L'Autre Monde 15 juillet 2010: Le totalitarisme inversé & actualité mondiale
Actualité:
Ne manquez pas le documentaire "Le projet N" à Radio-Can, vendredi 21h, sur la production d'anthrax à Grosse-Ile (Qc, Can) durant la 2e guerre mondiale. Ces armes de destruction massives ont été créées sous la supervision et grâce au financement de Sam Bronfman (le docu ne donne aucun détail sur ce mafieux trafiquant d'alcool devenu proprio de Seagram, parrain de l'État terroriste d'Israël, du B'Nai Brith et du Congrès juif, etc. - son héritier actuel contrôle Warner Media Group). Ils avaient produit assez d'anthrax pour éradiquer 30 fois la population mondiale!
Ce docu présente des infos totalement inédites, obtenues par Radio-Can grâce à la loi d'accès sur l'info.
Voir le résumé du docu
NB: c'est pas les "nazis" qui ont créé ces armes de destruction massive. Et c'est pas les nazis non plus qui ont créé et utilisé deux fois l'arme atomique contre des cibles civiles! C'étaient nos bienveillantes démocraties occidentales, défenseurs de la liberté et pourfendeurs des tyrannies!
Totalitarisme inversé
François Marginean
Chris Hedges, journaliste lauréat du prix Pulitzer pour le New York Times et auteur de plusieurs livres, a écrit un article percutant publié en anglais le 8 février 2010. Ce billet en est largement inspiré et en quelque sorte un compte rendu en français. L’article original de 12 pages est disponible sous le titre « Chris Hedges: Zero Point of Systemic Collapse ».
Cet article est d’une importance capitale pour temps à venir. Il résume bien aussi mon analyse personnelle du déroulement des évènements passés, présents et surtout, futurs. Il mérite toute notre attention et puisqu’il est si bien écrit, ceci constituera principalement une traduction libre de l’auteur qui doit recevoir tous les mérites.
Egyptian General - 9/11 Was An Inside Job
SEC: Government Destroyed Documents Regarding Pre-9/11 Put Options
The SEC responded:
This letter is in response to your request seeking access to and copies of the documentary evidence referred to in footnote 130 of Chapter 5 of the September 11 (9/11) Commission Report.
***
We have been advised that the potentially responsive records have been destroyed.
If the SEC had responded by producing documents showing that the pre-9/11 put options had an innocent explanation (such as a hedge made by a smaller airline), that would be understandable.
If the SEC had responded by saying that the documents were classified as somehow protecting proprietary financial information, I wouldn't like it, but I would at least understand the argument.
But destroyed? Why?
When War Criminals are Rewarded for Killing People: Tony Blair Awarded the "Liberty Medal"

Obama endorses Netanyahu as “man of peace”
President Barack Obama on Tuesday praised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a man who “wants peace” and is “willing to take risks for peace.”
He did so following a White House meeting five weeks after the May 31 raid on the Mavi Marmara Gaza aid convoy, in which Israeli forces murdered eight Turkish activists and a dual Turkish-US national. The White House meeting was also on the eve of another round of Israeli settlement expansion on the

TSA to Block "Controversial Opinion" on the Web
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is blocking certain websites from the federal agency's computers, including halting access by staffers to any Internet pages that contain a "controversial opinion," according to an internal email obtained by CBS News.
The email was sent to all TSA employees from the Office of Information Technology on Friday afternoon.
It states that as of July 1, TSA employees will no longer be allowed to access five categories of websites that have been deemed "inappropriate for government access."
The categories include:

Webmaster's Commentary:
The global warming cult is desperate to trick you into agreeing with their carbon tax and credit system, and are bandying about news stories about "dangerous" heat waves. But as this article shows, the temperature sensors are being set up to create artificially high readings.
Meanwhile, the various climate organizations that investigated themselves after the climategate scandal (and who depend on global warming funding) have all declared themselves honorable people and denounced as crazy and uneducated anybody who thinks "hide the decline" actually meant "hide the decline!"
GLOBAL WARMING CULT CAUGHT SPAMMING THE NET WITH THEIR PROPAGANDA!
Webmaster's Commentary:

