Could "Bailout" Be Code for "World War III"?

According to Paul Watson at Prison Planet, Chinese mainstream news outlets today reported that the RAND Corporation recently presented a proposal to the Pentagon in which it lobbied for war with a major foreign power in an attempt to stimulate the American economy. This on the heels of recent proclamations from Joe Biden, Colin Powell, Michael Chertoff, and others that Barack Obama will face a major crisis immediately after taking office, as well as the U.S.-Israeli sneak attack on Russia through Georgia back in August.

http://www.prisonplanet.com/rand-lobbies-pentagon-start-war-to-save-us-economy.html

Allegedly these foreign media sources - there was a French language report as well - are claiming that RAND suggested the $700 billion dollars that has been earmarked to bailout the Wall Street crooks be used instead to finance a new war - thereby reinvigorating the U.S. markets and economy.

Among the nations considered possible U.S. targets: China, Russia, Iran and even Japan. This is very disturbing when taken in combination with the recent fear mongering about a post-inauguration crisis. Don't forget, Russia-obsessed maniac Zbigniew Brzezinski is always lurking in the shadows of the Obama camp, and the shift from the Neo-Con Middle East focus to a Central Asia/Eurasia/Asia Proper campaign is already quite evident.

http://911trutheddie.blogspot.com/2008/10/talibanal-qaeda-split-ominous-sign-for.html

Paul Watson also pointed out that the RAND corporation has deep ties to the U.S. military-industrial complex as well as connections with the Ford, Rockefeller, and Carnegie foundations. Current directors of RAND include Frank Charles Carlucci III, former Defense Secretary and Deputy Director of the CIA, Ronald L. Olson, Council on Foreign Relations member and former Secretary of Labor, and Carl Bildt, top Bilderberg member and former Swedish Prime Minister.

That's some pretty upstanding company, huh?

Notable as well is that as of late this afternoon, there was no English-speaking media story or broadcast about these developments. No surprise there.

Who knows at this point what's going on here, but it's certainly pretty damn scary. Rest assured Prison Planet will be keeping a close eye on any developments.

Leading Japanese Politician Questions 9/11 for the Third Time; Envokes Paul, Kucinich

Last Wedensday, Japanese Diet member Yukihisa Fujita once again questioned the official 9/11 fairy tale on the floor of the Japanese equivolent of Congress.

Alex Jones interviewed Fujita back in March of this year, at which time one of the leading members of the Japanese opposition party suggested that the United Nations lead a new investigation into the alleged terrorist attacks.

http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/march2008/033108_un_investigation.htm

"This is something Parliamentarians of various countries could ask - I was in Europe meeting with European MP's and they are also thinking about asking the UN to investigate, so these kind of efforts need to be done internationally," said Fujita, adding that he had visited eleven different European countries in an attempt to garner support for the move.

Last week's speech to the Japanese parliament included a call to to stop all Japanese support for U.S.-led military operations, citing heavy civilian and military losses in Iraq and Afghanistan.

http://www.infowars.com/?p=5624

Wow. How refreshing. Imagine one of the leaders of either criminal party in this country suggesting such a thing.

Fujita reportedly went on to describe the Kucinich impeachment debate in Congress and its support by members of the House. He went on to list to the Japanese parliament Congressman Kucinich's 35 articles of impeachment against President Bush, and also mentioned Dr. Ron Paul in regards to the impeachment of our puppet president.

Reports say that although there was no public broadcast of Fujita's speech, that this is - in fact - the third time he's called out the 9/11 fable on the Japanese parliament floor.

Fujita is a member of the Democratic Party of Japan. He also pointed out that there has never been an official police investigation into the deaths of the 24 Japanese citizens who were killed on 9/11.

I Demand a Steel Cage Match: Palin and McCain vs. a Wolf and a Polar Bear




















Yes, it's true. Sarah Palin managed to mumble something resembling support for a new investigation into the 9/11 attacks. Before you go into shock or jump onto the Neo-Con bandwagon, however, keep in mind the jesters who have come before her. John Edwards, Joe Biden, and countless others. Not to mention John McCain - who posed for photos with Truthers holding 9/11 Truth banners.

And by the way, I'm not going to bother looking up links and posting them for you Neo-Con morons. If you don't believe me, Google the names, Google We Are Change, and watch the confrontations for yourselves. I'm frankly tired of wasting energy pasting links for no reason.

Apparently Palin yesterday had this to say when confronted about a new 9/11 investigation:

"I think that helps us get to the point of never again, and if anything that we could do could still complete that reminder out there.”

