 HOW TO Subjugate American Youth posted by Bruce E. Levine via reed, 2011-08-04 01:18:23
Elites learned their tricks in the 50's and 60's, decades known for anti-establishment activity and rebellion. Never again would minority ruling elites allow their media to foment protests and tell the TRUTH/story as it is! Two primary methods of social control were implemented after the massive protest movements of the 60's -- DEBT SLAVERY and media 'PERCEPTION MANAGEMENT' or propaganda to use the traditional term.

US Corporate Profits surge, as [our] Economy slows posted by Alexander Osipovich via fleet, 2011-08-02 09:51:39
Yes, Jethro, there really are 2 economies -- one booming economy for Bankers and Corporatists and the other stagnating economy for the shit-eating public! Today's 'Economy' now emulates the Legal/Judicial system; the rich and powerful rarely face justice while teenage pot smokers and citizens on misdemeanour charges could end up with 20 year jail sentences!

  The Reality behind Debt Ceiling Theatrics posted by sam, 2011-08-01 11:25:51
America prints and controls the flow of the world’s reserve currency, the greenback. Until such time as another world currency, or weighted ‘unit’ from 5 leading nations, replaces the greenback as reserve, America is able to play economic God or vandal with the rest of the WORLD. How foolish the international community is for allowing any single nation to control the global economy in this way. (full story and 3 comments)

 Ecstatic Poetry posted by Mirabai via Zi, 2011-07-31 02:48:07
All mystic poets regardless of culture, time or gender deliver the same message and speak the same timeless, universal 'language.'
I have rendered two of Mirabai's poems into English. I hope the Hindu metaphors are not lost on Western readers, enjoy! (full story and 1 comments)

The Mega-Rich posted by lou, 2011-07-30 11:21:20
Money is seldom lost, it is usually funnelled.
If you ever wondered where all the money goes while nations are failing, look to the manipulators that produce nothing substantial but juggle, shuffle, trick and manipulate. The result is the obscenely rich and opulent plutocracy and elite insiders. (full story and 1 comments)

Gaddafi is stronger than ever despite the US/NATO Criminal Bombing Campaign posted by Richard Seymour via petra, 2011-07-30 00:57:35
The North Atlantic Terrorist Organisation (NATO) is facing the REALITY that the MAJORITY of Libyans cannot be bombed into submission and economic slavery.
Since the Balkan travesty, it seems the WORLD has learned that UN sanctioned Wars of 'humanitarian intervention' and spreading 'Democracy' are in REALITY Corporatist and Banking wars of mass murder, plunder, territorial acquisition and resource appropriation -- PLAIN to SEE TODAY! (full story)

Libya: Reality on the Ground vs Western Media Fiction posted by Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya via gan, 2011-07-29 00:38:23
The North Atlantic Terrorist Organisation (NATO) has failed in its bid to Balkanise Libya. The Libyan people are acutely aware that the West is laying siege on their Sovereign nation in order to subdue/economically enslave the people and plunder the nation's valuable resources. After months of bombing a civilian city and numerous illegal failed assassination attempts on Gaddafi's life, the 'humanitarian intervention' is now clearly seen to be the SHAM that it is.

Goldman Sachs, joint planners of the Carbon PENALTY economy with other large Financial institutions and mega energy Corporations, has wilfully facilitated the financial takeover of Greece by large Banking and Financial concerns -- Greece has clearly been sold into economic slavery! (full story)

 Democracy Betrayed posted by zed, 2011-07-26 11:23:52
If we, the democratic majority, condone or allow elected representatives to renege or back-peddle on promises then we must accept the responsibility for the failure of democracy. Democracy demands that the will of the majority is uncompromisingly served, no ‘ifs or buts!’ Everyone is able to comprehend the simple principles embodied in the Democratic ideal.

 ‘Extreme Nationalist’ – the New Bogeyman posted by kent, 2011-07-24 03:45:41
In the wake of the recent massacres in Norway, which killed over ninety citizens, the world was surprised to learn that the killer was NOT a bearded Jihadist – such is the power of mass media saturation over an extended period. The lunatic in this instance was a Norwegian local with a right wing Christian fundamentalist background. What is interesting to note however, are the numerous instances of media racial profiling; the killer is universally described as blonde, six feet tall, blue eyes etc, emphasising that extremists are not necessarily swarthy or dark featured 'foreigners.' The media seems less concerned with the fact that lunacy knows no racial boundaries than it is with highlighting the home grown terrorist factor! Or could the almost uniform media accounts of this tragedy be hiding another Iraq style WMD LIE and new 'terrorist' bogeyman creation? (full story and 2 comments)

More Healing Wisdom from the East posted by Lakshmi Gopal via sadh, 2011-07-23 00:13:00
When we view the REALITY NATO and the US have given the World over the past decade, the character of this marauding evil becomes clear, no assistance required to determine the ugliness and homicidal EVIL . Yet WE subscribe, either by passive acceptance, DENIAL or COMPLACENCY! Choose well the REALITY and WORLD in which you would either live happily or die/suffer miserably. Withdraw your active and passive support from the evil American Empire and reject its poisonous ideology of inequality, death, greed, permanent war and destruction. (full story)
