Remember when they called it “swine flu”? The first pandemic flu in 41 years was quickly renamed “H1N1” in its early days after the pig industry, in damage-control mode, proclaimed loudly that people couldn’t get sick from eating pork. And they said that it looked like the flu was spreading worldwide from person to person—not from pigs to people.



More than two months after the initial outbreak, it’s still not clear how the flu started. The most accepted… Continue

Steven Lendman gets it right every time. Steven Lendman has a unique writing style which sometimes and often uses very short descriptive sentences with verb abundance strung together into short paragraphs that paint a clear picture in the mind of the reader and make a spectacular and vivid point. His writing drives ones desire to understand and increase intellect making one strive for intellectual stimulation and he seems to do it with apparent… Continue

A top investment advisor, Harry Schultz - who was MarketWatch's Peter Brimelow pick for financial newsletter of the Year in 2008 - is now claiming:



Some U.S. embassies worldwide are being advised to purchase massive amounts of local currencies; enough to last them a year. Some embassies are being sent enormous amounts of U.S. cash to purchase currencies from those governments, quietly. But not pound sterling. Inside the State Dept., there is a sense of sadness and foreboding that… Continue

The British government supported by the UK media is creating an atmosphere of fear and intimidation.



A pandemic in the UK is said to be imminent affecting a large sector of the British population. There is no evidence which supports these statements. The objective is to convince the British public that vaccination is the solution.

The following individuals whose primary goal in life is socking away more dollars than they can ever spend and who are very typically borderline sociopaths, yet believe they have a voice in deciding whether over 300 million American people should know just whose interests the Fed so staunchly protects, have issued an open letter to Congress and The Executive Branch, demanding that no one ever dare have audit powers over the private institution that is the Federal Reserve.'

I'd just like to say that if there is political strife, upheaval or antagonism anywhere in the world one can be certain, without proof, that Washington has a big hand in it and especially if Democracy and human rights are being depressed. It's the way the CIA and other covert US operators work. But here's the proof for this one.



The US Department of State had prior knowledge of the coup. The Department of State and the US Congress funded and advised the actors and organisations in… Continue

That subject has never been mentioned in the mainstream media but Cynthia McKinney's recent attempt to bring humanitarian aid to Gaza via small ship was designed to shed light on this subject, although most people are still quite unaware.





On June 30th 2009, Israeli Naval gunships surrounded the Spirit of Humanity, a boat used by the Free Gaza Movement, in international waters 60 miles off the coast of Israel, and arrested twenty-one activists, from 11… Continue

The director of the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC), Rod Beckstrom, wants to see the nation’s traditions of democracy and human rights extend into the online world.



In his keynote at this year’s Black Hat conference, Beckstrom praised America’s founders, including George Mason, for devising the Bill of Rights and compared Mason’s ideas about human rights to “an open source module” created by an engineer for all to use.



“Cyberdemocracy — blogging — is a great use of… Continue

A remarkable aspect of the revelation of the secret CIA program, passed over virtually without comment in the media coverage, is that CIA Director Panetta was not informed of the program for more than four months after he assumed nominal control of the spy agency. He was sworn in as director on February 19, but his “subordinates” did not bother to tell him of the existence of the program that had been kept secret from Congress until June… Continue

The recent events in Honduras and Iran, which pit democratically elected regimes against pro-US military and civilian actors intent on overthrowing them can best be understood as part of a larger White House strategy designed to rollback the gains achieved by opposition government and movements during the Bush years.



In a manner reminiscent of Ronald Reagan’s New Cold War policies, Obama has vastly increased the military budget, increased the… Continue

In aluminum cans, the very toxic brain chemical aluminum fluoride compound co-exists with multiple toxins found in aspartame, thus creating the most powerful government-approved toxic soup imaginable. With the strong association between aluminum, excitotoxins, aluminum fluoride complexes and Alzheimer's disease, it would be completely irresponsible to encourage people to consume this toxic mixture.

Major General Albert Stubblebine III was the commanding general of the United States Army Intelligence and Security Command from 1981 to 1984, when he retired from the Army. This is a smart man who doesn't know what hit the Pentagon but he does know what didn't hit the Pentagon. A man who never met a plane with one… Continue
