Russian Bear Untroubled by Neocon Mosquitos posted by justin, 2015-09-26 09:27:13
By way of introduction to Robert Parry’s sober article on the infantile insults and outright lies levelled at the democratically elected, popular, Russian leader, Vladimir Putin, by Washington schoolyard children masquerading as adults, it should be noted that the US is clearly attempting to provoke Putin with personal insults in order to have an excuse (if Putin reacted) to pursue their insane dream of world domination, hegemony. Well it’s time for Washington’s ‘enfant terrible’ to face hard reality; no one nation today is able to dominate the entire world -- OBVIOUS FACT -- PNAC is arsewipe! The sooner world superpowers enter into constructive dialogue and mutual cooperation the sooner needless, destabilising extremist wars and global economic instability cease. So what are you doing Washington neocons, making total asses of yourselves before the international community? (full story)

America: ‘Entitled’ to Kill posted by via jess, 2015-09-24 23:29:46
After the deaths of mass murdering leaders, Hitler, Mao, Stalin and Pol Pot, the dubious honour of the world’s most murderous nation is awarded to the United States, hang your heads in shame Americans. Over SIX million innocent civilians, including 500,000 children in Iraq, countless Indo-Chinese peasants, North Africans and Arabs have been slaughtered by the USA since the Korean conflict. These needless deaths have been ‘justified’ by various ‘humanitarian’ pretexts and outright illegal ‘regime change’ wars. However, the criminals responsible for these horrendous atrocities have never been held to account and the killing continues unabated. (full story)

Peta Credlin, sick bitch Axing Abbott: Credlin Gripes Costello says, Yay! posted by darcy, 2015-09-23 00:34:24
Former chief of staff to Tony Abbott, Peta 'digital graffiti’ Credlin, recently attempted to paint herself in a positive light by claiming emphatically -- her style -- that she was the principal behind Abbott’s successful opposition campaign against two former Labor leaders. Granted, she is correct in that regard BUT she avoided taking responsibility for his downfall as a leader of government in which she also played the principal role. (full story)

US-China Relations: The Pentagon versus High Tech posted by Prof. James Petras via jess, 2015-09-20 09:08:14
Step by step, Washington is inexorably setting up a major provocation against China. Until now, the Obama regime tightened a military encirclement of China, expanding its armed forces agreements with Japan, the Philippines and Australia. In addition, it has promoted the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP), a regional trade agreement which openly excludes China. (full story)

Malcolm Turnbull Turnbull makes it Plain No Relief for Average Aussies, the Democratic Majority posted by bruce, 2015-09-18 22:55:03
True to form, ‘new’ PM Malcolm Turnbull has stated that he will work hand in glove with the elite big end of town to implement ‘his’ policies, which of course disadvantage the majority and favour the elite minority. By consequence these policies would add increased financial pressure and hardship on abused (by Abbott) average Australians. So there it is, more bull, deception, callous disregard and exploitation of average Australians by Turnbull! (full story)
