WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE THEY SPRAYING?
Those white streaks trailing behind aircraft, from horizon to horizon, turning the sky into a murky haze, are not mere vapor trails from jet engines, but who is doing this and why? A new industry called Geo-engineering, driven by governments, scientists, and corporations, is intent on changing climate and con-trolling weather, supposedly for the good of mankind.

The US Senate passed an amendment to the 2013 National Defense Authorization Act that appears to protect Americans from indefinite detention, but doesn't. [The act says that citizens may not be indefinitely detained without charges or "unless an Act of Congress expressly authorizes such detention." In other words, rights may not be denied by the government unless the government wants to deny them.] Business Insider 2012 Nov 30 (Cached)

Syrian government turned off the Internet and some telephones within its borders while anonymous hackers vow to continue attacks on its websites. [It is not clear why web site attacks would continue if the Internet is closed down, but this is an indication of how chaotic the scene is becoming in that beleaguered nation. Obama is considering directly arming Syrian rebels.] Information Week 2012 Nov 30 (Cached)

California: Sabotage suspected at San Onofre nuclear power plant. [The plant was shut down earlier this year because of leaking radiation from defective tubes. Edison Power plans to restart at 70% capacity to see what happens.] East County Magazine 2012 Nov 30 (Cached)

The UN voted to grant non-member observer status to a Palestinian state in Gaza and the West Bank. [While this is primarily a symbolic gesture of support, nevertheless, it puts pressure on Israel to return Palestinian borders to their pre-1967 location. Israel fears that Palestinians will gain membership in the International Criminal Court and press charges against Israel for its activities in Gaza.] Baltimore Sun 2012 Nov 29 (Cached)

UK: Incidents of phone hacking by the tabloid media are being used by the government as justification for a new bureaucracy to regulate and oversee the news media. [There already are plenty of laws on the books that prohibit phone hacking of this kind, so this is primarily just an excuse for a power grab.] WSJ 2012 Nov 29 (Cached)

US: Senator Rand Paul says that Congress will dump a "big, ugly bag of tax and debt increases" on Americans before leaving for Christmas vacation. [He pledges to vote against them.]
New American 2012 Nov 28 (Cached)

Brussels: Angry farmers hose riot police and the EU Parliament building with milk in protest over fixed milk prices that don't allow farmers to operate at a profit. [It is sad to see the world being devoured by collectivism. If politicians would just let go and allow free men exchange their goods and services in a free market without political intervention, prices would reach their correct level, production would reach its correct level, and all this conflict would cease within 90 days.] BBC 2012 Nov 28

US: Dallas Federal Reserve President Richard Fisher predicts "horrific consequences" from the Fed's policy of unlimited quantitative easing
[which is a euphemism for creating vast quantities of new money out of nothing but debt and, thereby, causing even more inflation.]
Activist Post 2012 Nov 28 (Cached)

Maharashtra, India: The government admits that Monsanto's genetically engineered (GE) cotton will likely reduce yields by 40%. [GE crops are costly failures.] NaturalSociety 2012 Nov 28 (Cached)

US: The EPA has temporarily banned BP Oil from government contracts after several employees were charged with crimes stemming from the Gulf blowout in 2010.
The Hill 2012 Nov 28 (Cached)

New York: Albany Sheriff Deputy Stan Lenic steps forward to protect the rights of activists handing out flyers about body scanners at the airport. [This is not exactly a news video but it certainly is interesting to see how the action slowly unfolds. It's nice to know there are some good cops out there.] InfoWars 2012 Nov 27

US: Healthcare giant, Kaiser Permanente, condemned GMOs in a recent newsletter and gave advice on how to avoid them. NaturalSociety 2012 Nov 27 (Cached)

New study shows that mammograms have resulted in over-diagnosis and unnecessary treatment for breast cancer, because one-third of tumors detected are harmless.

