This is a lot bigger than me. They're not just persecuting me. This is not just my struggle, I'm not just doing this for myself... This is life and death for the world. These God-damn Jews have to be stopped. They're a menace to the whole world." -- Bobby Fischer Netanyahu: more settlements are “decisive answer” to terrorism Speaking at the Jerusalem Day ceremony today, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to continue to expand settlements in the occupied east of the city, saying this was a “decisive answer” to terrorism. Netanyahu went on to talk up the 1967 conquest of the east and the “reunification” as “drama on a Biblical scale,” insisting they will never again allow the city to be divided. During the last days before the election, Netanyahu vowed to dramatically expand settlement building in East Jerusalem, and to do so in such a way as to make Palestinian statehood including it impossible. Senator Reads the TPP and Exposes Its Contents; Other Elected Officials Should Do the Same Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) is one of the few members of Congress who has taken the time to jump through the hoops and read the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). But, he has gone a step farther than other members - he told members of Congress what he read. He told the truth about what the TPP says and why Congress should oppose it in a five page letter to his colleagues. Author of Seeds of Deception and Genetic Roulette talks about the war on GMO DHS is supposed to be the lead federal agency responsible for cyber. What an embarrassment. Death Penalty for Boston Marathon Suspect Drives Nail in the Coffin of US Justice System With the jury’s verdict now in sentencing an innocent man to death, the US justice system is sinking ever lower in its moral decay. So many giant holes in the prosecution’s case were simply ignored. Photos of the shredded backpacks allegedly containing the bombs never matched the backpacks of the Tsarnaev brothers. But the fact that they did match a number of Kraft International private security contractors photographed at the scene meant nothing. When evidence of a staged “realistic” enacted event complete with role actors and stagehand direction, fake bombs and fake blood, pre-marathon announcements of a “bomb drill” confirmed by a public notice in the Boston Globe, and no real evidence that either Tsarnaev brother committed a crime as much as admitted by the feds, there is absolutely no justice left in America today! WTO Ruling on Meat Labels Exemplifies Corporate Profits Trumping Democracy In a decision food safety and consumer advocates are calling a blow to animal welfare, environmental standards, and democracy, the World Trade Organization on Monday ruled that U.S. labels on packaged meat indicating where cows, chicken or other animals were born, raised and slaughtered are in violation of international trade pacts because they place foreign imports at an economic disadvantage. FLASHBACK - THE LIE OF THE (LAST) CENTURY It is inescapable historical reality that leaders of nations will lie to their people to trick them into wars they otherwise would have refused. It is not "conspiracy theory" to suggest that leaders of nations lie to trick their people into wars. It is undeniable fact. This brings us to the present case. Did the government of the United States lie to the American people, more to the point, did President Bush and his Neocon associates lie to Congress, to initiate a war of conquest in Iraq? This question has been given currency by a memo leaked from inside the British Government which clearly indicates a decision to go to war followed by the "fixing" of information around that policy. This is, as they say, a smoking gun. But the fact is that long before this memo surfaced, it had become obvious that the US Government, aided by that of Great Britain, was lying to create the public support for a war in Iraq. The corporate media is parroting the "bad intelligence" excuse for what is now acknowledged to have been a disastrous decision to go into Iraq. But there was no bad intelligence. The real goal of the war was to end Iraq's selling of their oil for the Euro and the claims about nuclear weapons was the lie told to you to trick you into sending your children to be killed and crippled for the US dollar's continuing hegemony! Huge spike in neurological disease after Fukushima — 600% rise in disorders causing hearing loss, dizziness among evacuees — Cases of heart disease, brain infarction also up — Physicians: "Great concern there will be additional health hazards” Shoppers could soon have difficulty finding meat's origin Shoppers could soon have a harder time finding out where their red meat comes from. The World Trade Organization ruled Monday that the U.S. "country of origin" labels put Canadian and Mexican livestock at a disadvantage. The current labels say where the animals were born, raised and slaughtered. The Obama administration has already revised the labels once to try to comply with previous WTO rulings in favor of Canada and Mexico. Since those efforts didn't work, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack says Congress will have to weigh in to avoid retaliation — such as extra tariffs — from the two neighbor countries. UK legal migrants 'too scared to seek medical help' A charity group says migrants who are in possession of proper documents are still afraid of arrest and thus avoid seeking vital medical care.