Exactly what does that mean in English? Not Alaskan, but American English?

So, let's not anoint her the next Charlie Sheen quite yet.

Aside from the rest of the mentally retarded syntax she's displayed over the past couple of months, I still can't get past the abject animal cruelty she takes part in in her home state of Alaska.

And I'm not talking here about whether or note polar bears are drowning because of melting ice caps. I simply mean plain old inhumane treatment of precious wild animals. Regardless of which side of the global warming issue you reside on - and quite frankly I haven't emigrated to either yet - you cannot possibly condone the aerial killing of beautiful and innocent animals that either at some point have been or are currently in dangerous decline.

I realize that all of these links are coming from a leftist angle. And I don't care. I am more than comfortable that I have shown a non-partisan view in my previous writings, and that I've grown from a registered Dem to someone who leans more to the "right" of center.

But when it comes to animals and their rights, I still have ZERO tolerance for hypocritical pieces of filth like Sarah Palin.

Highlights from Willieland

It promised to be off the hook when first announced, and the photos and videos up at infowars.com and prisonplanet.com from this past weekend's festivities from in and around Austin confirm how absolutely awesome it must have been to have experienced it.

Willie Nelson, Jesse Ventura, Alex Jones, Jason Bermas, Jimmie Vaughn and others - in a celebration of 9/11 Truth, liberty, peace, and constitutional values.



Prison Planet TV members will have access to all of the high quality videos, but I'm sure they'll be all over YouTube and Google very shortly - if not already.

Besides Willie Nelson's Take Back America concert, video footage includes Alex, Jesse, and Jason Bermas driving around discussing the NAU, NWO, et al, and lengthy interviews with Ventura and Nelson live from Willie Nelson's house.

Willie Nelson, Jesse Ventura, Alex Jones: “A Peaceful Solution, A Peace Revolution"

Don't miss the action this Sunday night when Willie Nelson, Jesse Ventura and Alex Jones headline a musical and political extravaganza to promote 9/11 Truth, world peace, aid for small American farmers, and everything constitutional.

For the 99.9 percent of folks who care but won't be attending the event at The Backyard in Austin, Alex Jones' InfoWars network will be broadcasting the action live at http://www.infowars.com/ and http://www.prisonplanet.com/ beginning at 8 p.m. EDT.

Not only are Alex Jones and Jesse Ventura scheduled to give what are sure to be fiery speeches with a guaranteed surprise or two, Willie Nelson will be playing a set, as will blues performer and 9/11 Truther Jimmy Vaughn. Vaughn is expected to join Willie on stage as well.

I can't even begin to express how badly I wish I was in Austin rather than New Jersey this weekend. Not only is it going to be an awesome event, but it's actually in the name of something(s) real and important for once.

Willie Nelson was on the Alex Jones Show Wednesday, and had some harsh and truthful words for the crooks running the bailout, the economy in general, and, unfortunately, our entire lives.

“I have written a letter as president of Farm Aid to whoever controls that money that we would like to have $1 billion dollars from that 700….$1 billion dollars is I think all we’ll need to turn the economy around if we start out taking care of our family farmers,” Nelson said. “We could put 10 million farmers back on the land, making a living out there raising food and fuel….and that $1 billion dollars I think would go a long way to changing our negative attitudes that we have and the confidence in ourselves and in our country right now.”

He added that all foreclosures on farms should be halted immediately.

http://www.infowars.com/?p=5523

Sunday's event is completely legit. Not only will they be talking 9/11 Truth, the illegal wars, the police state, and every other mega-issue we currently face, but Willie will be out there - yet again - championing for the little guy. The once great but dying small American farmer. Who by they way, could - if helped - slash our food prices and diminish opportunities for illegal aliens to capitalize on our nation's complete and utter chaos of an industrial/agricultural foundation.

It should be intense to say the least. Don't miss it at:

Ron Paul: Suddenly a Media Darling?


It's great to see Dr. Ron Paul on the cable news shows so much lately, but at the same time, it's so infuriating. During the run of Republican primaries and primary debates, Dr. Paul was nowhere to be found in polls, news shows, and debate face time. The corporate shills at CNN/FOX/MSNBC, et al. deliberately blacked him out. Now, he's a regular and just about every other day you turn around and there's Ron Paul again talking about the economy.

http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/24/ron.paul.economy/index.html

It makes perfect sense of course. Ron Paul is a economic mastermind and fiery critic of the banks, the criminal private Federal Reserve, and our monetary system. He knows exactly what he speaks of, and unlike most, he tells the truth when it comes to where we are financially, how we got here, and where we're headed.

