Traitors in Washington Are Putting A Flamethrower to The U.S. Constitution
Alex was asked about Senate Bill 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which says that any American citizen or global citizen who opposes the global witch hunt against "terrorists" and the emerging global technocratic dictatorship will be held in jail without trial.
The bill is important to talk about because it is a stunning indication of how far America has fallen under the current treacherous leadership, and points to the hellish homegrown dictatorship that the country is blindly marching towards. Americans classified as "homegrown terrorists" and "domestic extremists" won't just be detained and tortured by the nutcases in Washington, they will also be targeted for state execution.
The precedent for assassinating an American citizen was set by Washington's shadow government not this year when Al-Qaeda patsy Al-Awlaki was killed, but on November 22, 1963, when President John F. Kennedy was murdered by CIA gunmen in Dallas.
In the post-9/11 world, every American and every citizen of the world who stands up for the rights of the individual is demonized as a terrorist and a radicalized conspiracy theorist. And if a nation asserts its independence it is declared a rogue state by the mad leaders of the West.
Indeed, the new world order dictatorship is not a conspiracy theory anymore. It is a fact of 21st century life and global politics. The language of Senate bill 1867 turns the whole world into a battlefield in which any one of us could become a potential victim of the genocidal madness of the Bankster Occupied Governments (BOGs) in Washington, London, Paris, Ottawa, Berlin, Tel Aviv, and other capitals around the world.
Every senator who votes for the bill will be exposed as an anti-American soulless scum who wishes to sign away the future of America and the freedoms of the American people.
In a Washington Post Op-Ed on Sunday, November 27, the co-sponsors of the treasonous bill, (T) John McCain and (T) Carl Levin, who chair the Senate Armed Services Committee, defended the bill by using the brave and heroic martyrs of the American military as political cover for their evil political program:
Congress has passed a defense authorization bill every year for five decades. This year's bill includes pay raises for our troops, funding for equipment to protect them from roadside bombs, and medical care and other benefits for them and their families. It would be extremely unfortunate if disagreements over these detainee provisions prevented us from passing this bill and fulfilling those duties. But it would be tragic if this happened because of misunderstandings about what the bill says and does.What the bill says now can be reinterpreted and twisted to apply to future conditions. As Alex Jones pointed out in the interview on Russia Today, the dictatorial powers of the bill will be used against American citizens who want to take back their country from the banksters, not shadowy Al-Qaeda terrorists who are on the payroll of the shadow CIA.
In an Infowars Nightly News Report on Monday, November 28, Alex highlighted the most monstrous and shocking parts of the bill, and said that it signifies the rise of NORTHCOM in the United States.
NORTHCOM, following in the footsteps of CENTCOM and AFRICOM, will be used to spread terror in the hearts and minds of the North American population.
The masters of terror who did the 9/11 attacks will commit more acts of state terrorism to maintain control of their brutal and evil system.
The Bankster Occupied Governments that live on terror will not give people anywhere the chance to breathe and reflect on the chaos that they are engineering in the world. They want people to silently submit to their fate of perpetual slavery and mass death.
And millions of slave-minded people will bow down to the mad government architects of global destruction and global terror because they don't want to see the full horror of what they have passively accepted for a decade.
But those of us who love honor and bravery must have the spirit and determination to defeat these monsters. We are stuck at the bottom of this hell, but this is not our collective fate. We can decide our own destiny and chart a new course in human history.
For the time being, however, we must embrace the suck, as Marines say, until we find a way to reach to the surface of freedom and hope.

Iranian Students Take Over The British Embassy In Tehran, Chant "Death To England"
Did Khamenei send "protesters" as a retaliation against the British government for imposing newer and stiffer economic sanctions on Iran? The Islamic Republic of Iran has a history of staging dramatic events that grab international attention and using mobs as a tool of propaganda warfare.
The 1979 hostage crisis was planned by Khomeini and his closest advisers, who were in contact with the Bush-led CIA from the very beginning of the whole operation. In fact, the Bush-led CIA signed off on it and made it happen.
The crisis helped Bush and Reagan get in power by making Carter look weak on national security, and allowed Khomeini to consolidate control in Iran by gaining greater popular legitimacy as the "tough as nails anti-imperialist revolutionary." Read more about it here.

Battlefield Earth: Resist NWO Tyranny or Die Under It
"This is no time for ceremony. The question before the House is one of awful moment to this country. For my own part I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery; and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty towards the majesty of heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings." - Patrick Henry.The War on Terrorism was never about catching Al-Qaeda and killing the terrorists who were accused of committing the 9/11 attacks, mainly because Islamic terrorists didn't do the 9/11 attacks.
The new world order terrorists in the shadow CIA and the zionist terrorists in the shadow Mossad are the guilty parties who killed three thousand innocent Americans on 9/11 and used the tragedy to pursue their own evil ends.
The World War that 9/11 spawned was always about destroying America and Western democracy. The neocon plan for regime change in the Middle East is connected with the globalist plan for regime regime change in North America and Europe. One plot cannot be understood if the other is not taken into consideration.
Both the people of the Middle East and the people of the West are victims of the new world order cabal.
NWO governments in the West have prepared for riots and social unrest following the coming planned economic collapse by equipping the police and military with high-tech gear and armor, as well as taking police state measures to prohibit the exercise of citizen rights in public space.
In America, the traitors in the Senate and the House are doing the unthinkable: giving the criminal shadow government the power to detain American citizens in the dark of night and then throw away the key to their freedom.
On November 28, Paul Joseph Watson and Alex Jones wrote in their article, "Yes, Americans Will Be Targeted As Terrorists Under the NDAA":
Controversy over whether or not Americans are exempt from a provision of the National Defense Authorization Act bill, set to be voted on this week by the Senate, which defines the the entirety of the United States as a battleground in the war on terror, has been addressed by Republican Congressman Justin Amash, who warns that the bill does apply to U.S. citizens.
As we previously reported, under the 'worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial' provision of S.1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, which is set to be up for a vote on the Senate floor this week, the legislation will "basically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield," said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who supports the bill.
That provoked concerns that American citizens could be targeted as terrorists and indefinitely detained without trial or charge.
This bill crosses a red line. But it is not the first and it won't be the last.
The traitors who hijacked America have consistently attacked the core principles and foundations of American society and the Western tradition of the rule of law.
Behind the veil of counter-terrorism and the war on terror, they have declared war upon America and humanity. It is time that we all face this fact, and take the necessary steps in our own lives to one day restore truth, justice, and freedom in public life.
But we must not fail the future and turn our back on humanity in this hour of crisis. We must defend the cause of freedom and individual dignity in the West.
What transpired on 9/11 is proof that our leaders do not believe in the value of human life and the universality of law. They are cold-blooded mass murderers who will never end their reign of terror.
A century of war and tyranny has been planned. The government terrorists will stage more false flag terrorist attacks in America and other Western countries to keep this evil plan in motion.
Our job as free thinking citizens is to stop this hidden plot for total world domination, expose the murderous traitors who are involved, and then hang them and bury their bodies in the sea alongside their patsy buddy, Osama Bin Laden.

