Lew Rockwell – by Joel Poindexter

There’s really no other word that would accurately describe the behavior of the many agencies that stormed through Boston and its suburbs this week. Thousands of State and local police, sheriff’s deputies, FBI SWAT employees, Homeland Security Shock Troops, and National Guard soldiers conducted a massive search – virtually none of it in compliance with the 4th Amendment – in search of a single teenager. They practically ordered an entire city “locked down” and were presumably prepared to begin arresting residents who refused to comply with what amounted to martial law.   Continue reading “Totalitarian”

The following bulletin was released in March by the FBI Terrorist Explosive Device Analytical Center.  The bulletin was first reported on and made public by a writer for Examiner.com who published low quality images of the document.  This version of the bulletin is significantly higher quality and contains renderable text making it easier to read and refer to.   Continue reading “FBI Bulletin: Potential Use of Exploding Targets as Explosives in IEDs”

The incident, which is being investigated by the FBI and local police authorities, occurred just before 2 a.m. Sunday. TVA spokesman Jim Hopson said the gunman has not been apprehended.   Continue reading “FBI investigating shooting incident at Tennessee nuclear power plant”

Take a few minutes to read this: After Senate setback, Obama quietly moving forward with gun regulation.

Zero Hedge -by Tyler Durden

The liquidity tsunami that started in September of 2012 in the Marriner Eccles building and continued with the BOJ’s own epic QEasing expansion three weeks ago, has so far provided the impetus for Europe to kick the can of its inevitable dissolution for a few more months, yet slowly but surely the market is starting to read through the artificial levels implied by Italian and Spanish bonds, driven by recycled ECB funding via bank and repo conduits and of course Japanese carry cash, and rumblings of a return to crisis conditions are back.   Continue reading “Merkel To Europe: “Prepare To Cede Sovereignty””

Syrian government forces have used chemical weapons – probably nerve gas – in their fight against rebels trying to force out President Bashar al-Assad, the Israeli military’s top intelligence analyst said on Tuesday.

Brigadier-General Itai Brun made the comments at a Tel Aviv security conference a day after U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said on a visit to Israel that U.S. intelligence agencies were still assessing whether such weapons had been employed.   Continue reading “Propaganda Alerta: Israel says Syria used chemical arms, probably nerve gas”

Iran has strongly rejected a recent claim by the Canadian government over alleged links between the suspects in a foiled terrorist attack in Canada and Tehran.

Canada said on Monday that its police had arrested two ‘foreign nationals’ who were planning to derail a VIA passenger train traveling between Toronto and New York, claiming that the suspects had links to “al-Qaeda elements inside Iran.”    Continue reading “Iran rejects Canada’s claim about terror suspects’s links”

House Bill 10-289, the ‘Pressure Cooker Prevention of Crime and Protection of Children Act of 2013’ (PCPCPCA) has already gained 391 sponsors spanning both of the two sides of the political spectrum, the Democrats and the Republicans.   Continue reading “Bill To Regulate Pressure Cookers Gaining Steam”

As Boston and U.S. security agencies congratulate themselves over the apparent neutralization of a pair of Chechens that [allegedly] bombed the Boston Marathon, troubling questions are beginning to arise.

First and foremost is, why a pair of Chechens, born in the former Soviet republic of Kyrgyzstan, apparently committed the attack?   Continue reading “Boston Marathon Attacks, Chechnya and Oil – the Hidden U.S. Connection”

In the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Monday the country’s interpretation of the Constitution will “have to change” to allow for greater security to stave off future attacks.

“The people who are worried about privacy have a legitimate worry,” Mr. Bloomberg said during a press conference in Midtown. “But we live in a complex word where you’re going to have to have a level of security greater than you did back in the olden days, if you will. And our laws and our interpretation of the Constitution, I think, have to change.”  Continue reading “Bloomberg Says Interpretation of Constitution Will ‘Have to Change’ After Boston Bombing”

Captain’s Journal – by Herschel Smith

Max Velocity, Mountain Guerrilla and American Mercenary all have great posts about gear, rucksacks and living in the field (and MV has a followup article here).  These men all know a generous amount about their subject and I won’t try either to repeat their views here or to disagree with any of it.  However, I had considered writing about my own experiences in the field (I have spent a copious amount of time in the field) and landed on an option where I simply provide a running list of things I do and don’t like (and do or don’t advocate).  The reader can weigh in with his own observations.   Continue reading “Living In The Field”

PHYSICAL DEMAND OFF THE CHARTS!

We are in the midst of experiencing two of the most radical weeks in the history of the precious metals markets.  Paper prices for gold and silver, those prices determined by the fraudulently managed commodities exchanges (namely the COMEX and the London Bullion Marketing Association – LBMA) and regulated by the equally corrupt and complicit Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), have been driven into the basement.   Continue reading “Massive Run on Gold and Silver”

I’m not a conspiracy-minded person, but something definitely stinks about this whole Boston Marathon bombing story.

From what we’re reading about the case, the FBI had for two years been investigating Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the 26-year-old older brother killed during a shootout between police and the two brothers, Tamerlan and 19-year-old Dzhokhar. They had interviewed Tamerlan in his home, warned him they were watching what he ate, what he looked at on his computer, etc. They knew he had gone to Dagestan and Chechnya.   Continue reading “Something’s Rotten in Boston Who’s Investigating the FBI Investigators?”

Head rabbi of the Israeli military Brigadier General Rafi Peretz believes non-Jews should not have equal rights with the Jews in Israel.

The rabbi said the idea of giving non-Jews equal rights in Israel goes against the principles of the Torah and government representatives have no authority to go against the Torah’s teachings.    Continue reading “Jews, gentiles not equals in Israel”

UPDATE 4/22/13:  Al-Harbi, Osama bin-Laden’s son who was 50 feet from the bombing of the Boston Marathon, was tagged 3-B status – terrorist. Yet a student visa was granted after terrorist status was assigned to him. The student visa was for Findlay, Ohio. He has been in Boston for six months. Interesting, what the hell was he doing in Boston for the past 6 months when he was supposed to be in Findlay, Ohio???   – N.P.Contompasis    Continue reading “That Detained Saudi “Student” named Al-Harbi, is Actually Osama Bin Laden’s Son, Hamza Bin Laden”

Not too many people know that I personally investigated the Kennedy assassination. I was enabled to do that because my job with Circus Vargas allowed me to travel the U.S. and elsewhere extensively, and I was always connected to law enforcement agencies in one way or the other during that time as a private contractor doing drug interdiction work on the side.

Some of Lee Harvey Oswald’s last publicly recorded words in front of the camera were, “I am just a patsy”. Let me ask you something. You’ve probably seen about a gazillion reality cop shows by now, and when was the last time you heard a suspect tell a cop, “I am just a patsy”?   Continue reading “Worden: I am Just a Patsy”

High blood pressure (BP) or hypertension is considered a high risk factor for heart attacks and strokes as well as kidney failure. Many have high BP, but most don’t know as it doesn’t usually have its own symptoms.

Blood pressure readings are in two sets of numbers. The top number, systolic pressure, indicates pressure on the artery walls when the heart beats. The lower number, diastolic pressure, shows the pressure on artery walls between heart beats.   Continue reading “Nine foods that lower blood pressure”

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” 238 years ago on April 19, 1775, colonists sent the British troops fleeing back to Boston. The troops engaged the colonists in battle at Lexington and Concord, in what now is characterized as “the shot heard round the world.”   Continue reading “The 2nd Amendment Going Forward”
