At the G8 Summit held two weeks ago at Camp David, President Obama met with private industry and African heads of state to launch the New Alliance for Food Security and Nutrition, a euphemism for monocultured, genetically modified crops and toxic agrochemicals aimed at making poor farmers debt slaves to corporations, while destroying the ecosphere for profit. And Bono, of the rock group U2, is out shilling for Monsanto on this one. http://foodfreedomgroup.com/2012/05/29/u2-bono-monsanto-africa/At the G8 Summit held two weeks ago at Camp David, President Obama met with private... more

The first Iraq Genocide Memorial Day was held earlier this month in memory of those who died as a result of sanctions and the US-led invasion... On the 16th anniversary of Albright stating her endorsement of half a million dead Iraqi children as being “worth it” to continue the UN sanctions against Iraq, the silent holocaust of Iraq’s children is now to be annually commemorated. http://rickrozoff.wordpress.com/2012/05/29/madeleine-albright-and-the-iraqi-genocide/The first Iraq Genocide Memorial Day was held earlier this month in memory of those... more

The Century of the Self tells the untold and sometimes controversial story of the growth of the mass-consumer society in Britain and the United States. How was the all-consuming self created, by whom, and in whose interests? Freud provided useful tools for understanding the secret desires of the masses. Unwittingly, his work served as the precursor to a world full of political spin doctors, marketing moguls, and society's belief that the pursuit of satisfaction and happiness is man's ultimate goal. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article12642.htmThe Century of the Self tells the untold and sometimes controversial story of the... more

If nothing else, this war has been effective at one thing: it gives cover for the steady erosion of human rights. Indefinite detention and surveillance -- is there reason to believe any of this will end so long as the U.S. is at war? When the government signs off on twelve more years of active intervention, it essentially ensures that the next two or three presidencies will continue to wage egregious attacks on our freedoms. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/anthony-gregory/war-in-afghanistan_b_1539749.htmlIf nothing else, this war has been effective at one thing: it gives cover for the... more

Here's some news for those who still somehow believe the political left in Washington cares about the People. After U.S. Senator Rand Paul introduced an amendment that would have ended armed FDA raids on raw milk farmers and legalized free speech about the curative properties of medicinal herbs, nutritional supplements and superfoods, are you curious how many Democrats voted in favor of this? Zero. http://www.naturalnews.com/035977_farm_freedom_FDA_Senate.htmlHere's some news for those who still somehow believe the political left in... more

Let's make one thing crystal clear, no member of the US military contributes in any way whatsoever to protecting the freedoms of the American people. As a matter of fact, they are more likely to turn their weapons on you than they are to defend your Constitutional rights. The only people on this planet Earth who can affect your freedom are members of Congress, local legislators and the members of enforcement institutions who will blindly follow the rulers who sign their paychecks. And, while your beloved troops are murdering people around the globe, yes, I said murdering, your Congress and local legislators are eliminating your freedoms, en masse, without any intervention by our so-called protectors in the armed forces. http://tvnewslies.org/tvnl/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=20246:our-troops-do-not-protect-our-freedom-and-we-should-stop-thanking-them-for-doing-so&catid=19&Itemid=77Let's make one thing crystal clear, no member of the US military contributes in... more

So why the violent police oppression and government suppression of rights? As Dan Rather said on Bill Maher’s program, “Big business is in bed with big government.” A great portion of the federal government is sponsored by big corporations, so naturally, nearly every act of Congress and the Supreme Court is done so with the ultimate goal of deregulating industry and maximizing corporate profits at the expense of citizen and consumer rights. These puppets of industry occupying our government will discredit and crack down on anyone trying to stop, delay or reverse the process by any means necessary. http://www.commondreams.org/view/2012/05/23-4So why the violent police oppression and government suppression of rights?

Capitalism is a socio-economic system that eventually is run by the rich and takes advantage by the rich at the expense of the working class that is the prime mover of the system. Capital dictates the direction of Capitalism... Let me end this by making a huge claim. This isn't Democracy, it's fascism. http://www.opednews.com/articles/Capitalism-and-Socialism-by-Timothy-Gatto-120526-496.htmlCapitalism is a socio-economic system that eventually is run by the rich and takes... more

The dominant social theme of the power elite is that the system of "capitalism" is the best in the world and that developing countries ought to fully adopt it. In fact, this is happening but endorsement is a signifier of popularity not reality. The reality is that central banking-based economies don't work well and eventually suffer at least quasi-collapses. This is what the US – and the West – are going through currently. http://www.thedailybell.com/3926/100-Million-Americans-Out-of-Work-This-is-a-RecoveryThe dominant social theme of the power elite is that the system of... more

The Gates Foundation has reached its tentacles into every significant venture it can find. Genetic engineering, vaccines, and education are just a few examples. Every aspect of our lives has been in some way impacted by Foundation influence. In a previous article, Old-Thinker News exposed the campaign of tax exempt foundations – specifically the Gates and Rockefeller philanthropies – to vaccinate the world. http://www.oldthinkernews.com/2012/05/gates-foundation-hijacked-government-policy/The Gates Foundation has reached its tentacles into every significant venture it can... more

The USDA has been under fire recently for its admitted assault against nature, after multiple investigations have uncovered its deliberate tampering with both plants and animals alike. One such investigation has put an end to the mystery surrounding the death of millions of birds, with USDA documents revealing the organization’s role in the massive slaughter. In addition to the mass bird killings, it turns out the USDA was fully aware that a highly-popular herbicide chemical was a known bee-killer, which may have aided the bee decline. The USDA has also threatened the genetic integrity of the nation’s crops. Information has surfaced regarding the USDA’s illegal approval of Monsanto’s biotech crop, sugar beets. These crimes are simply an excerpt from the long list of USDA crimes that are continually being exposed. http://worldtruth.tv/usda-admits-exterminating-birds-crops-and-bees/The USDA has been under fire recently for its admitted assault against nature, after... more

Just after France legislators and officials moved to ban Monsanto’s genetically modified strain of GMO maize over environmental and health concerns, the European Union has decided to step in and re-secure Monsanto’s presence in the country — against the very will of the nation itself. This should come as no surprise when considering the fact that the United States ambassador to France, a business partner to George W. Bush, stated back in 2007 that nations who did not accept Monsanto’s GMO crops will be ‘penalized’. In fact, ambassador Craig Stapleton went as far as to say that the nations should be threatened with military-styled trade wars. http://naturalsociety.com/blatant-corruption-exposed-eu-blocks-frances-ban-monsantos-gmo-maize/Just after France legislators and officials moved to ban Monsanto’s genetically... more

The conflagration that could take place in America amid a lethally armed population defies the imagination, which is clearly why the police state is oiling its machinery to take on the outraged and weaponized. We would do well to keep the following images from Greece as an up-to-date reminder of what violence produces. http://www.activistpost.com/2012/05/days-of-decline-images-from-economic.htmlThe conflagration that could take place in America amid a lethally armed population... more
