 Israel First Regardless -- How Washington is Led by the Nose posted by Philip Giraldi via jen, 2018-06-08 00:13:22
Israel possesses, to be sure, the most powerful foreign policy lobby operating not only in the United States but as well in Western Europe and Australasia. When Israel makes its incessant demands, politicians from Washington to Canberra and Wellington pause to listen. In Britain, fully 80% of Conservative parliamentarians are members of the Conservative Friends of Israel. (full story)

 DHS Seeks to Compile a Database of ALL Journalists, Bloggers and Top "Media Influencers" posted by cyd, 2018-06-06 11:37:24
The population has become accustomed to losing most of its civil liberties and inalienable rights over the past two decades so what would it matter if it loses them ALL, as surely no-one is going to do anything constructive about restoring our lost freedoms and liberties. Amazing, I managed to write the introductory first sentence without mentioning Big Brother! (full story)

 Killing Delusional Social Authority with REALITY posted by Marty Kaplan via tim, 2018-06-05 22:35:30
Indeed, perhaps they do as is evidenced by the relentless pursuit by the CIA of Dr Timothy Leary, the psychedelic prophet of the 60's who preached, "turn on, tune in and drop out," via the use of psychedelics and effected a massive social change, which social permutations and manifestations today continue to be socially suppressed.

 Facebook Allowed a Chinese Firm Deemed a 'National Security Threat' to Access Personal Data posted by Cody Fenwick via jan, 2018-06-05 22:07:00
It is little wonder that CIA shaped and supported Facebook is manic about mining personal data. It's myopic view of what is good for the company (and the CIA) without any regard whatsoever for its users' privacy would eventually see it fail or at least LEARN. The world's leading IT company, Apple, has now released an app/feature which prevents Facebook from surreptitiously mining personal data from iPhones. Other major IT companies would soon follow suite as Apple leads the market place by simply exploiting obvious user wishes -- that simple. (full story)

U.S. Foreign Policy: Coercion and Bribery -- that's it! posted by Paul Craig Roberts via dan, 2018-06-05 21:03:29
Sanctions are a form of economic WARFARE, coercive pressure is applied to force independent nations to Washington's will; or direct threat, like comply or "we will bomb you back to the stone age, " which threat made international headlines at the time. There is very little sense that issues from a primitive rustic nation like America. It possesses no real culture or cultural depth which other world nations could claim, which of course leads to brilliance in politics from hard learned bitter lessons -- Washington is yet to learn the basics as it openly wields its primitive club to bash any nation over the head. And if another nation is strong enough to fight back Washington imposes soft but effective warfare, SANCTIONS, which are illegal under international law as sanctions quite plainly are COERCION or force. And no nation has the right to force another sovereign nation to comply with its views or demands. (full story)

Trade Wars and the World Reserve Currency posted by Huang Lee, 2018-06-02 22:12:04
The unpegged (to anything of value) paper US dollar is fast becoming the un-preferred world currency, it has absolutely no inherent value, as it is not pegged to gold or any other valuable commodity; its ‘value’ is derived purely from subscription, that is, its reserve status as the currency utilised for oil and resource trade, which resources have value due to their usefulness as distinct from the paper currency of exchange, which is now overprinted to the extreme making it even less viable.

Google Forced to Cancel Contract with Pentagon: It is Staff that Run Big Companies NOT CEOs or Execs posted by Julia Conley via lucy, 2018-06-01 23:10:22
It is no secret that Google has a tight relationship with the murdering, criminal, CIA and other nefarious institutions. Nevertheless, a company staffed with determined employees is clearly able to shape its character and future. Full credit to All Google employees who forced the company to withdraw from its AI drone program with the mass murdering Pentagon. For pete's sake Google is supposed to be a benign search engine, not involved in censoring/backgrounding dissenting alternative news and other controversial sites or playing soldiers with the Pentagon. Hopefully Google worker responses to management become infectious and average people realise just who is in control of all companies private and public. Hooray for taken for granted but crucial workers everywhere! (full story)
