Dmitry Orlov presentation
Excerpt:
There are two components to human nature, the social and the solitary. The solitary is definitely the more highly evolved, and humanity has surged forward through the efforts of brilliant loners and eccentrics. Their names live on forever precisely because society was unable to extinguish their brilliance or to thwart their initiative. Our social instincts are atavistic and result far too reliably in mediocrity and conformism. We are evolved to live in small groups of a few families, and our recent experiments that have gone beyond that seem to have relied on herd instincts that may not even be specifically human. When confronted with the unfamiliar, we have a tendency to panic and stampede, and on such occasions people regularly get trampled and crushed underfoot: a pinnacle of evolution indeed! And so, in fashioning a survivable future, where do we put our emphasis: on individuals and small groups, or on larger entities - regions, nations, humanity as a whole? I believe the answer to that is obvious.

An arrest. Stanford surrenders to FBI.
R. Allen Stanford, under investigation in an alleged $8 billion fraud involving sales of certificates of deposit through his Antiguan bank, surrendered to federal agents yesterday, his attorney said.
The case is one of the largest alleged financial frauds in U.S. history and comes just months after New York financier Bernard L. Madoff pleaded guilty to charges in a Ponzi scheme of up to $50 billion.
Stanford, 59, was taken into custody yesterday by FBI agents who were waiting outside his girlfriend's house in Fredericksburg, Va., said Dick DeGuerin, an attorney for the Texas financier.
"Federal agents in black SUVs surrounded his girlfriend's house this afternoon, and just sat there," DeGuerin said. "I told him to walk out and introduce himself. So he did, and he asked them, 'If you've got a warrant, take me into custody. If you don't, I'm going to Houston.' And they did, so they arrested him."
EU reappoints Barroso, nears guarantees for Ireland
June 19 (Bloomberg) -- European Commission President Jose Barroso won backing for a second five-year term, while leaders moved closer to overcoming Ireland’s veto of a treaty designed to boost Europe’s global role.
At a European Union summit in Brussels, Barroso, 53, a former prime minister of Portugal, promised further steps to end the deepest recession since World War II, tighten financial regulations and combat global warming.
Europe’s “response to this economic and financial crisis and to have progress in fighting climate change” are “the immediate priorities,” Barroso told a news conference early today after the summit’s first session.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates returned to work Wednesday afternoon after breaking his upper right arm in a fall on the ice outside his Washington home, a Pentagon spokesman said. Gates suffered a broken humerus, the bone that connects the shoulder and elbow, Defense Department spokesman Geoff Morrell said.
Fuckface Joe Lieberman thrilled to throw some gasoline on Iran civil unrest
As Iranians continue to protest the handling of their country's June 12 presidential election, reaction to the vote continues to pour in from around the world. U.S. Senator Joseph Lieberman (Independent, Connecticut) tells RFE/RL correspondent Heather Maher in Washington that Iranians shouldn't back down in their demonstrations. Eventually, he says, they will be rewarded with freedom.
RFE/RL: What is your personal reaction to the events in Iran? Have you been surprised by the scale and energy of the protests?
Senator Joseph Lieberman: I have been both surprised and encouraged by the scope of the protests. It's really been thrilling to me, and, I would say, thrilling to people throughout America and throughout the world because we understand how much courage it takes to stand in the face of a very repressive regime, which has strength on its side.
But what we're watching in Iran today reminds me very much of what we watched at an earlier time in Budapest and Prague and other places where people have risen up and through the strength of their numbers together have altered the course of their future and of history even against very strong regimes.

The Green Still Resists
It’s difficult to know where to start with this. Perhaps by registering just how insulting it is for the representative of the imperial killing machine – responsible directly and indirectly for millions of deaths in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Lebanon, Somalia – to lecture the dispossessed and massacred Palestinians on their occasional attempts to strike back. We can be sure that the sleeping children Obama is concerned with here are the Israeli children who live on the stolen land of Palestine, not the unsleeping, traumatised children of Gaza, several hundred of whom were burnt and dismembered six months ago. Then it’s worth remarking how the erudition and intelligence shown in Obama’s pre-presidential book 'Dreams from my Father' have been immediately crushed on his assumption of the presidency. How otherwise could his historical vision be so partial and simplistic? There was certainly a key non-violent aspect to the struggle for civil rights in the United States, but pretending that violence played no role in the process makes it necessary to ignore the American Civil War (half a million dead), Nat Turner, Malcolm X, the Black Panthers and rioting Chicago. Violence, or the threat of violence, was important in South Africa and India too, and certainly in Obama’s ancestral Kenya, and was the dominant anti-imperial strategy in Vietnam and Algeria.

