How The Illuminati Try To Keep Their Power And Control The Public, Using “It’s Gonna Happen, It’s Gonna Happen” Tricknology-Hypnosis

Colin Powell, Joe Biden and others have been going around saying there’s some crisis in the works, it’s secret, we can’t tell you what it is.
Folks, there’s no crisis happening. What is happening is a simple, but highly effective on someone who lacks the knowledge of it, trick.

The subconscious mind is always recording and listening to whatever is out there, and it exists in an open state, and without a firewall in its default mode It can also be programmed externally by immoral individuals in government, private tax exempt foundations, etc, who hold this knowledge. What is done, when people are told by said immoral individuals that so called terrorist attacks are gonna happen, gonna happen, gonna happen in six months or whatever, often specifically and intentionally spoken in an alarming and/or slow tone to bring up and maximize people’s fears, whether they be conscious or subconscious.

If someone knows about the presence of a certain fear, say an overly high, pervasive fear of impending death, they can take that and use it to exercise control over another. At one level, for example, someone who is afraid of dying and someone who doesn’t like them very much is trying to kill them bloodlessly. They might roll on up outside the door when someone is showering and say, “Are you in there? I hope you didn’t fall and hit your head!” Terror explodes across that person’s mind as the thought takes on a life of its own and goes spiraling off into scenarios, such as the mind-program that we’re all born with tends to do.

If someone is susceptible enough by being in a weakened mental and emotional state due to insanity, extreme financial hardship, loneliness, extreme emotional/physical trauma, drug/alcohol abuse, then they have a much higher rate of being susceptible to this than someone who isn’t.

These are also the criteria used to select victims for gang stalking, and for subjects for the secret government projects like the covert electromagnetic weapons tests.

The Illuminati understand this principle well and that’s why they have all those institutes like Tavistock and the like to study the mind (and break it) like it’s a 12 year old boy with his first copy of Playboy.

At another level they know that through the subconscious, we create our reality, and this is how the experiences of nations and planets are birthed. This is already understood to a small extent via hypnosis, where a stage hypnotist can take a table and make you see a hippo. Mainstream science is inching toward this slowly but surely with their inroads into the placebo effect and the area of quantum physics.

Free Yourself From Mind Control

How do you determine if you’re under mind control? The fact is that you just don’t know. In fact everything you are doing could be a response that fits perfectly into another persons plans. If you take that as a possibility you could simply just give up and yield to the fact that nothing is truly within your control but there is a healthier option.

It’s quite simple, just ask yourself, “Am I acting or am I reacting?” If you are reacting then you are respond to something outside of your control and trying to gain some control back, a potential sign of some form of mind control. No one likes to feel powerless and out of control.

The solution?

Fraud Deception And Treason Part One


In previous web-published articles I have examined evidence concerning the scientific evidential fraud behind NuLabour’s smoking ban. In this two-part article I will present evidence encompassing political fraud, deception and treason against the British people.

In April of this year we learned that the EU wipes England off the map - as Gordon Brown flies the flag of St George over Downing Street. Within the article, “the Tories accused the Government of trying to create a European superstate via the back door“.

Under the programme, known as INTER-REG, counties along England’s south coast form the ‘Manche Region’ along with northern France. The ‘Atlantic Region’ takes in western England, along with Ireland, Wales and parts of Portugal, Spain, France and Scotland. Meanwhile eastern England is part of the ‘North Sea Region’, which covers areas of Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Norway and the Netherlands. The UK Government is fully behind the project, even though the words ‘England’ and ‘Britain’ are left off official maps of each area and the Manche Region renames the English Channel ‘The Channel Sea’.

Let us examine this announcement in a little more detail. The report also indicates that, Each region, which will be given taxpayers’ money to promote trade links, cultural ties, transport policies and tourism, is to be run by a ‘managing authority’ of unelected officials overseen by a director.
“By whose authority are these regions being established, may I ask?

We are then told that, “The regions have legal status and Manche has a budget of £261million between 2007 and 2013, Atlantic has £127million and North Sea has £219million.”

By whose authority did these regions derive their legal status? This project has already been comprehensively rejected in 2004 by the French and Dutch citizens in their referenda. Who has overridden the outcome of their democratic ballots?

A Conservative MP stated that, “The Labour Government has been caught red-handed conspiring with European bureaucrats to create a European superstate via the back door. Gordon Brown literally wants to wipe England off the map.”

Fraud, Deception and Treason Part Two

In the second part of this article, we will examine in detail some of the activities of our own politicians and also those of politicians of the European Parliament. In a slight change of style I will present much of this evidence by providing links to online video materials.

Firstly, you are invited to examine the attitudes of some of our own Government Ministers towards the British electorate and, secondly, I will provide you with an opportunity to examine the video presentation of Danish MEP, Jens Peter Bonde. This provides an explanation for some of the devious tactics employed against the European people by those seeking to impose direct EU rule without first seeking informed public consent.

Michael Howard, The Drugs Baron And An Extraordinary £400,000 Bribery Claim

Michael Howard was last night at the centre of extraordinary claims by a drugs baron who alleges that he paid a £400,000 'bribe' to the former Home Secretary.
Career criminal John Haase told a Labour MP that he was released from prison early after making the payment via one of Mr Howard's relatives.

Ecuador Alleges 'Clear' Signs Of CIA Infiltration

An Ecuadorean presidential commission has concluded that U.S. intelligence services infiltrated the Andean nation's military and police and supported a cross-border incursion by Colombian troops that killed a top rebel commander.
Following the attack on a Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia camp inside Ecuador on March 1, President Rafael Correa accused the CIA of infiltrating his nation's intelligence services and appointed a commission to investigate.
The body alleged in its report, made public Thursday, that the CIA bought information from Ecuador's military and had prior knowledge of the raid, said Defense Minister Javier Ponce, who read highlights of the findings to reporters.
No one at the U.S. Embassy was immediately available to comment.

