 Western war criminals take refuge in denial posted by finch, 2009-01-11 07:42:43
In the dying years of the FAILED international conservative push, efforts to hide and disguise the many war and other crimes perpetrated by conservatives became impossible. Failed wars, civilian holocausts, $10 trillion debts and ruined states defy all attempts to re-present them as other than what they are – FIASCOS! (full story and 1 comments)

  NASA Scientist -- Australia threatens life on Earth! posted by major mitchell, 2009-01-09 10:45:19
And we thought we’d amount to nothing more than a bunch of cringing, apathetic cowards led by super lackeys, Howard and Rudd! (full story and 2 comments)

Israel's Dress Rehearsal for Lebanon posted by Mike Whitney via reed, 2009-01-08 19:57:33
"The raw logic of Israel’s distorted self-image and racist doctrines is exposed beyond confusion by the now-stark reality: the moonscape rubble of once-lovely Lebanese villages; a million desperate people trying to survive Israeli aerial attacks as they carry children and wheel disabled grandparents down cratered roads; limp bodies of children pulled from the dusty basements of crushed buildings. This is the reality of Israel’s national doctrine, the direct outcome of its racist worldview." Virginia Tilley "The Case for Boycotting Israel" in Counterpunch. (full story and 1 comments)

 Howard displaces Obama in Blair House posted by quill, 2009-01-07 19:58:19
Australia’s Obama-bashing, racist, conservative former PM, John ‘deputy sheriff’ Howard, is currently occupying the traditional premises of the President Elect prior to inauguration, the historic Blair House in Washington. Obama and family have been forced to play second fiddle to Howard who is in Washington to receive an award from Bush. Forcing the President Elect to defer to a former leader of an insignificant little, servile nation of cringing cowards and lackeys is a disgrace – skin colour continues to matter in America it seems! The displacement was clearly intentional; self-confessed racist, John Howard, is well-pleased at the 'honour' accorded him by his partner in crime, G W Bush. However, the shame associated with this despicable act is all America's! (full story)

 Massive dollar collapse imminent .. posted by Edmund Conway via reed, 2009-01-07 10:29:26
The world simply would not tolerate America irresponsibly printing more money in order to save its economy. There's more than a hole in the bucket dear Obama, the Bush regime blew the bottom out and no amount of printing VALUELESS toilet paper money can save the situation. (full story and 2 comments)

 Exposing God, the root of the Problem! posted by finch, 2009-01-06 23:22:46
Everything we know, including our knowledge of ‘God,’ NECESSARILY (must) refer back to the source of production of that knowledge, HUMANITY! That rather obvious fact should be self-evident, however, few are able to appreciate the clarity and simplicity of TRUTH – have you not yet noticed that everything we know of ‘God’ has been PRODUCED and encoded BY MAN? Furthermore, all man-made Gods are peculiar to and described by the idiosyncrasies of the cultures that created/produced them! (full story)

 The nation’s First Family smiles while the blood of innocents flows posted by quin, 2009-01-05 07:26:06
What an utterly tragic and perfect disgrace. The first family of the USA is all smiles while other ‘less human’ families and children are blown to bits or lay dying in hospitals deprived of medicines and supplies – the result of an Israeli blockade and murderous attack on Gaza! We are reminded of the Clinton embargo on Iraq which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi ‘sub-human’ children; a price considered “worth it” by former Democrat Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright -- a taste of things to come!

Government propaganda ministry biggest advertiser in UK! posted by quill, 2009-01-04 01:11:03
Now there’s a revealing little morsel (see insert), but not a complete surprise as it matches proportional increases in advertising spending by the Australian and other Western governments – the propaganda expenditure in the USA, the nation with the most to hide and disguise, cannot be assessed as the figure is astronomical! Donald Rumsfeld, as Secretary of Defence, couldn’t account for $2.3 TRILLION, which ‘somehow’ disappeared in his Department, what hope then for accurate figures from thousands of agencies servicing various governments across the USA?

