 Symptoms of Demise posted by gan, 2008-06-10 23:54:14
No sooner had the Bilderberg group completed its latest ‘social gathering’ than their mass media informs us that ‘donors’ will pledge $15 billion to ‘rebuild’ Afghanistan – morons, you really have missed the point! Afghanis are not so stupid; they are acutely aware of the forces that destroyed their nation and continue to kill their children! Are U.S. and NATO idiots finally learning what Alexander, British Imperialists and Russia all learnt the hard way – nobody takes Afghanistan on the ground! (full story and 1 comments)

  Dalai Fraud lands in Oz posted by fish, 2008-06-10 21:21:59
The meat-eating Dalai fraud has landed in Sydney and is no doubt tucking into an Aussie steak sandwich or perhaps local hosts have introduced this brazen religious hypocrite to the famous Oz mixed (meat) grill -- political pursuits require meat as fuel! However, anyone familiar with Buddhist philosophy would tell you – ‘you can’t have your Buddhist void and play politics too.’ The two incompatible pursuits are mutually exclusive but that ‘small’ matter hasn’t deterred our meat-eating Tibetan visitor – what a laugh, my dog’s hind leg is straighter than this man’s character!

Former Oil Minister blows lid of orgy of profiteering posted by finch, 2008-06-10 11:11:16
Isam Chalabi, former Iraqi oil minister, cites speculation and banking interests as the principal causes of today’s inflated oil prices. He dismissed the notion that current inflated prices are the result of supply shortages. “The question of prices today is not related to supply and demand fundamentals; everybody knows that,” he said in a recent interview on the ABC’s AM program.

Sunday, June 8, 2008, marked the last day of this year’s annual Bilderberg meeting, which took place in Chantilly, Virginia.

It stated that, "The Conference will deal mainly with a nuclear free world, cyber terrorism, Africa, Russia, finance, protectionism, US-EU relations, Afghanistan and Pakistan, Islam and Iran. Approximately 140 participants will attend."1 (full story)

 Prime Minister Rudd shames the nation posted by budgie, 2008-06-09 10:18:51
There is only one Australian politician that presents a more pathetic figure on the international stage than Foreign Minister Stephen ‘kneepads’ Smith, and that is our new pipsqueak PM, Kevin ‘bereft’ Rudd! (full story and 3 comments)

 War criminal on honours list! posted by dingo, 2008-06-09 03:18:43
Former Prime Minister and war criminal at large, John ‘aluminium tubing’ Howard is to receive Australia’s highest civic honour, the Companion of the Order of Australia! Well, that about ‘tears it’ for this dingo. Think for one moment and ask yourself why and who would honour a man who attempted to destroy the Australian ‘fair go’ and traditional worker’s rights. Howard implemented policies that have created the widest disparities in wealth distribution in the nation’s history. Some banking executives enjoy salaries in the tens of millions ($35m) while average Aussies receive $45K for their efforts – hooray for Johnny, give him a medal, you mindless, moronic sheep! It’s all any red-blooded Aussie can do to stop themselves strangling the little rodent on sight! (full story)

The [American] Empire -- A Status Report posted by William Blum via fleet, 2008-06-07 22:18:34
The events of recent years indicate that the world is wising up to and becoming less intimidated by Washington's overarching ambition for world dominance. Latin America is increasingly attempting to escape the empire's clutches. Leaders keenly aware of how US imperialism works and determined to keep it out of their own country are in power in Venezuela, Uruguay, Ecuador, Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Panama, and perhaps the latest addition, Paraguay.

 Arab Islamists winning propaganda war posted by gan, 2008-06-07 20:01:17
The thoroughly illegal trial of fanatic Islamists at Torture Bay this week will serve only to strengthen the cause of ultra-conservative religionists.
The illegal detention centre, Guantanamo ‘torture’ Bay, hosts the illegal trials and will no doubt arrive at an illegal (guilty) verdict for those accused, illegally held, tortured and denied their rights! (full story)

What is NATO Doing in Afghanistan? posted by Faheem Hussain via rialator, 2008-06-07 09:26:31
What is NATO doing in Afghanistan? What are the true aims of NATO intervention in the region? These are the questions that I mean to address in this article. To understand what is happening in Afghanistan one has to go back to the attack on Yugoslavia by NATO forces in February 1999. (full story)

  Demystifying Yoga posted by cleaves, 2008-06-07 02:27:47
After forty years study and practise of Yoga and other related disciplines I can confidently say I know less today than I did when I ‘started,’ which, nevertheless, is considerably more than most ochre-robed yoga ‘experts’ who advertise in various new-age publications. (full story)

JERUSALEM, June 6 (Reuters) - An Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear sites looks "unavoidable" given the apparent failure of sanctions to deny Tehran technology with bomb-making potential, one of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's deputies said on Friday. (full story)

 Goodbye Presidency: Obama caves-in to Jewish lobby posted by barra, 2008-06-05 21:26:16
Barack Obama just lost the race for the Presidency. At an address to AIPAC, probably the most powerful UNREPRESENTATIVE lobby in the USA, Obama caved to the wishes of the Zionists by pledging almost unconditional support for Israel and going so far as to state publicly that Jerusalem, claimed by two peoples, would remain the undivided capital of Zionist Israel.

Bernanke's Speech: "It's all China's fault!" posted by Mike Whitney via rialator, 2008-06-04 22:58:45
He's at it again. Bernanke, that is. Yesterday the Fed chief delivered a rambling 45 minute speech at the International Monetary Conference in Barcelona, laying out all the reasons why the Federal Reserve is NOT responsible for the present crisis in the financial markets. Here's what he said: (full story)
