Rien n’était plus certain!  &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Malgré la controverse concernant les émissions de radiofréquence, Hydro-Québec compte procéder à l’installation de 3,8 millions de compteurs intelligents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La société d’État a annoncé, lundi, que la phase de déploiement était complétée. Ainsi, 20 000 compteurs ont été installés et testés dans l’arrondissement de Villeray à Montréal, à Boucherville et dans la MRC de Memphrémagog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hydro-Québec doit maintenant déposer, d’ici quelques semaines, son dossier à la Régie de l’énergie en vue d’obtenir le feu vert pour l’installation des compteurs. Plusieurs personnes et organismes s’inquiètent toutefois du fait que le compteur émet des radiofréquences (RF). Au cours de la phase de déploiement, 11 personnes ont refusé leur installation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Le 5 février, la Coalition québécoise de lutte contre la pollution électromagnétique (CQLPE) organise une manifestation devant le siège social d’Hydro-Québec à Montréal. Selon Hydro-Québec, la puissance du signal se compare aux émissions des téléphones cellulaires et des routeurs WiFi. «Les émissions de radiofréquences à proximité d’un compteur sont largement inférieures aux normes édictées par Santé Canada», a assuré la directrice d’Hydro-Québec Distribution, Isabelle Courville. Mais pour la CQLPE, ces normes sont «désuètes».&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Au cours de la phase de tests, les 11 personnes qui avaient des réserves n’ont été forcées d’accepter le nouveau compteur. Mais Hydro-Québec devra trouver une autre solution à grande échelle. La Société d’État doit discuter de ce problème avec la Régie de l’énergie. «On espère un déploiement chez tous nos clients, a indiqué Mme Courville avant de confirmer qu’il y aura des discussions à propos de cas d’exception.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La Société n’a toutefois pas beaucoup de marge de manœuvre puisque, selon cette dernière, les fabricants nord-américains ont cessé en 2010 de produire des compteurs électromécaniques. Selon Georges Abiad, directeur Infrastructure de mesurage avancé chez Hydro-Québec, les compteurs intelligents représentent la voie d’avenir. Ils permettront d’effectuer des relevés à distance à l’aide d’un réseau de routeur et de collecteurs. Les factures seront basées sur la consommation réelle des clients et non plus des estimations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;À moyen terme, ce système pourrait aussi détecter les pannes et rétablir le service, toujours à distance. Il sera aussi possible pour le client de connaître sa consommation en temps réel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.journalmetro.com/linfo/article/1078634--hydro-quebec-ira-de-l-avant-avec-ses-compteurs-intelligents"&gt;Source&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.conscience-du-peuple.blogspot.com/2012/01/hydro-quebec-ira-de-lavant-avec-ses.html"&gt;Conscience du peuple&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://tvanouvelles.ca/lcn/economie/archives/2012/01/20120112-193410.html?mid=57" target="_blank"&gt;Compteurs intelligents – Hydro-Québec entre en contact avec ses opposants à tvanouvelles.ca.&lt;/a&gt; Un clip de l’entrevue avec M-M Poisson.

run-of-the-mill flu or just the measles, for loading up your or your children's bodies with cancer and other deadly viruses, a destructive bacteria, a chemical selected to damage fertility, and with synthetic DNA that threatens to damage your own DNA - the biologic code for your existence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="story"&gt;&lt;span

&gt;contaminated&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; with a virus, caused the AIDS epidemic in the US.

He found that they are ALL &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background:#FFFB98;font-size:100%;" &gt;contaminated&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; with viruses that are so small they can never be removed.  He no longer gives any vaccines.  He now treats his young patients for autism and other neurologic injuries from vaccines.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="story"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Donald W. Scott, the editor of The Journal of Degenerative Diseases and the co-founder of the Common Cause Medical Research Foundation, links vaccines to AIDS (as did Hillerman) and to US bio-weapons research, and says they are contaminated with mycoplasma, a primitive bacteria that takes apart cell walls.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="story"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Perhaps the highest scientific authority saying vaccines are contaminated is Garth Nicolson. He is a cell biologist and editor of the Journal of Clinical and Experimental Metastasis, and the Journal of Cellular Biochemistry. He is one of the most cited scientists in the world, having published over 600 medical and scientific peer-reviewed papers, edited over 14 books, and served on the editorial boards of 28 medical and scientific journals. He is not just saying that vaccines are contaminated with mycoplasma but is &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk-RMI4qNvA" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#053BEE;"&gt;warning the US&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; that they are. Nicolson goes further and says that we are all being damaged by them and contracting chronic degenerative diseases that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="story"&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lU12h6lWi9I&amp;amp;NR=1" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#0000CC;"&gt;That damage translates into lifelong patients&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; (and thus life-long profit) for the pharmaceutical industry making the vaccines and he says doesn't appear to be accidental.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/034334_Institute_of_Medicine_vaccination_dangers.html" target="_blank" title="Institute of medicine safety report confirms vaccine dangers"&gt;Institute of medicine safety report confirms vaccine dangers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:115%;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The statement by the IOM that a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background:yellow;font-size:100%;" &gt;"relationship between certain vaccines and adverse health complications does exist" is monumental since it is coming from a mainstream medical organization&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; (though it does not truly highlight all of the dangers involved with vaccinations). Gardasil, a popular vaccine developed by Merck, has been linked to over 49 deaths and countless hospitalizations. Adding fuel to the fire, California legislatures passed a bill that would make the vaccine mandatory to young California residents of both genders. It later came out that key legislatures who were instrumental in passing the bill were receiving financial incentives from Merck, who will receive millions if the law is approved.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:115%;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; color:red;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://preventdisease.com/news/pdf/Research_Citations_Linking_Vaccines_To_Disease.pdf" target="_blank" title="Research Citations Linking Vaccines To Disease"&gt;Research Citations Linking Vaccines To Disease&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:115%;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; color:red;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://refreshingnews9.blogspot.com/2011/12/minutes-before-execution-chinese-women.html" target="_blank" title="Minutes Before Execution, Chinese Women Face Death With A Smile"&gt;Minutes Before Execution, Chinese Women Face Death With A Smile&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;So sensitive were the photographs, that the authorities banned them from being published.

