DECLARE WAR ON THE ISLAMIC STATE?
2016 Aug 19 from: Norann Dillon
Re: REV-UP AND STAND-DOWN – Need to Know News 2016 July 22.
Mr Griffin, Based on your writings and opinions, what are your thoughts on Congress going back to the basics and declaring War on the Islamic State? How would (or wouldn’t) that address the subject of your email [newsletter]? Thank you for all you do.
REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Norann. I’ll try to keep this short inasmuch as the basic issue is quite simple. The problem lies in the fact that the issue is controversial, and many will have trouble accepting my analysis without a great deal of evidence and documentation, which will not be possible in this brief response. Nevertheless, here it is:
I believe that America should follow the Constitution and not engage in war unless it is in response to a formal declaration of war by Congress. There is not much controversy over that part. But I do not think that America should declare war against the Islamic State, because the Islamic State is not a real state or nation or any other well-defined enemy. In fact, it is predominantly the creation of the CIA and other so-called national-security agencies of the federal government. It is the fulfillment of a strategy best summarized as the best enemy money can buy and is used to justify a strong military presence in the Middle East and a police state at home.
That is not to say that ISIS is not evil to the core, but it is to say that ISIS kills its own Islamic people if they get in the way of its plans, thus proving that Islam is not the driving force. The driving force is money and military support from the US and NATO countries. For Congress to declare war on ISIS on the assumption that it is a war on Islam would be to play into the hands of the cabal of CFR neocons who hatched the scheme in the first place. The real enemy is within.

DOG AND PONY SHOW
2015 Aug 22 from cadman
Ed, Re: “Is the government here to help you?” 2016 August 19 issue, I sent almost the exact same message today to someone I know. It’s obvious we’ve been ‘played’ by the rich and their stooge public officials since at least the Hylton case in the late 1700’s. Court is for making public policy and for political engineering; It’s never been for “justice” (nor even for “law enforcement” as Oliver Holmes said). It’s all just one gigantic, expensive, and costly “dog and pony show”!

Is the government here to help you?
Is the government here to help you?
If you still think the government is here to help you, the following short course on the sue-and-settle scam may change your mind.
G. Edward Griffin
2016 August 19
__________________________
The Obama administration has paid 49-million tax dollars to lawyers to sue the federal government. Furthermore, it won’t reveal who the lawyers are. [This is a scam and it works like this:
The government wants to expand power over one more area of human activity, but public opposition makes that politically difficult. So the administration makes ‘sue-and-settle’ agreements with so-called environmentalist groups in which the government pays the groups’ lawyers to sue the government, demanding the things that are unpopular with the public and Congress.
Government attorneys put up a weak defense and quickly agree to settlements that require compliance with most of the demands of the environmentalist groups.
Next, the government proceeds with the unpopular rules and regulations under the pretext of complying with a court order. In some cases, the groups that sponsor the suits are rewarded by large financial payments to further their missions – paid, of course, by taxpayers.
When all is done, the government invades yet one more sphere of human activity, and the public has no idea it has been scammed.] Daily Caller 2016 Aug 15 (Story) (Cached)

China has officially chosen sides in the war in Syria by providing training and aid to the Assad regime. Next News Network 2016 Aug 19 (Story)
Venezuela has the second highest murder rate in the world, and the new interior minister re-launched a gun-control campaign that kicked off with police destroying 2,000 shotguns and pistols in Caracas. The government will confiscate guns through involuntary seizures and a voluntary program to swap guns for electrical goods. [Because gangs commonly obtain weapons from corrupt police and because law-abiding citizens do not commit gun-related crimes, Venezuela’s gun violence likely will increase as a result of citizens not being able to defend themselves against criminals.] Reuters 2016 Aug 18 (Story) (Cached)
The US reportedly is moving 20 of the 50 tactical nuclear missiles that it stores in Turkey to Romania, which shares a border with Ukraine. US officials deny that report – but it is logical. In view of the new political instability in Turkey, the nukes stored there may be at risk of being seized by ISIS. The Pentagon says that nearly 40,000 Russian troops are massing on Russia’s border with Ukraine, including armored vehicles, tanks and fighter jets. InfoWars 2016 Aug 18 (Story) (Cached)

The US government is sued over aid to ‘nuclear’ Israel. A Washington DC non-profit group is suing the government for delivering foreign aid to Israel, because it is a nuclear power but has refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

Riots Brew in Milwaukee. An armed black man who refused to drop his gun was shot by a black policeman which spurred riots against police and white people. This is a summary of numerous news stories that are breaking on this issue. Need to Know news posted 2016 Aug 16 (Story)
CNN admits doctoring a video clip of Sherelle Smith, the sister of Sylville Smith who was shot by police, to make it look like she was calling for peace in her neighborhood. The unedited clip shows that she actually was telling rioters to take their violence and destruction to the suburbs where white people live. Milwaukee Police Chief Ed Flynn said that members of the Revolutionary Communist Party of Chicago showed up in Milwaukee the day after the shooting to further rile the city toward violence.

Mexico: The son of Sinaloa drug lord, Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ Guzman, may be among the six men abducted by gunmen at a restaurant in the beach resort of Puerto Vallarta. Police reported that the abductors and abductees are involved in organized crime but did not identify the gangs. The Jalisco New Generation cartel now is the dominant criminal force in the state and has battled the Sinaloa cartel for territory in other areas. ABC 2016 Aug 16 (Story) (Cached)
A group of hackers, called Shadow Brokers, claims to have stolen malware from the Equation Group, an NSA affiliate. It plans to sell the data for Bitcoin in an online auction. The stolen products are described as ‘cyber weapons’ made by the creators of Stuxnet, Duqu and Flame. WikiLeaks tweeted that it also is in possession of the data. [The terms of the auction are unattractive to bidders, and it is difficult to see how this is anything more than a stunt to call attention to the fact that this malware may have been used by US government agencies.] BBC 2016 Aug 16 (Story) (Cached)
Farmingham, New Mexico: The Navajo Nation is suing the Environmental Protection Agency for failure to clean up the toxic mess that the agency caused by releasing three-million gallons of sludge, containing acid and lead, into the Animas River last year. The Navajo Nation also is asking for compensation for thousands of farmers who rely on the San Juan River, which flows from the Animas, to irrigate crops and sustain livestock.

Aetna, the third largest health-insurance company in the US, confirmed that it is dropping Obamacare insurance in 11 of 15 states, where it currently offers plans, due to heavy losses.

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) has overwhelmingly approved a resolution calling on the American government to halt all financial and military aid to Israel if the building of settlements continues in East Jerusalem and the West Bank. It demands that Israel end its occupation of Palestine and recognize a Palestinian state. The ELCA has about four-million members in 10,000 congregations throughout the US.

Thailand: A wave of bombings in Thailand’s tourist areas last week is likely to be linked to southern Malay Muslim separatists who oppose the predominantly Buddhist Thai state. Beheadings, bombings, drive-by shootings, assassinations, and vicious assaults have left more than 6,300 people dead and at least 11,500 injured since 2004. This violence rarely is reported outside of Thailand. The military regime in Bangkok, which seized power in 2014, has ruled out terrorism. It is believed, however, that this is an effort to downgrade the perceived threat to avoid public support for political concessions to the separatists. SMH 2016 Aug 15 (Story) (Cached)
One woman died and two girls were in critical condition after being attacked on a Swiss train by a lone assailant. Authorities say there is no evidence that the attack was an act of terrorism, a politically motivated crime. Or motivated by xenophobia. Nevertheless, they are withholding information about the assailant. Reuters posted 2016 Aug 14 (Story)
Switzerland is withholding the name of the train attacker, allegedly to protect the right of privacy. All they will say is that the killer was a Swiss citizen, but his nationality and migration history are undisclosed. [Do you think they might withhold such information to conceal the fact that he was an immigrant? So do we.] Swiss Info 2016 Aug 15 (Story) (Cached)
Global-warmists are worried about the increasing number of people who do not believe that the graying of our skies is caused merely by water vapor from jet aircraft. Under the direction of Ken Caldeira, a professor at the Carnegie institution for Science (and a lobbyist for government funding for climate-engineering projects) they have assembled a group of scientists who, not only promote the myth of global warming, but are attempting to debunk the idea of ‘chemtrails’. They are deniers of an existing covert program to alter the Earth’s climate, supposedly to prevent global warming. Motherboard 2016 Aug 13 (Story) (Cached)
US Mainstream media have virtually ignored the new war on Libya, making it the fourth country that the US is bombing in its undeclared War on Terror.

Mike Morell, the former Deputy Director of the CIA while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, and who is a Clinton supporter, said that the war in Syria should be escalated by covertly killing Assad’s allies, including Russians and Iranians.

Over 2,500 emails from George Soros’ account have been leaked, revealing that he has funded political-advocacy groups, journalists, and social-media projects to influence politics in Europe, Russia, and the US. He has worked closely with USAID to create national destabilization and overthrow foreign governments.