The Phony ‘Bad Intel’ Defense on Iraq Presidential aspirant Jeb Bush this week may have damaged his chances by flubbing the answer to an entirely predictable question about his big brother’s decision to attack Iraq. US Blinks in Face-Off with Russia After staring Russia in the face for the best part of a year, the poker-faced Americans finally realized they are holding a bunch of worthless cards. And the Americans blinked. Last week started with US Secretary of State John Kerry coming to Russia to lay a wreath for the millions of Soviet soldiers who gave their lives in the historic defeat of Nazi Germany. Then the week ended with Kerry’s deputy at the State Department, Victoria Nuland, flying to Moscow to meet Russian officials to discuss implementation of the Minsk ceasefire in Ukraine. That’s what you might call «America blinking first» in its high-stakes and reckless faceoff with Russia over the Ukraine crisis.

Detroit water shutoffs set to resume; groups urge plan Water shutoffs are expected to resume as soon as this week for delinquent residential account holders in Detroit, prompting some to renew the call for a water affordability study. City Councilwoman Raquel Castaneda-Lopez joined a group of activists who gathered outside City Hall Monday to advocate for a water affordability plan, saying the assistance model long-used in Detroit is a “broken” one and may not be the best strategy under the new Great Lakes Water Authority set to take effect on July 1. 53 Admitted False Flag Attacks Not Theory … Admitted Fact There are many documented false flag attacks, where a government carries out a terror attack … and then falsely blames its enemy for political purposes.

America Under Israeli Occupation Prepare for the Battle of Baghdad: ISIS hold victory parade after taking key city of Ramadi just 60 miles from capital in an orgy of violence and beheadings ISIS could march on the Iraqi capital Baghdad within the next month after capturing the nearby city of Ramadi - where it has already carried out beheadings and a twisted victory parade - experts have said. Mutilated bodies scatter the streets of the 'Gateway of Baghdad', where Islamic State slaughtered around 500 and forced over 8,000 to flee their homes over the last few days. Now ISIS has released images of militants celebrating, children wielding automatic weapons and a fleet of pick-up trucks carrying its jubilant fighters through the bloodstained streets of Ramadi.

Israeli Defense Forces Major General Laughs: "We Israelis, we are sure that we're the center of the world; it's natural that candidates are coming to Israel. And we like it." In a recent corporate news article about Scott Walker's trip to Israel, several Israel leaders gave some very revealing quotes regarding the upcoming U.S. presidential elections. An Israeli professor said that Obama and Democrats are seen as "isolationists" by Israelis. An Israeli settler leader was quoted as saying "people on the right in Israel feel favorable toward Rubio and, to a certain extent, Bush." He added "We definitely can live with a Clinton administration." A major general in the IDF Who toured Israel with Walker was quoted as laughing: "We Israelis, we are sure that we're the center of the world... From our point of view, it's natural that candidates are coming to Israel. And we like it because we think it's very important for us and in a way we think that Israel is a strategic asset." Bankers Arrogantly Proclaim Their Innocence - Part 1 UK government quietly passed new legislation that exempts GCHQ, police, and other intelligence officers from prosecution for hacking into computers and mobile phones While major or controversial legislative changes usually go through normal parliamentary process (i.e. democratic debate) before being passed into law, in this case an amendment to the Computer Misuse Act was snuck in under the radar as secondary legislation. According to Privacy International, "It appears no regulators, commissioners responsible for overseeing the intelligence agencies, the Information Commissioner's Office, industry, NGOs or the public were notified or consulted about the proposed legislative changes... There was no public debate." Chicago residents speak on police torture at Homan Square "black site" A string of revelations by the Guardian newspaper have exposed widespread police torture by the Chicago Police Department (CPD) at a “black-site” detention facility known as Homan Square.

