Thank you Seymour Hersh of The New Yorker for your "breaking news" piece on the Neo-Cons' amped-up aggressions toward Iran. You're only a few months late though. Any reputable alternative media site has been reporting for three years now that Washington has been incrementally building towards a mega-attack on Iran. Truthfully, the U.S. has been passively attacking Tehran and it's outlying areas for up to five years now, but things look like they're about to go Shock and Awe style before George and Dick leave office in January.
Despite the fact that warships have been moving in for the past 18 months, and the rhetoric has been growing (recall - Iran backs al-Qaeda), the past few days have been the first time the MSM has really begun to let on that we're headed toward yet another illegal war.
Speaking of Iran backing al-Qaeda... the MSM has been championing this talking point for quite some time. However, this New Yorker piece is probably the first MSM evidence that the CIA is behind these breakaway faction, Sunni terrorist groups that have been wreaking havoc in Iran. Once more, let's recap. Any aggressive, bomb-happy, outlaw terrorist group found in the Middle East or Central Asia is almost always Sunni. Iran is a Shiite nation. Arch enemies of these so-called al-Qaeda groups. It doesn't matter though. The MSM will spin and spin, and the average moron on the streets of the U.S. will continue to believe that Iranians are evil Arab Sunnis in league with al-Qaeda. All the while, this latest report alleges that our Congress rubber-stamped $400 million for Bush to have the CIA rile up these groups and have them go on a bombing raid inside of Iran.

As far back as 2005, U.N. Weapons Inspector Scott Ritter went on record as saying that intelligence gathering and the mobilization of indigenous opposition groups (Sunni al-Qaeda) are all being carried out by the CIA-backed special forces routed in Iran. One of the favorite M.O.s of these groups are massive suicide bombings on mosques, buses, schools, and the rest of it. Funny how these same attacks within Iraq are reason for us to stay there and demonize that set of Middle Eastern people.
It also appears that one of the largest groups our CIA is currently backing in it's antagonizing of the Iranians is the MEK (Mujahedeen-e Khalq), an anti-Shiite Iranian rebel group once fully supported by Saddam Hussein. This is a group also alleged to have supported the 1979 takeover of the Iranian U.S. Embassy and taking of American hostages for 444 days. But like always, we cherry pick our rules and morals. Don't forget, we've been both friend and foe in less than 30 years with both Osama bin-Laden and Saddam Hussein.

Does Your Bank Account Feel Stimulated?
Last Saturday I finally received my George W. Bush "stimulus" check in the mail. I'll admit that while this program is a complete farce, I certainly needed the $600. That doesn't put me in different company from 90% of America though. Who couldn't use the average $600 or so boost to their account? Unfortunately, 99.0% of those who received a check - including myself - have already spent it.
Personally, I've been waiting for about six weeks now for the check because I've been wondering how I'm going to pay the rent and continue to pay down credit, watch Cablevision, and have electricity in the apartment all at the same time. I'm guessing this is the case with most people. Of course, the economy will see a slight boost because Americans are so dumb that even if they're in the same place I and so many others are, they'll still choose to spend $300/$600/$1200 (depending on tax status) on a couple of Red Lobster dinners, a night at the movies, and the cheapest HDTV Wal-Mart has to offer.
9.7 million stimulus checks went out during the past week, totalling $7.5 billion in money that doesn't exist. Where did a government that owes billions in debt to China alone each day come up with this nest egg? Answer: They didn't. It's more of printing green paper out of thin air. Even more ludicrous are the letters that taxpayers receive informing them of when they'll receive their check. About half of folks I talk to receive their check BEFORE they receive the notification letter. Not particularly helpful, huh? I was one of those people. Check came last Saturday, notice of check came two days later. On its face it may not seem important, but how many millions of extra dollars - that don't actually exist - is our government spending on man hours, postage and paper to get these letters out?
CNN Money, MSNBC and other "financial experts" are writing columns advising folks on how to best invest this money. Yet in actuality, anyone who can afford to invest anything didn't receive a check. As I mentioned earlier, the money is all spent, and that leads to a yet another paradox. How can you stimulate an economy with billions of dollars that have already been spent? The answer is you can't. The unfortunate reality is that you can tell the public you can and they'll believe you.
While the sheeple were busy cashing out this week, we quietly had one of the most disastrous financial performances in recent memory. The past seven days saw oil reach $143/barrel, the Pound hit $1.99/$, the Euro spike back to $1.57/$ and the stock market plummet back towards 11,000 (when just a few months ago we were well above 14,000). If it weren't so sad, it would be comical that this all happened during the week when our criminal government stepped up its economic "stimulization." Analysts added that we're solidly headed toward the worst economic June since 1930. Yes, that was during the Great Depression.
All of this said, I'm not in the least surprised. After all, I watched Alex Jones's 2007 film Endgame: Blueprint for Global Enslavement. In that film was extensive coverage of the 2006 Bilderberg Group meeting outside of Ottawa, CA. It was leaked back then that the global crime syndicate's aim was $200/barrel oil. Almost two years later, we now have the largest criminal financial firms squawking about oil between $150-$170/barrel by the end of the summer. Whenever the MSM and the elite financiers begin coming close to telling the truth, you can bet the farm we're in far more than dire straits. True economists like Paul Craig Roberts (father of Reaganomics), Bob Chapman (The International Forecaster), and Joseph Stiglitz (former head of The World Bank) have been warning of $200 or more/barrel oil for quite some time now. Not that MSM ever gave this any airtime.
Those who have the most to lose are those who have had the money to make investments over the past 5 to 10 years. These are the same people who were sure they were part of "the establishment." When our financial system finally collapses for good, these are the poor souls who will be most affected. And as terrible as it sounds, I don't feel the least bit sorry for them. After all, these are the folks who have enabled the MSM and the government to continue lying to everyone because it made them feel safe, powerful, and part of the "winning team."
For the rest of us, soon we'll need to come up with a warm, welcoming speech for our new teammates.

