WikiLeaks Diplomatic Disclosures -- Open Article to the Ruling Elite posted by nano-thermite, 2010-11-28 21:28:41
To all Corporatists, and parasitic elite cabals, it is OVER, you are already DEAD, you just haven’t hit the ground yet. The smartest among you have already made arrangements to disappear but I’m afraid it's far too late; in any case you really have nowhere to go and no real choice in the matter, do you? (full story)

US State Dept Threatens WikiLeaks/Assange posted by bluey, 2010-11-27 23:53:26
I need not spend too much time on the absurdity of the US State Department’s threatening letter (pdf below) to Julian Assange of WikiLeaks, as it is simply another foray down Alice’s ridiculous, illogical rabbit hole. The inversions of logic and reason the world is expected to accept are beyond even Alice’s relaxed tolerance as a witness to the ABSURD! (full story)

Alerted by warnings from the major manufacturers -- Apple, in an attempt to lessen the future impact of litigation, now issues a warning that the iPhone should be held at least 8 inches from the body when texting or conversing!

Perforating Media Propaganda posted by stan, 2010-10-23 19:39:49
Sustaining and promulgating LIES is a very tiresome, expensive, involved and cumbersome business for the Corporate media; but exposing mindless spin, obfuscations and subterfuges is as simple as asking the OBVIOUS question: what would YOU do if a foreign power invaded your homeland killed family members (innocent civilians) and attempted to appropriate your nation’s resource wealth? Two answers immediately present themselves, FIGHT to restore your nation’s sovereignty or COWER and accept slavery under foreign rule – what is YOUR answer? (full story and 1 comments)

The Global Crisis, The Role and Meaning of Art in Society posted by Caoimhghin Ó Croidheáin via gan, 2010-10-17 18:27:38
As the current world economic crisis deepens, the role and meaning of art in society changes as more and more people are dragged down by the weight of personal debt, unemployment and poverty. Galleries close and less people can afford to buy art creating a new awareness among artists of the fragility of the art market and the economic system behind it that creates an increasingly alienated and elitist exclusivism.

BOYCOTT Murdoch’s News Ltd posted by bluey, 2010-10-16 22:28:10
People often ask what they can do to stop the current social malaise being spread by the likes of scoundrels like Aussie Rupert Murdoch and his ilk in the Council for Foreign Relations. Murdoch’s Fox ‘news’ has become the most extreme example of a hate medium that exits today. It flagrantly promotes violence, social division and by implication, mass murder and homicide – we easily recall its primary role in promoting the illegal invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan -- and the civilian holocaust that followed. Put simply, Rupert Murdoch is a war criminal on par if not worse than the infamous Nazi propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels! (full story and 1 comments)

WikiLeaks' Biggest Document Dump Yet Coming Monday posted by David Knowles via Kismo, 2010-10-16 19:24:16
Firstly, it should be noted by those unfamiliar with Oz culture that true Australians have an ACUTE sense of FAIR PLAY and JUSTICE -- those cultural characteristics stem from our cruel penal colony past and the need to cooperate in order to survive harsh conditions and overcome the odds.

Exposing heinous criminals, liars and mass murderers is par for the course; we salute Mr Julian Assange and his international team. May all of Washington DC, Wall St, the Pentagon and their servile allies choke on the TRUTH -- and may all the people of the world awaken to the FACT they are LIONS raised as sheep! Ed.

The Fear Trade and Disinfo Business posted by stele, 2010-10-11 22:13:03
It started in a concerted fashion with the first media (military) campaigns of ancient Roman Emperors but probably had its inception some time before that with Alexander the (narcissistic) not so great, adopting Divine status after conquering Egypt. However, we are concerned with today’s lies and propaganda not with its inglorious history/past. (full story)

Obama -- Bullshit Terror Alert Exposed posted by Simon Tisdall, Richard Norton-Taylor via gan, 2010-10-07 21:14:04
Is anyone surprised? Fake leader, fake alert! Western 'democracies' have been hijacked by Corporatists! What that (simply) means is that all Western politicians are PUPPETS serving the interests of those that placed them in 'Office' -- note I did not use the word Power, as the POWER remains with the people, never forget it!