More Evidence of Israel’s Dirty Role in the Syrian Proxy War Video footage surfaced last week showing the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) treating a wounded anti-Assad Syrian rebel, following a UN report at the end of last year which found that the IDF and the Syrian rebels (including ISIS) were in regular contact. The Times of Israel reported on this latest video in an article titled,IDF posts footage of medics saving Syrian rebel in Golan: The Emperor Beckons Us to the Graveyard Those very few words of Obama’s, his most widely circulated PR effort to garner support for the TPP (Trans Pacific Partnership) and thoroughly representative of the thinking of our imperial elite, are so revealing, so wrong and so dangerous on so many levels that one scarcely knows where to begin. In fact they carry the seeds of our destruction. And they are focused on China. War On Drugs: Colorado To Crackdown On Medical Marijuana Corporate Trade Agenda Attacks Americans’ Right to Know Today, the World Trade Organization (WTO) ruled that mandatory country of origin labels (COOL) rules for meat and poultry that went into effect in the United States in 2013 are not compliant with global trade standards. The WTO continued to find that the goal of providing information to consumers was compliant with international trade rules, but it decided narrowly that the implementation of the rules for COOL labels negatively impacted livestock imports from Canada and Mexico. Questions over Al Sharpton's daughter's $5million 'sprained ankle' lawsuit against New York City after she posts photo of herself climbing a MOUNTAIN in Bali Dominique Sharpton, 29, has filed a $5million lawsuit against New York City alleging she was 'severely injured, bruised and wounded' when she stumbled over uneven pavement at the corner of Broome Street and Broadway downtown last year. Just this Saturday however she posted a photo to Instagram that showed her and a friend shortly after they had hiked to the peak of a mountain in Bali, with both women smiling as they pose above the clouds. Proposed surveillance limits could force US to 'go dark', says Mitch McConnell Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell said on Sunday that legislation concerning the federal government’s powers of surveillance that was passed by the House of Representatives this week could cause the country to “go dark” when it comes to collecting Americans’ phone records. McConnell said that if such a state of affairs came about, “we’ll not be able to have yet another tool that we need to combat this terrorist threat from overseas”. Mitch, you are a tyrant's wet-dream! First, under the Fourth Amendment, the government is not allowed at will to peek into our private lives, drool over naked pictures of our lovers, steal our business secrets, (all of which they have been caught doing) etc. Second, in 12 years of living under tyranny, the NSA, TSA, DHS, FBI, CIA have not actually prevented any terror attacks. Yes, they have set up a bunch of innocent patsies to be arrested for propaganda purposes, but no real terrorists, and the reason is simple. As we demonstrated 6 times over at my website, anyone with modest programming skills can write systems of encryption the NSA simply cannot break. Which means the entire surveillance system you are so in love with is only able to spy on law abiding citizens. That means it is a hideous waste of time, money, manpower, and other resources. But Mitch, I will make you a deal. We The People will allow total surveillance over our phone calls and emails and texts ... as soon as all members of Congress allow We The People the same access to your emails, phone calls, and texts.

Saudi Warplanes Bomb Yemen's Capital in Violation of Truce The Saudi-led air strikes targeted the capital on Sunday. Sounds of explosions were heard across Northern Sana'a. Saudi Arabia launched its bombing campaign against Yemen on March 26 in an attempt to restore power to fugitive President Mansour Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh. Hadi stepped down in January and refused to reconsider the decision despite calls by Ansarullah revolutionaries of the Houthi movement. Despite Riyadh's claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi warplanes are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures. It is simple. Yemen's people want to rule Yemen for themselves and not live under a US puppet. The US is using Saudi Arabia as a proxy to hide the fact that they are having to go back into Yemen only a few years after the "successful" intervention that put the US puppet into power. Belligerent US Refuses To Cede Control Over IMF In Snub To China So while the AIIB certainly represents an attempt on China’s part to realize its regional ambitions (what we’ve described as the establishment of a Sino-Monroe Doctrine) and carve out a foothold for the yuan on the global stage, it’s also a product of Washington’s failure to adapt to a changing world. That is, the establishment of new supranational lenders suggests the US-dominated multilateral institutions that have characterized the post-war world are proving unable (for whatever reason) to meet the needs of modernity. Nowhere is this more apparent than the IMF, where reforms aimed at making the Fund more reflective of its membership have been stymied by Congressional ineptitude for years. Study: One in four Americans who purchased insurance still can't afford medical care One in four people who bought health insurance on their own couldn’t afford medical care last year, according to a study released Thursday that shows out-of-pockets costs are still getting between Americans and their doctors despite Obamacare’s progress in cutting the ranks of the uninsured.

