Oz PM on way to Carbon Tax Hell
quill, Monday, Mar 7 2011, 9:34am
Lying bitch Oz PM, Julia Gillard – ‘my government will never introduce a carbon tax’ – has taken a predictable hammering in the latest polls; primarily as a consequence of her LACK of INTEGRITY regarding introducing a Carbon Tax; notwithstanding her shameless kowtowing to Transnationals, Banking and other Corporate interests.

Michael Moore addresses the ‘whipped-dog,’ moronic, paralysed, AMERICAN masses
Michael Moore via stan, Sunday, Mar 6 2011, 8:58pm
Contrary to what those in power would like you to believe so that you'll give up your pension, cut your wages, and settle for the life your great-grandparents had, America is not broke. Not by a long shot. The country is awash in wealth and cash. It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks and the portfolios of the uber-rich. (story and 2 images)

Western Media Blackout on Second National day of Rage in Iraq
Dirk Adriaensens via stele, Saturday, Mar 5 2011, 6:59pm
It will soon become apparent to the entire WORLD, regardless of all the feeble attempts by the western media to suppress the Truth of over one million civilian deaths, a HOLOCAUST by definition, 5 million displaced persons and a ruined state.
The West's attempts to Balkanise Iraq -- fragment a single nation into numerous, powerless statelettes for easier 'management' -- HAVE FAILED, as the IRAQI PEOPLE realise their only hope for future peace, stability and PROSPERITY is UNITY of will and purpose.
The Iraqi people today vigorously oppose all corruption, puppet government, geographic and social divisions within their nation and will continue to RESIST until ALL FOREIGN CRIMINAL INVADERS have been removed from THEIR traditional lands.
Be advised all western occupying criminal forces responsible for numerous war and other crimes committed against the Iraqi people that your days in Iraq are numbered! (story and 1 image)

You can't have your CFR and eat it too!
gan, Friday, Mar 4 2011, 9:25am
Hillary Clinton, herself a CFR protégé, admitted openly that US mass media is substandard and American news networks do not broadcast real news! No doubt CFR members, Rockefeller, Rupert Murdoch and other media owners/magnates will be impressed over the remarks of ingrate Clinton. [It was the CFR that determined to marshal and shape the US mass media into what it is today.] (story and 2 comments and 2 images)

The Genitals or the Box-Cutters - that is the Question for America’s TSA
baz, Thursday, Mar 3 2011, 12:02am
TSA personnel -- who clearly require psychological testing and competence training -- have no problems fondling the genitals of strangers who refuse deadly, airport X-Ray scans, BUT they FAIL in their PRIMARY TASK of detecting weapons in hand luggage! I mean, this level of incompetence is even beyond that of personnel that walk the corridors of the White House and the Pentagon.

The Global Financial FRAUD
Hon. Paul Hellyer via stan, Tuesday, Mar 1 2011, 8:44pm
The Hon. Paul Hellyer, P.C. former Canadian Minister of National Defence delivered this address at Fort McDowell Resort, Scottsdale, Arizona, 26 February, 2011.
The world financial system is a total fraud. It is one gargantuan Ponzi scheme, no better than the one Bernie Madoff used to swindle his friends and neighbors, and thousands of times worse if you add up the total number of victims it has ripped off over countless generations.

Infamous TAX EVADING Shopping Mall Magnate [maggot], Frank Lowy, hands reins to sons
sonny, Tuesday, Mar 1 2011, 7:10pm
Czech-born Jewish refugee, Frank 'tax is for gentiles and suckers' Lowy, is handing control of his giant shopping mall group, 'Westfields,' to his sons, Steven and Peter. However, the Australian public will remember scumbag, TAX EVADER, Lowy, for his political connections to the previous Liberal government. When Lowy found himself making front page news for tax evasion, he appealed to then PM, John 'deputy sheriff' Howard and the matter was quickly backgrounded and quietly dealt with. Liechtenstein banks are forever grateful to John Howard for the vast amounts of tax evading money they hold for the semitic Lowys.

Large crack opens in the earth in southern Peru
staff report via baz, Sunday, Feb 27 2011, 11:54pm
A number of geophysicists and others have predicted that the earth will undergo drastic geological upheaval in this period. Recent quakes in New Zealand signal events on opposite side of Pacific, as is the usual case with these movements.
According to predictions, Etna and Pele are the main indicators. Soothsayers and scientists seem to agree that we are in for a 'big one' and it ain't gonna be pleasant. Drastic pole shift scenarios are also predicted, in which case entire continents could be flooded overnight. Apparently the earth undergoes these 'cleansing periods' when man's perversity gets out of hand. If that is the case it's gonna be a rough ride.

ANONYMOUS targets Tea Party funders, Charles and David Koch

The decentralized protest group "Anonymous" has a new target: no, it's not a middle eastern dictator, a major bank or even a bit player in the military-industrial complex. It's none other than Tea Party financiers Charles and David Koch, an open letter stated -- for their attempts "to usurp American Democracy," with money we presume!

The Pentagon Needs More Wars
Paul Craig Roberts via reed, Saturday, Feb 26 2011, 6:48am
CORPORATE puppet, President Obama, stated openly that the US is looking at all options including military intervention in Libya. So concerned is he over a few thousand casualties that he threatens military invasion -- GIVE THE WORLD A BREAK! There's the 'little' matter of over ONE MILLION DEAD CIVILIANS in Iraq -- the first holocaust of the 21st century -- which the USA is DIRECTLY responsible for; it is now public record that the invasion was orchestrated and based on LIES.

High Ranking former CIA agent Labels US Gov as FASCIST
John Pilger via stan, Friday, Feb 25 2011, 8:09pm
Shortly after the invasion of Iraq in 2003, I interviewed Ray McGovern, one of an elite group of CIA officers who prepared the President’s daily intelligence brief. McGovern was at the apex of the "national security" monolith that is American power and had retired with presidential plaudits. On the eve of the invasion, he and 45 other senior officers of the CIA and other intelligence agencies wrote to President George W. Bush that the "drumbeat for war" was based not on intelligence, but LIES. (story and 1 comment)