If only the talking heads paid him so much attention over the past year and a half. We might just have finished watching three debates of Dr. Paul making Lord Obama look ridiculous.

This morning was the Congressman's most recent appearance on CNN, when he once again denounced our current monetary system, calling it "fraudulent."

"We created this problem," Dr. Paul said. "The Federal Reserve created this. The Community Reinvestment Act created it. The FDIC created it. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac created it."

Congressman Paul probably gets more airtime in a jam-packed morning show nowadays than every minute of time allotted him in every primary debate strung together. Remember when that piece of trash Anderson Cooper cut Dr. Paul off after roughly half of a 30-second answer?

And as always, CNN host John Roberts ended this morning's interview by saying, "Congressman Paul, it's always good to see you."

Yeah, but it wasn't so great to see the Good Doctor when valuable CNN exposure may have made a difference in voters' minds now, was it, John?

Get Ready for the Next Fake Bin Laden Tape

Former "counter-terrorism" czar and criminal conspirator Richard Clarke planted the latest seeds of terror in the public's psyche yesterday when he said that Osama bin Laden would try to influence the upcoming election via a new video tape.


When are they going to stop with this? There hasn't been an original Osama video in seven years, and the likelihood is that he's been dead for about that long.



But, just as in Orwell's nightmarish 1984, the government needs its bogeyman up on the big screen. And each and every time one of the lying cable news shows gives this any coverage without calling it out as a fake, they are complicit in bald face lying and a massive cover up. Not that they care though.

Back to the newest pack of lies...

Clarke (and countless others) maintain that bin Laden helped Bush win the 2004 election by "implying that he supported Kerry" via one of the CIA-produced videos released in the Fall of that year. Well, it must have been him. It certainly wasn't fraudulent voting machines, or the fact that tens of thousands of voters were turned away in urban parts of Ohio and denied their constitutional right to vote.


Of bin Laden, Clarke said, “So, we know he likes to try to influence elections. So, we can look forward to perhaps another video tape like that, or an attack. But an attack is a heck of a lot harder for them to stage than the easy job of putting out a video tape.”

Great point Richard. It is indeed harder for the rogue elements of our government to pull off another 9/11 than it is for them to go into the editing room and throw another CGI Osama together.

N.J. Cops Toss Woman from Wheelchair, Mace a Crowded Bus and Storm It Like Some Cave in Tora Bora

Thanks to http://www.crashof83.com/ for the heads up on this story. Check out this killer site, listed at the bottom of my blog as one of the select links for fighting the New World Order.

Trenton police savaged a passenger bus yesterday afternoon, arresting two people, while dispersing mace, and throwing a woman from her wheelchair.

According to The Trentonian, the mayhem began at 1:45 p.m. when a 55-year-old woman allegedly assaulted a bus driver after a verbal spat turned physical.

http://www.trentonian.com/articles/2008/10/23/news/doc49001f99ee0ab755032769.txt

Trenton Police Captain Joe Juniak said the wheelchair-bound Beverly Garrett “proceeded to aggressively verbally abuse the driver with foul and threatening language.” And when the driver tried to walk away from her, Juniak said, Garrett “stood up out of her wheelchair and physically assaulted the driver by striking him about the head and body with closed fists.”

Uh, yeah. This smacks very similar to earlier this year when officers threw a paraplegic from his chair after asking him numerous times to "get up."

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/officer-faces-jail-for-tipping-paraplegic-man-out-of-chair-783559.html

In addition to the wheelchair aspect of this story, cops also dispersed mace into the bus, and arrested a man for refusing to hand over a cell phone that he used to record the entire event.

“This gentleman did absolutely nothing wrong, except take a picture with his personal cell phone, which is not a crime,” said one witness. “The cops cannot request that I give you my phone.”

Despite having been treated quite harshly by the courts in New Jersey for a misdemeanor offense and conviction, I will be the first to admit that the police in this state are generally very fair and in complete contrast to what I read from around the country. This, obviously, is not one of those times. Please circulate this to the folks in your neck of the woods as just another example of the police gone awry.

And of course, there is a side story. The Trentonian describes it as follows:

"Coincidentally, the two people arrested in each part of this story have tangential relationships to the recent legal wranglings regarding the city’s police directors. The woman on the bus was arrested during a meeting at which the future of the old director was discussed, and the arrested onlooker’s father is a plaintiff in the lawsuit seeking the ouster of the current cop boss."

Dare you question our officials, our enforcers. How quickly these pigs are trained to forget they serve us - not the other way around.

