(WMR)—Multiple well-informed sources in Central and South America have told WMR that the heavily-armed and merciless Los Zetas narcotics cartel operating in Mexico is carrying out their destabilization efforts in Mexico with the assistance of elements of the U.S. Special Forces and Israel’s Mossad.

Most people only see the public faces of the Tea Party TTP (TTP): those doing televison interviews, appearing on the covers of magazines, waving from the steps of private jets at political rallies, and who spend the millions of dollars in tax-free donations they have raised; but who are the 15 million “patriots” who actually attend the thousands of local tea parties across the heartland of America? Answers were sought at the TPP’s American Policy Summit held during the last week of February in Phoenix, Arizona. Continue reading
We’re calling for a nationwide sick-out on March 30! A work-stoppage might FINALLY get the point across that WE are the people who run this country, NOT the people with the money and the privilege! Let’s see how they like it when things come to a screeching halt. Continue reading
The national corporate campaign to destroy America’s public sector unions has drawn first blood in Ohio. Continue reading
(WMR)—For some three decades, local residents near a top secret terrorist training base have reported on hearing explosions, seeing sudden flashes of light and night time flares, and noticing small planes and “black helicopters” arriving at and departing from a small airfield on the base. The airspace over the base is off-limits to unauthorized aircraft. Continue reading
For openers, this writer wonders why my Internet provider, Verizon Wireless, signed on as a major sponsor of The Daily, the new Apple iPad-only “newspaper” from Rupert Murdoch’s uber-right wing News Corp. This is the company that brought Fox News’ unfair and imbalanced reporting to us. Murdoch himself admitted he was trying to sway political agendas to the right. And this was the same Fox News that gave a whopping $1 million to the Republican Governor’s Association. Is anybody listening? Continue reading
As I was driving my car along the famed Corniche of the historic city of Alexandria to join the march calling for Mubarak to step down last week, I kept looking—or gazing if you like— at the nearly empty streets except from now and then scattered armed vehicles and tanks squatted beneath the silent buildings on the side of the road and it seemed as if I was driving across a deserted city and not the never go to sleep 5 millions dwellers-city I used to know. Continue reading
ALEXANDRIA, Egypt—What is happening now in Tahrir square is a revolution in the making with people from all around the world watching every minute. Continue reading
A recent North American defense ministers meeting was originally scheduled to be a trilateral gathering, but Mexico’s Secretary of Defense was unable to participate in the summit. Canada-U.S. talks focused on continental, hemispheric, as well as global defense issues. The meeting went a long way to further deepen bilateral security and military ties. It was also significant considering that Canada and the U.S. are currently negotiating an agreement that would work towards establishing a perimeter approach to security. Continue reading
Silvio Berlusconi is an internationally renowned figure, but not for his good reputation as an upright and respectable statesman, rather as a notorious man who can be called one of the most corrupt politicians of the world in all terms. Continue reading
BEIRUT — This observer tends to get a haircut about every four months whether I need it or not. But this morning I got more than a trim from my Hezbollah friend and barber, Abass, named after Abass ibn Ali, the brother of Hussein, both martyrs and heroes of the epic 680 A.D. internecine Muslim battle at Karbala in present day Iraq. Continue reading
In a recent article (“JFK and RFK: The Plots that Killed Them, The Patsies that Didn’t”), I cited the identifications of three officials of the CIA at the Ambassador Hotel when Bobby was shot, by Bradley Ayers, who knew all three, and by Wayne Smith, who knew one of them very well. Objections have been raised to these identifications by Jefferson Morely and David Talbot, who claim that they have disproven them. Their argument is based upon a fallacy known as “special pleading” by only citing part of the evidence, which does not satisfy the requirement of total evidence, which insists that reasoning be based upon all of the available relevant evidence. Moreover, since they fail to identify the parties in question, they did not actually disprove Ayers and Smith but, at best, have only raised doubts about them. Continue reading
Instilling the will to kill in Special Forces training is equally as important as teaching the skills to kill. Commandos are heavily indoctrinated in the rightness of using violence to maintain the US empire. It’s part of the esprit de corps, inseparable from the ethos of patriotism. Continue reading
