Financial Heist of the Century: Confiscating Libya's Sovereign Wealth Funds Tags: * ISRAEL * LIBYA * WAR/DRAFT/VETERAN AFFAIRS * WHITE HOUSE The objective of the war against Libya is not just its oil reserves (now estimated at 60 billion barrels), which are the greatest in Africa and whose extraction costs are among the lowest in the world, nor the natural gas reserves of which are estimated at about 1,500 billion cubic meters. In the crosshairs of "willing" of the operation “Unified Protector” there are sovereign wealth funds, capital that the Libyan state has invested abroad. » * * Permalink^ Apr 24 13:32 A Survey of Uses and Users of Online Sources of Political Information Tags: * COMPUTERS/INTERNET/SECURITY * CORPORATE MEDIA The purpose of this survey is to examine the uses and users of online sources for political information.

Nearly half (47%) of all samples of meat and poultry taken from supermarkets across the US reveal contamination from Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Staph is bad enough (causing food poisoning and skin infections), but nearly half of the staph bacteria discovered on these meat products is a nasty antibiotic-resistant type known as MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus).

Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin had such a deep-rooted hatred of the British that the Jewish state covertly became the biggest supplier of military equipment to the Argentine military junta. Gas masks, radar alert systems, air-to-air missiles and fuel tanks for fighter bombers were sent from Tel Aviv to arm General Galtieri’s forces. The most audacious deal involved supplying 23 French-built fighter aircraft – Mirage IIICs – which were camouflaged with the insignia of Peru. But they arrived after the war was over. » * Apr 24 11:46 Beyond ForeclosureGate: It Gets Uglier Tags: * DICTATORSHIP * ECONOMY The ForeclosureGate scandal poses a threat to Wall Street, the big banks, and the political establishment.

Foreclosure practices lift the veil on a broader set of interlocking efforts to exploit those hardest hit by the endless economic hard times, citizens who become financially desperate due medical conditions. A 2007 study found that medical expenses or income losses related to medical crises among bankruptcy filers or family members triggered 62% of bankruptcies. There is no underground conspiracy. The facts are in plain sight. » * * Permalink^ Apr 24 11:12 Egypt’s revolution and the US: Mubarak’s fatal error By: My Catbird Seat Tags: * CORPORATE MEDIA * COVER-UP/DECEPTIONS/PROPAGANDA * CURRENT EVENTS * DICTATORSHIP * EUROPE * ISRAEL * MIDDLE EAST * POLITICS/ELECTIONS/CORRUPTION * PROTESTS/REVOLUTION * WAR/DRAFT/VETERAN AFFAIRS * WHITE HOUSE The fall of Egypt’s leader and his political party is because he learned the wrong lessons from his patrons.

"This was a disaster waiting to happen," he concludes. And the lesson? Replacing Tepco's management won't solve anything, he says, because the logic of Japan's energy policies is that nuclear power generation is absolutely necessary. "So nuclear power must be seen as absolutely safe." Ordinary people must "take democracy into their own hands", he added. "If they do not, in 10 years time we will see another disaster.

The incident that gives sense to the week’s climactic events is Jesus’s overturning of the money tables at the temple.

There were three specific charges: encouraging non-payment of taxes, threatening to destroy property (the temple), and claiming to be a king. Webmaster's Commentary: Basically, the historical Jesus, in overturning the tables o the money-changers at the Temple, was attacking a private system of profit that made money from forcing people to use a mandated coinage for mandated behaviors. In a very real way, the Temple Money-Changers operated like the Federal Reserve of today. No wonder the money-junkies murdered Jesus in the most public and horrific way they could!

Overall, the SIGTARP found that Treasury’s lax oversight of its contracts with Venable and other firms had created an “unacceptable risk” that taxpayers are overpaying for legal services related to the bailout.

