 The High Cost of Political Subservience posted by digby, 2011-04-04 11:30:33
The Oz PM, Julia Gillard, is about as popular as a fart in a lift at the moment. Her blind obedience to Wall Street and Washington's wishes to implement a back-breaking Carbon Tax is the primary reason the Australian public have rejected her. But as stated previously, she is NOT representative of the people, in fact, she regards locals with such contempt that she imagined she could REVERSE a previous promise never to introduce a Carbon Tax and maintain her viability.

 Corporatists Guilty of Criminal Negligence Avoid Prosecution posted by judd, 2011-04-03 23:10:03
A host of Oil and associated Corporations were exposed as criminally negligent after the catastrophic Oil spill and loss of life in the Gulf of Mexico.

It's not news to hackers who, according to an unsubstantiated report, recently hacked into the systems of a military satellite -- an aircraft would be a simple matter by comparison. (full story)

Our True Nature is Bliss posted by stylus, 2011-04-02 10:33:40
Bold, succinct, transformative and evolutionary claims, as expressed by the title, are difficult to ignore.
The ancient Indian Vedas do not mince words or engage in florid metaphor, they emphatically state that man’s true nature is Bliss; the Vedas also challenge us to verify that enduring Truth for ourselves. (full story and 4 comments)

 Obama Libya Speech noted for Open Fascist Declaration posted by judd, 2011-03-31 09:37:17
Obama’s speech on Monday was a shocker! Not for its failure to convince anyone that Oil, gas and eliminating Gaddafi are not the primary objectives of the Libyan intervention, but for the fact that ruling Corporatist and Banker elites in the US no longer find it necessary to hide their true character or intentions.

 Obama’s [Wall Street's] Unconvincing Case on Libya posted by Matthew Rothschild via stan, 2011-03-29 22:39:16
Wall Street fails to make case via puppet President Obama for the Libyan intervention. Performer/Liar Obama did not address the issue of his war making powers during his belated speech to the nation on the Libyan military intervention [because he does what he's told]. He also failed to distinguish between Libya and other cases of urgent humanitarian need, such as Syria, Yemen and Bahrain. And he didn’t adequately address the question of 'overextending' the military, or face the crying social needs on the home front. (full story and 1 comments)

Flagrant US RACIST Propaganda posted by van, 2011-03-28 21:30:20
With God on their side regardless of how many innocent civilians they murder or 'legally' torture, every American knows they are justified in doing anything they choose -- criminal or otherwise. When reason and LIES fail to sustain the argument/myth 'they' resort to the most outrageous racist propaganda seen since the anti-semitic attacks on the Jews by the Nazis. The video below has gone viral for a number of reasons but its overtly racist message is without doubt a calculated inclusion -- there were many ways of delivering this message without the need for OVERT RACISM so we must ask the question, WHY?

Gillard and Abbott: Passive and Aggressive political EXTREMISM posted by nano, 2011-03-27 23:46:44
Gillard’s spineless Federal Labor government has been scurrying around like the rodents they are looking for a political response to the crushing defeat of Labor in the State of NSW and they think they’ve found a suitable diversionary tactic with which to distract the Australian public and also use as a defence against the constant barrage of onslaughts by Jesuit trained, Nazi attack dog, opposition leader, Tony Abbott!

NATO moves against Libya -- Déjà vu Yugoslavia posted by rad, 2011-03-27 22:14:55
NATO is to take command of all international military operations over Libya, including air strikes on Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's ground forces. [But remember NATO's track record in the Balkans and how they installed a KNOWN murdering criminal as the PM of illegally partitioned Kosovo. Libya is so far an exact repeat performance; an intervention based on fraudulent humanitarian grounds, supporting questionable 'rebels' and (soon) a strategic partition (if regime change fails) in order to appropriate valuable Oil resources and allow for a conduit to existing Mediterranean Oil ports. Brazen organised crime today is undertaken at State levels. The USA and NATO stand condemned while Russia and China stand mute and impotent!] (full story)
