Phi Beta Iota: The President's declaration that the border is “safe” has inspired a sense of disbelief and even scorn among those who know that it simply is not so. This level of “cognitive dissonance” now characterizes informed public reactions to most of what the President says on any issue. There is only one cure: he needs intelligence with integrity. Or not.
Phi Beta Iota: This is a good initiative, something we should have been doing for decades. However, it does not go far enough. No such study can be credible without the participation of Brazil, China, Iran, Israel, and Pakistan, as well as major “interested parties” such as South Africa and Turkey. In short, we are long over-due for a Multinational Decision-Support Centre that does M4IS2 on all topics.
But as US action around the world aimed at eliminating the recently won right to self-determination for the peoples of Asia and Africa under the guise of “Western democracy” fighting “totalitarian communism”, which left a trail of millions murdered by the US and its allies (starting with Korea and moving to the Congo, to Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, and from Guatemala to Brazil to Argentina, Uruguay, El Salvador, and Chile, to Southern Africa and the Middle East), the cruel US invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan in the last decade have hardly changed this anti-democratic trend. Yet two important victories are always touted by supporters of US foreign policy on the democratic front: namely, the fall of the Soviet Union and the ensuing “democratisation” of Eastern Europe, and the end of Apartheid in South Africa. The US hopes that its policies in both places will guide it to achieve similar ends for those uprisings of the Arab world that it cannot crush.

Revelations of secret bombing in Yemen bring President Obama closer to Lyndon Baines Johnson and Richard Nixon and their secret bombings of Laos and Cambodia during the Vietnam War than is appropriate for any Nobel Peace Laureate. How many wars is this President going to start? As many as the American people will allow.
Der Spiegel reports that the Pentagon released the remaining papers of the Pentagon Papers while admitting that lies were told about the war. We know that. But here it is from them. The four volumes of the Gravel Papers can be accessed through Der Spiegel by clicking on the link below. How many more lies will the U.S. government tell the American people and the international community? As many as the American people will allow.
Are NATO's allies child soldiers? Isn't that against the law? So what else is new with this war? How long will war crimes and crimes against humanity be committed by NATO? As long as the American people allow these crimes to be committed.
When the Obama administration sent 24 Navy SEALs into Osama Bin Laden’s compound in Abbotabad, Pakistan, “Geronimo” was the code name for the mission. It was also the code the SEALs used to alert their commanders that they identified their target; and finally “Geronimo-E KIA” was the coded message to confirm that they had killed Bin Laden.
Tonight, Mike and Mark speak with Professor Jim Craven / Omahkohkiaaiipooyii (Big Bear Speaks), a life-long Native American activist, a Professor of Economics at Clark College, Tsinghua University in Beijing and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences about the Obama Administration’s use of “Geronimo” as a code word for Osama Bin Laden, and its’ historical significance.
Speaking at the 2011 Personal Democracy Forum, Doc talks about how power relationships work in markets vs how they should and could work. Markets are conversations, and they should be symmetrical conversations. Note his bit about how the language of marketing parallels the language of slavery….and the part where all their cookies end up giving them 50% completely wrong information.
There is something very strange going on in covert medical samplings of cattle, using helicopters and big portable labs. A very expensive operation, all over the western states. There is a very good chance that “Mad Cow” disease was caused by bio-chemical experiments that went out of control and went on to cause the Alzheimere's plague. One book that focuses on the proliferation of kuru mutations in the US, and that has established a solid argument for Alzheimers being a “man-made” disease, is Dr. Colm A. Kellerher's Brain Trust.
Separately there are now growing concerns that the H1N1 vaccination program–and other programs before it but with emphasis on innoculating the poor in the southern hemisphere–have been a form of planned eugenics. Below is one discussion recommended by top authors following this area.
Tainted nightmare
Dr. Sarah Stone, Pharm-D, Jim Stone, Freelance Journalist, Russ Clarke, Editor
“The H1N1 vaccination program, when put into the same frame as the engineered virus to go with it, appears to be a clear effort to divide humanity into two groups; those who have lost their intellect, health and sexuality via a tainted vaccination, and those who have not and are therefore superior.”
I met the story about the swine flu with great skepticism; it played like a story line in a B movie – Students go abroad for spring break. Students get the virus. Students bring it home. Worldwide pandemic starts. The story line was unbelievable, and I knew from day one that there was either no virus at all, and that it was just a “wag the dog”, or that a manufactured outbreak was intentionally released and underway.
Unfortunately the latter was true, and now we have an entirely new bug on our hands. It has never been seen before, and virologists have been quoted saying “where the hell it got all these genes from we don't know.” Extensive analysis of the virus has revealed genes from the original 1918 flu, the avian flu, and two new H3N2 viruses from Eurasia. All evidence points to the fact that the swine flu is indeed a genetically engineered virus.
This article is the result of a team effort intended to explore what the motive for releasing it may be, to warn you in advance of things to come.
Phi Beta Iota: What seems to clear to us, right up to the Fukushima nuclear disaster, is that elements of the US Government and elements of the European and East Coast elites, are “out of control.” Money has been directed at both bio-chemical experimentation on humans and animals and Earth experimentation (HAARP), and there is an arrogance among the elements in control–and an ignorance and lack of integrity among the US Government elements–that is enabling potentially catastrophic situations for humanity. The media is failing to observe and report the current medical sampling across the US west, and in the context of a government that cannot be trusted to tell the truth, one has to wonder if the Arizona fires are actually a massive decontamination of dead or euthenized diseased animals. The trust is gone. Only truth will get it back.