PBS featured a show on how one lady grows vegetables in her front yard and makes it look like a flower garden – almost. [It's really quite attractive – and it produces a lot of food.]
YouTube posted 2012 Nov 26

Australia's largest supermarket chains, Coles and Woolworth's, are refusing to sell company-branded pork and eggs from animals that are kept in factory farms. [Because these stores have an 80% share of the market, this will go a long way toward ending animal cruelty at factory farms.]
Huff Post 2012 Nov 26 (Cached)

US: The White House is drafting a rulebook for drone-strikes to determine who shall be killed and under what circumstances. [It is reported that the rules authorize killing "suspected or unknown" militants. These could include anyone carrying weapons in areas controlled by groups that are considered to be hostile to the US government or its leaders.] NY Mag 2012 Nov 25 (Cached)

US: Congress issues a report that fully blames Jon Corzine for the bankruptcy of MF Global and for losing customer funds. [As expected, however, it appears that Corzine will get off scot-free and avoid criminal prosecution. No matter how great their crimes, those in the banking fraternity almost always are given a "Get-out-of-jail-free card."] Bloomberg 2012 Nov 25 (Cached)

Britain's socialized medicine program is broke, with a current $32 billion deficit. [To try to reduce the shortfall, doctors' consultations will be done on the Internet. That certainly will reduce the cost – but also the quality – of health care.]
Express UK 2012 Nov 25 (Cached)

US: Since 1960, health-care spending at all levels of government has risen more than any other sector. [It has risen a whopping 1,377%. This short article contains a chart that compares health-care spending with other major outlays. It is astounding.] FreedomsPhoenix 2012 Nov 25 (Cached)

UK: Three foster children have been removed from their homes by a local council because the foster parents are supporters of the UK Independence Party. [That's the party that has opposed the European Union and unlimited immigration.] YouTube 2012 Nov 24

Nuclear-weapons conference for the Middle East was postponed by the US due to the expected bashing of Israel over its latest action in Gaza. [Israel says that Iran intends to build nuclear weapons, but there is no proof of that. On the other hand, Israel has hundreds of nuclear weapons and refuses to sign the Non-Proliferation Treaty.]
Yahoo 2012 Nov 24 (Cached)

E-mails reveal that not a single US soldier or sailor witnessed Osama bin Laden's secret burial at sea. [And there was no autopsy or DNA test, or any other proof that it happened at all.]
DailyMail Posted 2012 Nov 24 (Cached)

A 60% majority of Britons want to leave the EU. [The EU budget currently is being negotiated and, even though it now costs Britons $85 million per day (53 million British Pounds) to be a member of the European common market, no one is talking about cuts in spending. Voters now want out. Unfortunately, it is unlikely that they will be given an option to do so.] YouTube Posted 2012 Nov 24

Central banks globally are quietly buying significant quantities of gold and have raised it to a favored asset for commercial banks to hold for capital equity and reserves.

                            ANALYSIS
Reports and commentaries that look beyond the news to identify historical facts and trends that must be understood to place the news into perspective. This is our "think-tank" section that makes it possible to anticipate future events.

Judge Napolitano applauds the Senate committee that recommended rescinding current law-enforcement powers to snoop on email communications. [Let us hope that the Senate itself will pass this bill.] Fox Insider 2012 Nov 29

Fluoride in public tap water is highly poisonous. [In this short video segment that was removed from the documentary, The Great Culling, to keep it from running too long, you can see what effect it had on four prize-winning horses. And humans are drinking that stuff, too.]
YouTube 2012 Nov 28

Financial analyst compares the current state of Western economies to the fall of the Soviet Union [a zero-growth economy with shrinking resources distributed by a totalitarian government and an enforced equality - except for the elite.] InfoWars 2012 Nov 28 (Cached)

Judge Napolitano discusses the Senate's current debate on Internet privacy. [In spite of the 4th Amendment right to privacy, the government is preparing guidelines on how and when to spy on citizens without a warrant for any reason (or even on a whim). They are planning to monitor every keystroke made on your computer, which will include passwords and pin numbers.]
Fox Insider 2012 Nov 27

Black Friday shoppers quickly resort to violence to obtain electronic devices, fancy clothing, and other non-essential consumer items. [Imagine what these mobs of people will do if they run out of food and water in times of economic collapse or civil unrest. Are you prepared?]
NaturalSociety Posted 2012 Nov 24

