There have been some interesting developments lately for gay men and lesbians who bravely want to serve this nation in the military. Sadly, some of the developments were not encouraging.
On September 21, Senate Republicans blocked a defense bill that included a conditional repeal of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (DADT) policy. Even though the repeal would have been dependent on the completion of a Defense Department study and subsequent certification that it would not harm military effectiveness, the Republicans wouldn't even let the bill come to the floor for a debate.
The measure had already passed in the House and in the Senate Armed Services Committee. But that apparently made no difference.

On September 23, the FBI headlined, "Aafia Siddiqui Sentenced in Manhattan Federal Court to 86 Years for Attempting to Murder US Nationals in Afghanistan and Six Additional Crimes." More on its press release below.
No matter that she's completely innocent, and has been a US political prisoner since her March 30, 2003 abduction, incarceration, torture, prosecution, and conviction on bogus charges. Her case is one of America's most egregious examples of horrific abuse and injustice, climaxed by her virtual life sentence for an alleged crime she never committed.
Yet she was convicted for these claimed felonies:

Almost 20 years have passed since the conclusion of 20th century's longest, most erosive war which was brutally imposed on the defenseless people of Iran by a belligerent and aggressive dictator who was finally pushed to death by the same people who had once persuaded, funded, aided and supported him in attacking and invading the new-born Iran of post-revolution days.
The expansionistic ambitions of the beloved puppet of the White House who was granted the honorary citizenship of Detroit as a reward for his unconditional subservience to the United States, transpired to be a deadly pandemic which claimed the lives of more than 400,000 innocent Iranians who witnessed the most breathtaking years the country had experienced contemporarily.
With the intention of revitalizing the forgotten pan-Arabist sentiments of the 1950s, confronting an emerging Shiite power in the Persian Gulf region and taking over some of the strategic parts of Iran including the Arab-speaking province of Khuzestan and the triple islands of Abu Musa, Lesser Tunb and Greater Tunb which were handed over to Iran 9 years earlier in a trilateral agreement between Iran, the protectorate of Ras Al-Khaimah and the representatives of British forces in the Persian Gulf, Saddam Hussein unilaterally nullified the 1975 Algiers Agreement in 1980 and attacked Iran.

It is crystal clear that Israel, the arrogant, fanatical and belligerent Jewish state is trying hard to undermine Turkey. Israel feels that its hegemony in the Middle East is being challenged by Turkish efforts to reassert the country's national interests by enhancing relations with Islamic neighbors and also by courageously opposing Israeli ethnic cleansing and other manifestly criminal policies against the Palestinians.
In recent days and weeks, Israel has been quite furious about the recent referendum in Turkey which granted the government additional powers to assert real democracy and prevent the recurrence of military coups.

Let me get this straight. The GOP, under Geo. W. Bush (Remember him? Trillions for the rich. Diddly squat for the rest of us), crashed and trashed the U.S. and world economy, threw millions of Americans out of their jobs -- those jobs not already sent overseas -- gambled away trillions of hard-earned life-savings, and sank millions of home mortgages underwater.
Ever since then, in almost perfect lockstep, the Republicans in Congress have threatened, delayed, filibustered, and in every other way they could think of obstructed every single piece of legislation that offered help in any way, shape, or form to those millions thrown out of work, those millions more far-underemployed, teachers and nurses and firefighters and police facing layoffs by state and local governments in crisis, and all the rest of us everyday Americans wanting nothing more than to provide for our families and to make a worthwhile contribution to our nation but threatened with abject ruin at every turn.

