If we jump for a minute out of the ever-flowing river of the news, we might realize our being deep inside the Fourth World War.

It started in 1989 with the fall of Berlin Wall that marked the end of the Third one, aka the Cold War. The last chapter of WW4 is obviously the failed attempt to expel Russia from Crimea, but up to now its more symbolic stage remains the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia that started on March 24, 1999, exactly 15 years ago. It was a war against Slobodan Milosevic, but also a war to shift eastward NATO influence and boundaries.   Continue reading “NATO bombing of Yugoslavia: Symbolic stage of Current World War”

The superintendent of Springfield Public Schools told 970 WMAY on Monday that he doesn’t plan to remove a workbook that contains an outrageous definition of the Second Amendment, despite the outrage it has generated among parents.

The workbook, currently being utilized by seventh-graders at Grant Middle School in Springfield, Ill., teaches students that the Second Amendment gives people the “right to certain weapons, providing that they register them and they have not been in prison.”   Continue reading “Listen to Superintendent Explain Why He Refuses to Remove Workbook With Outrageous Definition of Second Amendment”

Truth Revolt – by Trey Sanchez 

A mother of a first-grader in Louisiana posted a photo online showing a “psycho-social checklist” sent home from school that asks if her child has “sexual identity issues.”

The checklist that Central Community School System in Baton Rouge, La. sent home asks parents to complete the form and check off any “stressors” their child may have or experienced. It states:   Continue reading “Schoolchildren’s ‘Psycho-Social Checklist’ Asks First-Grader’s ‘Sexual Identity Issues’”

Michele Obama’s Mirror

We’ve put on a full court press: a White House generated ad campaign to get the young invincibles – who we need more than they need us – to sign up for Obamacare before the March 31 deadline. So we tried everything: PJ Boy, a dunking FLOTUS, Mom dancers, twerking accidents, Muppet accidents…the list goes on and on – butt stops with…cat GIFs? Cat GIFs, for crying outloud?

Great, just what we need around here: cat house and pussy jokes to go along with the bathhouse innuendos.   Continue reading “WTF? LOL Cats Deployed to Help Us #GetCovered”

Who What Why – by Russ Baker

An exclusive WhoWhatWhy investigation has found serious factual inconsistencies in accounts provided by the only witness to the alleged confession of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects.

Why does this matter? Because this witness is the sole source for the entire publicly accepted narrative of who was behind the bombing and its aftermath—and why these events occurred.    Continue reading “Boston Bomber Carjacking Unravels. Part 1 of 2”

Who What Why – by Russ Baker

In part I, we reported significant discrepancies in the story of the key witness in the Boston Marathon bombing-MIT police officer killing. These discrepancies cast doubt on his credibility—and therefore on the entire public narrative around those events.

We have been told that the witness was carjacked by the brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and that Tamerlan confessed to him their guilt in both crimes.    Continue reading “Something Dead Wrong Here: Investigating the Mysterious and Central Character, “Danny.” Part 2 of 2”

The move by international payment systems Visa and MasterCard to block their use in Russia has unnerved some Russian businesses. Meanwhile, Moscow says its own national payment system may become fully operative within months.

Last week MasterCard and Visa stopped servicing some Russian banks, which shows the Russian market remains the monopoly of international operators.   Continue reading “Russia to launch its payment system in months, as disruption fears mount”

When someone is assigned to hospice, it means that he or she has six months or less to live. All medical interventions are canceled, especially since by that time the patient is completely worn out from orthodox treatments and can’t take anymore. While in hospice, the main treatment is morphine to reduce pain, that’s it. For an older person dying of cancer to leave hospice under his own power is somewhat of a miracle, but that is exactly what at least 2 people have done thanks to the healing powers of cannabis.   Continue reading “Older Terminal Cancer Patients Walk Away from Hospice with Cannabis Oil and More”

Zero Hedge- by Tyler Durden

With the world particularly sensitive to any news involving stray and/or missing Boeing 777 airplanes, especially if said massive stray airplane is heading toward the Nuclear security summit taking place at the Hague, it is no surprise that the news which appeared about an hour ago that two Dutch F-16s were scrambled to intercept a unresponsive Boeing 777 in Dutch airspace, received such a prompt response.   Continue reading “Two Dutch F-16s Scrambled To Intercept Unidentified Boeing 777”

Japan agreed to transfer a share of its highly enriched uranium and weapons grade plutonium stockpiles to the US as part of the global effort to secure nuclear materials. Other nations are also urged to deposit excess nuclear materials in the US.

On the eve of the two-day Nuclear Security Summit in The Hague, US and Japanese leaders arranged a deal on “final disposition” in the US of well over 300 kilograms of weapons grade plutonium and an unspecified quantity of highly enriched uranium (HEU) that will be “sent to a secure facility and fully converted into less sensitive forms.”   Continue reading “Japan prepares to ship nuclear materials to the US”

It seems the words of Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warning that “the world stands on the brink of conflict, the consequences of which are not foreseen… Not everyone in Europe is aware of this situation,” are a little more real than some (US equity buyers) might suspect. As The Week’s Crispin Black reports, at least 7,000 Polish workers in Europe have received call-up papers as army reservists in the last few weeks. Polish authorities dismiss it as “routine” but the men note this has never happened before.   Continue reading “Poland Is Quietly Mobilizing Its Army Reservists”

President Barack Obama is seeking to abolish two highly successful missile programs that experts say have helped the U.S. Navy maintain military superiority for the past several decades.

The Tomahawk missile program—known as “the world’s most advanced cruise missile”—is set to be cut by $128 million under Obama’s fiscal year 2015 budget proposal and completely eliminated by fiscal year 2016, according to budget documents released by the Navy.   Continue reading “Obama to Kill Tomahawk, Hellfire Missile Programs”
