Reality Check: The African Region that Western Elites have Subjected to War Is Now Larger than the Entire US

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/the-daily-bell-top-logo310.jpg

“The entire upper half of Africa from the Ivory Coast to Somalia has been set aflame with violence and war. The geographical scale is staggering.  What has been set in motion is sure to destabilize Africa and the Middle East for decades to come.  Add up all the various states at the crest of Africa that have been either destabilized or subjected to a phony ‘youth rebellion’ and you end up with a geographical space as large or larger than the United States (maybe with Alaska thrown in).  Yes, that’s the size of real estate that’s been subjected directly to violence and regime change within the past TWO years!”

Criminalizing Photography

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/20120813-lens-platt-slide-Y0U9-articleInline3.jpg

“What we’re seeing is photographers being charged with disorderly conduct, trespass and obstruction of governmental administration for doing their job. I call it the catch and release program. Almost always the D.A. will drop the charges immediately. But in the meantime, the police have managed to stop the person from photographing.  It’s not just news photographers who should be concerned with this. Tourists taking pictures are being told by police, security guards and sometimes other citizens, ‘Sorry, you can’t take a picture here.’ When asked why, they say, ‘Well, don’t you remember 9/11?'”

A Brief History of False Flag Attacks: Or Why Government Loves State Sponsored Terror

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/kaboom.jpg

“False flag attacks occur when government engages in covert operations designed to deceive the public in such a way that the operations seem as if they are being carried out by other entities.  False flag terrorism is a favorite political tactic used by governments worldwide. They influence elections, guide national and international policy, and are cynically used to formulate propaganda and shape public opinion as nations go to war.”

Poland begins uncovering story of secret US detention center

“On an idyllic lake surrounded by woods and a double row of mesh-and-razor-wire fences about 100 miles north of Warsaw, there stands a secluded villa that the CIA once used to interrogate – and allegedly torture – top Al Qaeda suspects.  It’s the focal point for a Polish prosecutors’ top-secret probe into how their government tolerated rampant violations of international and Polish law.  Already Zbigniew Siemiatkowski, Poland’s former interior minister and intelligence chief, is charged with unlawful detention and corporal punishment for allowing the CIA to operate at Stare Kiejkuty from December 2002 to September 2003.”

Sanctions Will Kill Tens of Thousands of Iranians

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/antiwar_logo4.gif

“Officially, the sanctions are supposed to be ‘smart’ and ‘targeted,’ aiming only to hurt the Iranian government, particularly the Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps, the most powerful part of Iran’s military. But in reality, the most vulnerable members of Iranian society, namely, millions of ordinary Iranians, have suffered the most. Not only have they been hurt badly by the sanctions, but tens of thousands of them, if not more, will also lose their lives if the sanctions continue, even without being tightened further.  The emerging catastrophe will be an ethical and moral problem for the West for decades to come.”

Eric Margolis: The Cultural Revolution Still Haunts China

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/headshot4.jpg

“After a decade of civil strife and national madness, in 1976 the People’s Liberation Army and centrist reformers like Deng Xioping and the dying Zhou Enlai managed to wrest power away from the aging Mao, who was showing increasing signs of dementia and paranoia, and broke the Gang of Four. The arrest and isolation of Chongqing party boss Bo Xilai suggests the party leaders feared he might have planned to ignite another wave of Maoism among China’s youth. His failure to follow the party line was a major heresy.”

Portrait of a Drone Killer: ‘I Have a Duty, and I Execute My Duty’

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/thelrcblog-5001.gif

“The Pentagon — driven by ‘a near insatiable demand for drones’ — is training hundreds of operators to join the corps of more than 1,300 currently stationed at more than a dozen bases across the country. Surveillance drones operated by domestic police agencies are already plying the skies above us. Those robot aircraft can be upgraded to airborne weapons platforms, and they soon will. The people being trained to feel ‘no emotional attachment’ to foreigners designated enemies of the state will feel no particular burden when ordered to kill fellow Americans on that list.”

Syrian atrocity: Bodies of postal workers thrown from roof (GRAPHIC VIDEO)

“The video caused online outrage and heated debates on Twitter as to who the people committing the atrocity might be. The majority allege they are Free Syrian Army supporters who intentionally target civil servants backing the regime.  RT’s correspondent on the ground Oksana Boyko reports that around one-and-a-half million of the country’s civil employees have now become targets. Doctors, teachers and municipal workers risk kidnapping or assassination for simply doing their jobs.”
