How False Human Rights Claims Create War
A quote...."The Humanitarian War is a film by Julien Teil which shows the absurdity of the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) doctrine that is now in fashion to launch colonial wars. I recommend to watch at least the first two parts. -- In the first episode we can see the leader of Amnesty International France asserting that Gaddhafi paid black mercenaries to fight the rebels attacking his state. This was of course before Gaddhafi was overthrown. After that happened, the same person was on TV trolling concern about the plight of black Libyans being chased, imprisoned and killed by the rebels based solely on "rumors" of them being mercenaries. So who, one might ask, planted those rumors if not the head of Amnesty International France?"

War Criminal Obama again threatens unlawful war with Iran: who will arrest him?
A quote...."President Obama criminally threatened to murder Iranians today with fellow War Criminal British PM Cameron. The language in their press conference included multiple lies and insults. Let’s consider the history of the US with Iran before we consider what Obama said -- The US waged unlawful war on Iran for 35 consecutive years with the overthrow of their democracy in 1953, and then supporting Iraq’s War of Aggression from 1980-1988 that war-murdered ~ one million Iranians." - also posted at GrgWashBlog

Backing into World War III?
A quote...."March 14, 2012 "Information Clearing House" ---  According to the doctrine of pre-emptive war, Iran can be attacked based on its alleged desire to develop nuclear weapons, just as Iraq was attacked in 2003. In fact, Congress is currently debating whether a nuclear capability alone (which Brazil, Japan, and other countries enjoy) could justify the 'preventive' attack. I believe it is time to negate this doctrine by postulating that Iran in fact has a right, as a sovereign nation, to a nuclear capability."

Why Putin Must Be Bold to Preserve Russia to Save the West From Its Own Banker Puppet Leaders from War
A quote...."The bankers are a threat to world peace and stability. They will not stop at nothing until they control everything. First things first to start things off. Putin needs to pull out of the United Nations and stop paying the UN dues."

Israeli Propaganda Through US MSM at Fever Pitch
A quote...."The drumbeats of war grow ever louder. Israel has successfully captured our Congress and has complete control over the corporate mainstream media message. Supposedly liberal media outlets like the NYT and MSNBC are pushing for war with Iran as hard as the neo-cons at Faux News. The lies and misinformation being spewed by politicians and media pundits is at vitriolic all time highs. The ignorant non critical thinking dupes that inhabit this country are being worked into a frenzy of fear over a two bit country that is 7,500 miles from our shores and has no means to hurt our country in any way."

That a large bipartisan cast of Washington officials got caught being paid substantial sums of money by an Iranian dissident group that is legally designated by the U.S. Government as a Terrorist organization, and then meeting with and advocating on behalf of that Terrorist group, is very significant for several reasons.

The six arrests were for people allegedly involved with Lulzsec which became known for targeting Sony, the CIA, the U.S. Senate, and FBI, as well as Visa, MasterCard, and PayPal. -- Exactly one year ago to the day of the arrests, The Guardian published an article headlined, “One in four US hackers 'is an FBI informer.'” The article described how the FBI had used the threat of long sentences to turn some members of Anonymous and similar groups into informants.  It also described how the group was open to infiltration."

When a Congressman Becomes a Lobbyist, He Gets a 1,452% Raise (on Average) - Crime pays. - mpg
A quote...."Selling out pays. If you’re a corporation or lobbyist, what’s the best way to “buy” a member of Congress? Secretly promise them a million dollars or more in pay if they come to work for you after they leave office. Once a public official makes a deal to go to work for a lobbying firm or corporation after leaving office, he or she becomes loyal to the future employer. And since those deals are done in secret, legislators are largely free to pass laws, special tax cuts, or earmarks that benefit their future employer with little or no accountability to the public. While campaign contributions and super PACS are a big problem, the every day bribery of the revolving door may be the most pernicious form of corruption today.