BBC Continues to Look Desperate and Pathetic

The government-controlled shills over at the BBC are set to air yet another lie-filled hit-piece about 9/11 and WTC7. This will be their third go-round at trying to fleece the public. I guess they're banking on third-times-a-charm?

The BBC's shining example of modern-day yellow journalism began back in February of 2007 with their first 9/11 "documentary." They tried it again in July of this year. They obviously have no concept of cutting one's losses, and certainly have no shame. Each time they try this bull, they are completed shredded, disproven, and made to look ridiculous.

http://911trutheddie.blogspot.com/2008/07/latest-bull-from-bbc.html

Frankly I never even managed to get myself to watch the second installment. The first time was quite enough of a waste of 90 minutes. I decided that the most time I'll waste on the BBC is the few minutes it takes to write a blog.

For a good laugh at the BBC's expense, check out Steve Watson's story at infowars.net. Or even better, watch the show when it airs this coming Sunday.

Terrorizing Harbingers?

The modus operandi of the week? Prepare Americans' mental and emotional states for the next "terror attack."

According to Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, war criminal Colin Powell, and Vice Prez candidate Joe Biden, something big is looming on the horizon if Barack Obama were to be elected two weeks from today. One might think Chertoff and Powell were endorsing McCain, and that Biden had completely gone off the reservation. However, this is almost assuredly a subtle attempt to plant the idea of an upcoming "terror attack" in the minds of the American public. One that would result in Obama swooping in to be our "savior" and launch yet another illegal and illogical attack on a soverign foreign nation.

After all, with the election debates, Sarah Palin's embarrassing appearance on Saturday Night Live, and the state of the economy, the run of the mill idiot voter probably hasn't spent much time lately searching their bathtub and cupboards for guys in beards and turbans before they go to sleep.

Enter more manufactured fear.

First we have Secretary Chertoff. He says "the U.S. may be vulnerable to a terrorist attack during the next six months, with violent groups more likely to try to take advantage of a new president and administration."

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=auIWPps4p6cg&refer=home

Then there's Obama's running mate, Joe Biden, who says that during Obama's first six months as Prez, "the world [will test] Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy." The Kennedy reference has to do with the narrowly averted Bay of Pigs disaster of course. And naturally this is what Biden chooses to cite, and what the media pigs choose to run with. Not the horrific track record in recent years of presidential terms beginning with "terror."

http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/10/20/biden-obama-tested-world-months-administration/

First we have the initial attempt to blow up the World Trade Center in 1993 - at this point, no question an inside job.

http://whatreallyhappened.com/RANCHO/POLITICS/OK/wtcbomb.html

Conveniently, this occurred a month and six days after Bill Clinton's inauguration.

Fast forward to 9/11/2001. I won't even bother to post links here. That would be insulting to anyone with a brain. But for the record, it took place seven months and 22 days after Dubbya's inauguration.

Now for the horrific 7/7 bus/train bombings in London (and don't think for a second that whatever happens in the U.S. and Britain isn't eternally linked between the two). That took place on 7/7/05. Exactly five months and 17 days after Bush was sworn in for the second time.

http://www.infowars.net/articles/december2005/201205finalfinalword.htm

Then there's Colin Powell. Bear in mind he should be in jail (or even dead, for that matter, via execution) for playing such a major role in the WMD lie that has killed nearly 4200 U.S. troops, millions of Iraqis, and God knows what other ultimate disasters. Instead, he's still looming, and came out in support of Obama and had this to say:

"The problems will always be there and there’s going to be a crisis which will come along on the 21st, 22nd of January that we don’t even know about right now."

http://www.infowars.com/?p=5461

Fear mongering at its finest from all of these crooks. Let us hope that over the next few months we find a way to derail what is looming.

Ron Paul Lays Out How Simplistically Horrible the Bailout Is

Congressman Ron Paul was back on CNN this morning talking again about the criminal bailout. The talking heads were trying to get Dr. Paul to shift on his positions given that the crooks on Capitol Hill "tweaked it [the bailout plan] and decided to buy stakes in some U.S. banks."

I guess Dr. Paul did move a little from statements he made the last time he was on CNN - he emphatically said the bill is worse now than in its previous incarnation.

http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/17/ron.paul.qa/

Ron Paul is no doubt a brilliant economic mind. However, it doesn't take anywhere near brilliance to see the catastrophic pitfalls in what is going on here. Dr. Paul was able to sum up the whole mess with extremely succinct points. For example, he pointed out that the bailout is asking [though I would say enforcing via economic martial law] the poor to get the rich off of the hook. He explained that all of their "tweaks" have turned a $700-billion donation to the robber barrons into what will ultimatly cost Americans $5 trillion. The $5 trillion figure has been out there for a while now, of course nowhere to be found on the cable news shows or in the New York Times.

http://www.infowars.com/?p=4813

Perhaps the most obvious problem with this crookery is that paying for it will result in $6 loaves of bread and $10 gallons of milk. The money has to come from somewhere. Well, Dr. Paul laid that out, too.