The US is proceeding with the development of a new nuclear ‘smart bomb’. Instead of a guided missile that must be delivered from a launching pad on land or sea, the smart bomb is designed to be launched from fighter jets, which makes them far more versatile and less predictable. They also have internal guidance systems that make them extremely accurate in hitting targets. They will be the most expensive bombs ever made and will cost $11-billion for the first 400 bombs. The 30-year cost will be over $1-trillion. Reveal posted 2016 Aug 13 (Story) (Cached)
A report from financial expert, Charles Ortel, shows that the Clinton Foundation illegally took in $100-billion(!) since 1997, and he itemizes the channels through which it came. [Charities are required by law to operate only in accordance with its stated purpose which, in the case of the Clinton Foundation, is to serve as a presidential archive and research facility. The Foundation has never undergone a certified audit and it has no independent trustees. Because the federal government is unlikely to investigate the matter, since so many people in high places are complicit, Ortel is asking states and foreign governments to prosecute the Clintons for fraud. It is significant that Presidents lack jurisdiction to pardon a defendant from state or foreign prosecution.] Stefan Molyneux posted 2016 Aug 13 (Story)

Dear Dorothy,
My husband is a liar and a cheat. He has cheated on me from the beginning and when I confront him, he denies everything. What’s worse, everyone knows he cheats on me and it is so humiliating. Also, since he lost his job 14 years ago, he hasn’t even looked for a new one. All he does all day is smoke cigars, cruise around and shoot pool with his buddies and have sex with hookers, while I work so hard to pay our bills….
Since our daughter went away to college and then got married; he doesn’t even pretend to like me, and hints to everyone that I may be a lesbian. What should I do? I’m Confused, H.C.
Dear Confused: Grow up and dump him, you don’t need him anymore! Good grief woman, you’re running for President of the United States!

THE BRIGHT SIDE OF REALISM
posted 2016 Aug 6 from Bill Madden
My mood brightens (optimism) when I read Henry’s realistic assessment of how bad things really are (pessimism) in our once-great country. To fix a problem, you must first realize that there is a problem. Next, it is important to define the problem so that suitable remedies might be considered.
Financially, our country is bankrupt and, believe it or not, we the people are responsible for all of the debts and unfunded liabilities. I guess that’s why we have Social Security numbers so that all of our bank and investment accounts are available for government confiscation. Please Google “IRA Confiscation” and learn that it is being discussed.
We used to export our energy, we had a world-class manufacturing base, we were a creditor nation, our immigrants became Americans, debt was used sparingly, we never paid humans not to work and our money was real, not fiat. Now, the opposite is true and most of us don’t even realize it.

APRICOT SEEDS NOW PART OF DIET

Hello Mr. Griffin, I want to thank you for all the research you have done with the writing of your “World Without Cancer”. It was last year around September when I ran into a Youtube video where you spoke about the apricot seeds. I was actually searching for a cure for my father’s Alzheimers. Since then we have made the seeds part of our diet. My 25 year-old son was diagnosed with testicular cancer in June of this year. I believe our God put your research in my path last year in preparation.

Trump blows it again
or is he right?
Featured Stories

Regardless of differences of opinion on the merits and demerits of Donald Trump, I think most of us take satisfaction from the fact that his popularity proves that the American people are tired of political correctness. The Donald has made enough politically incorrect statements to dislodge a hundred political candidates who are cowed by such things. For him, however, he just sticks out his chin and, in effect, says: “Yup. That’s what I said. You have a problem with that?” and people love it, not necessarily because they agree with him, but because he is … well, different from the rest.
This week, Trump did it again but, ironically, it turns out that his remark about Obama and Hillary being ‘founders’ of ISIS is closer to the truth than most people realize, depending only on the intended definition of the word “founder”.
As the following stories illustrate, ISIS really is the creation of the US State Department and the CIA, and that fact now is openly admitted even by Obama and Hillary. The spin, of course, is that, although this has turned out to be a huge problem for the world today, back at the time the policy was being developed, it was a good thing because, supposedly, it was necessary to prevent the Soviets from maintaining a stronghold in the Middle East.
The point here is, not whether or not that spin is correct, but simply that, politically incorrect or not, Trump is right, and it’s time the American people and world leaders face that fact squarely.

Infowars comes to the defense of Donald Trump and presents proof that he was correct when he said that Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are founding members of ISIS. The reasoning is that they earned that title when they supported the bankrolling and arming of jihadists in Syria and Libya. Clinton even admitted in 2009 that the US government was responsible for al-Qaeda, which then morphed into ISIS. InfoWars 2016 Aug 11 (Story) (Cached)
Reporter David Knight decodes recent media reports, including one from the NY Times that admits the US is fighting a proxy war against Russia in Syria. Russia’s proxy is the regime of Syrian President Assad that is fighting against the US-backed ‘rebel offensive’ which is a euphemism for al-Qaeda, al-Nusra, and ISIS. The NY Times also admits that the rebel offensive (including ISIS) is aided by the CIA and Saudi Arabia. This is the key that unlocks the puzzle of why ISIS is a proxy for the US. Sad but true.

Syria: Last week, a large cache of weapons was found in territory formerly controlled by ISIS that were left behind by rebels from an al-Nusra group. Most of the weapons appear to be of US origin. Among the items are mortars, guided missiles and American TOW anti-tank missile systems. PressTV posted 2016 Aug 9 (Story)
The US delivered 50 armored vehicles, 40 artillery pieces, and 50 grenade launchers to the Lebanese army as part of an aid package of $220 million this year. It is said to be intended to bolster Lebanon against a threat from militant groups on its border with Syria. [However, if events unfold according to previous moves of this kind, we would not be surprised if, somehow, these weapons fall into the hands of ISIS just as they did in Syria and Afghanistan. Terrorist organizations could not survive without ‘mistakes and blunders’ of this kind. Without terrorist organizations, the US military would have no excuse to be in the Middle East.] Alarabiya 2016 Aug 9 (Story) (Cached)

Florida: Seddique Mateen, the father of Omar Mateen, the Orlando shooting-event gunman, went to a rally for Hillary Clinton and sat in the audience behind her where he was filmed on camera. Later he spoke with a reporter and voiced his support for Clinton and gun control. He said that he wished his son had joined the military and fought ISIS. When the reporter asked him what he was thinking when Hillary was speaking about the Orlando shooting, he answered: “We were helping. We were cooperating with the federal government, the FBI. That’s what I was thinking.” The scenario is astounding: The man is a Hillary supporter, he believes that gun control is good for America, and he and his son (the shooter) were cooperating with the FBI at the Orlando incident. It doesn’t get any clearer than that. WPTV 2016 Aug 9 (Story) [We suggest you save a copy of his video statement.]
Seddique Mateen had a strange background of attempting to be influential in political movements. He supported the Taliban in Afghanistan and even announced on his own YouTube channel that he was the president-in-exile of Afghanistan. He apparently had tried to meet with State Department officials, but the government says it has no record of that. RT posted 2016 Aug 9 (Story)

The US Drug Enforcement Agency mines Americans’ travel data from airline companies and AMTRAK to identify people who may be carrying large amounts of cash. Under the guise of looking for drug dealers, the DEA has taken cash from people for reasons as benign as having paid cash for their ticket or simply traveling one-way to California. DEA units seized more than $20-million in cash from at least 5,200 people over the past decade, and most of that money was given to local police departments that provided officers to assist the drug agency.

Shahram Amiri, an Iranian nuclear scientist, appeared in a video claiming he had been kidnapped by the CIA and Saudi agents six years ago. Shortly thereafter, another video was posted stating that he had come to the US voluntarily, but missed his son in Iran. He was quickly reunited with his son in Iran, but then disappeared a few weeks later amid rumors he had been imprisoned as a spy. Over the past weekend Amiri was hanged for revealing the country’s top secrets to the enemy. Hillary Clinton may have contributed to his fate, because Amiri’s name was exposed in her unsecured emails, and she referred to him as “our friend”. NY Times 2016 Aug 7 (Story) (Cached)

Unraveling Sandy Hook, produced by Sofia Smallstorm, is a controversial analysis of the Sandy Hook mass shooting. Her analysis will be rejected by many as absurd. By others, it will be accepted as self-evident truth. Some of the many unanswered questions: Why did Medical Examiner Wayne Carver prevent the parents from physically verifying the identity of their own children? Why did state police (Lt. Paul Vance) threaten to prosecute people who discussed Sandy Hook on social media? Why is there no information on the suspects who were seen running into the woods after the shooting? Why were death certificates and 911 recordings withheld from the public. This documentary is included here without comment so that each of us can judge for ourselves.

THE BRIGHT SIDE OF REALISM
posted 2016 Aug 6 from Bill Madden
My mood brightens (optimism) when I read Henry’s realistic assessment of how bad things really are (pessimism) in our once-great country. To fix a problem, you must first realize that there is a problem. Next, it is important to define the problem so that suitable remedies might be considered.
Financially, our country is bankrupt and, believe it or not, we the people are responsible for all of the debts and unfunded liabilities. I guess that’s why we have Social Security numbers so that all of our bank and investment accounts are available for government confiscation. Please Google “IRA Confiscation” and learn that it is being discussed.
We used to export our energy, we had a world-class manufacturing base, we were a creditor nation, our immigrants became Americans, debt was used sparingly, we never paid humans not to work and our money was real, not fiat. Now, the opposite is true and most of us don’t even realize it.

Hello Mr. Griffin, I want to thank you for all the research you have done with the writing of your “World Without Cancer”. It was last year around September when I ran into a Youtube video where you spoke about the apricot seeds. I was actually searching for a cure for my father’s Alzheimers. Since then we have made the seeds part of our diet. My 25 year-old son was diagnosed with testicular cancer in June of this year. I believe our God put your research in my path last year in preparation.

There’s a sucker born every minute
There’s a sucker born every minute
That phrase usually is attributed to P.T. Barnum. Actually, there is no proof of its origin, but it was a sentiment that was widely shared by crooked gamblers and con artists of the 19th Century. In fact, it still is, particularly among modern day politicians.
This fact is clearly illustrated by the following stories in this week’s edition relating to the near hysteria being created by politicians and media pundits over the threat of mosquitoes infecting humans with the Zika virus. We have published the facts in this deception in previous issues of Need to Know news so, if you are not aware of the colossal fraud and deception being perpetrated on the public, please take a few minutes to check out these previous stories:
Investigative reporter, John Rappoport, makes a strong case …
The World Health Organization has declared …
A report from Physicians in Crop-Sprayed Towns …
James Corbett presents more evidence …
The most important thing to understand in this issue is that there is no credible evidence that the Zika virus is the cause of the birth defects attributed to it by the media. However, there is a huge fortune to be made in tax-funding projects to bio-engineer new strains of mosquitoes, to conduct massive spraying programs, to develop new vaccines, to pass new laws to regulate human activity, and to launch so-called public-awareness programs to sensitize us to the danger. And that doesn’t include the payola that flows into the pockets of politicians and public-health officials who cooperate with the profitable scam.
Think for a moment about previous health scares over the Bird Flu, the Swine Flu, and the Ebola virus – none of which had scientific validity but which handsomely benefitted the scaremongers. And now, here we go again with Zika. Unfortunately, P.T. Barnum may have been right.