Global Cooling is Here! Evidence for Predicting Global Cooling for the Next Three Decades

In 2007-2008, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climatic Change (IPCC) and computer modelers who believe that CO2 is the cause of global warming still predict the Earth is in store for catastrophic warming in this century. IPCC computer models have predicted global warming of 1F per decade and 5-6C (10-11F) by 2100, which would cause global catastrophe with ramifications for human life, natural habitat, energy and water resources, and food production. All of this is predicated on the assumption that global warming is caused by increasing atmospheric CO2 and that CO2 will continue to rise rapidly.

However, records of past climate changes suggest an altogether different scenario for the 21st century. Rather than drastic global warming at a rate of 0.5C (1F) per decade, historic records of past natural cycles suggest global cooling for the first several decades of the 21st century to about 2030, followed by global warming from about 2030 to about 2060, and renewed global cooling from 2060 to 2090 (Easterbrook, D.J., 2005, 2006a, b, 2007, 2008a, b); Easterbrook and Kovanen, 2000, 2001). Climatic fuctuations over the past several hundred years suggest ~30 year climatic cycles of global warming and cooling, on a general rising trend from the Little Ice Age.

The Torturer's Tale


Tony Lagouranis never expected to become a torturer. He didn't even really want to be a soldier. But at 30, he was bored and broke. He had a facility with languages, fancied learning Arabic, and figured the US army would teach him for free and help him clear his student debts. When he started his training, the Twin Towers were still intact and no one expected the US to go to war in Iraq.

Even when Lagouranis chose to specialise as an interrogator, his army instructors implied that the Iraqis he questioned would be friendly and co-operative. "The last experience we had had with interrogation in the military was in the first Gulf war, when most of the prisoners were completely willing. They said: ask them a question and they'll tell you what you wanted to know."

But by the time he arrived in Iraq, the army knew better. Vast numbers of suspects were being rounded up, and they weren't talking. His superiors at the detention facility where he worked in Mosul gave him a list of authorised interrogation tactics - some might say, torture tactics.

China, Russia Renounce The Dollar?

The recent meeting between Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and his Chinese counterpart, Wen Jiabao, created a financial sensation. Wen said that the two nations could withstand the global financial crisis if they joined forces; Putin urged him to go farther and stop using U.S. dollars in Russian-Chinese settlements.

Coastal Maine Tide Change A Mystery

BOOTHBAY HARBOR, Maine—Meteorologists are baffled by rapid tidal changes along the Maine coast, which damaged some boats and piers.
Witnesses say low tide turned and became high within a matter of minutes on Tuesday afternoon. The changes occurred six or seven times. The National Weather Service says reports from several locations indicated that water levels fell and rose from 4 feet to as much as 12 feet during the event.

Waffen-WWF Death Planet Report

Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands was never much of a humanitarian. He first became enamoured with the Nazi Party in 1934, during his last year of study at the University of Berlin. He went to work for the death camp chemical company, I G Farben, where, according to the 5th April, 1976 issue of Newsweek, he was working as a spy for a special SS intelligence unit.

In 1937, Bernhard resigned from the SS. It was arranged that he would marry the Netherlands’ future Queen Juliana. His reluctant resignation letter is said to have been signed, “Heil Hitler!”

In his book, Queen Juliana, William Hoffman writes, “Tensions [over the marriage] were not cooled when … Adolf Hitler forwarded his own congratulatory message. The newspaper Het Volk editorialized that ‘it would be better if the future Queen had found a consort in some democratic country rather than in the Third Reich.”’

In 1961, Bernhard recruited Prince “I’d like to be reincarnated as a virus” Philip into his eco-fascist schemes, when they jointly set up the World Wildlife Fund. Since then, the WWF has consistently promoted genocidal policies, such as the worldwide ban on DDT.

So it will come as no surprise, then, that in their newly released “Living Planet Report 2008” (pdf), they promote death, famine and population reduction as the solution to the “looming ecological credit crunch.”

The Final Push For World Government

Bush Launches Last-minute Deregulation Push


The White House is working to enact a wide array of federal regulations, many of which would weaken government rules aimed at protecting consumers and the environment, before President Bush leaves office in January.
The new rules would be among the most controversial deregulatory steps of the Bush era and could be difficult for his successor to undo. Some would ease or lift constraints on private industry, including power plants, mines and farms.
Those and other regulations would help clear obstacles to some commercial ocean-fishing activities, ease controls on emissions of pollutants that contribute to global warming, relax drinking-water standards and lift a key restriction on mountaintop coal mining.

Vote Independent or Boycott the Elections


How long shall we allow the system to kick us in the head, take our money, insult us after taking our money, and still expect us to participate in its frauds? With every passing year, the differences between the two ruling political parties in the U.S. diminish further, and their outlook, conduct and even advertising campaigns merge so much so that their members can be mistaken one for the other.
By now it must be clear that the 'two-party' system is not only no such thing; it is corrupt to the bone.

Israel Builds Museum On Muslim Graves

An Israeli court ruling allowing the construction of a Jewish museum over graves of some companions of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in Al-Quds is sparking a controversy."Israeli is declaring a global war on Muslims and Arabs," Sheikh Raed Salah, leader of the Islamic Movement in Israel, told a press conference on Thursday, October 30."A general of the [prophet's] Companions is buried in this cemetery."Sheikh Salah noted that thousands of other Muslims have been buried in the cemetery, putting the number at 70,000 thousands until 1948.Israel's High Court on Wednesday, October 29, rejected an appeal by two Muslim groups to halt the building of a Jewish museum on the site of a Muslim cemetery in central Al-Quds.