FDA threatens to SEIZE all natural products that DARE TO MENTION H1N1 swine flu
(NaturalNews) In an effort to censor any online text that might inform consumers of the ability of natural products to protect consumers from H1N1 influenza A, the FDA is now sending out a round of warning letters, threatening to "take enforcement action... such as seizure or injunction for violations of the FFDC Act without further notice."
"Firms that fail to take correction action," the FDA warns, "may also be referred to the FDA's Office of Criminal Investigations for possible criminal prosecution for violations of the FFDC Act and other federal laws."
The message is crystal clear: No product may be described as protecting against or preventing H1N1 infections unless it is approved by the FDA. And which products has the FDA approved? Tamiflu (the anti-viral drug that most people will never have access to), and soon the new H1N1 vaccine that's being manufactured at a cost of one billion dollars (paid to Big Pharma by the taxpayers). This vaccine, of course, will be utterly useless because H1N1 will undoubtedly mutate between now and the time the vaccine is ready, rendering the vaccine useless.

Missing bond mystery
Although on the surface, this story appears to be a non-event, if we consider some of the released facts about this case, you will understand why I consider it to be a huge story.
On June 8th, the Asia News reported the following story:
"Italy's financial police (Guardia italiana di Finanza) has seized US bonds worth US 134.5 billion from two Japanese nationals at Chiasso (40 km from Milan) on the border between Italy and Switzerland. They include 249 US Federal Reserve bonds worth US$ 500 million each, plus ten Kennedy bonds and other US government securities worth a billion dollars each. Italian authorities have not yet determined whether they are real or fake, but if they are real the attempt to take them into Switzerland would be the largest financial smuggling operation in history; if they are fake, the matter would be even more mind-boggling because the quality of the counterfeit work is such that the fake bonds are undistinguishable from the real ones.

To kill a tree - Conclusion: The war on humankind
- In this, the concluding part in the series, we will take a look at the multi faceted war being carried out against mankind by an oligarchical elite who regard themselves as the `proxy` lords of our world. They call themselves by many names, or no name at all, but we know them as the Illuminati.
- For those involved in this field of research, the word "Illuminati", applies to those individuals and secret societies who worship Lucifer, and continue to further the `great work of ages` and aspire to the attainment of a One World dictatorship. The order's existence in essence if not in name can be traced back to Ancient Babylon, during the sixth century BC, with the formulation of the heretical Kabbalah. The Illuminati claim to represent the descendants of the Fallen Angels mentioned in The Book Of Genesis Chapter Six:
The American Empire is Bankrupt
This week marks the end of the dollar’s reign as the world’s reserve currency. It marks the start of a terrible period of economic and political decline in the United States. And it signals the last gasp of the American imperium. That’s over. It is not coming back. And what is to come will be very, very painful.
Barack Obama, and the criminal class on Wall Street, aided by a corporate media that continues to peddle fatuous gossip and trash talk as news while we endure the greatest economic crisis in our history, may have fooled us, but the rest of the world knows we are bankrupt. And these nations are damned if they are going to continue to prop up an inflated dollar and sustain the massive federal budget deficits, swollen to over $2 trillion, which fund America’s imperial expansion in Eurasia and our system of casino capitalism. They have us by the throat. They are about to squeeze.

