News: We would like to thank and hug every one of you for making this video Youtube video of the year!

-----------------------------------------------
Sometimes, a hug is all that we need. Free Hugs is the real life controversial story of Juan Mann, a man whose sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger put a smile on their face.

In this age of social-disconnection most all of us lack that simple human touch from another, the effects of the Free Hugs Campaign are now felt around the globe.

As this simple gesture of kindness and hope spread across the city, police and officials ordered the Free Hugs Campaign BANNED. What we then witnessed was the true spirit of humanity as people came together in what can only be described as something awe inspiring.

In the spirit of the Free Hugs Campaign please pass this video to a friend and HUG a stranger! After all, you CAN make a difference.

Music by Sick Puppies. Their album was release on April 3rd and is titled "Dressed Up As Life". http://sickpuppies.net

Propaganda - Memories of darker times...

Legendary tune, a reminder of the darker times. there was no aggression except on the part of the officers, who we're like gorilla gestapo with an attitude problem.



"What people having fun for free? How dare they we must ban this immediately."



Obviously the movement building within it, with shades of the 60's love revolution running throughout it, had an effect on how "The Man" dealt with it. Anything built out of love instead of fear is a threat to them and the world they wish to create.



I owe a lot to the Rave scene, It had a big hand in my awakening, the corrupt government handling of nearly everything to do with it and the numerous unlawful regulations they imposed to attempt to tear the heart out of it failed and sent it further still underground, leaving many with a real distaste for authority of any flavor and making it that much harder to stamp out in the process.



We are still here, and are definitely not going anywhere. So here it is, a salute to all those who still keep the spirit alive in whatever way they can.



Remember there is only one rule:



"OPEN YOUR MIND"

Go back to bed America, we're in Control

"Go back to bed america your government is in control, we hold depopulation, er I mean our, er I mean your best interests at heart."



In case you haven't already realized Obama is out to destroy America in any way he can, with that in mind are you really gonna listen to this joker?



Be safe, Be prepared and don't pay any attention to what the Main stream media says and you will likely be fine.



Our thoughts are with you.

Obama
In a truly incredible example of the complete disregard for the health and safety of the American people, President Obama today told Americans that they should NOT prepare for radiation from the possible meltdown of the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan. His exact quote: "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and public health experts do not recommend people in the U.S. take precautionary measures beyond staying informed."
In other words, Americans should do nothing other than listen to their government. Don't buy potassium iodide pills (even though the U.S. Surgeon General has already urged people to do so), don't fuel up your automobiles in case you need to evacuate California, don't store some extra food and water... basically, don't worry! There's no problem! Obama says so!
In all my years of looking at the bizarre and sometimes idiotic rants of the "do not prepare" crowd (the Pollyannas of the world), I never imagined hearing the President of the United States telling people to do nothing while the nation stands on the verge of being hit with radioactive fallout from an increasingly likely nuclear meltdown event. This isn't just a lack of leadership, in my opinion: It's a cowardly act and a betrayal of the health and safety of the American people.

While Obama focuses on March Madness basketball, Fukushima burns, threatening to release a massive amount of radiation directly into the atmosphere. The United States has already confirmed that low levels of radiation will reach California by Friday (http://www.naturalnews.com/031733_r...). The coolant fuels have run dry in at least one reactor (http://www.naturalnews.com/031734_n...), meaning that the release of enormous amounts of radiation from spent fuel rods is now imminent. Last-ditch rescue efforts are underway, and while we can hope and pray that they are effective, it seems absolutely bewildering that at this moment, Obama would be telling Americans to effectively "do nothing."

Smart people will prepare anyway

Earlier today, I published a list of urgent action items for Americans and Canadians living on the western edge of North America (http://www.naturalnews.com/031731_r...). The same advice applies to those living in Hawaii, too: Get prepared now, just in case the Fukushima plant releases a massive amount of radiation into the air!

President Obama believes your action list should contain exactly one item: 1) Listen to your government and nothing else.

To me, that sounds like a recipe for suicide. But I suppose it's up to each person to decide whom they want to believe. If the meltdown happens and the radiation cloud heads into California, many of those who listened to Obama could die of cancer from radiation exposure. What an incredible legacy for a President to leave in the history books.