Florida: The FDA announced Friday that Oxitec’s GMO mosquitoes will not harm the environment despite the fact that no one knows what will happen when the mosquitoes are released into the wild. This announcement coincides with FDA approval of introducing genetically modified mosquitoes in the Florida Keys that, theoretically, will reduce the insects’ population. This is being orchestrated with media hype of the unproven theory that the Zika virus is the cause of birth defects. USA Today 2016 Aug 5 (Story) (Cached)
Clovis, California: MosquitoMate has obtained approval from the EPA to release male mosquitoes into the environment that are infected in the lab with Wolbachia bacteria. The object is to have them mate with local female mosquitoes to produce eggs that will not hatch due to the bacteria’s effects, thereby reducing the mosquito population. 40,000 infected males are to be released per week in Clovis for ten weeks. Scientists aren’t sure what Wolbachia does inside insect cells, and it is unlikely that they have considered how this experiment will affect the biological balance of nature or animal and human health. Wired 2016 Aug 5 (Story) (Cached)
Florida is spraying an insecticide over a 10-mile area in Miami to control mosquitoes carrying the Zika virus. This is despite the fact that no mosquitoes yet have been found carrying the virus. The CDC issued a travel warning for pregnant women to avoid the area. This warning presumably is to minimize the chances for birth defects from the Zika virus. It is ironic, however, that exposure to the insecticide being used, called Naled, can cause the offspring of pregnant animals to be born with 15% smaller brains and have an increase in aggressiveness and memory deterioration. Naled also has caused pancreatic cancer and leukemia in lab tests. Daily Sheeple 2016 Aug 3 (Story) (Cached)
Florida: CNN reports that four people have been infected with the Zika virus by local mosquitoes. These are the first known cases of the virus being transmitted by mosquitoes in the continental US, although there is no hard evidence that the insects really cause the diseases. No infected insects have been found. Nevertheless, local, state and federal health officials are going door-to-door to ask residents for urine samples. HNN Plan posted 2016 Jul 30 (Story)

Mohammad El Halabi, World Vision’s manager of operations in Gaza, has been arrested, and an Israeli security official says that Halabi confessed to siphoning off $7.2 million a year, about 60% of the World Vision’s Gaza funding, to pay Hamas expenses.

Louisiana’s state legislature unanimously passed a law requiring police to obtain court orders before using a stingray device.

“That’s nice of her to take such an interest, dear. What did she say when you told her you are the only child?”
She just said, “Thank goodness!”

A man was looking for a place to sit in a crowded university library. He asked a girl: “Do you mind if I sit beside you?” The girl replied, in a loud voice “NO, I DON’T WANT TO SPEND THE NIGHT WITH YOU!”
All the people in the library stared at the man who was deeply embarrassed and moved to another table. After a couple of minutes, the girl walked quietly to the man’s table and said with a laugh: “I study psychology, and I know what a man is thinking; I bet you felt embarrassed, right?” The man responded in a loud voice: “$500 FOR ONE NIGHT? AT THAT PRICE, I AM NOT INTERESTED!”

THE BRIGHT SIDE OF REALISM
posted 2016 Aug 6 from Bill Madden
My mood brightens (optimism) when I read Henry’s realistic assessment of how bad things really are (pessimism) in our once-great country. To fix a problem, you must first realize that there is a problem. Next, it is important to define the problem so that suitable remedies might be considered.
Financially, our country is bankrupt and, believe it or not, we the people are responsible for all of the debts and unfunded liabilities. I guess that’s why we have Social Security numbers so that all of our bank and investment accounts are available for government confiscation. Please Google “IRA Confiscation” and learn that it is being discussed.
We used to export our energy, we had a world-class manufacturing base, we were a creditor nation, our immigrants became Americans, debt was used sparingly, we never paid humans not to work and our money was real, not fiat. Now, the opposite is true and most of us don’t even realize it.

APRICOT SEEDS NOW PART OF DIET
posted 2016 Aug 5 from Ruben Guerrero
Hello Mr. Griffin, I want to thank you for all the research you have done with the writing of your “World Without Cancer”. It was last year around September when I ran into a Youtube video where you spoke about the apricot seeds. I was actually searching for a cure for my father’s Alzheimers. Since then we have made the seeds part of our diet. My 25 year-old son was diagnosed with testicular cancer in June of this year. I believe our God put your research in my path last year in preparation.

More Deadly than Terrorism?
More Deadly than Terrorism?
Two weeks ago, we noted that the chances of a person being killed by terrorism are 1 in 93,000,000. That means we are sixteen times more likely to be struck by lightning. However, because terror events are so horrendous and because our mind-controlling politicians and mainstream media continuously sensitize us to these horrors, the public has become fixated on terrorism, and the political environment of the entire world is being radically altered by it.
We, ourselves, find it difficult not to play this game because we have an obligation to report all the news that affects our lives and liberty, even if it contains large amounts of opinion engineering.
This week will be different, because there is an important story that confirms one of the primary claims made by those of us who are convinced that chemtrails are, not merely the presence of condensed and frozen water vapor from jet engines, but also contain toxic chemicals that are destroying many forms of plant life and causing an epidemic of bizarre illnesses among wildlife, farm animals, and humans.
When the increase in disease and the actual loss of life is considered, it is certain that destruction, suffering, and death from this source far exceeds the miniscule losses from terrorism. Yet, political leaders and mainstream media, not only are silent on this threat, but constantly are telling us that the threat doesn’t even exist. They insist that it’s merely a figment of imagination in the minds of conspiracy theorists.
For that reason, this week we are devoting our commentary section, not to the deeds of terrorism, but the deeds of geoengineers who want to spray us like insects supposedly to change the climate and reduce so-called global warming. If there is anyone still left on this poisoned planet a hundred years from now to write the history of our day, they will marvel at how docile and uninterested most people are today in what is being sprayed in our skies. Perhaps this report from Switzerland will arouse their curiosity.
___________________________
Overcast is the title of a new documentary about chemtrails that includes an interview with Ulrike Lohman, a professor of atmospheric physics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. Professor Lohman recently completed a study of the composition of the exhaust from commercial jet aircraft. It was already known that jet exhaust contains soot, but the researchers also tested for other substances and found 16 different metals, including aluminum and barium. The metals were traced to a lubricant oil, but aluminum also can come from the turbines themselves. The jet fuel also contained small amounts of aluminum and barium, which is a significant finding because, according to the film, scientists previously had said it was impossible to have aluminum and barium in the fuel. Overcast The Movie YouTube posted 2016 Jul 29 (Story)
The filmmakers of Overcast recorded twelve planes within the span of 40 minutes to obtain a list of who was spraying the sky. The video confirms what we have said in the past, that most of these planes are commercial flights, not spray tankers. The planes that created a grid of trails and clouds that spread throughout the sky instead of dissipating were all commercial Airbus passenger craft except one, which was a Boeing.

US: James Comey, head of the FBI, said that threats against the US will continue to increase and he predicts a terrorist diaspora out of Syria “like we have never seen before.” Then he made the Orwellian statement (reminiscent of “War is peace”) that battlefield success against ISIS will result in more terror in the West.

A Chinese billionaire, Ng Lap Seng, is being called before Congress to explain his role in an influence-buying scheme in 1996. He is accused of funneling $1.2 million to Bill Clinton’s reelection campaign through an Arkansas restaurant owner who laundered the money through the DNC and Clinton’s legal-defense fund. [We reported last month that John Ashe, the former president of the UN general assembly who was accused of accepting bribes from Ng, was prevented from testifying when he was ‘accidentally’ killed by a barbell weight that crushed his throat.] DailyMail 2016 Jul 28 (Story) (Cached)
Mike Cernovich, a lawyer and citizen journalist, attended the RNC and reports that there were about 120 anti-Trump protesters there. He also attended the DNC and estimated that there were 5,000 protesters, mostly Bernie Sanders supporters, who were very upset with how the DNC shut him out. He caught the media engaging in outrageously biased reporting, and this video is filled with examples. Well worth watching. Stefan Molyneux 2016 Jul 28 (Story)

The Philippines has become a nation without judges after the newly-elected president, Rodrigo Duterte, announced open season on drug dealers and drug users. His war on drugs has resulted in the street killing by police of nearly 300 people in July. These are summary executions without the benefit of a full and fair trial. The President also urged citizens to kill drug dealers and users. An estimated 60,000 drug users and some dealers have surrendered themselves to the government. DailyMail 2016 Jul 27 (Story) (Cached)

Baltimore, Maryland: Charges were dropped against the remaining three police officers involved in the death of Freddie Gray, an unarmed black man whose neck was broken while he was handcuffed during a rough ride in the back of a police van in April 2015. Prosecutors dropped the charges after a judge acquitted three of the six officers charged in the case, including the van driver who the state considered the most responsible. Three of the officers who were charged are white and three are black. Fox News 2016 Jul 27 (Story) (Cached)
Reutlingen, Germany: Officials have not yet released the full name of a 21-year old Syrian asylum seeker who reportedly killed a pregnant 45-year old Polish woman with a machete and injured another woman and a man. Officials say the attack was not an act of terror but of jealous passion after being rejected by the woman. The first seven seconds of the first video show the machete on the ground. Some of the view is obstructed by the foot of a policeman, but the fact that what can be seen of the weapon is without a spot of blood after hacking three people has raised questions about the integrity of the official story. In this photo and video coverage of the incident, there is no evidence of the dead woman or the other victims. DailyMail 2016 Jul 27 (Story) (Cached)

Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, France: During a Mass in a Catholic church, two ISIS terrorists attacked and killed a priest by slitting his throat. One of the attackers, 19-year old Adel Kermiche, who was under judicial supervision for trying to join extremists in Syria, wore an electronic bracelet to monitor his location. Curiously, the bracelet was deactivated for a few hours every morning under court orders. The attack occurred in the morning, of course. Both terrorists were killed by anti-terror police as they ran outside the sanctuary shouting “Allahu Akbar!” Another curiosity is that the terrorists carried fake explosives. Fox News 2016 Jul 26 (Story) (Cached)
Fansbach, Germany: A 27-year old immigrant from Syria, Mohammad Daleel, was prevented from entering an outdoor concert and then blew himself up with a suicide backpack containing a homemade bomb. Fifteen people were injured in the explosion. Daleel left a video stating that his attack was as an act of revenge against Germans, because they obstruct Islam. CNN 2016 Jul 26 (Story) (Cached)
Former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney is referencing a video that examines the amazing fact that the same man captured a video of the truck rampage in Nice on July 14 and ALSO the shooting attack at McDonalds in Munich on July 22. That man is Richard Gutjahr, a German photographer and journalist. What are the odds that he would be pre-positioned for both events? There is nothing controversial about this part of the story, because Gutjahr’s credit is clearly attached to the release of the videos to mainstream media. The controversial part, however, is that he is married to Einat Wilf, who is believed to be an asset of the Israeli Mossad. Based on that fact, the producer of this video concludes: “It’s 100 percent clear that Israel’s fingerprints are all over these events.” [The fact that Gutjahr was perfectly positioned to capture video of these two attacks is extremely unlikely without prior knowledge, but we do not agree that Einat Wilf’s connection to the Mossad is conclusive proof that such prior knowledge came from that source.] The Hill 2016 Jul 24 (Story) (Cached)
Wikipedia scrubbed the information about Richard Gutjahr’s wife, Einat Wilf, a Mossad asset who worked in Unit 8200, which is a spy agency specializing in cyber espionage.

Munich: Thamina Stoll is the daughter of the man who video recorded the truck attack in Nice AND the shooting in Munich a few days later. Thamina was in Munich with her father at the time of the shooting and took some video of the crowd reaction. If all that isn’t the coincidence of the century, now we discover on Thamina’s website a photograph of her with Hillary Clinton. What does this mean? Perhaps only that Thamina is a Hillary fan, but the coincidences are bizarre, if nothing else. New Nationalist posted 2016 Jul 24 (Story) (Cached)
Munich, Germany: A German Iranian 18-year old boy, Ali David Sonboly, killed nine people in a shooting attack at a McDonald’s restaurant. He is said to be a right-wing fanatic and shouted “Allahu Akbar” while shooting children. Sonboly was killed following a massive police manhunt. Initial reports said that there were three shooters, but that fact now is ignored. A second shooting event, several miles away at the Marienplatz metro station was also reported (and quickly dropped from the news), which led to the arrest of three men. Heavy posted 2016 Jul 24 (Story) (Cached)
After WWII, the German Constitution was revised to forbid the military to be used domestically, except in cases of national security.

French anti-terror police are calling for the destruction of all surveillance camera images of the truck massacre on July 14th that were recorded on Nice’s massive security video system. No reason was given for this destruction of evidence that, under most circumstances, would be a serious crime in itself. However, Le Figaro newspaper speculated that police may be concerned that the images might be used for jihadi propaganda. [Skeptics, like us, suspect that the real reason is that the images might introduce important facts that are not found in the official story.] CBS News posted 2016 Jul 23 (Story) (Cached)

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.
Philadelphia: Black Lives Matter protesters at the DNC chanted, “Don’t vote for Hillary, she’s killing black people.” This is an unexpected turn of events in view of the fact that BLM has been generously funded by George Soros who is a big supporter of Hillary Clinton. [One possible explanation is that the anti-Hillary demonstrators shown in these videos appear to be more Bernie Saunders supporters than BLM supporters. It may be that BLM simply joined with Bernie supporters for this demonstration.] InfoWars 2016 Jul 26 (Story)
France: Following the ISIS murder of a Catholic priest today, politicians and media are heavily promoting the idea that “France is like Israel, a state under permanent threat” because it is at war. French President Hollande, with the full cooperation of the press, is using recent terror attacks to justify the expansion of a domestic police state. This TV analyst explains the strategy.

Clinton Cash, a new documentary based on the book by Peter Schweizer, can be viewed online with this link.

DIVIDE AND CONQUER
2016 Jul 8 from David Clumper
“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
Sun Tzu
“Pit race against race, religion against religion, prejudice against prejudice. Divide and conquer! We must not let that happen here.” Eleanor Roosevelt
This ‘Divide and Conquer Strategy’ is as old as the Bible; Also the favorite ploy of the NeoCons and Globalists such as Kissinger, Soros, Brzezinski and IMF head, Christine Lagarde. Lagarde often spouts numerology to back up some of her beliefs such as the “magic numbers 7, 11, 40, etc” The Bible does support this concept to a degree, but I fear most of these Globalists are getting their info from ‘The other side’.
Interestingly, 11 cops were shot, and it’s 11 days from the time of the shooting ’til the start of the Republican Convention ~ A very good chance this is the commencement of escalating violence between now and July 18th. This may make the 1968 Democratic Convention riots look like ‘Happy Days’.

IS THE DOLLAR NOT MONEY?
2016 Jul 6 from David Caron
Excellent description of our fraudulent financial system . However I “CRINGED” every time you called the dollar “MONEY”! BIG MISTAKE!!!
MONEY VS CURRENCY
Money is UNENCUMBERED, Currency is not. Currency is not MONEY! However MONEY can be used as currency. All currencies ever created have always reached their intrinsic value of $0. There are some newly created currencies that are still in use but they ALL have lost most of their value in just a few decades. Take the US Dollar for example (which is not MONEY); it has lost over 90% of its value in just 100 years!!!
Currency is not MONEY but Gold and Silver are MONEY, have been for 6,000 years. In all that time they have held their relative value! MONEY IS FOR PRESERVING YOUR WEALTH, CURRENCY IS FOR SPENDING IT! GOLD AND SILVER ARE “MONEY” EVERYTHING ELSE IS JUST CURRENCY!
REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello David. Thanks for your message. Regarding the word “money”, I use that word in its basic dictionary sense that money is anything used as a medium of exchange. That can be national currencies, gold, silver, Bitcoin, or anything else that is widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
That does not mean that all forms of money are of equal merit. There is good money and bad money. Like you, I am a believer that gold and silver are at the top of the list for good money. Nevertheless, Federal Reserve Notes and other fiat currencies ARE money, whether we like it or not, or whether we think they should be or not, because they are widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
If we attempt to promote the superiority of gold and silver by claiming that dollars are currency but not money, we not only make a factual error, but we create a serious barrier to communication with most people who understand at a gut level that dollars are, indeed, the de facto money of most of the world. We can try to make them say the word ‘currency’, instead, but they know it as money.
If you are interested in my analysis of this topic, you will find it in my book, The Creature from Jekyll Island; A Second Look at The Federal Reserve, in a section called A CRASH COURSE ON MONEY, which spans chapters 7 through 10.
Thanks for writing – and for being a champion of sound money.

Titanic; A Perfect Crime
This novel explores little known facts of that famous tragedy and provides jaw-dropping insights to new discoveries that came with the finding of the 100-year-old ship wreck. The book’s scenario of what really happened that fateful night is amazingly consistent with the historical record. No other theory explains so many parts of the mystery. (More)

Rev-up and stand-down
Rev-up and stand-down
For the past few weeks, this commentary section has focused on acts of terrorism and race-based violence that are occurring in the streets of the US and Europe. I wish we could turn to less gruesome news but, in my view, there is nothing more important to the future of personal freedom in the world than these events.
Details of the attacks continue to fill the news channels: the names of attackers, their origin, what weapons they used, how many were killed or wounded, are they part of an organized group?, and so forth. As important as these facts may be, there are other facts that may be even more important that are seldom featured in major news channels.
There is no better example than the fact that, in almost every case of terrorism and organized race-based violence, there is strong evidence that the attackers were recruited, radicalized, trained, funded, and protected by covert agencies of the governments that become the scenes of violence. Not only that, after the radicalized groups and dupes are pushed into suicide missions, it is amazingly common to discover that military and law-enforcement personnel are given orders to stand down for as long as possible, which allows the radicalized cannon fodder to create an amazing amount of carnage considering their small numbers.
Once this recurring pattern of rev-up and stand down is recognized, it becomes apparent that there are forces that actually want to see wanton acts of violence and killing as a catalyst to creating public demand for a police state, supposedly as the only solution to the problem they, themselves, created.
If you know what to look for, you will find this pattern within the following stories from this week’s news.

Larry Klayman, founder of Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, has filed a class-action law suit on behalf of law enforcement. Defendants in the suit are Obama, former US Attorney General Eric Holder, civil rights activist Al Sharpton, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, Black Lives Matter (BLM) founder DeRay McKesson, and other BLM leaders who are accused of using anti-police rhetoric to incite violence.