Humanitarian Pause Is Over, Arab Coalition Resumes Airstrikes in Yemen The Arab coalition's aircraft renewed strikes against targets in the southern Yemeni city of Aden after the expiration of a five-day humanitarian truce in the country, a senior Yemeni army official said Monday. Not ISIS? Saudi Arabia To Execute & Display Beheaded Body Of Political Activist In Public "Crucifixion" One of the ways that the U.S. government most clearly expresses its deep dedication to global human rights, democracy and decency across the globe is via its unwavering support for the feudal, inhumane tyrannical monarchy of Saudi Arabia. A monarchy that also increasingly seems to have played a key role in the attacks of September 11, 2001. The Saudis have received a lot of bad press as of late due to it consistently breaking its own records for beheadings, but sometimes a simple beheading isn’t sufficient. In a punishment known as “crucifixion,” the executed person’s beheaded body is placed on public display for three days. Currently facing this fate are three political activists, including two children. "You don;t understand. ISIS' beheadings are BAAAAAAAAD, while Saudi Arabia's beheadings are GOOOOOOOOOOOD! See?" -- official White Horse Souse Hillary Clinton personally took money from companies that sought to influence her Almost a decade ago, as Hillary Clinton ran for reelection to the Senate on her way to seeking the presidency for the first time, the New York Times reported on her unusually close relationship with Corning, Inc., an upstate glass titan. Clinton advanced the company's interests, racking up a big assist by getting China to ease a trade barrier. And the firm's mostly Republican executives opened up their wallets for her campaign. During Clinton's tenure as secretary of state, Corning lobbied the department on a variety of trade issues, including the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The company has donated between $100,000 and $250,000 to her family's foundation. And last July, when it was clear that Clinton would again seek the presidency in 2016, Corning coughed up a $225,500 honorarium for Clinton to speak. Hollande, the Clintons and imperialism in Haiti In his book The Black Jacobins, a history of the Haitian revolution against France, C.L.R. James remarked that “a great empire and honest minds go ill together.” To match dishonest minds with empire in today’s Haiti, one need look no further than French President François Hollande and the representatives of Washington and Wall Street, Bill and Hillary Clinton. 1921: Black Business District in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Attacked, Aerially Bombed and Razed, Victims Dumped in Mass Graves An otherwise poor and uninformative documentary (funded by Pennsylvania Public Television and Corporation for Public Broadcasting) on the US bombing and burning alive of 11 residents, adults and children, of the MOVE house in Philadelphia, 1985, begins with one minute (10:30 to 11:30) on the rarely-mentioned 1921 onslaught, aerial bombing, and incineration of the “Black Wall Street” business district of Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1921, by white mobs, including the KKK and government forces. Military push for emergency robots worries skeptics about lethal uses It’s 6-foot-2, with laser eyes and vise-grip hands. It can walk over a mess of jagged cinder blocks, cut a hole in a wall, even drive a car. And soon, Leo, Lockheed Martin’s humanoid robot, will move from the development lab to a boot camp for robots, where a platoon’s worth of the semiautonomous mechanical species will be tested to see if they can be all they can be. Next month, the Pentagon is hosting a $3.5 million, international competition that will pit robot against robot in an obstacle course designed to test their physical prowess, agility, and even their awareness and cognition. US Christians numbers 'decline sharply', poll finds The number of Americans who identify as Christian has fallen nearly eight percentage points in only seven years, according to a new survey. Pew Research Center found that 71% of Americans identified as Christian in 2014 - down from 78% in 2007. In the same period, Americans identifying as having no religion grew from 16% to 23%. Fifty-six million Americans do not observe any religion, the second largest community after Evangelicals. Saudi Arabia to buy nuclear bombs from Pakistan: report Saudi Arabia will join the nuclear club by buying “off the shelf” atomic weapons from Pakistan, US officials told a London newspaper. The Saudis — who financed much of Pakistan’s nuke program — are fearful of international efforts to keep its enemy Iran from acquiring a bomb, the Sunday Times of London reports. The Saudis think the deal, backed by President Obama, will actually accelerate Iran’s nuke push. "What? You couldn't buy form us? We can get you the nukes wholesale!!!" -- Nodding Yahoo Ukraine crisis: 'Russian special forces' captured Ukraine's military says its forces have captured two Russian soldiers fighting with rebels in eastern Ukraine. "Two? TWO?!? My GAWD it's Armageddon! Launch the nukes!!!!" -- Official White Horse Souse IMF admits Usury is the Root of All Evil Well, not in so many words, but more or less to the same effect. Here’s the little gem penned a couple of years ago, by a blogger after my own heart, who likes to let bankers incriminate themselves, in their own words, albeit in forked tongue: There is much of interest in the IMF’s Financial System Stability Assessment of Australia, published in November 2012. The following line in particular caught my eye, and is worthy of comment. The context is the IMF’s consideration of what are the “key risks” to our banking system (page 10-11): Pressure on the net interest margin, which accounts for almost two-thirds of operating income, has the potential to encourage more risk-taking by banks in order to preserve profitability. The last time the U.S. economy shrank this much in a single month, it was in a recession Garland Shooting Event Revised – Shining a Spotlight on FBI’s Role Before Attack According to official reports over the last week, key details concerning the shooting outside the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas – have suddenly changed… This past May 3rd, it was reported that two gunmen opened fire outside of a cartoon ‘art’ exhibition and “free speech contest” featuring images of the Prophet Muhammad in Garland, Texas. Incredibly, government scribes have change their official story line this week, with investigators now saying that the two named suspects, Elton Simpson and Nadir Hamid Soofi were shot dead, but not by a single traffic officer as was originally stated by authorities, by by heavily armed SWAT Team officers. This latest change radically differs from what the Garland Police Department had originally released shortly after the incident occurred. And raises the question of how the SWAT team knew to be there for an incident that lasted all of 15 seconds! The world of Globalism, the galaxy of slavery I’ve been chipping away and drilling the rock of Globalism for some years now. At times, connections between my various investigations seemed uncertain, but eventually the picture swam into view. Medically caused death and destruction. Toxic drugs. Toxic vaccines. Genetically modified food plants and their poisonous pesticides. International trade treaties. Manufactured unemployment. The pseudoscience of psychiatry. Political and media dupes. The art of group propaganda. Indoctrination and lowered IQ through education. Television mind control. Banking. Wall Street. Technocracy. And dozens more subjects. The carrier of the Globalist world was chosen at the end of World War 2. It already existed, of course. But now it was seen as the prime instrument: The megacorporation... The Fed knows this bubble is too Big to Pop Warning! You WILL Be Interrogated for Driving Within 100 Miles of Canadian Border How obeying the law will no longer be enough to protect you from the police Even if you are not suspected of committing any crime, you could be hit by orders preventing you from speaking in public or associating with specific people. The planned "snooper's charter" will give the police the right to read your private messages, even if you're not suspected of any wrongdoing. Now, it seems that if they see anything they don't like (even if it isn't criminal) they won't be obliged to leave you alone. We know that the Tory government are also planning to scrap the current Human Rights Act and replace it with one that would introduce a "threshold below which Convention [human] rights will not be engaged" - allowing UK courts to strike out certain cases.

