The age of propaganda is upon us

Future historians may well describe our present era as the Age of Propaganda. Never before have the forces of government and communications been so completely unified into a single machine, and never before has the truth been so twisted and filtered on its way to public perception.

This is a byproduct of the fact that most people still believe that democracy is a magic force that allows the common man to select his leaders and, thereby, determine his own political destiny. That being the case, political leaders must master the science of public-opinion engineering so the illusion of the ballot box can be maintained while, at the same time, candidates and policy issues can be selected by power brokers behind the scenes.

The Donald/Hillary cartoon at the top of this page may have led you to assume that I am thinking about the U.S. presidential campaign as I write these words, but that is not the case. That would be too easy and far less controversial than my true destination, which is the war than now is raging for control of Aleppo in Syria.

The following two stories from this week’s news are about the propaganda and lies that have been pumped into the public mind by mainstream media. Why this is being done is a story in itself, but it can be summarized as: Opinion engineering to create public support for aggressive wars that benefit the oligarchs who comprise the military-industrial-political complex of the Western world. It is not about fighting terrorism. It is about using terrorism.

Syria: Jabhat al-Nusra unit commander Abu Al Ezz told a German newspaper that his group is supported by the US through the governments of other countries. He said his group is part of al-Qaeda and was affiliated with ISIS, but ISIS has drifted away from fighting for an Islamic Sharia state because it is working with the intelligence services of the US. He stated that, when his army was besieged, experts from the US, Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Israel showed up to supply and train them with sophisticated equipment.

Syria: This is a must-see briefing on the current lies and deceptions about the war in Aleppo. Journalist Vanessa Beeley, drawing from her first-hand experience in the war-torn area, says that everything reported in the Western media, not only is wrong, it is deliberately wrong. For example, the ‘White Helmets’, which are portrayed as volunteer, humanitarian first-responders who rescue civilian casualties of unprovoked Russian attacks, really are the same terrorists who are being funded and equipped by the US and its NATO allies to topple the Assad regime. The White Helmet image is a propaganda ploy to create public support for further funding of the terrorists and to draw attention away from the real civil-defense workers from the Syrian government. You will be amazed at how well her report explains the otherwise unexplainable events in Syria. RPI 2016 Sep 29 (Story)

US: Congress overrides Obama’s veto of a bill letting families of 9/11 victims sue Saudi Arabia. Obama said it would open the door for retaliatory litigation against the US, but proponents of the bill said it was narrowly tailored so it only applies to governments that sponsor terror attacks on US soil.

Deutsche Bank dropped over 7% in book value and dragged other highly leveraged and interconnected banks with it. Bank of America, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan Chase each lost more than 2% in value. But the real losses could be much greater. In 2014, Citigroup sponsored an amendment to a Congressional spending bill that allows banks to keep trillions of derivatives on their books as insured deposits, which they are not. That put the U.S. taxpayer back on the hook for another massive bailout [or bailin] the next time banks collectively fail. That date appears to be rapidly approaching.

New York: Here is the full debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. The moderator, Lester Holt, kept Trump on the defensive with questions aligned with DNC talking points: Trump’s tax return, Russia, bankruptcy, sexism, racism, Obama’s birth certificate, etc. As expected, Trump got stuck trying to explain detailed issues while Hillary appeared proficient and skilled at covering up her record in office, and she displayed no evidence of health problems during the 90-minute ordeal.

ANALYSIS

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.

Federal Reserve Chairman Janet Yellen says that the Fed is considering investing in the stock market if Congress will authorize it. [This is almost humorous. For many years, the Fed has operated a so-called Plunge-Protection Team, comprised of the nation’s largest investment firms, that has invested covertly in the stock market through secret deals in which investment losses, if any, are passed on to the taxpayers. Now the Fed is thinking that it might be better to bring the operation into the open by holding the stock directly and making it legal. If the Fed were to ‘invest’ in the market, it would create money out of nothing to acquire stock shares at prices higher than real investors are willing to pay. The political advantage is that it would conceal the reality of falling stock prices and makes the public think the economy is booming when it really is flat on its face. The losses will be passed on to the public through inflation. What could possibly be wrong with such a wonderful plan?] ETF Daily News 2016 Sep 29 (Story) (Cached)

HUMOR

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.

Dear Tony,
I have been unable to sleep since I broke off your engagement to my daughter. Will you forgive and forget? I was much too sensitive about your Mohawk, tattoos and pierced nose. I now realize that motorcycles aren’t really THAT dangerous, and I really should not have reacted that way to the fact that you have never held a job. I am sure, too, that some other very nice people live under the bridge in the park.

Sure, my daughter is only eighteen and wants to marry you instead of going to Harvard on full scholarship but, after all, you can’t learn everything about life from college or books.

I sometimes forget how backward I can be. I was wrong. I was a fool. I have now come to my senses, and you have my full blessing to marry my daughter.

Sincerely,
Ralph
Your future father-in-law
P.S. Congratulations on winning the lottery.

THE MOST EVIL MAN ON EARTH
2016 Sep 20 from Jackie
Mr. Griffin, We all know that it is George Soros and friends that are destroying this country. He tried it in other nations, but they were a lot wiser than the USA and kicked him out before he could ruin their country. He is on the way to victory in the USA, and it behooves me that the intelligence of this country are letting Georgie boy have his way…..What can we do about this? How can we get the most evil man on earth out of our domain….and banned from investing or using this country in any manner, shape or form? Are we Americans supposed to sit back and watch our demise take place? Are we that helpless? George Soros has been at work behind the scenes for years and the country is blind to his dangerous shenanigans.

WAS IT WRONG TO PUBLISH THE TESTIMONY OF A MAN WHO SAID HE WAS AN ASSASSIN FOR PHILIPPINES PRESIDENT DUTERTE?
2016 Sep 19 from Damien Aargon
How do you know that the information about Duterte is true? It comes from the same government that is angry with Duterte for his action against drug people? So now you trust what this guy is saying to a panel? Hmmmmm.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Damien.
You have raised a good point. We always face this issue when we find adverse information about political figures who have enemies – no matter which side they are on. We try not to jump to conclusions, but events keep moving forward, and we have to make decisions based on our best judgment or just forget trying to report any news at all.

