A judge has invalidated Mayor Bloomberg’s controversial plan to ban large sugary drinks from restaurants and other eateries, one day before the new law was to take effect.

State Supreme Court Justice Milton Tingling in Manhattan ruled the new regulation was “arbitrary and capricious” and declared it invalid, after several soda and business groups had sued the city challenging the ban.

Just days after announcing a 5-year, $4.5 million contract with Heckler & Koch, the Department of Homeland Security has released details of an identical agreement with weapons manufacturer Sig Sauer, as Forbes publishes an article calling for a “national conversation” about the DHS arms build-up that has been dismissed by the media as a conspiracy theory.

On Saturday night, two undercover police officers shot and killed 16-year-old Kimani Gray. According to the police account, the officers approached Gray when he “adjusted his waistband in what the police describe as a suspicious manner.” When the police asked him to “show his hands,” they claim Gray turned around and pointed a gun at the officers, who fired 11 rounds. The weapon police say belonged to Gray was not fired. Continue reading “Undercover Cops Shoot and Kill a 16 Year-Old Boy in New York City”

LOS ANGELES –  An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 5.1 has shaken a wide area of Southern California.

The U.S. Geological Survey’s automated monitoring system places the epicenter in the desert near Anza, about 100 miles southeast of Los Angeles.

The late morning quake was felt sharply in the local area. It was also felt in downtown Los Angeles and in Orange County. Continue reading “Earthquake shakes wide area of Southern California”

Today is the second anniversary of the Fukushima disaster and the true scale of its effect upon the United States and indeed the world can only be gauged by the extent of the cover up.  Looking at the situation logically and considering the fact that agencies like the EPA would like to have a thermometer up the backside of every person around the world under the guise of monitoring climate change, one would think that we would have been seeing daily reports as to the spread of the contamination from Fukushima through the air, ocean currents, and residual contact with items coming out of Japan.

We have heard of no punishment for those responsible for the failures at the plant following the earthquake and tsunami, which goes to show us once again that the top criminals around the planet have gained such power that they have become literally untouchable.

Well, the sequester was enacted, seemingly without notice or effect upon the life of the average American.  I guess it wasn’t really any big deal. I guess the propaganda campaign was a success.  I have harped on the fact that $85 billion in austerity cuts is indeed a minute amount in comparison to the trillions being given over to the international elitist bankers, year after year.

So, what was the idea here?  Predict doom and gloom that you know is a farce with the controlled opposition declaring that the austerity is actually a good thing.  And then, once the cuts have gone through, put forth a full blown propaganda campaign that says, “The economy has improved drastically since the sequester” with the full knowledge that a measly ass $85 billion is no more going to make us than break us, with the whole agenda being to get the people to embrace austerity as a positive and good thing, while completely dismissing the fact that austerity is a socialist procedure that can only be implemented in a socialist country under a socialist government.

It has been ten years since the United States invaded Iraq for the sole purpose of changing that country’s regime and turning its resources over to the Zionist state of Israel.  We all saw the pictures of Bagdad as the United States opened up with weapons of mass destruction, citing the lie of a nuclear threat as just cause to bomb what was the most modern country in the Middle East back to the Stone Age.

122,000 innocent men, women, and children murdered and look at the country today – car bombings, secular murders, pain, and fear.  Don’t forget that once the lie of the weapons of mass destruction was revealed, the mission statement was changed to “We are freeing the people of Iraq so that they might know peace and happiness under democracy.”  Continue reading “World War III, Them, You, and Me”

Washington DC – -(Ammoland.com)- On March 5 2013, gun control proponent Mark Kelly bought an “assault rifle” and a semi-automatic handgun at Diamondback Police Supply, Tucson, AZ.

On March 6, he attended a Tucson rally with his wife, former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, to ”call for tougher gun-control laws.” Continue reading “Mark Kelly Attended Gun Control Rally Day After Buying AR-15”

Energy’s Latest Battleground: Fracking For Uranium

UEC’s process doesn’t take place 2 miles down. Rather, it’s dissolving uranium from just 400 feet to 800 feet down–not only from the same depths as groundwater but from the very same layers of porous rock that hold it. “By design it’s much worse than fracking,” says Houston attorney Jim Blackburn, who is suing UEC on behalf of residents near the company’s new project in Goliad, Tex. “This is intentional contamination of a water aquifer liberating not only uranium but other elements that were bound up with the sand. We know this process will contaminate groundwater; that’s the whole point of it.” Continue reading “Fracking for Uranium to start in U.S. — We’re “doing the environment a favor””

Take a look around any coffee shop, airport, hotel or library, and you’ll quickly notice that Public WiFi hotpots have become the rule, not the exception. See all those people tapping away on their smart phone, tablet or laptop in a one-man/woman quest to check their email, pay their bills, tweet, update their status and so on? They’re your proof. In 2011, the number of WiFi hotspots reached 1.3 million worldwide. By 2015, WiFi users will be able to connect to 5.8 million hotspots, according to a report commissioned by the Wireless Broadband Alliance.

