The British Government has said it is "deeply concerned" by reports of human rights abuses in Bahrain. So why would it give military training to the Saudi National Guard to help quell anti-regime protesters? This edition of Press TV News Analysis will discuss whether this is another mixed message by the UK on human rights, and why Bahrain's case may be heading to the ICC based on numerous accounts of human rights violations.

Next Tuesday, President Obama will visit Puerto Rico. We hope that during his time there, he'll address the ongoing First Amendment and human rights violations that the ACLU has been investigating and documenting since 2004. Over the last two years, since Gov. Luis Fortuño took office, police brutality and suppression of free speech and peaceful assembly have escalated to an alarming level. http://www.aclu.org/blog/free-speech-human-rights/president-obama-address-police-brutality-puerto-rico
As Congress is poised to debate and vote on raising the debt ceiling, Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) today took to the House Floor to remind fellow Members why we are in debt in the first place: wars and tax cuts for the rich. Kucinich urged Members to take back our authority to print money from the Federal Reserve (the Fed) and to use that authority to invest in America by putting Americans back to work:
The film TAMBIEN LA LLUVIA (Even the Rain), directed by Iciar Bollain and written by Scottish screenwriter Paul Laverty, is about, in the director's words, [resistance and friendship. It's a personal journey -- an adventure undertaken by characters which brings the past into the present.] The story intertwines Columbus' arrival in the Americas with the making of a film; it mixes the Spanish crown's exploitation of gold in the 16th century with the fight for water in Cochabamba in the year 2000. The film takes us from the fiction of a period film to the reality of a film set in a small Bolivian city. And from that reality to another which is deeper and more dramatic, that faced by people with practically no rights, prohibited by law from collecting even the rain. But Tambien la Lluvia (Even the Rain) does much more than compare historic events. It transcends the detail and delves into something much deeper and more universal. Deep down it's a story about loyalty, camaraderie, and empathy.
In Nazi Germany they didn't arrest people for dancing. America has become the most repressive country on earth.
This is a great video that deserves to go viral about how we buy the lie. It is vital to the Elite’s paradigm that we are continuously distracted or scared. This is so that we never see the REAL cause of our problems, the Elite that own and control our paradigm. The Elite will create any lie or enemy necessary to fool us into thinking the REAL enemy is Brand X. The reality is that there is no bigger threat to our way of life and freedom than our banking system and the families that own it.

The people of the world not in a complete coma are rising, and it all heads to Palestine. There will be justice in Palestine!
On May 18, 2011, activists staged a rally at the War Memorial Building, across the plaza from Baltimore’s City Hall. They demanded economic justice from the City Council and a budget that will ensure that thousands of young people will be employed this summer. They also urged the City Council to “change priorities and to make full employment the issue...and not to balance the budget on the backs of the poor.” See: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_208057989213922
While I was recording my blog in Russia I heard gunshots so I looked outside my window and I saw Sarah Palin. I'm not much into politics but hearing Palin say things about Russia inspired me to make this video. Sarah Palin threatens war with Russia