Georges Dallemagne, a member of the Belgian parliament, reported that, on November 13, 2015, the night of three coordinated terror attacks in Paris, six French military personnel of the Sentinelle Project were at the entry of the concert hall where 89 people were killed but did nothing to interfere. In this French video interview, he says the soldiers were told to follow rules of engagement that did not allow them to take action unless they, themselves, were attacked. This story has been ignored by Western media. Free Thought Project 2016 Jul 21 (Story) (Cached)
Evidence indicates that the US was involved in the recent failed coup in Turkey, resulting in serious consequences as leaders now battle for power. This article summarizes the multiple facets of the coup, the players and their motives, including information about Fethullah Gulen who lives in the US and receives $500 million annually from US taxpayers for his charter schools, which teach radical Islam.

A Syrian rebel group, once described as ‘moderate’ by the US State Department, filmed the beheading of an 11-year old boy who they suspected of spying. The gruesome video has circulated widely on social media. As many as 1,000 of these so-called moderate Zenki combatants were still receiving US aid in December 2014, and were using weapons from the CIA in 2015. Common Dreams 2016 Jul 21 (Story) (Cached)
The US government released the long awaited, heavily-redacted, 28-page report that shows the close connection between some of the 9/11 hijackers and the Saudi government. The report says that the White House inhibited law enforcement from investigating this connection and that Saudi officials were allowed to leave the US right after 9/11 so they could not be detained or questioned. Saudi Arabia currently is funding 20% to 40% of Hillary Clinton’s campaign for president. There is much more in this report that will make your blood boil. InfoWars 2016 Jul 18 (Story)
The US government says that, even though an older document implicates Saudi Arabia in the 9/11 attack, subsequent investigations found no such links. The Saudi government says it has been exonerated. [It remains to be seen who in Washington politics or mainstream media will have the honesty to point out that the reason no such links were found in subsequent investigations is that there were no subsequent investigations. They were blocked by the White House.] PBS News posted 2016 Jul 18 (Story)
French President Francois Hollande announced that the state of emergency that was to expire in two weeks will be extended for another three months following the Bastille Day attacks in Nice.

Long, a black man from Missouri, was a former Marine. He reportedly followed several conspiracy groups, including a group called Freedom from Covert Harassment and Surveillance, whose mission is to help those who claim to be abused by remote brain experimentation and remote neural monitoring.

Nice, France: New details have emerged in the truck-rampage murders by Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel last week that killed 84 people. Seven people have been arrested in connection with the attack, including an Albanian couple who are suspected of aiding him. Another man received a text message from Bouhlel telling him to bring five more weapons to ‘C’. Mainstream media says ISIS described Bouhlel as one of its soldiers. Bouhlel fired a handgun at police before they shot him but, curiously, other weapons in the truck turned out to be fakes or replicas. Bouhlel sent $110,000 in cash to his family in Tunisia days before the attack. [That’s a lot of money for a delivery truck driver.] Telegraph 2016 Jul 17 (Story) (Cached)

ANALYSIS
ANALYSIS
News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.
Donald Trump was able to influence some surprising changes in the GOP platform. These include (1) eliminating the call for sending weapons to Ukraine to be used against Russia and pro-Russian forces, and (2) calling for revival of the Glass-Steagall Act. Dropping the call for weaponizing Ukraine against Russia is a blow against the military industrial complex, which anticipates expanded profits from a cold or hot war with Russia. Restoring Glass-Steagall would be a blow against the banks who, once again, would be prevented from using depositors’ money to engage in speculative investments. Infowars 2016 Jul 21 (Cached)

DIVIDE AND CONQUER
2016 Jul 8 from David Clumper
“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
Sun Tzu
“Pit race against race, religion against religion, prejudice against prejudice. Divide and conquer! We must not let that happen here.” Eleanor Roosevelt
This ‘Divide and Conquer Strategy’ is as old as the Bible; Also the favorite ploy of the NeoCons and Globalists such as Kissinger, Soros, Brzezinski and IMF head, Christine Lagarde. Lagarde often spouts numerology to back up some of her beliefs such as the “magic numbers 7, 11, 40, etc” The Bible does support this concept to a degree, but I fear most of these Globalists are getting their info from ‘The other side’.
Interestingly, 11 cops were shot, and it’s 11 days from the time of the shooting ’til the start of the Republican Convention ~ A very good chance this is the commencement of escalating violence between now and July 18th. This may make the 1968 Democratic Convention riots look like ‘Happy Days’.

IS THE DOLLAR NOT MONEY?
2016 Jul 6 from David Caron
Excellent description of our fraudulent financial system . However I “CRINGED” every time you called the dollar “MONEY”! BIG MISTAKE!!!
MONEY VS CURRENCY
Money is UNENCUMBERED, Currency is not. Currency is not MONEY! However MONEY can be used as currency. All currencies ever created have always reached their intrinsic value of $0. There are some newly created currencies that are still in use but they ALL have lost most of their value in just a few decades. Take the US Dollar for example (which is not MONEY); it has lost over 90% of its value in just 100 years!!!
Currency is not MONEY but Gold and Silver are MONEY, have been for 6,000 years. In all that time they have held their relative value! MONEY IS FOR PRESERVING YOUR WEALTH, CURRENCY IS FOR SPENDING IT! GOLD AND SILVER ARE “MONEY” EVERYTHING ELSE IS JUST CURRENCY!
REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello David. Thanks for your message. Regarding the word “money”, I use that word in its basic dictionary sense that money is anything used as a medium of exchange. That can be national currencies, gold, silver, Bitcoin, or anything else that is widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
That does not mean that all forms of money are of equal merit. There is good money and bad money. Like you, I am a believer that gold and silver are at the top of the list for good money. Nevertheless, Federal Reserve Notes and other fiat currencies ARE money, whether we like it or not, or whether we think they should be or not, because they are widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
If we attempt to promote the superiority of gold and silver by claiming that dollars are currency but not money, we not only make a factual error, but we create a serious barrier to communication with most people who understand at a gut level that dollars are, indeed, the de facto money of most of the world. We can try to make them say the word ‘currency’, instead, but they know it as money.
If you are interested in my analysis of this topic, you will find it in my book, The Creature from Jekyll Island; A Second Look at The Federal Reserve, in a section called A CRASH COURSE ON MONEY, which spans chapters 7 through 10.
Thanks for writing – and for being a champion of sound money.

Is it war or theater?
Is it war or theater?
This week’s collection of horror stories about a mass killing in France and the rise of organized sniper attacks on police and civilians in the US has brought to mind the word ‘theater’.
In the classical sense, a theater of war is defined as a geographical area of land, sea, and airspace that is directly involved in war operations. In the Orwellian sense, however, the word, theater, takes on the meaning of something that is fictional and is designed to create a psychological impact on those who observe.
There can be little doubt that this second view is the correct one in terms of current events. If the carnage we are seeing were the result of a real war, the leaders of the governments under attack would be in full action to overcome the threat and destroy the enemy. They would seek out the known leaders of these violent groups (and the known financiers behind them) and put them permanently out of business. Instead, they tolerate, coddle, and even assist these people to carry out their plans.
If this were a real war, the leaders of the EU would not allow millions of so-called migrants into their borders and then protect them from prosecution for their crimes. If this were a real war, American leaders long ago would have locked up the violent organizers of militant groups like Black Lives Matter and also people like George Soros who fund them.
But it’s not a real war. It’s theater. Its purpose is to create sufficient carnage to frighten the majority into passive acceptance of a police state as the inevitable outcome.
It’s not a pretty picture, but … we need to know.

China’s middle class experienced a 70% growth of income between 1988 and 2008, known as the ‘Asian Miracle’. During this same period, the middle class in the US and in other developed countries experienced no growth at all or, in some cases, negative growth. This is partly because the Chinese standard of living still has a long way to go to catch up with developed countries, but it also is a result of Globalist trade treaties that have given China a trade advantage in recent years.

Ron Paul and Daniel McAdams discuss the attack in Nice, France, and conclude that it likely was not an act of terrorism but of mass murder without political or religious motivation.

James Corbett and Spiro Skouras show that the US government has been deeply interested in geoengineering (also known as chemtrails and stratospheric aerosols) for many years.

Hello Tech Support. Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slowdown in overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0. In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5, and then installed undesirable programs such as: NBA 5.0, NFL 3.0 and Golf Clubs 4.1.
Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and House Cleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. Please note that I have tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail. What can I do? Signed, Desperate.
Hello Desperate. First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while Husband 1.0 is an operating system. Please enter command: I thought you loved me.html and try to download Tears 6.2. Do not forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update. If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.
However, remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0, or Beer 6.1. Please note that Beer 6.1 is a very bad program that will download the Farting and Snoring Loudly Beta version. Whatever you do, DO NOT, under any circumstances, install Mother-In-Law 1.0 as it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources.
In addition, please do not attempt to re-install the Boyfriend 5.0 program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0.
In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend Cooking 3.0. Good Luck!

DIVIDE AND CONQUER
2016 Jul 8 from David Clumper
“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
Sun Tzu
“Pit race against race, religion against religion, prejudice against prejudice. Divide and conquer! We must not let that happen here.” Eleanor Roosevelt
This ‘Divide and Conquer Strategy’ is as old as the Bible; Also the favorite ploy of the NeoCons and Globalists such as Kissinger, Soros, Brzezinski and IMF head, Christine Lagarde. Lagarde often spouts numerology to back up some of her beliefs such as the “magic numbers 7, 11, 40, etc” The Bible does support this concept to a degree, but I fear most of these Globalists are getting their info from ‘The other side’.
Interestingly, 11 cops were shot, and it’s 11 days from the time of the shooting ’til the start of the Republican Convention ~ A very good chance this is the commencement of escalating violence between now and July 18th. This may make the 1968 Democratic Convention riots look like ‘Happy Days’.

