Unlike the very wet American Occupy Wall St 'movement,' which was designed (and managed) to go nowhere and do nothing from the start, pragmatic Aussies have taken matters into their own hands in the form of a CLASS ACTION against the outrageous profiteering by the already bloated, parasitic, Big Banks.

 US Senate Passes Indefinite Detention on 'Suspicion' Bill
baz, Friday, Dec 2 2011, 7:48pm
The US Senate recently passed a military spending Bill, which included a provision that allows the corrupt State to apprehend and detain citizens without trial or charge INDEFINITELY on SUSPICION of terrorist activities! Anyone who has ever been tortured and verballed by criminal ruling authorities is aware of the full implications of this undisguised Nazi Bill.
It is a very sad day in the history of a nation that was ONCE the bastion of Democracy and Freedom -- R.I.P The American Constitution and Bill of Rights. (story and 2 comments)

NATO’s Extremists Continue Program of Ethnic and Ideological Cleansing in Libya
Gerald A. Perreira via gan, Thursday, Dec 1 2011, 9:39pm
The western media blackout on Libya is ongoing as horrendous crimes against the people continue to be committed unchallenged by corrupt International UN officials and other western legal Institutions.
The world can add another expression to the list of neo-con permanent war horror slogans of the 21st century -- "IDEOLOGICAL CLEANSING", which is the elimination of any voice, notion or thought against the ruling criminal elite! (story and 2 images)

Target Iran: Another Banker/Corporatist Unnecessary War
Tom Burghardt via fleet, Tuesday, Nov 29 2011, 10:43pm
If American financial and Corporatist ruling elites are still able to gauge public opinion or the GLOBAL mood, they would be aware that the entire WORLD is fed up with America's CORPORATIST WARS of plunder and civilian killing for the benefit/profit of the FEW. I refer to the "few" that CONTINUE to shower themselves in undeserved bonuses while they foreclose and throw average American citizens onto the streets, AFTER those same citizens bailed Wall St Bankers and Corporatist scum out of trouble -- that's 'gratitude' for YOU! WHO OR WHAT ARE YOU/WE FIGHTING FOR, PEOPLE; an honourable cause or elitist profiteering criminals who regard the population as no better than EXPENDABLE beasts of burden?
There is no honour or SENSE fighting Wall St/CORPORATIST wars. Russia and China-SUPPORTED Iran is no threat to the USA or anyone else, though LYING Zionists would have us believe otherwise! (story and 1 comment)

Reprehensible, Ungodly, Criminal Obama

First let me state plainly that Obama is a willing servile puppet of the financial and corporate ruling elites; he was/is the second choice option for the office of president – you would remember first choice, Colin Powell, who declined the offer for personal reasons. (story and 1 image)

Google's Partiality and Data Suppression Indicated Yet Again
Kismo, Sunday, Nov 27 2011, 10:05pm
Google's initial role as benign Search Engine has recently extended, with CIA partners, the Bilderberg Group and others, into areas that clearly indicate it is no longer the impartial SE it once was; its additional roles as a surveillance and data mining entity for various nefarious agencies has been covered in previous posts. However, it becomes plain that these new 'data management' activities COMPROMISE its neutrality and service to the public, as various appearances before both European and US anti-trust inquiries clearly indicate.

More Infantile antics from the Australian Labor Party
bluey, Saturday, Nov 26 2011, 9:53pm
Between the two of them, Gillard and Rudd, there won’t be much left of the ALP or Australia for that matter! Washington door mat, Juliar ‘Goldman Tax’ Gillard, by signing off on an unprecedented F-I-V-E full scale US military bases, which the yanks can build any time they wish, has UNNECESSARILY (that’s the issue) made Australia a PRIMARY NUCLEAR TARGET in the event of an American provoked (10 years of CRIMINAL warfare) conflict with China, brilliant!

Venezuela Repatriates its Foreign Gold Reserves
staff report via gan, Saturday, Nov 26 2011, 7:06am
The Criminal Bankers of the Reserve System have PROVEN they are very quick to appropriate the assets and gold reserves of nations they wish to conquer.
Roosevelt, under instruction from Bankers at the time, began this form of robbery/asset freezes during WWII. It is ludicrous for any nation to allow their bullion reserves to languish in foreign Banks and Vaults of the CRIMINAL Reserve Banking System. They are very quick to appropriate the sovereign assets/wealth of nations they do not like. (story and 1 image)

ulysses, Friday, Nov 25 2011, 8:34am
One week after US puppet president Obama threatened and insulted China during a scripted speech delivered to a joint sitting of the AUSTRALIAN Parliament, which also served to demonstrate Washington's COMPLETE domination over the Gillard government, two critically important CIA spy networks in Iran and Lebanon have been comprehensively compromised with the arrest of numerous US agents and operatives -- who continue to spill their guts as I write!
