- It is more effective to manage society by mind control than by physical coercion. The events of 9-11 and the "war on terror" mostly are exercises in mass brainwashing. - Anthony J. Principi has held key positions at the Diamond Bar medical firm before and after heading the agency. Fees could exceed $1 billion. - Perhaps Target’s oddest singularity is the fact that it boasts one of the nation’s top forensics labs at its company headquarters. A product of its efforts to stop shoplifting and property destruction at its stores, its mastery of surveillance and investigative technology and strategy is now eagerly subscribed to by law enforcement agencies nationwide, including the FBI. - ...in a subtle but important shift...the Pentagon gained the leeway to inform - rather than gain the approval of - the U.S. ambassador before conducting military operations in a foreign country..."We do not need ambassador-level approval," said one defense official familiar with the order. - Description of the 14 Long-Term Bases in Iraq - Zarifa Dzhabieva, a former translator for the American embassy was found knifed to death in her own home. - At least 100,000 Iraqi civilians have died, most of them at the hands of U.S. forces - There is substantial evidence that thermite was used to cut the central support columns, which caused the towers to fall.
- It's not the $2 million tax refund. It's the $211,465. - There was a piece of evidence exposed in plain sight that might solve once and for all that no 757 hit the Pentagon. - Iraq war architect Paul Wolfowitz, who helped craft the suspension of military aid to countries that refused to exempt U.S. military personnel from prosecution by the International Criminal Court, has used his position as World Bank President to reward with debt relief those nations that signed the exemption agreements... - ...professionals counter-attack with leaks and stories linking Bush, Sr. and Goss to past drug smuggling. - Congress Is Giving Away the Internet, and You Won't Like Who Gets It - For a growing number of US workers, dreams of a decent retirement are quickly evaporating as companies shift retirement costs onto workers, in the form of deductions from already declining wages... - Something's VERY fishy about this. - As you probably remember, Moussaoui, not bin Laden or Bush/Cheney, is the only individual to stand trial (take the fall) in the U.S. for the 9/11 attacks. - If Armitage gets this kind of gilded wheeze for mere minioning in some of the most murderous operations of the past half-century, then great googily-moogily, what's George W. going to get, when he retires, for actually being the trigger-man for the world-convulsing killing spree in Iraq? - Without question, the Canadian government fell in line behind the United States and dispatched hundreds of troops, planes and warships to aid the American-led invasion of Afghanistan. - If Moussaoui's defence team don't tear this evidence to shreds, then they are working for the prosecution.
- Infant boys are placed at the mercy of the doctors or mohels, and the idea that men are stronger seems to apply even to helpless newborn babies. - 2005 was a good year for bad corporations. - Developing nations left the weekend's joint meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF) with few gains, while the rich countries that dominate the boards of the two lenders managed to shape the agenda almost entirely to serve their own interests... - Iraq is subsumed by a wave of violence which radiates directly from the White House. Don’t blame the Iraqis.

That's not a REAL choice. - Support my political opponents and you'll get canned like Mary McCarthy. And if we need to make up a lie to justify it, then by God, that's what we'll do. - One of the consistent deformities in American policy debate has been challenged by a couple of professors, and the reaction proves their point so neatly it’s almost funny. - The Crass Vigilance of The Soft Drink Molochs and Their Slow Throttling of the American Public For Loaves and Fishes - Like everything else, Rumsfeld’s promise to "transform" the military has been a lie. The Defense Secretary never had any intention of converting the military into "smaller, more agile units". From the very onset his goal has been to create a global strike-force that operates as the enforcement-arm of the multinational corporations. - With "progressives" like this, hyping the "danger" of Iran and refusing to "take any option off the table," why worry about FOX News and the right wing? - ...even if he is Cruella’s favorite devil-son, he’s politically irrelevant to the well-entrenched American foreign policy. - As in other parts of the world, the U.S. continues to tout its support of democracy as the justification for intervening in the internal affairs of a sovereign state, an act that is in itself inherently undemocratic.

- Corporate whores in Congress have officially inaugurated the process of turning the internet into another platform for ephemeral junk culture, an interactive version of television where there are 500 channels and nothing on. - Presidential elections will not resolve this issue, the system is broken. There are no political solutions. We should be looking at developments in Nepal to understand how this dilemma will eventually be decided. - Inured to moral horror by half a century of outrages committed by the "National Security" complex, the Establishment – along with the media and vast swathes of the population – can no longer discern the poison in the air they breathe. It just seems normal. - Big Oil has been robbing us blind for over a century. - Or, How We've Learned To Tell When Bush Is Lying? - Look at the image...(of) Al-Zarwaqi firing a machine gun.

Bush would like to sell you the idea that pesky environmental regulations are keeping gas prices high. - What role did Tom DeLay and Jack Abramoff play in allowing American companies to profit by exploiting tens of thousands of female workers in the Northern Marianas Islands? - While the anti-harboring principle is cited when invading Afghanistan and Iraq, the Bush administration continues to turn a blind eye to the presence of right-wing Cuban terrorists living in the United States. - If a huge Boeing 757 had crashed against the side of the Pentagon fortress, we would have seen some aircraft debris on the helicopter landing pad.

A false flag op is when a nation attacks itself but makes it appear that an enemy has committed the attack. This way it stirs its more or less peace-loving people into going to war with the demonized "enemy." It’s false flag ops 1.1. - So what do they want you to believe? - If you take a minute to visit the F.B.I. website and check out their Most Wanted list, you will run across a familiar face...
- First it was Osama bin Laden, then Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, and now Ayman al-Zawahiri.

W. Bush's activities in Texas in 1963 to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas on November 22 of that year.
