 Obama Ignores Democracy, pursues Minority Agenda
Simon Mann via reed, Thursday, Jun 16 2011, 8:39am
WASHINGTON: War-weary members of Congress have challenged Barack Obama on two fronts, asking a court to put an end to US involvement in the attack on Libya and calling for a big reduction of American troops in Afghanistan from next month. (story and 1 image)

 OWNED: CIA Web site hacked, group LulzSec takes credit
Ellen Nakashima via Kismo, Wednesday, Jun 15 2011, 10:24pm
The hacker group LulzSec claimed credit Wednesday for taking down the CIA’s Web site for a couple of hours, the latest in a string of embarrassing Web site disruptions the group has pulled off — apparently more to poke fun and highlight vulnerabilities than to cause real damage.

Juliar Gillard, ‘bule kesasar’ – White European Lost in the Jungle
bluey, Wednesday, Jun 15 2011, 9:44pm
The grossly incompetent and ridiculously out of touch Gillard Labor Government has just been trounced by Parliament for yet another INADEQUATE, knee-jerk plan to establish offshore refugee clearing centres in Malaysia; a PRIMITIVE MUSLIM NATION KNOWN INTERNATIONALLY FOR ITS BARBARITY. So I chose a denigrating bahasa Malay/Indonesian expression in the title that ACCURATELY describes Gillard and her completely out of touch, LOST government. (story and 1 comment)

'Tracebook' denies Users Leaving in Droves
staff report via reed, Wednesday, Jun 15 2011, 12:00am
Favourite police and agency resource, Facebook, recently denied losing users though the stats would indicate otherwise. It seems the alienated, lost generation has finally become disillusioned with their 'digital friends' and a company that refuses to delete sensitive data at the request of the user!
Collecting highly personal and detailed profiling data was not enough for this intrusive company. Facebook has now included a Big Brother type digital face recognition 'feature' which would allow authorities to detect you in a crowd with street cameras, should the (future) occasion arise!
Wake up, you LOST, lonely, morons! (story and 1 image)

Banks: Criminal Collusion to Avoid Responsibility/Liability

While people suffer oppressive debt and ever increasing taxes, Banking and Financial elites OPENLY engage in criminal activity -- how does it feel, suckers?

Washington Darling Silvio Berlusconi gets a taste of REAL Democracy
dasha, Tuesday, Jun 14 2011, 9:57am
Former media magnate and temporary Prime Minister of Italy, Silvio Berlusconi, has been jerked back to reality with an overwhelming defeat; though the issue related to nuclear energy, the PEOPLE expressed more than that issue required. Clearly THE MAJORITY of Europeans have had enough of corrupt, elitist government and MASS MEDIA DECEPTION, Berlusconi’s speciality! Analysts are now pondering the ramifications for other European lackey leaders, Papandreou, Sarkozy, Cameron, Merkel and a host of newly corrupted East European puppets that toe Washington’s DEEPLY UNPOPULAR, permanent war, civilian killing (and via its IMF and World Bank) AUSTERITY, line!

Why NATO Continues Assassination attempts on Gaddafi

'Internet in a Suitcase'
nano, Monday, Jun 13 2011, 11:03am
The trillions in DEBT Obama administration has just spent more money it doesn’t have (over $50m) – keep printing Ben -- in a desperate bid to maintain its version of reality in nations that wish to preserve their cultural integrity. A portable peer (with satellite link) communications apparatus, dubbed, “internet in a suitcase,” is being developed by misguided enthusiasts and techno freaks for LYING, criminal American agencies and the Pentagon mis/disinformation arm – I would certainly think twice before assisting KNOWN civilian killing criminal governments regardless of the amount of toilet paper money offered.

90% of General Petraeus' Captured 'Taliban' Were Civilians!
Gareth Porter via gan, Sunday, Jun 12 2011, 11:58pm
There is no avoiding the HARSH reality today that American military personnel are uniformed mercenaries fighting illegal, civilian killing, Corporate wars against people who want nothing more than to be rid of all murdering foreign invaders and occupiers.
From the Balkans to Libya the Corporate mass media's LIES have become transparent and the war crimes obvious; "humanitarian/terrorist," pretexts exposed!
ALL the wars that rage today are fought in the CRIMINAL INTERESTS of Central Reserve Banking and Transnational Corporations -- plain to see!
The vile, mass murdering, criminal filth behind these NEEDLESS wars are known to us all; they deserve the harshest penalties available under the LAW for their complicity in the most heinous crimes committed this century and for the mass deception their media attempted on the WORLD'S MORAL MAJORITY!

