Obama Resigns
by The Cerebral Aesthetic Vagabond
April 1, 2013
President Obama announced his resignation early this morning, shocking his supporters, many of whom were still clinging to “hope” that he would deliver the “change” he promised them.
Citing the interference of his job as president with his active schedule of golf, vacationing, television watching and smoking, the president said simply, “It’s just not worth it. Besides, the people of this country don’t appreciate me. I (…)

At Easter time the Christian world pauses to consider the Passion of Christ and the story of His crucifixion and resurrection. Mainstream media will cover this major annual religious event but will largely ignore a crucial message of the Passion story – our critical obligation to bear witness and speak out against evil.
I endlessly repeat a key message for the people of the endlessly war-making but internally peaceful and democratic nations of US Alliance: “Peace is the only way but (…)

Americans are Sick of Funding Israel

“Superman isn’t brave. He’s smart and handsome and even decent, but he’s not brave. Superman’s indestructible, and you can’t be brave if you’re indestructible.”
These words of wisdom were uttered by the late, great George C. Scott in the movie Angus—an unfairly forgotten gem from 1995 that deals with the high school trials and tribulations of the title character, Angus, a self-professed “fat kid who’s good at science and fair at football.”
Due to Angus’s size and ability to defend (…)

“Maps of Time. An introduction to Big History” by David Christian (a professor of Modern History at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia) (University of California Press) combines the history of the universe over 13 billion years with the history of man (Homo sapiens) over 200,000 years and the history of city-based human civilization over 5,000 years. This huge work fails absurdly in the important arena of moral compass because while there is nothing man can do in the face of the (…)

They are essentially dead men who just happen to breathe. That is the grim assessment of the legal representative for the inmates in the American concentration camp, otherwise known as Guantanamo Bay.
More than 11 years after this penal colony was opened on the American-occupied territory of Cuba, there remains some 166 prisoners who live in a nightmarish world of indefinite detention.

Statement from the organising group of the Delhi HM conference

Both propositions (…)

To believe in Christ is the gun under your bed to sleep like a baby
How many of you are sleepless pussies without a gun?
Learn to let go your physical weaponry, lose your fear and join forces with the most powerful ally and biggest physical and spiritual gun maker in the universe - Christ or God.
Your physical guns are rendered useless in defense against the anti-christ, because the anti-christ is a spiritual egregore which is abusing possessed (full of himself) politicians, bankster, (…)

by Boris Dolgov
In this article Boris Dolgov, a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Oriental Studies in Moscow, reports on his recent trip to Syria.