Iranian Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi: "the Basijis will not even give Israel the time to breathe."
War in the nuclear age is futile and stupid.
A war between Israel/America and Persia hasn't started yet, but we can already get a glimpse of the terrible consequences for the entire world if war begins.
If there is going to be a nuclear holocaust in the Middle East, Iran will be the victim, and the zionists, globalists and neocons will be the ones responsible.
Iran has been threatened with nuclear annihilation by the most extremist hawks in Washington and Tel Aviv.
But Iranian generals have not flinched in the face of war propaganda. They have fired back in speeches to thousands of Iranian professional soldiers and volunteer fighters in cities across Iran.
At a military parade held in Bushehr on Sunday, November 27, Iran's Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi said that if Iran is attacked by Israel "the Basijis will not even give Israel the time to breathe."
Vahidi also said America is not prepared to fight a war with a nation that can defend itself, saying that the conquests of Iraq and Afghanistan are laughable because Saddam's army laid down their arms and that there was "no one to fight" in Afghanistan.
While both statements by Vahidi are true, it is not a smart tactic to disrespect American generals and make them hate you. America has the nuclear firepower to obliterate Persia - and it also has the will to do it because treacherous demons have hijacked the American military and usurped the will of the American people.
Satanic criminals have used the American military as their toy for many decades, and they are not going to stop anytime soon.
Iranian generals are literally laughing at Satan when they say America has not been in a real fight since Vietnam. And Satan is pissed
Do Iranian generals think that God will save Iran in a fight with Satan? Is that their strategy - relying on faith and religion? How many millions of Iranian fighters and Iranian citizens will have to die before God decides to show up in Persia and scare away the demons in Washington and Israel?
Depending on God for victory in battle is a characteristic of a fanatical and self-destructive nation.
Iranian leaders say they have faith and morality on their side. But how can faith and morality measure up against American and Israeli nukes? A nation needs faith to face a great tragedy, but no nation has ever won a war with faith alone.
Will Iranian leaders accept a moral victory but half of its population blown to dust? And will American leaders use nukes on Iranian cities to defeat Iran's resistance? These are questions that nobody is asking in the media. But I can't stop thinking about them.
The only question that is raised in the media is related to Iran's nuclear program. Does Iran have a nuclear bomb? If not, are they building one? And when will they get it?
My answer is who cares.
We should be more worried about the country that already has hundreds of nuclear weapons and is trying to start world war three, not the country that is building one nuclear bomb to defend itself in case it is attacked.
A nuclear-armed Iran is not as scary and destabilizing as Israel starting world war III by attacking Iran.
Iran should abandon religion and use science to get a nuclear bomb because at least then it will have a chance at preventing its destruction at the hands of Israel and America. One nuclear bomb is enough to deter Israeli-US aggression. No more is needed.
If Iraq had weapons of mass destruction then America would've stayed away. So, ironically, weapons of mass destruction actually prevent war.
It is certain that if Iran does not get a nuke in time it will be attacked by Israel and Washington. The chickenhawks will only strike Iran if it is not armed with nuclear weapons.
As soon as Iran announces it has nukes the calls for war against it will stop and the rats behind the war propaganda will crawl back inside their holes.
Absolute hell will be unleashed in the Middle East if Iran doesn't get a nuclear bomb and comes under a full-scale attack.
The amount of needless suffering and bloodshed that the people of Iran and Israel will be forced to endure in a war cannot be imagined. Both sides will suffer. And America will suffer, too.
There is no reason why mass suffering and mass death should take place in the Middle East for the years to come.
In May 2011, retired CIA officer Paul Pillar said that a military attack against Iran "would be an absolute and utter disaster," and added: "it will be nothing but folly."
A war between America and Iran is a tragedy that does not need to happen.
America and Iran can be the best of friends. The people of both countries want peace.
As Ron Paul says, friendship and economic trade is the answer, not war and threats.

Stephen M. Walt: America's Problem Is Not A Rising China, But The Moral Collapse In Washington
The United States possesses the basic ingredients needed to more than hold its own in a future competition with China -- a competition that is already underway -- were it not for our growing talent for podiatric marksmanship (i.e., shooting ourselves in the foot). Whether the issue is the GOP's stalwart effort to protect the super-wealthy, the bipartisan commitment to throwing good money after bad in Afghanistan, or the gradual hollowing out of the essential sinews of an advanced society (schools, roads, power grids, transport hubs, etc.), it is clear that our problem is not a rising China. On the contrary, the real problem is a befuddled and aimless political class, comprised of men and women lacking knowledge, accountability, political courage, or any genuine commitment to the common weal. What they've got in spades is personal ambition, but not much else. If "morally informed leadership" is a prerequisite for success, then we are in big trouble.Glenn Greenwald agrees. On November 27, in an article about WikiLeaks receiving the highest journalism prize in Australia, Greenwald said:
In sum, China revealingly imprisons the Nobel Peace Prize winner, while the secrecy-obsessed U.S. Government works to destroy the group that has uniquely displayed a "courageous and controversial commitment to the finest traditions of journalism: justice through transparency."

A Third World War Won't Stop A Second American Revolution
"It's not a scientific report, it's a political document," said investigative journalist Seymour Hersh on Democracy Now on November 21, referring to the latest IAEA report about Iran's nuclear program.
The same could be said about the 9/11 Commission report. Philip Zelikow, who served as the Director of the Commission, is an expert at creating public myths. Zelikow was instructed by the neocons in the Bush administration and the overlords in the shadow government to stick to the official version of the 9/11 attacks.
As a storyteller and strategist, Zelikow knew what had to be done. He made sure that 9/11 eyewitnesses who saw or heard explosions near the World Trade Center site were silenced. All alternative explanations of the 9/11 events were to be erased from public memory. At least, that was the attempt of the Commission under Zelikow.
The 9/11 Commission's totalitarian aim to hide the truth about 9/11 from the global public has not worked on everyone. It tried to cover up the reality about the uniform collapse of Building 7, which was not hit by a plane, but it has failed thanks to the hard work done by 9/11 family members, ordinary citizens, and organizations like Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth to bring Building 7 to public attention.
The totalitarian myth-makers in Washington and Israel have lost the infowar. Major psychological change in the global public mind has been achieved by the truth-telling of the 9/11 truth and justice movement. This was not true five years ago, but today it is a fact staring humanity in the face.
Facts don't go down well in the satanic offices in Washington. The rotten and treasonous members of the Establishment are so deluded that they think the sea change in global public opinion about 9/11 can be erased if they simply ignore it in the mainstream press. They believe they can still move forward with their hidden agenda to start World War III in the Middle East and engineer an unprecedented economic collapse in the West.
But these demonic maniacs are mistaken.
The American people and the global public are not falling for 9/11 lie or the drumbeat against Iran by Washington and Tel Aviv.
The propaganda for an Iran war has been destroyed faster than the propaganda for the war against Iraq.
Seymour Hersh, Gareth Porter, Ray McGovern, Pepe Escobar, and millions of other rational voices around the world are calling the latest IAEA report a scam. Even people inside the IAEA, the American military, and the Israeli military do not believe that Iran is building a nuclear bomb.
Hersh told Democracy Now's Amy Goodman on November 21 that "if you asked serious, smart, wise Israelis in the intelligence business — and there are many — "Do you really think, if they got a bomb—and they don't have one now—they would hit Tel Aviv?" and the answer was, "Do you think they're crazy? We would incinerate them. Of course not. They've been around 2,000 years. That's not going to happen." Hersh added:
"But there's an element rationality in the Israeli intelligence community that's not being expressed by the political leadership. It's the same madness we have here. There's an element of rationality in our intelligence community which says, in '07, and it has said it again last year, they don't have the bomb. They're not making it. It's at NIE, 16 agencies agreed, 16 to nothing, in an internal vote, before that—they did an update in 2011 on the '07 study and came to the same place. It's just not there."The IAEA's big lie technique is not working as well as U.S. and Israeli policy makers had hoped it would.
In the old golden days of war propaganda, during the Bush administration, the world believed every lie that was told by Washington, especially the lie about 9/11.
The 9/11 Commission under Zelikow can be compared to the IAEA under its new head, Yukiya Amano. Both men oversaw a process whereby a false political narrative was manufactured and scientific evidence was buried to justify U.S.-Israeli wars of aggression.
Why are American political leaders lying on such a large scale about a non-existent nuclear program in Iran? Why are these lunatics itching for a third world war?
One main reason is to stop a second American revolution that is targeting the treasonous Federal Reserve System, the shadow CIA, the military-industrial complex, the criminal banksters on Wall Street, the foreign policy establishment, and the two-party dictatorship.
The terrorist hijackers of the American government believe that the best way to undermine the 9/11 truth and justice movement and end America's revolutionary awakening is by attacking Iran and starting world war three.
An attack on Iran would lead to total chaos in the Middle East, the collapse of the global economy, and, ultimately, a global authoritarian government. Also, the President will be given the opportunity to declare Martial Law and use emergency powers against American citizens.
Paul Joseph Watson reported on Saturday that the U.S. Senate is planning to give the U.S. military the power that every tin-pot dictator claims for himself: the power to arrest citizens without charge or trial. Watson writes:
If Iran is attacked under the pretext that it is developing a nuclear bomb then the hijacked American government will be faced with resistance not just from Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Afghanistan and throughout the Middle East, but especially from the American people who are tired of all the criminal wars that are being fought in their name.
The Senate is set to vote on a bill next week that would define the whole of the United States as a "battlefield" and allow the U.S. Military to arrest American citizens in their own back yard without charge or trial.
"The Senate is going to vote on whether Congress will give this president—and every future president — the power to order the military to pick up and imprison without charge or trial civilians anywhere in the world. The power is so broad that even U.S. citizens could be swept up by the military and the military could be used far from any battlefield, even within the United States itself," writes Chris Anders of the ACLU Washington Legislative Office.
Millions recognize that an attack on Iran by the globalist traitors and war criminals in Washington will also be an attack on American sovereignty and the rights of the American people. The political and economic chaos following an attack on Iran will be used by the elite to completely destroy America's constitution and implement the last stages of the fascist new world order agenda.
But the new world order traitors will fail because the American people and people around the world are aware of their evil plot to destroy the land of liberty and create a global dictatorship.

