U.S. official resigns over war in Afghanistan

By Karen DeYoung

When Matthew Hoh joined the Foreign Service early this year, he was exactly the kind of smart civil-military hybrid the administration was looking for to help expand its development efforts in Afghanistan.

A former Marine Corps captain with combat experience in Iraq, Hoh had also served in uniform at the Pentagon, and as a civilian in Iraq and at the State Department. By July, he was the senior U.S. civilian in Zabul province, a Taliban… Continue

Be Prepared for the Worst, The large-scale government intervention in the economy is going to end badly- Ron Paul

Any number of pundits claim that we have now passed the worst of the recession. Green shoots of recovery are supposedly popping up all around the country, and the economy is expected to resume growing soon at an annual rate of 3% to 4%. Many of these are the same people who insisted that the economy would continue growing last year, even while it was clear that we were already in the beginning stages of a recession.

A false recovery is under way. I am reminded of the outlook in 1930,… Continue

Pentagon Dirty Bombers

By DAVE LINDORFF

The Nuclear Regulator Commission is considering an application by the US Army for a permit to have depleted uranium at its Pohakuloa Training Area, a vast stretch of flat land in what’s called the “saddle” between the sacred mountains of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea on Hawaii’s Big Island, and at the Schofield Barracks on the island of Oahu. In fact, what the Army is asking for is a permit to leave in place the DU left over from years of test firing of M101 mortar… Continue

Why I Worry About You

By Kellene Bishop

Preparedness Pro

Last night I was begrudgingly up until 1:45 a.m. Finally I resorted to a sleeping aid so that I could get some much needed rest. (Thank goodness it kicked in at 2:00 a.m.) In spite of being reasonably comfortable in my personal preparedness efforts to be independent and thrive regardless of the scenario, I do have a nagging thought that plagues me and… Continue

The ONLY Way We'll Ever Win - It's Just The Only Way

I've thought this over long and hard.

We're all here on 12.160Mhz for the same reasons. We despise the plans that the New World Order has in store for all of us and each and every one of us spends hours upon hours researching this subject and we all spend an equal amount of time pondering the same question, "what can I do?"

The answer is quite simple, really.

We do have the power but we generally fail to see where that power lies and we also fail to see exactly… Continue

When My Grandkids, Who Are One And Six Ask Me What Happened, What Do I Say?

President Obama has brazenly violated Article 1 Section 9 of the US Constitution by seating himself at the head of United Nations' Security Council, thus becoming the first US president to chair the world body.

A scientific dictatorship is in its final stages of completion, and laws protecting basic human rights are being abolished worldwide; an iron curtain of high-tech tyranny is now descending over the planet.

A worldwide regime controlled by an unelected corporate… Continue

UK Citizens Appetite For The Surveillance Society Life Is Slowly But Steadly Ending

Is this Orwellian or what???? “They said my privacy wasn’t intruded on because the surveillance was covert,” she said. Covert = no privacy violations???? So, restating it differently, if you don't see them watching you they are not violating privacy?? Isn't that called stalking? They are making a mockery of the laws around the world. Can anyone not say we are entering another dark age?

I wonder how much more the UK citizens will tolerate. The question is once they choose to fight,… Continue