IS THE DOLLAR NOT MONEY?
2016 Jul 6 from David Caron
Excellent description of our fraudulent financial system . However I “CRINGED” every time you called the dollar “MONEY”! BIG MISTAKE!!!
MONEY VS CURRENCY
Money is UNENCUMBERED, Currency is not. Currency is not MONEY! However MONEY can be used as currency. All currencies ever created have always reached their intrinsic value of $0. There are some newly created currencies that are still in use but they ALL have lost most of their value in just a few decades. Take the US Dollar for example (which is not MONEY); it has lost over 90% of its value in just 100 years!!!
Currency is not MONEY but Gold and Silver are MONEY, have been for 6,000 years. In all that time they have held their relative value! MONEY IS FOR PRESERVING YOUR WEALTH, CURRENCY IS FOR SPENDING IT! GOLD AND SILVER ARE “MONEY” EVERYTHING ELSE IS JUST CURRENCY!
REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello David. Thanks for your message. Regarding the word “money”, I use that word in its basic dictionary sense that money is anything used as a medium of exchange. That can be national currencies, gold, silver, Bitcoin, or anything else that is widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
That does not mean that all forms of money are of equal merit. There is good money and bad money. Like you, I am a believer that gold and silver are at the top of the list for good money. Nevertheless, Federal Reserve Notes and other fiat currencies ARE money, whether we like it or not, or whether we think they should be or not, because they are widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
If we attempt to promote the superiority of gold and silver by claiming that dollars are currency but not money, we not only make a factual error, but we create a serious barrier to communication with most people who understand at a gut level that dollars are, indeed, the de facto money of most of the world. We can try to make them say the word ‘currency’, instead, but they know it as money.
If you are interested in my analysis of this topic, you will find it in my book, The Creature from Jekyll Island; A Second Look at The Federal Reserve, in a section called A CRASH COURSE ON MONEY, which spans chapters 7 through 10.
Thanks for writing – and for being a champion of sound money.

Operation Gladio in America?
Operation Gladio in America?
Operation Gladio is the code name for a secret underground army, directed by NATO, that operated throughout Europe from the end of World War II through 1996. Its purpose was to thwart the expansion of the Soviet Union.
Gladio became noted for recruiting and financing right-wing extremist groups that could be directed to commit acts of violence and terrorism against their own governments and citizens, thereby creating public anger against anyone who opposed the existing regimes.
In 1996, the CIA expanded its policy of using right-wing extremist groups for this purpose and began using Islamic extremist organizations. This was called Gladio-B and became the force that has destabilized and overturned countries in the Middle East since then.
A good introduction to this history is Gladio B: The Origins of NATO’s Secret Islamic Terrorist Proxies. Even Wikipedia has a fairly unfiltered version of this dark record.
The news of an organized attack against police in Dallas this week is shocking in itself but, when you realize that almost everything about it fits the Gladio template, it is jaw dropping. All one has to do is change the description of groups being recruited from Islamic to Black, and everything else is in place.
Is the same strategy for national destabilization and the creation of hatred and violence now being used against the American people?
The following three news stories and two commentaries will help to answer that question.
___________________________
An ambush sniper attack at a Black Lives Matter protest in Dallas, Texas, left five police officers dead. According to the police chief, the suspect said he was upset about the recent police shootings of two black men and he wanted to kill white people, especially cops. The suspect finally was killed by a robot bomb. Three other people have been taken into custody at the time of this report that states there were multiple shooters working together with rifles at elevated positions. Reuters 2016 Jul 8 (Story) (Cached)
This video contradicts the previous story by claiming the Dallas shooting was a lone-wolf attack by Micah Xavier Johnson, a former soldier with the US Army. [Changing stories to make the final version conform to the theory of a precision attack by a lone nut, rather than an organized group, has become the hallmark of such horror shows in the US. We believe this is because a lone-nut theory can be used to sell the idea of gun control as a prevention against future shootings. Organized groups are not as useful for that purpose, and they invite further investigation into who else may have assisted these groups.] ABC News 2016 Jul 8 (Story)
US: A group called The Black Power Political Organization claimed responsibility for the ambush in Dallas and put out a call for others to join them in sniper assassination attacks worldwide. The Facebook posting was later removed. ZeroHedge 2016 Jul 8 (Story) (Cached)
Alex Jones sees the killing of police in Dallas as part of a long-term strategy by the globalists to destabilize America. The strategy calls for using police brutality as an excuse to federalize American police departments that will be overseen by the United Nations. To make this happen, Obama and George Soros are promoting violent groups, such as Black Lives Matter, with the goal of bringing race war to the nation. It is a similar strategy used by Soros when he funded uprisings in Ukraine and the Middle East that destabilized existing governments and replaced them with puppet, totalitarian regimes. InfoWars 2016 Jul 8 (Story)
James Corbett compares the Dallas shooting to the 2014 Maidan sniper attack on protesters in Ukraine. Later, it came to light that the snipers were from an anti-Russian group linked to NATO. Meanwhile, the media hyped the story that the snipers were Ukrainian nationalists. Based on this and other similar plots, the ambush in Dallas looks very much like a false-flag attack to destabilize America through a racial civil war. It is identical to NATO’s Gladio-B model to create chaos and blow things up and then blame the action on political enemies. Corbett Report 2016 Jul 8 (Story)

US: There is a media blackout on an angry speech by Russian President Putin delivered to representatives of Western media firms. He warned that the US and Europe are escalating tensions that, if continued, will end in nuclear war. He criticized Western media for remaining silent about NATO putting missiles on Russia’s borders, the overthrow of Ukraine by the West, the West funding of radical Islam, and the destabilization of the Middle East. [Putin is not our hero. In fact, the Russian press is just as committed to support Russia’s ruling elite as the Western media is committed to support its own.

UK: In response to the Chilcot Report on the political deception that led to the Iraq War, Jeremy Corbyn, the current leader of UK’s Labour Party, apologized to the citizens of Iraq, the British soldiers who fought and died in Iraq, and the British people who were betrayed. He then pledged to follow international law in the future and to respect the authority of the United Nations. [What he failed to mention is that the War in Iraq was in accordance with international law and did, indeed, respect the authority of the UN, even though it was primarily a US/UK mission. He did not suggest punishment for those who committed this crime, which would include former Prime Minister Tony Blair from his own Labour Party. His message was: now that we have said how sorry we are, you can trust us as before.] ODN 2016 Jul 6 (Story)

Italy: Prime Minister Matteo Renzi says Deutsche Bank is the real cause of the “derivative problem” facing Europe. Deutsche Bank has bet $75 trillion on derivatives, which is 20 times higher than Germany’s GDP, and is nearly the same amount as the entire GWP (global world production). Renzi says that bad-loan problems in Italian banks are minuscule compared to the derivatives problems, which are one-hundred times greater. Public anger will rise as more European banks fail, and all manner of bail-ins and bail-outs come into play. ZeroHedge 2016 Jul 6 (Story) (Cached)
Italy’s banks are failing caused by billions in bad loans. Share prices have fallen by 33%. Italy accounts for about one-third of the Eurozone’s total debt. According to EU rules, banks must first do a ‘bail-in’ and take money from depositors, bondholders, and shareholders before a taxpayer-funded public ‘bail-out’ is allowed. However, this rule is politically unpopular, and the European Commission granted Italy permission to proceed directly with a $150-billion taxpayer-funded bail-out.

Ron Paul and Daniel McAdams analyze Britain’s Chilcot Report, a seven-year investigation of the Iraq War. The most significant aspect of this report is that it documents the lies that were used to justify it, including the fictional threat of weapons of mass destruction.

Israel’s military intelligence chief, Major General Herzi Halevy, says that Israel does not want to see ISIS defeated. He further suggested that the Israeli military will actually support ISIS as a matter of policy.

Need to Know is as serious as it gets, but laughter is good for the soul and helps to keep our equilibrium amid the chaos. So, here are quips, gags, and images to put a smile on your face. If you have some you would like to share, please send them here.
The Pope and Hillary are on the same stage in Yankee Stadium in front of a huge crowd. The Pope leans towards Hillary and says, “Do you know that with one little wave of my hand I can make every person in this crowd go wild with joy? This joy will not be a momentary display, but will go deep into their hearts, and they’ll forever speak of this day and rejoice!”
Hillary replied, “I seriously doubt that! With one little wave of your hand?….Show me!”
So the Pope backhanded her and knocked her off the stage! AND THE CROWD ROARED & CHEERED WILDLY, and there was happiness throughout the land!

DIVIDE AND CONQUER
2016 Jul 8 from David Clumper
“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
Sun Tzu
“Pit race against race, religion against religion, prejudice against prejudice. Divide and conquer! We must not let that happen here.” Eleanor Roosevelt
This ‘Divide and Conquer Strategy’ is as old as the Bible; Also the favorite ploy of the NeoCons and Globalists such as Kissinger, Soros, Brzezinski and IMF head, Christine Lagarde. Lagarde often spouts numerology to back up some of her beliefs such as the “magic numbers 7, 11, 40, etc” The Bible does support this concept to a degree, but I fear most of these Globalists are getting their info from ‘The other side’.
Interestingly, 11 cops were shot, and it’s 11 days from the time of the shooting ’til the start of the Republican Convention ~ A very good chance this is the commencement of escalating violence between now and July 18th. This may make the 1968 Democratic Convention riots look like ‘Happy Days’.

