Kim Dotcom - easy on the hamburgers, dude! MegaUpload Barrister: NZ 'kowtowing to US' over Kim Dotcom posted by Victoria Robinson via lynx, 2012-03-22 10:10:59
Kiwi barrister, Gary Gotlieb, representing Kim Dotcom of MegaUpload, spelled it out plain; the New Zealand lackey government is pandering to US Corporate interests regarding extraditing Kim Dotcom to face charges in the civilian killing, indefinite detention, legal assassination and torture, USA! The FACT is the US executive, including Attorney General, Holder, should be standing trial for its many heinous war crimes and subverting the founding principles of the US Republic. However, the issue here is the New Zealand lackey government, which should be turfed out on its corrupt ear come the next elections. The free world is tired of US hypocrisy, double standards and corrupt lackey governments that kowtow to Washington -- are you reading this, Gillard? (full story)

Iraqi girl Why do we ignore the civilians killed in American wars? posted by John Tirman via reed, 2012-03-22 07:32:59
The short answer is, 'because almost the entire American population is criminally complicit in the mass murdering, plundering pursuits of the Wall St and Corporatist controlled Executive AND Congress. However, read on and learn what an educated American with a conscience has to say about the criminal travesty of MILLIONS of INNOCENT civilian deaths resulting directly from Banking and Corporate instigated wars for PROFIT!'

Assange The tragedy of WikiLeaks: it’s all about Assange! posted by nano, 2012-03-21 23:57:24
The most enduring criticism of Assange by many former WikiLeaks members/volunteers and workers is that a brilliant digital idea somehow degenerated into a cult of personality media circus; it’s now all about Assange! (full story)

I Believe in the American Dream(world!) posted by virgil, 2012-03-21 00:48:58
Truly, there is nothing new under the sun regarding human folly, perversity and imbecility. Consider some headlines in today’s alternative newswires; “Afghanistan Massacre - No One Asked Their Names,” Well, of course they didn’t, the first rule of war is to devalue then dehumanise your enemy that way it makes it easier to piss on their corpses, burn their Holy books and rape/slaughter their women and children – you mindless morons, which universe have you been living in since the criminal USA publicly and officially announced that killing 500,000 innocent Iraqi children “WAS WORTH IT?

Clive Palmer Oz Mining Magnate Accuses CIA of Subverting Local Coal Industry posted by styx, 2012-03-20 01:51:11
In a refreshing conspiratorial twist, Oz mining multi-billionaire, Clive Palmer, has accused Greens leader, Bob 'poop pusher' Brown -- who is on record for supporting a 'One World Government' -- of treason and colluding with a foreign power (CIA) to undermine the local coal industry. Well, I'll be darned, it just goes to show that local Corporatist pigs want the entire trough for themselves. If I hadn't read it in the Oz mass media I would have thought it another whacko conspiracy theory, but Palmer may have something, he is certainly wealthy enough to dig for the facts. I guess the CIA will just have to follow procedure and arrange for Palmer to choke on a ham sandwich! (full story and 4 comments)

'Just following orders' -- (issued by Sociopaths). posted by mitch, 2012-03-19 21:37:09
With the recent miscarriages of justice (legal travesties) of US war criminals in military court trials -- cases involving the cowardly, cold-blooded murder of innocent and defenseless women and children in foreign, occupied lands -- it becomes necessary to stir the public memory with the closing statements of our ONCE righteous and moral allies at the Nuremberg war crimes trials: (full story)

Do you Remember? posted by kit, 2012-03-19 11:28:09

you stole my peace,
and composure
and replaced my steadfastness
with love
now i am
unsettled,
frenzied
like a crazed monkey
hooting in the night

you may have forgotten me
but i have not forgotten you,
rest easy my enduring love
once touched by this divine madness
you can never return
to the world of transitory illusion

there is no reality outside
Love
what appears as the world
is tribulation, tragedy and woe,
a mirage of the mind
a trick of fate
necessary to guide us
to love's enduring wonder
and return us safely
to our rightful place
in Paradise

The Fear of Dissent and the Road to Totalitarianism posted by frank, 2012-03-19 01:20:19
It doesn’t get much worse than indefinite detention without trial or charge and ‘legal’ assassinations of citizens on secret executive order – even mass murdering Stalin couldn’t get-away with both of those draconian impositions on his people. But American whipped-dog SLAVES lap it up and beg for more! So, not unexpectedly, the latest 'order' puppet president to the plutocrats, Obama, has signed reinforces the totalitarian direction the nation is taking. Unrestrained by law or civil government, you are now officially dispossessed, signed, Emperor of Amerika, Barack Obama! (full story and 6 comments)

Kandahar Massacre: Pentagon/Washington Caught Lying yet AGAIN! posted by staff report via stele, 2012-03-17 23:04:16
It should come as no surprise that a military organisation that exonerates murderers of women and children in Iraq -- Haditha massacre -- LIES and attempts to deceive the public with mindless and FEEBLE stories of recent massacres of women and children in Afghanistan! The Pentagon and Washington are clearly lawless, CRIMINAL organisations, plain to see! The USA remains the world's leading civilian killing, THEREFORE TERRORIST nation, in the WORLD today!

Assange to run for Oz Parliament posted by fanny, 2012-03-16 22:49:52
It seems the only qualification required to become an Oz Parliamentarian these days is how well you can suck American dick, or expressed more tactfully, how well Aussie pollies can kowtow and 'kneewalk' in Washington! (full story)