Our best judgment is affected by the answers to two questions: (1) Does the news item seem consistent with what we know to be true? And (2) Is there information from credible sources that contradicts the news item? If the answers are yes to the first question and no to the second, generally we feel that the item is worth reporting.

Our track record has been amazingly good following this formula. I can recall only two times in all the years of reporting the news that we have had to issue a retraction. I hope you agree that we are following the right policy. Thanks for writing.

MEDICATIONS FOR DIABETES ARE POISON – And a thyroid supplement for 22 cents per day!
2016 Sep 19 from Jerry Hewes
Ed,
First let me applaud you for your comments about your own health experience. Obviously, doctors don’t approve of this because we are not “professionals” but we have found such discussion very informative. Thank you!

Also, I have found that all the medications for diabetes are poison, destroying your pancreas bit by bit. Victoza? Outrageously expensive and pure poison to your pancreas. (My personal experience.) There are already a number of lawsuits against Victoza which is probably why it is so expensive. If you need to take anything, take insulin. Time tested by many people for many decades. It is normal to your body and does not attack the pancreas.

Another miracle supplement is thyroid supplemen-tation. Is has been my wife’s and my observation that doctors do not like to prescribe help for your thyroid because it makes you too healthy and you do not return to doctors. Upon seeing how my wife’s (68yr) health was deteriorating similar to my former experience, she requested thyroid supplementation because she took my “Nature-Throid” and found it indispensable, affecting in a very beneficial way, her whole body!

She requested thyroid medication from two doctors and was told she did not need it by her regular doctor and was “ordered out of the office” in the second case. She went to my alternative care NP and got the prescription, and all has gone very well since. Nature-Throid costs as low as 22 cents a day!

Note: I guess the AMA finally realized that Nature-Throid is a very good medication because they recently stopped the NP from dispensing it in her office.

Rioters and looters are not warriors for social justice

This will be the shortest commentary I have ever written. After constructing the headline, I realized that it says it all. The following stories from this week’s news provide the details.

2016 September 23

_________________________

Charlotte, North Carolina: Keith Scott, a black man, was fatally shot by a plainclothes police officer, Brentley Vinson, who also was black. Officers claim they saw Scott exit a vehicle in the parking lot while carrying a handgun, which he refused to drop on command. A gun was found at the scene. Scott’s family insists that Scott was in his car reading a book, but no book was found at the scene. Police are withholding the video recording of the shooting from the public but did show it to the family. Several nights of protests followed that devolved into violence, looting, and the killing of a black civilian by another black civilian. The National Guard has been deployed. Fox News 2016 Sep 22 (Story)

Paul Watson pulls no punches in this commentary on the fact that the recent event in Charlotte was not a peaceful demonstration, as portrayed by the media, but a riot by gangs and thugs looking for an excuse to loot and destroy. Nor was it about the injustice of blacks being killed by whites. The triggering event was a black man with a criminal record being shot by a black police officer, and the riots that ensued resulted in a black civilian being killed by another black civilian. Yet the mainstream media and leaders of Black Lives Matter continue to spread the propaganda that it was about black justice against white injustice. In truth, it has nothing to do with race. It is a well funded movement to divide and destroy America. Watson is angry – and we should be also. InfoWars 2016 Sep 22 (Story)

Pentagon officials, Ash Carter and General Joseph Dunford, testified before the US Senate that they “had no facts” to support their claim that Russia attacked the humanitarian-aid convoy in Aleppo that ended the ceasefire.

Those who raise livestock have a higher risk for MRSA, but the new strain infected ten urban-dwellers who had no contact with live farm animals.

Yahoo announced that 500 million of its users’ accounts have been hacked in the largest data breach ever. The hacked data may include names, email addresses, telephone numbers, birthdates, and encrypted passwords. Yahoo says that payment data, bank-account information, and unprotected passwords were not stolen. Falling in step with the recent claim by the Democrat Party that its emails may have been hacked by Putin, Yahoo blames this new hack on a “state-sponsored actor”. [It is our suspicion that, when hacks occur at large organizations with high-tech computer-security systems, the managers of those systems might prefer to blame it on a “state-sponsored actor” and, thereby, assume the role of victim rather than appear incompetent. Just a thought.] ZeroHedge 2016 Sep 22 (Story) (Cached)

An Israeli court released a 13-year old Palestinian girl who had been shot in the leg by Israeli forces. She was unarmed at the time of the shooting, which occurred at a traffic stop. The Court determined that she was not trying to carry out a stabbing attack, as was claimed by the Israeli military. Seven Palestinians, including two minors, have been shot and killed in the last few days. UN investigators report that, since the unrest started a year ago, there has been a pattern of killing Palestinians who did not present an imminent threat. Maan News 2016 Sep 22 (Story) (Cached)

Ahmad Khan Rahami, an Afghan-born US citizen, was arrested on charges of terrorism in several bombing incidents. The first was a pipe bomb that blew up in Seaside Park, New Jersey, but didn’t injure anyone. Later that night, a shrapnel-packed pressure-cooker bomb exploded in New York, injuring 31 people, none seriously. An unexploded pressure-cooker bomb was found blocks away with Rahami’s fingerprints on it, and his image was captured by a nearby surveillance camera. Rahami’s father called the FBI in 2014 to report that his son “was doing real bad,” as he had stabbed his brother and hit his mother. The FBI cleared Rahami from a terror investigation after two months. [See commentary on this event in the Analysis section.] Chicago Tribune 2016 Sep 20 (Story) (Cached)

Syria: Less than two weeks after a ceasefire was announced by the US and Russia, the agreement was broken. The US failed to keep its pledge to force a separation between its “moderate” rebels and al-Qaeda and ISIS groups. A US strike on Syrian forces killed as many as 80 soldiers and, just before the US and Russia were to launch coordinated strikes against ISIS, a convoy of trucks with humanitarian supplies was attacked instead. The US blamed Russia without offering evidence, but ISIS (which is covertly supported by the US) was the sole beneficiary of the attack. RPI 2016 Sep 20 (Story)

Tulsa Police Officer, Betty Shelby, a white woman, shot and killed Terence Crutcher, an unarmed black man, on the road where his vehicle had broken down. Shelby says Crutcher was not following orders, he lowered his raised hand, and he appeared to be on drugs when she shot him. Crutcher’s family says he committed no crime and there was no reason to shoot him. Crutcher had a criminal record that includes drug trafficking and a gun violation.