IS THE DOLLAR NOT MONEY?
2016 Jul 6 from David Caron
Excellent description of our fraudulent financial system . However I “CRINGED” every time you called the dollar “MONEY”! BIG MISTAKE!!!
MONEY VS CURRENCY
Money is UNENCUMBERED, Currency is not. Currency is not MONEY! However MONEY can be used as currency. All currencies ever created have always reached their intrinsic value of $0. There are some newly created currencies that are still in use but they ALL have lost most of their value in just a few decades. Take the US Dollar for example (which is not MONEY); it has lost over 90% of its value in just 100 years!!!
Currency is not MONEY but Gold and Silver are MONEY, have been for 6,000 years. In all that time they have held their relative value! MONEY IS FOR PRESERVING YOUR WEALTH, CURRENCY IS FOR SPENDING IT! GOLD AND SILVER ARE “MONEY” EVERYTHING ELSE IS JUST CURRENCY!
REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello David. Thanks for your message. Regarding the word “money”, I use that word in its basic dictionary sense that money is anything used as a medium of exchange. That can be national currencies, gold, silver, Bitcoin, or anything else that is widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
That does not mean that all forms of money are of equal merit. There is good money and bad money. Like you, I am a believer that gold and silver are at the top of the list for good money. Nevertheless, Federal Reserve Notes and other fiat currencies ARE money, whether we like it or not, or whether we think they should be or not, because they are widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
If we attempt to promote the superiority of gold and silver by claiming that dollars are currency but not money, we not only make a factual error, but we create a serious barrier to communication with most people who understand at a gut level that dollars are, indeed, the de facto money of most of the world. We can try to make them say the word ‘currency’, instead, but they know it as money.
If you are interested in my analysis of this topic, you will find it in my book, The Creature from Jekyll Island; A Second Look at The Federal Reserve, in a section called A CRASH COURSE ON MONEY, which spans chapters 7 through 10.
Thanks for writing – and for being a champion of sound money.

Titanic; A Perfect Crime
This novel explores little known facts of that famous tragedy and provides jaw-dropping insights to new discoveries that came with the finding of the 100-year-old ship wreck. The book’s scenario of what really happened that fateful night is amazingly consistent with the historical record. No other theory explains so many parts of the mystery. (More)

Hillary Dillary Doc
Hillary Dillary Doc
Hillary Clinton has been in the news a lot this week, and none of it is favorable to her image. It seems that those pesky things called documents keep showing up that deeply implicate her in illegal and reprehensible acts. After thinking about those “docs”, as they are called in the computer world, and seeing how her political friends in high places are fixing things so she will not be punished in spite of the docs, I was compelled to write the following ditty:
Hillary Dillary Doc
The mouse ran up the clock
The clock will not strike
So no need for fright
to Hillary Dillary Doc
Fox News analyst, Judge Janine Pirro, explains why Hillary Clinton will not be indicted for the illegal use of her email server. It boils down to politics and the fact that people in high places, including President Obama, eventually would be exposed as being equally guilty. Fox News 2016 Jul 1 (Story)
The US State Department will not release Hillary Clinton’s emails regarding the Clinton Foundation for 27 months. It is apparent that the executive branch of the federal government is attempting to protect Hillary from adverse publicity long enough to get her firmly implanted as President. Daily Caller 2016 Jun 30 (Story) (Cached)
The new report from the US House Benghazi Committee is a whitewash, as expected. The National Security Council would not allow investigators to review information about possible US action in Libya involving the covert transfer of weapons to Libyan rebels. It is plausible that the desire to cover up this story is what motivated the decision not to defend the embassy. Dead men tell no tales. Politico 2016 Jun 28 (Story) (Cached)
Documents reveal that both the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton’s State Department knew 10 days prior to the Benghazi attack that there was a plan to kill as many Americans as possible at the consulate. The US government also was aware that Libyan weapons were being transferred out of Libya and into Syria. However, investigators did not address these issues in the recent whitewash report. Judicial Watch posted 2016 Jun 28 (Story) (Cached)
New documents prove that Hillary Clinton lied, under penalty of perjury, about risking national security with her home-based server. An email has surfaced from Huma Abedin, Hillary’s former Deputy Chief of Staff, notifying Hillary that she had been hacked and that State Department security features were temporarily disabled to accommodate her private server. Judge Napolitano says the DOJ is unlikely to prosecute, but FBI agents may leak details to the public. Fox News 2016 Jun 27 (Story)

He promised to withdraw the US from the Trans-Pacific Partnership treaty and to either renegotiate the NAFTA treaty or withdraw from it.

GMO opponents are outraged by what they describe as a sellout by ‘controlled opposition’. Companies that market themselves as advocates of non-GMO foods recently joined forces with companies like Monsanto to support a federal bill that forbids states to pass legislation requiring GMO labeling. The sellout companies include Whole Foods Market and Stoneyfield Farm. Food Democracy Now! 2016 Jun 28 (Story) (Cached)
The US Senate will vote on the Monsanto “Dark Act” that would ban states from mandating their own GMO food-safety labels. This would be accomplished by establishing federal standards that supersede state standards. Vermont was slated to begin GMO labeling on July 1, but the Senate is considering a so-called ‘compromise’ bill that would delay labeling for two years. It would require consumers to use a smartphone to access GMO info from a digital code on the product. The law also would allow any food with less than 50% GMO to be labeled as non-GMO.

Wikileaks released an email written by Hillary Clinton saying that the “best way to help Israel deal with Iran’s growing nuclear capability is to help the people of Syria overthrow the regime of Bashar Assad.” This is in spite of the fact that US intelligence agencies have long dismissed the threat of Iran ever building an atom bomb. This email confirms that US policy to overthrow the Syrian government is motivated by a desire to serve the interests of the Israeli government. Hillary has promised that, if she becomes President, she will take the relationship with Israel to the next level, which can only be interpreted as full-scale invasion.

Citizen investigators, analyzing video of the Orlando shooting, have discovered significant contradictions. Eyewitnesses report that the shooter, Omar Mateen, entered the club and began his killing spree around 2:00 AM.

The researchers also note that recordings of the 911 calls are being withheld from the public by the FBI. Last week, DOJ chief, Loretta Lynch, admitted that the agency had altered the content of the calls.

BEST DEMOCRACY MONEY CAN BUY
2016 July 1 from Olo
[On June 29, Monsanto scored a preliminary victory, winning a Senate “test vote” on a bill known as the DARK Act that would deny Americans the right to know about GMOs in their food.]
You think you live in a democracy? It is only “the best democracy money can buy” to quote a brave American called Greg Palast. Here you have senators Roberts (R), who received almost 3 million, and Stabenow (D) who got 1.5 million, who are paid shills for Monsanto, writing a law to deceive Americans who may want to know what they are eating. Check the list of those who voted YES for Monsanto and see the “heroes” who are paid off to do their “duty of deception” to “The People”
Only 3 Republicans and 26 Democrats voted No. The money they got did not buy their conscience. 52 Republicans and 16 Democrats Voted Yes. The biggest “Donation” went to John McCain, 4.5 million. Is this the democracy that the US is “gallantly” trying to impose on other countries?
If GMO is as good as Monsanto & Co. claim why are they so eagerly trying to hide it? The Obamas have their own organic garden in the White House but are they telling the reason they do not eat GMO veggies? No… God forbid stepping on Big Agri toes.

The beginning of the end or end of the beginning?
The beginning of the end or end of the beginning?
Most readers of Need to Know news will rejoice over Britain’s exit from the EU, as reported in this week’s edition. It’s not that we have a stake in Britain’s internal affairs, but because this issue has as much to do with global government as it does with national 
prosperity. In other words, this is a setback for the BIG strategy to put elitist politicians and bankers into control of the entire world – and that affects all of us at the macro level.
It is tempting to give a victory shout and boast that this is the beginning of the end for the globalists, but we know from long experience that they do not give up that easily. Even before the Brexit vote took place, undoubtedly they had prepared Plan-B for just such an outcome.
It is not hard to imagine what such a plan would include. The proven technique for herding the masses into places they would not otherwise choose is to cause them to experience fear and panic. In modern times, this has become an important part of political science in which grotesque enemies are engineered and manufactured with great precision. False-flag attacks are the new normal, and (as illustrated in this week’s news) there even is a talent agency that provides ‘crisis actors’ to corporate and government clients around the world.
Everything is possible – including a return to the EU – if people are in fear for their lives as a result of war, terrorism, economic collapse,
or civil disorder, all of which can be arranged. It is an eerie feeling knowing that there are people in high places, like Maurice Strong, a UN icon for internationalism, who, not only long for the economic destruction of advanced countries, but are in positions to bring it about. It was Strong who said:
What if a small group of these world leaders were to conclude that the principle risk to the earth comes from the actions of the rich countries? … The group decides: Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about? [See The Creature from Jekyll Island, page 533.]
The current victory over the EU is not the beginning of the end, but the end of the beginning of a long and fierce contest between the forces of global tyranny and personal freedom. It is good to rejoice and celebrate, but the next battle is coming, and we must now prepare.

UK: Voters have chosen to exit the EU. It is being described as a stunning, howling victory, fueled by rage and frustration against the EU system of power, wealth, and privilege. Prime Minister David Cameron has resigned and will step down in October. Guardian 2016 Jun 24 (Story) (Cached)
Nigel Farage, head of the UK Independent Part (UKIP) and the chief campaigner for Brexit, gives an emotional victory speech and declares June 23rd as the country’s Independence Day. UK Independent 2016 Jun 24 (Story) (Cached)
Following the Brexit victory, banks and financial institutions are in a tailspin. This is because market speculators were counting heavily on continuing subsidies and intervention on their behalf. The morning after the vote to exit the EU, Britain’s banks were facing a $100-billion drop in market value. World stocks dropped by more than $2-trillion. [None of this is a decline in real asset value, merely a reduction in the size of the inflation bubble.] InfoWars 2016 Jun 24 (Story) (Cached)
Venezuela: Government loyalists and security forces attacked more than a dozen journalists, local and foreign, because President Maduro says news reporting is causing destabilization of the government. Reporters were beaten and had their equipment taken away to keep anti-government protests secret. CNN 2016 Jun 24 (Story)
The US Department of Justice has brought charges against 300 doctors, nurses, physical therapists, and home-care providers, for fraudulently billing Medicare and Medicaid for $900 million. AP 2016 Jun 23 (Story)
The US Supreme Court split 4-4 over President Obama’s immigration plan that would have deferred deportation of about four-million illegal immigrants whose children became US citizens. A split decision means the lower court’s ruling will stand, but it remains to be seen how the government can comply or if it will even try. CBS News 2016 Jun 23 (Story)
The EU is withholding details of the plan for a European Union army until the day after the UK Brexit vote. Only a small group of EU political and security officials are allowed to read the proposal.