So What Does The Obama Logo Mean, Anyway?

I was looking through Stewart Swerdlow’s Healer’s Handbook last week, and when I looked at his list of archetypes (symbols) at the back and their meanings…everything seemed to finally fall in place regarding my personal questions on what the little thing meant.

His archetype, called New Beginnings, is basically a rising sun which you are advised to visualize in yellow for it to work, and is said by him to be for attracting new experiences. It was so much like Obama’s logo, in the style, and because Obama shouts change all the time, and says America’s going to be different that I know that this is the same archetypal symbol and was put in to influence the public’s mind. He has already done this type of thing several times before with his “presidential seal” and replacing an American flag that was on his campaign plane with his campaign logo.

Calls Grow To Save Autistic Scots Hacker From Threat Of US Prison

PRESSURE is growing on the Home Secretary to step in and halt the extradition of a Scots-born autistic computer hacker who is facing up to 60 years in a US prison.
Shadow justice minister David Burrowes MP was today set to put down a motion in parliament calling on Jacqui Smith to review the medical records of Gary McKinnon who is only weeks away from being sent to the US.

Mr McKinnon's supporters claim he was merely looking for information on his UFO hobby rather than being "the biggest military computer hacker of all time" as the US claims.The supporters say the unemployed UFO obsessive, who suffers from Asperger's Syndrome, has become a recluse and is on suicide watch after becoming depressed while awaiting his looming extradition.

Ultrasound Shown to Exert Remote Control of Brain Circuits

In a twist on nontraditional uses of ultrasound, a group of neuroscientists at Arizona State University has developed pulsed ultrasound techniques that can remotely stimulate brain circuit activity. Their findings, published in the Oct. 29 issue of the journal Public Library of Science (PLoS) One, provide insights into how low-power ultrasound can be harnessed for the noninvasive neurostimulation of brain circuits and offers the potential for new treatments of brain disorders and disease.

Nanotechnology – The New Threat To Food

Following on from genetic engineering, nanotechnology represents the latest high technology attempt to infiltrate our food supply. Senior scientists have warned that nanotechnology, the manipulation of matter at the scale of atoms and molecules, introduces serious new risks to human and environmental health. Yet in the absence of public debate, or oversight from regulators, unlabelled foods manufactured using nanotechnology have begun to appear on our supermarket shelves.

Rand Corporation Lobbies Pentagon To Start Major War To Save The US Economy


According to reports out of top Chinese mainstream news outlets, the RAND Corporation recently presented a shocking proposal to the Pentagon in which it lobbied for a war to be started with a major foreign power in an attempt to stimulate the American economy and prevent a recession.
A fierce debate has now ensued in China about who that foreign power may be, with China itself as well as Russia and even Japan suspected to be the targets of aggression.
The reports cite French media news sources as having uncovered the proposal, in which RAND suggested that the $700 billion dollars that has been earmarked to bailout Wall Street and failing banks instead be used to finance a new war which would in turn re-invigorate the flagging stock markets.
The RAND Corporation is a notoriously powerful NGO with deep ties to the U.S. military-industrial complex as well as interlocking connections with the Ford, Rockefeller, and Carnegie foundations.
Current directors of RAND include Frank Charles Carlucci III, former Defense Secretary and Deputy Director of the CIA, Ronald L. Olson, Council on Foreign Relations luminary and former Secretary of Labor, and Carl Bildt, top Bilderberg member and former Swedish Prime Minister.
Carlucci was chairman of the Carlyle Group from 1989-2005 and oversaw gargantuan profits the defense contractor made in the aftermath of 9/11 following the invasion of Afghanistan. The Carlyle Group has also received investment money from the Bin Laden family.

GCHQ IT Security Expert Slams Government Claims About I.D Cards

Gordon Brown's claims for the £4.5billion ID cards project have been disputed by one of the Government's own electronic security experts.

The Prime Minister and Home Secretary Jacqui Smith have repeatedly said that ID cards will help thwart terror attacks.

Mr Brown said a national ID card scheme could 'disrupt terrorists' while Miss Smith has claimed ID cards will be a 'robust defence' against terrorists using false identities.

But Harvey Mattinson, a senior consultant at the IT security arm of GCHQ, the Government's listening station, said the claims were 'absolute bunkum'.

Mr Mattinson, who works for CESG - formerly the Communications-Electronics Security Group - said their usefulness would be primarily sharing information between government departments.

Goldman Sachs Ready To Hand Out £7bn Salary And Bonus Package... After Its £6bn Bail-out

Goldman Sachs is on course to pay its top City bankers multimillion-pound bonuses - despite asking the U.S. government for an emergency bail-out.

The struggling Wall Street bank has set aside £7billion for salaries and 2008 year-end bonuses, it emerged yesterday.

Each of the firm's 443 partners is on course to pocket an average Christmas bonus of more than £3million.

The size of the pay pool comfortably dwarfs the £6.1billion lifeline which the U.S. government is throwing to Goldman as part of its £430billion bail-out.

As Washington pours money into the bank, the cash will immediately be channelled to Goldman's already well-heeled employees.

Police Plan mass DNA Screening For Murder Committed 25 Years Ago

Police are carrying out a mass DNA screening in the hope of solving the murder of a teenage girl exactly 25 years ago.
Trainee hairdresser Colette Aram, 16, was raped and strangled as she walked to her boyfriend's house.
The death led to a huge manhunt and the case was the first to be featured on BBC's Crimewatch in 1983, but her killer has never been caught.
However, new techniques mean that police have since been able to obtain a DNA profile of the person responsible.
A dedicated team of officers has begun following up the fresh evidence in an operation codenamed Odyssey.
DNA swabs have already been taken from more than 800 past and present residents of the village of Keyworth in Nottinghamshire, where the attack took place.