Get a kit. Make a plan. No, wait... don't do any of that!

Whatever happened to the government's own message to be prepared? Even the www.Ready.gov website run by the federal government says, "Get a kit. Make a plan. Be informed."

Obama apparently thinks that's two steps too many. Skip the kit. Screw the plan. Just listen to your government!

Incredible. I have never seen such a dangerous example of the complete and utter failure of leadership in America.

Should a meltdown actually occur, I can only say good luck to all those Americans who follow this man to their own graves.

Oh, and by the way, it's no surprise to hear the CDC is also fully supportive of this "do nothing" preparedness plan. This is the same agency that still refuses to tell people to take vitamin D supplements to prevent outbreaks of infectious disease. It is truly breathtaking to witness the outright betrayal of the American people taking place in Washington right now.

The Awakening - A Truth To Be Heard. 11:11

What you can't see does exist, whether or not you choose to accept it.



There is a mass awakening under way, we have become complacent in our thinking, apathy has become a way of life for many. This isn't how it is supposed to be and you know it.



Ask yourself what you can do to change the status quo, instead of talking about it and waiting for someone else to do it for you. Peaceful non-compliance is something they cannot handle, stop paying for credit cards stop paying taxes knowing it funds war crimes and murder, buy as many goods as you can second hand, buy your food from farmers markets when possible. Cease buying useless crap you know you don't need that will never fill that void inside left by absence of spirit, Stop giving your money to corporations that do nothing but rape and pillage this planet for profit. Stop watching television and playing and paying for video games and being party to your own programming.



Open up your heart again, become a conscious part of this reality once more and realize what you always were meant to be, infinite potential.



"Rise like lions after slumber

In unvanquishable number.

Shake your chains to earth like dew.

Which in sleep has fallen on you.

Ye are many -- they are few."

Herbs being made illegal in april, Urgent action needed

I'm porting this from another site as it is something close to my heart and something urgent action is needed on.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Herbal supplements used for our own healthcare are about to be made illegal in april 2011.






I put this thread on other parts of this forum, so i guess it should go under the 'what we can do' section. because this needs action. we can write to our mep's and support the alliance for natural health who are the only people i know of that are willing to try and save our human rights within natural law.






you can find them here...






http://www.anh-europe.org/






from anh website...






We know how much you can achieve when there is a united front – we just need you to stand with us!






•THMPD background


•Important documents


•ANH THMPD video


•Why a legal challenge?


•Grounds for legal challenge


•Related reading






After April 2011, many herbal products and food supplements containing herbs will become ILLEGAL. This is because of changes in law at a European level. On 30 April 2011 a European Directive, known as the Traditional Herbal Medicinal Products Directive (THMPD) comes fully into force. After this time, only herbal medicines that have been registered under the scheme will be available EU-wide. For a wide range of herbal products, especially those from non-European traditions such as Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine, the requirements of the scheme are either impossible to meet or are prohibitively expensive. In many cases, both constraints apply so the result is that virtually no herbal medicines from these traditions have been registered. These products will effectively be banned after April 2011. The ban will also effect medicinal herbs in food supplements, which are used by many thousands of people across Europe to help maintain their health.






We have developed a comprehensive 3-initiative strategy to address these issues, along with our collaborators at the European Benefyt Foundation.






We urgently need help from the public, practitioners and companies on the legal challenge we are in the process of preparing. We aim to challenge the EU Directive (THMPD) based on the fact that it is disproportionate, non-transparent and discriminatory. We need to raise £90,000 (€102,240) to fund legal costs for the first stage of our challenge, which will be a judicial review in the UK High Court. We then aim to have our case expedited to the European Court of Justice, which will require further funding.






Please help us to raise awareness of the action we are taking to protect the rights of Europeans to use herbs. And if you use herbs, please donate generously to enable us to fund this greatly needed legal action!!! (Note: The action we are taking does not currently include a petition).






-------------------------------------------------------------------











As you can see the situation in Europe is becoming dire and more action and support is needed in trying to hold back the tide of evil and darkness. Please help in anyway you can as we need your support in these trying times.

