The New World Order, Bush – God’s Choice?

Part Fifteen Maneuvering the religious feelings of others to enhance one’s political career or influence voter acceptance is certainly not a new device. Hypocritically manipulating voters for any ulterior motive is an egregious yet common practice. However, integrity is not a characteristic that we usually attribute to politicians – despite personal claims of religiosity. In fact, such claims should immediately arouse suspicion. Political rhetoric is professionally contrived to evoke emotion and support. After an election,... Read article

The New World Order, Un-Fair & Un-Balanced

Part Fourteen Despite the guarantees of the First Amendment, America is one of the most propagandized countries on the planet due to government regulation, deregulation, selective licensing, discriminatory editing, substantial money from ideology-minded, tax exempt foundations, accelerated, unwarranted promotion of slanted print material, biased partisanship and network privatization. Freedom of the press (any and all media) could easily be redefined: the organizations, corporate, religious or government that maintain any... Read article

Video: The Oil Factor: Behind the War on Terror

After assessing today’s dwindling oil reserves and skyrocketing use of oil for fuels, plastics and chemicals, “The Oil Factor” questions the motives for the U.S. wars in the Middle-East and Central Asia where 3/4 of the world’s oil and natural gas is located. With exclusive footage shot on location in Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan, the film documents the spiraling violence now engulfing both Iraq and Afghanistan, a country conspicuously absent from the commercial media’s news segments. http://www.theoilfactor.com/ Loading...  Read More →

Video: America: Freedom to Fascism

Determined to find the law that requires Americans to pay income tax, Aaron Russo sets out on a journey. Neither left-wing nor right-wing, this startling examination exposes the systematic erosion of civil liberties in America. Through interviews with US Congressmen, a former IRS Commissioner, former IRS and FBI agents, tax attorneys and authors, Russo connects the dots between money creation, federal income tax, voter fraud, the national identity card (becoming law in May 2008) and the implementation of radio frequency... Read article

Hip Deep in the Trickle Down

HUZZAH! The old folks are getting a raise in their monthly pittance next year. We are to be eternally grateful that we are allowed to be blessed by the trickle-down that has finally reached us, Compassionate Conservatism at its best. With this Cost Of Living Allowance, their lives will be so much easier. But wait! Surely they will not be allowed to luxuriate for long with this untold wealth. As with the paychecks over the years, we must count the “deducts”. While the news reports that the average retiree receives... Read article

Collaborators of Catastrophe: Inside the Ministry of Truth

Storytellers of the American Narrative The creators of American reality, those propagators of charades and mirages who dwell inside the hallways of the Ministry of Truth – otherwise known as the Corporate Media – continue their dance of deception and whitewash, festering in their offices of propaganda, directing the narratives and the epics hundreds of millions of Americans consider truth. Much like the disappearance of warmth giving way to the crispness of cold arrives with each annual changing of leaves, so the remarketing... Read article

He’s B-a-a-a-a-c-k!

“Words ought to be a little wild, for they are the assault of thoughts on the unthinking.”~~John M. Keyne Much to the dismay of the Bush Crime Family and the Flying Monkey Right, their most fervent nemesis, talk-show host Mike Malloy, will return to progressive airwaves on Monday, Oct. 30 — a whole week-and-one-day before the mid-term elections. When you consider the corruption and scandals oozing like slime from the right over just the past week-and-one-day, Malloy’s return is not a moment... Read article

Video: Oil, Smoke & Mirrors

“Oil, Smoke & Mirrors” offers a bleaker view of present global circumstances than many of us would dare consider. It deals with issues that are largely marginalized, if not ignored, in the discourse of mainstream media and politics. However, as the film argues, it may well be that mediated political culture itself which, by sidelining some of the most challenging questions of historical truth in our time, poses the gravest threat to our future. “Oil, Smoke & Mirrors” is an independent production. The producer... Read article

The Military Commissions Act: Mary Stromberg Asks a Question

On October 18th Mary Stromberg, a grandmother from Auburn, Alabama wrote a letter to every educator in her state asking this question. Here is her letter: Dear Sir, I have been pondering the signing of the Military Commissions Act all yesterday and today……I can’t imagine what we will tell our school children about the change in the constitution. I am involved in church committees that will deal with high school and college aged students and we will be asked how this new law affects us as a country and as... Read article

Upon Red Rivers of Genocide

Living Inside Hell on Earth Daily upon the rivers that birthed civilization can the flow of crimson colored blood be seen journeying over liquid roadways through the land of Mesopotamia, its accumulated and growing volume the result of scattered bodies, bullet hole riddled men and bloated humans, all silent witnesses to the devastation that has cursed the Iraqi people. Tainted with the flow of human wickedness, the Tigris and Euphrates spread their polluted waters over the entire culture of Iraq, like sewers of human waste... Read article

The Coming Consciousness Shift

The trouble with living in, and commenting on, present society is that it is very difficult to get a birds-eye view of what is really going on. We are all products of our intellectual and social environment to some extent, and this severely limits our ability to see alternate developments outside the square of accepted opinion and media bias. Historians have got it over current media commentators precisely because when looking at present events, they should be able to take a longer view – and perhaps discern trends... Read article

Our “Enemy” Islam

There is no great lack of ignorance about the religion of Islam in the United States. In a recent New York Times editorial, entitled “Can You Tell a Sunni From a Shiite”, Jeff Stein relates having asked intelligence and law enforcement officials, as well as members of Congress, what the difference is between as Sunni and a Shiite. Not surprisingly, in his quest, he found that “Too many officials in charge of the war on terrorism just don’t care to learn much, if anything, about the enemy we’re... Read article

Video: The Ground Truth : The Human Cost Of War

Sometimes the greatest act of courage is to tell the truth In the opening scenes of Patricia Foulkrod’s powerful documentary, we’re introduced to a number of young soldiers who speak candidly and powerfully about the motivations that led them to join the military. As their stories unfold, we hear their surprised reactions to boot camp and combat training as they were taught to dehumanize their enemy, to “kill hadjis and ragheads.” “The Ground Truth” is a documentary that should be watched... Read article

The Power And The Glory

Memory is a fascinating thing. I’m often in awe of how memory works, and how it can hold on to such things as words, images, feelings and even sounds and smells. A few years ago I read a challenging book called “The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind” – by Julian Jaynes. The author postulated that we originally heard literal voices in our heads (one part of the brain talking to the other part), and that when these voices ceased (due to the increasing complexity of life),... Read article
