Criminals leave signatures. There is consistency in their motives, methods, alibis and techniques. A detective from the Spanish National Police said that investigators knew within minutes of reaching the mangled remains of commuter trains in Madrid where almost 200 commuters were killed that the Basque terrorist group ETA had not carried out the attack- a fact which was concealed by the Spanish government for several days in a vain attempt to save an election. The investigators immediately saw that the signature was wrong; it just didn't smell right.
President Kennedy was murdered on November 22, 1963 and less than two years later American Marines entered South Vietnam beginning the US intervention that would end ten years later with the fall of Saigon and millions dead. Less than two years after the September 11th attacks in New York and Washington, the United States began the Iraq War, which would end eight years later with the withdrawal of the coalition forces, leaving Iraq destabilized and clearly within the sphere of Iranian influence.

On November 21, Senator Bob Corker (R. TN) introduced "S. 1765: A bill to ensure the compliance of Iran with agreements relating to Iran's nuclear program."
It's also called the Iran Nuclear Compliance Act (INCA) of 2013. It was referred to committee. No official summary is available. Nor the full text. Further action will follow. Perhaps before yearend.
House and Senate members are largely in lockstep on Iran. They're militantly hostile. Some more so than others.
Sentiment favors stiffer sanctions. House members passed more in July. Senate action depends on how discussions proceed going forward.
Corker is the ranking Republican Senate Foreign Relations Committee member. He wants so-called loopholes closed on terms agreed on in Geneva.

Who Were the first Boycotters in 1933, the Nazis or the Jews?
March 24 | April 1 |
I recently published two articles on the 75-year anniversary of Kristallnacht. [1]
Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass, happened 75 years ago when Nazi thugs conducted a wave of violent anti-Jewish pogroms on the streets of Berlin and other cities in Germany.
U.S. President Barack Obama issued a statement to commemorate the anniversary of Kristallnacht, stating that “the event foreshadowed the systematic slaughter of six million Jews and millions of other innocent victims.”
The first article, Kristallnacht 75th Anniversary: What Really Happened in Nazi Germany?, agrees with Obama that Kristallnacht foreshadowed the Holocaust, but points out that the murder of Ernst vom Rath by Herschel Grynszpan, a teenager, who thought vom Rath was the German ambassador, foreshadowed Kristallnacht.
The second article, Kristallnacht, Grynszpan and the Munich Agreement: Connect the World War Dots, documents that the Munich agreement foreshadowed Herschel Grynszpan and that the Versailles Treaty foreshadowed World War II. In other words 70 Million Died So The Jews Could Have Palestine.
On December 31, 2010, Jeff Rense (www.rense.com Alexa Traffic Rank: 5,682 with 5,675 sites Linking In) renamed the informed opinion essay The Nazi and Jewish Affair to Remember to 70 Million Died So The Jews Could Have Palestine. 70 million was featured on the front page of rense.com in the section, "Facts Are Facts" for 40 days.

The creation of the State of Israel, as it turns out, was not the silver lining around the dark cloud of desolation of two World Wars and the Holocaust. The creation of the State of Israel was a meticulous New World Order plan dating back to 1897, when a few wealthy Europeans led by the Rothschilds, not the Jewish people, wanted to create an understanding for the founding of a Jewish State. The few wealthy Europeans claimed that the “increase” in anti-Semitism present in the World at the end of the 19th Century would end if a people collectively known as “Jews” returned to their “rightful” historical homeland in Palestine.

A previous article said Ukraine dodged a bullet. It abandoned an expected EU alliance. It did the right thing. Western media bashing followed. More on that below.
Europe's economy is broken. Wrongheaded policies assure greater trouble ahead. Why board a sinking ship?
ECB policy doesn't work. Its Long-Term Refinancing Operation (LTRO) is its version of Fed QE. Major European banks are insolvent. In the past year, over $1.5 trillion was provided.
LTRO II is needed. Perhaps early next year. Maybe more will follow. At isssue is an endless destructive cycle. Digging a deeper hole is no way out of today's punishing one.

