The on-going situation with Syria is showing the entire world that the U.S. government is under the control of criminally insane liars. The international community has largely rejected any sort of military intervention in Syria because of alleged chemical weapons use but this has not stopped the Obama regime from moving forward with their plans to strike.

As the US Congress inches closer to a decision on a military strike on Syria, citing allegations that Assad forces used chemical weapons against the civilian population, activists in Damascus are stepping up their protest against possible attacks.
Damascene activists protesting possible US strikes on Syria set up a camp at the foot of Qasioun Mountain just outside the capital on Tuesday. Continue reading “‘Hands off’: Syrians form human shields outside possible US strike targets”

The Department of Agriculture on Friday approved four Chinese poultry processors to begin shipping a limited amount of meat to the United States, a move that is likely to add to the debate over food imports.
Initially, the companies will be allowed to export only cooked poultry products from birds raised in the United States and Canada. But critics predicted that the government would eventually expand the rules, so that chickens and turkeys bred in China could end up in the American market.

We’ve been reporting for several years about the extraordinary levels of secrecy surrounding the TPP negotiations, where little information was released about what was going on, and there were few opportunities for representatives of civic and other groups to meet with negotiators to present their point of view. More recently, there have been some indications that this lack of transparency is fueling increasing discontent among some of the participating nations. Continue reading “Desperate To Sew Up TPP Negotiations At Any Cost, Politicians Agree All Future Meetings Will Be Completely Secret”
Ann Jarrell, a 54-year-old software trainer, received an urgent phone call at work from her 23-year-old daughter, Jennifer, in March of this year.
“It smells terrible out here, Mom,” she said. “I don’t know what’s going on, but you need to get home.”
What was going on was that the Pegasus pipeline, which carried Alabasca heavy crude oil (tar sands) from Illinois to Texas, had ruptured en route and the Jarrell’s tiny town of Mayflower, Ark. had a river of oil flowing through its streets. Continue reading “Exxon Made Us Sick: Ann Jarrell Is Outraged, and She’s Not Alone”

Our hostess in Alabama submitted the above picture of her EDC bag. I have no idea what she has inside, nor would I discuss it if I did…but I bet dollars to donuts a Bad Guy won’t enjoy finding out…
Patriots across America are preparing for dark times ahead. I hope you managed to get a bit of prep work in this weekend. When the North American Liberty Games begin again at full-speed (most of us understand the starter pistol has already fired), there will be little time for OJT, there will be very few preps available, and even movement from one AO to another is likely to be very difficult, especially if you are moving with family and defensive capabilities.

Natural News can now reveal that the Syria chemical weapons narrative being pushed by the White House is an outlandish hoax.
To understand why, you have to start with the story published in The Independent entitled Revealed: Government let British company export nerve gas chemicals to Syria. Continue reading “Syria’s ‘chemical weapons’ turn out to be sodium fluoride used in the U.S. water supply and sold at Wal-Mart”
The American War Brief Is Extremely Weak
The White House released a 4-page document setting forth its case for use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government.
But as shown below, the case is extremely weak (government’s claim in quotes, followed by rebuttal evidence). Continue reading “Point-By-Point Rebuttal of U.S. Case for War In Syria”
Russia raised the alarm on Tuesday after detecting the launch of two ballistic “objects” in the Mediterranean Sea but Israel later said it had carried out a joint missile test with the United States.
There were no reports of missile strikes on Syria. Syrian state sources said the missiles had fallen harmlessly into the sea and there were no explosions in the capital Damascus, Russian news agencies reported. Continue reading “Russia raises alarm over Israeli missile test in Mediterranean”
Russian President Vladimir Putin says he supports the idea of sending a delegation from the country’s parliament to Washington to urge members of the U.S. Congress not to support military intervention in Syria.
Valentina Matviyenko, who chairs the Federation Council, the Russian parliament’s upper chamber, outlined the proposal to send a parliamentary delegation to the U.S. on Monday during a meeting with Putin. The meeting also was attended by Sergei Naryshkin, the speaker of the State Duma, the lower parliamentary house. Continue reading “Russia Wants to Talk to US Congress About Syria”

Following President Obama’s decision to pass the blame buck to Congress (and its oh-so-great track record of making decisions), the Syrian Electronic Army has struck again. This time right at the heart of the matter – defacing the “Marines.com” website. As The Independent reports, the US Marines received a message calling for support from their “brothers, the Syrian army soldiers” – in the form of a web attack changing the homepage of the official Marines recruitment site to a page entitled ““Hacked by SEA.” The message also stated,“Obama is a traitor who wants to put your lives in danger to rescue al-Qaida insurgents,” which seems to fit with many of their perspectives as we have noted previously. Full text and screenshot below… Continue reading “Syrian Electronic Army Hacks “Marines.com”; Calls Them “Brothers” In Arms”
Syria has asked the United Nations to prevent “any aggression” against Syria following a call over the weekend by U.S. President Barack Obama for punitive strikes against the Syrian military for last month’s chemical weapons attack.
Washington says more than 1,400 people, many of them children, were killed in the world’s worst use of chemical arms since Iraq’s Saddam Hussein gassed thousands of Kurds in 1988. Continue reading “Syria asks the United Nations to stop U.S. strike”
Anew surveillance progamme has now come to light that is far greater in size than NSA’s PRISM programme, according to the New York Times. Law enforcement officers, as part of a counter-narcotics programme, have routinely been able to access a huge AT&T database containing decades of American phone calls records for the past six years. Continue reading “US drug agent-run surveillance programme surfaces, reportedly bigger than PRISM”
In Washington DC:
About 100 anti-war protesters and some 50 supporters of the Syrian opposition faced off outside the White House Saturday as President Barack Obama weighed a strike against the Damascus regime.
Police on horseback intervened to separate the two groups who for several minutes appeared on the verge of coming to blows. Continue reading “Anti-War Protests Across the Country”
The Obama administration tried to prevent UN inspections of the chemical attack. It failed, although the weapons inspectors were forced to leave a day early.
The real question is whether the U.S. will wait for the results of the tests, which could take weeks.
As can be seen below, the rockets used in the attacks are certainly non-standard, and much less sophisticated even then a Scud missile. Continue reading “Actual Video of UN Weapons Inspectors Examining Syrian Chemical Weapon Rockets”