Transcendence - The Real Re-Awakening From The Matrix - Rodney Paradox

    The true awakening is a spiritual one, knowledge is good but knowing is better and when we are ready we won't need guns, our numbers will be too great and they know it, it terrifies them, they are now scared of us. Things have changed the rules are no longer the same I don't just think this, I now know it to be true, I have felt it. The whole planet is engaged in a monumental shift. We are here balanced upon the tipping point and the wind is in our favour.



    Don't lose heart when all closes in around us, they do this because they are getting desperate and frightened and have become worthy of our pity, the world is about to change in a way that will make them as redundant as a flame-proof candle.



    At one time they were our protectors and teachers and now they are no longer needed they are fighting to hold onto their power. With every move they make they awaken more people instead of laying them to rest in a sound slumber as they would have it. Don't give in to hate, fear and suffering as they feed on this, this doesn't mean you can't get angry or be outraged this is normal and healthy when you have been wronged but you must channel these powerful emotions correctly or they will consume you as it has done them.



    It is time to set aside our petty differences of race, class and religion and move forward as one species.

"Everybody wants to be transformed, but no-one wants to change"

"Everybody wants to be transformed, but no-one wants to change"


    Something that has particular meaning at this time.


    Well It's after new year, and as is traditional I've been going through changes and am looking into subject that make the conspiracy stuff look simple by comparison, things have been happening for a little while but now I'm resolved to it, new year is a good a time as any to make firm decisions right?

    I am set upon the path now laid out before me, I have decided to go into Website design and html programming, as I have found that I have some aptitude for it. Eventually with the aim of designing my own site from scratch, I have decided to go vegetarian or at least gives it a shot. This isn't for the reasons that you might expect, it has more to do with my evolving spiritual (not religious) beliefs, I have achieved a connection of some description and while I don't pretend to understand it I am willing to go with it and so am doing everything within my power to encourage it to grow. I have managed to tame my ego to the point where I can just be open with people and not care what they think, that does not mean I will be rude to them, I will give their view fair consideration and take from it what I find to be of value. Even the negative.


    I have always had an interest in Quantum Physics, particularly quantum entanglement and how it relates to conciousness, so don't be surprised if you see stuff like that turning up here. If you wonder what that is I recommend watching this. I have used it many times as an introduction for people just getting into the subject.




    Crazy stuff isn't it?


    I am familiar enough with it now that, I am starting to have my own theories about it, though they are are a work in progress so I shall keep them to myself for now


    I may have to set up a different page for some of the newer stuff eventually, but for now it might end up here. The screen for my knackered laptop is due to arrive soon and once I get that fixed, I will no longer be restricted by what I can do on this relatively slow machine and also will not have to borrow anymore which is a definite plus. I have a feeling this be a good year for me so look out world I'm coming for you.

White House Gives Go-ahead For Elitists to Control DNA

If you thought GM food was horrifying, you haven't seen anything yet.



Nothing more to add really, just thought this should get much more exposure.



Be sure to follow all links.



An excellent well researched article as always.

Amplify’d from www.activistpost.com
It is official: in the name of "clean energy, pollution control and medicine," the White House is prepared to let scientists, spearheaded by the J. Craig Venter Institute, "manipulate DNA of organisms to forge new life forms," according to a recent AFP article.



The Orwellian language used by Barack Obama's Presidential Commission For The Study of Bioethical Issues is a study in wordiness, misdirection, and obfuscation that is typical when trying to cover up the true intent.  For example, on one hand the Commission acknowledges that the J. Craig Venter Institute has found the ability to forge new life forms, but also states that Venter's team didn't create life, since the work primarily involved altering an already existing life form.



Since we won't get straight truth from the mainstream media, science, or the government, it is better advised to look at who Craig Venter is, and what public statements have been issued about this agenda that literally could transform the human race from a naturally evolving species into a manipulated computer code.





As far back as 2003, a BBC article titled Warning on Gene 'ID Cards' cited Craig Venter as a leading scientist in gene mapping who, at the time, was offering the "very rich" a chance to buy their map for $710,000.  This sets up, in effect, a division of gene class where elites would have access to potentially life-saving information, while the underclass could be discriminated against by insurance companies and employers.  The short article concludes with an even more critical warning by Dr. Helen Wallace of GeneWatch that, "What we could end up with is a massive DNA database by the back door."  And this was almost 8 years ago.



