Eating healthy food means you're mentally ill.



What? WHAT????

In its never-ending attempt to fabricate "mental disorders" out of every human activity, the psychiatric industry is now pushing the most ridiculous disease they've invented yet: Healthy eating disorder.

This is no joke: If you focus on eating healthy foods, you're "mentally diseased" and probably need some sort of chemical treatment involving powerful psychotropic drugs.

Censored in US Media - American Teen Murdered by Terrorists

 American Youth Furkan Dogan
Murdered by Israeli Terrorists
If you rely for your news on the US corporate media, whether ad-supported or underwriter-supported, you won’t learn that Furkan Dogan, the 19-year-old American citizen slain by Israeli commandos in the raid on the Gaza-bound flotilla May 31, was shot in the back and in the back of the head, as well as multiple times in the face.

This is the conclusion of the autopsy conducted by the Turkish Council of Forensic Medicine, which also did autopsies on the eight other Turkish citizens killed in the Israeli raid on the Mavi Marmara ferry and five other smaller boats in the so-called Freedom Flotilla. Of the other eight dead, the medical examiners found that five had been shot in the back, or in the back of the head.This critically important information has not appeared in US news reports.

Your Moment of: WTF?

Your Moment of: WTF?

Where Were You When Kennedy Was Shot?

I was 14 years old and in Mr Yun's geometry class at Terra Linda High School. The announcement came from the wooden speaker mounted above the chalkboard. Marlene Katzman began crying. I will never forget that moment. Some years later George HW Bush was asked where he was on that day and he claimed he didn't remember.

What's a Little Revisionism Among Friends? (Guest Post)

Yo bipeds, listen up! My original humans called me Marlon, misspelling it "Marlin" on the tag hanging from the slave collar they made me wear. (Imagine naming a cat after a fish. Idiots!)  Now that I have gotten Dave to let me live here (had to get myself crippled to do it, but that's another story) he has finally decided on a better moniker, Buddy. I like it; it suits me. (Like all cats, my real name remains secret and unpronounceable by humans.) Past references to me have been revised to reflect current reality.  Good enough for Stalin, good enough for me.
Meow,

Change? My Ass! Thanks for Nothing, Obama!


I read the news today, oh boy. Obama has nominated Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court.
So much for any hope Obama would do something to slow our nation's decline into totalitarianism.
See this, this, this, this, and this.

Anyone calling Obama a leftist, liberal, or progressive needs to have the stupid beat out of them.

A Method to Republican 'Madness' by Robert Parry

I'm no fan of the Democratic Party, but when it comes to psychopathy, they can't hold a candle to the GOP.

The “destroy Obama” game plan tracks most closely with Newt Gingrich’s strategy for undermining Bill Clinton 16 years ago. But today’s strategy also traces back to Richard Nixon’s sabotage of President Lyndon B. Johnson’s Vietnam peace talks in 1968 and Ronald Reagan’s October Surprise gambit against President Jimmy Carter’s Iran hostage negotiations in 1980.

Smoking and Parkinson's Prevention





"The researchers found that the more years a person had smoked, the lower their risk of Parkinson's disease."

Yet *Another* Reason to Boycot WalMart



As if anyone needed any more reasons to boycott the bastards, now there's this:



 Despite medical marijuana being legal in Michigan, WalMart has fired a cancer patient and former employee of the year who tested positive for the drug, which was recommended by his doctor.... 
 At his doctor's recommendation, Casias legally uses medical marijuana to ease his pain.
"It helps tremendously," Casias said. "I only use it to stop the pain. To make me feel more comfortable and active as a person."
Casias said he went to work every day during his five years at WalMart. "I gave them everything," he said. "One hundred and ten percent every day. Anything they asked me to do, I did. More than they asked me to do. Twelve to 14 hours a day."
 Then Casias sprained his knee at work last November. During the routine drug screening that follows all workplace injuries, marijuana was detected in his system.
 Casias showed WalMart managers his Michigan medical marijuana card, but was fired anyway.

AFAIC, the only good reason to set foot in a CrapMart would be to do some mischief.

Frankenfood is Making America Sick


GM [genetically modified] crops were widely introduced in 1996. Within nine years, the incidence of people in the US with three or more chronic diseases nearly doubled—from 7% to 13%. Visits to the emergency room due to allergies doubled from 1997 to 2002. And overall food related illnesses doubled from 1994 to 2001, according to the Centers for Disease Control. Obesity, diabetes, gastrointestinal disorders, and autism are also among the conditions that are skyrocketing in the US.

Corporations controlling the food are making people sick and those controlling health care are letting them die.  Everything is proceeding according to plan...

The Day the CIA Dosed a Town



In 1951, a quiet, picturesque village in southern France was suddenly and mysteriously struck down with mass insanity and hallucinations. At least five people died, dozens were interned in asylums and hundreds afflicted.
For decades it was assumed that the local bread had been unwittingly poisoned with a psychedelic mould. Now, however, an American investigative journalist has uncovered evidence suggesting the CIA peppered local food with the hallucinogenic drug LSD as part of a mind control experiment at the height of the Cold War.

America's Darkest Secret - Autogenocide

The Nine Stages of American Autogenocide - Martha Rose Crow, M.S.