He also repeated one of his favorite and truest lines, "If creating more money was the solution, nobody would ever have to work."

"This is going to cause a great deal of harm. It's like a drug addict taking a strong fix, and he feels better for a day or two, but believe me, we're going to kill the patient, Paul said. "And the patient here is the dollar system and our entire world economy. I would say let's get off this addiction."

All Fun and Games When You're Part of the Establishment


In a disgusting display of hubris and complete lack of caring for suffering Americans, Barack Obama and John McCain broke bread, laughed at each other - themselves and anything else -and looked like complete buffoons last night at Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner to benefit Catholic charities in New York.



While Americans are losing their jobs, their homes, and struggling to feed themselves, these two elitist pigs used the guise of a fundraiser and "roast," to hob knob with the jet set and match senses of humor.

I'm not supporting either of these clowns, so I don't particularly take this personally, but I think supporters of both men should be highly insulted and feel rather betrayed. After all, most voters believe their candidate cares about them and their problems.

We're 18 days away from choosing of these guys to be our next leader - during arguably the worst time for this nation in the past 100 years. Yet once again they've proven their nothing more than opposite sides of the same coin, interested in nothing but coming up with hardly witty things like:

"I can't shake that feeling that some people here are pulling for me," McCain said, turning to the far side of the stage. "I'm delighted to see you here tonight, Hillary."

McCain said that his rival was not fazed by being called, "That one," during the second presidential debate. "He doesn't mind at all,” McCain said, “in fact, he even has a pet name for me: George Bush.”

"I do love the Waldorf Astoria,” Obama said. “I hear from the doorstep you can see all the way to the Russian Tea Room." It prompted much laughter from McCain.

“Contrary to the rumors you have heard, I was not born in a manger,” Obama said. “I was actually born on Krypton and sent here by my father Jor-El to save the planet Earth.”

Wow. We're in BIG trouble.

"Screw Loose Change" Needs to Get Screwed!

I realize the idiotic dweebs at "Screw Loose Change" are nothing new to 9/11 Truthers' ire and, quite frankly, laughs - because of how pathetic their vapid arguments are. However, in my few months of this blog, I have never taken a shot at them personally. Now, I have an overwhelming urge to comment on them, and I will apologize in advance to my readers, and say what I have to say.

These retards have spent the past three years futily attempting to debunk the Loose Change videos, the We Are Change conquests, and the 9/11 Truth movement in general. In the process they have made a significant name for themselves - via the corrupt and even MORE retarded mainstream media - but have also exposed themselves as one of two things; government co-intel operatives, or, the most fleeced, moronic and oblivious government-loving fools in recent history.

How did I get on this topic? Classic case of surfing. One thing led to another, led to another, and I found myself at the Screw Loose blogspot page. From there, I discovered a sub page maintained by one of the two pathetic shills that purport the government sponsored propaganda. It's called "The Chief Brief." Now, if that isn't the most pathetic grasp at wannabe-clever alliteration I've seen, words then escape me. The creator of the blog claims to be "a software geek... and part-time Chief Warrant Officer in the Army National Guard." Well, hey, National Guard, he must be right!

Guaranteed that this individual is one of the National Guardsmen chomping at the bit to gun down American citizens who oppose the "Bailout," the illegal government spying, and every other infringement on our Constitution. But, I digress.

On to some of the insanity posted on this Chief Brief rag.

I am getting more and more annoyed at these academic frauds, called the "Scholars for 9'11 Truth." Fortunately, their peers and the media seem to be picking them up and debunking them. - http://thechiefbrief.blogspot.com/2006/06/those-wacky-scholars.html

Uh, huh. Not like Scholars for 9/11 Truth is gaining membership, momentum, and credibility every day. Then again, this was posted more than two years ago, when morons still didn't believe the Truth Movement would prevail, and thus, it was safe to irrationally bash, make fun, and attempt to discredit.

Like all conspiracy theorists, they rely not on the scientific method but by focusing on third-generation rumors distorted from the original, and then the complete avoidance of any information that might contradict their theory. - http://thechiefbrief.blogspot.com/2006/05/truth-on-911-rumors.html

First off, the 9/11 movement backs up three-fold everything it claims - from the Loose Change crew, to David Ray Griffin's books, to the Alex Jones show. Secondly, unlike the supporters of the official fable, we don't rely on mainstream propaganda, Neo-Con rhetoric, or whitewashes by Bush/Cheney-selected commissions.

