Healthcare.Gov Still Troubled
By Stephen Lendman
Obama promised web site problems fixed by November 30. Another promise made. Another broken. Another lie followed.
Obama advisor Jeffrey Zients heads web site repair efforts. Load times are faster, he said. "The site is now stable and operating at its intended capacity, with greatly improved performance." Health and Human Services (HHS) claims 50,000 people can access the site simultaneously. "(M)ore that 800,000 consumer(s)" can do so daily, it added.
Zients and HHS stopped short of indicating how many people successfully enrolled since November 30.
Doing so involves completing all required steps necessary. It includes successfully transmitting accurate information to insurers.
The Lessons of Ukraine and Russia: A Readjustment for Survival
DENNIS MASON interview of Lyndon LaRouche
DENNIS MASON: Good evening; it's Friday, November 29, 2013. This is our weekly broadcast of the Friday night webcast with Mr. LaRouche. My name is Dennis Mason. Joining me in the studio tonight is Jason Ross. We will be posing a series of questions to Mr. LaRouche. Lyn, we'll dive right in.
The first question comes from an institutional contact around Washington, DC, which I will read. He writes: "Mr. LaRouche, with the Thanksgiving holiday past, every member of Congress seeking re-election is now in the active phase of campaigning. The Glass-Steagall issue remains a prominent issue with growing support within the American population, among state legislators, and in Congress.
Day of Palestinian Rage
By Dr. Elias Akleh
Last Friday, the 29th of November, was the annual observance of the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People as dedicated by the UN General Assembly (resolution 32/40 B). On the same day Palestinians had called for “Day of Rage” demonstrations against Israeli theft of Palestinian land especially the on going theft of Naqab (Negev) area.
The generation old Palestinian/Israeli peace negotiations have been futile due to Israeli perpetual theft of Palestinian land and the building of more Jewish colonies (settlement). Under the American pressure the Palestinian Authority agreed to restart peace talks this summer after a three-year stalemate. Yet immediately after this the Israeli government had approved the building of thousands more housing units on usurped Palestinian land in the West Bank and East Al-Quds (Jerusalem). More Palestinian homes were also demolished by Israeli army in Al-Quds.
Global Protests Against Bedouin Ethnic Cleansing
By Stephen Lendman
Around 40,000 Bedouins are targeted. They're Israeli citizens. They're considered nonpersons. They're treated that way. They're denied all rights.
The so-called Begin-Prawer Plan (Law for Arranging Bedouin Settlement in the is ruthlessly racist. It legitimizes ethnic cleansing. It wants Bedouin land for exclusive Jewish development.
It authorizes destroying Bedouin homes. It calls for dozens of villages to be leveled. It sanctions mass ethnic cleansing on a scale not seen since 1948. Israeli authorities are trampling on the rights of their own citizens.
According to Association for Civil Rights in Israel attorney Rawia Aburabia:
Israel's plan "will cause the displacement and forced eviction of dozens of villages and tens of thousands of Bedouin residents, dispossessing them of their property and historical rights to their lands, destroying the social fabric of their communities, and sealing the fate of thousands of families into poverty and unemployment."
Contesting Stolen Honduran Election
by Stephen Lendman
Xiomara Castro
Previous articles discussed it. Honduran elections are won the old-fashioned way. They're stolen. State-sponsored electoral theft is official policy. It's longstanding.
November 24 was no exception. Presidential elections were held. Eight candidates contested. Only two mattered.
LIBRE party (Liberty and Refoundation) candidate Xiomara Castro challenged ruling National party's Juan Orlando Hernandez.
The National Front of Popular Resistance (FNRP) established LIBRE. It did so following the 2009 coup.
Dark Honduran and US forces collaborated. President Manuel Zalaya was ousted. Fascist governance replaced him. Hernandez represents it.
JFK and 9/11: The Common Threads
Robert Bonomo
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.
Proposed Senate Bill Risks Undermining Geneva
by Stephen Lendman
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.
A Tale of Two Boycotts
By Katherine Smith, PhD
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. [2]
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.

Bashing Ukraine
by Stephen Lendman
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.
US/Israeli Iran Policy Remains Unchanged
by Stephen Lendman
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.
