 NATO's BLOOD FEST
Cynthia McKinney via stele, Tuesday, May 24 2011, 10:59pm
NATO is now engaged in a bombing FRENZY of a civilian target, the City of Tripoli -- but do we hear the 'humanitarian intervention' UN, ICC and other international legal authorities or spineless 'superpowers' Russia and China, crying FOUL? NO! It should now be CLEAR to even the dimmest, uninformed American that conducting open warfare on a civilian city is far from a 'humanitarian' action! The WORLD is witnessing the OVERT criminal actions of the most criminally corrupt States and corrupt International ('humanitarian') Organisations (the UN and ICC included) on the planet! That's right morons, it's now undeniable and it's served up in the media on a daily basis.
The next time ANYONE/body or org cries "humanitarian intervention," YOU KNOW it's a veil for criminal enterprise -- conducted primarily by the criminal US/NATO and puppet allies -- the PROOF and TRUTH is in YOUR FACE! (story and 2 images)

 Oz Carbon Tax in a Nutshell

First let me say that climate change is REAL and constant, as the geological and meteorological record clearly indicates; BUT that has no bearing whatsoever on the Goldman Sachs designed PENALTY TAX SYSTEM Julia Gillard wishes to IMPOSE on the good citizens of Australia.

 Matt Taibbi, 'got to!'
quill, Saturday, May 21 2011, 11:33am
Alternative, 'independent' journalist Matt Taibbi of Rolling Stone Magazine, seems to have become an apologist for the 'man.' I could scarcely believe my ears (see video) when out of Taibbi's own mouth he stated that mostly 'good people' are in the government -- knowing full well that almost all of Congress has been bought by Wall St. He also stated that the US Corporate media is NOT a 'top down' propaganda apparatus but is captive to profit seeking -- he seems to have forgotten the outrageous, concerted, brazen propaganda sell of the Iraq invasion complete with WMD LIES and babypowder anthrax.

Bradley Manning HERO, Incarcerated and Tortured by US Criminal Powers
Peter Tatchell via gan, Saturday, May 21 2011, 12:08am
Bradley Manning has not 'broken' after 9 months of acute and sustained psychological TORTURE! He exhibits exceptionally strong moral convictions and strong MORAL character, which no doubt have enabled him to maintain his personal integrity under the most horrific and sadistic conditions and torture. Anyone who has been subjected to prolonged psychological torture would inform you immediately that this man is exceptional and indeed a HERO. His exceptional strength and courage and the criminal torture he has suffered continue to COMPROMISE criminal forces in Washington and the Pentagon. (story and 1 comment and 1 image)

‘Humanitarian intervention’ becomes full-scale illegal war in Libya
stan, Friday, May 20 2011, 9:33am
Seemingly frustrated by Col. Gaddafi’s tenacity, and its INABILITY to end the Libyan invasion quickly and install compliant puppet leaders, NATO has begun a full scale war targeting and sinking eight Libyan war ships moored in harbour. Add to that attack the thousands of NATO air sorties already conducted and we have an unmandated WAR in progress. Remember that the feeble excuse for ‘intervention’ originally was to protect civilians; I would wager at this stage that NATO and CIA backed rebels are responsible for more civilian deaths than any other force in Libya. Iraq is a very good example/model of an US/NATO conducted oil war which resulted in over ONE MILLION CIVILIAN DEATHS, all directly and indirectly caused by invading forces. Here we go again!