In the intervening time, the possible misuse of such a database became clear in 2006 when collaboration between the  J. Craig Venter Institute and Google resulted in a ZDNet article titled Google Accused of Bio-Piracy.  Plans were revealed to "create a searchable online database of all the genes on the planet."  The source of this story came from a Pulitzer Prize winner, David Vise, but to this day it seems that neither the J. Craig Venter Institute, nor Google have acknowledged any ongoing partnership.



The Institute announced in May of this year that it finally had created the first self-replicating, synthetic bacterial cell, dubbed Synthia by the media.  Most people probably concluded that this was a rather innocuous, self-promoting announcement designed to receive funding.  However, if one looks deeper into this press release, one should notice the words "synthetic genome."  This is an admission that goes beyond simply altering an existing life form, as the Institute asserts, but illustrates the ability to replicate the entirety of an organism's hereditary information.



The technical breakdown of this initiative is exceedingly important, but is better left to experts in the field.  Regardless, the assertions of the J. Craig Venter Institute have found the "software of life" are being taken seriously by the White House at a time when revelations about how computing, medicine, technology, and the police state are converging on an almost daily basis.  In just the past month, the following stories made headlines:

  • Lawsuits have been filed in Austin, TX by parents who have discovered that DNA had been secretly taken from babies and sold to pharmaceutical companies and/or the Armed Forces for genetic research as far back as 2002.

  • Unions have started to implement biometric ID "threat assessment" cards at the behest of Homeland Security in a "cooperative effort between public and private authorities."

  • Iris scan technology is being used by NYC law enforcement to create a biometric database in homage to Minority Report

  • GM Mosquitoes have been released in the Cayman Islands to combat Dengue fever, while noted depopulation advocate, Bill Gates, has been funding the initiative.

  • Connections have been made between the above-mentioned Dengue fever mosquito release to the history of CIA bioweapons research, as well as various NGOs and Globalist think tanks that will apply the funding of The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation toward "flying vaccines" as a solution to the "problem" of viruses. 

It is worth adding that part of the stated purpose of the first artificial cell, Synthia, is "faster vaccine production."



The flowery language that comes from elite circles about Utopian equality ring empty in the face of their documented history of discriminatory programs and depopulation initiatives.  Giving over our blood, and now our life force, to elites who long ago distanced themselves from the concerns of the average man and woman does not bode well for the health of humanity.

Fluoride in Water Linked to Lower IQ in Children

Old news to those of us in the know, but some people need to be reminded that, this is NOT a medicine but rather A HIGHLY POTENT NEURO-TOXIN we are talking about here.



To get an idea just how dangerous this toxic chemical can be look up the ingredients for rat poison.



Even IF (and it is not) it was a beneficial medicine what right do they have to force medicate people without their consent?

Amplify’d from www.prnewswire.com
Exposure to fluoride may lower children's intelligence says a study pre-published in Environmental Health Perspectives, a publication of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (online December 17, 2010). 

Fluoride is added to 70% of U.S. public drinking water supplies.

ccording to Paul Connett, Ph.D., director of the Fluoride Action Network, "This is the 24th study that has found this association, but this study is stronger than the rest because the authors have controlled for key confounding variables and in addition to correlating lowered IQ with levels of fluoride in the water, the authors found a correlation between lowered IQ and fluoride levels in children's blood. This brings us closer to a cause and effect relationship between fluoride exposure and brain damage in children."





"What is also striking is that the levels of the fluoride in the community where the lowered IQs were recorded were lower than the EPA's so-called 'safe' drinking water standard for fluoride of 4 ppm and far too close for comfort to the levels used in artificial fluoridation programs (0.7 – 1.2 ppm)," says Connett.





In this study, 512 children aged 8-13 years in two Chinese villages were studied and tested – Wamaio with an average of 2.47 mg/L water fluoride (range 0.57-4.50 mg/L) and Xinhuai averaging 0.36 mg/L (range 0.18-0.76 mg/L).





The authors eliminated both lead exposure and iodine deficiency as possible causes for the lowered IQs. They also excluded any children who had a history of brain disease or head injury and none drank brick tea, known to contain high fluoride levels. Neither village is exposed to fluoride pollution from burning coal or other industrial sources.