Mediaphobia at the IPCC
New York Times blogger Andrew Revkin had the scoop on Saturday—a letter that IPCC chairman Rajendra Pachauri recently sent to the 831 researchers who will contribute to the panel’s next assessment report, its fifth. In the letter, Pachauri tells scientists to "keep a distance" from reporters.
Climategate Investigations Are Arrogant Insults
There were two British investigations into the behavior of scientists at the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia (UEA) exposed in leaked emails. Both reports provide no answers, no explanations and are only telling for what they did not ask or do and how they were manipulated. The blatant level of cover up is frightening. These are acts by people who believe they are unaccountable because they have carried out the greatest scam in history with impunity. The degree of cover up in both cases is an arrogant in-your-face statement that we are the power and are not answerable to anyone. Their cover up almost belittles the ones they are investigating.
Climategate Whitewash Complete: Third Inquiry Clears Everyone Involved
A third and final inquiry into the climategate scandal has exonerated everyone involved and declared that there is no question over the science behind manmade global warming – even though, like its predecessors, it has not investigated the science.
The so called “independent” inquiry into scientists at The University of East Anglia’s Climate research Unit found that “Their rigor and honesty as scientists are not in doubt”.
It further noted “We did not find any evidence of behavior that might undermine the conclusions of the IPCC.”
Webmaster's Commentary:
"Can we have the carbon tax now, can we? Huh? Can we?" -- Official White Horse Souse
The Climategate Whitewash Continues
Mr. Russell took pains to present his committee, which consisted of four other academics, as independent. He told the Times of London that "Given the nature of the allegations it is right that someone who has no links to either the university or the climate science community looks at the evidence and makes recommendations based on what they find."
Another Gigantic Undersea Volcano Found Off Coast of Indonesia
Now, this illustrates one of the problems with the global warming alarmists theories, because they claim to know for a certainty how much humans contribute to global warming.
But in order to have an accurate figure for the human contribution to the temperature of the oceans and atmosphere, you need to be able to subtract out all other factors.
So, how many active undersea volcanoes are there in the world?
Don't worry that you don't know; it is a trick question. Nobody has that answer, as today's story illustrates.
So, if the number of undersea volcanoes pouring heat into the oceans and from the oceans into the atmosphere are unknown, then it is impossible to estimate what the human contributions might be.

After two years of backroom lobbying of the Pride board of directors, their sponsors and city officials who make funding decisions for the festival, the organization succumbed to pressure and announced that it would censor the term "Israeli apartheid" from the parade.
In its May 28 editorial A case study in activism, the National Post hailed the decision as a landmark victory that would have “significant repercussions for the intellectual climate in this country.”
Less than a month later, Pride Toronto reversed its decision and allowed Queers Against Israeli Apartheid to march in the parade. As a result of the controversy, hundreds of people joined the group at Pride last weekend, forming the largest

Anger in Costa Rica Over Deal to ‘Invite’ 46 US Warships
Ostensibly the extension of a long-standing agreement to cooperate in the US war on drugs, the new version actually explicitly allows the US to send warships instead of Coast Guard ships and allows the troops to “carry out the activities it deems necessary” in the nation, basically giving the US military a blank check for all operations in Costa Rica.
Webmaster's Commentary:
This most likely has nothing to do with the US's wrong-headed and counterproductive "war on drugs", and everything to do with having a strike force "parked" in Central America, ready to wreak havoc on any Central or South American country which is not behaving in the way the US wishes.

Media Access Rules In Gulf Preventing Media From Covering Oil Spill

Ecological Holocaust and its Cover-up
HOLOCAUST
The term is accurate in this context.
Holocaust = murder on a mass scale.
Future videos will show exactly how appropriate this term is, but in short, not only has BP unleashed an uncontainable disaster of geologic proportions, it's also spraying tons of a highly toxic substance - coexit - at night, against the "request" of the EPA, not to contain the oil, but to mask the scale and scope of the disaster.
This is not only creating a ecological catastrophe of unprecedented proportions, it will sicken and kill thousands, possibly millions, of people, contaminate drinking water, and damage crops and agricultural land.
And make no mistake, this catastrophe is a major bonanza for the Oil Industrial Complex.

Specifically Gulf toxicologist Dr. Susan Shaw - Founder and Director of the Marine Environmental Research Institute - dove into the oil spill to examine the chemicals present.
Corexit Being Sprayed From Coast Guard
Standard EPA tests for "toxicity" consider a product safe if nothing dies in 96 hours. The dispersant being used is only considered "safe" because it killed creatures two weeks later instead of in 4 days.

The main ingredients of Corexit is 2-Butoxyethanol which can make up to 60% of the dispersant and is known to be toxic to blood, kidneys, liver, and the central nervous system (CNS).
2-Butoxyethanol is also known to cause cancer, birth defects and has been found to cause genetic mutations and is a delayed chronic health hazard as well as an environmental hazardous material

Former Contractor: BP Not Interested In Cleaning Up Oil Spill
As we have highlighted, as one of the founding members of the cap and trade lobby, BP stands to reap a financial bounty if the Obama administration succeeds in exploiting the worsening oil spill crisis to push through a carbon tax.
If Explosives Are Used to Seal the Leaking Oil Gusher, Extreme Caution Should Be Used to Prevent Landslides
I have previously argued that "the odds that the release of methane from the leaking oil will cause a tidal wave or a firestorm are infinitesimally small."
I am sticking by that assessment.
But Reuters notes that the use of explosives to seal the oil gusher could cause a landslide:
“I think this situation has taught us from the start to have a backup,” retired U.S. Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen, the top official overseeing the spill response, told reporters this week. …

Discovery of second pipe in Deepwater Horizon riser stirs debate among experts
While Allen said he believes the second pipe fell from above, some experts have advanced another explanation. They believe poorly cemented casings -- tubes that are supposed to form solid walls down thousands of feet of the well bore -- may have been dislodged by the blast of natural gas that shot up out of the well and above the sea floor.
If that's what happened, the piece of pipe would have gone into the blowout preventer, the 450-ton tower of valves and pistons that sits on top of the well head and is supposed to shut off the well in an emergency. The Deepwater Horizon's blowout preventer failed to cut through the pipe that ran through it, and subsequent efforts to shut the so-called shear rams using remote-control submarine robots also failed.
Webmaster's Commentary:
This second drill pipe was being discussed here on the blogs more than a week ago, but was only officially acknowledged Friday.