9 Final Ways The Bankster Occupied U.S. Government Is Waging War Against America
Part I: 9 Ways The Hijacked Federal Government Is Waging War Against The American People.
Part II: 9 More Ways The U.S. Government Is Waging War Against America.
1. Ideology.
There is a dictatorship of the mind and spirit in America. The official ideology of the U.S. totalitarian state is counter-terrorism and national security. All domestic and foreign crimes are justified under the umbrella of security and defense. The false flag September 11 attacks served as the catalyst that brought this totalitarian ideology into being on a world stage.
The attacks also had the effect of putting the American people into a psychological state of subservience towards the government and power elite. As a result, the free will of the American people has been destroyed. The minds of the people are directed at non-existent terrorists like Al Qaeda and non-threatening countries like Iraq and Iran for one single purpose: to generate insecurity in the individual so that he/she supports the false and permanent war on terror.
Hans Barth wrote in his 1939 essay called, "Reality and Ideology of the Totalitarian State," that, "a people completely unified by a totalitarian policy and wholly integrated as a spiritual body, thus offering a foundation for a totalitarian state, is nothing but a flexible instrument for the use of the commander-in-chief in the pursuit of the totalitarian war," (Barth (1939); The Review of Politics, Volume 1, Issue 03, Pg. 275-306).
The voice of dissent and 9/11 truth is the only way to break the totalitarian conditioning of the American people and the people of other Western countries.
2. Paradigm.
What exists in Washington is one party dictatorship with two political factions. Super committee or no super committee, republican or democrat, the will of the power elite will prevail over the will of the people under the current system.
The false left-right political paradigm enables the power elite to remain in control and continue to loot America without being discovered as the real enemy of the American people.
The one party dictatorship also means that there is no accountability for the political leadership. Both Republicans and Democrats have stabbed America in the back. This political fact has led to the collapse of the American people's trust in the federal government and Congress.
What lies ahead is social unrest, political collapse, and revolution.
3. Militarization.
Militarized cities are occupied cities.
Urban space is regulated by the hijacked government not to defend the interests of the public but to acquire greater power for the treasonous elite and suppress patriotic dissent.
Essentially, the power elite have turned public space into an urban war zone. An atmosphere of war is created in the public mind, giving the mentally occupied individual two choices: either side with the loving and protective government, or the dangerous and scary domestic terrorists.
Stephen Graham, author of "Cities Under Siege: The New Military Urbanism," said in a recent interview on Democracy Now about the militarization of the police and the violent government reaction to anti-Wall Street protesters:
Well, there's been a longstanding shift in North America and Europe towards paramilitarized policing, using helicopter-style systems, using infrared sensing, using really, really heavy militarized weaponry. That's been longstanding, fueled by the war on drugs and other sort of explicit campaigns. But more recently, there's been a big push since the end of the Cold War by the big defense and security and IT companies to sell things like video surveillance systems, things like geographic mapping systems, and even more recently, drone systems, that have been used in the assassination raids in Afghanistan and in Pakistan and elsewhere, as sort of a domestic policing technology. It's basically a really big, booming market, particularly in a world where surveillance and security is being integrated into buildings, into cities, into transport systems, on the back of the war on terror.Will Grigg, author of "Liberty in Eclipse," has written about the militarization of the police in America for a number of years. In an interview with Scott Horton of Antiwar Radio on November 22, Grigg said:
"With respect to where we are now with the crackdown on Occupy Wall Street, take a look at the way the enforcers are garbed, take a look at the techniques they use. We're living in what is essentially a prison society."In the prison society that Grigg talks about, the police officer is a guard and the citizen is an inmate who is considered guilty and a potential violent threat to the state. The rule of law is not defended. Instead, police officers are brainwashed and used to rape the public in the name of security.
4. Culture.
The manipulation of mass culture by the elite is part of a larger war against the mental integrity of the individual and the free will of the people. The whole edifice of mainstream culture in the West is designed to control thought and speech. As Terence McKenna said, "Culture is not your friend . . .It insults you, it disempowers you, it uses and abuses you. None of us are well treated by culture. And yet we glorify the creative potential of the individual, the rights of the individual. We understand the felt-presence of experience is what is most important. But the culture is a perversion."
The culture that is being produced creatively by the alternative media, underground music, and other cultural avenues is countering the official totalitarian culture that is handed down by authoritarian governments, corporate elites, and the treasonous media. The harm that the official culture is doing to the average individual cannot be overstated. State propaganda and predictive programming techniques are regularly used in T.V. programming and films to control behavior and thoughts. People have been turned into animals under this psychological prison system.
The most important element of culture is storytelling. Stories connect us with our past, inform our present actions, and point the way towards the future.
In America, the power of storytelling has been hijacked and misused by the controllers of the U.S. government to indoctrinate the people of the world and destroy freedom of thought. The assassination of JFK and the terrorist attacks on 9/11 have overturned the American constitutional system of government, as well as other Western democratic governments, but the official stories about these events that are told in mainstream culture hide the true nature of these evil crimes.
5. Drugs.
Pharmaceutical drugs are promoted and sold by the government and television, but natural drugs are suppressed and persecuted. Many of these natural drugs have the effect of opening the individual's minds to amazing experiences and new conceptions of life and the universe.
The mind is liberated from the routine of everyday life and everyday thoughts when natural drugs like mushrooms are taken, and this experience has political implications, as McKenna said. When people start seeing the world in a different light they don't go back to believing in the fictions and fantasies of the mainstream matrix. The road to intellectual discovery opens up, and the individual begins to search for answers to both personal and political questions.
6. Fear.
Creating fear and chaos is the modus operandi of the U.S. shadow totalitarian state, and of all totalitarian states. Fear is the blood that keeps the fascist state going. The governments of Iran and Israel use the same political playbook against their citizens as the hijacked American government.
Keeping the people in a state of fear and mental insecurity enables political leaders and the criminal power elite to remain in a dominant position in society.
The pumping up of external enemies is the best way to keep the people submissive and scared. But enemies don't fall out of the sky. Enemies in modern totalitarian nations like Iran and America are made by political elites who painstakingly design a propaganda-oriented society that is constantly fed lies and disinformation.
Propaganda, however, is not enough to generate fear about an outside enemy. The manufacturing of dramatic events like the 9/11 attacks, 7/7 attacks, and the Iranian hostage crisis are necessary to create the image of the external enemy in the public mind of a nation.
There is nothing like drama and fear. 9/11 showed that slow-moving societies need explosive and dramatic acts of murder if they are to be moved in a certain direction by political elites in a short period of time. Without drama, without blood, without fear, without murder, without creating a public spectacle, elites cannot attain their dreams of war and revolution.
Fear shuts down critical thinking and makes people even more stupid than they already are, which is why the religious zealots in Iran and the globalist terrorists in the West both use fear as a political tool.
7. Language.
"Presidential power is the power to persuade." – Richard Neustadt
"When the president speaks, he governs." – Sandra Silberstein
"Language is apparently a sword which cuts both ways. With its help man can conquer the unknown; with it he can grievously wound himself." - Stuart Chase
In a democratic society, citizens use language to define collective priorities and interests, but in the current totalitarian hell that we live in the collective use of language has been hijacked by private interests in the pursuit of private ends.
The Western shadow states and establishment media are misusing language to suppress thought, control the political conservation about 9/11 and the war on terror, and alter cultural beliefs about the freedom of the individual.
The thought police in the totalitarian state love the magic of words because it can shape public perceptions about major events, political figures, and dissidents.
I am fascinated by the power of words. With one simple line, astronaut Neil Armstrong marked the official beginning of the space age. A couple of political slogans helped an inexperienced state senator from Illinois become the President of the United States.
I was too young to remember what was said in television news reports and newspapers, but I've seen many video clips on the Internet of news anchors and special guests speaking on ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, CBC, BBC, and other news networks about the significance of the attacks. It is clear that the Zionist criminals, Neocon terrorists and shadow CIA traitors were not wasting any time. They seized the day on 9/11. It was the opportunity of a lifetime for any fascist and totalitarian leader.
Three thousand dead innocent Americans, New York City's skyline destroyed, the Pentagon attacked -- these dramatic pictures were created and politically exploited by the merchants of death in D.C. and Israel -- but pictures are not enough in a time of crisis -- words are also needed.
9/11 Commission director Philip Zelikow spelled it out in a lecture in Houston earlier this month called, "The Twilight of War." Zelikow said: "It's my job to make meaning of 9/11." This lowlife also said that the CIA manufactured Al-Qaeda "is the enemy," and that they "are an unslayable power." LOL. This traitor relishes his role as the destroyer of America and the bringer of death and pain. He likes the thought of sending the shining knights in the American military to slay fabricated dragons abroad. It gives him something to do. The snake-like teller of lies is his station in life. He couldn't be a doctor, an architect, or a taxi driver, so he settled for being a war criminal.
8. Stigma.
The power of social stigma, shame, and ridicule cannot be overstated. Society is governed in this matter by criminal rulers who don't like to use force to dominate the people and keep their privileges.
In totalitarian societies, truth-tellers are treated like outcasts and driven outside of the community while the biggest liars and mass murderers lead the nation. This is the case in America, Iran, Israel, England, and many other countries.
America and Iran became full-scale totalitarian nations in the 1980s, when Reagan and Khomeini, two power-craving traitors, came to dominate the political scene in both countries thanks to much larger forces that put them in power.
Instead of being shamed for using violent rhetoric, attaining power illegally, and sponsoring backdoor arms deals, Khomeini and Reagan were glorified and raised to the status of heroes.
Both totalitarian leaders molded themselves as "revolutionaries" but they were not revolutionaries. They were destroyers and traitors. Khomeini followed the orders of his masters and destroyed Iran. And Reagan did the same to America, with Bush standing right beside him to make sure he didn't suddenly have a change of heart about committing treason against America.
Even today these two puppets are seen in a heroic light. The statues of Reagan and Khomeini are embraced as god-like by their deluded and brainwashed cult followers.
In a just world, unjust men like Khomeini, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Cheney, Bush II, and Obama would not just be shamed, but hanged, and buried in the sea.
But the reverse is happening.
Murderers and traitors like Reagan, Khomeini, Bush, and Obama are called saviors of the nation and defenders of freedom, while real heroes are shamed and ridiculed as "paranoid conspiracy theorists," and "domestic terrorists."
Millions of truth-tellers in America and the West are silenced and stigmatized. In Iran they are tortured and murdered.
Ron Paul is stigmatized as "loony" for advocating freedom in America and peace in the Middle East, but the sociopathic madmen who hijacked the Republican party and call for total world war are given the most media attention.
The weapon of social stigma as wielded by the establishment media can make people not listen to the wise Ron Paul, but instead, make them blindly follow psychopathic leaders like Barack Obama and his Republican foes to the point of complete destruction.
9. Secrecy.
"We have a system of runaway secrecy," said historian and author Richard Dolan in his lecture about the U.S. government's cover-up of UFOs in April 2011 in Amsterdam called, "Secret Space Program And Breakaway Civilization."
The secrecy of the hijacked U.S. government is its essential feature. Almost every public statement and public policy initiative is meant for global public consumption. I wrote an article in June that contained a quote from a U.S. government official named Edmond Taylor who said that U.S. government policy has two levels, "the esoteric and the exoteric."
The esoteric side is guarded from the American public, low-level government employees, and even high-ranking military and intelligence officials.
The power of the secret and informal government in Washington is beyond imagination. Dolan says the secret-holders have become a "breakaway civilization."
Over the decades, the secret-holders and power elite have broken their psychological ties to regular reality. Their emotional separation with the people of the world is total and complete. They do not consider themselves as part of our world.
Cutting political ties with the American constitutional government and Western democracies is the next step. And they have been very busy building a global fascist government in the shadows so this step is not as difficult as it was in the past.
Psychopaths Rule The World: The Devaluation of Human Life
The Doomsday Project and Deep Events: JFK, Watergate, Iran-Contra, and 9/11
By Prof. Peter Dale Scott
Published: November 22, 2011
"I know the capacity that is there to make tyranny total in America, and we must see to it that this agency [the National Security Agency] and all agencies that possess this technology operate within the law and under proper supervision, so that we never cross over that abyss. That is the abyss from which there is no return."I would like to discuss four major and badly understood events – the John F. Kennedy assassination, Watergate, Iran-Contra, and 9/11. I will analyze these deep events as part of a deeper political process linking them, a process that has helped build up repressive power in America at the expense of democracy.
-- Senator Frank Church (1975)
In recent years I have been talking about a dark force behind these events -- a force which, for want of a better term, I have clumsily called a "deep state," operating both within and outside the public state. Today for the first time I want to identify part of that dark force, a part which has operated for five decades or more at the edge of the public state. This part of the dark force has a name not invented by me: the Doomsday Project, the Pentagon's name for the emergency planning "to keep the White House and Pentagon running during and after a nuclear war or some other major crisis."
My point is a simple and important one: to show that the Doomsday Project of the 1980s, and the earlier emergency planning that developed into it, have played a role in the background of all the deep events I shall discuss.