The Elections And The Responsibility Of The Intellectual To Speak Truth To Power

Twelve Reasons to Reject Obama and Support Nader/McKinney

The presidential elections in the US, once again, provide an acid test of the integrity and consequential conduct of US intellectuals. If it is the duty and responsibility of the public intellectual to speak truth to power, the recent statements of most of our well-known and prestigious public pundits have failed miserably. Instead of highlighting, exposing and denouncing the reactionary foreign and domestic policies of Democratic Party candidate Senator Barack Obama, they have chosen to support him, 'critically, offering as excuses that even 'limited differences’ can result in positive outcomes,and that 'Obama is the lesser evil’ and 'creates an opportunity for a possibility of change.’

What makes these arguments untenable is the fact that Obama’s public pronouncements, his top policy advisers, and the likely policymakers in his government have openly defined a most bellicose foreign policy and a profoundly reactionary domestic economic policy totally in line with Paulson-Bush-Wall Street. On the major issues of war, peace, the economic crisis and the savaging of the US wage and salaried class, Obama promises to extend and deepen the policies which the majority of Americans reject and repudiate.

House Of Cards


You thought the housing crisis was bad? You ain’t seen nothing yet.
The Mess
Nationwide, two million homes sit vacant. Home sales are at a nine-year low. Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers says that housing finance has not been this bad since the Depression. We still don’t know the full extent of the colossal subprime rip-off, but a recent Bank of America study did some guesstimating on the scale of the consequences of the “credit crisis.” The meltdown in the U.S. subprime real estate market, the bank said, had led to a global loss of $7.7 trillion dollars in stock market value since October.
While many eyes are focusing on the housing meltdown and its hugely negative effect on an economy clearly moving into recession, few are paying attention to the next bubble expected to burst: credit cards. Combined with the subprime losses, such a credit card nightmare has the potential, experts say, of bringing down the entire financial system and global economy. You and your credit card have become key players in the highly unstable financial crunch. Mortgage lender cupidity and bank credit card greed wedded to financial institution deregulation supported by both political parties, have been made manifestly worse by Bush administration support-the-rich policies. It has brought us to a brink not seen since just before the Great Depression.
While campaigning in Edinburg, Texas, in February, Barack Obama met with students at the University of Texas-Pan American. “Just be careful about those credit cards, all right? Don’t eat out as much,” he said. After the foreclosure crisis, he warned, “the credit cards are next in line.

Shimon Peres To Be Knighted By Queen Elizabeth



Israeli media reported this week that the Israeli Embassy in London and Buckingham Palace are close to an agreement on having Queen Elizabeth confer honorary knighthood on Israeli President Shimon Peres when he visits the UK next month.
The appointment would make Peres a Knight Commander in the Order of St. Michael and St. George, a title usually reserved for British colonial affairs officials, foreign-service officers and high-ranking diplomats in Commonwealth countries.

Canada Is Set to Start a National Rollout of Chip-Equipped Debit Cards

Canada’s financial institutions will start issuing microchip-embedded debit cards by the end of the year, the country’s national electronic funds transfer network said on Tuesday. The rollout of chip cards, which follows a year-long pilot of so-called chip-and-PIN technology in the Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, area, will over the course of four years convert the nation’s 35 million PIN debit cards to chips from magnetic-stripe technology, according to deadlines set by Interac, the EFT network linking Canada’s financial institutions.

Brace Yourselves - George Bush Will Soon Be Free To Do Just What He Wants

We are about to enter the twilight zone, that strange black hole in political time and space that appears no more than once every four years. It is known as the period of transition, and it starts a week from today, the time when the United States has not one president but two. One will be the president-elect, the other George Bush, in power for 12 more weeks in which he can do pretty much whatever he likes. Not only will he never again have to face voters, he won't even have to worry about damaging the prospects of his own party and its standard bearer (as if he has not damaged those enough already). From November 5 to January 20, he will exercise the freest, most unaccountable form of power the democratic world has to offer.

Smokers To Be Banned From Becoming Foster Parents

Smokers could be completely banned from fostering children under controversial proposals branded health 'fascism' by opponents.
Redbridge in East London is believed to the first council in the country to consider a total ban on foster carers who smoke, no matter how old the child they want to look after.
It says the tough rules are needed to protect children from the effect of passive smoking, and to stop them taking up the habit from carers who they see as their role models.
But last night smokers have attacked the nanny state measure, saying it was unfair and being put forward by 'health fascists'.

Suspected Holocaust Denier Wins His Legal Fight Against Extradition After Judge Throws Case Out Of Court


An alleged Holocaust denier has won his fight against extradition to Germany.
Dr Gerald Toben, 64, is accused of publishing anti-Semitic material on his website.
The Australian academic is wanted in Germany to stand trial for posting the alleged items between 2000 and 2004.
The German authorities claim they are 'of an anti-Semitic and/or revisionist nature'.
In the European Arrest Warrant issued in October 2004, he is accused of approving of or playing down the murder of the Jews by the Nazis.
But District Judge Daphne Wickham ruled the warrant invalid today at the City of Westminster Magistrates' Court in London, saying it contained inadequate detail about the offences.
It neither states the name of the website nor where the propaganda is said to have been published from - only referring to the 'world-wide internet'.
After discharging Toben, Judge Wickham granted him bail pending an appeal after imposing strict conditions which include a £100,000 security.
Other conditions include residence at an approved address, written confirmation from the Australian High Commission of which passports he holds, and not to access the internet.
He is also banned from giving press interviews.
Judge Wickham added that she had not been required to decide at this stage whether the alleged crimes were valid extradition offences.
Grey wavy-haired Toben, smartly dressed in a suit, appeared pleased on hearing the judge's decision from the glass-fronted dock at City of Westminster Magistrates' Court
So If the warrant has been ruled invalid WHY have they released him on bail and with such tight restrictions??

Police Officers Kicked Pet Dogs

Two police officers have been told they face possible jail sentences for causing suffering and "mental terror" to their two pet dogs.
Magistrates in Denbigh heard how Anja Mason, 29 and Craig Macleod, 34, who lived together in Prestatyn, now also face losing their jobs.
A neighbour filmed them hitting and kicking the pets and called the RSPCA.
Both admitted causing unnecessary suffering to a collie pup called Tess and Macleod to a rottweiler, Snoopy.
Both officers, who will be sentenced on 25 November, have been removed from frontline duties until the end of the case, said North Wales Police.

Seven Obese Children Placed In Care

Obtained under Freedom of Information laws, reports showed one boy aged six in Derby was taken from his home by social workers because he was dangerously obese.
Another boy in London, aged 12, was put into care with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 28 - 60 per cent above the 17.5 average for his age.
In Cumbria, social services intervened when one girl aged only eight weighed over 9st and wore size 16 clothes.
Dr Colin Waine, former head of the National Obesity Forum, called for closer monitoring of children to avoid them being taken into care.
He told The Daily Mirror: "This would enable appropriate action to be taken so we eliminate the need for such drastic measures. I'm looking for a position where this never becomes necessary."

Nursery Chain To Launch Fingerprint Scanners To Check Parents Before They Are Allowed To Collect Their Children

A chain of nurseries is to require parents to use fingerprint scanners before collecting their children, it emerged yesterday.
Fifty nurseries run by kidsunlimited, a national group catering for children aged three months to five years, will phase in the technology over the next few months.
Six, including those in Cambridgeshire, Wilmslow in Cheshire and Notting Hill, West London, already operate the system. At least 100 other private or voluntary nurseries are already thought to be using scanners.
Lee Pearson, kidsunlimited chief executive, said: 'We aim to remain at the forefront of innovative childcare and to challenge traditional views of the sector.'
Manufacturer Honeycomb Solutions claims fingerprint security systems will be 'commonplace' in private schools and nurseries within five years.

Georgian Soldiers Were Doped To Kill Civilians

Many of the Georgian soldiers who took part in the attack on South Ossetia in August were drugged before going into combat, according to a Moscow-based human rights group.

On Monday in New York the Moscow Bureau for Human Rights (MBHR) presented a book of photos and testimonies from the war.

MBHR Director Aleksandr Brod said Ossetian witnesses reported many of the captured Georgians had numerous injection markings on their arms.

He suggested they “would not dare to burn women and children alive locked in churches or throw grenades into basements where people were hiding unless they were drugged.”

Brod cited accounts of Georgian troops attacking civilian convoys fleeing from the battlefield and the deliberate shelling of the Tskhinval hospital, schools and residential areas.From the very beginning of the conflict both the Ossetian and Russian sides accused Georgia of planning the genocide of the Ossetian people. According to MBHR at least 1,690 people were killed and about 1,500 were wounded over the five-day war.The Georgian side denies the accusations of war crimes, while Human Rights Watch believes the number of casualties has been exaggerated.

The Slaves That Time Forgot

They came as slaves; vast human cargo transported on tall British ships bound for the Americas. They were shipped by the hundreds of thousands and included men, women, and even the youngest of children.

Whenever they rebelled or even disobeyed an order, they were punished in the harshest ways. Slave owners would hang their human property by their hands and set their hands or feet on fire as one form of punishment. They were burned alive and had their heads placed on pikes in the marketplace as a warning to other captives.

We don’t really need to go through all of the gory details, do we? After all, we know all too well the atrocities of the African slave trade.

But, are we talking about African slavery?

Imprint Of Famine Seen In Genes Of Second World War Babies 60 Years On

Malnourishment in the womb causes genetic changes that can still be seen when people reach middle and old age, according to new research that shows how strongly environmental influences can interact with the human genome to shape health.

A study of children born during the Dutch “Hunger Winter”, a famine that struck at the end of the Second World War, has found that some still bear its lasting genetic legacy more than six decades on.

The results offer some of the best evidence yet for the importance of epigenetics, a process by which environmental factors can change the way genes are switched on and off in the body.

Epigenetics suggests that the genome can “remember” certain influences to which it is exposed, particularly early in life, which cause modifications to DNA that in turn alter the way it operates. On occasion, these changes may even be passed on from one generation to the next.

On Oct. 1, Health and Human Services Secretary Mike Leavitt declared an anthrax public health emergency. On Oct. 10, he declared health emergencies for smallpox, radiation sickness from the detonation of a nuclear device and poisoning from botulinum toxins, the active ingredient of Botox.

There’s no clear evidence that terrorists have managed to weaponize anthrax or stolen large caches of Botox from cosmetic surgeons in Beverly Hills.

But by declaring these public health emergencies, HHS has granted manufacturers of anti-terrorism drugs and vaccines and others involved with the products protection from lawsuits if the drugs were to cause unfortunate side effects.

Defence Of Free Speech Must Be Absolute

There's not much that seems to faze Alan Borovoy when it comes to his infallible belief in a person's right to free speech in Canada.
Groups that bash gays, women or religious organizations may be repugnant, but democracies must allow them to speak freely, insists Borovoy, the general counsel for the Canadian Civil Liberties Association who will give a speech in Edmonton on Wednesday.

But even for a 40-year veteran of the civil liberties movement, the ideals of free speech can occasionally clash with the realities of one's heart. For Borovoy, such a clash occurred when the CCLA defended Holocaust-denier Ernst Zundel's right not to be muzzled.