UK Prime Minister David Cameron has promised to honour his pledge of an extra £8 billion per year to the National Health Service (NHS) by 2020, whilst creating a “sevenday” health service. "Failure to Obey" Documentary on Checkpoint Refusal (full movie) One hundred twenty kilometers from the US-Mexico border, Steven Anderson thought his constitutional right to be free of unlawful search and seizure was intact. That was where, in 2009, Customs and Border Patrol stopped Anderson, a pastor, and indicated that a canine had alerted them to the presence of hidden drugs or humans in the back of his car. When Anderson refused to consent to a search, the Texas Department of Public Safety smashed his windows and tased the leader of Faithful Word Baptist Church. His new documentary examines what life is like for the 197 million Americans who live within 100 miles of the US border, and under the scrutiny of checkpoint searches. Of course, here in Hawaii, there is no place more than 100 miles from the national border! I would also point out that this "Constitution free" law is unconstitutional, and under the US Supreme Court ruling Marbury vs Madison is automatically null and void. US WAGES -- from 1991 as a base HORRIBLE (!!) BOOM: DOW NEW RECORD... BANK OF AMERICA: Markets in 'Twilight Zone' Man Who Hacked And HiJacked Airplane On The Run From FBI, John McAfee Speaks Out Baltimore Prosecutor Mosby: "I’m Just Doing My Job" It was a press conference billed as another sign of change within the Baltimore City State's Attorney's Office since Marilyn Mosby took over the reins just five months ago. A gathering at the Center for Urban Families in West Baltimore to discuss a new pilot program called Aim to be More, which will offer job training for people charged with nonviolent drug offenses, a move Mosby says will lessen the toll of the city's aggressive criminal justice system, and free up her office to focus on the most violent offenders. A disturbing scenario for folks fretting about “financial instability,” as it’s called in central-bank jargon.

NEW WRH WEBSITE - STATUS REPORT Over the weekend I succeeded in working out how to copy the existing article database and user accounts into the new site. That was a major hurdle. The only remaining major hurdle is to have a "wrapper" page to surround the permanent articles, letters, and so forth, which is my next major task. After that, all that remains is theme refinement, and barring an unexpected disaster the new WRH site should be ready to go live early next month. Thanks for your patience. Oil Billionaire Attempts to Silence University Quake Researchers Fossil fuel partisans in the Sooner State were rattled late last month when the Oklahoma Geological Survey (OGS) released a statement that the rapid increase in the state’s seismic activity was very likely caused by humans—specifically the “injection/disposal of water associated with oil and gas production.” One billionaire oilman decided to take action—not about the message but about the messengers. Emails exposed by Bloomberg News reveal that Harold Hamm, the founder and CEO of Continental Resources, one of America’s ten biggest energy independents, asked the dean of the University of Oklahoma’s College of Earth and Energy to fire scientists involved with the OGS report, an official publication of the university. “Mr. Hamm is very upset at some of the earthquake reporting to the point that he would like to see select OGS staff dismissed,” Dean Larry Grillot wrote to a couple of colleagues. As Chicago Pays Victims of Past Torture, Police Face New Allegations of Abuse at Homan Square More victims have come forward to detail recent abuse inside Homan Square, a secret compound used by Chicago police for incommunicado interrogations and detentions which some have described as the domestic equivalent of a CIA black site overseas. America Refuses to Face up to Its «Death Squads» in Blue Media pundits and politicians are calling the violence that broke out in Baltimore after the spinal cord severance death, while in police custody, of African-American Freddie Gray a «wake up call». However, these self-appointed «experts» on the social collapse of poor, mostly African-American working class neighborhoods across the United States, are avoiding talking about the real reason cities and towns across America are erupting in protest and resorting to rioting every time a young African-American is murdered by the police. America, like the fascist dictatorships in Latin America during the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, is now rife with police «death squads». Uniformed law enforcement officers now act as judges, juries, and executioners in meting out death sentences on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri, a St. Louis suburb; New York City; North Charleston, South Carolina; Baltimore; and other cities and towns across the dis-United States.

