WAR CRIES
By Peter Fredson
January 23, 2006
What is appropriate to describe the onset of a war? Crossing the Rubicon, The Die is Cast, The Flight of Birds signals disaster ahead, the Oracle has Spoken, or Crying Wolf?
Certainly Greek and Roman warriors had their rhetoric, their beating of shields with swords, the symbolic flight of arrows, the chest-beating, the swaggering and strutting, the bellowing and threatening.
In that respect we have not evolved a whit. The entire stage (…)

Why do Asians study in Australia, UK & US? PC racism of media lying over US war crimes
23 January 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
1 commentPC RACISM (politically correct racism) and cowardice in US-UK-Oz academia has resulted in the mal-education of a current establishment of PC racist journalists, academics and politicians who simultaneously DENY any racism, are COMPLICIT in horrendous mass murder in Asian wars and IGNORE the horrendous, continuing passive genocide of Asians in US wars in gross contravention of the Geneva Conventions (so far there have been 2.1 million avoidable post-invasion deaths and 1.7 million (…)

The Iran Trilogy : Timmerman , Corsi, and Weldon
22 January 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
2 commentsIsn’t it odd that three books have come out at the same time (Kenneth Timmerman’s "Countdown to Crisis " , Jerome Corsi’s "Atomic Iran" and Rep. Curt Weldon’s classic " Countdown to Terror" ) all positing the theory that Iran is preparing to deploy terrorists that will unleash a nuclear armageddon against the people of the United States. Funny none of these gentleman have apparently noticed that it is Israeli spies who have been caught engaging in surveillance of Naval stations in (…)

WHY SHOULD WE BE SURPRISED?

2 commentsBy William Fisher
Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, launched a media tsunami when he declared the Holocaust a myth.
But we shouldn’t be all that surprised. The Middle East is chockablock with Holocaust-deniers and Holocaust-minimizers. And it is not only the so-called Arab Street that has been infected. The disease has spread to many members of the Arab intelligentsia and to some of the area’s privileged elite.
I learned just how deeply embedded this attitude is during a (…) -
Would Sumate stand by and allow their fellow citizens to be contaminated?

US Senator Hillary Rodham-Clinton called the lack of body armor provided to our military personnel as being "unforgivable" this past week and wants an investigation into this matter. While our troops do need that body armor, it is like placing a band-aid on a gaping wound especially when it comes to the use of depleted uranium in Iraq. More on that later...
What I find unforgivable, especially after I wrote Blow Back! is where the CIA was used today in taking out the (…) -
PREPARE TO DEFEND THE PEOPLE OF IRAN FROM A NUCLEAR ATTACK!

It is not my wish to act like a doomsayer or to alarm anyone unnecesarily. In the dark times we live that would be a cruel and unforgivable thing to do.
The western countries have, in the most cynical fashion, chosen to demonize and persecute the Islamic world, to turn it into a new "menace" (now that the "Red Menace" no longer exists) in order to justify to their peoples a state of "permanent war". It is a very frightening situation in which all the people of this planet (…) -

Given the recent political death of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, many in Israel and the Occupied Territories are wondering who will the former premier’s spot. Likewise, Palestinians and Israelis are closely watching to see who will govern Palestinian society. The Palestinians engage in the political process first-with parliamentary elections on January 25. The question on how smoothly they will run still remains. It is of the utmost importance that Palestinian (…) -
Muravchick, American Enterprise Institute: My Comrades? My Ass!!!
21 January 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
Joshua Muravchik an American Enterprise Institute scholar wrote an article for, Commentary magazine, titled ’Comrades’. The title is a testimony to the authors earlier days as a Socialist, Communist sympathizer, not that there is anything wrong with that, unless they conspired to commit treason. The first paragraphs of Muravchik’s article, recounts, when the author wrote an article in 1972 for Commentary magazine attacking George McGovern. It is ironic that McGovern was a decorated war (…)

Real Reasons Why The United States Makes War
21 January 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
19 commentsWhen you hear Bush and his repetitions of democracy and freedom for all nations of the world, say to yourself, BULLSH*T!!! ...look for the real signs ...the true indicators of why the U.S. invades, attacks and occupies another country.
The reasons are multifaceted, though simply put, the aggressive foreign policies we are seeing, the covert activities and the military strong arming used against other nations by the United States are by all accounts, actions used to coerce, intimidate and (…) -
Collapse of U.S. Economy Imminent
21 January 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
405 commentsIn its attempt to establish a world empire dominating every nation on the planet, the U.S. has exhausted its ability to finance the expansion and the country now faces imminent financial collapse. From all indications, it looks like 2006 will spell the end for America.
Consider these five important points: Point #1 The U.S., Great Britain and Israel are preparing to attack Iran. As it appears the main reason for invading Iraq was to stop it from selling oil in Euros, likewise Iran has (…)