If You Call Grandma to Say Hello, You Could Be al-Qaeda
Last Friday the House of Reps. voted 293-129 in favor of the FISA Amendment Act. While the MSM was simply calling it an overhaul of the 1978 domestic surveillance law, in essence it's further destruction (if that's possible) of the 4th Amendment. Not only does the law grant telecomm companies immunity for warantless spying, it gives them retroactive pardons for all past felonies committed against the American people.
Any phone call, email, IM, or text message is fair game. No warrant necessary to listen to your neighbor have phone sex with his secretary or your cousin fight with her boyfriend. After all, anything said could be al-Qaeda code words and a threat to national security. Bush openly admits that in 2005 he ordered the shadowy NSA to intercept any communication between residents who are suspected of terrorism. Of course these days that includes 9/11 Truthers, anyone who references our Constitution, anyone who questions the government, and on and on.
The Bush Administration until now had refused to share any records of this program with the courts. Now the courts will be able to review records, but what's the difference? If they let Bush get away with not sharing up to this point, why would they all of a sudden care who is being spied on?
The justification for the telecomm immunity is that the companies have been so cooperative in the war on terror that we must protect them from lawsuits. After all, it's not like they've committed a felony each and every time they've lawlessly spied on U.S. citizens. So basically their pandering to the Neo-Cons has earned them a free pass. Not unlike our cherry picking of which dictatorships around the world to foster and which to annihilate.
The Dems don't get off the hook here though. First off, Nancy Pelosi voted for this, and thinks it's just grand. Senate majority leader Harry Reid runs around acting like it's a travesty, meanwhile admitting that he won't make a commitment one way or the other until he gives the law a full review. Complete posturing.
Unfortunately, Ron Paul had a prior commitment last Friday and was unable to cast a vote. However, he did get up on the Hill this week and said, "I have strongly opposed every previous FISA overhaul attempt and I certainly would have voted against this one as well." The congressmen also pointed out that this is ex post facto law and that such is clearly prohibited in Article I Section 9 of the Constitution. So, there's another amendment violated by this "law."
The current incarnation of this treason is set to expire in 2012. By then, corporate interests will probably be able to rape, pillage and murder with immunity. Wait, they already do.

Does It Even Matter Anymore What a Radio Host Says?
Once again we have Don Imus at the forefront of a racial brouhaha. The difference is, this time what he said seems to have been completely misconstrued. Even if it wasn't, what difference does it make anyway? We have a completely ambiguous remark resonating throughout the entire filthy MSM, while not one iota of the CIA-run trash has yet to comment on the June 10 Michael Reagan solicitation of murder against 9/11 Truthers.
Let's get real here people. This election is shaping up to be the most divisive and appalling in history. Tragically, we have two inept New World Order minions on either side. Even more tragically, one is black, one is white, the general public can't see past color, the NWO hates us all equally, and all the while we're headed more and more rapidly into complete tyranny. The MSM has really done it this time. Their cover up of 9/11 was stellar. Their wholesale pitch on the Iraq war worked like a charm. They've managed to sell the retarded public on the complete destruction of the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Amendments. Now, they're ready to send the U.S. into total war in the streets over race.
Neither McCain or Obama has any legitimate platform. Case in point - we've been relegated thus far to talking points about race, public over private campaign funds, and who's tougher on terror. It's laughable. No matter how much our dollar is devalued, no matter how much oil prices increase, no matter how much more we pay for milk, cheese, juice, or any product containing corn, the sheeple still manage to gravitate toward terrorism. When will we wake up? IT'S ALL STAGED!!! It doesn't matter who is president. One month into Clinton's first term we have the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Eight months into the first George W. term, we have 9/11. God only knows what's in store this time. These puppets run nothing!
We're in a race against time. Before the current Neo-Con criminal empire is up and one of these stooges takes office, will we be able to convince enough of the general public that - minus about 5 of more than 500 members of Congress - they ALL need to be thrown out and tried for treason; both parties, no exceptions.

Paying Respects to George Carlin
It would be pointless for me to sit here and try to recap pioneer comedian George Carlin's career and lists of achievements. I only know that like millions of others I was blown away not only by the unparalleled humor of his performances, but also his keen insight into the world and how people operate.
Anyone who's ever watched a Carlin performance knows he was as anti-establishment as anyone. What's probably much less known is that while he was not a 9/11 Truther, he heavily supported the movement's principles and did not believe "the received reality" of the events around the attacks.
At an appearance in NYC last fall, Carlin made the following statement while discussing 9/11 Truth:
"They don't investigate themselves in this country - it would be a whitewash, it would be like the Kennedy thing, it would be like everything. The people who are in charge do what they want and they will always do what they want, power does what it wants to and I wouldn't trust an investigation."
Carlin will be sorely missed. Hopefully there is someone out there now we don't know of who can contribute 1/100th of the wisdom and truth he imparted.