I learnt about it on the web.” But the article then states (emphasis added), “and last night, thanks to the web, organisers were expecting more than 30,000 people to demonstrate against what they see as the rigged results of last Sunday’s elections, because that’s how many have committed themselves to a sign-up sheet on Facebook.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;While the article claims that no political party is recruiting protesters, earlier reports out of the Western media contradict this entirely, with &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/russia/8940646/Russian-elections-Boris-Nemtsov-calls-for-vote-rerun.html"&gt;the London Telegraph reproducing a blog post&lt;/a&gt; by US NED-funded opposition leader Boris Nemtsov stating before the December 10 protests, “I am talking about pickets at Petrovka 38 (the main police station) and on Simferopol Boulevard where the detained are being held, and other actions too. We start from today. I will take part in all this myself. On Saturday, December 10, a general meeting will be held on Revolution Square (in Moscow) at two o’clock to protest against these false elections. ”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2072427/Russian-protests-2011-Vladimir-Putins-louse-say-demonstrators-alleged-election-fraud.html"&gt;The Daily Mail has also reported&lt;/a&gt;,”and Moscow rally organiser, opposition politician Vladimir Ryzhkov, has announced there will be another protest on December 24, which he says will be twice as large,” and &lt;a href="http://russiaprofile.org/politics/50597.html"&gt;RIA Novosti News reporting&lt;/a&gt;, “on a stage emblazoned with the logo “Return Power to the People” Russia’s best known opposition figures, from cultural leaders like Navalny and opposition music critic Artemy Troitsky to opposition politicians Boris Nemtsov, Vladimir Ryzhkov and Solidarnost youth leader Ilya Yashin, addressed the hyped-up crowds.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Images: Opposition leader Vladimir Ryzhkov’s movement is not only a beneficiary of US funding, but &lt;a href="http://www.wmd.org/about/steering-committee/vladimir-ryzhkov"&gt;Ryzhkov himself is a card-carrying member&lt;/a&gt; of the US NED World Movement for Democracy (WMD). The &lt;a href="http://www.wmd.org/about/"&gt;WMD “About Us&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.wmd.org/about/"&gt;” page&lt;/a&gt; clearly indicates that the group is a subsidiary of the US State Department funded National Endowment for Democracy.

Its constitution, laws and treaty obligations prohibit torture, assassinations, and holding prisoners without trial. In reality there are secret prisons such as Guantánamo. Similarly, there are two sets of ethical standards in America's dealing with other countries. Enemies are held to the strictest standards. Allies get a pass.