About 28% of the children in the low-fluoride area scored as bright, normal or higher intelligence compared to only 8% in the "high" fluoride area of Wamaio.





In the high-fluoride city, 15% had scores indicating mental retardation and only 6% in the low-fluoride city. 





The study authors write: "In this study we found a significant dose-response relation between fluoride level in serum and children's IQ."





In addition to this study, and the 23 other IQ studies, there have been over 100 animal studies linking fluoride to brain damage (all the IQ and animal brain studies are listed in Appendix 1 in The Case Against Fluoride available online at http://fluoridealert.org/caseagainstfluoride.appendices.html).





One of the earliest animal studies of fluoride's impact on the brain was published in the U.S. This study by Mullenix et. al (1995) led to the firing of the lead author by the Forsyth Dental Center. "This sent a clear message to other researchers in the U.S. that it was not good for their careers to look into the health effects of fluoride – particularly on the brain," says Connett.





Connett adds, "The result is that while the issue of fluoride's impact on IQ is being aggressively pursued around the world, practically no work has been done in the U.S. or other fluoridating countries to repeat their findings. Sadly, health agencies in fluoridated countries seem to be more intent on protecting the fluoridation program than protecting children's brains."





When the National Research Council of the National Academies reviewed this topic in their 507-page report "Fluoride in Drinking Water: A Review of EPA's Standards" published in 2006, only 5 of the 24 IQ studies were available in English. Even so the panel found the link between fluoride exposure and lowered IQ both consistent and "plausible."  





According to Tara Blank, Ph.D., the Science and Health Officer for the Fluoride Action Network, "This should be the study that finally ends water fluoridation. Millions of American children are being exposed unnecessarily to this neurotoxin on a daily basis. Who in their right minds would risk lowering their child's intelligence in order to reduce a small amount of tooth decay, for which the evidence is very weak."

Nablus: Israel gives villagers 24 hours to hit the road before leveling Tana

Imagine If this was your home, your family, your friend and neighbours



Israel is always screaming about its right to exist, but what about the the rights of the people who have lived on that land long before the apartheid dominion ever gained a foothold and started what amounts to genocide, in a land that they have no lawful claim to, these people (Rothschild Zionists) are sick and go to sickening lengths.

NABLUS, (PIC)-- Israeli authorities have given the people of the east Nablus village of Tana 24 hours to evacuate their homes before demolishing them, and threatened to confiscate their livestock when the deadline falls, sources in Nablus said.


Tana is home to more than 35 Palestinian families. They have decided to resist decisions to demolish their homes and eject them from them, calling on officials to stand by them in the face of the arbitrary ruling.


The village's population has been residing there since the 1940's. They had prior to that dwelled in caves in the rock village before they began building to house themselves and their livestock, their key source of livelihood.


The village sits seven kilometers away from Beit Fourik. Villagers have fallen victim to Jewish settlers from time to time.


Since developing the village, residents have been ordered to stop building and under threat of demolitions. The structures there have been taken down on several occasions, the last of which was about ten days ago, when 12 homes, a school, and several were wiped out. The Beit Fourik municipality leveled the entire village last month for allegedly being erected on the West Bank's Area C, a region placed under Israeli security control after the Oslo Accords.


The village has a land area of about 250 acres and is located near the Jewish settlement of Mahura, which was founded in 1969. Israel has siezed more than 2,500 acres of the land surrounding Beit Fourik for the interest of settlers there.

Pope’s child porn 'normal' claim sparks outrage among victims

One can expect nothing less from this man.



I really could let rip on this horrifying statement but I could do no better than to simply post the following video.



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPmyry0yaQE

The Pope

Victims of clerical sex abuse have reacted furiously to Pope Benedict's claim
yesterday that paedophilia wasn't considered an “absolute evil” as recently
as the 1970s.



In his traditional Christmas address yesterday to cardinals and officials
working in Rome, Pope Benedict XVI also claimed that child pornography was
increasingly considered “normal” by society.



“In the 1970s, paedophilia was theorised as something fully in conformity with
man and even with children,” the Pope said.



“It was maintained — even within the realm of Catholic theology — that there
is no such thing as evil in itself or good in itself. There is only a
‘better than' and a ‘worse than'. Nothing is good or bad in itself.”



