Dan Hannan ~ How the EU pays to keep Africa in Poverty

Daniel Hannan addressing the European Parliament plenary session in Strasbourg on 13th June 2013.

Africa is a good example of Western double standards. The West is always ready to export democracy and remove "dictators" from power when a nation is sitting on natural resources. This is not the case when Western corporations are already extracting natural resources with the help of a corrupt dictator or a political party.
The people in the West pay for all of these activities but all profits are private. The media looks the other way, because the real criminals (corruptors) own the mass media.

Detroit vs. New York: A Violent Tale of Two Cities

July 29 (Bloomberg) -- In today's "Single Best Chart," Bloomberg's Scarlet Fu displays the level of violent crime in Detroit in New York City over the past 30 years. She speaks on Bloomberg Television's "Bloomberg Surveillance."

Bankruptcy or Taxation without Representation

In government, the trend so far seems to indicate that vested interests much prefer "Taxation without Representation," as opposed to reformative bankruptcy. "The State" can tax to absurdity because the culture has been trained to accept anything. What kind of productive framework is there to reorganize into? Nothing!

Can Cyber Attacks Prompt the Next Financial Crisis?

He speaks on Bloomberg Television's "Bloomberg Surveillance."

Webbot Clif High Wujo, August 2013 ALTA Report

Webbot Clif High Wujo, Written ALTA Report  for August

Earth is about to grow by 5% in diameter with the corresponding increase in mass and gravity. This starts this year and it will be devastating but has happened many times before because all celestial spheres grow.The growth is in spurts.
The breakaway civilization are already on Mars and they got there because they include the folks who back engineered the antigravity ships. Most of Earth's gold is now on Mars and most of it's great art treasures and the best NASA scientists.

Universe always rewards courage. Universe always favors greater complexity. Humility can be faked but no one can advance without committing to humility. We are very small but very loved and we are nurtured as we climb the ladder of consciousness and realizing this should help us embrace true humility."The highest good is not to seek to do good, but to allow yourself to become good. "
Lao Tzu
We must become authentically good, not pretending to be good. We must be the real deal. We must allow our self to become good, buy accepting the consequences of being good, in peace. Some have called this "simplicity and purity".This is a very important achievement in conquering the self.

Concentration Camps in America - Exclusive Intelligence Examiner Report by Texe Marrs

Greetings citizens of the world,

Concentration camps in America,
Exclusive Intelligence Examiner Report by Texe Marrs,

Some nine years ago a French-Canadian reporter named Serge Monast called the ministry, desperate to speak with me personally. Mr. Monast stated he had come into possession of documents which proved the existence of a secret plan for a concentration camp system throughout North America. He sent them to me and, after a parallel investigation of my own, I became convinced the documents were authentic. Serge Monast was telling the truth. The horrible, horrible truth.
Not too long afterward, Serge Monast, a vigorous man in his 40s, died unexpectedly of a brief and mysterious illness. His friends suspected foul play, but there was no definite proof he was murdered. Just before he died, Serge wrote to tell me he would be contacting me soon to give me details of stunning new information he had discovered about the concentration camps, including a map pinpointing locations. Information which, Serge assured me, "will blow your mind."
I never received that information. Serge Monast died before he could get it to me. I made a promise back then that I would get to the bottom of this matter and report the truth to you, the dear readers of Power of Prophecy newsletter, who truly care for humanity and are concerned about the rapid growth of the Police State.

Now, after years of intensive research and investigation, I have just released my latest video, Gulag USA—Concentration Camps in America (Available in VHS or DVD). In this jaw-dropping new video, I present a mountain of new evidence and facts with many photographic materials. I encourage you to obtain a copy of this revealing and documented video. Judge the facts for yourself-and then act accordingly.
In Gulag USA, I examine and review the bloody and deadly historical record of concentration camps. Many believe the Nazis in the 1930s and 40s were the first to develop the systematic use of such camps. In fact, for over 150 years, genocidal concentration camps have been used to roundup, incarcerate, torture, and methodically massacre targeted "enemies of the state," "inferior races," or "class enemies."

Ron Paul Texas Straight Talk 7/29/13: A House Divided Over NSA Spying on Americans

A House Divided Over NSA Spying on Americans
by Ron Paul

Last week's House debate on the Defense Appropriations bill for 2014 produced a bit more drama than usual. After hearing that House leadership would do away with the traditional "open rule" allowing for debate on any funding limitation amendment, it was surprising to see that Rep. Justin Amash's (R-MI) amendment was allowed on the Floor. In the wake of National Security Agency (NSA) whistleblower Edward Snowden's revelations about the extent of US government spying on American citizens, Amash's amendment sought to remove funding in the bill for some of the NSA programs.

Had Amash's amendment passed, it would have been a significant symbolic victory over the administration's massive violations of our Fourth Amendment protections. But we should be careful about believing that even if it had somehow miraculously survived the Senate vote and the President's veto, it would have resulted in any significant change in how the Intelligence Community would behave toward Americans. The US government has built the largest and most sophisticated spying apparatus in the history of the world.

The NSA has been massively increasing the size its facilities, both at its Maryland headquarters and in its newly built (and way over-budget) enormous data center in Utah. Taken together, these two facilities will be seven times larger than the Pentagon! And we know now that much of the NSA's capacity to intercept information has been turned inward, to spy on us.

As NSA expert James Bamford wrote earlier this year about the new Utah facility: "The heavily fortified $2 billion center should be up and running in September 2013. Flowing through its servers and routers and stored in near-bottomless databases will be all forms of communication, including the complete contents of private emails, cell phone calls, and Google searches, as well as all sorts of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, and other digital "pocket litter." It is, in some measure, the realization of the "total information awareness" program created during the first term of the Bush administration—an effort that was killed by Congress in 2003 after it caused an outcry over its potential for invading Americans' privacy."

But it happened anyway.

Over the last week we have seen two significant prison-breaks, one in Iraq, where some 500 al-Qaeda members broke out of the infamous Abu Ghraib prison, which the US built, and another 1,000 escaped in a huge break in Benghazi, Libya -- the city where the US Ambassador was killed by the rebels that the US government helped put in power. Did the US intelligence community, focused on listening to our phone calls, not see this real threat coming?

Rep. Amash's amendment was an important move to at least bring attention to what the US intelligence community has become: an incredibly powerful conglomeration of secret government agencies that seem to view Americans as the real threat. It is interesting that the votes on Amash's amendment divided the House not on party lines. Instead, we saw the votes divided between those who follow their oath to the Constitution, versus those who seem to believe that any violation of the Constitution is justified in the name of the elusive "security" of the police state at the expense of liberty. The leadership -- not to my surprise -- of both parties in the House voted for the police state.

It is encouraging to see the large number of votes crossing party lines in favor of the Amash amendment. Let us hope that this will be a growing trend in the House -- perhaps the promise that Congress may once again begin to take its duties and obligations seriously. We should not forget, however, that in the meantime another Defense Appropriations bill passing really means another "military spending" bill. The Administration is planning for a US invasion of Syria, more military assistance to the military dictatorship in Egypt, and more drones and interventionism. We have much work yet to do.
