What is all the US blustering rhetoric hiding?Veterans Today – by Stephen Lendman

On February 27, 2014, they announced their so-called “Ukrainian government of people’s trust.”

It includes a rogue’s gallery of societal misfits. Many are militant fascists. They’re thugs. They’re criminals.

They’re illegitimate putschists. They’re xenophobic, hate-mongering, ultranationalist anti-Semites. Combined they represent mob rule.   Continue reading “Meet Obama’s New Ukrainian Friends”

Washington, enabled by its compliant but stupid NATO puppets, is pushing the Ukrainian situation closer to war.

German Chancellor Merkel has failed her country, Europe, and world peace. Germany is the strength of the EU and NATO. Had Merkel said “No” to sanctions on Russia, that would have been the end of the crisis that Washington is brewing, a crisis unlikely to be ended short of war.   Continue reading “The Failure Of German Leadership – Merkel Whores For Washington”

New York State is hurtling at lightning speed towards the inevitable destruction that is the fascist nanny state.

They have long been one of the worst offenders of our rights in the nation, and in recent days they have begun taking their attacks on liberty to a whole new level. Whether it was Mayor Bloomberg’s assault on the evil MSG and the deadly Big Gulp, or Governor Cuomo’s pronouncement that conservatives, the religious, and anyone who believed they had rights enumerated in the Constitution should stay out of New York. New York had also set its sights on gun owners by passing the SAFE Act which would have all but guaranteed that lawful gun owning citizens would now become criminals – simply for exercising their guaranteed Second Amendment right.   Continue reading “Man Charged with Manslaughter for Shooting Armed Robber”

ImmigrationUSA Today – by Alan Gomez

President Obama has ordered the Department of Homeland Security to conduct a system-wide review of the way it enforces the nation’s immigration laws, asking the department “to see how it can conduct enforcement more humanely within the confines of the law,” according to a White House statement.

The order comes at a critical time for the president, who continues pushing Congress to pass a comprehensive overhaul of the nation’s immigration laws, but is facing increased pressure from immigration advocates who say he should halt all deportations until a new law is passed.   Continue reading “Obama wants deportation handled ‘more humanely’”

For a short time, it appeared that Connecticut police officers might go door to door to confiscate guns from gun owners who’d tried to register their now-illegal firearms after the filing deadline.

But then it was discovered that more than 68% of Connecticut cops have failed to comply with the new gun registration laws that went into effect early this year.   Continue reading “68% of Connecticut Cops Have Failed to Register Firearms According to the New Law”

(Video, Source: Health Impact News) – Health Impact News Editor Comments: The pro-Pharma mainstream media would like everyone to believe that doctors and “scientists” all agree that vaccines are safe and effective, and that dissenters are uneducated or uninformed parents.

Not true.  Doctors and scientists who dare to speak out against the status quo, putting their own careers in jeopardy for telling the other side of the story, are of course few, and clearly in the minority. But that does not mean they do not exist. It just means they are fewer in number, because they value truth and the health and well-being of the public more than financial connections to the pharmaceutical industry.   Continue reading “Doctors Against Vaccines: The Other Side of the Story is Not Being Told”

Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 is the latest example of a very rare event in aviation: a plane that vanishes.

With radar, radio traffic and other technology, planes that crash are usually found quickly. But sometimes searches can take days or weeks if the plane disappears over open ocean or remote and rugged land areas.

Since the dawn of the jet age in 1958, here are some other notable disappearances (not all were jets):   Continue reading “Mystery of missing jet recalls past disappearances”
