Dr. William Thompson used to work for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the US. The CDC recommends an annual flu vaccine for everyone 6 months and older, but Dr Thompson admits he would never give his pregnant wife a flu shot because many contain thimerosal, a mercury-containing adjuvant that he warns can be linked to toxic effects and “autism-like-features.”   Continue reading “Epidemiologist for CDC Says he Would ‘NEVER Give his Pregnant Wife’ a Flu Shot”

Anti-War – by Margaret Griffis

At least 65 were reported killed and one policeman was wounded. Almost two-dozen bodies were discovered dumped in a river.

Near Kirkuk, Peshmerga forces arrested nine Shi’ite militants who were in possession of six captives, including two Kurds, who were reported missing in September. Meanwhile, Sunni townspeople in Saidiya and Jalawla are accusing Shi’ite militias imposing “anti-Sunni” rule on them. Whatever the particulars of these cases may be, the sectarian division in these contested areas could lengthen the fighting well beyond the defeat of Islamic State militants.   Continue reading “65 Killed across Iraq, Dumped Bodies Are Found in River”

Thousands of Australians are fleeing their homes as wildfires tear through the south of the country, prompting officials to declare a major emergency and advise people to leave the “extremely dangerous” area.

Strong winds have contributed to the rapid spread of the flames, as have dry weather conditions and temperatures reaching 30 degrees Celsius. This has been called Australia’s worst since the Ash Wednesday bushfires in 1983.   Continue reading “Thousands flee as wildfires rampage through Australia”

Happy New Year to all! How does it sound to start the year off with stricter gun laws? At least this will be the case for Californians.

So here’s what California has planned: the current state law allow gun shop owners to convert a semiautomatic handgun – not on the state’s approved roster – to fire single-shot only through the use of a magazine plug and extended barrel. But back in July of this year, California Governor Jerry Brown signed the Assembly Bill 1964. This law will ban the sale of single-shot handguns that can be changed into semi-automatics.   Continue reading “New Year, New Gun Laws”

Soy_gm_bean_dna_735Natural Society – by Christina Sarich

In North America, approximately 75 to 89% of the soy beans grown are genetically modified (GM). One may not realize it, but this is concerning news – especially because recent research found that GM soy is toxic to the kidneys, liver, and more.

There isn’t just one smoking gun anymore pointing at GMO toxicology. There is now an entire arsenal of scientific research proving that genetically modified organisms adversely affect the body. In yet another new study conducted by Egyptian researchers, rats given GM soy were found to have deadly amounts of toxicity in their kidneys, liver, testes, sperm, blood and even DNA.   Continue reading “New Study Finds GMO Soy Toxic to Kidneys, Liver, and Reproduction”

The self-styled “Islamic State,” the gaggle of medieval savages and barbarians often referred to as ISIS or ISIL, is now infamous worldwide for its unrestrained brutality. The al-Qaeda offshoot exploded onto the scene in 2014 amid its gruesome and bloody effort to build an Islamic “Caliphate,” exterminate “apostates,” and overthrow the “apostate” regime of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad. America and the West are supposedly next — at least that is what the public is being told.   Continue reading “ISIS: The Best Terror Threat U.S. Tax Money Can Buy”

A ship carrying over 450 migrants, most believed to be Syrian refugees, was rescued by Italian vessels from the Mediterranean Sea on Friday after it was abandoned by its crew in rough waters, set on a collision course for the Italian coast.

The incident marks the second time in just four days that a vessel loaded with migrants and refugees has been ditched by its crew in the Mediterranean—a body of water that has become a “graveyard” for those seeking refuge as European countries heighten restrictions while cutting relief for refugees amid skyrocketing displacement.