US: Senator Rand Paul has introduced a resolution to block a $1.15 billion arms sale to Saudi Arabia, because the Saudis are the “frenemy” of America. That means they sometimes are a friend and sometimes an enemy.

A report from the US Inspector General reveals that 858 illegal aliens from ‘countries of concern’ who were scheduled to be deported, instead, were granted US citizenship. The official explanation for this is that it was an error based on the fact that the Department of Homeland Security did not have the aliens’ fingerprints on file. The Inspector General also found fingerprints missing from federal databases for 315,000 immigrants with final deportation orders or who are fugitive criminals. [It is apparent that powerful groups within the government want to make it difficult if not impossible to remove illegal aliens from the country. Cultural dilution, internal conflict, and easily manipulated voters are the goal.] Fox News 2016 Sep 19 (Story) (Cached)

ANALYSIS

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.

Former CIA Deputy Director, Michael Morell, in an amazingly frank TV interview, explains how the CIA assassinates people close to the world leaders that they want to topple. Rather than killing the leaders, themselves, they kill their closest associates to let the leaders know they can be knocked off any time the CIA wants. The goal is to create enough fear and anger to cause the leaders to retaliate in some way that then can be used as proof of their evil nature and as an excuse to wage all-out war against them. The killing of Putin’s favorite chauffeur is a dramatic example that Morell’s plan is a reality. Truthstream Media posted 2016 Sep 23 (Story)

Here is mind-boggling evidence that George Bush, Sr. and Bill Clinton were business partners in the1980s illegal drug trade years before either became president. Bush was the head of the CIA and later Vice President when the CIA smuggled cocaine from Colombia, by way of Nicaragua, into the US.

David Knight gives a rave review to Oliver Stone’s new movie, Snowden. The movie shows how the NSA’s domestic spying programs affect individuals personally and, by so doing, answers the question of why we should care. The NSA claims to collect only metadata, (data about personal activities) and does not listen to private conversations. That almost certainly is not true, but metadata is even more of a threat to privacy than eavesdropping. The Washington Post was one of the four media outlets that Snowden entrusted to publish the secret government documents. The Post (dominated by members of the CFR) now is calling for Snowden’s prosecution. InfoWars 2016 Sep 20 (Story)

HUMOR

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.

George Phillips, an elderly man from Walled Lake, Michigan, was going up to bed when his wife told him that he’d left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things.

He phoned the police, who asked “Is someone in your house?” He said “No,” but some people are breaking into my garden shed and stealing from me.”

The police dispatcher said “All patrols are busy, you should lock your doors, and an officer will be along when one is available”

George said, “Okay.” He hung up the phone and counted to 30. Then he phoned the police again. “Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago, because there were people stealing things from my shed. Well, you don’t have to worry about them now, because I just shot and killed them both. The dogs are eating them right now,” and he hung up.

Within five minutes, six police cars, a SWAT team, a helicopter, two fire trucks, a paramedic, and an ambulance showed up at the Phillips’ residence and caught the burglars red-handed. One of the Policemen said to George, “I thought you said you’d shot them!” George said, “I thought you said there was nobody available!”

SOME CRITICS ARE GOOD FOR BUSINESS
2016 Sep 22 from Rick Casey
This topic can be confusing if you don’t know how it started. Therefore, I have pulled together the full discussion thread starting from the beginning. If you have already seen the earlier exchange, just skip the following link and pick it up with WHERE IS THE MEDICAL FRAUD?

To start from the beginning, read the message from Mr. Casey in the Forum section of the Sept. 9 issue of Need to Know news.

WHERE IS THE MEDICAL FRAUD?
2016 Sep 19 from Rick Casey
[This is a continuation of Mr Casey’ message to GEG.]

What bothers me about your participation in promoting proprietary concoctions with unknown mechanisms of actions is that you are making money on these concepts without one scintilla of scientific evidence that it works. Just because you have every reason to believe this product works well for most people you still don’t give any reasons why you believe this to be true, cite any numbers regarding your believe, you just stand on testimonials which you can get on most any product. [That statement is not true. All of our health-related product pages are loaded with scientific reasons, reports, and even quite a few numbers. Apparently Mr. Casey has not taken the time to examine those pages on our web site. GEG.]

True, it helps to know who your researchers were, the schools behind the studies, and to look @ metaanalysis studies and use your brain for discernment. Not all scientific studies are skewed as you allude too by big pharma.

On the other hand , you present absolutely nothing to guide prudent judgement on, just the fact that you feel good about your reasons on a product that you make money on and readily admit it! The fact that they have no side effects is a back doors approach that means nothing about whether the product really works.

Please explain to your readers why someone shouldn’t be suspicious of someone who is profiting off of desperate people with no more proof of action than you have presented in your promotional ad?

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Rick.
I see that you are stuck on the false premise that testimonials are not reliable evidence of efficacy and that so-called scientific studies are. However, the thrust of your objection to our offering health-related products through Reality Zone is expressed in your last sentence: “Please explain to your readers why someone shouldn’t be suspicious of someone who is profiting off of desperate people with no more proof of action than you have presented in your promotional ad?”

In summary, you are indignant over profiting from desperate people by offering a therapy with no proof of effective action. Since you claim that there is “no proof”, that means you do not consider individual case histories, even when there are hundreds or thousands of them, to be “proof”.