Australian entrepreneurs are growing vegetables year-round in the desert using solar heat and power. [Mirrors that track the sun provide focused heat to desalinate sea water, and solar panels generate electricity for climate control inside greenhouses. The program looks promising, but only time will tell if it can be scaled up to meet commercial demand.] Guardian 2012 Nov 24 (Cached)

Tony Cartalucci, writing in Activist Post, says the recent cease-fire between Israel and Hamas is part of a strategy by the US and Israel to weaken Syria. [The goal is to give credit for the cease-fire to Egyptian diplomacy and to build a credible "Saudi-Qatari-Egyptian-Turkey axis" to be called the "new Middle East." This coalition will be solidly aligned with the US and will work to isolate Syria. Interesting to say the least.]
Activist Post 2012 Nov 22 (Cached)

Exxon Mobile has one of the largest lobbying groups in DC. Why is it supporting a carbon tax? [Because Exxon is invested in natural gas and it wants to increases costs for its competitor, the coal industry, and knock it out of the market.] FreedomsPhoenix 2012 Nov 21 (Cached)

Chuck Woolery explains the importance of the Second Amendment and why gun control is a tool of tyranny. YouTube posted 2012 Nov 20

FEMA camp for victims of New Jersey Hurricane Sandy is a freezing tent city operated like a prison. Guards are everywhere, black helicopters patrol the sky, inmates even have to show ID to use the bathrooms. [Apparently, FEMA is following the rule book prepared for these camps which really are designed as prisons, not rescue camps. FEMA is spending $300 million per day on this operation and is asking Congress for a bailout to cover the cost – yet it is turning away food and water donations from the private sector. This article, written by Chuck Norris (the Hollywood karate star) is an eye-opener for things to come.] WND 2012 Nov 18 (Cached)

YOU CANNOT MULTIPLY WEALTH BY DIVIDING IT
Posted 2011 Nov 24 from: Frank Davis
“You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”

NEIGHBORS LIKED THE LOOK OF SQUASH

I had squash growing in a large portion of my front yard this last summer. These plant just grow right over everything. My neighbors thought it looked cool and now I have some winter squash. This person may have a PR problem.

A JURY WOULD LIKELY SAY A VEGETABLE GARDEN HAS A "FINISHED APPEARANCE"
2012 Nov 17 from DJ Wolinsky
An "ordinance", as with any law is not black and white, at least until precedent is set. Any decent lawyer will successfully force the court to define what constitutes "ground cover to have a finished appearance" (especially if it can be decided by a jury of peers). If put to a vote I sincerely doubt the public would consider a garden as "unfinished appearance", and a judge would have to feel pretty invincible to countermand. It's a shame that it will probably need to be decided in the courts, but it would draw more attention to the shameless trampling of inalienable rights being perpetrated.

 




THE GREAT CULLING – OUR WATER
There is a large granite monument in Elbert County, Georgia, known as the Georgia Guide-stones. Who paid for it is a mystery. Inscribed on it are ten commandments, written in twelve languages, for what it describes as an Age of Reason. Many believe it is an agenda for the New World Order. The first commandment is: “Maintain human-ity under 500 million in perpetual balance with nature.” Since the world population now stands at over seven billion, that means the commandment calls for the elimination of 93% of the world’s population. It already has begun. (More)




 

A NOBLE LIE
Oklahoma City 1995
Plato explained in his Republic that a noble lie is a myth or untruth told by an elite to maintain social harmony. After viewing this documentary, you will understand that the official story of what happened in 1995 to the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City is a noble lie of the highest order. The reason for this crime was to create a public backlash against those who are critical of government policies, thus silencing them for fear of being labeled as domestic terrorists. Here are the facts that support that conclusion. (More)


WHY IN THE WORLD ARE THEY SPRAYING? Geo-engineering and Weather Control.
Why are we being sprayed? Answers: (1) Metallic nano- particles in the stratosphere make it possible to control the weather, which is a military priority for many countries. (2) Weather Derivatives are traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange as insurance against loss of crops due to bad weather. If you can covertly control the weather, you can make a fortune by always being right. Your friends who still think that chemtrails are just water vapor will be stunned by the revelations in this program. DVD. (More)





