Former Vice President Dick Cheney ruffled a good many elitist feathers recently when he accused the president of pretending that America is not at war. Cheney’s words were immediately challenged by the same fellow who took three days to make a public statement about the terrorist incident on Flight 253 this Christmas Day.
So which one is right?…

Britain is bracing itself for one of the coldest winters for a century with temperatures hitting minus 16 degrees Celsius, forecasters have warned.
Parts of Scotland have had snowcover for nearly three weeks.
They predicted no let up in the freezing snap until at least mid-January, with snow, ice and severe frosts dominating.
And the likelihood is that the second half of the month will be even colder.

-- We are seeing an unmistakable pattern of British provocations of asymmetric warfare around the globe, particularly in the aftermath of the British Monarchy's failure at the recent Copenhagen conference. As we saw at the Commonwealth meeting in Trinidad Tobego, Queen Elizabeth II stepped directly onto the world stage, to declare, on behalf of the British Monarchy, "We are in charge." But just weeks later, the British failed miserably in their attempt to use Copenhagen as a final death blow…

The Federal Reserve needs more money to continue purchasing US government debt, the aggregate amount of which is soaring because of ballooning deficits. But the Fed has a problem.
The US government doesn’t pay its bills with ‘cash currency’, the green paper Americans carry around in their pocket. So the Fed cannot crank up the printing press like central banks did in Weimar Germany in the 1920s, or in recent years, in Zimbabwe.
The US government needs ‘deposit currency’ –…

That's right.
As of the first of this year between local, state and federal governments we are now governed by 40,000 more laws. They cover everything from texting to tanning.
You see, Americans aren't capable of exhibiting controlled or proper behavior and the nanny state deems it necessary to restrain our actions.
It's all by design.
In 2050 their'll be laws regarding what time you awaken, how long you brush your teeth, condom disposal and the…

"There has been a gradual erosion of civil liberties, an increase in the influence of the army, and an acceptance of corruption among public servants. Vast fortunes have been accumulated by a small group who use their wealth to control the Senate."
That's a quote taken from a description of the Roman Empire 100s of years ago.
Sound familiar?

Inverted lies that “passed into history and became truth"
By John Pilger
Global Research, December 31, 2009
In Nineteen Eighty-Four, George Orwell described a superstate called Oceania, whose language of war inverted lies that “passed into history and became truth. ‘Who controls the past’, ran the Party slogan, ‘controls the future: who controls the present controls the past’.”
Barack Obama is the leader of a contemporary…

Nat Rothschild’s career path – from playboy to plutocrat – has to be seen against the backdrop of his family history, studded as it is with eccentrics who were torn between loyalty to an immense and powerful name and the urge to break away from the clan.
His grandfather, Victor Rothschild, who died in 1990 at 79, set the pattern for much of the family in both business and lifestyle. While still at Cambridge University, he was a playboy who drove fast cars,…

Who wants to understand the states achieved today worldwide, that must escape from some dear-become mistakes. The most serious mistake is the faith that democracy is to be equated with national rule, and this is flanked by division of power, rule of law, free choices, freedom of speech and media freedom as well as the striving for social justice
Who traces back the history of the today's democracy up to her origin in England, that finds one as a natal site of the chaos determined, on…
