As I have written on a number of occasions, one of the hallmarks of a false flag attack is the presence of a military drill occurring shortly before or after the event in question. More so, the presence of a military drill occurring during the actual event is even more of a hallmark of the potential for the event to have been orchestrated by a national government for the purpose of using the incident in question both as propaganda and the justification for a pre-existing agenda.

The story could set the stage for a western-style soap opera.
“I call it ‘as the sagebrush burns,’” said Erin Maupin of the long and storied history involving the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), special interest groups and the cattle ranchers on the Steens Mountain of Oregon.
The latest scene involved two ranchers being sentenced to five years in federal prison for inadvertantly burning about 140 acres of BLM rangeland in two separate fires, years ago. That is an area big enough to feed about three cow-calf pairs for a year in that neck of the woods.

Telecom giant Comcast was hacked but it refuses to take the blame. The company is being forced to reset passwords for about 200,000 customers after revelations that account information was leaked and put up for sale on the black market.
Over the weekend, the Dark Web marketplace offered up a list of 590,000 Comcast e-mail addresses and passwords. Also known as the Deep Web, the Dark Web is a slew of sites that run on darknets that require specific software or special access to reach. Hackers often use the Dark Web to sell information obtained illegally. Continue reading “590K Comcast User Passwords Stolen, Company Blames Customers”

On Saturday, we noted with great irony, that just a day after Obama – with great pomp and even more preaching – killed the Keystone XL pipeline, that a freight train with 32 cars, belonging to Warren Buffett’s BNSF, had derailed north of Alma, Wisconsin prompting several road closures and a voluntary evacuation of the affected area.

In what is a true milestone for the US, shifting demographics have led to a traditionally Polish-Catholic city in Michigan electing ‘the first-ever’ Muslim-majority council in America’s history.
The city of Hamtramck held a recent election, with a total of six candidates vying for three seats. The top three vote-winners were all Muslim. The result is now a six-member council, with four of the members Muslims. Two of the councilors were incumbent and one seat occupied by a Muslim was not up for re-election.

Canada’s new government has given the city of Montreal the go-ahead for its plans to dump billions of liters of untreated sewage into the St. Lawrence River. The city says it may damage the environment, but the government says the alternatives are worse.
The dump would last for about a week that is needed to make critical repairs to the city’s waste-water system. Over that time an estimated 7.5 billion liters of contaminated fluid will be discharged.

MARKSVILLE, La. (AP) — A Louisiana man lay wounded in the hospital as his 6-year-old son was laid to rest, both victims of a shooting authorities say was carried out by two law enforcement officers who now face charges.

Do federal agents need a license to kill in order to protect us? Unfortunately, federal judges are giving law enforcement agents blanket immunity when they shoot Americans while the agents are on the job. It would be difficult to imagine a greater violation of equal rights under the law or a bigger mockery of due process. Continue reading “End federal agents’ license to kill – Local police officers should not be able to claim ‘federal’ immunity from prosecution.”