OK. In the interest of time, I’ll let that pass without comment, but when is the last time you sent an equally indignant letter to establishment medical services about profiting from desperate people by offering them chemotherapy, radiation, vaccines, and thousands of toxic concoctions called drugs with no more proof of effective action than presented in promotional ads in medical journals – paid for by the producers and distributors of those nostrums? As you surely are aware, in almost all of those categories, the failure rate is abysmally high.

Why have you not directed some of your indignation to this huge sector of fraud and genocide? Why are you so singularly suspicious of non-toxic substances that cannot be patented, substances that have little or no negative side effects, and substances that have legions of very happy people anxious to tell the world about how much better they are after using them?

If it’s fraud and profiteering you are anxious to expose, I suggest you spend more time at your neighborhood pharmacy and local hospital.

MR. CASEY’S REPLY 2016 Sep 22:
You did not carefully read my response where I qualified what scientific studies could be reliable. Also metaanalysis studies combining large numbers of patients (1000’s) by different investigators are certainly more reliable as they come from multiple schools and researchers not sponsored by the same Big Pharma.

Whether I send an equally indignant letter to oncologists, or big pharma companies has nothing to do with whether your actions are ethical or not, and you are supposed to set yourself to a higher standard than they do or are you joining the ranks of charlatans who hoodwink the public by proclaiming great benefit yet hiding the ingredients and basing all your success on uncontrolled testimonials? You could do a study yourself by giving placebo meds to people and not charging and seeing if your product vs. placebo had different testimonials.

You are kind of presenting this like a religious belief in which 100’s of people agree with you and 100’s don’t. But you feel reasonable good that you are correct because 100 people agree with you. That’s not science, that’s greed and you can’t be lending your sponsorship without any more evidence than you have given.

In medical journals you allude to they always say ask your Dr. if this is right for you as he is supposed to have a knowledgeable and discriminating mind. Some are better than others and that’s where your discriminating mind should come into play. There’s a sucker on every corner and you hope your second professional opinion will help you reason through the various choices.

As a matter of fact, I have challenged the conventional medical community on some chemotherapy, radiation, and vaccines but that still doesn’t make your endorsement right. I couldn’t care less whether something is patented or not, You just need to stick to the facts you know best like the Federal Reserve as you really don’t have the time to do medical research.

As for the last comment you make, are you really saying the hospital and local neighborhood pharmacy are a fraud? Do you ever purchase anything from a pharmacy and have you ever received care in a hospital? Those broadsweeping statements you make could come back to haunt you really soon.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Thanks for writing.

RESPONSE FROM MR. CASEY:
I think it was probably good that you decided not to publish my retorts to you as your sales would have probably fallen. It’s good for you to be challenged on a public venue occasionally but not really fair to respond and not publish it as you can control the tempo. The power of the press is great but the power of regulating the press is kind of like a controlled study sponsored by big Pharma.

REPLY FROM GEG 2016 Sep 22:
You don’t get it, do you Rick? First of all, if you had actually studied the information on our product pages, you would know that we are heavily backed by scientific research. You raise a straw-man argument when you accuse me of endorsing products with no “scientific” evidence of effectiveness. However, to answer your accusation line-by-line likely would be a waste of time for both of us because you have made up your mind that only studies conducted within the hallowed hall of allopathic medicine are worth considering.

The real irony in your reply is that you actually think I am overpowered by your “retorts” as you call them. What you fail to perceive is that, every time someone like you attacks me (or anyone else in the non-drug therapy camp) for not worshiping at the altar of orthodox medicine, it angers the overwhelming majority of our readers and triggers a wave of additional support for what we are doing. In other words, your myopia to the vast and almost universal corruption in the drug-based health-care system is actually good for our business.

The reason I decided not to publish your last letter is that it was too long to hold anyone’s attention and it offered nothing new to the discussion. There was not much more I could say in response except to repeat my basic position as you did – which is not very intellectually stimulating and a terrible waste of time. I was prepared to let the issue fade.

However, now that you apparently think that the repetition of your basic argument has made me afraid to let others read your masterpiece, I will publish it in full. As I said before, your “retorts” are actually good for our business, and I suppose it would be foolish not to take advantage of your assistance. Thank you.

PS. Unless you have something new to offer in this discussion, please do not waste your time with yet one more insult to my character. Further accusations that I am driven by greed with no genuine interest in the health of my friends and supporters will not be acknowledged.

THE MOST EVIL MAN ON EARTH
2016 Sep 20 from Jackie
Mr. Griffin, We all know that it is George Soros and friends that are destroying this country. He tried it in other nations, but they were a lot wiser than the USA and kicked him out before he could ruin their country. He is on the way to victory in the USA, and it behooves me that the intelligence of this country are letting Georgie boy have his way…..What can we do about this? How can we get the most evil man on earth out of our domain….and banned from investing or using this country in any manner, shape or form? Are we Americans supposed to sit back and watch our demise take place? Are we that helpless? George Soros has been at work behind the scenes for years and the country is blind to his dangerous shenanigans.

TOXIC RAIN IN TEXAS?
2016 Sep 19 from Pat Baker
Mr Griffin,
My wife and I live 100 miles NW of Del Rio, Texas, 16 miles N of the Rio Grande. So this area is known to be open and dry. We have watched the “lines in the sky” for several years, now. But what happened last week is something new, here at least.

We received 4 1/2″ of rain in 3 days, finally. But what happened to our apple trees is new: the leaves all curled up and turned brown inside of one day after the rain.

We have eight different apple types so not all are affected the same by diseases/insects. One tree is totally dead and all seven others are starting to drop the dead leaves and sprout new ones. Very strange. Same thing in our outside garden. We now have bunches of dead plants of all types.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Very strange, indeed. Is it realistic for you to have the dead leaves and perhaps some of the dying ones chemically analyzed? If so, that could be very enlightening.

