I've appended a Telegraph record of recent frantic behavior by BP's CEO.

I've been muckraking for a long time, and when something smells

strongly of a fraud, a false flag op, or any kind of enormous scam, I

figure that something was something rotten. Did the head of BP fear

and foresee the precise tragedy that occurred killing eleven workers

THE HERESY OF THE GREEKS OFFERS HOPE

John Pilger

inverts the perception of Greece as a "junk country" and sees hope in the uprising of ordinary Greeks protesting against the "bailout" of an economy plunged into debt by the tax-evading rich. Greece, he writes, is a microcosm for the developed world, where class war are the words seldom used because… Continue

After Greece now Hungary Admits: We Cooked The Books

Jun 4 2010,

There's a saying I've heard from accountants: recessions uncover what auditors can't. When a company has reasonable cash flow and access to credit, dodgy practices can be hidden for quite some time. But when sales dry up and banks tighten the purse strings, eventually companies are forced to admit that there is no money in the till.

That's why recessions always seem to be accompanied by revelations of terrible accounting practices,… Continue

Is Obama's Order to Massively Use Drone Attacks a Violation of the Law of Nations?

Is Obama's Order to Massively Use Drone Attacks a Violation of the Law of Nations?

I've been a critic of the use of drone attacks since day one. Every such attack has constituted a violation of the Geneva Accords and the law of nations. The great majority of the slain people have been noncombatants. Many others have merely been suspected to be Taliban. Killing civilians and Taliban suspects in this manner obviously are criminal acts… Continue

What if it Were Your Child?

Almost every subject can be argued

two ways, especially when the subject at hand is as controversial as the

Palestinian-Israeli conflict. No matter how unjust the Israeli siege on

the Gaza Strip is, there will always be those biased souls that justify

it with the "Hamas terrorists" argument and the hackneyed Israeli

pretext of state security. However, one subject, which cannot possibly

have a flip side to it, is the torture of… Continue
