 Conformity, Regulation and FREEDOM
lex, Friday, Jun 28 2019, 11:44pm
As a tertiary student some decades past I was force fed Foucault . After reading his texts it became evident that all were the result of Foucault's personal dilemmas as a homosexual in what was then conservative ruled society and what he had been subjected to in order to 'cure' his/that condition, 'illness' of homosexuality; I am able to make light of it today but for Foucault, as regulated victim, it was traumatic, as is easily determined from his textual productions.

The Propaganda Ministry Masquerading as 'the Free Press'
Paul Craig Roberts via stella, Thursday, Jun 27 2019, 8:46pm
As many independent journos have reported on many occasions, media 'presstitutes' constitute not a free press but a Ministry of Propaganda for the government and ruling oligarchic interests. Ben Norton explains that CIA control and manipulation of the media has a long tradition, a tradition exposed by journalists who know:

Obvious Reality and the Nose on Your Face
stacey, Thursday, Jun 27 2019, 8:00pm
While the mass media continues to engage in DISTRACTING the public, Americans continue to be led by it like sheep to the slaughter. So I have a couple of questions for star-spangled, nose-ringed, media morons out there. Which terrorist nation leads the world in killing innocent civilians? Answer: AMERICA! Which nation leads the world in waging illegal, preemptive wars based on LIES, pretexts, false flags and numerous other fabrications? Answer: AMERICA! So let's get REAL for a change.

Facebook May Pose a New Financial Danger Greater Than Wall Street
Ellen Brown via jaxie, Wednesday, Jun 26 2019, 11:21pm
Believe it or not Money flows more freely in China than it does in America and the West where currency control is at the Heart of all political and power control. The Reserve Banking Cartel, headquarters in NY, is clearly on notice as China shows the way to financial freedom, which involves removing the debt-chains that shackle/ENSLAVE entire western populations. Read the following with the focus it deserves as it involves either more draconian financial enslavement or total financial freedom outside the clutches of traditional financial power structures. Presently we are dealing with a two-edged sword, which way it cuts could be determined by the people NOT existing IT or Wall St power centers. Nevertheless, this new formula/model is clearly outlined for everyone to appreciate and possibly utilize to free the people.

Where it Began -- Balkanization and Consequences Today
Aleksandar Pavic via liz, Sunday, Jun 23 2019, 11:26pm
Where to start with today’s Balkans… Now, or almost three decades ago, when the victorious West decided, as its strategic and ideological foe disintegrated, that it could fearlessly flout the post-WW II international order standing on the key pillars of respect for the territorial integrity of states and non-interference in their internal affairs as laid out in the UN Charter and the Helsinki Accords, and went about the bloody business of breaking up Yugoslavia (with Germany taking the lead). So, yes, the seeds of today’s intractable instability were indeed sown at the start of the last decade of the 20th century. And, despite (or, actually, because of) the West’s 30-year “crisis management,” not only has “lasting peace” not taken hold in the region – but new troubles are on the horizon.

Fool Me A Million Times
Paul Edwards via jane, Sunday, Jun 23 2019, 10:28pm
Yogi Berra experienced “deja vu, all over again”. Marx revised Hegel, saying history repeats itself first as tragedy, then as farce. Bush the Lesser, riffing on who to blame for being fooled, got lost in his trope. Now unctuous Pompeo and Bolton are lying/selling war on Iran, do YOU remember RECENT HISTORY?

The American Way of Illegal Wars
Philip A Farruggio via sheila, Saturday, Jun 22 2019, 11:00pm
The infamous Herman Goering had this quote at the time of the Nuremberg Trials in the wake of World War II [1]:
“Naturally the common people don’t want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, It is the Leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. it works the same in any country.”

US Mass Media Weapon Requires Re-Load
stella, Saturday, Jun 22 2019, 9:42pm
The amount of skepticism regarding the entire Iran attack story is huge if credible and relevant reports are considered. Indeed, expert analysts and other commentators are not buying the story as presented by the NYT or Trump's ridiculous claims thereafter; and as usual no substantial evidence is offered to the public to support these absurd claims. Now note that war with Iran is simply not possible due to credible overriding factors, primarily the effect it would have on the global economy.

Media, War Boosters Slam Trump for ‘Chicken’ Response to Iran
Barbara Boland via jaxie, Friday, Jun 21 2019, 10:38pm
UPDATE 6/21, 6:30 a.m. As late as 7 p.m. EST last night the military was prepared, on the president’s orders, to launch limited, retaliatory strikes against a handful of Iranian assets, but the White House later called for the military to stand down. According to news reports quoting multiple administration officials Friday morning, planes were already in air and ships positioned, but no missiles had yet been fired when the word came to call off the strikes.

Trump's Entirely Predictable Scripted Response to Drone Provocation
Jake Johnson via jane, Friday, Jun 21 2019, 12:07am
After President Donald Trump on Thursday ominously warned that Iran made a "very big mistake" by downing a U.S. drone and told reporters they will "soon find out" whether the administration plans to take military action, advocacy groups warned that any strike against Iran "could spark a major war" and urged Congress to act to avert a potentially catastrophic conflict.

Warmongers using LIES to start Illegal Wars
Dr. Rodrigue Tremblay via gus, Thursday, Jun 20 2019, 11:41pm
[False flag operations:] “The powers-that-be understand that to create the appropriate atmosphere for war, it’s necessary to create within the general populace a hatred, fear or mistrust of others regardless of whether those others belong to a certain group of people or to a religion or a nation.” James Morcan (1978- ), New Zealand-born Australian writer.

Clearly urged on/conned by Israel, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, America has finally succumbed. The recent shoot down of a US drone over Iranian air space, a fully justified defensive and legal act by Iran, is the latest DESPERATE attempt by this cabal of terror to provoke a war with Iran.

Taiwan: Delusional Washington Behaves as if Overlord of World
Peter Koenig via shaz, Wednesday, Jun 19 2019, 11:20pm
Taiwan has become a new “eastern pivot” for Donald Trump. Against all international laws and UN charters, he is approaching Taiwan, as indicating to the world that regardless of the established world rules which make Beijing, the Peoples Republic of China (PRC), the official and legitimate Authority of China, with Taiwan being a part of China – the self-styled emperor, Mr. Trump, pretends he prefers dealing with Taiwan as an independent country. By doing so, he intends to invite others to do likewise. Trump wants to make Taiwan an ‘ally’ – dreaming of setting up a US base on the island, thus further encircling China. It is the old game, divide to reign. But he can’t be as ignorant as to believe it will actually work. It’s just one more thing to annoy PRC. Frankly – seen from a step back, it looks more like attempting to dump one of those primitive Trumpish ‘diplomatic’ bombshells on PRC’s back. – Provoking the Dragon? (story and 1 image)
