Are you hypnotised yet?  LOL! Andrew Bolt: MalcolmTurnbull the “Idiot” posted by james, 2016-03-30 01:50:06
Arch-conservative commentator Andrew Bolt pilloried sitting ‘unexciting narcissist’ PM Malcolm Turnbull for his divisive tax plan, which would allow the States to raise money via their own taxes, notwithstanding that the struggling Australian public would be forced to pay EXTRA taxes shortly after this inane proposal was realised – makes sense if you are a political idiot!

Radovan Karadzic receiving sentence at the ICTY Karadzic Found Guilty of War Crimes posted by justin, 2016-03-29 21:07:41
Former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic has been found guilty of various war crimes by the ICTY and sentenced to 40 years imprisonment – few would denounce the verdict; however, his case was tainted by the partial – to this day – ICC/ICTY, a politicised body that has constantly displayed extreme bias toward Serbs and has treated other major offenders very softly indeed; I refer to Richard Holbrook’s darlings, KLA terrorists, and Germany’s puppets in Croatia, the fascist Ustasha, which role was pivotal in fomenting the Balkan war – major war criminals from both groups have been released after show trials to give the impression to the world of impartiality but never has that sordid leniency ever been extended to the demonised (by the US media) Serbs.

Destabilisation -- a two-edged Sword posted by jack, 2016-03-27 18:42:24
During the cold war the USSR had the upper hand regarding infiltration of other nations and the spreading of socialist ideology. It achieved great effect by targeting labour and unions, race relations and the obvious inequality of capitalist society, which is simply an exploitative ideology favouring an elite. (full story)

Turnbull, full of himself, full of shit! Malcolm Turnbull's Neoliberal Economic Claptrap Disemboweled posted by rex, 2016-03-26 07:47:04
In this interview, Michael Hudson, the world's leading alternative economist completely exposes the ruse of elitist, parasitic economics. Oz PM Malcolm Turnbull, a former Goldman Sachs employee, espouses the parasitic "innovation" economics of neoliberalism, which is destroying the national and the GLOBAL economy as I write. Paper juggling or 'money economics' is NOT production or growth, make no mistake. Do not be daunted readers, an economics degree is not essential in understanding plain, simple, economic facts.

Brussels Bullshit – Most Probably a ‘False Flag’ Attack posted by justin, 2016-03-22 23:24:26
First, let me emphasise what informed analysts and commentators have known from the start – ISIL/ISIS/Da’esh is a CIA creation aided and supported by Saudi Arabia, Israel, Jordan, Turkey and other Gulf States, which (Saudis) have come out and stated they control the ‘terrorists’ (and proxy fighting groups) like turning a switch on and off – re: threat to Putin’s face prior to Olympics.

'Bill Turnbull' It’s Always About Them -- Oz Politicians – NEVER the People posted by cyd, 2016-03-20 21:08:16
Well, surprise, surprise, the conservatives are in a panic over their plummeting polls and the lack of direction/competence/ACTION at the helm and so predictably, ‘unexciting’ PM, ‘paralysed mullet’ Turnbull called a press conference today to announce an early DD based, July 2, federal election, the consultants and marketers can’t be wrong – or could they be? Not even the crocodiles in the Territory are surprised -- you see, it’s always about them and their internal squabbling, consultant-led tactics/timing, and as usual, a hat full of rain for the AUSTRALIAN PEOPLE.

Is There a US-Russia Grand Bargain in Syria? posted by Pepe Escobar via james, 2016-03-20 18:46:53
It's spy thriller stuff; no one is talking. But there are indications Russia would not announce a partial withdrawal from Syria right before the Geneva negotiations ramp up unless a grand bargain with Washington had been struck. Some sort of bargain is in play, of which we still don't know the details; that's what the CIA itself is basically saying through their multiple US Think Tankland mouthpieces. And that's the real meaning hidden under a carefully timed Barack Obama interview that, although inviting suspension of disbelief, reads like a major policy change document. (full story)

Give Me a Break! posted by cyd, 2016-03-19 21:49:40
I mean really, is the Truth so unbearable that the vast majority prefer to ignore it and live in an elite orchestrated delusion? Well, unfortunately the simple answer to that question is YES! However, the informed and thinking minority are not surprised, with a little diligent research the public minority are able to peel through government tissue-thin, facile bullshit and view the unpalatable Truth in all its beauty and ugly wonder.

Tony Windsor -- the Peoples' Representative Consultants Destroy Oz Politics posted by darcy, 2016-03-16 05:44:03
The disillusioned voting public of Australia wonder at times why both major parties do not reflect majority wishes or pursue pre-election promises/policies. Well, our pollies have been harnessed by consultants that view the majority as a mindless herd to be deceived and lied to, a la’ Tony Abbott style, well, he paid the price and so will his party, which have been advised never to reveal policies for fear they will be assessed and shown to be transparently serving elite corporate and banker interests and not the public-- so for God’s sake do not allow the public time to think. Meaningless political babble has become the order of the day for our major parties but particularly the conservatives, which are now becoming a laughing stock due to their consultant-led inability to speak freely to the electorate, the people they falsely hope would vote them back into office!

Donald Trump, rogue element ‘Anonymous’ hackers Declare War on Trump posted by fritz, 2016-03-15 18:54:18
The Independent UK recently ran a story about the Anonymous hacking group targeting election disruptor Donald Trump. Firstly, it should be made very clear that there is nothing anonymous about this FBI and agency hacking group. The elite hacker underground is fully cognisant of the fact that ‘anonymous’ was formed to entrap hackers whose attacks were disrupting elite powers. Indeed, the headlines were full of stories of busts the FBI made as a result of their ruse and entrapment vehicle. Kiddie hackers have also steered clear of this organisation as a result, notwithstanding the elite hacker fraternity made it known from the start. (full story)
