According to a report, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) is preparing legislation that would end the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) and in doing so would remove much of the authority for the war on terror and all that comes with it.
The AUMF has been used to justify everything from indefinite detention of Americans to assassinations carried out by drones so legislation that would “sunset” the AUMF would bring about many changes. Continue reading “Rep. Adam Schiff preparing legislation that could end AUMF, remove authority for war on terror”

The FBI has now made public their “Communities Against Terrorism” Suspicious Activity Reporting flyers. Continue reading “25 Reports That Can Put You on the Terror Watch List”
Sen. John McCain Monday became the highest-ranking U.S. official to enter Syria since the bloody civil war there began more than two years ago, The Daily Beast has learned.
McCain, one of the fiercest critics of the Obama administration’s Syria policy, made the unannounced visit across the Turkey-Syria border with Gen. Salem Idris, the leader of the Supreme Military Council of the Free Syrian Army. He stayed in the country for several hours before returning to Turkey. Both in Syria and Turkey, McCain and Idris met with assembled leaders of Free Syrian Army units that traveled from around the country to see the U.S. senator. Inside those meetings, rebel leaders called on the United States to step up its support to the Syrian armed opposition and provide them with heavy weapons, a no-fly zone, and airstrikes on the Syrian regime and the forces of Hezbollah, which is increasingly active in Syria.

Since early 2011, Obama’s been waging proxy war on Syria. Imported death squads masquerade as freedom fighters. The scheme’s familiar. It repeats. It reflects US imperialism’s dark side.
In the 1980s, CIA-recruited mujahideen fighters battled Afghanistan’s Soviet occupiers. Ronald Reagan called them “the moral equivalent of our founding fathers.” He characterized Contra killers the same way. Continue reading “Another Anti-Assad False Flag”

First off, the upcoming excerpt I’m ranting about, believe it or not, is entitled: Obama Blames Internet for Domestic Terrorism – which you’ll see below.
You might as well outlaw the air for empowering their fictional terrorists, and likewise outlaw inanimate guns that kill people, and SUV entities that drive over pedestrians. Continue reading “We’re There, Folks”
Don’t laugh at me as I had seen something along the lines of a UFO sighting a little while ago 9pm central time 5/26/13 in West Austin, TX. The pattern was along the lines of the simple photoshop image that I created as I didn’t have a camera with me and when I got home and grabbed my camera, it was gone.
The pattern of lights stayed in the air until about 9:30pm and I was getting a pizza with my wife at Caesars Pizza near an HEB grocery center off of the I-35 and Parmer Rd in Austin, TX. We noticed no one even thought anything of it and went on with their daily lives as though it was nothing. Continue reading “Unexplained Light Formation Reported in West Austin, TX”
