Early this morning Israeli warplanes dropped bombs on the suburbs of Damascus for the second time in recent days.  With the Syrian military having seized a clear advantage on the ground against Saudi-financed Israeli-trained al Qaeda rebels, the Illuminati banksters have become ever-more desperate in their attempts to salvage their covert operation gone awry.  Syria is a key pivot in their attempt to impose a neocolonial oil-extraction blueprint on the Middle East region – a project which began in the aftermath of the Gulf War.   Continue reading “Israeli Bankers & the Middle East Blueprint”

As previewed previously, one half of the hurdle to enforce a universal online US sales tax has now been crossed, with the Senate voting moments ago to pass a Wal-Mart backed bill 69-27 allowing states to collect taxes on out of state Internet and catalog sales. The bill would end the era of tax-free Internet shopping. During the debate, senators offered examples of consumers who examine products in stores and then shop online to avoid paying sales tax. The pretext? Why fairness of course.  “This bill is about fairness,” said Senator Mike Enzi, a Wyoming Republican and co-sponsor of the measure. “It’s about leveling the playing field between the brick-and-mortar and online companies.”   Continue reading “Senate Passes Online Sales Tax Bill”

After months of trash talking and sabre rattling on all sides of the conflict, the North Korean missile crisis may be coming to an end.

Diplomacy between the west and North Korea has been especially fragile in recent weeks, especially with the American citizen who was sentenced to 15 years hard labor there.  Luckily a calm in the storm has been reached, and the North Korean government has withdrew their missiles from the launch site.   Continue reading “North Korea Withdraws Missiles from Launch Site”

According to Sgt. Lindsey Houghton, police had information that the bikers would participate in a group ride Saturday and set out to conduct safety checks. Police officers from the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of B.C. and other integrated road safety units then gathered near Duncan to monitor and halt the large group of motorcyclists, who had plans to travel from Nanaimo to Victoria on the Island Highway.   Continue reading “More than 150 Hells Angels, other bikers block road during police showdown on Vancouver Island”