At one stage, whilst watching this ungodly act of aggression, I counted 18 cruise missiles being fired in just one night. The target was a military compound that just so happened to be right next door to a densely populated district in Tripoli. It was obvious to me at the time that they would be contaminating many thousands of people during this particular onslaught. The radioactive fallout of nanoparticles would then drift, not only over this area, but also over the entire city and the region beyond. From my perspective, I found the use of many Cruise Missiles within this high-populated residential district of Tripoli the last straw!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellowfont-size:100%;" &gt;My question to Obama, Cameron and Sarkozy would now be how many lives do you think you actually saved?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; I can assure you all that as a direct result of their actions in Libya, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellowfont-size:100%;" &gt;they have now committed an act of genocide and thus should all be charged with war crimes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellowfont-size:100%;" &gt;To fire over 18 Cruise Missiles (WMD´s) into the heart of Tripoli was certainly an act against humanity to which NATO and its command structure should be placed before the International Court of Justice.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; It was also a crime that was carried out right under the noses of the United Nations who stood by and did nothing to stop this genocide!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As we all know it didn´t just stop at the use of Cruise Missiles but also Bunker Busters, JDAM and Hellfire Missiles (as used by the Predators unmanned aircraft and also by the Apache Helicopters) all of which &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellowfont-size:100%;" &gt;were in violation of the Geneva Convention based on the following criteria.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellowfont-size:100%;" &gt;Depleted uranium weapons are recognized as weapons developed illegally under the Manhattan Project in World War II by the United States Government. Already illegal and in violation of the 1925 Geneva Poison Gas Protocol, in 1943 depleted uranium weapons were described as a “highly mobile indiscriminate killer and permanent terrain contaminant,” recommended for development in the declassified Manhattan Project memo dated October 30, 1943.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellowfont-size:100%;" &gt;Depleted Uranium has a half-life of 4.5 billion years and basically can never be cleaned up. It is fact that well over 500 missiles (each containing around 350 kg of DU) in some shape or form amounts to at least 175,000 kg. It takes about 50 tons (45,359 Kg) of DU contaminated dust to kill 500,000 people so one can see that when you add to this the DU that was also used by the US, UK and France in other forms of munitions such as Bunker Busters, JDAM bombs, other smaller missiles and the rounds fired from attack helicopters etc we are looking at an incredible volume of DU being spread around Libya, other countries and the world beyond.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not just a simply case of saying that the coalition forces only breached one violation of the Geneva Convention i.e. The 1925 Geneva Poison Gas Protocol (radioactive poison gas)… they did in actual fact breach at least another four which has been covered in many of my previous articles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://news.antiwar.com/2011/12/07/u-s-in-talks-to-rebuild-libyan-army/" target="_blank" title="U.S. in Talks to Rebuild Libyan Army"&gt;U.S. in Talks to Rebuild Libyan Army&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The United States is involved in negotiations with Libya’s interim government over establishing a deal to help rebuild, train, arm, and equip a new national army for Libya.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;One aspect of this U.S. effort to develop Libya’s military is pure nation-building. Disparate bands of rival, independent militias now roam the country and clash with one another. &lt;em&gt;&lt;b&gt;Building up the new Libyan state as one with a monopoly on the use of force is essential if the U.S. intervention is to appear to have stabilized the country.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;Ah yes, we can see how well "nation building" has gone for the US in spots like Iraq and Afghanistan! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;This is going to be (painfully) interesting to watch, as well as very rough on the Libyan people as well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="FR"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language: FR" lang="FR"&gt;Libye – Dans les méandres de l’après Kadhafi : la guerre secrète de l’OTAN&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.centpapiers.com/libye-%E2%80%93-dans-les-meandres-de-l%E2%80%99apres-kadhafi-la-guerre-secrete-de-l%E2%80%99otan/89497"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR" lang="FR"&gt;http://www.centpapiers.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR;font-size:100%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR;font-size:100%;" lang="FR" &gt;Par &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://allainjules.com/2011/12/12/libye-dans-les-meandres-de-lapres-kadhafi-la-guerre-secrete-de-lotan/"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR" lang="FR"&gt;Allain Jules&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR;font-size:100%;" lang="FR" &gt;Les membres du CNT n’en peuvent plus. Alors que personne ne leur fait plus confiance, surtout leurs propres milices, ils ont compris finalement que, ce n’est qu’avec les pro-Kadhafi qu’ils peuvent reconstruire le pays. Ils font désormais le siège, que dis-je, pression sur l’ONU, pour le dégel des biens souverains libyens. Il reste à peine 150 millions de dollars dans les banques occidentales qui en ont bien besoin. Après avoir détruit leur pays, incapables de dédommager les victimes des bombes de l’OTAN ou de lancer des chantiers de reconstruction, notamment à Syrte (vidéo) où, les populations sont hostiles surtout qu’elles n’ont plus rien, l’heure est grave.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR;font-size:100%;" lang="FR" &gt;Les jeunes des milices sont désormais désoeuvrés et obligés de voler, piller et racketter des innocents, pour subsister. “Obligés” est bien un grand mot. Ils ne sont pas qualifiés pour prendre la place laissée par les travailleurs expatriés. Avant la guerre, ils étaient estimés à près de 2 millions, dont la majorité venait d’Afrique subsaharienne, et le reste d’Asie. Les jeunes Libyens qui avaient pris les armes sans réfléchir avaient cru que leur révolution par procuration allait leur procurer la richesse. Guidés par une propagande extrême, les biens qu’ils recevaient gratuitement de la part de la Grande Jamahiriya arabe libyenne et socialiste, n’existent plus. Ne dit-on pas très souvent que, à trop vouloir gagner on perd ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR;font-size:100%;" lang="FR" &gt;Alors que le géant pétrolier italien ENI vient d’annoncer ostensiblement que sa production a retrouvé son lustre d’avant la guerre, pour les Libyens, l’horizon est bouché, obscurci. Les groupes de rebelles qui avaient pillé de nombreux dépôts d’armes laissés par l’armée libyenne, sont interceptés chaque jour dans le désert libyen par des drones français et américains. Le sahel étant devenue une poudrière, la crainte qu’il vendent ces armes à Al-Qaïda au Maghreb islamique (Aqmi) fait craindre le pire. Ainsi, leurs convois sont simplement détruits, au grand dam du CNT qui se retrouve peu à peu en déficit de combattants, surtout que certains ont été défaits en Syrie. Ces derniers voient donc l’OTAN se retourner contre eux. On assiste, dans le désert libyen, à une nouvelle guerre. Une guerre secrète que les médias “mainstream” sont interdits de divulguer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR;font-size:100%;" lang="FR" &gt;Mais que croyaient ces zozos du CNT ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR" lang="FR"&gt;SYRTE LA VILLE DETRUITE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-ansi-language:FR;font-size:100%;" lang="FR" &gt;Tripoli a connu ce matin, de violents combats entre les Zenten et les rebelles qui gèrent la ville.