The Pope said abuse revelations in 2010 reached “an unimaginable dimension”
which brought “humiliation” on the Church.



Asking how abuse exploded within the Church, the Pontiff called on senior
clerics “to repair as much as possible the injustices that occurred” and to
help victims heal through a better presentation of the Christian message.



“We cannot remain silent about the context of these times in which these
events have come to light,” he said, citing the growth of child pornography
“that seems in some way to be considered more and more normal by society” he
said.



But outraged Dublin victim Andrew Madden last night insisted that child abuse
was not considered normal in the company he kept.



Mr Madden accused the Pope of not knowing that child pornography was the
viewing of images of children being sexually abused, and should be named as
such.



He said: “That is not normal. I don't know what company the Pope has
been keeping for the past 50 years.”



Pope Benedict also said sex tourism in the Third World was “threatening an
entire generation”.



Angry abuse victims in America last night said that while some Church
officials have blamed the liberalism of the 1960s for the Church's sex abuse
scandals and cover-up catastrophes, Pope Benedict had come up with a new
theory of blaming the 1970s.



“Catholics should be embarrassed to hear their Pope talk again and again about
abuse while doing little or nothing to stop it and to mischaracterise this
heinous crisis,” said Barbara Blaine, the head of SNAP, the Survivors
Network of those Abused by Priests,



“It is fundamentally disturbing to watch a brilliant man so conveniently
misdiagnose a horrific scandal,” she added.



“The Pope insists on talking about a vague ‘broader context' he can't control,
while ignoring the clear ‘broader context' he can influence — the
long-standing and unhealthy culture of a rigid, secretive, all-male Church
hierarchy fixated on self-preservation at all costs. This is the ‘context’
that matters.”



The latest controversy comes as the German magazine Der Spiegel continues to
investigate the Pope's role in allowing a known paedophile priest to work
with children in the early 1980s.

Back on track.

Sorry for the lack of... well everything really..., just recovering from major computer issues that required large sums of cash to fix. something I am distinctly lacking in at the moment. I have got a working computer again, its a real dinosaur though and doesn't have any of my resources on its tiny hard drive, so bear with me as progress will be slow until I can afford to fix its (much) speedier replacement. At present I am trying to catch up on the happenings of the last months after nearly going cold turkey from internet access and having to rely on the Main Stream Media for my news (ugh), but at least it gets active again without the need to borrow. :-)

It's been a while, huh?

Hi Folks,



ok it has been some time since my last post, not through choice I might add. I have been having the worst luck with electronics equipment of all varieties going haywire, breaking or just plain going.



To date the list stands at:



1x 500GB Harddrive (virus)

1x Laptop screen (a damn expensive one at that thanks HP)

1x Desktop PC (whats up with that is anyones guess)

1x Mobile phone (???)

1x Digital Camera (just plain old fashioned missing)

1x DVD drive (desktop again)

1x Router (no wireless)




It's been an expensive few weeks and I'm starting to feel like a walking EMP attack.



But seriously, I intend to get this  thing up and running again soon, I should have a working, net ready computer within the next couple of weeks and will have the time needed to scour the web for articles etc (borrowing a one for tonight, thanks lil' bro :-) , people can be really mean over the lend of a computer but then with a track record like that I can't really blame them I suppose.) until then I bid you farewell.

US Announces Second Fake End to Iraq War

Earth to Obama, renaming troops does not equal removing them from the country, the first time seemed a bit like Vietnam syndrome (Just declare victory and go home, tail between legs.), but this is just silly they are fooling no-one.



Instead of all the lies, treachery and deception why don't they just use the real name for what is going on here...



War on 'Terra' (latin. earth) --> War on Earth.



That is how your subconscious hears it anyway, so why bother with the pretence.

It was another of those great TV moments. Embedded reports filming as the “last” brigade of American troops in Iraq cross the border into Kuwait bringing over seven years of unhappy conflict to its final, conclusive end. America was, at last, at peace.


But like so many other great TV moments, this one was a scripted fantasy, a fake exit done purely for political gain by an increasingly unpopular president trying to look like he is keeping at least one campaign promise.


It was perhaps a different sort of scripted, mythical end to the Iraq War than the last one, the May 1, 2003 “Mission Accomplished” speech of President Bush, but it was no more real, as over 50,000 US troops remain on the ground in Iraq tonight.


