Secretary of State John Kerry plans to sign a controversial U.N. treaty on arms regulation on Wednesday, a senior State Department official told Fox News — despite warnings from lawmakers that the Senate will not ratify the agreement.

A State official said the treaty would “reduce the risk that international transfers of conventional arms will be used to carry out the world’s worst crimes,” while protecting gun rights.    Continue reading “Kerry to sign UN arms treaty, despite senators’ opposition”

I have spent time with mass killers, warlords and death squad leaders as a reporter in Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. Some are psychopaths who relish acts of sadism, torture and murder. But others, maybe most, see killing as a job, a profession, good for their careers and status. They enjoy playing God. They revel in the hypermasculine world of force where theft and rape are perks. They proudly refine the techniques of murder to snuff out one life after another, largely numb to the terror and cruelty they inflict. And, when they are not killing, they can sometimes be disarmingly charming and gracious. Some are decent fathers and sentimental with their wives and mistresses. Some dote on their pets.   Continue reading “The Act of Killing”

I’m still working at trying to get the next set of NSA stories published. That, combined with a rapidly approaching book deadline, will make non-NSA-article postings difficult for the next couple of weeks. Until then, here are a few items to note regarding a point I have often tried to make: namely, one of the most overlooked aspects of the NSA reporting in the US has been just how global of a story this has become:

(1) Last week it was revealed that Belgium’s largest telecom, Belgacom, was the victim of a massive hacking attack which systematically compromised its system for as long as two years. Media outlets suspected that the NSA was behind it, and the country’s Prime Minister condemned the attack as a “violation of a public company’s integrity.”   Continue reading “Various items: NSA stories around the world”

Lindsey Williams has finally said when his friend in the elite ranks of the oil industry told him the dollar will collapse. He was told Americans must be totally enslaved before they can let the dollar collapse. The three major steps are:

1) The Patriot Act and other acts and laws that restricted our historic freedoms.   Continue reading “Video: Lindsey Finally Says When The Dollar Will Collapse.”

Now this is an interesting twist to this saga of lies and betrayals,by the Obama regime. Could this be true? Treason is exactly what he is guilty of. If this False Flag Op was to prevent his arrest, then we have a whole new ball games, ladies and gentlemen.  “In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.” – Franklin D. Roosevelt.  U.S. military police were targeted and killed by Obama in the Washington DC Navy Yard shooting.  Why?  Agents from the U.S. military’s criminal investigation units had uncovered a plot to detonate a nuclear device in the heart of the nation’s capitol as part of an Obama government false flag.  Officials from NCIS (United States Naval Criminal Investigative Service) and the U.S. Office of the Provost (both with field offices inside the Washington DC Navy Yard) had threatened to arrest Obama for planning to attacked Syria without Congressional approval following a planned nuclear detonation false flag in Washington DC.  The Office of the Provost is on the second floor of Building 34, One First Avenue, Charlestown Navy Yard and NCIS is located at 716 SICARD STREET SE, SUITE 2000, WASHINGTON NAVY YARD, DC.    Continue reading “DC Navy Yard Shooting Linked To Obama’s Arrest For Treason??”

FILE - This April 30, 2012 file satellite image provided by GeoEye shows the area around the Yongbyon nuclear facility in Yongbyon, North Korea. The U.S.-Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies said on May 16, 2012, that new satellite imagery showed that North Korea had resumed building work on a reactor after months of inactivity at the site. The GeoEye image shows progress in construction of the containment building for the light-water reactor at the Yongbyon facility, according to the institute, but that the reactor is unlikely to become operational before 2014 or 2015. North Korean scientists have mastered domestic production of essential components for the gas centrifuges needed to build uranium-based nuclear bombs, apparently shutting down one of the few ways outsiders could monitor secretive atomic work, according to evidence gathered by two American experts, The Associated Press reports Monday, Sept. 23, 2013.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean scientists are able to build crucial equipment for uranium-based nuclear bombs on their own, cutting the need for imports that had been one of the few ways outsiders could monitor the country’s secretive atomic work, according to evidence gathered by two American experts.