China’s recent Bravado, Hot ‘Yellow’ Air
stan, Thursday, May 19 2011, 8:42pm
China is attempting to assert itself on the world stage by warning “in unequivocal terms that any attack on Pakistan would be construed as an attack on China!” Cop that world, we are pretending we have balls! However, after China’s COWARDLY display with traditional ally Yugoslavia and witnessing Bill Clinton laugh openly after intentionally targeting the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade and killing a number of Chinese officials, please accept our incredulity as a response to your feeble mouse squeaks and that notwithstanding China’s paralysis in direct view of America's latest imperial war in North Africa. We can see them all shaking in their shoes in Washington, as they roll on the floor laughing at the giant yellow mouse that aspires to superpower status – what a pathetic joke! It’s ACTIONS, NOT WORDS that convince and demand respect. (story and 1 comment)

Strauss-Kahn Resigns as Chief of IMF
staff report via fleet, Wednesday, May 18 2011, 11:51pm
In a not unexpected statement, 'family man' and former chief of the IMF, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, resigned as head of the Fund, citing his concern for family and the need to focus all his energies on defending charges of attempted rape made against him by a hotel housemaid (and 'friends').

Practical Lessons from the Strauss-Kahn ‘Assassination’

US Supreme Court Approves Warrantless Police Searches on ‘Suspicion’
gan, Monday, May 16 2011, 9:47pm
The torch-bearer of ‘Liberty and Democracy’ in the world -- or so we are led to believe -- has yesterday legally incinerated more civil liberties, freedoms and public safeguards by allowing police to breakdown your door and conduct a warrantless search based on the “suspicion” that (imaginary) evidence is being destroyed – welcome to America, Police State!

Doing an 'Assange' on IMF chief, Strauss-Kahn
dasha, Sunday, May 15 2011, 10:30pm
Consider all aspects of the following political story and its credulity begins to evaporate under the light of reason. The attempted 'rape' story of a 'hotel chamber maid' by the IMF chief, is as absurd as it is extraordinarily stupid.
Strauss-Kahn was about to challenge US asset, Nicolas Sarkozy, for the French presidency and as we all know the overtly criminal US stops at nothing to protect its Imperial interests. The tragedy is the people will fall for this puerile 'fit.' It's all but over for Dominique who obviously wasn't fully complying with the gang's plans. Our suggestion is spill it all, Dominique, the TRUTH of the IMF and international debt SLAVERY. If you must go down in a classic mafia power play, then go down fighting, take the entire corrupt 'house' down with you. (story and 1 comment and 1 image)

The Politics of Raw Milk in NSW

The flagrant injustices, appalling application of Law and clear victimisation of market stall vendor, Mr Peter Melov, at the hands of the NSW Food ‘Authority,’ for selling raw cow’s milk products has now drawn the attention of Australia’s mass media – for very valid reasons. (story and 1 comment)

The Overtly Corrupt ICC Continues to Ignore NATO War Crimes
quill, Friday, May 13 2011, 9:08pm
In a frantic effort to avoid legal responsibility for war crimes, in particular failed attempts on Muammar Gaddafi’s life, which resulted in numerous civilian casualties including the deaths of three young children, US/NATO forces have enlisted the compliant ICC to hurriedly issue arrest warrants for Gaddafi and some of his senior officials. This they hope would legitimise their unmandated assassination attempts on Gaddafi and their colonial invasion. However, NATO’s war crimes would pre-date any warrant hurriedly issued by the exceedingly compliant ICC, the most PARTIAL and farcical legal institution in Europe today.

TEPCO Execs finally admit nuclear meltdown occurred at Fukushima
Julian Ryall via gan, Friday, May 13 2011, 12:12am
But that admission is not the half of it, as anyone who has a smattering of experience with Japanese culture knows. Officials remain 'concerned' that the highly poisonous radioactive material may have burned through the containment vessel and entered the environment. [You can back it in! Again, we implore all our associates in Japan to return home immediately.]
The people you least trust in Japan are criminally corrupt Corporate Executives and their political puppets. The Yakuza are gentlemen in comparison! (story and 1 comment and 1 image)

Security fears for US Navy Seal team
staff report via penguin, Thursday, May 12 2011, 11:21am
Deceased American comedian, Bill Hicks, once joked about a US president with integrity and how the real ruling elite would take him alone into a viewing room and show him repeat footage of the Kennedy assassination 'from a completely new angle' to drive the message home that US presidents either do what they're told or end up dead meat.
