Apartheid Amnesia

   How the GOP conveniently forgot about its role in propping up a white supremacist regime On Nelson Mandela's 95th birthday, the world is celebrating the former South African president and cheering for his recovery. The U.S. Congress even managed a rare display of bipartisanship for the occasion, with members of both parties taking turns to laud Mandela as they stood in front of the Statue of Freedom in Emancipation Hall. "At times it can almost feel like we are talking about an old friend,"  said   Rep. John Boehner (R-OH.) "He never lost faith in the strength of the human spirit," added Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).Today, Nelson Mandela is a celebrated elder statesman that both Democrats and Republicans heap praise on. This wasn't always the case. When Mandela was imprisoned and struggling to end apartheid, the Republican Party -- through the policies of the Reagan administration and the work of party activists -- opposed U.S. sanctions against the wh

   WikiLeaks releases draft of highly-secretive multi-national trade deal Details of a highly secretive, multi-national trade agreement long in works have been published by WikiLeaks, and critics say there will be major repercussions for much of the modern world if it's approved in this incarnation. The anti-secrecy group published on Wednesday a 95-page excerpt taken from a recent draft of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or TPP, a NAFTA-like agreement that is expected to encompass nations representing more than 40 percent of the world’s gross domestic product when it is finally approved: the United States, Japan, Mexico, Canada, Australia, Malaysia, Chile, Singapore, Peru, Vietnam, New Zealand and Brunei. US President Barack Obama and counterparts from 11 other prospective member states have been hammering out the free trade agreement in utmost secrecy for years now, the result of which, according to the White House, would rekindle the economies of all of those involved, i

World of child cage fighting

   Kids as young as 5 fight in cages in disturbing legal sport Kids' cage fighting is an unsettling event that has children fighting in cages after their parents sign them up to do this adult-type sport. According to Fox News on Wednesday, Nov. 6, kids as young as five years old are getting in cages and punching, kicking and even putting other children into chokeholds. The  Café Mom reports on Nov. 5 that the sport is growing in leaps and bounds and parents are standing by watching their young kids fighting in this MMA and Pankration organized sport. What goes through a parent’s head to put their child in a cage to kick and be kicked and to punch and be punched? This is a question coming from a lot of folks today who don't understand why anyone would put their child in potential danger and train them to be violent. “Parents are signing kids up for MMA in droves to teach them how to defend themselves from bullies.” Boxing even looks like child’s play next to the kic

British Accuse David Miranda, Glenn Greenwald's Partner, Of 'Terrorism' British authorities claimed the domestic partner of reporter Glenn Greenwald was involved in "terrorism" when he tried to carry documents from former U.S. intelligence contractor Edward Snowden through a London airport in August, according to police and intelligence documents. Greenwald's partner, David Miranda, was detained and questioned for nine hours by British authorities at Heathrow on Aug. 18, when he landed there from Berlin to change planes for a flight to Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. After his release and return to Rio, Miranda filed a legal action against the British government, seeking the return of materials seized from him by British authorities and a judicial review of the legality of his detention. At a London court hearing this week for Miranda's lawsuit, a document called a "Ports Circulation Sheet" was read into the record. It was prepared by Scotland

America, 1984 and New World

By Paul McGuire In George Orwell’s 1984, the totalitarian state ruled by Big Brother was called “Oceania.” At the very center of the government of Oceania there were four large buildings that towered above the ghetto-like urban environment. They were enormous pyramid structures of glittering white, like the Illuminati pyramid prominently displayed on the back of the U.S. dollar with the words, Novus Ordo Seclorum, or New Order of the Ages which means New World Order. Orwell was obviously aware of the existence of the Illuminati. In 1984, the Party which was only 2% of the population was at the top of the pyramid system. Big Brother’s totalitarian government controls the masses by controlling their thoughts, ideas, and beliefs. The Ministry of Truth, which controls all news media, entertainment, education, and art are like the six major corporations that control the vast majority of the content of our news media, television, film, music, books, and social media. That is why it

The Vatican Billions

   Origin of the Current Colossal Wealth of the Catholic Church The current spectacular accumulation of wealth by the Catholic Church is a comparatively recent phenomenon. It really was initiated when the See of Peter was deprived of the Papal States by the Italians in 1870. These states included Rome itself and comprised almost one third of the Italian peninsula. It was then that she began the accumulation of riches according to the success formula of the modern industrial and financial world. The main foundation stones however, were laid by Pope Benedict XV (1914-22) during and after the First World War (1914-18). He originated today's Vatican policy that church and papal investments should not be limited by political or religious considerations, but instead should be handled purely on the basis of sound, good, concrete and profitable business. The Vatican at that time had not the liquid resources which it received a decade later from Fascist Italy, but it had sufficie

    President al-Assad: Syria will never become a western puppet state President Bashar al-Assad stressed that Syria is a sovereign country that will fight terrorism and will freely build relationships with countries in a way that best serves the interests of the Syrian people. In an interview with the Russian newspaper of Izvestia, President al-Assad stressed that "the majority of those we are fighting are Takfiris, who adopt the al-Qaeda doctrine, in addition to a small number of outlaws." On the alleged use of chemical weapons, President al-Assad said that the statements by the US administration, the West and other countries were made with disdain and blatant disrespect of their own public opinion, adding that "there isn’t a body in the world, let alone a superpower, that makes an accusation and then goes about collecting evidence to prove its point." His Excellency stressed that these accusations are completely politicised and come on the back of the