Iranian General Qassem Suleimani Spins Arab Spring As An "Islamic Awakening"
He said:
"The Islamic awakening is a voice that you cannot hear. You should know that today the U.S. is no longer faced with one Iran. Dozens of Irans have emerged in the region and the nations have woken up to U.S. (plots)."This is a lie.
The Arab people are not longing for the rule of Mullahs. They want freedom and democracy. Iran has neither. Iran has totalitarianism and militarism.
Iran is ruled by false prophets who crave power and money.
The Islamic Regime is an illegitimate regime that was founded by traitors. Khomeini's Islamic revolution succeeded with the help of the shadow CIA and MI6 and the Bush-Reagan coalition.
The Islamic Republic's biggest secret is that Khomeini collaborated with the "Great Satan," which makes the Islamic Republic the little brother of Satan.
Muslim Brotherhood: Scum of The Earth
Muslim Brotherhood rally in Cairo's most prominent mosque Friday turned into a venomous anti-Israel protest, with attendants vowing to "one day kill all Jews."The Angry Arab writes:
The Muslims Brotherhood are the scoundrels of political: they are always seeking refuge in the last refuge of Middle East scoundrels. They are embarrassed by their political cowardice vis-a-vis the Military Council so they suddenly remember Jerusalem and the Aqsa mosque (when the contributions of the Muslim Brotherhood in all its branches over the years have amounted to...nothing, literally, unless you count their services to pro-Israeli Arab regimes). They suddenly decide to dedicate a march in Tahriri to Al-Aqsa Mosque. Those demagogues want to divert attention from the radical agenda of Egyptian revolutionaries. But Palestinians were on alert: they formed groups on Facebook and sent letters asking the Brotherhood to not do what Arab regimes do: exploit Palestine for cheap political ends.