The Money Masters - Full
Must View Video - (previously posted) - (YuTb - 3hr29min19sec - Jan 3, 2011) - Source:  DrDissent -- A quote...."THE MONEY MASTERS is a historical documentary that traces the origins of the political power structure. The modern political power structure has its roots in the hidden manipulation and accumulation of gold and other forms of money. The development of fractional reserve banking practices in the 17th century brought to a cunning sophistication the secret techniques initially used by goldsmiths fraudulently to accumulate wealth. With the formation of the privately-owned Bank of England in 1694, the yoke of economic slavery to a privately-owned "central" bank was first forced upon the backs of an entire nation, not removed but only made heavier with the passing of the three centuries to our day. Nation after nation has fallen prey to this cabal of international central bankers. -- If you like this film, please share it with a friend and support the makers by purchasing a full quality DVD here."

Here Is Why The Fed Will Have To Do At Least Another $3.6 Trillion In Quantitative Easing
Charts - A quote...."As we have repeatedly said in the past, the quarterly Flow of Funds (or Z.1) statement is most interesting not for the already public household net worth and leverage data which serves to make pretty charts and largely irrelevant articles, but due to its insight into the stock and flow of both the traditional financial system but far more importantly - into shadow banking. And this is where things get hairy. Because while equities may have returned to 2008 valuations, the credit shortfall across combined US liabilities - traditional and shadow - still has a $3.6 trillion hole to plug to get to the level from March 2008 (see first chart).

11 Reasons Why America Would Be A Better Place Without Goldman Sachs

American Massacres Have Been Common for Centuries
A quote...."For hundreds of years Americans have been committing massacres of women and children, old men and sometimes even young men, mostly unarmed or armed only with primitive weapons. The early massacres were mostly of Indians who refused to leave their lands when Americans decided it was God's will that they steal those lands for nothing or for a few trinkets. In the Civil War Sherman and Grant routinely massacred Southern civilian populations with bombardments of cities, burning homes and Atlanta [though I do not know death figures], and so on. The introduction of automatic weapons led quickly to far more massive U.S. massacres, obviously in the Philippines where freedom fighters were using primitive weapons to try to gain freedom from the U.S. Empire. The U.S. gunned down tens of thousands of the Philippine sons of liberty and piled them in mass graves...." - also posted at AlethoNews

The deal confirmed Greece’s profound financial and political dependency on Berlin and the ECB, which ensures that even if the current discredited cabinet, or a similar successor, achieves a primary budget surplus, it may not be able to declare bankruptcy because the new bonds will be subject to English jurisdiction. Let us tackle each of these issues in turn."

Will A Sitting President Finally Be Held Accountable For High Crimes and Misdemeanors?
Most probably not. This is most likely an election stunt. As has been pointed out by many bloggers there already is a law on the books that requires the president to get Congressional approval for "war"....it's called the Constitution of the United States.

On the other hand some from the Repub half (and even some from the Demo half) of the Imperial Demo-Repub Party, although completely in agreement with endless wars across the planet and the murdering of millions of innocents, especially if it's done on behalf of the AIPAC/Israeli Consortium, take deep exception to having their authority to carry out mass-genocide to steal other people's resources flouted, or more importantly....publicly belittled.

It causes their bribes....'scuse this website editor....their campaign contributions, from the AIPAC/Israeli Consortium, the Bankster Complex and the Military Industrial Complex to decline.  So there is a slight chance Obama might be sanctioned with a fig-leaf of a bill, for Leon Panetta's public effrontery. - mpg

She and her masters know full well that they are carrying out destabilization operations in the 3rd world so population can be reduced and resources stolen. We need to call a spade a spade, this is part of a new branding rollout to launch a AFRICOM take over of Africa. This constitutes a crime against humanity and Jolie is a party to it and needs to be arrested along with other globalist that are using left cover to widen globalist empire. The problem is you can't go to the UN because it is at the center of the corporate global government takeover, the people are asleep and wars are being launched against innocents in the name of a bleeding heat liberal agenda. THEY COME IN PEACE!"

Normally this website editor doesn't post vitriolic personal attacks against individuals, especially those in the entertainment industry.  This is an exception.

There are now tens of thousands of dead in Libya, many who died under a rain of NATO bombs which included the use of depleted uranium and possibly DIME munitions.  As of October 20th 2011, when NATO was considering ceasing air operations, they had conducted ...


