Thousands of Troops are Deployed on US Streets to Carry out “Crowd Control”

Members of Congress were told they could face martial law if they didn’t pass the
bailout bill. This will not be the last time.

Thousands of Troops Are Deployed on U.S. Streets Ready to Carry Out “Crowd
Control”
By Naomi Wolf
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article20975.htm

08/10/08 “AlterNet” — Background: the First Brigade of the Third Infantry Division, three to four thousand soldiers, has been deployed in the United States as of October 1. Their stated mission is the form of crowd control they practiced in Iraq, subduing “unruly individuals,” and the management of a national emergency. I am in Seattle and heard from the brother of one of the soldiers that they are engaged in exercises now. Amy Goodman reported that an Army spokesperson confirmed that they will have access to lethal and non lethal crowd control technologies and tanks.

 

Martial Law Preparations in USA

This article that I got as Electronz Ezine 859 is extremely painful to read for me as a German. I used to blush every time I had to say to a Jew that I was German and I had to explain Nazism to myself. The author also notes the parallels between what happens in the USA now and in Germany then, and I have read about an 80-year old German who left the USA because he had seen it all before.

So what’s the cause? Money is being used to employ people. And they are ‘just doing their job’. They don’t think about what they are doing. They don’t know what they are doing. They feel good in a pack.

MARTIAL LAW PREPARATIONS IN USA.

Maybe the heading for this should be “Sleeping down the slide into Fascism”, as the “Bush protecting” print and electronic news media fails to report what future historians may well call ominous thunder claps, as Haliburton companies complete construction of over 200 “Detention Centres” scattered around the U.S. (with tens of thousands of empty beds) , and now in peacetime, combat trained soldiers are being deployed around the country to “protect” the administration.

Thanks to wide awake reporters like Verne Warwick, John Pilger, and Richard Moore, etc, networks are being provided with authenticated stories covering these frightening developments. We believe there is a desperate need for this sort of information to become public, and if possible, wake up the American citizenry, before it is too late. The parallels between these significant steps and those of Nazi Germany are breathtaking.

More details are given in the following RKM network story, so do not say you have not been warned.

 

Internet censorship

This video by investigative reporter Alex Jones is a must see on the way that the net is being controlled.

He calls de-humanization what I call de-democratization…

Wake up neo, that’s how Paradox calls it in his marvellous Matrix rap on this video:

 

Stop the “Cash Crumble” to Equalize the “Credit Crunch”

This on-line petition might just about make a difference by bringing cyber-democracy into the real world of politics. It addresses the root of all evils with the Parliamentary Committee responsible: the rather non-obvious ways in which ‘money’ is created and distributed as a ‘national currency’.

What is so sad is that and how the issuance of currency by bankers as Credit is abused and misused while the issuance of Cash by governments has lost all its significance – as long as everybody has their salary, perks and pension guaranteed…

One could go as far as saying: the creation of money is a legal privilege. But it has corrupted the law making process through Parliament and other rules and regulations that are hindering rather than helping. Hence a ‘criminal’ as opposed to ‘ethical’ system has become ‘criminogenic’, i.e. it engenders crime which has been rampant in the US for decades and it hitting Europe and the rest of the world in the name of ‘globalisation’…

Will a petition targeted at the Treasury Select Committee make a difference???

Please see details in the context of my other blog.

 

Naomi Klein: Big Oil’s Iraq deals are the greatest stick-up in history

Big Oil’s Iraq deals are the greatest stick-up in history

The country’s invaders should be paying billions in reparations not using the war as a reason to pillage its richest resource
Naomi Klein, The Guardian, Friday July 4, 2008

Once oil passed $140 a barrel, even the most rabidly rightwing media hosts had to prove their populist credibility by devoting a portion of every show to bashing Big Oil. Some have gone so far as to invite me on for a friendly chat about an insidious new phenomenon: “disaster capitalism.” It usually goes well – until it doesn’t.

 

Official 2008 Bilderberg Participant List

If Bilderberg does not mean anything to you, click to see what it says on Wikipedia. Punch called it “the world’s most powerful secret society.” In any case, the list below is an interesting synopsis of power: who is powerful and who is considered powerful enough to be invited – illustrating differences between political, financial and economic democracies. What they do have in common is the power of money. What varies is the power to control.

The War, the Truth and the New York Times

With thanks to David Soori:

“An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it”: Mohandas Gandhi The War, the Truth, and the New York Times Anwaar Hussain So finally the truth is acknowledged by the mother of all main stream media, the New York Times…Truth told late is worse than a murderous lie is all that one can say to the NYT. It is a dishonest admission coming rather late for a million plus human beings. The icing on this deceitful piece of reporting is the ending of the Op-Ed. It says, “We cannot say with certainty whether Mr. Bush lied about Iraq. But when the president withholds vital information from the public – or leads them to believe things that he knows are not true – to justify the invasion of another country, that is bad enough.” BAD ENOUGH! Did I read it right? Thatʼs it? BAD ENOUGH! Would you believe it? A million murdered Iraqis, 4000 dead US soldiers, obliterated Iraqi cities, DU shot-up environment, countless crippled and maimed human beings, innumerable shattered lives and how does the NYT express its outrage; by calling it ‘bad enoughʼ? “Sorry mommy, I just killed a million people.” “Thatʼs bad. Donʼt do that again, now eat your spinach” eh? Bad enough!?… Read the full article / Leggi l’articolo completo: http://www.uruknet.de/?p=44662

 

War Profits for Democracy in the US

War profits taint the greedy hands of more than 25% of members of the US House and Senate!

By Rev. Richard Skaff

Global Research, May 7, 2008

What do war, Congressmen, Senators, and the defense/offense industry have in common? The answer, if you haven’t already guessed is  “profits.”

Conflict makes money for the military industrial complex, and the cronies they place in Congress, the Senate, and the White House.

An investigation by Ralph Forbes from American Free press reported on May 05, 2008 that more than a quarter of US senators and congressmen have invested at least $196 million of their own money in companies doing business with the Department of Defense (DoD) that profit from the death and destruction in Iraq [1].

The New Immorality of Iraq War

by James Carroll

Insanity is defined as repeating one mistaken action again and again, each time expecting a better result that never comes. Prime example: the United States in Iraq. Washington perceived a weapons of mass destruction threat from Saddam Hussein, but instead of responding with diplomacy — internationally coordinated weapons inspections — it went to war. When Saddam Hussein was toppled, the initiative should have passed from the Pentagon to a State Department-led program of stabilization and reconstruction, but instead a crudely violent military occupation was begun. Diplomacy was once again rejected.

 

Western leaders are war criminals

‘Western Leaders Are War Criminals’

Former PM of Malaysia Mahathir Mohamad calls for Western leaders to be charged with war crimes

By Mick Meaney

Global Research, April 26, 2008

rinf.com

The former Prime Minister of Malaysia, Mahathir Mohamad, has echoed calls for Western leaders to be charged with war crimes over the illegal invasion of Iraq.

Speaking at Imperial College in London Mahathir, who was in office from 1981 to 2003, singled out US President George Bush, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Australia’s former prime minister John Howard as he wants to see them tried “in absence for war crimes committed in Iraq”.
