With more than 60 per cent of the world’s proven oil and gas reserves located in the Middle East, this region is the ultimate key to continuing US global power. It was for this reason that the former US secretary of state James Baker candidly revealed in an interview on America’s PBS Frontline programme in mid-October 2001 that Washington would always be ready and willing, as a matter of national security, to go to war in order to protect its ally Saudi Arabia and the other oil-rich Arab allies. The despotic, dictatorial nature of these regimes is a virtue, not a vice, for guaranteed American oil supply and the continued dominance of the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency.
This is why today Washington remains silent on the crackdown by the House of Saud against pro-democracy protests in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. It is also the reason why Washington is allied with the Sunni dictatorships of Saudi Arabia and Qatar in the covert campaign for regime change against perceived recalcitrant governments in Syria and Iran, as it did in Libya with the overthrow and murder of Muammar Gaddafi. http://bit.ly/M4AzZm |

For some odd reason I keep thinking of Saddams trial. The one that wasn't on TV. I bet it would have been far more interesting than Judge Judy's show. All the poor public saw was the verdict. Funny how the most important issues of the day are never really discussed in our corporate media. Ask David Rockefeller |

Remember what happened last time we sat around and did nothing? Oh Yea, Japan bombed us. I believe that America was well aware of the impending attack. I believe that Japan Had surrendered with conditions and refused by America I believe it suited America to refuse the conditional surrender as they wanted to Test yes [Test} The Two Types of Atomic Bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki ......after all why have these Atomic bombs and never get to test them on Real Human Beings. America To-day have enough Nuclear Bombs to Destroy several Planets....WHY Do you ask the same of comrade Putin? Russia has more BTW.. What we need is a Nuclear Free World Including Iran...who do not have Nuclear |

Western governments and mainstream media have admitted that Al Qaeda is fighting against the secular Syrian government, and that the West is supporting the Syrian opposition … which is helping Al Qaeda. Al Qaeda Is Not “Benefitting From” the Syrian Uprising … It’s CAUSING It Posted on July 31, 2012 by WashingtonsBlog No, Terrorists Are Not Just Showing Up to “Exploit” the Chaos The mainstream media admits that Al Qaeda is fighting against the Syrian government. The Syrian opposition is largely comprised of Al Qaeda terrorists. See this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this and this. However, the pro-war media says that Al Qaeda is simply capitalizing on the chaos created by the civil war between the people and the government. But the top U.S. intelligence official has said that the terrorist bombings in Syria are the work of Al Qaeda: Bombing attacks in Damascus and Aleppo since December “had all the earmarks of an al-Qaeda-like attack,” James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence, told the Senate Armed Services Committee. “And so we believe al-Qaeda in Iraq is extending its reach into Syria,” he said. His comments confirmed earlier reports that US officials suspected al-Qaeda’s hand in the bombings and follows a recent video message from al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri in which he endorses the uprising against Assad’s rule. A new report out of the RAND Corporation confirms that since December: Al Qaeda has conducted roughly two dozen attacks, primarily against Syrian security service targets. Virtually all have been suicide attacks and car bombings, and they have resulted in more than 200 deaths and 1,000 injuries. The U.S. intelligence chief also notes that Al Qaeda’s top leader endorses jihad against the Syrian government: His comments confirmed earlier reports that US officials suspected al-Qaeda’s hand in the bombings and follows a recent video message from al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri in which he endorses the uprising against Assad’s rule. And see this. In fact, terrorists have been responsible for much of the violence inside Syria for many months. For example, according to the large German newspaper FAZ, those massacred in Hama were on the same side as Syrian leader Assad. Outside monitors have confirmed that the situation on the ground is much different than it is being portrayed in the Western media. So Al Qaeda is not “capitalizing” on the violence … they are the ones who have been doing most of the violence for many months. And the U.S. has been arming the Syrian opposition since 2006, even though Secretary of State Clinton admits that will help Al Qaeda. American government officials and corporate media are applauding Al Qaeda attacks in Syria. See this, this and this. Rather than condemning suicide terrorist attacks, they simply say Al Qaeda’s bombings show that the “window is closing” for Assad, and he should give up power. (Samples here, here and here – the latter tweeted by U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice right after an Al Qaeda bomb attack.) The U.S. government has been consistently planning regime change in Syria and Libya for 20 years, and dreamed of regime change – using false flag terror – for 50 years. http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2012/07/al-qaeda-is-not-benefitting-from-the-syrian-uprising-it-is-causing-it.html |