I have covered 9/11 conspiracy theorists in the past, and with the release of the movie United 93, they are starting to come out of the woodwork even more. - http://thechiefbrief.blogspot.com/2006/04/loose-change-loose-screw.html

You're g-damn right! There's never been a bigger fairytale motion picture full of government/intelligence propaganda to ever hit the big screen. Arab patsies. Box cutters. A bumbling air defense. Every Arabic catch phrase one can possibly imagine uttered by the "villains." A rag-tag bunch of passengers taking over a plane...

Then there's this blog: http://thechiefbrief.blogspot.com/2006/02/moonbattery-explained.html.

This is just a pathetic attempt to explain the fake CIA-borne bin-Laden videos, the lies regarding al-Qaeda's claim of responsibility for the 9/11 attacks, and on and on.

Frankly, I can't take anymore. But take one thing away with you... why is it that the most recent 9/11-related post on this rag is dated 3/22/08? Why is the next most recent dated 9/18/07? Maybe because they're running out of lies? Running of of propaganda? Maybe because the Truth movement is exploding and no one can logically deny it any longer?

All of the above!

New War Memorial a Literal Mural of Lies

Ground was broken Oct. 5 in Albuquerque, NM for a memorial honoring fallen New Mexican veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Sadly, the developers are well-meaning idiots, however, as the memorial is adorned with various images of the 9/11 attacks - completely irrelevant and disrespectful to those who've given their lives in the Middle East and Central Asia.

http://www.military.com/news/article/bad-link-memorial-ties-iraq-war-911.html

According to a story in the Albuquerque Journal, the $300,000 memorial at the New Mexico Veterans' Memorial Park is slated to be finished by late Spring of 2009. While the memorial is not subject to city council approval, the 9/11 propaganda it contains is drawing some opposition.

"We want to make sure that we don't revise history before history is even written," Councilor Rey Garduo said. "In no way am I questioning whether we should honor our fallen heroes. But in no way should we connect Iraq and terrorism."

According to the Journal article, the proposed memorial features a ring of laser-etched granite blocks depicting the 9/11 attacks and other images, including maps and photos of the attacks in New York and Washington, D.C., and of the hijacked plane that went down in Somerset County, Pa. It also features five empty dress uniforms cast in bronze hanging in lockers that form a ring around a central pillar.

One brainwashed Iraq veteran said, "The conflict in which we are engaged in is officially referred to as the war on terror. The fact is that both campaigns [Iraq and Afghanistan] are wrapped up in the war on terror, which originated with the attacks on 9/11. Chronologically, (the wars) started with the attacks on 9/11."

It's sad that after seven years there are still folks out there who equate 9/11 with Iraq and Afghanistan. Even if you believe the official lie, not a single one of the alleged 19 al-CIA-da hijackers was from either Iraq or Afghanistan.

Charles Powell, president of the Albuquerque chapter of Veterans for Peace, summed it up beautifully when he said the memorial falsely links the 9/ 11 attacks with the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq, and that "to connect the war in Iraq with 9/11 is clearly a political thing. We don't feel that it's really an honor to put up a memorial to the brave men and women who died in Iraq to put on that memorial a false connection with 9/11."

11-22-08 - END THE FED!

Protests will be held outside of each of the 38 criminal Federal Reserve hideouts on November 22 - 98 years after the Creature From Jeckyll Island was conceived, and 45 years to the day that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated.

The movement - entitled End the Fed - will attempt to bring further attention to the criminal and unconstitional monetary practices that have completely devalued our dollar and are bringing our country to its knees.

Among those endorsing the protest(s) are Gov. Jesse Ventura, Sen. Mike Gravel, G. Edward Griffin, author of The Creature from Jeckyll Island, and William Lewis, creator of the documentary, Washington, You're Fired.

You can find out more about the events, learn more about the Federal Reserve, and join the action at: http://endthefed.us/. Also, check out the End the Fed blog at: http://endthefed.blogspot.com/.

Paul's Common Sense Against Bush's Talking Points - Yet Again

I really have nothing new to say about the U.S. Markets, the bailout of the Robber Barrons, and the complete criminality going on except that it's so pathetic we still have shills on the TV telling us we're not going to be able to avoid a "recession."