To put these statistics into perspective, Libya's population is roughly six million, the US-NRE's is 320 million  If it was the US-NRE receiving these "kinetic love bombs", we would have been subjected to 512,960 strike sorties. [320/6=53.33] [53.33*9,618=512,960].

This campaign of conquest was planned as far back as 2007. Arming and training of the "rebels" began six months to a year before March of 2011 when hostilities basically began. During the initial outbreak of hostilities the "rebels" established a new private central bank and oil company to do "business" with their "sponsors".  To quote one observer of the situation....


Libya's infrastructure has been devastated, the $125 billion in assets "frozen" by the allied powers has still NOT been returned yet, the billion dollars stolen from Libya's sovereign wealth fund by Goldman Sachs has not been recovered, Libya's gold is missing, it is about to be fractured into three separate states, al-CIA'da is flying their flag over Benghazi's downtown, torture, murder, and vengeance killings are continuing across the length and breadth of Libya including a campaign of ethnic cleansing against black Africans which resulted in the emptying the entire city of Tawergha.

The British openly gloated that their "costs" for the Libyan campaign were cheap next to the expected windfall of upwards of $350 billion dollars they anticipated receiving in Libyan contracts. 

All of this mayhem and murder is fully consistent with the PNAC Protocols and constitutes by anyone's reasonable definition as a "war of aggression" which is the "supreme crime" against the international community of nations states.


Angelina Jolie's open advocacy of aggressive war against innocent civilian populations in Libya and Syria is utterly unacceptable.  Orwellian language used to mask anyone's advocacy of such murderous enterprises is utterly unacceptable and unbelievable. She is responsible for what she says and what she advocates and should be called out for what she's done and what has been done in her name as would be any of the rancorous detestable Neocons and their fellow travelers.

This website editor was shocked by this information, and used to be a fan, although not anymore.  This website editor will never rent, pay for, or watch any movie she appears in....ever again.

Too many people are dead because of these policies, too many people have been tortured or maimed or impoverished because of these policies, too many people in this country have compromised their values on behalf of these policies....enough is enough. - mpg

As a wire service report observed at the time, that ruling effectively nullified the core protections contained in the Fourth Amendment and the equivalent provision in the Indiana constitution, as well as protections and immunities recognized by "common law dating back to the English Magna Carta of 1215." The 3–2 decision last May 12 held that Indiana residents have no right to obstruct unlawful police incursions into their homes."

CNN Fake Newscast Best Quality

"Charles Jaco was the CNN reporter famous for covering the 1990 Persian Gulf War. -- The first part of this video shows the stage set he was on, and he was clowning around with fellow CNN staff. The Saudi Arabian "hotel" in the background were fake palm trees and a blue wall in a studio. This clip was leaked by CNN staff. -- The second part of this video was a live CNN satellite feed recorded onto VHS showing the final cut. Charles Jaco was wearing a different jacket, but he had the same act. The acting was terrible as Charles Jaco wore a gas mask, and his fellow correspondent Carl Rochelle wore a helmet. The sirens and missile sound effects are part of the stage set. The camera never pans out or shows the sky."

America Is Being Transformed From A Wealthy Nation Into A Poor Nation At Breathtaking Speed
Charts - A quote...."Right now, the United States is bleeding wealth at a pace that is almost unimaginable.  Every single month, tens of billions of dollars of wealth is permanently transferred from the American people to the rest of the world.  That means that the overall economic pie is shrinking.  While the rich and the poor are busy fighting over the distribution of wealth in this country, the size of the pie that they are dividing up is continually getting smaller.  America is poorer than it was last month, and next month it will be even poorer.  If this continues, it will result in a complete and total economic nightmare."

Propaganda Exposed - (regarding Syria) -- A quote...."Prison Planet’s Paul Joseph Watson details CNN’s recent PR defensive in his recent article, including repeated tacit admissions by a visibly uncomfortable Dayem, back pedalling in a vigorous effort to cover his own tracks after the leaked out-takes of these synthetic news reports were aired via a recent exposé on Syrian state television. -- Ironic that Anderson Cooper’s CNN program is entitled “360″, as the the spin employed in their Syria coverage is nearly disorienting. As Dayem’s on-camera US media handler, Cooper himself is no stranger to the world of spooks, spies and media psy-ops, serving within the CIA from a young age. In terms of a well-documented CIA media operation like Operation Mockingbird, a trusted news celebrity like Cooper would be  considered a prize asset in the agency’s agenda to influence US domestic and western foreign opinion for the purposes of winning acceptance of a said Washington foreign policy objective."

