A suicide epidemic now grips the United States, but that news comes in conjunction with several alarming reports — including underreporting by pharmaceutical companies of the scope of suicides related to antidepressant use, as well as an increase in overdoses by those prescribed anti-anxiety medication.

“An estimated 9.3 million adults (3.9% of the adult U.S. population) reported having suicidal thoughts in the past year,” said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in their 2015 suicide statistics. In fact, “suicide was the tenth leading cause of death for all ages in 2013.”   Continue reading “Suicides Skyrocketing Alongside Climbing Antidepressant Use & Big Pharma is Covering it Up”

Less than two years ago, news of Russia test-firing an ICBM just as the east Ukraine civil war was heating up, was sufficient to send the stock market into a brief tailspin. Since then, the launches of nuclear-tipped intercontinental ballistic missiles has become an almost daily occurrence, with the market hardly batting an eyelid.

In fact, it happened just last night at 11:01pm PST at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, where – for the second time this week – the US test-fired its second intercontinental ballistic missile in the past seven days, seeking to demonstrate its nuclear arms capacity at a time of rising strategic tensions with Russia, North Korea, China and the middle east.   Continue reading “Caught On Tape: U.S. Test Fires Nuclear ICBM, Warns “We Are Prepared To Use Nuclear Weapons””

As a shaky ceasefire agreement is set to take hold in Syria on February 27, the threat of a NATO-backed Turkish, Saudi, Qatari, and UAE military invasion of Syria remains looming in the background.

By now, the Saudis and the Emirates have been revealed for the paper tigers that they are by virtue of their disastrous military campaign in Yemen. While the Saudi/UAE forces have managed to return the Hadi government to semi-power in parts of Yemen, a battle against ragtag rebels wearing sandals and carrying light arms has nevertheless decimated much of the Saudi-led coalition forces.   Continue reading “Saudi Generals Sign “Secret” Letter To Monarch And Gov’t Warning Against Invasion Of Syria”