First Amendment protection of freedom of speech, most recently stated in a 1969 Supreme Court decision, Brandenberg v Ohio, says the government cannot punish inflammatory speech, even if it advocates violence unless it is likely to incite or produce such action. A Pakistani resident legally living in the US was indicted by the DOJ in September 2011 for uploading a video on YouTube. The DOJ said the video was supportive of terrorists even though nothing on the video called for violence. In July 2011, the DOJ indicted a former Penn State student for going onto websites and suggesting targets and for providing a link to an explosives course already posted on the internet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Domestic Government Spying on Muslim Communities&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In activities that offend freedom of religion, freedom of speech, and several other laws, the NYPD and the CIA have partnered to conduct intelligence operations against Muslim communities in New York and elsewhere. The CIA, which is prohibited from spying on Americans, works with the police on “human mapping”, commonly known as racial and religious profiling to spy on the Muslim community. Under the Obama administration, the Associated Press reported in August 2011, informants known as “mosque crawlers,” monitor sermons, bookstores and cafes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Top Secret America&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In July 2010, the Washington Post released “Top Secret America,” a series of articles detailing the results of a two year investigation into the rapidly expanding world of homeland security, intelligence and counter-terrorism. It found 1,271 government organizations and 1,931 private companies work on counterterrorism, homeland security and intelligence at about 10,000 locations across the US. Every single day, the National Security Agency intercepts and stores more than 1.7 billion emails, phone calls and other types of communications. The FBI has a secret database named Guardian that contains reports of suspicious activities filed from federal, state and local law enforcement. According to the Washington Post Guardian contained 161,948 files as of December 2009. From that database there have been 103 full investigations and at least five arrests the FBI reported. The Obama administration has done nothing to cut back on the secrecy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; line-height: normal; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-Times New Roman&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-language:EN-CA"&gt;Other Domestic Spying&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-Times New Roman&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-language:EN-CAfont-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are at least 72 fusion centers across the US which collect local domestic police information and merge it into multi-jurisdictional intelligence centers, according to recent report by the ACLU. These centers share information from federal, state and local law enforcement and some private companies to secretly spy on Americans. These all continue to grow and flourish under the Obama administration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Abusive FBI Intelligence Operations&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Electronic Frontier Foundation documented thousands of violations of the law by FBI intelligence operations from 2001 to 2008 and estimate that there are over 4000 such violations each year. President Obama issued an executive order to strengthen the Intelligence Oversight Board, an agency which is supposed to make sure the FBI, the CIA and other spy agencies are following the law. No other changes have been noticed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wikileaks&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The publication of US diplomatic cables by Wikileaks and then by main stream news outlets sparked condemnation by Obama administration officials who said the publication of accurate government documents was nothing less than an attack on the United States. The Attorney General announced a criminal investigation and promised “this is not saber rattling.” Government officials warned State Department employees not to download the publicly available documents. A State Department official and Columbia officials warned students that discussing Wikileaks or linking documents to social networking sites could jeopardize their chances of getting a government job, a position that lasted several days until reversed by other Columbia officials. At the time this was written, the Obama administration continued to try to find ways to prosecute the publishers of Wikileaks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Censorship of Books by the CIA&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2011, the CIA demanded extensive cuts from a memoir by former FBI agent Ali H. Soufan, in part because it made the agency look bad. Soufan’s book detailed the use of torture methods on captured prisoners and mistakes that led to 9-11. Similarly, a 2011 book on interrogation methods by former CIA agent Glenn Carle was subjected to extensive black outs. The CIA under the Obama administration continues its push for censorship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blocking Publication of Photos of U.S. Soldiers Abusing Prisoners&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In May 2009, President Obama reversed his position of three weeks earlier and refused to release photos of US soldiers abusing prisoners. In April 2009, the US Department of Defense told a federal court that it would release the photos. The photos were part of nearly 200 criminal investigations into abuses by soldiers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; line-height: normal; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-Times New Roman&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-language:EN-CA"&gt;Technological Spying&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-Times New Roman&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-language:EN-CAfont-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bay Area Transit System, in August 2011, hearing of rumors to protest against fatal shootings by their police, shut down cell service in four stations. Western companies sell email surveillance software to repressive regimes in China, Libya and Syria to use against protestors and human rights activists. Surveillance cameras monitor residents in high crime areas, street corners and other governmental buildings. Police department computers ask for and receive daily lists from utility companies with addresses and names of every home address in their area. Computers in police cars scan every license plate of every car they drive by. The Obama administration has made no serious effort to cut back these new technologies of spying on citizens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Use of “State Secrets” to Shield Government and Others from