Hiding in plain sight: Israel's "clean break" from America is in progress
Note from author–To all young people–please force yourself to read this to the end, and if you still don’t understand, research it.
“An important step forward”
–this is what President Obama called Netanyahu’s most recent speech.
It is beyond my mental comprehension to understand why we, as Palestinians and Arabs, do not act on Israel’s long term plans and yet continue to react to their frequent petty games and distractions. The truth is that the Netanyahu speech was written back in 1996 but could not be delivered because Clinton did not agree with the “Clean Break” group and their plans at that time.
BBC caught in mass public deception with Iran propaganda
The BBC has again been caught engaging in mass public deception by using photographs of pro-Ahmadinejad rallies in Iran and claiming they represent anti-government protests in favor of Hossein Mousavi.
An image used by the L.A. Times on the front page of its website Tuesday showed Iranian President Ahmadinejad waving to a crowd of supporters at a public event.
In a story covering the election protests yesterday, the BBC News website used a closer shot of the same scene, but with Ahmadinejad cut out of the frame. The caption under the photograph read, ‘Supporters of Mir Hossein Mousavi again defied a ban on protests’.
The BBC photograph is clearly a similar shot of the same pro-Ahmadinejad rally featured in the L.A. Times image, yet the caption erroneously claims it represents anti-Ahmadinejad protesters.
No Light Unto Neighbors (or, "Let my Dena go!")
I have learned yesterday from the Daily Telegraph that an Orthodox Jewish couple are suing their neighbours in a block of flats because they say an “automatic security light breaks a religious prohibition.”
This is not a joke. It is a true story about two Jews who fail to 'love their neighbours'. “Dr Dena Coleman, the head teacher of a Jewish orthodox school, and her husband, Gordon, claim they are kept prisoner in their holiday flat on the Sabbath because when they leave it they trigger the light in the communal hallway.”
As if Jews didn’t suffer enough along their history. As if the Holocaust has never happened, Dena and Gordon are imprisoned in their holiday home by an electronic device. It is a well-established fact that electrons are negative at least symbolically, from now on they are anti-Semitic for real.

Another pointless death
You are being lied to by vermin who do not care for you or your loved ones. If need be they will slaughter all of you in a heartbeat. If it is deemed necessary they will detonate a Nuclear bomb in any European city to initiate the next round of their despicable plans. Please believe me and all those many like me who are risking our own freedom in the future by speaking the truth and therefore sticking our heads above the parapet, that you are being led like sheep. Do not let your children join their armies. Do not pay them tax if you can legally avoid doing so. Do not line the streets to applaud the dead cold bodies of your loved ones, slaughtered in their evil machinations and greedily filmed by their media to cast a positive and heroic light on the pointless deaths of your loved ones.
In short, please wake up. Please wake up. Please wake up. The time is running short, and they are having too many victories. You will all suffer if you continue to behave as bovine cattle ripe for the slaughter house. We who say these uncomfortable truths are your real friends. We are the ones who really care for your dead children, and for you, and for us all.
You are on the wrong side, if you could only see it. Please do the research that is a mere mouse click away, with an open mind to things you cannot now think possible, and educate yourselves. Do a search on New Pearl Harbour, or USS Liberty, or the truth about Bolshevism, or five dancing Israelis, or Odigo, or PNAC, or Neo Cons, or the Crazies, or Peter Power, or any of the other wealth of evidence that the world simply is not as you have been told.
The monster we face will one day come right through your front door, ignore it as you may.

Mousavi's Iran Contra/neocon/Mossad connections
They are all good friends and associates of Manuchehr Ghorbanifar (an Iranian arms merchant, an alleged MOSSAD double agent, and a key figure in the Iran/Contra Affair, the arms-for-hostages deals between Iran and the Reagan administration). In one or two, at most three, degrees of separation, these people hung out in the same circles and very likely drank to the same toasts.

They will go after our kids first with the poison vaccines
Schoolchildren could be first in line for swine flu vaccine this fall — and schools are being put on notice that they might even be turned into shot clinics.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Tuesday she is urging school superintendents around the country to spend the summer preparing for that possibility, if the government goes ahead with mass vaccinations.
Squalene: deadly adjuvant in vaccines
Micropaleontologist Dr. Viera Scheibner conducted research into the adverse effects of adjuvants in vaccines and wrote: Squalene “contributed to the cascade of reactions called “ Gulf War syndrome. GIs developed arthritis, fibromyalgia, lymphadenopathy, rashes, photosensitive rashes, malar rashes, chronic fatigue, chronic headaches, abnormal body hair loss, non-healing skin lesions, aphthous ulcers, dizziness, weakness, memory loss, seizures, mood changes, neuropsychiatric problems, anti-thyroid effects, anaemia, elevated ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, deadly Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Raynaud’s phenomenon with paroxysms of lack of blood in fingers and toes in fingers and toes, Sjorgren’s syndrome with blurred vision, chronic diarrhea, night sweats and low-grade fever.”

The RFID chip is a tyrant’s wet dream. If you step out of line, the man turns off your chip. It has been called by many as the Mark of the Beast. That isn’t stopping corporate America, including the U.S. Army, to start getting the public to love the RFID chip.

