Last December, when Adam Lanza stormed into the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, with a rifle and killed twenty children and six adult staff members, the United States found itself immersed in debates about gun control. Another flash point occurred this July, when George Zimmerman, who saw himself as a guardian of his community, was exonerated in the killing of an unarmed black teenager, Trayvon Martin, in Florida.

The gun debate was refreshed in September by the shooting deaths of twelve people at the Washington Navy Yard, apparently at the hands of an IT contractor who was mentally ill.   Continue reading “Up in Arms”

Throughout history, whenever a dictator came to power, the first thing such infamous leaders did was to purge the military.

Zionist mega donor Sheldon Adelson once said, “Not all Islamists [Muslims] are terrorists, but all terrorists are Islamists [Muslim].” Not only are 94% of all terrorist attacks on US soil committed by non-Muslims, but Jews like Sheldon Adelson, are actually responsible for more terrorist attacks than Muslims. That’s right, according to the FBI, Jews were responsible for 7% of terrorist attacks on American soil while Muslims were only responsible for 6%.    Continue reading “Which Race Is Most Likely To Be A Terrorist?

The investor-state dispute system, whereby foreign investors can sue the host-country government in an international tribunal, is one of the issues being negotiated in the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement.

In the public debate surrounding the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA), an issue that seems to stand out is the investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) system.

A jealous Bronx NYPD detective expects to remain on the job after copping a plea on Friday to shelling out more than $4,000 to hack into department email accounts, so he could check whether one of his fellow officers was sleeping with his baby mama.

Edwin Vargas, 42, told Manhattan federal Judge Kevin Castel that from April 2010 to May 2012 he paid a Los Angeles company specializing in email hacking to supply him with personal log-in credentials – such as passwords and user names — to help spy on his ex-lover.   Continue reading “Jealous cop admits to hacking NYPD to spy on ex”
