Permalink US Marines’ New Battalions Eyed as World Police

Police Battalions Meant to 'Quickly' Deploy Abroad. - Military police are nothing new, but the US Marines seem to be taking the concept to a new level, forming a growing number of new battalions of police meant not to police the military, but to be deployed abroad as a US-imposed police force for other nations. The new “world police” battalions are being presented as a way for the US to quickly deploy police abroad for “anti-terror” or drug war operations, and it seems they won’t necessarily be confined to places under direct US occupation, and could be sent anywhere the US has designs on imposing a police state.


Permalink Romney raises more than $1M at end of Israel trip


Romney in Israel: He who pays the piper,
calls the tune. Wearing a yarmulke signals
his submission to the Zionist entity.

More than 40 Republican Party supporters attend breakfast event in Jerusalem, pledge to donate up to $50,000 each to campaign.

US Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Monday tapped Jewish-American donors for more than $1 million, ending a trip to Israel that aimed to show he would be a better ally than President Barack Obama. After days in which Romney spoke mostly on foreign policy issues, the fundraiser returned him to more comfortable turf - the state of the US economy, which he sees as the main issue in the Nov. 6 election.

The donations did not come from Israelis but from supporters of the Republican Party who arrived in Jerusalem especially for the breakfast event. The fundraiser attracted more than 40 donors, each pledging to contribute between $25,000 and $50,000 to the Romney campaign. "What we are seeing now are policies that have not worked for the American people, and will not work," Romney said without mentioning Obama, the Democrat he has blamed for failing to substantially reduce US unemployment, now pegged at 8.2%.

This is the first time in history that a US presidential candidate raises money for his election campaign in Israel. It was the second fundraiser of Romney's trip abroad. He picked up $2 million from Americans in London, as the candidates compete for cash for the expected multi-million-dollar burst of political TV ads in the last 100 days of the campaign.


Permalink Shameless Panetta: "Assad better get the hell out"


War for Israel: Panetta wearing a yar-
mulke signals his submission to the
Zionist entity.

US Defense Sec. Leon Panetta has advice for Syria’s President Assad:

If you want to be able to protect yourself and your family, you’d better get the hell out now.

The international community has yet to reach consensus on the ongoing strife in Syria. Russia and China oppose removing Assad, saying his government is supported by a majority of Syrians.

Stephen Lendman: Major Media Admit Presence of Foreign Militants in Syria - Syria's conflict isn't an uprising, revolution or civil war. It's lawless Western aggression. It targets an independent government and its people. Doing so violates fundamental international law. Washington planned it years ago. It wants puppet leaders installed. It's Afghanistan/Iraq/Libya 2.0. America destroys nations to control and plunder them. War on humanity is waged for unchallenged global dominance. Syria is ground zero. Other targeted states come later. Proxy death squads are used. They're heavily armed, trained and directed. They reign terror on Syrian civilians. They've murdered thousands of noncombatant men, women and children. At issue is ravaging and intimidating Syria to submission.

Permalink India blackout, on second day, leaves 600 million without power

The worst blackout in India’s history spread to more than half the country Tuesday, as an electrical grid collapse in 14 states deprived at least 600 million people of power, many for a second day. - The blackout, the largest in global history by the number of people affected, dramatically underlined the concerns industry leaders have raised for years – that the nation’s horribly inefficient power sector is dragging on the economy and could undermine its longer-term ambitions. More generally, it renewed concerns about India’s failure to invest in the infrastructure needed to support its rapidly growing economy, in sharp contrast to neighboring China. It also destroyed one myth about the country – that its entrepreneurial spirit and vibrant private sector could somehow deliver a brighter future without a dramatic improvement in the way the country is governed.


Permalink Police State: Twitter bans Brit hack over Olympic coverage criticism

Guy Adams, a writer for the UK’s Independent, had his Twitter account suspended while criticizing NBC’s coverage of the 2012 London Olympics. The ban was quickly executed at the broadcaster's request. - The LA-based Brit was initially angered by NBC’s decision to broadcast some events on tape-delay.

“Am I alone in wondering why NBColympics think its [sic] acceptable to pretend this road race is being broadcast live?” he tweeted.

Adams’ tweets got more and more stinging, until the journalist went after NBC Olympics President Gary Zenkel, calling him a “moronic exec” who was misleading the network’s viewers. Adams then tweeted that Zenkel should be fired, and published Zeckel’s corporate email address so that his followers could give him a piece of their mind.

Permalink Bomb scare closes US Embassy in Norway

The U.S. Embassy and an area of central Oslo were evacuated on Tuesday when a fake explosive device was mistakenly left beneath a vehicle trying to enter the compound, police said. The discovery of the device by security guards also led to the evacuation of the royal palace, the halting of subway traffic in the area, and the cancellation of an international children's soccer game at nearby Voldslokka Stadium so police could use the field for helicopters. The bomb scare and police search closed the entire area for several hours. "The Oslo police bomb squad has removed the object and can confirm that it was a dummy bomb," police said in a statement. "The car has been used for an internal drill at the embassy, and the find can be connected to this." Norway's monarch was not at the palace at the time, but people visiting it were evacuated during the security check. The U.S. Embassy did not immediately comment about how the mistake had been made.

News in English: Embassy sparked own bomb scare - An almost eerie quiet descended on the area around the US Embassy in Oslo on Tuesday, as police dealt with what they feared was a bomb found under a nearby car. Now there may be some noise, after police indicated the bomb scare was sparked by the embassy itself.


Permalink Massacre-accused's psychiatrist in threat team

A former University of Colorado graduate student accused of killing 12 people and wounding 58 others in a shooting rampage at a Denver-area movie theater last week had been under the care of [Svengali], a psychiatrist who was part of a campus threat-assessment team. The disclosure came in court documents filed overnight, NZT, by lawyers for James Holmes, 24, who is accused of opening fire last weekend on a packed showing of the latest Batman movie, The Dark Knight Rises, in the Denver suburb of Aurora.

The defence attorneys, in their request to an Arapahoe County district judge, are seeking a court order requiring prosecutors to turn over the contents of a package that Holmes sent to Dr Lynne Fenton and was later seized by investigators. "Mr Holmes was a psychiatric patient of Dr Fenton, and his communications with her are protected," the filing said. Fenton, medical director for student mental health services at the University of Colorado-Denver Anschutz Medical Campus, provides medication and psychotherapy for grad students in addition to her teaching duties, according to a school website.
