'Paper Gold,' Illusory Money and Political Deception
sy, Sunday, Mar 25 2012, 10:35pm
Much like the recent State elections in Queensland Australia, where the incumbent Labor Party was thoroughly thrashed 78 seats to 6, final figures yet to be released, the Bankster money monopoly game plays the same course.

Scientists Warn of Low-Dose Risks of Chemical Exposure
Elizabeth Grossman via stele, Sunday, Mar 25 2012, 7:52am
A new study finds that even low doses of hormone-disrupting chemicals — used in everything from plastics to pesticides – can have serious effects on human health. These findings, the researchers say, point to the need for basic changes in how chemical safety testing is conducted. (story and 1 image)

Mad Dog America Determined to Start WWIII
vet, Saturday, Mar 24 2012, 9:17am
There are many disturbing aspects to criminally hijacked America today, not least of which is the very clear attitude the UNREPRESENTATIVE, minority Banker and Corporate ruling elite have toward the rest of the world. Modern criminal America has proven emphatically that it does not wish to share or enter into any equitable arrangement with any other nation or people in any regard whatsoever.

North Korean missiles aimed at Australia: US
Ehssan Veiszadeh via stan, Friday, Mar 23 2012, 10:52pm
All Aussies please NOTE that North Korea was never a threat to Oz BEFORE Washington doormat, Gillard allowed Australia to be used as a platform by the US to launch attacks on China and other perceived enemies in the region. Signing off on an UNPRECEDENTED F-I-V-E full scale (nuclear) US military bases of occupation has, as warned by this site, resulted in Australia NOW becoming a PRIMARY NUCLEAR TARGET -- well done you gutless, INCOMPETENT, Canberra clowns!

The Eastern Concept of Dharma and the Perversity of Western Uniformity
sadh, Friday, Mar 23 2012, 10:16pm
Dharma is a fundamental Eastern concept that separates it culturally and ideologically from the West – it doesn’t translate into any western language, however, we are able to render it in a round-about fashion and perhaps appreciate its Eastern meaning.

Oz Labor Party Begs for Mercy
Marissa Calligeros via baz, Thursday, Mar 22 2012, 10:11pm
Begging has never been what could be described as a successful winning strategy to gain political leadership - LOL! However, in the most appalling political turn of events seen anywhere in the world -- probably in all political history -- an Australian, female-led (no reflection on strong, capable, Aussie women of integrity whatsoever), State Labor Government has taken to begging the public for consideration and admitting DEFEAT BEFORE the elections have been held -- My God!

War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity
staff report via fleet, Thursday, Mar 22 2012, 8:19pm
The brutality with which the US government exercises its “war on terror” is condemned both by the court of international public opinion and by the principles of international law governing human rights. The wars of aggression in Iraq and Afghanistan and the torture of detainees are clearly defined as war crimes by the UN Declaration of Human Rights, the Geneva Conventions, the Convention against Torture and other treaties to which the United States is a signatory. Under the cover of "national security," other countries in the region have been drawn into the on-going wars. (story and 1 image)

MegaUpload Barrister: NZ 'kowtowing to US' over Kim Dotcom
Victoria Robinson via lynx, Thursday, Mar 22 2012, 10:10am
Kiwi barrister, Gary Gotlieb, representing Kim Dotcom of MegaUpload, spelled it out plain; the New Zealand lackey government is pandering to US Corporate interests regarding extraditing Kim Dotcom to face charges in the civilian killing, indefinite detention, legal assassination and torture, USA! The FACT is the US executive, including Attorney General, Holder, should be standing trial for its many heinous war crimes and subverting the founding principles of the US Republic. However, the issue here is the New Zealand lackey government, which should be turfed out on its corrupt ear come the next elections. The free world is tired of US hypocrisy, double standards and corrupt lackey governments that kowtow to Washington -- are you reading this, Gillard? (story and 1 image)

Why do we ignore the civilians killed in American wars?
John Tirman via reed, Thursday, Mar 22 2012, 7:32am
The short answer is, 'because almost the entire American population is criminally complicit in the mass murdering, plundering pursuits of the Wall St and Corporatist controlled Executive AND Congress. However, read on and learn what an educated American with a conscience has to say about the criminal travesty of MILLIONS of INNOCENT civilian deaths resulting directly from Banking and Corporate instigated wars for PROFIT!'