Obama Bans Military Equipment for Local Police to Stop “Paramilitary-like Response to Riots” After militarizing police, Obama is putting law enforcement weapons under federal control. President Obama is announcing a “ban” on the sale or transfer of many of these military items to local police units: President Obama has banned the sale of the most some kinds of military equipment to local law enforcement agencies in response to widespread criticism of a paramilitary-like response to riots in a St. Louis suburb last August. Dan Ariely: The Next Market Downturn May Quickly Become A Full-Blown Panic, The Human Factor Has Become Extremely Skittish MILITARY RECRUITING INCREASINGLY AIMED AT CHILDREN Once it was tobacco companies targeting minors with cartoon characters.

US cited for police violence, racism in scathing UN review on human rights The United States was slammed over its rights record Monday at the United Nations’ Human Rights Council, with member nations criticizing the country for police violence and racial discrimination, the Guantánamo Bay Detention Facility and the continued use of the death penalty. The issue of racism and police brutality dominated the discussion on Monday during the country’s second universal periodic review (UPR). Country after country recommended that the U.S. strengthen legislation and expand training to eliminate racism and excessive use of force by law enforcement. Netanyahu: Jerusalem is the capital of the Jewish people alone Jerusalem was always the capital of the Jewish people alone – and not of any other nation, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday night during a Jerusalem Day address at Ammunition Hill. "This is our home and here we will stay," the prime minister added. Video: Israeli mobs celebrate “Jerusalem Day” with anti-Palestinian rampage in Old City Thousands of young Israelis, many of them children, rampaged through the Old City of occupied Jerusalem on Sunday chanting “Death to the Arabs” and other racist and antiMuslim slogans. BEX ALERT - 'Prize operatives': ISIS smuggling fighters into Europe 'disguised as refugees' Islamic State is smuggling fighters into Europe, commanding them to disguise themselves as refugees, according to a Libyan government adviser. The militants are reportedly profiting by 'taxing' those operating the overcrowded boats. Abdul Basit Haroun told BBC 5 Live Investigates programme that the boats are used “for their [the Islamic State's] people who they want to send to Europe, as the European police don't know who is from IS and who is a normal refugee or not.” The militants are reportedly being aided by trafficking gangs who operate in parts of North Africa controlled by the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL). History of World War II: America Was Providing Military Aid to the USSR, While Also Supporting Nazi Germany Besides weapons, other supplies were also provided under lend-lease. And those figures are absolutely indisputable indeed. Specifically, the USSR received 2,586,000 tons of aviation fuel, an amount equal to 37% of what was produced in the Soviet Union during the war, plus almost 410,000 automobiles, making up 45% of the Red Army’s vehicle fleet (not counting cars captured from the enemy). Food shipments also played a significant role, although very little was provided during the first year of the war, and the US supplied only about 15% of the USSR’s canned meat and other nonperishables. Ukraine and China ink $2.4 bn currency swap Ukraine and China have signed a currency swap agreement worth $2.4 billion, according to the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU). Ukraine expects it will relieve pressure on its currency which has lost above 40 percent against the US dollar in a year. This will not please Poroshenko's masters one bit! We're ruled by a cosy elite who all go to the same dinner parties, says former No10 policy guru chief David Cameron’s former chief strategist has launched a stinging attack on the ‘insular ruling class’ threatening Britain’s democracy. Steve Hilton said too many of those at the heart of government go to the same dinner parties and send their children to the same schools. He said the UK’s political system is now in ‘crisis’ because the same type of people stay in charge whatever the outcome of the elections. In what will be seen as a criticism of the ‘chumocracy’ of his former boss, Mr Hilton warned: ‘Our democracies are increasingly captured by a ruling class that seeks to perpetuate its privileges. Pope Calls Mahmoud Abbas 'Angel of Peace' Pope Francis met Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Saturday, calling him “an angel of peace,” days after the Vatican announced a treaty that formalized its recognition of the State of Palestine.

