The recent North American Leaders Summit in Mexico was seen as a perfect opportunity to try and kick-start the trilateral partnership. While there was no headline grabbers or major breakthroughs, the NAFTA partners still moved forward on some crucial issues that centered around North American competitiveness. They developed a shared set of priorities and established a roadmap for enhancing cooperation in areas such as trade, transportation, energy, as well as border facilitation. This includes creating a North American trusted traveler program, which is part of ongoing efforts to establish a fully integrated continental security perimeter. During separate bilateral meetings, Canada and Mexico also took steps towards strengthening political, economic and security ties. Continue reading →
(WMR)—Not since the massacre at a summer camp of social democratic Norwegian youth by the Israel-loving Norwegian neo-Nazi Anders Breivik has there been clearer evidence of the collusion between Zionists and neo-Nazis as the statement by the pro-Zionist U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt that the neo-Nazi Ukrainian political party Svoboda “played an extremely constructive role during these three months of demonstrations.” Continue reading →
Critics say ruling is reminiscent of legal justification for Japanese-American internment camps
A federal judge ruled Thursday that the NYPD’s secret spying on Muslims in schools, restaurants, and mosques with no evidence of wrongdoing is perfectly legal, and it was the media’s exposure of this surveillance that was the real cause of harm. The decision prompted outcry from civil rights and racial justice advocates. Continue reading →
(WMR)—The neoconservatives who continue to permeate the Obama administration in the persons of the foul-mouthed and ill-tempered Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland, National Security Adviser Susan Rice, and U.S. Ambassador to the UN Samantha Power, along with second- and third-tier functionaries, have decided on all-out covert warfare with the nations of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). This information has been passed to WMR by intelligence assets in the field in some of the most remote parts of the Asian land mass. Continue reading →
(WMR)—The Obama administration, like its predecessor, is doing everything possible to maintain the secrecy of the 28 pages of the 800-page congressional report on the intelligence failures surrounding the 9/11 attack. The report, titled, “Joint Inquiry Into Intelligence Community Activities Before and After the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001,” detailed the results of a congressional investigation of the events surrounding 9/11. But entirely redacted from the report are 28 pages dealing with specific sources of foreign support for the alleged 9/11 hijackers, fifteen of whom were Saudi nationals. Continue reading →

(WMR)—Following President Obama’s January 28 State of the Union address, New York Republican congressman Michael Grimm not only threatened to throw Michael Scotto, a reporter for NY1 news, over a balcony in the Cannon House Office building but threatened to “break him in half . . . like a boy.” Grimm was upset over Scotto asking Grimm about allegations of campaign malfeasance. Grimm told Scotto, “Let me be clear to you, you ever do that to me again I’ll throw you off this fucking balcony.” Continue reading →

It’s time to subpoena the Committee for Our Children’s Future
Far more insidious, more corrosive and dangerous than the Governor of New Jersey playing traffic warden is the story of Gov. Chris Christie’s secret meetings with a gaggle of billionaires––and the legality of the spending by the front organization set up following these hidden hugger-muggers. Continue reading →
In typical fashion for a member of the CIA’s Bush-Clinton-Obama network of U.S. political leaders who would have never reached their respective pinnacles of power, save for the fact that they were all groomed by the powers who run Langley, former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates is supposedly “telling all” in his book, “Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War.” Continue reading →
Canadian rock legend Neil Young has taken to the road with a mission. Sunday night, January 12, he laid down the gauntlet on national TV, calling the Canadian government “completely out of control” as he began his “Honour the Treaties” tour in Toronto. His goal is to help First Nations in their fight against the expanding tarsands projects in Alberta. To the government, “Money is number one. Integrity isn’t even on the map.” Continue reading →

Kagame has been a frequent guest at the Washington prayer breakfast. Continue reading →

(WMR)—U.S. National Security Adviser Susan Rice and her colleague, U.S. Ambassador to the UN Samantha Power, who can best be described as the “twin harpies” of U.S. interventionist foreign policy, have managed to turn back the clock to the Cold War in Europe, plunged a breakaway region of an African country after a long civil war into its own civil war, and forced the U.S. to deal with an Al Qaeda-led rebel faction which wants to turn Syria into an Islamic state. Continue reading →
(WMR)—WMR’s sources in India report that Indian and Nepalese authorities are growing increasingly concerned over the massive influx of Muslim immigrants, along with Wahhabist and Salafist clerics, into the Indo-Nepalese border region.

Creating a humanitarian crisis in Syria, whether real or fabricated, and holding the Syrian government responsible for it as a casus belli for foreign military intervention under the UN 2005 so-called “responsibility to protect” initiative was from the very eruption of the Syrian conflict the goal of the US-led “Friends of Syria’ coalition.

If you eat commercial US beef, pork or turkey, it was probably grown with ractopamine
Have you ever heard of ractopamine? Neither have most US food consumers though it is used in 80 percent of US pig and cattle operations. The asthma drug-like growth additive, called a beta-agonist, has enjoyed stealth use in the US food supply for a decade despite being widely banned overseas. It is marketed as Paylean for pigs, Optaflexx for cattle and Topmax for turkeys. Continue reading →

(WMR)—Being disingenuous, like the storied cat who ate the canary, comes natural to Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, especially in light of his current propaganda blitz designed to convince the world that Iranian centrist President Hasan Rouhani is not to be believed. Netanyahu and his global propaganda network of sayanim collaborators are working overtime to paint Rouhani as a fabulist when it comes to Iran’s willingness to scale back uranium enrichment, open up Iran’s nuclear facilities to unannounced inspections by teams from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), and other moves designed to ease crippling Western economic sanctions on Iran. Continue reading →
(WMR)—Ever since National Security Agency whistleblower Edward Snowden first began releasing information and documents and PowerPoint slides amassed on thumb drives by him before he fled the United States for Hong Kong and Moscow, the information flow about NSA’s super-secret surveillance programs directed against U.S. citizens and foreigners alike has been plagued with redactions. These redactions have been engineered by agreements between newspaper, magazine, and TV network editors, publishers, and managers, on one hand, and NSA, British Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), and Obama and Prime Minister David Cameron administration officials on the other. Continue reading →