 Obama and a status quo we can believe in! posted by nano, 2009-01-03 00:30:26
Sit back, relax and we’ll do it for you – why not exploit existing conditioning? It would not be an oversimplification to state that Obama won a presidential campaign based on two words and one second-hand slogan, ‘Change,’ ‘Hope’ and ‘Yes we can!’ In any other nation people would have demanded generous helpings of DETAIL served with their ambiguities, but not in lobotomised America, a land where a good slogan can take you to the top. The American people have once again paid the price for investing meaning where none previously existed – it’s an old (tired) advertising TRICK that continues to work on gullible, ill-educated populations!

 Sing it! Bye, bye, bye, Obama; fly, fly, fly, Credibility .. posted by Staff report via talya, 2009-01-01 21:11:54
Former Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney has called upon President-Elect Barack Obama to "please, say something about the humanitarian crisis that is being experienced by the Palestinian people, by the people of Gaza." McKinney spoke to CNN news from the Lebanese city of Tyre, where she had debarked from the relief vessel Dignity after it was rammed on the high seas by an Israeli patrol boat, early Tuesday morning. Passengers also report the Israelis fired machine guns into the water near their ship. (full story and 1 comments)

 The Crisis of Common Sense: Is It So Difficult To Understand The Financial Crisis? posted by Matthias Chang via rialator, 2009-01-01 19:21:44
[We all have a thinking, highly evolved BRAIN that loves nothing more than to do its job -- given half a chance it will serve YOU very well indeed.]
Thinking & Common Sense
God gave us a brain to think, to think naturally and in simple terms, not in convoluted ways.
When we think naturally and use common sense to address problems we are able to arrive at simple and effective solutions. However, our education system tortures us mentally and forces us to think in convoluted, unnecessarily complicated ways. Our teachers, economists, politicians and other so-called 'experts' make mountains out of mole-hills, turning simple truths into complex arguments and theories. (full story)

 Failure to heed lessons from recent past spells doom for Obama posted by budgie, 2008-12-30 20:17:38
The 44th Presidency promises to be a watershed in American history but not for the reasons hoped for by vested and other interests – it is over gentlemen! Obama has already been accurately assessed by the people as a betrayer, turncoat, house slave and lackey. (full story)

Leaders LIE, civilians DIE, and lessons of history are IGNORED posted by Robert Fisk via reed, 2008-12-29 20:02:19
We've got so used to the carnage of the Middle East that we don't care any more – providing we don't offend the Israelis. It's not clear how many of the Gaza dead are civilians, but the response of the Bush administration, not to mention the pusillanimous reaction of Gordon Brown, reaffirm for Arabs what they have known for decades: however they struggle against their antagonists, the West will take Israel's side. As usual, the bloodbath was the fault of the Arabs – who, as we all know, only understand force. (full story)

 Nice try, but … posted by dev null, 2008-12-28 21:10:26
The British PM, Gordon Brown, sent as clear a message with his recent “save the world” slip/gaffe in the British Commons as did grotesque rodent and former Oz PM, John Howard upon his return to Oz post 9/11. Howard’s body language spoke volumes at the time though his mouth spewed the usual LIES. Howard, as recorded on national TV news, behaved as though he was ducking a magpie attack, yet no dive-bombing maggies or other tangible threats from overhead were evident, very revealing behaviour indeed! Howard had just been briefed in Washington on the new world order -- as America fantasised it – he was clearly not a happy, CRINGING, LACKEY, COWARD at the time! (full story)

Keeping it simple – so Americans understand! posted by nano, 2008-12-27 22:22:42
Contributors and editors have decided to apply the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) principle to the majority of future posts. It became apparent over time that many people find even pedestrian English difficult to comprehend – no prizes! We have also decided to use language in an offensive manner (both meanings apply) as Evangelicals, space cadets and other assorted losers, run in horror when confronted with colourful words like ‘FUCK’ etc; these ‘mental lepers’ cringe when they encounter the 'SHIT' word -- preferring to use the ridiculous and infantile ‘poo’ instead! We should not forget that these are the same people that do not hesitate to install AND SUPPORT known morons, con-men and mass murderers as their Presidents and leaders. (full story and 2 comments)