The Fall Of Monsanto Is Near NATO Member France Steps Up Military Commitment To Enforce U.S. Hegemony Video of UKIP Candidate Banned for "Anti-Semitism" for Criticising Labour Party's Head of the Friends of Israel Evidence for Informed Trading on the Attacks of September 11 Just after September 11th 2001, many governments began investigations into possible insider trading related to the terrorist attacks of that day. Such investigations were initiated by the governments of Belgium, Cyprus, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Monte Carlo, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the United States, and others. Although the investigators were clearly concerned about insider trading, and considerable evidence did exist, none of the investigations resulted in a single indictment. That’s because the people identified as having been involved in the suspicious trades were seen as unlikely to have been associated with those alleged to have committed the 9/11 crimes. Most voters think the government should prioritise fighting inequality over economic growth A survey by pollsters YouGov found that of the main parties only Conservative supporters were significantly more likely to care about economic growth than inequality. Greek Town Backs Down In Star of David Feud The mayor of the northern Greek port city of Kavala said that the dedication of a disputed Holocaust memorial will take place “very soon.” Tsanaka was speaking Sunday to demonstrators wearing yellow Stars of David, who gathered to protest the delay in the unveiling of the memorial, according to the AP.

But it also insists on being a Jewish-majority country, at all costs. In order to maintain its Jewish majority, it must demonize non-Jews, particularly Muslims and Christian Arabs, as “demographic threats." Here are five crazy things the Israeli government or the Israeli people have done to maintain this racial makeup. US Attempted Color Revolution in Macedonia: Victoria Nuland's Dirty Hands Involved Color Revolutions are a US specialty - staged to replace independent sovereign governments with illegitimate stooge regimes Washington controls. So-called spontaneous uprisings are manufactured. Ordinary people are manipulated against their own self-interest. US destabilizing tactics were honed though years of trial and error. They're down to a science now. They usually work. For days, protesters assembled in Macedonia's capital, Skopje, demanding its government resign. U.S. Hosts Arms Bazaar at White House Arab Summit When the United States sells billions of dollars in sophisticated arms to Arab nations, they are conditioned on two key factors: no weapons with a qualitative military edge over Israel will ever be sold to the Arabs, nor will they receive any weapons that are not an integral part of the U.S. arsenal. London House Prices Plunge as Election Concerns Hit Market Young People Dump 9 to 5’s To Become “Digital Nomads” Israeli Security Force Thugs Attack Russian Journalists Israel is a lawless police state. Military censorship bans or sanitizes material it claims harms national security - true or false. It prohibits information the public has a right to know - despite its High Court rulings limiting content suppression to "tangible (or) near certain" instances of public endangerment. Official policy is hardline. Fundamental rights are systematically violated. Palestinian protests, demonstrations, marches and gatherings are prohibited. Santorum says he’d bomb Iran back to the Seventh Century VIDEO: Man Kicked Out of Courtroom and Threatened with Jail For “Police Lie” Shirt Obama Gave Up on Ukraine, Press Simply Ignored It On Tuesday, May 12th, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry was asked at a press conference in Sochi Russia, to respond to Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko’s recent statements promising renewed war against Donbass, which were made first on April 30th, “The war will end when Ukraine regains Donbass and Crimea,” and which were repeated on May 11th, by his saying, “I have no doubt, we will free the [Donetsk] Airport, because it is our land.” In other words, Poroshenko had repeatedly made clear that he plans a third invasion of Donbass, and, ultimately, also to invade and retake Crimea. (The Western press, however, had not reported any of these threats that were being made by Poroshenko.) TLC's Submissive Wives' Guide to Marriage will be the best show ever "Enter the rarely explored world of submissive wives, where fulfilling one’s husband’s every need is a part of everyday life, with the belief that it only serves to strengthen the marriage. For these women, allowing their husbands to be leaders of the household proves their own trust in them and in God. The hour long special Submissive Wives’ Guide To Marriage chronicles the lives of three married couples, two living in a submissive marriage, and one looking to adapt to this lifestyle to save their marriage." Claire saw this show and thought it was great. I missed it, and from the title was initially put off. While I have long ago severed any support for feminism following the constant male-bashing always-cry-rape, I see marriage as a partnership. However on reading the reviews of this show (and I will catch the repeat) I have come to understand that the show did not encourage all wives to be submissive, but showcased women who chose a 1950s style marital model and liked it. I am okay with their making that choice if that is what works. One of my pet peeves with 90s feminism isn't that they wanted women to have a choice to have a career instead of being a house wife, but that all women should want a career, want to leave the house, (in extreme cases, want to be lesbians), and looked on women who wanted to stay home with their children as clearly inferior. In hindsight, the hijacked latter day gender-feminism (as opposed to the earlier equityfeminism, which we could all agree with) took away one enforced role model for women only to replace it with another. In practical terms, gender-feminism doubled the work force, which doubled the government's taxing opportunities, and made men disposable to send off to wars. In hindsight, it was a repeat of the "Rosie the Riveter" propaganda of WW2. In the end, it comes down to choice. For women who choose to have a career, go for it! But the same should apply to women who want to be stay-at-home mothers. And I note that the feminists have slammed this show, and are all over social media claiming that women who want to stay at home and raise their children are (direct quote) "worthless leaches." No, they aren't. Such women contribute to the world in a way the feminists do not approve of, and that is what the feminists are upset about; losing control. No longer being seen as the trend setters. From an economics point of view, a reversal of the feminist trend makes sense. With jobs in such short supply, a return to the single-job household makes a great deal of sense.

