Consider the material very carefully and resist the urge to dismiss, refute or denounce. The subheading is as accurate as anything ever written, indeed it is UNDERSTATEMENT! (full story and 3 comments)

China’s Rise, America’s Fall posted by Ron Unz via stan, 2012-04-20 10:16:48
The rise of China surely ranks among the most important world developments of the last 100 years. With America still trapped in its fifth year of economic hardship, and the Chinese economy poised to surpass our own before the end of this decade, China looms very large on the horizon. We are living in the early years of what journalists once dubbed “The Pacific Century,” yet there are worrisome signs it may instead become known as “The Chinese Century.” (full story)

Obama the Dunce and the Afghan 'Train Wreck' posted by Conn Hallinan via stele, 2012-04-18 23:08:52
AGAIN, the MYTH of 'superpower' has been shattered but this time by a rag tag group of dedicated fighters with minimal arms and technology. Regardless of all the zillions of dollars and high tech weaponry of the invaders, Afghanistan is an utter FAILURE, as was Vietnam! PROVING that a population that opposes and RESISTS invaders ALWAYS prevails. Are you reading this you gutless Iraqi Arabs and tragic, once fighting, Serbs -- take back YOUR nations? (full story)

Megaupload Preparing Multi-Billion Dollar IPO Before Bust posted by torrentfreak via rapido, 2012-04-17 10:47:44
INDEPENDENT IT entrepreneurs and armies of anonymous hackers present as the only effective force battling against ruling Wall St Banking and Corporate elites that murder (Gaddafi gold oil trading) or paralyse (Assange compromising government) anyone that poses a threat to their wealth or power. The very untimely, 'illegal' raid on Kim Dotcom, as will become apparent as the case proceeds, reeks of a conspiracy to destroy an independent operator who is known to be contemptuous of the current status quo.

Carbon Tax -- note the Jewish Goldman Sachs figure The Oz Carbon Tax/Crucifixion -- the REAL Cost posted by dasha, 2012-04-14 21:23:52
After reading the following report, based on conservative estimates, the question that should be asked is WHO designed this outrageous Tax? We know Corporate lackey, Juliar Gillard isn't capable of independent thought, she was pushed into power because Rudd began to oppose the powers. So who is behind this unnecessary, crucifying TAX BURDEN, which will INCREASE the cost of EVERYTHING? (full story and 1 comments)

Civilian killng US Marines polluting our soil Welcome to the Occupation - US Troops arrive in Darwin, Australia posted by bluey, 2012-04-04 11:13:05
The first stage of Gillard's TREASONOUS acquiescence to Washington has been realised today with the arrival in Darwin of the first contingent of PERMANENT US troops of occupation to be stationed on OUR sacred and SOVEREIGN SOIL.

After granting war mongering, civilian killing, America FIVE full scale (nuclear armed) military bases from which they hope to threaten and contain China, Gillard's life is not worth a red cent. Gillard has just made Oz a primary nuclear target and has jeopardised our relationship with our largest trading partner. But she has served her purpose though she is the most unrepresentative, reviled PM in Oz history; Gillard dutifully imposed a Carbon Tax for Goldman Sachs and other Banking interests and has "enthusiastically" sacrificed Australian security for her Washington masters.

Nothing is 'Too Big To Fail' - Reserve Banker calls for Reform posted by stan, 2012-04-01 00:38:26
The recently released annual report (below) of the Dallas Reserve Bank calls for the dismantling of the ‘Too Big To Fail’ Banks and other TBTF (financial) institutions! If I hadn’t read the report myself I wouldn’t have believed it. However, I was not born yesterday and neither was the now very cynical population which ranks banks together with criminal organisations and likens Banksters to organised crime bosses.

Accurate News – The War is Lost! posted by gire, 2012-03-30 22:48:25
There are many wars and fronts raging today, even as I write; but few are given accurate coverage by the Corporate media for obvious reasons. The title refers to a war that ruling financial elites and plutocrats lost decades ago; principally due to the avaricious fact that ruling elites were too busy feeding at the trough of their ill-gotten gains to notice they had been completely out-manoeuvred, ‘surrounded’ and strategically defeated.

'Paper Gold,' Illusory Money and Political Deception posted by sy, 2012-03-25 22:35:59
Much like the recent State elections in Queensland Australia, where the incumbent Labor Party was thoroughly thrashed 78 seats to 6, final figures yet to be released, the Bankster money monopoly game plays the same course. (full story)

Cameron and Obama -- note the juxtaposed subordination of Cameron Puppet Clowns, Cameron and Obama -- "making progress!" [LOL!] posted by baz, 2012-03-15 02:14:19
How many years has the USA and its puppet allies been "making progress" in Afghanistan and avoiding international war crimes courts? Take a wild guess then look at the language of the following report especially the oft repeated but UNDEFINED "mission" word. History dictates that America's 'mission' is criminal invasion, occupation, assassination, regime change, plunder and the mass murder of civilians; any dreamboat that thinks otherwise, after a DECADE of lost wars and recorded heinous crimes, is SORELY DELUDED!

Lackey idiot, Juliar Gillard! Afghan Slaughter: Gillard Quick to Reassure her Washington Overlords posted by suzie, 2012-03-11 21:17:12
Washington doormat Juliar 'Carbon Sachs' Gillard -- soon to be former PM of Oz -- was quick to reassure her American masters that SHE is committed to HER mission in Afghanistan; perhaps she should ELABORATE or try to justify the presence of brave Aussie troops fighting filthy, illegal, civilian killing, AMERICAN wars for PROFIT in Afghanistan!

Stratfor emails reveal Regime Change and NATO/US takeover Agenda for Syria posted by Finian Cunningham via keir, 2012-03-08 06:17:47
The Western governments' and mainstream media’s narrative of a one-sided humanitarian crisis in Syria is rapidly unwinding to reveal a self-serving deception to justify a re-run of Libya-style NATO conquest. In reality, it is the Western powers and their Israeli and Arab henchmen who are fuelling a humanitarian crisis and creating the conditions for all-out war. All of which, it should be said, constitutes criminality comparable to Nazi Germany’s wars of aggression. (full story)

NATO/US Appointed Puppet Libyan Leader Vows to Use Force on Breakaway Regions posted by Chris Stephen via weaver, 2012-03-07 07:55:10
After US/NATO backed rebel forces desecrated WWII graves in Libya, demonstrating to the WORLD that NATO appointed puppet Libyan leader, Islamist, Mustafa Abdul Jalil, has no control over the country whatsoever, today's 'damage control announcement' that force would be used to prevent regions declaring autonomy is simply a prelude to a new DICTATORSHIP but with NATO and the US behind it! At least Gaddafi ruled a unified nation in peace -- now watch and learn the true nature of NATO and US interventions and the implementation of proxy dictatorships in Libya and in other conquered States and territories.

China: Rise, Fall and Re-Emergence as a Global Power posted by Prof. James Petras via reed, 2012-03-07 06:29:07
The study of world power has been blighted by Eurocentric historians who have distorted and ignored the dominant role China played in the world economy between 1100 and 1800. John Hobson’s[1] brilliant historical survey of the world economy during this period provides an abundance of empirical data making the case for China ’s economic and technological superiority over Western civilization for the better part of a millennium prior to its conquest and decline in the 19th century.
