The Revolutionary Distemper in Syria That Wasn’t

Documents prepared by US Congress researchers in 2005 revealed that the US government was actively weighing regime change in Syria long before the Arab Spring uprisings of 2011, challenging the view that US support for the Syrian rebels was based on allegiance to a “democratic uprising” and showing that it was simply an extension of a long-standing policy of seeking to topple the government in Damascus.

The Urge to Splurge
Why Is It So Hard to Reduce the Pentagon Budget?
By William D. Hartung

Through good times and bad, regardless of what’s actually happening in the world, one thing is certain: in the long run, the Pentagon budget won’t go down.

Dishonest, we are.

Lies Breed Lies: Brain May Get Desensitized to Dishonesty

“It is likely [that] the brain's blunted response to repeated acts of dishonesty reflects a reduced emotional response to these acts,” Garrett said.

Phi Beta Iota: The public has been dumbed down deliberately, with a mix of deliberate rote learning, poisoned air, food, and water, and a complicit media that entertains rather than informs. Government has chosen to focus on spending money for special interests rather than making decisions in the public interest. Lying is endemic within US culture.

Sepp Hasslberger: CDC Vaccine “Science” a Massive Conflict of Interest

07 Health, Commerce, Commercial Intelligence, Corruption, Government

The American Centers for Disease Control are pushing vaccines with all their might. Yet they are also the institution that is supposed to be responsible for vaccine safety. Something definitely is not working properly here…

CDC vaccine science covers up giant conflict of interest

If you wanted to buy a product, and the main source of research on the product was the company selling it, would you automatically assume the product was safe and effective? But you see, that’s the just the beginning of the problem. Suppose the company’s research was cited thousands of times in the press, as the authoritative standard of proof—and anyone who disputed that research was labeled a conspiracy theorist and a quack and a danger to the community and an anti-science lunatic. Would you begin to suspect the company had some awesome media connections? Would you suspect some very powerful people were backing the company? This is exactly the situation with the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC)…

Reports of Potential Voting Trickery in 2016 Presidential Election

Norie Huddle: RIGGED — Electronic Voting Machines are Both Officially Rigged and Easily Hackable By Others

Corruption, Government

The first video is short, clear and the implications are huge and underscore what Trump has been saying in simple terms anyone can understand. The woman who cries is expressing what so many are waking up and feeling.

TEST caught on video: VOTING MACHINE SWAPPING RESULTS OF VOTES

A mini-election test conducted on a random voting machine revealed frightening results – the votes were not counted correctly. One test voter was so shocked and upset, she broke down in tears.

Watch video (8,569,704 views to date)

The second video is testimony made in 2006, by an IT professional explaining how machines are hacked. Again, he's very clear, tells his story SUPER well in a way that most anyone can understand. Time for a crowd-funded class action lawsuit?

Del Spurlock: Lies of State – Spinning the Inhumanity of Our National Policies

Spinning the Inhumanity of our National Policies

Reproduced with permission from original as posted.

We are failing to govern ourselves. The concept of American democracy has been driven from the field by the public relations industry. The balancing act between the poles of public and private interests, performed so deftly by Chester Bowles, William Benton and Harold Burson in the 1950s to protect us from the deceptions of our leaders and the cynicism of the PR industry founded by Edward Bernays, has collapsed. Spinning the morally indefensible is now embedded in our civic DNA.

From its inception, the leaders of our republic chose misleading words to mask the crimes against humanity committed by the markets they created and profited from:

Slavery—“our peculiar institution of other persons”
Freedom seeking men and women—“fugitives”
Peace-loving, welcoming, conciliatory people of the land—“savages”
