Berto Jongman: Symour Hersh on Obama’s Wrong Red Line, CIA’s Illegal Rat Line and The Benghazi-Turkey-Syria Cluster

Seymour M. Hersh on Obama, Erdoğan and the Syrian rebels

In 2011 Barack Obama led an allied military intervention in Libya without consulting the US Congress. Last August, after the sarin attack on the Damascus suburb of Ghouta, he was ready to launch an allied air strike, this time to punish the Syrian government for allegedly crossing the ‘red line’ he had set in 2012 on the use of chemical weapons.＊ Then with less than two days to go before the planned strike, he announced that he would seek congressional approval for the intervention. The strike was postponed as Congress prepared for hearings, and subsequently cancelled when Obama accepted Assad’s offer to relinquish his chemical arsenal in a deal brokered by Russia. Why did Obama delay and then relent on Syria when he was not shy about rushing into Libya? The answer lies in a clash between those in the administration who were committed to enforcing the red line, and military leaders who thought that going to war was both unjustified and potentially disastrous.

Eagle: Empowering Your Health – Beyond Monsanto, Rockefeller and the American Medical Association

300 Million Talons... — 300 Million Talons…

Empowering Your Health: Beyond Monsanto, Rockefeller and the American Medical Association

By Kimberly Carter Gamble with Erin Breech

When your doctor tells you your prescription is approved by the American Medical Association (AMA), it’s intended to give you confidence. But what it really means is that the drug or procedure is endorsed and funded by the same corporations that endorse and fund Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) and other products that are harmful to your health. In fact, the AMA is in part financed by Pfizer, which owns Monsanto, the company that manufactured controversial and proven-to-be-dangerous products such as the insecticide DDT, PCBs, Agent Orange, and recombinant bovine somatotropin (a.k.a. bovine growth hormone) and is now the largest manufacturer of genetically modified seeds and the herbicide glyphosate, which GMO’s require. This is only one of the insidious connections between the AMA and corporations that cause, and prosper from, your ill health.

Here’s how it works:

Berto Jongman: Malaysian Airlines Round Two – Diego Garcia Chartering Cargo Ship Designed for Mass Body Transport?

07 Other Atrocities, Government, Military

New Evidence That Flight 370 Was Diverted To US Military Base

US Navy Cargo Ship Only Used To Carry People Or Bodies

Further evidence has emerged which may support the theory that Malaysian jetliner 370 and its 239 missing passengers and crew were taken to the US military base of Diego Garcia, located to the south of the Maldives in the Indian Ocean.

On 31 March 2014, the US Navy was looking to obtain the services of ‘one dry cargo vessel in support of operations between Singapore and Diego Garcia', according to the Fed Biz Opps website, which could be used to transport people or dead bodies.

The site adds that the US Navy's Military Sealift Command is looking for — or ‘soliciting' — contractual tenders for ‘Transportation, Travel, & Relocation services' under the title of ‘Diego Garcia Re-supply'.

In normal circumstances, this would not be unusual. However, in the light of other information that has recently emerged indicating that flight 370 may have been somehow diverted to the US airbase there, it may have more sinister overtones.

Columbia Law School in association with Software Freedom Law Center

From approximately 17:11 in NSA Spying talk 3 of 4 by Prof. Eben Moglen, a presentation sponsored by the Software Freedom Law Center of the Columbia Law School.

“The anonymity of reading is the central, fundamental guarantor of freedom of the mind. Without anonymity of reading there is no freedom of the mind, and there is literally slavery.”

This is at 6:35 from part 4:

“Collectively, we are trying to save the freedom of humanity and democracy, which cannot be otherwise saved. As we have seen, pervasive relentless surveillance destroys freedom of thought. And without freedom of thought, all other freedoms are merely privilege, conceded by government.”

Part I: Westward the Course of Empire

Part II: Oh, Freedom

Part III: The Union, May it Be Preserved

Part IV: Freedom's Future

SchwartzReport: Americans Say 75 Percent of Politicians Are Corrupted, 70 Percent Use Political Power to Hurt Enemies

Corruption, Cultural Intelligence, Government

We are in what is actually an amazing political situation; one that is very dangerous for a democracy. Neither conservatives nor social progressives have any respect for the political class, and a vast majority see them as corrupt whores for special interests.

Owl: Why Won’t US Arrest Its Bankers The Way Iceland Arrested Theirs? 10 More Rothschild-Connected Bankers Arrested in London

Commerce, Corruption, Government

Why Can't the US Arrest Our Corrupt Bankers Just as Iceland Arrests Their Corrupt Bankers?

Way to go Iceland! You are an example for all civilized countries to emulate:

“The truth of the matter is… No one, except the Icelanders, have to been the only culture on the planet to carry out this successfully. Not only have they been successful, at overthrowing the corrupt Gov’t, they’ve drafted a Constitution, that will stop this from happening ever again. “That’s not the best part… The best part, is that they have arrested ALL Rothschild/Rockefeller banking puppets, responsible for the Country’s economic Chaos and meltdown. Last week 9 people were arrested in London and Reykjavik for their possible responsibility for Iceland’s financial collapse in 2008, a deep crisis which developed into an unprecedented public reaction that is changing the country’s direction…”

(NaturalNews) As the conventional news coverage of Flight 370 becomes increasingly delusional and detached from reality, for the sake of all those families and loved ones still suffering I thought it important to publish a reality check that can help bring the discussion back to some common sense.

Let's cover five indisputable facts about governments, radar and aircraft:
