The Dissenter – by Kevin Gosztola

The National Security Agency sent out a letter to all of its employees and affiliates, including contractors, that could be printed and shared with family, friends and colleagues. It was intended to reassure them that the NSA is not really the abusive and unchecked spying agency engaged in illegal activity that someone reading former NSA contractor Edward Snowden’s disclosures might think it happens to be.

The letter, sent on September 13, is signed by NSA Director Gen. Keith Alexander and NSA Deputy Director John Inglis, begins, “We are writing to you, our extended NSA/CSS family, in light of the unauthorized disclosure of classified information by a former contractor employee.”  Continue reading “NSA Sends Letter to Its ‘Extended’ Family to Reassure Them That They Will ‘Weather’ This ‘Storm’”

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan freed the Afghan Taliban’s former deputy leader on Saturday after years of detention in a move that many officials in Islamabad and Kabul hope will aid Afghanistan’s struggling peace process.

But others doubt Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar will do much good, and the United States, which opposed his release, is worried he could return to the battlefield. That could give the Taliban in Afghanistan a boost at a time when the U.S. is drawing down its troops and increasingly relying on Afghan forces to fight insurgents.  Continue reading “Pakistan releases top Afghan Taliban prisoner”

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — A human-trafficking charge against a Saudi princess was abruptly dismissed Friday after prosecutors were unable to support claims by a Kenyan maid who said she had to escape from her employer’s condominium after having her passport taken and being forced to work long hours for meager pay.

The announcement came during what had been expected to be the arraignment of Meshael Alayban, 42, on the felony charge punishable by up to 12 years in prison. Orange County District Attorney Tony Rackauckas told the judge that investigators tried to corroborate the allegations but found the evidence did not support the claim.  Continue reading “Trafficking case against Saudi princess dismissed”

African-American middle school students were forced to act as slaves, pretending to be sold at auction and standing in the darkness of a would-be slave ship, all while enduring racial epithets, a human rights lawsuit filed by a student’s mother claims.

Sandra Baker told the Hartford Courant this week that her  daughter, who is black, said she and other students in her  seventh grade class were “terrorized” during a field trip  to Nature’s Classroom in Charlton, Massachusetts. Parents of the  students, who traveled from Hartford Magnet Trinity College  Academy 45 minutes away, were not told their children would be  participating in a slavery reenactment when giving permission for  the trip.    Continue reading “Parent files lawsuit over slavery reenactment on school field trip”

Linux creator admits NSA demanded backdoorSalon – by Natasha Lennard

Speaking at the keynote LinuxCon panel this year, Linus Torvalds, who created the open-source Linux operating system 22 years ago, revealed that the government had approached him about installing a backdoor into system’s structure. Linux is the preferred operating system for the privacy conscious infosec community.

It’s just the latest in a string of revelations illustrating how the NSA have for a number of years attempted to intervene in the very structuring of online communications and cryptography to enable easier surveillance.  Continue reading “Linux creator admits NSA demanded backdoor”

attenboroug-plague-population-controlStory Leak – by Anthony Gucciardi

Top globalist Sir David Attenborough, who last year described humans  as a ‘plague on Earth’, has now gone on record in calling for nations of the  world to stop sending food aid to starving nations in order to reduce the  population of the world.

Speaking with the Daily Telegraph, the highly decorated  psychopath expanded upon his notion that the  plague of humanity must be reduced throughout the world. Reduction  that, according to him, really starts with starving poorer nations that have  been decimated by first world global powers (and could be fed with  about a week or so of military spending). The problem, Attenborough  says, however, comes down to numerous “huge sensitivities” that continue to  block the goal of massive population reduction.  Continue reading “David Attenborough: Stop Feeding Third World Nations to Reduce Population”

White House Dossier – by Keith Koffler

I don’t know, mainly I’m putting this up because it was amusing and I thought you’d enjoy it. But there is a larger point.

The news business has sunk to an abysmal depth. Nobody has any money, competition is fierce, and corners are cut everywhere you can find them. “Reputable” news organizations take one source and run a major story on the information as if they were sure it was fact. The old news saying – If your mother says she loves you, check it out, is a quaint anachronism.  Continue reading “Jon Stewart Roasts CNN’s Navy Yard Coverage”

Post image for Financial Empire and the global debtors’ prisonRoar Mag – by Jerome Roos

Financial Empire may have reduced us all to debt prisoners, but we can still become the social protagonists of history’s greatest-ever prison break.

Let there be no doubt about it: we live in the era of Financial Empire. Unlike the military conquests that drove the territorial expansions of the empires of old, contemporary Financial Empire consists not in the highly visible exercise of a Big Stick ideology (although military imperialism undoubtedly continues today), but rather takes the shape of an Invisible Hand.

The President of Brazil, Dilma Rousseff announces publicly the creation of a world internet system INDEPENDENT from US and Britain ( the “US-centric internet”).

Not many understand that, while the immediate trigger for the decision (coupled with the cancellation of a summit with the US president) was the revelations on NSA spying, the reason why Rousseff can take such a historic step is that the alternative infrastructure: The BRICS cable from Vladivostock, Russia  to Shantou, China to Chennai, India  to Cape Town, South Africa  to Fortaleza, Brazil,  is being built and it’s, actually, in its final phase of implementation.   Continue reading “The BRICS ‘independent internet” Cable.in Defiance of the “uS-Centric internet””

A new study lead by Argentinean researchers and published in the Journal of Environmental Science and Health titled, “Influence of herbicide glyphosate on growth and aflatoxin B1 production by Aspergillus section Flavi strains isolated from soil on in vitro assay,”[1] adds to an increasing body of research indicating that glyphosate (aka Roundup), the primary herbicide used in GM agriculture, is seriously undermining the quality of our global food supply, and may help to explain recent observations that GM corn heavy markets, such as the U.S., have a significant aflatoxin problem.[2]   Continue reading “Study Links Roundup ‘Weedkiller’ To Overgrowth of Deadly Fungal Toxins”

WEB Notes: The calls for peace and global government are continuing to come forth. The world was on the edge of a major war in Syria just weeks ago. This is a part of the end times deception. There will be no peace though it eventually will come very close (1 Thes. 5:3).