Homeland Security offers a program which will aid in your ability to fly without harassment from airport security if you accept the RFID chip.
The Judeo-Christian oxymoron or the real clash of civilizations
Christian churches as we know them are the last thing that Jesus had on his mind when he lead his revolt against the oral traditions of the Pharisees. What after the destruction of the Jerusalem temple was codified as the mother of all hate literature, the Babylonian Talmud, was nothing short of a Satanic heresy of the Old Testament or Torah.
Iranian instability facilitates Israeli attack
If Iran were to descend into chaos, the Jews would have an open window of opportunity in which to attack. Facing domestic turmoil, it would be difficult for Iranians to initiate a counter-attack against the Israelis.
The Jews would face many fronts around the World, but the counter-attack would be weakest if they were to strike while Iran is in tumult. I suspect the Israeli generals are chomping at the bit for Ahmadinejad to declare martial law and for Iran to fall apart, so that they can send their bombers to Tehran. Netanyahu need only win popular support for such an attack among the Israeli population.
Israel sees deal soon with Obama over settlements
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is negotiating a deal with Washington under which Israeli building in existing Jewish settlements could go forward in certain cases, Israeli and Western officials said on Tuesday.
In talks with U.S. President Barack Obama's Middle East envoy, Netanyahu has asserted that his government does not have the legal authority to stop building in cases in which tenders for new structures have already been awarded or when homes under construction have already been purchased.

Iran elections: massive psyops, hard to tell what's going on
There is a full effort of the "western" media and some expatriate Iranian organizations to de-legitimize the Iranian election despite the absence of any real evidence of voting fraud. These events show all characteristics of an engineered "color evolution".
As said before I find the reelection of Ahmadinejad quite plausible. He has done a lot for the poor and the elections were for a decent part class based. As Robert Fisk relates from someone not-regime-friendly in Tehran: [read more...]
Was the Iranian election a fraud?
That’s what our great western media sources want us to believe. While scanning through the coverage, I could not find one mainstream news article which covered the election results in an objective, unbiased manner. Either prominently displayed in the title or first paragraph, each of the articles suggest the election was a fraud.
It’s worth noting that Iran, unlike the US, does not use electronic voting machines which are easily tampered with. They actually have paper ballots. It’s also important to point out the health of their electoral process. They had an 85% turnout! We, “the champions of democracy” turnout only a fraction of that percentage for our presidential elections. In fact 2 out of 3 American citizens find something better to do during election day.

Truth Seeker Comment
Initially this website was taken in by reports alleging a potential landslide win for Mousavi. It soon became apparent however, that the Western mainstream media was acting in unison over the Iranian election. Together with Mousavi’s alleged links with neocon Michael Ledeen, it seems that we are seeing a disinformation campaign to discredit the Iranian election on par with the one to promote the fable of Saddam’s Weapon’s of Mass Destruction.
As we now know, that ultimately proved false but paved the way for the invasion of Iraq.
It’s anyone’s guess where this will lead but it’s as well to be wary of disinformation dressed up as ‘journalism’.
NORAD and NORTHCOM exercise planned for 6/18-24
PETERSON AFB, Colo. – North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command are planning to conduct a combined exercise June 18 - 24 that will incorporate several military exercises with a National Guard exercise. These linked exercises are referred to as ARDENT SENTRY 09. Events will take place in multiple venues across the country including Iowa, Kansas, Oregon, Wyoming, and off the East and West Coasts.
The exercise will allow several Department of Defense organizations and some federal and state partners to implement plans and respond to a variety of notional events. Historically, exercises like these have helped both DoD and other agencies review their processes and procedures and focus their future training efforts on closing gaps and identifying areas that need additional attention.
Major AS 09 venues include:
- NORAD’s AMALGAM DART exercise involving air defense activities at Camp Rilea, Oregon;
- The National Guard’s VIGILANT GUARD exercise focused on civil support with major activities in Des Moines, Iowa and Topeka, Kansas; and,
- A Nuclear Weapons Incident exercise (NUWAIX) with a U.S. Air Force response near Cheyenne, Wyoming;

US intel rivalry flares over British connection
For years, the CIA has had the right to appoint the station chief who runs US intelligence operations in London and liaises with MI6 and GCHQ. Now, the National Security Agency is arguing that they and not the CIA should run intelligence operations in the UK because they have more people on the ground and the work they do has far greater value to both countries.
NSA have found useful allies in both Admiral Denny Blair, the Director of National Intelligence and General Jim Jones, the National Security Adviser who have been very receptive to the argument that intelligence form should follow function and reflect the realities of the 21st century.
