Here is the latest in the GMO struggle. Although Big Food thwarted the labelling movement in both California and Washington by spending tens of millions of dollars — some sources say in Washington as much as a million dollars a day — it passed in Connecticut and Maine. Buyers, ordinary people, are increasingly concerned about knowing what is in their food. So now Big Food is going to try another tack, as this report describes.

God bless Secretary Gates! He is a man of honor, integrity and competence as well as a good judge of character. During one of the critical periods, Iraq surge if memory serves, he had heard about what my offices does and came down to meet us personally and take pictures with us. For the duration of his watch, DoD was well led.

Robert Gates, former defense secretary, offers harsh critique of Obama’s leadership in ‘Duty’

By Bob Woodward

 Washington Post, January 7

        In a new memoir, former defense secretary Robert Gates unleashes harsh judgments about President Obama’s leadership and his commitment to the Afghanistan war, writing that by early 2010 he had concluded the president “doesn’t believe in his own strategy, and doesn’t consider the war to be his. For him, it’s all about getting out.

Academic Zionist agents in US go public

It seems that the American Studies Association’s (ASA) boycott resolution vote has rattled the Zionist cages.

They have proved that Veterans Today was right with our claim that academic espionage was one of the key areas where Israeli intelligence has invested major resources for a long time.

The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations (CoP), commonly Presidents’ Conference, has been chosen by the Israeli lobby to lead the counterattack against the ASA historic resolution reported by Press TV last week.

World media described the resolution breakthrough as a sign that the tipping point toward a full Israel boycott was getting closer.

Johan Galtung: Battle for the Globe — the Subsconcious Contest Between DMA & HDT

Who runs the world? The Subconscious*)

Not one or a group of persons, not one or a group of countries. But they may serve as instruments for scripts engraved on the deeper recesses of their minds, not the conscious, easily retrievable ones. Scripts that are too trivial, obvious, too painful/shameful and hence repressed. Jung calls them archetypes; they often come in syndromes.

Imagine that deep down an actor–person, gender-generation-race-class, state-nation, region-civilization–is programmed for two forces in the world, one good the other evil, and sooner or later there will be a final battle for the victory of one over the other: the solution.