We're already in a recession, perhaps a depression, you jackasses! How much longer can the meadia shills - and the networks they work for - continue to inject their positions, without justificaton from the Markets or the truly knowlegable economists?

Instead, just listen to Ron Paul talk about it all - in plain truth yet again. Unlike the typhoon of lies and propaganda put forth by the Congress, the MSM and the White House, he lays out the real deal of what's going on - despite how scarey and unpopular that may be.

The mainstream shills are going to continue to lie, but we've reached a point where they are so easily exposed. This bailout has incinerated many of them - fortunately. Perhaps we'll now start to get some REAL media coverage - but I doubt we're quite there yet.

You WILL NOT Smear Lord Obama!

Jerome Corsi, author of the #1 Bestseller The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality, and scathing critic of Barack Obama, was arrested in Kenya yesterday during a book tour. There are varying explanations for why Corsi was detained, but it's a bit coincidental that he was snatched up just hours after a local newspaper labeled him an "author of a smear crusade."

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/africa/article4897758.ece

Now, I am not a big fan of Corsi's. He's a neo-con propagandist who played a major role in "swiftboating" John Kerry in 2004, and he certainly has ultra-right blinders on that completely discredit a large amount of what he says - even when he's right on certain issues. However, the protective force shield around Obama is completely out of control.

Just last month it came to light that in Missouri, if you have something bad to say about Lord Barack you'd better keep in to yourself or the goon police will be at your door. "Truth Squads" were mobilized in the Show Me State, on the prowl for anyone who disagreed with Obama.

http://www.infowars.com/?p=4897

As Webster Tarpley so eloquently puts it in his book Obama: The Postmodern Coup, we're truly headed toward a fascist dictatorship cleverly masked under a leftist cover. If you disagree with Obama, your at best a smear-monger, and at worst, a racist.

Aside from the fact that this Big Brother monitoring is so unnecessary - Obama is in the midst of cruising to victory, he's up against an abject joke in McCain-Palin, and he's the chosen one of the Wall Street elite - it is a complete First Amendment violation.

Now That They're Completely Busted, Bernanke Tells the Truth - Partially


Yesterday's mega-collapse in the global markets seems to have possibly shaken up the criminal banking elite a bit. Even with all of their hubris, they seem to know the bailout has been exposed as fradulent, unconstitutional, and of no value to the common citizen - despite what they publicly contend. The crooks have gone way too far, and it's time for a little damage control.

Enter Ben Bernanke - the wretched little lackey of the bankers and robber barrons - who if there were any justice would be headed off to prison for a very long time, very soon. The Fed chairman today said the current economic crisis is likely to restrain the economy well into next year. Wow, Ben, how prophetic.


Of course, he's still spewing all sorts of lies, doublespeak, and rhetoric, but at least he sort of admitted the truth. This doesn't, however, change the fact he's been a bald-faced lying piece of trash the whole rest of the time, and as Ron Paul said recently, he and Alan Greenspan should be brought up on criminal charges.

Since Bernanke took over the Fed in 2006, no legitimate economic forecaster or member of Congress contended that the economy was strong, or our economic policies sound. From Ron Paul to former Deputy Treasury Secretary Paul Craig Roberts, all those with economic knowledge and a caring for our dollar and our country were warning of huge dangers ahead. All the while, Bernake was saying things like:

"We at the Federal Reserve will do all that we can to prevent fraud and abusive lending and to ensure that lenders employ sound underwriting practices and make effective disclosures to consumers." - 5/27/07

"It is not the responsibility of the Federal Reserve - nor would it be appropriate - to protect lenders and investors from the consequences of their financial decisions." - 8/31/07

"The Federal Reserve takes responsible lending and consumer protection very seriously." - 9/20/07

"I think we need to keep in mind also that the economy does have inherent strengths and that those will certainly surface over a period of time." - 1/17/08





Lies and deceit. One sound bite after the next. These aren't 1/1000th of it.

Well, it's too late now, Ben. You can't all of a sudden say something true, and expect to be seen as someone who cares and is for the people. In the same way that an apology doesn't make a murder acceptable.

Taliban/al-Qaeda "Split." Ominous Sign for Pakistan?


Sources today are reporting that there are on going talks between the Taliban, and the regimes of Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan - aimed at ending conflict in Central Asia and allegedly signaling a severing of ties between the Taliban and al-CIA-da.

http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/10/06/afghan.saudi.talks/index.html

Well, that sounds all warm and fuzzy, but give us a break. The Saudis, the Afghans, and al-Qaeda (such as it exists) are all pawns of U.S. Intelligence and the global elite. They'll do what they're told, when they're told and how they're told - as decided on by the Bilderbergers.