review&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the Bush government was caught hiring private planes from a Boeing subsidiary to transport people for torture to other countries, the Bush administration successfully asked the federal trial court to dismiss a case by detainees tortured because having a trial would disclose “state secrets” and threaten national security. When President Obama was elected, the state secrets defense was reaffirmed in arguments before a federal appeals court. It continues to be a mainstay of the Obama administration effort to cloak their actions and the actions of the Bush administration in secrecy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In another case, it became clear in 2005 that the Bush FBI was avoiding the Fourth Amendment requirement to seek judicial warrants to get telephone and internet records by going directly to the phone companies and asking for the records. The government and the companies, among other methods of surveillance, set up secret rooms where phone and internet traffic could be monitored. In 2008, the government granted the companies amnesty for violating the privacy rights of their customers. Customers sued anyway. But the Obama administration successfully argued to the district court, among other defenses, that disclosure would expose state secrets and should be dismissed. The case is now on appeal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Material Support&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Obama administration successfully asked the US Supreme Court not to apply the First Amendment and to allow the government to criminalize humanitarian aid and legal activities of people providing advice or support to foreign organizations which are listed on the government list as terrorist organizations. The material support law can now be read to penalize people who provide humanitarian aid or human rights advocacy. The Obama administration Solicitor General argued to the court “when you help Hezbollah build homes, you are also helping Hezbollah build bombs.” The Court agreed with the Obama argument that national security trumps free speech in these circumstances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chicago Anti-war Grand Jury Investigation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In September 2010, FBI agents raided the homes of seven peace activists in Chicago, Minneapolis and Grand Rapids seizing computers, cell phones, passports, and records. More than 20 anti-war activists were issued federal grand jury subpoenas and more were questioned across the country. Some of those targeted were members of local labor unions, others members of organizations like the Arab American Action Network, the Columbia Action Network, the Twin Cities Anti-War Campaign and the Freedom Road Socialist Organization. Many were active internationally and visited resistance groups in Columbia and Palestine. Subpoenas directed people to bring anything related to trips to Columbia, Palestine, Jordan, Syria, Israel or the Middle East. In 2011, the home of a Los Angeles activist was raided and he was questioned about his connections with the September 2010 activists. All of these investigations are directed by the Obama administration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Punishing Whistleblowers&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The Obama administration has prosecuted five whistleblowers under the Espionage Act, more than all the other administrations in history put together. They charged a National Security Agency advisor with ten felonies under the Espionage Act for telling the press that government eavesdroppers were wasting hundreds of millions of dollars on misguided and failed projects. After their case collapsed, the government, which was chastised by the federal judge as engaging in unconscionable conduct allowed him to plead to a misdemeanor and walk. The administration has also prosecuted former members of the CIA, the State Department, and the FBI. They even tried to subpoena a journalist and one of the lawyers for the whistleblowers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Bradley Manning&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Army private Bradley Manning is accused of leaking thousands of government documents to Wikileaks. These documents expose untold numbers of lies by US government officials, wrongful killings of civilians, policies to ignore torture in Iraq, information about who is held at Guantanamo, cover ups of drone strikes and abuse of children and much more damaging information about US malfeasance. Though Daniel Ellsberg and other whistleblowers say Bradley is an American hero, the US government has jailed him and is threatening him with charges of espionage which may be punished by the death penalty. For months Manning was held in solitary confinement and forced by guards to sleep naked. When asked about how Manning was being held, President Obama personally defended the conditions of his confinement saying he had been assured they were appropriate and meeting our basic standards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Solitary Confinement&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At least 20,000 people are in solitary confinement in US jails and prisons, some estimate several times that many. Despite the fact that federal, state and local prisons and jails do not report actual numbers, academic research estimates tens of thousands are kept in cells for 23 to 24 hours a day in supermax units and prisons, in lockdown, in security housing units, in “the hole”, and in special management units or administrative segregation. Human Rights Watch reports that one-third to one-half of the prisoners in solitary are likely mentally ill. In May 2006, the UN Committee on Torture concluded that the United States should “review the regimen imposed on detainees in supermax prisons, in particular, the practice of prolonged isolation.” The Obama administration has taken no steps to cut back on the use of solitary confinement in federal, state or local jails and prisons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Special Administrative Measures&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Special Administrative Measures (SAMS) are extra harsh conditions of confinement imposed on prisoners (including pre-trial detainees) by the Attorney General. The U.S. Bureau of Prisons imposes restrictions such segregation and isolation from all other prisoners, and limitation or denial of contact with the outside world such as: no visitors except attorneys, no contact with news media, no use of phone, no correspondence, no contact with family, no communication with guards, 24 hour video surveillance and monitoring. The DOJ admitted in 2009 that several dozen prisoners, including several pre-trial detainees, mostly Muslims, were kept incommunicado under SAMS. If anything, the use of SAMS has increased under the Obama administration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These twenty concrete examples document a sustained assault on domestic civil liberties in the United States under the Obama administration.