The Public Broadcasting System, financed with taxpayers funds, recently showed a series of "holocaust" films, each more incredible than the last. In one, an elderly Jewess returns to Auschwitz, where she claims to have been incarcerated forty years age. "It voss a death camp?" she exclaims. She then stated that she remained there for four years, although the Germans "killed everybody every day." She was then asked how she has survived. "I hid in the camp," she explained, "but I had nothing to eat for three years." Webmaster's Commentary: There is no question that the Nazis were evil people as anyone who marches armed into another's lands to steal them are evil, whether it be Iraq or Palestine. And there is no question that Germany had slave labor camps. And there is no question than a great many people died in those camps. What begs examination is whether the inmates at those camps died of the typhoid epidemics that swept across Germany towards the end of the war, or whether there was a deliberate program of extermination. The modern nation of Israel owes its very existence to the latter version of events. Here you had the entire world sacrificing much blood and treasure on the principle that one nation did not have the right to simply grab the land belonging to another people, and you had the founders of Israel seeking the world's permission to do exactly that in Palestine. Without a propaganda device to persuade the world that Israel be allowed to do to Palestine what Germany could not be allowed to do to France, Israel would not exist. So there is no question that motive existed to amplify the events of WW2 in a way that supported the creation of Israel. » * 1 comment * * Permalink^ Apr 23 08:34 Mexico’s Drug War Body Count Mounts Tags: * CURRENT EVENTS The past two weeks have produced yet more gruesome episodes in Mexico’s bloody drug wars. Mass graves discovered in northern Mexico contain at least 145 bodies, up from 116 three days earlier. And that toll may grow. An already bad security environment in Mexico continues to worsen. On April 8, The U.S. consulate in Monterrey issued—and then in a most curious move, later rescinded—a warning to Americans that they were increasingly likely to be cartel targets in three northern Mexican states. Webmaster's Commentary: The US and Mexico should, jointly, follow Portugal's model, which decriminalized drugs, and decided upon a course of treatment and therapy, as opposed to incarceration. And this policy has been working since 2001. As reported 6 April 2009 at: http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1893946,00.html ""Judging by every metric, decriminalization in Portugal has been a resounding success," says Glenn Greenwald, an attorney, author and fluent Portuguese speaker, who conducted the research. "It has enabled the Portuguese government to manage and control the drug problem far better than virtually every other Western country does." Compared to the European Union and the U.S., Portugal's drug use numbers are impressive. Following decriminalization, Portugal had the lowest rate of lifetime marijuana use in people over 15 in the E.U.: 10%. The most comparable figure in America is in people over 12: 39.8%. Proportionally, more Americans have used cocaine than Portuguese have used marijuana." Of course, that is most likely to happen when pigs fly, because of the enormous profits from the drug trade, just as happened during Prohibition. And the banks would hate it, because they also make a ton of money laundering drug money. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/apr/03/us-bank-mexico-drug-gangs » * 2 comments * Permalink^ Apr 23 08:34 House Resolution Provides Israel Impunity for Gaza Crimes Tags: * DICTATORSHIP * ISRAEL The UN Fact Finding Mission on the Gaza Conflict found that Israel committed violations of human rights and international law, war crimes and possible crimes against humanity before, during, and after "Operation Cast Lead," Israel's Dec. 2008 to Jan. 2009 onslaught against the Gaza Strip, which killed more than 1,400 Palestinians.

Nationwide, the companies injected 11.4 million gallons of products containing at least one of the so-called BTEX chemicals (benzene, toluene, xylene, and ethylbenzene), according to the report produced by Democrats on the Energy and Commerce Committee, including Colorado’s Diana DeGette. Colorado, along with Oklahoma and Texas, ranked in the top three for the highest volume of fluids containing possible carcinogens.

With the Pakistani Army demanding an end to the strikes, their continuation is fueling growing tensions between the two nations. Pakistani officials have confirmed that the US contingent has left Shamsi Air Base in Balochistan Province, which is the key base for CIA drones. It is unclear if they were ordered out or left for some other reason. Webmaster's Commentary: If the two major goals of the campaign in Afghanistan were to create chaos and massive anti-American sentiment, then one has to say, "Mission accomplished" here, but there is much more to the US military campaign than that. As reported at: http://truthiscontagious.com/2011/04/23/carving-up-pakistan-the-balochistan-gambit "Pakistan in particular has jointly built a new port with China in the coastal city of Gwadar in the southern province of Balochistan. This port serves as a potential terminal for a north-south transit corridor to transport oil and goods directly into Chinese territory via the northern Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan. It also serves the potential to host a Chinese naval presence. The US bid to interfere internally to disrupt this is hardly a conspiracy theory. Globalist scribe Selig Harrison of the Soros funded Center for International Policy has published two pieces regarding the overarching importance of Pakistan in a broader geopolitical context and “suggestions” on how it can be solved. Harrison’s February 2011 piece, “Free Baluchistan,” in name alone indicates yet another “freedom movement” contrived and fueled to give a favorable outcome to his corporate-financier patrons. He explicitly calls to “aid the 6 million Baluch insurgents fighting for independence from Pakistan in the face of growing ISI repression.” He continues by explaining the various merits of such meddling by stating, “Pakistan has given China a base at Gwadar in the heart of Baluch territory. So an independent Baluchistan would serve U.S. strategic interests in addition to the immediate goal of countering Islamist forces.” "Globalists would like to carve out a “Free Baluchistan” in order to disrupt Chinese-Pakistani relations. Baluchi rebels are already being armed and supported by the US in terrorist operations against Iran." » * Permalink^ Apr 23 08:14 Short Life Expectancy for BP Whistleblowers?