WAS IT WRONG TO PUBLISH THE TESTIMONY OF A MAN WHO SAID HE WAS AN ASSASSIN FOR PHILIPPINES PRESIDENT DUTERTE?
2016 Sep 19 from Damien Aargon
How do you know that the information about Duterte is true? It comes from the same government that is angry with Duterte for his action against drug people? So now you trust what this guy is saying to a panel? Hmmmmm.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Damien.
You have raised a good point. We always face this issue when we find adverse information about political figures who have enemies – no matter which side they are on. We try not to jump to conclusions, but events keep moving forward, and we have to make decisions based on our best judgment or just forget trying to report any news at all.

Our best judgment is affected by the answers to two questions: (1) Does the news item seem consistent with what we know to be true? And (2) Is there information from credible sources that contradicts the news item? If the answers are yes to the first question and no to the second, generally we feel that the item is worth reporting.

Our track record has been amazingly good following this formula. I can recall only two times in all the years of reporting the news that we have had to issue a retraction. I hope you agree that we are following the right policy. Thanks for writing.

MEDICATIONS FOR DIABETES ARE POISON – And a thyroid supplement for 22 cents per day!
2016 Sep 19 from Jerry Hewes
Ed,
First let me applaud you for your comments about your own health experience. Obviously, doctors don’t approve of this because we are not “professionals” but we have found such discussion very informative. Thank you!

Also, I have found that all the medications for diabetes are poison, destroying your pancreas bit by bit. Victoza? Outrageously expensive and pure poison to your pancreas. (My personal experience.) There are already a number of lawsuits against Victoza which is probably why it is so expensive. If you need to take anything, take insulin. Time tested by many people for many decades. It is normal to your body and does not attack the pancreas.

Another miracle supplement is thyroid supplemen-tation. Is has been my wife’s and my observation that doctors do not like to prescribe help for your thyroid because it makes you too healthy and you do not return to doctors. Upon seeing how my wife’s (68yr) health was deteriorating similar to my former experience, she requested thyroid supplementation because she took my “Nature-Throid” and found it indispensable, affecting in a very beneficial way, her whole body!

She requested thyroid medication from two doctors and was told she did not need it by her regular doctor and was “ordered out of the office” in the second case. She went to my alternative care NP and got the prescription, and all has gone very well since. Nature-Throid costs as low as 22 cents a day!

Note: I guess the AMA finally realized that Nature-Throid is a very good medication because they recently stopped the NP from dispensing it in her office.

DOG-AND-PONY SHOW CALLED POLITICS
2016 Sep 18 from Dave
Dave sent a long and well reasoned letter in support of the idea that governments are rotten to the core, and that the dog-and-pony show called politics serves only to provide the illusion that we are participating in our own political destiny. Then he raised the question: why waste our time following political issues or seeking to affect election outcomes?

Dave said: “Our efforts would be much better spent on educating the general public into their correct standing and responsibilities and start operating our abandoned government from so many years ago.”

REPLY FROM GEG:
Dave, I agree that this is what we should do, but I feel that it is not an “either-or” choice suggested by your statement that our efforts would be “better spent ….” There is a third choice in which we educate the people, yes, but not on all issues at once. We cannot expect them to reject the myth of democracy in their first lesson. We must take it one step at a time, and we must make friends along the way, not enemies.

We cannot educate the public unless the public is willing to listen to us. The quickest way to alienate ourselves from those we seek to educate is to back up the truck, pull the lever, and bury them in facts they are not yet prepared to accept. Telling people they are ignorant and stupid is not a good way to win friends.

To educate people, we must go to where they are, not where we think they should be. They are not in ivory towers. We will find them attending the dog-and-pony show, so that is where we must toil.

The enemy of your enemy may not be your friend

We are living in a time when it is increasingly difficult to vote for political candidates or issues that we approve. That is because they seldom are on the ballot. Candidates are carefully selected ahead of time by political power brokers, and voters are left with choosing the lesser of two evils. People no longer vote for someone. They vote AGAINST someone.

Beneath this reasoning is the idea that, in warfare, you cannot be picky about your allies, and that any enemy of your enemy is your friend. It is an alluring concept but it seldom works to your advantage, especially in politics. If you want to rid your back yard of alligators, you would be foolish to import crocodiles to chase them off.

An excellent example of this is in this week’s news. Many advocates of the war on drugs are pleased with the fact that Philippines President Duterte has quickly broken the recreational drug trade. They are not too pleased that there have been hundreds of on-the-street executions of “suspected” drug pushers and users, but they take solace in the fact that the drug problem is solved. The end justifies the means.

Now we learn that, when Duterte was Mayor of Davao, he used his police and civilian hit men to execute his political opponents as well. No drug problem anymore in the Philippines but now there is a totalitarian regime that you better not oppose. Out of the frying pan into the fire.

[The real question here is not if Google is doing a good thing but if it should be allowed to manipulate the attitudes of those who seek information on the Internet. Since when is a private company (or any other entity, including government) to be trusted with manipulating the flow of information? Once that power is condoned, eventually it will be abused.] RT 2016 Sep 14 (Story)

ANALYSIS

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.

US mainstream media, which endlessly accuses its detractors of being ‘conspiracy theorists’, has unleashed an amazing conspiracy theory of its own. It is that Hillary Clinton’s recent collapse is not because of health problems that would prevent her from serving as President, but because she is being poisoned by secret agents of Trump or possibly Putin! In this report, James Corbett asks a serious question: Is it possible that the public is being set up for an election that, no matter which way it goes, will trigger massive riots [with a little help from professional agitators] that would provide an excuse for martial law? Please send your comments to the Unfiltered Forum here. Corbett Report 2016 Sep 14 (Story)

Obama halted the North Dakota pipeline with an executive order on the claim that it conflicted with the rights of a local Indian reservation. It made no difference that the project was 48% complete or that this matter had been decided by a federal court in favor of the pipeline. [The issue here is, not whether the pipeline placement was correct or incorrect, but that the President declared the power to override the courts – and no one in Congress challenged it.] Say Anything 2016 Sep 12 (Story) (Cached)

This is the backstory to the controversy over the North Dakota pipeline. There is much more to this than meets the eye, and most of the so-called news about it is propaganda. It involves the anti-fossil fuel movement, a clash over property rights, the Indian-heritage issue, and greed. You need to understand these issues to avoid being fooled by the propaganda.