WORLD WITHOUT CANCER
The Story of Vitamin B17
G. Edward Griffin
marshals evidence that cancer is a deficiency disease, like scurvy or pellagra, caused by the lack of an essential food factor in modern man’s diet. That substance is vitamin B17, also known as Laetrile. This story is not approved by orthodox medicine. The FDA, the AMA, and The American Cancer Society have labeled it fraud and quackery. Yet the evidence is clear that here is the answer to the cancer riddle. Why has orthodox rejected this non drug approach? The author contends that the answer is to be found, not in science, but in politics – based upon the economic and power agenda of those who dominate the medical establishment. Sale now in progress. (More)


LAETRILE CASE HISTORIES
The Richardson Cancer Clinic Experience, by J.A. Richardson, M.D. & Patricia Griffin, R.N. 62 case histories proving beyond any doubt that Laetrile (Vitamin B17) works in the control of cancer. These are not anecdotal stories or people who never had cancer in the first place. Each history is authenticated by a firm diagnosis and meticulous medical documentation. Includes a follow up 30 years after patients were diagnosed as "incurable," Proof is in the life-span of these people who, previously, had been told by their doctors that they had just a few months or weeks to live.

WHO'S WHO OF THE ELITE V. 9
Membership lists for Bilderbergs, CFR, Skull & Bones, and The Trilateral Commis-sion. People speak of the “ruling elite” but seldom mention names. Well, here they are. Drawing from membership lists of the world’s most powerful and, in some cases, secret organizations, the names emerge in alphabetical order and cross-indexed by affiliation. Descriptions of each organization are included. Version 9 has been updated to include the most current information available. It would take years of research to duplicate this amazing compendium..

SILENT CLOTS; LIFE'S BIGGEST KILLERS by James Privitera, M.D.
This is the story of a diagnostic tool called the Dark-field Microscope and how it is used to detect the early stages of blood clotting that, if untreated, can develop into poor circulation, heart attack, or stroke. It also shows what you can do about eliminating those clots without expensive drugs with dangerous side effects. $15. Order directly from the author by calling, toll-free: 1-888--220-7888.


DEAD WRONG
How Psychiatric Drugs Can Kill Your Child. This is the story of one mother’s quest to find out why her happy, outgoing son committed suicide shortly after being placed on psychiatric drugs. She discovered that suicidal and homicidal impulses are well-known side effects of these drugs, yet psychiatrists claim they are safe. Once you hear what health experts, drug counselors, and doctors say, you will conclude that psychiatrists are dead wrong. DVD (More)


THE SECOND DALLAS; WHO KILLED RFK?
This documentary challenges the official version of Robert Kennedy’s assassination. 11 bullets were found that supposedly came from Sirhan Sirhan’s 8-bullet gun. The coroner found powder burns on RFK’s ear next to the fatal shot in the back of his head and testified that the gun had to be only 2 or 3 inches away for that effect, but that Sirhan fired his pistol in front of RFK and was 3 to 6 feet away. An expert on hypnotism, after hypnotizing Sirhan in prison, said he could have been programmed under hypnotism prior to the assassination? Astounding facts withheld from the jury, blatant forgeries, and destroyed evidence on the part of authorities add up to a world-class cover-up. (More)


THE CREATURE FROM JEKYLL ISLAND; A SECOND LOOK AT THE FEDERAL RESERVE  by
G. Edward Griffin
This is the classic exposé of the Fed that has become one of the best-selling books in its category of all time. This new 5th Edition includes a no-holds barred analysis of bank bailouts under the Bush and Obama Administrations that are shown to be nothing less than legalized plunder of the American people. Many other updates have been added, including a revision to the list of those who attended the historic meeting at Jekyll Island where the Federal Reserve was created. (More)


CANCER; THE FORBIDDEN CURES
Cancer is the only disease that has been defeated dozens of times without anyone knowing it. In the last 100 years, dozens of doctors, scientists, and researchers have developed diverse and effective solutions against cancer only to be thwarted by the political and propaganda power of the drug-dominated medical profession. This is the story of Essiac, Hoxsey, Laetrile, Shark Cartilage, Mistletoe, and Bicarbonate of Soda all put together in a stunning overview that leaves no doubt that inexpensive cures for cancer do exist but are systematically blocked by Big Pharma because they come from nature and cannot be patented.

