Attack of the Cruise Missile Liberals  ---  http://www.blackagendareport.com/content/freedom-rider-attack-cruise-missile-liberals 
Special Note - A quote...."Americans are warlike – as long as they think they can be victorious. These nominal Democrats and Republicans “differ only on who they want to see doing the dominating.” Today, a Black Democrat is the head killer in charge, allowing the likes of Ed Schultz, Bill Maher and Juan Cole to endorse the criminal assault on Libya. When the chips are down, fraudulent anti-war liberals show their true racist, Manifest Destiny-loving colors. “The true anti-war movement must reawaken itself and hit the streets in the hundreds of thousands.” - also posted at AlethoNews

Kill teams in Afghanistan: the truth  ---  http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2011/mar/30/kill-team-photos-afghanistan-us 
A quote...."The disgusting and heartbreaking photos published last week in the German media, and more recently in Rolling Stone magazine, are finally bringing the grisly truth about the war in Afghanistan to a wider public. All the PR about this war being about democracy and human rights melts into thin air with the pictures of US soldiers posing with the dead and mutilated bodies of innocent Afghan civilians. -- I must report that Afghans do not believe this to be a story of a few rogue soldiers. We believe that the brutal actions of these "kill teams" reveal the aggression and racism which is part and parcel of the entire military occupation. While these photos are new, the murder of innocents is not. Such crimes have sparked many protests in Afghanistan and have sharply raised anti-American sentiment among ordinary Afghans." - also posted at ICH  ---  http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article27792.htm

In our opinion, the majority of the warning signs that hyperinflation is imminent are already here today, but most Americans are failing to properly recognize them. NIA believes that there is a serious risk of hyperinflation breaking out as soon as the second half of this calendar year and that hyperinflation is almost guaranteed to occur by the end of this decade."

Chart - A quote...."While everyone knows that the CPI in the US is manipulated beyond repair (a topic far too broad to be discussed here suffice to say that as disclosed previously true inflation in the US is currently runrating at over 8%), inflation as actually represented by US consumers and reported by Zero Hedge earlier, in the form of the 1 year inflation expectation index of the Conference Board lack of confidence index, is near all time highs. So if one takes this data series and adds to it the narrow unemployment definition (U3) one would get an adjusted Misery Index for US citizens (using inflation expectations instead of manipulated CPI). As the chart below shows, the Misery Index, which is merely inflation plus unemployment, constructed as such, would now be at an all time high."

We will not forgive the Jews for their silence; for turning Israel into a racist criminal state.
From the History File - A quote...."(VT's Special note: this essay was written soon after Israel’s War on Gaza. Israel continues its war on Gaza every day.) -- The Jewish War on Gaza and its resultant destruction of the Gaza Strip and the horrible killings of innocent women and children in cold blood and as reported in series of articles in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz and in statements made by UN officials were not surprising since Jewish soldiers are educated and trained to do that, simply kill. And so the total silence of the Jewish community around the world and especially the US Jewish community should not come as a shocking surprise but was and is expected and so their dancing in the streets of New York City as their army was leveling Gaza, destroying homes, schools, hospitals, clinics, and UN supply depot and so their successful push for a an overwhelming resolutions in both House and Senate supporting Israel’s crimes in the name of “self defense”."

They presage a world where vital resources, including food and water, jobs and security, are becoming scarcer and harder to obtain. They presage growing misery for hundreds of millions of people who find themselves trapped in failed states, suffering escalating violence and crippling poverty. They presage increasingly draconian controls and force—take a look at what is being done to Pfc.

$35 Billion 2 Year Auction Prices At 0.789%, 3.16 Bid To Cover
Chart - A quote...."Today's first of three auctions, which will total $99 billion and likely put the Treasury on the verge of breaching its debt ceiling, was an issuance of $35 billion in 2 Year paper. Coming at a high yield of 0.789% (largely expected per the When Issued), this was the highest issuance yield since April 2010, just before the market tumbled and the ground was set for QE2. The bid to cover came at 3.16, higher than last month's 3.03, but still the second lowest since September 2010. Direct bidders, after taking a break in the last auction, double their take down from 6.81% to 13.31%, relieving the Primary Dealers from some of their purchasing obligations, accounting for just 53.72% or well over half of the entire auction, which will soon be flipped right back to the Fed (keep CUSIP QL7 in mind: we are confident more than half of the PD's $18.6 billion take down will be monetized by the Fed within 3 weeks)"