The experts say material published in North Korean scientific publications and news media shows that Pyongyang is mastering domestic production of essential components for the gas centrifuges needed to make such bombs. The development further complicates long-stalled efforts to stop a nuclear bomb program that Pyongyang has vowed to expand, despite international condemnation.   Continue reading “US experts: NKorea can likely build key nuke parts”

SKorea rejects Boeing, says F-15 not good enoughYahoo News – by Hyung-Jin Kim, Associated Press

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea on Tuesday rejected Boeing Co.’s bid to supply 60 fighter jets in the country’s largest-ever weapons purchase even though it was the sole remaining bidder, and said it would reopen the tender.

Boeing had offered its F-15 Silent Eagle, but South Korean critics have said the warplane lacks state-of-the-art stealth capabilities and cannot effectively cope with North Korea’s increasing nuclear threats.   Continue reading “SKorea rejects Boeing, says F-15 not good enough”

What if our worse fears are confirmed? We’ve been watching as the criminal forces within the U.S. government slowly work their way into a more entrenched position in the machinery of power. What if the reason we have so many of our troops overseas, including our national guardsmen, is to remove them from the scene of an American coup?   Continue reading “FEMA, DHS, 386,000 Foreign Troops Now on U.S. Soil – Obama Issuing Martial Law in October?”

Bono of U2 new world order puppetHang the Bankers

‘Bono’s positioning of the west as the saviour of Africa while failing to ­discuss the harm the G8 nations are doing has undermined campaigns for justice and accountability.’

It was bad enough in 2005. Then, at the G8 summit in Scotland, Bono and Bob Geldof heaped praise on Tony Blair and George Bush, who were still mired in the butchery they had initiated in Iraq. At one point Geldof appeared, literally and figuratively, to be sitting in Tony Blair’s lap. African activists accused them of drowning out a campaign for global justice with a campaign for charity.   Continue reading “Bono exposed as a complete fraud”

Two suspected gunmen and two others have been charged in a shooting that injured 13 people including a 3-year-old boy in a crowded Chicago park, police said Tuesday.

Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy said all four are charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery in Thursday’s attack in Cornell Square Park on the southwest side.

Investigators believe Tabari Young, 22, was the principal gunman and he was charged Tuesday, McCarthy said. Bryon Champ, 21, who was charged a day earlier, was also a shooter, the police superintendent said.   Continue reading “4 Men Charged in Chicago Shooting That Injured 13”

Jim Stone is an extraordinary man. A prodigy from childhood getting shifted from foster home to dysfunctional foster home, at one point confined to a small attic for over a year in which he was not allowed to move for fear of making the boards creak, he nevertheless emerged an educated and well-adjusted adult whose intellectual acumen was sufficient to get him drafted into higher levels of clearance in the National Security Agency (NSA).   Continue reading “A Plea To Help Jim Stone”

[Sunday] the AP reported that President Barack Obama’s promised NSA review panel is channeling the entity that it is supposed to inspect, hiding behind layers of government bureaucracy and obfuscating its work.

The AP states that the review panel is lodged in offices provided by the Director of National Intelligence (DNI). Even more, the DNI is running its media strategy, vetting requests through its own press office. Any whiff of independence that the group might have hoped to engender is now certainly gone.   Continue reading “The NSA Review Panel Is An Even Bigger Joke Than We Previously Thought”

State and local governments have signed contracts that obligate them to keep a certain number of people in jail (with numbers around 96% occupancy) to bolster the profits of privately run prisons, a survey indicates.

Many governments have signed contracts with corporations that contain “prison-bed occupancy guarantee” clauses, a group called In the Public Interest reported. These lockup clauses obligate the governments to keep between 80% and 100% of prison beds full even if the crime rate is falling. Once again, we see a complete disregard of constitutional rights.   Continue reading “Slave Dollars: State Guarantee Private Prisons 96% Occupancy”

Ohio driver's licenseReason – by J.D. Tuccille

Last month came word that Ohio’s sneaky Attorney General Mike DeWine had quietly integrated facial recognition software into the Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway, a state database that includes driver’s license photos. Caught, the AG promised to create a commission to develop protocols for using the technology, tacitly admitting that no safeguards were in place on a system that turned every Ohio driver into a participant in a police line-up—if the system were used as intended—and a potential stalking target by any whack job with a badge. Now comes news that the ranks of potential whack jobs with access to the database are larg, indeed—larger than in any other state, at least.   Continue reading “30,000 Cops Can Access Ohio’s Facial Recognition Database Without Oversight, Says Report”