How Banks Create and Destroy Money
Robert Bonomo via stan, Sunday, Jun 12 2011, 10:42am
The mechanics of modern banking are opaque, misunderstood and arguably dishonest. Modern fiat money, the dollar, euro, yen etc are all based on debt. For every dollar in existence, there is somewhere an IOU for the same amount. This is best illustrated with an example of a typical mortgage. (story and 1 comment and 1 image)

IMF hit by 'very major' cyber security attack
hydra, Saturday, Jun 11 2011, 9:35pm
For those still under the spell of the mis/disinformation mass media -- the MESSAGE IS CLEAR, PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING BACK! Whether on the streets of Greece and other European nations or via other means, including DIGITAL WARFARE -- THE 'MAN' is GOING DOWN. A world led by mass murdering criminal Bankers and Corporatists is completely UNACCEPTABLE. Justice will prevail as WE will PREVAIL.

Western Media suffers selective Blindness
uri, Saturday, Jun 11 2011, 11:21am
The corporate propaganda machine known as the western media is doing itself no favours selectively reporting 'news.' The huge demonstrations and social uprisings in Greece against the IMF, European Reserve Bank and imposed austerity measures, barely rate a mention but Libya, the darling war of Bankers and Oil companies, gains saturation coverage. Social 'revolutions' in the Middle East and North Africa fomented by the CIA gain huge coverage but popular PEOPLE'S revolutions in Europe are ignored. (story and 2 comments)

The Phantasm of Opposition in Today’s World
Al, Saturday, Jun 11 2011, 2:10am
First, allow me to qualify the title for those who stubbornly refuse to believe or acknowledge the existence of an elitist, Financial/Corporatist, globalist agenda.
THREE independent NUCLEAR superpowers exist in the world today. We know the combined force of any two could easily OBLITERATE the third; I refer of course to Russia, China and America. Now, recall the Sino-Russian military alliance designed as a political and military counter-balance to the perceived strength of the USA. Indeed, the combined strength of Russia and China easily exceeds that of America alone, though with the addition of Western European nuclear powers the balance becomes almost equal again, though the Sino-Russian pact remains the stronger.

 Robert Gates: maintain occupation of all invaded territories
stan, Thursday, Jun 9 2011, 11:26pm
US career politician, Robert Gates, dutifully lectured NATO defence chiefs recently on the need to maintain occupying forces in invaded territories and NOT to withdraw THEIR troops when the US begins to reduce its forces in Afghanistan. Gates cited the threat of ‘instability’ (which invasion and foreign occupation creates) and the likely loss of the precarious ‘gains’ made by occupying forces as causes for concern.

China warns U.S. debt-default idea is "playing with fire"
Emily Kaiser via fleet, Thursday, Jun 9 2011, 1:04am
Notwithstanding the fact that China like every other nation is AWARE that the USA is unable to honour its fourteen (14) trillion dollar national debt! We hope all nations that subscribe to the criminal Reserve Central Banking System enjoy getting their fingers burned by the criminal Banking elites in America. Russia and China, by supporting the dollar, are as much to blame for ALL America's raging illegal wars as America itself.
It would have been prudent to voluntarily dump the dollar and be rid of the problem once and for all, than to have criminally corrupt Americans DEFAULT on DEBT at a time of THEIR choosing! You deserve everything you are about to receive China/Russia! (story and 1 comment and 1 image)

Pope Ratzinger: A Dead Spiritual Loss
fish, Thursday, Jun 9 2011, 12:10am
Recently the Roman Catholic Pope, in a failed PR exercise, took questions from children regarding God and Catholic theology; a nine year old girl put it straight to the Pontiff, ‘why is there so much suffering, hunger and war in the world?’ The Pope answered honestly, “I don’t know!” How’s that for a spiritually bankrupt FRAUD? The Pope’s only saving grace is that he answered the question honestly. (story and 1 comment and 1 image)

There were no WMD, as criminal corporate facilitators Rumsfeld, Cheney, Blair, Bush and Howard swore repeatedly – these mass murdering LIARS must be arrested and held accountable until the entire sordid and vile truth is revealed.

700ft Metallic Penis found on Mars
glenn, Monday, Jun 6 2011, 11:50am
An amateur astronomer has discovered, with the assistance of CIA partner Google, what appears to be a metallic cylindrical structure on Mars -- Orson Wells would be proud. All I have to say after listening to the alarmist gibberish by the 'discoverer' is, only in (lobotomised) America!
The REAL news back on earth is far more interesting; Iceland, Portugal, Greece, Spain and Ireland are about to default on their sovereign debt while an Indian Yogi (with 30 million followers) has pledged to fast to death in protest of systemic corruption in Government. It seems Bankers and their Madison Ave partners are getting desperate.
Gee, 'i hope it's not a weapon' too, you mindless moron. No population on earth is as frightened and as gullible as the American population -- home of chicken shits, land of morons and quivering cowards! (story and 2 comments)