American Autogenocide is the deliberate, systematic and legal murder of American citizens by socially-engineering the die-off of populations that are “problematic” for the interests of wealth and power. Most victims prematurely die from social forces targeted at them to cause them to wear out by stress. This process is called "Weathering Away" or "Attrition By Stress from Shock." The simple formula for this is: SHOCK=STRESS=PREMATURE DEATH BY AUTOGENOCIDE.

Although it has to be “legal,” autogenocide is always committed under the radar so the media won’t be compelled to report it and so the people won’t see it or understand it. More, the genocide is blamed on the victims and their deaths are hidden-attributed-to other causes rather than the primary one of autogenocide.

What is different between this genocide and other genocides is that this unique genocide doesn't produce mass graves. Instead, the victims are spread over a large geographic area and buried singly, thereby hiding the body count. This keeps the deaths sanitized and homogenized. It also keeps the autogenocide surreal; thus enabling the village to deny It's existence when clues to It's existence are ambundant and abundantly transparent.

Obama Continues Attack on Fourth Amendment

William Fisher reports:

If you are a U.S. resident who owns a cell phone, you should care about the outcome of a court case that "could well decide whether the government can use your cell phone to track you - even if it hasn't shown probable cause to believe it will turn up evidence of a crime." 
...
Back in 2007, the U.S. government applied for court permission to obtain information about the location of an individual's cell phone, without showing probable cause that tracking the individual would turn up evidence of a crime.

A magistrate judge denied the government's request and a district court upheld that decision in September 2008. The government is appealing the ruling in the U.S. Court of Appeals. 

...
"The [George W.] Bush administration reduced the Fourth Amendment to nothing more than a Potemkin Village of rights," Boyle said. "It exists on paper alone. And a pusillanimous Congress has gone along with shredding the entirety of the U.S. Bill of Rights."

"Pres. Obama, the former constitutional law professor, is actively defending in court every hideous atrocity that the Bush administration inflicted upon the Bill of Rights, civil rights, civil liberties, human rights, international law, and the United States Constitution with the acquiescence and/or approval by Congress," he said.

Israel Continues to Emulate Nazis

Jonathan Cook reports

The Israeli government and its right-wing supporters have been waging a “McCarthyite” campaign against human-rights groups by blaming them for the barrage of international criticism that followed Israel’s attack on Gaza a year ago, critics say.
 
In a sign of the growing backlash against the human-rights community, the cabinet backed a bill last week that, if passed, will jail senior officials from the country’s peace-related organisations should they fail to meet tough new registration conditions.

The measure is a response to claims by right-wing lobbyists that Israel’s human-rights advocates supplied much of the damaging evidence of war crimes cited by Judge Richard Goldstone in his UN-commissioned report into Israel’s Operation Cast Lead.
...
"We are seeing the evaporation of the last freedoms of speech and organisation in Israel," said Amal Jamal, head of politics at Tel Aviv University and the director of Ilam, a media-rights organisation that would be targeted by the new legislation. The Israeli political system, he added, was being transformed into a "totalitarian democracy".

It Is Now Official: The U.S. Is A Police State

  When even Reagan appointees are saying it, can there be much doubt?  Here's the latest from Paul Craig Roberts.

Excerpt:
Dr. Aafia Siddiqui an American citizen of Pakistani origin might have been the first. Dr. Siddiqui, a scientist educated at MIT and Brandeis University, was seized in Pakistan for no known reason, sent to Afghanistan, and was held secretly for five years in the U.S. military's notorious Bagram prison in Afghanistan.

Her three young children were with her at the time she was abducted, one an eight-month old baby. She has no idea what has become of her two youngest children. Her oldest child, 7 years old, was also incarcerated in Bagram and subjected to similar abuse and horrors.

Siddiqui has never been charged with any terrorism-related offense. A British journalist, hearing her piercing screams as she was being tortured, disclosed her presence. An embarrassed U.S. government responded to the disclosure by sending Siddiqui to the U.S. for trial on the trumped-up charge that while a captive, she grabbed a U.S. soldier's rifle and fired two shots attempting to shoot him.

The charge apparently originated as a U.S. soldier's excuse for shooting Dr. Siddiqui twice in the stomach resulting in her near death.

On February 4, Dr. Siddiqui was convicted by a New York jury for attempted murder. The only evidence presented against her was the charge itself and an unsubstantiated claim that she had once taken a pistol-firing course at an American firing range.

No evidence was presented of her fingerprints on the rifle that this frail and broken 100-pound woman had allegedly seized from an American soldier. No evidence was presented that a weapon was fired, no bullets, no shell casings, no bullet holes. Just an accusation.

Complaint Filed Against Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al


Professor Francis A. Boyle of the University of Illinois College of Law in Champaign, U.S.A. has filed a Complaint with the Prosecutor for the International Criminal Court (I.C.C.) in The Hague against U.S. citizens George W. Bush, Richard Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, George Tenet, Condoleezza Rice, and Alberto Gonzales (the “Accused”) for their criminal policy and practice of “extraordinary rendition” perpetrated upon about 100 human beings. This term is really their euphemism for the enforced disappearance of persons and their consequent torture. This criminal policy and practice by the Accused constitute Crimes against Humanity in violation of the Rome Statute establishing the I.C.C.

Many thanks to Professor Boyle. This courageous move probably puts him at risk for suicide.
