Monsanto, Blackwater and GM crop saboteurs
By Rady Ananda
Food Freedom
Agribusiness giant Monsanto, which genetically modifies plants to exude or tolerate pesticide or to produce nonviable seed, hired the services of the mercenary firm Blackwater to spy on activists, Jeremy Scahill reports. A death-tech firm weds a hit squad.
This is no doubt in response to a decade of GM crop sabotage efforts around the globe. Since the publicly-announced introduction of GM crops in 1996, concerned citizens have vandalized such crops every single year somewhere on the planet. Several thousand GM plants have been partially or wholly destroyed. (See brief history below.)
By Way of Deception, We Shall do War
By Deanna Spingola
Lenin (Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov) said, "The establishment of a central bank is 90% of communizing a nation." 1 Worldwide control obviously requires extraordinary organization, superior weaponry and high technology (like HAARP), political power and monopoly control of all the resources. On February 17, 1950, James P. Warburg declared to the U.S. Senate, "We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent." 2 In Russia and China and other countries, the elite used thugs for their violent conquest of existing leaders.
Life in Devastated Haiti
by Stephen Lendman
Nine months after the January 12 earthquake, Haitians still have little relief. Over one and a half million left homeless continue struggling to survive, despite billions in aid raised or pledged. It's for development, predatory NGOs, not them. That's the problem, and they suffering as a result, little media attention paid to their plight.
On September 15, Los Angeles Times writer Joe Mozingo headlined, "No plan in sight for Haiti's homeless," saying:
The Fraudulent Criminalization of Marijuana

Start again with a clean sheet, Palestinians
by Stuart Littlewood
So criminal within itself, it flinches from upholding the rule of international law. So corrupt, it happily outsources its foreign policy to terrorists in Tel Aviv. The idea that America acts as an honest broker for peace between its fellow cut-throat Israel and their victim, Palestine, on whose neck the Zionist jackboot is firmly planted, is a joke that is only funny in the hysterical sense.
The idea that any country, let alone America, would promote talks where one party is expected to make concessions to another which is bent on land-theft and whose government can only survive if it continues to defy international law, is madness. But Obama is up for it.
Why did Palestinian leaders allow themselves to be sucked into this instead of going over America's head to the UN and campaigning intelligently for implementation of the rulings the world community had already made?
When will white people become civilized?
By Dennis Rahkonen
Discovery and "settlement" of America involved horrid genocide against multiple millions of native inhabitants whose desperate, surviving progeny live dirt poor in godforsaken places where substance abuse, crime, and stratospheric joblessness are the cruel, never-remedied norm.
What the European conquerors took, with a hypocrite's Bible in one hand and a dripping sword in the other, their later-generation offspring now rule with a callous disregard for the acute hardship that it's the Indian's "fate" to endure amid the dust and tumbleweeds, or swamps and mosquitoes, where a beaten people were forced to relocate after their slaughter finally stopped.
And let's not forget slavery. No, by all that's holy, let's not do that!
From "Hizzhonor" to Dishonor
by Stephen Lendman
An earlier article discussed Chicago politics under father and son Daley - Richard J. (mayor from April 20, 1955 - December 20, 1976) and Richard M. (mayor since April 24, 1989), both called "Hizzhonor" or "Hizzhonor Da Mare."
Last winning a sixth term on February 27, 2007 by a 70% majority, most observers expected he'd seek another in 2011, but not so. The Chicago Tribune, on September 7, announced it, headlining, "Daley won't run for re-election: 'I have done my best,' saying:
CLEARING THE FOG
Jim Prues
Growing up in the fog of the dominant culture has left its mark on us all. Whether this fog really exists and what it consists of are fabulous questions. While it is often argued otherwise, from the World5 perspective, the fog is evident, pervasive and tremendously destructive.
The fog began ages ago when, having learned language, we began talking about the past and future, which eventually imparted them with an illusory sense of reality. So much has this occurred that by the time we reached modern times we tacitly accepted the notion of past, present and future as being a continuum.
A false notion. The past is gone and tomorrow never comes. And yet we feel a sense of continuity in our lives. We see the effects of change moment-by-moment, and yet our awareness remains continuous. It may well be that our awareness connects with something outside of time, oh, say an Eternal Awareness.
Triumph of the Money Party!!! Warren's role downgraded, reports to Geithner
The White House snatched back one of the few bones it's thrown to the people outraged at the looting of the United States Treasury by failed financial concerns - the big banks and Wall Street. The promised appointment Elizabeth Warren as head of the new agency to protect consumers from the financial services industry has been seriously downgraded. Instead of running the Consumer Finance Protection Agency, Warren's role has been diminished to that of special assistant to the president and adviser to Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner.
"President Obama, sidestepping a possibly heated confirmation battle, will appoint Harvard law professor Elizabeth Warren as a special advisor to the Treasury Department to launch the government's powerful new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, according to two Democratic officials familiar with the decision." LA Times, Sept 15
An interim appointment would have given the no-nonsense Warren the full authority to structure consumer bureau in the interests of the people. A special adviser role is defined in a New York Times article as follows:
Hypocrisy Defined: Another Round of Peace Talks
by Stephen Lendman
Dealing with Washington and Israel is like swimming with sharks. Get out of the water or be eaten. Achieving an equitable Israeli/Palestinian peace settlement is no more likely now than ever. Both sides know it but pretend otherwise, suggesting perhaps a finessed or arranged resolution - a sham one or capitulation if anything is agreed.
On September 15, the latest Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt round ended with no progress, Haaretz saying both "sides seem no closer to a compromise on West Bank settlements."
Al Jazeera headlined "Slow progress in Egypt peace talks," saying "Latest round of negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians make little headway....The only agreement the two sides arrived (at) was to meet for the scheduled talks in Jerusalem on" September 15.