Iran: Israel’s Concocted World Threat
Propaganda Exposed - A quote...."For the past several years, some would go back much farther and even say decades, Israel has orchestrated an ambitious, multi-layered campaign that included diplomatic and intelligence operations along with exploitation of American Jewish pro-Israel “agents of influence” (more on that below) designed to gin up an atmosphere conducive to war.  This was the subject of the secret documents I read, provided to me by Shamai Leibowitz, which showed Israeli diplomats ghostwriting anti-Iran op-eds for U.S. newspapers (see below), then Sen. Sam Brownback reporting to Israeli diplomats on an anti-Iran conference he was organizing (here is further evidence of Brownback’s continuing shilling against Iran), a Texas Congressman meeting with a local Jewish donor and Israeli diplomat, to whom the politician reported on Congressional developments that would further isolate Iran, and a senior Senate foreign relations committee staffer being briefed by senior Israel military-intelligence figures eager to warn him about Iran’s alleged nuclear weapons program." - Related ||  Media Consolidation - The Illusion of Choice  ||

McClatchy On Israel's Nuclear Iran Scare Campaign
Propaganda Exposed - A quote...."McClatchy has a great three part series by Sheera Frenkel on Israel and its nuclear Iran scare campaign. There are at least three major points to take away from it:

• The systematic campaign to incite war on Iran started, more or less secretly, immediately after Iraq was defeated in the first Gulf war.
• When in 2006 the U.S. was on the verge of defeat in Iraq the anti-Iran campaign was turned into a public one.
• Israel's plans are political, not military. Israel will not attack Iran but wants the U.S. to do the job.

"But the piece is missing the strategic points why the nuclear issue is played up at all...."

Evolving Global Financial Crisis. Selling "Foreclosed Homes"
A quote...."The government is preparing to package and sell foreclosed homes. We do not know what discount to the current market there will be but you can guess it will be 20% or more. This event will cause home prices to trend lower dependent on whether the houses are put up for sale or rented. These homes will only be available to big buyers such as hedge funds and others with enormous amounts of capital. It is expected that the homes will be sold in lots of 5,000 to 10,000 and the minimum bid would be $1 billion. This is corporatist fascists busy at work. You could call it the largest transfer of wealth from the private to the public sector in history."

No Jobs For Americans

Is the government’s claim true? -- No. --  Statistician John Williams (shadowstats.com) reports that 44,000 of these jobs or 19% consist of an add-on factor derived from the BLS’s estimate that 44,000 more unreported jobs from new business start-ups were created than were lost by unreported business failures.

Sure this is going to be a huge benefit to the Greek people. Sure the triggering of CDS’ in no threat to financial institutions and sure overall payouts will be around the $3.2B in net outstanding CDS contracts linked to Greece. And sure the exact level of payouts will be determined on March 19. I am sure not one of these sureties is accurate."

The Greek Agony
A quote...."In his novel 1984, George Orwell coined the term “Newspeak” for an ideologically charged language that stands reality on its head. The word “haircut” as applied to the write-down of Greek government debt should be added to the vocabulary of Newspeak. - What is publicly presented as the financial markets’ “sacrifice,” a “waiver” by private creditors, giving up over half of the value of their Greek bonds, is in fact a financial gift to the banks."

Luckily, following the latest economic (yes, we laughed too) update from Greece, it is safe to say that things are back to normal, as Greek youth unemployment is officially the second one in Europe after Spain to surpass 50%.