How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Iranian Bomb
But what if it did have a bomb. So what? Israel has 400 nukes. And America's nuclear stockpile is large enough to destroy every city on Earth.
Call me a fan of the bomb. The democratization of nuclear weapons is a good development in international affairs. We should support the self-defense of all nations, including Israel and Iran. An equal playing field is better than wars that are heavily tilted towards one side.
Nuclear-armed states will cause a stalemate in the Middle East and pressure governments to resolve political problems diplomatically instead of acting with hostility and hatred towards each other.
Right now, the political conservation about Iran is filled with paranoia, disinformation, lies, propaganda, radicalism, and fear-mongering.
We need truth, common sense, and reason to prevail in America, the West and the Middle East.
Below, I list four reasons why a nuclear Iran does not mark the end of the world, but the beginning of a new peaceful and positive era in the Middle East with a return to the balance of powers. I think America and Iran can be very good friends and this partnership will benefit both countries. The people of America and Iran must demand that their governments stop using negative rhetoric against each other, and form a new economic, strategic and political alliance in the region.
Reason #1. Iran is not controlled by irrational suicidal Jihadists who want to blow up Israel, but by rational actors who are pursuing rational goals.
The other day I heard a U.S. politician saying that the international community should treat Iran like Al-Qaeda. This is so stupid and backward. The only thing in common that Al-Qaeda and the Islamic Republic of Iran have in common is that they are both creations of the shadow CIA and MI6. But the similarities end there.
Why would the political, religious and military elite in Iran attack Israel with a nuclear bomb and bring destruction upon themselves? Let's step back and think for a minute. No government is this irrational and self-destructive.
Reason #2. Once every nation has a nuclear bomb no nation can say it is superior and mightier than another. Threats against other states will cease because when the opposing side has the same weapon as you, mutual self-destruction will become an imminent reality. In such a state of affairs, war will finally be exposed for what it is: stupid, destructive, and insane.
Israel, India and Pakistan have a nuclear bomb. What's so scary about another country getting it? Iraq and Afghanistan didn't have any nukes, and they got bombed and invaded. So it is more scary to not have a nuclear bomb than to have a nuclear bomb.
From Iran's perspective, getting a bomb means stopping a war. I agree with that. If nuclear bombs stop aggressive nations like Israel and America from attacking other nations, then let all nations have it. Let Taiwan get a nuke. Let Chile have one. Let's all have nuclear bombs and point them at each other. What happens then?
I think mankind will come to its senses and say to itself: "Hey, we all share one planet and we have an interconnected economy. So let's not be stupid monkeys and actually use these nukes against each other. Let's talk because that is what intelligent human beings do. Let's come together and destroy our nuclear weapon systems."
If that doesn't happen, then the nightmare scenario might come to fruition: Israel bombs Iran. Iran makes a bomb and hits Israel. America and Israel bomb Iran to the point of annihilation.
Result: Israel and Persia, two great civilizations, are ruined and destroyed.
Nobody wants to see that besides a few radical freaks in Israel and Iran, and a few thousand psychopathic men in the West who love destruction and war profiteering.
Hopefully we'll all see how stupid war is, and stop making bombs. A whole new economy might develop in America, and the banking-military-industrial-congressional complex might finally go out of business.
Reason #3. Iran has not invaded another nation under false pretenses or committed terrorist acts against other states.
America and Israel are the two most aggressive nations in the world because they have never felt real economic and spiritual pain in modern warfare. The wars against Vietnam and Iraq by bankster occupied America, and the war against Gaza by Israel were mass murder campaigns, not real wars.
Palestinians know the pain of aerial bombing and chemical weapons, as do Lebanese, Iraqis, Afghans, Iranians, Russians, Japanese, and Europeans.
Right now, a real state of war does not exist in Israel, America, and the West.
The West is not at war against terrorism or Radical Islam.
Radical Islamists pose zero threat to America, Israel and Western civilization.
A terrorist attack here and there, all of them staged by Western intelligence agencies, does not mean the West is in a life and death struggle with an external enemy. To say that Israel and America are at war with Radical Islam is an act of imagination, not a statement of fact.
The war on terrorism is a false and manufactured war. The two biggest terrorist attacks in the West, 9/11 and 7/7, were done by Western shadow governments with the help of Israel.
Reason #4. An Iranian bomb will make Israel less belligerent and disrespectful towards Iran. It will also force Israeli leaders to stop their fear-mongering and address more pressing matters like the Israeli-Palestinian peace process and economic inequality in Israel.

America And Israel Will Go From Tough Talk To A Real War Against Iran
"Make no mistake: American elites are gearing up for military confrontation with the Islamic Republic—and, in the process, displaying all of the cultural, intellectual, and political pathologies that produced the 2003 Iraq war." - Flynt Leverett and Hillary Mann Leverett, two former senior officials in the National Security Council."Maybe common sense will prevail. Or maybe some diplomat or some official with standing will stand up and say, as nobody did before the Iraqi war, and nobody may do now, somebody in the inside will say this is crazy. But so far it's not happened," said investigative journalist Seymour Hersh on Antiwar Radio with Scott Horton on Tuesday, November 22, 2011.
Hersh commented on the the validity of the latest IAEA report, the split in the Israeli military over an attack on Iran, and the ramifications of all the fear-mongering about the "Iranian bomb" by the Western media.
Hersh's clear-eyed reporting about the Iranian nuclear program in The New Yorker, along with reporting done by other journalists like Gareth Porter, is countering the "doom and gloom" narrative about Iran that is being pushed by Tel Aviv and Washington.
But as we saw in 2003, journalism can't stop war. At least not the kind of journalism that perpetually misses the target.
Porter, Hersh and other outstanding journalists are courageous on the Iranian nuclear question, but where are they on 9/11 truth? As historian Webster Tarpley and others have pointed out, exposing the truth about the 9/11 attacks is key to stopping an emerging war with Iran, which would inevitably become a regional war with global repercussions.
Lies lead to war. Truth leads to peace. Pretty simple, huh?
Why tell the truth about Iran's nuclear program and Iraq's non-existent WMDs, but cover your eyes from the truth about 9/11 and scream "conspiracy theory! conspiracy theory!" like a little girl? It doesn't make sense. Even war correspondents who face death for days on end turn to wussies and wimps when the subject of 9/11 truth is brought up.
Are non-mainstream, investigative journalists being threatened with death and told not to touch 9/11 truth? If this is the case then I completely understand why journalists are silent and play dumb.
But if Western journalists are not being threatened with death by the CIA, MI6, and Mossad, then they are really a bunch of cowards for not exposing the truth about 9/11.
A generation of journalists have abandoned the craft and let down the public, and non-mainstream, investigative journalists have played a big role in this betrayal.
Why is telling the truth about 9/11, 7/7, and other acts of state terror so important? Because it reveals that we are dealing with terrorists and mass murderers in Washington, London, and Tel Aviv, not rational and peaceful citizens who are part of the international community.
The evil state terrorists in Washington have given up on America. They are building a global fascist government. From their treasonous perspective, the quicker America falls, the better. And there is no better way to destroy a nation than use its money, reputation and blood to wage illegal wars.
So don't have any false hopes. The barbarians in America and Israel WILL attack Iran and start world war three. It is a matter of when, not if.
Do you think these savages have any reservations about blowing up another country that hasn't provoked or threatened the United States and Israel? Don't be silly. They KILLED three thousand Americans in one day on September 11. They have no morality and no patriotism. Restraint is not in their vocabulary.
Killing humans is sport for the psychopathic elite. They leveled Iraq, destroying cities like Fallujah with chemical weapons and still defend the mass murder years later as "the birth pangs of democracy in the Middle East." They could care less about waging a total war on 70 million Iranians. Major politicians and presstitutes in America and Israel will even cheer when Iranian cities are nuked.
So grow up non-mainstream, investigative journalists! A World War is coming.
I know, I know, you live in a world where evil doesn't exist and the American government wouldn't kill its own citizens in a cold-blooded act of state terrorism, but this isn't your daddy's government, okay. Washington was hijacked by hellraisers who have engineered an era of total terror over the world along with Israel and NATO.
The current American government is the embodiment of Satan. That is not a religious statement. It is a fact.
Nations can become evil if evil men hijack them and brainwash the people. This is what happened to Germany under Hitler and Nazism; Russia under Stalin and Communism; Iran under Khomeini and Islamism; Israel under Zionism; and America under The Federal Reserve, CIA, and Corporate Totalitarianism.
As Al Pacino's character says in the famous speech from the film 'Any Given Sunday': "We are in hell right now, gentlemen."
Yes, we are all in hell.
The madmen in Washington and Tel Aviv are threatening nuclear war. "All options are on the table" means "Fuck you 99 percent. We own you and we will do with you as we like. Democracy is dead. Freedom didn't survive the last century's wars. Your voice is meaningless. Now shut up and stop crying slaves."
People who think we are not in hell have no clue.
An act of mass murder and terrorism by the U.S. government on American soil has been covered up for a decade by the world press, and we're supposed to act like everything is normal.
The assassination of an American President by the CIA has been covered up for nearly half a century, and the whole world is pretending America is the leader of the free world and a shining light on the hill.
Only in hell would such insanity and madness prevail above reason and truth.
In the 21st century, the demonic is alive and well in Israel and America.
The demonic banksters and psychopaths want to start a world war in the Middle East. And you know what? They are going to get their world war because millions of naive people still think the truth about recent American history is all a "conspiracy theory," including non-mainstream, investigative journalists.
The naivety and stupidity of the people makes possible the psychopathy and criminality of the elite.
Mankind is in this mess not because a few thousand demonic thieves have conspired to wage war and pillage nations, but because people choose to remain blind and refuse to believe in their acts of conspiracy, fraud, and treason.
BBC's Greg Palast: The Global Corporate Dictatorship
Scott Horton Interviews Seymour Hersh About Propaganda For An Attack on Iran
Seymour Hersh, award winning investigative reporter for The New Yorker magazine, discusses his article "Iran and the I.A.E.A.;" how extensive CIA/JSOC espionage (and perhaps assassination and sabotage) in Iran failed to find any evidence of a clandestine nuclear weapons program; why Iran's interest in nukes prior to 2003 was to hedge against an Iraqi weapon; the new IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano, who has no problem regurgitating old innuendo to make a case for war; and why the bluster coming out of Israel exists mostly at the top, since common sense attitudes about Iran are common in lower ranks of the military and Mossad.

