American Everyman – by Scott Creighton

A guy who is linked to Big Oil’s quest to conquer the Caspian Sea oil basin and a former CIA contractor says Temerlan was led astray by websites that say our efforts in the Middle East are all about oil and the CIA is responsible for 9/11. Go figure

According to Ruslan Tsarni, Tamerlan was apparently anti-Semitic and had a mysterious mentor who was a convert to Islam named “Misha”. he was partly “radicalized” by “conspiracy theory” websites like Prison Planet. That’s what Ruslan says anyway. You remember him. He came out like 20 minutes after they were announced as the suspects and basically said “Yeah, those losers did it”  Continue reading “Boston Bombings: Tamerlan is an anti-Semitic “Truther” and the FBI’s CI has a Name – “Misha””

NEW YORK (MYFOXNY) – The New York Police Department is teaming up with a national laboratory to study how chemical weapons could be dispersed through the air into the subway system.

Researchers will track the movement of harmless tracer gases. They’ll place air sampling devices in specific areas on the street and within the subway system. The gases mimic how a chemical or biological weapon may react if released.   Continue reading “NYPD teams with US lab to study airborne weapons”

Out of the entire universe of those who could have won the first phase construction contract for California’s high speed rail boondoggle, who would stand out as the last person who would win it if there were no political patronage.

Put another way, who is the most likely person to win it if there is political patronage?   Continue reading “Dirty Business as Usual at California High Speed Rail”

Senior Obama administration officials have secretly authorized the interception of communications carried on portions of networks operated by AT&T and other Internet service providers, a practice that might otherwise be illegal under federal wiretapping laws.

The secret legal authorization from the Justice Department originally applied to a cybersecurity pilot project in which the military monitored defense contractors’ Internet links. Since then, however, the program has been expanded by President Obama to cover all critical infrastructure sectors including energy, healthcare, and finance starting June 12.

Senator Rand Paul’s celebrated filibuster of the nomination of CIA Director John Brennan over the Obama administration’s unclear stance on lethal drone strikes on Americans on U.S. soil (which was cleared up slightly) apparently meant absolutely nothing. He has now contradicted himself entirely and stated that he supports the idea of drones killing Americans without charge or trial.   Continue reading “Rand Paul flip-flops, says drone strikes on U.S. citizens on U.S. soil without charge or trial are okay”

Its been a banner decade for modern military fighting. In 2010 alone there were more than 70 armed conflicts across the globe from Sangin to Ingushetia.

As different as each of them were, they all had one thing in common, at some point one side wanted more troops.   Continue reading “The World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Armies”

If the thought of standing accused of a crime you didn’t commit makes you wake up in a cold sweat, you may be suffering from a modern anxiety disorder called patsiphobia or fear of being framed. This condition is provoked by exposure to sloppy false-flag events and contradictory mainstream narratives that result in such cognitive dissonance that many begin to fear that they themselves may be about to go out and do something awful for no apparent reason.   Continue reading “Top 10 Signs You May Be A Patsy”

“This is a story about an extreme miscarriage of justice. It involves the CIA, the US Army and a shitload of cocaine.”

“If you want to, you can question anything to death,” says director Eric Stacey, his melodic Californian drawl coming slow and steady down the line. “But my point of view is, if enough people are writing about the same thing from different backgrounds and perspectives, there’s got to be something to it.”   Continue reading “Filmmaker claims CIA kept innocent man jailed to cover up drug trafficking”

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

Over the course of the last month, while Americans were distracted with the threat of nuclear war on the Korean peninsula and the devastation wrought by the Boston bombings, President Obama was quietly working behind the scenes to craft laws and regulations that will further erode the Second Amendment.

Congress, and thus We the People, may have unequivocally rejected federal legislation in March which aimed to outlaw most semi-automatic rifles, restrict magazine capacity, and force national registration, but that didn’t stop the President from ceding regulatory control over firearms importation to the United Nations just two weeks later. What the UN Arms Trade Treaty, passed without media fanfare by 154 counties, would do is to restrict the global trade of, among other things, small arms and light weapons. Opponents of the treaty argue that loopholes within the new international framework for global gun control may make it illegal for Americans to purchase and import firearms manufactured outside of the United States.   Continue reading “Executive Action: Obama To Ban Importation of Ammo, Magazines and Gun Accessories Without Congressional Approval”

The brothers suspected to have carried out the Boston Marathon bombings earlier this week were caught on camera at a convenience store on the night of April 18—but they didn’t rob a 7-Eleven in Cambridge as has widely been reported, says company spokeswoman Margaret Chabris.

Chabris told Maclean’s that a 7-Eleven location at 750 Massachusetts Ave. in Cambridge did experience a robbery last night, but the Tsarnaev brothers are not the suspects. She said widely released surveillance photos that feature Dzhokhar Tsarnaev do not resemble the interior of any 7-Eleven location in the area.   Continue reading “Tsarnaev brothers didn’t rob a 7-Eleven: spokeswoman”

Be Your Own Leader – by Dana Gabriel

In March, the Canadian government introduced a bill that would bring about sweeping changes to its copyright and trademark laws. This includes giving more power to customs and border protection agents without any judicial oversight. The move is intended to prevent counterfeit goods from entering the country, but has been criticized for being less about protecting Canadians and more about caving to American demands. With the U.S. dictating global intellectual property standards, the new legislation represents the return of ACTA and would pave the way for Canada to ratify the controversial international treaty.    Continue reading “The Return of ACTA: U.S. Dictating Canada’s Intellectual Property Laws”

A gunman took at least two shots at a security officer outside the Watts Bar nuclear power plant in east Tennessee and then escaped in a boat, a spokesman for the Tennessee Valley Authority said.

The incident, which is being investigated by the FBI and local police authorities, occurred just before 2 a.m. Sunday. TVA spokesman Jim Hopson said the gunman has not been apprehended.   Continue reading “FBI investigating shooting incident at Tennessee nuclear power plant”

Syrian government forces have used chemical weapons – probably nerve gas – in their fight against rebels trying to force out President Bashar al-Assad, the Israeli military’s top intelligence analyst said on Tuesday.

Brigadier-General Itai Brun made the comments at a Tel Aviv security conference a day after U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said on a visit to Israel that U.S. intelligence agencies were still assessing whether such weapons had been employed.   Continue reading “Propaganda Alerta: Israel says Syria used chemical arms, probably nerve gas”

Iran has strongly rejected a recent claim by the Canadian government over alleged links between the suspects in a foiled terrorist attack in Canada and Tehran.

Canada said on Monday that its police had arrested two ‘foreign nationals’ who were planning to derail a VIA passenger train traveling between Toronto and New York, claiming that the suspects had links to “al-Qaeda elements inside Iran.”    Continue reading “Iran rejects Canada’s claim about terror suspects’s links”

In the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Monday the country’s interpretation of the Constitution will “have to change” to allow for greater security to stave off future attacks.

“The people who are worried about privacy have a legitimate worry,” Mr. Bloomberg said during a press conference in Midtown. “But we live in a complex word where you’re going to have to have a level of security greater than you did back in the olden days, if you will. And our laws and our interpretation of the Constitution, I think, have to change.”  Continue reading “Bloomberg Says Interpretation of Constitution Will ‘Have to Change’ After Boston Bombing”