PROJECT RED PILL
The Matrix is one of the most talked about movies of recent time and is perceived by many as a metaphor of real life. Project Red Pill will rescue our fellow humans from the Matrix, allowing them to choose reality over delusion. The first step is to create a flow of information independent of mainstream media. Most people in the Matrix are wired up to television, so video is where we must start. (More)


REMOVE CHLORINE FROM YOUR SHOWER
It is common for health-conscious families to install chlorine-removal filters in their kitchens, but it has been estimated that we absorb more chlorine through our skin when taking a bath than we ever could from drinking water. That is because the body's skin surface is larger than the intestinal surface and because the lungs, too, are very efficient absorbers, and we inhale a substantial amount of chlorine gas while bathing. Benefits of de-chlorinated water are reduced exposure to toxic chlorine, healthier, younger looking skin; softer, more manageable hair; less fading of color-treated hair; relief from dry skin and scalp; and better lathering. Removes 90% or more of chlorine. (More)



 

GLOBAL WARMING
AND GLOBAL FEUDALISM
A discourse by G. Edward Griffin
Without notes or preparation, Griffin fields questions about the United Nations, global warming, and how these topics are tied together. Here are some of the issues covered:
Is the UN our last best hope for peace or the foundation for global feudalism? Is the UN controlled by leaders of nations or by hidden structures and power brokers? If the latter, who are they? Are American elitists motivated by love of country, desire for international harmony, or something less admirable? Is it possible to get out of the UN, or have we passed the point of no return? With regard to global warming, what is Agenda 21? Is forced population-control justified to save the planet? Is the UN's report on global warming based on valid science? If not, then what? If the mission of the World Health Organization is not world health, then what? What are the IMF and World Bank and why should anyone care about them? What is the Freedom Force strategy for reversing the trend toward global feudalism? (More)


OVER-THE-COUNTER NATURAL CURES by “The People’s Chemist”, Shane Ellison, M.S. A former chemist for Big Pharma tells how drugs are highly toxic and, in many cases, cause greater illness than they alleviate. But the nutritional supplements sold in health-food stores also are manufactured by pharmaceutical companies and are not the “natural” products we assume they are. Synthetic vitamins may be chemically similar to those in nature but they are devoid of the co-factors found in the natural state, and that means that vitamins in a pill are far less effective than in foods and herbs. This led Ellison to examine thousands of natural sources, to identify those that are loaded with complete nutrition. In the process, he found some that can produce astounding reversals of such chronic diseases as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and even cancer – all for under $10 for a 30-day supply. This book could save you thousands of dollars and may even save your life. (More)


THE NEW AMERICAN CENTURY
The Secret Plan for World Domination. This documentary provides the missing link for the truth about 9/11. The missing link is MOTIVE. If you cannot imagine why anyone would want to cover up essential evidence, then wonder no more. Taken from the words of the plotters themselves, you will come to understand that a terrorist attack was exactly what they hoped for to justify a massive military incursion into the Middle East, all of which was planned long before 9/11. You will witness decades of maneuvering for the control of oil and gas resources and see, first hand, incredible war profits on a scale much greater than ever before in history. Even if you are familiar with some of these events, this is the first time all of them have been brought together in one place. (More)

THE FEDERAL RESERVE
A Discourse by G. Edward Griffin
The author of The Creature from Jekyll Island; A Second Look at the Federal Reserve addresses such issues as: Who created the Fed? How is money created?
What impact has this had on the American Dollar? Should our currency be backed by gold or silver? Where does government get most of its funding? Why do bankers get away with it? What might happen if we continue on our current path? What might come from a return to constitutional money? (More)
