  Robert Gates: maintain occupation of all invaded territories posted by stan, 2011-06-09 23:26:03
US career politician, Robert Gates, dutifully lectured NATO defence chiefs recently on the need to maintain occupying forces in invaded territories and NOT to withdraw THEIR troops when the US begins to reduce its forces in Afghanistan. Gates cited the threat of ‘instability’ (which invasion and foreign occupation creates) and the likely loss of the precarious ‘gains’ made by occupying forces as causes for concern.

 Obama’s unilaterally declared Libyan war Illegal posted by jango, 2011-06-07 21:20:14
The above FLAGRANT illegality notwithstanding, consider the fact that America, the WORLD’S leading civilian killing nation, pretends to fight a war to protect civilians in Libya. (full story)

“No Shred of Evidence” – Iraq PROVES that fiction/Fantasy usurps truth/Reality posted by stan, 2011-06-03 00:13:27
Just as former UN weapons inspectors, notably Hans Blix and Richard Butler, CORRECTLY asserted that Iraq had NO weapons of mass destruction PRIOR to the Bush, Blair and Howard ILLEGAL invasion, former Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Mohamed ElBaradei, asserts there is “no shred of evidence” to indicate that Iran is building nuclear weapons! However, now, as before, we certainly cannot permit the TRUTH, much less REALITY, to interfere with America’s LYING mass media propaganda machine and the push for WORLD domination via destabilisation, permanent war and DECEPTION, God forbid!

 Armed vs Unarmed Resistance posted by nano, 2011-06-01 00:51:02
When neo-cons were drafting the Project for the New American Century (PNAC) or world hegemony by any other name, criminal neo-con corporate facilitators confronted the problem of State sovereignty, International Law and human rights – THEIR ‘solution,’ as the world is NOW aware, was to ignore or corrupt International Legal Institutions, disregard State Sovereignty and completely ignore the rights/lives of innocent civilians, as the horrendous civilian death toll, which now ranges in the millions, clearly indicates. From the start it became apparent that the free world was dealing with a new, State CRIMINAL force! (full story and 1 comments)

‘Humanitarian intervention’ becomes full-scale illegal war in Libya posted by stan, 2011-05-20 09:33:55
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!

Orwell Wrote the Script posted by styx, 2011-05-10 22:20:20
In Orwell’s 1984 prophecy, Big Brother government rules over unquestioning people, incapable of independent thought, who are constantly spied on.
In 1949 there was no Internet, Facebook, Twitter, GPS, etc. Big Brother’s spying was done through cameras and microphones in public areas, as in England today, and via television equipped with surveillance devices in homes. The majority succumbed to thought manipulation -- 'perception management' -- and followed government presentations of 'reality!' (full story)

 'Hollywood' Osama Bin Laden’s body taken off ice today posted by stylus, 2011-05-01 21:36:00
President of nothing, Baa’rack Obaa’maa, is about to belatedly announce the death of ‘Hollywood Bin Laden,’ (HBL) who served the Bush presidency and the Corporatist agenda well – the man definitely deserves the highest honour the criminal United States can bestow! Without HBL the USA would not have been able to create the oppressed, socially locked down, permanently warring world we live in today – we know how much you ‘enjoy’ having your genitals groped at airports and your personal communications intercepted and trawled by the NSA, CIA and Google!

NOT Gaddafi, NATO committing War Crimes! posted by staff report, 2011-05-01 01:21:41
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi survived a NATO air strike on a Tripoli house that killed his youngest son and three grandchildren, a government spokesman said on Sunday. Libyan officials took journalists to the house, which had been hit by at least three missiles. The roof had completely caved in leaving mangled rods of reinforcing steel hanging down among splintered chunks of concrete. (full story and 1 comments)

 Pakistanis Rally Against [criminal] US Drone Strikes posted by Aizaz Mohmand via jalal, 2011-04-25 12:30:59
Outraged Pakistanis are finally expressing opposition to the civilian killing US Drone campaign in the NW Frontier region of Pakistan. After numerous missile strikes against women, children and village leaders, the long suffering people of Pakistan have had enough of American MURDER portrayed in the Western media as legitimate warfare.
Injustice has turned to rage in many regions of the world, common PEOPLE in Muslim nations are aware that the US has no mandate from any organisation on the planet to MURDER CIVILIANS -- which it does almost daily with its imprecise, cowardly Drone weaponry. (full story)

US atrocities reach all time high in Afghanistan posted by Zia Sarhadi via dasha, 2011-04-24 10:10:23
The USA national debt is over fourteen (14) trillion dollars and counting. If you wonder where the money to fight America's criminal wars comes from just ask Ben Bernanke of the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank and he'll euphemistically inform you that he prints it on demand from thin air -- nice trick Banksters!.
Until such time as China and Russia dump their dollar reserves in one giant unified action, they too indirectly support all America's criminal wars. The list grows from the Balkans through to Libya due to dollar support. Is there a better way to ensure world supremacy than by blackmailing (or corrupting) nations to trade in dollars while maintaining the unique ability to print as many as you wish? If YOU want peace then refuse to trade or deal in US dollars -- that simple! (full story)