"I was bothered by the number of Holocaust survivors I knew who would be hurt by what I was saying," says Borovoy, 75.
"To know the things I was saying were so hurtful to people who had suffered so much already -- that bothered me."
But that's still no reason not to support Zundel's rights, he says, immediately afterwards.

Tamihere Is Sick Of Hearing About The Holocaust

Labour MP John Tamihere says he is "sick and tired of hearing how many Jews got gassed".

The comments - branded yesterday by the Jewish Council as "sickening" and "deeply shocking for all Jews" - were made in the same interview in which Mr Tamihere referred to Cabinet minister Chris Carter as a "tosser" and "queer" and Cabinet minister Steve Maharey as "smarmy".

They were released yesterday by Investigate magazine editor Ian Wishart after a spat with Mr Tamihere about the recording of the interview.

Alerted yesterday to the remark, Prime Minister Helen Clark said through a spokesman that while the government understood the pain the comment caused the Jewish community, she was certain Mr Tamihere meant no offence.

In the interview, Mr Tamihere is asked by Mr Wishart about how a society can be focused on injustices of the past. Mr Tamihere responds: "The Weisenthal Institute is the same. I'm sick and tired of hearing how many Jews got gassed, not because I'm not revolted by it - I am - or I'm not violated by it - I am - but because I already know that.

"How many times do I have to be told and made to feel guilty?"

H5N1 DNA In Flu Vaccine

Wall Street's Trojan Horse

Russia's foreign minister Sergei Lavrov has announced that Brazil, Russia, India and China will "coordinate efforts in overcoming the financial crisis".

The statement suggests that the four countries will confront the dominant US-UK-EU alliance, which personifies Western banking interests, at the forthcoming Summit in Washington.

“We are going to coordinate our moves with the leading emerging economies. We are in direct contact with India, China and Brazil; we are interacting in the BRIC and RIC [Russia-India-China] formats,” he added.

Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said earlier this month the crisis had shown the BRIC nations would be “the locomotive of the world economy in coming years.” (The Hindu, October 26, 2008)

The Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors of G-20 countries will meet in Sao Paulo in November ahead of the Summit meetings in Washington.

The crucial question: Is there a policy alternative to that proposed by Wall Street and the US Treasury, which might emanate from the BRIC and/or G-20 Summit discussions.

U.S. Threatens To Halt Services To Iraq Without Troop Accord

The U.S. military has warned Iraq that it will shut down military operations and other vital services throughout the country on Jan. 1 if the Iraqi government doesn't agree to a new agreement on the status of U.S. forces or a renewed United Nations mandate for the American mission in Iraq.
Many Iraqi politicians view the move as akin to political blackmail, a top Iraqi official told McClatchy Sunday.
In addition to halting all military actions, U.S. forces would cease activities that support Iraq’s economy, educational sector and other areas _ "everything" _ said Tariq al Hashimi, the country’s Sunni Muslim vice president. "I didn’t know the Americans are rendering such wide-scale services."

Microsoft Patents Web Moderator Robots

The problem with the internet, as we all know, is that it gives free rein to loonies. Once upon a time, green inkers would rant away on writing paper, seal their 30-page global conspiracy theory into a recycled envelope and post it to a newspaper, which would drop it harmlessly into a wastepaper basket. Now they infiltrate chat rooms, scrawl anonymous abuse in web discussions and even have their own video blogs.
Sometimes this is entertaining; sometimes it can be offensive. So Microsoft has just been awarded a patent for technology designed to automatically detect and remove “undesired words or phrases” from all manner of digital communications, ranging from YouTube broadcasts to internet chat and songs.
The patent describes a system that listens out for phonemes (word fragments) likely to be part of a swearword. If it thinks it hears a forbidden phrase, the software either fades out the offending syllables or simply replaces the rude word with a similar-sounding but clean alternative lifted from earlier speech without a second’s delay.

Global Cooling: Record Low Temperatures Hit America


Record low temperatures have hit dozens of areas across America as a natural period of global cooling accelerates, leaving man-made global warming advocates with egg on their face as the big chill sets in.

Record lows have been matched or beaten in the following states over the course of the last two weeks.

Obama: “Marxist” Front Man for the Banksters

Is Barack Obama a Marxist, will he redistribute the wealth to the middle class? This is the question a WFTV anchor posed to Joe Biden.

It was of course an absurd question, considering Obama is the bankster candidate of choice. Banksters do not “redistribute” the wealth downward, they direct it upward into their own coffers. In fact, the word is not even accurate. It is not “redistribution,” it is theft. The banksters are grand theft larcenists on a monumental scale.

The EU Communitarian Agenda And The New Feudalists

The European Union is a major aspect of the `New World Order` and the so called `sustainable development` movement. The main objective of the Federal European State to be, is absolute social, personal and economic control in a collectivist and corporatist society. The philosophy behind the EU is a strange mixture of Capitalism and Communism - a form of Euro Marxism which owes much of its dogma to the Pre World War II Italian Marxist Philosopher, Antonio Gramsci.. The nearest ideology to that practiced by the EU is something called `Communitarianism`, or what Tony Blair called the 'Third Way'..

Hillary Backers Decry Massive Obama Vote Fraud

With accusations of voter registration fraud swirling as early voting begins in many states, some Hillary Clinton supporters are saying: “I told you so.”
Already in Iowa, the Obama campaign was breaking the rules, busing in supporters from neighboring states to vote illegally in the first contest in the primaries and physically intimidating Hillary supporters, they say.
Obama’s surprisingly strong win in Iowa, which defied all the polls, propelled his upstart candidacy to front-runner status. But Lynette Long, a Hillary supporter from Bethesda, Md., who has a long and respected academic career, believes Obama’s victory in Iowa and in 12 other caucus states was no miracle. “It was fraud,” she told Newsmax.