The PakAlert Press, and other popular 9/11 conspiracy websites controlled by the CIA, and known for promoting the controlled demolition theory of the Twin Towers, i.e., an Inside Job, as 9/18/2010 has the following headline: [1]
Pictures Prove Mini Nukes Caused 9-11 Devastation
Posted on PakAlert on September 18, 2010 // 8 Comments
(http://www.pakalertpress.com/2010/09/18/pictures-prove-mini-nukes-caused-9-11-devastation/) and Proven 9-11 Nukes = US Government Involvement
These recent articles at PakAlert CONTRADICT their previous position that 9/11 was an Israeli Inside Job (Israeli connection, 9/11, ALL THE PROOF IN THE WORLD!!) and they now proclaim loudly:
This understanding means we cannot blame the highly unconventional Ground Zero devastation on thermite/thermate/super thermate and “controlled demolition” any more than we can blame it on “jet fuel” or “box cutters.”
Even a child can see there is something wrong with these pictures.
A=Controlled Demolition of a hotel, B=North Tower, C=Hiroshima.
However, before getting on the mini-nuke/Directed Energy Weapon (DEW) bridge-to-nowhere, ask yourself this question:
If PakAlert is suddenly promoting the mini-nuke/Directed Energy Weapon (DEW) story featuring Judy Wood (previously marginalized and isolated from the 9/11 Truth Movement and considered a Kook [2]), there can only be two possibilities:
Option 1. Mini Nukes and Judy Wood are the truth. The CIA now, after years of promoting 9/11 Truth (mis/disinformation) admit:
And on September 18, 2010, The Powers That Be (TPTB, a non-conspiracy acronym [3]) had a change of heart (or maybe grew a conscience) and directed their agents, in this case PakAlert and the CIA, to tell the common man the "truth" about what really happened: that is, it was mini-nuke/Directed Energy Weapon (DEW) instead of controlled demolition that cause the Twin Towers to collapse on 9/11. Unlikely. Click here to read a 9-point refutation of the idea that nuclear devices were used to destroy the WTC buildings.
All you can say about a theory of Mini-nukes and Space Beam weapons is that it is a possible explanation, but that doesn't mean it's true. In fact, the recent disclosure from the CIA-controlled sites, who replaced an impossible explanation of the collapse with a plausible explanation, should alert everyone the Mini-nukes and the Space Beam weapon story (for WTC 1 & 2) cannot be true.
Dr. Judy Wood's research confirms a DEW was used to make the impact holes in the Twin Towers and to demolish WTC 7 (without making a sound) but a DEW explanation cannot explain the collapse of the Twin Towers because:
WTC 7 was a bottom-up a gravity-assisted collapse with a small debris field, while WTC 1 and 2 were primarily top-down, virtually unassisted by gravity and showered debris in a wide radius as their frames essentially "peeled" outward. FEMA: WTC Study, Ch. 5 (05/02) [4]
Option 2. The mini-nukes/DEW is the new story behind the story, behind the story of how the World Trade Center I and II collapsed (highly probable).

This is what happens when you have a conservative administration running a state government:
When New Jersey Governor Chris Christie took office eight months ago, he hit the ground running. He wasted no time in slashing funds for education and various other public services that benefit the "little people", while at the same time giving huge tax breaks to New Jerseyans making more than $400,000 per year.
But that wasn't enough. Now he's going after women's bodies.

America's hidden history is ugly and disturbing. No nation ever matched it. To Iraq alone, over the past two decades, it includes ongoing genocide, destruction, terror, occupation, and contamination - a horrendous combination of crimes, unmentioned in Western discourse.
Environmental Engineering Professor Souad N. Al-Azzawi documents them, including in his report titled, "Crime of the Century: Iraq's Occupation and DU Contamination," a detailed account of US culpability.

September 11, 2010 was the 9th anniversary of the sudden collapse and pulverization into fine toxic dust (except for the thermite-sectioned steel beams), of the three World Trade Center towers (1, 2 & 7). What really happened on 9/11, contrary to the mainstream media-promulgated Bush/Cheney White House conspiracy theories, is becoming increasingly clear. The most recent among many clinchers is the fact that the dust at Gound Zero has been found, conclusively, to contain large amounts of weapons-grade nanothermite, a highly explosive substance that is only manufactured for the US military and is only used for demolition purposes.
There are now significant numbers of clear-headed, intelligent, patriotic US citizens (as well as hundreds of millions of equally clear-headed critical thinkers worldwide) who have finally seen through the provably-untrue Bush/Cheney White House-generated, Mother-of-All-Conspiracy-Theories about who and what they wanted us to believe brought down the towers on the morning and afternoon of 9/11/01.

“Ladies and gentlemen step right up and get your tickets to see the new circus event in town, yes the new GOP pledge, it has everything you could ever want or need…”
Or so that’s what I’m hearing being yelled at the newsstands down on the corner.
So now, at what seams the peak (if there really is one) of the huge disappointment that the democrats and the Obama administration has turned out to be with their out of control spending, lack of genuine transparency, and the fact that the US citizens are indeed upset so let not a good crisis go to waste...