Israel, the IAEA, and the Road to War With Iran
The New York Times Calls The Obama Deception "An Antigovernment Film"
"It's a bad paper." - Gore Vidal, referring to the New York Times.The Establishment media is at it again: Calling anti-treason and truth speech "anti-government."
"Mr. Chapman, 21, said he had not heard Mr. Ortega talk of taking violent action. But more than a year ago, he recalled, Mr. Ortega and others watched an antigovernment film on the Internet called "The Obama Deception," which was written, directed and produced by Alex Jones, a Texas-based conservative talk show host who has espoused a number of conspiracy theories involving the federal government." - The New York Times, "White House Shooting Suspect's Path to Extremism," November 20, 2011.
The New York Times is using a violent act by a nutcase near the White House to demonize the American truth and justice movement, make Alex Jones look bad, and censor political speech.
The morally bankrupt media is really getting desperate. They hate the fact that "conspiracy theorists" are truthful, honest, generous, kind, honourable, and peaceful, so they are using every excuse and event to make us look like deranged mental patients.
But, ironically, the only people who are buying their propaganda are deranged mental patients.
The NY Times is the most popular paper in mental hospitals.
Seriously, though, this is no joke. The New York Times is committing a serious crime by connecting political speech to a violent act by a mentally disturbed individual. It is implying that people who watch The Obama Deception by Alex Jones are a threat to civil society and the public order.
This is an attack against the first amendment by the NY Times.
The NY Times must be opposed and defeated for suggesting their psycho-babble bullshit is true. There is nothing in The Obama Deception which encourages individuals to use violence to take America back from the traitors and criminals who hijacked the federal government. The film is an educational tool that is in the tradition of the best social criticism and political speech in American history.
The Obama Deception is not "anti-government." It is anti-state criminality, anti-mass murder, anti-financial crime, anti-treason, and anti-state terrorism.
What Alex Jones and the Infowars crew are doing is heroic, virtuous, and brave.
Shame on the NY Times for stooping to the level of the Soviet Union and using the language of psychiatry to target political speech. They are exposing themselves to be evil totalitarian apparatchiks for the U.S. Shadow National Security State.
Here is an excerpt from Wikipedia's entry about the Soviet Union's use of psychiatry to go after political critics and democratic dissidents:
In the Soviet Union, systematic political abuse of psychiatry took place. Soviet psychiatric hospitals were used by the authorities as prisons in order to isolate hundreds or thousands of political prisoners from the rest of society, discredit their ideas, and break them physically and mentally. This method was also employed against religious prisoners and most especially against well-educated former atheists who adopted a religion. In such cases their religious faith was determined to be a form of mental illness that needed to be cured. Formerly highly classified extant documents from "Special file" of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union published after the dissolution of the Soviet Union demonstrate that the authorities of the country quite consciously used psychiatry as a tool to suppress dissent.It is evident that the CIA learned quite a few tricks from the KGB about how to crush rebels and freedom fighters without using violence.
But the KGB and its newspapers failed. And the CIA and its newspapers will fail too.
The arrogant and laughable liars at the NY Times can't escape the judgment of history. Their reputation is sinking every day. The lies they have told over the years have destroyed America, and their new lies are directed at the American freedom movement which wants to restore the American constitution.
But the "paper of record" is going extinct. It is collapsing.
Its circulation is already in the toilet. The people who still read the NY Times are brain dead and brainwashed.
Killing independent thought is what the NY Times does best.
The NY Times propagandists are mad that the American people are rejecting their propaganda and turning to "conspiracy theorists" like Alex Jones to get news and commentary.
The conspiracy theory movement has liberated the American mind and the American soul from the hell of oligarchical totalitarianism and mass brainwashing by the corporate-state media.
America is no longer mentally occupied by self-appointed media priests and political myth makers who define the boundaries of what is the truth and what is a conspiracy theory.
The NY Times can't live in a world that is based on truth and freedom because it has embraced totalitarian lies and government tyranny. It has staked its existence on the success of the fascists state terrorists who carried out the 9/11 attacks and the global fascist government they are building.
But they've made the wrong choice by siding with the evil state terrorists. They are on the wrong side of history. The day the NY Times goes bankrupt will be a beautiful day in America and the world.

America's Treasonous Media: The Voice of Peace And Freedom Is Kooky And Fringe
The source of America's political, economic and foreign policy crises is its print and television media. This is not news to anyone, but it is a truth that needs to be repeated again and again.
America has an anti-American media. It is anti-peace, anti-rule of law, anti-truth, and anti-freedom. It takes orders from the globalist-led CIA, the cold-blooded technocrats at the foreign-controlled CFR and other global policy think tanks, and the financial parasites who work at the privately owned Federal Reserve.
America's media is guilty of committing intellectual terrorism against the American people and the global public mind by blacking out the truth about 9/11 and the war on terror fraud.
Everybody knows that the executives, editors and journalists who work for the top American media organizations are not real investigators of truth and crime. They are traitors and war criminals who are covering up U.S.-Israeli war crimes, above all, the false flag September 11 attacks.
These "mainstream journalists and reporters" cannot hide their disdain for the American people and the American constitution anymore. They hate America and everything it stands for.
What does America stand for? Peace. Freedom. Justice. Revolution. The dignity of the individual. Economic opportunity. Social mobility. And all that good stuff.
Ron Paul's message is one hundred percent pro-American. He is calling for peace in the Middle East and the end of American-Israeli aggression. He also wants to end the police state at home and restore the American constitution to its proper standing in the courts and the government.
The traitors in the U.S. media have blacked out and demonized Ron Paul's message from the 2012 presidential election because they fear that it will catch on like wildfire across America and burn their dream of total tyranny and world war into ashes.
Their evil dream includes the destruction of America and every other country, which they want to replace with a global fascist government owned by bankers and corporations.
Ron Paul's extraordinary success and the political awakening of the American people is a threat to the elite's demonic plans for humanity. They have reacted aggressively against Dr. Paul's rising status in the last couple of months.
In the presidential debates the "journalists" have regulated him to the fringes, giving him less than two minutes to speak to the American people. And in the media universe they act like he doesn't even exist.
The media universe is based on skewed political perceptions, not reality. In this hollow universe, Ron Paul is not the huge star that he is in real life, rather, he is a speck of dust on the American political map that deserves no attention.
The American elite are in major denial about the popularity of Ron Paul's message, and the size of the American political awakening. They are not acting rationally and maturely, but childishly. Their acts of sabotage against Dr. Paul and Occupy Wall Street are really acts against political reality and facts. Their politically constructed world is slipping through their blood-stained and treacherous fingers.
The lie about 9/11 and the War of Terror is collapsing.
The lie about the War on Drugs is collapsing.
The lie about the origins and purpose of the Federal Reserve is collapsing.
And the lie about the causes of the 2008 financial crisis is collapsing.
Every lie that is propping up this system of death and destruction is collapsing.
The truth is suppressed because the existence of so many political, academic, media, and economic institutions are at stake.
The truth about 9/11 threatens the Military, CIA, FBI, NSA, FEMA, the establishment media, academic universities, and policy think tanks. The truth about the Federal Reserve scam threatens Wall Street, the Treasury, a large number of corporations, international financial institutions, and the entire economic structure of Western civilization.
The global 9/11 truth and justice movement is putting the American elite, Zionism, and the Western corporate-state media on trial.
The rise of Ron Paul as a political powerhouse, the success of the alternative media, and the growth of America's political awakening as symbolized by Occupy Wall Street and other protest movements all represent in their own unique way the end of tyranny in America.
I am positive that in these dark and apocalyptic times freedom, sanity, and the rule of law will be restored in America and the West.
The era of elite psychopathy and mass media totalitarian brainwashing has run its course.
Syria Reacting to the Arab League
IISS: Syria's Opposition Is Armed
Placard-Waving Protesters are actually Machine Gun-Wielding Terrorists.
by Tony Cartalucci
November 15, 2011 - The "Free Syria Army" is literally an army of militant extremists, many drawn not from Syria's military ranks, but from the Muslim Brotherhood, carrying heavy weapons back and forth over the Turkish and Lebanese borders, funded, supported, and armed by the United States, Israel, and Turkey. The latest evidence confirming this comes in the form of a report out of the International Institute for Strategic Studies where Senior Fellow for Regional Security at IISS-Middle East Emile Hokayem openly admits Syria's opposition is armed and prepared to drag Syria's violence into even bloodier depths.

The Race For Iran
November 20, 2011
Mohammad Javad Larijani's visit to New York earlier this week for meetings at the United Nations coincides with a striking upturn in anti-Iranian media coverage and commentary in the West. To address some of the issues raised in the media, Larijani met with several media personalities and a range of Iran "observers" at policy organizations in New York. His media appearances this past week not only provide a window into how the Islamic Republic sees its present situation and future prospects; they also provide a window into current trends in American elite thinking and discourse about Iran. And those trends are, to put it gently, disturbing.