Generals Try to Stop Imminent World War III


A most stunning report is circulating in the Kremlin stating that some of the most Senior Generals in the United States Military are ‘pleading’ for ‘immediate’ help from both Russian and European Military to prevent their current President from starting World War III in the coming weeks.
Even more shocking, this plea for help by the America Military Establishment came from their most senior military officer Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen, and who in an unprecedented secret meeting, held this past weekend in the neutral country of Finland, met with General Nikolai Makarov, the head of Russia’s General Staff.

This meeting between the United States and Russia’s top Military Officials followed an equally unprecedented meeting held also this past week in the Adirondack Mountain Region of New York State between these US Generals and all of the top Military Officers and Staff of Britain, France, Australia, New Zealand, Italy, Japan, Canada, Denmark, The Netherlands and South Korea.

According to these reports the American Generals have stated their ‘firm belief’ that the United States and Europe are under an ‘imminent threat’ for large scale attacks by nuclear weapons prior to the US elections, due to be held on November 4th, that will completely destroy both America and the European Union in a bid to establish upon both these Nations a new ‘Fourth Reich’ modeled upon the former German Nazi Empire.

National Trust Turns Eco Warrior To Save Britain's Green Spaces

The National Trust is to take up an aggressive eco-stance to protect green spaces and prevent desecration of the countryside.
The trust, one of the country’s biggest landowners, has decided to shift its focus to become the leading champion for the protection of green fields - a move that puts it on a collision course with the Government over housebuilding, development of eco-towns and the proposed expansions of Heathrow and Stansted airports.
The tough new position announced today by the trust, which is the biggest voluntary organisation in Europe with 3.5 million members, follows a year-long consultation of its membership and polling of the public. It signals a dramatic shift from the trust as genteel custodian of grand historic houses to warrior-like defender of green spaces that improve the lives of most citizens.
The approach is part of the legacy envisaged by Sir William Proby, chairman of the trust, who steps down at the annual general meeting next weekend. The vision also has the backing of Sir Simon Jenkins, a former Editor of The Times, who is to take over as chairman.

Well maybe in light of this the National Trust would like to reconsider its proposals to sell off hundreds of acres of its green belt land at Erddig near Wrexham to make way for a 2,500 home development?

British Firms 'Struggling Under £150billion Burden Of EU Laws'

British businesses are being tied up with record levels of Brussels red tape, a report warned yesterday.

The TaxPayers' Alliance says that UK firms are struggling under the 'severe burden' of EU regulation, which is estimated to cost £150billion a year.

The study found that there are currently 16,980 EU laws in force in this country and they are increasing at a rate of 2,000 a year.

It said that Whitehall had added to the regulatory burden by using EU directives as 'vehicles for their own policy agendas' and attaching numerous additional clauses and extending their scope - a practice known as 'gold-plating'.

Ben Farrugia from the alliance said: 'Regulations are an enormous burden to business, particularly in a time of financial hardship. The EU's addiction to regulating and Whitehall's compulsive gold-plating have added billions to business costs in recent years.
'Both the legislative process which has created this regulatory tangle and Britain's relationship with the EU needs a serious rethink.'

Health And Safety Axe On 800-year-old Right To Collect Firewood

For the past 12 years, retired builder Mike Kamp has exercised his age-old right to collect firewood from the forest near his home.
But the health and safety axe has finally come down on an 800-year-old tradition which dates back to the Magna Carta.
Forestry chiefs say they have been forced to overrule the charter due to the 'increasing constraints' of modern legislation.
The Magna Carta of 1215 included a Forest Charter which recognised the rights of commoners to get subsistence from common land. They were granted 'estovers' - dead wood - for fuel, to repair their homes, fix tools or make charcoal.
Mr Kamp, 59, uses a wood-burning stove at his cottage near Betwys-y-Coed, North Wales, and enjoys walking through nearby Gwydir Forest. But now he has been told by Forestry Commission Wales that he can no longer buy a licence to forage.

'Wicked': The 227% Interest Rate Credit Card Designed To 'Help' Families This Christmas

Britain's most expensive credit card, which carries an interest rate of 227 per cent, is being promoted as a solution for hardpressed families this Christmas.
The Easy Shop card is linked to Argos and offers one possible solution to parents who do not have the cash to buy presents for the children.
However, MPs and debt experts last night condemned the extortionate charges as 'wicked' and warned struggling shoppers to reject the card.
Argos chiefs revealed last week that the company's sales are running around 9 per cent down on this time last year.

The Deliberate Dumbing Down Of Our Children


Bright teenagers are a disappearing breed, an alarming new study has revealed.
The intellectual ability of the country's cleverest youngsters has declined radically, almost certainly due to the rise of TV and computer games and over-testing in schools.
The 'high-level thinking' skills of 14-year-olds are now on a par with those of 12-year-olds in 1976.
The findings contradict national results which have shown a growth in top grades in SATs at 14, GCSEs and A-levels.
But Michael Shayer, the professor of applied psychology who led the study, believes that is the result of exam standards 'edging down'.
His team of researchers at London's King's College tested 800 13 and 14-year-olds and compared the results with a similar exercise in 1976.
They forget to mention Mobile Phones, Fluoride, Drugs, vaccines, Alcohol, Aspartame, Cell Towers and i posted an article a few days ago about reductions in exam pass thresholds where to get a grade c pass you only had to score 20%

The European Union's Blind Eye

ON 1 SEPTEMBER 2008, the EU decided that meetings with Russia about a new partnership agreement would be postponed "until [Russian] troops have withdrawn to the positions held prior to 7 August", that is, until the Russian military occupation of Georgia (outside South Ossetia and Abkhazia, at least) had ended.