Dark forces run both countries. They want Geneva agreed on terms subverted. On November 30, Fars News headlined "Riyadh, Tel Aviv Cooperating to Sabotage Iran's (Nuclear) Program."
They're cooperating on a new computer worm. They want one more destructive than Stuxnet. In 2010, it infected Iran's Bushehr nuclear facility.
Operations were halted. Israel was blamed. So was Washington. Had the facility gone online infected, Iran's entire electrical power grid could have been shut down.

Multiple daily incidents reflect Israel's true face. Israel is no democracy. It's a ruthless, racist police state.
On November 26, the Palestinian Center for Human Rights (PCHR) headlined "In 2 Crimes of Extra-judicial Execution and Excessive Use of Force, Israeli Forces Kill 3 Palestinian Civilians in Yatta, South of Hebron."
These type incidents happen with disturbing regularity. Western media ignore them. PCHR strongly condemned what it called further proof of "Israeli forces' disregard for" civilian lives.
Two nonviolent Palestinian civilians were targeted north of Yatta. They posed no threat. They were driving a white Subaru.
They were traveling along a dirt road. A Renault Kangoo vehicle followed them.
"The Subaru was about to reach (a) bypass road where an Israeli infantry unit had been deployed in the farmlands around," said PCHR.
"Israeli soldiers directly opened fire at the vehicle, and in the meantime, other soldiers opened fire from the Renault vehicle as well."
Two Palestinians died from multiple gunshot wounds. They were struck in the chest, head, neck and pelvis.

On Sunday, November 24, Hondurans voted. Eight candidates contested for president. Only two mattered.
LIBRE party (Liberty and Refoundation) candidate Xiomara Castro challenged ruling National party's Juan Orlando Hernandez. A previous article explained.
It said business as usual prevailed. Fraud, intimidation and vote buying were rampant. So were political assassinations. Democracy was nowhere in sight.
Honduras has none. Fascist extremism is official policy. A cauldron of violence and repression persist. Washington offers full support. It does so disgracefully.
State Department spokeswoman Jen Psake congratulated Honduras for a "peaceful" election. She lied saying so. She did again calling it "generally transparent."

It's hard giving thanks when you're hungry. It's harder living in the world's richest country. It's harder still knowing government officials don't care. It's hardest of all wondering how you'll get by. More below on growing hunger and deprivation. It's increasing in America at a time trillions of dollars go for warmaking, corporate handouts, and other benefits for rich elites.
Giving thanks predated the republic. In 1621, Plymouth Pilgrims did so. They had nothing to do with originating the idea.
Native Americans did. They gave thanks for annual fall harvests. They did it centuries before settlers arrived.
On November 26, 1789, George Washington proclaimed the first national thanksgiving day.
He called it "a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favours of Almighty God."
In 1863, Lincoln used the occasion to boost Union Army morale and patriotic fervor.

Sixty-six years ago, on November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly adopted resolution 181, which partitioned the land of Palestine into two States: the “birth certificate” for Israel, and the “death certificate” for Palestine.
The Return (not the end of the Diaspora) of the Jews to their “rightful” historical homeland in 1947, and the creation of the Modern State of Israel in 1948, was the stated purpose of Zionism, a secular Jewish political movement that arose in Europe in the late 19th century.
Zionism is not to be confused with Judaism or Rothschild Zionism:
The creation of the State of Israel, as it turns out, was not the silver lining around the dark cloud of desolation of two World Wars and the Holocaust. The creation of the State of Israel was a meticulous New World Order plan dating back to 1897, when a few wealthy Europeans led by the Rothschilds — not the Jewish people — wanted to create an understanding for the founding of a Jewish State. The few wealthy Europeans claimed that the “increase” in the anti-Semitism present in the World at the end of the 19th Century would end if a people collectively known as “Jews” returned to their “rightful” historical homeland in Palestine.

Previous articles explained Obamacare deception. It's a healthcare rationing scheme. It's a scam to enrich insurers and other major providers.
Last August, the Wall Street Journal headlined "Many Health Insurers to Limit Choices of Doctors, Hospitals," saying:
"(O)nline health-insurance marketplace(s) will present some tough choices for consumers."
Indiana University Health is the state's largest provider. Consumers are in for a rude awakening. Many will find doctors they rely on excluded from new plan options. Seeing them requires paying costs out-of-pocket.
