UNRWA has been the UN branch concerned with the issue of Palestinian refugees since 1949. Grandi was speaking in Jordan at the opening session of UNRWA’s Advisory Commission. Continue reading “UN official: Gaza is quickly becoming uninhabitable”
“When you are going to take their guns,” observes Special Agent John Marsh, “they are not happy.”
“They” are California residents who have been designated as “prohibited persons” by the state’s Armed Prohibited Persons System (APPS). Those individuals are said to have “lost” their rights under the Second Amendment. Marsh leads a special APPS paramilitary task force dedicated exclusively to gun confiscation.

Either it’s legal or not. The reason Uruguay just recently made marijuana legal was so the government could capture the tax losses that went to drug cartels, much like governments throughout history have thrown out moneylenders for stealing large parts of the government property tax base by usurious lending followed by foreclosures – Tom Dennen
“Meanwhile a powerful host of accusers fell with sudden fury on that class which systematically increased its wealth by usury in defiance of a law passed by Caesar… defining the terms of lending money and of holding estates in Italy, a law long obsolete because the public good is sacrificed to private interest” – Publius Gaius Cornelius Tacitus, The Annals of Rome AD 27.

As many people already know, about two thirds of all drinking water in the United States is fluoridated. What is also widely accepted is the fact that fluoride has many side effects to our health, making it an unwanted harmful substance.
What is relatively new news is that fluoride in our drinking water has been linked to sperm damage and other reproductive issues, severely inhibiting fertility in men who drink fluoridated water regularly. Continue reading “The Contraceptive The Government Hides In Our Drinking Water”

In every country I can think of, the sovereignty and wealth of the Nation, which was once the embodiment of the power and will of the people, is being butchered and sold to the highest bidder. Everywhere, the Nation and the people within it, are under attack. Not from without by terrorists but from within. Because in every country the people who run the State have largely decided they no longer wish to serve the people but prefer instead to serve the interests of a Global Over-Class.
Of course we are not encouraged to see this clearly or if we do, certainly not to speak of it to others. And many of those we might try to talk to, do not want to hear. Continue reading “The New World Order – Part 1. The Betrayal of the Nation”

There seems always to be some combination of imperialists and Zionists available to sabotage any normalization of relations with Iran. This time, it’s the French, Israelis and Saudis, allowing the U.S. to play the role of frustrated peace-seeker. “The Saudis and the French are equal opportunity crooks,” but in terms of threats to peace in the region, nobody is more warlike than Israel.
Iran has never invaded or occupied another nation, it hasn’t killed civilians with drones, it never had any colonies, nor did it enslave millions of people or keep a huge portion of its population behind bars. Its political system is run by a class of conservative clerics and can’t be called democratic in the classic sense. Then again, the same can be said for countries who only choose leadership from among those given a stamp of approval by the wealthiest 1%. Despite these attributes, Iran is demonized by forces in the West who want that nation to exist only as a vassal state. Continue reading “Axis of Evil: France, Israel, Saudi Arabia”
A federal appeals court upheld the constitutionality of a lifetime ban on gun possession for anyone convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals held Monday that a person convicted of domestic violence is disqualified from the core right of Second Amendment to possess firearms for defense of the home.
The only two exceptions are: if the conviction is expunged or set aside and if the offender is pardoned and has his or her civil rights restored. Continue reading “Lifetime Gun Ban Constitutional in Spousal Abuse Cases”

Once again, the Feds are ignoring state laws and going after lawful businesses and making sick people suffer needlessly. The states need to start telling the Feds to get the Hell out of their states and allow them to run their state, the citizens vote for it to be run. This is a personal, medical issue, that isn’t the Feds business at all. Continue reading “Denver-Area Marijuana Dispensaries And Grow Operations Raided By Feds (Video)”
(Jerusalem, Israel) — The plan is set. The air force has trained. Everything is in place. Should Prime Minister Netanyahu order a full scale attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, the Israeli Defense Forces are ready to go into battle. They are ready to do so alone, without American or other allied support. And Israel will succeed.
This was the message of Netanyahu’s outgoing national security advisor Yaakov Amidror in recent days, and it has Mideast analysts buzzing. Continue reading ““We are not bluffing.” Israel ready to strike Iran alone, says Netanyahu’s outgoing national security advisor.”

Charlotte, NC –-(Ammoland.com)- New York billionaire Michael Bloomberg has begun pushing his radical anti-gun agenda in cities throughout California.
His tactic is to use his financial and legal resources to support anti-gun voter initiatives and ballot measures in local elections. Bloomberg’s social engineering agenda is now focused on Los Altos and Mountain View. Continue reading “California: Bloomberg Bringing His Anti-Gun Agenda to Los Altos and Mountain View”
I don’t know what holiday dinners are like at Michael Bloomberg’s house, but I suspect there’s an awful lot of picking at food while the windbag at the head of the table lectures the assembled guests about why he’s right and they’re all idiots. That’s the message I get from his pet Mayors Against Illegal Guns organization, which wants its loyal minions, if there are any, to sit down to their Thanksgiving feasts and immediately start fights with relatives they haven’t seen in a year about gun control. All you need is a handy list of tendentious talking points—and a shitload of patience from Cousin Bob, who rebuilds old pistols for fun and just wrapped himself around half a bottle of Jack Daniels.

As someone in the office just put it: “You can die for your country, but you can’t smoke a cigarette.” That line, usually just applicable to drinking throughout the United States, will soon apply to anyone between the ages of 18 and 20 trying to buy tobacco productsin New York City. Today, Mayor Bloomberg signed a new law (passed by City Council earlier this year) that means in 180 days it will no longer be legal for high school seniors to use time-honored traditions to look cool at parties where there are college kids.