Je veux qu'il soit terrifié de ce qu'il va lui arriver entre les mains américaines...

Maybe the info will come in handy when you finally flee to Saudi Arabia ISO political refugee status and have to explain how your country was oppressing you:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul style="font-family: times new roman;" type="disc"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;      line-height:normal;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list 36.0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt;1. The      provisions were passed as part of the National Defense Authorization Act      (NDAA)—enacted for the last 48 years or so to provide funding for the      military and all our wars. (The act for fiscal year 2012 awarded $662      billion for defense spending.) Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) and Carl Levin      (D-MI) took the lead in promoting them, making passage a &lt;i&gt;bipartisan&lt;/i&gt;      effort/failure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;      line-height:normal;mso-list:l7 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list 36.0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt;2.

The bill      grants power to the military to arrest U.S. citizens on American soil and      detain them in military prisons forever without offering them the right to      legal counsel or even a trial.

Some      people are trying to say that language regarding indefinite detention      (Section 1031) doesn't apply to American citizens, but it does. However, the      mandatory detention requirement (Section 1032) includes an exemption for      American citizens, which means the military doesn't have to imprison you      forever and ever "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.aclu.org/blog/national-security/senators-demand-military-lock-american-citizens-battlefield-they-define-being"&gt;unless ordered to do so&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt;" by      the president.

The proposal was written on the letterhead of the lobbying firm Clark Lytle Geduldig &amp;amp; Cranford and addressed to one of CLGC’s clients, the American Bankers Association. &lt;strong&gt;CLGC’s memo proposes that the ABA pay CLGC $850,000 to conduct “opposition research” on Occupy Wall Street in order to construct “negative narratives” about the protests and allied politicians. Two of the memo’s authors, partners Sam Geduldig and Jay Cranford, previously worked for House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio.&lt;/strong&gt; The memo outlines a 60-day plan to conduct surveys and research on OWS and its supporters so that Wall Street companies will be prepared to conduct a media campaign in response to OWS. Wall Street companies “likely will not be the best spokespeople for their own cause,” according to the memo. “A big challenge is to demonstrate that these companies still have political strength and that making them a political target will carry a severe political cost.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The shocking truth about the crackdown on Occupy&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;November 25, 2011, &lt;i&gt;The Guardian&lt;/i&gt; (One of the UK's leading newspapers)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2011/nov/25/shocking-truth-about-crackdown-occupy" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2011/nov/25/shocking-truth-about-crackdown-occupy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The violent police assaults across the US are no coincidence. Occupy has touched the third rail of our political class's venality. US citizens of all political persuasions are still reeling from images of unparallelled police brutality in a coordinated crackdown against peaceful OWS protesters in cities across the nation this past week. But just when Americans thought we had the picture – was this crazy police and mayoral overkill, on a municipal level, in many different cities? – the picture darkened. The &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="mso-fareast-Times New Roman&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-theme-font:major-fareast"&gt;New York Times&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt; reported that "New York cops have arrested, punched, whacked, shoved to the ground and tossed a barrier at reporters and photographers" covering protests. In New York, a state supreme court justice and a New York City council member were beaten up; in Berkeley, California, one of our greatest national poets, Robert Hass, was beaten with batons. The Mayor of Oakland acknowledged that the Department of Homeland Security had participated in an 18-city mayor conference call advising mayors on "how to suppress" Occupy protests. I noticed that &lt;strong&gt;rightwing pundits and politicians on the TV shows on which I was appearing were all on-message against OWS. &lt;span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow"&gt;Journalist Chris Hayes reported on a leaked memo that revealed lobbyists vying for an $850,000 contract to smear Occupy. Message coordination of this kind is impossible without a full-court press at the top. As the puzzle pieces fit together, they began to show coordination against OWS at the highest national levels.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight:normal"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:115%;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; color:red;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://poorrichards-blog.blogspot.com/2011/12/from-occupation-to-occupy.html" target="_blank" title="From Occupation to "&gt;&lt;span style=" background:red;mso-highlight:red"&gt;From Occupation to “Occupy”: The Israelification of American Domestic Security&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The Israelification of America’s security apparatus, recently unleashed in full force against the Occupy Wall Street Movement, has taken place at every level of law enforcement, and in areas that have yet to be exposed.

