  NATO's BLOOD FEST posted by Cynthia McKinney via stele, 2011-05-24 22:59:05
NATO is now engaged in a bombing FRENZY of a civilian target, the City of Tripoli -- but do we hear the 'humanitarian intervention' UN, ICC and other international legal authorities or spineless 'superpowers' Russia and China, crying FOUL? NO! It should now be CLEAR to even the dimmest, uninformed American that conducting open warfare on a civilian city is far from a 'humanitarian' action! The WORLD is witnessing the OVERT criminal actions of the most criminally corrupt States and corrupt International ('humanitarian') Organisations (the UN and ICC included) on the planet! That's right morons, it's now undeniable and it's served up in the media on a daily basis.
The next time ANYONE/body or org cries "humanitarian intervention," YOU KNOW it's a veil for criminal enterprise -- conducted primarily by the criminal US/NATO and puppet allies -- the PROOF and TRUTH is in YOUR FACE! (full story)

 Oz Carbon Tax in a Nutshell posted by baz, 2011-05-22 20:55:25
First let me say that climate change is REAL and constant, as the geological and meteorological record clearly indicates; BUT that has no bearing whatsoever on the Goldman Sachs designed PENALTY TAX SYSTEM Julia Gillard wishes to IMPOSE on the good citizens of Australia. (full story and 1 comments)

Another America moron Christian fails to predict the end of the world, which was supposed to occur yesterday; there is no point in naming a single American Bible Bashing idiot -- the nation is full of them and even more BLIND believers who made thorough mindless moronic asses of themselves yesterday.

 Matt Taibbi, 'got to!' posted by quill, 2011-05-21 11:33:29
Alternative, 'independent' journalist Matt Taibbi of Rolling Stone Magazine, seems to have become an apologist for the 'man.' I could scarcely believe my ears (see video) when out of Taibbi's own mouth he stated that mostly 'good people' are in the government -- knowing full well that almost all of Congress has been bought by Wall St. He also stated that the US Corporate media is NOT a 'top down' propaganda apparatus but is captive to profit seeking -- he seems to have forgotten the outrageous, concerted, brazen propaganda sell of the Iraq invasion complete with WMD LIES and babypowder anthrax.

 Bradley Manning HERO, Incarcerated and Tortured by US Criminal Powers posted by Peter Tatchell via gan, 2011-05-21 00:08:36
Bradley Manning has not 'broken' after 9 months of acute and sustained psychological TORTURE! He exhibits exceptionally strong moral convictions and strong MORAL character, which no doubt have enabled him to maintain his personal integrity under the most horrific and sadistic conditions and torture. Anyone who has been subjected to prolonged psychological torture would inform you immediately that this man is exceptional and indeed a HERO. His exceptional strength and courage and the criminal torture he has suffered continue to COMPROMISE criminal forces in Washington and the Pentagon. (full story and 1 comments)

‘Humanitarian intervention’ becomes full-scale illegal war in Libya posted by stan, 2011-05-20 09:33:55
Seemingly frustrated by Col. Gaddafi’s tenacity, and its INABILITY to end the Libyan invasion quickly and install compliant puppet leaders, NATO has begun a full scale war targeting and sinking eight Libyan war ships moored in harbour. Add to that attack the thousands of NATO air sorties already conducted and we have an unmandated WAR in progress. Remember that the feeble excuse for ‘intervention’ originally was to protect civilians; I would wager at this stage that NATO and CIA backed rebels are responsible for more civilian deaths than any other force in Libya. Iraq is a very good example/model of an US/NATO conducted oil war which resulted in over ONE MILLION CIVILIAN DEATHS, all directly and indirectly caused by invading forces. Here we go again!

China’s recent Bravado, Hot ‘Yellow’ Air posted by stan, 2011-05-19 20:42:55
China is attempting to assert itself on the world stage by warning “in unequivocal terms that any attack on Pakistan would be construed as an attack on China!” Cop that world, we are pretending we have balls! However, after China’s COWARDLY display with traditional ally Yugoslavia and witnessing Bill Clinton laugh openly after intentionally targeting the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade and killing a number of Chinese officials, please accept our incredulity as a response to your feeble mouse squeaks and that notwithstanding China’s paralysis in direct view of America's latest imperial war in North Africa. We can see them all shaking in their shoes in Washington, as they roll on the floor laughing at the giant yellow mouse that aspires to superpower status – what a pathetic joke! It’s ACTIONS, NOT WORDS that convince and demand respect. (full story and 1 comments)

Practical Lessons from the Strauss-Kahn ‘Assassination’ posted by quill, 2011-05-17 23:02:56
This analysis will concern itself less with the popular ‘guilt or innocence debate’ than it will with practical lessons to be learnt by various States, groups, bodies, institutions and capable individuals around the globe, but particularly in Europe. (full story and 2 comments)

US Supreme Court Approves Warrantless Police Searches on ‘Suspicion’ posted by gan, 2011-05-16 21:47:42
The torch-bearer of ‘Liberty and Democracy’ in the world -- or so we are led to believe -- has yesterday legally incinerated more civil liberties, freedoms and public safeguards by allowing police to breakdown your door and conduct a warrantless search based on the “suspicion” that (imaginary) evidence is being destroyed – welcome to America, Police State!

 Doing an 'Assange' on IMF chief, Strauss-Kahn posted by dasha, 2011-05-15 22:30:26
Consider all aspects of the following political story and its credulity begins to evaporate under the light of reason. The attempted 'rape' story of a 'hotel chamber maid' by the IMF chief, is as absurd as it is extraordinarily stupid.
Strauss-Kahn was about to challenge US asset, Nicolas Sarkozy, for the French presidency and as we all know the overtly criminal US stops at nothing to protect its Imperial interests. The tragedy is the people will fall for this puerile 'fit.' It's all but over for Dominique who obviously wasn't fully complying with the gang's plans. Our suggestion is spill it all, Dominique, the TRUTH of the IMF and international debt SLAVERY. If you must go down in a classic mafia power play, then go down fighting, take the entire corrupt 'house' down with you. (full story and 1 comments)