The “end of the war” may bring some measure of relief to the American people, but it must be something of a sombre moment for those 50,000 troops, as they continue to go into combat operations with the bulk of the American public believing, because their president told them so, that the war is over and combat operations have ended.


Officials have been pretty straightforward about what really happened, not that it has been picked up by the media, which has preferred the more pleasant narrative of a decisive military victory. Instead, the US simply “redefined” the vast majority of its combat troops as “transitional troops,” then removed a brigade that they didn’t relabel, so they could claim that was the “last one.” Even this comes with the assumption that the State Department, and a new army of contractors, will take over for years after the military operations end, assuming they ever do.


And it worked, at least for now. All is right with the world and the war is over, at least so far as anyone could tell from the TV news shows. But as violence continues to rise across Iraq, and July saw the worst violence in over two years, it will likely be difficult for the Obama Administration to keep this war a secret for much longer.

Colombia declares US base share deal unconstitutional

It will likely take the US military industrial complex quite sometime to figure out just what constitutional means, so Columbia may have quite some time before the US tries using force in the form of a false flag or H.A.A.R.P. to cause some sort of "natural" disaster to invade just as it appears is the case with Pakistan and certainly was with Haiti.



One thing is for sure the US and those that steer it, will not be happy with having their sphere of influence decreased in an area where they have always historically been strong. Should be a situation to keep an eye on.

A Colombian court has declared as unconstitutional a deal which gives US troops access to its military bases.


The constitutional court ruled the 2009 accord should be redrafted as an international treaty and sent to Colombia's Congress for approval.


The deal allows the US to use seven bases to help with operations against drug trafficking and terrorism.


But it was criticised by other Latin American countries over a concern about the rise in US influence in the region.

The US, which has supplied Colombia with more than $7bn (£4.5bn) in aid since 2000, was forced to look for a new centre for regional operations after Ecuador refused to renew the lease on its military base at Manta.


The deal agreed by former President Alvaro Uribe in October 2009 gave the US access to the bases for 10 years and would see a maximum of 800 US military personnel and 600 civilian defence contractors based in Colombia.


They would operate the US aircraft that maintain 24-hour monitoring of the region, intercepting communications and coordinating with spy satellites to protect US interests.


But the court's chief justice Mauricio Gonzalez said the deal was "an arrangement which requires the State to take on new obligations as well as an extension of previous ones".


He said that as such, it should be "handled as an international treaty, that is, subject to congressional approval".


The court did not rule on the legitimacy of the agreement itself and the ruling does not mean the US has to leave the country altogether.


The BBC's Jeremy McDermott in Bogota says the government of the new President Juan Manuel Santos has a large majority in Congress and he will be confident of getting a redrafted version of the agreement approved.


The ruling will, however, please many of Colombia's neighbours, says our correspondent, particularly President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, who had repeatedly accused the US of planning to use the bases to invade his country and seize its oil reserves.

Israeli soldier in Facebook photo controversy denies wrongdoing

This just goes to show the hideously warped mentality of the IDF, most are not fit for service, except perhaps as murderers and thugs.

Tel Aviv - A female Israeli soldier at the centre of a debate over Facebook photographs showing her with blindfolded and detained Palestinians said Tuesday she does not understand what she did wrong.

'There's no violence or intention to humiliate anyone in the pictures. I just had my picture taken with them in the background,' she told Israel Army Radio.

She said she had not intended to make a political or any other kind of statement, but posted the pictures on the popular social networking site 'out of excitement, to remember the experience.'

'It was about remembering my experiences in the army and that's it,' she said.

The soldier, recently discharged from her compulsory service, posted the photographs, apparently taken in 2008, in a Facebook album she called 'Army...best time of my life :).'

They showed her striking various poses near Palestinian detainees. Attempts to access the photographs via Facebook on Tuesday proved unsuccessful.

An Israeli military spokesman described as 'shameful' her decision to post the photographs, but the Jerusalem Post daily reported that some visitors to her Facebook page found the pictures amusing, with one even saying she looked 'super sexy.'

The Palestinian Authority said the photographs show 'the mentality of the occupier, to be proud of humiliating Palestinians.'