The tragedy of WikiLeaks: it’s all about Assange!

The most enduring criticism of Assange by many former WikiLeaks members/volunteers and workers is that a brilliant digital idea somehow degenerated into a cult of personality media circus; it’s now all about Assange! (story and 1 image)

I Believe in the American Dream(world!)

Truly, there is nothing new under the sun regarding human folly, perversity and imbecility. Consider some headlines in today’s alternative newswires; “Afghanistan Massacre - No One Asked Their Names,” Well, of course they didn’t, the first rule of war is to devalue then dehumanise your enemy that way it makes it easier to piss on their corpses, burn their Holy books and rape/slaughter their women and children – you mindless morons, which universe have you been living in since the criminal USA publicly and officially announced that killing 500,000 innocent Iraqi children “WAS WORTH IT?

Oz Mining Magnate Accuses CIA of Subverting Local Coal Industry
styx, Tuesday, Mar 20 2012, 1:51am
In a refreshing conspiratorial twist, Oz mining multi-billionaire, Clive Palmer, has accused Greens leader, Bob 'poop pusher' Brown -- who is on record for supporting a 'One World Government' -- of treason and colluding with a foreign power (CIA) to undermine the local coal industry. Well, I'll be darned, it just goes to show that local Corporatist pigs want the entire trough for themselves. If I hadn't read it in the Oz mass media I would have thought it another whacko conspiracy theory, but Palmer may have something, he is certainly wealthy enough to dig for the facts. I guess the CIA will just have to follow procedure and arrange for Palmer to choke on a ham sandwich! (story and 4 comments and 3 images)

'Just following orders' -- (issued by Sociopaths).
mitch, Monday, Mar 19 2012, 9:37pm
With the recent miscarriages of justice (legal travesties) of US war criminals in military court trials -- cases involving the cowardly, cold-blooded murder of innocent and defenseless women and children in foreign, occupied lands -- it becomes necessary to stir the public memory with the closing statements of our ONCE righteous and moral allies at the Nuremberg war crimes trials:

Do you Remember?
kit, Monday, Mar 19 2012, 11:28am
you stole my peace,
and composure
and replaced my steadfastness
with love
now i am
unsettled,
frenzied
like a crazed monkey
hooting in the night
you may have forgotten me
but i have not forgotten you,
rest easy my enduring love
once touched by this divine madness
you can never return
to the world of transitory illusion
there is no reality outside
Love
what appears as the world
is tribulation, tragedy and woe,
a mirage of the mind
a trick of fate
necessary to guide us
to love's enduring wonder
and return us safely
to our rightful place
in Paradise

The Fear of Dissent and the Road to Totalitarianism
frank, Monday, Mar 19 2012, 1:20am
It doesn’t get much worse than indefinite detention without trial or charge and ‘legal’ assassinations of citizens on secret executive order – even mass murdering Stalin couldn’t get-away with both of those draconian impositions on his people. But American whipped-dog SLAVES lap it up and beg for more! So, not unexpectedly, the latest 'order' puppet president to the plutocrats, Obama, has signed reinforces the totalitarian direction the nation is taking. Unrestrained by law or civil government, you are now officially dispossessed, signed, Emperor of Amerika, Barack Obama! (story and 6 comments)

Kandahar Massacre: Pentagon/Washington Caught Lying yet AGAIN!

It should come as no surprise that a military organisation that exonerates murderers of women and children in Iraq -- Haditha massacre -- LIES and attempts to deceive the public with mindless and FEEBLE stories of recent massacres of women and children in Afghanistan! The Pentagon and Washington are clearly lawless, CRIMINAL organisations, plain to see! The USA remains the world's leading civilian killing, THEREFORE TERRORIST nation, in the WORLD today!
