In an interview with Al Jazeera's Avi Lewis for the Fault Lines programme, Republican Newt Gingrich said targeting Iran's refinery would spark an economic crisis that would destabilise the government in Tehran.
He said the US should "use covert operations … to create a gasoline-led crisis to try… Continue

What is at stake is more than one small country; it is a big idea: a new world order, where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind -- peace and security, freedom, and the rule of law - George H.W. Bush, State of the Union Address, 29 January 1991.
There is a chance for the President of the United States to use this disaster to carry out what his father - a phrase his father… Continue
Though I don't subscribe to their beliefs and such....it is becoming quite clear that freedom of speech isn't so free anymore and what happens in the UK eventually makes its way to our shores. They don't even lock up pedophiles and rapists as long as they're locking up these two guys.

I think I’ve become quite good a waking people up to the truth of 9/11 and other assorted atrocities.

It’s best to use subtly and to never raise your voice when speaking with the uninitiated. People like to feel like they are making up their own mind. Most people hate to be mentally pushed in one way or another. Therefore, the best tactic is to start… Continue
