It shouldn’t surprise. It’s longstanding policy. Post-9/11, it escalated. Previous articles said Big Brother is real. It’s no longer fiction.

Mass surveillance is official US policy. It’s not for national security. It’s not about discovering terror or other threats. None whatever exist. Claiming otherwise doesn’t wash. Big Lies substitute for vital truths.   Continue reading “Mass Surveillance in America”

This year’s Bilderberg 2013 meeting has witnessed and extraordinary culture of secrecy surrounding the event’s large security operation, at a time when the public are told that austerity is meant to be the order of the day. But that’s not all..

Police officials are maintaining that the reason for such secrecy in advance of the event, and the extraordinary security measures has all been done in order ‘to combat the threat of terrorism’. Some might feel otherwise – that this hugely expensive exercise has been hidden in order to limit the public’s knowledge and access to the Bilderberg meeting, which in turn has helped interested parties in controlling press coverage, and keeping activists from learning too much, too soon about the secretive event.   Continue reading “Bilderberg PR diversions concealed massive police build-up in advance of event”

Over and over again, the elite have managed to try and outsmart us and make the people feel as though they are one step ahead of us. After each passing false flag event, however, we have begun to develop our own kind of formulas and evaluations as to how the elite will tactically proceed after executing their next false flag attack, since we all know that these attacks won’t stop until We the People stand up and put a stop to it ourselves.

So in order to possibly understand their ways, I have been studying Sun Tzu’s, The Art of War and have found some interesting strategic steps that I feel the elite have probably used in the past and that we can study to help us analyze their possible tactics. Just like a disease, in order to fight, slow down and stop a threatening attack from spreading, it’s important that we know the possible stages that it must go through in order to carry out its function. Only then, can we find the means to counter the attack after it is set in motion.   Continue reading “How the elite try to use sheer cunning on the day that they take up command”

Soldiers loyal to the Syrian regime walk near a damaged church in Qusair June 6, 2013, after the Syrian army took control of the city from rebel fighters. REUTERS/Rami BleibelMy analysis: So because the elite can’t get their way and win, it risks wider conflict, according to the MSM. Apparently, we are all supposed to sympathize with THEIR analysis.

In 2001, Recep Tayyip Erdogan established the Justice and Development Party (AKP). In November 2002, it won nearly two-thirds of parliamentary seats. It did so with 35% of the vote.

Earlier dominant parties were rebuffed. Hard times aroused public anger. Voters rejected corrupt political rule. At the time, Istanbul newspaper Sabah called AKP’s triumph a “revolution by impoverished Anatolia against the old political guard.”   Continue reading “Anti-Government Protests Rock Turkey”

Recently, Attorney General Eric Holder appeared before the House Judiciary Committee to answer questions about the administration’s sweeping surveillance of journalists with the Associated Press. In the greatest attack on the free press in decades, the Justice Department seized phone records for reporters and editors in at least three AP offices as well as its office in the House of Representatives. Holder, however, proceeded to claim absolute and blissful ignorance of the investigation, even failing to recall when or how he recused himself.   Continue reading “Fire Eric Holder: Column”
