The Cannabis Man - after a period of reflection and legal advice - has returned to the battle over the plant with renewed vigour.
In recent weeks he has investigated a myriad of possible ways forward and has taken decisive action to further his aims of having the plant investigated and discussed in a simple and honest way. He believes he is closer than ever to achieving his goal of taking some of the dishonesty out of the debate and, instead, framing it in a way that is both open and (…)

June 29, 2006 - "You are not being truthful about the purpose of your visit to Italy. What is your interest in diabetes and depleted uranium?" the Italian consul in Bombay demanded to know.
"I am just traveling to Italy to meet with Leuren Moret," the famous Indian doctor answered.
Leuren Moret recounted the episode in an interview June 29, 2006. She said, "The doctor had never mentioned either diabetes or depleted uranium."
The Italian government official was grilling one of the (…)

The Matrix of Mind Control of the New World Order is based on some simple elements common to all humans. Understanding these and teaching people what they are and learning how to apply them in useful manners to create change is the key then to a real evolution of humanity. Revolution - the social archetype of change promoted by the New World Order is based on control of feelings so we will start there...
Where do My Feelings Come From?
These are emotional reactions that are generated (…)

This July 4th, just like all that have gone before in the modern age, will be larded down with sentimentalism, bar-b-ques, VFW confabs and TV maudlin and treakly rhetoric about our freedoms and our "values". In addition there will be fireworks to honor the attack on Ft.Sumpter and Francis Scott Key’s imortal hymn.
But any real American, and especially any naturalized American, should know that a lot of the "values" we pretend to possess; those which continually support the great myth of (…)

Rape and murder inquiry is 5th in recent months
WASHINGTON, D.C. — (OfficialWire) — 07/02/06 — Listening to a popular radio talk-show yesterday, I heard the newsreader say (referring to a report of the rape and murder of an Iraqi woman and the murder of three members of her family):
"...and in what is yet another embarrassment for the U.S. Military..."
To be honest, I admit that I didn’t hear the rest of the story.
Embarrassment!?
Are Americans so accustomed to the illegal acts (…)

The Bush War On Liberty Intensifies By Chris Floyd June 29, 2006
Glenn Greenwald has the goods on the all-out war that the Bush Regime and its bootlicking sycophants throughout the right-wing media are waging against the free press. The recent "controversy" over the New York Times report on the Regime’s surveillance of bank records is, as Greenwald astutely notes, based entirely on outright falsehoods. It is also being deliberately stoked by the White House, whose lies about the (…)

The Neocon Battle For Media By Robert Parry June 30, 2006
Since the 1980s, when the neoconservatives burst onto the Washington scene, they have always understood the power that comes from controlling the flow of information that passes from the U.S. government to the news media and then to the American people. This transmission of information through Washington was to these savvy neoconservatives what a key railroad junction was to Civil War generals, a strategic switching point to be (…)

Thinking About Dilemmas By Fred Cederholm June 30, 2006
I’ve been thinking about dilemmas. Actually I’ve been thinking about the Fed’s Open Market Committee (FOMC), Bernanke, inflation/deflation, debt, global cash dependency, and US/us. There is a time value for money, and that is called interest. If you accumulated money by spending less than you’ve earned (or taken in), “interest” means extra income to you. If you owe money because you’ve spent more than you’ve taken in, “interest” is an (…)

STEALING MEXICO: Bush Team Helps Ruling Party "Floridize" Mexican Presidential Election By Greg Palast Friday, June 30, 2006 GEORGE Bush’s operatives have plans to jigger with the upcoming elections. I’m not talking about the November ’06 vote in the USA (though they have plans for that, too). I’m talking about the election this Sunday in Mexico for their Presidency. It begins with an FBI document marked, "Counterterrorism" and "Foreign Intelligence Collection" and "Secret." Date: (…)