James Corbett sifts through the evidence of 9/11 to discover the role of the ‘dancing Israelis’ who took pictures of the scene and later confessed on Israeli TV to having foreknowledge of the attack. Corbett concludes that their mission was to divert attention from an Israeli spy ring that had been under investigation before 9/11 leading to the detention of 60 Israeli spies in the wake of the attack. The jaw-dropping TV news reports shown here were scrubbed from the archives by Fox News. This is a piece of the puzzle that very few Americans have seen. [Because of the attempt to remove all traces of these news reports, we suggest that you save a video copy of this program to your computer.] Corbett Report 2016 Sep 11 (Story)

James Corbett investigated the government’s response to 9/11 and found that General Ralph Eberhart played a key role in disabling standard defense procedures and, thereby, caused the largest failure to defend North American airspace in history. The official record shows that Eberhart lied in testimony to Congress and the 9/11 Commission. In spite of this, he never has been called to account and is generally considered as a 9/11 American hero. Corbett Report posted 2016 Sep 10 (Story)

TRUMP TO BE SET UP OR KNOCKED OFF?
2015 Sep 13 from Scot Srodes
Since Trump will easily be able to blame the economic reset on 8 yrs of Obama, the more likely scenario is they try to knock Trump off. I’ve been predicting a Trump win since Brexit, and I think the establishment knows it too. Since they can never permit Trump to end their rigged game, ANYTHING is on the table.

THE POLITICAL POWER OF TERMITES
2016 Sep 13 from Jerry Day
Hi Ed,
Thank you for your comment, insight and wisdom. Of course, history is no stranger to the type of tyranny you describe, but those oppressive regimes have never prevailed in the long run, and are in fact demonized and hated in the collective memory.

[The only question] appears to be how murderous and oppressive it is possible for a government to be, and for how long, when it has no public support, inadequate funding and impossible scales of debt. Those circumstances brought Rome down, and are very likely to bring down much of our current global establishment. …

You are right, we should never fight overwhelming violence with violence, that is suicide. Fortunately, intelligent resistance usually does the job as well if not better. “Non-participation” does not just refer to off-grid preppers, it is everyone who is disgusted with leadership and who finds some way to react. Termites are not violent or forceful, but enough of them can collapse a house.

CAN THE BANK TRAIN WRECK BE AVERTED?
2016 Sep 13 from Alan Myers, CPA
Good Morning Mr. Griffin
I read your email this morning regarding Trump being set up. … I agree, a massive international banking crisis will come soon. It must. The international financial and banking world is so completely interconnected that, when one big institution fails, it will suck all the others into the vortex. Such as Deutsche Bank with all its exposure to the trillions of derivative bets it is involved in. Then there is the world’s oldest bank in Italy that is on the verge.

My comment is this. Until the moment that the RMS Titanic hit the iceberg, there was an opportunity to change course. We haven’t hit the iceberg yet, but we are steaming towards it at an ever quickening pace.

We can’t cure a disease by applying only symptomatic relief. We must go after the direct cause of the disease. In this case, it is the banking system itself. For our country it is the FED. …

Bernie Madoff is doing 150 years for running his Ponzi. It’s time someone goes to jail for running the [Fed] Ponzi. I don’t think it is too late. We can stop this train wreck. And one way or another, I want to be part of this process.

TESTIMONIALS BETTER THAN DOUBLE-BLIND STUDIES

Hi Ed,
Regarding your reader’s comment: POOEY ON ANTI-PAIN TESTIMONIALS? 2016 Sep 7 from Rick Casey:

All my ‘evidence’ of getting well through natural means is “anecdotal” but it beats EVERYTHING the allopathic witchdoctors have tried in their attempt at poisoning and robbing me. I go with a multitude of “anecdotal” evidence IF the testimonies are honorable. In fact, I will take honest testimony ANY DAY over “double-blind studies” b/c of the politics involved in the latter. It’s all about “the take” in “commerce”.

Unthinkable questions about 9/11

The annual commemoration of 9/11 has become a sad tradition in America. For me, it also is frustrating, because that sadness is channeled by the media so that it stays focused only on the loss of lives and the tragedy of broken families.

Those deserve our deepest sympathy, of course, but there are equally tragic elements of 9/11 that are never given media attention. They involve the unthinkable question: Were there people in the United States who had advance knowledge of the attack, who knowingly benefited from it, or even who helped to make it happen?

Below are three video reports by journalist, James Corbett, that courageously ask those questions and then provide the shocking answers. It is essential that the topic of 9/11 does not fade from our consciousness, as suggested by this week’s cartoon. These reports contain facts that you will never forget.

THREE ‘SUSPECTS’ IN
THE WORLD’S GREATEST CRIME

Robert Baer, a former high-level CIA agent, told video activists with We Are Change LA that he knew a man who “cashed out” the day before 9/11. He said the man’s brother worked at the White House. No one in government has ever followed up to see who it was at the White House who had foreknowledge of 9/11. Here is Baer’s video statement. Corbett Report 2016 Sep 8 (Story)

For more than a year after 9/11, former President George W. Bush did everything possible to prevent an investigation of the attack. Yielding to public pressure, he finally authorized an investigation and appointed Phillip Zelikow to direct the 9/11 Commission. This report shows that Zelikow was chosen because of his close ties to the Bush team and his commitment to the concept that America needed another ‘myth’, as he called it, similar to the attack on Pearl Harbor, that could facilitate sweeping social and political change. Here are the details of how the so-called investigation was directed and whitewashed by Zelikow. Corbett Report 2016 Sep 7 (Story)

Former New York Mayor, Rudy Giuliani, is a primary suspect in the 9/11 disaster and cover up for several reasons. One is his leadership role in clearing away all evidence from the crime scene. Over 1.5 million tons of debris were removed, and the scrap was sold to the Chinese at discount prices to get the debris out of the US as quickly as possible to prevent forensic analysis. Authorities refused to test for explosives and thermite. Giuliani said that he and his staff were not in his emergency bunker in the towers because he was warned that the building would collapse. Other emergency workers were not notified. Corbett Report 2016 Sep 5 (Story)

North Korea successfully tested a surface nuclear bomb that caused a 5.3 magnitude earthquake. The North Korean government says this demonstration is to counter US hostilities and is a warning that it will not tolerate US joint military drills with South Korea or the launching of a new missile system in the South.

