Before It’s News

Funny how Public Relations works: Inside the U.S. Ed Snowden is a traitor, whistle-blowers (now a BAD thing to be when up to very recently, the authorities routinely “called for witnesses to come forward” in a crime situation) and a criminal who of course should be treated like Manning and locked up naked in solitary.   Continue reading “Obama on Snowden “I’m Not Going to Scramble Jets to get a 29-Year-Old Hacker.” That’s What He Says in Africa…”

This sounds like history repeating itself. The first whistle blower protection law was passed after sailors with the continental Navy was concerned about the commander using the tactics of torture and other inhumane means to coarse British Prisoners of war. To the shock of a few sailors committed mutiny to stop the immoral acts by relieving the officer of duty.

Even though the Captain arrested and criminally charged the sailors for doing their duty exposing torture. This is why Congress passed the first whistle blower protection law with no one objecting. I wish these whistle blower laws were taken just as serious when Abu Grab was exposed that not only low level people by Lindy England went to jail. The chain of command should have shared a prison block with her..   Continue reading “The First Whistle Blower Protection Law was passed in 1777. A very good story”

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely – so said Lord Acton. We’ve also been told that money is power, and that money is the root of all sorts of evil. When you add all of those bits of wisdom together, it paints a picture of the current mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg.

Bloomberg is one of the wealthiest men in the world. He has used his billions to buy and hold his office as mayor of NYC, where he has instituted policies and practices completely beyond the scope of lawful government and in direct opposition to the restrictions of the U.S. Constitution. Not only has Bloomberg decreed that his subjects may not purchase large soda drinks and that his Pretorian Guard may “stop and frisk” anyone they choose – at any time, for any reason or for no particular reason – he has also used the power of his office and apparently the city’s taxpayers’ money to advance his own dream of restrictive firearm laws across the nation.   Continue reading “The Most Dangerous Man In America”

Iyad Rishmawi appears to be an older respectable kind of gentleman, balding, neatly dressed, but the guy clearly has a sense of humor. He wants to talk about the First Intifada from the point of view of the people rather than the politicians, but first he wants to show us a documentary film, “The Wanted Eighteen.”   Continue reading “A true story of bovine resistance”

America represents the worst of rogue governance. So does Israel. They menace humanity. They persecute their best. They honor their worst.

Peacemakers are scorned. Waging war on humanity’s rewarded. On March 21, Obama received Israel’s Medal of Distinction. It’s also called the President’s Medal.

It’s Israel’s highest civil award. It’s for individuals “who have made an outstanding contribution to the State of Israel or to humanity, through their talents, services, or in any other form.”   Continue reading “Another Israeli War Criminal of the Year Award”

Every Citizen Soldier

“Out of a hundred men, ten shouldn’t be there and 80 are just targets.  Nine are the real fighters, and we are thankful for them because they make the battle.  But the one, the one is a warrior and he brings the others back.”
-Heraclites

That quote from 500bc is as true now as it was then.  Think back and realize, this was the time of the Greek citizen soldier, the height of hoplite warfare.  The city states of Greece were defended by their citizens who drilled in the summer time and engaged in brief campaigns against their neighbors.  If you took 100 modern American civilians I would imagine a similar ratio.  The Spartans, still citizen soldiers, took their soldiering seriously.  Through dedication and training they upped the ratio of real fighters and warriors and were able to clean house.   Continue reading “The Combat Triad”

The NSA is spying on everybody.

That includes a major, major, prime target: Congress.

So imagine this conversation taking place, in a car, on a lonely road outside Washington, late at night. The speakers are Congressman X and a private operative representing a covert unit inside the NSA:  Continue reading “Snowden, NSA, blackmail, and the boys in the back room”

The Obama administration and the NSA have gone into full spin mode trumpeting its victories in the plots that didn’t happen while conveniently ignoring the one that did.

Not only did the “don’t worry if you’ve done nothing wrong” Big Brother government not stop the Boston Marathon suspects, it knew who they were. It knew where they lived (190 Norfolk Street, Cambridge.) If they didn’t know, they could have asked me, and I’d have looked it up for them in public court records from Tamerlan’s 2009 domestic violence charge.   Continue reading “The big question: Why didn’t NSA spying stop the Boston bombing?”

WEB Notes: We will basically repeat what we said when the Senate passed this in a test vote… The death of America draws nigh. The passage of this amnesty bill for roughly “11 million illegal immigrants” will be the death stroke of America. Make note those “11 million” will bring all of their family members aboard the nation formerly known as the United States.   Continue reading “TREASON: U.S. Senate Passes Amnesty Bill in 68 to 32 Vote”

In Early June, on 2 nights a few days apart, unknown people calculatedly destroyed 6500 genetically modified (GMO) sugar beet plants, toxic products of Monsanto and Sygenta, Genetically Modified not to have a higher quality or provide more yield, but simply to withstand higher doses of Monsanto’s poison “Roundup”, to benefit the company at the expense of he people.   Continue reading “40 Tons of GMO Sugar Beets Destroyed by Unknown Movement in Oregon”
