 Millions taking Statin drugs 'needlessly'
Stephen Adams via pete, Tuesday, Jan 25 2011, 8:38pm
Big Pharma is pushing the notion that dangerous Statin DRUGS -- recently recalled in many nations -- be re-classified as 'supplements' and offered "free" in fast food outlets with every serve of junk food to combat the deleterious effects of fast food -- give me a break on that logic!
Rather than regulate the slow poison fast 'food' industry, which is effectively slow-killing the population, other Corporate giants, collectively known as 'Big Pharma,' have offered a 'solution' that actually compounds the problem -- just add laboratory manufactured dangerous (but profitable) drugs to the mix to really ensure the population dies young, sick and fast and to hell with the medical and associated costs to the nation! Remember, that the American FDA, in true Orwellian double-logic, recently insisted (regulated in fact) that Genetically Modified 'foods' should NOT be listed as such on product labels -- what next? [See video below.]
The following story presents a balance to the insane proposition offered by an obviously bought 'medical researcher.' Big Pharma is only interested in its bottom line, not your health and well being.

Food Speculation: 'People Die from Hunger While Banks Make a Killing on Food'
John Vidal via reed, Monday, Jan 24 2011, 9:17am
It's not just bad harvests and climate change; it's also speculators that are behind record prices. And it's the planet's poorest who pay.

Criminal Kosovo: America’s Gift to Europe
Diana Johnstone via stele, Monday, Jan 24 2011, 8:33am
U.S. media have given more attention to hearsay allegations of Julian Assange’s sexual encounters with two talkative Swedish women than to an official report accusing Kosovo prime minister Hashim Thaci of running a criminal enterprise which, among almost every other crime in the book, has murdered prisoners in order to sell their vital organs on the world market.

Hackers Force Shutdown of Europe’s Largest ETS Carbon Con
nano, Thursday, Jan 20 2011, 11:01pm
A digital attack in Europe’s fledgling $100 billion carbon market netted hackers over $38 million in carbon credits. The attack forced the shutdown of Europe’s entire ETS trading apparatus. To state that computer network security in various EU member States is uncoordinated and inadequate would be stating the obvious. Securing systems uniformly in diverse European States presents as a nightmare/joke.

Tony Blair, War Criminal and LIAR, what’s New?
styx, Tuesday, Jan 18 2011, 7:45pm
The following piece from London's Daily Mail is old news; Blair not only misled parliament he also deceived the British people; Blair, Bush and Howard, the 'coalition of willing' puppets, were clearly placed and maintained in power to serve specific interests and follow a Corporate agenda -- 'their' total disregard for the LAW, demonstrated by the illegal invasion of Iraq and the civilian holocaust that resulted, is ample proof that the interests they serve consider themselves ABOVE the LAW. While Bush, Blair and Howard remain free to enjoy the fruits of their criminal actions, we all pay the price and suffer the consequences of their actions and OUR INACTIONS.
Blair is a known LIAR and war criminal, responsible, with his coalition partners, for the first civilian holocaust of the new century – SO WHAT IS SOCIETY DOING ABOUT IT? That is THE ISSUE. (story and 3 comments and 2 images)

Cyber War -- a 21st Century Reality
Kismo, Monday, Jan 17 2011, 10:38pm
Western powers have been slow to develop skills in the crucial theatre of cyber warfare; nevertheless it seems, they have finally engaged. An unsubstantiated report from the UK Telegraph claims that a joint Israeli-US cyber attack may have compromised critical computer systems at Iran’s largest nuclear facility.

The Pentagon’s Response

Never ever assume you’ve seen or heard the worst from the USA, as the sociopaths that rule that nation never cease assailing honour, truth, justice, morality and integrity. Just when you think that nation couldn’t possibly sink any lower, the bar of common decency and morality is lowered AGAIN. (story and 1 image)

War Crimes Incorporated
gan, Thursday, Jan 13 2011, 8:33pm
Today’s unwanted but NECESSARY home Truth is, Drone ‘warfare’ is a WAR CRIME. It kills far more civilians than combatants. It fuels VEHEMENT opposition to the U.S. and its puppet allies. But worst of all, it clearly indicates the FAILURE of the U.S. military and their best strategists to deal legally with modern warfare. (story and 1 comment)

Yes, we CAN RESTORE our DEMOCRACIES
paladin, Wednesday, Jan 12 2011, 7:28am
The following video is an INSPIRING compilation of speeches and responses by Jack Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Texan Libertarian, Ron Paul.
The conservative executive, Bankers and Corporatists behind them, had two of these men assassinated; is it not time to bring today's KNOWN criminals to trial? The criminal Corporatist elites have wrought so much misery and havoc on the world that we simply cannot allow it to continue.. YES WE CAN RID OURSELVES OF THE CRIMINAL FILTH THAT HAVE HIJACKED OUR GOVERNMENTS AND DEMOCRACIES. (story and 2 comments)

Racial Divide USA
swift, Sunday, Jan 9 2011, 8:09am
Think of the LEGION of Corporate and Wall St criminals that instigate wars, corrupt our governments, destroy global economies, pollute our planet, destroy our jobs and continue to receive bonuses. Contrast the treatment of brazen 'white' collar criminals with the unjust VICTIMIZATION of blacks and other racial minorities in America.
The United States is not becoming a Police State, it IS a Police State, as this shocking video clearly indicates.

Pentagon Guilty of Criminal Negligence in Iraq -- countless lives needlessly lost
swift, Friday, Jan 7 2011, 9:12pm
The following story does an admirable job of describing past events that clearly reveal the incompetence and bungling of the US military during its illegal invasion of Iraq. Indeed, any person, organisation or nation that has had any experience with the yanks knows only too well the lack of expertise, gross negligence and dangerous rustic arrogance that characterises everything American, including its Corporate controlled military. But the story fails miserably in ONE critical area, ANALYSIS! (story and 1 image)