9 More Ways The U.S. Government Is Waging War Against America
Part I: 9 Ways The Hijacked Federal Government Is Waging War Against The American People.
"Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you!" - Pericles.
"If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter." - George Washington.
"How strangely will the Tools of a Tyrant pervert the plain Meaning of Words!" - Samuel Adams.
By the "U.S. Government" I mean the globalist traitors and evil banksters who hijacked America in 1913, and killed President John F. Kennedy in 1963. These power hungry tyrants come from a worst place in hell than Stalin and Mao. Their political program for America and humanity is more evil and authoritarian than anything else that's been done in history.
The globalist terrorists who control Washington, London, Ottawa, Paris, and other Western capitals have killed upwards of two million innocent people in Iraq from 1991 to 2011. Everything in that nation has been destroyed except the people's will to fight and resist.
Add the number of two million slaughtered Iraqis with three thousand Americans who were sacrificed on September 11, thousands of Afghans, and thousands of Pakistanis, Yemenis, Libyans, Lebanese, Palestinians, and, soon to be, Syrians.
If the globalist death cult and zionist monsters attack Persia next, the death toll of the war on terror will exceed 10 million, and maybe even more.
The evil psychopaths in Washington, London and Tel Aviv will drop nuclear bombs on Iran to save face and make Iran submit. That act alone will cause the deaths of millions of Iranian civilians.
But it's not just Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Pakistan, and other Middle Eastern nations that have been targeted for destruction by the globalist conquerors. America, Canada, and Mexico have also been targeted for economic, cultural, spiritual, and political destruction.
We will all be forced to live in globalist slavery if we don't fight back.
Below are nine ways the globalist traitors in the U.S. government are waging war against the American people and the American Constitution. Sorry For Using Capital Letters In The Beginning of Every Word. I Hope You Will Still Read It.
1. Mexico Has Been Bankrupted And Destabilized By The Globalist Terrorists On Purpose. They Have Also Opened The Borders To Unlimited and Illegal Immigration From Mexico. The Globalist Corporations And Technocrats Have Used The New Cheap Labor Class To Drive Down Wages in America And Bankrupt States.
After The Damage Is Done On Both Sides of The Border, The Globalist Traitors Will Bring In A New Political And Economic System With New Draconian Laws. And They Are Making Trillions of Dollars In The Process.
2. Globalist Traitors In The U.S. Military And Intelligence Establishment Have Used Military Planes and Covert CIA Teams To Ship In Drugs Into America For Domestic And Foreign Purposes, As Well as For Political And Financial Gain.
List of Purposes: Finance Black Budgets In The Shadow CIA And Other Intelligence Agencies; Build Up The Police State Industry And Militarize Cops; Create A New Prison Industrial Complex To Create Jobs And A New Subclass of Convicts; Ruin The Social Stability of Black and Latino Communities By Denying Them Jobs And Making Drugs Easy To Sell and Buy; Make Well Trained Police Officers Play Cops N' Robbers With Uneducated and Aimless Young Drug Dealers - Members of Both Groups Futilely Die By Playing This Sick and Sophisticated Tag Game of Death.
3. The Globalist Traitors Have Armed Mexican Drug Cartels With American-Made Weapons To Increase Drug War Violence As Part of A Bigger Ploy To Blame Gun Rights in America, Discredit Self-Defense Weapons, And Destroy The Second Amendment.
4. There Is No Justice For Victims of TSA And U.S./Israeli State Terror. Federal Judges Are Bribed, Deceived And Coerced By The Globalist Traitors To Kill National Security Cases And Destroy The Lives of Individuals Who Stick Up For Themselves And For America. The Court of Law Has Been Destroyed. A Trial By Media Society Has Been Created In Its Place. Bribed Judges Are Used To Dismiss Lawsuits Against The Government Brought Forward By Brave Individuals Like Former Governor Jesse Ventura And 9/11 Victim April Gallop.
5. Corporate And Banking Looting of Public Assets and Government Treasury By Globalist Insiders. These Snakes Think They Will Survive Without Getting Caught. But Some of Them Are Smart And Have Bought Homes In Latin America, Dubai, And Other Regions Around The World. These Rotten Thieves Will Burn America Down And Then Flee The Country.
6. Insider Trading by Traitorous Members of Congress. These People Think They Can Steal Billions of Dollars From The American People, Lie To Them For Decades, And Everything Will Turn Out Okay In The End. Idiots.
7. Assassination of Journalists, Dissidents, Soldiers, and Statesmen (President John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Congressman Larry McDonald, Senator Paul Wellstone, Gary Webb, Pat Tillman, and Many Other Noble American Patriots).
The Obama Administration Has Made The Assassination of American Citizens The Official Government Policy. Be Prepared To See Killed Protesters and "Rioters." Be Prepared To See Killed "Domestic Right-Wing Terrorists." Be Prepared To See Death And Bullets Rain Down on America Thanks To Bush, Obama, and The Globalist Traitors Who Hide Behind These Psychopathic Puppets.
8. Formation of the North American Union By The Globalist Power Cult. This Will Be A Tyrannical And Fascist Union. The Plutocrats and Traitors Are Guilty of The Destruction of The American Republic and Canadian Democracy.
9. Shock And Awe Propaganda By The Globalist-Owned Mass Media To Make The American People Submit To A Lower Standard of Living, A Police State, And A Fascist Global Government.
Resistance To The Globalist Tyranny Is Marginalized And Demonized. The Criminal and Traitorous Establishment Media Likes To Demonize Anti-Government Protests And State Secession Movements Around America As "Racist." They Are Referring To American Dissidents and Freedom Fighters As "Right-Wing Extremists," "Anti-Semitic," and "Terrorists."
It Is A Crime That They Are Connecting Protest And Freedom With Racism. This Political Playbook Is From The Depths of Hell. The Globalist Vultures Are Misusing American History For Political Gain. They Are Also Turning American Guilt About The Legacy of Slavery And Secession, Especially on The Left, Into A Psychological Weapon To Destroy Individual Rights, States Rights, and The American Constitution.

Going back to work after a holiday weekend is pretty much the worst thing ever. Okay, I'm sure there are worse things, which I just can't seem to think of right now. But, I'm glad to have this day over with.
Chester and I avoided Black Friday shopping and spent the day getting the house all festive for Christmas and went to see the Muppets (if you grew up watching the show, it's a must see. I'm pretty sure I was grinning from ear to ear for most of it). Then, on Saturday, Bridget and I headed up to New York to shop, eat and most importantly, to see Hugh Jackman: Back on Broadway. The weather has unseasonably warm around here lately, and while it doesn't exactly feel like Christmas yet, it made for a great day of walking around the city.
After dropping our bags at our hotel, we headed over to Craftbar, for lunch/belated birthday celebration for me. Craftbar located on Broad is one of Tom Colicchio's restaurants and is located on Broadway, near Union Square.
When we arrived around two, the restaurant was still serving their brunch menu, in addition to the regular menu of snacks, salads, pastas, and entrees. We both ordered from the latter. The server was really knowledgeable about the menu, including recommendations for cocktails and wine. He suggested a red wine for Bridget and helped me decide between the two cocktail options I was considering. I ended up with something that was similar to a Tom Collins, but had earl grey infused gin in it. Refreshing. I can't remember the name of either. Sorry.
We split an order of pecorino risotto balls, which were served piping hot with a spicy tomato sauce. They reminded us of the rice croquettes that Bridget's grandmother makes, but the gooey cheese was a nice touch.
For an entrée, Bridget chose the pork belly, which was served with brussel sprouts, poached egg, and sweet potato puree. It was really tender and pulled apart easily with a fork. I had the veal ricotta meatballs, which were served over house made spagehetti. The meatballs were light and delicate and the tomato sauce was slightly sweet. The only drawback for me was that the pasta may have needed to be cooked a bit more, as it was slight chewy.
They must have known I was coming, because the dessert list included a peanut butter and jelly sundae. The peanut butter ice cream, which was creamy and rich, but not overly sweet, was topped with grape jelly syrup (tasted exactly like my favorite Welch's variety) and a generous handful of caramel corn, which added a bit of texture and saltiness.
For the rest of the afternoon, we burned off a few calories shopping, and then it was time to make our way over to the Broadhurst Theater for the show.
It goes without saying that Hugh Jackman is pretty adorable. And, also, really talented. He's not just Wolverine, folks. He can sing. He can dance. He flirts with everyone in the audience and embarrasses late-comers as they take their seats. During the two hour show he performs some of his favorite songs from the likes of Cole Porter, Rogers and Hammerstein and Peter Allen (whom he won the Tony Award for portraying in The Boy From Oz back in 2003), interspersed with antidotes about his life, family and career.
At the end of the show, he auctioned off two of his sweaty undershirts for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. He invited the winners backstage after the show to meet him, and Bridget and I almost took out our credit cards, but figured it would be difficult to explain the charge to our respective husbands (one shirt fetched $10,000 and the other $6,000).
On the way to the theater, we noticed that there was a Shake Shack right near our hotel, so we stopped there on the way back for burgers, fries, and shakes to bring back to our room. I've heard that Shake Shack was the inspiration for Stephen Starr's Square Burger. This may be the case, but the Shack is a million times better.
The burgers were cooked to a medium rare, so they were juicy and flavorful. The fries were pretty standard—crispy and salty—but they were crinkle cut, so they get extra points in my book for the novelty factor. The vanilla shake has earned a place (along with Nifty Fifty's, of course) on my list of best milkshakes ever. It was thick and creamy and I was so sad when it was all gone. I will be first in line when the Philadelphia location opens in Center City next year.
Amazingly, we woke up hungry the next morning and headed to Trattoria dell'Arte, right across from Carnegie Hall. This is one of our go-to places when we come up for a show. They have an excellent antipasto bar with just about anything you could ever want, from mozzarella, to Italian meats, to grilled vegetables. We opted just for brunch—light and sweet Panettone French toast for me, and rich spaghetti carbonara for Bridget (with the egg, bacon, and carbs, it does make a good breakfast dish if you think about it!)
And, with that, it was time for me to catch the train back to Philly and for Bridget to make the long drive back up to Boston. But, we're already planning our next trip to see another show in the winter and/or spring (Book of Mormon and the upcoming revival of Evita are on our list).
The only good part about the weekend coming to an end was that I got to head back to the gym today. And, not a moment too soon.