There is a new trend in the ‘war on terror’ by the real world terror of the US, Israeli and Western governments, and it is called ‘bomb them just in case’.

With the looming threat of an attack on ‘innocent’ Iran, it is the same premise of ‘bomb them just in case’. This tactic is no different than shooting someone ‘just in case’ they get a gun and kill you, even though they have never exhibited any aggression or threat of aggression towards you, or indeed never possessed a gun in the past.

Well over 10,000 police will take part in securing the three-day visit next week by US President Barack Obama, National Police Spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said Monday.

Rosenfeld said the security preparations are the biggest of their kind since then-US President George W. Bush visited in 2008. Continue reading “An army of 10,000 Israeli police prepare for Obama visit”

Genetically modified organisms have permeated much of the crop industry, absolutely infesting the processed food market, but are many ‘health’ supplements free from the presence of GMOs? As it turns out, major supplement producers actually will openly admit that they derive many of their formulas from GMO crops — consumers just aren’t really paying attention!

There is and has been for some time a propaganda war designed to marginalize and demonize the liberty movement and those who advocate for a government that is limited by the Constitution and rule of law. Last week, that war hit high gear, as it became apparent that rational discussion about the role of government is no longer possible — in Washington or elsewhere.

The hate group I call the Southern Preposterous Lie Center (read about it here,here and here) fired its salvo with its spring non-Intelligence Report, “The Year in Hate & Extremism.” The magazine is yet another regurgitation of the SPLC’s regular quarterly vomit used to divest widows, simpletons and progressives of their wealth so Morris Dees and his socialist partners can live the high life and work from swanky office space in downtown Montgomery, Ala.

With North Korea rattling its sabers and making threats against the United States – I wondered….“Could Red Dawn really happen?”  For those who may not know what I refer the remake of the 80′s classic Red Dawn features an EMP riddled north-western United States being invaded by North Korea.

I have watched the movie several times and from what I could tell there was some kind of preliminary strike which killed the power to much of the West Coast – then several hours later North Korean bombers and planes arrived in the state of Washington. Troops parachuted to the ground and began taking control of areas. It appears there is a minimal US military response as local military bases, also without power, were slow to react. With no phone service, with no method for people to communicate – chaos soon followed as people panic to understand what is happening. Within a short time the vast majority of the population is obedient to the invaders – except for a small group of young people who escaped into the countryside early on during the invasion.

Few presidents in modern times have been as interested in gun control as Richard Nixon, of all people. He proposed ridding the market of Saturday night specials, contemplated banning handguns altogether and refused to pander to gun owners by feigning interest in their weapons.

Several previously unreported Oval Office recordings and White House memos from the Nixon years show a conservative president who at times appeared willing to take on the National Rifle Association, a powerful gun lobby then as now, even as his aides worried about the political ramifications.

The North Korean rhetoric appears to be in response to threatened United Nations sanctions that may be put in place following the Feb. 12 North Korean test of a nuclear weapon, DOD officials said last week.   Continue reading “North Korea Threatens Nuclear War As U.S. And South Korea Begin Military Exercise”

On December 7, 1941, 353 Japanese aircraft delivered a shocking blow to a complacent United States. The losses at Pearl Harbor were heavy, but heavier still was the loss of that sense of distance that had come with the American banishment of European empires from the hemisphere.

Japan had woken a giant and the events of that day led to a changed foreign policy and a changed nation. The impact of that attack would lead the United States to becoming a world power with bases around the world ready to meet any attack. The unspoken element of American foreign policy after that day was to prevent another Pearl Harbor from taking place. Continue reading “When Enemies Infiltrated the White House”

GABD, Iran — The presidents of Pakistan and Iran on Monday pushed ahead with a controversial pipeline to bring natural gas from Iran despite American opposition to the project, with both attending a ceremony marking the beginning of construction of the Pakistani side of the pipeline.

The Iran-Pakistan pipeline is intended to help Pakistan overcome its mushrooming energy needs at a time when the country is facing increased blackouts and energy shortages. Continue reading “Pakistan leader breaks ground on Iran pipeline”