US: After four gun-control bills failed in the Senate earlier this week, Democrats staged a 1960’s-style sit-in in the House of Representatives, singing We Shall Overcome, to force a favorable vote. They ended the sit-in after 24 hours because they did not want to spend their two-week summer break on the House floor. They vowed to resume the sit-in when they return. CNN 2016 Jun 23 (Story)
Baltimore: Officer Caesar Goodson, who was driving the transport van in which Freddie Gray sustained fatal injuries, faced charges that included second-degree murder and three counts of manslaughter. He was found ‘not guilty’ by Judge Barry Williams. Goodson became the second officer cleared in the high-profile case. Wochit News 2016 Jun 23 (Story)
Protesters, who want the government to ban pesticides that kill bees, swarmed the EPA building in Washington DC. They presented the agency with 5-million comments against the toxic poisons and also delivered the bodies of 2.6 million dead bees to illustrate their point. AP 2016 Jun 23 (Story)
Oaxaca: Mexican police have been accused of gunning down ten people and injuring 100 more during a peaceful protest over education. The US government is having difficulty explaining why it has close ties with the Mexican military and police who are infamous for brutality and corruption. $2.5 billion in US taxpayer money has been spent over the past four years to arm and train Mexico’s police – and that support is expected to continue. RT 2016 Jun 23 (Story)
US: A federal judge struck down the Obama administration’s rules for hydraulic fracking on public lands that require disclosure of what chemicals are used and also require precautionary measures against leakage. The ruling is a victory for oil and gas producers. Reuters 2016 Jun 22 (Story) (Cached)
US: On Monday morning, when the Department of Justice released transcripts of the phone conversations between the Orlando terrorist and 911 operators, all references to Islam and ISIS had been deleted. It was only after strong backlash from lawmakers and the public, that the DOJ released the unedited version. Fox News 2016 Jun 22 (Story)
Calais, France: A mob of 300 migrants tried to board ferries to the UK while screaming obscenities against the very nation they were trying to reach. A spokesman for the UK’s Independent Party says that the migrants are anxious to reach the UK before the Brexit vote that would allow the British to control their own borders once again if they vote to leave the EU. [The fact that the migrants curse the country they are trying to reach shows that they do not want to migrate to it. They want to conquer it.] DailyMail 2016 Jun 21 (Story) (Cached)
Okinawa, Japan: 60,000 people marched on Sunday to ask Japan’s government to kick out U.S. bases. This protest came after a 20-year-old woman was murdered on base by a civilian worker in April. Local politicians want the US bases moved to mainland Japan. CNN 2016 Jun 20 (Story) (Cached)
Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, says more people should be armed, but not if they’re on the terror watch list. He is not aware of how easy it is for loyal Americans to be placed on the watch list for merely disagreeing with the policies of their political leaders – or is he? ABC News 2016 Jun 20 (Story)
The Israeli government is at the leading edge of designing anti-terrorism laws to destroy political opposition. It passed a new law that requires life imprisonment for anyone convicted of being a ‘terrorist mastermind’ – even if they did not participate in acts of terrorism. It is not difficult to imagine how those who oppose the policies of government leaders could be classified as terrorist masterminds. Charity groups can be declared illegal for similar reasons, and individuals supporting them can be imprisoned. The government now can seize financial assets even before indictment and conviction. All in the name of fighting terrorism. Jerusalem Post posted 2016 Jun 18 (Story) (Cached)

The UN International Criminal Court sentenced former Congolese vice-president Jean-Pierre Bemba to 18 years in prison for allowing and even encouraging rapes and murders by his soldiers in the Central African Republic over a decade ago. This case is important, not only because of the cry for justice – which is good – but because the Court is striving to gain legitimacy as the future high court of the world – which may not be so good considering the corruption found at all levels of the UN.

US: Facts surrounding the Orlando shooting suggest that it might have been a false-flag event. This analysis shows that the shooter had ties with the FBI, his employer was a covert organization called G4S, and a British crisis-actor agency called Crisis Cast lists G4S as a client.

This is a disturbing tour of a tradeshow called SOFEX (Special Operations Force Exhibition) held annually in Jordan. It allows us to see deep inside the military-industrial complex. 12,000 generals from just about every country in the world – many of them former battlefield enemies – mingle calmly and cordially, examining the latest tools of death. Even more sobering is that these generals are not buying weapons to be used against each other, but against citizens of their own countries. You have to see this to believe it.

Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the Foreign Minister of Germany, which is a member of NATO, has accused NATO of warmongering and inciting war with Russia. This seriously weakens NATO’s claim that it is merely a defensive organization. NATO now says that hacking into the computer of a government official is an act of war and could justify a full-blown military counter-attack. The US now can claim that Russia was behind hacking the emails from Hillary Clinton’s computer and, whether true or not, this would require all NATO member nations to participate in a military war with Russia if the US decides to attack.

Isn’t it amazing that, during the mad-cow epidemic. the US government was able to track a single cow, born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she slept in the state of Washington? And, they also tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11-million illegal aliens wandering around the country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.

GUARANTEED INCOME = DEPENDENCE
from Eli Dumitru
Dear Ed,
It was pointed out to me that the reason governments are going towards a guaranteed income is so the populace will be dependent on, and therefore subservient to, the government. So in addition to impinging on the freedom of the people the government wants to take the money from, a guaranteed income would also impinge on the freedom of the people that the government wants to give the money to. That’s because freedom and responsibility are two sides of the same coin. Thanks for all you do.

This story could be the smoking gun for false-flag operations
This story could be the smoking gun for false-flag operations
Santa Monica; Two police officers who wish to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation say that James Wesley Howell, an Indiana man who was found with a car full of explosives and weapons on Sunday morning, told police he was part of a team that planned shooting attacks on gay communities in Florida and California.
Howell told police he was turning himself in because he wanted protection. His story was that he had been assured by his recruiters that he would not be harmed in the shooting but, when he heard on the news that Omar Mateen, the lead gunman in the Orlando group, had been killed by sniper fire, he realized he was being set up as a patsy and would be killed.
Soon after that, the FBI took over the investigation, and information to the public was filtered to remove any facts that might show the Orlando shooting as a planned event involving others. GetOffTheBS 2016 Jun 15 (Story) (Cached)
It is important to remember that the police officers who are the source of this story choose to remain anonymous, so it cannot be independently verified at this time, but circumstantial evidence supports it. For example:
(1) After the FBI took charge of the investigation, Police Chief Jacqueline Seabrooks changed her original report that Howell was part of a group of five people who intended to do harm at the gay-pride event in West Hollywood. Her altered report made no mention of anyone other than Howell.
(2) The web site that reported this story is still carrying the article without triggering legal action against it. That is significant because, if the story is false, immediate legal action would be expected. If it is true, Howell will be killed or ‘disappeared’ to prevent him from talking, but the last thing the perpetrators would want is a public trial where witnesses can be called to testify.
This news story could be one of the most important reports ever published in the annals of journalism.
That’s quite a statement but, when you consider the nature of its content, it is no exaggeration to say that it has the potential to fundamentally change the relationship between the United States government and the American people, and that could lead to a profound change, not only in America, but the entire world.
The story still is still unfolding, and it is likely that officialdom either will pull it off the Internet or do everything possible to discredit it but, unlike most false-flag scenarios, there are many people on the outside of the plot who can verify the accuracy of this one. In fact, there may even be an entire police department to do that. If so, the sheer number of witnesses could outweigh the threats against job security or physical safety. We shall see.

UK: The vote next week may determine if Britain will remain the EU. The leftist media is politicizing the murder of Jo Cox, a British MP with the Labour party who supported the EU. The media reports that the attacker shouted “Britain first” as he killed the politician, thus suggesting that those who oppose the EU are nut-cases and killers. Eyewitnesses deny that the mentally ill man said anything. Even if voters do elect to leave the EU, the British parliament may choose to ignore the vote. Stefan Molyneux 2016 Jun 16 (Story)
Hawaii: Last year, a federal judge ruled that Maui County’s ban on growing genetically engineered crops is pre-empted by federal and state law.

California’s Cap-and-Trade program faces an uncertain future. The scheme was designed to increase government revenue by selling so-called carbon credits, which is merely a thinly disguised method of selling permits to manufacture something. However, the California Chamber of Commerce has filed a lawsuit arguing that this constitutes a tax – and an illegal one at that. Taxes need the support of two-thirds of the state legislature, something that Cap-and-Trade never received. Initially, the carbon tax was pledged to carbon-reduction programs, such as the $68-billion high-speed rail project, but much of the money was put into the state’s general fund instead.

Reporter Jon Bowne reviews the strange circumstances surrounding the Orlando mass shooting that left 49 people dead. Details include: (1) The FBI interviewed the shooter, Omar Mateen, three times, yet he was not put on a watch list; (2) Reports from co-workers that Mateen was unhinged were ignored. Mateen worked as a security officer for G4S, formerly known as Wackenhut, a company that is contracted with the Department of Homeland Security. Mateen’s father pretended to be the president of Afghanistan and said that gays should be killed. Mateen’s Imam also called for homosexuals to be killed. However, Hillary Clinton’s State Department shut down an investigation of his mosque. Obama has labeled the shooting as ‘homegrown extremism’, but his own federal agencies were major causes of the problem. InfoWars 2016 Jun 13 (Story)