Oil flows freely into Gulf after BP removes cap

Webmaster's Commentary:
I hate to be such a cynic, but especially after Saddam's "nooks" I smell a huge rat here.
Take a look at the live cams right now, supposedly working on the uncapped well. (Warning, this link sometimes crashes Firefox).
Now, take a look at still framecaps from the well only a couple weeks ago when the cap was still in place.
The live cams, with the cap supposedly removed today, do not seem to show anywhere near as much oil coming out of the pipe.
How can we know we are in fact looking at the actual well head and not a staged recreation for propaganda purposes, especially with famed film maker James Cameron having been on scene for many weeks now.
Yes, this idea is a little out there, but decoys for military purposes are big business in the
Ask yourself if BP would fake a well capping to contain the bad publicity and save their stock price.
Ask yourself if Obama would fake a well capping to avoid having the disaster as an issue come November?
Second issue. We know from the failure of the first Top Kill procedure, as well as from the seepage coming from the ocean floor around the well head, that there has been a subsurface blowout about 1000 feet down where a piece of safety gear was damaged by the drilling process. BP calls it a malfunctioning disk.
So, there are at least two vents in the pipe system, one at the well head and another 1000 feet down. Capping the well head makes absolutely no sense at all other than a public relations stunt because the oil and methane will continue to escape from the subsurface blowout lower down. Indeed, the pressure and flow of the leakage into the formation will increase with the capping of the well head, hastening the moment then the subsurface blowout breaches the ocean floor and sends the accumulated oil and gas from the last 80 days to the surface in a single giant blowout.
If this is the real well head and not a fake created for public relations purposes, this is a dangerous and reckless thing to do for the sake of an election-saving headline.

A Whale to the rescue: Can super-skimmer turn tide of Gulf oil spill?
To date, skimmers in the Gulf have collected 671,000 barrels (28.2 million gallons) of oil and water mix from the Gulf.
The A Whale, for its part, could collect more than 125 times the amount of the largest skimmer currently working the Gulf. It's capable of slurping up 300,000 barrels of oil (21 million gallons) of oil in 10 hours, and offloading it to a companion vessel, A Elephant. Mr. Su is already readying two other retrofitted tankers, the B Whale and C Whale, for service in the Gulf.

BP Collapse Potentially More Devastating than Lehman!
As horrific as the gulf environmental catastrophe is, an even more intractable and cataclysmic disaster may be looming. The yet unknowable costs associated with clean-up, litigation and compensation damages due to arguably the world’s worst environmental tragedy, may be in the process of triggering a credit event by British Petroleum (BP) that will be equally devastating to global over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives. The potential contagion may eventually show that Lehman Bros. and Bear Stearns were simply early warning signals of the devastation lurking and continuing to grow unchecked in the $615T OTC Derivatives market.

In other words, BP will borrow itself to the hilt to clean up the mess they made (and MMS let them) and you will spend the rest of your life paying high gas prices to repay the loans. I gu7ess from BP's point of view that's a better deal than digging into their executive bonuses!
Whistleblower: Relief payments get slashed if fishermen refuse to work for BP
Any relief payment plan established in the wake of the worst environmental accident ever was bound to have its flaws, but this goes to a whole new level of wrong.

BP, cops detain reporter for taking pictures of oil refinery
According to Rosenfield, the officers said they had a right to look at photos taken near secured areas of the refinery, even if they were shot from public property. Rosenfield said he was told he would be "taken in" if he declined to comply. Michael Marr, a BP spokesman, released a statement explaining the company's actions:
Paul Steiger, editor-in-chief of ProPublica, said: "We certainly appreciate the need to secure the nation's refineries. But we're deeply troubled by BP's conduct here, especially when they knew we were working on deadline on critical stories about this very facility. And we see no reason why, if law enforcement needed to review the unpublished photographs, that should have included sharing them with a representative of a private company."
Webmaster's Commentary:
One has to wonder what BP was so terrified these pictures would document.
It appears that publicly paid law enforcement officials have now become the enforcement arm of private corporations. This means that a true dictatorship has arrived in this country without any President ever having to declare martial law.
Can it rain oily compounds in the Gulf of Mexico? Yes! Chris Landau geologist & meteorologist
Do not let your kids eat the hail or drink the rainwater. It is likely to contain some benzene and cyclohexane. Can it rain oily compounds? The short answer is it certainly can. It is also not complex to work out which chemical compounds will be coming down in our rainwater. It is those with a similar boiling point and freezing point to water. It is those that are not too heavy, that are similar to that of air at 1.2 kg per cubic meter. They should be able to rise easily to upper atmospheric levels.
Let us start with water. On earth at everyday working temperatures matter has 3 phases. They are solid, liquid and gas. We know these phases by other names called ice, water and steam.