One month after the pro-democracy protests began, Bahrainis faced a brutal military crackdown, when Saudi-led Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) troops entered the country to quell the Bahraini uprising. Basically, Saudi Arabia did to Bahrain what it couldn’t do to Egypt: intervene directly to save a long-standing ally. One year after the uprising, Bahraini activists on the ground are calling for greater solidarity from their Egyptian counterparts in the battle against military brutality." - also posted at ICH

No Apocalypse Yet
Special Note - A quote...."March 10, 2012 "Information Clearing House" --- "Moscow" -- The anticipated apocalypse did not come to pass. The presidential election in Russia ran its course, Putin was duly elected, and to the great astonishment of the opposition, multimillion crowds demanding the blood of the tyrant did not materialize. Only some 15,000 protesters gathered in central Moscow and dispersed peacefully within two hours. Only a remaining hundred hardcore activists were resolved “to stay until Putin goes” in the frozen city fountain. They were removed by police, charged and released. What a flop!" - also posted at CounterPunch

Laws vs. Color Revolutions in Latin America
A quote...."The US intelligence [Now THERE'S an oxymoron for you...mpg] is making systematic efforts to energize the political opposition in Latin American countries deemed unfriendly in Washington. The strategy encompasses the radicalization of the existing political parties and groups plus the creation of new ones pursuing ever more aggressive agendas, and the formation of a network of seemingly harmless NGOs ready to launch massive attacks against the regimes in their respective countries whenever their sponsors and curators chose to unleash them. It is a reality that newspapers and electronic media in Ecuador, Bolivia, Nicaragua, and Venezuela shower their audiences with allegations that the ruling populists are completely unable to tackle the problems of corruption and drug-related crime or to modernize the economies of the countries where they are at the helm."

Don't be fooled by Kony 2012, it's Tony 2012 we need to get our own war criminal Blair
A quote...."The ‘Kony 2012’ campaign is calling for more military intervention into Africa and follows US President Barack Obama’s decision last October to deploy 100 troops to Uganda with the aim of “removing” Joseph Kony from the picture. -- As Jody McIntyre has rightly pointed out: “It is clear that the United States of America are intent on re-colonising Africa, directly and militarily, and the ‘Kony 2012’ video is a cleverly produced piece of propaganda to further this aim.”"

The Kony 2012 Campaign Is Fraud And Its Cause Is A Difficult Problem
A quote...."There is a stupid campaign in the asocial media to go after Joseph Kony and his Lord's Resistance Army in Uganda. First thing wrong with that is that he isn't in Uganda and hasn't been for some six year. -- I regard the campaign as total fraud which has only one real aim which is to enrich its initiators. The charity that runs the campaign, Invisible Children, uses 70% of the money it gets for administration and marketing. As it is not even audited the number that really goes to the cause may be far less than 30%. -- But there are lots of other issues with this and other such campaigns and by now a lot of smart people have written about those (see links below)."

Friday March 9th 2012

Keep in mind folks, there are about six million Jews living in the United States, a little over 2% of this nation's 320 million people, with close to seven million living in Israel.  Yet TWO THIRDS of "our" Congress pilgrimages every year to AIPAC and Israel to show their obedience.  Just think about it. These two thirds DO NOT represent YOU!  They do not work for YOU!  So why do YOU keep voting for them? - mpg

The United States Bill of Rights is STILL in affect, it has not, and CAN NOT, be repealed by the legislature, executive or judicial branch!!  It can ONLY be changed or altered by a constitutional convention.  Those sections of the NDAA / bill S-1867 that try to undo the Bill of Rights are illegal, unconstitutional and unenforceable on their face.  The language and intent of the offending sections in the bill DIRECTLY CONTRADICTS the Constitution and the Bill of Rights of the United States of America.  --  They are therefore null & void. -- The representatives who voted for this bill have violated their oath of office.  Any person who supports or tries to enforce the illegal sections in this bill is a terrorist and a criminal and should be subject to severe criminal and civil penalties. - mpg - posted 01-03-12

This is an utterly unconstitutional statement regarding the powers of the legislative branch, by an officer of the executive branch, who took an oath to uphold and defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic!  As such it is an impeachable offense.

If Panetta slyly meant Israel, a nation directly implicated in the events of 9/11, when he stated the administration's goal was "international permission" for war, he is "adhering to their [the united states - plural] enemies" and thereby "giving them aid and comfort", and as such he, along with members of this administration, are violating article three, section three of the United States constitution. - mpg