Italy, France, Germany sign European drone project Bombardier plant's defective "Made in Mexico" parts delay final streetcar assembly and delivery to Canadian customers TTC issues with Bombardier streetcars also apply to Metrolinx order The problem with the Metrolinx cars is the same as that described this week by frustrated TTC (Toronto Transit Commission) CEO Andy Byford , who said he wants riders to understand why he can’t put more of the air-conditioned, fully accessible streetcars into service. The first of the 204 new streetcars — price tag: $1.2 billion — were so flawed that the TTC simply couldn’t risk putting them into service because they would almost certainly break down on Toronto streets, he said. Parts produced in Mexico were so poorly made that they couldn’t be properly assembled in Bombardier’s Thunder Bay plant, where attempts to rivet badly cut walls and underframes were rejected by the TTC. Byford also cited defective laminate, loose screws and faulty electrical connectors among the issues on the new TTC vehicles. AE911Truth - "Overwhelming Majority of AIA Delegates Make the Political Decision and Vote Down Resolution 15-6" “We are a professional – not a political – organization. But in this case, if we vote “no” on this resolution, we are making a political decision, not a professional one. Thank you very much.” – Daniel Barnum, FAIA Those were the closing remarks from the lead sponsor of AIA Resolution 15-6, Daniel Barnum, FAIA. Seconds later, the AIA delegates cast their votes. The unfortunate outcome was that an overwhelming majority made the political decision. Resolution 156, which called upon the AIA to support a new WTC 7 investigation, was voted down 3,892 to 160, garnering 4% of the delegates’ votes. . . . . . However, that does not signal to us that we should give up on reaching out to the AIA membership. We are pleased to have gained the signatures of another 150 AIA members, seven of whom are fellows of the Institute. We will continue and intensify our outreach efforts with ever more creative and incisive strategies. New Military Spending Bill Expands Empire But Forbids Debate on War Science and Reason Takes Back Seat to 9/11 Official Story In Historic AIA Resolution Vote By Bernie Suarez In a historic vote delegates of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) overwhelmingly voted down Resolution 15-6 which called for AIA to support a new investigation of the destruction of World Trade Center building 7 on September 11th 2001. The resolution, which was introduced by AIA member Dan Barnum FAIA, was voted down overwhelmingly by a vote of 3892 - 160 meaning 96% of the delegates voted to ignore the science, the facts, and the evidence which is today common knowledge about the destruction of WTC 7! That's right. 96% of voting AIA delegates voted with intentions and goals outside the realm of science and reason...

The Debt To GDP Ratio For The Entire World: 286 Percent Did you know that there is more than $28,000 of debt for every man, woman and child on the entire planet? And since close to 3 billion of those people survive on less than 2 dollars a day, your share of that debt is going to be much larger than that. If we took everything that the global economy produced this year and everything that the global economy produced next year and used it to pay all of this debt, it still would not be enough.

It isn't the taxpayer who is greedy - it is the government minions who are greedy! Pollsters included the name of a random woman in a survey—and 20 percent of Republican primary voters said they dislike her. Pity Emily Farris. Republican primary voters just don’t like her very much. In a survey released on Wednesday, Public Policy Polling found that Farris near the bottom of the GOP field. She polled well behind fellow Texans Rick Perry and Ted Cruz. Just 3 percent of voters had formed a favorable opinion of her, while 20 percent reported unfavorable views. Only embattled New Jersey Governor Chris Christie faced a wider gap. A Texas woman claims she was forced to give birth alone in jail during a horrific night in solitary confinement nearly two years ago, and that her baby died because of it, according to a federal lawsuit filed this week.