St. Louis, Missouri: Darren Seals was found shot dead in a burning car. Seals was one of the first protesters in Ferguson following Michael Brown’s death, and he founded the ‘Hands Up United’ group. When he realized the Democrat Party was not really working for the best interests of black people, he tried to break up the black Democrat voting bloc. Seals also opposed the Black Lives Matter group, calling it ACTORvists who were motivated by money from Jay-Z’s Tidal music service and George Soros. He once slapped Deray Mckesson, a leader of BLM who has attended conferences with Obama in the White House. Now Seals is dead. Reason 2016 Sep 8 (Story) (Cached)

(2) Miami Beach will begin aerial spraying of Naled pesticide against strong opposition from residents. The chemical acts as a neurotoxin in humans. Miami previously has used a natural bacterium called BTI that kills mosquito larvae, but it is slow acting, so they are supplementing it with Naled. [We have reported many times before that there is no credible scientific evidence that Zika causes birth defects. Insiders are making a fortune from this bogus threat – and Miami Beach residents will be poisoned.] CBS News 2016 Sep 7 (Story)

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte called an indefinite state of emergency after a bomb attack left 14 people dead. Muslim Abu Sayyaf extremists claimed responsibility for the action. Duterte’s proclamation grants sweeping powers to the police and armed forces and is not subject to a 60-day limitation as with martial law. In addition to the recent violence, more than 2,400 suspected drug dealers and drug users have been killed by police, the military, and private citizens since Duterte took power.

Dr. Anthony Samsel, a research chemist and biomedical investigator, presents proof that glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s RoundUp Ready pesticide, is in almost all vaccines. These include MMR, chickenpox, shingles, hepatitis, and flu. He believes the source of contamination is animal protein from eggs or gelatin from bones, both of which are used to cultivate vaccine components. Children’s ‘gummie’ vitamins made from gelatin also contain glyphosate. Tony Mitra posted 2016 Sep 3 (Story)

Major Jason Brezler of the US Marines sent classified documents on his Yahoo email account to warn other Marines about an Afghani police chief who was corrupt and notoriously kept boys as sex slaves. Shortly after Brezler tried to warn his colleague about the police chief, one of the chief’s boys shot and killed three US Marines. Brezler turned himself in for the security violation of sending classified documents but is being terminated from the military instead of court-martialed, apparently because the government wants to keep the case quiet.

ANALYSIS

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.

Dr. Ted Noel, who spent 32 years working in critical care and anesthesia and 10 years as the medical director of a surgical center, says it is his opinion that Hillary Clinton has Parkinson’s disease based on her symptoms. He is sure she has known about it for quite a while because her head-bobbing symptom is a common side effect of the drug, Levodopa, that usually takes about ten years to manifest. Hillary exhibits ten signs of Parkinson’s, including tremors, freezes, slow movement, dyskinesia, posture rigidity, swallowing disorder, and loss of balance. Parkinson’s is a disqualifying disease for a high-stress position such as the presidency. Next News Network 2016 Sep 8 (Story)

Germany: Deutsche Bank is a sponsor and agent of Xetra-Gold, a company that sells ‘gold-backed’ bonds. Its web site says that clients have the right to physical delivery of their gold. However, Deutsche Bank clients are being refused the precious metal because that is no longer the bank’s ‘business policy’. [The only surprise in this is that people with enough wealth to purchase gold bonds are so naive as to trust banks.] RT posted 2016 Sep 3 (Story) (Cached)

Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a biomedical researcher and computer scientist from MIT, describes how glyphosate (from Monstanto’s RoundUp Ready pesticide) causes toxic vaccines to become even more toxic. This could explain why the incidence of vaccine toxicity increased markedly after RoundUp Ready was introduced into our food supply. This is pretty technical but extremely important.

POOEY ON ANTI-PAIN TESTIMONIALS?
2016 Sep 7 from Rick Casey
Subject: Your email: PAIN RELIEF WITHOUT DRUGS?

Do you realize that testimonials are the lowest form of scientific evidence? How much money do you make on this endorsement?

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Rick.
If testimonials are the lowest form of scientific evidence, what is the highest form? Double-blind, placebo-controlled studies paid for by corrupt drug companies that conceal adverse results and bribe FDA officials into approving deadly compounds?

We will be compensated about $14 for each bottle sold, which is less than the margins enjoyed by stores. After our expenses are deducted, we should net about $9 for our efforts. I believe that most anti-pain drugs have much higher margins than that – and they have negative side effects.

I have every reason to believe that this product works well for most people with joint pain, there are no side effects, and there is an unconditional money-back guarantee. Please explain what it is that bothers you about our participation.

What media bias?

Many people do not believe that media bias is a serious problem because they think that competing news outlets offset each other. Even those who know that the same bias often is shared by all mainstream outlets have difficulty in seeing it when it happens. That’s because bias, not only alters and withholds information, if well executed it appears to be objective and fair.

This week’s news contains several stories that show this dramatically. Usually, the deception remains well hidden. Professionals rarely bungle the job so badly that the truth breaks through to the surface, but that’s the case in these reports.