How to give up soap
Blogger Richard Nikoley, (at left) 49, who has been soap- and shampoo-free for the last 18 months, swears he doesn't smell.
In fact, he says, his face and skin feel softer, travel is much easier, he has saved money and the experience of washing with plain old water has left him feeling surprisingly liberated.
"Don't have to buy it. Don't have to carry it. Don't ever run out of it. Don't have to get it tossed in the dumpster by TSA goons," he wrote on Free the Animal, a blog about Paleolithic diet and exercise.
Proponents of a paleo-type diet generally avoid dairy and grains and try to eat as our ancestors once did. Nikoley said he isn't trying to emulate a caveman, but he lost 60 pounds and his health improved after he eliminated grains, sugar, modern processed cooking oils, and most dairy.
"My high blood pressure normalized, I got off allergy meds I'd been on since college, and GERD meds I'd been on for a decade," he wrote in an email. "In other words I do it because I get excellent results, feel better, have stable energy, and so on."
Giving up soap, he reasoned, was primarily a matter of convenience as long as the results were acceptable. But then he found that washing only with water was actually better than using soap.
Blogger Sean Bonner agreed. He was inspired to go soap-free after reading Nikoley's piece and recounted his own experience in "I haven't used soap or shampoo in also a year and it's awesome!"
Nikoley does use hand soap before cooking and has nothing against deodorant. It's mostly body soap and shampoo that he feels is unnecessary.
If you're up for trying this self-experiment, Nikoley recommends giving it at least a month.
"Weirdness cleared up for me in two weeks or less, but we're not all the same. I suspect that women who wash furiously and slather all manner of lotions might take a year or two to normalize," he wrote.
In his blog post, he gives a few more details:
Q. How often do you bathe with hot water, and for how long each session?
A. How often is once per day — twice usually when I have a workout at the gym — unless it's a morning workout when that's my shower for the day. Length just depends. Sometimes I like barely warm and other times hot. But usually not for more than a few minutes. That's another thing. Showers are just relax time. No real work, anymore.
Q. Do you use any sort of wash towel or scrubber to exfoliate, or anything else in the shower besides hot water?
A. No exfoliation at all, except fingernails (for ingrown hairs).
Q. Are you using deodorant at all? If so, how often?
A. I do use an Old Spice stick deodorant. Never, ever an anti-perspirant in my life.

How To Spruce Up Your Head As If You're Birthday Girl Ali MacGraw
Although she was known for her long pin-straight hair that was always parted down the middle, actress Ali MacGraw also made a major impact on the fashion of the 1970's. It was a little movie called Love Story that pushed MacGraw into the world of Hollywood stardom making her the 'It' girl for a hot minute.
As Jenny Cavilleri, the girl from the wrong side of the tracks who falls for rich fella Oliver (played by Ryan O'Neal), MacGraw immediately became known for just how perfectly she encapsulated the American college-girl look of the early 1970's in Love Story. Each scene showed another plaid skirt, warm fall colors, clogs (a 1970's must) as well as a proper trench coat — even Calvin Klein said that "She (McGraw) exemplified the great American Style" of the time. But it wasn't just from the movie screen that MacGraw inspired, it was her day-to-day outfits as well as her penchant for cute caps and hair wraps that women everywhere were trying to pull off.
Whether you're going skiing this weekend in the Alps, heading off to a Halston-themed party or simply lounging on your couch here are a few ideas on how to spruce up your head thanks to birthday girl, Ali MacGraw.

The picture will show what bolts need to be loosened to move the dist. That bottom picture that JMOR posted shows both bolts well.If you want to get right down to it 8 deg btdc is wrong. It is really suppose to be 4 deg btdc at 450 rpm. The advance system in the dist will bring it up to 25 or 30 deg btdc when you get the engine running over 2000 rpm.I tell people 8 deg to get it started because some of these old tractors will not run well at 4 deg. Once you get it running we can see if you can get the rpm low enough and set it at 4 to see how it runs.
Now I have to agree with JMOR. I am going on the assumption that you have #1 at tdc on the compression stroke. If you do not; or you are not 100% sure if you do; we need to stop right here and make sure. You can make things a lot harder on us by moving the dist when it is correct now.
Take the spark plug out of #1 cylinder. This is the one by the radiator. Stick your finger in the hole and bump the motor over till you feel/hear a puff of air. We are now comming up on compression. Now move the flywheel with a screw driver till you get the timing marks between TDC and 8 deg BTDC. When you get to this point your rotor should be pointing to the hole in the dist cap that you have the #1 wire installed in. If not rather than removing and turning the dist just move the plug wires around. If it is between two wires loosen the two bolts and turn the dist a little to where it points at the a wire hole.

When you run Windows 7 with the default UAC level, a technique using code injection and several components in Windows 7 that can auto-elevate can totally own your system. Microsoft gave several components in Windows 7 special privileges (like notepad.exe and calc.exe) in order to reduce the amount of UAC prompts in Windows. The end result, however, is that these components can be used to bypass UAC completely, and basically get full access to your machine. This works even on the RC.
The proof-of-concept exploit works by injecting its own code into the memory of another process, a process with auto-elevation capabilities. This is done using standard and documented APIs. The first proof-of-concept just copied a file to a location, but further editions could do all sorts of nasty things - and ASLR doesn't help either. This video should give you a good idea. Whiskey tango foxtrot, indeed.
As the writer of the proof-of-concept code explains, the UAC API is a good API, but code does require refactoring to provide a good user experience; to not flood users with prompts. Microsoft did not do this right in Vista, and instead of addressing this issue properly in Windows 7, they took the easy way out by creating UAC backdoors for their own code and programs (the UAC whitelist) as to reduce the number of prompts. This list isn't configurable by the user.
This leads to this weird situation where even though Microsoft have stated that UAC is supposed to nudge developers to fix their code so that it works for limited users as well, Microsoft itself doesn't seem to want to do that. So, to avoid having to fix their own code to work well with UAC, they cheated. This isn't the kind of behaviour that befits an otherwise great release.
At this point in time, the default UAC level in Windows 7, and all levels below that, are insecure. You might as well turn UAC off completely, as it makes no difference to have it either off or at the default level. This entire flaw becomes null the moment you set UAC to its highest setting (as that disables auto-elevation). That's why I always advise you to do so.
Microsoft needs to address this issue before the release, or else malware and virus writers are going to have a field day. It's exactly this kind of braindead decision making that led to years of neglect of Windows NT's advanced security features, creating an environment where malware and viruses could prosper. With Vista, it seemed as if Microsoft finally got their act together, and now, with Windows 7, they're throwing it all away again.
They never learn.
