”Well-what?” one of my readers exclaimed while reading “Western Walsinghamian states” in one of my last articles. The question was a sad testimony of the deepness of the manipulation we suffer under the hands of western states. A few weeks ago, an Israeli living outside of Israel for many years wrote me that my article “We, the People” finally answered the gap intentionally left by the Israeli education system. Until he read the article he couldn’t understand the importance of a constitution, which is exactly the situation that state wanted to create. Another unprepared citizen, ready to be manipulated for the personal profit of Officer Jacobson and his gang.

Without regard for the severe economic devastation and loss of life that a war with Iran would create, Israel’s agents in the United States continue to aggressively stoke the fires of anti-Iranian rhetoric and mobilize their minions on the floor of the House.  The Brzezinski-Soros machine failed in their attempt to effect regime change in Iran by way of a “color revolution” in the summer of 2009.  This has only emboldened the Israeli lobby to pursue more drastic measures. There is only one card left for them to play before provoking conflicts that will most certainly catapult the United States into direct military action against the Islamic state.

As an isolated incident, it would be appalling and criminal. As a regular occurrence, it's state-sponsored terrorism against defenseless children, subjected to barbarism by Israeli soldiers committing crimes against humanity to crush their will for wanting to live free on their own land - what Westerners take for granted; what Palestinians since 1948 haven't had, and since 1967, under military occupation denying their very humanity.

Nora Barrows-Friedman does heroic reporting for Pacifica Radio's KPFA Flashpoints Radio and as an activist/teacher/journalist in Occupied Palestine during regular visits. On March 8 on the Electronic Intifada, she wrote about Amir al-Mohteseb, a 10-year old Hebron child, arrested, detained, and savagely beaten after his 12-year old brother Hasan endured similar treatment a week earlier.

Alex Jones talks with film producer and author G. Edward Griffin. Mr. Griffin is the author of The Creature from Jekyll Island, a best selling landmark book on the Federal Reserve system. Griffin founded Freedom Force International, a libertarian activist network, in 2002.

You’ve might’ve seen all the apocalyptic programming about the “End Times”on the “History” Channel, maybe even heard some preacher man wailing away in the pulpit, or on the TV, right before hitting you up for more dineros. Yeah, it’s getting kind of old now. But did you ever stop to think that the USA might just be the real “Beast,” written about in Revelation?

One of my favorite writers, Mark Glenn, in his blog article “Calculating The Number of the Beast…” tells of receiving an urgent email from Bishop Hagee’s site asking for donations to support Israel’s Haitian relief efforts. Hagee asks for $18 out of us stupid schmucks, since that has some kind of religious special significance. In his article, Glenn wonders about the multiples of 3 sixes (mark of the beast) as well as the Jew’s insistence on the 6 million in the holocaust. 

Much as it pains me to do so I fear that I must praise a left leaning economist. Dean Baker, please stand up and take your bow. He’s told the truth, always a bad career move in the political arena, about the current financial crisis and recession.

We’re not deep in the economic doo doo because Wall Streeters are greedy, not because they’re incompetent and not because they’re evil. They may be all of these things but the ordure piled up around our ears is not because of their actions or existence, but because we’ve just had a huge housing bubble. Dean’s right about how we can prove this too, we can prove it in one word: Spain.

Iraq has been hit by a series of bloody attacks since polling stations opened for the country's parliamentary election. President of the Arab Lawyers Association, Sabah al-Mukhtar, believes this so-called 'democracy' in Iraq is a sham...

Israeli prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu once remarked to a Likud gathering that "Israel is not like other countries." Oddly enough for him, that time he was telling the truth, and nowhere is that more evident than with Jewish nationalism, whether or not one pins the "Zionist" label on it.

Nationalism in most countries and cultures can have both positive and negative aspects, unifying a people and sometimes leading them against their neighbors. Extremism can emerge, and often has, at least in part in almost every nationalist/independence movement I can recall (e.g., the French nationalist movement had The Terror, Kenya's had the Mau Mau, etc.).