New Jersey: Steven Eckel, a retired police officer, used a sledge hammer to break the window in an overheated car to rescue a baby who was locked in it while its mother was shopping. When he was interviewed by HLN, the sister station to CNN, the message on his T-shirt was blurred out so it could not be read. The message was: “2016 Trump”. Washington Post posted 2016 Sep 2 (Story) (Cached)

Google is skewing its Internet service to favor Hillary Clinton. It programmed its search-engine to filter suggestions for people who are seeking information about her health. Google says it is merely avoiding offensive or disparaging terms, but it literally has censored the news. Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google and a top stockholder, has actively campaigned for Hillary. RT 2016 Aug 31 (Story)

Dr. Drew Pinsky’s popular TV show was cancelled by CNN’s sister network, HLN, following his comments questioning Hillary Clinton’s health. It was the second time he did so. After the first time, which was in January, he was pressured into issuing a formal apology. This time, his show was cancelled. RT 2016 Aug 29 (Story)

Twin Falls, Idaho: The rape of a five-year-old child by three refugees did not result in arrests until more than two weeks had passed. Federal officials are not happy about news coverage of this incident, presumably because it might create public opposition to the immigration program currently underway.

A false report of gunshots at Los Angeles International Airport started a stampede by terrified airline customers all over the airport, even in restricted areas. Air traffic was grounded for hours, while police searched the area. Traffic on the nearby freeway was mired in gridlock.

At the LAX International Airport in Los Angeles, California, a man dressed as Zorro wielding a fake plastic sword drew the attention of police and was in the process of being arrested at gunpoint when word spread through social media about a ‘shooter’ at LAX. Another odd event took place in Prague last week in which phony jihadists wearing masks, waving ISIS flags, and carrying fake but real looking sub-machine guns carried out a fake terror attack. The fact that these men were not killed by police suggests that it may have been a drill. It is possible that all of these incidents are experiments by authorities to gauge public reaction and to test the ability of social media to generate panic and other mob reactions.

ANALYSIS

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.

This is a case study of how to become successful in American business using political leverage. Hamdi Ulukaya is a Turkish citizen who sits on the board of the New York Federal Reserve. He borrowed $800,000 from the US government to establish the Chobani Greek Yogurt company and then became a patron of politicians and lobbyists connected with the FDA. Using this influence, he obtained contracts to get his yogurt in public schools through the Michelle Obama lunch program. That is just the beginning. His involvement with migrant workers in Twin Falls, Idaho, is disturbing. InfoWars 2016 Aug 31 (Story)

Barbara Honegger offers convincing evidence that there were multiple explosions at the Pentagon during the attack on 9/11. This evidence answers questions such as why the Pentagon lawn was severely damaged in some photos but looked like a manicured golf course in others. She reinforces the proposition that the primary damage was not caused by a Boeing-757 but by a drone, a helicopter, and multiple demolition charges inside the building. Be aware, however, that she is selective in considering who had sufficient motive to mastermind the crime. She identifies the Israeli government and its agents in the US, because the US predictably responded by attacking Israel’s historic enemies. However, she ignores other groups that also benefitted from the war in the Middle East which followed 9/11. They include CFR Neocons (who seek to expand domestic government power in the name of national security) and the military-industrial complex (which seeks ever expanding budgets and profits from waging perpetual war). Still, Honegger’s revelations relating to the attack itself are startling. Behind the Smoke Curtain posted 2016 Aug 30 (Story)

A minister decided that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his Sunday sermon. Four worms were placed into four separate jars.

The first worm was put into a container of alcohol. The second worm was put into a container of cigarette smoke. The third was put into a container of chocolate syrup. The fourth was put into a container of good clean soil.

At the conclusion of the sermon, the minister reported the following results: The first worm in alcohol: Dead. The second worm in cigarette smoke: Dead. Third worm in chocolate syrup: Dead. Fourth worm in good clean soil: Alive.

So the minister asked the congregation, “What did you learn from this demonstration?” Maxine was sitting in the back, quickly raised her hand, and said:

“As long as you drink, smoke, and eat chocolate, you won’t have worms!”

HOW MANY MISTAKES ARE ALLOWED?
2016 Sept 2 from James Mayton
Hello Mr. Griffin.
I was watching a clip off of YouTube last night where some idiot tried to make communism / socialism (according to Marx) a logical thing. I presume that you know Marx was a dead-beat and had to have Engels pay the debts that Marx owed?

Seems like several of the people involved in communism / socialism were caught flat-footed when the “revolution of the proletariat” (brought by the money trusts) happened in Russia. Marx was in Great Britain. Lenin was in Sweden or Switzerland, and Trotsky was in the US or Canada. Marx believed that the “revolution” would happen in Great Britain. How many mistakes was this guy allowed – and people still followed his banner? IDIOTS!

You and your team keep up the good work!

HILLARY DISQUALIFIED FROM PRESIDENCY
2016 Sep 1 from Rocknjack
Former United States Attorney General Michael Mukasey told MSNBC that, not only is Hillary Clinton’s private email server illegal, it “disqualifies” her from holding any federal office. He cited federal law, Title 18. Section 2071, which says:

“(a) Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

“(b) Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.”

Shouldn’t voters know that? The media won’t tell them. So it’s up to us.

REMOVE LINCOLN FROM QUOTES SECTION?
2016 Aug 29 from Scott Williams
Dear Mr. Griffin,
Please do not use any quotes from the War Monger Lincoln. He is the antithesis of what Freedom is. This diabolical monster caused the death of approximately a million people because he did not believe in what Southerners like George Washington, Patrick Henry, and many other stood for. It is shameful to see a usurper like Lincoln in your publication. Thank you.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Scott.
Thanks for your thoughts on using quotes from Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln was far from an ideal political figure and probably could be considered as the destroyer of the principle of state supremacy in the American Republic. Yet, some of his thoughts and pronouncements were quite worthy of note. I feel that this is much like using quotes from Winston Churchill, which most people would approve, in spite of the fact that he was a conspirator in drawing the United States into World War II and was directly involved in the plot to sink the Lusitania as a means to generate American support for the war. JFK also has some skeletons in the closet, as do Martin Luther King and many other public figures. I feel that trying to reserve our quotation section only for those who are above reproach would be a fruitless task. We prefer to let the wisdom of each commentary stand on its own. I hope you agree with this approach. Thanks for caring about such things and for taking the time to let us know your thoughts.
