer credible intelligence into all the rumours, allegations and accusations plaguing the nation is of course the NSA. Former FBI director Comey is a small player compared to the NSA, which agency's function is to vacuum ALL digital data locally and world-wide, so if evidence exists, they would have it. (full story)

Elite lackey, Theresa May London: Too Many Coincidences and Consistencies posted by james, 2017-06-05 01:22:20
The concentration of ‘terror’ attacks immediately prior to a general election is in itself suspect, combine that with the politically opportunistic media speech candidate Theresa May gave after the latest London attack and we all have good cause to be extremely suspicious and keenly aware.

Australian Sovereignty and the DEFLECTION of a China ‘Threat’ posted by darcy, 2017-06-04 02:00:27
I could scarcely believe I was reading an overt, disgracefully unbalanced propaganda piece from Australia’s ABC, which ‘tragic,’ for the reporters, story more typically issues from the Murdoch press. (full story)

US Foreign Policy Removes its Mask posted by MOA via jill, 2017-06-03 00:04:22
After the recent brutal announcement of raw American supremacy by high US officials, it would seem that the mask routinely placed over the real face of criminal US foreign policy -- self-interest utilising military force -- has finally been removed. As far as America is concerned it's now OPENLY about me, me, me -- self-interest only. Notwithstanding that fact -- imperialism -- other nations have known the truth since WWII. It seems that the tattered mask of 'R2P,' 'humanitarian or democratic interventions' or whatever pretext you choose, may finally be replaced with NAKED, criminal aggression, as is current American foreign policy behind the mask/pretexts. If this is the case, removing all pretense, the world could look 'forward' to a far more aggressive USA. Now, try and imagine the consequences of that prospect for a moment! (full story)

'Buffoon with Psychopath' US Secretary of Defense -- ‘it’s fun to shoot people!’ posted by sal, 2017-06-02 06:54:22
James ‘Mad Dog’ Mattis deserves his moniker, he very recently stated on the mass media that ‘civilian casualties are a fact of life in the current [perpetual war] situation’ -- well of course they are you moron, civilians ALWAYS pay the highest price in UNNECESSARY wars. America has killed directly and indirectly over six million civilians since, not including, the Vietnam war, which itself was a 'carpet bombing' -- four million innocents murdered -- slaughter-ground, which any primary school kid could tell you totals ten (10) fuckin’ million innocent, men, women and CHILDREN needlessly slaughtered in order for corporate interests to turn evermore profits for THEMSELVES, as clearly the American people NEVER benefit from perpetual corporate wars -- in FACT they die in retaliatory reprisals!

Wage Democracy Against the Evil Mass Murdering Oligarchs and Plutocrats posted by justin, 2017-06-01 01:21:43
Let’s take a good look shall we, at the state of unrepresentative western, elite rule. Clearly DEMOCRACY, defined as majority rule, has been dead for decades. The people have been reduced to voting for the ‘lesser evil,’ which is clearly not democracy, as the two major party system is owned and controlled by the same interests, the oligarchs and plutocrats, those mega-wealthy powerful minority groups that own all the major world banks and the mega-corporations. Do they represent the majority? Not a chance, yet they remain in control of western governments world-wide, which governments pledge privately before elections how much they would serve the interests of that minority while they LIE through their teeth to the disgruntled masses -- for instance, “I’ll drain the Washington swamp” -- by serving it -- LOL. Give the masses a break! (full story)

The world leader in self-ishness and individualism, which of course is counter to the survival of humanity as a group, which species cooperated for the mutual good of all since humanity emerged from the caves, has now breached tipping point as a cohesive society. (full story)

USS Titanic About to Collide with REALITY Iceberg posted by The Saker via jill, 2017-05-29 23:38:43
Robert Fisk put it best: “Trump Is About To Really Mess Up In The Middle East”. Following his fantastically stupid decision to attack the Syrian military with cruise missiles, Trump or, should I say, the people who make decisions for him, probably realized that it was “game over” for any US policy in the Middle-East so they did the only thing that they could do: they ran towards those few who were actually happy with this aggression against Syria: the Saudis and the Israelis. Needless to say, with these two “allies,” what currently passes for some type of “US foreign policy” in the Middle-East will only go from bad to worse. (full story)

J.K. Rowling J.K. Rowling Fries Trump in Six Words posted by suzie, 2017-05-27 07:20:34
Published in women's magazine ELLE, JK Rowling of Harry Potter fame, let go her latest brief fusillade on Trump while he goes from one fiasco to another in each country he visits on his first tour. "You tiny, tiny, tiny little man!" Coming from a woman that hurts, however, Melania, who sold her soul for money, is now forced to bear the pressure of her choice in a "tiny, little man" in WORLD view, how does it feel, Melania? Perhaps a call to 'dubya' Bush's wife may assist in trying to cope. (full story)

Confronting REALITY posted by jude, 2017-05-26 23:42:41
The world today is ‘smaller’ than it has ever been in recorded history. As a result, the human species has been forced to confront itself and deal with its innate negative tendencies/behaviours, which of course are unmistakably evident today. Conflict, violence, wars, greed, all of which behaviours/tendencies arise from self-ishness and the ensuing lack of cooperation; people will either be forced to realise that humanity is indeed one or destroy itself. This is the basic and inescapable reality confronting the world today. (full story)

Identifying Terrorist attackers Almost at light Speed posted by judy, 2017-05-25 22:55:43
We would note from the 9/11 false flag -- now established -- that identifying hireling ‘terrorist' perpetrators was almost instant, somehow a perfectly preserved passport of one of the ‘hijackers’ was magically ‘discovered’ in the massive rubble of the destroyed WTC, good luck and chance had nothing to do with it. It was just too neat, quick and absurd. (full story)
