Autonomous Drones
2012-01-29 19:21:00 From Global Guerillas: The Future of Warfare It’s an autonomous aircraft/drone that has a full weapons bay (4,500 lbs). Say that word again: autonomous. That’s the breakthrough feature. This also means: It can make its own “kill decision.” Again and again and again. Definitely ties in with the recent post, Domestic Use of Military ...

Civilization
2012-01-23 19:08:00 A few articles worth reading: European Union agrees on Iran oil embargo. — Iran ‘definitely’ closing Strait of Hormuz over EU oil embargo.

Acts Against Americans
2012-01-20 00:53:00 Worth watching: Acts Against Americans I’ve seen that roped, gagged, blindfolded, handcuffed, hooded video segment before. But there is absolutely no reason that such treatment should have been used, or still being used. Just an example of what this country is willing to do to “suspects” (remember, none were convicted of anything when this was filmed). But ... More About: Terrorism , General , Tyranny
Idiot Acts Enacted
2012-01-17 18:37:00 President Obama is being sued by Chris Hedges, Pulitzer Prize winner, over the National Defense Authorization Act: ?I suspect the real purpose of this bill is to thwart internal, domestic movements that threaten the corporate state,? says Hedges. ?The definition of a terrorist is already so amorphous under the Patriot Act that there are ...

The Life You Live
2012-01-15 09:41:00 Hey, what’s going on? Time. Always time. Trickling through your fingers. An ‘expense account’. A finite but unknowable measure of your life. An allotment of existence. Given to all. Spend it wisely. What do you do with life? With your life? We live. We exist, we breathe, we sleep, we eat, we work. We play. Probably one of the most important philosophical question of the ... More About: Life , General , Live

Food Knowledge Is Now Terrorism
2011-12-31 17:19:00 More food developments, but none of this good: A recent Freedom of Information Act request has revealed that the FBI wants what it calls ?food activists? prosecuted as terrorists, perhaps because nothing could more terrifying than exposing where our so-called food comes from and how it is manufactured.

Descent Into Fascism
2011-12-30 20:25:00 Guest post by Logarithmic: Nothing illustrates better the utter corruption of our legal system than the illegal wiretapping of American citizens without a warrant that started by Bush PRIOR to 9-11.

Change You Can Believe In
2011-12-19 00:43:00 Some common sense from Ron Paul: That stupid cunt that is champing at the bit for more war should be hauled off the stage and tarred and feathered RFN. Why is she even up there? That’s not a candidate, that’s an idiot playing up the manufactured fear of the people. No, I cannot stand that women, she’s ... More About: Politics , General , Change

9/11 Insider Blows the Whistle On WTC Attacks
2011-11-15 20:28:00 Sent in by Log, this is a recent YouTube video on the World Trade Center attacks.

2011-11-12 22:32:00 Sometimes, I want to post stuff here so that it does not get swept under the rug.

The Lies of War
2011-11-02 12:08:00 I just received the Anti-Empire report in the mail. A careful read is in order, and a “must watch” of this: “Humanitarian War in Libya: There is no evidence” The circular reference to non-documentable “crimes” as justification for war is worth paying quite close attention to.
