The Use of the Military on Domestic Populations soon to become a Reality
Kevin Zeese via reed, Tuesday, Dec 13 2011, 8:35pm
A radical change in law to allow the use of the military inside the United States, against U.S. citizens and residents, and to allow their indefinite military detention based merely on suspicion of being engaged in hostilities against the U.S is being rushed through congress. This amendment, sponsored by Senators Carl Levin and John McCain, was added in the senate after a closed door hearing and has received overwhelming bi-partisan support on the senate floor, with very little debate.

Add Quakes to Rumblings Over Coal Seam Gas Rush
Henry Fountain via gaz, Tuesday, Dec 13 2011, 7:02am
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio — Until this year, this Rust Belt city and surrounding Mahoning County had been about as dead, seismically, as a place can be, without even a hint of an earthquake since Scots-Irish settlers arrived in the 18th century. (story and 1 image)

Get Over it! -- Banker/Corporate Interests Control Western Governments
beau, Saturday, Dec 10 2011, 9:18pm
Surely the REALITY of Global Banking and Corporatist cartels running (ruining) the global economy and exercising complete control over western governments is widely KNOWN today? Even the dimmest dipsomaniac commentators, analysts and academics seem to have finally caught on. However, some (very few) dipso-journos etc, continue to mis-represent/report the stark REALITY around them!

Xmas Bonuses on Wall St., shit sandwiches for the rest
Sam Pizzigati via reed, Saturday, Dec 10 2011, 12:22am
Criminal Wall Street Bankers and brokers are laughing all the way to THEIR Christmas/Hanuka bonuses while the people learn to eat shit and like it! Why average Americans remain in awe or fear of these,
PARASITIC, criminal scumbags the world may never know? Simply make CONSTANT DEMANDS that KNOWN fraudsters at G Sachs and the other five colluding Big Banks are brought to TRIAL -- is that so difficult? Sure is, Occupy protesters still haven't articulated any demands or viable strategies, all they can do is get arrested for doing NOTHING -- pure 'genius', you pathetic, American, MANAGED clowns!

staff report via stan, Thursday, Dec 8 2011, 11:44pm
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a draft analysis of data Dec. 8 from its Pavillion, Wyoming ground water investigation. At the request of Pavillion residents, EPA began investigating water quality concerns in private drinking water wells three years ago.

The United States of Hypocrisy
judd, Wednesday, Dec 7 2011, 9:51pm
Flagrant double standards and brazen hypocrisy have reduced America's reputation, credibility and moral standing in the world to ZERO. The US Senate with an overwhelming bi-partisan majority recently passed a Bill which included provision for Indefinite detention without trial or charge on SUSPICION! This outrageous thought crime Bill was first introduced by Obama as "preventative detention," so it is CLEAR Washington is following an AGENDA -- the question that urgently requires an answer is, whose agenda is Washington following because it is obvious that government ceased representing the interests of the Democratic Majority decades past?

US Caught Meddling in Russian Elections
Tony Cartalucci via reed, Tuesday, Dec 6 2011, 8:44am
Appearances are rarely the reality, Mr Cartalucci. Let's not miss the forest for the trees; ask yourself direct questions like where was Russia (and China) while US/NATO committed horrendous war and other crimes against humanity in Libya? Do not forget that Putin and Hu sanctioned the 'humanitarian intervention?' Or, better still, where was Russia when it could have easily stopped US/NATO expansionism in the Balkans. Slavic Yugoslavia is blood related; Balkan slavs gave mother Russia (a written) language and Christianity yet the GLOBAL criminal cabal that incorporates Moscow, Beijing and Washington ensure that the push for one world government is never opposed in the real sense. Where was the outrage when NATO/US bombed civilian Belgrade and targeted the Chinese Embassy, killing a number of Chinese nationals? 'Opposition' from Russia and China is purely theatrics.

Lying Nations -- Carbon Emissions HIGHEST on Record
staff report via snowy, Tuesday, Dec 6 2011, 5:23am
Forget tipping point (exceeded years back) the latest stats indicate that no nation has been forthright regarding Carbon reduction programs nor will they ever be; the hard reality of short term expediency has overwhelmed the imperative of long term SURVIVAL -- an unfortunate/insane reality but REALITY nevertheless. All national/local ETS and Carbon Tax programs are now a misplaced policy joke an unnecessary tax burden. Carbon emissions are a GLOBAL problem that require a GLOBAL SOLUTION! (story and 2 images)

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)
