It is with a mixture of sadness and joy that I pass on the news that our friend and brother in Christ, Dr. Stanley Monteith, passed away yesterday morning: sad for his family, friends and the many loyal listeners to his Radio Liberty broadcasts; joyful in the knowledge that he rests in the presence of his Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Our prayers are for his family and close friends at this time.
On August 27, 2014, William W. Thompson, a Senior Scientist with the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC), issued a press release (captured here) stating his "regret" that he and his co-authors had "omitted statistically significant information in [their] 2004 article published in the journal Pediatrics." The omitted data, he said, "suggested that African American males who received the MMR vaccine before age 36 months were at increased risk for autism." (underlinings added)
David Hooper's recent "docu-thriller" on 9/11 is well put together and presents a good deal of science-based information regarding the "collapses" of the Twin Towers and Building 7 that seriously brings into question the credibility of the official narrative. Not aimed at the seasoned 9/11 researcher, but rather at those not yet questioning that Day, David Hooper's piece offers a very good resource to share with others.
I thought it worth drawing attention once again to this helpful podcast by Chris White. In his words:
"Continuing with the FAQ series, I answer one of the most common questions from new "truthers." There are many ways to answer this question so I took my time and tried to do so in a biblical way. I hope it helps anyone experiencing "Short Term New World Order Freak Out Syndrome." "
Veteran investigative reporter Rober Parry laments the anti-Russian hysteria of Washington and its mainstream media, accusing the Washington Post of telling the 'Big Lie' about Putin's supposed 'Big Lie' (that Russia is more victim than aggressor), and noting that, if certain belligerent US politicians believe what they say, they seem to believe in an unjustified - and, indeed, blush-making - conspiracy theory about Putin.
What's the secret to longevity? An age-old question (excuse me). One answer, apparently, might be standing up! According to a recently published article in the BJSM, there is evidence to suggest that "reduced sitting time" is "associated with telomere lengthening in blood cells".
Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity: "NATO and Ukraine : A Warning", CommonDreams.org (2 September 2014)
MEMORANDUM FOR: Angela Merkel, Chancellor of Germany
FROM: Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS)
SUBJECT: Ukraine and NATO
We the undersigned are long-time veterans of U.S. intelligence. We take the unusual step of writing this open letter to you to ensure that you have an opportunity to be briefed on our views prior to the NATO summit on Sept. 4-5.
Interesting question, but was US Homeland Security really bulit to fend off terrorists? I guess it depends on what's meant by "terrorist". As the semantic range of that word continues to expand to include just about anybody the elite classes disapprove of, the question has to be asked: Was "Homeland Security" really "Ministerium für Staatssicherheit" from the start?
Richard Gage (founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth) does a great job on C-SPAN's Washington Journal programme on the 1st of August, laying out many of the scientific reasons to question the official story about the destruction of WTC buildings 1, 2 and 7, and answering callers' questions with ease.
Evidence? Diplomacy? Statesmanship? Who needs any of that kind of thing when we have a Ministry of Truth telling us what to believe and whom to trust? So, let's all sit back, put the kettle on for a good ol' cuppa, and watch "the news" on telly and see what's going on in the world...
Waking up yet again to hear the BBC continue insinuating that Vladmir Putin is responsible, at least indirectly, for the crash of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH 17 - yet again appealing to the empty authority of one John Kerry...
I was recently a guest on Like Flint Radio, speaking with Garth Kennedy and Andie on the subject of the New World Order. In the "round table" discussion (the first I've done using this format) I draw from the many TMR interviews on that theme. The following is the description from Like Flint Radio:
A short video from the Corporate Europe Observatory reminds us that a key element in the advancement of the New Corporate-Fascist World Order is the so-called "free-trade" agreement. Warning about the proposed EU/US Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership [TTIP], or Transatlantic Free Trade Area [TAFTA]), they comment:
"A giant free-trade agreement is currently being negotiated between the European Union and the US government. Hidden within this deal are plans to include rules to give investors the right to sue governments. Many fear their inclusion presents a grave threat to democracy, public funds, and the development of public policy.
These rules, officially known as investor-state dispute settlement clauses, are found in many international trade and investment agreements, mostly signed since the 1990s. They give investors based in a country where the agreement was made the ability to sue another signatory state if its policies have resulted in reduced profits. Investors are increasingly using these clauses to sue governments for billions of dollars." *
Now that the US Justice Department's so-called "drone memo" [external PDF] is out (a remarkable result for the ACLU and New York Times that fought for its release), one might think that the US people might now be in a position at least to understand - if not agree with - the legal theories behind the Obama Administration's extra-judicial assassinations of US citizens.
Britain’s top counter-terrorism official has been forced to reveal a secret Government policy [external PDF] justifying the mass surveillance of every Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Google user in the UK.
This disturbing policy was made public due to a legal challenge brought by Privacy International, Liberty, Amnesty International, the American Civil Liberties Union, Pakistani organisation Bytes for All, and five other national civil liberties organisations.1
As the "1%" continues to syphon off the aspirations of the "99%", it's hard to imagine that plans are not afoot to pre-empt and neutralise that widespread social unrest which the managers of this corporate-fascist NWO must surely suspect is coming. Enter Minerva: a research programme of the US Department of Defense that is funding universities to study the social dynamics of civil unrest across the globe - in essence a militarisation of the social sciences.
Much as I like polar bears (who wouldn't?), I can't help being suspicious that their cuteness and cuddliness (at a distance!) makes them ideal "victims" for the global climate change supposedly caused (in large part) by carbon-dioxide-producing human beings. Maybe I'm wrong; I'm quite prepared to be. But a recent blog post by Dr. Susan Crockford (zoologist with published work on the Holocene history of Arctic animals, and an adjunct professor at the University of Victoria, British Columbia) does little to persuade me so.
Chris Hedges laments that the U.S. Supreme Court's recent rejection of an appeal in the case by prominent persons against the U.S. Government's N.D.A.A. of 2012 (National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012) Section 1021(b)(2), means that the U.S. military's ability to arrest "U.S. citizens and hold them indefinitely in military detention centers without due process" remains in legal force.
Living here in the UK (as I do), I am reminded by Michael Krieger that I am likely to be recorded by CCTV cameras about 300 times every day (on average). Quite believable; they seem to have been erected all over the place in recent years - parks - road corners - walls - all, no doubt, in the fight against crime and terrorism in this obscure Lancastrian backwater.
Veteran investigative reporter Robert Parry takes The New York Times to task for uncritically accepting as evidential photographs from the so-called "Ukrainian government" claiming to "document that the armed men who have taken over government buildings in eastern Ukraine are Russian combatants." Not only is this 'evidence' flimsy (on many counts), writes Parry, but we should also be aware of the role of chief military correspondent Michael R. Gordon in co-authoring this material, whose previous contributions to the false "aluminium tube story" (Iraq) and "vector analysis story" (Syria) should not be forgotten.
