 The Death of Freedom in America posted by Chris Hedges via shirl, 2017-05-23 07:48:28
The deep state’s decision in ancient Rome—dominated by a bloated military and a corrupt oligarchy, much like the United States of 2017—to strangle the vain and idiotic Emperor Commodus in his bath in the year 192 did not halt the growing chaos and precipitous decline of the Roman Empire.

‘Suspected’ Terrorist Attack in UK posted by justin, 2017-05-22 23:51:45
Terrorism is primarily defined by killing innocent civilians, whether perpetrated by the American state that killed 500,000 CHILDREN in pre-invasion Iraq and considered it "worth it", English hooligans, Croatian or Ukraine fascists or whoever, it’s the ACT that defines itself. YET UK authorities are not 100% sure whether the recent attack at a pop concert was indeed a terrorist attack: now note how the mass media describes it: (full story)

The American Deep State Views its Military Personnel as Expendable Sheep posted by jason, 2017-05-22 01:45:05
Perhaps more than any other incident the USS Liberty treachery defines America’s deep state as the psychopathic homicidal maniacs they are. Not long after the deep state’s murder of JFK, they, mostly Zionists and ultra-right wing gentiles, were involved in a botched ‘false flag’ incident more obvious than the rising dawn sun. Zionist deep state players and the Israeli Mossad planned a false flag attack on the USS Liberty, a naval surveillance vessel, in 1967 in order to justify America’s involvement in the Arab-Israeli war at the time, though involvement became unnecessary, notwithstanding that American military personnel had been needlessly SLAUGHTERED.

This one takes the cake; Trump recently approved a Pentagon plan to eradicate the Islamic State WHILE (almost) simultaneously supplying the Saudi’s with $150b in military weaponry. (full story)

 Julian Assange -- no Victory and no Integrity posted by jane, 2017-05-20 00:03:06
Headlines have announced that Swedish authorities have 'withdrawn' their case for rape charges against Assange -- now note, the case could be re-opened at will as Sweden has NOT dropped charges, furthermore the UK maintains that Assange would be arrested for minor local crimes, that is failure to appear when legally required in court. Interesting but meaningless news no doubt, though Assange himself is well aware that Sweden's latest decision is only token. (full story)

 Putin’s Syria Defences FAIL Yet Again posted by drew, 2017-05-19 23:09:03
Russian ‘news’ agencies -- obviously no better than American -- along with western duped supporters, have touted the superiority of Russian defensive weaponry from air/sea to pin-point accuracy missile systems, YET Syrian government forces have been deliberately and ILLEGALLY attacked AGAIN by US fighter jets originating from Jordan. Russian targeting and missile systems seem not to function period, as enemy jet fighters and Tomahawk missiles face absolutely no operational challenges whatsoever -- rather odd don’t you THINK?

Digital Technologies: Millennials and other generations are BORN into SLAVERY posted by jess, 2017-05-19 03:07:01
Indeed, though the title should read DIGITAL slavery.
The title raises numerous questions, not least, why do the young fail to oppose draconian, criminal, elite rule, which is grotesquely evident to everyone. The answer is as the title suggests, they are born into slavery and have no notion of REAL freedom, they can only imagine or fantasize about the real freedoms enjoyed by previous generations which are acutely aware of what they have lost, most crucially PRIVACY, which is the foundation of security, not the State, which pretends to ‘keep us safe’, which is the very reason we have lost our real freedoms, only privacy ensures freedom to think and act.

 Impeachment: Trump is up Against it no doubt but rather than fight he SULKS posted by jaxie, 2017-05-18 01:55:54
Like the naive political infant that Trump is, he faces the deep state agenda to impeach him by sulking like a child, poo poo, ka ka; “no politician has been treated worse,” WHAT! (full story)

Assessment of Two Competing Nations -- China vs USA posted by jake, 2017-05-16 10:49:22
You do not cure a disease by treating the symptoms, you must treat the disease itself.
Today, we see two nations at war, and understand that this war involves a lot more than potential bomb throwing. China and America are engaged in a huge economic battle that would see economic dominance shift for the first time since WWII. (full story)

 Oz’s Big Four Banks Squeal like Stuck Pigs over Levy posted by darcy, 2017-05-15 08:50:20
There is a very simple solution to Australia’s taxation system and it’s quintessentially Australian: ‘those that benefit most from the nation should return most to the nation.’ It couldn’t be fairer. (full story)

North Korean missiles can’t hit Australia ‘yet’ [BUT CHINESE ICBMs CAN!] posted by james, 2017-05-14 00:38:13
The above headline (outside brackets) in Murdoch rag, The Weekend Australian, is a lesson in mass media distraction, ‘perception management’ and crowd control. It is no secret that North Korea’s effective missiles are incapable of striking Australia, however, what is missing (by intentional omission) is that China’s ICBMs with up to 14 warheads EACH, are EASILY capable of not only striking Australia but of wiping out every major city leaving our precious resources clean of radiation.

The First Strike Third World War posted by jess, 2017-05-13 22:39:30
Any major war today between superpowers would be pre-emptive, as a first strike would be critical to ‘success;’ no warning, no false flag and no news, just a secretly planned first strike -- analysts are acutely aware of the fact while the masses remain in a media induced fantasy that no-one would be insane enough to launch a nuclear strike. Indeed, that aspect serves to maintain a passive crowd, which ‘crowd,’ if aware of reality would revolt or at the very least hit the streets en masse to prevent such a reckless UNNECESSARY occurrence.

The Redundancy of Minority Political Leadership posted by claire, 2017-05-13 00:52:25
It is now beyond any doubt that leaders are self-interested and non-representative, this sad fact applies world-wide. Now note that the majority in all nations have the same aspirations, to live in peace and enjoy a productive, fulfilling life. However, intentionally created circumstances rob humanity of its rights, joys and peace, for what? The intoxications of power and wealth, which a non-representative minority refuse to share fairly and equitably; they pursue their addictions and sickness regardless of the horrid costs to the majority.