'There is nothing in the world that can justify this humiliation that is part of the Israeli occupation practices on daily basis,' it added.

Dr David Kelly was on a hitlist, says UN weapons expert as calls grow for full inquest

"Dr Spertzel, who is based in Washington where he continues to write and lecture on biological weapons, said: 'My concern about David Kelly's death is exactly what the doctors are saying now - that is, it's virtually impossible to commit suicide by slashing your wrist in that way.



'It just doesn't make sense. It seems to me that they [the British authorities] are intentionally ignoring all this. Something's fishy.' "

A leading UN weapons inspector last night added his voice to the growing clamour for a full inquest into the death of Dr David Kelly.

Dr Richard Spertzel claimed Dr Kelly was on a 'hitlist' in the final years of his life.

'High target': There are fresh calls for an inquest into Dr David Kelly's death

'High target': There are fresh calls for an inquest into Dr David Kelly's death

The former head of the UN Biological Section, who worked closely with Dr Kelly in Iraq in the 1990s, has written to Attorney General Dominic Grieve about the 'mysterious circumstances' surrounding the death.

The weapons inspector's body was found after he was unmasked as the source of a damaging BBC news report questioning the grounds for the Iraq war.

Officially, he took his own life.

Yesterday Dr Spertzel told the Mail that the British authorities were 'intentionally ignoring' the issue.

He believes that there is something 'fishy' and insisted that a coroner should examine the death as soon as possible.

His demands come 24 hours after nine of Britain's leading medical experts wrote an open letter to minsters demanding a full inquest.

Dr Spertzel said: 'I know that David, as well as myself and a couple of others, were on an Iraqi hitlist. In late 1997, we were told by the Russian embassy in Baghdad. I had no idea what it meant but apparently David and I were high on the priority list.'

The unanswered questions

He said he and Dr Kelly were told that they were 'numbers three and four' on the list during an inspection trip in Iraq.

'When it first happened I felt right away that David just being
associated with the work he'd been doing for the UK government would
have made him a high target,' Dr Spertzel said.

The Iraqi intelligence service did not take kindly to such action so my first reaction [to Dr Kelly's death] was "we'd better watch our backs".'

No inquest has ever been held into Dr Kelly's death. Instead, a public inquiry chaired by Lord Hutton was set up to investigate the circumstances surrounding it.

The inquiry ruled that the 59-year-old committed suicide in woodland near his Oxfordshire home in July 2003 by cutting the ulnar artery in his wrist with a blunt pruning knife.

Dr Spertzel, who is based in Washington where he continues to write and lecture on biological weapons, said: 'My concern about David Kelly's death is exactly what the doctors are saying now - that is, it's virtually impossible to commit suicide by slashing your wrist in that way.

'It just doesn't make sense. It seems to me that they [the British
authorities] are intentionally ignoring all this. Something's fishy.'

Yesterday some of the doctors who wrote to ministers demanded an end to the shroud of secrecy over the death.

They want the official post-mortem results to be made public and for witnesses to give evidence under oath.

Concern over the cause of death has been mounting after it emerged in January that all medical and scientific records, including the post-mortem report and photographs of the body, were secretly classified for 70 years in 2004.

Sir Barry Jackson, past president of the British Academy of Forensic Science and one of the doctors who wrote to ministers, said yesterday: 'In my experience from 30 years as a practising surgeon I find it difficult to agree with the cause of death as listed on his death certificate.'

Another, Dr Elizabeth Driver, a solicitor and Fellow of the Royal College of Pathologists, added: 'As a pathologist I cannot understand how Dr Kelly could have died from blood loss of a severed ulnar artery. It makes no medical sense. Little is known about the medical facts because the post-mortem has been kept secret.

'There are obvious questions which were not addressed in the inquiry.'

Doubts over the official version of his death have previously been raised by Mai Pederson, a U.S. Air Force linguist who served in Iraq with Dr Kelly's weapons inspection team.

She said he had a painful elbow injury which meant his hand was too weak to cut a steak.

He would have to have been a 'contortionist' to have killed himself in the way the Hutton Inquiry claimed, she said.

She also said he had a disorder that made it difficult to swallow pills, undermining Lord Hutton's claims that he took some himself.
