Based on the history of lies preceding the unlawful US armed attack and invasion of Iraq, Americans have little time to stop a lie-based US armed attack of Iran. Official US policy allows first-strike use of nuclear weapons based upon these lies. -CBS printed obvious lies of President Obama that are fully refuted by all International Atomic Energy Agency reports that ALL of Iran’s nuclear material is fully accountable for peaceful and legal use for energy and medical isotopes. Mr. Obama’s lies are also fully refuted by the current unanimous agreement of all 16 US intelligence agencies published in their current National Intelligence Estimate (NIE). The documentation for the two above facts is here. AWIP: Obama Claims ‘All Evidence’ Supports Allegations Iran Developing Nukes.

Forty cents on the dollar, and that's stretching it. For Fed clowns Bernanke and Geithner, transparency is not unlike sandpaper to their nut sack. When the crisis began with Bear Stearns in March of '08, Bernanke and Geithner likely never imagined they would be eventually forced to disclose the details of their dirty work. Yesterday was a victory for the good guys, but that doesn't mean you're going to like what you read.

Some of the world's most baffling social problems, says Peter Eigen, can be traced to systematic, pervasive government corruption, hand-in-glove with global companies. At TEDxBerlin, Eigen describes the thrilling counter-attack led by his organization Transparency International.

Where do Indian nations go when United States' courts have failed them, and justice is unattainable? The Haudenosaunee Confederacy – the oldest continuous democratic government in North America - has long argued that Indian nations should not expect to win justice from colonizing governments, and instead must act as sovereign nations taking their quest for justice to the United Nations and its human rights mechanisms. AWIP/Stephen Lendman: China's Documentation of US Human Rights Abuses.

The former head of the UN’s chief nuclear agency, Mohammed ElBaradei, said in an interview with the British newspaper Guardian Wednesday that those who launched the war in Iraq were responsible for killing a million innocent people and could be held accountable under international law. He was clearly referring to US President George Bush, British Prime Minister Tony Blair, and their top military and security aides.

It was his first interview with an international publication since ElBaradei returned to his native Egypt, after a decade heading the International Atomic Energy Agency, where he won the Nobel Peace Prize, in large measure because of his opposition to the efforts by the Bush administration to use concocted charges about "weapons of mass destruction" as an all-purpose pretext for military intervention throughout the Middle East.

These are the 6 media companies that exist today. There used to be 88. These 6 all get their news from Reuters and the Associated Press. Reuters owns the AP and Rothschilds own Reuters.

Turns out that the naked body scanners CAN save images after all. This was confirmed in a letter sent to the Chairman of the Committee on Homeland Security, at the same time the government claimed the machines are safe and cannot save images. In fact, this ability is a government requirement.

As it turns out, the machines can save images. This was confirmed in a letter sent to Rep. Bennie G.

“TSA requires AIT machines to have the capability to retain and export imagines (sic) only for testing, training, and evaluation purposes,” states a TSA letter dated February 24, 2010 and signed by Gale D. Rossides, Acting Administrator.

[Editor's Comment:] And if they can do so, they will do so, meaning, the image of your naked body will be studied, transmitted & stored and studied again (and again). It may be sold ("leaked") and may even end up in the porn market. -Are you comfortable with that?]

The man known throughout South African for his distinctive two-hands-in-the-air (like he jus' don' care) stance, white supremacist, Eugene Terreblanche, died today.

Abuse is also common in the quasi-independent religious orders. Note: I strongly believe in freedom of religion. This is in no way meant as an attack on the Mormon faith, only the decision by clergy to cover up for pedophiles.

Abu Zubaydah was the first "high-value" detainee who was tortured, as the U.S. claimed he was a top Al Qaeda terrorist who knew a lot about 9/11. He was waterboarded at least 83 times in August 2002 alone. In fact, Abu Zubaydah was one of the main sources of information for the 9/11 report. Never mind that he was literally crazy.

This is the last interview prior to his sudden disappearance in 1998. LATEST UPDATE: Chip’s tortured body was reported to have washed up on a beach in Panama in early 2007.

While torture and aggressive war may have been the most serious crimes which the Bush administration committed, its warrantless eavesdropping on American citizens was its clearest and most undeniable lawbreaking. Federal District Judge Vaughn Walker yesterday became the third federal judge -- out of three who have considered the question -- to find that Bush's warrantless eavesdropping program was illegal (the other two are District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor and 6th Circuit Appellate Judge Ronald Gilman who, on appeal from Judge Taylor's decision, in dissent reached the merits of that question [unlike the two judges in the majority who reversed the decision on technical "standing" grounds] and adopted Taylor's conclusion that the NSA program was illegal).