Meanwhile, former Israeli military officers have been hired to spearhead security operations at American airports and suburban shopping malls, leading to a wave of disturbing incidents of racial profiling, intimidation, and FBI interrogations of innocent, unsuspecting people. The New York Police Department’s disclosure that it deployed “counter-terror” measures against Occupy protesters encamped in downtown Manhattan’s Zuccotti Park is just the latest example of the so-called War on Terror creeping into every day life. Revelations like these have raised serious questions about the extent to which Israeli-inspired tactics are being used to suppress the Occupy movement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style=" Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt;The process of Israelification began in the immediate wake of 9/11, when national panic led federal and municipal law enforcement officials to beseech Israeli security honchos for advice and training.

By now, police chiefs of major American cities who have not been on junkets to Israel are the exception.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style=" Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt;“Israel is the Harvard of antiterrorism,” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jinsa.org/events-programs/law-enforcement-exchange-program-leep/leep-news/israeli-experts-teach-police-terrori" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#804000;"&gt;said&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt; former US Capitol Police Chief Terrance W.

The crisis at Fukushima continues. Over the weekend - the crippled Japanese nuclear plant spewed even more highly radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean - roughly 45,000 liters in all. According to a French nuclear research institute - since the Fukushima nuclear crisis began in March - the plant has leaked more radioactive material into the ocean than has ever happened before in the history of the planet. And he claims that after more than 8 months since an earthquake and tsunami triggered this crisis - it's inevitable that nuclear fuel has leaked into the groundwater - meaning the "China Syndrome" is officially upon us. He also warned that if underground water gets overheated - it could trigger a hydrovolcanic explosion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:115%;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bobtuskin.com/2011/12/06/nukes-are-for-kids/" target="_blank" title="Nukes Are for Kids"&gt;Nukes Are for Kids&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The nuclear industry is ensuring schoolchildren learn the ABCs of their radioactive future.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The nuclear industry is selling its vision of a bright nuclear future to schoolchildren by offering teachers free education tools extolling the benefits of radiation, according to The New Republic (July 14, 2011).

 &lt;p style="margin-left: 36pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Dr. Sebastian Pflugbeil, the chairman of German Society of Radiation Protection had a lecture in Berlin, and talked about Tokyo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Questioned about minimizing damage from Fukushima&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-left: 36pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Nothing. There is no way to stop the nuclear fuel that has melted-through leaking. All we could do is to pray for the fuel not to touch the underground water vein. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Internal Exposure&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-left: 36pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;We must avoid internal exposure from contaminated food. Authorities are trying to make Japanese eat polluted food for their twisted patriotism, but on the other hand, citizens are setting up independent labs around Japan. This is very important. However, lab facility costs are huge. Maintenance, recording the data costs too. Now, the best thing Germans can do is to support those independent facilities financially. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;On Tokyo&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-left: 36pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Tokyo is not the safe area. Now Tokyo is in the similar situation to Kiev in Chernobyl. Ukrainian Government couldn’t define that densely populated area, Kiev, as evacuating area so they did not admit Kiev was threatened and manipulated the radiation map to look like Plutonium stopped just before Kiev. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:115%;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://enenews.com/dozens-of-radioactive-tires-from-japan-confiscated-by-russians-emitting-excess-levels-of-gamma-and-beta-rays-unsafe-to-bring-into-russia" title="Permanent Link to Dozens of radioactive tires from Japan confiscated by Russians: "&gt;Dozens of radioactive tires from Japan confiscated by Russians: “Emitting excess levels of gamma and beta rays” — “Unsafe to bring into Russia”&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height:115%;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;font-size:100%;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.timeslive.co.za/world/article3199418.ece" target="_blank"&gt;Russian police confiscate radioactive Japanese car tyres&lt;/a&gt;, Times Live, Dec. 1, 2011:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-left: 36pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Police in the Russian Pacific port city Vladivostok confiscated a shipping container from Japan that had dozens of radioactive car tyres in it, the Interfax news agency reported on Thursday.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-left: 36pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;A total 29 tyres in the shipment were emitting excess levels of gamma and beta rays, making them unsafe to bring into Russia, a port official said.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-left: 36pt; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;“There’s a good chance the radioactive tyres are a result of the Fukushima accident,” said Ivan Skogorev, a safety inspector.

style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A second experiment at the European facility that reported subatomic particles zooming faster than the speed of light — stunning the world of physics — has reached the same result, scientists said [today]. The “positive outcome of the [second] test makes us more confident in the result,”&lt;/strong&gt; said Fernando Ferroni, president of the Italian Institute for Nuclear Physics. Ferroni is one of 160 physicists involved in the international collaboration known as OPERA (Oscillation Project with Emulsion Tracking Apparatus) that performed the experiment. While the second experiment “has made an important test of consistency of its result,” Ferroni [said], more tests are needed. There is still a large crowd of skeptical physicists who suspect that the original measurement done in September was an error. Should the results stand, they would upend more than a century of modern physics. In the first round of experiments, a massive detector buried in a mountain in Gran Sasso, Italy, recorded neutrinos generated at the CERN [European Council for Nuclear Research] particle accelerator on the French-Swiss border arriving 60 nanoseconds sooner than expected. In recent weeks, the OPERA team tightened the packets of neutrinos that CERN sent sailing toward Italy. Such tightening removed some uncertainty in the neutrinos’ speed. The detector still saw neutrinos moving faster than light.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=" font-family:&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;mso-fareast-Times New Roman&amp;quot;; background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow;mso-fareast-language:EN-CA"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.examiner.com/human-rights-in-national/first-live-gulf-dolphin-found-since-bp-oil-spill?CID=examiner_alerts_article" target="_blank" title="First live Gulf dolphin found since BP oil 'spill'"&gt;First live Gulf dolphin found since BP oil 'spill'&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The first live dolphin has been found in the Gulf of Mexico since the nation's largest eco-catastrophe in history, the TransOcean BP deep sea oil explosion where oil is still leaking.