Ok so lets see if I have this right. It wasn't Afghanistan that we invaded. It Wasn't Iraq that we invaded. It was Iran that we still wish to invade that did 911. I got it now. The last of The Seven in Five |

America should be the good guys who help small countries. And by and large we ARE the good guys who help smaller countries and combat terrorism and tyranny. We should all be proud of our record. It is not perfect but no one is perfect. The US is still the finest example of Governance, freedom and democracy in the world! Apparently you aren't aware of the many civilians were killed including women and children when we bombed the hell out of Iraq. Apparently you are unaware of what Saddam was doing He sure as hell wasn't doing anything to Americans...He was their friend at one stage.....ask Donald Rumsfeld Oh and BTW the WMD that he possessed at one stage ....Guess who supplied them. Thousand of Innocent Iraqis Murdered ...what for? Murdering for Corporations...... Did I hear someone say America The Best Example of Democracy? Poor Obama has to Apologize for Americas Past and He is getting slated for it. At least David Cameron Apologized to the Irish People for The Complicity of The British Government, All that is required is an Apology and The World Can Settle Down To A New Order |

Did not Hussein promise transparency? I thought Saddam was dead? Hussein O'bama I knew who you were talking about I could have called him O'buttma-bin-lie'n but, I didn't. Where is his transparency regarding the topic? His minders are the same as GWB so the game goes on. The Cabal call the shots whoever becomes POTUS. He who pays the Piper Calls The Tune...Very Simple Really Its The Piper who has to be called out I have this very faint hope that Obama when reelected will do the right thing and put America back on track. By your statement, are you saying you have the same respect for Hussein as you have for baby Bush? I didn't say I had respect for either. Thing is I would exempt GWW and Lay The full blame with Cheney and Rumsfeld. When Obama gets reelected and Makes Peace with Iran and settles The Palestinian Injustice....Then he and America will have earned The Worlds Respect. We will have to wait and hope. |

Can anyone shed light on where the 6Billion Dollars is coming from? Yeh, since Al Qaeda is a pure fiction invented by the CIA. And Bin Laden is dead. That judge is on drugs. The move is considered a symbolic gesture without expectation of collection of penalties for the relatives. Symbolic of what? Lies? Propaganda in support of the official account of 9-11 that has not been proven? There is no credible evidence of any of it. If you want to understand the symbolism, talk to family members of 911 victims....Although I strongly empathize with them, they can answer your question far better than I... It was a hollow meaningless gesture in support of a atrocious lie. Very Hollow and Totally Meaningless. Sorry to have to say it but. Only In America |

That's Islam! And we are expected to tolerate that faith. Too bad we cannot abduct her husband and horrifically beat HIM to death in front of a lot of people and maybe Youtube his beating! Eye for an eye here! You have just painted all of Islam with the same brush and that does not apply to any country or religion. As regard the husband ...you can have him for a day and do what you like with him...you alone with him...OK |

You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast Yonder stands your orphan with his gun Crying like a fire in the sun Look out the saints are comin' through And it's all over now, Baby Blue. The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense Take what you have gathered from coincidence The empty handed painter from your streets Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets This sky, too, is folding under you And it's all over now, Baby Blue. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58-DCkdGL5s&list=PLC70C6DAFAD3E698D&feature=mh_lolz |