What's really going on here is a quiet but shrewdly calculated shift away from the Middle East and on to Central Asia as a focus of gremlin enemies. It manipulates Pakistan into the crosshairs, and more importantly, it's an huge step closer to conflict with Russia and China.

With Barack Obama seemingly a lock to be the next President, it only stands to reason that the government and the media begin to turn the public's attention and anxieties to this region of the world. Obama's foreign policy guru, Zbigniew Brzezinski, is ever lurking in the shadows, and he's spent the past 40 or so years obsessing over how to annihilate all members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. See his 1997 book, The Grand Chessboard.

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/int/sco.htm

http://www.takeoverworld.info/grandchessboard.html

Last August, it was Obama who declared that he is ready and willing to attack Pakistan in the name of fighting al-Qaeda.

http://www.reuters.com/article/domesticNews/idUSN0132206420070801

Iraq and Iran are largely Neo-Con agendas. They'll do if need be under an Obama regime, but the Leftist eyes are definitely on bigger fish. With Dick Cheney unable to carry out false flag terror earlier this year, aimed at launching an attack on Iran, the Neo-Con war aspirations have all but fizzled out unless John McCain somehow wins next month.

http://thinkprogress.org/2008/07/31/cheney-proposal-for-iran-war/

Look for less and less about Iran and more and more about Pakistan as we get nearer to the Obama coup.

Ron Paul: Bailout Bill "Unconstitutional"


Speaking immediately after today's catastrophic passing of the bailout bill in the House, Ron Paul said that - among other things - the bill was unconstitutional.

"This time the bill was much worse," Paul said. "It's amazing. You take a very very bad bill, you take it back out, and you make it much worse. It tells you a little bit about what's going on here in Washington.

"The one very bad part of this bill was the fact that the tax portion of this bill was written by the Senate, and under the Constitution, only the House can originate tax bills. So that in itself was unconstitutional.

"But it's been done before and it will be done again. But that's just sort of the way things happen around here."

Congressman Paul added that the bill doesn't deal with the problem, and that it was simply symbolic of our overspending and over extension - "the absolute bankruptcy of this country."

Watch Dr. Paul's comments on the left hand side of this blog under Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty Feed, or at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL-9CV-qbMw&eurl=http://911trutheddie.blogspot.com/.

In contrast, this morning's debate on the House floor saw Nancy Pelosi spewing lies, lauding over the House leaders on both sides for selling out their constituents, and celebrating that 57 members of Congress have no spine and switched their vote. Later in the afternoon, George Bush came out of his hole to tell us how much of a victory the vote was. Yeah, George, about as effective as a "Mission Accomplished."

And let's not forget that the "yay" side of this treason - in both the House and Senate - include the likes of Barack Obama, John McCain, Joe Biden, Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Jay Rockefeller (yes, David's nephew), John Boehner, Harry Reid, John Kerry, Joe Lieberman, Ted Stevens, and on and on and on with the most disgusting members of Congress.

Note: Dennis Kucinich kept his word - as always - and voted no.

It's Official: The General Public Gets Sold to the Robber Barrons

No surprise, the House backpeddaled earlier today and voted for the abhorrent bailout of the criminal Wall Street elite. By a 263-171 vote, our treasonous "representatives" slit our throats and transferred nearly a trillion dollars in debt from the books of the banks to the books of the government - in other words, your checkbook.

President Bush has already signed the bill into law, and now we can sit back and listen to the cable news shows tell us how great and necessary this was. I mean, the MSM can't even tell you the proper amount of this ridiculous bill. It's over $800 million after some adjustments, and they're still calling it $700 million! It's only way down in the article - if they say it at all - that they give the proper amount.

God help us.

Roll Call for Senate Bailout Vote

I guess it was too much to ask for two common sense votes in the same week.

After the House shot down the $700 billion golden parachute for the Wall Street crooks earlier this week, yesterday the Senate showed how pathetic it is in passing the bill by a whopping 74-25. This isn't overly surprising though. There are MAYBE a handful of admirable congresspeople, and they're basically ALL in the House.

As a New Jerseyan, I found it encouraging that a good number of N.J. Reps voted nay in the House. We went 0 for 2 in the Senate, however, in terms of doing the right thing.

The full bill can be viewed in PDF format at http://www.infowars.com/?p=5034.

Below is yesterday's roll call. And you can bet the House will be back tomorrow or very early next week to tilt a good number of its votes and send this to the Retard-in-Chief for the signoff, while he gives the nation that sub-moronic grin as he signs away more of our freedoms.