 &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Of course, I agree with you. We both know the probable flaws in Mike's recon, particularly as it relates to the tropical stuff. Your response is also why I chose not to read the published version of his letter. It would be too aggravating. The only way to deal with this whole issue is to show in a detailed study that his estimates are clearly deficient in multi-centennial power, something that you actually did in your Perspectives piece, even if it was not clearly stated because of editorial cuts. It is puzzling to me that a guy as bright as Mike would be so unwilling to evaluate his own work a bit more objectively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Ed [Cook]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://junkscience.com/2011/11/29/climategate-2-0-schmidt-make-data-available-in-impenetrable-as-possible-form/" target="_blank" title="Climategate 2.0: Schmidt — Make data available in ‘impenetrable-as-possible form’"&gt;Climategate 2.0: Schmidt — Make data available in ‘impenetrable-as-possible form’&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;From the Climategate 2.0 collection, NASA’s Gavin Schmidt and and Michael Mann’s RealClimate collaborator complains about persistent skeptics and finally offers a solution:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;… Frankly, I would simply put the whole CRU database (in an as-impenetrable-as-possible form) up on the web site along with a brief history of it’s provenance (and the role of the NMSs) and be done with it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://wattsupwiththat.com/2011/11/29/new-tool-all-climategate-emails-in-order-in-excel/" target="_blank" title="New Tool – all Climategate emails in order in Excel"&gt;New Tool – all Climategate emails in order in Excel&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Buffy Minton who provided the email Mime data has produced a spreadsheet of Climategate 1 and 2 emails in chronological order.

Called the Spanish flu, it had actually appeared during a series of&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.whale.to/vaccine/sf1.html"&gt;experimental vaccinations&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;at Camp Funston in Kansas. From Camp Funston, infections roared out across the land and around the globe. Estimates of the total dead were as high as 100 million around the world. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sunshine-project.org/publications/pr/pr091003.html"&gt;We know scientists have been paid to recreate the 1918 flu.&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;We know that CDC has been creating splices of Avian, Porcine, and Human flu identical to that claimed to cause the "Pandemic" of 2009. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;And now we have this modified H5N1 flu that can be weaponized in just 12 steps, being made public. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;Is that so that when this de-population bomb is unleashed by the ultra-rich to get us icky-poo poor off of "their" planet they can shrug and say, "We don't know who did it; everyone knows how to make this stuff?" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;As Andrew Carnegie himself openly declared, the ultra-rich often see themselves as a separate and distinct species from the rest of humanity, and as a matter of record, some religions see themselves as humans while outsiders are merely cattle in human form. That such people might exterminate 90% of the human population to make more room for themselves is hardly a new idea. Tom Clancy postulated that very scenario in "Rainbow Six." And history validates that one nation will often commit genocide against another merely to make room. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;One parting thought before you get your "special" vaccine to keep you alive while the people who made you rich start to die; Newly engineered life forms are notoriously unstable. When first discovered, the Ebola virus was mutating as much as 10% of its RNA strand with each generation. An H5N1 wearing a new set of designer genes might easily mutate into form against which the "special" vaccine might not protect you. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;Just something to think about.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204452104577059830626002226.html#articleTabs%3Darticle" target="_blank" title="Climategate 2.0"&gt;Climategate 2.0&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The new release of emails was timed to coincide with the second anniversary of the original climategate leak and with the upcoming United Nations climate summit in Durban, South Africa.

Along the way we have seen data manipulation, siting of temperature sensors near sources of heat (in one notorious case right next to a trash incinerator), collusion with the corporate media to keep opposing data from the public, even as the former head of Greenpeace admits making up claims about Greenland losing its ice cover, Phil Jones admits warming stopped 15 years ago (which anyone living through the last four hard winters already knew) and Al Gore insisting that the temperature of the Earth's core is "millions of degrees" while he uses computer generated images of collapsing arctic ice for his "documentary" (which has already been denounced by the British courts for containing numerous lies and misrepresentations.) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;The global warming cult is not interested in saving the Earth, and shamelessly exploits the public's desire to save the Earth to enrich and empower themselves, living like royalty as they tell the rest of the people they must live more poorly. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;color:#002060;"&gt;"We need to get some broad based support, to capture the public's imagination...