On 28 November 1995, the EU allowed Israel to become a partner, under Euro-Mediterranean Partnership arrangements with states bordering on the Mediterranean. At the time, Israeli troops were occupying parts of Lebanon and Syria and the Occupied Palestinian Territories (the West Bank and Gaza) and had been for many years – Lebanon since 1978, the rest since 1967.

Clearly, the EU has applied very different standards in its relations with Israel and Russia. Had the conditions applied to Russia in September 2008 been applied to Israel in November 1995, the EU would have refused to enter into negotiation with Israel about becoming a partner until all Israeli troops had been withdrawn from Lebanon, Syria and the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

How to Live in Your Car

Living in a car isn't something that anyone would recommend. However, when you get laid off, your emergency fund runs out, your home is foreclosed (or you get an eviction notice) and there's nobody to help, living in your car might be the only choice, especially if you don't feel safe at a local shelter. Unfortunately, in many places, sleeping in your car is not only frowned upon, but also illegal. Here's how to get by until something better comes along.

Early E-voting Results In Vote Flipping In Three States So Far

I noted in passing last week that West Virginia has had the distinct honor of being the first state in the union to report problems (surprise! surprise!) with its electronic voting systems. There are now also reports that similar problems have been happening in Tennessee and Texas as well. No doubt these won't be the last.
So what exactly has happened? Largely, the problem has been what's been dubbed "vote flipping" or "vote switching" -- which is exactly what it sounds like.

U.S. Confirms Strike On Syria That Killed Eight

A U.S. military official confirmed late Sunday an American helicopter attack in an area along Syria's border with Iraq, which left 8 people dead and three people wounded. Syria condemned the attack, which it called "serious aggression." The raid indicated the desert frontier between the two countries remains a key battleground, more than five years into the Iraq war.

The U.S. official said the attack targeted elements of a robust foreign fighter logistics network and that due to Syrian inaction the U.S. was now "taking matters into our own hands."

Defense Secretary John Hutton Backs European Army

In a wide-ranging interview with The Sunday Times, he said: “I think we’ve got to be pragmatic about those things. Where it can help, we should be part of it.”
His support goes beyond the public position of Gordon Brown, the prime minister, and will antagonise those who believe that further European cooperation will undermine Nato by excluding the United States.
Nicolas Sarkozy, the French president, has sought to develop Europe’s military structures with new headquarters and rapid reaction forces, each consisting of 1,500 troops from member countries.

Banks Exploit Legal Loophole To Seize Homes

Banks and credit card companies are exploiting obscure legal powers to seize the homes of thousands of people who cannot pay their credit card bills.
In some cases, people owing as little as £1,000 have been served with charging orders – the legal instrument enabling a creditor to order the sale of a property.

The practice has emerged days after Yvette Cooper, chief secretary to the Treasury, called on banks to do more to allow people to keep their homes.

According to the Ministry of Justice, 97,026 charging orders were granted by courts in England and Wales last year, a tenfold increase since 2000.

They allow financial institutions to order the sale of a property to pay off unsecured debts on credit cards, personal loans, store cards and car finance. Some will have been used only to threaten the debtor, or to levy a surcharge on the mortgage to recoup the debts.
Nationwide, the building society, and Northern Rock, which was nationalised earlier this year, are among the most aggressive in using the court orders.

Multi-millionaire Nat Rothschild 'Behind Osborne's £200,000 Gift'

Authoritative sources close to Mr Rothschild, a friend and ally of Peter Mandelson, say a £190,000 donation to Mr Osborne's office last year - declared as coming from Lady Serena Rothschild - was paid because she was urged to do so by her son, Nat.

Scientists Erase Specific Memories in Mice

It sounds like science fiction, by scientists say it might one day be possible to erase undesirable memories from the brain, selectively and safely.
Using a complex genetic approach, U.S. and Chinese researchers believe they have done just that in mice, but the feat is far from being tested on humans.
Study co-author Joe Z. Tsien, co-director of the Brain & Behavior Discovery Institute at the Medical College of Georgia, Augusta, says the "work reveals a molecular mechanism of how [memory deletion] can be done quickly and without doing damage to brain cells."

Obama And The Predicted World Crisis


It all began when former State Department chief, Colin Powell, endorsed Barack Obama for president on Meet The Press, October 19 2008. Obama responded by saying, “Powell will have a role as one of my advisers.”
Attached to his endorsement of Obama, Powell leaked an Obama-camp agenda about a coming crisis: “There’s going to be a crisis which will come along on the 21st, 22nd of January which we don’t even know about right now!”
On the very same day, (what a coincidence!), while at a Seattle fund raiser, Obama’s VP pick, Joe Biden, expanded on Powell’s prediction, by saying that the ‘crisis’ will be one of “international” proportions:

Congress: What Bernake And Paulson Aren't Telling You

Congress: Think.

Ben and Hank have both told you that the critical issue for the economy is for "lending to resume", stating that it has dramatically contracted.

If this was the truth, then Ben and Hank would have come to you for $700 billion in the TARP, but instead of TARPing the money, they would have asked for permission to use it to capitalize 10 new banks which would be immediately IPO'd off to the public with the stake being in the form of some kind of super-senior debt that held a coupon high enough to encourage immediate (or nearly-so) replacement with private capital.

This would have resulted in an aggregate of seven trillion worth of new lending capacity in the economy, an amount that, incidentally, would allow the full replacement of Fannie and Freddie as holders of housing debt with about $2 trillion left over for credit cards, auto and business loans.

That would have immediately solved the "credit freeze" problem.

So why wasn't this proposed?

This is the reason:
