NATO moves against Libya -- Déjà vu Yugoslavia
rad, Sunday, Mar 27 2011, 10:14pm
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!]

Some Cold Hard Truths about Corporatists
may, Saturday, Mar 26 2011, 9:23am
Western 'democracies' today are all but totally under the control of Big Business and Corporatists. So it would be helpful to highlight what we already know about Big Business, Transnationals and the Corporatists that run them.

Earthquake: 10 kilometre crack in a road in Northern Thailand
Zoe Daniel via thriff, Friday, Mar 25 2011, 9:10pm
Yet another tectonic shift and earthquake this time around the Thai-Burma border. Had this quake hit in a heavily populated area it would have been devastating. But NOTE how the mass media is playing down these related events with brief reports lacking detail and without making obvious connections to recent tectonic activity on the Pacific Rim.

The ‘Too Big To Fail’ Myth
quin, Wednesday, Mar 23 2011, 10:00pm
The world remembers the absurd excuse Wall St Bankers and Financiers used to blackmail and force government to handover trillions of dollars in public, taxpayer funds to ‘bail out’ the buffoons and criminals directly responsible for destroying the international economy. At the vanguard of this blackmail plot was a former director of Goldman (ETS) Sachs, then in the role as Chief of Treasury. [Can you imagine the job interview, Hank Paulson informing dubya Bush how and when he liked to be fellated?]

Obama insists actions in Libya serve US [Corporate] interests
Robert Burns via stylus, Wednesday, Mar 23 2011, 2:21am
The World certainly is AWARE that Corporate interests, which control Obama, Congress and the Pentagon, are being served by the current military intervention in North Africa. Libya is yet another US thieving intervention, pure and simple. A US puppet will soon be installed in the soon to be partitioned OIL rich Eastern area of the nation, [if regime change fails]. US criminal actions today are as transparent as wet toilet paper. (story and 1 comment)

Australian Corporatist receives 13 year jail sentence for Dishonesty
bluey, Tuesday, Mar 22 2011, 10:35pm
Victorian Supreme Court Judge, Terry Forrest, stated that criminal Corporatist, Graeme Hoy, had targeted mostly small and 'family' investors with his fraudulent activities. “You have been responsible for fraud on a grand scale ...You practiced it on the vulnerable and gullible.” the judge said. But as every Corporatist knows that IS the NATURE of the GAME! Nevertheless, justice was served in this instance.

Putin, all talk no balls

Gone are the days of strong Russian leaders who didn't think twice about containing Western Imperialism. Today we have 'Vlad the midget,' a little man compensating for his failings and cowardice with squawks and noises rather than CONFRONTATIONAL OPPOSITION -- behold the Russian Bear balancing on a circus ball and behold a Russian leader who has no balls at all!

Zbigniew Brzezinski goes radical performing new role on political stage
Alexey Frolov via stele, Monday, Mar 21 2011, 7:04pm
Do not be misled by the title, Brzezinski has always been a radical arch-Imperialist supporting US world domination. He is an advisor to US presidents, the CFR and similar ELITIST institutions. The paper is an interesting take on his latest views, which could help explain recent attitudes and events in the Middle East and North Africa but it should not be taken at face value -- the man is an unabashed Imperialist and is certainly correct in his assessment of an overwhelming tide of opposition against the civilian killing, mass murdering, Corporatist filth known as America.

The Kosovo Solution for Libya
corey, Sunday, Mar 20 2011, 9:56pm
Criminal western forces led by global bully America -- with double standards and searing hypocrisies blazing -- are moving militarily on the OIL RESERVES of Libya. The only ruffle in their plans is Gaddafi’s declaration of a ceasefire, which delays but will not thwart western plans to appropriate North Africa’s wealth. The EXCUSE for military intervention is the West’s 'concern' for the safety of civilians. Obama, from Washington, ‘demanded an end to civilian killing(!)’ -- while making this statement Obama and other clowns in Washington expect the entire WORLD to IGNORE American Drones killing civilians almost daily and that notwithstanding the historical FACT that not one American or NATO member has ever been held accountable for the first civilian HOLOCAUST of the 21st Century in Iraq – which would NOT have occurred but for the US/NATO invasion!

War Crazy USA Launches 112 Tomahawk Missiles into Libya
Robert Burns via quill, Saturday, Mar 19 2011, 9:05pm
The U.S. military attacked Moammar Gadhafi’s air defenses Saturday with strikes along the Libyan coast that were launched by Navy vessels in the Mediterranean. A senior military official said the assault would unfold in stages and target air defense installations around Tripoli, the capital, and a coastal area south of Benghazi. That’s the rebel stronghold under attack by Moammar Gadhafi’s forces. (story and 1 image)
