The situation in Syria is still in focus of the world media. Another U.S.-led “humanitarian intervention” may be unleashed soon. The Pentagon announced that it is ready to attack Syria in order to punish Bashar al-Assad and Syrian army for the alleged use of chemical weapons against the civilians.

Meanwhile, the new evidence of the U.S. intelligence being involved in chemical attack near Damascus on August 21, 2013 has been leaked to Internet.   Continue reading “U.S. Military Intelligence Involved in Chemical Attack in Syria”

Senator Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican and a fierce opponent of military action in Syria, will filibuster any effort to bring an authorization of military force to a quick vote in the Senate, a Paul aide confirmed Wednesday.

The decision likely will scramble the Senate schedule and could delay any vote of the Senate for days. House leaders want the Senate to move first to build momentum. But for the Senate to move quickly, the majority leader, Harry Reid of Nevada, would need unanimous consent at least to bring the authorization of force to the Senate floor.   Continue reading “Paul Expected to Filibuster Syria Resolution”

The full Senate is expected to vote on the measure next week.    Continue reading “Senate panel votes to authorize Syria strike”

BEIJING — Authorities have scooped up around 100,000 kilograms (220,000 pounds) of dead fish they say were poisoned by ammonia from a chemical plant, environmental officials and state media said Wednesday, in a reminder of the pollution plaguing the country.

The Hubei province environmental protection department, notified of the piles of dead fish in central China’s Fuhe River on Monday, pointed the finger at local company Hubei Shuanghuan Science and Technology Stock Co. Officials said sampling of its drain outlet showed that ammonia density far exceeded the national standard. The company said it wasn’t going to immediately comment.   Continue reading “220,000 Pounds Of Poisoned Dead Fish Scooped Up In China In Reminder Of Pollution Plaguing Country”

Only his hands and iPhone were visible.   Continue reading “McCain caught playing poker on smart phone during debate for Syrian war”

The on-going situation with Syria is showing the entire world that the U.S. government is under the control of criminally insane liars. The international community has largely rejected any sort of military intervention in Syria because of alleged chemical weapons use but this has not stopped the Obama regime from moving forward with their plans to strike.   Continue reading “Obama And Washington’s Gaggle Of Zionist Psychopaths Continue Push To Engage In Blatant War Crimes Against Syria”

If you are like me, these past months, if not these past few years, you have been constantly asking yourself the question of “Why are we training Russian troops in the U.S. under the guise of the UN when we are supposed to be fighting against them in the Middle East”? It makes ZERO sense. And no one has been able to acknowledge it or answer it or maybe they are just too distracted with other immediate propaganda and scandals that are happening within our government and around the world.

I, for one, like to look at all sides and try to come up with a bigger picture much like the psychopaths in our government try to do. They want you to focus so much on one thing, that you fail to grasp how it applies to everything else overall.   Continue reading “What’s the deal with Russia and why it is IMPERATIVE that we reject the UN and any International Assistance”

With the economic depression that the United States had felt itself in one could see that job losses had led to lowered city tax revenues.  What had been the result?  Many cities turned to the police as revenue generators ordered to fill a daily ticket quota or face threats of layoff or other miseries should they not choose to act as ordered.    Continue reading “A Tale of Two City Revenue Scams EXPOSED”

A senior Syrian opposition figure warned Washington that all its interests in the region will be attacked by battalions of suicide bombers formed by the Syrian opposition forces if it dares to attack Syria, stressing that homeland is more important to the dissidents than opposition to the government.

“Although, we are among the Syrian government’s opposition forces, we assume our homeland’s interests to be more important than any other interest and therefore, we have formed a number of battalions to conduct suicide operations and target the US interests in the Middle-East,” Secretary-General of al-Shabab Party Mahir Marhaj told FNA on Saturday.   Continue reading “Syrian Opposition Vows to Join Ranks with Assad if US Attacks Syria”

The Department of Agriculture on Friday approved four Chinese poultry processors to begin shipping a limited amount of meat to the United States, a move that is likely to add to the debate over food imports.

Initially, the companies will be allowed to export only cooked poultry products from birds raised in the United States and Canada. But critics predicted that the government would eventually expand the rules, so that chickens and turkeys bred in China could end up in the American market.   Continue reading “Chinese Chicken Processors Are Cleared to Ship to U.S., Will Not Require Country-of-Origin Labeling”
