Judicial Watch

The U.S. military had a multitude of forces in the region surrounding Libya when terrorists attacked the Special Mission in Benghazi and murdered four Americans, according to an unclassified Navy map obtained by Judicial Watch this week.

The map features the Navy fleet positions in the North Africa Area of Responsibility (AOR) on September 11, 2012, the day Islamic jihadists raided the U.S. Special Mission in Benghazi. Ambassador Christopher Stevens, the first diplomat to be killed overseas in decades, and three other Americans were murdered in the violent ambush.   Continue reading “JW Gets Map of Military Fleet Positions During Benghazi Attack”

The Daily Sheeple – by Lizzie Bennett

We watch the famines that roll by in foreign nations and most of us have a mixture of feelings. Sympathy at the suffering, anger at those nations rulers for not doing more…there’s a gamut of emotions particularly for the children who are powerless to do anything about it. What rarely crosses our minds though is ‘how would I cope?’. The reason this doesn’t enter our heads is that we live in lands of plenty, where food has always been available, and always will be…or will it?   Continue reading “It’s Happening Now: Famine is Coming To A City Near You”

NATICK, Mass. (AP) — They call it the holy grail of ready-to-eat meals for soldiers: a pizza that can stay on the shelf for up to three years and still remain good to eat.

Soldiers have been asking for pizza since lightweight individual field rations — known as meals ready to eat, or MREs — replaced canned food in 1981 for soldiers in combat zones or areas where field kitchens cannot be set up.   Continue reading “Military nears holy grail: Pizza that lasts years”

World Events and the Bible

We often wonder what the Tribulation will be like and considering the hour we find ourselves in, this is an extremely important topic. Ecclesiastes 1:9tells us, “that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” This scripture is stating history repeats itself. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ proclaimed, “Behold, I have foretold you all things,” (Mark 13:23). While 1 Corinthians 10:11 tells us, the accounts in the Bible are “ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.”   Continue reading “As in the Days of Noah and the End Times Flood of Lies”

Willamette Week – by Kate Willson

Multnomah County and Portland police this week suspended a new program that supplied data-gathering ID scanners to Old Town bars after WW raised questions about whether it was legal.

The state-funded program allowed Portland police to equip downtown bars and clubs in recent weeks with high-tech ID scanners that captured patrons’ names, ages and photos for upload to a central database, which police could then access.   Continue reading “Oregon Police Give Nightclubs ID Scanners to Datamine Customers”

Last month, a chemical spill in West Virginia left more than half a million residents unable to use their tap water for drinking, cooking, bathing or cleaning. The incident also forced schools, bars and restaurants to close.

Earl Ray Tomblin, the state’s governor, declared a state of emergency in nine counties following the industrial leak.   Continue reading “FEMA Says NO to West Virginia’s Grant Request for Water Emergency Aid”

While most Americans are being dealt blow after blow of arctic temperatures, and the White House blows $12,000 of tax payer money on the Mrs. Obama, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) recently placed a solicitation for millions of rounds of .45 Auto ammunition, with an upper limit not to exceed $12,000,000 dollars and a minimum of $20,000. Yet, does America really have 12 million dollars to spend on excess ammo?

The FBI is seeking a supplier to supply ammunition based on the following criteria, abbreviated for space:   Continue reading “FBI joins DHS in unusual ammunition purchases”

When the power goes out, my kids tend to think it’s party time.  They like it because it means that we are definitely going to play some games, do some arts and crafts, and eat some food we don’t normally indulge in.

Of course we have back-up cooking methods for heating food when the electricity goes out, We became accustomed to it, since it happens with relative frequency, but in our old house in the city it wasn’t so easy.  Still, in the summer, we don’t want to fire up the woodstove and during a storm, we don’t want to stand outside in the rain cooking on the barbecue.  So, during a short term power outage, it makes life easier in many cases to eat things that don’t require much in the way of preparation.  We have specific preps for this situation that require no cooking.  It’s probably the only time we regularly consume food that hasn’t been made from scratch, so for the girls, it’s a bit of a treat.   Continue reading “What to Eat When the Power Goes Out”

Turmeric is known for a wide range of benefits, one of the most promising being it’s potential uses in the prevention and treatment of cancer. A new study published in the journal Cancer Letters has taken a new look at the active anti-cancer component in turmeric—curcumin—and found that it can strike at the ‘root cause’ of cancerous tumor formation.   Continue reading “Turmeric Strikes at ‘Root Cause’ of Cancerous Tumor Development, Study Finds”

Military Times – by Ray Locker, USA Today

WASHINGTON — Western militaries may lose access to critical materials needed for weapons and other systems, because of the growing demand for new technologies, questionable supply lines and production in unfriendly or dangerous countries, NATO documents show.

“Key strategic materials are those that are crucial in the manufacture of sophisticated military hardware or components such as airframes, gas turbines, rocket motors, munitions, armor and electronics,” according to a newly released NATO request for information. “These materials are becoming increasingly scarce.”   Continue reading “NATO: West may lose access to crucial military materials”
