“My attitude toward all officialdom and government authority is unchanged: they make me gnash my teeth.” – German-Swiss poet Hermann Hesse (Reflections: pg. 21).

(Excavator) – In an interview with the website Human Events, former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld warned that if the Pentagon budget is cut to address the deficit problem then America will be attacked again. Rumsfeld said:

“The Department of Defense is not what’s causing the debt and the deficit. It’s the entitlement programs. If we make that mistake, we’re doomed to suffer another attack of some kind, and our intelligence will be less strong and less effective.” (Source: Human Events, “Rumsfeld: Attack Imminent If Congress Cuts Defense,” by Jason Mattera, September 10, 2011).

Rumsfeld’s quote must be taken in the context of the 9/11 attacks, which were planned and executed out of the Bush White House and the Defense Department that Rumsfeld led before and after the attacks. Read the rest of this entry »

(Uruknet) – On August 22 a drone strike against the house of “suspected militants” in North Waziristan killed 20 people. It also destroyed a neighboring house full of women and children.[1] So what! Collateral damage. And, as our dear Mr. Rumsfeld once said [2] – ‘Shit happens. Get over it.’

On July 28, the dams burst in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa area of north-western Pakistan after unprecedented monsoon rains. In the next few days the news was slowly trickling out to the world of the imminent disaster from the worst floods in Pakistan’s history.

The North-West Frontier Province, however, had already been hit by disaster long before the monsoon rains started flooding the countryside, uprooting hundreds of thousands of people. The region had already been ravaged by the terrible fighting between Islamic militants and the Pakistani Armed Forces. Millions of people had already fled from their homes and their livelihoods.

Yet, Western reaction to these events, or even knowledge thereof, was practically nil. Read More Here

(RawStory) – The Pentagon’s spy unit has quietly begun to rebuild a database for tracking potential terrorist threats that was shut down after it emerged that it had been collecting information on American anti-war activists.

(PoliticalTheatrics) – Those of us who have been studying the recent career of Col. Lawrence Wilkerson were not surprised when, last week, he submitted a declaration (PDF) in a lawsuit seeking compensation from the U.S. government that was filed by former Guantánamo prisoner Adel Hassan Hamad. A Sudanese hospital worker, Hamad was sold to U.S. forces by their unscrupulous Pakistani allies in the summer of 2002, but was only released from Guantánamo in December 2007.

In the declaration, Col. Wilkerson, who served in the U.S. military for 31 years and was chief of staff to Secretary of State Colin Powell from August 2002 until January 2005, stated that George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and Donald Rumsfeld all knew — and didn’t care — that “the vast majority of Guantánamo detainees were innocent.”

The presidential electoral campaign of Barack Obama in 2008, it was thought, “changed the political debate in a party and a country that desperately needed to take a new direction.”[1] Like most preceding presidential winners dating back at least to John F. Kennedy, what moved voters of all descriptions to back Obama was the hope he offered of significant change. Yet within a year Obama has taken decisive steps, not just to continue America’s engagement in Bush’s Afghan War, but significantly to enlarge it into Pakistan. If this was change of a sort, it was a change that few voters desired. Read the rest of this entry »

Aspartame is an artificially created substance consisting of two bacteria cultured amino acids, aspartic acid and phenylalanine combined with free form methanol. The resulting chemical compound, 50 percent phenylalanine, 40 percent aspartic acid, and 10 percent methanol is two hundred times sweeter than natural sugar. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and are never found in isolation in the food we eat except when broken down chemically and re-introduced as an additive. Read the rest of this entry »

During World War II the crime of Treason in a time of war, was a hanging offence. As most Americans might remember, as Cheney Bush & Rumsfeld told us daily during their collective reign at the helm, that “this nation is at war!” Or “In this time of war, sacrifices must be made.” Okay, so what is the penalty for traitors that commit treason in this “Time of War”? What about those who collaborate with traitors that are committing acts of treason in the current “time of war”? Read the rest of this entry »

The government and their compliant corporate press mold and manage our perceptions and prefer that we focus our anger and attention on numerous distractions – the illegal aliens, illusive terrorists, same-sex marriages, welfare recipients, North Korean testing, whether torture photos should be released. The fact is that the government Elite set up this entire environment of contention to divert our attention from their treacherous unconstitutional, criminal activities – in both parties. This is all part of America’s drive into a One World Order, now hyper accelerated under the current administration. Read the rest of this entry »
