The on-going situation with Syria is showing the entire world that the U.S. government is under the control of criminally insane liars. The international community has largely rejected any sort of military intervention in Syria because of alleged chemical weapons use but this has not stopped the Obama regime from moving forward with their plans to strike.   Continue reading “Obama And Washington’s Gaggle Of Zionist Psychopaths Continue Push To Engage In Blatant War Crimes Against Syria”

If you are like me, these past months, if not these past few years, you have been constantly asking yourself the question of “Why are we training Russian troops in the U.S. under the guise of the UN when we are supposed to be fighting against them in the Middle East”? It makes ZERO sense. And no one has been able to acknowledge it or answer it or maybe they are just too distracted with other immediate propaganda and scandals that are happening within our government and around the world.

I, for one, like to look at all sides and try to come up with a bigger picture much like the psychopaths in our government try to do. They want you to focus so much on one thing, that you fail to grasp how it applies to everything else overall.   Continue reading “What’s the deal with Russia and why it is IMPERATIVE that we reject the UN and any International Assistance”

Like many folks, this author worked hard each day to earn money to pay bills and help others in need.

With the economic depression that the United States had felt itself in one could see that job losses had led to lowered city tax revenues.  What had been the result?  Many cities turned to the police as revenue generators ordered to fill a daily ticket quota or face threats of layoff or other miseries should they not choose to act as ordered.    Continue reading “A Tale of Two City Revenue Scams EXPOSED”

A senior Syrian opposition figure warned Washington that all its interests in the region will be attacked by battalions of suicide bombers formed by the Syrian opposition forces if it dares to attack Syria, stressing that homeland is more important to the dissidents than opposition to the government.

“Although, we are among the Syrian government’s opposition forces, we assume our homeland’s interests to be more important than any other interest and therefore, we have formed a number of battalions to conduct suicide operations and target the US interests in the Middle-East,” Secretary-General of al-Shabab Party Mahir Marhaj told FNA on Saturday.   Continue reading “Syrian Opposition Vows to Join Ranks with Assad if US Attacks Syria”

The Department of Agriculture on Friday approved four Chinese poultry processors to begin shipping a limited amount of meat to the United States, a move that is likely to add to the debate over food imports.

Initially, the companies will be allowed to export only cooked poultry products from birds raised in the United States and Canada. But critics predicted that the government would eventually expand the rules, so that chickens and turkeys bred in China could end up in the American market.   Continue reading “Chinese Chicken Processors Are Cleared to Ship to U.S., Will Not Require Country-of-Origin Labeling”

We’ve been reporting for several years about the extraordinary levels of secrecy surrounding the TPP negotiations, where little information was released about what was going on, and there were few opportunities for representatives of civic and other groups to meet with negotiators to present their point of view. More recently, there have been some indications that this lack of transparency is fueling increasing discontent among some of the participating nations.   Continue reading “Desperate To Sew Up TPP Negotiations At Any Cost, Politicians Agree All Future Meetings Will Be Completely Secret”

Ann Jarrell, a 54-year-old software trainer, received an urgent phone call at work from her 23-year-old daughter, Jennifer, in March of this year.

“It smells terrible out here, Mom,” she said. “I don’t know what’s going on, but you need to get home.”

What was going on was that the Pegasus pipeline, which carried Alabasca heavy crude oil (tar sands) from Illinois to Texas, had ruptured en route and the Jarrell’s tiny town of Mayflower, Ark. had a river of oil flowing through its streets.   Continue reading “Exxon Made Us Sick: Ann Jarrell Is Outraged, and She’s Not Alone”

Radiation readings around tanks holding contaminated water at the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant have spiked by more than a fifth to their highest levels, Japan’s nuclear regulator said, heightening concerns about the clean-up of the worst atomic disaster in almost three decades.

Radiation hotspots have spread to three holding areas for hundreds of hastily built tanks storing water contaminated by being flushed over three reactors that melted down at the Fukushima Daiichi plant in March 2011.   Continue reading “Record radiation readings near Fukushima contaminated water tanks”

The retired US basketball star Dennis Rodman is back in North Korea and the stakes are high. Rodman could influence the fate of an American political prisoner toiling in one of the country’s labour camps. Or he may start a basketball league.

One thing is certain: before Rodman leaves the “hermit kingdom” five days from now, another chapter will unfold in one of the world’s strangest friendships. Call it “absurdist diplomacy” – a notoriously erratic retired NBA player meets a despotic boy king; the two become close friends.   Continue reading “Dennis Rodman returns to North Korea to meet ‘my friend Kim’”
